In Brief: From Wire Reports:
Senate approves protections for federal whistle-blowersWASHINGTON – The Senate on Tuesday gave final congressional approval for a bill that would significantly expand protections for federal employees who expose fraud, waste and abuse and make it easier to punish supervisors who try to retaliate against the whistle-blowers.
The whistle-blower protection measure, approved by voice vote and sent to the president, was the product of 13 years of work by organizations pushing for greater protections for the federal workforce.
The legislation closes loopholes created by court rulings, which removed protections for whistle-blowers. The new legislation expands whistle-blower rights and clarifies protections that were not explicitly clear.

The Orondo ferry, which linked Chelan and Douglas counties, has a full load
in this 1917 photo. This ferry is one of several that plied the Columbia River
under the name of the Orondo ferry. This one is believed the first ferry of the
series, which began operating about 1899. Mr. and Mrs. Earl Chandler and
later their son, Ron, operated most of the ferries until service ended in 1959.
