Why did the militaryengage Gadhafi's forces?Ben Rhodes, a deputy nation-al security adviser, said theU.S. acted because of the“imminent threat” of a hu-manitarian crisis in Libya. Ifcoalition forces did not en-gage, the U.S. governmentfeared that civilians would bein danger.

BOISE — Idaho schools with de-clining enrollment may have a newfriend in Sen. Dean Mortimer.

The Idaho Falls Republican toldthe Times-News that he’s workingon a compromise of legislation thateliminated school districts’ one-year safety net that provides 99 percent of the prior year’s fund-ing when attendance drops.

That safety net was axed whenGov. C.L. “Butch” Otter signed in-to law two of three education re-form bills brought forth this ses-sion by public schools chief TomLuna. Its elimination has been asource of concern among schoolofficials and educators, who have

long viewed the funding as a valu-able tool for planning and avoidinglayoffs in the first year of an unex-pected enrollment decline.

It also comes as the Idaho SchoolBoards Association warns itsmembers that trying to kill thethird reworked bill of Luna’s “Stu-dents Come First” plan could leadto the loss of that compromise.

already been signed into law,this change would need to bea trailer bill,amending it.

Mortimer said his potentialbill could be a one-year ex-tension, restoring only part ofthe funding schools receivewhen attendance drops.

“I think there’s alwaysbeen a little bit of concern onthe part of education stake-holders,” he said of the exist-ing plan’s elimination of thesafety net. “It’s a prettyabrupt shift.”

Luna’s education overhaulestimates the state wouldsave $5.4 million by elimi-nating the one-year protec-tion and allowing school dis-tricts to fire and give state-funded severance packagesto teachers when enrollmentdrops.

Mortimer declined to givea specific percentage of thesafety net he’d like to pre-serve, saying he’s crunchingnumbers and weighing op-tions. If he proposes a bill, it

will come this week,he said.School board trustees are

treading carefully. In anemail to school boards sentSaturday, Karen Echeverria,ISBA’s executive director,wrote that the organizationhad been told there wouldlikely be consequences to op-posing the reworked thirdpiece of Luna’s plan.

“There are many legisla-tors and others who are sup-portive of the bill,” she wrote.“While we are not trying tochange your opinion of thebill or discourage you fromtaking any action you feel isnecessary, we want you toknow that we have been

warned that school districtswill face some consequencesshould we work to kill thisbill.”

Besides losing the one-year funding net compro-mise, other potential lossesinclude money for increasedmath and science require-ments and funding for theIdaho Digital Learning Acad-emy,she wrote.

Mortimer said that re-questing support for thethird Luna bill hasn’t beenpart of his discussions con-cerning school funding.

Echeverria didn’t namespecific legislators or officialsin her email and declined to

do such to the Times-News.She said her email is part ofthe process in a legislativesession of “trading,” whichshe described as “I’ll give yousome if you give me some.”

Others didn’t take it thatway.

Stressing he wasn’t speak-ing for the school district,Twin Falls School BoardTrustee Kenney Young saidhis personal opinion afterreading the email is that leg-islators aren’t open to dis-agreements.

“They’re trying to hold ushostage and it’s this or else,”Young said. “My way or thehighway.”

Idaho House passesCAFO secrecy bill Times-News

BOISE — The Housepassed with a 61-7 vote onMonday a bill that wouldkeep under wraps more in-formation about dairy nu-trient management plans,including some of the in-formation that appears oninspection reports.

The bill, sponsored byRep. Judy Boyle, R-Mid-vale, comes on the heels of acritical report on the dairyindustry that an environ-mental watchdog group is-sued using inspection re-ports. Nutrient manage-

ment plans detail how ani-mal waste from large facili-ties is disposed of.

Boyle contended that theinformation is a privatebusiness matter because itinvolves information likefields where dairy waste isput, and the amountspread.

Rep. Wendy Jaquet, D-Ketchum, was among thoseopposed, citing concernsabout the bill hamperingcounties’ ability to monitorconfined-animal feedlotoperations.

The bill still needs to passthe Senate.

potential savings.Consolidation-based sa-

vings aren’t listed as an op-tion to cut costs for the Lu-na plan in the upcomingfiscal year, which starts inJuly. But for fiscal year 2013,which covers the 2012-2013school year, the educationoverhaul has a price tag of$60.6 million. Withoutconsolidation, other esti-mated savings in the plantotal just $49.95 million forthat year.

That leaves a hole of$10.74 million that law-makers in the 2012 sessionwill need to find money for— about the same amountas changing the funding forthose seven counties wouldsave.

Of course, much couldhappen between now andnext session. Luna’s not aproponent of forced con-solidation, financial esti-mates will likely change,and legislators — often re-luctant to overstep thebounds of local control —could always look for othersources to fill that gap.

“I still think consolidationis really unlikely because itflies in the face of what com-munities want,” said Rep.Stephen Hartgen, R-TwinFalls. “Communities wanttheir own schools.”

Local school officialshave questions about howmuch savings could befound with fewer superin-tendents, but said they are

always open to ways theycould practically cut costsby combining services.

Wendell and Goodingschool districts, for exam-ple, are studying potentialways they could combineservices to save money.Wendell SuperintendentGreg Lowe said possibili-ties include sharing alter-native programs and pro-fessional technology.

Superintendents insmaller districts common-ly wear many hats. InLowe’s case, he’s also fed-eral programs director,special education directorand curriculum director.

Gooding SuperintendentHeather Williams said anydiscussion of consolidationwould need to look at morethan just money saved.

“We need to see and talkabout beyond just dollarsand cents,” she said.“There’s got to be a balancebetween quality and effi-ciencies.”

Filer School District Su-perintendent John Grahamsaid if consolidation oc-curs, it’s important forschool boards to have rep-resentation from all thecommunities in a schooldistrict.

Not all service consoli-dations work out. About 10years ago, school districtsin Buhl, Filer and Castle-ford shared a curriculumdirector, an effort that waslater abandoned, Grahamsaid.

WWhhaatt iitt wwoouulldd ddoo:: When districts consolidate, professional devel-opment, supplies and transportation move under the sameumbrella. The decision of whether to consolidate could bemade locally, but funding would be reduced for smaller districtsthat kept their independence.

PPrrooppoonneennttss ssaayy:: The move would have money-saving optionsand create more efficiency.

OOppppoonneennttss ssaayy:: Consolidation would force schools to lose identi-ty and local control.

cheering crowd.A police escort and a group

of about 75 fans welcomed theGolden Eagles home Monday,waiting for the returning vic-tors at the college’s gym.

The excitement was tangi-ble — the last time the CSImen won a national champi-onship was in 1987.

Gosar said the feeling ofcoming home after an amaz-ing couple of days of playingball was unbelievable.

“Whoever said you had todie to go to heaven never cutdown the net at a nationalchampionship,” he said. “It’sa great reward. This is thebest team in the country thisyear.”

Gosar said he received 207text messages on his phone onFriday night and hasn’t evenhad the chance to read throughall of them, much less look atSaturday’s messages.

CSI cheerleader coach Car-Lee Nelson said watching theteam’s win was an incredible,

surreal experience.“They were so humble the

whole time. They kept com-plete composure and playedwith respect,” she said. “Ithink that is why they did sowell.”

Team members stayed out-side for a few minutes, lettingfans and friends wrap them upin a good ol’ hometown wel-come, before moving insidefor a few words of welcomeand acknowledgement.

Freshman guard TerranceLafayette said the win broughttears to his eyes.

“This is like a dream cometrue and we finally did it,” hesaid. “Everything just fell intoplace.”

Tournament Most Valu-able Player Pierre Jacksonsaid he would head home forLas Vegas on Monday night,as this week is spring break atCSI. He said the MVP awardwas an honor, but not bigenough to overshadow histeam’s win.

“It’s not too big for me. If I

hadn’t of gotten it, I wouldhave been just as excited rightnow,” he said, adding that hereceived many calls from re-cruiters after the game on Sat-urday.

Gosar thanked the fans, ad-ministration, cheerleaders,supporters, wives and every-one else who supported theteam through the years he hasbeen at CSI.

His wife, Lu Gosar, lookedon as her husband answered

questions and received slapson the back. Her sons Jake, 3,and Jaxon, 2, held tightly totheir father’s hand and leg.

“It’s been surreal. You al-most have to pinch yourself tobelieve it,”she said.“I told Jakethat Daddy won the biggestprize of all.”

The Twin Falls man ac-cused of a stabbing near the360 Main St. Bistro &Lounge downtown willspend nearly three years instate prison.

Wesley J. Firpo was sen-tenced Monday to 10 years’incarceration, with the pos-sibility for parole in twoyears, for the Septemberstabbing of Christopher L.Lewis, who allegedly caughtFirpo breaking into a friend’scar. Twin Falls County 5thDistrict Judge Randy Stokeralso ordered Firpo to paynearly $18,000 in restitutionfor hospital bills and lostwages in relation to Lewis’injury. Lewis was stabbed inthe stomach but made a fullrecovery.

Firpo, 40, pleaded guiltyto aggravated battery withthe use of a deadly weapon inJanuary, and a charge of bur-glary was dismissed.

This latest felony causedJudge Randy Stoker to alsore-impose sentence on a pri-or conviction — three to fiveyears for an auto theft casefrom 2006. The re-imposedsentence and new sentencewill run concurrently. Also,Firpo will receive credit fortime served in Twin FallsCounty Jail; that amounthad yet to be calculated.

Judge orders Langdonto pay $100K

Tina Langdon owes herformer employers the$100,000 she embezzledplus interest.

Judge Randy Stokerweighed whether he shouldput Langdon in prison forfelony grand theft or keepher out so she could re-paythe people she victimized.He settled for the latter dur-ing her sentencing on Mon-day in Twin Falls County 5thDistrict Court.

“If you have to work onejob or two jobs or three, Idon’t care,” Stoker said.

Langdon, 38, pleadedguilty in December, nearlysix years after she beganwhat prosecutors called a“shell game” with companyfunds belonging to John andDiane Johnson, owners ofPractical Used Cars in TwinFalls.

In addition to repaying themoney, Stoker sentencedLangdon to 14 years in prisonwith the possibility for pa-role after five. He retainedjurisdiction over the case forone year, after which he mayorder a lengthy probationary

period during which Lang-don must make payments.

For the 2011 fiscal year, thepayments will carry a 5.375percent interest rate, set bythe Idaho state treasurer.

BLISS — Bliss residentswere treated to a blast fromthe past Wednesday eveningthanks to Clayton Schoessler,who hosted an open house forvisitors to see his recentlycompleted Eagle Scout proj-ect.

The project is a compilationof class photos from BlissHigh School from 1946 topresent. Each year’s photoshave been similarly formattedand identically framed, thenmounted inside a rack alongthe top of the hallwaythroughout the high school.

Schoessler said he chosethis particular project becauseit was something that meant alot to the community and wasa needed addition for theschool.

Schoessler was in secondgrade when he saw a recruit-ment flier from an area scouttroop and decided he wantedto be a Boy Scout. Becausethere is no functioning troopin Bliss, he’s traveled toHagerman, Gooding andmost recently Buhl on theroad to getting his Eagle Scoutaward.

Schoessler began work onthe project in December of2010 and gathered a team of16 people, including family,friends, fellow Scouts andteachers. The Bliss SchoolBoard considered the $2,000price tag Schloessler deter-mined the project to have andagreed to come up with thedifference after fundraisingefforts.

Schloessler received dona-

tions from community mem-bers and solicited discountsfrom vendors, raising $1,685of the project total.

“Most people were excitedto donate,” Schoessler said.“There’s a lot of family historyin these pictures for mosteveryone in town.”

The project includes 70framed pictures,with mount-ing space and empty framesfor another 25 years of gradu-

ating classes.“I know someone in at least

one of the pictures from everysingle year,” Schoessler said,pointing out his uncles,grandparents, brother andother family members.

Those attending the openhouse Wednesday were doingthe same thing: pointing outcousins, aunts, uncles andmore in the old photos nowgracing the walls of Bliss HighSchool.

“Even most of the youngerkids here can find a familymember up on the wall,”Schoessler’s uncle Mike El-liott said, pointing out hisown dad in a picture from1960.“And the school is reallybehind this project.I think thesuperintendent has been justas excited as Clay has!”

“I don’t think I’ve ever hadmore fun in my whole life,”Schoessler said. “This willstay with me the rest of mylife. I’ll come back in 70 yearsand be able to say that I didthis.”

Pepstat 380® StopsHeartburn Forever

139 Main Ave. W. 733-8323

WASHINGTON —Gastrointes-tinal (GI) problems like acid re-flux, heartburn and ulcers may beeliminated with a new type ofchewable tablet. Scientists saythat GI problems are not the resultof excess acid, but the body’sinability to deal with it. Pepstat380 is a patent-pending formulathat contains an extract known asDGL that strengthens the body’snatural defenses against acid. Pepstat goes to work immedi-ately on stomach acid while ad-dressing the cause of GI problems.Scientists say that the DGL inPepstat improves the body’s pro-tective substances, increases thelifespan of digestive tract cells,inhibits the H. pylori bacteria thatcan cause ulcers and improvesblood supply to the area. Articleshave appeared in publications likethe British medical journal TheLancet showing DGL to be aseffective as Zantac® orTagamet®. Pepstat also worksfaster than Prilosec® andPrevacid®. Pepstat may makethese drugs obsolete because DGLhas no known side effects. Studyresults and additional informationcan be found at key2health.com. Pepstat 380 is a natural alter-native and is available without aprescription or call 1-800-339-3301. Available locally at:

Cool Season Grass Tips

Cool-season grasses are those grasses that grow primarily during the spring and fall of the year. h ese grasses become dormant during the hottest portion of the summer and during the coldest part of the winter. Cool-season grasses generally maintain some green color year around except under extreme heat and cold. Included in the category of cool-season grasses are tall fescue, bluegrass, turf type fescue, perennial ryegrass and mixtures of any of these grasses.

Planting a Mixture of grasses are more adaptable to varying growing conditions such as shade, soil moisture and temperature. A mixture of grasses also increases the chance of survival from turf diseases since mixtures have varying levels of resistance to diff erent diseases.

Best Time to Seed is from mid-August to mid-October, depending on the location in the state. Seeding in the spring is generally not satisfactory since young seedlings do not have enough time to develop a root system capable of providing needed moisture before hot, dry summer weather arrives. If you must seed in the spring, you may want to consider a temporary cover, such as annual ryegrass, until the fall. Another option would be to seed the cool-season grass with the intent of coming back in the fall and over seeding the areas that do not survive. Next

week warm season grass tips.

House votes to keep dairy records secretBOISE — The House voted 61-7 to allow dairies to keep secret the

details of how they manage their cows’ waste.Monday’s vote to make Idaho dairies’ nutrient management plans

exempt from disclosure under the state Public Records Act sends themeasure to the Senate.

The Idaho Dairymen’s Association has raised concern about anactivist group, Idaho Concerned Area Residents for the Environment,obtaining those plans to harass dairies.

Bob Naerebout, the Dairymen’s Association’s director, says any vio-lations found during dairy inspections would remain public

Rep. Wendy Jaquet, a central Idaho Democrat, voted against the meas-ure, saying counties like Gooding that have seen an influx of large dairiesover the last two decades fear the changes could make it more difficult tokeep tabs on large agricultural operations that impact water quality.

Final Connecting Idaho installment OK’dBOISE — House lawmakers marked the end of an era Monday, vot-

ing 42-28 for the final installment of the $855 million “Connecting

Idaho’’ road-building program whose debt provisions made it one ofthe most disputed programs in state history when it was begun sixyears ago.

This year’s money goes to two stretches of U.S. Highway 95 in north-ern Idaho near Sandpoint and Worley, as well as improvements to stateHighway 16 to help link Emmett to Interstate 84 in southwestern Idaho.

Connecting Idaho has been disputed since 2005, when then-Gov.Dirk Kempthorne proposed selling bonds to construct roads morequickly than with annual appropriations, improving safety and speed-ing over-the-road commerce. That riled not only anti-debt conserva-tives, but also served to highlight the provincial animosities that domi-nate Idaho’s highway debate, as lawmakers in regions that haven’t got-ten projects felt they got a raw deal.

“It’s loved by representatives that have a project in the area, theyalways love this,” said Rep. Leon Smith, R-Twin Falls and a critic, duringMonday’s debate. “And it’s loved by ITD because it allows them to buildprojects.”

Though the funding still must survive the Senate, lawmakers therehave historically passed the bill more willingly than their House coun-terparts.

Observers of Monday’s House debate could hear the relief in somerepresentatives’ voices at finally washing their hands of having to voteannually on the program.

“This is the last corridor — this is it,” said Rep. Maxine Bell,R-Jerome. “I’ve held my nose and voted for this ever since(Kempthorne) brought this up.”

Man arrested after incident with repo manPOCATELLO — Pocatello police have arrested a man after a repos-

session agent reported the suspect crashed into his car and ran overhis foot as he escaped.

KIFI-TV reports 31-year-old Jacque Carr was arrested Saturday aftertrying to prevent his car from being repossessed.

Police say Carr got into his vehicle, backed up into the repo man’svehicle and drove off, running over the repossession agent’s foot.

Carr was arrested and taken to the Bannock County jail. He facescharges for aggravated battery and leaving the scene of an acci-dent.

ZWITINA, Libya (AP) —Coalition forces bombardedLibya for a third straightnight Monday, targeting theair defenses and forces ofLibyan ruler MoammarGhadafi, stopping his ad-vances and handing somemomentum back to therebels, who were on theverge of defeat just lastweek.

But the rebellion’s moreorganized military unitswere still not ready, and theopposition disarray under-scored U.S. warningsthat a long stalematecould emerge.

The air campaignby U.S. and Europeanmilitaries has un-questionably re-arranged the map inLibya and rescuedrebels from the im-mediate threat they facedonly days ago of beingcrushed under a powerfuladvance by Gadhafi’s forces.The first round of airstrikessmashed a column of regimetanks that had been movingon the rebel capital of Beng-hazi in the east.

Monday night, Libyanstate TV said a new round ofstrikes had begun in thecapital, Tripoli, marking thethird night of bombard-ment. But while theairstrikes can stop Gadhafi’stroops from attacking rebelcities — in line with the U.N.mandate to protect civilians— the United States, atleast, appeared deeply re-luctant to go beyond thattoward actively helping therebel cause to oust theLibyan leader.

President Barack Obamasaid Monday that “it is U.S.policy that Gadhafi has togo.’’ But, he said, the inter-national air campaign has amore limited goal, to protectcivilians.

“Our military action is insupport of an internationalmandate from the SecurityCouncil that specifically fo-cuses on the humanitarianthreat posed by Col. Gad-hafi to his people. Not onlywas he carrying out mur-ders of civilians but hethreatened more,’’ the pres-ident said on a visit to Chile.

In Washington, theAmerican general runningthe assault said there is noattempt to provide air coverfor rebel operations. Gen.Carter Ham said Gadhafimight cling to power oncethe bombardment finishes,setting up a stalemate be-tween his side and therebels, with allied nationsenforcing a no-fly zone toensure he cannot attackcivilians.

At the United NationsMonday, the SecurityCouncil turned down a re-quest by Libya for an emer-gency session. Libya want-ed “an emergency meetingin order to halt this aggres-sion.’’

Henri Guaino, a top ad-viser to the French presi-dent, said the allied effortwould last “a while yet.’’

Among the rebels, aswell, there was a realizationthat fighting could bedrawn out. MohammedAbdul-Mullah, a 38-year-old civil engineer fromBenghazi who was fightingwith the rebel force, saidgovernment troops stopped

all resistance after the in-ternational campaign be-gan.

“The balance haschanged a lot,’’ he said.“But pro-Gadhafi forcesare still strong. They are aprofessional military andthey have good equipment.Ninety percent of us rebelsare civilians, while Gad-hafi’s people are profes-sional fighters.’’

Disorganization amongthe rebels could also ham-per their attempts to ex-

ploit the turn ofevents. Since theuprising began, theopposition hasbeen made up ofdisparate groupseven as it took con-trol of the entireeast of the country.

Regular citizens— residents of the “liberat-ed’’ areas — took up armsand formed a ragtag, highlyenthusiastic but highlyundisciplined force that inthe past weeks has chargedahead to fight Gadhafiforces, only to be beatenback by superior firepower.Regular army units thatjoined the rebellion haveproven stronger, more or-ganized fighters, but only afew units have joined thebattles while many havestayed behind as officersstruggle to get together of-ten antiquated, limitedequipment and form a co-ordinated force.

Discord also plagued thecoalition. The U.S. was ea-ger to pass leadership off,but the allies were deeplydevided on the issue.Turkey was adamantlyagainst NATO takingcharge, while Italy hintedMonday it would stop al-lowing use of its airfields ifthe veteran alliance is notgiven the leadership. Ger-many and Russia also criti-cized the way the mission isbeing carried out.

In Libya, a “political lead-ership’’ has formed amongthe rebels, made up of for-mer members of Gadhafi’sregime who defected alongwith prominent local figuresin the east, such as lawyersand doctors. The impromp-tu nature of their leadershiphas left some in the West —particularly in the UnitedStates — unclear on who therebels are that the interna-tional campaign is protect-ing.

Despite strikes,conflict could dragon, analysts warn

No quick fix seen for nuclear plantFUKUSHIMA, Japan

(AP) — Officials are racingto restore electricity toJapan’s leaking nuclearplant, but getting thepower flowing will hardlybe the end of their battle:With its mangled ma-chinery and partly meltedreactor cores, bringing thecomplex under control is amonstrous job.

Restoring the power toall six units at the tsuna-mi-damaged complex iskey, because it will, in the-ory, drive the maze of mo-tors, valves and switchesthat help deliver coolingwater to the overheatedreactor cores and spentfuel pools that are leakingradiation.

Ideally, officials believeit should only take a day toget the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear under controlonce the cooling systemsare up and running. But itcould take days or weeksto get those systemsworking.

“We have experienced avery huge disaster thathas caused very largedamage at a nuclear pow-er generation plant on ascale that we had not ex-pected,’’ HidehikoNishiyama, deputy direc-tor general of Japan’s Nu-clear and Industrial SafetyAgency, told reporters lateMonday.

The nuclear plant’scooling systems werewrecked by the massiveearthquake and tsunamithat devastated north-eastern Japan on March 11.Since then, conditions atthe plant have beenvolatile; plumes of smokerose from two reactor

units Monday, promptingworkers to evacuate units 1-4.

The crews resumed thework early Tuesday, plantspokesman Motoyasu Tam-aki said.

In another setback, theplant’s operator said Mon-day it had just discoveredthat some of the cooling sys-tem’s key pumps at the com-plex’s troubled Unit 2 are nolonger functional — mean-ing replacements have to bebrought in. Tokyo ElectricPower Co. said it placed

emergency orders for newpumps, but it was unclearhow long it would take forthem to arrive.

If officials can get thepower turned on, get the re-placement pumps workingand get enough seawater in-to the reactors and spent fuelpools, it would only take aday to bring the tempera-tures back to a safe, coolingstage, said Ryohei Shiomi, anofficial with the Nuclear andIndustrial Safety Agency.

And if not?“There is nothing else we

can do but keep doing whatwe’ve been doing,’’ Shiomisaid.

In other words, officialswould continue dousing theplant in seawater — andhope for the best.

An official of the U.S. Nu-clear Regulatory Commis-sion said in Washington thatUnits 1, 2 and 3 have all seendamage to their reactorcores, but that containmentis intact. The assessmentdispels some concerns aboutUnit 2, where an explosiondamaged a pressure-reduc-ing chamber around the bot-tom of the reactor core.

“I would say optimistical-ly that things appear to be onthe verge of stabilizing,’’ saidBill Borchardt, the commis-sion’s executive director foroperations.

What caused the smoke tobillow first from Unit 3 andthen from Unit 2 on Mondaywas under investigation, nu-clear safety agency officialssaid. In the days since theearthquake and tsunami,both units have overheatedand seen explosions outsidetheir reactor cores.

NNo one thought theInterstate 35Wbridge across the

Mississippi River in Min-neapolis would collapse. Noone thought the Gulf ofMexico would be fouled tothe horrible extent that itwas by the BP oil spill. Theawful convergence of disas-ters in Japan — a 9.0 earth-quake followed by a tsunamiand a devastating nuclearpower emergency — seemedalmost unimaginable.

Worst-case scenarios un-fold more frequently thanwe’d like to believe, whichleads to two major questionsregarding nuclear powerthat Americans have an ob-ligation to answer.

First, can a disaster com-parable to the one in Japanhappen here? The answer, ofcourse, is yes — whethercaused by an earthquake orsome other event or series ofevents. Nature is unpre-dictable and human beingsare fallible. It could happen.

So the second question iswhether it makes sense tofollow through on plans toincrease our reliance on nu-clear power, thus heighten-ing the risk of a terribleproblem occurring here inthe United States. Is that arisk worth taking?

Concern over globalwarming has increased theappeal of nuclear power,which does not produce thehigh levels of greenhousegases that come from fossilfuels. But there has been apersistent tendency to ig-nore the toughest questionsposed by nuclear power:What should be done withthe waste? What are theconsequences of a cata-

strophic accident in a popu-lated area? How safe are theplants, really? Why wouldtaxpayers have to shoulderso much of the financial riskof expanding the nation’snuclear power capacity, aneffort that would be wildlyexpensive?

A big part of the problemat Japan’s Fukushima Dai-ichi power station are thehighly radioactive spent fuelrods kept in storage pools atthe plant. What to do, ulti-mately, with such danger-ous waste material is thenuclear power questionwithout an answer. Nuclearadvocates and public offi-cials don’t talk about itmuch. Denial is the defaultposition when it comes tonuclear waste.

In New York, Gov. An-drew Cuomo said again thisweek that the 40-year-oldIndian Point nuclear powerplant in Westchester Coun-ty, 35 miles north of NewYork City, should be closed.Try to imagine the difficul-ty, in the event of an emer-gency, of evacuating suchan area with its millions ofresidents.“This plant in thisproximity to New York Citywas never a good risk,” said

the governor.The 104 commercial nu-

clear plants in the U.S. aregetting old, and many havehad serious problems overthe years. There have beendozens of instances since1979, the year of the ThreeMile Island accident, inwhich nuclear reactors havehad to be shut down formore than a year for safetyreasons.

Building new plants,which the Obama adminis-tration favors, can bebreathtakingly expensiveand requires governmentloan guarantees. Banks arenot lining up to lend moneyon their own for construc-tion of the newest genera-tion of Indian Points.

In addition to the inherentrisks with regard to safetyand security, the nuclear in-dustry has long been notori-ous for sky-high construc-tion costs, feverish cost-overruns and projects thateventually are abandoned.The Union of ConcernedScientists, in a 2009 analysisof the costs associated withnuclear plant construction,said that once a plant cameonline it usually led to sig-nificant rate increases

for customers:“Ratepayers bore well

over $200 billion (in today’sdollars) in cost overruns forcompleted nuclear plants. Inthe 1990s, legislators andregulators also allowed utili-ties to recover most ‘strand-ed costs’ — the differencebetween utilities’ remaininginvestments in nuclearplants and the market valueof those plants — as statesissued billions of dollars inbonds backed by ratepayercharges to pay for utilities’above-market investments.”

The refrain here is famil-iar: “The total cost toratepayers, taxpayers andshareholders stemmingfrom cost overruns, can-celed plants and strandedcosts exceeded $300 billionin today’s dollars.”

Nuclear power is hardlythe pristine, economical,unambiguous answer to thenation’s energy needs andglobal warming concerns. Itoffers benefits and big-timeshortcomings. Ultimately,the price may be much toohigh.

WWe’re a nation ofsavvy shoppers,and we expect

that details about the prod-ucts we buy will be readilyavailable to us.Want to knowwhere your pants weremade? Look at the label.What about the caloriecount for a Big Mac? Inmany McDonald’s,it’s rightup there on the menu.Andafter making almost anypurchase,we are handed areceipt detailing each itemwe bought,along with theprice.

But when it comes to thelargest purchase a typicalconsumer makes in a givenyear - the amount he or shespends on federal taxes -there’s no detailed record ofthe transaction that comeswith sending that check offto the IRS.

The federal governmentshould explain exactly whereeach person’s tax moneygoes.We need a taxpayer re-ceipt.

A receipt would be easyto create,simple to read and— here’s a word you don’toften associate with the In-ternal Revenue Service —fun.The document weimagine wouldn’t give tax-payers a way to get theirmoney back.But it wouldshow how much you per-sonally spend each year ongovernment programs suchas the FBI,NASA and foreignaid,based on their percent-age of the federal budget.

Here’s how it shouldwork.After filing your taxes,you would receive an item-ized receipt,by e-mail if youfile electronically or by reg-ular mail if you send in paperforms.The one-page docu-ment would cover majoritems such as defense,So-cial Security and interest onthe debt.It would also in-clude the address of a web-site that would offer moreinformation on all federalspending,from salaries formembers of Congress to Pellgrants for higher educationto the upkeep of nationalparks.

The cost of producing this

receipt would be a relativebargain.We estimate that theIRS would have to spendabout $15 million to mail thereceipts to taxpayers.(Two ofthree households file elec-tronically,so their e-receiptswouldn’t cost much to send.)There would be some costsassociated with maintainingthe website,but that’s a smallinvestment for a very worthygoal: clearing up confusionabout the federal budget.

According to a recent Uni-versity of Maryland poll,Americans on average be-lieve that one-fourth of allfederal spending goes to for-eign aid.With a tax receipt,atypical middle-class familywith an income of $50,000and $6,883 in federal incometaxes and payroll taxeswould see that,in reality,on-ly $42.80,or 0.6 percent,oftheir taxes go to foreign aid.

Polling from Third Way,acenter-left think tank,hasshown that three-quartersof the electorate believes thatthe budget deficit can betamed without touching So-cial Security or Medicare.

We have created an onlinecalculator to show how thereceipt would work,avail-able at www.thirdway.org/taxreceipt.Let’s say thatfamily with $6,883 in in-come and payroll taxeswants to know how much ofthat goes to,for instance,theDepartment of Veterans Af-fairs.We determine the de-partment’s budget as a per-centage of the entire federalbudget ($124.1 billion out of$3.7 trillion,or 3.3 percent)and multiply the percentageby taxes paid,to get $229.55.

Scholars have long ex-plored the “identifiable vic-tim effect,’’a concept thatholds that knowing moreabout where your moneygoes increases your satisfac-tion about spending it.Ataxpayer receipt won’t re-duce anyone’s tax burden.But it might reduce the bur-den of paying taxes.

Superintendent thankspeople who worked onschool Cassia Co. bond

At intervals throughout thehistory of the area,the com-munity has addressed schoolfacilities needs.A backwardglance at the past 60 years ofCassia County includes fourbond proposals that weresupported by the communityto provide the facilities neces-sary for school operations.During the early 1950s,a bondprovided for the constructionof a Burley High School,DecloHigh School and a Raft RiverHigh School,along with theAlbion Elementary School.Inthe late 1950s,a separate bondconstructed Dworshak Ele-mentary School.A 1973 bondconstructed Burley JuniorHigh,Declo Elementary andMountain View Elementary.A 10-year plant facilities levyduring the late 1980s provid-ed for the construction ofOakley Elementary,Raft RiverElementary and White PineIntermediate.The 1996 bondconstructed the Burley,Declo,and Oakley high schools andthe Cassia Regional TechnicalCenter.All of these projectswere built with property taxdollars over time.

There is never a good timeto raise taxes,and I am awarethat economic conditions inthe county,state and nationwere factors considered whenvoters cast their ballot onMarch 8.The facility needs

exist and many of those willbecome critical needs in thenear future and will have to beaddressed in some manner.Iam confident the board oftrustees,school personneland community memberswill find acceptable solutionsto the school facility needs.

I want to take this opportu-nity to acknowledge the ef-forts of many individuals indeveloping the bond.Com-munity members and schoolpersonnel began compiling alist of school facility needsand wants in 2006.Once theinitial list of facilities was gen-erated,countless hours ofanalysis occurred as part of arefinement process to narrowand develop the proposal to bepresented to the community.A cross section of communitymembers gave freely of theirtime and expertise to priori-tize and plan projects intend-ed to meet the specific needsthat had been identified.Many people traveled consid-erable distances to visit sitesand speak with individuals tobring the experience of othersto this school district.Thegoal of the entire group was todevelop a bond proposal thatwould address facility needsat a minimal cost to propertytax payers.

I want to thank anyone whoassisted with bond projectconcept development to findsolutions addressing thegreatest needs in each com-munity/school.I am grateful

to the people that made pre-sentations making votersaware of the various projectsproposed throughout theschool district.It takes a lot ofpeople and a great deal of in-put to develop a bond propos-al.I appreciate our communi-ty and I admire all the peoplethat contribute to making thisa great place in which to live.

I currently live in Texas but Iwas born and raised in TwinFalls and still have family liv-ing in there.I have never senta letter in to the editor beforebut I really feel that some-thing needs to be said.I amhoping that I have misunder-stood the article about TwinFalls spending more money toput a committee together todecide on a recreation center.

If I didn’t misunderstand,may I ask why do you thinkyou need to do this? Here inmy newly adopted hometown,our city decided that itneeded a recreation center aswell (there was nothingaround like this),but it knewhow hard and taxing it wouldbe on city funds to run,sothey made a wise decision andchose to form a partnershipwith the YMCA of Greater

San Antonio.We have a beau-tiful building that offersscholarships to lower thecosts for program fees andnever turns anyone away be-cause of an inability to pay.

My suggestion would be towork with the Twin Falls YMCA to make their facilitieslarger and include more kids’areas (you could add a teenroom,a large kids club,moreclasses like body pump,bodycombat,indo-row,andcranking machines,the facili-ty could expand to offer gym-nastics (gross motor skillsclasses) so that everyonecould afford them and notthose that have the money orgive up so much so that onechild can participate.

The YMCA could offer kidsfit classes five times a week freeof charge,also kids zumba,kids yoga,etc.I could go on andon.With all the money you willspend on meetings,planning,etc.,the city could invest in theY.You never know,you mightbe saving a life when you real-ize that the YMCA offered achild a chance to learn how toswim that would not have beenable to pay for the lessons oth-erwise.

Again,I am hoping that thearticle I read was misleadingand that it meant somethingelse altogether.If nothingelse,invest the money backinto the schools where it is al-ways needed and welcomed!

A 2010 FEDERAL TAXPAYER RECEIPT

Can I get a receiptfor those taxes?

FFrom the debates inWisconsin and else-where about public

sector unions, you might getthe impression that we’regoing bust because teachersare overpaid.

That’s a pernicious fallacy.A basic educational chal-lenge is not that teachers areraking it in, but that they areunderpaid. If we want tocompete with other coun-tries, and chip away atpoverty across America,then we need to pay teachersmore so as to attract betterpeople into the profession.

Until a few decades ago,employment discriminationperversely strengthened ourteaching force. Brilliantwomen became elementaryschool teachers, becausebetter jobs weren’t open tothem. It was profoundly un-fair, but the discriminationdid benefit America’s chil-dren.

These days, brilliantwomen become surgeonsand investment bankers —and 47 percent of America’skindergarten through 12th-grade teachers come fromthe bottom one-third oftheir college classes (asmeasured by SAT scores).The figure is from a study byMcKinsey & Company,“Closing the Talent Gap.”

Changes in relative payhave reinforced the problem.In 1970, in New York City, anewly minted teacher at apublic school earned about$2,000 less in salary than astarting lawyer at a promi-nent law firm. These daysthe lawyer takes home, in-cluding bonus, $115,000more than the teacher, theMcKinsey study found.

We all understand intu-itively the difference a greatteacher makes. I think ofJuanita Trantina, who leftmy fifth-grade class intoxi-cated with excitement forlearning and fascinated by

the current events she spokeabout. You probably have aMiss Trantina in your ownpast.

One Los Angeles studyfound that having a teacherfrom the 25 percent most ef-fective group of teachers forfour years in a row would beenough to eliminate theblack-white achievementgap.

Recent scholarship sug-gests that good teachers,even kindergarten teachers,increase their students’earnings many years later.Eric A. Hanushek of Stan-ford University found thatan excellent teacher (one astandard deviation betterthan average, or better than84 percent of teachers) raiseseach student’s lifetime earn-ings by $20,000. If there are20 students in the class, thatis an extra $400,000 gener-ated, compared with ateacher who is merely aver-age.

A teacher better than 93 percent of other teacherswould add $640,000 to life-time pay of a class of 20, thestudy found.

Look, I’m not a fan ofteachers’ unions. They usedtheir clout to gain job securi-ty more than pay, thus mak-ing the field safe for lowachievers. Teaching workrules are often inflexible,benefits are generous rela-tive to salaries, and it is diffi-cult or impossible to dismissteachers who are ineffective.

But none of this meansthat teachers are overpaid.And if governments nibbleaway at pensions and reducejob security, then they must

pay more in wages to stayeven.

Moreover, part of com-pensation is public esteem.When governors mockteachers as lazy, avariciousincompetents, they demeanthe profession and make itharder to attract the best andbrightest. We should be ele-vating teachers, not throw-ing darts at them.

Consider three othercountries renowned for theireducational performance:Singapore, South Korea andFinland. In each country,teachers are drawn from thetop third of their cohort, arehugely respected and arepaid well (although that’sless true in Finland). InSouth Korea and Singapore,teachers on average earnmore than lawyers and engi-neers, the McKinsey studyfound.

“We’re not going to getbetter teachers unless wepay them more,” notes AmyWilkins of the EducationTrust, an education reformorganization. Likewise,Jeanne Allen of the Centerfor Education Reform says,“We’re the first people tosay, throw them $100,000,throw them whatever ittakes.”

Both Wilkins and Allenadd in the next breath thatpay should be for perform-ance, with more rigorousevaluation. That makessense to me.

Starting teacher pay,which now averages$39,000, would have to riseto $65,000 to fill most newteaching positions in high-needs schools with gradu-ates from the top third oftheir classes, the McKinseystudy found. That would bea bargain.

Indeed, it makes sense tocut corners elsewhere toboost teacher salaries. Re-search suggests that stu-dents would benefit from atradeoff of better teachersbut worse teacher-studentratios. Thus there are grow-ing calls for a Japanese mod-el of larger classes, but withoutstanding, respected,well-paid teachers.

Teaching is unusualamong the professions inthat it pays poorly but hasstrong union protectionsand lockstep wage increas-es. It’s a factory model ofcompensation, and criticsare right to fault it. But thebottom line is that weshould pay teachers more,not less — and that politi-cians who falsely lambasteteachers as greedy are sim-ply making it more difficultto attract the kind ofabove-average teachers ourabove-average children de-serve.

It’s spring – time to clean out the gutters and wash

down the windows. This year, why not do some

fi nancial spring cleaning, as well?

First, “dust off” your investment strategy to make

sure it’s still appropriate for your fi nancial situa-

tion and your long-term goals.

Next, “de-clutter” your portfolio by selling those

investments you no longer need, or that are too

similar to others you own. Use the proceeds to

buy new investments that can help you diversify.

Diversifi cation can help reduce the effects of vol-

atility on your portfolio, though it can’t guarantee

gains or prevent losses.

Finally, protect yourself from stormy weather by

ensuring you have adequate disability and life in-

surance. Without this coverage, you could expose

your family to serious fi nancial strains should

anything happen to you.

By doing some fi nancial spring cleaning, you may

fi nd that you’ve swept away some of the obstacles

to achieving your goals.

Legendary bluesmanPinetop Perkins dies

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) —Pinetop Perkins, one of thelast old-school bluesmenwho played with Muddy Wa-ters and became the oldestGrammy winner this year,died Monday at his home ofcardiac arrest.He was 97.

Perkins was having chestpains when he went to take anap and paramedics couldnot revive him, said HughSouthard, Perkins’ agent forthe last 15 years.

The piano man playedwith an aggressive style andsang with a distinctive grav-

Death notices are on Main 7of today’s paper

By Blair KochTimes-News writer

Since December of 2009, PatScheidt has been hard at workcarving out a name for himselfand the craft beers he produces.

Scheidt,owner and brewmasterof Von Scheidt Brewing Companyin Twin Falls, is considered a mi-crobrewer.

His production is less than 100barrels of beer a year — a smallamount compared to the hun-dreds of billions of barrels madeeach year by commercial brew-ers.

The Brewer’s Employment andExcise Relief (BEER) Act, intro-duced on March 9 by U.S. Sens.Mike Crapo and John Kerry,D-Mass., would help small beerbrewers like Scheidt by reducingcurrent excise tax rates.

“It would reduce my tax byabout half,” Scheidt told theTimes-News on Monday. “We’removing forward toward expand-ing but doing it dollar by dollar.”

“Like any private business,craftbrewing is all about supply anddemand,” Crapo said in a press re-lease. “In touring Idaho last year, Imet with many craft brewers whoare seeking to expand their busi-ness because they are seeing in-creased demand for their product.In addition, this legislation willexpand the ready markets for ourbarley, wheat and hops producersin Idaho. I remain optimistic thisbill will pass this year to createnew jobs and new markets.”

Scheidt, who operates on askeleton crew at 157 Second Ave.W. in Twin Falls, said the savingswouldn’t be enough for him tohire additional help immediately

but said the bill may spur compe-tition locally.

“I’d love to see additional brew-ers come into the area,” he said.“Competition is a great thing. Itgives you something to work to-wards.”

On a national level, the billwould free up nearly $50 million ayear. Instead of paying thosefunds toward taxes, the bill wouldallow small brewers to invest intheir business.

“The craft beer revolution start-ed right here in Massachusetts,andthey’ve been going toe to toe withmulti-national beer companiesever since,”said Kerry.

The senators are touting the

BEER Act as a way to level theplaying field, as smaller breweriesoften have higher costs for pro-duction, materials, packaging anddistribution than their larger com-petitors.

Idaho Grain Producers Associ-ation Executive Director TravisJones said the organization hadlobbied for the bill and applaudedits introduction.

“We’re standing behind the billas something that is not only goodfor brewers but for barley growersas well,” Jones said.

Focusing on forage, pasture for profitability

By Cindy SnyderTimes News correspondent

SHOSHONE — When it comesto increasing profitability to a live-stock enterprise, producers some-times can’t see the grass for thepasture.

Getting cattle and sheep pro-ducers to think about pastures,grazing and forages in a differentlight was the focus of a Universityof Idaho extension grazing schoolheld in Shoshone on Friday.

“I get a lot of questions about

different species, intensive man-agement and rotational grazingand other options,” said ChristiFalen, Lincoln County Universityof Idaho Extension educator.

“Our goal is to get producers tothink about their operation in adifferent way and how to make itmore profitable.”

Laura Sluder, a dairy sheep pro-ducer north of Shoshone, has seenthe benefits of utilizing intensivemanagement on her 80-acre farm.Her goal is to produce 250,000pounds of live weight per acre, up

from 100,000 pounds last yearwhen a cool, wet spring left hershort of forage going into winter.

Falen hopes other producers at-tending the grazing school will beinspired to change how they look atand manage their pastures.

“I would like them to double ortriple their profits,” she said.

Wilson Gray, UI extension live-stock economist, worked throughan example comparing pasturesin which beef cattle graze contin-uously, another scenario withstock rotated every seven daysand another with daily cattle ro-tation.

By rotating stock more fre-

quently, total annual forage pro-duction increased in a 160-acrepasture from 4,800 pounds on thecontinuous pasture to 14,000pounds on the daily rotation. Ro-tating every seven days yielded7,000 pounds of production.

“By rotating more frequently,you get higher forage quality andyou harvest more total forage,”Gray said. That means that moreanimals can be stocked on a pas-ture. In this example, just 48 cow-calf pairs could be stocked on a160-acre pasture that was contin-uously grazed compared to 112 for athe weekly rotation and 288 forthose moved daily.

And that lowers the break evenprice livestock producers need toreceive to cover their costs. Underthe continuous system, producersneed to receive $283 per hundred-weight to cover operating andownership costs.

That break-even price falls to$139 per cwt. on the seven-day ro-tation and just $93 on the daily ro-tation.

“The seven-day system worksreasonably well at the current priceforecast for calves,” Gray said. “Ithink we will stay at that level for afew years.”

Small brewery tax bill proposal supportedby barley growers, brewers alike

HurstelectedNAWGpresidentBy Cindy SnyderTimes News correspondent

BURLEY — A Cassia Countyfarmer has been elected president ofthe National Association of WheatGrowers.

Wayne Hurst first became in-volved with grain organizations inthe late 1990s, at a time when farm-ers were experiencing very lowwheat prices. The National Associa-tion of Wheat Growers (NAWG)worked closely with Congress to de-velop programs that kept of a lot offarmers in business through thatdifficult period.

Even though he had been farmingfor almost 20 years, he says that ex-perience was “when I really becameaware of the importance of a nation-al farm organization.”

He decided to become more in-volved with the Idaho Grain Produc-ers Association,first by representingCassia County and then on the ex-ecutive board. Hurst served as IGPApresident in 2006.

Clark Kauffman of Filer hasknown Hurst for many yearsthrough IGPA and chaired theNAWG nominating committee thatrecommended Hurst be electedpresident.

“Wayne has a quiet strengthabout him,” Kauffman said. “He caninfluence people by quietly askingthem questions and getting them tothink about why and how they aredoing something.”

That could be very important in ayear when debate is expected to be-gin on the 2012 Farm Bill. “Wayne isso well informed. Well thought outpolicies and facts are pretty hard toargue with unless you just want toargue,” he added.

Dean Stevenson, has also workedwith Hurst through IGPA and otherorganizations. He too thinks Hurst is

Antique tractor will go to winner of raffle organized by FFA chaptersBy Cindy SnyderTimes-News correspondent

CALDWELL— FFA chap-ters across Idaho are sellingraffle tickets for an antiquetractor. Proceeds will pro-vide scholarships and sup-port the Idaho FFA Founda-tion.

Sid and Pam Freeman,who farm near Caldwell, do-nated a 1940 Farmall H trac-tor to the Idaho FFA Founda-tion. Each FFA Chapter inthe state was issued 60 tick-ets which can be purchasedfor a $10 donation to theIdaho FFA Foundation. Thedrawing for the tractor willbe held April 8 during theIdaho State FFA Leadership

Conference at the College ofSouthern Idaho campus inTwin Falls.

The tractor will be on dis-play at CSI and raffle ticketswill be available on April 6

and 7.The goal is to raise

$50,000 with 60 percentgoing towards post-second-ary scholarships for FFA stu-dents, 25 percent to theFoundation itself and 5 per-cent to the chapter desig-nated on the winning ticket.The remaining 10 percentwill be used for promotionalexpenses and to purchase atractor for a future raffle.

Although the Freemansbegan this as a one-yearproject, support has been sooverwhelming it has becomea multi-year project. In fact,two more tractors have al-ready been donated for thenext two years.

“Every single person I have

talked to has been on boardimmediately,” said Sid Free-man. “Just because they val-ue the FFA program somuch.”

National statistics showthat kids who participate inthe FFA curriculum are morelikely to become leaders intheir communities later,Freeman said.

It may be the only curricu-lum that gives them experi-ence in business math andbudget management. Theyalso get exposed to wide va-riety of vocational experi-ences. All of this better pre-pares FFA kids for the realworld experiences after highschool no matter what theygo on to, he said.

“We just hope that thecommunities of Idaho willsee the value of the FFA cur-riculum and appreciate it asmuch as we do, and stepforward to donate to theprogram by purchasingtickets from the kids in theircommunities,” Freemansaid

Donations from areabusinesses helped restorethe 1940 Farmall H tractor.

Those donors include:Burks Tractor and Imple-ment of Twin Falls andCaldwell, Idaho Les Schwabstores and Caldwell businessGSL Soda Blasting, ThePaint Guy, G & R Ag Equip-ment, Campbell Tractor, J&JMachinery and Notus.

Demand for craft beers isgrowing at about 6 percent,Jones said, which means anincreased need forbarley.

“Craft brewerswill seek out spe-cialty barley vari-eties and Idaho is al-ready in the game.This kind of growthcould help bolsterdemand for Idaho-grown barley,” Jones said.

In 2010, Idaho barley pro-duction was over 43,000million bushels.

“Growers are looking for-ward to another good year,they’re pretty excited to getgoing,” Jones said.

Grant funds used tocreate new marketfor sheep producers

The United States Depart-

ment of Agriculture’s Agri-cultural Marketing Service(AMS) is partially fundingthe purchase and installa-tion of equipment in a woolprocessing facility to devel-op base layer garments forthe U.S. Army.

If the project is successful,it could provide millions ofdollars of new revenue andoutlets for domestic sheepproducers across the coun-try.

Stan Boyd, state executiveof the Idaho Wool GrowersAssociation said the movecould help boost demand forwool in the state.

The U.S. Army has pro-vided the U.S. wool industrywith a two year $750,000Small Business InnovationResearch (SBIR) grant to de-velop domestically pro-

duced prototype militaryExtended Cold WeatherClothing System GenerationIII base layer garments froma form of washable wool thatis resistant to melting andignition.

This project became pos-sible through a $400,000USDA Wool Trust Grantmade by AMS that partiallyfunded the purchase and in-stallation of the equipmentin the Chargeurs Wool USAwool processing facility. Theequipment was jointly fund-ed by the USDA’s Wool Trustand industry. This facility isproducing washable wooltop which can be used for avariety of domestically pro-duced wool products that

are already reaching themarket.

Chargeurs Wool USA isthe last wool processingplant in the United Statesselling high quality and highvalue wool used for clothingmanufacturing and now,with this new USDA-fundedequipment, they also willsell washable wool that’sused to manufacture cloth-ing.

If the project is successfuland the U.S. Army transi-tions to wool-based undergarments, it could providemillions of dollars of newrevenue and outlets for the82,000 domestic sheep pro-ducers across the country.

well positioned to help guideagriculture through whatpromises to be some difficultdiscussions this year.

“Agriculture has some dif-ficult choices as we gothrough the next farm bill,”Stevenson said. “Wayne canread the political writing onthe wall.”

But the looming farm billdebate is not the only issueHurst will be watchingclosely as NAWG president.Research for both biotechand conventional traits, en-vironmental regulation andtrade agreements with Co-lumbia, Panama and South

Korea are all hot top-ics now.

IGPA is one of the21 affiliated state as-sociations that com-prise NAWG and hastwo seats on theNAWG board. Duringhis tenure on theIGAP executiveboard, Hurst became one ofthose representatives andwas asked to consider be-coming an officer. Officersserve for five years and rotatethrough positions from sec-retary-treasurer to immedi-ate past president.

Although Hurst admits ithas been challenging at

times to be awayfrom his diversifiedfarm,knowing it wasa five-year commit-ment from the startmade the decisioneasier for his family.He credits his twoteenage sons andhired men for help-

ing to keep the farm runningwhile he travels or partici-pates in conference calls.

But he believes the sacri-fice has been worthwhile.“Sometimes we, as farmers,feel like we don’t have avoice, that we can’t have animpact,” Hurst said. “But Ihave seen that we can when

we work through our stateand national organizations.”

One of the attributesHurst brings to his job asNAWG president is his di-versified farming back-ground. NAWG works close-ly with other major com-modity groups such as theNational Corn Growers andNational Soybean Growerson issues ranging from farmpolicy to environmental reg-ulations to trade deals.

The Hursts grow wheat,sugar beets, barley, dry beansand alfalfa. They have alsoraised potatoes and once rana small dairy.

When he meets with rep-

resentatives from the othernational organizations al-most all raise wheat. “Wheatis the common denominatorfor most agriculturalgroups,”Hurst said.

Starting this summer,Idaho will have the rare op-

portunity of being home totwo national grain associa-tion presidents after ScottBrown of Soda Springs, an-other past IGPA president,becomes president of theNational Barley Growers As-sociation.

Pasture is what makes the difference inthe cost-calculations, Gray said. He pointedout that all operations would require thesame hay for winter feeding.

“You tend to get what you manage for,”Gray said.

Before beginning an intensive grazingmanagement system, producers need to as-sess their pasture and know its carrying ca-pacity.

Producers are also likely to see additionalcosts initially for fencing and managementtime as they move from a continuous pas-ture to rotational grazing.

Other speakers focused on how to matchforages to grazing needs, and how to imple-ment intensive management practices.

The day began with a beef quality assur-ance program that covered vaccinations,feed additives and medications and recordkeeping.

GREGG MIDDLEKAUFF’S QUOTE OF THE DAY

“Man is fond of counting his troubles, but he does not count

his joys. If he counted them up as he

ought to, he would see that every lot

has enough happiness provided for it.”

Fyodor Dostoevsky

Every three minutes another person falls behind on credit card debt. It’s no

wonder, since every major credit card company has nearly doubled the minimum

monthly payment on consumers’ bills. Federal Regulators forced the change

because of their concern about the growing mountain of consumer debt, which

stands at $2.17 trillion. Many consumers can only pay the minimum payment,

which can take up to 30 years to pay off. Now, relief is in sight for millions of Americans.

CreditGUARD of America, a

non-profit licensed debt management

service provider, is making a new

program available to lower debt

payments and become free of all

credit card debt in only three to five

years. Consumers need only $2,000

or more in total credit card debt and

are falling behind on any account, to

cut their payment by 35% to 50%, and

reduce or eliminate interest charges

altogether.

Over 200,000 families, located throughout the U.S. have regained financial

independence with CreditGUARD’s licensed, bonded and insured service. Cred-

itGUARD of America has received high marks in consumer surveys showing high

consumer satisfaction and confidence. The CreditGUARD debt management

program can lower your monthly payments by hundreds and save you

thousands!

One such case is Sandra L. who proclaimed “CreditGUARD cut my monthly

payment by $656 and saved me over $29,206.53 in interest. They saved my way

of life and gave me back my piece of mind! Now I can see myself on my way to

becoming debt free.” or

Jeffrey C. who said “CreditGUARD of America helped me consolidate 3 of my

credit cards into one affordable payment. They are now saving me nearly $200 a

month. Now I will be debt free in 2 years or less”

Texas man gets face transplantBOSTON (AP) — A Texas

construction worker horri-bly disfigured in a power lineaccident has undergone thenation’s first full face trans-plant in hopes of smilingagain and feeling kisses fromhis 3-year-old daughter.

Dallas Wiens, 25, receiveda new nose, lips, skin, mus-cle and nerves from anunidentified dead person inan operation paid for by theU.S. military, which wants touse what is learned to helpsoldiers with severe facialwounds.

Wiens will not resemble“either what he used to be orthe donor,’’ but something inbetween, said plastic sur-geon Dr. Bohdan Pomahac).“The tissues are reallymolded on a new person.’’

Pomahac led a team ofmore than 30 doctors, nurs-es and other staff at Brigham

and Women’s Hospital dur-ing the 15-hour operationlast week. Wiens was listedin good condition at theBoston hospital on Monday.He did not appear at a newsconference with the sur-geon.

The Fort Worth man’sfeatures were all but burnedaway and he was left blindafter hitting a power linewhile painting a church inNovember 2008.

The transplant was notable to restore his sight, andsome nerves were so badlydamaged from his injurythat he will probably haveonly partial sensation on hisleft cheek and left forehead,the surgeon said.

“When I saw Dallas forthe first time I was worriedthat there may not be muchwe could do,” said Poma-hac.

AT&T, T-Mobile deal raises questionsWASHINGTON (AP) —

AT&T’s surprise an-nouncement that it plansto acquire T-Mobile USAwill force federal regula-tors to confront a diffi-cult antitrust question:Can American con-sumers get good wirelessservice at a fair price ifthey must choose be-tween just two nationalcompanies?

That debate will be atthe center of the govern-ment review of the $39 bil-lion cash-and-stock dealannounced Sunday. If ap-proved, the purchasewould catapult AT&Tpast Verizon Wireless tobecome the nation’slargest cellphone serviceprovider.

The deal would com-

bine AT&T Inc., the nation’ssecond-largest wireless car-rier, with T-Mobile USA, thefourth-largest, which is nowowned by Germany’sDeutsche Telekom AG. Andit could pave the way forVerizon to go after SprintNextel Corp., which wouldbe a distant No. 3 and theonly remaining nationalprovider.

None of the smaller U.S.carriers, including LeapWireless, Metro PCS andU.S. Cellular, has complete

nationwide coverage.Officials at the Justice De-

partment and the FederalCommunications Commis-sion could spend a year ormore scrutinizing the dealbefore deciding whether toblock it or allow it to proceedwith substantial conditionsattached.

“I am not convinced thatthis deal is unthinkable,” saidJeffrey Silva, an analyst withGlobal Medley Advisors.“But it’s a very, very heavylift.”

Regulators will conduct athorough market-by-mar-ket analysis to determinehow many wireless choicesconsumers would have incommunities across thecountry. And even if they al-low the deal to go through,government officials wouldprobably require the com-bined company to sell off as-sets — including wirelessspectrum, cell towers andcustomers — in particularmarkets that are too concen-trated.

WENDELL — Donna and Jack Scott havethe seclusion they crave, without sacrificingcomfort.

Their house, built with Douglas fir logs,sits on the edge of the Snake River Canyon,combining the Western log look with theScotts’ personal style.

When the former Twin Falls couplebought the land in 1998, the 35-acre proper-ty had just a barn and stone house, both builtin 1914. The area where they wanted to buildtheir house was filled with sagebrush andstone, Donna explained.

So the Scotts got to work.Jack cleared a whopping1,268 dump truck loads ofdirt and rock from the area —yes, he kept track. The cou-ple lived in the stone houseduring construction, whichtook about five years, thenmoved into the log home in2003, as they celebrated

their 50th wedding anniversary.For the home design, they consulted an

architect, then took plans to Meridian-based PrecisionCraft Log and TimberHomes.

Todd Gailey, client representative at Pre-cisionCraft, said most clients choose one ofthe company’s 65 existing floor plans andmodify it. With the Scotts, though, “thefloor plan actually was their baby.”

GARAGE CLUTTERCleaning and

organizing tipsHome & Garden 2

By Dee-Ann DurbinAssociated Press writer

Garages may have startedout as a place to store cars,but gradually they’ve be-come a place to store almosteverything else, from sportsequipment to dog food toholiday decorations.

As the weather getswarmer and the springcleaning urge hits, it’s a goodtime to take stock of yourgarage. Is it a functionalspace or just a repository forjunk? Are there more logicalways to store your belong-ings?

Before you rush out andbuy new shelving and cabi-nets, professional organizerCindy Tyner recommendsputting some seriousthought into how you wantto use your garage. She saysthe No. 1 mistake peoplemake is pulling everythingout of the garage first andthen getting overwhelmedwhen they try to cram it allback in.

“People go out and buythings, like storage systemsand bins, and say, ‘This iswhat I need to get me organ-ized,’ but the things don’t fitthe purposes they need,’’said Tyner, who owns anAnn Arbor, Mich.-based or-ganizing business calledFunctional Spaces.

Once you’ve decided howto use your garage, here aresome tips to help you finishthe job:

• PPiicckk aa ssuunnnnyy day andclear out all your belongings.Decide what will stay, whatcan be donated and whatshould be thrown away.

“If you haven’t used it in ayear, you need to ask your-self, does it make sense tokeep it? If it’s important tokeep it, how can you use it? Ifit’s a family heirloom, shouldit be sitting in the garagewhere you can have a varietyof problems and moisture?’’said Sean Hunt, president ofGarage Specialists Inc., a San

Bernardino, Calif.-basedcompany that cleans and or-ganizes a few hundredgarages a year.

• OOnnccee tthhee ggaarraaggee iscleared, sweep and wash thefloors and walls. A fresh coatof paint can brighten thewalls, and paints made espe-cially for garage floors pro-tect them from oil and gasstains, and prolong the life ofthe concrete. Home Depot,for example, sells 1-galloncans of Rust-Oleum EpoxyConcrete Floor Paint for$31.97. A gallon covers up to400 square feet.

• CCoonnssiiddeerr wwhhaatt kind ofstorage you need. Costs varysignificantly, from $40 plas-tic shelving to $350 steelshelving. You can use oldkitchen cabinets or buy newones. Gladiator Garage-Works, a division ofWhirlpool Corp., makesheavy-duty plastic tracksthat run along the wall andcan be fitted with cabinets,hooks or baskets. A two-pack of 48-inch-long tracksis $29.99; a six-pack of binsthat fits into the tracks is$14.99.

Kris Nielson, the CEO ofMonkey Bar Storage, aRexburg-based companythat makes steel shelvingsystems, said people can

spend up to $10,000 on cus-tom garages with fancyflooring, refrigerators andother perks. His company,which has 68 outlets in theU.S. and Canada, charges anaverage of $1,500 per garageto install steel shelving sys-tems, which he says are de-signed for durability and ef-ficiency.

“This is not your diningroom. It’s your garage,’’ hesaid.

• UUssee aallll yyoouurr availablespace. For items you onlyneed occasionally, such asholiday decorations, consid-er overhead storage units. A4-square-foot Racor plat-form, for example, holds upto 250 pounds and can belowered with a cable system.Hyloft makes a smaller, lessexpensive overhead storagesystem, measuring 45 squareinches.

If you want a workbenchbut don’t have a lot of room,consider one that folds intothe wall.

• SSttoorree tthhiinnggss cclloossee towhere you need them, and inlogical places. All the gar-

dening equipment should gotogether, for example, andthe bike helmets should benext to the bikes.

“Everything has got tohave a home. Otherwise itjust gets piled up and it’s asnowball effect,’’ Hunt said.

• SSttoorree ssoommee tthhiinnggss out-side. Consider a deck box forchildren’s toys or a storageshed for gardening tools.Lowe’s sells Rubbermaid’sRoughneck storage shed for$299, for example. Tynersays you just need to makesure to use the new spaceproperly and don’t let it be-come your new catchall forjunk.

Because the walls in theScott home are so tall, Preci-sionCraft used a pipe andcap system, with metal pipesrunning vertically throughthe walls to discourage thelogs from settling.

“Jack’s house was proba-bly the first house we usedthat system on,” Gailey said.

The floor plan itself hasplenty of the Scotts’ person-ality. The mud room has anattached bathroom whereJack can shower if he gets toodirty while tending to theirAngus cattle. The room alsohas a large pantry with plen-ty of room for the fruit Don-na cans. Both the mud roomand the front door enter intothe large kitchen. Donnawanted an inviting food-prep area so she could visitwith guests as she cooked.

“The kitchen is just, to me,where I live,” Donna said dur-ing a Wednesday tour. Out-side, rain pounded thelarge windows, and Donna’s3-month-old puppy, Snooks,cowered at her feet.

The kitchen opens into thegreat room, where furnituregroupings designate the liv-ing room, family room anddining room. The furniturecomes from the Scotts’ oldhouse, including a woodenchair with animal headscarved into the armrests.

“This belonged to hisAunt Velma,” Donna said.The aunt taught in Hawaiiduring World War II andbought the chair from a Chi-nese tailor, who told her onlythat “‘it came around thecape.’ That’s all I know aboutit,” Donna said. Donna told

the aunt that she liked thechair.

“She didn’t sell it to me,but when she died, it ap-peared on my doorstep,” shesaid.

The great room’s fireplaceis made of faux stone. Theweight of real stone would betoo much for the interior,Donna said. A bronze eaglesits on a log that juts out ofthe stone. The couple pickedup the bronze eagle in Wash-ington, and the statue is acenterpiece of the room.Donna wanted to avoid dec-orating with log cabin sta-ples like taxidermied ani-mals and antlers, and thestatue reminds her of the ea-gles that fly outside theirhome.

The second floor has an

office and the master bed-room. The bedroom opensup to a balcony that over-looks the canyon. As Donnaopened the doors to the bal-cony on Wednesday, a lightgray fog had settled into theSnake River Canyon, but theriver was still visible.

As the storm gatheredstrength, Jack went outside

to take the American flag offthe 60-foot flagpole. Therain picked up and the windroared outside, but thehouse didn’t creak or budge.

“It’s very sturdy and com-fortable,” Donna said.

Rubber-backedrugs are stainingvinyl flooringBy Al HeavensThe Philadelphia Inquirer

More this week on vinylfloors being discolored byrubber-backed rugs.

I really didn’t know howwidespread the problemwas when I first wroteabout it because I don’thave vinyl flooring, but it isindeed a problem.

Lowe’s employee JerryMcHale from West Lan-caster, Pa., said he had thesame situation occur in hishouse, only the floorturned a deep purple, andit could not be cleaned.McHale and his wife hadplaced a rubber-backedfloor mat inside the Frenchdoor in their kitchen thatled to the deck. Over time,the spot under the mat hadturned ink-purple.

“We tried numerouscleaning products, to noavail,’’ he said.

McHale sought helpfrom the flooring depart-ment at the LancasterLowe’s as well as from em-ployees at Armstrong In-dustries World Headquar-ters, who work less than amile from the store.

“Believe it or not, heat isthe main reason for thediscoloration,’’ McHalesaid he learned. “Appar-ently, heat from the directsunlight through theFrench door gets trappedunder the floor mat andcauses the chemical reac-tion, which discolors thevinyl floor.”

Therefore, it is not rec-ommended to use a rub-ber-backed floor mat in anarea on a vinyl floor thatreceives direct sunlight.

“We have since replacedthe vinyl with a wood lam-inate and have had noproblems,’’ he said.

Bob Zyko of Haddam,

Conn., said he was awareof the problem of yellowfloor staining because ofhis background workingwith neoprene-coatedbelting products.

“When coated beltingprojects were stacked onthe vinyl lab flooring for aperiod of time, they yel-lowed the floor — perma-nently,’’ he said.

Zyko assumed that rugand mat manufacturerswould use non-stainingmaterials for their rubberbackings.

“So we now have someyellowed vinyl floors,’’ hesaid.

How can you tell whichcarpet backings are non-staining? He asked thequestions since the carpetlabels do not provide muchinformation, and he hasyet to see one that claimsto be non-staining.

You should look for anon-staining vinyl-backed mat or a woven rugthat is colorfast. Most ofthese products are identi-fied as “colorfast’’ by themanufacturer. Armstrongcautions against usingrubber-backed mats andrugs because the companyis aware of the chemicalreaction that creates thestain.

You cannot remove thestain unless you removethe floor. If you don’t wantto do it, you’ll need to buy alarger rug to hide it.

“Believe it or not,heat is the main

reason for the discoloration.’’

when it happens

DEAR ABBY: My jobrequires me to travel out oftown several nights a week,leaving my wife homealone. She recently invited amutual (male) friend out fordinner during my absence.He’s the other half of a cou-ple we socialize with fre-quently. (His wife was alsoout of town.)

I told her I was uncom-fortable with it.I don’t thinkmarried men and womenshould go out alone withmembers of the oppositesex. She maintains that itwasn’t a “date,” that shewas just having a meal witha friend.

I value your opinion andwould like to know how youfeel about this. Did I overre-act? Is it appropriate for amarried woman to go outfor a meal alone with a manother than her husband?

FEELING CHEATED ON IN ILLINOIS

DEAR FEELINGCHEATED ON: With somecouples this wouldn’t be anissue. However, how I feelabout it is not as importantas how YOU feel about it. Ifyou have explained yourfeelings to your wife and sheknows it made you uncom-fortable — innocent as itwas — then it shouldn’t berepeated. I can’t help butwonder how she wouldreact if you told her you hadrun into the man’s wife onone of your business tripsand the two of you had haddinner together — and planto do so again in the future.

EAR ABBY: Whenevermy father comes into myroom to wake me up, heopens the shutters on mywindows. After spendinghours in a dark room, thebright light hurts my eyes.

I have talked to him aboutit several times, but usuallyfind myself apologizing forbeing overly sensitive aboutthe matter.

Abby, even when he haspromised not to, he stilldoes it. Is there anything Ican do to make him stop?

SENNSITIVE EYES IN RICHMOND, VA.

DEAR SENSITIVE EYES:Yes, there is. Take responsi-bility for waking yourself upby getting an alarm clock soyou no longer need yourfather’s “help.”

EAR ABBY: My hus-band’s sister is being mar-ried in a few months. Thewedding is in her home-town, which is more than1,400 miles from where welive. My husband and I havethree small children.

Taking our entire familyand staying for three or fourdays will cost almost$3,000. Two of the childrenwould not be able to attendthe ceremony withoutcausing a disruption, due tonaps, feeding, etc. In spite ofthe financial burden and thefact that it will be a difficulttrip for the children, thebride-to-be is demandingthat all of us be there.

Abby, are we obligated tomake this trip,or would it beacceptable for only my hus-band to attend? If he goesalone, he will have timewith his sister and the restof the family, whom he doesnot get to see very often. Wewant to do the right thing,but the reality is that takingour family of five would bedifficult and stressful foreveryone.

ANXIOUS IN OHIODEAR ANXIOUSS: Your

husband needs to asserthimself and talk some senseinto his sister. While it iswonderful that she wouldlike to have all of you at herwedding, an invitation is arequest — not a summons.If being there with the chil-dren would be stressfulfinancially, logistically andemotionally, you are right tostay home.

tRANSPORTATION

IF MARCH 22 IS YOURBBIRTHDAY: With Uranus inyour part of the zodiac, youare sure to have an excitingand unusual year ahead.This is your year to obtainyour 15 minutes of fame andto break free from yourcocoon. Make loyalty a toppriority in June, becauseeven though you insist onfreedom you also may meetup with someone who haspotential as a permanentromantic partner. If you arealready harnessed to a soulmate, you might be able toland the job of your dreamsor make a successful careerchange in June. InSeptember your judgment isbetter than usual so that is agreat time to make longrange plans and irrevocabledecisions.

ARIES (March 21-April19): Your natural inclinationto fight opposition to yourideas could goad you intomaking large errors. You areunlikely to receive goodadvice today; sidestep mak-ing promises you are unableto keep.

TAURUS (April 20-May20): Relationships couldexperience difficulty today.Hold on tight to what youalready have and refuse toget your feathers ruffled ifthings don’t go quite asplanned. Be as fair and equi-table as possible.

GEMINI (May 21-June20): Your personal chatroom is open and you areanxious for communication.This could be a good day toget online and meet newpeople, but hide your per-sonal information andremain discreet.

CANCER (June 21-July22): Avoid decision-makingor discussions. Your specialsomeone might be in themood to break from the rou-tine and try somethingexciting and different. Thismight interrupt your sched-ule.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22):Strike a balance. Althoughyou cannot argue with intel-ligent analysis, you mightrefuse to budge from sheerobstinacy. The people youvalue the most may takeextreme measures if theirdesires are thwarted.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept.22): Put other people first. Afixation on having what youwant, without consideringwhat others need, can pre-vent you from seeing eye-to-eye with key people.Thriftiness is admirable, butnot always desirable.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Octt. 22):You can’t say yes and youcan’t say no, so just be rightthere when the whistleblows. The outcome mightbe up in the air for a fewdays. You may find thatsome people are unpre-dictable or unreliable.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov.21): Your charm and intelli-gence shine brightly today inanything you undertake.Avoid making agreements orspending significant sumsof money because unusualattractions and unpre-dictable results prevail.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Put things in prop-er perspective. An organiza-tion or club that is meant tobe a place for social activitiesshould not be the center ofyour existence.Don’t be dis-tracted by group dynamics.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 119): Social gatheringsmight center on politicalmaneuvering and hypocriti-cal bantering. Remainpoised so that changingallegiances don’t place youin the doghouse.Keep an eyeout for unusual requests.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.18): When the cosmic windsblow trouble your way, takeshelter. This could be a goodday to study new technolo-gies or master a new com-munication device. Accent-uate the logical instead ofthe emotional.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March20): Unusual and odd itemsand gadgets attract youtoday. A gregarious moodprevails and new friendshipscan present tantalizing pos-sibilities. Demonstrate yourindependence and get awayfrom the crowd.

By Mike ChristensenTimes-News

In the 45 seasons of its sto-ried men’s basketball pro-gram — 45 seasons that haveproduced the best winningpercentage in NJCAA history— the College of SouthernIdaho has won just three na-tional championships.

That alone should tell youhow hard it is to climb to thetop of the NJCAA summit.And it makes CSI’s 72-64 ti-tle win over Midland (Texas)College last Saturday inHutchinson,Kan.,that muchmore impressive.

“It’s a darn hard thing toget it done,” said CSI AthleticDirector Joel Bate. Bate

would know. He’s beenaround CSI athletics fornearly two decades.

“Of all the special playersand special coaches that havebeen here,it really shows thatit takes a special team,” hesaid.

CSI had such a team in2010-11. The Golden Eagleswent 33-4, capped by fourwins in four days at theNJCAA Tournament.

“We went out and recruit-ed some very good youngmen and I couldn’t be moreproud of them,” said third-year CSI head coach SteveGosar, who made his trip tonationals as head man one toremember.

But to win it all, you have

to have guys who approachthe game, and the nationaltournament, like sophomorecenter Kenny Buckner.

“I knew I just had to re-bound, get all the 50-50 ballsand do all the little things tohelp my team win,” saidBuckner after posting12 points and nine reboundsin the title game.

Having a team full of guyswho “bought in” to thatteam-first concept turned agreat season into somethingbetter.

In 45 seasons, CSI has anoverall record of 1,292-248,an 84-percent winning rate,while advancing to the NJ-CAA tourney 21 times. Onlytwice in those 45 seasons

have the Golden Eagles wonless than 20 games, whilenever recording a losing sea-son. That kind of successbreeds high expectations.

“We’ve had 21 seasons inthe past that have felt likelosing seasons because wedidn’t get to Hutch,we didn’tmeet the expectations,” saidBate, who added that theprogram’s history of successputs “immense” pressure onCSI coaches.

In the face of that pressure,and the long odds of winningit all,Gosar and company de-livered a title to Twin Falls.

By no means was it easy.But worth it?

“Absolutely,” said Gosar.“Every little bit.”

Winning NJCAA no easy feat for CSI Vandersloot leadsGonzaga over No. 3 seed UCLA

SPOKANE, Wash. —Courtney Vandersloot had29 points and 17 assists tohelp No. 11 seed Gonzagabeat third-seeded UCLA89-75 on Monday night inthe second round of theNCAA tournament.

Playing in front of a rau-cous home crowd, Vander-sloot became the first play-er in Division I history —men or women — to record2,000 points and 1,000 as-sists in her career. And afterthat benchmark was set,the senior made sure hercollege career would last atleast one more game, in theround of 16, across town atthe Spokane Arena nextSaturday night.

Kayla Standish matchedher career high with 30points to lead Gonzaga (30-4).

Darxia Morris led UCLAwith 20 points and JasmineDixon added 18, but theBruins (28-5) were bouncedin the second-round of thetournament for the secondstraight year, given no

favors having to play onGonzaga’s home floor.

Burley seekssunshine andbaseball winsB

URLEY — Like manystudents do onspring break, the

Burley baseball team gotout of town seeking warmweather this week. But theBobcats hope to bring backmore than just a suntanfrom their trip to SaintGeorge, Utah.

The early-season trip hasbecome an annual traditionfor the Burley ballplayers,one in which head coachDevin Kunz gives his team achance to escape southernIdaho’s unpredictablespring weather, get somework done, plus build ca-maraderie.

Today’s high temperaturein Burley: 47 degrees. SaintGeorge: 63.

The Bobcats are sched-uled to play three gamesdown south before return-ing for their home-openingdoubleheader with Centuryon Thursday.

“It helps prepare us as ateam,” said Burley seniorcatcher Kody Moon.“Thelast two seasons we’vecome back from Saint

George and we had a couplestrong games, but as a teamwe haven’t been able tokeep it strong togetherthrough the end. You cansee that in the last half ofthe season we alwaysstruggle.”

That struggle resulted inBurley’s two-and-out fin-ish in last year’s District IVtournament, which waspartly due to the Bobcats’lack of experience and sen-ior leadership. Hopefullythat won’t be as big of anissue this season as Burleyreturns seven starters. Of-fensively, Burley’s top twohitters are back, as Moonand shortstop Jackson Kunzeach hit above .400.

“We will need to executein game situations,” Moonsaid.“We had a lot of young

the Vandals travel to Nevadato close the regular seasonDec.3.

In between are non-con-ference trips to Texas A&M(Sept. 17), the University ofVirginia (Oct. 1) andBrigham Young University(Nov. 12) along with the re-mainder of the WAC sched-

ule at New Mexico State andSan Jose State with homecontests against LouisianaTech and Utah State.

kids last year that were thrown in the mix andI don’t think they knew what to expect.As ateam we’ve grown up this year.Last year wewere a little immature,and you could see thatin big games.But when we play together,we’re tough.”

Moon,who has verbally committed to playbaseball at Utah Valley University,doesn’thesitate when asked who the early favoritesare in the Great Basin Conference.

Twin Falls and Minico.“Of course they’re the teams to beat,”Moon

said.“They’ve proven themselves.They’vebuilt two good programs and you’ve got togive it to them.Coach Kunz,on the otherhand,is building a great program,too.Ourteam two years ago was (awful),and he’s builtit up…As a team we’ve got to prove to thecommunity that we’re here to play.As a teamwe can do it,if we come together and staystrong.”

Now in his third season,Kunz said he’sready to see more tallies in the win column.The Bobcats finished last season with a 13-17record.

“I like what we have,but we don’t have a lotof depth,”Kunz said.“We just need to getsome work in.And we’ve got to get healthy.”

Burley’s depth suffered a significant blowwhen No.1 pitcher Jake Mills broke his throw-

ing hand during the basketball season.He re-cently had the cast and two pins removed andis expected to return in April.

“I don’t want to rush it.It’s good to winnonconference games,but league is the mostimportant thing,”said Mills.“The seniors thisyear,we all want to win.We don’t expect any-thing but winning.We drill that into theyounger kids’heads.Losing is not accept-able.”

In the long run,Mills’injury could end uphelping Burley develop a deeper bullpen asother pitchers will have an opportunity to stepin.Joe Ferrin,Luke Bloxham,Craig Chris-tensen,Taylor Carson and Jacob Wiseman areall expected to log innings on the mound.

“Once everybody’s healthy,we’ve got sevenguys who can throw strikes,get guys out andwin games,”Mills said.

Burley baseball has steadily improved thepast two years,going from 12-37 (.244 win-ning percentage) in the two seasons beforeKunz arrived to 23-36 overall (.389) in Kunz’stwo seasons at the helm.In addition,Burley’slegion team is 52-35 over the past two years.

Notwithstanding,perhaps Moon summedit up best: “We still have a lot to prove.”

If they indeed prove that they can put it alltogether,then perhaps the sun will still beshining on the Bobcats at the end of the sea-son as well.

Eight women,four men pickedfor Bonds juryBy Ronald BlumAssociated Press writer

SAN FRANCISCO —Barry Bonds finally satacross the court roomMonday from the 12 peoplewho will judge whether ornot the greatest home-runhitter of all time lied abouttaking drugs.

Following a daylong se-lection process, eightwomen and four men werepicked to hear the federalgovernment’s case againstthe 46-year-old formerSan Francisco Giants star,who is charged with fourcounts of lying to a grandjury and one count of ob-struction for testifying in2003 that he never know-ingly used performance-enhancing drugs.

Among the jurors therewas no shortage of opinionon baseball’s Steroids Eraor drugs in sports, thoughall indicated they could ruleimpartially in the case ofBonds, who holds therecords for home runs in acareer (762) and a season(73).

Juror No. 69 was angeredCongress investigatedsteroids in sports “on mydime.”

“They should be solvingthings like the nationaldebt,” he said.

He made it onto the pan-el, even though he saidBonds had “probably not(received) a fair trial in thecourt of public opinion.”

Jurors were identified bynumber rather than name,and U.S. District Judge Su-san Illston said their identi-ties won’t be revealed untilthe day after the verdict.

“We got a fair and impar-tial jury selected after anopen process,” said Bonds’lead lawyer, Allen Ruby,said outside the court-house.

From the initial pool ofpotential jurors who filledout 19-page questionnaireslast week, Illston dismissed38 based on answers, whichincluded whether they hadattended Giants games inthe last five years, andwhether they were familiarwith the Mitchell Report ondrugs in baseball or con-gressional hearings intosteroids use. Several weredismissed because theysaid they had formed opin-ions on the case.

Another was droppedbecause of the death of agrandmother last weekend,and two more because theysaid jury duty would be ahardship. Illston deniedthree other hardship re-quests.

Thirty-six underwent 70minutes of questioningfrom Illston in the morn-ing, and another hour fromprosecutors and defenselawyers in the afternoon.After a break, Illston’s clerkread the numbers of thechosen 12 and two alter-nates — down from the fouroriginally intended. Twojurors, both women, areblack and 10 are white in acase that could see race be-come an issue.

Juror No. 24, an Air Forceveteran who was not se-lected, brought it up underquestioning. “I prettymuch think he was singledout because of his race,” theman said.

Juror No. 56, one of theblack women selected, saidfor baseball and the NFLthe “commissioner’s officeshould deal with” steroids.“I think it’s up to them andnot the government to beinvolved,” she said.
