NFL Quinn, Jackson Lead Seahawks to 31-10 Victory By Bernie Wilson The Associated Press SAN DIEGO — Even though it was an exhibition opener, the Seattle Seahawks looked like a team worthy of big expectations. And the San Diego Char- gers? Well, except for a nice opening drive, they looked like the same old Chargers. Tarvaris Jackson threw two touchdown passes and Brady Quinn, also battling to be Rus- sell Wilson’s backup, threw for another score as the Seahawks beat San Diego 31-10 Thursday night in Mike McCoy’s debut as Chargers coach. “I think you saw a little bit of what the Seahawks are,” said Quinn, signed in the offseason after spending last season with the Kansas City Chiefs. “An ex- plosive team, a team that likes to have fun and is extremely ag- gressive on offense and defense, and extremely confident. Hope- fully we can build off that.” Jackson won seven games for the Seahawks as their start- ing quarterback in 2011. He was traded to the Buffalo Bills during training camp last sea- son when it became evident he would not win the starting job over Wilson and Matt Flynn. The Bills released Jackson earlier this summer and the Seahawks re-signed him. “It’s been a long time, but it Gregory Bull / The Associated Press was fun out there,” Jackson said.

College Football NCAA to Stop Jersey Sales on Its Website By Blair Kerkhoff The Kansas City Star KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The NCAA isn't planning a going-out-of-business sale, but it's exiting the jersey- selling business. Less than a week after ESPN basketball analyst Jay Bilas launched a series of Twitter posts that de- picted the football and bas- ketball jerseys of specific college athletes being sold through the NCAA Shop website, NCAA president Mark Emmert said the sales would end. "There's no compelling reason the NCAA should essentially be reselling paraphernalia from insti- tutions," Emmert said on a conference call Thursday. "I can't speak to why we en- tered into that enterprise, but it's not appropriate for us, and we're going to exit it immediately."

The Chronicle, Centralia/Chehalis, Wash., Saturday, Aug. 10, 2013 Life The Kings & Queens of Bridge By Carrina Stanton For The Chronicle Alex Rajala has played bridge for many years and taught many people the game. He said he loves the competition and challenge but what keeps him coming back week after week is the people he meets. “It's an inexpensive and enjoyable social outlet,” said Rajala, who has led the Centralia Bridge Club since 1995. “I've probably made about 200 friends through bridge who I would never have met otherwise. It has really broadened my horizons.” Once a common party game, bridge remains popular among many players. And for generations, residents of Lewis County have been gathering for the weekly games of what is today called the Centralia Bridge Club. Burton “Bud” Durr, Chehalis, said he joined the club in 1975 when it was owned by Hamlet Hilpert. Durr, 81, a veteran and published author, said he believed the club actually predated Hilpert but he did not know who founded it. In 1975, the game was played in the conference room of the Chehalis City Hall. Famous local names such as Bill Brunswig, Ruel West and Virgil R. Lee were among its membership. “There were many well known men who were involved with this club,” Durr said. The club was later sold to teachers Bill and Preston Pethtel, who moved the game to Evergreen Insurance Company. It and a Centralia-area club eventually merged and the new entity met

THE BASICS OF CONTRACT BRIDGE � Cards are given values by suits: spades highest; hearts second- highest; diamonds third-highest; and clubs lowest. Each suit has 13 cards with ace valued highest and deuce valued lowest. � Four players are required and the people sitting opposite each other play as teams. � All 52 cards are distributed between the players and play begins. � Points are scored by taking “tricks”. Before making plays, bidding takes place to determine if the tricks will be played with trump or non- trump suits. � All four players lay one card on the table and the highest card wins the trick for that pair.

A was established in ancient Hebrew and Old tithe also referred to a group of 10 households Testament teachings. While there may be mentions of tithing in religious documents, most scholars confirm that New Testament scriptures are most responsible for the concept of religious tithing. The Christian Church didn’t officially adopt tithing until the year 787 under Pope Adrian I. Tithing actually can be traced back even further than the beginnings of Christianity and Judaica, however. There are references to tithes as early as ancient Mesopotamian times and other eras of the Ancient Near East. A tithe may be an amount voluntarily held aside for charitable giving.
