The guidelines are based on nutrition science and serves to provide the general public and health professionals with the information they need to help Americans make informed choices. “Protecting the health of the American public includes empowering them with the tools they need to make healthy choices in their daily lives,” said Secretary of Health and Human Services Sylvia M. Burwell. “By focusing on small shifts in what we eat and drink, eating healthy becomes more manageable. The Dietary Guidelines provide science-based recommendations on food and nutrition so people can make decisions that may help keep their weight under control, and prevent chronic conditions, like Type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and heart disease.” The new guidelines suggest that Americans should limit consumption of sugar to no more than 10 percent of their daily calories. The average American consumes up to 22 teaspoons of sugar a day. “The new guidelines are meant to encourage people to cut back on added sugar beverages that have no nutritional value,” said Mallory Summers, Registered Dietician, Licensed Dietician (RD, LD) with the Southeastern Idaho Public Health Department. One 12 ounce can of Coke contains 40 grams of sugar which is equal to 10 teaspoons of added sugar, and a Snickers candy contains the equivalent of seven teaspoons of sugar. “I think the updated guidelines from the USDA on limiting calories from added sugar and saturated fats is in response to the obesity trend we’ve seen in America. The updated USDA guidelines are speaking specifically about added sugars and not naturally occurring sugars. The sugars found naturally in juice and other items are not a problem when consumed in moderation, but when sugar is added to a product, it drives up the amount of calories,” said Shawna Durbin, RD at Morning News — Leslie Sieger Bingham Memorial Hospital. Hailey Sherburne weighs a bowl of sugar at Downtown Bread Co. in Blackfoot. Rescuers raise money with lobster Race tightens: Clinton, Sanders clash on guns, health care By LESLIE SIEGER [email protected] BLACKFOOT — Supporters of the Bingham County Search and Rescue came out Saturday night for the lobster dinner fundraiser. Money raised from the fundraiser will go to purchase needed equipment for the search and rescue team. “Our team needed a way to afford new equipment. We have been able to buy a “Side Sonar.” There are only four in the state,” said fundraiser organizer Mike Fresh. “Tonight the money raised will help buy a pontoon boat for the sonar.” For $45 attendees were served lobster or steak, and a good time. The Bingham County Search and Rescue is a volunteer organization that is dependent on donations to purchase the equipment needed to help perform the work they do. Volunteers pay their own way, and use their own vehicles to get out to the places they are called out to. “We use our own four wheelers, and snowmobiles. The money raised tonight goes to buy heavy equipment we don’t use any of it,” said volunteer Debra Wallace. CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) — Turning up the temperature, Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders tangled repeatedly in Sunday night’s presidential debate over who’s tougher on gun control and Wall Street and how to steer the future of health care in America. It was the last Democratic matchup before voting begins in two weeks, and both sides were eager to rumble as polls showed the race tightening in the leadoff states of Iowa and New Hampshire. Clinton rapped Sanders, the Vermont senator, for voting repeatedly with the National Rifle Association, and then welcomed his weekend reversal of position to support legislation that would deny gun manufacturers legal immunity. She rattled off a list of provisions that she said Sanders had supported in line with the NRA. Sanders, in turn, said Clinton’s assertion that Morning News – Leslie Sieger he kowtowed to the gun Bingham County Search and Rescue volunteer Mike Fresh organized the lobster dinner lobby was “very disingenuous” and pointed to his See DINNER, 2A to raise funds to buy equipment needed by the Search and Rescue team. 496 W Hwy 39 NoW oFFeriNg lifetime rating of a D- from the NRA. On health care, Sanders released his plan for a government-run single-payer plan just hours before the debate, and used his opening statement to call for health care “for every man, woman and child as a right.” Clinton, by contrast, urged less sweeping action to build on President Barack Obama’s health care plan by reducing out-of-pocket costs and control spending on prescription drugs. Clinton suggested Sanders’ approach was dangerous — and pie-inthe-sky unrealistic. “With all due respect, to start over again with a whole new debate is something that would set us back,” Clinton said. Sanders dismissed the idea that he’d endanger hard-won victories, insisting: “No one is tearing this up; we’re going to go forward.” Clinton suggested See DEBATE, 2A Riverbend Rentals Auto Rental Service 785-2340 Powell’s Body SHop & ToWing (208)785-4040 State-of-the-Art detail Shop!

DEBATE, continued from 1A Sanders’ health care plan would impose a heavier tax burden on the middle class, saying “I want to raise incomes, not taxes.” Sanders insisted taxpayers would come out ahead with lower costs overall. “It’s a pretty good deal,” he said. The two tangled over financial policy, too, with Sanders suggesting Clinton won’t be tough enough on Wall Street given the big contributions and speaking fees she’s accepted. Clinton, in turn, faulted Sanders’ past votes to deregulate financial markets and ease up on federal oversight. Then, she took a step back to put those differences in a different perspective. “We’re at least having a vigorous debate about reining in Wall Street,” she declared. “The Republicans want to give them more power.” Clinton worked aggressively to associate herself with President Obama, claiming credit for her role in the run-up to the Iran nuclear deal as well as praising the health care law. Overall, the tone of the debate was consider- Confidence in Our Quality WOrk ably more heated than the past three face-offs in the Democratic primary. But it also included moments of levity. At different points, both Clinton and Sanders prefaced their criticism of one another with the phrase “in all due respect.” Sanders took note that he was copying Clinton on that verbiage, drawing a chuckle from his rival. Then he finished his thought on health care, telling Clinton “in all due respect, you’re missing the main point.” Clinton, playing to her liberal audience, cast Sanders’ criticisms of Obama for being too weak in taking on Wall Street as unfair, and declared, “I’m going to defend President Obama for taking on Wall Street” and getting results. “The Republicans just voted last week to repeal the Affordable care Act, and thank goodness, President Obama vetoed it and saved Obamacare for the American people,” Clinton said. Turning to national security, both Sanders and Clinton voiced strong support for Obama’s diplomatic overtures to Iran and opposition to sending U.S. ground troops into Syria. Clinton defended her outreach to Russia early in her term as secretary of state, but hesitated when asked to describe her relationship with Vladimir Putin, whose return to the Russian presidency heralded the worsening of U.S.-Russian relations. “My relationship with him — it’s interesting,” Clinton said to laughs in the debate hall. “It’s one, I think, of respect.” But she added it was critical to constantly stand up to Putin, describing him as a bully who “will take as much as he possibly can.” Clinton also shed some light on what role her husband, former President Bill Clinton, would play in her administration. Kitchen table adviser, perhaps? “It’ll start at the kitchen table — we’ll see where it goes from there,” she said with a laugh. Then, pointing to the successes of her husband’s administration, she added: “You bet I’m going to ask for his ideas. I’m going to ask for his advice.” Sanders was asked about his previous criticism of Bill Clinton’s past sexual behavior. He called the former president’s behavior “deplorable” but said he wants to focus on issues “not Bill Clinton’s personal life.” Clinton maintained a tight smile throughout that exchange, and nodded as Sanders said the focus should be on issues. se habla espanol The Best Auto Care for You & Your Family LoCALLy owNed & operAted Call 785-4661 M-F 9-6 Now Accepting All Major Credit Cards 435 Wilson, Blackfoot.

For the MORNING NEWS POCATELLO – The Idaho State University United Way Campaign, held last fall, raised a record amount from the University community, collecting $67,630. “We surpassed all previous campaigns, beating our goal of $65,000. We are ecstatic,” said Stacey Marshall, ISU assistant director of the Office of Human Resources. “ISU is one of the largest donors to United Way in Southeast Idaho and we’re proud of the support ISU employees are providing to the community. Thanks to all who donated their hard earned dollars to help those less fortunate.” The ISU United Way campaign supports the United Way of Southeastern Idaho, the Treasure Valley and Bonneville County and Idaho Falls, as employees at ISU-Meridian and ISUIdaho Falls also contributed. “We’d like to thank all the ISU employees who contributed and participated in events to support this worthy cause,” said Laura Judkins, ISU Human Resources training associate, who was an ISU United Way Campaign organizer. “We couldn’t have done this without the support of Jim Fletcher, vice president for finance, and the Office of Finance and Administration, which supported all of the events.” The ISU United Way team consisted of Marshall, Judkins, Administrative Assistant Robin Nelson from the Counseling and Testing Center, Assistant Risk Manager Susan Hengel-Morris from General Counsel and ISU student Mckenzie Thomas. This year fundraising activities included a fall carnival that incorporated the popular dunk booth, a bowling event sponsored by Information Technology, and the sale by Facilities Services of calendars that featured photographs from around campus. “I am very proud of the wonderful response of the United Way Campaign,” Fletcher said. “I commend the hard work of this team who spearheaded our campaign. I am pleased at the generosity of the ISU campus and believe that the results will significantly benefit our communities.” Submitted photo A group of clowns at the ISU United Way Campaign fall carnival included, from left, ISU United Way Committee members Stacey Marshall, Laura Judkins and Susan Hengel-Morris. 785-1320 ServiceS Harold Hill Celebration of Life: 4:00 p.m. February 7, 2016 at Rigby Country Living, 4202 E 300 N in Rigby for more info visit hawkerfuneralhome.com Goosebumps No Show 1hr 40min PG Family Joy 1:30 9:30 2hr 5min PG-13 Drama Peanuts 1:30 1hr 30min G Family The Martian 3:30 6:50 9:20 2hr 25min PG-13 Drama Spectre 3:40 9:00 2hr 30min PG-13 Action In the Heart of the Sea 4:05(3D) 6:50 9:00(3D) 2hr 5min PG-13 Drama Hotel Transylvania 2 2:00 7:00 1hr 30min PG Family Alvin and the Chipmunks: Roadchip 1:40 4:00 7:00 1hr 25min PG Family 461 Park Ave- Downtown Idaho falls (208)525-3340 Concussion 4:30 7:00 2hr 5min PG-13 Drama Creed 4:30 6:50 2hr 15min PG-13 Action Police Log Items of note from Jan.

We like to imagine that the lives of our children are relatively stress free. Oh sure, things like that upcoming math test or who to take to the prom may cause them stress, but it’s not the same kind of stress we face at work or over financial issues... or is it? Actually, stress affects each of us, regardless of age. Stress is a combination of two things. The first is the “stressor,” the situation that triggers the physical and emotional reactions we feel. For adults it can be anything from serious financial issues to something as temporary as this morning’s traffic jam. The second part of stress is our “stress response,” our natural reaction to a stressor. Stress causes our bodies to release chemicals that increase our breathing, heart rate, alertness and muscle response. It’s all a natural reaction that we inherited from our ancient ancestors. Back then, their survival meant reacting quickly to the threats they met. That natural response happens to everyone, whether we’re a 40-year old man facing a possible job loss, or a 10-year old boy facing that school bully coming toward him on the playground. When the source of stress is a temporary situation, it usually isn’t a big deal in terms of our overall health and well-being. But when someone faces stressful situations repeatedly, the result can be that the person feels constantly nervous or exhausted, and it can result in very real physical and emotional ailments. How can you recognize if your child is facing high levels of stress? Often the warning signs will include changes in both behavior and physical well-being. You may see stress-related behavioral changes such as anger or impatience over relatively minor things. Your child may seem constantly anxious, unable to relax and perhaps sleeping poorly or excessively. You might notice changes in eating behavior through either a loss of appetite or suddenly overeating. Frequent headaches or physical pain can also be stress-related. Excessive stress is not a problem to be ignored. Try talking to your child in a non-judgmental way about what may be bothering him or her. Be kind but persistent if there is a reluctance to share information. Seeking help from an experienced professional is often needed to help the child. Your school counselor or a professional counselor specializing in children can often help address the underlying issues causing the stress. “Counseling Corner” is provided by the American Counseling Association.

Our water is among our greatest treasures; we must protect both its quality and its quantity for future generations of Idahoans. With guidance and support from Governor Otter and the Idaho Legislature, great progress is being made to ensure that we can meet existing and future water needs. These efforts start with every person, home, industry, city, farm or any other water user finding ways to use less. We also must find ways to do a better job reusing our water. These can be projects that cities develop to reuse wastewater, industries reusing “process water,” and agriculture finding creative ways to reuse their water. One of the Water Resource Board’s great concerns is depletion of Idaho’s water resources – particularly our aquifers. Most of our cities and employers, and of our ag industry stakeholders, tap into groundwater aquifers to meet their needs. But many of our aquifers are dropping. That’s why the Water Resource Board has draft- ed a statewide sustainability policy. The Board will conduct public meetings throughout Idaho in the coming year to gather suggestions on incorporating its findings into our Comprehensive State Water Plan. Sustainability of our precious water resources is critical to our future. Idaho is the No. 3 user of water per capita in the United States, behind Texas and California. The agriculture industry is by far the largest water user in the state. Ag also is Idaho’s largest industry, with $7.9 billion in cash receipts in 2015. Idaho’s farms and producers not only help feed America, but also the world. The ag industry continues to be more efficient with its water use every year. But like all of us, farmers and ranchers also understand that we must do better. The Idaho Water Resource Board’s top priority is to “stop the drop” in our aquifers and stabilize them. The largest effort toward achieving that goal right now involves stabilizing the critically overused Eastern Snake Plain Aquifer. First we must increase sustainable spring flows for fish hatcheries in the Hagerman area. This is being done by purchasing some fish hatcheries, recharging the aquifer to increase flows returning to the springs, replacing some groundwater pumping projects with surface water, and finding ways to reduce and responsibly redistribute water use. The second part of this effort is a historic agreement between the groundwater users and surface water users. The groundwater users agreed to reduce their pumping by 240,000 acre-feet of water a year and lease additional water to offset shortfalls that might be caused by drawing too much from the aquifer. Surface water users have agreed they will not make “water calls” on the groundwater pumpers if the terms of the agreement are met. If a water call is made, it would force users with newer or “junior” water rights to stop pumping. The third part of this effort focuses on building and improving aquifer recharge sites capable of recharging an average of 250,000 acre-feet of water a year. To manage costs and utilize areas where recharge already occurs, most of the recharge water is delivered through existing canals to sites known as “spreading basins” located near the canals. Water for recharge comes primarily from Snake River flows in the fall and winter and during high flows in the spring. A concerted effort also is under way to monitor the results of recharge on groundwater levels and water quality. The recharge sites are being monitored to ensure the aquifer’s pristine water supplies are protected. Over time, recharge efforts should stabilize and sustain the aquifer and enable us to meet existing water demands.

They couldn’t believe it,” she said in a telephone interview from Boise. Iran agreed to release four detained Americans in exchange for seven Iranians held or charged in the United States, U.S. and Iran officials said Saturday. A fifth American detained in Iran, a student, was released in a move unrelated to a prisoner swap earlier between the two countries. The four Americans were to be flown from Iran to Switzerland and then taken to a U.S. military hospital in Germany for medical treatment, U.S. officials said. Those released include Washington Post reporter Jason Rezaian, former U.S. Marine Amir Hekmati and Nosratollah Khosravi-Roodsari. The Boise man was detained for compromising national security, presumably because of Christian proselytizing, in September 2012. He was sentenced in 2013 to 8 years in prison. “We are rejoicing,” Jay Sekulow, a leading advocate for the pastor and chief counsel of the American Center for Law and Justice in Washington, D.C., said in a video posted on the center’s website. Saeed Abedini, an Iranian-born American citizen, was imprisoned “over three years ago because of his Christian faith,” Sekulow said. He was in Iran building an orphanage, Sekulow said. “It’s been a really hard battle,” said Naghmeh Abedini, adding that she has worked with different government officials and others to advocate for her husband and to keep his story alive. Early last year, she met with President Barack Obama while he was visiting Boise. She said at the time that she urged him not to approve the deal with Iran without working on securing her husband’s freedom. set for trial BOISE (AP) — A Boston mobster who posed as an Idaho rancher for more than a decade goes to court in Boise next month. Enrico Ponzo, 47, is representing himself and plans to argue that he suffered from a mental defect, reported the Idaho Statesman. His court filing did not give details on his mental condition, but noted that the judge who oversaw his 2013 Boston trial ordered treatment for a “mental defect.” Ponzo went by the name Jeffrey John “Jay” Shaw while living in Idaho. He is charged with the unlawful possession of firearms, identity theft and possession of documents with intent to use them fraudulently. He was arrested in February 2011 after authorities were tipped off about his true identity. They found 22 rifles, eight handguns and 34,000 rounds of ammunition at his home near Marsing. In addition, police seized $100,000 in cash and $65,000 worth of gold coins from the home. They said there was also evidence that a floor safe had been looted. Authorities also found forged driver’s licenses w and ID cards with the names of at least 10 people Ponzo impersonated during his 16 years on the run.

Authorities said Case was wanted on a misdemeanor warrant when they tried to pull him over. Lewiston Police Lt. Joedy Mundell said Case led officers on a chase from downtown to neighborhoods in the Lewiston Orchards, but they discontinued it over safety concerns. Deputies spotted the vehicle again and pursued it until it parked behind a business, where they said Case got out and started shooting. Witness Alex Barden told the newspaper he saw the suspect raise a gun and shoot at officers. Mundell said the officers returned fire, wounding Case.

Boise attorney Jeff Brownson will attend the trial as “standby counsel” for Ponzo. He can help Ponzo with procedural questions but will not be allowed to question witnesses or advance the defense case. In the Idaho case, Ponzo faces up to 10 years in prison on each weapons charge and up to five years for each fraudulent document charge. Identity theft carries a mandatory two-year sentence for each count and it must be served separately from any other sentence. A Boston jury found Ponzo responsible for trying to kill two rivals, including a Mafia leader who was shot outside a restaurant by masked men. He was sentenced to 28 years in prison and ordered to give up $2.3 million in drug profits. At the Boston sentencing, Ponzo said he was a changed man who had lived a crime-free life for 18 years. “After all the posturing, rhetoric, excuses, blaming others, the time has come for you to pay for your crimes,” the judge told him, according to the Boston Globe. “You can run, but ultimately you cannot hide from your sordid past in organized crime.” Bret J.

The firm hired by the family, Klein Investigations and Consulting, said Saturday that it ruled out forced abduction and a wild animal attack. The Idaho State Journal says investigators did not name potential suspects in DeOrr Kunz’s death but asked for those with information to come forward. The boy was last seen on July 10 at his family’s campsite at Timber Creek Campground, just south of the town of Leadore near the Montana border. Despite numerous searches, no trace of Kunz has been found. Investigator Philip Klein says the firm couldn’t rule out the boy was accidentally or intentionally killed.

About 110 Mexican gray wolves — a smaller subspecies of the gray wolf — now roam a portion of Arizona and New Mexico, nearly two decades after the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service released 11 wolves there to restart a population that had nearly vanished. The agency hopes to complete a comprehensive recovery plan for the Mexican wolf in 2017, and officials say they’ve made no decision about releasing them in Colorado or You Could Win $50 In Weekly Prizes!

They were hunted, trapped or driven out of many areas by the end of the last century and were regarded as a menace to largely defenseless sheep and cattle. But they also became a symbol for the environmental movement, a noble if fearsome avatar of the wild. To support their arguments, both sides point to the northern Rockies, where the Fish and Wildlife Service estimates about 1,800 gray wolves live in Idaho, Montana, Oregon, Washington and Wyoming. Wolves began killing hundreds of sheep and cattle after their release in the northern Rockies about 20 years ago, and big game populations fell drastically in some areas, officials said. But they say cattle deaths are declining and game herds are rebounding since wolves were removed from Endangered Species Act protection in Idaho and Montana in 2011. The Fish and Wildlife Service then turned over wolf management to the states, which allow some hunting and sometimes remove or kill problem wolves. “We know the wolf population is doing fine and continues to expand,” said Mike Jimenez, northern Rockies wolf coordinator for the Fish and Wildlife Service. “We use lethal control on wolves that are causing big problems.” Overall agricultural losses are low, but to an individual rancher, they can be devastating, he said. In Idaho, elk numbers have begun to rebound since the state began managing wolves, state Fish and Game spokesman Mike Keckler said. “And we still have a very sustainable wolf population in our state,” he said. “So we feel like we’re making progress in bringing balance.” Wolves were briefly removed from federal protection in Wyoming, but safeguards were restored after environmental groups filed lawsuits challenging state management plans. The state is appealing the decision. Legal wrangling is part of what makes wolves so aggravating, said Jim Magagna, executive vice president of the Wyoming Stock Growers Association. “We have learned to live with them,” he said of the estimated 330 wolves in Wyoming. “We have not learned to live with the never-ending process.” Netflix chief says 2016 will bring emphasis on family PUZZLE RULES: Bring your entry to The Morning News at 34 N.

Their governors joined Arizona and New Mexico’s executives in November to accuse the Fish and Wildlife Service of using flawed science and biased experts. They demanded that no Mexican wolves be released outside the southern parts of Arizona and New Mexico. Wildlife commissioners in Utah and Colorado also spoke out against releasing Mexican wolves in their states — the Utah Wildlife Board in December and the Colorado Parks and Wildlife Commission last Wednesday. The Fish and Wildlife Service defended the experts and the process. Mexican wolves have been contentious in Arizona and New Mexico for years. New Mexico officials are resisting proposals to release more wolves. Arizona state lawmakers tried but failed to allow ranchers to kill federally protected wolves in self-defense. Environmental groups, meanwhile, are pushing for the release of more captive-bred wolves to bolster the population in those states. In Colorado and Utah, opponents argue that wolves would inflict costly and cruel losses on cattle and sheep and decimate big game herds that support the lucrative hunting industry. They also say Mexican wolves aren’t native to their states, and bringing them in could taint the gene pool if they bred with gray wolves roaming down from the northern Rockies. “We don’t need to introduce another large predatory carnivore to the state,” Colorado Wool Growers Association director Bonnie Brown told the Colorado Parks and Wildlife Commission last week. Mountain lions are already killing pets in urban areas bordering open country. Wolf advocates say the fears are overblown, and that Mexican wolves need more ranges to avoid extinction. Parts of Colorado and Utah would be ideal for wolves, said Jonathan Proctor of Defenders of Wildlife, and he argued that both states are within the wolves’ historical range. The West needs wolves to help restore balance to the environment, he said. “It’s we humans who have eradicated all the wolves from the West,” Proctor said. “It’s our responsibility to bring this animal back.” Wolves have long been PASADENA, Calif. (AP) — Netflix says it will make a special effort to produce programming for children and families, with the streaming service offering 20 new programs in the category this year led by the Feb. 26 premiere of the “Fuller House” remake. Ted Sarandos, Netflix chief content officer, said Sunday that there’s not enough of this programming on traditional TV right now. The emphasis also coincides with Netflix’s broadening subscriber base — it’s more than 19-year-old boys clicking onto the service now. The streaming service is in only its fourth season of making original content with deep pockets that have made traditional TV networks envious. Sarandos, who said Netflix will spend $5 billion on content this year, aggressively fought back against recent criticism from rivals. The remake of the popular “Full House” is highly anticipated. The network on Friday also made available new episodes of the teen-focused series “Degrassi.” Jim Henson’s company is making “Word Party,” a show for preschoolers, and “Lost & Found Music Studios,” premiering in April, is about striving teenage musicians. Also in April, the animated “Kong: King of the Apes” will update the King Kong series. “The Get Down,” a series starting this summer about the formative days of rap music, could appeal to both youngsters and their parents. Netflix said it has 43 million subscribers in the United States, or more than a third of households with television, and 70 million worldwide. It has steadfastly refused to detail how many people watch their original programs, leading a rival to try and pull back the curtain this week.

Broncos stormed over by Tigers By JASON ENES [email protected] IDAHO FALLS — With 4:12 left in the fourth quarter and trailing by nine, Blackfoot assistant coach Jake Harris told his team during a time out that they were still in the game and if they could get a few more defensive stops a win was in their grasp. But on the ensuing possession Idaho Falls Sawyer Storms got an easy put back off a missed shot, the next time down the floor he had a fast break slam dunk. After the dunk Storms taunted the Broncos Taylor Pearson earning a technical foul, his second of the game earning Storms an ejec- tion. The Broncos were not able to take back momentum however, falling to the Tigers 69-53 Saturday night at Idaho Falls High School. Storms was a thorn in the side of the Broncos and their fans all night long with his physical play, that the officials let go despite that more often than not a Bronco player ended up on the floor. Storms scored a gamehigh 21 points, and was a key cog in the Idaho Falls offense all night. Blackfoot struggled all night shooting the basketball, and even with the struggles they were in the game. They trailed by five after one quarter and by eight at halftime. But the shooting struggles and defensive breakdowns reared their head in the third quarter. Idaho Falls came out hot shooting the basketball starting the quarter on a 15-4 run to build a 45-26 lead. Nathan Colvin made a couple of acrobatic layups to start to the give the Broncos some momentum, and Duncan Hale buried a 3-pointer from deep to pull the Broncos within 14 at the end of three quarters. Jarod Greene and Taylor Person worked the low post in the fourth quarter to claw the team back. But after every pair of made free throws it seemed as if the Tigers would answer with 3-pointer. The Tigers hit seven 3-pointers in the game Greene led the Broncos with 15 points, Colvin added eight. Blackfoot hosts Preston on Wednesday.

Lady Broncos lose to Idaho Falls By MARK HIGH For the Morning News BLACKFOOT — It was a packed house for Saturday evenings non-conference basketball game at Blackfoot High School as the Lady Broncos hosted their former coach and his Idaho Falls Lady Tigers. After hosting a successful Lady Bronco basketball camp, Blackfoot took to the court looking to showcase those skills that they had imparted earlier in the day in front of a huge group of future Lady Broncos all clad in green shirts. Alas, the final score was not as the Blackfoot faithful had hoped for, but in the end Blackfoot showed the never say die attitude as they fought gamely to the end in a 58-37 loss. Raedeyn Teton got the game kick started for the Lady Broncos as the senior lined up a deep ball for a three and Blackfoot’s lone lead of the evening. Teton led the Lady Broncos in the scoring column as she tallied 8 points on the evening. Idaho Falls answered with a 12-0 run that was halted by an Ashlyn Beers power lay up late in the quarter and the Lady Tigers led 14-5 after the first quar- ter of play. Full court pressure by the visitors kept the Lady Broncos at bay for the remainder of the first half and into the third quarter and at one point, it looked as if the mercy rule was going to be evoked. Blackfoot would not quit however with Sami Macfee and Madie Rigby diving all over the court, Blackfoot battled into the fourth quarter, outscoring the visitors as Teton connected on a three ball, Anicia Luna got loose for four points and Kira Beasley tallied a bucket underneath to make the final score respectable.

Kimberly came into the game undefeated on the season but Snake River was unimpressed as they battled throughout the matinee action, trading blows with the Lady Bulldogs all the way to the bitter end in a game that featured nine ties and ten lead changes. “You know it came down to free throws and unfortunately we shot 38 percent from the free throw line,” Snake River head coach Rich Dunn said. “We had that game won three different times. We had kids that played their butts off for us. I thought that the kids coming off of the bench did a great job of matching the intensity of the game.” Snake River got a huge game from the interior of their offense as Alyssa Crumley powered home a game-high 22 points and running mate Sari Steadman added a bakers dozen with 13 points as time and time again the duo were found inside for big baskets against the Lady Bulldog defense. “Alyssa, Sari and Jessica (Adams) did such a good job of sealing,” Coach Dunn said. “Our entry passes into the post were so much better than we have all year. We showed great patience all night long except for the end of a couple of quarters.” It looked as if the Lady Panthers were going to win the game outright coming down the stretch in regulation as they converted a pair of three point plays to put them up by a bucket with :25 remaining. With the team not in the bonus, Snake River had a couple of fouls to give but unfortunately Kimberly’s Maysie Rongen was fouled on a shot attempt with :01.9 remaining on the clock.

Buckets were at a premium in the overtime period with Snake River taking a 59-57 lead with 2:13 remaining, courtesy of a Crumley bucket in the post. A free throw by Jessica Adams with :40 remaining extended that lead to 60-57. Kimberly only tallied one field goal in the first overtime but it was a critical one as Kendra Keller drained a three to tie the game at 60-60 with :27 remaining and eventually sending the game into double-overtime. Kimberly drew first blood in the second bonus frame for a lead that they never surrendered as Snake River came up just short on the evening. “They played their butts off tonight,” Coach Dunn said. “Unfortunately we just gifted it back to them.” Snake River (10-7, 1-0) will look to build on Saturday’s performance when they host Marsh Valley on Wednesday for a critical conference date with the Lady Eagles. “That’s going to be a big one,” Coach Dunn said. “It’s here at our place and obviously it is a big one for us so we will get back at it on Monday.” APR* A VISA Home Equity Card offers several advantages: • No Annual Fee • No Draw Fees • No Origination Fees on Credit Lines under $50,000 www.westmark.org CREDIT UNION The Morning News – Bingham County’s news source Monday, January 18, 2016 8A COMICS & ADVICE FRANK & ERNEST ZITS HI & LOIS You can accomplish your goals if you are pragmatic and focus on following through on your plans.

DEAR DOCTOR K: I’m hard of hearing and want to learn more about cochlear implants. Are they a type of hearing aid? GARFIELD HAGAR Dear Annie: Six years ago, our son married a woman with a 4-year-old daughter. We immediately fell in love with this little girl. There is no biological father in the picture, and her maternal grandparents live out of state. We have always told her that we consider her to be our granddaughter, with everyone's blessing. This will be the second year that my husband and I have not been invited to her birthday party. Over the years, we have tried to do special things for her, such as outings, new clothes, toys and books, just as if we were her grandparents by blood. She never calls us "Grandma" or "Grandpa," but her parents say she refers to us as her grandparents to others. Our son was also given a birthday party by our daughterin-law, and we were not invited to even stop by. I don't know why we are being left out of these celebrations and we are incredibly hurt. We spend other holidays together, such as Thanksgiving and Christmas, and we are always very generous in contributing toward those times. We also help them if they run THE HORRIBLE FOR BETTER OR DEAR READER: A cochlear implant involves several small electronic devices that are surgically implanted in the ear. It can provide sound to people who are severely hard of hearing or deaf. It is not a type of hearing aid. In fact, to be eligible for a cochlear implant, a person must have hearing loss in both ears that is so extreme that even the best hearing aid has little or no effect. To explain a cochlear implant, I first need to explain how the ear works. Sound waves travel into the ear canal. (When you get wax in your ear, it’s in the ear canal.) The sound waves then hit a thin membrane called the eardrum, causing it to vibrate. Behind the eardrum are several tiny bones. They begin to vibrate, and send the vibrations to a snailshaped organ deep inside the ear: the cochlea (pronounced COKE-lee-ah). The vibrations then create waves in fluid that is inside the cochlea. Those fluid waves move tiny little hairs. When January 18, 2016 2011 - 7B am-news.com MorningNews Kathy Mithchell & Marcie Sugar Annie's Mailbox short of money. If relations were strained, I could understand, but we always seem to have a great time together, both alone with our granddaughter and with the entire family. Please tell us what to do. And if we just need to accept this, how can we get over the pain so that it won't jeopardize our future relationship? — Unhappy Grandparents Dear Unhappy: This girl is now 10 years old. It may come as a surprise to you, but most kids stop including adults in their birthday parties around the age of 7, if not sooner. They want parties with their school friends. Some kids include the grandparents, but many do not. It is Eugenia Last Astro-Graph es that will ease your stress and make your life easier. Romance will improve your personal life. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Think out loud and discuss your intentions to make your goals more apparent and doable. Travel and information gathering will contribute to a decision that will expand your options. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- A plan you’ve been contemplating will bring about a positive personal change. Explore new ways to use old ideas, but be realistic and stick to a strict budget. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- A creative idea has the potential to become a moneymaker. Altering your living space will be conducive to developing your plan. Ask for help to complete your project. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Dr. Anthony Komaroff Ask Doctor K moved, the hairs send signals to the brain, along the main hearing nerve, the auditory nerve. The brain interprets those signals -- and we hear. Cochlear implant surgery bypasses most of this whole complicated process. It involves a small device worn above the ear, another device surgically implanted under the skin above the ear, and tiny wires that are surgically placed into the cochlea. The devices above the ear and under the skin include a tiny microphone to capture sound waves and convert them into electrical signals. Those electrical signals get transmitted to the wires that lead into, and stimulate, the cochlea. The cochlea then sends signals to the brain along the main hearing nerve. In other words, a cochlear implant bypasses the sick parts of the normal hearing apparatus: the eardrum, the little bones, and the fluid that perfectly normal and not a reason to be hurt. Also, it could be one way your daughter-in-law chooses not to upset her own parents, who live too far away to attend. A similar dynamic applies to your son's birthday. He wants a party with friends, and as much as he loves his parents, it doesn't mean you fit in to such a gathering. Please think of this differently. It is not intended to be hurtful. Instead, ask to take your granddaughter out for a special outing to celebrate her birthday. (P.S.: What she calls you is not important if the relationship is good.)

You’ll be given false information and face tough decisions if you aren’t discreet about your personal business. moves the tiny hairs inside the cochlea. And it uses the healthy hearing nerve to transmit signals from the cochlea to the brain. (I’ve put an illustration of this on my website, AskDoctorK.com.) A person must learn how to interpret sounds through the implant. Learning to use a cochlear implant is hard work and can take months or years. Restoring hearing with a cochlear implant may help prevent several complications of living without hearing, which include depression and slowed thinking. What led to the development of this miraculous new technology? Research, by many people. In particular, someone had to discover how the cochlea works; that discovery was honored with the Nobel Prize. Someone had to discover how to electrically stimulate the cochlea, and how the cochlea sends signals to the brain that it can understand. Finally, scientists had to invent miniaturized electronics that the cochlear implant uses, and the surgical techniques to place the electronics inside the body. In short, it was research that has given the gift of hearing to thousands of people who had lost it, or never had it.
