John Kitzhaber escorts his fiancee, Cylvia Hayes, onto the House floor before he is sworn in for an unprecedented fourth term as Governor in Salem. “I am thrilled to report that things are settling down and I am fully re-engaging my professional new economy work,” Hayes wrote. “My hope and intention is that both my professional work and my writing will help generate more kindness in our world.” Her website, registered Aug. 20, features photos of Hayes and Tessa, her Rhode- sian Ridgeback, and one of her and Kitzhaber on a river- bank. An inspirational image shows a lion’s face with the Kennewick teens accused of kidnapping great-grandmother colleagues. “Going through a prolonged, intense, public ordeal would prove to be like running a marathon,” Hayes writes. “Some people showed up for me at the starting line. A few would join for stretches in the middle. Very, very few would run the whole course by my side.” Both she and Kitzhaber have also lobbed attacks at the media. Last week, Hayes issued a statement blasting The Oregonian/OregonLive for its coverage of the scandal and for reporting on thousands of emails released over the past several months.

Hayes has been the most vocal. Last week, she announced in a newsletter that she’s reviving 3E Strategies, which specializes in commu- nications for environmental groups and causes. BRIEFLY words “My scars tell a story.” “For the past year I have been in the midst of a series of very intense and traumatic experiences,” Hayes writes in one post. “I have struggled with: Burning humiliation and shame, the terror of feeling my identity and career shat- tering, painful realization of how blind I have been to my own ego, and, a deep sense of loss and abandonment.” In another post, Hayes describes feeling abandoned by former friends and PORTLAND (AP) — A Washington teenager has been accused of abducting his great-grandmother, VWXI¿QJKHULQWKHWUXQNRIKHUFDUDQGGULYLQJPRUH than 200 miles to a Walmart near Portland. The woman’s 16-year-old great-grandson enlisted the help of a 14-year-old girl and a 15-year-old boy to kidnap her, The Oregonian reports.

The great-grandmother was not injured and turned down medical treatment when deputies responded early Tuesday morning. The Walmart where she escaped gave her new clothes and food.

Tulalip Chairman Melvin EX\LQJ¿UHDUPV By MARTHA BELLISLE Associated Press Sheldon Jr. said the program will empower tribal law enforcement nationwide by giving them the tools they have sought for years to protect their communities. “It has consistently been our position that having the ability to independently report and access criminal informa- tion is the very best way to protect our citizens,” he said. Wyn Hornbuckle, a Justice Department spokesman, said the agency has focused on improving tribal access to the federal databases, but their participation hinged on regulations in the state where they are located. A working group came up with solutions to those roadblocks, leading to the new program. The shift allows tribes to conduct background checks, especially when they need to place a child with a foster parent in an emergency situa- tion, Sheldon said. Plus, they can enter tribal restraining orders into federal databases, which are used by gun dealers to ensure legal sales, he said. The restraining order against Raymond Fryberg, which should have prevented him from buying guns, was never sent to the Snohomish County clerk or entered into the National Instant Criminal Background Check System. His 15-year-old son, Jaylen, used one of his father’s guns in a mass shooting at Marysville-Pilchuck High School in October 2014. Raymond Fryberg was not charged in the shooting but later was convicted of six federal counts of illegally SRVVHVVLQJ ¿UHDUPV +H¶V scheduled to be sentenced early next year. The Tulalip Tribe urged the U.S. attorney general to grant tribes access to the databases in 2005, 2010 and 2013, but no system was established, said Francesca Hillery, a tribal spokeswoman.
