Redmond grads: rise up and make a difference
June 19, 2008 3:03 pm

So you’ve graduated, now what?
Over the past couple weeks, several hundred students from Redmond threw their flat hats into the air — knowing that they will soon come down to Earth.
Capped by throwing your caps in the air, high school graduation is a day devoted to celebrating an important point in students’ lives. Examinations are finally over, scruffiness is replaced with fancy clothes and parents admire their children for reaching the finishing line of a long marathon.
Most of all, it is a time of unrestrained optimism.

A Father’s Day snapshot | Pat Cashman
A Father’s Day snapshot | Pat Cashman
June 14, 2008 4:00 pm

Father’s Day is coming up this week, and so is my dad’s 85th birthday. I sure wish he were going to be here to celebrate both occasions, but he’s been gone for 20 years.
Digging through a bunch of old photos of him the other day, I came across one from Fathers Day 1964. I was startled. It was a photo of our entire family — me, my four brothers and mom dutifully facing the camera, posing the way conventional people do. Except for dad. He is facing backwards. Why was he facing backwards? Simply because it looked funny, I guess. Or maybe he was showing off a new haircut. There was no other reason.

With his party’s nomination in hand, would Barack Obama be better off with Hillary Clinton as his running mate?
Obviously she thinks so. If she’s not on the ticket and Obama wins, she’ll be sidelined for at least four and perhaps eight years, at which point she’ll be 68.

Family crises all about how you handle them
Family crises all about how you handle them
June 9, 2008 3:41 pm

Every family experiences painful losses. Beloved pets and family members die. So do hopes and marriages. Tragedies and accidents happen, unfortunately.
As parents, we may not be able to protect our children from crisis or loss, but we can react in a way that prevents it from tearing the family apart. What matters isn’t whether you have a crisis, but how you handle it.

Ideas, not imagery, key to changing D.C. politics
By John Carlson • June 2, 2008 3:43 pm

The Washington State Republican convention last weekend in Spokane should have been dull and uneventful.
All they had to do was approve a slate of national convention delegates to support the obvious nominee, John McCain, vote for a short, concise party platform and leave town.
Instead the tenacious Ron Paul people, who made up more than a third of the delegates, contested the McCain forces on virtually every front.

WIAA on wrong track with Bellermine decision
WIAA on wrong track with Bellermine decision
June 2, 2008 3:43 pm

The state organization that governs high school sports has stumbled in a recent decision involving girls track.
Because of it, common sense has been shoved aside in favor of a questionable rule.
The issue involves the girls 3,200-meter run at the recent Class 4A track and field meet in Pasco. One of the runners — Nicole Cochran of Bellarmine Prep — was disqualified when a judge ruled she stepped over the inside lane line during the race. Cochran dominated the race and won by three seconds, but was denied her medal.
Here’s the problem. A video of the race shows that it wasn’t Cochran who stepped over the line, but another runner.
