Fair board approves purchase of equipment

BY PAOLO CISNEROS THE SHERIDAN PRESS

SHERIDAN — A nationally recognized food systems expert told an audience of about 25 people Thursday that while the effort to build a truly local food economy may take years of effort, the nutritional, economic and cultural benefits are likely well worth it for a community like Sheridan. Ken Meter, president of the nonprofit Crossroads Resource Center in Minneapolis, gave the presentation at the CTEL presentation hall at Sheridan College. Before launching into his speech, he told the crowd that despite some of the negative national statistics he was about to unveil, a burgeoning awareness of local foods has opened the door for areas like Sheridan County to become more economically self-sufficient while strengthening their communities. “I think this is really a very transformative moment in American society,” he said. Still, profits for food producers have failed to keep pace with inflation in recent decades, thanks largely to government policies and various other factors that Meter said have lessened Americans’ collective understanding of the importance of what they eat. “I would argue that despite all the bells and whistles our food policy has achieved today, we’re actually dumber about food today than we were 100 years ago,” he said. At the heart of Meter’s argument was the idea that investment in better food systems may well be the best path forward for improving the national economy. As the one sector of the national market that no one can opt out of, Meter said the willingness of communities to build stronger connections within a local food ecosystem can go a long way toward strengthening a given regional economy. “If you think differently about marketing, you can find a way to build wealth at the community level,” he said. Meter went on to discuss several examples of community farming across the country and how by building relationships between farmers, restaurants and other such entities, small towns and big cities alike are taking charge of both their health and their finances.

SHERIDAN — The Powder River Basin Resource Council will host its second annual Wild and Scenic Film Festival: A Climate of Change on Wednesday at Centennial Theatre. “Some of them are eye candy but most of them have a story to tell,” said Bill Bensel, organizer for PRBRC. “Not just great scenery, but some issues that are facing people in the community or in the

SEEDA, DSA nab state grants FROM STAFF REPORTS

SHERIDAN — A pair of grant requests from two Sheridan economic development groups were approved by the State Loan and Investment Board earlier this week at a meeting in Cheyenne. The approvals mean Sheridan will benefit from the more than $8 million the group allocated to organizations across Wyoming. The Sheridan Economic and Educational Development Authority was awarded a $49,800 planning grant which will go toward updating a 2007 regional targeted industry study. Planners expect the study to be supplemented by about $25,000 in SEEDA funds and $16,000 in matching funds from the city. Set to be conducted in two separate phases, the first portion will focus on ana-

lyzing the existing workforce and educational opportunities currently available in Sheridan. From there, organizers will conduct an in-depth economic analysis of the area in order to determine how area industries and institutions might best adapt to changing times. The group hopes to finish the economic analysis portion of the study sometime this summer. Additionally, SLIB awarded the nonprofit Downtown Sheridan Association a $25,000 grant to fund a feasibility study aimed at revitalizing Sheridan’s downtown district. The effort is in keeping with the DSA's 2010 economic development strategy and its goal of spurring economic activity in the area. SEE GRANTS, PAGE 3

globe generally and people stepping up to take them on. It is not just a recreation thing, it has more depth than that.” The local festival is a smaller, traveling version of the national film fest that kicked off in January in Nevada City, Calif. Though the main festival features close to 90 films, the Sheridan film fest will highlight a smaller group of the films along four environmental themes.

SHERIDAN — It’s all about the dirt — at the fairgrounds, at least. The Sheridan County Fair Association voted at its regular meeting Thursday to purchase a new arena disc to work, condition and level the dirt in the track and arena areas to provide the best possible footing for all users and events at the fairgrounds. The old disc appears homemade and was bought used, according to a report by Jamie Ringley, fairgrounds director. The axle is bent, bearings are worn out and teeth are broken or missing, which compromises the quality of the dirt. A new disc is estimated to cost approximately $1,400. “The dirt is what makes this place. On a dude ranch, it would be the horses. Here it is the dirt that is of the most concern. We want to have the right piece of equipment in place,” Ringley said. The board also voted to sell the DragMaster Arena Drag it purchased last July for $20,000. Although the DragMaster was bought with the intention of being an all-in-one piece of equipment that could do the work of the disc, the cultipacker and the arenavator, five hours of use have shown it is not heavy-duty enough for the deep, almost daily conditioning required by two outdoor arenas and an outdoor track, Ringley said. Fairgrounds staff have already replaced the teeth and sprinkler heads on the machine. “It was with the best of intentions that it was bought to be an all-in-one piece of equipment,” Ringley said. “It’s not just an arena here. It’s two arenas and a track that is fairly massive. It’s just one of those things.” Proceeds from the sale of the DragMaster will be used to purchase a new disc and for other projects around the fairgrounds as approved. “This body is not real interested in buying new equipment every year,” board chair Steve Eliason said, encouraging Ringley and his staff not to cut corners on equipment purchase. At the recent snowmobile expo event at the fairgrounds, it was discovered that the speaker system for the grandstands had blown off the roof of the

Wyo. Game and Fish Department: Area game crime on the rise FROM STAFF REPORTS

SHERIDAN — Wildlife crime in the Sheridan region increased in 2012 but violations were less serious than years past, according to a press release from the Wyoming Game and Fish Department. Violations were up by nearly 6 percent from 708 in 2011 to 750 in 2012. The Sheridan region includes Sheridan, Johnson, Campbell and a portion of Crook counties. Cases of wanton destruction — sometimes called thrill killing — nearly doubled, rising from 15 documented cases in 2011 to 26 in 2012. In wanton destruction, meat, hide and antlers are left to rot in the field and the shooter recovers nothing. The Sheridan Press 144 Grinnell Ave. Sheridan, WY 82801 307.672.2431 www.thesheridanpress.com

“The people that commit this type of crime are not hunters,” said Bruce Scigliano, game warden and regional law enforcement coordinator. “They are killers. They appear to get a thrill by shooting an animal and watching it die.” Scigliano added that research shows that wardens may find as little as 10 percent of the animals killed in this manner. Most cases of wanton destruction, animal waste and over-limit are detected when members of the public report them. “The public plays a huge role in our law enforcement effort. It shows that they care and take wildlife crime seriously,” Regional Wildlife Supervisor Joe Gilbert said.

FILM: Event raises awareness FROM 1 The festival will have two showings on April 17, with each showing featuring short films or clips with different themes. The 4:30 p.m. showing will showcase films related to water and renewable energy. The 7:15 p.m. showing will show films related to forests and wildlife. Bensel said the first showing will end about 6 p.m., allowing a short time for dinner before the second showing, for those who wish to catch both shows. The event is not meant to raise funds, but to raise awareness of environmental issues and the power of local people and communities to address them. “The ticket fee will help to defray costs, but this is not a moneymaker,” Bensel said. “It is affording some fun viewing and maybe to start or carry on some conversations about current issues. Throughout there are features, a lot on youth that are looking at issues that are pertinent to their community and are doing something to better the world as well as their home.” Tickets are $10 per show. Purchase of a ticket will automatically enter the holder to win prizes in a drawing for a barbecue dinner for six from Killy’s Smokehouse Deli and a variety of giveaways from several local sponsors. In addition, attendees who purchase a ticket will receive a free one-year trial membership in the PRBRC. For more information, contact Bensel at 672-5809.

College recognizes service-learning project FROM STAFF REPORTS

SHERIDAN — Sheridan College Construction Technology Instructor Josh Michelena and construction technology students were recently named winners of the college’s award for Outstanding Service-Learning Project. Michelena and his students were recognized for their work constructing homes for Habitat for Humanity of the Eastern Bighorns. “We are very proud of what the students do for servicelearning projects in our community, and this project is definitely one that deserves recognition,” said Tracy Dearinger, Sheridan College Director of Service-Learning, noting that this is the first year the award has been given. “Service-learning is a community service that is tied to curriculum,” she added. “This type of experience allows students to COURTESY PHOTO | not only develop and implement a service project, but they Left to right: Sheridan College Technical Area Coordinator Kevin Fox, President of Northern Wyoming engage in active self-reflection Community College District Dr. Paul Young, Sheridan College Construction Technology students Jacob that attaches personal meaning Buszkiewic, Preston Walters, Truman Floate, Jordan Erickson, Zach Hutson, Jessee Craig, Dakota Hennigh, to the event.

BOOST: Can take years to build local foods market that is truly sustainable FROM 1 “This is inspiring bipartisan work,” he said. “We have very little to lose by doing the right thing.” Still, efforts may not take root immediately. Meter warned the audience that truly sustainable systems can take years, if not decades to take hold. “This is all a process of building on prior victories,” he said. Either way, audience members seemed eager to find ways in which they

might get involved. Powder River Basin Resource Council organizer Bill Bensel said that Sheridan — with its booming farmers’ market and abundance of ranchers — is in a good position to foster a productive conversation about reinventing the area’s food system. “There’s a start here,” he said. “The demand is out there for these products.” The Local Food Expo and Earth Day Festival is set for April 20 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the Sheridan College Bruce Hoffman Golden Dome and Watt Agricultural Center. The day will feature earth friendly vendors, free workshops, exhibitors and expert panels among other events.

CRIME: WGFD hotline open for reports 24/7 FROM 1 Even with the increase in wanton destruction, the wildlife crime severity index declined in 2012. This index is used by the department to measure the overall severity of yearly violations. “The severity index has been going up for several years, but this year it declined,” Scigliano said. “This may be due to a greater proportion of less serious fishing or watercraft-related violations.” The Wyoming Game and Fish Department said it appreciates those who reported wildlife crime in 2012 and encourages anyone with knowledge of violations to call Game and Fish’s Stop Poaching hotline at 877-WGFD-TIP (24 hours a day, seven days a week). Callers may remain anonymous and are eligible for a reward.

Woman sentenced to 2 days for wagon crash CASPER (AP) — A woman has been sentenced to two days in jail

for crashing her SUV into a horse-drawn wagon in Casper last summer. Natrona County Circuit Judge Michael Huber also fined Autumn Middleton $200, plus court costs on Wednesday. The Casper StarTribune reports that Middleton pleaded no contest on Wednesday to careless driving. Police say the crash happened shortly after noon July 10 as the wagon was traveling home from a parade in downtown Casper. Authorities say Middleton rear-ended the wagon. Three people in the wagon were injured, and two horses had to be euthanized. Middleton’s attorney noted that his client did not face a speeding violation and the wagon did not have a warning emblem for slow moving vehicles.

Miffed with the triangulator

Brinton opens, Young leads

A

dose of good news, a sign of spring, that sort of thing... The Brinton Museum in Big Horn opens Sunday with a major exhibition, featuring the art of Fra Dana (1874-1948.) According to Kenneth Schuster, director and chief curator at Brinton, Ms. Dana was one of the “most enigmatic artists of the early 20th century.” He also calls her work exquisite and remarkable. It’ll be on display through June 23 and is the first known public exhibition of her work. It is entitled, “Fra Dana: American Impressionist in the Rockies.” Fra Dana and her husband, Edwin L. Dana, lived and ranched in the Parkman area before moving their cattle operation to Great Falls, Mont., in 1937. At one time, their PUBLISHER’S Hereford operation was the largest in NOTEBOOK Montana and | Wyoming, so says Stephen Woody Schuster. She traveled abroad – Paris, Cairo – and the east coast as well, painting with well-known artists of the day and befriending Bill Gollings, becoming a mentor. The Brinton Museum opens Sunday at noon. •••••• More Brinton news….. Tuesday’s edition of The Sheridan Press featured a big story, photos and an architectural drawing of the expansion of The Brinton Museum which gets underway in June with an opening in 2015. Sheridan architect Tim Belton has created the stunning design which will fit into the surrounding hillside and will feature large galleries and a public bistro. •••••• Of local expansion………. Dr. Paul Young, president of our Sheridan College, has been appointed president-elect of the American Technical Educational Association. Young will serve for two years starting in July, just about the time the new Whitney Academic Center opens on the thriving campus. ATEA is the leading association for technical education. No doubt a good many craftsmen/craftswomen hereabouts got their feet wet in a variety of trades in the SC classrooms. With Dr. Young’s leadership, SC has expanded its jobs-centric educational opportunities. One unique fact: there are three technical program campuses in Sheridan. The Sheridan College magazine arrived the other day, edited by the evercapable Wendy Smith. Some recent fast facts about our local college: • Fifty-three percent of the 1,403 members of the student body (Sept. 2012 census; 1,968 head count) are from Sheridan County. Some 86 percent are from Wyoming. • The average age is 24 with more female (57 percent) students to males. • The operating budget is more than $24 million annually with more than 350 full-time and part-time educators, administrators and staff. • Almost two-thirds of the college’s appropriations comes from the state; another 24 percent from tuition and fees with local appropriations coming in at 10 percent. • Sheridan College awards more than $1 million annually in scholarships. Good stuff, this. Good college, too.

Guns but no roses T

he biggest obstacle to the Obama administration's push for tighter gun control may be its own best argument: Newtown. This is because nothing proposed in the gun control debates would have prevented the mass killing of children at Sandy Hook Elementary School, and everybody knows it. At best, tighter gun laws will make us feel better. Let's review: The Newtown killer was a mentally disturbed young man living with his mother. She had legally purchased her arsenal and had even taught her son how to responsibly handle firearms. What she did not do was: (1) deal appropriately with her son's mental illness; (2) safely contain her guns so that her son could not access them. As much as anyone, I am eager to do whatever will make a difference. But I'm unconvinced that what is being proposed will provide the solution we seek. Universal background checks are a perfectly good idea, except that they won't stop the burglar who recently cleaned out our house of all our legally purchased rifles and shotguns, including an antique belonging to my greatgrandfather, who, as sheriff of Barnwell County, S.C., confiscated the gun from the triple murderer he tracked for three days and finally killed. (I want that gun back, please.) Those guns are now in circulation among an element of society that has no intention of submitting to a background check or any other well-intentioned effort to ensure that only good guys have guns. Should we insist that buyers at gun shows submit to a quick background check as they would at any gun store? Sure. Why not? Federally licensed vendors at gun shows already have to conduct background checks, but everyday people who sell among themselves at the shows do not. Few beyond the gun lobby object to this step, but even this wouldn't have prevented Newtown. Meanwhile, what about my neighbor, Mike, who, theoretically, wants to buy a shotgun I no longer use? Is it really practical to insist that he submit to a background check? Gun control proponents would have Mike and me run down to Dick's Sporting Goods (or some other "portal") and run through a quick background check. We could do that. Or, I could just give Mike the gun and he could hand me a couple hundred dollars one of these days. If a law isn't enforceable, is it a good law? Does it prevent Newtown for neighbors to run through a little ritual that creates yet another level of government oversight for no real practical purpose

other than to create a gun registry, which, whether one thinks this is a reasonable idea, gun control advocates insist they don't want? Banning assault weapons and large magazines is appealKATHLEEN ing. But what, exactly, PARKER is an assault weapon, | anyway? Most think of assault weapons as machine guns, but many popular firearms, from ranch rifles to handguns, are, like the AR-15 used at Newtown, semi-automatic. This means that they fire only one round each time the trigger is pulled and the gun automatically reloads. Do we ban all semi-automatic weapons? Limiting the size of magazines also seems like a common-sense solution. Then again, maybe a killer would simply carry several small magazines and swap them out as Eric Harris did at Columbine High School in 1999 and Seung-Hui Cho did at Virginia Tech in 2007. Harris was armed with a Hi-Point 995 carbine with 13 magazines of 10 rounds each. His partner, Dylan Klebold, carried a semi-automatic handgun and a short-barrel shotgun, which gun experts will tell you is the most effective close-range weapon of all. And Cho used two handguns that are not considered "assault weapons." In a country with an estimated 250 million to 300 million guns, imposing new laws on honest people is problematic and bureaucratically complicated. Add to the conundrum our politics of individual freedom combined with the exploitation of emotion to craft what is likely an impotent solution, it is little wonder our congressional leadership is bamboozled. The fact is, crazy people who would commit a Newtown-type massacre constitute an infinitesimal percentage of the population. Criminals will always have guns, as the murderer on death row told me when I first wrote about this issue 30 years ago. And forcing law-abiding gun owners to submit to new regulations will not prevent another Newtown, or Aurora, or Columbine. This is not to say we should do nothing. But, lest we delude ourselves, whatever we do, we will do because it makes us feel better. Perhaps that is enough.

en. Bernie Sanders of Vermont, red in the face, took off his jacket and rolled up a shirt sleeve — but there was no relief from the discomfort of his affliction. The poor guy is suffering from triangulation. The man triangulating him, President Obama, has proposed cuts to Social Security and Medicare as part of an attempt to find a middle ground in the budget debate. For Sanders, an independent and liberal memDANA ber of the Senate MILBANK Democratic caucus, the betrayal stung so | badly that he literally took to the streets, joining left-wing activists for a protest Tuesday afternoon outside the White House. Calling Obama's offer "nuts," Sanders said: "The White House tells us they want to defend the middle class — that's their mantra. If you want to defend the middle class you don't cut Social Security, you don't cut Medicare, and you don't cut benefits for disabled vets." In reality, the progressives' street protest did Obama a favor. He needs to have the likes of Bernie Sanders against him. It strengthens his hand and helps him negotiate a better deal with Republican leaders, who can now see that liberal backbenchers and interest groups can sometimes be as intransigent as conservatives. At a Republican presidential debate in 2011, all eight candidates on the stage said they would reject a budget deal that raised taxes even if it had $10 of spending cuts for every dollar of tax increases. At Tuesday's protest, I put the reverse question to participants: Could they accept a dollar of cuts in Medicare and Social Security benefits for every $10 of increased taxes on corporations and the wealthy? All those I asked said they would decline. "Not for me, no," said Rep. Rick Nolan, D-Minn. "I'm not taking your offer," said Stephanie Taylor, co-founder of the Progressive Change Campaign Committee. ""Uh, no," said Jim Dean, the chairman of Democracy for America. The liberals' objections are legitimate — particularly their resistance to a stingier inflation formula for Social Security, which isn't as big a budget problem as Medicare. But Obama's proposal, if the details turn out to be as advertised, restores his credibility on the budget. By skirting entitlement cuts, his previous budgets weren't taken seriously. Nolan, the Minnesota congressman, was particularly agitated. He got in a showdown with police for standing too close to the White House; he dared the office Another speaker on the program, a Social Security beneficiary named Phyllis Zolotorow, got personal: "Believe me, Mr. President, this is not the way to honor your mother's memory." Jim Dean, Howard's brother, shouted into the microphones: "The era of triangulation is over!" Or is it just beginning?

Public Notices THE SHERIDAN PRESS

www.thesheridanpress.com

WHY PUBLIC NOTICES ARE IMPORTANT | Public notices allow citizens to monitor their government and make sure that it is working in their best interest. Independent newspapers assist in this cause by carrying out their partnership with the people’s right to know through public notices. By offering an independent and archived record of public notices, newspapers foster a more trusting relationship between government and its citizens. Newspapers have the experience and expertise in publishing public notices and have done so since the Revolutionary War. Today, they remain an established, trustworthy and neutral source that ably transfers information between government and the people. Public notices are the lasting record of how the public’s resources are used and are presented in the most efficient and effective means possible.

Sandra K. Redd of Sheridan, WY, age 66, died peacefully and went to be with her Lord April 9th 2013 at the Billings Clinic surrounded by her family. Sandra was born December 30th 1946 Sandra K. in Fruita, Colorado to Jack and Edith Redd (Brenneman) Murphy. She was the sibling to two sisters and one brother. She attended schools in Fruita and Denver Colorado. She married David L. Redd on September 14th, 1963. This year they would have celebrated 50 wonderful years together. She had the hardest job devoting her life to raising her two children. Her grandchildren were her “little blessings” and nothing made her happier than spending time with them. She fulfilled one of her biggest dreams taking all of her grandchildren to Disney World to ride Splash Mountain in 2008. She experienced different parts of the world on her many family vacations. One of her favorite things about living in Wyoming was all the opportunities to view wildlife and go on picnics. In addition to her husband David, she is survived by her daughter Tracie Stratton and her husband Jason of Casper, her son Justin and his wife Angie of Casper. She had five beautiful grandchildren who meant the world to her: Courtney and Corbin Stratton, Sadie, Breeann, and David J. Redd; brother Jack Murphy; sister Linda Lunsford; numerous nieces, nephews, and several close friends that were known to her as family. She was preceded in death by her parents and a sister. Memorial services will 11:00am on Tuesday (April 16th) from Champion Ferries Funeral Home with the Rev. Tim Tromble officiating. Arrangements are with Champion Ferries Funeral Home. Memorials in memory of Sandra Redd may benefit Billings Clinic Foundation “Dialysis”, P.O. Box 31031, Billings, Montana 59107.

Sheridan County rodeo athletes set to open spring in Laramie BY BRAD ESTES THE SHERIDAN PRESS

SHERIDAN —The Sheridan High School rodeo team begins its spring season this week, one of the few sports that gets to stay indoors out of the weather. Sheridan County athletes will travel to the Laramie High School Rodeo Club’s competition Saturday and Sunday at the Cliff and Martha Hansen Livestock Teaching Arena. The Sheridan rodeo team is not

school-affiliated and has no official coach. Carrie Kelly and her husband advise the athletes, who are in charge of their travel and expenses for rodeos as well as practicing on their own. Sheridan will host a rodeo during Memorial Day Weekend, May 26-27, at the Sheridan County Fairgrounds. Buffalo hosts their rodeo the weekend before that, May 25. The Laramie rodeo begins eight competitions, which will culminate in the state finals June 5-9 in

Douglas. The local team is made up of about 25 kids, both from high school and junior high, a number Kelly says is higher than usual. The team carries over several individual leaders from the three fall rodeos. Top four finishers in each event go to the National High School Rodeo Finals this July in Rock Springs. The National Junior High School Rodeo takes place in June in Gallup, N.M. The top-ranked Sheridan

Masters Day 1: Garcia looks to hold on

Weather stalls weekend sports

AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) — Sergio Garcia had an enjoyable day on a course that’s never been one of his favorites. The shots were true. The putter was steady. The score was good enough for the Masters lead. Now comes the hard part: holding it together for another three days. “We’ll see what happens,” Garcia said, sounding a bit apprehensive. For the impetuous Spaniard, that’s always been the conundrum. How can a golfer of

FROM STAFF REPORTS

SHERIDAN — While the biggest weather cancellations have hit the southern portion of the state, plenty of Sheridan County athletes will be sidelined by the recent early-spring inclement weather. The biggest hit for Sheridan County is the first home competition for area prep golfers. Kendrick Municipal Golf Course has been closed for most of the week, and the Sheridan Invitational that was set for today will be rescheduled for a later date, possibly in May, according to SHS golf coach Larry Martoglio. Big Horn, Tongue River and the host, Sheridan, traditionally use the tournament as an early season tune-up. For Saturday, the junior varsity golf tournament scheduled at the Powder Horn was also nixed, as the course is also closed. The Powder Horn will be the site of Big Horn’s host tournament next weekend. For track athletes, the Tony Lehner invite in Glenrock was canceled Thursday, leaving Arvada-Clearmont, Big Horn and Tongue River athletes without a place to run Friday. Big Horn students will hold their prom Saturday, so they’re off the field, but Tongue River and A-C kids could find another event. Check the Sheridan Press Facebook page for updates Friday. The tennis invite set for Saturday in Gillette was canceled. Sheridan Activities Director Don Julian said the event could be played at the SHS tennis courts Saturday if weather permits.

such talent have gone this long without winning a major title? Why does he keep blowing it on golf ’s biggest stages? Well, here he is again, sharing the top spot with Marc Leishman after a 6-under 66 Thursday, ripping up Augusta National with a performance that came with only one complaint: It could’ve been even better. That it happened in the Masters was even more remarkable, considering this is the one major where Garcia has never been much of a factor.

“Obviously, it’s not my most favorite place,” he said. “We try to enjoy it as much as we can each time we come here. Sometimes it comes out better than others, but today is was one of those days. You know, let’s enjoy it while it lasts.” In recent years, Garcia seemed resigned to the perception that time had passed him by — even at the relatively young age of 33. SEE MASTERS, PAGE B2

Joe’s from Sheridan, he went to Big Horn High School, and his parents live here. He’s working on law school in Baton Rouge at Louisiana State University, and he has a bunch of family down around there. You’re probably saying, there’s no professional baseball in Louisiana, and you’d be right, but I saw

some baseball of the aluminum bat variety: college ball. LSU is real good this year, ranked third in the country, and they showed that by sweeping the No. 7 ranked team Kentucky. I watched the Friday game, which LSU made look easy. They eventually outscored the Wildcats 31-6 on the weekend. Watching your first live bloop-single RBI of the season carries with it that first feeling of summer. I’m really happy to be back because, in Louisiana I hung out in weather in the high-70s and low-80s and

SHERIDAN — A second offensive lineman from the 2012 Sheridan Broncs is headed for college football. Mitch Godwin, a two-time All-Stater, signed with the Dickinson State Blue Hawks this week, joining Colin Eisenman as another Bronc from last year’s squad to play at the next level. Eisenman will attend Chadron State in the fall. Godwin heads for Dickinson, N.D., and enters a familiar offensive scheme — one that Godwin and the Broncs used to top the state of Wyoming in rushing for two years straight. Broncs offensive line coach Kevin Rizer is confident that Godwin will be a good fit at Dickinson.

Sports were as big of a part of the culture as the food. I remember what happened in the game as much as strawberry beer and

“The zone scheme that we run, he’s very very good at,” Rizer said. “They see a lot of 3-4 defenses and 3-3 defenses, and that really helps him. He’s really a zone scheme offensive lineman, and that’s what you see at the college level.” Godwin was the first to admit that his progression as a Bronc is what allowed him to make the move to college athletics. “My sophomore season, I just wasn’t tough, didn’t have the mental capacity to play at a varsity level,” Godwin said. “Something clicked, that thrust me forward into the position I needed to be.” Work ethic in the weight room translated to time on the field, which, in turn, led to Godwin being a part of a state championship run during his junior season.

smoked Boudin (sausage stuffed with sometimes meat or fish and rice) we had that day. And yeah, strawberry beer. Sounds girly till you try it. We took a boat out on the swamp to see some gators, and I found an April sunburn and brought it back to fight off these silly snowstorms. Of course, I couldn’t make the trip without seeing the ocean. Ocean is such a foreign concept to Wyoming that seeing one makes me act like a baby staring into his first bath tub. Sand, also cool. Oh

We took the full New Orleans tour, and once past our scenic route along the hurricane-ravaged Gulfport and Bay St. Louis beachfront properties in Mississippi, there was one last important stop. Kiln, Miss., is less than a two-hour drive from Baton Rouge. My love for the man and the legend named Brett Favre probably runs as annoying on the outside as it does deep on the inside.

MASTERS | Masters Glance AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) — A glance at Thursday’s first round of the Masters at the 7,435-yard, par-72 Augusta National Golf Club. Leading: Marc Leishman and Sergio Garcia, who shot opening-round 66s. Pursuing: Dustin Johnson trails by a stroke, with six other golfers — including former champion Fred Couples — another shot back in third. Where’s Tiger?: Tied for 13th with nine others, after shooting a 2-under 70. Shot of the day: Jamie Donaldson’s holein-one at the 177-yard, par-3 sixth with a “soft� 7-iron. Key stat: Fred Couples round of 68 marked the fifth time he’s shot in the 60s at the Masters since turning 50. Noteworthy: Garcia, who has yet to win a major, has challenged in the U.S. and British Opens and the PGA, but rarely at the Masters. In 14 previous appearances, he has finished in the top 10 just twice. Quoteworthy: “I’ve got to change my whole mindset and just get after these pins, because the ball’s not running like it used to and I’m giving this course way too much respect because of my past knowledge.� — three-time Masters champion Phil Mickelson.

LOUISIANA: My childhood hero’s hometown FROM B1

Favre grew up in Kiln, playing high school ball for his dad at Hancock North Central High School before going on to Southern Mississippi University. This was way before his gunslinger days, because his dad, Irv Favre, wouldn’t let him throw in high school. Brett earned his college scholarship as a running quarterback. I’ve watched the old highlights of Favre picking a hole across a read option run and his too-big shoulder pads flopping all over the place as he slashed

through a defense. Driving through Mississippi Monday afternoon I guess maybe part of me thought I’d see the old gunslinger filming a Wrangler commercial. I still assume they play pick-up football all hours of the day alongside the road down south. Trees lined the highways, so scenic viewing was scarce. It took a little bit of time, but soon signs that read “home of Brett Favre� and “where the legend began� popped up along the roadway. That was honestly enough

for me, because then the geeky-tourist defense walls went up. Remember that scene in Ace Venture, where he goes looking for estranged make-believe exDolphins kicker Ray Finkle, and he gets a gun shoved in his face? We drove past a bar that was topped with a huge Confederate Flag sign and, let’s just say, the people inside weren’t down with Obama’s gun laws. I don’t even think it had a front door. Roll ‘em up, as Chevy Chase would say. The drive through was more than enough for me.

MASTERS: Woods happy with first-round 70 Until Thursday, he had not led in any round of a major since the British Open at Carnoustie in 2007, when he set the pace the first three days but lost — of course — to Padraig Harrington in a playoff. That was the latest in a series of bitter disappointments, of close-but-no-cigar calls in every major championship but the Masters, where he has only two top10 finishes in his previous 14 appearances. Last year, he shot himself out of contention during a dismal third round and bluntly declared he just didn’t have the game or temperament to win a major championship — certainly not at Augusta. “Maybe I didn’t say it the right way because it was one of those frustrating moments,� he conceded. There was none of that frustration on the opening day of this Masters. The first 10 holes might’ve been as good as Garcia can play, a 5-under score he made look downright easy. “If I manage to make a couple of putts that kind of stayed around the lip, I could have been probably 7- or 8-under par through 10,� Garcia said. “It was that good.� We’ve seen this from him before, just not over the entire four days of a major. That will be the big question when he tees off Friday morning after heavy overnight rains soaked the course, perhaps setting up another day of low scores. “Every time I tee it off, I try to play as well as I can, hope that my best that week is really, really good,� he said. “My best was pretty good, and I’m looking forward to doing the same thing the next three days. It will be really nice.� Plenty of players took advantage of the gentle conditions. Even an eighth-grader. Guan Tianlang, the 14-year-old from China and youngest to compete in a major in 148 years, played well beyond his age. He holed a 15-foot putt from just off the 18th green for a respectable round of 73 and a reasonable chance of making the cut. Tiger Woods wasn’t far off as he began his quest for a fifth green jacket. Wild at the start, including a tee shot that knocked a cup of beer out of a spectator’s hand, Woods settled into a groove and opened with a 70 as his girlfriend, Olympic ski champion Lindsey Vonn, watched on a few holes. In his four Masters wins, Woods has never opened with a score lower than 70. His key is not to shoot himself out of the tournament. “It’s a good start,� he said. “Some years, some guys shot 65 starting out

“As a sophomore I remember being really frustrated with Mitch on a regular basis,� Rizer said. “But he’s a kid that absolutely was coachable. He listened. We told him what he thought he needed to do, and the shift from his sophomore to his junior year was just phenomenal. I’ve been coaching since ‘94, and I don’t think I’ve ever seen a

kid make that kind of an adjustment in a single season.� Godwin exacted one game that stood out to him in cementing his arrival as a varsity standout. During his junior season in a game against Evanston, the Broncs racked up 300 yards rushing. All five lineman were named players of the game by head coach Don Julian. “Having the chance to

start my junior season‌it’s just turned my entire life around,â€? Godwin concluded. “It really is exciting. I thought that I was never going to get this far and now I am. I’ve always wanted to play past high school. College football is just another step to get closer. Just like every little kid’s dream, you want to play in the league. This is how I get closer to that, playing up at Dickenson.â€?

here. But right now, I’m only four back and I’m right there.� Garcia and Leishman had a one-shot lead over Dustin Johnson, who has a game that fits perfectly for Augusta and he finally brought it. Johnson hit a 9iron for his second shot on the par-5 13th and made a 15-foot eagle putt, and he smashed his drive on the par-5 15th and hit pitching wedge just through the green for an easy birdie. Fred Couples, the 53-year-old wonder at his favorite major, made bogey on the 18th and still was in the large group at 68. There were a dozen rounds in the 60s, and nearly half the field shot par or better. Threetime Masters champion Phil Mickelson recovered from a rough start by running off four birdies in a five-hole stretch on the back nine to salvage a 71, while Rory McIlroy had a 72. Woods said he struggled with the slower pace of the greens, and so did defending champion Bubba Watson, who opened with a 75. “They’re soft and they are slow, and consequently we have 45 people at par or better,� Mickelson said. “But that means I’ve got to change my whole mindset and just get after these pins, because the ball’s not running like it used to and I’m giving this course way too much respect because of my past knowledge.� It’s not about respect for Garcia. Augusta National is the ultimate lovehate relationship, and Thursday was a rarity. He loved it. Garcia began his round with an approach that danced by the hole and left him a tap-in birdie. He rolled in a 20foot birdie on the par-3 sixth, and then shot up the leaderboard with a pair of tough, downhill putts from 8 feet on the ninth and 15 feet on the 10th. Will this be the week he finally — FINALLY! — breaks through? Adam Scott, who is playing with Garcia the first two days, said it’s never out of the question. Never mind that 0for-57 mark in the majors. “He’s got more than potential to win any tournament he plays in,� Scott said. Garcia will admit he sometimes lets his emotions get the best of him, which is not exactly the way to deal with trying to hold yourself together over four of the sport’s most stressful days. But Scott doesn’t think for a minute that Garcia has given up on the idea of winning a major title. “He wears his heart on his sleeve and I’m sure that’s how he felt at the time he said it,� the Aussie said. “So I think it’s a bit of a throwaway line. I don’t think he’s living by that at all.� Garcia struggled off the tee on the back nine, and he three-putted for par at the 13th. He also made tough par saves on the 11th and 17th for his first bogeyfree round at the Masters since 2002.

Bridge DO NOT FORGET TO COUNT THE POINTS Virginia Woolf said, "On the outskirts of every agony sits some observant fellow who points." It is a sad fact of bridge that it does not matter how great your bidding might be. If you do not make the contract, the opponents get points. In this deal, how should South plan the play in four hearts? West leads the spade king. East overtakes with his ace and returns his second spade. West takes this trick, cashes the club ace, and plays another club. When West's one-spade opening bid was passed around to South, his balancing three-heart jump overcall was intermediate, showing a respectable sixcard suit and 14 to 16 highcard points. North would no doubt have bid four hearts

Phillip Alder anyway, but West's threespade rebid definitely pushed him into it. East let the prevailing vulnerability dissuade him from bidding four spades. (Note that four spades doubled goes down two, minus 500.) Declarer must play the heart suit without loss. If the opponents had passed throughout, South would have taken the finesse. (A priori, East will have the heart king 50 percent of the time, but West will have a singleton king only 13 percent of the time.) Here, though, South must remember the bidding. East passed over his partner's opening bid and has already produced the spade ace. If he also had the heart king, he would have had seven points and would have

responded. Therefore, West has the king of hearts. South should play a heart to his ace and claim when the king luckily drops. Especially when an opponent opened, always check the high-card points.

BORN LOSER® by Art and Chip Sansom

DON'T WALK THIS WAY BY MICHAEL ROIZEN, M.D., AND MEHMET OZ, M.D. In one episode of "The Honeymooners" Ralph (Jackie Gleason) is trying to figure out how to stop Norton (Art Carney) from nightly sleepwalking; it makes for great 1950s TV humor. But today, we understand more about the affliction -- and guess what? It's really not a laughing matter. Sleepwalking is often a signal of deeper troubles, like depression and anxiety. In some cases, a late-night snooze 'n' stroll even ends violently. One study found that 58 percent of sleepwalkers lash out while in the trance, and 17 percent inflict enough harm that either their bed partner or the

sleepwalker ends up in the emergency room. Sleepwalking inflicts damage to the body during waking hours, too. That's because it prevents you from going into REM (rapid eye movement) sleep, a state of heightened brain activity and muscle immobility that is essential for information processing, memory formation and tension regulation. REM deprivation triggers chronic fatigue, weight gain, and a wide range of

health issues, from headaches to heart disease. If you live with someone who sleepwalks, note the timing of late-night strolls. When you see a pattern, set your alarm 15 minutes BEFORE your bedmate's expected exit and jostle him or her into a semi-awake state. This will change the sleep cycle and hopefully prevent sleepwalking. Stressreduction techniques -including exercise (10,000 steps a day is a good goal), meditation and psychotherapy -- also may help. And many people get good results from going to a sleep clinic (this is particularly important if you live alone). Happy trails and sweet dreams.

PRISONER REGRETTING HIS PAST HAS TROUBLE SEEING THE FUTURE DEAR ABBY: I'm a 50-yearold man who is serving time for robbery in West Virginia. Every day I wake up acting as if I am in control and don't have a care in the world. The truth is, I'm scared, lonely and feel totally helpless. All my life I have lived on the dark side of the street, taking for granted the values in life and the love so many people tried to give me. Two failed marriages and several relationships with good women are over because of my determination to follow an unhealthy dream, not to mention all the friends I have lost as well. Now as I look around me, there's no one there. No one to love and no one to love me. I never knew until now that chasing that dream would cost me everyone I ever loved. I know I have made bad choices in life. I deserve the time for the crime I committed. But am I also sentenced to a world of loneliness? Can I ever be loved again and be happy after all the wrong I

have done? Is there someone out there who would be willing to give me a chance? Is it too late to

start over? Abby, you have so many answers for so many people, I am just hoping you have an answer for me. -- SERVING TIME DEAR SERVING TIME: It is never too late to start over. With penitence comes redemption. If you are willing to journey down a different path, the relationships you form along the way will be rewarding, long-lasting and mutual. Because of your criminal record you may have to work harder to gain trust, but I promise you that if you're willing to work at it, it can be done. DEAR ABBY: My ex-husband, the father of our two children, was retired from

the Air Force. He passed away 18 years ago. He had a full military funeral, with draped flag and all. His wife at the time was presented with the flag, which was proper. They had no children. When she passes on, would it be proper for her family to give the flag to his biological children? After all, they were with him -- as was I -throughout his entire 22-year military career. When my daughter mentioned it to his wife, she got angry. -- C. IN TEXAS DEAR C.: Your former husband's wife was entitled to whatever property was left after his demise. The flag is hers to bestow -- or not. I don't know how your daughter's request was phrased, but the woman may have been offended by the way the question was asked. I can't think of any other reason she would become angry. DEAR ABBY: I am writing regarding a letter you printed Jan. 26 from "Wants to Be Polite." I appreciate the person's sentiments because I, too, want to use good manners and a "You're welcome" or "Have a nice day" is a pleasing reply to hear. What I do NOT like is a "No problem" reply to a "Thank you." It does not seem like a sincere response to me. In fact, it sounds like I was expected to be a problem and just happened not to be one. Any thoughts on this? -ARKANSAS LADY DEAR ARKANSAS LADY: You may not like hearing it, but you had better get used to it. While "You're welcome" may be more gracious, saying "No problem" reflects a generational shift in the vernacular. And while it may seem jarring, it is intended to be a polite response, so accept it graciously. Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Hints from Heloise Solutions for the Sleepless Dear Heloise: I am one of the millions who find it hard to go BACK TOSLEEP once I am awakened at night. One easy solution is to change the nightlight bulb to green or blue. The colored bulbs provide enough light, but do not seem to glare like the white ones do. Another solution to the fluorescent-green numerals on my alarm clock that are too bright is to plop a tissue box in front of the clock. It is easy to lift up if I need to see the time, but the bright numerals don't wake me up when I roll over at night! Cheap and simple solutions to a problem that many of us deal with. -- Sleepless in New Jersey I'm with you! With only two to three electronic items in a dark bedroom, it can look like

When in the car, buckling up is very important. Here are recommendations from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration on buckling up when pregnant: * Put the seat as far back as it can go while still being able to

reach the pedals. * Leave at least 10 inches between your chest and the steering wheel. * Place the lap belt below your belly so that it fits tightly across your hips. * The shoulder belt should fit across your chest between your breasts. * Leave air bags turned on. * Sit in the back seat, when possible, if you are pregnant. The NHTSA also recommends installing the car seat at least three weeks before your due date. That way, you have a chance to get it inspected and aren't rushing when the baby comes. -- Heloise

She hosted "The Caroline Rhea Show" for a season and spent three seasons as a host of "The Biggest Loser." ARIES (March 21-April 19): Pamper your inner child.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Sweet dreams are made of this. You are so romantic and full of fun that a casual playmate may begin to think about a having a longterm relationship. Make a major purchase and receive lasting benefits. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Not everything has a price tag. Good advice can be priceless. If you're itching to make a major purchase, you'll be more satisfied with the outcome if you wait until next week. CANCER (June 21-July 22): Happiness might begin with a hobby. Over the next few days, crafts and camaraderie can add color and a touch of glamour to life. Partners may have some exciting creative ideas, as

well. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Wind up your winter projects and put away the sleds and snow shovels so that you will be ready to initiate spring activities. Be skeptical of a sales pitch; this is a good day to ask for professional advice. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You could be considered a rock of reliability for your partner. Unconditional love means accepting whatever comes your way and going ahead and doing what needs to be done without quibbling. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Let your love life enjoy a renaissance.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22Dec. 21): Get every whim satisfied with a snap of your fingers. It won't require much effort to have it your way. Find ways to spend quality time with a special someone and explore new frontiers. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): It's a good time to sit down for a frank discussion to find out where you stand.

You and a partner can come to an understanding under these sensitive and kindhearted planetary alignments. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): To plant ideas or anything of value, first you must have a receptive place prepared. It's a good idea to weed the flower beds or put away winter clothing to prepare for an entirely new season. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Don't let flattery go to your head. You may be the sole object of someone's affection or the center of attention. Fleeting popularity may boost your confidence, but be alert for fair-weather friends.
