First-graders learn to save
By LESLIE SIEGER
[email protected]
BLACKFOOT — All
first grade students, in the
Blackfoot school district,
and their parents are invited to the Blackfoot Saves
First open house from 6-7
p.m. Wednesday at the
Blackfoot Performing Arts
Center (BPAC).
“Financial institutions
will have tables set up in
the foyer of the BPAC,”
said Curriculum director
Joy Mickelsen. “No money
will exchange hands
Wednesday. Some banks
will match the “seed”
money and some will pay
for grades.”
Mayor Loomis will
speak to the parents and
students about the city’s
participation in the program. Other speakers will
speak about the importance of going to college
and saving for college.
“We want to encourage students to think about
college beginning in the
first grade,” said Blackfoot
Mayor Paul Loomis.
First grade students in
the Blackfoot school district have been learning
the value of saving money
to secure their future.
First grade teachers, in
the Blackfoot school district, have been teaching
the students lessons such
as “we have wants” and
“choices, costs and benefits.” The lesson we have
wants teaches the students
how to identify a “want”
and how to prioritize their
wants. The lesson plans
include a question of the
day that sets the focus for
the lesson.
Word wall cards are
also used to teach economic vocabulary that is
used in the lessons.

Looming deadline for nuclear waste plant, future in limbo
IDAHO FALLS, Idaho
(AP) — A darkened central
control room with more
than 25 computer screens
watches over nearly everything occurring inside this
radioactive waste treatment plant west of Idaho
Falls.
The room is where
employees at the Advanced
Mixed Waste Treatment
Project, or AMWTP, monitor and manipulate the
facility’s dangerous waste
treatment process from
afar. Decades-old metal
boxes and drums filled
with radioactive waste
travel through a series of
conveyor belts and elevators. At various stages the
waste is remotely sorted,
repackaged, smashed up,
and then packaged again.
A final product of multiple
55-gallon drums is shipped
on trucks to waste repositories located in New
Mexico, Nevada and Utah.
The facility — which
employs about 700 and
has operated for more than
a dozen years — is undergoing an approximately
$10 million overhaul.
Officials hope the new
infrastructure will help finish the job of treating some
65,000 cubic meters of
Idaho’s transuranic nuclear
waste before a looming
2018 deadline.
Meanwhile,
U.S.
Department of Energy officials are pondering what
to do with the specialized plant once its cur-
rent mission is complete.
One tentative post-2018
plan would mean shipping
nuclear waste to the Idaho
facility from DOE sites
spread around the country. The waste would be
treated and packaged here,
then sent onward to a final
resting place outside the
state.
“There is no other
capability like Advanced
Mixed Waste in the DOE
complex,” said Dave
Richardson, the project’s
manager for contractor
Idaho Treatment Group.
He said its infrastructure is
worth about $1 billion.
“The question is, what
do you want to do with
this facility?”
The AMWTP was built to
treat 65,000 cubic meters
of transuranic waste that
was buried nearby in the
Arco desert in the 1970s
and ‘80s. It came from the
now-closed Rocky Flats
Plant near Denver, where
nuclear weapon compo-
nents were made.
Held in slowly deteriorating metal, wooden
and fiberglass boxes and
metal drums, the waste
includes tools, rags, clothing, sludge and dirt — anything contaminated with a
transuranic element, such
as plutonium, during the
weapon-making process.
Workers at the facility
have been chipping away
at the massive pile of waste
for years. It’s a painfully

ICCU named best
place to work in Idaho
CHUBBUCK — On
Thursday, April 14, Idaho
Central Credit Union
(ICCU) was named as
the Best Place to Work in
Idaho in the large corporation category for the fourth
year in a row.
Winners were selected
from an employee satisfaction survey conducted by a
marketing and research
firm. This is the ninth year
for the program and they
reported a record number
of entries.
Participating organization’s employees take a
confidential survey that
covers the following topics: compensation and
benefits, work environment, company management, employee growth
and development, and
work-life balance. The
businesses that score in the
top ten in each category
are named the Best Places
to Work in Idaho.
“We love and care about
our team members. This is
what enables them to provide world class service to
our members. This award
is such an honor because
it shows that we’re doing
something right,” said Kent
Oram, ICCU President.
Last month, S&P Global
Market Intelligence also
ranked Idaho Central
Credit Union the number
one best-performing credit
union in the nation for the
fourth year in a row.

Blackfoot Fire Capt. Branden Wall reads to Kalyse Baker, age 8, in the second grade at the Groveland Elementary Book
Fair on Monday evening. Who gets to read the book first? Twin brothers Kyle (on left) and Brandon Christensen, age 10,
who are in fifth grade at Stuart Elementary in Shelley have a bit of a tug of war at the Book Fair at Groveland Elementary
on Monday evening.
UNIQUE, continued from 1A
es. There are also
antiques, handmade jewelry, clothing and cosignment items. “I did not
want a thrift store, I wanted a higher quality than
that. A group of people
once came in looking for
antiques, but I did not have
any at the time. A few
days later, a lovely woman
brought in a vintage Singer
sewing machine and then
another showed up and
asked if she could cosign
some other antique items.”
The store is Fred’s first
retail endeavor after years
of making crafts while liv-
ing in Fort Hall. “I was
apprehensive and scared
at first,” she said. “So I
held a kind of soft opening
to see how things would
go. Finally, I was confident enough and decided
to have a Grand Opening
(Thursday at 11:45 a.m.). I
wanted to bring a source of
peace and happiness. For
me it’s all about home.”
The store’s hours are
Tuesday-Friday, 11:30 a.m.
to 6 p.m. and Saturday, 10
a.m. to 3 p.m. For more

are about 12,000 cubic
meters still to get through.
All the waste is supposed
to be treated and shipped
out of Idaho by the end
of 2018 under a state
deadline laid out in the
1995 Idaho Settlement
Agreement with the DOE.
But the DOE and Idaho
Treatment Group have run
into recent problems. A
New Mexico waste repository where much of the
waste needs to be sent
remains closed after an
accident last year. That
means about 20,000
ready-to-ship containers
of waste have stacked up,
with nowhere to go.
In addition, officials
said the plant is starting
to get worn down, with
more frequent repairs
costing time that should’ve
been spent treating waste.
Richardson
said
he
brought the problem up
with DOE officials last
year.
“My point to DOE was,
you’ve got to invest some
money here, because
you’ve got a sprint to
the finish line to get to
the milestone agreement
in December 2018,”
Richardson said.
The biggest upgrade
for the facility — costing
about $4 million — is the
replacement of two big
remote-controlled robotic
arms. The arms are operated in adjacent rooms by
workers using joysticks.
They sort through waste,
sometimes chopping it
into more manageable
pieces, before repackaging it into new containers.
The robotic devices were
recently shipped to Idaho
from the Swedish company Brokk.
The current robotic
arms were needing to be
fixed more and more, said
Mike Auble, a senior project manager overseeing
the upgrades. It’s no easy
or cheap task when repairs
are needed in a highly
radioactive area, he said.
Every time one of the
robotic arms or another
component broke down, a
worker would dress up in
an astronaut-like protective suit connected to an
oxygen line and go into
the contaminated area to
try and fix the problem.
Considering all the safety
logistics, Auble said, each
entry cost about $7,000.
Last year there were about
1,000 such entries — $7
million worth — to fix
problems with the robotic
arms and other equipment.
A number of other pieces of infrastructure will
soon be replaced inside
the facility, too, from conveyor belts, to elevators
and new hardware and
software.
Auble said despite nearing completion of waste
treatment, the millions of
dollars in upgrades were
necessary. The last batch
of waste to be treated will
be particularly demanding,
he said. Much of the waste
still to go is the radioactive
remnants of a 1969 fire at
Rocky Flats. It includes big
chunks of contaminated
metals, wood, plastic and
other radioactive material.
“While the end is in
sight, it is by no means
easy,” he said. “This is the
hardest waste to process.”
Whenever the current
pile of radioactive waste
is gone, the DOE must
decide what to do next
with the facility.
Considering it is the
only plant of its kind in
the U.S. — there is a similar version in the United
Kingdom — there may be
reason to keep it around.
Sinking millions of federal dollars into AMWTP
now won’t hurt its longterm prospects, either,
something contractor officials are well aware of.
If the facility were to
continue treating waste,
where would it come
from? Mostly the Hanford
Site in Washington and
Los Alamos National
Laboratory
in
New
Mexico, along with lesser
amounts from handful of
other DOE sites, according to a DOE PowerPoint
presentation on the subject. Those two sites have
more than 25,000 cubic
meters of waste that could
be treated at AMWTP, the
presentation said, which
could keep the facility running for years.
The Idaho Settlement
Agreement requires the
current transuranic waste
to leave the state by the
end of 2018. But waste
from elsewhere is allowed
to enter the state — and
long as it is treated and
shipped out within one
year. Treating waste from
DOE sites outside the state
has already been done several times at the facility.
There could end up
being significant opposition to a life extension for
the facility, said Beatrice
Brailsford, nuclear program director for the
watchdog group Snake
River Alliance. Many
Idahoans don’t have much
trust in the DOE when it
comes to nuclear waste,
she said. As an example,
she said, spent nuclear
fuel shipped here over the
years hasn’t left.
“Fundamentally, I think
most people in Idaho are
nervous about waste coming in,” Brailsford said.
On a recent lobbying
trip to Washington, D.C.,
local mayors and economic development officials
encouraged DOE to keep
the facility up and running, considering it provides hundreds of local
jobs. The Idaho National
Laboratory Site Citizens
Advisory Board also issued
a letter to the department
in late 2014, saying it was
in favor of keeping the
plant running.
“AMWTP has already
proven it can be a national
asset by receiving and processing transuranic waste
from 13 different DOE site
offices across the country,”
the letter said.
NUCLEAR, continued from 1A
slow process that since
2011 has been handled
by Idaho Treatment Group.
This summer a new government contractor, Fluor,
will take over management
of the job, along with other
waste cleanup duties on
the desert site.
Richardson said there

The pursuit
of talent
Everywhere
I
go,
I hear about the talent
shortage facing American Jeff
workplaces. The existing Hough
workforce is aging and
the new group coming in
has a different approach
to working than previous
generations. Yet, teaching
college students during the past semester, I can’t help
but be impressed with the talent I saw.
In class I saw the usual stratification of talent. There
were the hard-working over-achievers and there were
those doing just enough to get by. Yet as I pushed the
class and challenged their abilities, they constantly rose
to the challenge and completed assignments with creativity and flair.
After reviewing an amazing presentation by some
marketing students, I reflected on the efforts of businesses and communities to attract the type of talent I
witnessed. The student’s presentation demonstrated a
work ethic that supposedly is non-existent and a commitment to excellence that would serve any company
well.
The need to recruit and retain good talent isn’t new.
Employers say it is more difficult than ever because
the millennial generation is so different and the rules
of the game seem to change daily. Communities seeking to attract talent for existing businesses are often at
a loss because they aren’t sure what it is that attracts
the younger generation. Everyone likes to tout quality
of life, but that means something different to everyone.
For businesses and communities to survive and grow,
a concerted joint effort is needed. Since the rules seem
to change constantly, it is time to think differently. The
challenging part is trying to balance the needs of the
older generation which likes things the way they are—
or the way there were 20 years ago—and the needs of
the new generation.
A survey completed by Australian Human Resource
Consulting firm Drake International reveals some key
elements for recruiting today’s talent. Of the 400 candidates interviewed in the study, 89 percent said that
training and development opportunities were their
number one consideration when looking at a company.
Number two on the list was pay and benefits, while
a close third was having an enjoyable environment.
Rounding out the top priorities of potential candidates
was the opportunity for flexible hours.
Having an enjoyable environment and flexible hours
are “squishy” topics. Trying to understand what enjoyable environment and flexible hours means to each
individual can drive HR managers crazy. Does an
enjoyable environment mean a company kitchen that is
open all the time, a recreation center where employees
can go to relax or an environment where stress doesn’t
exist? Flexible hours is another discussion point that has
no solid definition.
While not every company can create a fun environment like the high-tech offices, there are things that
can be done to make any workplace enjoyable. One of
the first things is offering leadership training to existing
managers and supervisors. During a recent training session of seasoned leaders in a manufacturing company,
those with over 20 years of experience had less than 30
hours of formal leadership training. It is tough to create
the right environment when leadership doesn’t understand the fundamentals of effective communication nor
have the tools to deal effectively with people. The next
thing that can be done is to create the right culture.
If the right culture is established (for example, one in
which the employee has a voice and the opportunity for
self-expression and creativity) the word will get out and
your employees will be your greatest recruiters.
For communities to compete they need to become
well-rounded, offering a variety of activities which
appeal to a diverse group of individuals. Even with tight
budgets, getting creative in the approach to solving
work-life balance is key to attracting the kind of talent
that makes a community better.
The battle to recruit talented individuals and families
is fierce. Companies and communities everywhere are
looking for ways to solve their talent shortages. Those
who think differently and seek innovative ways to set
themselves apart will be successful in solving this challenging problem.

Groupthink
People generally take
comfort in consensus.
Typically, no one wants to
be the only person in the
room to express a contrary opinion. After all it is
a common saying, “There
is safety in numbers.” But
there can be times when
consensus can be lethal.
Several decades ago leaders in business and social
science began to notice
that coworkers sometimes
ignored certain courses of
action to maintain a sense
of harmony in their organization — a phenomenon
known as groupthink.
Groupthink can mean:
• Poor group decision
making.
• Excessive optimism
about the group or organization.
• Censorship of members with differing views.
• Ignoring information
which conflicts with the
group’s conclusions.
• The inability to evaluate hazards and weaknesses of the chosen course of
action.
• Bias in researching
options.
• Failure to fully evaluate plan objectives.
• Belief that the group’s
intellect and ability is superior to everyone else.
Groupthink can be
caused several factors —
loyalty among them. While
loyalty is almost always a
virtue, excessive loyalty is
not when it comes to making decisions. Many times
employees feel obligated,
out of sense of loyalty, to
support certain plans and
policies even if they have
their own doubts.
Even past success can
cause groupthink by creating an atmosphere and the
assumption that an organization or its leadership is
always right because they
have been right in the past.
Isolation from facts or
other opinions can lead to
groupthink. That is what
occurred a century ago on
the Titanic. Capt. Edward
Smith and White Star Line
Managing Director Bruce
Ismay falsely believed the
company’s press releases
that the Titanic was unsinkable. Ismay and Smith’s
confidence in the invincible nature of the ship were
shared by the officers, crew
and even the passengers.
The night the Titanic
sank other nearby ships
had ether stopped or
greatly slowed their speed
because of the numerous
icebergs, But the Titanic
rushed forward at breakneck speed in an attempt to
get to New York City ahead
of schedule.
On the bridge of the
Titanic, numerous ice
warnings were ignored by
the captain and the other
officers. There was not
even a pair of binoculars
in the ship’s crow’s nest,
which could have been
used to spot the iceberg
well before the Titanic
struck it.
Groupthink also likely
prevented the Titanic from
having sufficient lifeboats
aboard. The ship’s owners felt the boats were not
needed, and the additional
boats would hamper the
view of passengers.
This groupthink spread
to the passengers, and
many failed to board lifeboats simply because they
believed the ship was
unsinkable.
This misplaced optimism cost many lives.
But groupthink can be
prevented by:
• Making an organizational commitment to consider all possible options.
• Appointing a committee member to act as
a “referee” or a “devil’s
advocate” to ensure all
possibilities are fully considered before a decision is
reached.
• Using multiple committees to consider solutions to the same problem.
• Using a third party
consultant to suggest a
course of action.
• Assigning each member of a committee the task
to comment critically on all
proposed plans of action.
The consequences of
groupthink can be tragic.
Groupthink robs an organization of its most valuable
asset — ideas and intellectual ability. The good news
is that this problem can be
eliminated.

Wildfire rehab effort going well so far in Idaho, Oregon
BOISE, Idaho (AP) —
Scientists say a $67 million
rehabilitation effort following a wildfire in southwest Idaho and southeast
Oregon is starting off well
thanks to good precipitation over the winter.
About $14 million has
been spent since October
as part of a five-year restoration plan to develop
new strategies to combat
increasingly destructive
rangeland wildfires in the
West.
“This fire occurred in an
area that has a lot different terrain, different ecotypes,” said Cindy Fritz, a
natural resource specialist
with the Boise District of
the U.S. Bureau of Land
Management. “There’s a
ton of variety out there
and we’ll be able to see
how our treatments work.”
She said about half of
the $14 million has been
spent on seed and the
other half on labor and
operating costs.
The
new
wildfire
approach ordered by
Interior Secretary Sally
Jewell last year is credited with preventing many
small rangeland wildfires
from getting big. But the
Soda Fire scorched 436
square miles of sagebrush
steppe that supports cattle
grazing and some 350 species of wildlife, including
sage grouse.
Jewell’s order calls for a
“science-based” approach
to safeguard greater sage
grouse while contending with fires that have
been especially destructive
in the Great Basin. The
bird did not receive federal protections under the
Endangered Species Act
last fall, but various efforts
to protect sage grouse habitat have been put in place.
Part of that effort is making sagebrush steppe resistant to wildfire and more
resilient should a wildfire
occur. On-the-ground specifics of how to actually
achieve those goals are
being tested in the areas
scorched by the Soda Fire.
Among the notable dif-
ference with the current
wildfire
rehabilitation
compared to previous
efforts, scientists say, is that
the plan is five years rather
than three.
Another change is
that the plan is adaptive,
meaning that if restoration
efforts appear to be failing in some portion of the
burned area managers can
go back in with another
effort, such as planting
native vegetation.
The BLM has also
partnered with the U.S.
Geological Survey to see
what works. Some 2,000
sample monitoring plots
are being tracked to measure results of techniques
that could become templates for future wildfire
rehabilitation efforts.
“We’ve devised a new
approach to monitoring
that has more sampling
rigor in terms of design
and the intensity of sampling,” said USGS research
ecologist Matt Germino,
who specializes in sage-
brush ecosystems and is
working on the Soda Fire
rehabilitation.
The process includes retreatment triggers if rehabilitation efforts are failing,
continued monitoring of
areas doing well to make
sure progress continues,
and monitoring to determine when cattle grazing
can return. Experts say
returning cattle too soon
could hinder rehabilitation
efforts.
Another
significant
change for Idaho is that a
herbicide is being used that
targets cheatgrass, a fire
prone invasive annual that
displaces native perennials
with wildfire and part of
the reason for the gigantic
size of the Soda Fire.
Around the state
Mountain snow
in SE Idaho
The National Weather
Service has issued a special
weather alert regarding the
several inches of mountain
snow that will likely fall
on parts of Southeast Idaho
Monday night and Tuesday
morning.
Up to eight inches of
snow could fall on the
higher elevations in four
counties — Bear Lake,
Franklin, Oneida and
Cassia.
Temperatures Monday
night through Tuesday
morning are expected to
dramatically drop and this
could result in motorists
encountering slush-covered roads in these counties during the Tuesday
morning commute.
The following mountain passes are expected
to be especially hazardous for motorists:
Malad pass, Emigration
pass, Georgetown summit, Geneva summit and
Sweetzer summit.
Snow is also expected
to fall on the Island Park,
Victor, Driggs, Palisades
and Arco areas but accumulations are expected to
be light and no weather
warnings have been issued
for these communities.
Most of East Idaho’s
towns and cities will
receive rain instead of
snow
Monday
night
through Tuesday morning.
Thunderstorms are also a
possibility.
The weather system
that’s impacting our region
has triggered winter weather advisories in southwest
and south central Idaho
and winter storm warnings
in Nevada. Parts of Utah
and Wyoming will also see
some stormy weather.
Bingham courthouse evacuated
due to chemical
spill
BLACKFOOT,Idaho (AP)
— The Bingham County
Courthouse was temporarily evacuated on Friday
after a chemical spilled
from a boiler pipe, according to local sheriff Craig T.
Rowland.
The non-toxic, but
strong-smelling chemical,
which is used to prevent
pipes from rusting, leaked
while some repairs were
being made, the sheriff said, adding that the
shutoff valve failed. People
were evacuated from the
building for about an hour
while the chemical was
cleaned up.

National Basketball Association
Curry out at least 2 weeks
with sprained right knee
Morning News — Greg Eichelberger
ISU sophomore quarterback Tanner Gueller gets set to hand the ball to a running back
on Saturday at Dave Kragthorpe Classic, the team’s final practice of the spring (which
was later rained out).
ISU quarterback on target
POCATELLO, IdahoAs a three-sport star in
football, basketball and
baseball at WF West
High School in Rochester,
Wash., Tanner Gueller was
raking in the accolades.
He lettered four years in
baseball and three in football and basketball.
When it came time to
decide which sport he
wanted to pursue in college the decision was an
easy one. It was going to
be football.
“There is something just
different about football,”
Gueller said. “There are
only 12 games you get to
play. There is something
special about a Friday
night or a Saturday and
being able to take the field
once a week. There is a
brotherhood in football
that there is not anywhere
else. The best part is the
moments with the team.”
Gueller’s decision to
focus on football was right
on as he passed for 4,000
yards and 57 touchdowns
while also running for
1,332 yards and 12 touchdowns.
With the success at
WF West, opportunities to
play collegiately presented
itself and when Idaho State
jumped in the picture, the
decision on where to go
was easy.
“As I talked to coach
Kramer you could tell he
is a program builder and
that he has a clear direc-
tion of where he wants to
go,” Gueller said. “When
I came on my visit I really
liked how close everyone
was and the unity that was
on the team. We do everything with each other. I
could see that on my visit
and I really liked it.”
Gueller redshirted during the 2014 season and
in 2015 he started games
vs. Sacramento State,
Montana and Weber State.
He appeared in 10 games
during the season. The
Bengal quarterback threw
five touchdown passes for
855 yards as a redshirt
freshman.
While the season had
its ups and downs, Gueller
remained positive and
relied on people who are
close to him, his family,
especially his older brother
Mitch who was a drafted
54th by the Philadelphia
Phillies.
“Once he (Mitch) graduated the biggest thing is
he has helped me with is
handling things mentally,”
Gueller said. “That is what
separates people. You have
to be mentally strong. His
first couple of years he
went through some ups
and downs. He ended up
being able to help me with
that a lot, especially this
past season.”
Gueller said his brother
has been his role model
his entire life.
“He has been my best
friend since I was born,”
Gueller said. “I hated him
at times when he was kicking my butt on the court.
He used to beat me in
everything. It was always
really competitive.”
Gueller enters his
sophomore season as the
starting quarterback. Its an
opportunity that he relishes and with that he knows
he has to continue to work
hard to make himself and
the team better.
“It is a dream come
true,” the Bengal signal
caller said. “It has been
something I have wanted
to do. You always picture
these days but for it to
actually happen is better
than I could ever imagine.”
Gueller has put in the
time with the receivers
to perfect timing and he
admits that he has become
more confident and “comfortable in my own skin.”
He said that while he
struggled in 2015 he is
grateful for the film he has
now to study of him in live
action.
“I just have gotten
more comfortable with the
guys and a thing is different this year is our timing
and understanding of how
everyone runs the routes.”
Gueller and the Bengals
closed out spring practices
on Saturday with the Dave
Kragthorpe Classic, which
was rained out at the half,
but it did not prevent the
QB from completing 10
passes off 15 attempts.
National Football League
Brady must serve ‘Deflategate’ penalty
NEW YORK (AP) — New
England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady must serve
a four-game “Deflategate”
suspension imposed by
the NFL, a federal appeals
court ruled Monday, overturning a lower judge and
siding with the league in
a battle with the players
union.
A three-judge panel
of the 2nd U.S. Circuit
Court of Appeals in
Manhattan ruled 2-to-1
that Commissioner Roger
Goodell did not deprive
Brady of “fundamental fairness” with his procedural
rulings. The split decision
may end the legal debate
over the scandal that led
to months of football fans
arguing over air pressure
and the reputation of one
of the league’s top teams.
It also fuels a fresh
round of debate over what
role, if any, the quarterback and top NFL star
played in using underinflated footballs at the AFC
championship game in
January 2015. The Patriots
won the contest over the
Indianapolis Colts, 45-7,
and then won the Super
Bowl.
Soon after the ruling,
Republican presidential
candidate Donald Trump
opened a campaign rally
in Rhode Island by sticking
up for Brady, a longtime
friend and golfing buddy.
“First of all let’s start
by saying leave Tom Brady
alone. Leave him alone.
Leave him alone he’s a
great guy,” Trump said. “It’s
enough. It’s enough.”
The ruling can be
appealed to the full 2nd
Circuit or to the U.S.
Supreme Court, but it
would likely be a steep
and time-consuming climb
even if the courts took the
unusual step to consider it.
In a majority opinion written by Judge
Barrington D. Parker, the
2nd Circuit said its review
of labor arbitration awards
“is narrowly circumscribed
and highly deferential —
indeed, among the most
deferential in the law.”
“Our role is not to
determine for ourselves
whether Brady participated in a scheme to deflate
footballs or whether the
suspension imposed by the
Commissioner should have
been for three games or
five games or none at all.
Nor is it our role to second-guess the arbitrator’s
procedural rulings,” the
opinion said. “Our obligation is limited to determining whether the arbitration proceedings and
award met the minimum
legal standards established
by the Labor Management
Relations Act.”
The 2nd Circuit said the
contract between players
and the NFL gave the commissioner authority that
was “especially broad.”
“Even if an arbitrator
makes mistakes of fact or
law, we may not disturb
an award so long as he
acted within the bounds of
his bargained-for authority,” the court said.
In a dissent, Chief Judge
Robert Katzmann said
Goodell failed to even
consider a “highly rele-
vant” alternative penalty.
“I am troubled by the
Commissioner’s decision
to uphold the unprecedented four-game suspension,”
Katzmann said. “It is ironic
that a process designed to
ensure fairness to all players has been used unfairly
against one player.”
The
NFL
Players
Association said in a statement it was disappointed.
“We fought Roger
Goodell’s suspension of
Tom Brady because we
know he did not serve as
a fair arbitrator and that
players’ rights were violated under our collective
bargaining agreement,” the
statement said. “Our union
will carefully review the
decision, consider all of
our options and continue
to fight for players’ rights
and for the integrity of the
game.”
NFL spokesman Brian
McCarthy said the court
ruled Goodell acted properly in cases involving the
integrity of the game.
“That authority has been
recognized by many courts
and has been expressly
incorporated into every
collective
bargaining
agreement.

record-setting season with
a second straight NBA
title, they will need to survive the next two weeks
without their best player.
Stephen
Curry
is
expected to miss at least
two weeks with a Grade
1 sprain of the MCL in
his right knee, dealing an
unexpected blow to the
Warriors’ hopes of repeating as champions.
“From our perspective, it’s relatively good
news,” general manager
Bob Myers said Monday.
“Clearly we don’t want
to be here getting MRIs
at this point of the season, especially someone
of Steph’s stature. ... But
mechanically the knee is
intact, so that’s good.”
Myers said the twoweek estimate is an educated guess based on how
players typically respond
to similar injuries, but
cautioned the absence
could be three weeks or
possibly slightly shorter.
The team will have
a better handle on how
long Curry will be out
after about a week but
Curry will miss the rest
of the first round of the
playoffs and almost assuredly the start of the second round if the Warriors
advance. Golden State
leads Houston 3-1 heading into Game 5 at home
on Wednesday night.
“If it’s not two weeks,
don’t go crazy,” Myers
said. “If it’s before that,
great. If it’s after, it’s after.”
Curry was injured on
the final play of the first
half of Sunday’s 121-94
win in Houston when he
slid awkwardly on a wet
spot on the court and
fell. He immediately
grabbed his knee and
jogged with a limp to
the locker room.
“Nobody is to blame
here,” Myers said. “If
you play basketball,
that stuff happens unfortunately.”
Curry came out with
the team after halftime,
but sat on the bench for
most of the warmup time.
After talking with coaches, he returned to the
locker room with his second injury of the series.
Curry had missed the
previous two games with
a sprained right ankle
but said that was not an
issue during the first half
Sunday.
The Warriors thrived
without Curry on Sunday,
hitting eight 3-pointers in
the third quarter alone to
turn a tie game into a
21-point lead on the way
to the easy win.
But doing that without the reigning MVP for
a longer period of time
figures to be more problematic. The Warriors
have gone 3-2 this season
without Curry playing,
including wins against
the Rockets on New Year’s
Eve and at home in Game
2. Golden State also lost
Game 3 in Houston by
one point while Curry sat
with the ankle injury.
Replacing everything
Curry does is almost
impossible because no
one has ever had the
collection of skills he
has with the ability to
spread the defense with
long-range shooting, the
ballhandling to create
his own shot and the
playmaking that leads
to easy baskets for his
teammates.
Curry led the NBA this
season by averaging 30.1
points per game, while
averaging 6.7 assists, 5.4
rebounds and a leagueleading 2.1 steals as

Kobe ‘saves’
potato truck
EAGLE, Idaho (AP)
— Kobe Bryant’s recent
mention of the Great
Big Idaho Potato Truck
might have helped save
the traveling advertisement from a premature
retirement, according to
the head of a state agency that promotes Idaho
potatoes.
The recently retired
Los Angeles Lakers
guard remarked on the
red truck while talking
with an ESPN reporter
during one of his final
games.
The truck hauls a
6-ton replica Russet
Burbank. It’s on its
fifth national tour to
help charities and raise
awareness of Idaho’s
most famous vegetable.
Frank Muir, Idaho
Potato
Commission
president and CEO,
said ESPN sideline
reporter Heather Cox
told him that before a
recent interview, Bryant
referenced the running
story line of the commission’s ads: an Idaho
potato grower’s search
for the “missing” potato
truck.
Cox is a spokesman
for the commission.
well. Curry made a record
402 3-pointers, eclipsing
his own previous mark
by 116.
While backup point
guard Shaun Livingston
and do-everything power
forward Draymond Green
can shoulder much of the
playmaking load and Klay
Thompson is the secondbest 3-point shooter in the
league, the Warriors go
from a historically great
team that won a record 73
games in the regular season with Curry in the lineup to a vulnerable one if
he misses significant time.
With a 3-1 series lead
and two potential games at
home against the eighthseeded Rockets, Golden
State is still primed to
advance to the second
round without Curry.
But a second-round
series against either the
Los Angeles Clippers or
Portland would be much
more problematic.
The second round of
the playoffs won’t start
until this weekend at the
earliest. No matter when
the second round starts,
Game 4 would likely be
either May 8 or 9, which
will be in two weeks.

Hi & Lois
Dear Annie: I am 15 years
old and I love your column.
Here's my problem: Ever
since I was a little girl, I had
one dream — to become an
astronaut. I would gaze at
the stars for hours each night,
and I learned everything I
could from books.
However, my parents
have always drilled into me
that I was to become a doctor
or lawyer. They are very strict,
and I always have obeyed
them. I believe they do this
for my benefit. My parents
grew up poor. They want me
to make heaps of money so I
will want for nothing.
Whenever I bring up the
topic of becoming an astronaut, they quickly shut it
down, because they don't
believe astronauts earn
enough. My parents will
never support me in this. I
have only one path, already
drawn, complete with college
courses and job openings. My
parents see their friends' children becoming lawyers, surgeons or specialists, and they
expect me to do the same.
Even my teachers and friends
give me doubtful looks when
I tell them what I want to do.
Budget wisely and don’t
let take anyone over your personal affairs. Preparation and a
proactive approach will result
in success and peace of mind.
Let your intelligence and
insight lead the way to victory.
Direct and precise communication is the best way to
execute your intentions.
TAURUS (April 20-May

don’t care to do. You’ll gain
respect if you say no. Don’t

-- Speak up, share your suggestions and offer solutions.
Don’t worry about the actions

DEAR DOCTOR K: A

DEAR READER: I think I
know the study she is referring to. Before describing
what it found, it’s worth talking a bit about the immune
system and also about
genes.
First of all, that the
immune system should
change in response to any
external circumstance -- like
the weather, or the season -should not be surprising. The
immune system is constantly changing as it responds
to a changing set of foreign
threats. Different germs, different non-infectious foreign
substances (such as pollen,
animal hair, dust) are entering our bodies all the time.
A healthy immune system is
always refocusing its attack
as it encounters new foreign
substances.
The immune system is
like an army; it has many
different types of cells that
have different functions.
Think of each group of cells
as a platoon that does a particular job. It also has a hierarchy, with the cells at the

“top” directing the actions
of all the other cells -- just
like the generals and admirals in the armed forces.
Those top cells send orders
in the form of immune system chemicals.
For the cells of the
immune system to function
properly, the right genes in
those cells need to be turned
on (and other genes turned
off) at the right time. In the
past 30 years, research scientists have developed ways
of determining which genes
in a cell (or a related group
of cells) are turned on and
off.
So much for the biology
lesson, and on to the study I
think your friend was talking
about. It was conducted by
a scientific group in Europe
that obtained blood samples
from thousands of people
living in both the Northern
and the Southern hemispheres. Some people lived
well north (or south) of the
equator, where the seasons
are most dramatic. Others
are solid, but will not make
you wealthy. But we don't
want you to give up your
dream if you are that committed to it.
The good news is, you
don't have to decide today.
In college, a pre-med program will require many of
the same science classes that
you would need to be an
astronaut. This will give you
an opportunity to see how
well you do in those subjects,
and your parents will have no
objections.

lived near the equator all
year, where the seasons are
the least dramatic.
In the blood samples, the
researchers measured which
immune system genes were
turned on. They found
that some immune system
genes were turned on pretty much all year, without
any seasonal variation. But
in both hemispheres, some
immune system genes were
turned on quite differently
during summer than during
winter.
The study also found, not
surprisingly, that in parts of
the world where infectious
diseases are most common
during certain times of the
year, many more immune
system genes were turned
on during those times. For
example, genes that turn
on protective inflammation
were activated more often
during the rainy season in
equatorial Africa -- a time
when malaria is rampant.
There are no practical
applications that follow
from this study -- at least
not that I can see, and not
yet. But I’m glad you asked
about it, because I agree
with you that the study is
interesting. It underlines just
how dynamic our immune
system is -- and has to be
-- to do its job.

One thing that makes 20th
Century Homes special is our
unique financing process.
Instead of requiring 2 loans–
a construction loan, and later
a final mortgage–and therefore
forcing you to pay 2 loan
origination fees, we are one
of only a few dealers who will
help you bypass the construction
loan.
