Only two citizens showed up to the 5:30 p.m. meeting in Randle, and about nine people attended the 7 p.m. meeting in Morton, with at least one person, Morton Mayor Dan Mortensen, showing up to both meetings.

2A Girls Wrestling NFL Michael Bennett Does It All at Pro Bowl Practice KAHUKU (AP) — Michael Bennett did his best imitation of Deion Sanders on Friday. Bennett, a Seattle Seahawks defense end and member of Team Rice for Sunday's Pro Bowl, did a little bit of everything at Friday's 45-minute practice ses- sion on Oahu's north shore. In addition to his duties on the defensive line, Bennett lined up at wide receiver for one play during the 7-on-7 portion of practice. He caught a short pass from Tampa Bay quarterback Ja- meis Winston in front of Atlanta cornerback Desmond Trufant. Bennett later lined up next to Philadelphia's Darren Sproles as dual punt returners during special teams drills and was the Brandon Hansen / [email protected] recipient of a reverse from the W.F.

He’s set to headline a concert at the Hub City Club in Centralia Feb. 10. Triple Thr33 Kennedy said he’s been wanting to bring bigger shows to Centralia, and when he found out Bubba Sparxxx was heading to Longview, he worked with the booking company to get him up to Lewis County as well. “Bubba’s a great artist, so I’m pretty excited, not to mention we don’t have many easily recog- nizable artists coming through town,” said Dr Roks, otherwise known as Neal Bahrt. Bubba Sparxxx may be a big name in the hip hop world, but Bahrt said he doesn’t get “star- struck.” Bahrt has opened for , whose second “Feature Presentation” debuted at No. 60 on the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop chart in 2008, and Kung Fu Vampire, who toured with Insane Clown Posse in 2013. He said he views recogniz- able artists as peers and hopes that if he becomes famous through his music or DJing that other artists will think of him that way as well. Kennedy said when the opportunity to bring Bubba Sparxxx to Centralia came, he knew he wanted to include Hub Courtesy Photo City artists as well. Jack Skiles, left, and Jason Kennedy make up the duo State of Krisis. “It’s our town. It’s our show,” he said. Anyone familiar with the lo- cal hip hop scene will know the guys performing, Kennedy said, but others will probably be sur- prised by the artists that started in Lewis County. “Our ultimate goal is the help people out and inspire people back home,” he said, noting that with the drugs and low income in the area, it can be a depress- ing place. State of Krisis, who has worked with T-Pain, The Ying Yang Twins and Tech-9, plans to release a new album this sum- mer. The duo met with hip hop label Def Jam Recordings to define the sound for the album.

By Erika I. Ritchie The Orange County Register MISSION VIEJO, Calif. — Alvin Butcher put on his finest suit last Monday. There were a couple of rea- sons for that. First, the 90-year-old World War II veteran was slated for an outing, away from his routine inside a Mission Viejo, Califor- nia., hospice and out to the out- side world. Second, the man who would be taking Butcher out, the hos- pice’s 65-year-old chaplain, Roger Rustad, had promised that this outing would be special. Butcher, Rustad said, would be going for a ride. So when Rustad walked in and saw Butcher sitting at atten- tion in his best suit, both men grinned. “I expected him to be dressed warmly,” Rustad said. “But he insisted on wearing his suit.” Rustad and two caregiv- ers helped get Butcher out of his regular wheelchair, upright. Next, they guided him in a walker to get down the driveway. “I can do it,” Butcher cried out happily as he moved forward. “I can do it!” Finally, they came upon an interesting looking rig, another wheelchair that wasn’t at all like the one Butcher had just exited. Michael Goulding / Orange County Register The seat was big and comfy.

"Avoid areas near septic tanks or runoff and aerosols from contaminated irrigation systems," she said. "Septic tanks or reservoirs could be leaking." • Use only potable water for your produce. Groundwater from wells (the deeper the better) is generally safer than water from streams or ponds. Drip systems are better than sprinklers for avoiding direct water contact with edibles like leafy greens grow- ing above the soil. • Manage manure and compost properly. Age it from 2 to 4 months so beneficial bacteria can kill out the harmful types. Mix compost frequently, and ensure that it reaches temperatures of 140 degrees or more for prolonged periods to reduce or eliminate E. coli contamination. "Food safety isn't on the radar screen in many cases for home gardeners," said Kurt Nolte, an agriculture agent with the School of Plant Sciences at the University of Arizona. "Many gardeners, including myself, just don't have (compost) temperature probes that go that high." • Clean tools and yourself after gardening. "Keep pets out of the garden, use a high-quality water source, ensure that people in the garden are not sick, and that there's no human waste on your hands or person," Nolte said. • Wash all fruits and vegetables before eating them, especially if serving them raw. Washing removes dirt and bacteria as well as residual pesticides. Cooking kills many pathogens, and promptly refrigerating leftovers will slow the growth of harmful bacteria.
