2012 Southwest Washington Fair

Blake Burnett, 4, Pe Ell, rethinks his decision to get on the back of Riding the a sheep during the Mutton Bustin’ show at the Southwest Washington Fair on Wild Sheep opening day. MUTTON BUSTIN’: Kids Ride Sheep Rodeo- Style for the First Time at the Fair By Amy Nile [email protected] The Southwest Washington Fair is expecting around 100,000 visitors at this year’s agricultur- ally themed event, which is fea- turing mutton bustin’ for the first time ever this year. “It’s kids riding sheep with a rodeo-type influence,” said Gale Sobolesky, the fair manager. Kids that weigh less than 55 pounds who want to ride sheep can wear helmets, vests and ropes provided by Wool Bust- ers, the Oregon-based company hosting the free activity. “Just like real bull riders,” said Jordan Pawley, a sheep wrangler for Wool Busters. “We always say the kids are doing the same thing as the pro riders, just 2,000 pounds of difference.” The company has 40 head of sheep for kids to ride either solo or with help from the three wranglers, who catch riders to keep them safe as they fall off.

HEALING TOUCH: Reflexologist Aims to Help Clients with Pain and Ailments and Bring Balance to the Body By Amy Nile [email protected] Ever since a 19-year-old Lor- na Smith broke her legs in five places in a car accident that left her disabled for a year, she knew what kind of life she wanted to have. “It made me realize life is pre- cious and I wanted to be healthy,” said Smith, who will turn 60 in September. “I want to help erad- icate pain because I know how it is.” Along with her 60th birthday, Smith is celebrating five years of helping patients with a variety of ailments through her busi- ness, Heal & Toes Therapeutic Reflexology, next month. “My whole idea is to help people get out of pain and suf- fering,” she said. “I like people to get healthy and balance their bodies.” Reflexology, which dates back 5,000 years to ancient Chi- na, India and Egypt, is a natu- ral healing system based on the theory that a microcosm of the body is reflected in the hands and feet. “I can be working on your back on your feet,” she ex- plained. “It makes sense because it’s all connected.” Smith applies specific pres- sure to points on the feet and hands to stimulate organs and energy pathways called merid- ians. “Regardless of the person’s is- sues, we do the whole body,” she said. “We’re trying to give that body balance because the body Pete Caster / [email protected] can heal if it’s relaxed.” Lorna Smith, owner of Heal & Toes Therapeutic Relexology, rubs Evelyn Newman’s feet during a relexology session at her oice on Market Boulevard in Chehalis on The technique can improve Tuesday morning. a variety of conditions includ- ing chronic pain, fibromyalgia, homemade pies. post-traumatic stress disorder, “They’re really popular with the men,” she said, smiling.

Littlerock-Area Man Shot Dead Had Been Behaving Erratically

By The Olympian An elderly man who fired at law enforcement about 12:30 p.m. Wednesday was shot and killed when officers returned fire, according to Thurston County Sheriff’s Lt. Greg Elwin. The 70-year-old man was distraught over his wife’s re- cent cancer death, neighbors said. His name is being with- held until the Thurston County coroner notifies family members. The man had been acting erratically earlier in the morn- ing, standing in the street and blocking traffic near his home in the area of Maytown and Littlerock roads, wit- nesses said. The man also fired a rifle at a passing driver, a witness said. According to Elwin: Deputies were dispatched about 11:45 a.m. The first to arrive told the man to drop his weapon, but the man in- stead fled to his home. The man then fired at deputies, and some rounds struck Littlerock Elementary School across the street. Deputies formed a perimeter, and when the man left his home out the back door, he was armed with a pistol. The man began firing from his back porch at two Thur- ston County sheriff’s deputies and a Tenino police officer. A 47-year-old deputy and a 36-year-old Tenino officer re- turned fire. The man was struck by gunfire and pronounced dead Steve Bloom / The Olympian at the scene. On Wednesday afternoon, he was lying in the Police investigate the scene of a shooting Wednesday in Littlerock.

MLB Felix Flawless in Perfecto Against Tampa Bay KING IS ACES: Hernandez Strikes Out 12 in MLB’s 23rd Perfect Game By Tim Booth The Associated Press SEATTLE — His arms out- stretched to the sky, about to be swallowed by anxious team- mates that ignored him for most of nine innings, Felix Hernandez finally conquered the pursuit of perfection he's chased since his debut as a baby-faced 19-year-old with uncontrollable curly hair and a hat that never sat straight. No more nights of wondering whether this would be the mo- ment Hernandez twirled a his- toric gem. King Felix finally has his crowning achievement. "It was always in my mind, every game. 'I need to throw a perfect game.' For every pitcher I think it's in their mind," Her- nandez said. "Today it happened and it's something special. I don't have any words to explain this. This is pretty amazing. It doesn't happen every day." Hernandez pitched the Se- attle Mariners' first perfect game and the 23rd in baseball history, overpowering the Tampa Bay Rays in a brilliant 1-0 victory Wednesday. Ted S.

Hunting, Fishing Outdoors Hiking, Birding

COMMENTARY: Under the Open Sky Go Plant Yourself t’s hot outside and it’s about to get hotter, or so says the Iweatherman. My advice is for you to enjoy the outdoors by finding a shady spot and planting yourself there. Better yet, find a shady spot near a river, lake or stream with a cool breeze, dip a line in the wa- ter and plant yourself there. I spent a couple of hours By Kimberly Mason at the Cowlitz River at Barrier Dam this week. It’s hot … and I don’t mean the fishing. The fishing is good, don’t get me wrong, but it is hard work standing in the sun. At this time last year I was standing waist deep in the Puyallup River hauling in pink salmon hand over fist.

College Football Mike Leach Takes Over WSU Football By Nicholas K. Geranios The Associated Press PULLMAN — Washing- ton State has made some big changes, hiring a new coach and dramatically upgrading the sta- dium. The question now is whether the team it puts on the field will be any different from previous versions. Former Texas Tech coach Mike Leach took over for the fired Paul Wulff and is expect- ed to bring his high-flying of- fensive schemes to the Palouse. Ticket sales and interest in WSU football are way up since Leach was hired last November. "We'll just do the best we can and try to win one game a week," Leach said. Leach was 84-43 at Texas Tech and took the Red Raiders to 10 bowl games. He was fired in 2009 amid allegations he mis- treated a player with a concus- sion. Under Wulff, the Cougars were 9-40 the past four seasons, just 4-32 in the conference. The Cougars often got blown out at home and on the road. Things did get slightly better last year, when WSU finished Dean Rutz / The Seattle Times 4-8 while being competitive in In this April 21, 2012, ile photo, Washington State head coach Mike Leach calls a timeout to work with backup quarterback Cody Clements during the Crimson and more games.
