Deadline extended

• Airport Station, 9029 Airport Blvd., Los Angeles, with mail collection and retail service until midnight;
• Industry, 15421 E. Gale Ave., with collection until midnight, and retail service until 6 p.m.;

Six tanks at the Hanford Nuclear Reservation in southeast Washington are leaking radioactive waste, the governor said Friday, calling the news “disturbing” even as he insisted there are “no immediate health risks.”
“News of six leaking tanks at Hanford raises serious questions about integrity of all single tanks,” Gov. Jay Inslee said Friday afternoon on Twitter.
Inslee said that he got the latest information about the site during a meeting in Washington with U.S. Energy Secretary Steven Chu.
For seven residents of the 37th Congressional District, history became a living, breathing entity thanks to their unique opportunity to attend the presidential inauguration in Washington, D.C.
Teacher William Pulgarin and his student Karla Espinoza and Wanda Sanders and her son Mark won tickets in the seated section of the event in a contest sponsored by Congresswoman Karen Bass ( D-Calif.), and for each the occasion was an amazing once-in-a-life time opportunity.
Every time I see a march or rally, I think of the rally of all rallies, which was the 1963 March on Washington. Forty-nine years later, there is nothing that equals that march, not in participation, nor in results.
These days, folks march to make a point, but back in the day, we marched to get legislative action.
