The World Cup series has taken these athletes all over Europe, to Canada this week and ending here at Schweitzer. Schweitzer Mountain Resort will host the World Cup Telemark Finals as teams from around the world will compete in this 3-day event, which will include Giant Slalom, Sprint Classic and Classic competitions. This will be the first World Cup Telemark event to be held in the United States in three years. An open-class event will be held in conjunction with the World Cup. Evening festivities will be held each night. Anyone can race in the "open" category giving novice racers a chance to race World Cup caliber courses and meet those World Cup racers.

South Division cannot handle increased traffic
South Division Street cannot support traffic for another 75 families. The street is already active enough with the Northshore traffic. There are school buses and more traffic coming out of Lilly Avenue onto South Division. People's pets have been run down — three that I know of — as a result of vehicles going way over the speed limit. There are two schools — the Montesori and the charter school, directly across and next to the proposed 10-acre subdivision — from which children walk to and from on the bike path, as well the street itself. The Federal Building is without a sidewalk so the children are forced to walk on the street.
Property tax reform must be done now
I would like to offer my compliments to the folks at Sensible Taxation of Property for their efforts to get a measure on the ballot to control our ever-increasing property taxes. They are in contact with people in other counties who have signed on to the initiative and are collecting signatures.
Oscars bring about thoughts of sports movies
Turns out the Oscars reign supreme in my household. Sunday night I was relegated to watching the Zags' game in two-minute intervals during commercial breaks — the downside to only owning one television. You see, my wife would sooner endure multiple root canals than miss her beloved Oscars.

City should repair Memorial Field, not shift problem to school district
With all due respect to Sandpoint officials, a proposal to lease a deteriorating Memorial Field to the Lake Pend Oreille School District is about as ill-conceived as something gets.

Politics can be awfully petty
Even in the "what's in it for me" world of politics, Sen. Dianne Feinstein's announcement that she would block a judicial appointment to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals seemed pretty darn petty.
