MILTON - Silky-smooth, har-monious epiphanies saturatedmore than 1,000 peopleMarch 2.

The undeniable unity of ErnieHaase and Signature Sound pro-duced a heavenly sound of hope.The tenor, baritone, lead andbass sounds of Ernie Haase,Devin McGlamery, Doug Ander-son and Paul Harkey flowed likethe ocean: drawing people inwith the message they sung out.

“We’re a team that uses har-mony to put out a great mes-sage,” said Anderson. “Ourmusic is about hope, forgivenessand love.”

For the baritone, performingwill always be about much more

than a pay check. He looked to-ward McGlamery, Harkey and

Haase.“Wewould do this all day…We

love it so much,” he said.McGlamery, lead for the band,

started singing at 5-years-old. Hesang in church and in highschool. WhenMcGlamery heardHaase’ sound, he was hooked.

“When these guys started, Iknew that was where I wanted tobe,” he said. “I’m living out adream.”

To Harkey, the music he cre-ates is more than a sound: it’slife-changing power. The bassman looked toward the Miltonauditorium.

“I like to watch people’s faces,”said Harkey. “To see them come

Dear Readers,Once again I would like to

thank you for the overwhelmingresponse from last week’s discus-sion. Drug abuse and addictionare not only serious, but also all-too-common within our com-munity. Your advice and supportare greatly appreciated. Myfriend has a tough road ahead ofher, regardless of her decision tostay or go, and you all have beena tremendous help.

With that being said, I haveone more favor to ask before wereturn to our regularly scheduledcolumn. You may have noticedaround town - at places like yourlocal grocery store, gas station, orfavorite restaurant - the greenshamrocks hanging on the walls.These shamrocks can be pur-chased for $1, and the proceedsgo to the Muscular DystrophyAssociation to help fund researchand support for those sufferingfrom Muscular Dystrophy andother muscle-related diseases.

I, along with others that workin these establishments, havebeen working diligently to helpraise money for this important

cause. More than 50,000 people,in the US alone, are affected bythis disease which progressivelyweakens the muscles that con-trolmovement. There are severaldifferent forms of this disease, af-fecting people of all ages. Theseverity of the disease can varydepending on which type of MDyou have. In some cases thesymptoms aremild and progressvery slowly, while others aremore severe and can causeheart-related problems and evendeath.

You see, this charity hits veryclose to home with me. One ofmy dearest friends, some mighteven call him my best friend, issuffering from this disease. Hewas diagnosed with Becker, oneof nine different types of MD, atthe age of 21. Now, at the age of55, hemust rely solely on the useof a wheelchair due to his dis-ease’s progression. He says thathe realizes that it may be too latefor him, but hopefully not toolate for future generations if acure is found.

This Saturday, March 16th, isthe annual Huntington Muscle

Walk, held by the Muscular Dys-trophy Association, at the BigSandy Superstore Arena from9:30-11:30a.m. Along with theshamrocks, all proceeds fromthis event will be used for the re-search and treatment of MD. Iwill be there, along with myfriend and many others, to helpraise funds and awareness, andto pay tribute to those who havelost their lives battling this dis-ease.

So, if you’re out this weekendand looking for something to doon Saturday morning, head onover to the Big Sandy SuperstoreArena inHuntington and help usmake a difference in the lives ofothers. If you can’t make it onthat day, but would still like tohelp, stop by one of your partici-pating, local stores and purchasea shamrock. Itmay sound cliché,but you never know if your dona-tion could be the one that helpsto save a life. Thank you.

Christin’s CornerBy Christin Daugherty

InMarch 2012, the Federal En-ergy Regulatory Commission(FERC) and Constellation EnergyCommodities Group entered intoa Stipulation andConsent Agree-ment (Consent Agreement)which resolved a FERC investiga-tion of Constellation manipulat-ing the New York wholesalepower market from September2007 to December 2008. As partof the settlement, Constellationagreed to pay a civil penalty of$245million, which included cre-ating a fund to benefit electriccustomers in the affected re-gions, including West Virginia.Today, the Public Service Com-mission of West Virginia an-nounced it has earmarked itsshare of this one-time paymentof nearly $250,000 to provide as-sistance to low income electric

customers inWest Virginia.The Public Service Commis-

sion proposed, and the FERC ap-proved, a plan to designate theCommission’s portion of themoney to the Dollar EnergyFund, Inc., which will distributethe funds through its West Vir-ginia Utility Assistance Program.

Each year thousands of WestVirginians benefit from the Util-ity Assistance Program. Duringthe 2011-2012 program year,36,349 electric customers inWestVirginia received more than $7million in bill payment assis-tance, an average of $112.06 percustomer. The recently ear-marked funds will continue tobenefit low-incomeWestVirgini-ans struggling to keep their elec-tricity on.

PSC Earmarks $250,000to assist Low IncomeElectricity Customers

The following information isprovided by the National FireProtection Association (NFPA).

On average from 2005-2009,over 56,000 fires were reported byUnited States municipal fire de-partments from children playingwith fire. Fires set by children is agrowing problem that needs theattention of teachers, parents,counselors, and community lead-ers.

An estimated 110 civiliandeaths, 880 civilian injuries, and$286 million in property damagewere caused from fires started bychildren playing.

Structure fires accounted for22% of fires, but 98% of civiliandeaths, and 93% of propertydamage.

Outside fires accounted for75% of the fires and 2% for vehi-cle fires.

An alarming 66% occurred inor around residential properties.WhyDo Children Set Fires?There are two types of fire-set-

ters:- Curiosity Fire-setters- Problem Fire-settersIn order to understand why

children set fires, it is importantto know the difference in the twotypes of fire-setters.Curiosity Fire-setters:Range from ages two to seven

years old.Have a fascination with fire

that will cause them to play withfire to see how it burns, what itfeels like, and what it does.

Curiosity is normal during achild’s growth and development.

However, adults should take achild’s playing with fire very seri-ously. It is a matter of life anddeath.Problem Fire-setters:Usually range from ages five to

seventeen years old.Exhibit a severe fire-setting

problem beyond curiosity.Light fires due tomild to severe

emotional or mental distress.Examples that could trigger the

behavior are: moving to a newarea, suffering various types ofabuse, divorce, or death in thefamily.

Problem fire-setters can exhibitadditional negative behaviorssuch as cruelty to animals, poorrelationships with other children,stealing, bullying or extrememood changes.What CanYOUDo?Teach your child about the

dangers of fire, and that fire is atool for grown-ups only. As a fam-ily, get to know your local fire de-partment and teach your childabout the dangers to themen andwomen who have to respond tofires.

Control your child’s access tofire by keeping lighters ormatches put up.

Set a good example by keepinga fire-safe home and modelingsafe behaviors.

Teach your child that everyoneneeds to take responsibility forfire safety!Websites to visit for more in-

in one way and leave another isamazing.”

Signature Sound is part ofHaase’ vision that began decadesago as a child. The famous tenorremembered the beginning.

“I was really young and I re-membermy dad said, ‘you can bein front of many people andmake many happy,’” Haase re-called. “He spoke something intome.”

The singer continued, “Whenyou find your voice - it’s notsomething you do or say - it’s howit reaches people.”

Since 2003, the band has woncountless awards, includingrecognition from Dove and Bill-board. The ten-year-journey

humbles Haase.“My life has evolved and every-

thing around this calling hasevolved…I realize I need Godmore in every aspect of it,” hesaid. “I keep running to the Lord,because there is not a pill bigenough or a glass deep enough togive you peace.”

McGlamery agreed. He knowsthe band has a bigger job thanmerely performing.

“This is our purpose - the com-mon languagewe all speak - love,harmony and laughter,”McGlamery explained. “On stageit’s not about dollars, and youcan’t operate in a commercialmindset…We think impact.”

Moments after the interview,the band prayed and prepared tohit the stage. Before they did, thefour men were awed during aperformance by a 14-year-old pi-anist.

Timothy Noble opened for theband. The teen-prodigy’s fingerswere like lightning on the key-

board. His hands crisscrossedone another while striking audi-ence-silencing notes.

After his opening performance,ErnieHaase and Signature Soundhit the stage.

The standing-room-onlycrowd made their presenceknown. Cheers and claps echoedthroughout the Pumpkin Park.

The band’s sound trulywas sig-nature. It was smooth, synchro-nized and sweet to the ears.

Hundreds left the show en-couraged and joyous.

This was one of many concertsslated for the Pumpkin Park. Thenext is Gold City, scheduled 7p.m. April 20. For more informa-tion on upcoming events, visitwww.wvpumpkinpark.com.

Hello Readers! Spring is in theair and Easter is right around thecorner. What a wonderful timefor all of you writers out there tosend in one of those poems youhave tucked away in a drawer ora notebook. This column isabout you, our local writers; canyou think of a better way to high-light our local talent? Don’t beshy or bashful; this is an excel-lent opportunity to see your po-etry in print. Your poem doesnot have to be perfect, as a mat-ter of fact most poems are not, Iknowmine aren’t. Whatmakes agood poem is that the writer feltstrongly enough about the sub-ject to write about it. When youwrite a poem you invest yourselfinto it and that is what makes itspecial. So, how about sendingyour poems into the above ad-dress, or email them tome at [email protected] be watching for them.Until next time, keep readingand writing.

*****Contemplating Poetry

First, I get an idea.Then, put it on paper.Now, do I or do I notmake it rhyme?Or, count it out in meter,thus “keep time”.wait, it’s not a song.Maybe it could be?Okay, howmany versesof howmany lines?

Where to break each?Oh, that is poetry.Definitely. Free verse,not a classic formlike couplets or sonnets.Those are a challengeI should consider, too.

And don’t forget Haiku!Eleanor Michael, IA

*****The Porcelain Bowl

Life is like a porcelain sugarbowl.Giveme a silver spoon to taste

its sweetness.Its glories in verse I will then

extol.Its many praises I will keep re-

peating.Life’s a porcelain bowl is

painted with flowersAnd small delicate birds and

bright green grass,But I will shed tears in great

thundershowersIf the silver spoon of Life can’t

be grasped.O costly, delicate porcelain

bowl,I long to taste the sweetness

that you hold;But I can’t find the silver spoon

and knowThat soon I shall be in my

grave stone cold.So I will reach into Life with

my handAnd grasp whatever sweet-

ness I can.

Jack Clubb,CA

*****Knitting AYear

Like knitting needles withoutyarnthe year begins ready to cast

offnew situations and unresolved

dilemmasas the designs in a developing

sweater.Increasing and decreasing

emotions movelike the hands of a knitter cre-

ating with love.

Mistakes occur as the knitterripsand the knots of everyday

problemseat at us all, causing distress

that remainsas we fold to despair and dis-

like.

Anger at dropped stitchesand quandarieswith dear onesblock creation that could have

been;admitting toweakness and de-

nied faultswill help solve dilemmaswith those we once loved.

Pick up that dropped stitch,place it back in its order.Knitting is relaxing as aloving relationship.Charlotte Ann Zuzak,PA

“MARCHMELODIES”Thought for the week: The wind bloweth where it liseth, and thou

hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, andwhither it goeth; so is every one that is born of the Spirit. JOHN: 3; 8(KJV).

Today the sun is shining, but last night the winds howled, rattlingwindows, whistling around corners of the house, bumping into thewind chimes, causing them to sing loudly; and by the chimes move-ment, triggering the motion lights to go on and off.

Month ofMarch has her way of telling us she has arrived in variousways not only thru her sounds, but sunshine to snowdrops, she is theundecided month.

Changes,much like people, with our different personalities. Colors,nationalities, beliefs, thoughts etc… but we were all created by GOD.And we all have the option to believe that.

JOHN: 3: 6-7 that which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that whichis born of the Spirit is spirit.Marvel not that I said unto thee; yemustbe born again. (KJV)

Just as the wind blows, not knowing what direction it comes from,so are we, life can end any second.

My kind and gentle brother-in-law passed last week, coming fromhis mailbox, he was found lying in his yard in the sunshine, withmailin hand.

So unlike his wife, my sister, who spent the last 8 years of her life ina nursing home.

God knew how the 67 years of life together this devoted couplelived.

As the granddaughter spoke at his funeral: “My Papaw did not diefrom a heart attack, instead, a heart overflowed with the love of hislife, passing before him, just one month and a day to be exact’’.

And we know that all things work together for good to them thatlove God, to them who are called according to his purpose. Romans8:28

I would rather believe in GOD and knowing that any second I willlive on eternally, than to live a life unsure with plans to change.

“When the time comes for you to die, you need not be afraid, be-cause death cannot separate you from Gods love’’ - Charles H, Spur-geon.

“Do you think we choose the times into which we are born? Or dowe fit the times we are born into?” - Abraham Lincoln.Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was; and the spirit shall

return unto God who gave it. Ecclesiastes 12:7So letMarch blow her winds, whistle her songs, and give her threats

of lingering winter snows. God is still in control of all things, you andI, birds that sing, and whatever the weather brings.

Prayer: Our Father in heaven, thank you for giving us LIFE, guideus that wemay live it better forYOU.Amen.

QuotesI like to read quotes by famous people and some not-so-famous

people and thought I would share a few that I like. Some peopleshould just say nothing, so I won’t mention those.

The realmeasure of aman’swealth is what he has invested in eter-nity – Anonymous

Character is what we are in the dark – Dwight L.MoodyWhen home is ruled according to God’s word, angels might be

asked to stay with us and they would not find themselves out of theirelement – Charles Spurgeon

The object of love is to serve,not to win –WoodrowWilsonI can see how it might be possible for a man to look down upon

earth and be an atheist, but I cannot conceive how he could look upinto the heavens and say there is no God – Abraham Lincoln

Were there no God,we would be in this glorious world with grate-ful hearts and no one to thank – Christina Rosetti

You can give without loving,but cannot love without giving – AmyCarmichael

The hardest thing in the world to understand is income tax – Al-bert Einstein

I don’tmake jokes; I justwatch the government and report the facts–Will Rogers

These are just a few of the newer ones I have come across. I willshare more another time.

I gave a challenge to you readers out there and hope you havestarted on your Bible reading this year. If you haven’t started yet, juststart now!

I believe in the straight forwardand self-evident premise that theelected representatives of theAmerican people have a swornduty to protect and promote U.S.manufacturing and Americanjobs. We must foster Americanindustry and empower Americanworkers so that they can competeon a fair and level playing fieldagainst foreign rivals.

As the top Democrat on theHouse Transportation and Infra-structure Committee, I have beena vocal and active champion of“Buy American” requirements,ensuring that sizable Federal in-vestments result in Americanjobs.

I recently introduced the In-vest in American Jobs Act, whichis intended to strengthen existing“Buy American” requirements forinvestments in highway, bridge,public transit, rail, water systems,and aviation infrastructureequipment. In this way, we canhelp to ensure that U.S taxpayerdollars are put to use buildingAmerican infrastructure with

American materials and crafts-manship, and, result in Americanjobs.

By investing in products thatare “Made in America,” we are in-vesting in our American workers– in their education, their train-ing, and their skills and talents –so that they can compete andwin in a global economy.

Certainly, there will be thosewho want to minimize protec-tions for American industry, inthe hope and based on the fanci-ful theory that other nations willfollow suit. It is an old argumentthat dates back to the early yearsof the American republic. Thegreat statesman and Speaker ofthe U.S. House of Representa-tives, Henry Clay, once referred tosuch calls as “the cry of a spoiledchild, in its nurse’s arms, for themoon, or the stars that glitter inthe firmament of heaven.”

WestVirginia workers know alltoo well how the grand promisesof so-called free trade agree-ments rarely come to fruition.The end result is almost always

the same – factories shuttingdown, jobs moving overseas, un-sustainable trade imbalances,and lower wages and benefits.

I believe in free trade, as longas it is fair trade. West Virginianscan compete and win in a globaleconomy if they have a levelplaying field, and I aim to ensurethat we get it.

I am pressing to strengthenAmerica’s hand at the trade nego-tiating table and ensure greatersecurity for American jobs. Ihave joined several of my Housecolleagues in urging the U.S.Trade Representative to press formore transparency and Congres-sional consultation in trade ne-gotiations. I am pressing toensure greater transparency andpublic participation in the so-called Trans-Pacific Partnershipagreement, so that Americanworkers know upfront what thisagreement means for their eco-nomic livelihoods and job secu-rity.

As a member of the Congres-sional Buy American Caucus, Ihave been pushing to protect ex-isting “Buy American” procure-ment policies in our Nation’strade agreements, trying to en-sure that U.S. taxpayer dollars areinvested into our economy tocreate jobs and strengthen ourmanufacturing sector.

As well, I have supported andcosponsored legislation to repealtax breaks for American compa-nies that send jobs overseas, andsought to encourage Americancompanies to bring jobs home.

Certainly, tax breaks and tradedeals that facilitate and encour-age the outsourcing of Americanjobs – whatever the economictheories may espouse – hurtworking, middle-class families.

When we buy American, webuild America. That will be myguiding principle as our Nationseeks to close our budgetarydeficits and fully recover from therecent recession that has causedsuch harm to working families.

HURRICANE -The problems oflast year’s season will soon bewashed away by new power-houses atWaves of Fun.

Parks and Recreation crews re-ceived the first wave of parts lastweek. The four old pumps aregone and the two new, clutch-dri-venmodels will soon be installed.

Scott Williamson, director ofPutnamCounty Parks and Recre-ation is ready.

“I’m confident we’ll recover alllosses from last year and makesome gains,” he said. “We’re hop-ing formore performance and ex-pecting better waves.”

The machines from AquaticDesignGroup Inc. are technolog-ically advanced, according toWilliamson. The two pumpshave the ability to expand andoffer Hurricane something noother pool in the area has: 16types of waves.

“There’s a lot of potential forgrowth,” he said.

Williamson looked out his win-dow, toward the slides of thewavepool. Memories flooded hismind.

“It was a bad summer and wetook a beating,” he said. “But thatnegative is definitely turning intoa positive - we’ve overcome a lotof obstacles, but we got our foot-print now, and we just got tobuild onto it and redeem whathappened.”

Williamson continued, “Theiron is hot - now is the time andI’m ready to make this happen.”

The wave pool overhaul willcost about $173,000, funded by aloan through Putnam CountyBank. Revenue from the wavepool will pay off the loan.

Williamson thanked countycommissioners and the commu-nity for their continued support.He hopes to re-pay them all witha one-of-a-kind park.

Freshwaves aren’t the only newthing coming to the pool. Crews

will also re-vamp parts of theaging putt-putt golf course.

Williamson is excited to offer anew experience to residents andcustomers this year.

“It’s going to be a fresh look allthe way around,” he said. “Wewant to keep it exciting. I see usas a support for small businessesin the county, by bringing peoplein, who otherwise wouldn’t behere.”

Williamson continued, “We areawindow to PutnamCounty, andhopefully we’ll open that windowbyMay 25th.”
