Jerome High School English teacher Erica Rogers helps sophomores Kaydi Bangerter, left, Anastasia King, middle, and Hannah Lock Monday with Idaho Standards

Achievement Test preparations. Jerome High School is in its sixth year of ‘school improvement’ status in language arts and reading, and faces potential sanctions if students

fail to meet federal growth standards this year.

By Amy HuddlestonTimes-News writer

Before students head into com-puter labs to take the annual IdahoStandards Achievement Test, someschool officials are handing out pep-permints, hard candy and sticks ofgum to enliven sleepy brains.

But a quick sugar rush isn’t theonly thing students get before takinga test meant to measure their teach-ers’ effectiveness and ultimately de-

termine if they’ll graduate. Prepara-tion for the ISAT starts early in thefall and is amped up a few weeks be-fore testing begins in April.

Jerome High School Englishteacher Erica Rogers stopped in themiddle of a Monday lesson on JuliusCaesar to focus on vocabulary andgrammar rules her sophomore stu-dents will face during their final yearof ISAT testing.

As state eyes changes, Burley, Jerome high schools seek to break streaks of ISAT progress woes

See SCHOOLS, Main 2

Q: Why is it important?ISAT scores reflect schools’ AnnualYearly Progress (AYP), a measure ofstudent achievement associatedwith federal No Child Left Behindmandates. If a school fails to meetAYP for five years, it must make sig-nificant changes to show it is mak-ing progress toward improvement.

Is radiation good foryou? The old man andour fear of invisible raysBy Todd C. FrankelSt. Louis Post-Dispatch

LAWRENCE, Kan. — Thewind whistled innocentlythrough the opening in the slid-ing glass door. Rushing in from abuttermilk sky, it gave no hint ofradioactive traces from damagednuclear reac-tors thousandsof miles away.

The old manwas not afraid.He welcomedany radiationthat mightblow in. Hewould haverisen from hisblue recliner inthe living room and opened hisarms to the invisible rays if hecould somehow know they werethere.

Don Luckey is 91. He has a fullface and white beard. His blueeyes are failing. He’s getting to-ward the end, near as he can tell.

But he has work still to do,work on radiation begun 50 yearsago as a respected biochemist atthe University of Missouri Co-lumbia. His studies on antibi-otics and pesticides earned himacclaim. But his work on radia-tion had always been controver-sial, running so against the es-

tablished think-ing, even as re-sistance hassoftened withtime. He thoughthe was done withit. In his garage,boxes of researchwait for shippingto a schoolrepository. Butthen the invisible

The Twin Falls City Councilspared the residents of the GreenAcres subdivision from new stu-dent-oriented apartments in aneighboring lot at a marathonmeeting Monday night.

All five of the voting councilmembers voted to pull the six-acre sliver — and potential lot fortwo 40-unit, two-story apart-ment complexes — from a largermotion to approve a new CSIzoning designation for the en-tirety of the college’s 366 totalacres. The larger motion was alsoapproved 5-0.

Mayor Don Hall stepped downfrom the discussions because heworks at CSI; Councilman WillKezele was out of town.

Councilwoman Rebecca MillsSojka, who said she no longerworks at CSI and did not excuseherself from the vote, said re-moving the six acres in questionwill allow CSI to look at other us-es for the area and allow thecouncil to readdress it later. Thesection is on CSI’s east side.

The council faced a barrage of

anti-complex testimony fromneighboring homeowners andbusinesses concerned about in-creased traffic on what they saidwas an already dangerous road,and the potential nuisance of a24-7 apartment complex, com-plete with its associated noiseand light. Some business ownersalso worried about vandals.

Aside from CSI Vice Presidentof Administration Mike Mason,who made the pitch for the com-plex, only two people voiced theirsupport for the complex and bothwere students.

Sheree Haggan, CSI studentbody president, said the collegeneeds more affordable housingwithin walking distance for itsstudents. She further railedagainst the community memberswho she said stereotyped collegestudents as animals, while all thecommunity members were angels.

JEROME — Jerome Countycommissioners have plenty ofdecisions to make before votersmake a final one in November —choosing whether the countywill get a new jail.

The county officials need todecide on the constructionmethod for the new facility,whether to hire an architect todraw preliminary plans so thepublic has a stronger sense ofwhat the new jail would looklike,and where they’d build it.

Commissioners heard a pres-entation on Monday from archi-tect Russ Moorhead of Lom-bard-Conrad Architects inBoise, and general contractorScott Hedrick, about the op-tions and benefits associatedwith different constructioncontracts and bidding process-es.

The next step for the countycomes today, when commis-sioners meet again to plan andmake a decision. That decisionmay include hiring an architectfor preliminary design work anddeciding upon what construc-tion method to pursue.

A proposed 120-bed jail wouldcost an estimated $8 million to$11 million. More-precise figuresare expected to emerge beforethe November bond election.

Among the construction op-tions outlined:

• Construction/managementadviser: With this method, thecounty would hire an architectand a general contractor, butthey would be chosen separatelyinstead of as one proposal from adesign-build team.

Both would report to thecounty, an arrangement thatlikely would give the county themost control over the project,Hedrick said.

Jerome County Sheriff DougMcFall stressed the importanceof the county maintaining astrong role in keeping the proj-ect on budget.

“It’s important that the coun-ty maintain control over theprocess,”he said.

• Design-bid-build: Thismethod would require hiring anarchitect to design the jail, thenputting the design out for a bid

Q: What is the ISAT?The Idaho Standards AchievementTest measures students’ language,reading and math skills starting in thethird grade and continues until 10thgrade. A science test is implementedin grades five, seven and 10. Studentsmust pass with a proficient scorebefore they are allowed to graduate.

Twin Falls City Councilshoots down CSI apartments

Jerome Co.officials getadvice on jailconstruction

“Tenth grade is a criticalISAT year for students,”Rogers said. “They have topass in order to graduate,and if they don’t, then theygo into remedial ISAT test-prep courses.”

The stakes are high forschools, too.

A school that fails to meetAnnual Yearly Progress re-quirements associated withthe federal No Child Left Be-hind Act faces a variety ofcorrective actions that couldculminate in school restruc-turing or forced administra-tive changes. Schools mustmeet certain standards formultiple student subgroups,including Latinos, the eco-nomically disadvantagedand the developmentallydisabled.

Jerome High School has-n’t met AYP in reading forthe past six years, while Bur-ley High School and the Ida-ho School for the Deaf andthe Blind haven’t met theproficiency standard in mathduring the same time frame.Jerome Middle School is alsoin its sixth year of missing anAYP mark, while five area schools have been given “new school status”— basically resetting their timeline to meet

federal requirements.Burley Principal Carolyn

Hondo said during the fourweeks before ISAT testingstarts, students who are be-low proficiency at her schoolare identified from the pre-vious year’s test scores andare given half an hour everyday of structured interven-tion time. Hondo said mathclasses have been moved tothe mornings, after studiesshowed it’s the best time tolearn.

“We focus our teaching onthe state standards andwhat’s important,” Hondosaid. “As far as teaching tothe test, I don’t think we dothat.”

But from a teaching per-spective, Rogers said it is dif-ficult to teach to a test whenshe doesn’t have a direct ideaof what the ISAT will ask herstudents.

“There are the state stan-dards, but language is such abig thing,” she said. “Wehave made gains, but wehaven’t made the gains thatwill make us proficient. Themost frustrating thing isthat it counts so much forone test and doesn’t showthe significant gains (stu-dents) are making in myclass.”

Jerome High School Prin-

cipal Eric Anderson said hisschool is rewriting curricu-lum in all content areas tobetter reflect state standardsand new Common CoreState Standards as a part ofits restructuring process. AnEnglish lab has also been im-

plemented to help studentswho struggle with vocabu-lary and grammar.

Amy Huddleston may bereached at ahuddleston@magicvalley.com or 735-3204.

Q: What are the concerns?The ISAT is given once a year and shows only proficiency in fourdifferent areas rather than the educational growth each studenthas made. A small percentage of students who don’t do well onthe test can bring a school’s AYP down. Schools must meet cer-tain standards for all students including Latinos, the economicallydisadvantaged and the developmentally disabled.

Q: What are the future plans?Idaho State Department of Education spokeswoman MelissaMcGrath said Idaho is working with a consortium of other states tobuild a new assessment to measure student growth and proficien-cy. The new testing method would give teachers assessment toolsto use throughout the year — rather than at the end of the schoolyear — to give a more accurate picture of student development.

HHey, Twin FallsCounty, you’re aMormon Outpost.

And you, Gooding Coun-ty, you’re Tractor Country.Minidoka County is Immi-gration Nation.

And Blaine County?Boom Town America, de-spite the 9.4 percent unem-ployment rate.

I’m always fascinatedwith how the rest of theworld sees our quaint littlecorner of the cosmos. Andnowhere more so than withthe publication Our Patch-work Nation, the product ofa collaboration among TheChristian Science Monitor,PBS NewsHour and theKnight Foundation.

Co-written by journalistDante Chinni and Universityof Maryland professorJames Gimpel, it’s a look —from afar — at the differentkinds of communities thatmake up the 3,143 countiesin America.

Twin Falls County —which is a little more than 33

percent LDS — along withCassia and Lincoln coun-ties, are “places (with) veryhigh numbers of adherentsto the Church of JesusChrist of Latter-DaySaints.” Chinni traveled toBurley to interview localleaders for the book.

But the picture he paintsof Cassia County — as a“resistance-is-futile, you-will-be-assimilated” kindof place — isn’t the com-munity I recognize. Heck,as recent political history ofboth the county and Burley

vividly attest, nobody shiesaway from expressing dif-ferent opinions.

Gooding, Camas and Elkocounties are Tractor Coun-try, defined as “white, ruraland remote, with sparsepopulations and farmingand agribusiness as theireconomic base.” Jerome andMinidoka counties — Im-migration Nation — “areplaces (that) have large His-panic populations, lower-than-average incomes, andhigher-than-averagepoverty.”

I dunno, analysis-from-adistance rarely has the ringof truth.

If you doubt that, I’d rec-ommend a trip to TwinFalls’ Depot Grill,Shoshone’s Manhattan

Cafe or Heyburn’s Connor’sCafe on any weekdaymorning.

You’ll find ham and eggs,biscuits and gravy and ashort stack with bacon.

But the morning’s specialis always Talking Back.

T.F. County works tominimize St. Luke’srelocation stress

By Nick ColtrainTimes-News writer

The Twin Falls Countycommissioners have saidthey want St. Luke’s MagicValley Medical Center’smove to its new Twin Fallshospital to have as little animpact on patient care aspossible.

With Dr. David Chris-tensen’s practice, they’retrying to act on it.

Christensen, an ortho-pedic surgeon, is leasingspace in the St. Luke’s clin-ic building on ShoshoneStreet, which, like many ofthe current St. Luke’s facil-ities, is owned by TwinFalls County. Christensenis working to separate fromthe health system and goindependent — which putshis location in jeopardywhen the clinic revertsback to county control onJuly 1.

In response, the countywill compare Christensen’scurrent lease with St.Luke’s to what the countycan afford to do, trying tomimic the cost and bene-fits, the commissionerssaid at a meeting withChristensen on Monday.

“We will do everythingto accommodate this gen-tleman because we don’twant anything to happen topatient-care operations,”Commissioner TerryKramer said.

Christensen’s locationinside the Shoshone Streetclinic may work in his fa-vor, the commissioners

said: The practice is on thesecond floor, which will al-ready be kept open for thecounty assessor’s opera-tion. It may have beencost-prohibitive to keepthe utilities and infrastruc-ture active for one tenanton an otherwise vacantfloor, Kramer said. For thatreason, Christensen maylose use of the first-floorX-ray room.

The commissioners rec-ommended the arrange-ment not be a long-termlease because the ShoshoneStreet clinic will likely berenovated to hold non-medical office space.

Kramer said Christensenis one of two doctors to ap-proach the county about itssoon-to-be-open medicalfacilities, though the otherdoctor was looking to ex-pand his office space.

Commission ChairmanGeorge Urie was the onlyone to raise an issue withthe lease: Will it interferewith the county’s do-not-compete contract with St.Luke’s regarding medicalcare? The commissionersall had different interpreta-tions of how restrictive thedo-not-compete is — orhow restrictive St. Luke’smay interpret it to be.

Kramer said he doesn’tthink a lease agreementwith Christensen wouldviolate the do-not-com-pete clause because Chris-tensen isn’t a competinghospital. He said he willraise the question with St.Luke’s officials today in apreviously scheduledmeeting.

being doubted, “if we getmore radiation, we’d live amore healthful life.’’

He is the modern fatherof this provocative theory,which has riled and in-trigued scientists fordecades. He also lives it.

On a bookshelf next tohis bed, just inches fromwhere he sleeps, sits ajagged brown rock, aboutthe size of a small bowlingball, dotted with flecks ofuranium, spilling invisiblerays.

Radiation is seen as adangerous phantom —both poisonous and invisi-ble.

And radiation is as much apolitical issue as a scientificone, with clashes amonganti-nuclear activists, pow-er companies, researchers

and governments.It stirs thoughts of can-

cers and birth defects, nu-clear weapons and fallout,Three Mile Island, Cher-nobyl and now FukushimaDaiichi. Calling it benefi-cial seems like a hoax, apolluter’s dream.

Yes, Luckey says, radia-tion is a poison. But highdoses and low doses haveopposite effects.

High doses kill and sick-en. Lab research and stud-ies of atomic bomb sur-vivors from Nagasaki andHiroshima proved that.But, he says, low levels bol-ster the body and extendlife spans. The effect iscalled hormesis, from theGreek word for excite.

HAILEY — Blaine Countyschools have faced criticismthis year over how meetingsare scheduled and conduct-ed, and saw legislation in-troduced that could dra-matically alter how they arefunded.

Two south-county resi-dents are willing to step upto those challenges, vyingfor a seat on the district’sboard of trustees on May 17.

Bellevue resident HallieKelly Star and Carey resi-dent Shawn Bennion bothemphasize that fiscal re-sponsibility will be key forthe district in coming years,whether the state modifieshow levies provide its fund-ing or not. The Legislaturerecently considered, but didnot pass, a bill that wouldhave required voters toreapprove every two yearsproperty tax levies that pro-vide more than half theschool district’s funding.

“We dodged a bullet withthe recent legislation,” Starsaid. “We need to make fis-cally responsible choices sowe’re never put in a positionwhere we need to cutteacher salaries or lay peo-ple off.”

Star advocates takinggreater advantage of non-financial resources in thecommunity, including vol-unteers and retirees. Shesaid her experience workingwith the Lee Pesky LearningCenter, as well as having aspecial-education kinder-gartner and a gifted fourthgrader, have given her per-spective on the district thatis deeper than that of theaverage parent.

One of Star’s top priori-

ties would be increasingpublic access to the board,providing more opportuni-ties to express concerns andoffer suggestions. Shewould also work to raisenon-parent communitymembers’ level of invest-ment in the school system.

“The school district inBlaine County is our largestemployer; there is a greatdeal of connection betweeneconomic growth and greatschools,” Star said, notingthat how a school district isperceived can have an effecton area property values.

Bennion said he is alsoconcerned with how thecommunity views theschool board. “Some ofthem are questioningwhether or not we’re beingresponsible,” he said.

He said recent state-levelchanges mean hard deci-sions are ahead, includinghow the board will deter-mine guidelines for merit-based pay for teachers, andhow to balance the use oftechnology with personal

attention by teachers.“The state is pushing

technology, and I’m all fortechnology, but technologycan’t replace the teacher,”Bennion said.

Bennion emphasized theimportance of infrastruc-ture, saying that the publichasn’t fully bought into en-ergy-saving upgrades thatthe schools are in the midstof. He also advocates addi-tional security measures,noting that many rooms inthe Carey school his kidsattend can be accessed easi-ly without passing a frontoffice.

He would like greater fo-cus placed on getting kidsinto postsecondary educa-tion, and is pleased that aleadership program triedfirst in Carey, called“Leader in Me,” will be ex-panded to other BlaineCounty elementary schoolsthis year.

Richfield schools propose $100,000 levy transferBy Ben BotkinTimes-News writer

Richfield School Districtisn’t asking taxpayers for ex-tra money, but voters stillhave an Election Day choiceto make on May 17.

The school district is ask-ing voters to approve trans-ferring $100,000 from its ex-isting 10-year plant facilitieslevy into its supplementallevy for the upcoming year.

The funding transfer,

which would only be for oneyear, is needed to help theschool district’s operatingexpenses as funding hasdwindled, said Superinten-dent Barbara Thronson.

“It’s just a one-year dealbecause of the major cutsthat Boise made,” she said,adding that school districtfaces a 7.9 percent reductionin funding.

The transfer would take$100,000 from the $139,000plant facilities levy — which

can only be used for facilitiesand maintenance costs —and give district officials theincreased spending options

associated with a supple-mental levy. Money trans-ferred would go toward var-ied needs like personnel,

technology,textbooks,Inter-net access and supplies,Thronson said.

Richfield voters approvedthe existing plant facilitieslevy in 2008, and also passeda separate, $225,000 two-year supplemental levy in2010.

Thronson said the districtis caught up with most of itsmajor facilities projects, suchas fixing the gym’s roof, andneeds the added flexibility.

She said the district is

pleased with the communi-ty’s past support of its pro-posals, even in tight eco-nomic times.

If the proposal fails, shesaid, the school board willhave to take a look at itsbudget and make tough deci-sions.

“This is critical that theypass this,”she said.

LLast week’s revelation that eastern Ida-ho’s 4,387-student Blackfoot SchoolDistrict may resort to a lottery in orderto determine which teachers lose theirjobs is just the latest in the series of

events that highlight the rift between labor andmanagement in our state’s K-12 education system.However loudly Blackfoot District board membersraise their voices to emphasize that such a lotterywould be “a last resort,” the reality is that meremention of the word trivializes the jobs that goodteachers do every day and implies that there’s noreal difference between good and bad teachers.

Meanwhile, back in Twin Falls, Xavier CharterSchool fired its principal for withholding infor-mation regarding a potential hire while at thesame time not quite being able to figure out a wayto get its employee’s health insurance premiumspaid by the due date. Unfortunately, Xavier’sBoard of Trustees refused to hold themselves re-sponsible, instead placing blame squarely on thebacks of those they had hired. And in the midst ofthis spat, once again it’s the teachers that findthemselves “guilty by association” and having tospend their time answering questions from angryparents.

And finally, area residents again had the oppor-tunity to express their unrequited angst againstState Superintendent of Public Instruction TomLuna by signing their names to recall petitions be-ing circulated throughout the state. Not content tolet area children enjoy Easter egg hunts last week-end, organizers of the recall drive scheduled theirpetition drives to occur at the very same locationsas the egg hunts.“Find an egg, lose a superinten-dent” may well have been their marketing strate-gy. And what a poorly conceived strategy it was.

Each of these three stories results in exactly thesame thing — it causes us to focus on the dysfunc-tionality of public education in Idaho rather thanon the thousands of teachers that daily connectwith students in order to exchange knowledge andhelp those kids learn to think. These teachers de-serve far more than the possibility that their ca-reers become short-circuited in a “teacher lot-tery.”

The Blackfoot School District needs to quitesimply try harder to differentiate teacher per-formance. The Xavier Board of Trustees need topublicly take responsibility for their actions. And— as important as a recall drive is to practicingdemocracy — it’s well past time to stop interrupt-ing our kids’ Easter egg hunts to gain 158,107 sig-natures.

The education of our students in kindergartenthrough high school will be far more successful ifteachers are valued and if they work together withadministrators and school board members in pur-suit of a common goal.

T H E L I G H T E R S I D E O F P O L I T I C S

WWASHINGTON —In the Great Bud-get Debate, De-

mocrats and Republicans arecloser than you might think.Neither is proposing a bal-anced budget anytime soon;both peddle soothing mythsto convince supporters thatthey’re upholding either“liberal” or “conservative”values. Meanwhile, the pub-lic seems largely cluelessabout the enormity of theproblem.In 2021,the Con-gressional Budget Officereckons that even after a fulleconomic recovery the re-maining deficit will equal al-most 5 percent of gross do-mestic product.In today’sdollars,that’s $750 billion.It’s the hole that needs filling.

We won’t make muchprogress until (a) Democratsconcede that spending con-trol requires genuine cuts inSocial Security andMedicare, which now total$1.3 trillion annually andrepresent 35 percent of fed-eral outlays; and (b) Repub-licans acknowledge that,even after significantspending cuts, tax increaseswill be needed to balance thebudget. Last week, there waslittle sign of either. PresidentObama rebuffed Social Se-curity and Medicare cuts.Most Republicans held faston taxes.

What we have instead is apublic relations war. Bothparties propound brands ofwishful thinking designed tomake it seem that they’reaccomplishing more thanthey are.

Start with the Republi-cans. House Budget Com-mittee Chairman PaulRyan’s plan fulfills the no-tax-increase requirement.Yet, deficits shrink. Howdoes he do that? Well, hedoesn’t touch Social Securi-ty, the government’s biggestprogram with $9.9 trillion ofprojected spending from2012 to 2021. He does pro-pose a voucher program forMedicare, but it doesn’t takeeffect until 2022 and ex-empts the 77 million Ameri-cans now 55 and over. Ryanisn’t picking a fight withseniors.

He achieves big savings byassuming deep cuts to mostof the federal governmentbeyond Social Security,Medicare and Medicaid. Ul-timately, it would shrink toalmost nothing. That’s de-fense, food stamps, high-

ways, federal courts, basicresearch ... and much more.Altogether, these programsconstitute about 12 percentof GDP. By 2022, Ryan’s planwould reduce them to 6 per-cent of GDP; by 2050, they’dbe about 3 percent, esti-mates the CBO. The UnitedStates would virtually dis-arm, dismantle much of thesocial safety net and starveimportant federal responsi-bilities, from environmentalregulation to the FBI. Thisisn’t likely to happen — andshouldn’t.

Democrats are as bad orworse.Remember that Oba-ma’s original budget for 2012envisioned deficits of $9.5 trillion over the nextdecade (2012-2021),accord-ing to the CBO.So Obama’snow-promised additional $4trillion of savings over 12years — with another $2 tril-lion of deficits — barelytouches the problem.Rhetorically,Democrats fin-ger familiar villains to explainand cure the deficits.Thesedon’t withstand scrutiny.

One is: the Bush tax cutsfor the rich. The trouble isthat Obama’s budget alreadyassumes higher rates (39.6 percent) on incomesexceeding $200,000 (indi-viduals) and $250,000 (cou-ples). Suppose we get

tougher on the very rich.One proposal would raiserates to 45 percent on in-comes from $1 million to $10 million, with rates in-creasing to 49 percent on in-comes of $1 billion. Over adecade, tax revenues wouldgrow about $900 billion,says the advocacy groupCitizens for Tax Justice. As-suming the money material-ized, it’s a lot — but only atenth of the decade’sdeficits.

Another liberal villain: thewars in Iraq and Afghanistan.They’ve cost $1.26 trillionfrom 2001 to 2011,reckonsthe CBO.Again,a lot of mon-ey.But it,too,pales next to allspending ($29.8 trillion) ordeficits ($6.2 trillion) over thesame period.Here,too,Oba-ma’s budget already assumesbig cuts.

Our budget problem isconceptually simple. Gov-ernment’s spending com-mitments, driven by moreretirees and uncontrolledhealth costs, vastly exceedthe existing tax base. Thereis an argument about howfast changes should be madeto protect the economic re-covery. There should be noargument over the need forchanges to prevent a debtcrisis: Too many Treasurybonds frighten investors and

drive up interest rates.But it also matters how we

do this. By policy and pro-crastination, both Democ-rats and Republicans wouldlargely exempt today’s eld-erly from changes and shiftthe burden to workers andthe young. That’s not “liber-al” or “conservative.” It’s ex-pedient — and bad forAmerica’s future. It suggeststhe young will pay evenhigher taxes and receiveeven fewer public services. Itwill make raising a familyharder and possibly determillions from doing so. Itmay endanger America’s se-curity by shortsighted mili-tary cutbacks.

We still await a seriousdebate about which pro-grams to cut and which taxesto raise. Congressional Re-publicans advance a radicalplan for shrinking govern-ment — and are not candidabout it. Obama defends thestatus quo of ever-biggergovernment — and is notcandid about it. Perhapsthese are negotiating posi-tions and, needing to raisethe federal debt ceiling, bothsides will recognize theirshortcomings. It’s a hope.

vastly exceed the existing tax base.”

Standard & Poor’s

had a role in crash

Dear Mr. Jefferson:I recently reread your ar-

ticle about irrigating theTree of Liberty. I think,however, your choice ofcandidates is a bit limited.May I suggest the entire or-ganization of Standard &Poor’s?

In case you did not know,these are the same hood-lums who fraudulently la-beled mortgage bond in-vestments as Triple Awhen those investmentswere in fact comprised of

worthless pools of junkmortgages. These co-con-spirators helped to crashour own country andworld’s economy and havenot borne any responsibili-ty for it. Now, S&P has thecheek to question the cred-it worthiness of the UnitedStates and to admonish ourgovernment in its struggleto control the national debtwhen S&P in fact causedthe debt.

Mr. Jefferson, please addStandard & Poor’s to yourlist.

hamlet that has no homemail delivery, left me saying,“Aw, cute.” Why must peo-ple in Glenwood Landingpick up their mail at the postoffice? Because the commu-nity has fewer than the 750addresses necessary to makeup a route. There are moresuch places nationally thanwe would guess.

But the sensible questionisn’t why tiny-town folkdon’t get catalogs, pizzacoupons and credit-card of-fers delivered to theirhomes: It’s, why do the restof us?

The Postal Service, theo-retically self-supporting,will lose a non-theoretical$6.4 billion this year. Thereare many reasons for this,the biggest being workersdriving around six days aweek delivering fewer andfewer quaint pieces of paperto all of us.

The idea for reform cur-rently getting the most at-tention in Congress is end-ing Saturday delivery.

The vast majority ofAmerican homes and busi-nesses shouldn’t receivemail delivery at all. Mostshould pick up their stufffrom P.O. boxes, as often asthey wish. This would im-prove things in a number ofways:

• It would stop the finan-cial bleeding. The PostalService has cut 100,000employees in the last twoyears, yet it still has 572,000— one of the largest civilianwork forces in the world. Itcan’t shrink fast enough tobreak even without massivechanges.

• As much as traditionalmail volume has been re-duced,it ought to declineeven more.There’s no reasonfor us to receive most bills bymail,or pay them that wayeither.The same is true ofthe mail for our invisibleroommate “Occupant.”It’san expensive and resource-intensive system that’spropped up by home maildelivery.Most of us wouldmove all our dealings onlineif that delivery stopped.

• It would vastly reducecarbon emissions by elimi-nating deliveries and, as I’llshow in a second, create anew source of revenue thatwould actually drive mailprices down.

It probably makes sense tokeep delivering mail to hugeapartment and commercialbuildings, because they’reessentially routes in and ofthemselves. But elsewhere,it’s silly.

There are two main argu-ments against moving most

mail delivery to post officeboxes: Having people go tothe post office causes moredriving than delivering themail, and we’d have to buildenough post offices to holdmillions of new boxes.

Both can be solved withone letter,reading: “Dear su-permarket owners,In eachcommunity you serve,eachof you that submits highenough bids will be allowedto build and maintain 5,000postal boxes in your store.Customers will come to pickup mail,and probably shopthere an awful lot,so bidhigh.Yours truly,the UnitedStates Postal Service.”

Since we go to the super-market constantly, no tripswill be added.

It’s hard to change thesebig institutions with thetimes, but not impossible.We just have to think outsidethe mailbox.

How to Control Weeds in Your Lawn Weeds love all of the conditions that your lawn doesn’t. Soil that’s too dry or too wet, thin spots, underfed grass — they look like home sweet home to all kinds of weeds. If you keep your lawn healthy, you’ll do a lot to keep weeds from taking over. Just follow these simple tips, and your lawn will look the way you always wanted it to.Some people think that healthy lawns look like putting greens. h e fact is, longer grass grows longer, healthier roots. By raising the setting on your lawnmower, you’ll do a lot to help your grass grow thick and healthy. A thick lawn keeps weeds out.Lawns need nutrients. Regular feeding helps them develop healthy roots and blades. Start with a spring feed around the fi rst time that you mow. Follow with a late summer, fall, and h anksgiving feeding, and your lawn will be as lush and beautiful as you’ve wanted it to be. If weeds have been well established in your yard, start out with a weed-and-feed product, such as Scotts® Turf Builder® with Plus2® Weed Control. Lawns need water, but not too much or too little. Give your lawn a deep watering about once or twice a week. Frequent, shallow watering doesn’t do much for lawns, but it’s really helpful for weeds. Too little water stresses the lawn, and invites still more weeds to set up shop in your yard. Maybe you have a battle going on in your yard, and the weeds are winning. In that case, you need to take more direct measures throughout the growing season. In the spring, feed your lawn with a product containing a pre-emergent. h is will take care of grassy weeds. If your problem is dandelions, use Scotts® Turf Builder® with Plus 2® Weed Control. Spot-kill weeds when you see them with a weed-killer such as Ortho Weed-B-Gon MAX® Weed Killer for Lawns. It should

take care of the weeds.

ASHLEY SMITH/Times-News

Mike Tucker of Filer integrated rock groundcover into his garden three years ago after discovering that the

redwood bark he originally laid there collected three inches high at his front doorstep in high winds.

DREW NASH/Times-News

Louise Koontz uses bark throughout the landscaping of her home near Kimberly. ‘It defines the flowerbeds

and makes them look neater, more manicured than they would be without it,’ she says.

Find your place in the groundcover debateBy Ariel Hansen ❖ Times-News writer

With spring getting into full swing, the flowerbeds and landscaping that survived the winter are calling out for attention.Once you have a plan for the placement of bushes and flowers, the finishing touch is an attractive groundcover. But which tochoose: rock or bark?

Your neighbors, and Kimberly Nurseries president Dave Wright, shared their experiences with each to help you decide.Take our quiz, then see what your answers mean for you.

ROCK vs. BARK

HHooww wwiinnddyy iiss iitt aatt yyoouurr hhoouussee??

AA:: Very windy — sometimes I worry mypets will get blown into Oz, like Toto andDorothy.

B: When we get the strongest winds, leavesand debris pile up against the house, butit’s usually not a problem.

C: It’s quite protected at my house, espe-cially in my garden. I often read the Times-News out there without the paper gettingcaught by the wind.

What ddooeess yyoouurr llaannddssccaappiinngg llooookklliikkee,, pprriimmaarriillyy??

AA:: Larger trees, lawn or larger expansesyou’d like covered up, maybe a fewflowerbeds.

B: Small trees, large bushes, some flowersand pathways.

C: Lots of flowerbeds and small bushes; alush landscape.

How oofftteenn ddoo yyoouu wwaanntt ttoo ddoo mmaaiinntteennaannccee oonn yyoouurr ggrroouunnddccoovveerr??

AA:: As infrequently as possible, but I don’tmind making (or paying for) a big effortonce or twice a decade.

B: It doesn’t matter to me, since I prefer tocontract the job out to landscapers.

C: I’d rather make a smaller effort everyyear or two, with a little attention in be-tween.

And hhooww ddooeess yyoouurr cchheecckkbbooookk ffeeeellaabboouutt tthhiiss??

AA:: A large initial outlay that’s repeated justonce or twice a decade. Rip off that Band-Aid and get it over with.

B: Either A or C is OK with me.C: More even costs would make me happi-er — a smaller initial outlay, then about athird of that initial cost every few years.

If you answered mostly A ...

... You’ll probably want to go for rock.With all the wind at your house, your preference to put out more ef-

fort and money but less often, and your sparer landscape, rock could befor you.

“Two years ago or so, we had those real bad windstorms, 60 mphwinds,” said Filer resident Mike Tucker, who had bark put in when hishome was built in 2003.“All the redwood chips were piled about threeinches deep in front of my front door, and were all over the yard. Wewent with the rock after that.”

Tucker uses drip irrigation under the groundcover, and his land-scape has a lot of trees, bushes andlawn, but not a lot of flowerbeds. Hesaid he didn’t like how the redwoodfaded over a few years, and he hadsome issues with spiders that he does-n’t have now that his groundcover isrock.

A trade-off? He has to keep on topof the weeds, which tend to grow upthrough the rock more easily than theydo through the denser bark.

Although Tucker hasn’t had to domuch maintenance on his rock yet,Kimberly Nurseries president DaveWright said it will need to be pulledout and replaced every six or sevenyears.

“There’s a lot of people who thinkrock is lower maintenance, but it’s not,it’s just putting off maintenance,”Wright said.“Eventually so much leafdebris and dirt get between the rocksand break down, then they make a bedfor weeds to grow in anyway.”

He said weed killers can be used inrock where you don’t have plants youwant to preserve, but it’s harder tohand-pull weeds from rock than frombark.

If you answered mostly B ...

... Either rock or bark would likely work for you— but consider consulting your neighbors abouttheir experience, or talking to alandscaping professional, togather more information be-fore you decide.

“We’ve used everythingfrom red lava rock to bark.Each one of them has a certainendearing quality, and eachone has their own liability,”said Gary Garnand of TwinFalls.“You can go in with a leafblower and blow the leavesout of the rock. The lava rockwill have a tendency to moveon you, and of course the barkwill move all over heck andgone.”

Garnand likes red lava rock(which also comes in othercolors) for areas that can gethot without killing whateveryou have growing in them, asthe rock tends to capture andhold heat. Paler gray rock alsocan change temperature dra-matically in summer — heat-ing during the day and cooling at night — but lessso than the lava rock.

“The more constant a temperature you can bein, the healthier (your plants are) going to be,”Wright said.

For areas that get some wind which isn’t usuallya problem, bark comes in several sizes; the biggerthe pieces, the less likely they are to blow around.

“Nothing is weed-free, nothing is mainte-nance-free,” Wright said. Each option has trade-offs.

If you answered mostly C ...

... You’re a good candidate for bark.Your lush flowerbeds would work best with bark,

because the wood product adds tothe soil as it breaks down, improv-ing your garden over time.

“It defines the flowerbeds andmakes them look neater, moremanicured than they would bewithout it,” said Louise Koontz ofKimberly.“When they first put itdown, it smells so good! If (thescent) would only last all year, it’dbe so wonderful.”

She said she also has to waterless,because the bark traps mois-ture.This can be a double-edgedsword,though; because of the bark’slayer’s thickness,she can’t tell if anarea isn’t getting enough water fromher drip system until the plantsabove start wilting.

Koontz,who gardens a lot at herold farmstead,said it would also beharder to change her mind aboutwhat to plant where if she used rock.

Bark does need to be replenishedevery year or two — but not com-pletely, unlike rock.“You just basi-

cally top it off for what decomposes and what blowsaway,” Wright said.

Wright cautioned that there are wood products onthe market that are not appropriate for flowerbedsand landscaping, including those made of heart-wood, often described as wood mulch or woodchips.

When heartwood decomposes, it leaches nitrogenfrom the soil, he said. So if you’re laying thegroundcover yourself, make sure you’re getting ac-tual bark.

concern with using rocks in a

garden is that they can heat up

QQMy roses are starting tobud, but I’ve seen con-

flicting reports on whetherto prune them back. What’syour advice? Also, whatdoes renewal pruning mean?

AASince buds are justforming, this is the time

to prune stems to a little less

than half the length of thebranches and cut each onejust above a newly emerg-ing bud. New growth willbegin on these fresh stemsfor the coming year. Rosescan be maintained asshrub, multiflora, hybridtea or miniature and willusually flower voluntarilythroughout the growingseason.

If yours are hybrid tea va-rieties, they will grow newflowers each time youprune a faded flower. Cutthe old branch just abovewhere the leaf stem isgrowing a set of fivehealthy leaflets. It willgrow a fresh bud from thelocation just below where

the cane had a fadingflower.

Renewal pruning meansshrubs have grown toolarge and can be cut lowerand narrower than theyhave become, which isusually successful withmost overgrown woodyshrubs.

Advice for newgardeners; helpwith tomatoesBy Adrian HigginsThe Washington Post

Here’s an edited excerptfrom an online Q&A hostedby Washington Post gar-dening columnist AdrianHiggins.

QQI’m creating a gardenfor the first time on my

lawn. Should I add com-mercial fertilizer or juststart with compost? Iwould like to create an or-ganic garden, or as organicas practicality allows.

AAFertilizer is the lastthing you need to wor-

ry about. First, the sitemust be in full sun. Second,it must be in a free-drain-ing area. Then you can startto dismantle the lawn andcreate growing beds. Skimoff the turf and createraised beds with lots ofgood organic matter. Hur-ry, the planting season isupon us.

QQI’ve had a tomato andbasil garden for a few

years. Last spring, I plantedsome heirlooms of theFiorentina type. They allgot hit by the wilt and pro-duced only stunted fruit. Isthere anything I can do thisyear, or do the harmful ele-ments that cause wilt stayin the soil forever?

AAFirst, the season lastyear for tomatoes was

dreadful, not just becauseof late blight disease.

Don’t put tomato plantsout too early; they really getset back by cold soil. Also, Iwould plant some fail-safecherry tomatoes such asSun Gold, Black Cherryand Super Sweet 100.Whatever the seasonthrows at those guys, theyseem to be able to take it.My general rule withtomatoes is: The bigger itis, the harder it is to raise agood fruit to maturity.

QQFor the past two sum-mers we have been

plagued by both early andlate tomato blight. I evenplanted last year’s toma-toes in half-barrels ofbrand-new soil. Is our on-

ly option to spray the vinesconstantly with Daconil?We really can’t live with-out our Brandywines.

AA I don’t think any veg-gie is worth growing if

you have to spray it withsynthetic pesticides. Ifyou are using the samecontainers, I would get ridof all the soil (and obvi-ously any of last year’svegetation) and grow less-demanding varieties, in-cluding hybrids with dis-ease resistance. I thinkBrandywine is overratedand difficult to grow.

QQI’ve heard a lot of dif-ferent opinions about

when or whether to mulcharound vegetables.

AAMulch is valuable forkeeping weeds down

and conserving soil mois-ture. Chopped straw isperfect for this; I wouldjust be careful not to lay ittoo thick. Don’t useshredded bark or wood.

QQMy husband and I areattempting a small

garden (4 by 4 feet) on ourback patio. We’ve nevergrown anything before, soI’m a little worried abouthow to start. We wanttomatoes, a variety ofherbs, onions, maybesquash and/or peas. Is thattoo much?

AAYour ambitions ex-ceed your real estate. I

would just grow some let-tuce or mesclun mix nowand then plan to growstuff vertically in the sum-mer: a couple of tomatoplants and some polebeans.

QQHow does one figureout what areas in a

very tree-laden yard getsix hours of full sunlight aday?

AAFirst, wait for theleaves to fill out,

which takes the wholemonth of April. Observethe light patterns between11 a.m. to 5 p.m. The sun-niest spots are what you’regoing for. It will requiresome presence, thoughnot continuously.

FEARLESSLY ORGANIZED

By Katie AberbachThe Washington Post

It’s easy to think of rea-sons to avoid spring cleaning(or cleaning and neateningat any time of the year, real-ly): It’s time-consuming,tiring and often frustrating.It reminds you that you’vetotally bailed on your NewYear’s resolution. It remindsyou just how tiny your closetreally is. But there are alsoreasons to embrace de-clut-tering.

Leah Ingram’s “Toss,Keep, Sell!’’ ($15, AdamsMedia) casts the eternalchore in a new light — a lu-crative light, as a matter offact. Filled with DIY tips forreducing junk, reor-ganizing essentialbelongings andselling the posses-sions you’re readyto part with, In-gram’s book revealsthat even shortbursts of cleaningcan reap major pay-offs. The New Hope,Pa.-based authorand blogger (Suddenlyfru-gal.com) shared her clutter-clearing philosophies.

QQWhy do you recom-mend quick, intense

cleaning sessions ratherthan a major overhaul?

AAThe little steps will addup. You have to be nice

to yourself and realize that

you didn’t create this clutterproblem in 15 minutes, andyou’re not going to fix it in 15

minutes. But(spend) 15 minutes(cleaning) once ortwice a day for acouple of weeksand you’ll beshocked.

You go into itthinking, I can’tget anythingdone in 15 min-

utes. And then youcome out on the other sideand say,“Oh my gosh, I can’tbelieve how much I got donein 15 minutes.’’

QQWhich common house-hold items make good

organizing tools?

AAHooks. We transformedour mudroom from a

dumping ground of sports

bags and cleats and fieldhockey sticks into a spacethat you can actually walkthrough, simply by puttingup hooks on three walls. Justgetting stuff up off the floor— even if it’s not perfectlyorganized — can go a longway toward making a spaceact and look more organized.

QQWhich organizationalsupplies are worth

spending money on?

AAA label maker, as sillyas that seems, can real-

ly help get you organized be-cause there’s somethingabout a neat and tidy labelon the front of a bunch ofboxes that makes thingslook better. My husbandused a label maker to put la-bels on all of his dresserdrawers.It makes puttingaway laundry a whole loteasier.It’s not pretty,though— House Beautiful willprobably never come to myhouse and do a photo shoot.Also,if you know that you’regoing to donate items on aregular basis or have a yardsale,invest in a couple of bigRubbermaid bins to holdthings you’re going to giveaway.You can keep them inyour car.That way,they’renot cluttering up your home.

QQDo you recommendholding yard sales to get

rid of clutter?

AAI recommend themwith a caveat. It’s very

easy to spend a lot of timeorganizing a yard sale at yourhome or in your neighbor-hood — from setting up topricing — but not (easy) toget a good return on your in-vestment of time. So, I ad-

vocate finding an organizedyard sale, flea market or an-tiques market where you canbuy a table.

It sounds counterintu-itive, but if you spend $10 or$20 to buy a table at a yardsale that somebody else hasorganized and somebodyelse has advertised, it is wellworth your time. But behonest with yourself. Ifyou’re selling crap that’s notgoing to bring you the $20that you paid for the table,then just donate your thingsto a good cause and take thetax write-off.

QQHow does de-clutter-ing your home con-

tribute to its value?

AAIt’s pretty simple: Whenyour home is cluttered,

when your closets are full,when your basement ispacked to the rafters, itmakes your home looksmaller. It easily turns offwould-be buyers becausethey don’t want to knowwhat you’ve stored in thebasement, they don’t wantto know what kind of shoesyou wear, they don’t want tosee pictures of your family;they almost want a cleanslate. Paring down your be-longings can be really tough,though.

QQHow do you convince askeptic that it’s worth-

while?

AAYou have to think aboutthe old adage “A picture

is worth a thousand words.’’... You have to make yourhome look good enough forthe photographs that yourreal estate agent is eventual-ly going to want to take.

When you weed, get deep enough to get the rootsBy Kathy Van MullekomDaily Press (Newport News, Va.)

The plants you call“weeds’’ are true survivors,thriving against all odds.

Most propagate by seed,and the worst offenders canproduce tens of thousandsof seeds per plant, per sea-son. Common lambsquar-ters, for instance, easily pro-duce up to 70,000 seeds an-nually per plant, seeds thatcan last decades if leftundisturbed below the soilsurface.

Not all seeds sprout intoweeds immediately, ofcourse. Millions of themsettle into the soil wherethey can wait years for a bitof sunlight to spark them in-to growth. Particularly per-nicious are broadleaf peren-nial weeds, such asknotweed, purslane andthistle that propagate byseed and also vegetatively,regrowing from bits of theplant or root. If you chop up

these types of weeds, youmerely make more of them.

It is possible to win thewar on weeds. Prevention

hinges on:•• SSttooppppiinngg current weeds

from going to seed.•• PPrreevveennttiinngg future weed

seeds from sprouting.First, remove any existing

weeds, including roots.Starting with this cleanslate, add a layer of protec-tive mulch to starve any justsprouted weeds of sunlight.

Next, apply a pre-emer-gent weed preventer such asPreen to prevent any existingweed seeds in the top layer ofsoil or mulch from formingroots.

Periodically, a few weedswill still crop up — removethem. Reapply weed preven-ter mid-season to keep seedsfrom the current year’s weedcrop from germinating,bear-ing in mind that many weedsset seed in late summer orfall.Refresh mulch as needed.

Each spring, as you startthe process again, you’ll findfewer and fewer weeds todeal with. Do a weekly weedpatrol, enjoying your gardenwhile you pluck any offend-ers. Following a simple seed-focused routine allows youto turn the corner on weeds.

Grain off to good start throughout S. Idaho

By Cindy SnyderTimes News correspondent

While strong prices are givingproducers an incentive to plantgrain this spring, they’re plantingbetween storms.

Clark Kauffman, who farms nearFiler, got his spring grain planted ina timely fashion and says it’s start-ing to emerge.Most of his neighborsfinished planting their spring grainduring the relatively dry weekend.

That puts them in pretty goodcompany. According to the IdahoAgricultural Statistics Service’sweekly crop progress report, 88percent of the spring wheat hasbeen planted in south-central Idaho— about 6 percentage points behindthe five-year average. Approxi-mately 37 percent of that hasemerged, also slightly behind theaverage of 42 percent.

Spring barley is a little farther be-hind with just 70 percent in theground compared to 84 percent forthe average. But emergence isslightly ahead at 32 percent com-pared to 30 percent.

Statewide, 49 percent of thespring wheat and 46 percent of thespring barley is planted, close to av-erage.

“I don’t think we’re behind,”Kauffman said. “We’re going be-tween storms and getting a lotdone.”

The abundance of spring mois-ture is paying off too. Not only arethe rains keeping the soil soft andhelping the grain, pea and sugarbeet crops emerge, but irrigationwater supplies across southern Ida-ho are expected to be good this year.

Overall, winter wheat looks goodacross southern Idaho. And even

the late-planted acres are starting togreen up. Nearly 70 percent of thecrop is rated as good with another 10 percent rated as excellent.

And Kauffman is thankful not tobe in the Dakotas where springflooding has left fields saturated andgrowers aren’t likely to start doingany field work until May 6th or inthe Southern Plains where droughtis decimating the winter wheatcrop.

Growers in Wichita, Kan., saythey are on track to have one of the10 driest springs on record and thatdoesn’t count the dryness prior toMarch 1. In southwestern Kansas,

growers are starting irrigation sys-tems as soon as they finish plantingfields. There’s no significant rain inthe forecast for the Plains and evenif storms do materialize, it’s likelytoo late to revitalize winter wheat inparts of Texas and Oklahoma.

Not surprisingly, the U.S. De-partment of Agriculture cut itsgood-to-excellent rating for allwinter wheat by one percentagepoint from last week to 35 percent andraised the poor-to-very-poor ratingtwo percentage points to 40 percent.In comparison,69 percent

Nursery growers reminded of Monday insurance deadline

The USDA’s Risk Management Agency (RMA) isadvising Pacific Northwest nursery growers of theMonday sales closing date for 2012 Nursery Multi-Peril Crop Insurance (MPCI) coverage.

MPCI Nursery insurance provides protection forwholesale nurseries producing and marketing nurs-ery plants grown in standard nursery containers orin the field.

Coverage is based on a plant inventory value re-port (PIVR) declaring a value of insurable plant.

New policy applications may be filled at any time;however, all applications, including those for new oramended coverage, are subject to a 30-day waitingperiod before commencement of coverage.

Current nursery policyholders may requestchanges in coverage and/or obtain the Pilot NurseryGrower’s Price Endorsement (NGPE) in Oregon andWashington, prior to the May 2 sales closing dead-line.

Local crop insurance agents are available to pro-vide program details that reflect the grower’s nurs-ery inventory.

A list of crop insurance agents is available at allUSDA Service Centers throughout the U.S. or at thewebsite address: http://www3.rma.usda.gov/tools/agents.

Farmers and chefs connect at local foods event

The Treasure Valley Farmer-Chef Collaborativewill pair buyers and sellers during an upcomingevent.

The May 10 interactive event is fashioned afterpopular “speed dating,” to provide farmers, ranch-ers and chefs an opportunity to discuss ways tosource fresh and local agriculture to local foodies.

“Local restaurants are eager to capitalize on thegrowing “locavore movement,” the desire to eat lo-cal and seasonal foods, by offering unique, seasonalmenus featuring only the freshest items available,”Skylar Jett of the Idaho State Department Agricul-ture said in a prepared statement.

The Farmer-Chef Collaborative aims to buildconnections within the community.

The event will be held at from 1:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. at the Doubletree Riverside Inn, Boise.

Cost is $25 per agribusiness. Pre-registration isrequired.

For farmers in the MagicValley, spring isn’t just timefor planting and watchingseedlings shoot up. It’s also atime for manning battle sta-tions against an army of hun-gry critters only too willing toeat fields of alfalfa and haybefore farmers ever get achance to harvest.

Though spraying measureslast year have left hope thatcricket and black fly numberswill remain down, grasshop-pers and voles could reartheir hungry heads this sum-mer, too. Those two speciescan munch such a dent in lo-cal crops that University ofIdaho Extension Educator for

Lincoln County, ChristiFalen, said their actions canhave a significant economicimpact.

“(Farmers) just can’t han-dle a whole revenue loss ontop of a crop loss several yearsin a row,” Falen said. “It’s justtoo hard, especially for someof our smaller growers.”

Alfalfa is particularly vul-nerable. Falen said the plantis like candy to grasshoppersand voles, especially theleaves.

But farmers also covet theleaves in alfalfa crops grownfor feed because a higher leafcount means a higher qualityalfalfa and a better buyingprice.

“You have to maintain theleaves as much as possible, so

a reduction in leaves reallyhurts the quality,” Falen said.“We have to keep in mind notonly a yield reduction but aquality reduction.”

The best way to save theleaves for bigger animals andkeep smaller nuisances at bayis to react early.

Twin Falls Extension Edu-cator Steve Hines said smalltweaks in farming practices

can hinder pests’ march intofields. Sprinkler irrigationand reduced plowing bothencourage vole infestations.Flood methods of irrigationflush out voles already infields and plowing leaves lessorganic matter for the volesto house themselves in dur-ing the winter.

Idaho Statesman

Thanks to the increasing qualityof Idaho vintners, Idaho’s wine in-dustry is growing in stature andsize.

Just three years ago, Idaho had 32wineries. That has grown to 43,and inquiries about starting

wineries come to the Idaho WineCommission in Boise on a weeklybasis. Most of the wineries are inthe Snake River Valley, primarilyaround Caldwell and Nampa. Afew are in the panhandle, and thePalouse region promises to be agrowth area.

About 1,600 acres of vineyards

are in Idaho, primarily in the Cald-well-Nampa region. The largestvineyard, Skyline, is 450 acres andowned by Precept Wines in Seat-tle.

Idaho’s oldest and largest wineryis Ste. Chapelle in Caldwell, whichstarted in 1976 and is owned by As-centia Wine Estates in California.

Thanks to Ste. Chapelle, Riesling isthe state’s largest variety, thoughChardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignonand Merlot also are important.Moya Shatz, executive director ofthe Idaho Wine Commission, saidRhone varieties such as Syrah andViognier grow extremely well inthe Snake River Valley.

“I think that’s what we’ll beknown for eventually,” she said.

The Snake River Valley is highmountain desert, with elevationsbetween 1,500 and 3,300 feetabove sea level, much higher thanother West Coast regions.

Planting percentageslightly behind average

Falen also said changingwinter habits can keep volesat bay. Choosing not to plantcover crops in winter leavesthe voles more exposed topredators like hawks andcoyotes.

But once winter is over,thenext best thing to do is payclose attention to theperimeters. Both Hines andFalen said pests will appearfirst on public ground at theedges of fields, in areas likethe ditches near roads andthe pivot corners for sprin-klers. Many of the baits de-signed to poison voles are notsafe to sprinkle on crops, butare good for edging fieldswith.

“It’s much better if youcan catch them on theperimeter; it’s the same withgrasshoppers and voles,”Falen said.

Many other pest-man-agement chemicals require alicense to use, which can getpricey if the farmer has tohire someone to do the appli-cations. Falen said in otheryears, farmers have pooledtogether to get chemicalssprayed over several farmswith one sweep of an air-plane.

But keeping an early eyeplays into pesticide use, too.

Falen said government agen-cies that monitor animalpopulations, such as the U.S.Department of Agriculture,want population levels toreach a certain density beforefarmers spray them. Forgrasshoppers, the thresholdis more than 15 of the hop-pers per square yard.

“For grasshoppers, thebest thing you can do is scout

really early,” Falen said,adding that the best vantagepoint is ground level.

“I tell them to get downlow and look for them be-cause you’re looking for thebabies. They’re teeny tinyand they don’t hop,”she said.

If pests have farmers attheir wits’ end before springis in sight, Hines counselspatience and offers hope

from a powerful ally: MotherNature.

“Their life cycle is verycyclical,” he said. “They’re ina high cycle right now, butwith disease and things likethat,they’ll crash.”

Eventually.

This gives Idaho a distinctadvantage, because warmerdays and cooler nights helpretain grapes’ important nat-ural acidity and give resultingwines better balance. Shatzpointed out that while Idaho’sgrowing season is a littleshorter than Washington’s,the Snake River Valley has fewissues getting grapes ripe.

Here are a few Snake RiverValley wines that are avail-able for tasting:

lleeyy,, $$99:: There’s a big hit oforange oil in the nose withgrapefruit, gooseberry andlime peel along with miner-ality and petrol. As a drink,it’s bone-dry and very re-freshing with lemon bitters,lychee nut and white grape-fruit pith.

Thenose features raspberry,cherries, chocolate and limezest. The theme of raspberryand cherry continues withthe drink. Black pepper, nottannin, is the focus of thefinish.

Indian Creek Winery 2008Pinot Noir, Snake River Val-ley, $15: This rare Idaho PinotNoir offers aromas of violets,strawberries and Rainiercherries, followed by flavorsof cranberries and red plums.It opens with bright elegantfruit that gives way to a richmidpalate and finish.

Skill shows on

the palate with a smooth en-try of soft fruit, vibrant acid-ity and a nice hit of chocolatebefore the arrival of tannin.

DEAR ABBY: I’m writingin response to “FeelingGuilty in North Carolina”(March 18), who feels guiltyusing address labels, calen-dars and notepads fromorganizations solicitingdonations. Last year, forabout six months, I collect-ed all the requests for dona-tions I received. Abby, thetotal was 532 requests from119 organizations! Yes, I’moverwhelmed, and I nolonger feel guilty abouttossing them. I sent all ofthem letters requesting theydelete my name from theirlists. One hundred eighteenignored my request. Oneasked how often I wantinformation from them.

I give the notepads andother enclosures toGoodwill and shred thelabels. Ironically, I receivemore labels now than everbefore, even though I paymost bills online and emailrather than write. I donateless than I ever have in thepast because I feel sohounded, so in my case, ithas worked against them.

KAREN H. IN FORT COLLINS, COLO.

DEAR KAREN: Thanksfor the input. Letters fromreaders complaining aboutcharitable donationrequests with labels arrivein my office on a daily basis,so you can imagine the mailI have received in responseto the one I printed from“Feeling Guilty.” ead on:

DEAR ABBY: I, too,receive many “gifts” fromorganizations soliciting fordonations. My view is, ifthey’re using my donationto send gifts, then they real-ly don’t need my money.They should be using dona-tions to help whomever orwhatever it is they’re solic-iting for. I don’t feel guilty inthe least for using the labels,gifts, etc. I give to organiza-tions that do not send outfreebies; that’s how I directmy charitable donations.

SABRINA W..SOUTHGATE, MICH.

DEAR ABBY: I’m a pro-fessional fundraiser and I,too, receive the pads andaddress labels. I do not giveto every organization thatsends them, but I do usewhat they send. No oneshould feel guilty for doingso. Nonprofits buy and rentlists from companies, andthey don’t expect everyoneto respond. Nonprofitsaren’t trying to make any-one feel guilty or trick them;they just want to do thework of the causes you loveto support.

SUZANNE L.STATEN ISLAND, N.Y.

DEAR ABBY: Many solic-itation letters have a smallbox at the bottom askingyou to indicate if you wouldlike to be taken off theirmailing list. It’s worth the44 cents to return it.

Some areas recycle junkmail. After removing theaddress labels, the rest canbe put in the recycling binwith newspapers. Notepads, greeting cards andcalendar gifts could bedonated to a military per-sonnel drive, thrift store,nursing home or communi-ty center.

MARY F.STUART, FFLA.

DEAR ABBY: We con-tacted the post office andwere instructed not to openthe envelope, to write“Refused — Return toSender” on the front andput it back in the mailbox.The post office can thendecide what to do with it.

SANDRA M.MUKWONAGO, WIS.

DEAR ABBY: There’snothing “free” when organ-izations try to guilt us intosending money. My solu-tion for all this junk is, usethe labels and anything per-sonalized if I like them; ifnot, destroy them.Anything else I give to anursing home, local chil-dren’s museum to use forcrafts or to the Goodwill.When coins are attached, Iput them in a jar and givethem to my church.

rECREATIONAL

IF APRIL 26 IS YOURBIRTHHDAY: The call of wildand passionate ambitionscan compel you to burn thecandle at both ends whileyou set off on an intensesearch for glory in the yearahead. Your prayers may beanswered in July or Octoberwhen good fortune or bene-ficial opportunities couldcome your way. Betweennow and the end of August,and then again next winter,people in general are seeyour best characteristicsand will tend to give you thebenefit of the doubt. A pas-sionate soul mate couldappear or success with anew business or career ispossible. Since you glowwith sincerity you could bepromoted into a position oftrust or earn other rewards.

ARIES (March 21-April19): Some unansweredprayers are good for you.You want what you wantand want it now, but notgetting what you wantmight have unseen advan-tages. Don’t be discouragedif a wish is not granted.

TAURUS (April 20-May20): Set aside time to dealwith necessary business.You are more appealingthan usual to the oppositesex, but avoid the pursuit ofhot conquests. Your roman-tic ardor may be all bark andno bite tonight.

GEMINI (May 21-June20): Put the toys away andget back on track. Your spe-cial someone might have apowerful purpose in mindthat revolves around earn-ing potential. You have away with words; mentalalchemy pays off.

CANCEER (June 21-July22): Your financial fueltanks are filled. It is a goodday to initiate any projectthat needs long lastingdetermination and persist-ence. It may not be a goodtime for investing cash youcan’t afford to lose.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22):Passionate pushiness putspizzazz into a plan. Youmight steamroll past objec-tions to attain ambitions.Associate with people whoare enthused by joint suc-cess and have the knowl-edge to show you the way.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept.22): Put on a cape andbecome the Superman ofsuccess. Heightened ambi-tions and a desire to getahead financially will buildup incentive to get muchaccomplished. An organ-ized desk represents anorganized mind.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 222):Get up to speed. Much canbe accomplished if you turnthe heat up under a petproject. The fire of yourambitions might attractnew friends. Loved onesmight easily become jealousor suspicious.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov.21): Go gentle into that goodnight. Those who feel cor-nered or defensive may tell awhite lie or stretch thetruth. Don’t do battle withwords when it is such a goodday to follow through onbusiness strategies.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Run the rat racelike Secretariat. Apply pur-pose and willpower to seesomething importantthrough to the finish line.Those in close connectionmay snap the whip if youdon’t do your best.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19):: Faith the size of amustard seed can movemountains. At the sametime, those in your house-hold might be irritated byone of your obsessions thatseems to get in the way ofserenity and peace.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Keep your moneyin your pocket for anotherday or two. There is apotential for misunder-standings if contracts oragreements are on the table.Key players might not beready to wheel and deal.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March20): Discussion deepensdisparities. You might notbe on the same wavelengthwith a companion if busi-ness is on the agenda. Makegood use of friends andfamily for sensible feedbackand a reality check.

Rainy round

By Mike ChristensenTimes-News writer

The Dale Mowrer Invitationalgolf tournament was going tohappen Monday, rain or shine.

It was played in both.“Mostly rain,” said Kimberly

golfer Taylor Sievers, who shot a99 at Canyon Spring Golf Coursein Twin Falls where the girls halfof the tournament was held. Theboys played in equally inclementconditions at Jerome CountryClub.

The invite had already beenpushed back from its originalMarch 28 date due to weather.

“Trying to reschedule it againwas not an option, so we had togrit our teeth and get through it,”said Jerome coach Rick Burke.

“It had its good moments,”said Sievers. “We’d shed our lay-ers and once we got our layers off,it’d start pouring on us again. Itwas really wet.”

The golfers from Twin Fallsmanaged the elements best,winning the boys and girls teamtitles. Bruin golfer Kyle Miley

took boys medalist honors with a68 as Twin Falls shot a 290 teamscore, 22 strokes better than sec-ond-place Kimberly (312). ThreeBruins finished in the top five in-dividually, including Alec Mey-

erhoeffer with a 72.The Twin Falls girls were also

dominant, winning by 81 strokesover Kimberly, while Jenna Sharptook top individual honors with a77. Katherine Reed and SydneyLee shot 83s for the Bruins.

“They’re really good,” Sieverssaid of the Bruins.

“It’s the biggest thing intown,” said Raft River Ju-nior-Senior High SchoolPrincipal Ryan Bowman.“Everybody comes out andsupports the team.”

And Malta’s not alone inthat regard. You’ll find thesame thing in Carey, Castle-ford, Oakley and a bevy ofother small communities inthe Magic Valley whereClass 1A programs arefound.

“There’s not a whole lot todo in a small town, so peoplelike to come and watch thekids in the community,” saidCarey football coach LaneKirkland.“They take a lot ofpride in the kids. … People inCarey love to come andwatch a football game.”

Consider: Carey’s popu-lation is only about 530 peo-ple, yet the Panthers oftendraw 300 to 400 fans at agame. That means as muchas 75 percent of the town’spopulation is in the standson a Friday night. You won’tfind that kind of communitysupport at the Class 4A lev-el.

Even in Hagerman, whichis largely a retirement com-munity, you’ll find hundredsof fans gathered at the foot-ball field for the Pirates’ fivehome dates each season.

“It’s by far and away ourbiggest gate night in all oursports,” said Hagerman ath-letic director Kevin Cato.

The same is true inCastleford.“Friday nightfootball seems to be a bigshow,” said Laurie Howard,the Wolves’ athletic director.

CSI’s Smithanxious toplay closeto ChicagoBy Mike ChristensenTimes-News writer

College of Southern Idaho point guardDarius Smith said playing close to homewas one of the biggest factors in where he’dplay next season.

So when it came time to choose wherehe’d take his recruiting visits, he chose twoschools not far from his home in Chicago.Today,he’ll decide between them.

Smith, a 6-foot-2 sophomore, said he’llannounce this afternoon whether he’ssigning with Eastern Illinois or NorthernIllinois. Eastern Illinois is located inCharleston, which is about a three-hourdrive from Chicago. NIU is located inDeKalb,less than 90 minutes from Smith’shometown.

Smith did a little bit of everything for a33-4 CSI squad that won the NJCAA na-tional championship. He averaged 8.4points and 5.1 rebounds while leading theteam in assists (5.3) and steals (3.1).

He’ll be the fourth CSI player to join afour-year program. Pierre Jackson (Bay-lor), Kenny Buckner (Boise State) andMitch Bruneel (Utah State) have alreadysigned, with Bruneel inking his NCAALetter of Intent on Sunday. Sophomoreguard Issiah Grayson recently returnedfrom a visit to Bethune-Cookman Univer-sity in Daytona Beach, Fla., and is stillweighing his options.

CCaallllbbaacckkss:: Four of the 30 players thattook part in the CSI men’s open tryout onFriday have been invited back to play withthe team. The quartet includes formerMinico standout Anthony Garcia. The 5-foot-11 Garcia was a first-team all-GreatBasin Conference selection as a senior in2008.

Golden Eaglesoftball visitsTVCC todayBy David BashoreTimes-News writer

Fresh off a four-game emotional grindagainst North Idaho College, the Collegeof Southern Idaho softball team is gettinga little reprieve.

Sort of.The Golden Eagles take their 36-16

record out of Scenic West Athletic Con-ference play today when they travel toTreasure Valley Community College inOntario, Ore., for a 2 p.m. doubleheader.

It might not seem so on the surface, butthere’s a challenge for CSI to meet today.

The Chukars are 18-13 and tied forfourth place in their division, but theyhave two of the top home-run hitters inthe Northwest Athletic Association ofCommunity Colleges. So today’s chal-lenge is reminiscent of North Idaho,which played long-ball early and oftenover the weekend.

There’s also the fact that Treasure Val-ley beat CSI in fall play. Though that was-n’t reflected in any official records and haslittle to do with where the respectiveteams are at now, the Eagles will takewhatever form of motivation they can findas they try to shake off the poor Saturdayperformance against North Idaho.

There should, however, still be an op-portunity for some of the reserve playersto show what they can do.

“They came here and beat us right atthe end of fall season,”said CSI coach NickBaumert. “We’ll have the (starters) outthere and at some point we’ll maybe getsome other players in the game.”

CSI is off this weekend and finishes theregular season May 6-7 at Western Neva-da.

MINNEAPOLIS — After sevenweeks bitter back-and-forth,failed talks and growing uncer-tainty about the 2011 season, afederal judge has ordered an im-mediate end to the NFL lockout.

But there are many hurdles toclear and questions to answerbefore pro football is actuallyback on track.

U.S. District Judge SusanRichard Nelson gave the playersan early victory Monday in theirfight with the owners over howto divide the $9 billion business,granting their injunction requestto lift the lockout.

The fate of next season, how-ever, remained in limbo: TheNFL responded by fil-ing a notice of appealquestioning whetherNelson exceeded herjurisdiction, seekingrelief from the 8th U.S.Circuit Court of Ap-peals in St. Louis.Hours later, the leaguefiled a motion for an expeditedstay, meaning it wants Nelson toput her ruling on hold to let theappeals process play out.

What happens in the next fewdays is murky,too.

Will players burst through theweight room doors at team facili-ties and start studying their

playbooks? Or will they keep tothe mostly individual routines

they’ve developed sincethe start of the NFL’sfirst work stoppagesince 1987?

“I really think that it’sin the best interest ofthe players because thisis such a sensitive time

to stay back and let thedust settle,” said linebacker BenLeber, one of the 10 plaintiffs inthe still-pending antitrust law-suit filed against the league whenthe union broke up last month.“The way I understand it is we’rein a ‘Wild West’ right now. Foot-ball is back to business, but guesswhat? There’s no rules. There’s a

lot of positive to that, but there’salso a lot of negatives.”

DeMaurice Smith, the head ofthe NFLPA, said on ESPN2 thatthe organization — now a tradeassociation and not a union —planned to give players “guid-ance” about what to do. He saidplayers were eager to resumecourt-ordered mediation to re-solve the fight.

“My hope is really is thatthere’s somebody on the otherside who loves football as muchas our players and fans do,” hesaid.

Nelson’s ruling was a stern re-buke of the NFL’s case, hardly a

ASHLEY SMITH/Times-News

Hailey Hanks of Canyon Ridge High School plays in the Dale Mower

Invitational Monday in Twin Falls.

NEW YORK (AP) —Strange.Unique.Weird.

Those are the buzz wordsfor this week’s NFL draft, themost unusual selectionprocess since free agency be-gan 18 years ago. From play-ers to scouts to general man-agers to coaches, no one’squite sure how this year’sdraft will play out.

Unable to plug holes withfree agents because of anowners lockout in its seventhweek — an injunction grant-ed Monday to the playersseeking an end to the workstoppage isn’t likely to im-pact the draft — NFL teamscould look to pick rookieswho seem more prepared tohave an early impact. Thatgoes against the general phi-losophy of past drafts to grabthe highest-rated player,even if he doesn’t figure tocontribute early on.

Because many team needshave not been addressed bysigning veterans, some clubscould reach in the draft to fillthose holes.

“I think my feeling on thatis that it actually helps uswith the draft,” said Hall ofFame quarterback John El-way, who now runs footballoperations for the Broncos.“Now we can find the bestplayers that are on that draftboard that can come in andare really going to help us,and then to fill in with freeagency rather than havingfree agency and having to fillthrough the draft.

“If you’re filling throughthe draft, then you’re draftingwith need. This way we cango out and, in my opinion, getthe best players for the Den-ver Broncos and then fill withfree agency. It doesn’t put thepressure on us to draft withneed. We now have the timein free agency, if we havesome holes after the draft, toaddress those holes.”

So maybe there won’t bemuch reaching.

“I don’t want to reach forplayers just to fill a rosterspot,”Dolphins general man-ager Jeff Ireland said. “Youhave to be smart. Free agencywill open up again. I do knowthat.”

And maybe there will be.“That’s the challenge all of

the time and that’s a greatquestion from that point ofview because you fight that,”Bills scouting chief TomModrak said. “If you have anopen hole, you want to besure you don’t want to put aplayer in there just because itis (open). You want to still geta good player, a good talent,you’re not oblivious ... to

what that is.“Let’s say you feel you’re

deep at a particular position,you still don’t want to over-look people because at somepoint they become a goodvalue.”

This draft is filled withchallenges aside from theusual ones such as is thisquarterback (Blaine Gabbert)more NFL-ready than thatone (Cam Newton)? Is thisdangerous receiver (A.J.Green) more of a game-breaker than that one (JulioJones)?

For personnel men fromSeattle to Miami, draft-daytrading has an entirely newdynamic: No actual playerscan be swapped. Not justveterans, either; once a play-er is drafted, he can’t be dealtelsewhere on Thursday, Fri-day or Saturday — or untilthe lockout ends.

Draft slots can be traded aslong as they haven’t yet beenfilled.

And with the draft beingchallenged in the players’lawsuit against the league toget the lockout lifted, whoknows if 2012 picks are worthanything?

Many of the men doing theselecting admit they’ve hadmore time to do actualscouting or to dissect morevideo than ever. But they alsomust be careful it doesn’tlead to overanalysis.

“I have been able to watchmore players myself with freeagency not here,” Giants GMJerry Reese said about his re-cent video viewing. “Butwe’ve put in about the samepreparation time.”

Reese admits he isn’t look-ing for anything different in2011 with NFL business at astandstill than he was in hisprevious four drafts duringlabor peace.

“I wish we could get a lot ofguys who play right away,”Reese said, “but most ofthese guys are developmen-tal. You don’t get thoseRandy Moss-type guys.

“We don’t want to make itharder than it is. We’re notsplitting the atom in the draftroom.”

With no free agency,drafting is tougher

Grizzlies take charge against SpursMEMPHIS, Tenn. —

Whatever Memphis coachLionel Hollins said to histeam at halftime workedvery, very well.

The eighth-seeded Griz-zlies outscored San Antonio30-15 in the third quarter,turning a two-point half-time deficit into a 104-86rout Monday night of theSpurs for a commanding 3-1lead in their opening series.

“It was an incredible per-formance in the third andfourth quarter,” Hollinssaid. “We outscored them30-15 and from the secondquarter on, our defense justkept getting better and bet-ter.”

San Antonio led 50-48 athalftime, and Grizzliesguard O.J. Mayo said Hollinslit such a fire in his teamwith telling them exactlywhat he wanted them to dothat they couldn’t wait toget onto the court.

“We’re not playing toowell in so many words,”Mayo said. “That’s the cleanversion. And we need to getit together, and play with alot of energy and play likewe’re a desperate team. Allyear he’s been preachingthat the desperate teamusually wins, and we didn’tlook very desperate thatfirst half.”

The Grizzlies already hadmade franchise history bywinning their first playoffgame in Game 1 and addedtheir first playoff win athome. Now they are a gameaway from becoming thesecond eighth seed to knockoff a No. 1 seed since theNBA expanded to a best-of-seven series and join the2007 Golden State War-riors.

“I know a lot of people

didn’t expect us to be here,”Grizzlies guard Mike Conleysaid. “It’s not like we wereexpected to be up 3-1 at thispoint. In our locker room,we’re just playing it game bygame. We want to come intoSan Antonio looking to endit there. We’re focused andwant to be able to move ontothe next round.”

Conley had 15 points andseven assists. Darrell Arthuradded 14 points off thebench for Memphis. TonyAllen had 12, Randolph andMayo 11 apiece.

These are the same Spurs

that won 61 games in theregular season. Theyopened up very energetic,shooting well and even hadtheir first halftime lead inthis series.

They finished the gamewith their starters on thebench for the final 5:43 withSpurs coach GreggPopovich trying to restthem for Game 5 onWednesday night in SanAntonio. Now the Spurs willbe trying to avoid their sec-ond 4-1 opening series lossin three seasons.

“Obviously, the whole

team is very frustrated,”Spurs guard Tony Parkersaid. “I mean we go througha whole season and get thatfirst seed, and now we’rejust one game away to beeliminated so it’s most im-portant for us to focus onGame 5. That’s the most im-portant thing to get Game 5and try to get anotherchance to get a win here.”

MAVERICKS 93, TRAIL BLAZERS 82DALLAS — Holding an-

other double-digit lead go-ing into the fourth quarter,the Dallas Mavericks founda great way to protect it.They just stood andwatched the Portland TrailBlazers miss 10 straightshots.

Dirk Nowitzki scored 11 ofhis 25 points in the thirdquarter and the Dallas Mav-ericks avoided another latecollapse to beat the PortlandTrail Blazers 93-82 Mondaynight to take a 3-2 lead intheir first-round series.

Tyson Chandler had 14points and 20 rebounds —his most ever in a playoffgame — and Jason Kidd had14 assists to make sure Dal-las bounced back strongfrom blowing a 23-pointlead over the final 14 min-utes of Game 4.

Now the Mavericks havetwo days to rest up beforetrying to close out the seriesin Game 6 on Thursdaynight in Portland. It won’tbe easy as the Trail Blazershave won all four meetingsthere this season.

History is certainly onDallas’ side to pull out theseries. Of the previous 157series tied at 2, the Game 5winner has come out on top83 percent of the time.

NEW YORK — Former Texas Rangers president J.Thomas Schieffer was hired by Commissioner BudSelig on Monday to run the Los Angeles Dodgers, lessthan a week after Major League Baseball took overoperation of the franchise from owner FrankMcCourt.

Schieffer, younger brother of “Face the Nation”host Bob Schieffer, took over immediately. In seizingcontrol of the franchise, MLB told the Dodgers thatany expenditure of $5,000 or more would have to beapproved.

President George W.Bush appointed him ambassador to Australia in2001, a job held until he became ambassador toJapan from 2005-09. In business, Schieffer managedinvestments in oil and gas.

“Tom is a distinguished public servant who hasrepresented the nation with excellence and hasdemonstrated extraordinary leadership throughouthis career,” Selig said in a statement. “The manyyears that he spent managing the operations of asuccessful franchise will benefit the Dodgers andMajor League Baseball as a whole.”

Schieffer currently is senior counsel at Akin GumpStrauss Hauer & Feld, the same position held at thefirm by New York Yankees president Randy Levine.

“I love baseball and baseball called,” Schieffer saidin a statement issued by the firm. “I look forward tohelping Major League Baseball and the Los AngelesDodgers through this difficult period.”

Ex-Texas Rangers president hired by MLB to run Dodgers

Tuesday, April 26, 2011 Sports 3Times-News, Twin Falls, Idaho SPORTS

surprise given the court’shistory with the league andher pattern of questioningduring a hearing here threeweeks ago in St. Paul, Minn.

In a room packed withlawyers, players and leagueofficials, Nelson politely butpersistently questioned NFLlawyer David Boies about hisrepeated argument that sheshouldn’t have jurisdictionover a labor dispute with anunfair negotiation chargeagainst the players pendingwith the National Labor Re-lations Board.

In her ruling, Nelson re-jected that contention. Sherecognized the NFL PlayersAssociation’s decision to“de-unionize” as legitimatebecause it has “serious con-sequences” for the players.

Nelson even referencedher colleague, U.S. DistrictJudge David Doty, who hasfrequently ruled for theplayers in the past. Not onlydid she declare that playersare likely to suffer harm bythe lockout, a legal require-ment for granting the in-junction, Nelson wrote thatthey’re already feeling thehurt now.

She cited their short ca-reers, arguing that monetarydamages wouldn’t beenough relief.

What Nelson didn’t do,however, was tackle the issueof the antitrust lawsuit filedlast month when the unionbroke up. That, she wrote,“must wait another day.”

If the injunction is upheld,the NFL must resume busi-ness in some fashion.

COLUMBUS, Ohio — In asharply worded rebuke ofOhio State’s Jim Tressel, theNCAA on Monday accusedthe 10-year coach of with-holding information and ly-ing to keep Buckeyes playerson the field who had accept-ed improper benefits fromthe owner of a tattoo parlor.

In a “notice of allegations”sent to the school, the NCAAsaid Monday that the viola-tions relating to the coach areconsidered “potential majorviolations.”

Ohio State was not citedfor the most serious of insti-tutional breaches since Tres-sel hid information from hissuperiors for more than ninemonths. The university has90 days to respond to theruling body of college sports’request for information be-fore a scheduled date beforethe NCAA’s committee oninfractions on Aug. 12 in In-dianapolis.

In a 13-page indictment ofTressel’s behavior, the NCAAalleged that Tressel had“permitted football student-athletes to participate in in-tercollegiate athletics whileineligible.” It also said he“failed to deport himself ...(with) honesty and integrity”and said he was lying whenhe filled out a complianceform in September whichsaid he had no knowledge ofany NCAA violations by anyof his players.

Tressel appeared at anawards banquet outsideCleveland on Monday night,ducking in out of the rain toshake hands with ClevelandBrowns president MikeHolmgren before slipping in-to a side room. Tressel ig-nored reporters’ questionsabout the NCAA allegationson his way to the ballroom

before presenting a coachingaward named for his late fa-ther,Lee Tressel.

While making the presen-tation, Tressel said, “There isnothing more importantthan the team and nothingmore important than thekids.”

Before the program ended,Tressel left the dais and wasescorted out a side door andinto a waiting car.

Athletic director GeneSmith said he would have“no comments until the caseis resolved.” The universityissued a statement that theallegations were consistentwith what it had already self-reported to the NCAA onMarch 8.

NCAA PANEL MEMBERS ATTENDEDFIESTA BOWL-SPONSORED RETREAT

WASHINGTON — Nine ofthe 11 members of an NCAApanel that will help decidethe Fiesta Bowl’s fate attend-ed a bowl-sponsored retreatthat included free meals, re-sort rooms and golf outings.

The nine names all showedup on a 2008 “Fiesta Frolic”attendee list obtained byPlayoff PAC in a publicrecords request. The groupprovided the list to The As-sociated Press.

The NCAA PostseasonBowl Licensing Subcommit-tee is scheduled to meet withFiesta Bowl officials thisweek in New Orleans, butwon’t make a decision onwhether to revoke the bowl’slicense until later this spring.The Fiesta Bowl, played atUniversity of Phoenix Stadi-um in Glendale, Ariz., is oneof four bowls that rotatehosting the Bowl Champi-onship Series national titlegame.

“This is a jury of the bowl’s

former freeloaders,” chargedBryson Morgan, co-founderof Playoff PAC, which advo-cates switching to a playoffsystem to determine a na-tional college football cham-pion. Morgan questionedhow a decision by the panelmembers can be consideredcredible given their atten-dance at the Fiesta Frolic.

An internal report by thebowl last month detailedabout $45,000 in reimburse-ments to employees for po-litical donations, an apparentviolation of federal and statelaws. It also uncovered lavishand inappropriate spending,such as $33,000 for a PebbleBeach, Calif., birthday bashfor CEO and President JohnJunker, $13,000 for the wed-ding and honeymoon of anaide, and a $1,200 strip clubtab for Junker and two oth-ers.Junker has been fired.
