3.5 magnitude earthquake shakes
parts of northern Oklahoma
PERRY, Okla. (AP) — An earthquake has shaken parts of
northern Oklahoma.
The U.S. Geological Survey says a 3.5 magnitude earth-
quake was recorded at 2:35 a m. about 12 miles west of Perry
in Noble County. The earthquake was recorded at a depth of
about one mile.
No damage or injuries were reported. Geologists say dam-
age is not likely in quakes below magnitude 4.0 and that
earthquakes of magnitude 2.5 to 3.0 are generally the small-
est that are felt by humans.
Thousands of earthquakes have been recorded in
Oklahoma in recent years, with many linked to the under-
ground injection of wastewater from oil and natural gas pro-
duction operations.
State regulators have directed oil and gas producers to
close some disposal wells or reduce the volume of fluids they
inject in others.

Last of 4 Lincoln County Jail escapees apprehended
CHANDLER, Okla. (AP) — The last of four inmates who
escaped from the Lincoln County Jail has been apprehended
Authorities say 23-year-old Brian Allen Moody was appre-
hended by the U.S. Marshals Service in Lincoln County on
Thursday four days after fleeing from the jail.
Moody and three other inmates escaped between 1 a.m.
and 4 a.m. Monday by crawling through the jail’s ventilation
system. The remaining three inmates were apprehended ear-
lier this week.
One of the escapees. 32-year-old Jeremy Irvin, is charged
with first-degree murder. The others are accused of property
crimes.
Moody was among three inmates who escaped from the
same jail on March 16. Officials said at the time they escaped
after also crawling through the ventilation system. All three
inmates were apprehended and returned to custody before
the end of March.
Emails reiterate EPA chiefs ties to fossil fuel interests
WASHINGTON (AP) — Newly obtained emails under-
score just how closely Environmental Protection Agency
chief Scott Pruitt coordinated with fossil fuel companies
while serving as Oklahoma's state attorney general, a posi-
tion in which he frequently sued the agency he now leads.
The latest batch of Pruitt’s emails was provided to The
Associated Press on Thursday, running more than 4,000
pages. They include schedules and lists of speaking engage
ments from the years before Pruitt became the nation's top
environmental watchdog, recounting dozens of meetings
between Pruitt, his staff, and executives and lobbyists from
the oil and gas industries.
Democratic senators fought unsuccessfully to get Pruitt's
emails prior to his February confirmation vote. Shortly after
Pruitt was swom in. an Oklahoma judge ruled he had been
violating the state's public records law by withholding the
correspondence.

Tallin Pleased by President Trump’s Apprentice View
HFRAll) STAFF REPORTS
Oklahoma's Governor Mary Eallin was at the While House
yesterday and said President Tnimp's directive, which he
called a "historic announcement to train Americans fur^he
jobs of the future" aligns closely with her Oklahoma works
initiative.
“Aligning our education and workforce training programs
to provide relevant work skills will he the best w ay to keep job
growth strong." said Fallin. who was one of seven governors
at the White House for today’s signing of the executive order.
“I appreciate President Trump's leadership and commitment
to education and workforce issues, and his executive order to
make policy changes that encourage more apprenticeship pro-
grams Oklahoma has long been a leader on this issue through
the development of my statewide strategic plan named
Oklahoma Works, which helps to develop a robust workforce
and career pathways for our students It was gratifying the
president and his Cabinet recognized Oklahoma as a leading
state in workforce initiatives.”
In 2015. Fallin launched Oklahoma Works, which is
intended to ensure students are being educated for the high-
quality. high-paying jobs the state wants to retain and attract.
It was modeled after her America Works initiative she created
in 2013 when she was chairman of the National Governors
Association (NGA).
Trump said his executive order will "expand apprentice-
ships and vocational training to help all Americans find a
rewarding career, earn a great living, and support themselves
and their families and love going to work in the morning
"We will be removing federal restrictions that have pre-
vented many different industries from creating apprenticeship
programs." he said, saying the directive is "empowering"
companies, industry groups and unions to “go out and create
new apprenticeships for millions of our citizens" that would
allow them to "earn while you learn."
A group of almost two dozen administration officials, gov-
ernors. lawmakers, dignitaries and apprentices stood behind
the president as he spoke. The president met with Fallin and
others behind closed doors before the executive order signing.
Other governors attending were Matt Bevin, of Kentucky;
Dennis Daugaard. of South Dakota: Eric Greitens, of
Missouri; John Hickenlooper. of Colorado; Henry McMaster,
of South Carolina; and Scott Walker, of Wisconsin.
In March. Fallin was one of three governors who went on
an NGA-sponsored trip to Germany and Switzerland to study
apprenticeships The goal of the trip was to learn how those
countries effectively leverage apprenticeships as a key work-
force and economic development strategy, and to provide
governors with ideas as they look to build globally competi-
tive talent development systems in their states.
In (Xtober. Fallin presided over an Oklahoma Works sum-
mit. in which she outlined a plan to align education and work
skills with businesses and job openings. More CareerTech
certificates and college degrees are needed to meet the
demands of the workplace that will require higher education
levels than nearly half of Oklahomans currently have, she told

Sweethearts Struggling With a
30-Year Age Gap
DEAR ABBY: I'm in my
late 20s and have a male com-
panion who is 30-plus years
older than I am. We were
together for a while, then
stopped so we could both try
to find someone closer to our
ages. Neither of us did, and
we recently started seeing
each other again.
Although we are good for
each other and compatible in
many ways, we are realistic
that our relationship isn't
long-term for major reasons
(I want children, he's happy
with grandchildren He wants
to travel after retirement; I'm
just starting my career.) We
live for the moment and don't
dwell too much on the future
My problem is, this time
I'm really falling in love with
him Last time. I was reluctant
to become emotional because
I was afraid of getting hurl
But this time, I am all in. Can
any good come of this? We
meet each other's relationship
needs in the here and now, but
is the end just heartbreak ? --
LOVING FOR THK
MOMENT
DEAR LOVING: It's time
for you to start compiling a
list of (he pros and cons of
this romance You and this
man are at different stages of
life and have very different
goals. If you really want to
have a family and a career,
you will have to sacrifice
something for it, and that
"something" may be devoting
much more time to this man.
Sorry, but something's gotta
give.
DEAR ABBY: Recently,
my husband and I were walk
ing down the sidewalk in our
neighborhood and came
across $160 in cash strewn all
over the ground We picked it
up, and as we were doing so,
our neighbor came outside.
We knew her husband had just
gotten home, and the money
was near his car. so we asked
if it might be his. We handed
her the cash and told her to let
us know
TWo weeks have gone by
and no one has claimed it. Our
neighbor still has it in her pos-
session. and has mentioned in
passing (hat we should spend
it on toys for our kids or
lood/drinks at the next get-
together
While I think these are OK
ideas, I'm a little bitter
because my husband and I
found the money, and I feel
we should be the ones who
get to keep it if no one comes
forward to claim it. I don't
want to damage the friendship
we have with our neighbors,
but I lee! like we re losing a
bn Whal do you think ' -
FINDERS KEEPERS
DEAR FINDERS KEEP-
ERS: I think lhal before
handing over the money, you
should have had your neigh-
bor ask her husband if he had
lost any and how much
Because you didn't do that
and they have the cash, per
haps you should "remind" her
that "per her suggestion," you
would love to spend some of
it on toys for your kids, and
ask for some or all of it back
If she's a good neighbor, she'll
agree. If not. you will have
learned an expensive lesson.
DEAR ABBY: I have a
good friend I always invite to
attend parties and events She
invariably RSVPs accepting
the invitation, but never shows
up or explains her absence.
This has been going on for
years and it hurls my feelings
I)o I have to keep inviting
her? - COLOR A IK) HOST-
ESS
DEAR HOSTESS: Allow
me to offer you some insight
The woman's behavior is
extremely rude. "Good
friends" do not treat each
other this way. If you're ask-
ing my permission to scratch
her off your guest list, you
have it.
