News Coffee is Back in Wendell
If you love coffee... Rejoice. The old Pit-Stop building in Wendell is now home to a new drive-thru (and sit down) coffee shop - Latte Da Bistro. For over a year, Kristie
Sutton has been planning to open a coffee shop in Wendell. Originally, she was going to put it in the back parking lot of Simerlys, but when Sissy’s Place (379 S. Idaho St.) closed down, the
building became available and she decided to start her business there instead. All through the month of October they will be having “PINK” specials to highlight Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Kristie (center) and her intrepid crew - sister Kelli Barr (left) and Cynthia Scott (right) - have the pots hot and are ready to pour you a cup of your favorite joe (they have cold drinks too). Call ahead to 536-9954 and have your order waiting when you drive up to the window.

Tornado In Fairfield
3D Printing Comes to Shoshone Library The Shoshone Public Library has expanded its capabilities to include 3D printing with help from the Idaho Commission for Libraries’ “Make It at the Library” project. Library director Clay Ritter and children’s services coordinator Sarah Stowell learned how to operate, maintain, and troubleshoot 3D printers and employ computeraided design tools at an ICfL workshop in Boise during September. They
even brought one of the “additive-manufacturing” devices home to the library. Ritter and Stowell were among nine staff members from six Magic Valley libraries who attended the event. One-third of the 21 libraries participating in the “Make It at the Library” project statewide are based in the Magic Valley. Other local participating libraries include Buhl Public Library, Burley Public Library, DeMary continued page 8.....
Last Friday, a severe storm system went through Camas County producing rain and a small tornado. At about 3:30 p.m. on October 2, a funnel cloud was spotted about eight miles west of Fairfield near Corral. While the funnel only briefly reached the ground, it did damage a machine shed and roll a travel trailer. Accumulated precipitation over the weekend was just over a half inch.

Serving with all Gentleness & Compassion...
A person said to me, “Tee, why don’t you come of age?” I had to stop and think about that for a moment. Isn’t that what part of life is about? Reaching certain milestones in your life and going on to the next one. As I think of becoming of age, my thoughts go to some years in my life. At six I started school. One starts learning as soon as they can be held, hear, or have sight. Structured everyday process to learn usually is recognized at 6 years. When I reached the 12 year mark, I was able to fish and hunt. The 12 year mark also stated I could work and make some of my own money. Of course, every Idaho kid looked forward to the year 14 in age. At this age we were separated from the junior high class of students. At this age we seem to know everything (or at least we thought our learning gave us that boast). But, even more important... we were able to get a drivers license, and drive on a real roadway! That drivers license is like a milestone. At 15 you could drive at night with a permit, and at 16 that restriction was lifted. Today, a few things are different, but none-the-less you can obtain a drivers license in Idaho at an earlier age than a lot of states. 18 may give you some freedoms. You graduate from school or go out on your own. But, one of the most important things you are allowed to vote or make your opinion count. Each and every year after that is just as important on voting to voice your say. Early people, including myself, were able to drink at 19. Now it is 21. That is an actual year when you really have to exercise your responsibility, especially in the world of drinking and being an adult. The statistics and the government recognize you as settled in and down at 25. Your insurance rates go down. Each year you make a savings is a blessing. The economy doesn’t adjust itself to your “code of life.” The years after 25 are more or less your milestone or goal years. Of course, everyone else place criteria on certain years for you - 30, 40, 50, etc. But, as I look at the question, “Tee, why don’t you come of age?” I still think there are some years I don’t have that everyone else has. I think they are referring to technology. Admittedly, I am not with the age of electronics. I don’t have a phone computer, or a GPS system telling me where to go and how to get there. I can still read a road map, sent a letter (with a postage stamp), and use an older form of currency called cash. I am still responsible for my actions face to face without having to be totally irresponsible, hiding behind a text. I still believe in going to work and earning what I want, not expecting the world to owe me something. So for me to say I’m coming of age is to say I’m still reserved. Maybe in a few years I may come around, or not. This is my “Cup of Tee” with two minute delay. Tee Hurd

3D Printing at Shoshone Library
...Memorial Library in Rupert, Jerome Public Library, Gooding Public Library, and Twin Falls Public Library. ICfL has equipped all of the participating libraries with 3D printers. 3D printers work somewhat like ordinary printers, but instead of squirting ink onto paper they extrude thin layers of molten plastic that are built up to make solid, useful three-dimensional objects of virtually any shape. Nick Raymond, a noteworthy figure in the maker movement and a special projects engineer at Maker Media, led the event with support from Adam Day, the automation and technology services department head at Twin Falls Public Library. The “Make It at the Library” project helps libraries throughout the Gem State establish makerspaces that offer creative, STEAM-based programming for tweens and teens to encourage the use of new technologies and tools. STEAM education is similar to STEM learning (science, technology, engineering, math) but also recognizes the importance of the arts. In its third year, ICfL’s nationally renowned “Make It at the Library” project is made possible through funding from the Institute of Museum and Library Services. Visit http://libraries.idaho.gov/make-it-at-the-library and www.facebook. com/MakeItIdaho for more information on the project.
Ask Fish & Game: Big Game Cartridge Limit
Q. I understand that I can only legally have three shells in my shotgun when I hunt migratory birds, but what about hunting big game with my rifle? A. Idaho does not have a rule limiting the number of cartridges in a hunting rifle, nor for a shotgun while hunting non-migratory game birds. However, migratory bird hunters need to follow the Federal Rules found on page 21 of the 2015 Idaho Waterfowl Seasons and Rules booklet. Dine-In or Take-Out

This Week’s Crossword Solution
Sen. Grant Burgoyne of Boise will introduce a bill in the 2016 Legislature that expands the protections available to Idahoans seeking protection from stalkers. “I’ve been working on this bill for over a year and I believe that there is a clear need for stronger protections against people who break the law by stalking or harassing others,” Burgoyne said. Recently, the issue was highlighted by a tragic attack in Boise. A mother of two, who was allegedly stalked by a client from her business, was shot in her own yard. She is recovering. People were surprised to learn that the victim had twice sought protective orders against her alleged attacker—but that she was twice-refused because she had no “domestic relationship” with the man. “Stalking and harassment are not limited to domestic relationships and the law needs to recognize this fact,” Burgoyne said. Burgoyne’s bill allows people who are being stalked or harassed to get protective orders even when no domestic relationship exists. Burgoyne said his bill is an important step toward better protecting people from those who are terrorizing them. “Of course, no law can stop all stalkers and harassers, but my bill will put these lawbreakers on the radar of law enforcement and the justice system, and give the police and judges leverage in dealing with them” Burgoyne said. Burgoyne is working with representatives of various concerned advocacy and legal groups, in an effort to assure passage of this bill in the next legislative session.
