Way for Cowlitz Tribe Casino LA CENTER (AP) — A fed- eral appeals court has upheld the Interior Department's decision to grant a reservation to the Cowlitz Tribe in southwestern Washing- ton, rejecting efforts to block the construction of a $510 million ca- sino and resort on the land. The Columbian newspaper reported that the ruling, handed down Friday by the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia, affirmed a 2014 ruling by U.S. District Judge Bar- bara Rothstein in Seattle. The Cowlitz rejected treaty offers from the government in the 19th century, which left them without a reservation. They were formally recognized in 2002, and the Interior Department subse- quently agreed to take a parcel near La Center into trust for the tribe's reservation.

The Tigers held the lead over Tumwater until the fifth inning, where a 5-run burst turned the tables for what would become an 8-6 Tumwater victory, ending Centralia’s season. Centralia wasted no time in setting the tone, scoring 2 in the first on a fielder’s choice RBI from from Tucker McAuley along with a Payton Pockling- ton run due to a wild pitch. The T-Birds could only respond with a run from shortstop Alyssa Ub- run in the second frame. Two more runs — on an RBI double from Megan Shelley, who then scored on a pair of wild pitches — left the Tigers with a 4-1 lead going into the bottom of the fifth inning. That would be the last they would see of the lead as Tumwater’s bats came abrupt- ly to life. Tumwater’s Kaylene Glasgo Pete Caster / [email protected] started the rally with a solo home Centralia’s Payton Cline attempts to break up a double play at second base after Tumwater’s Alyssa Ubrun tosses the ball to first during a District IV 2A Softball Tourna- run.

He has struck out 21 and walked just two over his last three starts. Bloomquist drove in three runs, but the highlight was his two-run homer just inside the left-field foul pole in the sixth. It was his first long ball since Aug. 10, 2011, when Bloomquist was playing for Arizona, a span of 626 at-bats. Bloomquist’s homer came on the first pitch after Mike Zunino had doubled off the top of the wall, missing a homer by inches. Bloomquist rounded the 4 LINES+10GB bases with a wry smile on his face and appeared to be catching plenty of grief in the dugout for the long lapse between homers.

Paul Dunn / [email protected] These 5-week-old cuties are two of the latest litter of black and red German shepherd puppies at Red Oaks Shepherds in Chehalis. RedOaks Shepherds Crafts a Family’s Best Friend

Chehalis Couple Has Been Raising German Shepherds for More Than 30 Years By Natalie Johnson [email protected] Little Peanut was the small- est puppy in his litter. While his bigger brothers — and one sister — scrambled for their meals, Laurie Nicoll took the pup in her arms and fed him with a bottle. All that personal attention has made Peanut particularly fond of his snuggle time. “I think Peanut will be a love bug,” Laurie said. Now four weeks old, the diminutive German shepherd puppy is almost the same size as his littermates, and in a few short weeks will say goodbye to Red Oaks Shepherds, located in Chehalis, and to owners Laurie and Fred Nicoll, who have been raising the breed with similar loving care for more than 30 years.

Continued from Page Life 1 The dogs from Red Oaks Shepherds are all certified through the Orthopedic Foun- dation for Animals. While they carefully select their breeding stock and blood- lines, all of the dogs still have distinct personalities. Ruger is a large dog that’s friendly with people, but liable to eat a cat. Max, a smaller, younger male, is more likely to cuddle up next to one of the farm’s barn cats. “You’ve got to be aware that not all German shepherds are created equal,” Fred said. Some dogs are high-strung and well-suited for search and rescue or other jobs, others make good therapy dogs, and others still are snuggly couch potatoes.

PEANUT ISN’T THE only puppy to get personalized attention — Fred and Laurie Nicoll take so- cialization seriously. “We just enjoy creating a good German Shepherd for our customers, and we love to get the feedback,” Fred said. Owners often send back pic- tures of their dogs as they grow up. “That really makes it worth- while for us,” he said.

Owners could breed their dogs, but their puppies cannot be registered. “We, ourselves, can control the bloodlines,” Laurie said, noting that they are very selec- tive about who they sell to. The couple’s love of their dogs has kept them going through tough times, including bouts of cancer. Laurie recently went through chemotherapy and radi- ation, and said the dogs kept her active through her illness. “It keeps us going,” Fred said. “This is just a heck of a fun hobby.” It’s a fun, but sometimes heartbreaking hobby. Even after all these years and all these lit- ters, Laurie, while hugging Pea- nut tight, said she still tears up Laurie Nicoll plays with her latest litter of 5-week-old black and red German shep- when some pups go to their new herd puppies Tuesday at Red Oaks Shepherds in Chehalis.

Gautier was one of the seven Orlando police chaplains de- ployed at hospitals, family as- sistance centers and the police dispatch center that morning. Their main purpose was to com- fort the officers, deputies and civilian employees, as well as families of victims. Orlando Police Chief John Red Huber / Orlando Sentinel Mina called the chaplains an Haggeo Gautier, one of the Orlando Police Department chaplins, outside police headquarters.
