Q: Im having some stomach bloating and heartburn

whenever I eat. What can I do to get relief?

A: You could try eating smaller portions of food at one

time, along with incorporating more fresh raw food in

your diet if you are not already doing so. You could

also assist your stomach with the processing of your

food by trying Megazymes by Enzymatic Therapy.

His past catches up in revenge of the hunted

Not so terribly long ago in my previous life as a Jack of All Trades for the city of my birth, one of the duties that landed in my lap on occasion was animal control. It was pure chance the first time it happened. I was driv-ing across town toward a construction site for a zoning inspection when a Holstein heifer stepped into Walnut Street just ahead of me. She didnt appear to be in any par-ticular hurry and actually seemed more interested in what was behind her rather than what was ahead. At first I figured she was checking over her shoulder to see if the farmer was tailing her into town, but when the entire roadway filled with the bovine equivalent of preteen girls I learned otherwise. She was appar-ently the ringleader in some sort of cow-camp slumber party that had gotten terribly out of hand! When I reached for my two-way radio she shot off through the neighborhood with a herd of seven hot on her hooves! The round-up, which

ultimately included myself, a half-dozen police officers and a handful of street depart-ment workers, along with the farmer and his wife, took the better part of the morning and finally ended when the princess-in-charge made her way through the unlocked man-door of a garage and kicked the snot out of some poor guys vin-tage Ford Pinto. While no animals (other than the Pinto) were harmed in the making of the adven-ture, it was clear to me that animal control pos-sessed all of the excite-ment and high-stakes thrills I had been looking for in a career. From that point on I made it my business to step up any-time a critter call hit the city switchboard. It was a life of daring

and adventure that car-ried myriad risks with lit-tle material reward other than the potential for

some pretty rich stories. I was sort of a low-budget bounty hunter. Even though I eventu-

ally left that world and moved on to other more respectable but infinitely less adventurous career duties a bit of the bounty hunter remains. I made enemies back then bad, bad enemies and every once in a while an ill wind blows across the plain and my past comes

crawling back to haunt me. I have a long and sto-ried history with ground-hogs (many chapters of which involve a .22-cali-ber rifle) that began well before my tenure with the city. I guess it should come as no surprise that sooner or later it would catch up to me. Why did the groundhog cross the road? Well I believe this one was trying to kill me! I was on my bicycle,

blowing myself to pieces fighting a relentless head-wind and trying to make it to a late afternoon meeting at Wayne Col-lege after pedaling out of Millersburg a half-hour later than I had planned. After rounding the last corner of the 27-mile trip I had nearly made it to the school. Thats when I spotted him, an enor-mous, hulking, tree-stump of a groundhog rising above the soybeans in a field near the road. The scene played out like a Bond movie: I saw him. He saw me. We were eas-ily 50 feet apart. Thats when he started running and Im not talking

your typical groundhog-style chubby, galumphing waddle. This thing was a whistle-pig cruise missile aimed directly for me! Within seconds he was at the road, then in the road,

then INTO THE SPACE BETWEEN MY FRONT AND REAR WHEELS! I ran squarely over

top of him with a shock-

U.S.-Japan deal could lead to more organic options

WASHINGTON The United States and Japan have agreed to make it easier to import each others organic products, the latest step in a global effort that could give con-sumers access to more and cheaper organic food.The Agriculture

Department planned to announce an agreement Thursday between the United States and Japan that will allow organic products to be certified in one of the countries and be sold as organic in both. The agreement will allow producers to sell their products in both countries without going through the lengthy process of getting certified twice.The agreement is simi-

lar to a 2009 deal with Canada and a 2012 deal

with the European Union. Agriculture officials say they are looking at agree-ments with other coun-tries South Korea, and possibly India, Brazil and Mexico down the road that could also make it easier for U.S. organic farmers to sell abroad.The result could be a

flow of new products to the U.S. market and high-er profits for U.S. organic producers. According to USDA, the most popu-lar organic imports from Japan are green tea, organic sakes and organic mushrooms. The depart-ment said the Canadian agreement has increased exported organic grains to the United States, and the European pact has increased sales of their organic wines and olive oils in the U.S.The United States

exports many more organ-ics to Japan than it imports from the country, and offi-

cials say the agreement will be a boost for the burgeoning U.S. industry, one of the fastest-grow-ing sectors of agriculture. Organics have seen sales rise around 4 percent to 5 percent a year and now account for more than $30 billion in annual sales.Japan imports a wide

variety of organics from the United States, includ-ing soybeans, specialty crops like cauliflower and nuts, and processed prod-ucts like frozen meals. Under the agreement, U.S. organic products sold there will now carry the USDA organic seal.Annual organic sales to

Japan from the United States now total around $80 million, and the USDA estimates the new agreement could more than triple that amount to $250 million a year over the next 10 years.

The United States and Japan have agreed to make it eas-ier to import each others organic products, the latest step in a global effort that could give consumers more, and cheaper, access to organic food. The Agriculture Department announced Sept. 26 that organic products certified in Japan or in the United States may be sold as organic in either country.

Rep. Hall named Guardian of Public HealthState Rep. Dave Hall

(R-Millersburg) was recently named the 2013 Guardian of Public Health by the Associa-tion of Ohio Health Com-missioners for his advo-cacy efforts on behalf of local public health during the budget process. The annual award is given to one person either a public servant or private

citizen as a means of recognizing outstanding, significant and innovative activities and programs resulting in a positive impact on public health. Im honored and truly

humbled to receive this award, said Hall. I began working with our local public health dis-tricts when I was a local official in Holmes Coun-ty, and Ive continued to develop those relation-ships as a state represen-tative. I have enormous respect and appreciation for Ohios health districts and the individuals who provide healthcare ser-vices to our communities. But the job isnt done. We still have important work to do for public health in Ohio.Dr. D. J. McFadden, MD,

MPH, who is the health commissioner for Holmes County General Health District, presented the award to Hall at the Asso-ciation of Ohio Health Commissioners fall con-ference in Dublin, Ohio.It is a real honor to

have Representative Hall receive this award, McFadden said. He has been working with public health for a number of years. He has advocated for physical fitness dur-ing his role as director of the Holmes County Park District. He has worked to promote early childhood education as the chair of the Holmes County Fam-ily and Child First Coun-cil and in the legislature. And during the last year he helped to ensure that the role of public health

in local communities is understood by his part-ners at the Statehouse.The Guardian of Public

Health award is the most significant title bestowed by the association. Past recipients have included Jane Dockery of Wright State University and Rosemary Chaudry, PhD, MPH, RN. Also of note, Senator Tom Niehaus won the award in 2004 and again in 2006.

Agriculture Secretary Tom Vil-sack said the agreement will create good jobs for Americans across the organic supply chain.For consumers, the agreement

with Japan also should lead to lower prices and more variety, said Laura Batcha of the Organic Trade Asso-ciation. Companies that have had to pay for certification twice will no longer have to pass those costs on to consumers. Batcha said the industry is hopeful that the United States will work toward other such deals as foreign countries gradually adopt stricter standards for organ-ics.Steve Crider, international Sales

Manager for Amys Kitchen, a California-based organic com-pany that sells frozen entrees and canned soups, said his companys sales have increased dramatically since the European Union market was opened up last year.

Crider said his company had not been selling very many products to Japan because it would have had to certify that every single one of the many ingredients in its products are up to Japans standards.Japan loves American products,

he said. But it was a backwater for us because of those constraints.In agreeing to the deal, Japan

dropped its objections to two sub-stances allowed in U.S. organic foods that are not allowed in Japa-nese organic foods. While most of the two countries organic stan-dards are the same, Japan has not allowed its organics to be produced with ligonum sulfonate, a substance used in post-harvest fruit produc-tion, or alkali-extracted humic acid, a fertilizer used to help grow a vari-ety of organic crops. The United States allows those substances.Vilsack said agreements like this

one are aimed at helping revital-ize rural areas in the United States that have seen a decline in young

people. While commercial-size farming can be intimidating to young and beginning farmers, Vil-sack said, many have shown inter-est in organics, which require less acreage, less equipment and less capital to get started.
