An Executive Proclamation from Governor Mary Fallin was filed on Sept. 29, 2014, ordering Mitchell Harriman to fill the vacancy in the office of Cimarron County Commissioner, Dist. 3 due to the resignation of Tommy Grazier. Mr. Harriman was sworn into office by Associate District Judge Ron Kincannon on Sept. 2, 2014. photo by Colleen Allen
By C.F. DavidMitchell Harriman, 60,
of rural Keyes has taken the vacant seat on the Cimarron County Commission.
Harriman, a Democrat on the November ballot against then Republican incumbent Tommy Grazier, was placed in the position by an Executive Proclamation from Governor Mary Fallin. Grazier had resigned under a cloud when he pleaded guilty to taking gasoline from a county fuel tank. (Grazier has withdrawn his name from the Nov. 4 ballot.)
Asked why he had decided to run for the office, Harriman replied, “Well to give the county better representation.” Harriman added that he had been asked by several people to run against Grazier.
“I am a registered Democrat because back in the day you had to be a democrat to vote, and besides when you are 18 [eligible to vote] you kind of do what your parents do.”
“But I like to think of myself as kind of down the middle of the road instead of too far right or left.”
Though still trying to get his feet on the ground and find his way in the new position,
Harriman Takes Vacant Seat on Cimarron County
CommissionHarriman said he has a few ideas and plans.
“I am looking to get some newer equipment. I have a meeting set to learn how to plan out a five-year budget. Some of the things that will happen will be from Tommy’s budget and even some from Bill Percifield’s budget,” he explained.
“I think I have a good crew, they all seem to be hard workers. My foreman, Bron Gardner has been doing a good job.”
“I have a good secretary, Metzi Presley, I am going to be leaning (depending) on her and Bron a lot.”
“He [Bron] is out there, he knows what has to be done and he runs it by me first. I am still learning where all of our graded roads are.” (The District 3 voting district runs to the East side of Boise City, but the District’s purview of roads begins further east.-Ed.)
“I am also depending on the other commissioners [Chairman John Freeman-Dist. 2; Danny Bass, Dist. 1] and Colleen [County Clerk Colleen Allen] to help me too,” Harriman said.
Newly sworn District 3 Cimarron County Commissioner Mitch Harriman
By C.F. DavidMelis Sarbalkan, 16, is
German by birth and Turkish by heritage.
She will spend eight months in Cimarron County while she attends school at Boise City High School.
Melis speaks five languages, German, Turkish, English, French and Latin.
She is a vegetarian, because, “It’s just a choice.” She has been a vegetarian since she was 12.
Melis said she hasn’t had a problem of being homesick (she’s been here a month and a half) because she can stay in touch by phone and texting.
She lives in the German City of Heilbronn, population of just over 17,000, (a little larger than Borger or Dumas, Texas). Heilbronn is about an hour and a half’s drive to the much larger and better known Stuttgart. The two cities are famous for and their economies dependent on, automobiles, and their parts, with factories turning out Mercedes-Benz, Daimler, Porsche and Bosch.
Asked why she decided to be an exchange student she answered, “I wanted to
Melis SarbalkanMelis Sarbalkan Comes to BCHS
from Germanyexperience the real American way of life, and not the one in the movies.”
Asked if she chose a smaller community, she smiled and shook her head, “We don’t get to choose where we live, it’s just wherever the host family lives. I am happy here; it doesn’t have to be a large city.”
Melis lives with her mother and a younger brother 13 years old; their father died suddenly when Melis was just a toddler.
Her mother works in what we in the U.S. would call a nursing home.
Her father’s family still live in Turkey and her maternal grandparents live in Germany.
W h e n s h e g o e s t o University, Melis wants to study Psychology; “Because I am interested in Psychology, anatomy, the human body. I want to be a Psychiatrist.”
Asked why, she chose the United States as a foreign exchange student, Melis replied, “I wanted to know the American way of life better, and I hope to improve my English.”
As well as attending classes, Melis is involved in Cross Country, StuCo and Academic Bowl.
Voters Should Apply Early for Absentee Ballots Voters in Cimarron County who want to have absentee ballots mailed to them for the November 4 Federal, State, and County General Election should apply now, County Election Board Sec-retary Courtney Menefee said today. Although the County Election Board can accept ap-plications for absentee ballots until 5 p.m. on Wednesday, October 29, Menefee urged voters who want to vote by absentee ballot to apply early. Absentee ballot applica-tion forms are available at the County Election Board office located at the Cimar-ron County Courthouse. The absentee ballot application forms also can be download-ed and printed at: www.elec-tions.ok.gov. Voters who have requested an absentee ballot can track their ballot at http://www.ok.gov/elections/Voter_Info/Online_Voter_Tool/. “At least two mail transac-tions must be made,” Mene-fee said. “The County Elec-tion Board must mail the ballots to the voter and the voter must return the voted ballots by mail.” Ballots must be in the hands of the County Election Board by 7 p.m. on election day in order to be counted. Menefee said that any reg-istered voter may vote by ab-sentee ballot in any election in which he/she is eligible to vote. However, a voter must be registered and reside at an address within the geographi-cal boundaries of a school district or a municipality to be eligible to vote in school dis-trict or municipal elections. It is not necessary to give a rea-son—or excuse—for voting absentee. “While anyone can vote absentee without giving a reason, the law still provides several excuses, and it is to the advantage of some voters to use one of them,” Menefee said. By stating one of the fol-lowing reasons on their appli-cations, these voters can acti-vate some special conditions that make it easier for them to use absentee ballots. The reasons are: • Voters who are physically incapacitated and voters who care for physical-ly incapacitated persons who cannot be left unattended may vote absentee. They may ap-ply only by mail, by fax, or by email. • Voters who are con-fined to nursing homes in the county may vote absentee. An Absentee Voting Board actually goes to the nursing home a few days before the election, sets up a small poll-ing place and allows these persons to vote under circum-stances similar to those at a regular precinct polling place. They may apply only by mail, by fax, or by email. • Military personnel and residents of the county living overseas and the spouses and dependents of each group are eligible re-ceive absentee ballots. These voters may apply only by mail, fax, or by email. Mili-tary personnel should contact the Voting Service Officers in their units for application forms and additional infor-mation or visit the Federal Voting Assistance Program website (www.fvap.gov/okla-homa) for more information and instructions. Residents of Oklahoma living overseas can obtain the same materi-als from any United States military installation and from United States Embassies and Consulates as well as on the FVAP website.
G U Y M O N — P T C I i s bringing the latest high-performance, high-speed 4G LTE technology to the Panhandle with up to 10 times faster service and a significant expansion of the tower network to substantially increase the quality of service. PTCI turned up its new 4G LTE network on September 24.
The PTCI 4G LTE network now connects 34 strategically placed towers across the Panhandle, boosting coverage and quality to deliver high-speed video, voice and data to smartphones, laptops, gaming devices, wireless modems and other mobile devices. In comparison, the other major national competitor has only 9 towers to serve the entire Panhandle.
“ We l i s t e n e d t o o u r customers. This new network is our commitment to them to provide much faster service on an enhanced, comprehensive technology platform at a cost that makes PTCI much more a ffo rdab le ,” sa id Shawn Hanson, PTCI’s CEO.
PTCI Brings 4G to Panhandle
“This robust technology not only improves service but also allows us to offer an unprecedented new range of phone choices and service plans to our customers.”
PTCI is locally owned with four stores across the Panhandle to better serve customers. PTCI is the only communications company in the region that provides local sales and technical support.
“The Panhandle is our home; our customers are our neighbors. We have committed to this massive technology upgrade with a simple message to former customers who have tried other networks – come home,” Hanson concluded.
Panhandle Te lephone Cooperative Inc. was founded in Guymon, Oklahoma in 1954. In addition to its broadband technologies, PTCI provides digital TV to the Oklahoma and Texas Panhand les . PTCI’s main headquarters are in Guymon with Oklahoma stores located in Laverne, Beaver and Boise City, with additional stores located in Perryton and Spearman Texas.

The day for elections drawsnear and many people are turn-ing their attention to politics. TheNovember 4th elections will de-termine county officers, districtraces for House and Senatemembers, statewide officials andUS House and Senate seats. Itwill also determine judicial racesand the state has three StateQuestions on the ballot.
In the next three weeks I willgive an overview of the racesthat will be on the ballot thisNovember. I will not be givingmy preferences in the races, butwill give information about thecandidates in the different races.District 61 will not have anyState House or Senate races, butit will have county, national, andjudicial races.
There will be three StateQuestions on the Oklahoma bal-lot for 2014. Each person vot-ing will have the opportunity to
vote “Yes” (for the question) or“No” (against the question). Be-low is a short synopsis of eachquestion.
Sate Question 769 is a mea-sure that would amend the stateConstitution to allow Oklahomaofficeholders to serve and becalled to active duty in certainmilitary positions. This includedserving as enlisted members ofthe National Guard, The Na-tional Guard Reserve, the Okla-homa State Guard and the Of-ficers Reserve Corps of theUnited States.
Currently certain office hold-ers such as legislators, statejudges, district attorneys andmember of state boards andagencies can’t hold certain mili-tary positions. Voting “Yes”would allow this to occur.
State Question 770 and StateQuestion 771 both pertain to thehomestead tax exemption for in-dividuals. State Question 770would expand a property tax ex-emption for disabled veteransand their spouses. A “Yes” votewould allow that exemption tobe claimed by either the disabled
vet or their spouse.The last State Question deals
with the surviving spouse of aveteran killed in the line of duty.This would allow that spouse toclaim a property tax exemptionwhen a veteran is killed in theline of duty.
Although one would think thatthis would be covered under thedisable exemption, it is not. Thisis why a separate State Ques-tion is need to make sure that asurviving spouse of a veterankilled in the line of duty has thesame rights as if the veteran hadbeen disabled. A “Yes” votewould allow the survivingspouse of a veteran killed in theline of duty the ability to claiman exemption on property tax.
Next week I will cover thestatewide races of Governor, Lt.Governor, and the Labor Com-missioner. I will also cover theU.S. Senate race that will be onthe ballot for voters in District61. If your have questions aboutthe State Questions, or otherconcerns, please contact me atthe Capitol at 405-557-7384 orat my home in Laverne.
10 THINGS GOD CANNOT DO
I wonder, what is your con-cept of God? I looked to seehow Merriam-Webster Dictio-nary describes God. The firstdefinition given is, “A being con-ceived of as possessing super-natural power,…”(www.websterdictionary.org) Italso describes God as, “The Su-preme Being, the eternal and in-finite Spirit, the Creator, and. theSovereign of the Universe, Je-hovah.” Most who believe inGod would agree – God hasgreat power. God can create.God can destroy. God can re-store. God offers to forgive.God is able to always be presentwith us if we will invite him tobe. God gives hope. God cre-ates life. God listens to us whenwe pray. The list could go onand on.
As a child, I was blessed tobe raised in a Christian home. Iremember learning in SundaySchool as a child three basiccharacteristics of God: God isall-knowing; God is alwayspresent; God is all-powerful. Weread in Scripture, “With man thisis impossible, but with God allthings are possible” (Matthew19:26). But, I would suggest toyou that there are 10 things thatGod can not do.
The first is that God can notget tired. In Isaiah 40:28 weread, “Have you not known?Have you not heard? The Lordis the everlasting God, the Cre-ator of the ends of the earth. Hedoes not faint or grow weary;his understanding isunsearchable.” When emotionalfatigue sets in, we can feel freeto go to God. God can give usstrength for the trials. He is al-ways available – day and night.Like a loving father, God is readyto help us up when we fall down;ready to hold us close, when weneed comfort. God is alwaysready to give us strength forwhat God calls us to do. Henever gets tired.
The second thing God can notdo is to take on a job he can’thandle (Jeremiah 32:17). Godcreated all that is. God createdyou and me. Nothing is too hardfor God. God has got this! Thethird thing is that God can notbe unholy. In Isaiah 6:3 one ser-aph calls out to another seraph(a seraph had six wings: two theyused to cover their faces, twothey used to cover their feet, andtwo they used to fly with; theywere attending the Lord as hesat on a throne), “’Holy, holy,holy is the Lord of hosts; thewhole earth is full of his glory.’”God is holy. He wants the bestfor all of his creation. That in-cludes you and me.
Fourthly, God can not beprejudiced. God does not havebetter plans for one race or onecountry than another. God doesnot decide who is worth lovingand who is not based on theirskin color, what language theyspeak, or whether they are na-tionals or immigrants. Neithershould we. God looks at theheart. In Acts 10:34-35 Peterpreaches that, “…God shows nopartiality, but in every nationanyone who fears (respects) himand does what is right is ac-ceptable to him.” God’s love,forgiveness, and new life is avail-able to all who believe Jesus diedfor their sins, rose again, and askGod’s forgiveness for sin in theirlife.
The fifth is that God cannever break a promise (Psalm89:34). We might break ourpromises to others, or even toGod; but, God always keeps hispromises. Sixth is that God cannot remember sins he has cho-sen to forget. In Isaiah 43:25we read, “I, I am He who blotsout your transgressions (sins)for my own sake, and I will notremember your sins.” Forthose who have told God theyare sorry for their sins and haveasked God to forgive them, it’sa promise!
The seventh thing God cannot do is to make a “loser.” Godcreated you. God gave you thegift of life. The Psalmist writes,“For it was you who formed myinward parts; you knit me to-gether in my mother’s womb. Ipraise you, for I am fearfully
and wonderfully made” (Psalm139:13-14). God has a plan anda purpose for your life: “’For Iknow the plans I have for you,’declares the Lord, ‘plans toprosper you and not to harmyou, plans to give you hope anda future’” (Jeremiah 29:11). Wemay feel that we have failed ourfamily, a spouse, a teacher, oreven God some times; but, Godsees possibilities and potential forour lives.
Next, God can not…God willnot…abandon you. “The Lordhimself goes before you and willbe with you; he will never leaveyou nor forsake you. Do not beafraid; do not be discouraged”(Deut. 31:8). God offers to al-ways be with you, if you willinvite him to be. The ninth thingGod can not do is to stop think-ing about you. He knows youby name: “I have inscribed youon the palms on my hands;…”(Isaiah 49:16).
Finally, the tenth thing Godcan not do is to stop loving you(Jeremiah 31:3; Romans 5:8).John 3:16 describes God’s lovewell, “For God so loved theworld…that he gave his onlySon, so that everyone who be-lieves in him may not perish butmay have eternal life.” At timesGod does not love the choiceswe make. God allows us to ex-perience consequences when wechoose to do other than God’swill. But, good parents correcttheir children when they makebad choices. Why? Becausethey love them and they wantthem to learn to make goodchoices. The same is true ofGod’s love for us. And, as aparent never stops loving theirchild, so God’s love for us neverends.
May we not treat God’s lovecarelessly. May we never takeGod’s love for granted. May wechoose to live a life of love to-wards God who never gives upon us. I don’t know about you,but I am glad that there are somethings God can not do!
Because of God’s AmazingLove,

A DIVERSITY OFDIABETES PILLS BY
JIMMY WEAVER D.PH. If you or someone you love
has diabetes, you know howimportant it is to manage it well.What happens if you don’t?You’re at risk for serious com-plications that can affect yourheart, kidneys, eyes, andnerves—to name a few.
Some people can manage dia-betes with meal planning, weightloss, and exercise alone. Othersalso need medication. Pills tolower blood sugar levels are onetype of drug used to treat diabe-tes.
Can diabetes pills help you?Not if you have type 1 diabetes.Do you have type 2 diabetes?Then, you’re more likely to ben-efit if you’ve had diabetes forless than 10 years and your bodystill makes insulin. That’s thehormone that regulates sugar lev-els in your blood.
There is more than one typeof diabetes pill, and the FDA hasapproved several new ones inthe recent past. Sometimes com-bining more than one type is thebest solution. Or, your doctormay prescribe pills plus insulin.
There are many classes ofdiabetes pills. They help youcontrol your diabetes in differ-ent ways. These drugs may doone or more of these things:
·Stimulate the pancreas torelease more insulin· Decrease the amount of
sugar the liver produces·Make muscle tissue more
sensitive to insulin·Help insulin work better·Lower blood sugar, but only
when it gets too high in yourbody· Help the kidney get rid of
extra sugar, which lowers levelsin your blood
·Block the breakdown ofstarches such as pasta and pota-toes, and slow the breakdownof certain sugars, which slowsthe rise of sugar levels after eat-ing· Both lower cholesterol and
reduce blood sugar.
Isn’t it amazing how manydifferent ways these drugs work?If one doesn’t work well for youor if it stops working, anothermay be more successful. That’sbecause doctors and scientiststhink that the cause of type 2diabetes is not the same for allpeople with the disease.
If your doctor has prescribedone of these drugs, I can pro-vide you with more information.To help avoid interactions withother drugs, print a list of allyour medications, both prescrip-tion and over the counter. Bringthat list with you when you cometo talk to me.
I can answer other questions
you might have about yourmedication, such as:
1. Are there special instruc-tions for this medication?
2. Do I need to take the medi-cine with meals or at certaintimes of day?
3. Should I avoid taking thismedication with any foods, vita-mins, or supplements?
4. What are the most com-mon short-term and long-term ef-fects of this drug? 7
As you can see, the arsenalfor fighting diabetes just keepsgrowing – and we haven’t eventouched on new injectable andinhaled medications. Let’s savethat for another day!

NEW OKLAHOMANATIONAL REGISTER
LISTINGSOklahoma City — The Okla-
homa Historical Society, StateHistoric Preservation Office, ispleased to announce six newNational Register of HistoricPlaces listings. The NationalRegister of Historic Places is ournation’s official list of propertiessignificant in our past. The Meloy House, at 131 W.
Carson Dr., is located in Mus-tang. It is an excellent exampleof a first-generation house inCanadian County, representingthe earliest settlement in the area.While the original downtownarea of Mustang is nonextant andmany of the surrounding housesare no longer extant, the MeloyHouse has been saved fromdemolition. It was first occupiedby Dr. R. C. Meloy and the mini-mal changes to the building re-flect very few owners over time. The Depew Route 66 seg-
ment is located west of down-town Depew in Creek County.This segment was constructed in1925, designated as U.S. 66 in1926 and remained so until thenewly constructed, straighteralignment of U.S. 66 bypassedthis curving road segment. Thissegment is significant as it reflectsthe changes in transportationtechnology and social trends evi-dent in the changing traffic pat-terns on U.S. Highway 66. It isalso significant as a good exampleof road construction reflectingtechnological advances of itstime, typical of U.S. 66 in Okla-homa in the 1920s. The Kelley Club, at 2300 N.
Kelley Ave., is located in northcentral Oklahoma City. Thebuilding is significant for its as-sociation with Alcoholics Anony-mous (AA), the group whosemission is to assist alcoholics in
finding and maintaining sobriety.Through its Twelve Step pro-gram, AA has enabled, and con-tinues to enable, Oklahomans toachieve and sustain permanentsobriety. The Kelley Club had,and still has, a significant impacton the residents of OklahomaCity as well as the treatment andunderstanding of alcoholism. The Oklahoma City Ford
Motor Company Assembly Plantin downtown Oklahoma City isan excellent example of a manu-facturing facility designed specifi-cally for the assembly of auto-mobiles through a process pio-neered by the Ford Motor Com-pany. Famed industrial architectAlbert Kahn designed the origi-nal building for Ford in 1915 andits expansion in 1924. The build-ing retains character-defining fea-tures of the automobile manufac-turing facility: long open floorplan, large expanses of windowsfor light and ventilation andKahn’s signature octagonal con-crete columns with splayed capi-tals. Long Branch Creek Bridge is
located in northwestern Payne
County in the vicinity ofStillwater. Constructed in 1910,this Pratt Half-Hip Pony Truss,in its heyday, was one of themost common bridge types usedin rural America. Today it is oneor two remaining Pratt Half-HipTruss bridges in Payne County. The Waynoka Telephone
Exchange Building, located onMain Street in Waynoka, is sig-nificant in the area of Architec-ture as it is the only Art Decostyle building in Waynoka. It isalso significant for its telephone-related function in Waynoka asthe only remaining example rep-resenting technological expan-sion and corporate consolidationin the development of telephoneservices for the residents of thecommunity. Listing in the National Reg-
ister is an honorific designationthat provides recognition, lim-ited protection and, in somecases, financial incentives forthese important properties. TheSHPO identifies, evaluates andnominates properties for thisspecial designation.

PANHANDLECHILDREN IN
CRISIS Our panhandle children are
in need. Their need is real and itis great. Fiscal Year 2013, theOklahoma Department of Hu-man Services received 70,976reports of child abuse and neglect,statewide, of which 57,088 wereinvestigated and/or assessed. That’s up from 44,232 that wereinvestigated in fiscal year 2012. Of Oklahoma’s investigated
reports of child abuse or neglectin 2013, 17 investigations wereconducted in Cimarron County,37 in Beaver County, and 213 inTexas County. That’s more thanKingfisher, Woods, or Majorcounties. With threats of harm, physi-
cal abuse, drug abuse, and ne-glect, Oklahoma’s children are inneed of emergency care andplacements outside of the home,until it is deemed safe to return. These emergency placements
occur with very little notice andlast for no more than 48 hours. Panhandle Services for Childrenworks diligently to get the chil-dren into safe, loving, and ap-propriate homes. In manycases, an emergency bed is ashort-term stop while case work-ers determine whether a relativeor other significant person in thechild’s life is an appropriateguardian. In other cases, a tem-porary placement can keep thechild from having to move to adifferent community until a lo-cal foster home becomes avail-able. Panhandle Services for Chil-
dren is looking for EmergencyPlacement homes in Texas,Beaver, and Cimarron counties. They are in need of commu-nity-minded, loving people will-ing to open their homes for nomore than 48 hours. Sometimesjust 5 or 6 hours; to allow chil-dren of any age a place to laytheir heads, have a warm meal,(Continued on page 5)

New Geology CurriculumDistributed to 4-H Clubs
Around the StateFree curriculum includesnew workbooks and rock
kits for studentsOklahoma City, Oct. 13,2014 –The OklahomaEnergy Resources Board(OERB) is improvinggeology education forstudents in Oklahoma,through a new curriculumcreated specifically for thestate’s 4-H clubs.
Previously, 4-H clubs’geology materials hadn’tbeen updated since the
1950s, and didn’t includeany Oklahoma-specificinformation. Students wereeither using outdatedtextbooks, or didn’t haveaccess to any type ofgeology curriculum.
Recognizing the desperateneed for an update, theOERB education staffworked over severalmonths with OSU geologyprofessor Dr. Jim Puckettto complete a new geologycurriculum for 4-H clubs.The materials includeworkbooks with relatedactivities, and unique rocksamples.
“Students need to knowmore about our state and itsgeological diversity,” saidCarla Schaeperkoetter,education director for theOERB. “At the same time,the materials will teachimportant underlyingconcepts in petroleumgeology, such as rockporosity and permeability.”
The workbooks includeactivities on specificgeological formationsaround Oklahoma. Therock kits include 10 rocksamples that are used toaccompany the activitiesand give a better, hands-onunderstanding of theconcepts.
Over the summer, theOERB mailed the newgeology workbooks androck kits to all 77 4-Hcounty extension offices inthe state, ensuring that anystudents interested in usingthe materials will haveaccess to them.
“This is a fresh new lookat geology,” said MindyStitt, executive director of
the OERB. “If students areinterested in rocks, it’sanother way to show themthey can have a career ingeology.”
In addition to projectssuch as the 4-H geologycurriculum, the OERBoffers a total of eightcurricula to teachers: LittleBits for students inkindergarten through 2nd
grade, Fossils to Fuel 1and Fossils to Fuel 2 for3rd through 5th grade, PetroActive for middle schoolstudents in 6th through 8th
grade and Core Energy forhigh school students whichhas four different focusareas: math, science, socialstudies and language arts.The OERB created many ofthe geology activitiesbased on the OERB’s PetroActive middle schoolcurriculum.

Attorney GeneralScott Pruitt Calls
on Feds toWithdraw
“Waters of theU.S.” Rule
OKLAHOMA CITY – At-torney General Scott Pruitt calledfor the EPA and the U.S. ArmyCorps of Engineers to withdrawthe currently proposed “watersof the United States” rule andreplace it with a common-sensealternative.
Attorney General Pruitt sub-mitted a comment letter on theproposed rule of the EPA andCorps of Engineers to expand thedefinition of the “waters of theUnited States” that are navigableand therefore fall under regula-tion of those agencies.
The comments describe howthe proposed rule’s overly broaddefinition of navigable “waters ofthe United States” would placevirtually every river, creek,stream, along with vast amountsof neighboring lands, under thejurisdiction of the EPA and Corpsof Engineers. The comments alsodetail how the rule violates theagencies’ authority under theClean Water Act.
“The proposed rule unlaw-fully and unconstitutionally as-serts federal control over localwater and land by needlessly re-placing state and local land-usemanagement with top-down,federal control. If this rule wereput into practice, ditches andponds that only hold water whenit rains would be regulated by theEPA and Corps of Engineers.This rule should be withdrawnand replaced with a common-sense alternative that respectsstates’ primary responsibility overlands and waters within their bor-ders while also giving land own-ers clear guidance,” AttorneyGeneral Pruitt said.
“The EPA has a role as an ar-biter to deal with water qualityand air quality issues that crossstate lines, but the agencyshouldn’t be used to pick ‘win-ners and losers’ or to expand thescope of the federal governmentbeyond the authority granted byCongress. This rule appears tobe yet another attempt by fed-
eral agencies to implement anagenda through rules and regu-lations to affect land use deci-sions that should be left to thestates and private property own-ers,” Attorney General Pruittsaid.
The attorneys general of Ala-bama, Alaska, Georgia, Kansas,Louisiana, Nebraska, NorthDakota, South Carolina, SouthDakota and West Virginia alsosigned the letter. The governorsof Iowa, Kansas, Mississippi,Nebraska, North Carolina andSouth Carolina also signed theletter.
FERAL HOGS RUNNINGWILD THROUGHOUT
THE STATE By Sean Hubbard STILLWATER, Okla. –
While they are not native to theUnited States, feral hogs havemade Oklahoma their home,and farmers and ranchers havethe damage on their property toprove it. When feral hogs are on your
property there are several indi-cators that give away theirstealthy lifestyle, said DwayneElmore, Oklahoma State Uni-versity Cooperative Extensionwildlife specialist. “They have tracks that are
similar to deer, but morerounded,” he said. Rooting is the most evident
footprint left by hogs, however.In softer soils, the rooted areascan be up to 3 feet deep, leav-ing large wallows. They rootaround a lot looking for food,usually in broad areas leavingmassive soil disturbances, lossof plant material and erosionproblems. The hogs then rub ontrees, removing bark and leav-ing mud plastered to treetrunksa few feet off the ground. Counties in the southeast
portion of the state have biggerpopulations, but feral hogs havebeen leaving destruction in theirpaths throughout Oklahoma. “They are very difficult to
control,” said Elmore. “Exclu-sion is almost never practical,leaving lethal control as the bestoption.” Hog hunters enjoy the sport,
while farmers cringe at thethought of their crops being rav-aged by the intruders. Picking off a hog or two at
a time through hunting maymake landowners feel like theyare taking care of the problem,however, many times the hogsjust stop moving during the dayand do their damage at night.Elmore said trapping entiregroups at a time is much moreeffective. “To catch an entire group,
consisting anywhere from fiveto 20 animals, we want to con-struct a large, round trap,”Elmore said. “If there are cor-ners, large pigs will pile up andsome will escape.” An effective way of con-
structing a trap like this is withthe use of cattle panels, placedin a circular fashion with T-poststightlysecuring them to theground. “They will root under the
panels, so make sure they arestrongly secured,” he said. “Youwant to prebait the trap so thehogs get used to coming in be-fore setting it.” The Samuel Roberts Noble
Foundation has informationavailable online at noble.org,which includes various traps andmethods of trap construction.

USDA Announces Mea-sures to Help Farmers Diver-sify Weed Control Efforts
WASHINGTON, Oct. 15,2014 — Agriculture SecretaryTom Vilsack today announcedseveral steps that the U.S. De-partment of Agriculture (USDA)is taking to address the increaseof herbicide resistant weeds inU.S. agricultural systems.
"Weed control in major cropsis almost entirely accomplishedwith herbicides today," saidVilsack. "USDA, working in col-laboration with the Environmen-tal Protection Agency, must con-tinue to identify ways to encour-age producers to adopt diversetactics for weed management inaddition to herbicide control. Theactions we are taking today arepart of this effort."
Today USDA is announcingseveral of the steps it is taking tohelp farmers manage their her-bicide resistant weed problemsin a more holistic and sustain-able way:
USDA's Natural ResourceConservation Service (NRCS)will offer financial assistanceunder its Environmental QualityIncentives Program (EQIP) forherbicide resistant weed controlpractices that utilize IntegratedPest Management plans andpractices.
Later this year NRCS willbe soliciting proposals under theConservation Innovation Grants(CIG) Program for innovativeconservation systems that ad-dress herbicide resistant weeds.
USDA's Animal and PlantHealth Inspection Service(APHIS) will actively promoteuse of best management prac-
tices (BMPs) in design protocolsfor regulated authorized releasesof genetically engineered (GE)crops and will include recom-mendations for BMPs with theauthorization of field trials of HRcrops.
USDA is partnering withthe Weed Science Society ofAmerica (WSSA) and is provid-ing funds to develop educationand outreach materials for vari-ous stakeholders on managingherbicide–resistant weeds. TheSecretary has directed Dr. SherylKunickis, Director of the USDAOffice of Pest ManagementPolicy, as the point person lead-ing this effort with the USDA.
The issue of herbicide resis-tant weeds has become one ofincreasing importance for agricul-ture. When herbicides are repeat-edly used to control weeds, theweeds that survive herbicidetreatment can multiply andspread.
With EPA's announcementtoday on the registration of newuses for herbicide mixtures con-taining the herbicides 2,4-D andglyphosate (in the Enlist® formu-lation) in conjunction with newgenetically engineered crop vari-eties, farmers are being offeredone more new tool to better man-age emerging populations of her-bicide-resistant weeds in corn andsoybeans crops. In its decisionfor 2,4-D use on geneticallymodified corn and soybean, EPAhas outlined new requirementsfor registrants as part of a prod-uct stewardship program.
The USDA Office of PestManagement Policy worked withEPA to address the issue of her-bicide resistance through appro-priate label language that will re-quire registrants to develop astewardship program for the her-bicide, develop training and edu-cation on proper use of the prod-uct that includes diversifyingweed management, investigateand report nonperformance, anddevelop and implement aremediation plan for suspectedherbicide resistant weeds.
EPA intends to require thesame stewardship plans for allnew applications for product reg-istration on genetically modifiedcrops with the goal being to en-courage effective resistance man-agement while maintainingneeded flexibility for growers.
USDA recognizes that theproblem of herbicide resistantweed control will not be solvedsolely through the application ofnew herbicides. USDA hasworked with the Weed ScienceSociety of America for a num-ber of years on identifying bestmanagement practices for farm-ers and on addressing impedi-ments to adoption of those prac-tices.
USDA will continue to workto ensure that growers have thediverse tools they need to addressthe management of herbicide re-sistant weeds.
Interim Study TacklesCombating Injuries in YouthSports with expansion of Ath-letic Trainers at Events
OKLAHOMA CITY – Inju-ries in youth sports are alwaysunfortunate and sometimes com-pletely preventable.
With the amount of severe in-juries increasing on the playingfields of America’s youth, stateRep. Dan Kirby called for an in-terim study to better examinewhat could be done to keepOklahoma’s kids safer while theylearn how to compete and be-come more physically fit.
The study, IS14-043, ad-dressed the possibility of increas-ing the use of athletic trainers atsporting events to prevent cer-tain injuries from occurring andalso to provide for instant on-sitemedical aid should the need arise.
“Some of the stories I heardtoday were jarring and sadden-ing to me as a parent,” said Kirby,R-Tulsa. “While it is extremelyimportant we stress to our chil-dren the importance of physicalfitness and participation in youthactivities, we must also be vigi-lant and protect our children fromunnecessary risks. Hearing thestories that were shared tell mewe must do something to makeevery child’s experience with ath-letics as positive as possible.”
The study featured testimonyfrom several medical experts, in-cluding: Dr. Brenden McCollom,a family physician from Yukon;Dr. Ron Walker, the clinical as-sistant professor of athletic train-ing at the University of Tulsa; CJFedor, the sports medicine pro-gram manager at McBride Or-thopedic Hospital in OklahomaCity; and Darren Lunow, the di-rector of sports medicine at Cen-tral States Orthopedics in Tulsa.
The study also featured com-ments from Judy Pulice of theNational Athletic Trainers’ As-sociation; John Hoover of Tulsa,a parent of an athlete that hadbeen injured and benefited froma trainer on site; and formerUniversity of Oklahoma quar-terback Patrick Fletcher, whoplayed for the Sooners from1998-2000.
“I can’t say enough howgrateful and appreciative I amto all who showed up today andcontributed their comments tothis important matter,” Kirbysaid. “After hearing what I didtoday, I firmly believe we cancreate a program to ensure ath-letic trainers are at as manyevents as possible to ensure thesafety of our kids. Doing thiswill prevent issues such as de-tecting early signs of concussionand dehydration, as well as in-corporate proper stretchingtechniques that prevent pulledmuscles and sprains.
“Several of our larger schooldistricts, such as Tulsa Union andNorman, already have athletictrainers on site. After today Ibelieve it will be important toreally look at ways to increasethe number of schools that havetrainers on site and ready to helpout.”
Kirby said this issue is likelyto be a topic in the next legisla-tive session.
“The 2015 legislative sessionwill be here before we know it,”Kirby said. “Our goal is gettrainers on the field and educatecoaches on what to do in casean injury occurs.
“After today, one of my chiefgoals for the upcoming sessionis to draft legislation that will gettrainers on our fields and courtsacross the state so if the needarises, we have someone on-sitewho can immediately assist anychild that is injured.”
The next legislative sessionbegins in February.
AG'S OFFICE SERVINGVICTIMS OF DOMESTIC
VIOLENCEBy: Oklahoma Attorney
General Scott PruittDomestic violence has been
propelled to the forefront of na-tional media attention due to sev-eral high profile cases in one ofAmerica’s favorite sports.
The issue is especially poi-gnant now, as October is Do-mestic Violence AwarenessMonth.
For too many Oklahomans,unfortunately, domestic violencewon’t end when the awarenessmonth does. Oklahoma ranksthird on the list for states withthe most domestic violence ho-micides. That statistic representseach victim of domestic vio-lence: someone’s child, sister,mother or father. Many victimsare afraid or ashamed to gethelp. That’s why it is impera-tive, in this critical position forour state and this time of na-tional focus, that we must cometogether to be leaders in com-batting domestic violence.
Starting later this month, theAttorney General’s Office Vic-tim Services Unit will begintraining law enforcement toimplement and use a new toolto determine the potential lethal-ity of a domestic violence inci-dent. This assessment, devel-oped using research by Dr. JanetSullivan of the OU Health Sci-ences Center and Sheryll Brownof the Oklahoma State HealthDepartment, is a tool that lawenforcement can use whenmaking first contact with a vic-tim of domestic violence.
Based on responses to thespecific questions, law enforce-ment officers will then call a vic-tims’ service advocate on behalfof the victim. These advocatesare equipped with the resourcesto help victims in a crucial timeof need to escape a dangeroussituation. Recently, we com-pleted a pilot program with theOklahoma City and Tulsa po-lice departments, and both cit-ies saw encouraging results.
I have hope that this initia-tive will drive Oklahoma to be aleader in handling domestic vio-lence, both in service to the vic-tim and prosecution of the of-fender.
Research shows that victimsof domestic violence who re-ceive support from domesticviolence and sexual assault pro-grams certified by the AttorneyGeneral’s Office are significantlyless likely to be a fatality victim,highlighting the importance weneed to place on providing vic-tims of domestic violence withthe resources to get help andlaw enforcement with the toolsto provide that help.
The bible says things meant
for evil – through the grace ofGod – can be used for good.While Oklahoma may strugglewith domestic violence fatalities,innovation from our state hasproduced a first-of-its-kind re-source that will help will help turnthis statistic around.
Our office is fortunate to workwith so many partners whoshare our vision for Oklahoma’sfuture as a leader in the fightagain domestic violence, namelythe District Attorneys Council,Oklahoma Coalition AgainstDomestic Violence, the NativeAlliance Against Domestic Vio-lence, the Department of HumanServices and 29 domestic vio-lence and sexual assault pro-grams certified by the AttorneyGeneral’s Office.
Together, we can help to endthe tragedy of lives destroyed bydomestic violence in Oklahoma.
To report incidents of domes-tic violence, call the statewide 24-hour hotline at 1-800-522-SAFE(7233). For resources to assistvictims of domestic abuse, con-tact the Attorney General’s Vic-tim Services Unit at (405) 521-3921 or (918) 581-2885.
Aggies Keep It RollingBy Trever CzubinskiGeorgetown, Texas—On
October 11, 2014, the Okla-homa Panhandle State Univer-sity football team traveled toGeorgetown, Texas and domi-nated the Pirates of Southwest-ern University, 59-7. The Aggieshave won four games in a rowand have advanced to a 4-2record. By outscoring their op-ponents 279 to 123 on the year,the Aggies' offense has proventheir ability to move the ball.Defensively, the Aggies havecaused 14 turnovers in six gamesand played a big role in the vic-tory against Southwestern Uni-versity.
The Aggies jumped out to anearly start after a 9-yard touch-down pass from Caleb Holbrookto Deandre Perry. The Piratesfailed to answer by missing a 43-yard field goal and allowed theAggies to add to their lead witha 5-yard touchdown rush by run-ning back Chris McClendon.The ensuing drive was short forthe Pirates as they coughed theball up to the Aggie defense.Wide receiver Zacari Lavendermade the Pirates pay for theirmistake with a 12-yard touch-down rush to make the score 21-0 at the end of the first quarter.
The Aggies continued to showtheir dominance by running theball in the second quarter with a30-yard rush for a touchdownfrom running back Rod Moore.Defensive back DominiqueJohnson showed his instincts tofind the end zone with his 36-yard interception return to makethe score 35-0. Later in the quar-ter, both teams traded turnovers;the Aggies would give up afumble to the Pirates, but wouldanswer right back with an inter-ception by Gabriel Robinson toregain possession of the ball. Justbefore the half, the Aggies wouldcapitalize on the turnover with a24-yard pass from Holbrook toDevonte Jackson to make thelead 42-0.
The Pirates would succeed inmoving the ball in the secondhalf, but were unable to reachthe end zone or the uprights asTraray Givens blocked the at-tempted field goal. OPSU kickerGabriel Ortega was put to thetest and managed to convert ona 32-yard field goal after miss-ing his first of the game.
Robinson would create an-other spark early in the fourthquarter by picking off the Piratesfor the second time. The Aggiesfailed to convert on a 38-yardfield goal attempt, and the Pi-rates would capitalize by scor-ing their first touchdown of thegame with a 36-yard rush fromD. Wilburn to make the score45-7. Another Pirate fumblewould allow the Aggies to start ashort drive at the seven yard line.Beau Avila would connect withPerry on the very next play fora 7-yard touchdown pass. Nearthe end of the game, Lavenderwould show some greatathleticism by blocking a Piratepunt, recovering the ball, andreturning it for a 20-yard specialteams' touchdown to make thefinal score 59-7.
The Aggies have been of firefor the last four straight weeksand have been making solidplays in every aspect of thegame. Head Coach RussellGaskamp has specifically brokendown his thoughts about theteam's performance; offensively,defensively, and special teams."Really proud of how well ourdefense played; five turnovers,six sacks and 18 tackles-for-loss
shows the strides we are con-tinuing to make. They are start-ing to believe that we can be adominant defensive unit. Offen-sively, it was a 'tale of twohalves.' We were very good inthe 1st half and then playedpoorly in the 2nd. We have tobe more consistent in our execu-tion. Top offenses don’t havebad halves. We will have to playmuch better verses a goodBacone defensive unit. I wasproud of our special team units.It was the most physical andcomplete game we have playedin that area; that bodes well forus the rest of the year."
The Aggies piled up 399 totalyards by throwing for 219 andrunning for 180. Defensively, theAggies showed their domination
by sacking the quarterback sixtimes, snagging three intercep-tions, and causing 2 fumbles fora combined 5 turnovers. Line-backer Tanner Hallford and de-fensive back Dominique Guesthad monster games as they ledthe team in tackles with nine apiece. Guest also had three ofthe six team sacks.
The Aggies will host theBacone College Warriors Satur-day, October 18 at Carl WootenField. The game will start at 2p.m. and everyone is welcometo support their team; admissionwill be free this week so CoachGas is expecting to see the AggieNation in full force. WEARRED! GET ROWDY! REV ITUP!

Oklahoma wheat producersshould check for fall army-worms now By Donald Stotts STILLWATER, Okla. –
Oklahoma State University’s Di-vision of Agricultural Sciencesand Natural Resources is recom-mending state wheat producersexamine their pastures for thepresence of fall armyworms. ”I checked a field of wheat
this past weekend that exhibitedsignificant damage from fall ar-myworms and found an averageof six to seven fall armywormsper square foot,” said TomRoyer, OSU Cooperative Exten-sion Integrated Pest Managementcoordinator. Producers should scout for
fall armyworms by examiningplants in five or more locationsin the field. The presence of“window paned” leaves – wherethe green tissue has been scrapedoff, leaving a clear membrane –or chewed leaves is a tipoff a fallarmyworm problem may exist. Fall armyworms are most
active in the morning or late af-ternoon. Take care to count allsizes of larvae. Examine plantsalong the field margin as well asin the interior because fall army-worms sometimes move in fromroad ditches and weedy areas. ”The caterpillars were widely
distributed in the field I checked,suggesting they were the resultof a large egg-lay from a recentadult moth flight,” Royer said.“The suggested treatment thresh-old is two to three larvae per lin-ear foot of row in wheat withactive feeding.” For control suggestions, con-
sult the newly updated OSU Ex-tension Fact Sheet CR-7194,“Management of Insect and MitePests of Small Grains,” availableonline at http://osufacts.okstate.edu and throughall OSU Cooperative Extensioncounty offices, usually listed intelephone directories under“County Government.” Oklahoma will not get relief
from fall armyworms until thefirst killing frost of the year, sincethey do not overwinter in thestate. OPAIA and PREDCI
Speak at Western Governor’sDrought Forum
September 18-19, 2014,Norman, Oklahoma. Russell
Isaacs, President of the Okla-homa Panhandle Agriculture andIrrigation Association (OPAIA)along with Vicki Ayres –Portman, Executive Director ofthe Panhandle Regional Eco-nomic Development Coalition(PREDCI), and Duane Smith,President of Smith & Associ-ates, presented a case study atthe Western Governor’sDrought Forum.
“As farmers, we understandthe necessity to conserve ourwater. It’s our most valuableresource.” Isaacs said.
“Our mission is to have thebest economic impact by usingwater as efficiently as we can.”Ayres-Portman added.
The case study focused onthe Panhandle Regional WaterPlan commissioned by OPAIAand PREDCI. The purpose ofthe plan, which was completedin 2012, was to prepare a com-prehensive evaluation of wateruse and water supplies in theOklahoma Panhandle, alongwith water management strate-gies that will extend the life ofthe Ogallala Aquifer and providecontinued economic growth anddevelopment.
“Based upon audience feed-back, participants were enthu-siastic that voluntary conserva-tion was feasible and effective.They also seemed encouragedto focus upon local control . . .regions or districts developingtheir own plans.” Isaacs said.
The two day drought forumat the National Weather Centerin Norman was the first of fourto be hosted this year. TheWestern Governor’s Droughtforum is being conducted inpartnership with NOAA’s Na-tional Integrated Drought Infor-mation System.
OPAIA board members areJason Becker, Russell Isaacs,Darren Buck, Fred Fischer, NeilHyer, Pat Long, Leon Richards,Scott Arthaud and WesWoolman. Find OPAIA onFacebook at Oklahoma Pan-handle Agriculture & IrrigationAssociation or follow on Twit-ter at WaterOPAIA.

FALL CARE FOR PEREN-NIALS
A perennial plant livesthrough two or more years,growing again from the roots,bulb or rhizome in spring, aftergoing dormant in the fall. Someperennials are better at surviv-ing winter cold than others, sothe gardener has to give themore sensitive plants specialcare in the fall. These choresinclude cutting them back andmulching them to prepare themfor the harsh weather ahead.
Keep LabelsNot all perennials need the
same care. Keep the labels ofthe plants you buy and plant.Make a map of your garden soyou can identify individual pe-rennials. If you know what pe-rennial is growing where, youcan tailor your fall chores to thespecific needs of each plant.
Cutting backThe roots of perennials grow
until the ground temperaturelowers to about 40 degreesFahrenheit. This is the time tocut back your perennials. Ifyour area gets a little snow butnot a lot of rain, you shouldleave a couple of inches ofstems to help trap the snow. Youmight not want to cut back ifyour perennials are ornamen-tals or provide seeds for birds.Remember that ornamentalgrasses sometimes providecover for rodents. If you wantto drive the rodents away, cutback ornamental grass.
MulchingPerennials need to adjust to
some cold, so don’t mulch un-til mid-November. Straw, woodchips and shredded leaves workwell. Whole leaves and grassclippings can compact aroundthe plant, preventing water fromdraining, an invitation to disease.Many hardy perennials can sur-vive the winter with two- orthree-inch mulch, which willprovide protection at 5 to 10degrees Fahrenheit and preventwide fluctuations in tempera-ture. Alternate freezing andthawing can result in “frostheaving” that damages dormantroots. Mulch borderline hardyperennials with a six- to eight-inch layer of mulch. If your area
has extremely harsh winters, youcan use up to a foot or more ofmulch to protect your plants. Re-member, mulches make goodhomes for rodents. Hay has weedseeds, so it does not make goodmulch. Remove mulches as earlyas possible in the spring. Makesure the graft union of roses is acouple of inches below ground orcovered with soil. Cut back to thetop of the mulch.
FertilizerYou can add compost in the
fall. If you cut back your peren-nials, it will be easier for you toapply it. Test your soil. Lime isslow acting. If your soil needslime and you apply it in the fall, itwill have time to change the soilpH by the spring when the plantsbegin to grow.
Caging Tall PerennialsThe fall is a good time to cage
tall perennials with wide-meshwire fencing or concrete reinforc-ing wire. If wind blows in yourarea, put a stake in the cage tohelp hold the plants in place.When the plants begin growingthe following spring, the branchesand leaves will grow through thespaces, hiding the wire.
BulbsDig up tender summer bulbs
and store them in a place that iscool but does not freeze. Theseinclude caladiums, cannas, dahl-ias, gladiolus and tuberoses. Plantspring bulbs before November sothey can get established. Theseinclude daffodil, crocus and tu-lips. If you plant them too early,they will start growing aboveground.
Install WindbreaksIf your area has heavy snow
and high winds, the fall is a goodtime to install windbreaks. Theaccumulation of snow will helpmoderate soil temperature andprotect your perennials from dry-ing winter wind.

Weekly Column: Farm toSchool Programs Create NewOpportunities for Farmers
This October, just like everyother month during the schoolyear, school menus will featurean array of products from localand regional farmers, ranchers,and fishermen. Kids of all ageswill dig up lessons in school gar-dens, visit farms, harvest pump-kins, and don hair nets for toursof processing facilities. Scienceteachers – and English, math, andsocial studies instructors, too – willuse food and agriculture as a toolin their classrooms, so that les-sons about the importance ofhealthy eating permeate the schoollearning environment. An investment in the health
of America’s students through
Farm to School is also an invest-ment in the farmers and ranch-ers who grow the food and aninvestment in the health of localeconomies. In school year 2011-2012, schools purchased $386million in local food from farm-ers, ranchers, fishermen, andfood processors and manufac-turers. And an impressive 56percent of school districts reportthat they will buy even more lo-cal foods in future school years.Farm to school programs existin every state in the country. For example, the Lake
County Community Develop-ment Corporation in Bozeman,Montana reports a 40 percentincrease in revenues to farmersbased on school sales alone. TheSouthwest Georgia Project, acommunity development non-profit, notes that “We’re actu-ally seeing our farmers havehope. The farm to school pro-gram allows them to see an op-portunity for a sustainable livingfor themselves and their fami-lies.” Testimonials in a USDAvideo released this week high-light the degree to which farmto school programs supporthealthy eating behaviors amongchildren and provide positiveeconomic impacts to local com-munities. Strengthening local food sys-
tems is one of the four pillars ofUSDA’s commitment to ruraleconomic development, andFarm to School programs canplay an important role. To sup-port the expansion of Farm toSchool programs into moreschools and expand opportunityfor farmers and ranchers, USDAoffers grants, training, and tech-nical assistance. Since the startof our Farm to School GrantProgram in fiscal year 2013, forexample, USDA has awardedgrants to 139 projects spanning46 states and the District of Co-lumbia, serving more than16,200 schools and 4.55 millionstudents, nearly 43% of whomlive in rural communities.
At USDA we’re transform-ing school food and creating ahealthier next generation. We’rehappy to celebrate in October,but we’re going to be cheeringfor schools with farm to schoolprograms all year long. Whenstudents have experiences suchas tending a school garden or vis-iting a farm, they’re more likelyto make healthy choices in thecafeteria. I see the change everytime I visit a cafeteria; studentslight up when meeting theirfarmer. They are piling theirtrays full of healthy foods, theyare learning healthy habits thatthey will carry with them for life,and they are learning an appre-ciation for the American farmerthat they will carry with themtheir entire lives.

A Meaningful Funeral
(NAPSI)—The number ofcremations has grownacross the country over thepast 20 years. In fact, theCremation Association ofNorth America estimatessome 1.5 million Americans
are cremated every year.While this can be a way
to deal with the end of lifethat’s both comforting andaffordable for the mourners,many families believe at-tending a funeral service isone of the most importantways for them to begin thegrieving and healing pro-cess. Traditional servicesgive families and friends theopportunity to come to-gether to celebrate and re-member the life that hasbeen lived.
People leaning towardcremation may be relievedto know that doesn’t meanthey have to miss an impor-tant opportunity to providetheir family and friends theclosure that often comeswith a funeral service.
Funeral homes through-out the country offer afford-able caskets that can beused for both viewing andcremation. These casketsare made entirely from en-gineered wood, a materialthat is formed from recycledmaterial to produce an af-fordable, attractive and en-vironmentally friendly cre-mation casket. Unlike arented casket, the crema-tion casket also serves asthe cremation container.
A traditional funeral ser-vice will provide comfortand closure for friends andloved ones.

Ms. Alysa Wilson-Olvera, the daughter of Donna Cain, of Boise City, was given a medal from the U.S. Army, for her work as a civilian at Weed Army Hospital, Fort Irwin, Calif. The citation reads that Wilson Olvera, from March of 2012 to April 2014 was praised for her work ethic, attention to detail among other things, and that she was a credit to her-self, the hospital, Western Region Medical Command and the U.S. Army. The citation is signed by Col. Jason Weinam.
It is hard to believe, but the first nine weeks of school have already passed. The 1st - 6th graders who made their First nine weeks A.R. goal were able to take a trip to the Clayton Fire Department where they were shown the firetrucks and the ambulances. While at the fire department the students were shown how quickly a fire fighter can get in to their gear, a minute and 30 seconds by the way. And then it was on to the Herzstein Museum for some hot cocoa and a hands on tour.
