A Hayden Lake student has been selected as the Idaho state winner in the sixth annual Doodle 4 Google competition. Doodle 4 Google is open to K-12 students across the U.S. to redesign the Google logo according to the theme "My Best Day Ever".

Natasha DiBiase is a third grader at Lake City Junior Academy and wants to be a veterinarian when she grows up. Her doodle is called "Becoming Veterinarian" and features a vet helping animals that spell out Google. DiBiase said she was inspired after her dog got sick.

"When we rescued my dog Satchmo from the shelter he was so sick that we thought he wouldn't live," DiBiase said, "Our veterinarian helped Satchmo get better. It made me want to be able to do the same someday."

DiBiase's doodle is one of the state winners selected from more than 130,000 students who submitted drawings this year nation wide. DiBiase's doodle will be displayed in a special exhibit at the American Museum of Natural History in New York at the end of May along with all 50 state winners.

Fresh Start Warming Center in Coeur d'Alene is fighting the mid-winter blues by keeping its doors open more days this year than any in year's past, according to executive director Howard Martinson.

The center expects to be open for at least a few days this week with cold temperatures and winter storms rolling in.

“We've been open a lot this year, more than any other year,” Martinson said, because this year they raised the “trigger point” for opening the center overnight from 20 to 25 degrees. Fresh Start checks the National Weather Service every day and if it is projected to be 25 or less, homeless people in the area can expect to stay at the shelter.

Martinson estimates that the center hosts 17-20 people on average, but they have enough space for 30. If more than 30 people were to show up seeking a place to warm up, an overflow shelter is ready at St. Luke's Episcopal Church.
