returning a class ring he
had found to its rightful

Blackfoot resident Skeet Anderson displays his treasures he has found from metal detecting.
RING, continued from 1A
a short time when all he
found was bottle caps and
pennies.
“I decided to sweep one
more time and the metal
detector started beeping.
I figured it was another
bottle cap but I dug it up
anyway,” Anderson said. “I
pulled out the class ring
and knew by the engraving that it belonged to Joe
Gianini.”
Gianini had lost the ring
approximately 40 years ago
in the yard where he lived
at the time.
“My mom and dad
bought me the ring in
1972, and it meant a great
deal to me. It disappeared
in 1973 before I went into
the Marine Corps.,” Gianini
said. “I never knew how it
got lost I just knew that one
day it was missing off of the
dresser where I kept it.
“About two or three
weeks ago an old high
school friend told me
that Skeet Anderson had
found my high school ring
while metal detecting at
the house we lived in on
Rogers Street. It was very
awesome.”
Other items Anderson
has found metal detecting around Blackfoot have
been toy metal cars, muskets, jewelry and old coins.
“I once found a gold pin
at my mother in laws home
on Stout Street behind the
old high school,” Anderson
said. “It was a bronco with
a rider on it. It was about
the size of a pencil eraser.”

Idaho increasingly saying ‘no’
to local government control
BOISE (AP) — Idaho
lawmakers are reminding
cities and counties that
they don’t always have
local control over imposing restrictions on businesses and citizens.
Two proposals have
already been introduced
during this year’s legislative session that would
prevent local governments
from implementing their
own rules on plastic bag
bans and minimum wage
levels. The measures follow similar trends nationwide where states have
stepped in after city officials have proposed local
policies that businesses or
lawmakers didn’t like.
“You have to remember
this, not only are cities but
also counties, are creatures
of the state,” said Gov.
C.L. “Butch” Otter. “I don’t
think it is out of character
or out of their responsibility for the state — in a very
limited way — to continue
to have oversight.”
Otter declined to comment if he agreed with
the most recent proposals currently making their
way through the Idaho
Legislature, but said such
measures wouldn’t impede
on individual choice to
avoid a plastic bag or find
a job at a higher wage.
Handfuls of states
across the country have
stepped up to bar local
municipalities from regulating drilling, limiting the
types of seeds sown for
crops, as well as providing
employees paid sick leave,
vacation or health, disability and retirement.
In Idaho, cities and
counties are currently
banned from setting their
own regulations on guns,
water quality, tax policy
and timber. Democratic
lawmakers have been
quick to oppose such measures, saying their conservative colleagues have no
problem blasting the federal government for similar
actions.
“I think it’s a real
shame, local control is part
of our heritage,” said Rep.
John Gannon, D-Boise.
“Different communities
have different concerns.”
However, the GOP
supermajority said the
measures are needed to
prevent a mish-mashed set
of laws across the state that
could make it difficult for
businesses to thrive. Both
pre-emption bills introduced this year are being
pushed by business interest groups.
“Some of the things you
see being pushed by interest groups is to make their
job a little easier,” said
Jaclyn Kettler, an assistant professor of political science at Boise State
University. “It’s becoming
a big trend.”
Furthermore,
statehouses have become
more Republican in recent
years, which can conflict
with the pockets of progressive cities inside state
lines. Currently, Idaho is
one of the 24 states totally
controlled by Republicans
in which they hold the
governor’s seat and both
chambers of the state legislature. It’s also one of
the 30 Legislatures with
Republican-dominated
chambers, according to
the National Conference
of State Legislatures.
“Increasingly for cities,
you see Democrats voted
into local office,” Kettler
said. “So they’ve been battling the state for control.”
For example, one of
Idaho’s perennial legislative debates has cen-

Retirement:
Maybe not what
it used to be
Not that long ago, retirement for almost everyone
meant the end of that daily commute and free time to
take up hobbies, travel or simply enjoying life at home.
While many retirees are still doing such things, there
has also been a considerable change in how and when
people retire.
Some of that is due to financial necessity. The age to
collect Social Security benefits has risen and the private
retirement savings of many were reduced by the recession of 2008, which also helped lower the value of
many homes, most folks’ biggest financial investment.
But it isn’t always financial factors that have kept millions of Americans over the age of 65 in the workforce.
For many, the reality of retirement can be challenging, even frightening. Retirement usually means losing
or limiting contact with former colleagues. It can also
make one feel like there is less direction to one’s life.
Whatever one’s job, there was always things to be
accomplished, even with self-set goals. With retirement
such goals can disappear. A person may also feel a loss
of identity since he or she is no longer a teacher, or an
office manager or whatever the profession was.
For some people none of that is a problem, but for
others it’s helpful to take steps to ease the way into
retirement. If money and emotional issues are going
to be a problem, part-time work might bridge the gap.
Car services such as Uber and Lyft now provide many
older drivers a means to earn extra money while staying
active and involved with people.
Or past work experience might be helpful to a local
business as a part-time employee or as a consultant.
And if extra money isn’t your motivation, volunteer
opportunities are always available with local schools,
libraries, city governments, senior centers and civic
groups.
Is staying active in retirement a good idea? It sure is,
whether it’s continuing to work or taking up a hobby.
Staying active can help you feel productive and give
direction to your retirement years. And it may even help
you stay healthier and avoid elderly disabilities, according to several studies.
If facing retirement is something that has you nervous
and scared, you might also consider visiting a professional counselor. A counselor can help you examine the
options open to you, and can assist you in understanding your feelings, desires and goals for your retirement.

Understanding the ‘Bernie Bros’
Sometimes I think I
learned more politically
relevant lessons playing
ball than anywhere else. If
nothing else, sports teach
realism: what you can do,
what you can’t, how to
deal with it. Also, what’s
the score, how much
time’s left, and what’s the
best tactic right now?
It helps to know the
rules, and it’s important to
keep your head. Bad plays
are inevitable, dumb plays
less forgivable.
But here’s something
else you learn playing ball:
Not everybody on your
team is going to be your
friend, just as people wearing different-colored shirts
aren’t personal enemies.
Also, spectators can be
fickle. Your most passionate fans can quickly turn
into your opponent’s ally.
These are all useful concepts during an American
primary election.
An athlete in his youth,
Bernie Sanders appears to
understand overwrought
fans. His campaign’s apology to Hillary Clinton supporters harassed online by
so-called “Bernie Bros,”
angry young men given to
coarse attacks upon anybody -- especially women
-- supporting his rival was
a class move.
“If you support @berniesanders,” Sanders aide
Mike Casca tweeted from
Iowa, “please follow the
senator’s lead and be
respectful when people
disagree with you.”
Columnist Joan Walsh
had called out the Bernie
Bros’ behavior. “When I’ve
disclosed that my daughter
works for Clinton -- in The
Nation, on MSNBC, and
on social media -- we’ve
both come in for trolling so
vile,” she wrote, “it’s made
me not merely defensive of
her. It’s forced me to recognize how little society
respects the passion of the
many young women -- and
men -- who are putting
their souls into electing the
first female president.”
Walsh told BuzzFeed
that, while she didn’t blame
Sanders, “it is disturbing
to see such a misogynist
strain in the male left. It’s
not a new thing, but it’s
tough to experience.”
Kathleen Geier, a contributor to The Nation and
a Sanders supporter, concedes the Bernie Bros are
definitely “doing harm to
the cause. I haven’t seen
people treat Obama supporters like this, or supporters of other male
establishment candidates
-- just Hillary. So it’s definitely misogyny.”
Well, yes and no. See, I
suspect many of these jokers are Internet trolls in the
original sense: right-wing
Hillary-haters seeking to
foment discord among
Democrats.
Anybody can pretend
to be anything online.
Anonymity encourages
people to unmask their
darkest impulses. Read the
comments line to almost
anything on the Internet
about the Clinton-Sanders
campaign.
Even in the relatively
civilized precincts of The
Guardian, commenters to
a Jill Abramson column
sympathetic to Clinton
revel in nasty sexual
insults:
“Yes, please tell me how
Shillary is the nicest corporate oligarchical servant,
and how she will lovingly
sell out the people who
voted for her to her banker
masters, with a twinkle in
her fellating eye.”
Another online philosopher opines that, “she
can’t be good for a nation
if she wasn’t good enough
for her husband.”
A third adds that,
“Hillary is a terrible campaigner and a much worse
human being. She is thoroughly corrupt, dishonest,
vile, vindictive, vengeful,
condescending, etc.”
As somebody who’s gotten obscene, often threatening emails WRITTEN IN
ALL CAPS for years, I can’t
say I’m shocked. Recently
a tough guy in Illinois
speculated that being
named “Eugene” made me
a sissy.
All in a day’s work.
Anyway, maybe I’m
looking in the wrong places, but I see no comparable venom about Bernie
Sanders. My own strongest
reservation is that despite
his admirable qualities,
I’ve seen few signs of political realism in his campaign.
As baseball people
say, there’s no such thing
as a six-run home run.
How otherwise sensible
Democrats have persuaded themselves that a candidate preaching “revolution” and promising big
tax increases can win
come November in swing
states like Ohio, Michigan,
and Florida -- places that
have trended Democratic,
but have Republican governors -- is hard for me to
grasp.
(Unless, of course, the
GOP nominates a far-right
Froot Loop like Ted Cruz
-- not a probability I’d want
to gamble on.)
The Daily Banter’s Chez
Pazienza sums up everything that needs to be said
about “Bernie Bros,” makebelieve and real: “If you’re
a liberal who believes
these things about Clinton
-- if you see her as anything other than a liberal
Democrat who’s guilty of
nothing more than being
a politician with faults and
with a plethora of enemies
like every other on this
planet, including Bernie
Sanders -- you’ve proven
that the protracted smear
campaign against this
woman has worked. You
prove that the GOP won a
long time ago.”
Meanwhile, both candidates’ supporters would
do well to recall that
Bernie Sanders and Hillary
Clinton have voted together in the U.S. Senate 93
percent of the time.

Country Star
Terri Clark to
perform at ISU
POCATELLO — Terri
Clark will putting on a
show with Aaron Tippin’
at Idaho State University’s
Stephens Performing Arts
Center Feb. 25 at 7:30 p.m.
“I hope people leave
having the greatest time
they have ever had that’s
my goal,” Clark said. “I
want people to forget their
cares and worries of the
world for a short time.”
The show is sure to
be unique for Clark fans
because she will be performing solo without the
band.
“If anybody has seen
me play with the band
and they enjoyed that then
they are going to get a
completely different show
when I am by myself,”
Clark said. “It’s very personable lots of talking, lots
of joking, sometimes I will
get the audience involved
you’re going to hear a lot
of familiar songs with a
completely different experience.”
Recently in the country
music industry men have
had a bigger breakthroughs
than women, but Clark is
encouraging young aspiring women not to give up.
“Find somebody who
believes in you to help
you,” Clark said. “Keep
your nose to the grindstone, be unique and don’t
be afraid to be yourself
and who you are. We are
so unique as individuals
we have to be who we
are and bring our most
authentic self to the table.”
Clark grew up in Canada
and has been around
instruments her entire life.
Both her Grandma Betty
and Grandpa Ray Gauthier
were country stars who
opened for country music
stars George Jones and
Johnny Cash. At the age of
nine Clark’s mother taught
her, her first three chords
on guitar. In her free time
Clark enjoys outdoor
activities such as fishing,
boating and golfing. She
has her own cottage getaway in Canada for when
Tennessee gets too hot.
Clark looks to past
country stars and musicians for inspiration with
her own work. She does
not have a favorite song
because they all mean a
lot to her.
“I don’t necessarily
have a favorite song I think
that they all mean different
things to me and different people,” Clark said.

HAILEY
(AP)
—
Officials in central Idaho
are moving toward creating an ordinance banning
an ornamental plant that
has killed at least 20 wild
elk that ate it.
The Idaho Mountain
Express reports that Blaine
County commissioners on
Tuesday directed Deputy
Prosecuting Attorney Tim
Graves to draft an ordinance banning the selling and planting of yew
shrubs.
The ordinance will
also require homeowners
to remove existing yew
shrubs.
Graves says the county
has the authority to prohibit the plants after a
finding by the commissioners that they are a
public health hazard.
Graves says that the
nonnative plants are toxic
to most animals and people.
He also says the ordinance would likely be an
amendment to the county’s noxious weed ordinance.

Are there different types
of public notices?
Yes. There are many types of notices in statute
and governing documents of political entities.
Simply put, there are two basic types—
Warning Notices and Accountability Notices.
Warning notices inform you when government,
or a private party authorized by government,
is about to do something that may affect your
life, liberty or pursuit of happiness. Warning
notices typically run more than once over
a long period of time. This gives citizens an
opportunity to comment, object or respond.
Accountability notices are designed to
make sure citizens know details about their
government. These notices generally run one
time only, but are there in black and white,
unchanging and archived for everyone to
see. Accountability is a key to efficiency in
government.

government as well as events occurring in

Earthworks won the status
in both lawsuits filed last
fall. A third lawsuit was
filed last week by Utah’s
governor and legislature
repeating claims that the
land use planning amendments impose unnecessary
restrictions on activities in
or near grouse habitat.
Those activities range
from livestock grazing to
road building and energy
exploration.
The
conservationists agree with the government’s argument that
blocking the regulations
could force reconsideration of Interior Secretary
Sally Jewell’s decision in
September to deny the
bird protection under the
Endangered Species Act.
But they also said they
have many other interests
contrary to those of the
Forest Service and Bureau
of Land Management,
given the agencies’ legal
mandate to manage federal lands for multiple uses.
U.S. District Judge
Miranda Du said in her
ruling in Reno late last
month that such intervention is permitted by anyone with a legal interest in
the property “unless existing parties adequately represent that interest.”
“The court agrees with
(the) conservation groups
that because of their more
narrowed focus (on) environmental protections in
contrast to the agencies’
broader land management
interests,” she said.
She concluded that
the government “may not
adequately represent their
interests.”
Conservationists have
won similar status before
in a number of land
management battles in
Nevada, including disputes over roundups of
wild mustangs and ownership of a national forest
road in Elko County.
Elko and Eureka counties first filed the lawsuit Sept. 23, along with
Western Exploration LLC
and Quantum Minerals
LLC accusing the Forest
Service and Bureau of
Land Management of illegally adopting the planning amendments in
violation of the National
Environmental Policy Act
and Federal Land Planning
Management Act.
Since then, seven other
counties have joined
the suit. So has Nevada
Attorney General Adam
Laxalt, over the objections of fellow Republican
Gov. Brian Sandoval,
who argues that continued negotiations with the
Interior Department will
prove more productive
than a protracted legal
battle that could last years.
Laura Granier, lead
attorney for the Nevada
plaintiffs, argued the
environmental
groups
shouldn’t be allowed any
formal status in the proceedings because they
have “only made generalized environmental statements which do not rise to
the level of ‘significantly
protectable interests.’”
They “apparently just
seek to argue environmental policy issues,” she said.
But Judge Du disagreed.
She said the Ninth U.S.
Circuit Court of Appeals
“has recognized public
interest groups are generally permitted to intervene where they have
been directly involved in
the enactment of the law
or the administration proceedings out of which the
litigation arose.”
Du noted at least two
of the groups had been
providing public comment and engaged in the
planning amendment process before the Fish and
Wildlife Service first concluded in 2010 that federal
listing of the greater sage
grouse was warranted, but
precluded by higher priority listing actions.
U.S. District Judge
Emmet Sullivan in the D.C.
Circuit made a similar
finding last month. He said
they’d proven they could
“suffer an injury-in-fact” if
the Idaho officials are able
to persuade the court to
set aside the government’s
plans.
Man whose fraud
case prompted
legal changes
gets 4 years
SEATTLE (AP) — A man
whose unauthorized use of
his clients’ money prompted changes in Washington
state law has been sentenced to four years in
prison — even more than
federal prosecutors asked
for.
David Richard Dance,
of Hayden, Idaho, formerly ran a Bellevue,
Washington,
business
known as an “exchange
facilitator.” He held money
for people who had sold
investment properties until
they reinvested that money
in other properties — a
practice that allowed them
to postpone paying taxes
on the sales.
In 2011, without permission, Dance invested
clients’ money in what he
thought were development
projects, including a golf
course. He received payments totaling $150,000
from the purported developer for doing so, prosecutors said.
But Dance himself
wound up being defrauded, and rather than report
the crime to authorities,
he turned his business into
a Ponzi scheme in an illadvised effort to cover up
the losses and repay his
clients.
Ten clients lost more
than $3.2 million in all,
in some cases their life
savings. One of the victims, retired cattle ranch-
er Howard Asmussen, of
Pateros, blamed his wife’s
death on the stress.
The case prompted
Washington
lawmakers to tighten oversight of
exchange facilitators in
2012. Among other things,
the legislation required
that any withdrawals from
escrow accounts holding
exchange funds be authenticated by the client as
well as the facilitator.
“At the end of our
lives, we was robbed of
$850,000 by a white-collared criminal,” Asmussen
told a Senate committee
in 2012. “This is something we worked our life
at. We’re not capable of
starting over again. We

Hope springs eternal in the DLeague, even for All-Stars
TORONTO (AP) —
Only a few miles from
the site of Sunday’s NBA
All-Star Game, before a
couple thousand people in
an arena primarily used to
play minor-league hockey,
Jimmer Fredette couldn’t
help but think big.
And he hopes his second chance — or more
accurately, his sixth chance
— is still coming.
Such is the mentality
of the NBA Development
League, which held its AllStar Game on Saturday in
Toronto on the same floor
where LeBron James, Steph
Curry and Kobe Bryant
practiced a couple hours
earlier. There was symmetry in that being in the
shadow of the big league’s
All-Star weekend almost
served as a reminder to
the D-League’s best that
the NBA might not be as
far from their reach as they
sometimes think.
“You’re always hopeful,” said Fredette, the MVP
of Saturday’s D-League
game in which the Eastern
Conference squad beat
its Western Conference
counterparts
128-124.
“Everybody in this league,
that’s what their dream is.
They want to get back or
into the NBA, or further
their career. That’s what
this league is for, and I’m
no different.”
Well, he sort of is.
Fredette was the No.
10 pick by the Milwaukee
Bucks in the 2011 draft, not
long after “Jimmermania”
swept college basketball
when he was the NCAA
player of the year as a
senior at BYU. He was
traded to Sacramento on
draft night, played in 179
games for the Kings before
being waived and has had
stints since with Chicago,
New Orleans twice, and
San Antonio.
Right now, he’s posting
impressive numbers (22.6
points, 4.8 assists) with the
Westchester Knicks in the
D-League. Someone, he
thinks, might notice.
“They want to see fight,”
Fredette said.
More than half of
the players in Saturday’s
D-League game have
some NBA experience, the
league has a record 19
teams right now — with at
least three more planned
in the coming years — and
the stigma that accompanies going to the minors
seems to be diminishing
over time.
It is becoming the
true feeder league that
the NBA always envi-
sioned.
“I think it’s all attitude and your mindset,”
said Tyus Jones of the
Minnesota Timberwolves,
a first-round NBA draft pick
in 2015 who spent some
time in the D-League. “If
you look at it as an opportunity to play and work on
things in a game setting,
then you’re going to make
the most of it. If you look
at it as ‘Why do I have
to go down there and I
shouldn’t have to and this
isn’t fair,’ then you’re not
going to get as good of
results as you can.”

Hi & Lois
Timing will be important
this year. Pace yourself and
show more discipline when
working toward your goals.
A lack of moderation will be
cause for alarm. Organization
and preparation will spare
you from making mistakes.
Make love a priority and
kindness a reality.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
19) -- Don’t concern yourself with what others think.
Take a pass when it comes
to negative people and situations. What counts is how
you feel about your actions.
Be true to yourself.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March
20) -- Observe everything
and study your opponent’s
every move. Being prepared
to win will help you make
good decisions and carry out
your plans with dignity.
ARIES (March 21-April

need, you will affect the outcome of a life-altering situation. You can bring about big
change.

to yourself. Unwisely sharing
information could upset your

Dear Annie: Twenty
five years ago, my youngest son, then 18, quit the

years. They had promised

18, but did not follow
through. After that, he
would not look for a job
or even help around the
house. His dad told him to
leave, but I let him return.
Still, my son continued to
do nothing, so his father
insisted he get out. His
father had a terrible temper
and we both knew it. We
were afraid of him.
I knew my son was
sleeping in his car, so
whenever I saw him, I
would give him food and
blankets. I also left the
back door unlocked so
that when his father wasn't
home, he could get into
the house, warm up and
eat.
I know now that my son
was depressed, but I didn't
realize it at the time. Over
the years, I kept track of his
whereabouts, but he would
never speak to me except
in anger. He married two

DEAR READER: Strokes
can cause significant problems. People can have difficulty moving (like your mother). They can have trouble
speaking or understanding
speech. They can have trouble thinking. Being suddenly
hit with any or all of those
losses would depress anyone -- including people who
never suffered from depression before.
About one in four people
who’ve had a stroke develop
major depression. In part, this
is a reaction to the terrible
losses caused by a stroke. But
you’re right that the injury
to the brain from the stroke
can itself cause changes in
brain chemistry that lead to
depression.
In other words, depression
following a stroke can be
similar to depression following another major illness that
affects a person’s life but does
not injure the brain -- such as
a heart attack or cancer. But
it also can be caused by the
brain injury itself.

is the least of her problems.
But the mental anguish of
depression isn’t a minor concern. Left untreated, depression can undermine efforts
at rehabilitation and worsen
cognitive disabilities.
Depression after a stroke
is associated with poorer outcomes a year after the stroke
has occurred. It’s also associated with a higher death rate
in subsequent years.
Fortunately, antidepressants seem to be fairly effective. In 2008, scientists published a review of the research
in this area. They concluded
that the medications had a
“small but significant” effect
on post-stroke depression.
What’s more, the benefits
of antidepressants may not be
limited to relieving depression; they may positively
affect areas and networks
in the brain that improve
other impaired functions
as well. Studies have found

Mother
Dear Florida: Abusive
home situations are complicated.
Your son blames you
for not protecting him
from his angry father, but
you felt helpless and, like
too many abused women,
chose to remain with your
husband. Many kids live
independently at age 18,
but due to depression, your
son was not ready and
ended up in his car — a
risky situation and one that
made him feel abandoned
and unloved.
You cannot change
the past. Until your son
is ready to move forward,
there is little you can do.
Ask your other children
to let their brother know
how sorry you are and that
you crave his forgiveness
while there is still time.
Unfortunately, there are no
guarantees. We hope you
can find solace in your
other children.

with a sound and practical
approach to life will help
you bypass people who are
unable to make a decision.
Trust and believe in yourself.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)
-- If you execute your ideas
with precision, you will
attract interest in what you
are trying to accomplish.
Change can be good if you
go about it the right way.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
22) -- Take a creative route
to reach your destination.
Venture outside the normal
parameters in order to find a
clear passage to reach your
established goal. Progressive
action will pay off.
SAGITTARIUS
(Nov.
23-Dec. 21) -- Collaborations
look promising if you set
guidelines and strive for
equality. Don’t be afraid to
make a last-minute change.
You will persuade others to
think your way.
CAPRICORN

chance to increase your
awareness while expanding
your interests will open a
window of opportunity.
in combination with physical therapy, can help with
recovery from stroke-induced
paralysis, muscle weakness
and overall disability.
If you haven’t already done
so, talk to your mother’s doctor about her depression. Ask
the doctor to recommend a
psychiatrist who has experience working with stroke
patients, or find out if there is
a mental health professional
affiliated with your mother’s
rehab program.
Treatment of stroke has
improved greatly in this
country. Some people who
would have died or been
severely disabled can now do
quite well. That’s due, in part,
to powerful drugs that can
quickly open blocked blood
vessels in the brain.
More recently, stents that
grasp and remove the blood
clots that are blocking blood
flow to the brain have been
found to be effective. They
more than double the chance
that a patient with a stroke
will become functionally
independent.
Doctors who concentrate
on deploying all of these
new treatments available
for patients with stroke can
sometimes neglect to recognize and treat depression.
If you think that might be
happening with your mother,
raise that issue with her doctor.
