October 24, 2018 The Skanner Portland & Seattle Page 7 Bids & Classified Advertising deadlines 12:00 Noon Monday Hours: Monday - Friday 8:30 a.m. - 5:30 p.m. Rihanna cont’d from pg 5 reported, again quoting a source. “The offer and expo- sure would have been great for Rihanna as she’s planning a new album and tour but she stuck to what’s right in her eyes,” the source added. The refusal by Rihan- na likely came as a shock to NFL and CBS because the Super Bowl halftime show is the biggest stage in pop music and rou- tinely has an audience of more than 100 million. Some halftime shows have been legendary. Some were great and oth- ers not-so-good. Social media exploded in support of Rihanna after she turned down the biggest stage in the world. “I’m so here for @Ri- hanna turning down Super Bowl halftime to support @Kaepernick7. If you don’t stand for something, you’ll fall for anything,” wrote Twitter user @DaPrin- cess. Facebook and Insta- gram users were just as supportive, many noting that with a su- perstar making such a bold statement, Kaeper- nick’s message might fi- nally begin to penetrate inside the offices of NFL teams whose owners appear to have con- tinually mistaken the former quarterback’s kneeling as an afront to veterans and the flag. Kaepernick has main- tained that he began kneeling during the na- tional anthem to bring attention to ongoing police brutality. EDUCATION MANAGER 10-24-18 INSURANCE Sheridan cont’d from pg 6 stories are verified. “The previous policy was catch and release, which I definitely don’t agree with.” The prison is Sheri- dan’s largest employ- er, though the town of 6,000 has paid little at- tention to the migrant issue, the mayor said. The volunteers are mostly from other com- munities in the Willa- mette Valley, including Salem and Portland, Or- egon’s largest city. Kathy Daviess said she got involved be- cause “we’ve got a legal system, and it’s sup- posed to apply to every- one.” Her husband, who spent his career with the Air Force in uni- form and as a contractor, felt the immigrants were being denied due pro- cess. The migrants were granted access to law- yers after the American Civil Liberties Union of Oregon filed a lawsuit alleging they were held largely incommunicado. The detainees told feder- al public defenders they were initially confined to cells for up to 23 hours a day. “It’s not right. We don’t do that,” Norm Da- viess said. Immigration and Cus- toms Enforcement de- clined to comment, citing pending litigation. Kathleen Moss, from nearby Carlton, said it’s been rewarding to coor- dinate around 60 drivers and people offering re- spite centers. “It’s kind of taken over INVITATION TO BID Mt Hood Community College’s Head Start and Early Head Start is seeking to fill the position of Education Manager, responsible for the management of child devel- opment services for both programs providing guidance and information on current best practices about early childhood care and education.
