In an unbelievable finish the Seattle Seahawks win the championship game and go to the Super Bowl. The Hawks didn't play the game until the end of the 4th quarter. Then they tied it and into overtime where they won the game on the first drive for the big bopper of Bowls ticket. This is a chance to finally win the big one...and who goes with them? Coming up
A shooting Saturday morning at a mall
in central Florida left two people dead and one other injured in what
police called a "domestic situation."
Police in
Melbourne, Florida, said the gunman — identified as Jose Garcia
Rodriguez, 57 — shot his wife, Ida Garcia, 33. Melbourne Police said
they believe Rodriguez then turned the gun on himself and died from a
self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Police said the
wife, who is a mall employee who works in the food court, was the
intended target. She was listed in good condition at a hospital Saturday
afternoon.
Police did not confirm the name of the deceased person or specify that person's relationship with Rodriguez or Garcia.
Author Lindstrom Discusses Infamous Grays Harbor Man
Was John Tornow a murderous wildman or misunderstood loner? Veteran newsman Bill Lindstrom has pursued the truth about John Tornow for almost 3 decades. The outcome of this work is a new book, “John Tornow: Villain or Victim?” Lindstrom will present a slide show and discuss the book, the research and the Tornow legend at the Lacey Timberland Library on Saturday, January 31 from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m.This meticulously researched history reads like a blend of mystery and tragedy as it reinterprets the life of an enigmatic man accused of heinous crimes. A veteran news reporter, Lindstrom poured over century-old court documents, transcriptions, contemporary news articles and interviews to produce an authoritative and compassionate account. He brings the Tornow family’s life and times alive, describing the daily routines and personal sorrows that led up to multiple murders, a 19-month manhunt and an enduring Northwest legend. Books will be available for sale and signing at this event. All programs at Timberland libraries are free and open to the public.

Thank you to everyone who organized Winterfest this year. Although I
have done nothing to help, nor attended any of the events, I appreciate
their efforts, and would love to see it happen again next year. Maybe
next year I won't get sick and can get involved. Shilah Moores
Up to 24 wolves in British Columbia just north
of Idaho will be shot by helicopter gunners this winter in an effort to
save the 18 remaining southern Selkirk Mountains woodland caribou
from extinction.
The Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resources formally announced the wolf removal effort Thursday, but the planning has been underway for more than a year, said Wayne Wakkinen, Idaho Fish and Game Department regional wildlife manager in Coeur d’Alene.
Both the predators and their prey roam across the U.S.-Canada border into North Idaho and the northeastern corner of Washington. The caribou have been listed as an endangered species in the United States since 1984, and they’re also protected in British Columbia.
