ven though she’s an American citizen who owns her own business, Dianne Victoria drove 2 1/2 hours to attend Wednesday’s Family Unity March in Boise. “I have no need to be here,” Victoria said as she held a sign that read “Keeping Families Together” at the Julia Davis Park immigration rally. Hundreds of advocates for immigration reform attended the rally and march to the Statehouse. Their message was to change immigration laws so families can stay intact. “It is so sad when a mother takes her kids to school and doesn’t know if she is going to see them again,” Victoria said about immigrants in the country without legal status. “People who have been here for 20 or 30 years, they’re not criminals.” The Rev. Karen Hunter of Grace Episcopal Church in Nampa used her faith to advocate for what she called justice for immigrants. “God means for all families to be together,” Hunter said. In prayer, Hunter said, “Lord Christ, help us tell the truth about how broken our (immigration) system is.” When one speaker asked for volunteers to share stories about family and immigration, Alejandra Mejia, 19, took the band shell stage and the microphone. The Boise State University political science major said, in English and Spanish, she lives in

NEW YORK — Violence, gore and gunplay were staples on primetime television even in the most sensitive period directly following the Newtown school shooting. A study of 392 prime-time scripted programs on broadcast networks shown during the month following Vice President Joe Biden’s January meeting with entertainment industry executives on the topic revealed that 193 had some incident of violence, according to the Parents Television Council. Some are cartoonish — quite literally, with Homer strangling Bart for mouthing off on “The Simpsons” — but there is plenty of gunplay, stabbings and beat-downs. Real life has continued to intrude on television entertainment as the months go by. NBC pulled an episode of its serial killer drama “Hannibal” after the Boston Marathon bombing, as did ABC with a “Castle” episode where a character stepped on a pressure-sensitive bomb. Some Newtown parents objected to a recent “Glee” episode that depicted a school shooting. “I think it is only going to get worse,” said Dr. Victor Strasburger, pediatrics professor at the University of New Mexico School of Medicine, who has written frequently on the topic of violence in the media. He said media executives are “not willing to own up to their public health responsibilities.” TV executives are reluctant to talk about violent content, and when pressed question any link between what they air on television and aggressive behavior in real life.

Jackson was the first of three woman killed on the greenbelt in a three-year period. “April 5, 1998, our lives were changed forever,” Jackson’s mother Evelyn Jackson said at a press conference Wednesday. “We would like to thank the Boise Police Department for their continuous service these past 15 years to solve the case

against our beloved Kay Lynn Jackson.” Zacharias is serving a life sentence in the Idaho Correctional Center south of Boise after being convicted and sentenced in 2007 of lewd conduct with a child under 16. At the time of the murder, a DNA code from the suspected killer’s semen was sent to law enforcement databases around the country. Police also had a knife believed to be the murder weapon and released a sketch of a suspect.

Southwest District Health conducts large-scale anthrax exposure exercise By JOHN FUNK

THE STRATEGIC NATIONAL STOCKPILE

jfunk@idahopress.com

© 2013 Idaho Press-Tribune

CALDWELL — What’s the best way for health authorities to make sure they’re ready for a real emergency? Stage a fake one. That’s what Southwest District Health did this week at the O’Connor Field House in Caldwell. The simulation’s scenario was dire: Crop dusters exposed hundreds of thousands across the state to anthrax. The mission: dispense two different types of anthrax medications as quickly and efficiently as possible. Meanwhile, six other health districts staged similar exercises throughout Idaho. The exercise took place over three days and covered every aspect of the process. First, a delivery from the Strategic National Stockpile — which can get emergency medication to anywhere in the country in 12 hours or less, Southwest District Health Program Manager Mitch Kiester said — arrived in Boise. When Caldwell’s share arrived at O’Connor, employees and volunteers had four hours to set up their Point of Dispensing, or POD. With their tables

In the event of a large-scale medical emergency, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has large reserves of medications ready for delivery anywhere in the country within 12 hours. Once they take delivery, state health officials will set up Points of Dispensing (PODs) to those who need them. Here’s what you need to know if disaster strikes and a POD is deployed in Canyon County: n All medications given at the POD will be free. n PODs will be centrally located and easy to find. n Everything you need to know — when to go, where to go and what to do in the meantime — will be announced via TV, radio, newspapers and local media websites. staffed and medical personnel standing by, they were ready to process patients. “Just like when we had the H1N1. That was a real live thing,” Kiester said. “We want to make sure we’re prepared, and take things that we learned from that and implement them into this.” And if they find any wrinkles that need ironing, now is the time to find out — not during a real emergency. That’s where students from Centennial Job Corps came in. Given role-playing cards with specific medical conditions, they faked everything from pregnancy to blindness as they went through the process. Students cycled through multiple times for two hours, drawing and acting

out different role-play card each time. In a real emergency, he said, they’d keep the pace up until they’ve dispensed to everyone in need. Jacob Swanson, a welding student at Centennial Job Corps who played the roll of a patient, said he thinks the community is in good hands if a real disaster struck. But it wasn’t quite what he expected — he thought they’d administer fake IV drugs instead of handing out empty pill bottles. His role-playing part was simple: His card contained no medical conditions. His only task: Ask where the restroom is. Later Wednesday afternoon, Kiester said the operation was a success, dispensing medication to 572 patients in the first hour.

Employees and volunteers with Southwest District Health walk through a simulated mass anthrax exposure scenario Wednesday afternoon at O’Connor Field House in Caldwell. The event was designed to prepare responders for safely dispensing mass quantities of medication in the event of an emergency.

PLAYING THE PART IPT reporter John Funk assumes the role of an anthrax patient at health exercise My favorite thing about my job is that every day is different, and almost every day is interesting. It’s given me access to many fascinating, unique experiences, but this was the first time I’d ever been treated for fake anthrax. I went through the whole process at the O’Connor Field House in Caldwell as Southwest District Health ran their simulation, picking up fake medication

not only for myself, but also for my fake pregnant 21-year-old wife (hey, I had to play the card they dealt me). In retrospect, I should have timed it with a stopwatch. In any case, the process was faster than I expected. Even after filling out paperwork on behalf of my fake wife and going the long way around to get her medication, it was no more than a handful of minutes from beginning to end. Hopefully we’ll never have to find out how the district handles a real emergency. But they certainly seem to handle fake ones quickly and efficiently.

Fire Continued from A1 The fire occurred in the 15000 block of Missouri Avenue. Lt.

Introducing “General Lee,” who has many similarities to his namesake... A bit of a rebel perhaps, but mainly it was his dignified demeanor through some rather difficult times that reminded us of this dog. CCAS’ General Lee also has a lot of physical similarities: tall in stature, ruggedly handsome and those deep clear soulful eyes. Our General Lee is easy to handle, he sits, shakes and loves to play fetch! This handsome Rhodesian Ridgeback mix is 3 years old and 77 pounds, and this true gentleman is ready to go! General Lee is located in kennel No. 1 in Large Dog Adoptions at the Canyon County Animal Shelter located at 5801 Graye Lane in Caldwell. The hours of operation are Monday through Saturday, 10 a.m. until 6 p.m. and Sunday from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. For more information on our other adoptable pets, please visit our website at www.canyoncountyshelter.org.

Schedules get shifted around when tragic events are in the news, but there’s no indication they have changed the types of programs being made. Policy debates have largely overlooked the issue, focusing instead on background checks for gun owners or bans on assault weapons. In the past, networks have disputed some of the PTC methodology. Some comedic moments are counted as violent episodes in PTC’s study when they could be questioned, like a play swordfight on “The Cleveland Show.” The PTC doesn’t detail the one violent incident it counted on Betty White’s “Off Their Rockers,” but it’s hard to imagine comparing it to the serial killer on “The Following.” “I’ve had a hard time finding these studies to be very useful to parents or anyone who is looking at this objectively,” said Jim Dyke, executive director of TV Watch, a Washington-based advocacy group that opposes government involvement in television programming. Still, it’s a sobering body count. The parents’ group said it found not only an increase in gore from other studies it has conducted over 18 years but a

greater specificity and darkness to the violence. “There has been no accountability, in my opinion, in terms of the degree and amount of violence,” said Tim Winter, the parents’ group president. Broadcast networks find themselves squeezed by cable networks that are able to be more explicit in what they show; Dyke, in fact, said it is unfair for a group like the PTC to study broadcast violence and not include what’s on cable. There’s also a feeling that they’re giving viewers what they want. The explosive popularity of AMC’s “The Walking Dead” among young viewers has clearly made broadcasters take notice. Talking about the gore involved in “The Following” shortly before it went on the air this winter, Fox entertainment chief Kevin Reilly said nightmarish scenarios are part of the entertainment menu that a broadcast network needs to provide to its viewers. When a network does this, it must be able to compete with smaller network on an intensity level, he said. Parents also have the ability to block out programming that they do not want to keep it from their children, the networks’ defenders said. A CBS representative declined comment on the PTC study, while ABC, NBC and Fox did not respond to a request for comment.

By JOHN MILLER The Associated Press

BOISE — Two small but unseasonably early fires burning in northern California’s wine country and another wind-whipped blaze farther south likely are a harbinger of a nasty summer fire season across the West. Officials with the National Interagency Fire Center in Boise said Wednesday in their first 2013 summer fire outlook that a dry winter and expected warming trend mean the potential for significant fire activity will be above normal on the West Coast, in the Southwest and portions of Idaho and Montana. “We’re looking at a combination of a low-moisture winter and a warming and drying pattern in the West that will increase the fire potential,” said Ed Delgado, predictive services manager. If that sounds familiar to the region’s residents, it should. In 2012, record-setting fires raged in New Mexico and Oregon, while destructive Colorado blazes torched hundreds of homes amid one of the state’s worst seasons in years. Just like last year, Colorado experienced some of its first 2013 wildfires in March. Outside the West, however, much of the U.S. is expected to experience normal fire conditions, with below-normal danger in the South where significant, long-duration rains saturated the landscape since Jan. 1, Delgado said.

Wind-fueled blaze scorches foothills east of Los Angeles BANNING, Calif. (AP) — A Southern California wildfire fueled by strong winds was raging through 2 1/2 square miles of Riverside County on Wednesday as wind-fanned fires scorched parts of wine country north of San Francisco. The fast-moving wildfire about 90 miles east of Los Angeles broke out just after noon and was moving westward through largely undeveloped foothills of the San Bernardino Mountains, but it was dangerously close to subdivisions to the south, in Banning. At least 425 firefighters were working to gain control of the fast-moving fire, which has destroyed one structure and is 30 percent

contained, said a spokeswoman for the county fire department. Six helicopters and six air tankers were making water drops. Authorities ordered the evacuation of the Highland Springs Mobile Home Park, where there are about 200 homes. Evacuations were also ordered for homes on two streets, but the number of people affected was not immediately known. Joe Kiener, 53, was on his lunch hour at the childhood home where he still lives when he saw smoke approaching. He and his dog were already pulling out when a deputy came up and told him to evacuate. Hours later, the house was destroyed.

Glitches derail school tests in 4 states

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — School districts across several states are rescheduling high-stakes tests that judge student proficiency and even determine teachers’ pay because of technical problems involving the test administrators’ computer systems. Thousands of students in Indiana, Kentucky, Minnesota and Oklahoma have been kicked offline while taking tests in recent weeks, postponing the testing schools planned for months and raising concerns about whether the glitches will affect scores. “There’s been pep rallies and spirit weeks all getting ready for this. It’s like showing up for the big game and then the basketball is deflated,” said Jason Zook, a fifthgrade teacher at Brown Intermediate Center in South Bend, Ind.

Demonstrators march down Las Vegas Boulevard during an immigration rally, Wednesday in Las Vegas. Demonstrators nationwide demanded an overhaul of immigration laws Wednesday in an annual, nationwide ritual that carried a special sense of urgency as Congress considers sweeping legislation that would bring many of the estimated 11 million people living in the U.S. illegally out of the shadows.

Attention: You can clean up your city’s stormwater Follow these steps to help reduce toxic materials that flow into drains and cause environmental mess

It can be very easy to instantly forget about household waste the second we dispose of it. Out of sight, out of mind, right? There was once a time we could afford to do that. That time has come and gone. A growing population and increased awareness of the damage we can do to our natural surroundings has made increased responsibility a matter of neces- EPA EDUCATION sity.

Stormwater runoff comes from the pavement surrounding your home, your driveway, your roof and your lawn. Once it runs off those surfaces, it doesn’t just vaporize. It has to go somewhere, and if it’s too toxic, it can cause a myriad of problems. Here are the steps you can take to be a responsible property owner or renter: n Don’t dump waste into storm drains. Put it in the trash. n Don’t let your yard clippings end up in the street. n Follow label instructions when disposing of household chemicals. n Clean up oil spills and fix leaking automobiles. Recycle used motor oil. n Use drip pans to catch engine oil and other pollutants when repairing cars n Sweep your driveways and discard the trash — don’t hose trash out into gutters. n Avoid over-watering your lawn. n Drain pools and spas into sewer outlet, not the street. These are things we should all do, whether we live in Caldwell or not. Let’s be proactive now instead of sorry later.

Boston bombings: more to the story? Why was Saudi ‘suspect’ let into U.S.? Theory of Relative Laziness on display Abdul Rahman Ali Alharbi, the 20-year-old “student” was acting suspiciously enough after the Boston bombing to be “detained” under guard at the hospital and named a person of interest in the April 15 attack. That same day, law enforcement searched his Boston-area apartment for seven hours, leaving with bags of evidence at around 2 a.m. April 16. On Tuesday afternoon, a sub-agency of the Department of Homeland Security created what is called an “event file” on Alharbi, calling for his visa to be revoked due to ties to terrorism. That same afternoon, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper would inform the Senate Intelligence Committee that Alharbi was now merely a “witness.” This exonerating designation pulled the public eye off of Alharbi, but only temporarily. On April 17, Steven Emerson refocused our attention on Alharbi when on Fox News’ “Hannity” show, the terrorism expert broke the news that Alharbi was scheduled to be deported on “national security grounds.” Since then, it has been a struggle to keep this sensational story in sight. The administration has categorically DIANA WEST dismissed it, and the media have followed suit. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano has done her overbearing best to discredit even elected officials with the temerity to ask questions about it. In an April 18 exchange with Rep. Jeff Duncan, R-S.C., Napolitano exploded when Duncan, a member of the House Homeland Security Committee, asked why the Saudi witness, apparently connected to terrorism by his deportation order, was slated to leave the country when the Boston investigation was just beginning? Calling the premise of the congressman’s question a “rumor,” Napolitano replied: “I’m not going to answer that question. It’s so full of misstatements and misapprehensions that it’s just not worthy of an answer.” Really? Maybe Her Secretary-ness was relying on alterations to the original Alharbi file that, The Blaze would later report, were made on the evening of April 17, “to disassociate him (Alharbi) from the initial charges.” But it was too late — and here’s where the story gets really juicy. Glenn Beck and The Blaze have now reproduced a copy of a page from the original April 16 file on Alharbi. In terse government lingo, this document makes clear that 1) Alharbi was a terrorism risk to the public; and 2) federal authorities who permitted him into the country were negligent. This story is no rumor. Let’s examine the document, one line at a time. It first tells us: “Subject is an exact match to NO FLY TPN# 1037506192.” In other words, Alharbi’s name and particulars show up on the no-fly list. “Derogatory information reviewed by (Watch Commander) Mayfield and (Chief Watch Commander) Maimbourg was found to be sufficient to request Visa revocation. NTC-P is requesting revocation of Foil No. e3139541.” A “foil” number is a visa number. “NTC-P” is the acronym for National Targeting Center — Passengers. This is a sub-agency of Homeland Security charged with providing intelligence in order to prevent terrorists and criminals from entering the country — or, in this case, ejecting them from it. “Subject is inadmissible to the U.S. under INA 212(a)(3) (B)(i)(II).” This red-hot “3B” designation specifically connects Alharbi to terrorism. “SAO was not completed prior to Visa issuance.” SAO stands for Security Advisory Opinion. The U.S. requires SAO background security checks on visa applicants suspected of being national security risks, and visa applicants who have links to state sponsors of terrorism (Cuba, Iran, Sudan, Syria) or “the list of 26” Islamic countries, including Saudi Arabia. Basically, we now know we have had an unwelcome Saudi on the loose, who, Beck would also report, the Alharbi “event file” also indicated to be “armed and dangerous.” Alharbi’s student visa, by the way, permitted him to study in Ohio. Meanwhile, he was living in Boston. Thanks to a reckless deal to boost Saudi enrollment in the U.S. (why?) between George W. Bush and Saudi Arabia in 2005, Alharbi is one of roughly 35,000 — an increase since 9/11 of more than 600 percent! How many other Saudi students are here despite SAOs that remain incomplete?

My working theory — you could call it a philosophy or a freestanding reason of how the world works — is what I call the Theory of Relative Laziness. It goes like this: Never attribute anything to conspiracy, coordination or planning when laziness could explain it. Call it Occam’s Armchair. While perusing the weirder corners of the Internet the other day I stumbled upon the Flat Earth Society’s website. They believe — and claim to have plenty of evidence — that the world is not a sphere, it’s flat. Why? According to their site it’s because the world looks flat. The first question in their FAQs is, “Is this a joke?” The answer: “No.” What about the moon landing and space travel, they’re asked? It’s been faked. What’s more lazy? Fifty years of an international conspiracy to commit massive (not to mention expensive) fraud to needlessly trick the world into believing our planet is shaped like a basketball? Or some dude looking at the ground beneath him and saying, “It looks flat.” TINA DUPUY I find it comforting to think how lazy the Boston Marathon bombers Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev were. Yes, they went through all the trouble of learning how to make a bomb, constructing it and walking to the finish line of the most prestigious street race in the world with moderately heavy backpacks. But that was basically it. No attempts to hide their identity. No going through all the trouble of writing a manifesto to explain or indicate the goal of causing the senseless deaths of onlookers. Not even a declarative sentence, actually. No saving up money before the event so they could skip town. No trying to get rid of evidence. No attempts to change their identity. No backup plan. No thoughts on maybe not terrorizing your hometown where you’ve gone to school and people recognize you because your picture is in their yearbook. There are reports the duo were preparing to carry out other attacks; the pitiful half-hearted assertion of slacker terrorists everywhere. Yes they were cruel, callous and malicious — but thankfully they were also lazy. This event has inspired a menagerie of conspiracy theories that I put into two categories: the false-reportsare-true theories and our-pre-existing-assumptions-areeven-more-valid theories. There are hypotheses that incorporate since-corrected errors that ended up in the news media: A Saudi national, a “dark-skinned man,” or anything mentioned in the Murdoch-owned New York Post. The idea is that these were the truth and the corrections are the cover-ups. According to my Theory of Relative Laziness, when you have journalists not doing their due diligence coupled with a denial of new information (meaning you get to stop reading and think you’re right), both can be attributed to simple laziness. Within seconds of the bombs going off a popular conspiracy sham artist (I’m not naming) tweeted out something to the effect of “The government did this, the government always does this so they can take away our civil rights.” (Civil rights mean your right to stockpile weapons and ammunition. A “right” that’s not being threatened even in the wake of people with arsenals making threats.) No investigation, no pausing for the victims, no evidence pondered, he knew — the government did it. Conservatives say government can’t do anything well. Liberals say government is flawed but it’s the best we’ve got. Nowhere on the political spectrum or in any evidencebased reality is the U.S. government hyper-competent and perfect at accomplishing its objectives. Never. But it’s the laziest punditry there is: Everything went off as planned, everyone is in on it and I’m the only one brave enough to say anything. It’s apparently also pretty lucrative. Little overhead, low production costs, no need to employ a fact-checker. A lot of the world can be explained by the simple fact that someone isn’t putting in a full effort and isn’t interested in doing their job. See every column I’ve ever written about Congress.

FBI: 3 removed backpack from Boston suspect’s room By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BOSTON — Three college friends of Boston Marathon bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev were arrested and accused Wednesday of trying to protect him by going into his dorm room and getting rid of a backpack filled with hollowed-out fireworks three days after the deadly attack. The three 19-year-olds were not accused of any role in the bombing. But in a footnote in the court papers outlining the charges, the FBI said that about a month before the tragedy, Tsarnaev told two of them that he knew how to make a bomb. Azamat Tazhayakov and Dias Kadyrbayev, both of whom came to the U.S. from Kazakhstan, were charged with conspiring to obstruct justice by concealing and destroying evidence.

5-year-old shoots 2-year-old sister in Kentucky By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BURKESVILLE, Ky — In southern Kentucky, where children get their first guns even before they start first grade, Stephanie Sparks paid little attention as her 5-year-old son, Kristian, played with the rifle he was given last year. Then, as she stepped onto the front porch while cleaning the kitchen, “she heard the gun go off,” a coroner said. In a horrific accident Tuesday that shocked a rural area far removed from the national debate over gun control, the boy had killed his 2-year-old sister, Caroline, with a single shot to the chest.

“Down in Kentucky where we’re from, you know, guns are passed down from generation to generation,” Cumberland County Coroner Gary White said. “You start at a young age with guns for hunting and everything.” What is more unusual than a child having a gun, he said, is “that a kid would get shot with it.” In this case, the rifle was made by a company that sells guns specifically for children — “My first rifle” is the slogan — in colors ranging from plain brown to hot pink to orange to royal blue to multicolor swirls.

Syria’s Assad in rare visit as rockets hit capital

AMMAN, Jordan (AP) — Syrian President Bashar Assad made a rare public appearance at a Damascus power station on Wednesday, while two bombs exploded near the city center, killing one and wounding over two dozen people, Syria’s state news agency reported. Footage of the visit broadcast on state television showed Assad chatting casually with a group of employees, two days after his prime minister narrowly escaped assassination by an explosion and a day after another major bombing in the capital took the lives of at least 14. SANA said a 10-year-old boy was killed and 28 people wounded, some seriously, in Wednesday’s attack, when bombs went off in Khaled Bin Walid street and the nearby Bab Mesalla square. It said the bombs were planted by “terrorists,” a term the government uses to describe rebels fighting to topple the Syrian leader.

Van at Gatwick Airport checked by bomb squad

LONDON (AP) — A suspicious van parked at London’s Gatwick Airport caused minor disruptions Wednesday, but police said bomb disposal experts found no threat after searching the vehicle. The airport’s north terminal short stay parking lot was cordoned off for several hours as police carried out small controlled explosions to gain entry into the Renault van. No flights had been affected at the airport, which is on the outskirts of the capital, but a shuttle train that connects its two terminals had been shut down temporarily. Some passengers’ journeys were also delayed because of the disruptions. Police said they were looking for two men who parked the van, then disappeared.

Police to track dementia patients with GPS in U.K. Six dead in crash of LONDON (AP) — A British police force is hoping to save time and money by giving a Mexican prosecutors’ plane few dementia patients GPS tracking devices, a technique already used by health and welfare agencies but condemned by some campaigners as “barbaric.” Last week, Sussex police in southeast England announced a plan to buy GPS devices for a few people with dementia who are at high risk of getting lost. The police couldn’t say how many devices would be bought but have invested $935 into the program. Each tracking device costs about $43 a month, which will be paid by the family of the dementia patient. The device can be worn around the neck or attached to a keychain. It sends the person’s GPS location to a website every four minutes. The information can also be accessed by the patient’s family.

Javier Avalos told reporters on Wednesday that the body of 36-year-old Ramon Castillo was found overnight in a house in the highlands city of Cuzco. He says he can’t yet say whether it was suicide.

MEXICO CITY (AP) — Mexican authorities say six employees of the Attorney General’s Office have been killed in the crash of a small plane, and a newspaper says an auditors’ report indicated months ago that the aircraft fleet for prosecutors was in bad shape. Attorney General Jesus Murillo Karam says the cause of the crash Tuesday in northern Zacatecas state is being investigated. The officials had flown to Zacatecas to serve an arrest warrant on members of the Zetas drug cartel. Murillo Karam says their small, twin-engine propeller plane was about 28 years old. The newspaper El Universal said Wednesday that an auditors’ report issued in October found serious problems with maintenance and airworthiness in the prosecutors’ fleet of aircraft.

Peace Corps volunteer dies in nation of Ghana

ACCRA, Ghana (AP) — A spokeswoman for the United States Embassy in Accra confirms that a Peace Corps volunteer has died in Ghana. Zainab Mahama declined to provide details.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Scientists revealed Wednesday that they have found the first solid archaeological evidence that some of the earliest American colonists at Jamestown, Va., survived harsh conditions by turning to cannibalism. For years, there have been tales of people in the first permanent English settlement in America eating dogs, cats, rats, mice, snakes and shoe leather to stave off starvation. There were also written accounts of settlers eating their own dead, but archaeologists had been skeptical of those stories. But now, the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History and archaeologists from Jamestown are an-

nouncing the discovery of the bones of a 14-year-old girl that show clear signs that she was cannibalized. Evidence indicates clumsy chops to the body and head of the girl, who appears to have already been dead at the time. Smithsonian forensic anthropologist Douglas Owsley said the human remains date back to a deadly winter known as the “starving time” in Jamestown from 1609 to 1610. Hundreds died during the period. Scientists have said the settlers likely arrived during the worst drought in 800 years, bringing severe food shortages for the 6,000 people who lived at Jamestown between 1607 and 1625.

CALDWELL — They endured their share of ups and downs throughout the season, including a deflating stretch that featured five losses in seven games. The College of Idaho seniors stared at the possibility of never making a postseason. Their backs were firmly pressed against the wall as six games remained, as the final at-bats of their careers hung in the balance. But the Coyotes’ camaraderie and character overcame the adverse situation, as demonstrated by a six-game win streak to close the season to clinch a berth in today’s Cascade Conference playoffs, the program’s first appearance since 2009. “We’re finally playing our best softball at the right time,” said C of I eight-year coach Al Mendiola, whose fourth-seeded Coyotes (31-21) face top-seeded Corban (39-11) at 11:30 a.m. today in Salem, Ore. “They’re glad to be able to say that, during their stay here, that they were able to play in the postseason.” How long it lasts is anyone’s guess, but the Coyotes are clicking on all proverbial cylinders, winning 11 of their past 12 games to earn a 30-win season for the third time in program history. Mendiola sees similarities to his 2008 squad, which won nine of its past 10 regular-season games and the Cascade Conference Tournament, thus qualifying for the NAIA Softball National Championships. “I see that in this team,” Mendiola said. “We have a second life, and these girls are going to definitely take advantage of that.” That second life was resuscitated by junior ace Nickayla Skinner, who was 4-0 with a 1.93 ERA and 28 strikeouts to earn a second straight pitcher of the week award by the Cascade Conference. And it was helped by junior Paige Gabiola and freshman Katie Rowe, whose heroics launched the Coyotes past Southern Oregon in the conference standings to secure the final spot in the double-elimination tournament.

LOCALLY: The big game that Boise State coach Leon Rice hinted at is finally official. The Boise State men’s basketball team will meet Kentucky and coach John Calipari on Dec. 10 at Rupp Arena in Lexington. The schools announced the completed deal Wednesday afternoon. “We want to continue to build on what coach Rice and his staff have accomplished in their time at Boise State,” said Boise State athletics director Mark Coyle said. “Scheduling marquee games that will draw interest nationally is part of that process.” Kentucky figures to be ranked No. 1 in the nation heading into the 2013-2014 season with the addition of one of the top recruiting classes in the history of college basketball. The Wildcats signed five of the top nine players in the country per ESPN.com and are in the running for overall No. 1 prospect Andrew Wiggins. Rice indicated recently that his squad would play a tough road nonconference game this season, similar to games last season at Michigan State and Creighton. Boise State lost 74-70 at Michigan State but won 8370 at then-No. 11 Creighton, the Broncos’ highest win ever over a ranked opponent. The win was critical in helping the Broncos earn an at-large selection to the NCAA Tournament. The non-conference schedule is slowly starting to take shape. They will host Seattle, Utah and UT-Arlington in return games and will travel to play at New Orleans. They are also participating in the Diamond Head Classic in Hawaii Dec. 22-25. Teams committed include Hawaii, George Mason, Iowa State, Saint Mary’s, Oregon State and South Carolina. The rest of the Broncos’ non-conference schedule is expected to be released this summer.

DAVID EGER The television viewer who reported the illegal drop Tiger Woods took during the Masters was more than just a golf fan. Sports Illustrated reports it was David Eger, a rules expert who has worked for the USGA and the PGA Tour. Eger says he was watching the Masters when he replayed the 15th hole to see how Woods made bogey. Woods hit the pin with his third shot and it caromed back into the water. He dropped from the same area, hit to 4 feet and made bogey. Eger told the magazine he noticed a divot, and that Woods took his drop behind it.

SOCCER: Atticus Lane-Dupre, 8, shoots for the winning goal as his team, the Green Machine, plays against the MLS Portland Timbers soccer team Wednesday in Portland, Ore. The Timbers and Make-A-Wish Oregon treated Atticus’ team, the Green Machine, to a game at Jeld-Wen Field. More than 3,000 fans came out to lend their support. The Green Machine beat the Timbers, 10-9. Atticus scored the winning goal off a corner kick in the final minute. Portland coach Caleb Porter, leading the Green Machine for the occasion, lifted Atticus in celebration. “Just how we drew it up,” Porter laughed. Atticus’ response afterward was typical of a starstruck 8-year old: “I had lots of fun.” Boise State went 21-11 last season and made its first at-large appearance in the NCAA Tournament in school history. They are ranked in the top-25 in several early preseason projects for next season including No. 25 by CBSSports.com. BETTLES QUALIFIES FOR NCAA SINGLES DRAW: Boise State junior Andy Bettles will compete as one of 64 singles players in the NCAA Men’s Tennis Championships. Both the men’s singles and doubles tournaments will be played at the Kahn Outdoor Tennis Complex in Champagne, Ill., May 16-27. Bettles is the 11th player in Boise State history to be selected to compete in the singles tournament. The native of Somerset, England went 29-9 this season with a 22-6 dual-match record. Bettles is 7-6 this season against opponents in the ITA top 125. Damian Hume competed

in the tournament last season, falling in the first round.

Bayern Munich-Dortmund in all-German Champs final SOCCER: Bayern Munich advanced to the Champions League final for the third time in four years, routing Barcelona on 7-0 aggregate and advancing to the first all-German final against Borussia Dortmund. Coasting from a 4-0 win in the first leg at home last week, Bayern beat Barcelona 3-0 Wednesday night in the second leg on goals by Arjen Robben in the 49th minute and Thomas Mueller in the 76th around Gerard Pique’s own goal in the 72nd. The final at London’s Wembley Stadium on May 25 will be just the fourth singlenation championship match in Europe. Real Madrid beat Valencia in 2000, AC Milan defeated Juventus in 2003 and Manchester United edged Chelsea in 2008.

TOM RICKETTS The owner of the Chicago Cubs for the first time publicly threatened to move the team out of Wrigley Field if his plans for a big, new video screen are blocked, saying Wednesday he needs new advertising revenue to help bankroll a $500 million renovation of the storied ballpark. Cubs Chairman Tom Ricketts until now had said nothing as dire, despite months of contentious negotiations over how to keep everyone happy in sprucing up the 99-year-old stadium in the heart of Wrigleyville on Chicago’s North Side.

DAMIAN LILLARD Portland Trail Blazers point guard Damian Lillard has been unanimously chosen the NBA’s Rookie of the Year. Lillard, the sixth overall pick in last June’s draft out of Weber State, led all rookies with a 19-point scoring average. He also averaged 6.1 assists and 3.1 rebounds, playing in all 82 games this season. Lillard broke Stephen Curry’s rookie record for 3-pointers in a season, finishing with 185. He is the fourth player in league history to win the Eddie Gottlieb Trophy unanimously, joining Blake Griffin in 2011, David Robinson in 1990 and Ralph Sampson in 1984. — AP

Celtics, Rockets stay alive to force sixth games in series NBA ROUNDUP THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Kevin Garnett had 16 points and 18 rebounds and the Boston Celtics stayed alive in the NBA playoffs, cutting the New York Knicks’ lead to 3-2 with a 92-86 victory Wednesday night. The Celtics will host Game 6 on Friday night, needing two victories to become the first NBA team to overcome a 3-0 deficit to win a series.

Brandon Bass added 17 points, steadying Boston as it shook off an 11-0 deficit and pulled away in the second half to stop the Knicks again from their first playoff series victory since 2000. J.R. Smith, back from his onegame suspension for elbowing Jason Terry with the Knicks way ahead late in Game 3, missed his first 10 shots and finished 3 of 14 for 14 points. Terry also scored 17 off the bench.

PACERS 106, HAWKS 83: David West scored 24 points and Paul George had 21 points and 10 rebounds to lead Indiana to a 3-2 series lead. The Pacers have all won three home games in the best-of-seven series and are 5-0 at home this season against the Hawks. They’ll go to Atlanta on Friday with a chance to clinch the best-ofseven series. But the Hawks have won 13 straight at home against the Pacers, including both games

in this series. ROCKETS 107, THUNDER 100: James Harden scored 31 points and sank seven 3-pointers while fighting through flu-like symptoms, and the Houston Rockets beat the Oklahoma City Thunder 107-100 Wednesday night to pull within 3-2 in their first-round playoff series. Harden made the first seven 3s he tried and Houston led by as many as 16 before fending off a rally that Oklahoma City helped

stymie with its own strategy. The Thunder, apparently doubting they could overcome an eight-point lead on their home court without Russell Westbrook, resorted to intentionally fouling Omer Asik — a 54 percent career foul shooter — with 5:33 to play. Asik went 8 for 12 from the line, extending Houston’s lead to 10192 with 3:53 remaining before Oklahoma City gave up the tactic. Kevin Durant finished with 36 points for Oklahoma City. C M Y K

BK finishes 4A SIC perfect PREP ROUNDUP

BISHOP KELLY 13, COLUMBIA 3 (5 INN.): Bishop Kelly finished the regular season with a 20-2 overall record and 16-0 mark in 4A Southern Idaho Conference play. The Knights will host Nampa in the first round of the 4A District III tournament at 5 p.m. Monday. Andy Lawrence and Garrett Lodge combined for six of Bishop Kelly’s 15 hits and Lodge knocked in six of the Knights’ 13 runs. Skyler Penrod had two hits, including a double, and drove in two runs and Zach Penrod knocked in one run for Columbia (13-9, 9-7 4A SIC), which begins 4A District III tournament play as the No. 3 seed. SKYVIEW 4, COLUMBIA 0: Toby Anderson and Nate Emerson went toe-to-

toe on the mound and at the plate in Tuesday’s 4A SIC game at Columbia High. Emerson struck out three, walked none and allowed two earned runs — on a double by Anderson — and collected both of the Wildcats’ hits in the game. Anderson struck out six, walked two in seven shutout innings. Daniel Slemmer had three of Skyview’s five hits in the win. NAMPA CHRISTIAN 17, NYSSA (ORE.) 1 (5 INN.): Nate Rex went 4-for-4 with three RBIs and Jake Tiersma had two triples and drove in two runs to lead Nampa Christian past visiting Nyssa (Ore.) in nonconference play Wednesday. Casey Ekmark and Trevor Lee both had doubles and an RBI for the Trojans (15-5), who begin 2A District

Middleton trailed 7-1 before scoring seven runs in the top of the fifth to take a 8-6 lead. But Mountain Home responded with three in the fifth and one in the sixth and held on after Middleton added one in the top of the seventh. The teams combined for seven extra-base hits and seven errors. Jesse Cobos went 2-for-3 with two doubles and three RBIs to lead Mountain Home.

Yotes Continued from B1 Gabiola started the six-game win streak with a two-run homer in the eighth inning against Eastern Oregon. Rowe completed the improbable week with a clutch hit and instinctive base running during the Coyotes’ final at-bat of the regular season. Trailing 3-1 in the sixth inning, Rowe belted a two-RBI triple into the gap, then alertly advanced home to score the go-ahead run on an error. “There’s things you can’t teach,” Mendiola said. The sweep of Concordia gives the Coyotes one loss in the past 12 games. That loss came against today’s opponent, Corban (39-11), a team that’s ranked No. 8 in the latest NAIA Top 25 poll. The Warriors are led by Stephanie Nippert, whose .431 average, 69 RBIs, 25 home runs and 21 steals lead the league, the latter category shared with teammate Brittany Chestnut. But the Coyotes feature

a talented bunch, as well. There’s sophomore Alexis Macias, who hits a team-leading .391, and senior Molly Mills, a leadoff batter whose 61 hits are a single-season program record. And there’s Skinner, whose 594 career strikeouts and 18 shutouts are the most in C of I softball history. She’s the second pitcher to win 20 games in a single season and owns nine Cascade Conference pitcher of the week awards. “She’s an intricate part of our success,” Mendiola said. Skinner, who hits 61 mph on the radar gun, has the ability to establish pinpoint location with her best pitch, the rise ball. She also has stellar defense behind her, which provides another rising characteristic: Confidence. “I know we can go all the way, easily,” Skinner said. “We’ve played other NAIA teams from around the country, and we’ve showed them what we’re made of in the preseason. “We’re gonna go all the way.”

Continued from B1 Lingarde (9-4) threw 90 fewer pitches than her starting opposition, Mariah O’Very, by getting ahead in the count and forcing numerous ground balls to the defense behind her. Lingarde’s pace and control allowed Skyview’s offense to jump out to an early lead in the third inning. Having support on the offensive end alleviates pressure for the pitcher, according to Lingarde. “I did really well against (Columbia) the first time we played them, so I was really relaxed this game,” Lingarde said. “(Scoring that many runs) takes a lot of pressure off.” Both teams scored two runs in their opening trips to the plate, but only Skyview was able to add to its total moving forward. With the bases loaded in the second inning

NHL ROUNDUP

Penguins blank Islanders, 5-0 THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PITTSBURGH — Sidney Crosby’s broken jaw can take its time healing. The way his teammates are playing, there is no need for the Pittsburgh Penguins star to rush back. Pascal Dupuis scored twice, Marc-Andre Fleury made 26 saves, and the top-seeded Penguins opened the playoffs with a 5-0 romp over the New York Islanders on Wednesday night. “It’s one win,” Dupuis said. “We definitely feel good about it but we’ve just got to put this one behind us and get ready to work for the next one. They’ll definitely look at tape and come out harder, that’s for sure.” The Islanders will have to if they have any hope of making the series competitive. Making its first playoff appearance since 2007, New York fell behind less than 5 minutes in and never recovered. “I thought some guys worked hard and played a good game,” Islanders coach Jack Capuano said. “Again, with our club we need all 20 guys going, and we didn’t have all 20.” That isn’t an issue for the staggeringly deep Penguins. Rookie Beau Bennett, enforcer Tanner Glass and defenseman Kris Letang also scored for Pittsburgh, which had no trouble against the upstart Islanders even with Crosby relegated to cheerleader. Fleury earned his sixth career playoff shutout while playing behind a defense that appears to have learned a few lessons from last spring’s embarrassing openinground loss to Philadelphia.

Kennel had a two-run single, which stretched Skyview’s lead to five runs. Back-to-back three-run innings in the first and second solidified the victory early for the Hawks. Being one of eight seniors who played on the state championship team last season, Lingarde knows how important a late-season push is for a title contender. Even though Skyview has jockeyed with Bishop Kelly and four other teams atop the district standings throughout the season, Skyview believes it can beat any team during the district tournament. “It was a little shaky at the beginning, and we hadn’t played much with the new team, but now we’re confident,” Lingarde said. Skyview’s rout of Columbia on Wednesday shows how drastically a district can change in one year. The only consistencies are the Hawks’ state tournament plans. The 4A District III tournament begins on Monday at Kuna High. The

state tournament, which takes place from May 17-18, will be held at Post Falls High.

The Flyers shredded Pittsburgh for 30 goals in six chaotic games. The Penguins have emphasized being responsible on defense all season, knowing their wealth of offensive talent will come to life when needed. Pittsburgh wasted no time against the Islanders, beating Evgeni Nabokov four times in the game’s first 22 minutes, including goals by Letang and Dupuis 32 seconds apart early in the second period. That sent Nabokov to the bench after he stopped just 11 shots. Kevin Poulin came on in relief and surrendered a soft goal to Glass. Capuano said it is too early to decide who will start in goal for Game 2 on Friday night. Whoever it is will need help from the guys in front of him. The Islanders haven’t won a playoff series in 20 years, and the drought will extend to 21 quickly if they can’t keep Pittsburgh’s skaters in check. “When you make it easy on them, they’re going to light you up,” New York forward Matt Martin said. “For most of the game we made it pretty easy on them, and if you do that they’re just going to run up the score on you.” Pittsburgh rolled to the top of the East even though Crosby missed the final quarter of the season. The Penguins have been bolstered by the arrival of trade deadline acquisitions Jarome Iginla, Brenden Morrow, Jussi Jokinen and Doug Murray. All four players are searching for their first Cup championship, and all four made an immediate impact in the series opener. Iginla and Jokinen both had two assists, and Morrow and Murray helped bottle up New York captain John Tavaraes. The Islanders star failed to find much room to maneuver and didn’t muster a shot on goal all night. “”We’re going to need to (forget it quickly),” Tavares said. “These series are long, but they can be real quick, too.”

BRUINS 4, MAPLE LEAFS 1

OTHER SOFTBALL GAMES BISHOP KELLY 16, NAMPA 0 (5 INN.): One day after belting two homers, BK freshman Gabby Harrington went 4-for-4 with a double, home run and three RBIs to help the Knights finish the season as the 4A SIC’s No. 1 seed. Sheridan Meyer had two doubles and two RBIs, and Delaney Atkins had a triple and two RBIs for BK (14-5 overall, 12-4 4A SIC). Taylor Falkner earned the win in the circle to improve to 11-3. EMMETT 9, CALDWELL 6: Emmett’s Sarah Adkinson struck out five batters and walked none to earn the win in the circle. She gave up three hits and one earned run in four innings. Emmett’s Mallorie Jordan and Adkinson both delivered an RBI. Caldwell’s Maddy Griswold, Vanessa Valdez and Braxton Ramos had an RBI apiece.

BOSTON — Claude Julien could feel his Boston Bruins improving even though the results didn’t show it. They did once the playoffs began. Nathan Horton scored the goahead goal late in the first period, and the postseason-tested Bruins used a revived offense to beat the inexperienced Toronto Maple Leafs 4-1 in their series opener Wednesday night. “There were some signs probably the last four games or so (that) we seemed to be turning the corner,” Coach Julien said. “We were playing better. We weren’t getting rewarded with wins.” The Bruins had lost seven of their previous nine games, never scoring more than three goals. They played six games in the last nine days of the regular season. Two games in the final week were postponed because of the Boston Marathon bombings and the search for suspects. So after two days off and a new series starting, Julien believed his players’ minds and bodies were refreshed. “It’s been draining for players to deal with that stuff,” Julien said. “We’re all sentimental to what happened to this city. It was just a matter of turning the page and getting a fresh start from the regular season. “I think, mentally, that was a big difference. I think that’s why you saw a big change in our team. We’ve been through this as a group.” The Bruins still have 17 players who were on the team that won the Stanley Cup in 2011. The Maple Leafs are in the playoffs for the first time since 2004 and have 15 players making their postseason debuts. “It’s a new experience for a lot of guys,” Toronto forward James van Riemsdyk said. “That’s a telltale sign how different the level is and how things can come back to bite you.”

Derby Continued from B1 As for the birdie — the highlight of an otherwise forgettable round — he said, “That was like winning the Derby on the golf course. It was a par-3 and I just knocked it right in the middle.” Orb was made the slight 7-2 favorite over undefeated Verrazano, one of a record-tying five horses for trainer Todd Pletcher. Trained by Shug McGaughey, Orb drew the No. 16 post in a full field of 20 horses. Four horses have won from there, most recently Animal Kingdom two years ago. McGaughey is in racing’s Hall of Fame, but the 62-year-old trainer has yet to win the Derby in six previous tries. “I think where from he is, we’ll be solid,” McGaughey said. “Kind of hold our position, maybe try to creep in a little bit more around the first turn, and he can kind of watch what’s going on down on the inside.” Orb comes into the Derby on a four-race winning streak. He won the Florida Derby in his last start. Pletcher was pleased about where his posse landed in the starting gate. Wood Memorial winner Verrazano drew the No. 14 post and was the 4-1 second choice. “We got everything we wanted,” Pletcher said. “No complaints whatsoever.” There were four spots left in the gate — including the dreaded No. 1 and No. 2 — before Verrazano’s name was called. Being in the No. 14 hole gives the colt the benefit of extra room because of the gap between his spot and No. 15, which is the start of the auxiliary gate. Another Pletcher horse, Revolutionary, was the fourth choice at 10-1 on the morning line set by Churchill Downs oddsmaker Mike Battaglia. The colt is ridden by Calvin Borel, a three-time

Les Bois Continued from B1 “It’s good to be home,” Conklin said. “I’ve lived in this area my whole life, born and raised. I started my career here and this was a great opening night for me hearing the fans that have seen me through my career. It was great. “I’ve won a million dollar race and I’ve won 500 dollar races and a win is a win for me. I love to win. It’s not about the money anymore. It’s the win.” Auth said she comes to Les Bois Park several days

Derby winner famous for riding the rail. Revolutionary drew the No. 3 post, leaving Borel close to his favorite route on the track. “Very happy,” Pletcher said. “I think Calvin will be looking to go inside as soon as he could, so starting off inside was a good thing. Super Saver started from four.” Pletcher won his only Derby in 2010 with Super Saver under a rail-hugging ride by Borel. Normandy Invasion is the fifth choice at 12-1. The other 15 horses are all 15-1 or higher, including Pletcher’s trio of Overanalyze (15-1), Palace Malice (20-1), and Charming Kitten (20-1). Spiral Stakes winner Black Onyx drew the No. 1 post and is one of five 50-1 shots in the field. That spot has produced 12 Derby winners, tying with the No. 5 hole for the most successful post positions. “The 1 post might not be ideal but we’re going to make the best of what we can do with it,” trainer Kelly Breen said. “After Saturday we’re hoping to make it the most winningest post position in Kentucky Derby history.” Oxbow and Will Take Charge will be the record 46th and 47th Derby starters for Hall of Fame trainer D. Wayne Lukas, a four-time Derby winner. Both are long shots — Will Take Charge at 20-1 and Oxbow at 30-1. “The four I won it with I can’t remember the post positions, so it must not be too important,” said Lukas, who could become the oldest winning trainer in Derby history at 77. The 21st horse on the points list is Fear the Kitten, an also eligible who would need a defection before 9 a.m. Friday, when Derby wagering opens, to get into the 1 ¼-mile race. If all 20 horses start, the total purse would be $2,199,800. The winner earns $1,439,800. Post time is 4:24 p.m.

a week to bet on the simulcast races at other tracks. Asked if she usually came out on top, Auth said with a grin, “I’m pretty good. I make money on it.” A crowd of 4,032 strolled through the gates for opening night and they are expecting an even bigger crowd for Saturday’s Kentucky Derby celebration. Post time is 2 p.m. with contests and drink specials planned all afternoon. They will have five live races before pausing to watch the Derby, which can be bet on at Les Bois Park. They will have five more live races after the Derby.

OUTDOORS

Fishing with Dennis By DENNIS UDLINEK For the Idaho Press-Tribune

PICK OF THE WEEK: Earlier this week was more like March all over again. Hopefully this new warm spell will be lasting, and we can finally get on with fishing, farming and frolicking in the sunshine for more than a day or two. I guess it really doesn’t matter because fish everywhere are biting so you can get anything you want on the menu. ARROWROCK RESERVOIR: Bank anglers are only catching a few trout, but trollers are finding both kokanee and rainbows using small pop gear or single baited spinners. The kokanee are still fairly deep, but will be coming up as water temperatures warm. Bass anglers are also finding smallmouth using crankbaits and jerkbaits. BROWNLEE RESERVOIR: Crappie fishing has finally arrived with anglers catching fish upstream and downstream from the cemetery and near Swedes Landing. Bass fishing has also been strong for anglers using crankbaits, jerkbaits and crawdad-colored plastics. The catfish are also biting. All boat ramps are available except Holcomb Park, but the reservoir levels are dropping so the

TIPS & TRICKS As water temperatures increase, insects start hatching and that’s when small baitfish move closer to shore. When that happens, crappie will move in right behind to feed on the small baitfish and insects. The best time for this occurs early in the season after the sun has spent the better part of the day warming the shallows. Look for blowdowns, brush, or tumbleweeds piled in the backs of coves or small bays where crappie will be drawn in like magnets. These little structure alleys will attract hatching insects and baitfish for crappie to feed on. The water temperature that typically starts this early season action is about 55 degrees, but I’ve seen full buckets of crappie caught in water nearly 10 degrees cooler. The best lure to use for fast action is a tiny, tube-like jig. Color sometimes matters, but here in southwestern Idaho, red and white is hard to beat. The best depths to fish are typically about six feet or less. When you rig your tube jig, place a small bobber two or three feet up from the jig. To cast, let it settle then retrieve it slow, stopping every few feet. The bobber basically keeps your jig at the same depth. I often fish without a bobber at first to determine what depth the fish may be hanging. In detecting the bite, crappies will often grab your jig and swim to the side, or the bobber will tip up and then move slowly down. The tube jig body is soft plastic, so give the crappie a little time to suck it down. The best thing about the tube jig is that if you miss the strike, you will often get another bite right away. Spring Recreation Camp boat ramp may be marginal soon. BOISE RIVER: River flows have come up a little to just above 780 cfs, which is still an excellent flow for catching recently stocked trout. Fishermen are catching fish using small spinners, flies,

eggs and worms. C. J. STRIKE RESERVOIR: Crappie anglers are catching some big fish in the Cottonwood area and a few fish up the Bruneau Arm. Boat anglers are also catching perch mid-lake and up the Bruneau Arm to Cottonwood Camp-

Plus, they are salt-impregnated for maximum attraction and to ensure the fish holds the bite long enough for a solid hook set. All you need to do is add your favorite size and weighted jig and go fishing. Contact Howard’s Tackle Shoppe at 465-0946. You can stop by the store at 1707 Garrity Blvd. Nampa. Howard’s carries a full line of fishing tackle, rods and reels for catching bass, crappie, catfish, sturgeon, trout, salmon and steelhead. ground using worms and cutbait. Bass fishing has been excellent. Try crankbaits, jerkbaits, or jigs and weightless worms. Trout fishing has slowed down. Call Jim at the Bruneau One Stop at 845-2511 for the latest conditions. DUCK VALLEY RESERVATION: Anglers are catching fish from shore and fly fishermen are catching fish as well. Anglers are also reporting catching some fish at Sheep Creek and Lake Billy Shaw. HORSETHIEF RESERVOIR: Anglers are still catching fair numbers of smaller fish using spinners, bait and flies. Most of the fish are cruising the shorelines looking for food early in the day. LAKE LOWELL: Bass fishing has been excellent with anglers catching fish on spinnerbaits, chatterbaits and plastics throughout the weedlines. Anglers can also catch catfish, crappie, bluegill and even trout. LITTLE CAMAS RESERVOIR: The water level is dropping, but fishing is still fair for bank fishermen near the dam using worms, marshmallows, and

PowerBait. Fly anglers are also catching fish from float tubes using Stayner Ducktails, Sheep Creek Specials and Woolly Buggers. Lucky Peak Boat anglers are picking up kokanee and a few rainbows trolling to 25-35 feet. Bank anglers are still catching a few fish using marshmallow, PowerBait or worm combos. MAGIC RESERVOIR: Perch fishing is slow, but trout fishing continues to be good when the wind isn’t howling, with a few nice fish being caught by both bank fishermen and fly fishermen. OWYHEE RESERVOIR: Crappie fishing has been on fire from Leslie Gulch to Cherry Creek. The ramp is out of the water at Leslie, but bank anglers have been lining the shore and catching plenty of fish. Bass anglers are catching fish using crankbaits, jerkbaits and dragging plastics over rocky points and over mud and gravel banks. OWYHEE RIVER: The flows have dropped a little to around 140 cfs. Caddis

hatches should be improving with warmer days and with BWOs coming off late morning or mid-afternoon. Midges popping on and off throughout the day should improve fishing as well. Please avoid crossing the riffles until after the spring runoff. SNAKE RIVER: Bass and catfish are still biting up and down the river. Crawdad-colored crankbaits, jigs or plastics for bass; crickets, worms or stinkbait for cats. Shallow presentations are key for catching fish. WILSON SPRINGS PONDS: Wilson Pond and Springs Creek were stocked with trout Monday, along with Marsing Pond. There are plenty of other recent stocking opportunities for fishing throughout the valley in other ponds and streams. For the latest stocking report check out the Idaho Fish & Game website at: fishandgame.idaho.gov for more information on stocking and fishing regulations. C M Y K

At-risk dogs should get vaccine

Leptospirosis is a re-emerging disease. This bacterial disease most commonly causes liver and kidney problems in dogs, but can also cause lung, pancreas and eye symptoms. ELS SLURINK It is a zoonotic disease, VETERINARIAN meaning it can be transferred from animals to people. In fact, it is the most common zoonotic disease in the world. Drinking contaminated water is a common mode of transmission for humans and animals. It is present in the urine of infected animals, so bodies of water, food (for instance, if rodents have access), soil, or even the beach (California sea lions carry leptospirosis) can easily be contaminated. Decades ago, veterinarians routinely vaccinated for this disease in a combination vaccine with distemper, hepatitis and parvo, until problems with the leptospirosis part of the vaccine developed. The older vaccine protected against only two types of leptospirosis, the immunity lasted only about six months and it was the leptospirosis portion of the vaccine that was most likely to cause an allergic reaction. More recently, when it became apparent that the disease was becoming more prevalent, a new and better vaccine was developed. The newer vaccine protects against four different types of leptospirosis, the immunity lasts for a year and allergic reactions are not likely. Many veterinarians are now recommending that dogs be vaccinated for leptospirosis if they are at risk due to their lifestyle. So dogs that go on hikes, go to the beach, go to lakes, streams or rivers, or have access to wildlife should be vaccinated. If you have a rodent problem at your house, you should have your dog vaccinated. Discuss your dog’s risk with your veterinarian. There are even some urban areas that have a problem with leptospirosis. The first year your dog is vaccinated, it will receive a set of two vaccines, given three weeks apart. The vaccine is given annually thereafter. Ask your veterinarian if you have any questions.

In fact, Gary spent time with a gentleman from Virginia who’d lost his once beautiful sailboat

after it was blown aground and apart by a hurricane there. Although Gary didn’t say so in his comments about the island, taking into account that he spent a month there, I’m sure he found the time to make a night visit to Mosquito Bay, also called Phosphorescent Bay.

Why didn’t you marry your ex-fiancee? DEAR ANNIE: I’m in my 40s and have been married for 20 years. We have two children. Our marriage has been OK but not totally fulfilling. For the past five years, I have been in contact with my ex-fiancee. I have thought about getting divorced a number of times but have never gone through with it. I love my wife, but not the same way I love my ex. Whenever I speak with my ex, I am my happy old self. She is the most caring, sweet, romantic person I’ve ever met, and I know, without a doubt, that our lives would be happy if we were together. Not a day goes by that I don’t think about her. We treat each other the way people should be treated. My children do not have the best relationship with their mother, so I don’t think a divorce would be all that traumatizing for them. I just don’t want to hurt her. I have spoken to her about the things I’d like changed, but she only complies for a short while, and then things go back to the way they were. Is this just a midlife crisis? Should I settle and stick with my current life or take a chance on a new one? — Wanting No Regrets DEAR WANTING: So why didn’t you marry your ex-fiancee? It’s not uncommon to fantasize about a wonderful life with someone you don’t actually live with. The mundane responsibilities, raising children, doing housework, paying

ANNIE’S MAILBOX Advice

bills — all of those things are unromantic and unexciting. It takes work to make a good marriage. Don’t simply tell your wife what you want her to change. Maybe she’d like you to change, too. We commend you for not wanting to hurt her. So please give your marriage a chance before you bail. Ask your wife to come with you for marriage counseling to see whether you can work through some of those things that are making you unhappy. DEAR ANNIE: My husband recently passed away after 40 years together. It’s been heartbreaking. While going through his desk, I found a checkbook for our joint trust account. He had written in it that he wanted to leave all five of our children a sizable amount of money. I have no problem with four of them, as they are all employed and responsible adults. However, the fifth “child” is 58, unemployed and living on his veterans benefits and disability so he can smoke medical marijuana. I have already written checks for the first four kids, but I am dragging my feet about the fifth. It was my husband’s wish that they

all be treated equally. Am I being disrespectful to my husband’s memory by not getting a check out to my son? I’m afraid he will blow it all on weed. — An Anxious Mom DEAR MOM: We think your son is probably as responsible as he’s going to get. Certainly your husband knew this. Talk to your son. Explain that he has money coming to him, but you are concerned that it won’t last very long. Ask whether he’d like you to pay it to him in installments or put it in a trust for his long-term benefit. He may actually prefer an arrangement like this, but if not, please give him the money anyway. What he does with it is not your problem. DEAR ANNIE: Perhaps the owners of vacation homes whose guests leave photos of their own families in the home could start guest scrapbooks. A large scrapbook would provide room for visitors to note when they were there and perhaps mention a few of the more interesting things they did while enjoying the generous hospitality of the owners. This would provide a nice memory book for both the owners and guests, as well as providing an appropriate place for guests to leave their family photos. — Barbara in Ventura

Corneal transplants have high degree of success DEAR DOCTOR K: I’m scheduled to have a corneal transplant. What can I expect during this procedure? DEAR READER: The cornea is the clear, round “window” that allows light to enter the front of the eye. If the cornea becomes severely diseased or damaged, it can cause a significant loss of vision. A corneal transplant often is the best solution. In this procedure, an eye surgeon replaces part of the cornea with a section of healthy cornea taken from a deceased donor. Donor corneas come from a local eye bank. Before surgery, your doctor may prescribe antibiotic eye drops. You may need to adjust or

soft eye patch and hard eye shield. Steroid eye drops will help prevent your body from rejecting the transplanted tissue. Rejection is the most common complication: The body’s immune system identifies the donor cornea as foreign and begins to attack it. In most cases, rejection can be treated successfully with medication. You’ll continue to wear the eye patch for a few days. Sutures are usually left in place for several months, or they may be allowed to remain in the eye permanently. After the transplant, your vision should improve gradually over a period of months. Corneal transplant surgery was first performed more than

100 years ago. Over the years, the results have become much better. Superior surgical equipment now is available, and the risks of infection are much lower because of antibiotics. The risk that the transplanted cornea will be rejected has been greatly reduced by medicines that suppress the immune system in the eye. Even 60 years ago, people with damaged corneas could not always be saved from blindness. Today, the odds are very good that their vision can be restored.
