This is the inaugural edition of "Leader Look Back," a collection of stories and headlines from 75, 50, 25 years ago this week. This week's edition examines stories from Jan. 9 to 16, 1937, 1962 and 1987.
Cleona C. Wyen, 90, formerly of Seventh Street, Minster, died at 4:05 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 12, 2012, at Briarwood Manor in Coldwater; she had been a patient there for two years.
She was born on March 3, 1921, in St. Patrick, to Joseph and Henrietta (Alternatt) Meyer. On June 3, 1941, she married Victor A. Wyen; he died on May 26, 1974.
NEW BREMEN — A big third quarter was just what the New Knoxville Lady Rangers basketball team needed Thursday night. The Rangers hit 7 of 10 shots from the field and went on to defeat the New Bremen Cardinals 45-25 in a MAC contest at New Bremen.
ROCKFORD — The Minster girls basketball team won its seventh straight game, pummeling Parkway 64-22 in a Midwest Athletic Conference contest on Thursday night.
Minster also held an opponent under 30 points for the fifth straight game.
"Of course you always have things that you need to work on, but overall, I thought we got it inside and got high-percentage shots," said Minster head coach Nann Stechschulte. "I just didn't want to come out flat and I don't think they did."

All I can say is yum... on number six right now....
never heard of it. Where did you get it?
It just came out I'm pretty sure... remember seeing it in a magazine, then saw it at my local liquor store, so I picked some up.
Favorite beer I've ever had. Was on SN torpedo, then read about RUthless on SN Facebook page. Found it at Kroger Saturday and finished all 6 the same night. Went back today and cleared the shelf, unfortunately they only had two 6-packs left, but they are in my fridge now. Sad to know this is a seasonal but I will be stockpiling all winter/spring.
yeah i bought 2 bottles with a "make your own 6pack" deal. i need to go out and get more while its available, and then figure out how to clone it!
Publix had a sale going on and bought a 12pack of these. It is delicious.
"When I READ about the EVILS of DRINKING, I GAVE UP READING!"
I concur. This is an amazing brew. It gives quite a kick too....on number 4 at the moment.
I love it! had a six pack last week when I was in Kentucky for work, I went looking tonight, but I'm travelling for work and couldnt find a GOOD beer store, so I went with some founders Dirty Bastard (from Walmart of all places!!!) instead....I'll settle I suppose lol
If Bud, Miller, and Coors are plain old horse piss, Pabst is what I imagine unicorn piss must taste like
Maybe an unpopular opinion, but I was underwhelmed. I don't have a lot of rye beer experience, so I might not have a taste for it yet (ESBs were the same way for me 5-6 years ago). I mean, it was OK, but I would take a Mirror Pond PA or a SN Torpedo over it.

quote:Religious liberty groups have grave concerns after they learned the Pentagon is vetting its guide on religious tolerance with a group that compared Christian evangelism to "rape" and advocated that military personnel who proselytize should be court martialed.
quote:President Mikey Weinstein and others from his organization met privately with Pentagon officials on April 23. He said U.S. troops who proselytize are guilty of sedition and treason and should be punished – by the hundreds if necessary – to stave off what he called a "tidal wave of fundamentalists." "Someone needs to be punished for this," Weinstein told Fox News. "Until the Air Force or Army or Navy or Marine Corps punishes a member of the military for unconstitutional religious proselytizing and oppression, we will never have the ability to stop this horrible, horrendous, dehumanizing behavior."
quote:In an interview with the Washington Post, Weinstein called proselytizing a "national security threat." "And what the Pentagon needs to understand is that it is sedition and treason," he told the newspaper. "It should be punished." Perkins said it was troubling the Obama Administration would place so much trust in someone like Weinstein. "Unfortunately, it appears our military is on a forced march away from the very freedoms they are sworn to protect," he said. "This language from Weinstein that Christians who share their faith or offer comfort to others from their faith in Jesus Christ is "sedition and treason" is a treasonous statement in and of itself." But Weinstein said they count thousands of Protestants among their ranks – and said they are simply going after fundamentalists. "As soon as we find a fundamentalist Muslim, atheist, Jewish person or anybody else, we will be happy to fight them – but so far they have been few and far between," he said.
quote:When I said yesterday that Christians in America would one day be charged as criminals for their faith, multiple posters said that was preposterous. I guess it's only ridiculous until it happens right?
quote:Maybe I read it wrong but where is the discrimination part. Everybody is entitled to their religious beliefs, of course, but no one should try to convert any one else. respect others religious beliefs and don't try to cram yours down their throats. Religion is personal and everyone should respect others. Just keep it to yourself.
quote:but no one should try to convert any one else
quote:Everybody is entitled to their religious beliefs, of course, but no one should try to convert any one else. respect others religious beliefs and don't try to cram yours down their throats
quote:Have you ever heard of a missionary?
quote:The problems associated with that are many, but chiefly for Christianity, one of the most important aspects of being a Christian IS sharing your faith with others. Denying that is denying religious freedom in America.
quote:Religion is personal and everyone should respect others. Just keep it to yourself.
quote:Never knew all this. Does this explain the Jehovah Witnesses going door to door and all those preachers on TV? Learn something each day.

I posted back in the spring with pics of my Rhododendrons and the trouble they were in as we came out of winter. I pruned them back and planted on new one. I was hoping the worst was over. However, the past few weeks I've seen branches dying and even the new plant has some dying branches. So, I'm worried about the soil, or disease perhaps? I'm posting pics i the hopes that you all might be helpful to me. Thanks in advance. |
Follow-Up Postings:
- Posted by akamainegrower none (My Page) on Sun, Oct 6, 13 at 5:31
There really isn't anything terribly alarming in either photo - both show lots of buds set for next spring and healthy green leaves except for those yellowing ones which are those about to fall naturally. There are some dead branches in the lower photo, but only a couple. This sometimes happens without any obvious cause. The proximity of the hose may have caused physical damage to the branches. There is a good deal of light green growth very late in the season in the lower photo. Too much or too late fertilizer, perhaps? The larger rhododendron is quite leggy and perhaps - can't tell for sure from the photo - shows some need for water in the upper leaves. Legginess like this is sometimes unavoidable because of the angle of direct sun. |

Many of you who are reading this page, have been reading what I write on empowerment, love and self-acceptance for a long time. I love, love, love all the feedback I receive from so many and it inspires me to keep on delivering from my heart and soul.
I started thinking of what I could offer you that might help you to move forward from some craggy spot you may currently be stuck in…
Would you like to:
- Attract love?
- Have a readily available weekly life-changing plan?
- Accelerate your empowerment?
- Let go and Live?
- Work with my materials?
- Be authentically happy now?
- Belong to a members-only program to grow your self-acceptance and success?
If you answered yes to any of those questions then I may have an answer just for you!
When I first thought about offering something, which would suggest deep innovative insights around helping others really become empowered in their life, I thought the only way to do it was weekly one on one and group sessions.
But I kept getting this feeling in my gut drawing me toward helping many more people in a broader way and I decided I was not going to stop there!!

WASHINGTON, D.C. - Yesterday, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Deputy Administrator Rich Serino, in a joint presentation with Health and Human Services Assistant Secretary Dr. Kevin Yeskey, addressed the International Association of EMS Chiefs at their leadership summit in Washington, D.C. Deputy Administrator Serino spoke about the importance of planning for the entire community and working as a team to respond to and recover from disasters and other emergencies.
"FEMA is not the team, FEMA is just part of the team. As emergency managers, we can't simply write our response and recovery plans based on our capabilities, we have to make our capabilities scalable and leverage the entire team in order to successfully respond to larger disasters," said Deputy Administrator Serino. "The EMS community, as an indispensible member of that team, is critical to this discussion."
Deputy Administrator Serino has more than 35 years experience in local emergency services - starting as a volunteer on the Boston ambulance squad and retiring last fall as Chief of Department of Boston EMS and Assistant Director of the Boston Public Health Commission.
Yesterday's remarks are just the latest way that FEMA is reaching out to all levels of government, first responders, non-profits, the faith based community, and especially the public to expand the definition of who is part of the national emergency response team. During the presentation, Deputy Administrator Serino also stressed the important role that the public plays in emergency preparedness and response. To learn more visit www.Ready.gov.

By Clay Masters
Many of Iowa's rivers and lakes are unable to support recreation and fishing and are in need of restoration. Governor Branstad's proposed budget cuts funding for restoration projects. Today on River to River, we talk with the Director of the Iowa Department of Natural Resources, as well as people in communities impacted by the cuts.

Item #: AVERYM3P
AVERY M3 Power 95 Tennis Racquet
Based off the belief that with greater weight comes greater ball speed, the Avery M3 Power alters the Control model for improved depth and pace. In honoring the traditional graphite construction, the 12.7 ounce weight takes an adjustment but provides one of the most stable frames our testing staff has ever tried. The 95 square inch head of the M3 Power features more weight in the head, measuring 7 points head light for more than enough plough-through feeling. Our testing staff took a bit of time to adjust to the high swing weight, but when contact is made, there is no feeling of any instability or loss of control. While we did not feel that the racquet was particularly powerful, it did provide plenty of depth and good penetration. A unique frame, this one felt best suited to baseliners due to the extreme stability which did take away a bit from maneuverability in exchange.
For more information on choosing a racquet, please see the Tennis Express Buyer's Guide.

The Obama Administration continues to act more adversarial towards the American people than it does the enemies of America. With polling showing that a majority of Americans wants the nation's borders secured before any proposals of partition of illegal invaders are considered: the Administration continues to intentionally antagonize at the American public, and continues to violate the law while doing so. It is no accident that the Administration is dumping illegals in red states, then providing them legal representation. This is not only a violation of the law, but is shear harassment of those with the audacity to insist those who invade the nation be returned to whence they originated: and that they be returned expeditiously. Indeed, this is a stunt one would expect to see from a high school athlete jealous of the chess champ because the prettiest girl in the school likes brains over brawn.
The nation's endurance of the Obama Administration can best be compared to a family raising a strong-willed adolescent. The family understanding the immense potential in the child: if only the family could get past the immaturity and the unwillingness of that child to listen to facts and experience. From extreme self-aggrandizement when something goes right, to the constant excuses and blaming of others when things go wrong; even worse, ( and this would even be considered an integrity-challenged child) the habitual lying to justify poor behavior and bad decisions.
Of course Obama's adolescence has been evident from the beginning. It was evident with the posturing of "The Office of the President Elect" it was evident with the propensity of Obama to flip the bird (disguised as wiping his eye, of course), it's been evident with the constant excuses over his failure, (more especially with the "well, someone else did this to" mantra) as well as the immaturity that explains Obama's willingness to fix what's broken in sports instead of focusing on the fact that his policies have destroy good jobs and desperately damaged the national economy.
Adolescence is also evident in the Presidents political party. The challenge is to have a factual, focused conversation about the issues that Americans say are the priority. One will find themselves face to face with a succession of postures: beginning with false-confidence, then dishonest propositions, which will quickly denigrate to the employment of Alinsky tactics (which in themselves are the technique to avoid facts) which will further denigrate to personal attacks, then finally a posture of being supercilious. All attributes of adolescent behavior in their avoidance of reality based on immature idealism.
Wayward adolescents often despise and vilify those who seek to address their bad behavior and poor decisions. One can see in their minds eye the indignant child fuming and accusing the adult of "you just hate me" or in the Administrations case "you're just a racist and a bigot"> Even these accusations are meant to avoid the facts, or a reasonable discussion that will conclude the antithesis of what the adolescent wants because he wants it. In his article Surviving Adolescence, Carl Pickhardt, Ph.D. describes the mentality of the strong willed adolescent:
"If I want something, I want it a lot." "If I want it a lot, I must have it." (Now the conditional shift) "If I must have it then I SHOULD get it." "If I don't get what I should, that is unfair so I will be angry." "Mad at this unfairness, I will keep after what I feel entitled to." Anger at the injustice of refusal energizes stubborn pursuit of what has been denied."
This is normal strong-willed behavior, but the addition of vengeance indicates an under lying mental condition that can be identified by certain activity. Dr. R.W Pies writes in his discourse on adolescent violence:
"In the decade since Columbine, a more comprehensive, general profile has emerged that may help identify adolescents at high risk for violence -- though not necessarily targeted violence. It must also be emphasized that placing adolescents in a high risk category is far from being able to "predict" who will carry out a violent act. "
So not only does the illegal immigrant dumping in Red States indicate the adolescence of the President, and subsequently his Administration; but the increased preparation for war with the American people (who have the audacity to disagree with this immature covey of "professionals") also indicates the violent disorder of the President, et.al. Indeed, the warning signs are present to suspect Obama planning a national Columbine event- hiding behind some legal pretense, of course. Will he follow through? Dr. Pies explains the answer is indeterminable. Is the propensity there? The evidence concludes the answer is "yes".
Finally, the Administration itsself reveals its adolescence. From Attorney General Eric Holder being outraged that the American people would dare to hold him accountable, for his activities, to de facto President, Valerie Jarrett threatening revenge on all who've ever disagreed with her/their perspectives:
"...Jarrett told (staff members) "After we win this election, it's our turn. Payback time.
Everyone not with us is against us and they better be ready because we don't forget. The ones who helped us will be rewarded, the ones who opposed us will get what they deserve. There is going to be hell to pay. Congress won't be a problem for us this time. No election to worry about after this is over and we have two judges ready to go."
She was talking directly to about three of them. Sr. staff. And she wasn't trying to be quiet about it at all. And they were all listening and shaking their heads and smiling while she said it... "
Indicating not only adolescence, but Columbine Syndrome.
Some mistake vengeance and violence to be "cute". Those who are mature understand this to be dangerous. All the indicators are in place. The answer is to give and hold strong boundries on the immature, and the understanding that violence will be confronted and accountability for it will not be circumvented. Imagine the repercussions of all associated with Columbine Politicians: their families will bear the burden of their family name, their children will be castigated for the rest of their lives, and their names will become synonymous with evil. They will join the ranks of Hitler, Genghis Khan, and Vidkun Quisling: all destroying the lives of their family and names.
The American people need strong representation in Washington to circumvent the mental instability of this Administration. The one thing it fears is Obama's removal from office before his second term is finished. This is the "check" in "checks and balances".The last thing anyone wants is a national Columbine scenario originating from the White House.
Medical Science indicates the threat is real…

Richard Shaw reflected on his service to the Cleveland City Schools with pride as he hung up his board of education hat in light of the recent city elections.
"I'm proud we got along and things were accomplished," he said in a recent sit-down interview with the Cleveland Daily Banner. "I think that is what a school board is supposed to be ... it worked out well for the kids and for the people of Cleveland."
Shaw worked alongside fellow board members Tom Cloud, Peggy Pesterfield, Steve Morgan, Dr. Murl Dirksen and Dawn Robinson on the city schools' large and small issues for the past four years. (George Meacham joined the board in 2011.)
According to Shaw, the board never made a decision in a haphazard manner.
"I don't think the public believes that, but everything done in that school board, along with the director of schools, is well thought out and well planned," he said. "They know what they are doing. I think that was the surprise I got being a part of the school board."
Shaw began his lifelong relationship with education in 1951. He began as a student in grade school before progressing to the collegiate level. His degree then allowed him to tackle the complexities of the high school classroom as a teacher.
The school board remained a bit of a mystery to Shaw during his time as a teacher. Sometimes he viewed the seven-man board in an adversarial light— primarily during discussions on raises. Most of the time he felt the board provided its teachers and schools with what each required to educate the students.
Added Shaw, "It was just a different situation — management and labor. We were employees of the school board. We worked for the school board."
Shaw retired from education with 30 years under his belt in 2008. He decided to keep his name in the game by running unopposed for one of the two at-large positions in 2010. His new position provided him with a new perspective on education.
He first realized being a school board member was about more than just policy.
"It involved finding out what the school system needed," he said. "It was interesting to see how the board operated, the dynamics of the board and how we got along with each other. That was a learning experience for me."
Shaw learned quickly his fellow board members were willing to give him a helping hand as he learned the ropes.
He also realized how little in-house fighting went on between his board members.
"This board seems to have one mind," Shaw said. "There is very little controversy. In fact, I think we have very few 'no' votes when we take action."
The board members seemed to agree the "most important resources" in the school system were the teachers and support staff. Attention was then placed on the building and maintenance of school equipment. Shaw said the third objective of the board was building a strong relationship with the Cleveland City Council.
According to Shaw, the city's governing body has responded well to the city schools' requests. The school system pointed out the need for a new elementary school. Council made endeavors to meet the request before the need for a new gym at Cleveland High became apparent.
"They helped us with the (half-cent) sales tax, which has just been a godsend," he said. "We don't have to go to them every single time we need a new bus or we need this."
Shaw gave credit to Director of Schools Martin Ringstaff for keeping the board informed about what transpires in the school system. He pointed to the agendas at the board meetings, including numerous emails and lists of data Ringstaff regularly provides the school board.
Added Shaw, "If anything happens, [the school board] knows about it. If there is a problem with a bus in the morning, we will get an email explaining it."
Ringstaff similarly kept the school board informed as each one of the long-term goals was addressed. Shaw said he was proud of everything the board and Ringstaff had managed to accomplish in his four years.
"I wish I could continue that, but Charlie is a pretty good man," he said. "He will do a good job. He will be all right … I wish him luck. I wish him well."
Shaw said he believes Charlie Cogdill will be welcomed by the board and offered any help necessary.

Without realistic costumes, the actors give the impression of bats, a chipmunk, a mockingbird, and other animals. In doing so, they help us see ourselves. We see narrow-mindedness, lack of imagination, haughtiness, prejudice, fear, and other negative human characteristics; but we also see the beauty of a poetic soul, friendship, a healthy curiosity, the rewards of a willingness to dare to be different.
Bats, as we know, sleep all day and fly around at night beeping radar and eating insects. But the Bat Poet decides to take a look at the daytime. S/he discovers color, shadows, redbirds, and all sorts of unbelievable wonders. When he tells his buddy bats what he has seen, they scoff and think he's kind of weird—why would a bat want to stay awake in the daytime? And what are "colors" anyway?
The play can be performed by as few as six performers or as many as 12. All roles may be played by men or women.
The Bat Poet is a literary gem based on a short story by Randall Jarrell, with "just right" music by Jule Stahl.

Afghanistan: NATO's night raids cause more harm than good, report says
A dramatic rise in the number of NATO's night raids in Afghanistan, aimed at capturing insurgents, is souring relations with the Afghan people, according to the new report.
Maya Alleruzzo/AP/File
Kabul, Afghanistan
Over the past year, US and NATO forces say they have made considerable progress against the Afghan insurgency through the use of night raids. But a new study suggests that the long-controversial nighttime operations are doing more harm than good.
Despite a sharp rise in the number of night raids, there have been no benefits in the form of decreased insurgent attacks, and anger over the operations has continued to mount among Afghan civilians, found the report by the Open Society Foundations and The Liaison Office, a research and analysis group in Kabul.
"The dramatic increase in the number of night raids, and evidence that night raids or other operations may be more broadly targeting civilians to gather information and intelligence, appear to have overwhelmed Afghan tolerance of the practice," wrote the authors of the report. "Afghan attitudes toward night raids are as hostile as ever, if not more so."
International forces rely heavily on night raids to capture or kill high-level insurgents. Night raids are a critical component of NATO's strategy here, but a growing number of Afghans, including President Hamid Karzai, have condemned the raids as disrespectful to Afghan culture, and say they undermine the authority of the government and security forces.

Heroes of the Heartland are recognized for acts of heroism or community service by the American Red Cross of Greater Iowa. This year's recipients include fourth-grader Josh Little who saved a classmate from choking, and Baxter Police Officer Joe Bartello, who rescued a semi-truck driver by swimming through the vehicle's broken windshield after it crashed and submerged in flood water. Host Ben Kieffer talks with these impressive individuals.
For 125 years, four generations of the Sidey family have delivered the news of Adair County. While many small, independently owned papers perished or became parts of large conglomerates the Adair County Free Press persisted.
The Moth Radio Hour has captured the hearts of public radio listeners, but before those "true stories told live" make it to the radio they are told on a stage somewhere in the United States. This Friday that stage is the Iowa City's Englert Theatre. Host Charity Nebbe talks with Maggie Cino, director of The Moth, and the host of Friday's event Peter Aguero.
Iowa's cultural and economic shift away from the family farm created serious problems for the state. It has also created opportunities for reinvention and creativity.
Iowa's fastest growing demographic is comprised of individuals over the age of 85 and according to the U.S. census, Iowa is the fifth oldest state in the nation. Host Charity Nebbe discusses how Iowa's oldest residents can maintain a good quality of life in their 80s, 90s and beyond with gerontologist Peter Martin, whose research specializes in centenarians.
