On Sunday, I packed my bags and leftDamak ... I caught a ride to the airport on abus run by the International Office for Mi-
gration, which handles resettlement for therefugees. Sitting behind me on the bus was a fam-ily from Beldangi I, destined for Canada. ... Themother, Pabitra Dulal, said none of the five familymembers had ever been on a plane. I asked howshe felt.
“What to say?” she said. She thought it would bea nice journey, but she was nervous, as they weregoing into the unknown. Her husband, GhanaShyan Subedi, also felt nervous, but said he wasexcited about the “many things we willsee from the plane.” Would he be ableto see animals? People? Huts? ...
On the plane, the family sat a fewrows behind me, with Dulal holdingher 2-year-old son, Stephen, on herlap. During the flight, I lookedback every once in a while to seehow they were doing. Theylooked wide-eyed, but calm.”

Jerome County eyes fourth vote for jail funding
By Ben BotkinTimes-News writer
JEROME — If at first you don’tsucceed, try, try, try again.
That’s fast becoming the mantraof Jerome County officials, who aremaking a fourth run at getting vot-ers to approve a bond issue for anew jail, possibly as soon as thisNovember.
Three earlier attempts for fund-ing approval have failed, starting inNovember 2009 and most recentlylast November.
Jerome County commissionersand sheriff’s officials met Mondayto discuss and plan the jail project.Officials say a new facility is need-ed to eliminate overcrowding andbring the county’s jail into themodern era.
County commissioners are lean-ing toward having the next bondelection in November, though that
date isn’t set in stone. First, they’llneed to pick a site for the jail and getmore specific estimates from con-struction companies on the costs ofa 120-bed facility.
That work will need to be com-pleted by the second week of Sep-tember for the election to happenin November, said CommissionChairman Charlie Howell.
If the county’s not ready by then,he said, the election’s date wouldbe moved to May 2012.
“I honestly still think it’s com-munication and presentation,”Howell said when asked about thecounty’s struggle to get the projectapproved.

Twin Falls mullsMeyerhoeffer torun golf course
By Nick ColtrainTimes-News writer
The Twin Falls City Councilvoted Monday to seek to bring onthe general manager of Buhl’scountry club to manage its city’sgolf course.
Steve Meyerhoeffer, an Idahonative, has run the Clear LakesCountry Club since 2000 andwas singled out for his flexibilityin course management options,including a flat lease of the TwinFalls Golf Club with possibleprofit sharing.
If negotiations with the citypan out, Meyerhoeffer would re-place outgoing city course golf
pro Mike Hamblin, who left thejob for a similar one at the BlueLakes Country Club. If negotia-tions with Meyerhoeffer don’tpan out, the city may begin theprocess with the search commit-tee’s No. 2 pick, Travis Hofland.
The YMCA was No. 3 on thecommittee’s list for possiblecourse management, but Coun-cilman Lance Clow said the com-mittee wasn’t very enthusiasticabout the organization.
The council will still need toformalize any agreements withMeyerhoeffer or whoever elsewins the job.

The council also asked citystaff to solicit proposals for anew city pool managementcompany.The YMCA has runthe city pool since 2002,which Clow said helpedstymie ballooning costswithout quite reducing them.
City staff and councilmembers said they haveheard interest from Gold’sGym about taking over thepool management, thoughthey expect more proposalswhen solicitations go out. Arepresentative from the gymsat through the meeting, butdid not speak publicly.
The 7-0 vote to seek man-agement proposals wasprefaced by council mem-bers saying they couldn’t seehow such a search couldhurt. There was some refer-ence to the cheaper propos-als brought back by PSI En-vironmental Systems Inc. ina similar situation last year,
when its waste managementcontract expired.
Councilman Will Kezelesaid he agreed with the needfor competition and that it isthe basis of capitalism.But headded that he hoped the city
government wouldn’t com-pete with private enterprise.
“I would hope city gov-ernment is working to getout of the golf and pool busi-ness,” he said, adding that itwould be a shame if a city-
subsidized pool competedwith the owner of the losingproposal.

enter in information andsync to their office’s datasystem.
“The funding is reallylimited, so we are focusedon getting the system goingfor inspections, and we arelooking into getting it on-line,” said Melody Bowyer,food program manager. “Itwill be up within the year.We are kind of doing it bypiecemeal.”
The cost of the comput-ers and of updating the on-line system was not avail-able Monday.
During a typical inspec-tion Monday, Jensen tooknotes with pen and paperthat he would later trans-fer to his computer. Fromthere, the information willautomatically go to a data-base for all health districtemployees to access.
Though different typesof establishments are ratedon different things, somerequirements affect themall. The most common vi-olation committed is themost dangerous one,Jensen said: refrigerationunits must stay at or below41 degrees. If they go anyhigher, bacteria can multi-ply in the food. On the oth-er hand, heated food mustbe at or above 135 degrees.
Any violation Jensencomes across can usuallybe corrected on the spot,
but critical items must bedealt with and document-ed within 10 days.
“We use this as an op-portunity to educate themon proper food safety,”Jensen said. “We don’twant to shut places down— just help them under-stand.”
He said accurate notesand documentation are vi-tal to his job and the busi-ness’s final report, so theadded technology will be abonus in the long run.
For the safety soldiers,the curious or the germa-phobic, the online reviewsmay be missed. ButBowyer said anyone cancome to the health dis-trict’s office and ask forinformation regarding acertain food establish-ment.
“People are going to gowhere they like to eat andmost places around hereare doing a pretty good job,”Jensen said. “It is mostlytiny things that we can cor-rect on-site.”

Romney kicks off second try for presidentBy Paul WestTribune Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON — Re-publican frontrunner MittRomney signaled his inten-tion to make jobs and theeconomy the focus of hiscampaign as he kicked offhis second try for presidentwith an attack on PresidentBarack Obama’s “failed’’policies.
With an empty NewHampshire football field as abackdrop, the former Mass-achusetts governor recordeda two-minute video an-nouncement Monday thatincluded nods toward themore conservative, tea partyelements of his party. Hiscampaign sent it to support-ers, then posted it online.
Romney finished behindJohn McCain in the 2008nomination contest, but re-cent polls show him the early
leader for 2012. In amove driven mainlyby the fundraisingcalendar, he filedcandidacy paperswith the FederalElection Commis-sion; a ceremonialdeclaration will comeby this summer.Romney is the second majorRepublican candidate to filepapers, behind former Min-nesota Gov.Tim Pawlenty.
The 64-year-old Romney,dressed casually in a darkjacket and checked sportsshirt, said Obama’s lack ofexperience in “the real econ-omy’’ is the reason his poli-cies haven’t worked. Thepresident and most of hisadvisers “just don’t knowhow jobs are created in theprivate sector,” he said.
Romney contrasted thatwith his own experience as aventure capitalist, which
helped provide himwith the personalwealth that has fu-eled his political ca-reer.
“Sometimes I wassuccessful and help-ed create jobs,” hesaid, “other times Iwas not.”
That acknowledgement,at the start of his run, ap-peared designed to inoculateRomney against renewedcriticism about large-scalelayoffs at companies takenover by his firm, Bain Capi-tal. It also pointed to the verydifferent set of issues thanhe faced four years ago,when the war in Iraq toppedthe agenda.
In his brief remarks, Rom-ney drew attention to NewHampshire, which stagesthe first primary, and Neva-da, the first western caucus.He is counting on victories
in both to survive expectedlosses in the early votingstates of Iowa and SouthCarolina, both dominated bysocial conservatives andevangelical voters who havenot warmed to Romney.
His announcement cameafter an unannounced visitto the University of NewHampshire.
Romney reached outrhetorically to the Republi-can right in the video, em-ploying a familiar tea partyreference to “the principlesof our Constitution” as thesource of American “great-ness,” a theme he repeatedfor emphasis three times.
Romney is considered tohave the deepest fundraisingnetwork of the potentialGOP contenders.
Among the next decisionsRomney will face is whetherto participate in the firstGOP debate next month.

Former Burley teacher faces up to 25 years in prison for sex crime
Brinkerhoff pleads guiltyBy Laurie WelchTimes-News writer
BURLEY — Former Burleyteacher Michael ScottBrinkerhoff pleaded guiltyMonday to felony sex abuseof a minor under 16 for al-legedly asking a junior highstudent to engage in sexualconduct online.
Brinkerhoff, 42, entered aplea agreement with theCassia County Prosecutor’sOffice that will dismiss a re-lated felony charge of entic-ing a child over the Internet.
He will be sentenced at 3p.m. June 7 in Cassia County5th District Court.
Brinkerhoff’s attorney,Keith Roark, said a writtenplea agreement hasn’t beencompleted, but prosecutorshave agreed to placeBrinkerhoff in the state’sretained jurisdiction pro-gram where he could un-dergo further evaluation. Ifhe earns a positive recom-mendation during the pro-gram, he could avoid jailtime.
Brinkerhoff faces a maxi-mum penalty of 25 years inprison and a $50,000 fine.He could also face restitu-tion and a civil penalty.Roark didn’t indicate the
length of the state’s recom-mended sentence.
“The sexual abuse chargedoesn’t allege any physicalcontact between Mr.Brinkerhoff and the allegedvictim in this case,” Roarksaid.“It does,however,allege— and Mr.Brinkerhoff is pre-pared to admit — that in anInternet conversation withthe victim in this case he didrequest or instruct her totouch herself. And that, in
fact to his knowledge, oc-curred.”
Judge Michael Crabtreequestioned Brinkerhoff onhis understanding of the pleaagreement and his under-standing that the court is notbound by the terms offered.
Crabtree said if the casewere to proceed to trial thestate would have to provethat Brinkerhoff engaged inthe acts to gratify his ownlust, passion or sexual desire,
or that of a third party.“That mental intent por-
tion is important,” he said.“Are you aware that elementthat must be proved in thiscase?”
Brinkerhoff said he was-n’t, but didn’t want to takeany further time to conferwith Roark.
Crabtree also askedBrinkerhoff if anything hadrecently happened in hispersonal life to cause him tobe deeply upset and affect histhinking regarding his plea.
“Besides this, no,”Brinkerhoff said.
Crabtree asked if anyonehad threatened or coercedhim into pleading guilty.
“No, Your Honor, just, it’sthe right thing to do,”Brinkerhoff said.
Crabtree said that bypleading guilty, Brinkerhoffwas also relinquishing hisrights to appeal based on anyissues in the case, except theright to appeal the length ofhis sentence.
Brinkerhoff will also losehis right to vote and ownfirearms, and will have toregister as a sex offender.

Sheriff Doug McFall saidthe site, wherever it’s lo-cated, would need at leastseven to 10 acres so there’sspace for any future growthneeds. Preliminary figuresshow that the cost of a 120-bed facility would be be-tween $8 million and $11million, he said.
In their discussion,county officials stressed adesire to keep the publicwell-informed of jail de-velopments.
“I think the public wouldlike to know exactly what
it’s going to cost them,” saidCommissioner Roger Mor-ley.
County officials said it’simportant for the public toknow the county’s numberof inmates and type of of-fenses for which they arejailed, adding that percep-tion issues have persistedthrough the process ofworking toward a new jail.
“It’s like we’re storingthem up for our delight,and that’s just not true,”said Commissioner CathyRoemer.

U.S. Senate to hear ‘downwinders act’By Blair KochTimes-News writer
A bipartisan group of U.S.senators wants to expandfederal compensation forpeople who became ill fromworking in uranium mines,living near debris left frommining or living near atomictest sites from the 1940s in-to the ’60s.
The Radiation ExposureCompensation Act Amend-ments Act of 2011 will be in-troduced today in the Senate.
Similar bills have been in-troduced yearly since 2007.
Sponsors include Idaho
Republican Sens. MikeCrapo and Jim Risch.
Companion legislation isbeing introduced in theHouse by Rep. Ben Ray Lu-jan, D-N.M.
Current RECA law payscancer victims in 21 coun-ties in Nevada, Utah andArizona. The amendmentswould expand the down-wind exposure area to sevenstates.
It would also widen com-pensation for qualifying,post-1971 uranium workersand equalize compensationfor all claimants to$150,000.The current max-
imum payment is $50,000.The bill also provides
funding for a study of thehealth impacts on familiesof uranium workers andresidents of uranium devel-opment communities.
The act authorizes $3 million for five years forresearch allocated to theNational Institute of Envi-ronmental Health Sciences,which would award grantsto universities and nonprof-its to carry out the research.
“I recognize the burdenplaced upon cancer patientsand their families to pay forthe expensive regimen oftreatments this disease re-quires. Passage of this legis-lation is the first step inhelping Idahoans get thecare they need,” said Crapo,who has long supported thebill’s passage.

More than $6,500 will gointo the downtown TwinFalls’ kiosks to bring themout of 2009 — the currentyear of calendars plasteredon them, and a stickingpoint for downtown con-sultant Mark Rivers.
“I think it’s absolutelyparamount for our down-town community to show acertain liveliness and showthat we are contemporaryand up to speed and stan-dards as I’m out there try-ing to attract new develop-ment and investment,”Rivers told the city UrbanRenewal Agency board at itsMonday meeting. “I can’tbring people into town andsay, ‘Hey, come on, open upa new business, buy a newbuilding, do somethinggreat here in downtown,’when we’re not doing littlethings. I mean, we still have2009 calendars on thekiosks.”
The board voted unani-mously for the following:$3,331 for nine posters,frames, graffiti protectorsand community tack boards,and up to $3,250 for newpaint on the kiosks anddowntown benches.
Rivers, a $5,000-a-month consultant on revi-talizing downtown, saidwork on the kiosks reflects aholistic view of downtownrevitalization and beautifi-cation. He said other down-town merchants are startingto gear up spring landscap-ing, and he’s also workingwith a landscaper for addi-tional work.
Many of the board mem-bers praised the effort, withLarry Hall saying the recentdowntown activity willbring “an attitude shift”about downtown.
The board and Rivers saidefforts to spruce up thekiosks also play into the
URA’s distribution of theremaining Business Im-provement District cash tocreate a matching fund toimprove downtown fa-cades.
The board unanimouslyapproved committee rec-ommendations for facadeimprovements for Susan’sAntiques, the O’DunkensBuilding, Times-News/Magicvalley.com, Oben-chain Insurance and EscapeSalon.
Melinda Anderson, URAexecutive director, said shehas recently receivedenough applications to po-tentially drain the remaining$54,500 in the first-come,first-served matching fund.

Commemoration,not celebration forCivil War’s 150th
FORT SUMTER NA-TIONAL MONUMENT,S.C. (AP) — Somber periodmusic, flickering candle-light and booming cannonswill usher in the nation’sobservance of the 150th an-niversary of the Civil War.
The opening salvo of thatwar that began inCharleston Harbor will berecreated Tuesday. The warbegan before dawn on April12, 1861, with the start of aConfederate bombardmentof Union-held Fort Sumterin Charleston Harbor. Theconflict ended four yearslater with the surrender ofConfederate forces in Vir-ginia on April 9, 1865.
“We’re very clear wedon’t see this as a celebra-tion but rather as a sombertime,” Tim Stone, the su-perintendent of the FortSumter National Monu-ment said Monday. “Weknow that over the courseof the four years of the CivilWar 600,000 lives werelost. It’s a very tragicevent.”
Tuesday’s commemora-tion of the first shots wasset to begin with a brief,pre-dawn concert of peri-od music on Charleston’sBattery entitled “When Je-sus Wept.” Then a star shellwill explode over the fort,signaling the start for sev-eral hundred re-enactors —manning cannon aroundthe harbor — to re-enactthe bombardment. Uniontroops in the fort surren-
dered after more than 30punishing hours of Con-federate fire.
Re-enactors portrayingConfederate units arecamping at Fort Moultrieon Sullivans Island, whileUnion re-enactors are inSumter this week. Theyplan to recreate the Unionsurrender to Confederatetroops on Thursday.
Historian Rick Hatchersaid the bombardment did-n’t cause any deaths, buttwo Union soldiers died ofwounds suffered when asalute was fired during thesurrender ceremony.
Stone said the NationalPark Service sees the an-niversary as an opportunityfor new generations to learnthe story of the bloody con-flict.
“We hope that in the Na-tional Park Service thatmanages many of the greatCivil War sites — Gettys-burg, Chickamauga, Chat-tanooga, Antietam and, ofcourse Fort Sumter — weprovide the visiting publicthe opportunity to experi-ence the history of thoseevents. We try to focus onthe history and let the visi-tors take away the messagethey want.”
The events this week in-clude living historydemonstrations focusingon the role of blacks andwomen during the war.There will be sessions onperiod music, medicineand cooking of the era.

Students launch suicide awarenessproject at Lewis-Clark State College
LEWISTON (AP) — Agroup of students at Lewis-Clark State College are hop-ing to stir awareness andpublic conversation aboutsuicide by posting dozens oflife-sized, human silhou-ettes all around the Lewistoncampus Tuesday.
Organizers say the 99 sil-houettes cut from stark,white cardboard are intend-ed to represent those whohave taken their lives andideally generate a deeperdiscussion on campus abouta subject considered tabooand uncomfortable to many.
The project is the idea ofthe campus chapter of theActive Minds club, a nation-wide organization focusedon mental health issues forcollege students.
“It’s hard for people to talkabout,’’ Sabrina Wakefield,28, a social work student andmember of the nationalgroup, told the LewistonTribune. “It’s that pull-yourself-up-by-your-boot-straps mentality. So a lot ofpeople don’t say anythinguntil (thoughts of suicide)have really progressed.’’
Suicide has long been achallenge among mental andpublic health experts in Ida-ho. According to the SuicidePrevention Action Networkof Idaho, suicide is the sec-ond leading cause of deathfor Idahoans between the
age of 15 and 34 and formales age 10-14.
In 2009, 307 people com-pleted suicide in Idaho, a 22percent increase over 2008,and a 40 percent increaseover 2007.
With those kinds of fig-ures, Wakefield and fellowclub members DouglasCruthirds and Kat Mewessay it makes sense to take
part in the Active Minds’Send Silence Packing pro-gram. The campaign sendshundreds of backpacks thatbelonged to students whokilled themselves to cam-puses, where they are dis-played as a visual reminderof the effect of student sui-cide.
But there is a long waitinglist for the backpacks, and
bigger campuses are typical-ly picked over smaller col-leges.
So the Lewis-Clark StateCollege students startedtheir own campaign, substi-tuting the silhouettes for thebackpacks. The silhouetteswill be posted at the studentunion, activity center, li-brary and other locations oncampus.

99 cardboard cutouts that will be displayed throughout the campus in Lewiston on Tuesday to promote
suicide prevention awareness.
Wolf proposal sparksmaneuvering in Congress
BILLINGS, Mont. (AP)— The fate of legislation tolift federal protections forendangered gray wolvesremained unclear lateMonday. Environmental-ists were seeking to derailthe proposal even as somelawmakers pushed tobroaden its reach.
Members of Wyoming’sCongressional delegationsaid they were seeking toinclude their state in abudget bill rider thatwould allow wolf huntingin Idaho and Montana.Representatives of the ad-
vocacy group Defenders ofWildlife pledged to fightany wolf legislation “untilit’s a done deal.”
Western lawmakers onSaturday announced theprovision to revoke thewolf’s endangered statusacross most of the North-ern Rockies. That came thesame day a judge struckdown a proposed wolf set-tlement between the Oba-ma administration andsome wildlife advocates.
Details on the budget billwere to be released lateMonday night.
Effort to recall Lunafaces tough hurdleBy John MillerAssociated Press
BOISE — Education ac-tivists seeking to recall thesuperintendent of publicinstruction over his educa-tion reform package filedtheir first 20 signaturesMonday from registeredvoters.
The Committee to RecallTom Luna also aims to oustSen. Mitch Toryanski andRep. Julie Ellsworth, bothRepublicans from Boise, fortheir support of Luna’s edu-cation package.
To succeed in the push foran Aug. 30 special election,the group must submit158,107 valid signatures inthe next 2½ months to thesecretary of state’s office.
Even if they succeed ingetting the measure on aballot, they would have tosecure at least 268,852 votesin favor of ousting Luna, ac-cording to Idaho law.
That is the number ofvotes that Luna received inthe Nov. 2, 2010, electionwhen he beat Stan Olsonwith 60.5 percent of the voteto secure a second term.
The 20 votes submitted
Monday marked thethreshold to get the petitiondrive certified.
Campaign organizerNancy Berto of MountainHome said Luna ran lastNovember claiming Idahoschools were doing wellthen introduced his educa-tion reforms that finallycleared the 2011 Legislaturelast week. “It’s a bait andswitch,” said Berto, whostarted her campaign inFebruary. “He did not men-tion this last November, be-fore the election.”
After Berto’s group ralliedin the Capitol, Luna’s officeresponded that he was con-fident of fending off the re-call.
A separate move is underway to place a voter referen-dum on the 2012 ballot torepeal the education re-forms that take effect thismonth.
“The people of Idahospoke in November andmade it clear who theywanted to serve as state su-perintendent and the direc-tion they wanted the publiceducation system to go,”said Luna spokeswomanMelissa McGrath.
AROUND THE NATIONWASHINGTON, D.C.
Cuts from budgetdeal target nearlyevery agency
The largest domestic spendingcut in U.S. history will upendalmost every federal agency andslash programs dealing withhealth care, housing aid and edu-cation, but give the Pentagon anextra $5 billion.
The measure, which was stillbeing drafted Monday night,would achieve $38 billion inreductions over the remaining sixmonths of the 2011 fiscal year, asthe White House and congres-sional leaders agreed late Friday.It would end, at least for now, thethreat of a government shutdown.
House Speaker John A.Boehner, R-Ohio, may be forced torely on Democrats to pass the bill,however. Dozens of Republicansargue that the compromise doesnot adequately cut programs andservices.
“Make no mistake: I oppose thisnegotiated deal,” Rep. MicheleBachmann, R-Minn., founder ofthe House Tea Party Caucus, wroteon her Twitter account. She want-ed deeper cuts and conservativepolicy priorities, including elimina-tion of funds for the health careoverhaul.
IOWA
Warning preventedinjuries in twister
MAPLETON — It seemed like aMapleton Miracle. A tornado withwinds exceeding 130 mph bar-reled through this small Iowatown, flattening whole blocks anddestroying 100 homes.
When the storm passed, morethan half the town had been lev-eled. But the most serious injurywas a broken leg.
Storm spotters who trackedthe approaching twister werebeing credited Monday with giv-ing residents a crucial 15-minutewarning, allowing most people totake shelter and preventing thekind of tornado disaster that killedfour teens at a Boy Scout campnear here in 2008.
ARIZONA
Court won’t lift stayon immigration law
PHOENIX — A federal appealscourt on Monday refused to lift astay blocking major parts ofArizonaís immigration law fromtaking effect and said the federalgovernment is likely to be able toprove the controversial law isunconstitutional.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court ofAppeals turned down an appealfiled by Gov. Jan Brewer. She hadasked the appeals court to lift aninjunction imposed by a federaljudge in Phoenix the day beforethe law was to take effect on July29, 2010.
The U.S Justice Departmentsued to block the law, saying itviolates the U.S. Constitutionbecause enforcing immigrationlaw is a federal issue.
U.S. District Court Judge SusanBolton issued an injunction pre-venting four major parts of the lawfrom going into effect pending atrial. Monday’s ruling by the three-judge appeals court panel upheldthat injunction.
NEW YORK
Drivers cutting back on gas as prices rise
Soaring gas prices are startingto take a toll on American driv-ers. Across the country, peopleare pumping less into the tank,reversing what had been a steady
increase in demand for fuel. Forfive weeks in a row, they havebought less gas than they did ayear ago.
Drivers bought about 2.4 mil-lion fewer gallons for the week ofApril 1, a 3.6 percent drop fromlast year, according toMasterCard SpendingPulse,which tracks the volume of gassold at 140,000 service stationsnationwide.
The last time Americans cutback so much was in December,when snowstorms forced peopleto stay home.
Before the decline, demandwas increasing for two months.Some analysts had expected thetrend to continue because theeconomic recovery was pickingup, adding 216,000 jobs inMarch.
More bones foundon New York beach
WANTAGH — Suspectedhuman remains were found in twolocations along a remote NewYork beach highway Monday,bringing to 10 the number ofpotential victims of a possibleserial killer.
The discovery came as policeexpanded a search from LongIslandís Suffolk County westwardinto the Jones Beach area ofNassau County, just over the bor-der from New York City. Theexpanded search was promptedby Suffolk’s discovery in the pasttwo weeks of four sets of unidenti-fied human remains; the bodies offour women who worked asCraigslist escorts were found inthe same area in December, lead-ing authorities to suspect thatthey may be contending with aserial killer.

If You Did Not Receive An Invitation...
THIS MAY BE FOR YOU!
AAbipartisan group of congressmen fromIdaho and Montana, led by RepublicanRep. Mike Simpson, did what they hadto do last week: They got language re-moving wolves from the endangered
species list included in the budget deal that averteda shutdown of the federal government.
If Congress approves the final language of thebill and President Obama signs it, gray wolves inIdaho and Montana will be stripped of Endangered
Species Act protection andput under state manage-ment.
As they should be.Yet it’s too bad it had to
come to this. Secretary ofthe Interior Ken Salazarpainstakingly brokered adeal between the U.S. Fishand Wildlife Service and 10conservation groups thatwould have handed wolfmanagement back to Idahoand Montana. U.S. DistrictJudge Donald Molloy re-jected it on Saturday.
One of the reasons theenvironmental groupsagreed to Salazar’s com-promise was hope that a fa-vorable court decisionwould provide greater pro-tection for wolves. Thosesafeguards are not expectedto be in the budget bill.
Salazar’s proposed set-tlement effectively askedMolloy to reverse his previ-ous rulings on the matter.Last August, the Montana
judge faulted the Fish and Wildlife Service for a2009 decision that removed wolves from the en-dangered list in Montana and Idaho but not inneighboring Wyoming. He said decisions aboutthe ESA should be based on science and not on po-litical boundaries, such as state lines.
The Idaho Department of Fish and Game man-aged wolves in Idaho from 2006 until last October,when Gov. C.L. “Butch” Otter handed the job backto the USFWS. Idaho’s first-and-only wolf hunt-ing season lasted from September 2009 until April2010.
Fish and Game, under intense political pressure,handled wolf management adroitly, in our opinion.Contrary to fears of environmentalists, popula-tions of the predators didn’t collapse as a conse-quence of the wolf hunt.
We see no reason why the agency wouldn’t doadmirably if it gets a second chance to managewolves.
Although we think Simpson and the wolf delist-ing measure’s Senate sponsor, Jon Tester, D-Mont., did the right thing, the best way to resolvethis explosive, deeply emotional issue would havebeen at the bargaining table.

IIn this digital age, speechhas been globalized justas surely as commerce.
That’s one of the lessonsto be taken from the trou-bling sequence of events inwhich a tiny Floridachurch’s distasteful publici-ty stunt of burning a Qurantriggered five days of protestand mob violence acrossAfghanistan. As of lastweek, more than 20 peoplehad been killed, and thehand of our Taliban antago-nists has been strengthened.
Terry Jones, you may re-call, is the anti-Islam pastorof a Gainesville fundamen-talist church with a congre-gation of about 30, whogained international notori-ety and hours of press atten-tion last fall by threateningto burn a Quran on the Sept.11 anniversary. After appealsfrom, among others, Presi-dent Obama and Gen. DavidH. Petraeus, the U.S. com-mander in Afghanistan,Jones relented. Last month,however, he decided to holda mock “trial” of Islam’sholy book that ended withits burning.
This time, the Americannews media simply ignoredJones’ crude cabaret of big-otry, but a video made itsway onto the Internet. Then,for reasons that remain un-clear, Afghan PresidentHamid Karzai refused to letthe provocation pass. OnMarch 24, he issued a newsrelease demanding that theUnited States “bring to jus-tice the perpetrators of thiscrime.”
On Thursday, he gave aspeech condemning theburning and demandingJones’ arrest. The next day,deadly rioting erupted afterFriday prayers in Afghanmosques. Sunday, in a
meeting with Petraeus andU.S. Ambassador KarlEikenberry, Karzai demand-ed that Congress pass a res-olution condemning Jones.
For their part, both Oba-ma and Petraeus unequivo-cally condemned Jones’desecration of the Quran,though the president alsocalled the killings that fol-lowed “an affront to humandecency and dignity.”
Others have raised thequestion of whether ourconception of constitution-ally protected speech needsto adjust itself to an age inwhich words spoken inGainesville can have deadlyimpact in Mazar-i-Sharif.Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., for example, wantsCongress to explore ways tolimit now-protected expres-sions, such as Jones’.
“Free speech is a greatidea, but we’re in a war,” hesaid.“During World War II,we had limits on what youcould do if it inspired the en-emy.”
Graham, who wields con-siderable influence as a for-mer military lawyer, said hewants to do “anything wecan to push back here inAmerica against acts likethis that put our troops atrisk.”
Obviously, there havebeen necessary wartime re-
straints on speech, butthey’ve always involved re-strictions on transmittinginformation, such as troopmovements. What Jones didis luridly offensive, but itamounts to an expression ofopinion. Blasphemy is pro-tected by the 1st Amend-ment, and any attempt tomake it otherwise — howev-er well-intended — is a pre-scription for disaster.
Still others have won-dered whether it might bepossible to apply the “fight-ing words” exception to theFirst Amendment to casessuch as Jones’ stunt, whichseemed almost certain toprovoke a deadly responsehalf a world away. In its 1942ruling in Chaplinsky v. NewHampshire, the U.S.Supreme Court defined thatexception in a way thatcould be construed to coverJones’ desecration of theQuran:
“There are certain well-defined and narrowly limit-ed classes of speech, theprevention and punishmentof which have never beenthought to raise any consti-tutional problem. These in-clude ... ’fighting words’ —those which by their veryutterance inflict injury ortend to incite an immediatebreach of the peace. It hasbeen well observed that such
utterances are no essentialpart of any exposition ofideas, and are of such slightsocial value as a step to truththat any benefit that may bederived from them is clearlyoutweighed by the social in-terest in order and morality.”
The problem is that, eversince Chaplinsky, the courthas narrowed the scope ofthe fighting words excep-tion, holding that it can’t beused, for example, to re-strain flag burners. More-over, any attempt to extendthe audience whose sensi-bilities must be weighed be-yond our borders attenuatesthe exception beyond rea-son. What, in this instance,of the hundreds of millionsof Muslims who were notincited to violence by Jones’provocation?
The issues raised by theseevents are not a challenge toour conception of freespeech, but to our collectiveconscience. The questionthat ought to be asked isn’twhether the wretched Jones’repellant theater is protectedspeech, but why the UnitedStates continues to produceas many people who speakand act as he does aboutMuslims?

IIdon’t know about you,but I had a hard timestomaching the sight of
Jim Calhoun holding thechampionship trophy afterthe final game of the NCAAmen’s basketball tourna-ment. Not because it was alousy game (though it was),but because Calhoun, thepugnacious coach of theUniversity of Connecticut“program” — as the big-money Division I teams arecalled — shouldn’t havebeen allowed anywherenear the gym. Just weeksearlier, the NCAA had sanc-tioned him for “failing tocreate an atmosphere ofcompliance” with its re-cruiting rules. To put itmore bluntly: UConncheated. Among the pun-ishments meted out was athree-game suspension forCalhoun.
But this is the NCAAwe’re talking about, an or-ganization that bends overbackward to accommodatebig-time basketball schoolslike Connecticut that driveTV ratings, and marqueecoaches like Calhoun, who,with his $2.3 million salary,is the highest-paid stateemployee in Connecticut.March Madness was rightaround the corner, so Cal-houn’s suspension was (ofcourse!) deferred until next
season, allowing him tocoach the team during thetournament. One of his ownplayers described theschool’s penalties as “a slapon the wrist.”
Shortly after Calhounwas handed his punish-ment, another member ofan NCAA.Division I pro-gram was also suspended —in his case, for six games.But he wasn’t a multimil-lionaire coach. Rather, hewas 19-year-old PerryJones III, a talented, 6-foot-11, African American fresh-man at Baylor University.
Was Jones allowed to de-lay his suspension? Surelyyou jest. The NCAA sus-pended him literally hoursbefore the team’s confer-ence tournament. WithoutJones, Baylor lost big.
That Baylor’s seasonended on such a sour note ishardly the tragedy here, ofcourse. What is infuriatingare the different ways Jonesand Calhoun were treated,especially when you look atwhat they did. In trying toland a prized recruit, Cal-
houn and UConn broke therules egregiously and re-peatedly. Jones’s maincrime was that he is poor.
Jones was in 10th gradewhen he supposedly brokethe NCAA’s rules. (That’sright. You can break NCAA.rules years before you be-come part of the NCAA.)His mother, a cafeteriaworker, has a heart condi-tion so serious that she willlikely need a transplant.Sometimes she’s confinedto a wheelchair, causing herto miss work. During onesuch period, she got behindon her rent.
Three times, she askedJones’ AAU coach, whomshe’d known for years, tolend her $1,200 to pay therent. Each time, she repaidthe loan as soon as she gother paycheck. That, believeit or not, is Jones’ transgres-sion.
Jones says he had no ideahis mother was borrowingmoney to pay the rent,which is completely believ-able. If you needed a short-term loan to keep from get-ting evicted, would you tellyour teenage son? Yet theNCAA says that because shegot the money from thecoach, Jones was getting abenefit not available tononathletes.
(Jones’ second transgres-
sion was going to a presea-son Dallas Cowboys gamewith that same coach. TheNCAA declared this a $500benefit and has demandedthat he donate $500 tocharity to make amends. Itdoes not say where he issupposed to find the mon-ey.)
I asked Stacey Osburn, anNCAA spokeswoman, howa player could be held re-sponsible for somethingdone without his knowl-edge. I asked her why Joneshad to sit while Cam New-ton, the star quarterback athighly ranked Auburn, wasallowed to continue playingafter it was discovered thathis father had tried to auc-tion off his son’s talents tothe highest bidder. I askedher why five players fromOhio State were allowed toplay in the lucrative SugarBowl this year after they hadbeen caught selling OSUparaphernalia and pocket-ing the money — and whytheir coach got only a two-game suspension, eventhough he knew what theyhad done and said nothing.
She wouldn’t give me astraight answer.“Every sit-uation is different” is thebest she could do.

LETTERS TO THE EDITORLawmakers: Focus onnuclear health threat
In the headline story(Times-News, Sunday,April 3) “Idaho’s top 10 un-healthy counties,” we findButte County, with 2,764inhabitants, is “the sickli-est in Idaho, ranking deadlast in the state in morbidi-ty.” Could such alarmingnews be due to the fact thatthese citizens live in “Thecounty that contains thesprawling Idaho NationalLaboratory,” home of theAdvanced Test Reactor,built in 1967 and deemed,at the time, isolatedenough from real peoplethat it didn’t need the safe-ty of a “containment” inthe event of a release of “its1 billion curie radioactiveinventory?” (Idaho FallsPost Register, March 27,2011). The ATR is almost 45years old, and we can’t relyon the seismic upgrades.
Butte County will also bethe future home of a repro-cessing plant owned by theFrench government’s nu-clear power company, Are-
va. The plant will reprocessspent commercial nuclearfuel rods —tons of them.The even more highly ra-dioactive waste from thisprocess will remain in Ida-ho, slowly leaking into theEastern Snake PlainAquifer. These rods are thesame as the ones close to ameltdown at the Fukushi-ma Dai’ichi plant in Japan,the ones releasing 1,500millisieverts of radiationevery hour, the ones beingcooled and stored aroundthe world in unsafe, over-crowded pools of water. Wehave solid evidence there isno safe way to store nuclearwaste. It is irresponsible toproduce more of it.
When the Rancho SecoNuclear Power Plant inSacramento, Calif., was fi-nally decommissionedmany years ago, the inci-dence of birth defects inSacramento County de-creased significantly, aftera steady increase duringthe years it operated. In-stead of further limitingabortions, our legislatorsshould limit the menace to
our health in Butte County,Idaho.

While I may not agreewith the Democrats’ ployto drag out the legislativesession since it costs$30,000 per day, I do total-ly understand and relate tothe frustration they feel to-ward most of their fellowlegislators for not listeningto their constituents andfor making no attempt tofind more money to reducecuts to the state budget.
It’s amazing how Rep.Erik Simpson can say Ida-hoans showed their intentby voting for Republicansin November, but then theRepublicans choose to ig-nore these same voterswhen they write thousandsof letters to each legislatorclearly expressing theirviews about education andMedicaid and their willing-ness to raise taxes on ciga-rettes and prison fines.
These legislators and thegovernor took the standfrom the beginning thatthere was no way to retainthe current budget andthus refused to considerany proposals that wouldhave raised extra revenue.They decided the generalpopulace did not under-stand the bills that werepresented and so refused tolisten to the thousands ofpeople who sent emails,made phone calls and trav-eled to Boise to expresstheir views.
It is a long time until thenext elections, but Ida-hoans, I hope you will re-member that the governor,state superintendent ofschools and most of ourlegislators refused to listento their constituents andthat you not vote thesepeople back into office. Re-publican Party, I hope youstart looking now for trust-worthy people who will ac-tually represent the peopleand start encouragingthem to run for office.

OOne hundred and fiftyyears ago today,onApril 12,1861,the
first shots of the Civil Warwere fired.A century and ahalf later,the issue of racestill haunts us.
Back then,most everyoneunderstood that America’sbloodiest war — more than623,000 dead — had its rootsin race.But race is not a sub-ject Americans like to thinkabout anymore.At everyturn,prominent voices try topretend that since we’veachieved a colorblind society,we can forget all that old un-pleasantness.
Indeed,some — includingVirginia Gov.Robert F.Mc-
Donnell,when he proclaimedConfederate History Monthlast April — have tried to pre-tend that the Civil War was-n’t really about slavery,just“states’rights.”Such willfulignorance tosses aside thefact that the right the Con-federate states fought to pre-serve was the right to ownother human beings — hu-man beings whose skin wasblack.
Electing a black presidentwas seen by some as proofthat we’ve put all that behindus,but the race-baitingstarted even before PresidentObama’s inauguration.It’sranged from the relativelysubtle (books from right-wing scholars tracing the“rage”of this almost preter-naturally calm president to a“Kenyan anti-colonial”worldview) to the downrightcrude (depictions of Obamain African tribal dress,with abone through his nose).
And when someone pointsthis out,what happens? The“race is not an issue”crowdhowls about “playing therace card.”So last year,when
the NAACP condemned“racist elements”within theTea Party movement,U.S.News and World Reportcolumnist Peter Roff com-pared the group to infamoussegregationists Lester Mad-dox and “Bull”Connor.Pun-dit George Will called theresolution “left-wing Mc-Carthyism.”So apparentlythe folks depicting Obamawith a bone through his nosearen’t racist,but those callingthem out are.Somewhere,George Orwell is smiling.
The unfortunate truth isthat race does still matter inAmerican society.While civilrights laws got rid of the mostovert segregation,the effects
of our nation’s long history ofdiscrimination — against notonly blacks but also Latinos,Asians,Indians and others —are still vividly apparent incommunities of color.Com-pared to whites,people ofcolor remain far more likelyto be unemployed,to havelittle or no accumulatedwealth and savings,and farless likely to own their ownhome,to pick a few obviousindicators.
Current and proposedpolicies will only exacerbatethese differences.Congressrecently gave the very rich an$11.5 billion-a-year break onestate taxes,while pendingbudget cuts threaten assis-
tance that helps the poor feedtheir families and keep theheat on during cold wintermonths.
In his second inaugural ad-dress,President Lincolnurged America to “bind upthe nation’s wounds,”and doso “with malice toward none;with charity for all.”A centu-ry and a half later,we woulddo well to heed his words.Sofar,we haven’t quite man-aged it.
Orson Aguilar is executivedirector of The GreenliningInstitute, www.greenlin-ing.org. He wrote this com-mentary for McClatchy-Tribune News Service.
SSometimes you really dowant to tell the medicalprofession to just make
up its mind.We got word last week that
estrogen therapy,which wasbad,is good again.Possibly.In some cases.
This was not quite as con-fusing as the news last yearthat calcium supplements,which used to be very good,are now possibly bad.Al-though maybe not.And thejury’s still out.
Or the recent federal studythat suggested women betold to stop checking theirbreasts for lumps.Or the rec-ommendations on when toget a mammogram,whichseem to fluctuate betweenevery five years and every fiveminutes.
We certainly want every-one to keep doing studies.But it’s very difficult to be acivilian in the world of sci-ence.
“It’s very difficult to be awoman,”said Dr.Leslie Fordof the National Cancer Insti-tute wryly.
Back in the day,estrogenwas prescribed only forwomen who were experienc-ing serious problems withmenopause.Then a 1966book called Feminine Forev-er argued that estrogen ther-apy was good for almostevery middle-aged female onthe planet who wanted toavoid morphing into a crone.The idea grew in popularityeven after evidence mountedthat the author had been paidby an estrogen manufacturer.
“The mantra among gy-necologists was: As soon asyou got to be 49,almost au-tomatically put women onestrogen.It was supposed tobe a fountain of youth,”saidFord.
To reduce the danger ofuterine cancer,estrogen wasmixed with progestin and theresult was,among manyother wonderful things,sup-posed to lower the risk ofheart disease.Then a reportfrom the Women’s HealthInitiative,a long-runningstudy by the National Insti-tutes of Health,found that itdid no such thing.Also,itraised the risk of breast can-cer.
“It’s been a real cultureshift for gynecologists,”saidFord.
Now comes a new study —from the very same Women’sHealth Initiative — that ap-pears to show that for somewomen,estrogen alone mayactually reduce the risk ofbreast cancer and heart at-tack.As long as you take itwhen you’re in your 50s.
“It’s ‘Back to the Future,’”said Dr.Emily Jungheim ofWashington UniversitySchool of Medicine,who co-authored an editorial raisinga red flag about the report.
The new findings,whichcome with many qualifica-tions,apply only to womenwho’ve had a hysterectomy.But that’s quite a population;
about one-third of all Amer-ican women have theiruterus removed at somepoint in their lives.
You cannot contemplatethis information for too longwithout asking whether themedical profession has a ten-dency to get carried away.
“There’s a pill for every ill,”said Dr.Sidney Wolfe,direc-tor of the Public CitizenHealth Research Group andthe co-author of Worst Pills,Best Pills: A Consumer’sGuide to Avoiding Drug-In-duced Death or Illness.
He worries a lot aboutovermedication.“There’sjust a massive overprescrib-ing in this country,”he said.“Also elsewhere.Francecomes to mind.”
Finally,we have foundsome part of medicine inwhich our system is as effi-cient as France’s.
Americans should knowby now that you can’t put apill in your mouth withoutrisk.Television is full ofcommercials for wonderdrugs that will perk up yourspirits,soothe your allergiesor lower your cholesterol,improving life altogether ex-cept in the cases where theylead to vivid dreams,suicidalthoughts,hair loss,stabbingpains or sudden death.
But it still feels as if weneed to be on guard againstmedical overoptimism.“Doctors are far moreknowledgeable about thebenefits of drugs than therisks,”said Wolfe.There isn’talways much talk about thepossible downside of drugson which all the evidence isyet to come in,like many fer-tility treatments.
Wolfe believes that mostdoctors prefer writing pre-scriptions to having lengthydiscussions with their pa-tients about things like long-term behavior modificationtherapy.My own theory isthat they just tend to want tosatisfy their patients.
I once had a gynecologistwho put me on estrogentherapy at age 49,when I hadno medical complaints,and Istill remember how pleasedhe was to be giving me thiswonderful drug that wouldstave off so many undesir-able effects of aging.
I did get breast cancer,al-though it was not a major-league case.Obviously,Ishould have asked morequestions.But I don’t blamethe doctor,who seemed tohave the best of intentions.Actually,I don’t blame any-one.Except maybe the guywho wrote that FeminineForever book.

GREGG MIDDLEKAUFF’S QUOTE OF THE DAY
“Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always
remember, you have within you the
strength, the patience and the passion to
reach for the stars to change the world.”
Harriet Tubman
Federal judge, 103, still hearing cases in KansasBy Roxana HegemanAssociated Press
WICHITA, Kan. — In acourtroom in Wichita, theday begins much as it has forthe past 49 years: Court is insession, U.S. District JudgeWesley Brown presiding.Butwhat happens next is nolonger routine; it’s a testa-ment to one man’s sheer de-termination.
As lawyers and litigantswait in respectful silence,Brown, who is 103, carefullysteers his power wheelchairbehind the bench, hisstooped frame almost disap-pearing behind its woodenbulk. He adjusts under hisnose the plastic tubes fromthe oxygen tank lying next tothe day’s case documents.Then his voice rings out loudand firm to his law clerk,“Call your case.’’
Brown is the oldest work-ing federal judge in the na-tion, one of four appointeesby President Kennedy stillon the bench. Federal judge-ships are lifetime appoint-
ments, and no one has takenthat term more seriouslythan Brown.
“As a federal judge, I wasappointed for life or goodbehavior, whichever I losefirst,’’ Brown quipped in aninterview. How does he planto leave the post? “Feet first,”he says.
In a profession where ad-vanced age isn’t unusual —and, indeed, is valued as asource of judicial wisdom —Brown has left legal col-leagues awestruck by hisstamina and devotion towork. His service also epito-mizes how the federal courtsystem keeps working evenas litigation steadily increas-es, new judgeships remainrare, and judicial openingsgo unfilled for months oryears.
“Senior judges keep thefederal court system afloat
given the rising case loads,’’said David Sellers,spokesman for the Adminis-trative Office of the U.S.Courts. Of the 1,294 sittingfederal judges, Brown is oneof 516 on “senior status,” aform of semi-retirementthat allows a judge to collecthis salary but work at a re-duced case level if he choos-es. They handle almost aquarter of federal districttrials.
And no one alive haslogged more service thanBrown, who took senior sta-tus in 1979 but still workedfulltime until recently. InMarch, he stopped takingnew criminal cases andlightened his case load a bit.He still takes his full share ofthe new civil cases.
“I do it to be a public serv-ice,’’ Brown said. “You got tohave a reason to live. As long
as you perform a publicservice, you have a reason tolive.’’
Brown gets a ride to thefederal courthouse at 8:30a.m. every workday from theassisted living center wherehe lives. Until he was in his90s, he climbed the stairs tohis fourth-floor chambers.He works until about 3 p.m.presiding over hearings,reading court filings and dis-cussing cases with his lawclerks who handle the legalresearch.
In one concession to age,he keeps court hearings rela-tively short. But he listensintently to testimony andtells defendants to speak upor slow down if he has trou-ble following their state-ments. And, if necessary, hecan be stern with lawyers,prodding them in a strongvoice not to waste time.
Brown is known for hiscompassion for defendants,even those he sends toprison. When he sentencedKassie Liebsch last month to37 months for her role in aticket scalping scandal, hetold the tearful 28-year-oldwoman how much he andother court officials wantedher to succeed in the future.
“As an old man, it is hardfor me to say I am sorry ithappened,” Brown told her.“I know you will do the rightthing. Good luck and bewell.”
Brown also serves as sen-ior statesman in the court-house, giving colleagues thebenefit of his long experi-ence.
“He never pressures us ortells us what to do,” said Dis-trict Judge Eric Melgren, 54.“He shares his thoughts andwe can benefit as we see fit.”

Subway blasts kill 11 in capitalMINSK — An explosion tore through a key subway
station in the Belarusian capital of Minsk duringevening rush hour Monday killing 11 people andwounding 126. An official said the blast was a terroristact.
President Alexander Lukashenko did not say whatcaused the explosion at the Oktyabrskaya subwaystation, but suggested outside forces could be behindit.
“I do not rule out that this gift could have beenbrought from outside,” Lukashenko said. The authori-tarian leader, under strong pressure from the Westover his suppression of the opposition, has frequentlyalleged outside forces seek to destabilize his regime.
Deputy prosecutor-general Andrei Shved said theblast was a terrorist act, but did not give furtherdetails.
JAPAN
Nuclear crisis matches ChernobylTOKYO — Japan’s nuclear regulators raised the
severity level of the crisis at a stricken nuclear plantTuesday to rank it on par with the 1986 Chernobyldisaster.
An official with the Nuclear Safety Commission of
Japan, speaking on national television, said the rat-ing was being raised from 5 to 7 — the highest levelon the international scale.
The official, who was not named, said the amountof radiation leaking from the Fukushima Dai-ichinuclear plant was around 10 percent of theChernobyl accident.
The level 7 signifies a “major accident” with“wider consequences” than the previous level,according to the standards scale.
“We have upgraded the severity level to 7 as theimpact of radiation leaks has been widespread fromthe air, vegetables, tap water and the ocean,” saidMinoru Oogoda of Japan’s Nuclear and IndustrialSafety Agency.
IVORY COAST
Gbagbo captured; standoff endsABIDJAN — The elected president of this West
African nation heralded “the dawn of a new era ofhope” Monday when a bloody, four-month standoffended with the capture of his rival, the longtimestrongman who lost the vote but refused to give uppower.
Video of former President Laurent Gbagbo beingled into a room in a white undershirt was broadcaston television as proof of his detention. He would not
sign a statement formally ceding power after losinga Nov. 28 election to economist Alassane Ouattara.
More than 1 million civilians fled their homes anduntold numbers were killed in the power strugglebetween the two rivals that threatened to re-ignite acivil war in the world’s largest cocoa producer.Gbagboís security forces have been accused of usingcannons, 60 mm mortars and 50-caliber machineguns to mow down opponents during the standoff.
“After more than four months of post-electoralcrisis, marked by so many human lives lost, we arefinally at the dawn of a new era of hope,” Ouattarasaid in an address to the nation on radio and televi-sion.
FRANCE
Two arrested as burqa ban beginsPARIS — Two women wearing Islamic face veils or
niqabs were detained by police in Paris Monday as acontroversial ban on garments that cover the face —dubbed the burqa ban — came into force.
The two were part of a group of a dozen peopleprotesting the ban in front of Notre Dame Cathedral.
A police spokesman told the German newsagency dpa that three people had been detainedover the protest “because they were taking part in anundeclared demonstration” and not because two ofthe women were wearing the niqab.
They had been brought to a police station for anidentity check, the spokesman said. He could notconfirm whether they had been fined.
The demonstration was organized by an organiza-tion called Don’t Touch My Constitution, whichopposes the law that was passed last October butonly came into effect Monday.
Under the law, which forbids people from con-cealing their face in public, a woman wearing a burqa(a garment that covers the body from head to toe) ora niqab (a veil that covers the face with a slit for theeyes) can be fined 150 euros ($217) or forced to takeclasses on citizenship.

T.F. is hungry for community gardeningBy Virginia HutchinsTimes-News writer
Community gardening is a con-cept that has greened urban neigh-borhoods around the UnitedStates; taught city dwellers aboutfood production, composting andwater conservation; and trans-formed neglected vacant lots intocenterpieces of community coop-eration.
In these gardens, anyone canrent a plot for the growing seasonand keep — or donate — the harvestit produces. So the idea becamepopular first in land-starved urbanareas where many residents had nodirt of their own.
But the concept started to make
sense even in Twin Falls back in2003, when the College of South-ern Idaho first offered plots in itscommunity garden just north ofthe campus. Development wasrapidly replacing farm ground onthe city’s edges, and new apart-ment complexes were rising.
And Twin Falls, it turned out,loved community gardening. Thecollege’s plots-for-rent cater toapartment dwellers yearning for alittle soil under their fingernails.To homeowners unwilling to sac-rifice lawn for garden rows. Tofirst-time growers needing point-ers and encouragement. To veg-etable vendors too cramped intheir backyards for profitable pro-duction.
And the plots are in demand.In CSI’s community garden, all
40 plots are already claimed forthis season by returning gardenersor by new ones from the top of thewaiting list. Six or seven peoplewanted plots who didn’t get themthis year, said Dawn Wendland, of-fice specialist in CSI’s agriculturedepartment. The college’s 25-by-50-foot plots rent for $40 per sea-son,with water provided.
Now efforts are afoot to createmore community gardening spacein Twin Falls. The City Council thismonth formed a committee to lookat potential community gardens onpublic property, following a re-quest for a garden on a portion ofthe city’s Harrison Park.
NOXIOUS ANDINVASIVE?
By Ariel HansenTimes-News writer
The yellow flag iris doesn’t look like athreat. To the untrained eye, its prettygolden blooms look little different fromthe other lovely irises that Idahoanscultivate in yards and gardens.
But this showoff flower is actually adanger: It displaces native plants, canrestrict water flow in irrigation canalsand ditches, and can even reduce thenumber of ducks and other waterfowl ina wetland. It’s an invasive weed, andplant professionals in Idaho are tryingto get rid of it.
To help educate gardeners and evennurseries about whichplants are on the list ofnoxious and invasivespecies, the IdahoNursery and Land-scape Association haspublished a 20-pagecolor brochure de-scribing many of thesespecies and offeringsimilar alternativesthat are not dangerous to our nativeplants. Called “Plant this, not that,” thebrochure proved so popular at a recenthome and garden show in Boise thatthere are only a few paper copies left.
“We worked with the Idaho State De-partment of Agriculture on this proj-ect, and they started it, but ran out ofmoney to produce it,” said Julie Jacob-son, marketing and education directorfor the INLA. Her organization got agrant to print the brochures, which be-came available in late February, and shehopes to get a second grant to printmore next year.“You have to be careful,that’s why we’re trying to educateeverybody.”
Jacobson said the list of noxious andinvasive species changes frequently; forexample, water hyacinth was taken offthe list of noxious species last year, butwas placed on the list of invasive speciesthis year.
Noxious ssppeecciieess aarree those that shouldbe removed immediately and thor-oughly — ask your local extension officeabout the proper way to dispose of anyplant material you remove, as that canchange with location and species.
Invasive ssppeecciieess aarree usually a bit lessdangerous but should not be encour-aged. The nursery association is askingthat gardeners voluntarily remove thesespecies, and nurseries stop sellingthem.
Nursery buyers sometimes have ahard time keeping up with the chang-ing list, so in some cases home garden-ers can find some of these species inad-vertently for sale at their local nurs-eries.
“I pretty much know what’s on thenational list, but there’s always some-thing new it seems like. A lot of timesyour suppliers will tell you,” said DaveFreeman, production manager atSouthern Idaho Landscape Center inFiler. He also noted that some plantsthat are OK in other areas of Idaho areforbidden in our area.“Usually, (sup-pliers) say they can ship to Idaho, untilyou tell them you’re in southern Idaho.”
Freeman keeps a running list of thedangerous plants on his desk, and con-sults it when he is asked about a planthe’s not familiar with.
“I just had a gentleman in here lastweek for a plant that he had in Nevada,and I looked it up and it was on the in-vasive species list,” he said.“Usuallyit’s something out of the common that(a customer) had in their family farmback East, or used in a real drought-stricken area.”
Noxious and invasive species are of-ten very difficult to get rid of, because
This blood grass is invasive;
plant squirreltail instead.
This herbaceous knotweed is
noxious; plant Western
meadow rue instead.
This Mediterranean sage is
noxious; plant sagebrush
instead.
This oxeye daisy is noxious;

Gooding plants seeds of communitygarden, and collaboration sprouts
By Emily KatseanesTimes-News correspondent
GOODING — EricMoore had a terrible viewout his office at the U.S.Food and Drug Adminis-tration building in Good-ing. The window let inplenty of light, but itoverlooked an unusedfield rocks and weeds.Thanks to an idea Moorehad two years ago, theweeds and rocks are gonenow, and the seeds of a
new view are planted inthe muddy field.
Moore, with the per-mission of the field’sowners, is working toturn the acre and a halfinto a community gar-den. Moore envisionedcommunity memberstaking over plots to growvegetables, herbs andfruit for their own tablesor for community foodbanks. He hoped highschool kids would end upworking alongside senior
citizens. He saw oppor-tunities for grammarschool children to learnabout where their foodcomes from and aboutthe natural world aroundthem.
So far, it looks likethat’s exactly what’s go-ing to happen.
Moore was joined earlyon in his mission by theMayor’s Youth AdvisoryCouncil, whose membersstepped up to help Moorespread the word about

to create the kind of commu-nity Moore had envisioned.Volunteer-fueled projectsare in the works to buildwheelchair-accessible plantbeds,to plant a tactile gardenfor blind gardeners and towork with green thumbs forwhom English is a secondlanguage.
“We’re not just growing agarden,” Moore said. “We’regrowing a community.”
And for some of the gar-den’s earliest supporters, thework hasn’t ended. April 2saw the YAC out on a blus-tery day, picking rocks out ofthe field. Though their num-bers were diminished due toa clash with prom night, half
a dozen kids that day pulledenough rocks to create fivechild-size piles and even un-earthed stones from an oldschool that once stood onthe plot.
But the rock pickers reallyhave their sights set on an-other project in the dirt: fi-nally growing something.
Eight-year-old ColbyThompson said he’s lookingforward to rows of peas, car-rots, corn and even broccoli.The last one drew a loud“ew” from fellow YAC
member DominiqueHuggett, 12.
YAC adviser ChrisThompson said the projectwas as perfect for the YACas the field now is for a gar-den.
“We wanted somethingbig,” Thompson said. “Thisseemed like something reallygood we could grab onto.”
Big is exactly whatMoore’s once-modest proj-ect has become. With $500donated from King’s and upto $13,500 from Glanbia,Moore can add a storageshed, small pavilion and paidsummer workers to his vi-sion.
“Every day has broughtsomething new,” Moore said.“People call up and say,‘What can I do?’ I wish mylife was this easy.”
But it keeps coming backto the original, down-to-earth goal.
“In my mind, I see differ-ent colors and shades andgreens and yellows,” Mooresaid.

The local supportsnowballed from there.
Farmer Louis Daven-port plowed the field. Sa-bala Farms volunteeredcompost and the laying ofit. Elisha Woodford vol-unteered her seeds and tostart seedlings.
“It’s something Iwould have liked to trymyself, but it’s just theorganization,” she said.“(Moore’s) pretty amaz-ing — all the connectionshe has made and gottenpeople involved.”
After Woodford, areagreenhouse owners vol-unteered their warm in-teriors for starter plants.
“The response to thisfrom this little farmingcommunity has beenhumbling and uplifting,”Moore said. “The com-munity here has re-sponded in an unbeliev-ably positive way.”
It didn’t end there.More people began vol-unteering not just to helpbuild up the garden, but

My refrigerator has a face-out water dispens-er on the front door.
h rough the years it has accumulated hard water scale and scum on the bottom tray and all around the dispenser. I didn’t realize how bad it was until we had some friends over for dinner. h ey looked at it with disgust and suggested I write to you for help!
”Feeling Glum From Scum!”
Your friends are right, there is the perfect product for such a visible problem, (those dispensers sit up high
at eye level so everyone can see the mess!) Showers-N-Stuff is an amazing nonphosphoric product that works on hard water scale and scum buildup. It is formulated with a detergent to cut through grime, while the acid goes after mineral deposits. Try it out, then invite your guests back to see the shiny improvement.

Voltage surge canharm many thingsin your house
DDEEAARR JJIIMM:: We have manyelectronic gadgets in ourhouse, and I am concernedabout a voltage surge ruin-ing them. Are there whole-house surge suppressorswhich will protect every-thing electric in our house?
— SSaannddii SS..DDEEAARR SSAANNDDII:: People of-
ten think of only electronicgadgets such as computers,game consoles andaudio/visual items as beingat risk from electricalsurges. Actually, nearlyevery electric item in ahouse today has some sortof sensitive electronicswhich can be damaged by asurge. These include ranges,dishwashers, air condition-ers, fans, etc.
A very common source ofan electrical surge is athunderstorm. The voltageand current spikes from alightning strike are enor-mous. If your house andwiring experience a director very nearby hit by light-ning, even a good surgesuppressor likely will not beable to protect all electronicitems.
When a storm is forecastand you begin to hear thethunder off in the distance,unplug as many of yourelectronic devices as possi-ble. Just switching them offmay not be adequate pro-tection. A huge voltage surgecan arc across an openswitch and still fry the elec-tronic components.
It often is repeated small-er electrical surges whichdamage electronic equip-ment over time. These canbe generated from theswitching on and off of in-ductive equipment (usuallyelectric motors) in nearbybusinesses. Some of thesesmaller surges can even begenerated by your own vac-uum cleaner, refrigeratorcompressor or clotheswasher motors in yourhouse wiring.
These smaller surges canslowly break down wire in-sulation or some electroniccomponents over time.Eventually a wire may shortout or the electronic com-ponent begins to malfunc-tion and the appliance fails.
There are several types ofwhole-house surge sup-pressors available. Somemount on the circuit breakerpanel indoors or are built in-to a circuit breaker. Othersare designed to mount un-derneath an electric meter.Many electric utility com-panies sell and install theelectric-meter-style unitsfor you. The circuit breakerpanel models are not diffi-cult to install, but hire anelectrician to do it.
There are differences inthe protection provided byvarious surge suppressors. A
common design uses metaloxide varistors (MOV) to ab-sorb the electricity surgeand dissipate it before itflows through the housewiring.
A physically larger MOVcan absorb a larger surge.The basic specifications tocompare surge suppressorsare the maximum surge cur-rent (amperes) and the totalenergy dissipation (joules) itcan handle. A higher num-ber for both is better.
Even though the surgesuppressor protected yourelectronics, a large surgemany burn out the MOV.Many models have a light onthem to indicate if it is stillfunctioning or not. Check itregularly and especially af-ter a thunderstorm.
DEAR JJIIMM:: I like to use mybrick fireplace, but I don’toften because the room getsmoky. The fireplace open-ing is pretty big. What can Ido to reduce the smoking?
— FFrraannkk KK..DDEEAARR FFRRAANNKK:: Have the
chimney cleaned and in-spected first to make surenothing is blocking thesmoke path. Tiles can breakloose and fall together, par-tially blocking it. A chimneyfire may have caused cre-osote to puff up.
If the height of the open-ing is too high above theburning logs, the draft canbe insufficient. Try using agrate to raise the logs fromthe floor or put a steel plateacross the top to reduce theheight/width ratio of theopening.

Organic vs. synthetic fertilizersBy Dean FosdickFor The Associated Press
Another growing seasonis fast approaching, and be-fore you can seed you mustfeed.
Now is the time to decidewhether to use organic orsynthetic fertilizers to en-rich the soil. They producesimilar results but come at itfrom different directions.
Most organic fertilizersare derived from plants andanimals. This group in-cludes manure, bone andblood meal, seaweed, com-post and minerals. All arerich in nutrients, but mustbe “cured’’ or broken downby bacteria before they cannurture plants and condi-tion soils.
Synthetic fertilizers arecommercially producedfrom petroleum or naturalgas, and are packaged ineasy-to-apply granular orliquid forms. They giveplants a vigorous althoughshort-term jolt.
“Plants don’t know thedifference if you’re using asynthetic or an organic. It’sall chemical to them,’’ saidValerie Locher, a horticul-turist and landscape man-ager from Housatonic,Mass. “But the beauty oforganics is that they’re nat-urally slow-release.They’re there for the entireseason.’’
Locher uses synthetic
fertilizers when plantingflowers in containers. “Iplant a lot of annuals so Iwant their growth to be re-ally quick,’’ she said. “Syn-thetics leach into the soilwith the first watering. In-stant nourishment.’’
Organic ffeerrttiilliizzeerrss mmaayynnoott bbee tthhee aannsswweerr iiff::
•• YYoouu ddoonn’’tt like odors.“Fermented seaweed andfish make beautiful fertiliz-ers but they’re often diffi-cult to use because theysmell,’’ Locher said. “Ifyou’re spreading some-thing like minerals on theground, there’s no odorproblem.’’
• You wwaanntt to reduceyour workload. “If it’s acompacted soil and youhave a hard time breaking
ground, then it will be hardfor any roots to grow,’’Locher said. “That meansyou’ll have to do a lot of soilwork in the spring — I call it‘fluffing’ — to mix your nu-trition deep into theground.’’
Synthetics are easier inthis case because they canbe broadcast over the sur-face of the ground. Thegranules or liquids seep intothe soil as soon as water isapplied.
• You’re llooookkiinngg forconsistency. Synthetic fer-tilizers are sold with athree-digit chemical codedisplayed on each bag. Ifthe label reads “10-10-10,’’it’s a blend of 10 percent ni-trogen, 10 percent phos-phorous and 10 percent
potassium by weight.(What’s left is filler, usuallysand or limestone.)
But organic fertilizers,especially the kitchen com-posts or farmyard manures,are variable mixtures. Anall-purpose, 4-6-2 loadwhen supplied one yearmay test out as an acidic 4-3-6 application when de-livered the next.

•• BBuuiilldd uupp the soil struc-ture, boosting its water-holding capacity, andadding to its biodiversityand long-term productivi-ty.
• Improve drainage,minimizing soil erosion andsoluble nitrogen- andphosphorus-rich runoff.
You don’t have to be anorganic gardener to use or-ganic fertilizers. It may justbe practical. Many can beobtained in bulk for little orno cost from nearby live-stock operations, munici-pal green-waste collectioncenters and dump sites, saidRichard Koenig, a soil sci-entist at Washington StateUniversity.
“Recycling makes use ofmaterials that otherwisewould go to a landfill,’’Koenig said. “You can gethung up too much aboutwhat makes a fertilizer. Ba-sically,anything organic canbe used directly or indirect-ly in the soil.’’

THE ANCIENT IS NEW AGAINAriel Hansen tells you where to learn primitive skills:
cordage making, flint knapping, native plant identification.
FRIDAY IN ENTERTAINMENT
By Jennifer BargerThe Washington Post
Hardware stores play amajor part in house projectssuch as painting walls andrepairing toilets. ButStephen Antonson andKathleen Hackett see thepotential in Ace, Home De-pot and the like to turn pipesand pegboard into moderndecorations and furnishings,with a little bit of DIY inge-nuity.
The New York husbandand wife provide instruc-tions for several such proj-ects in their new book,“Home From the HardwareStore’’ (Rodale, $23). Anton-son, an artist, designer andfather of two, talked aboutthe couple’s inspiration forthe book and how not to hurtyourself when assemblingtheir designs. Ex-cerpts:
QQWhen did it oc-cur to you that
hardware could betransformed intodecorative, functionalthings?
AAWhen I made mynow-wife a
chandelier from bal-ing wire and chains.I’m an artist, and in-evitably on the week-ends I’d find myself atthe hardware store,sometimes two orthree times. And itstarted to look like aland of discovery tome.
QQHow do you de-termine whether, say, apacking crate will make
a good table or a drain gratecan be turned into a lamp?
AAI think anything at thehardware store is up for
grabs. And if you don’t knowwhat something is, all thebetter. Just walk the aisles atthe hardware store, and tryto imagine what somethingcould be, not what it is.
QQWhat’s your favoriteproject in the book?
AAWe did a screen usingbi-fold doors, craft pa-
per and thumbtacks, whichis pretty cool.
QQIsn’t there a danger thatnewbies will hurt
themselves turning pipinginto table bases?
AAThe only injury I can en-vision is if you’re using a
saw. But these aren’t reallybuilding projects; they aremore about assembling. Wehave a candlestick projectthat is just putting plumbingparts together, and you cando it in five minutes.
QQHow do you suggestmixing these hardware
store pieces into a home?
AAI think you mix thesewith things that are not
industrial at all, like an 18th-
century Swedish sofa. That’llkeep things interesting.
QQWhy do you think in-dustrial furnishings are
in style now?
AAThere’s been this wholeshift to mid-century
modern furniture and light-ing, and I feel like it’s almostthat profile that has spurredthis. The way people live
now, they don’t want a Vic-torian tea-set holder in thecorner; they’d rather do awall shelf unit made of card-board tubes.
QQYou have a lot of kids’projects in the book,
like a robot lamp made ofmetal tubing.
AAThe hardware store hasso much raw material
that’s made to last, it’s idealfor things like building fortsor crazy costumes.
QQDo you think there areother unmined sources
of good home projects?
AAKitchen-supply storescould be great for office
organization projects. Justthink about all those littlesteel containers and forms:You could put them in draw-ers or on the desk to holdthings. My point with all ofthis is that you should zig,not zag, when you thinkabout your home.
they crowd out native plantsand have propagation meth-ods like tubers or wide-spreading seeds that arehard to control. Removalmethods vary from speciesto species.
“It’s pretty much plant-specific,” Freeman said, not-ing that it often takes veryharsh chemicals to kill someof these plants entirely. Healso said it’s important to tellthe nursery where you buyyour chemicals what the sit-uation is with each plant; hehas had people spray theirentire yards with RoundUptrying to kill dandelions orthistles, not realizing thespray will kill every plant ittouches.
“There’s something madefor just about everything,even the tough perennials,”he said.“There’s ways ofgetting rid of them; it’s justthe proper application at theproper time.”
Seven plants are listed as
noxious and invasive in theINLA’s brochure — Mediter-ranean sage, knotweeds,purple loosestrife, oxeyedaisy, parrotfeather milfoil,Brazilian elodea andsaltcedar — and 10 listed forvoluntary gardener removal.
With each of these dan-gerous plants, there is a de-
scription, photo and expla-nation of why it should beremoved. Three safe alter-natives are listed, with de-tails about what they looklike and how they grow.

Fertilizing your GardenVEGETABLE AND FLOWER GARDENS - Spread the recommended amount of “ fertilizer uniformly over your garden. Mix or till it, 4 to 6 inches into the soil, before seeding or transplanting. h is method of application reduces the potential of salt injury to germinating seeds or young transplants. Certain vegetable crops require additional “ nitrogen during the growing season. Some of these vegetables are tomatoes, potatoes, sweet corn, cabbage, squash, okra, beans, and peppers. Always water at er applying fertilizer to help the movement of nutrients into the root zone.
ROSES - Roses have a high need for calcium. Lime recommendations are designed to maintain soil pH within a range of 6.0 to 6.5. A rate of 50 lbs per 1000 square feet is equivalent to spreading 1/2 cup around a plant to a distance of 18 inches. For best results, mix lime into the top 3 to 4
inches of soil. Apply fertilizer in April or when the i rst l ower buds appear. Apply additional nitrogen at monthly intervals through August. Water thoroughly following fertilizer application.
ORNAMENTAL SHRUBS - h e best time to apply fertilizer is in the early spring, usually one month prior to the most rapid growth period. Spread fertilizers evenly around the plant 10 to 12 inches from the base and water thoroughly. In cases where many plants are being planted in beds, mix or till lime and fertilizer before setting plants. Always apply any recommended lime several weeks before planting to allow enough time to adjust soil acidity. SHADE TREES - Apply fertilizer prior to budding. Mature trees growing within a lawn seldom need any fertilizer beyond that applied to the lawn. Spread the fertilizer evenly around the tree starting 12 inches from the trunk and out just beyond the farthest point where water drips of the tree (drip line).Resource: www.ncagr.gov

Nampa beef plant closedBy Cindy SnyderTimes News correspondent
TWIN FALLS — Closure of abeef packing plant will affect cattleproducers across southern Idaho,but the impacts are hard to gauge.
XL Four Star Beef, Inc. an-nounced Friday that it will close itsNampa beef processing plant inearly June, eliminating about 500jobs in the process.
“We regret that we have had totake such extreme action, but theeconomics of operating the facilitycombined with the capital require-ments of a plant of this age make itunfeasible to operate,” said BrianNilsson, co-CEO of XL.
Swift & Co. operated the plantuntil closing it in August 2005. XLFoods bought the plant and anOmaha, Neb., plant from Swift inApril 2006 and reopened theNampa plant in February 2007.
XL Foods is part of the NilssonBrothers Group, a Canadian cattle
feeding and marketing companywith operations in Alberta andSaskatchewan.
The plant was built by KingsPacking Co. in the mid 1920s. Over
the years it has been owned by aseries of companies including Ar-mour Food Co., ConAgra and Swift& Co. At peak capacity, the plantcould process 1,000 to 1,100 head
per day of primarily mature, culledcows.
While company officials pointedto the plant’s age as a primary rea-son for the closure, a shrinkingbeef herd contributed to the deci-sion.
“They just couldn’t get enoughcattle to come through the plant,”said Wyatt Prescott, executive vicepresident for the Idaho Cattle As-sociation. “Our herds have beencut to the point that there’s just notenough cows out there.”
Idaho’s beef herd is beginning toshow a slight increase, but the lat-est cow inventory released by theU.S. Department of Agriculture inJanuary showed just 92.6 millionhead of cows and calves in the U.S.That’s the lowest January 1 inven-tory since 1958.
Beef cows represented 30.9 mil-lion head, down 2 percent from2010. The 2010 calf crop was esti-mated at 35.7 million head, thesmallest calf crop since 1950.
Idaho had 446,000 beef cowsand 95,000 head of replacementheifers on January 1, up 1 percentand 5 percent, respectively, from2010.
Higher cull ratesThe weak U.S. dollar and strong
prices for ground beef have givenproducers an incentive to trimtheir herds. When fat cows werebringing 34 cents per pound,ranchers may let a few cows thatlost their calves stay in the herd tobe rebred the following year.
But when fat cow prices climbedto 60 cents per pound last fall andhay prices were forecast higher,ranchers culled their herds heavily.As ground beef demand remainedstrong even with high cull ratesfrom both beef and dairy herds,buyers increased the price theywere willing to pay for fat cows. Forthe last few months, fat cows have
Plant disease raises questionson genetically modified cropsBy P.J. HuffstutterLos Angeles Times
LOS ANGELES— Bounc-ing down a dirt road a coupleof summers ago, past a gentlepatchwork of barnyards andsoybean fields in centralIowa, farmer Kent Friedrich-sen strained over the steeringwheel of his van and staredthrough the windshield indismay.
His soybean fields, wherehe’d used seeds developed byMonsanto Co. and sprayedwith its popular glyphosateweed killer Roundup Ready,were littered with yellowedleaves and dead plants. Fourdays earlier, the plants hadbeen waist high and emeraldgreen.
Nearby, in fields where hehad planted seeds thatweren’t genetically engi-neered and didn’t useglyphosates, the soybeanplants were still healthy andlush.
Farmers call this “suddendeath syndrome,”a plant dis-ease that has plagued thecountry’s heartland and thenation’s estimated $36.8 bil-lion soybean industry. Scien-tists who first spotted thedisease in Arkansas in 1971 —more than 20 years beforeMonsanto introduced itsRoundup Ready soybeans inthe U.S. — blame dampweather and a fungus thatrots the plant roots.
But, Friedrichsen said,“foryears,I’ve wondered whetherthere wasn’t something else.”
Now, despite mountains ofresearch to the contrary, onesoil scientist is roiling theagricultural world withclaims that there might besome truth to the farmer’sunease.
Don M. Huber, an emeri-tus professor at Purdue Uni-versity who has done re-search for Monsanto onchemical herbicides, allegesthat he has found a link be-tween genetically modifiedcrops and crop diseases: an“unknown organism” he andother researchers claim tohave discovered last summerin Midwestern fields likeFriedrichsen’s.
“This organism appearsNEW to science!” Huberwrote in a letter in January toAgriculture Secretary TomVilsack about the matter. Heclaimed the unknown organ-ism may also be linked to in-fertility in livestock.
He added, “I believe the
threat we are facing from thispathogen is unique and of ahigh-risk status. In layman’sterms, it should be treated asan emergency.”
Huber, 76, asked in the let-ter for the U.S. Departmentof Agriculture to investigate.
A USDA spokesman saidHuber’s letter was forwardedto its correspondence officeFriday.
Though the science behindHuber’s claims is far fromsettled (and Huber has re-fused to make public any evi-dence of his claims) his letterhas intensified the battle be-tween those who believetechnology is the only way tofeed a ballooning global pop-ulation and those who are in-creasingly fearful of it.
Huber’s letter was leaked
in February and posted onscores of websites and blogs.
Huber declined to saypublicly who his fellow re-searchers are, saying they areworried about professionalbacklash by their academicemployers who received re-search funding from thebiotechnology industry.Peers wondered if it was afraud.
The letter sparked a re-sponse from Monsanto. Thecompany, contending thatindustry and academic re-search had disproved otherallegations Huber has previ-ously made about its prod-ucts, posted a statement onits website challenging theletter’s claims. The companysaid it wouldn’t ignore theletter because “we feel it is
important for us to look intoallegations involving ourproducts. Our statement andsubsequent conversationsfocus on requests to see thedata used in drafting the let-ter, as decades of farmer useand data from numeroussources show a very differentreality.”
An official from the IowaDepartment of Agricultureand Land Stewardship andresearchers at Iowa StateUniversity have tried sincelast fall to get access to plantsamples, but to no avail. In-stead, Huber and his teamhave opted to talk to themedia — rather than fellowscientists, said Robin Pruis-ner, entomologist for theIowa agriculture depart-ment.
The American Phy-topathological Society, ofwhich Huber is a member,is-sued a statement distancingthe group from him. Otherleading agricultural researchcenters have dismissed Hu-ber’s claims as being far-fetched or irresponsible.
Corn stocksremain tightBy Cindy SnyderTimes News correspondent
U.S. Department ofAgriculture forecastersdidn’t make a lot ofchanges in the monthlygrain balance sheet, butwhat changes were madejust confirm one thing live-stock producers alreadyknow: grain stocks aretight and feed prices areheaded higher.
Helen Pound, an analystwith Penson Futures,calledFriday’s report “mystify-ing.”
Analysts had expectedUSDA to lower U.S. cornending stocks by 80 millionbushels following release ofthe March quarterly stocksreport that pegged March 1corn inventories at 6.52million bushels, 15 percentlower than a year ago andnearly 170 million bushelslower than the pre-reportestimate.
That led many marketwatchers to believe USDAwould revise the U.S. sup-ply outlook downward —drastically downward — inthe April 8th report.
“I can’t find hide nor hairof those numbers in this re-port,”Pound said.
Instead, USDA left totalusage constant at 13.5 bil-lion bushels and year-endsupplies at 675 millionbushels, which representsabout 18 days of supply.
In comparison, the U.S.had 48 days of supply onhand August 30, 2010 —the end of the corn market-ing year. USDA increasedethanol usage by 50 millionbushels, citing favorablemarkets which becameeven more favorable afterMay crude oil futuresclosed at $112.70 Friday,thehighest level since Septem-ber 2008.
Lee 2nd quarter revenue dropsTimes-News
Lee Enterprises Inc.,which publishes theTimes-News, St. LouisPost-Dispatch and othernewspapers, announcedMonday it expects to re-port a decline in revenuefor its second quarter end-ing March 27.
Compared to the sameperiod last year, Lee’s rev-enue is expected to de-crease by $6.5 to $7.5 mil-lion.
Operating expenses,however, are expected todecline by more than onepercent. This is an im-provement from previousforecasts which indicatedoperating expenses wouldlikely increase by morethan one percent.
Mary Junck, Lee chair-man and chief executiveofficer, said in a press re-lease that the late timing ofthe Easter holiday ad-versely affected revenuefor the quarter.
Historically, Lee experi-ences an increase in revenueleading up to the holiday.
“Our experience in TwinFalls pretty much mirrorsthat of Lee overall”, saidTimes-News PublisherJohn Pfeifer. “We’re look-
ing forward to Easter andsome good spring weatherto help propel sales for-ward.”
Lee will issue its final re-port on May 6.

The shortage of cows ex-tends beyond the U.S. bor-der. XL Four Star Beef alsoannounced Friday that isalso shutting down its twofacilities in Calgary.
According to a companystatement, production willhalt at the processing andfabrication plants in Maydue to a “significant de-crease” in the westernCanada cow herd thathas “greatly affected themature cattle supply.”The Canadian plants mayreopen in the fall when“mature cattle numbersare historically more
plentiful.”XL Four Star Beef buyers
will continue to purchasemature cows for its Omaha,Neb., plant.
Although cattle pricesare strong, producers arealready feeling the pinch of$4.50 to $5 per gallon dieselprices.
Many of the mature beefcows sold in the Magic Val-ley were already beingshipped to a processingplant near Phoenix, Ariz.,before the Nampa closurewas announced. The nextclosest facility is in Fresno,Calif. All of the 4-H steersfrom Twin Falls Countywere shipped to the Nampaplant for processing.
For years, fed cattle pro-ducers in the western stateshave shipped cattle tofeedlots in the High Plainsnear corn fields. But it isbecoming more economi-cal to ship corn out West onthe rail. Feeder cattle pricesare being discounted by $8per hundredweight com-pared to prices in thePlains.
The USDA’s latest cattleon feed report showed a 13percent increase over theprevious year. Idaho’sfeedlots with a capacity of1,000 head or more held220,000 head on March 1.Nationwide, cattle on feednumbers were up 5 percentto 11.4 million head.

The increase in ethanol wasoffset by a 50 million busheldecrease in estimated feedusage — another contradicto-ry signal. Current estimatesput hog and poultry numbersslightly ahead of last year,with feedlot numbers up sig-nificantly. However, USDAforecasters said relatively highmilk prices were being offsetby higher feed costs resultingin little projected growth inthe dairy industry this year.
Although cheap wheatprices may entice producersto feed more wheat and lesscorn,USDA forecaster did notinclude higher wheat feed us-age in the April report either.
Wheat feed use was heldsteady at 170 million bushels.
Increased use of distillersgrains, a byproduct fromethanol production, may alsobe offsetting the decreasedfeed use but because the US-DA report deals only withwhole grains, that feedstuffcan’t be accounted for.
Analysts are now veryskeptical that prices are highenough to ration supplies,pointing out that bumpercrops are needed to just tokeep up with growing de-mand.
“We need the rationingprocess to take place in orderto survive at these low (carry-out) levels,”Pound said.
Corn futures for May andJune closed at the highest lev-els ever on Friday and the Maycontract added another 8cents per bu. Monday to closeat $7.76 per bushel despite asell off in soybeans, wheat,
gold and crude oil. Corn fu-tures prices have more thandoubled from a year ago.
USDA forecasters alsopegged soybean endingstocks at 140 million bushels,a record low 4.2 percent ofannual usage or 15 days ofsupply. But slowing demandweighed on the market and heMay soybeans futures con-tract closed down 23-1/4cents per bushel on Mondayat $13.68-1/2. Soybean fu-tures are up over 40 percentfrom a year ago.
Steve Meyer and Len Stein-er, who write the Daily Live-stock Report, said marketsshrugged off the April reportbelieving demand is stillstrong and stocks will gettighter. “The bottom line forthe meat and poultry sectorsis higher costs pending the re-sult of this year’s crops.”

THOUGHTFOR
TODAY
THOUGHT FOR TODAYDEAR ABBY: I would like
to respond to “Agnostic Dadin South Carolina” (Feb. 16),who wondered about how toanswer the inevitable “Isthere a God?” question hischildren will ask.My parentshad strong but differingChristian faiths. They com-promised when bringing usup, and we went to thechurch nearest our home(another denomination).Further, when we wereteens, they allowed us to“sample” other religioustraditions to determine whatwould suit us best.
I became agnostic, andlike “Dad in S.C.,” wasunsure what to tell my son.My husband and I do notbelong to any organized reli-gion and didn’t take him tochurch as a youngster.Instead, we introduced sto-ries from the Bible at bed-time, and allowed him toattend his friends’ churcheswhen he asked to. Moreimportant, we showed himthat all people are to be val-ued and that differences areto be respected.
Our son is now in his late20s. He’s a gentle, caringperson with an interest inpeople from other cultures,religions and circumstances.Whether he is agnostic, reli-gious or an atheist is a per-sonal matter to him. He’scomfortable with his beliefsand doesn’t impose them onanyone else. As a parent, Icouldn’t ask for more.
— FREE-THINKINGMOM IN WASHINGTON
DEAR MOM: Thank youfor writing. Many readerswere eager to offer guidanceon this subject to a fellowparent. Read on:
DEAR ABBY: Despiteeight years of Catholic edu-cation, I’m an atheist. Mywife is a Lutheran. We’venever argued about itbecause we feel everyonehas a right to religious free-dom. We have three sons,whom she took to churchand Sunday school regularlywith my complete support.We discussed in advancewhat our answer should bewhen the God questioncame up. Our response was:“Some people believe thereis a God and others do not.You will get a sound reli-gious education, and whenthe time comes, you willdecide for yourself.”
Our sons are now adultswith families. Two are reli-gious; one is not. At familymeals we join hands and saygrace. Some recite it — somejust listen — and every-body’s happy.
— HARMONIOUSS IN ILLINOIS
DEAR ABBY: There is noproblem for “Agnostic” andhis wife to “handle.” If hischildren ask if there’s a God,he should model honesty forthem and say what hethinks. So should his wife. Ifthe kids get two differentanswers, they will learn thatnot everyone shares thesame opinion. Suggestingthat “Dad” not express hisview plainly, without inputfrom his wife, amounts torecommending that theycollude in providing a dis-honest answer.
— EMERITUS PROFESSOR OF
PHILOSOPHY IN IOWADEAR ABBY: My husband
and I are agnostic parents oftwo adult children, both ofwhom are tolerant, open-minded and decent people.My advice to “Dad”is to readsome of the excellent booksthat are available about dis-cussing God and religionwith children. He shouldalso look into the UnitarianUniversalist church, whichdoes not push any one creedbut encourages people tofind their own beliefs in asupportive environment.

MISCELLANEOUS
rECREATIONAL
IF APRIL 12 IS YOURBIIRTHDAY: In the next fourto six weeks, you may stum-ble upon a fabulous oppor-tunity or be given a chance toshow off your leadershipabilities. Supportive, trulyhelpful people will be by yourside who could offer youpermanent assistance andyour wise decisions may leadyou to a brighter future. LateAugust and early Septemberis a good period for a roman-tic vacation or fling.The rockand the hard place mightcause you some stress inOctober and November.Strive to fulfill presentresponsibilities but don’tadd more to your burden.
ARIES (March 21-April19): Open your heart. Alucky horseshoe is consid-ered luckiest when the openend is up so good luck canfill it. Don’t get off on thewrong foot with someoneby being secretive or argu-mentative.
TAURUS (April 20-May20): There is no such thingas a saint without a past or asinner without a future. Theperson you admire the mostmight not be exactly who orwhat you envision. Don’t letfantasies interfere withreality.
GEMINI (May 21-June20): Contain your enthusi-asm. If you think too faroutside of the box, youwon’t be able to ship yourideas anywhere. It is time toput finishing touches on aproject without alienatingyour coworkers.
CAANCER (June 21-July22): Get more information.You may be a wee bit jealouswhen you see that otherpeople have made a bundlewith a certain investmentbut the timing might not beright for you to jump inheadfirst.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22):Overnight success may takeyears to achieve. Don’t betoo anxious to get ahead asyour business acumen mustaccumulate gradually. A fewmore days won’t make a bitof difference to long rangeplans.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept.22): When you work on yourweaknesses you may dis-cover strengths. You mightimagine that you can bebetter than you are throughsheer force of will or imag-ine you are worse than youare through guilt.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Octt. 22):Where there’s a will, there’sa way. However, you maywish you’d spent your timeand energy on somethingthat will yield permanentresults. Avoid being dis-tracted by fantasies whenmoney needs attention.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov.21): You can never winunless you are willing toaccept the consequences offailure. That lottery ticketmight not win the pot, butyou won’t ever win the potunless you buy the ticket inthe first place.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): The starting bellhasn’t rung. What you arehearing is aggravation withthe status quo. It starts anitch that makes you want toscratch. Wrap up currentprojects before beginningnew ones.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 119): Reconsider.Choices made in haste orbased on anger are usuallybad choices. Brooding overimagined slights and injus-tices could put you in theframe of mind to lash out atthe wrong people.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You want mostwhat you can’t have. Stickto your goals like glue, evenif something else looksespecially enticing orintriguing. Distractingcravings are easily set intomotion by frustrateddesires.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March20): Take your time aboutmaking irrevocable deci-sions. You might be spurredon by others to make a hastyjudgment call, but you arebest served by usingstrength of character toresist a challenge or dare.

Baylor’s void was PierreJackson’s opportunity. Anopportunity the 5-foot-10College of Southern Idahosophomore guard can’t waitto seize.
“I see a good future in mynext two years there at Bay-lor,” said Jackson, who ver-bally committed to play forthe Bears late Sundaynight. “(We can) get itdone, keep the winning go-ing. We’ve got the pieces,hopefully I’ll just be the last
piece they needed.”The other pieces on Bay-
lor’s roster are a big reasonJackson chose the Bears overCreighton. He visitedCreighton’s campus in Oma-ha, Neb., last Thursday be-fore heading to Waco, Texas,where he quickly meshedwith Baylor’s players.
“What Baylor has comingback next year — the frontline is crazy,”said Jackson.“…They got a couple NBA-cal-iber front-line players and
they’ve got a couplefreshmen coming inthat are NBA caliberalready on a couplemock drafts.”
One of the big guysJackson is eager tocomplement is 6-foot-11 Perry Jones,who announced Mon-day he’ll return to Baylor forhis sophomore season afteraveraging 13.9 points and 7.2rebounds as a freshman.Quincy Acy, a 6-7 power for-ward, averaged 12.4 pointsand 7.6 boards for an 18-13Baylor squad that finishedeighth in the Big 12.
“They’re a cool bunch.And the coaching staff, I gotalong with them,” said Jack-
son, who calledBaylor head coachScott Drew “a cooldude.”
While Drew’steam has a bevy oftalent up front, itwas seeking a guardlike Jackson toround things out.
“Baylor needed a pointguard pretty bad last year,”said Jackson, who averaged ateam-high 18.6 points to gowith 4.4 assists, 3.8 re-bounds and 1.9 steals in lead-ing CSI (33-4) to the NJCAAnational title. “I guess I wasthe perfect guard for that sit-uation.”
Drew can’t comment onJackson until he signs an
NCAA Letter of Intent withthe school, something theCSI standout said he’ll do asearly as Wednesday whenthe late signing period be-gins.
Jackson said he didn’t seri-ously consider schools otherthan Creighton and Baylor.While he liked Creighton, hesaid “Baylor’s in a bigger andbetter conference, morecompetition, more expo-sure.”
It’s a great fit, according toCSI head coach Steve Gosar.
“I’m very happy for himand Baylor,” Gosar told theTimes-News in a text mes-sage. “He has worked ex-tremely hard for this oppor-tunity. I hope his two years at
Baylor are as good as his twoyears at CSI.”
Recruiting notes• CSI sophomore center
Kenny Buckner plans to offi-cially sign with Boise Stateon Wednesday, joining Jack-son in a signing ceremony.
• CSI guards Darius Smithand Issiah Grayson are still inthe process of taking recruit-ing trips,with Smith recentlyreturning from a visit toEastern Illinois.
• While CSI freshman for-ward Mitch Bruneel couldreturn next season, he islooking at several four-year programs, taking tripsto Boise State and UtahState.

Parker Morin paused, choosingthe right words to describe theday he had to pack up his entirelife and take it from sports-mad Texas to Park City,Utah, a city known forits ski slopes and itspart in hosting the2002 Winter Olympics.
“I remember pullingout of the driveway at myhouse, just heartbroken,”Morin said.
Over time, a seventh-grader’s disappointmentgave way to a grown man’sperspective for the Collegeof Southern Idaho sopho-more.
“If we hadn’t moved to Utah, Iprobably wouldn’t have startedcatching again. I wouldn’t be where Iam,” he added. “If I wasn’t catching Idon’t know if I’d be playing anymore.There are so many players at other positions,and I’m not all that fast and I didn’t have thestuff to be a pitcher.”
While the move kept him in the game, it’snot what molded him into the envy of otherhitters in the Scenic West Athletic Conference,where his .408 batting average is the only oneabove .400. It also didn’t make his arm the ar-tillery that’s stopped more would-be base
Schwartzel win shuts out Americans in majorsBy Doug FergusonAssociated Press writer
AUGUSTA, Ga. — Good newstravels much faster than whenGary Player first won the Mas-ters.
It was only fitting that on the50th anniversary of Player be-coming the first non-Americanplayer in a green jacket, hewatched another SouthAfrican, Charl Schwartzel, be-come the first champion at Au-gusta National to finish withfour straight birdies.
Player wasted no time send-ing his congratulations — onTwitter, of course, in a sign ofthe times. In the hours afterSchwartzel won against aleaderboard that featured play-ers from every continent onwhich golf is played, the 26-year-old champion sent Playera reply.
“Proud to follow your tradi-tion!”
Player was an anomaly at thetime he won, the first globalplayer in a game that is more in-ternational than ever before.
Schwartzel’s victory Sunday atthe Masters was only the latestexample of worldwide parity ingolf.
For the first time since 1994— and only the second since theMasters began in 1934 — non-American players hold the fourmajor championships. GraemeMcDowell of Northern Irelandwon the U.S. Open last summerat Pebble Beach, followed byLouis Oosthuizen of SouthAfrica at the British Open andMartin Kaymer of Germany atthe PGA Championship.
“The world is big,”Schwartzel said after the thirdround. “America is big, but theworld is bigger. There’s morepeople. It might change again.There’s just a bunch of goodplayers out there from the Eu-ropean Tour and even Asia.”
Schwartzel is not a latebloomer in the game.
His father has a chicken farmin Vereeniging, near Pretoria,and he played golf three times aweek.
Bonds waitsas jurydeliberatessecond dayBy Ronald BlumAssociated Press writer
SAN FRANCISCO — Barry Bonds is going tohave a longer wait for his verdict.
The jury considering four felony counts againstthe home run king deliberated without a conclu-sion for the second day Monday. The eight womenand four men,who started their discussions on Fri-day before a weekend break, will resume workTuesday morning.
The gap between closing argu-ments and verdict has grownlonger than the gap betweenBonds’ record-tying and record-breaking home runs in 2007. Theformer MVP broke Hank Aaron’shome run record on Aug.7 when hehit No.756,three days after match-ing Aaron.
Bonds, who also holds the single-season homerun mark of 73, is charged with three counts ofmaking false statements to a grand jury in 2003 andone count of obstruction of justice.He’s accused oflying when he denied receiving steroids and humangrowth hormone from personal trainer Greg An-derson, and for saying he allowed only doctors togive him an injection.
For those trying to get a peek into the jury’sthoughts, the panel has made requests to reheartwo pieces of evidence that both center on the in-jection count.
On Friday, the jurors asked to hear a replay of the2003 secret recording made by former Bonds busi-ness partner Steve Hoskins in which Andersontalks about injecting the slugger. Before the re-sumption of deliberations Monday,the panel spent71 minutes hearing a clerk read back the March 31testimony of Bonds’ former personal shopperKathy Hoskins — Steve’s sister. She testified thatshe saw Anderson inject Bonds near the navel in2002, becoming the only one of 25 witnesses at thetrial to claim firsthand knowledge of Bonds beinginjected.
“This was very damaging testimony that con-trasted starkly with his denials of steroid use thatare the heart of this perjury case,”said legal observ-er Joshua Berman, a former prosecutor who is nowa criminal defense attorney in Washington D.C.
However, it’s impossible to discern how many ofthe 12 jurors are focusing on that testimony andwhether they feel the injection answer was materi-al,or in layman’s terms,important,to the grand ju-ry’s investigation. To convict Bonds of making afalse statement, the jury must find both that whatBonds said was a lie and one that had an effect onthe grand jury.

A seventh-grade move fromTexas to Utah wasn’t the onlybig step in Parker Morin’s jour-ney to the College of SouthernIdaho.
The two-time first-team all-state player at Park City HighSchool fell in love with theTwin Falls campus on a visitthat he nearly didn’t get tomake.
“I was playing on an acade-my team in Utah, and we weregoing to play at CSI. We didn’t
have enough money or a car,but somehow my dad figuredout how to get a rental car so wecould go,” Morin said. “As soonas we got here I noticed that thefield was really nice and wedrove around the campus and Ireally liked it. Right then I knewthat this was going on the list ofplaces I wanted to play at.”

Schwartzel was a toddlerwhen his father and ErnieEls played together in ateam event they won at alocal club in South Africa.He would caddie for his fa-ther in Wednesday andSaturday games, and they
played together on Friday.“And that’s how it start-
ed,” Schwartzel said.As a teenager, he took
part in Els’ junior programthat traveled around thecountry to compete. An-other kid from the otherside of the country, Oost-
huizen, also was part ofthat program. Oosthuizenhoisting a claret jug lastsummer at St.Andrews didnot go unnoticed.
“That was a huge inspi-ration,” Schwartzel said.“We grew up togetherfrom a young age. We
played every single teamevent, and we representedSouth Africa for so long.We basically are the bestof mates. So we knowwhere our level of golf is,and just to see him do itmade me realize that it’spossible.”

stealers than any other catcher in theconference. And his teenage movecertainly isn’t what made MajorLeague Baseball scouts start to takenotice or bring around an opportu-nity to play in the Pacific-12 Confer-ence next year.
Morin credits those stats and ac-colades to three things: A renewedcommitment to hard work, a not-so-subtle push from the CSI coach-ing staff and a one-time challengerwho left us too soon.
After a tough start to his fresh-man season, Morin was summonedinto CSI coach Boomer Walker’s of-fice for a heart to heart. There wasno denying Morin had talent, butthere was much more he had tolearn to be successful.
“Maybe a few weeks sooner thanthis time last year, I mentioned to(Morin) that, ‘For you to get greatopportunities, you’re going to haveto get yourself in better shape, getstronger, and spend a lot more timedeveloping your game,’” Walkersaid. “He came from an unexposedarea and he just needed to make upfor some of that lack of experiencewith hard work. Fifty percent ofpeople — and maybe not even thatmany — really trust in that fact and
take it to heart and get after it. WithParker, from that day forward I’veseen a new player.”
Morin went from being the typeof player who shows up and gets hiswork in to a guy you can’t chase outof the facility no matter how hardyou try. That made his batting aver-age, and his overall level of play,skyrocket.
“By the time regionals rolledaround (last season), I thought hewas our best player,” Walker said.
Much of that is owed to Morin’sfocus and determination to be aleader by example to a young Gold-en Eagle team — CSI is heavy onsophomores in the pitching staffbut all but four position players arefreshmen. The rest comes out of arespect for Devon Austin thatlingers even though Austin’s nothere to see it.
The Eagles recruited Austin, acatcher from Coeur d’Alene whowas Idaho’s prep player of the yearin 2010 and a late-round draftee ofthe Chicago Cubs, as another tal-ented player to boost the club as awhole — not necessarily as a directthreat to supplant Morin. Nonethe-less, the incumbent starting catchertook it as a challenge and set aboutdoing everything he could to keep
his spot in the lineup.Austin died in a late-night car ac-
cident Sept. 12, 2010. But Morincontinues to learn from his briefstint alongside his fallen teammate.
“He still motivates me. His jer-sey’s still in the dugout, and I give ita touch. He was the one who mademe work harder every day,” Morinsaid. “Once we got to the spring, Ifelt to the point where I’m morelevel-headed. I’m realizingthere’s always another pitch, an-other game. I can’t let myself getout of control when somethingdoesn’t go my way. There’s alwaysanother chance and I’m verythankful to have that chance. Ihave to make the most of it, be-cause I don’t want to have any re-grets anymore.”
Said Walker: “I think Parker wouldhave had the same type of season,but I know it would have been moreof a mentorship than a fierce rivalry(between him and Austin). The im-pact that (the accident) had on Park-er, from a baseball sense only, wasthat ‘I’ve got to work five times hard-er now because I’m probably goingto have to catch all the games thisyear.’
“He’s been a man on a missionevery single day.”

MorinContinued from Sports 1
Boomer Walker had achat. The academy coachtold Walker that therewere two catchers, Morinand another that was al-ready committed to afour-year school. Walkerreally liked both as far asrecruitment went.
“I heard him say the onethat’s going to be in thered catching gear was al-ready committed. So aswe go through the day, Ireally like that kid in thered gear. And the other kid
I thought, ‘He’s just OK.’So we moved on, too badwe didn’t have a chance atthat other kid, there’s noreason to even talk tohim,” Walker said. “Aweek before we went toArizona (for a showcaseevent) I was talking totheir coach again and hesaid, ‘I never heard backfrom you on the Morinkid.’
“I said the kid we reallyliked was the kid in the redcatching gear and he’scommitted, and he said,
‘No, that’s the Morinkid!’”
At that Arizona eventWalker met Morin for thefirst time. Morin recalledthe moment as if it hadjust happened.
“I remember (Walker)introducing himself to meand I was overjoyed,”Morin said. “I think Ioverplayed that game, tobe honest. I tried so hardto impress him and playcatcher like he’d neverseen it played before, be-cause I knew how badly I
wanted to come here.”Morin’s only real suitors
were CSI and Central Ari-zona, and CSI was theoverwhelming favorite inMorin’s eyes. But CentralArizona was pressing hardfor an answer, and he did-n’t enjoy the visit as muchas he did coming to CSI.
Eventually, the matchwas made, and the GoldenEagles have benefitedgreatly from the sequenceof random strangeness.

playoffs, I want to win a championship.”She helped UConn win a record 90-straight
