C. L. “Butch” Otter announced a new $30 million program on Thursday that would provide coverage for basic medical care to nearly 78,000 Idahoans caught in a gap where they neither qualify for health insurance subsidies or Medicaid. Otter told reporters at Associated Press Legislative Preview that he will ask Idaho lawmakers to approve the new plan during this year’s legislative session, which begins Monday. The plan is a statefunded alternative rather than choosing to expand Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act — an option the Republicandominated Idaho Statehouse has rejected repeatedly. However, lawmakers have acknowledged for years that the state’s current system of caring for the indigent is broken. “We haven’t had the political will. I have not seen the political will,” Otter said. “There’s always some resistance to starting a new program, to expanding a program, and especially a program that’s initiated by the federal government. I can understand that resistance” According to the pro- posal, qualifying participants would be adults who currently have no access to affordable coverage and who fall below 100 percent of the federal poverty level. They would be eligible to receive preventive primary medical care services such as acute care for Courtesy photo illnesses, chronic condi- Teaching artists with The Art Museum of Eastern Idaho tion management — like went to Riverview Elementary to give students a chance to See PLAN, 2A draw and paint a dinosaur.

Bell ringers bring in more money By LESLIE SIEGER lsieger@am-news.com BLACKFOOT — Blackfoot bell ringers set a new collection record when they collected $17545.15 this Christmas season. Last year bell ringers collected 11,538.32. This year SEICAA had bell ringers at Cal Ranch, Walgreens, Kesler’s and Broulim’s in Shelley, as well as the two doors at Walmart and Ridley’s Family Market. The addition of collection sites also required the addition of stands. Tanner and Sons made four new kettle stands for volunteers. “I really want to thank Tanner and Sons for the stands. They donated their labor and costs to build the four stands,” said SEICAA Coordinator Traci Hebdon. “Although we didn’t make our goal of $20,000 I think the addition of the four kettles helped to break the collection record of last year.” Funds collected will be used to help with housing, and utilities for those in need in Blackfoot and Bingham County. “It also goes to emergency lodging and transportation and sometimes we can help fill prescriptions,” said Hebdon. SEICAA is getting ready to get to work on their next big fund raiser “Stone Soup,” which will take place on February 29. The fundraiser that is usually held in October was moved to February when board members decided that there were so many fundraisers during the month of October. IDAHO FALLS — The F.M. and Anne G. and Beverly B. Bistline Foundation Fund in the Idaho Community Foundation (ICF) is providing $73,490 in grants to arts-focused nonprofits in southeastern Idaho. The Bistline Fund, which became an ICF fund in 2011, gives grants twice a year. Previously it was the F.M. and Anne G. and Beverly B. Bistline Foundation, a private foundation founded in 1999 by Pocatello philanthropist Beverly Bistline and named in honor of her parents. A panel of people chosen by the Bistline Foundation chooses the recipients. Non-profit organizations in Bingham County are encouraged to apply for these art related grants. The grants are awarded twice each year. The deadlines for these grants are May 1 and Nov. 1. Recipients of the fall/ winter grant cycle are: ° The Art Museum of Eastern Idaho, Inc. (Idaho Falls) received a grant for $1,920 to bring 500 elementary students from schools in Firth, Shelley, Fort Hall and Blackfoot to the Art Museum for guided tours and art lessons. This grant will pay for the bus transportation for the elementary grade students to tour the museum and do an art project. It will also help to pay for the $2 entrance fee to the museum. “For the past 13 years, a teaching artist and exhibits have traveled to classrooms in Eastern Idaho,” said Alexa Stanger, Education Director for the Art Museum. “Last year, we visited 260 classrooms. “This grant will allow students to do art with us here,” she said. In April or May, students will tour the museum. On display will be the art of Marilyn Hansen, a local artist. She is a painter and sculptor. “The students will also do a hands-on project,” said Stanger. “We are so grateful to the Bistline Foundation for this grant.” ° The Cabin (Boise) received a $2,000 grant to provide underwriting support for the Cabin Writing Camp for underserved See GRANTS, 2A Fort Hall Elementary principal gets grant For the MORNING NEWS BLACKFOOT — A Blackfoot educator bringing cultural enrichment to her Native American students was selected to receive a $3,000 Smart Women Grant from Zions Bank. Kathy Malm, principal of Fort Hall Elementary 496 W Hwy 39 School, received the award from Merri Johnson and Troy Eppich of Zions Bank on Dec. 29. Malm plans to use her Smart Women Grant to bring the ancient art of storytelling to the Shoshoni and Bannock Native American students at Fort Hall Elementary School as a way to educate them about their culture. Under her plan, professional storyteller Dr. Layne Gneiting will travel from Mesa, Ariz., to Idaho for a week to teach students how to create and tell their own stories, and to show faculty how they can use storytelling to enhance NoW oFFeriNg learning. “Hearing storytelling develops short-term memory connections in the brain and retelling it moves information to the long-term memory,” Malm says. “Storytelling is very Courtesy photo much part of the children’s Teaching artists with The Art Museum of Eastern Idaho went to Riverview Elementary to give students a chance to See PRINCIPAL, 2A do a hands-on art project.

At about 9:14 a.m., the officers noticed a vehicle at the residence that was not supposed to be there and started an investigation. Two people were arrested for felony burglary from the residence located at 211 North 400 West. “The investigation is ongoing at this time to see if we can solve other burglaries in the surrounding area,” said Bingham County Sheriff Craig Rowland. Suspect one who was arrested is Jimmy Reed Jimmy Reed Griffith Robert Todd Poletti Griffith, age 44, from the Ririe area. Suspect two is Robert Todd Poletti, age 46, from Idaho Falls.

In Fort Hall, this summer camp will begin after July 4. “There is always an amazing array of kids,” LeFavour said. “Sometimes there will be 30 kids; other times there are only three. “It helps if they can write sentences,” she said. “We go out into the area to get ideas and we teach a little of the Shoshone language,” said LeFavour. At the end of the summer camp, the students’ pieces are published in an anthology and they are able to read their works. LeFavour is an author who writes poetry and non-fiction. She also teaches creative writing at the College of Western Idaho and has classes at Harriman State Park near Island Park.

Zions Bank’s Women’s Financial Group provides Smart Women Grants as part of its ongoing commitment to support women in achieving financial independence. The microgrants are awarded to those who promote the empowerment of women or directly benefit women or low-income or underserved populations in Utah and Idaho. Since 2004, 76 microgrants totaling more than $217,000 have been awarded to projects supporting women.

PLAN, continued from 1A Full Wax, Wash and Interior Shampoo diabetes or asthma — and limited in-office behavioral health services. The program would not cover hospital stays, emergency room visits or specialty care. “We believe this is an Idaho solution to try to provide for those folks in the gap,” Otter said. “Is it a total solution? I would be misleading you if I said it was.” Providers would be paid $32 monthly for each enrolled participant. Legislative leaders voiced support for the plan immediately following the Republican governor’s announcement, but offered no promises it would pass. House Minority Assistant Minority Leader Mat Erpelding, D-Boise, said he was disappointed the state plan only partially addressed medical care needs. He added that Idahoans would end up paying more in the end because the state would not be using available federal funding to help cover the costs as provided through Medicaid expansion. Meanwhile, House Speaker Scott Bedke, R-Oakley, and Senate President Pro Tem Brent Hill, R-Rexburg, said the plan would receive full hearings in both chambers. “It’s not lost on us that we’re dealing with people’s lives here. This is a real issue and this is a serious issue,” said Hill. “We’ve gone 100 years without providing this service, we want to do it right. And this seems like a good step.” The primary care plan was one of several topics Otter and legislative leaders discussed Thursday. Lawmakers touched on K-12 education funding, public defense reform and water management all while stressing that they want to adjourn in 65 because it’s an election years. One possible topic will be amending the state’s Human Rights Act to include protections for lesbians, gays, bisexuals and transsexuals by adding the words “sexual orientation” and “gender identity.” “I think we have some pretty good options to address it,” Hill said on adding the words. “But are both sides of the issue willing to address something to get up what they want? We have people on both sides that do not want to give anything to the other side.” Meanwhile, Bedke said that he hasn’t seen any legislation that would allow Idahoans to carry concealed guns without a permit, but said he’s interested to see how and if the legislation moves through the Statehouse.

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — The recent arrests in Utah of three people accused of stealing thousands of dollars’ worth of baby formula is the latest example of a problem that officials say is vexing stores and police nationwide as thieves systematically swipe the mixture from shelves and resell it to unsuspecting parents. Baby formula is a major expense for new parents, with small canisters starting around $20 and special or prescription blends costing two or three times that. It’s also widely used. More than a third of infants receive formula in addition to breastmilk in their first six months, the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates. Often, babies who are weaned off breastmilk will continue to drink formula into their toddler years. The high price and broad demand make it an enticing target for thieves, who typically sell the stolen formula at flea markets or list it on websites like Craigslist and eBay. In late December, police in Logan, about 80 miles north of Salt Lake City, confiscated 422 cans of stolen formula worth $8,000 to $10,000. It came from stores in Logan and three other northern Utah cities, and officers are looking for ties to similar recent thefts in Idaho cities about 150 miles away, Police Capt. Curtis Hooley said. In Pleasanton, California, thefts of large amounts of formula are reported at least once a month, with thieves frequently hitting multiple stores around the San Francisco Bay Area, according to police Lt. Kurt Schlehuber. He doesn’t think the culprits are parents trying to feed their kids. “There are people that are making money off of selling the stuff,” Schlehuber said. In April, Pleasanton police arrested two people suspected of stealing dozens of containers of the product. Officers happened to see the pair running from the store with shopping baskets full of formula. But arrests can be rare when police often have only an anonymous face captured by a surveillance camera, Schlehuber said. Around the country, law enforcement agencies in recent years have reported heists ranging from thousands to several million dollars’ worth of baby formula. In 2009, Florida authorities arrested 21 people accused in an elaborate theft ring that officials say pilfered more than $2 million in formula annually. Investigators working on that sting — called “Operation Hot Milk” — said thieves were paid between $100 and $300 a day and used multiple lookouts while filling bags with formula. They hit 15 or more stores a day and later repackaged the formula and sold it in other states, authorities said.

In this column, I will discuss the findings regarding the Veterans Benefits Administration. The Veterans Benefits Administration (VBA) is one of the three unique branches of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). The VBA administers a wide range of veterans’ benefits, including compensation, vocational assistance and pensions. Filing a claim is the initial step to seeking compensation for disabilities resulting from a veteran’s military service. Claims can be based on disabilities that existed when entering military service but were made worse, disabilities that occurred during service, or disabilities that arose after leaving military service. For more information, please visit http://www.benefits.va/compensation/process.asp. I am grateful to the VBA personnel who process veterans’ claims efficiently and seek to ensure that veterans can access needed benefits. The work they do to ease paperwork burdens and keep veterans informed throughout the process is indispensable. Many are working hard within the VBA to help veterans, as more than twice as many (53 percent) of survey participants characterized their interactions with VBA staff as “satisfying” or better compared to the twenty-two percent who found their interactions with VBA staff to be “dissatisfying” or worse. Fifty-two percent of survey participants were “satisfied” or better with their overall experiences with the VBA, and 41 percent said their experiences with claims processing were “satisfying” or better. Those who are working diligently on behalf of veterans deserve to be commended. However, the survey also showed that the VBA needs special attention. Twenty-nine percent of survey participants were “dissatisfied” or worse with their experiences with the VBA, and 39 percent characterized their experiences with claims processing as “dissatisfying” or worse. My staff and I are working with the veterans community to identify ways to improve the VBA’s ability to serve veterans. Specifically, I will focus on working with VBA leadership to improve the following issues: • Pace — Participants frequently found the VBA’s pace to be slow and expressed frustrations with delays in claims processing. • Accessibility — Participants frequently stated that telephone assistance was poor and that they often could not reach a person to help them. Several individuals claimed they had never interacted with the VBA because they were not aware of benefits available to them. • Claims Consideration — A large portion of participants expressed their sense that the VBA’s general policy is to deny all claims and require veterans to go through an appeals process before a claim is fully considered. • Travel Reimbursements — Many individuals expressed frustrations with changes to travel reimbursement processes that result in lengthy delays and undue burden on many rural veterans who cannot afford high travel costs.

According to the Pew Research Center, only 19 percent now say they “trust the federal government to do what is right always or most of the time.” This is close to the lowest it has been in the last 50 years. Consider that in 1964, 80 percent expressed trust in the federal government. In recent Gallup polling, 69 percent of Americans say big government is the “biggest threat” to the nation’s future. There is, not surprisingly, a big difference among Republicans and Democrats, with 88 percent of Republicans and 53 percent of Democrats saying government is the biggest threat to the country. But worth noting is a huge jump in the percentage of Democrats over recent years saying government is the biggest threat, with the current 53 percent figure up from 32 percent in 2009. To top it all off, in Gallup’s December polling, only 20 percent express satisfaction with the “way things are going in the United States at this time”; 79 express dissatisfaction with it. This deep cynicism about government and the direction of the country comes at a time when Americans have never had so much government in their lives. Prior to 1970, less than 30 percent of the federal budget consisted of payments to individuals. Today it is 70 percent. What does all of this say about the upcoming presidential election? With the voting season about to be formally launched in Iowa, less than a month away, what should we be thinking about? First, dissatisfaction, and in particular the concerns about big government, bode well for the prospects of putting a Republican in the White House. Second, Republicans should view this time of protracted dissatisfaction as an opportunity for recapturing and crystallizing vision and meaning for our nation. We need, today, more than a president. We need a leader, a statesman. Concerns about the country’s direction should be answered with renewed vision for our free country and its meaning. Concerns about government should be answered by proposing to restore government to its original and proper place as defined in our constitution. It’s always much easier to say what is wrong than what is right, and powerseeking politicians prefer the easy road. Negative campaigning, campaigns focused on attacking others, campaigns focused on exploiting what is making voters unhappy, can, if done well, pave the way to getting elected. But this does not pave the way to getting our nation on a positive course, which is what is needed. I am thinking of a how writer Herman Wouk defined heroism. He said heroes “are good men who embody -- by the cast of destiny -- the virtue of their whole people in a great hour.” Americans today are looking for heroic leadership, in this sense. The welfare state is like drugs. The quick fix solves nothing and leads ultimately to bankruptcy. American virtue is about a free and responsible people, where individuals have their own lives under control by living according to traditional, Godly laws. And where government protects individual freedom and does not impede it. Here are my five principles for restoring America: re-committing to traditional values that protect life, property and family; minimizing government interference so that individuals may maximize personal opportunity through work; focusing on the importance of education and control of parents to choose where to educate their children; supporting a culture where individuals build wealth through savings and investing, not looking to government; creating a culture of caring for others, particularly through local charitable giving. The many particular things bothering Americans today -- slow economic growth, immigration policy, urban crime, pointless and deadly violence, international chaos and threats of terrorism -- are all symptoms of the absence of American vision and leadership. This election should be about statesmanship and the revival of American principles. Star Parker is an author and president of CURE, the Center for Urban Renewal and Education.

Thought for Today: “Anxiety never yet successfully bridged over any chasm.” — Giovanni Ruffini, Italian writer (1807-1881). Star Parker Today in history Today is Friday, Jan. 8, the eighth day of 2016. There are 358 days left in the year. Today’s Highlights in History: On Jan. 8, 1918, President Woodrow Wilson outlined his Fourteen Points for lasting peace after World War I. Mississippi became the first state to ratify the 18th Amendment to the Constitution, which established Prohibition. On this date: In 1642, astronomer Galileo Galilei died in Arcetri, Italy. In 1790, President George Washington delivered his first State of the Union address to Congress in New York. In 1815, the last major engagement of the War of 1812 came to an end as U.S. forces defeated the British in the Battle of New Orleans, not having gotten word of the signing of a peace treaty. In 1863, America’s First Transcontinental Railroad had its beginnings as California Gov. Leland Stanford broke ground for the Central Pacific Railroad in Sacramento. (The transcontinental railroad was completed in Promontory, Utah, in May 1869.) In 1964, President Lyndon B. Johnson, in his State of the Union address, declared an “unconditional war on poverty in America.” In 1975, Judge John J.

Fazliddin Kurbanov received the sentence Thursday that includes three years of supervised release and a $250,000 fine. He will also face deportation proceedings after serving the prison sentence. A federal jury in August convicted Kurbanov of conspiracy, attempting to support a terrorist organization and possession of bomb-making components. Kurbanov has maintained his innocence. “Your honor,” Kurbanov told U.S. District Judge Edward J. Lodge through an interpreter, “I’d like to say that I’m not a terrorist. I’ve never been a terrorist.” But Lodge in handing down the sentence said Kurbanov “intended to commit jihad against the United States.” Prosecutors say the 33-year-old Russianspeaking truck driver who fled Uzbekistan in 2009 downloaded jihadist and martyrdom videos from a terrorist website and communicated with a terrorist organization, the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan. Authorities monitored his communications and arrested him in 2013. Besides targeting Boise, authorities said, Kurbanov also discussed with a confidential FBI source targeting military bases, in particular West Point Military Academy in New York. Kurbanov received 15 years each on the first two counts to be served concurrently and 10 years on possessing the bombmaking components to be served after completing Man pleads guilty Around the state Service to killing wife, girl Forest plans salvage POST FALLS (AP) — A man accused of strangling his wife and her daughter in Post Falls has pleaded guilty. Angel Albertico Morales-Larranaga, 26, entered his plea Wednesday in Kootenai County court. As part of a plea agreement, Kootenai County Prosecuting Attorney Barry McHugh agreed to withdraw his intent to seek the death penalty, according to The Spokesman-Review. The agreement calls for Morales-Larranaga to plead guilty to two counts of first-degree murder and serve two consecutive life sentences with no chance of parole. As part of the agreement, MoralesLarranaga also waived his right to appeal the conviction and sentence. “We worked with law enforcement and the victim’s family to come to a resolution,” McHugh said. Morales-Larranaga is charged in the deaths of 24-year-old Facunda Velenzuelaleon and 6-yearold Dayana Valencia on July 8, 2014. A Post Falls police report says Morales-Larranaga told a friend he strangled his wife. The friend asked about the girl and said Morales-Larranaga replied that she was hitting him so he “had to kill her, too.” Kootenai County Public Defender John Adams said his client will regret killing Dayana and Velenzuelaleon for the rest of his life. “I am saddened at the complete loss of life in this case,” Adams said Wednesday. “Angel’s wife, Facunda, and his daughter, Dyanna, are dead, and now he will spend the rest of his young life in prison. Angel is as remorseful as a man could be and will forever regret his unplanned and uncontrolled actions.” Morales-Larranaga will be sentenced Jan. 26.

Agency officials are streamlining the process to approve the removal of dead and dying trees scorched by the summer’s wildfires, The Lewiston Tribune reports. The first trees could be sold starting in February or early March, with more logging and sales to follow. The Forest Service is planning the salvage logging as categorical exclusions, which allows the agency to skip the normally lengthy analysis of proposed timber sales that is required by the National Environmental Policy Act. The mechanism is used for projects that are deemed to have insignificant environmental impacts. The timber sales will be in two varieties: hazard trees that are dead and red winter 4.32, up 1; dark northern spring 5.34, up 5; barley 7.18, unchanged; hard white 5.02, up 1; corn 4.13 - 7.37, unchanged; PORTLAND__ soft white and white club 5.20-5.28, unchanged to up 6; hard red 5.42-5.52, up 1; DNS 6.14-6.34, up 5; corn 4.31-4.34, up 1-3; oats 265.00/ton, 3.84 bushel, unchanged; NAMPA— Soft white 8.71, up 10 cwt; 5.23, up 6 per bushel.

Defense attorney Chuck Peterson asked Lodge for a sentence in the 13-year range, noting Kurbanov hadn’t actually harmed anyone and would be deported after prison. “That’s punishment enough for what he did,” Peterson said. U.S. Assistant Attorney Aaron Lucoff asked Lodge to sentence Kurbanov to 35 years in prison. “Society needs to be protected from this defendant,” Lucoff told Lodge. Lucoff said Kurbanov wanted to strike Americans on U.S. soil to avenge U.S. military action in central Asia. Prosecutors called four witnesses at the sentencing hearing, one an FBI agent and explosives expert and three jail workers at the Ada County Jail. They also showed videos of Kurbanov in the jail spitting on a jail deputy and spitting on a camera and other areas of a special holding cell. One of the jail workers testified that Kurbanov soaked paper towels with his urine and threw it into another inmate’s cell. Lodge said he was “taken aback” by the videos and testimony. He also said Kurbanov lacked an appreciation for a system of government that would spend more than $1 million on his defense on the foundational idea that anyone accused of a crime is innocent until proven guilty. “The lengthy term of imprisonment imposed by the Court ensures that this defendant, who by his words and acts was intent on taking American lives, does not and will not pose any further threat to the safety and security of our community,” said U.S. Attorney Wendy Olson in a statement after the sentencing. dying along 140 miles of roads or on recreation and administrative sites, or dead trees and trees the agency believes will die in the next five years. It is unclear how much timber the sales could yield, but the plan is to include seven sales over more than 1,100 acres. “Right now volume is pretty variable,” said planner Sara Daugherty. “The (logging) units need to be laid out, which depends on burned severity and mortality of the trees.” Environmental groups have been critical of the use of the categorical exclusion over such a large area of land. “It’s supposed to be used on things that don’t have an impact, not a 40 million-board-feet sale or even one that is 1,100 acres in the same place as a 40 million-board-feet sale,” said Gary Macfarlane, ecosystem defense director of the Moscow-based group Friends of the Clearwater. “I think they need to look at those together and do right by the American people and take a closer look at what they do out there.” for the department before her promotion, succeeds former director Jeff Sayer.

Remember, “… without faith it is impossible to please Him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.” (Hebrews 11:6). Do you believe in God? Without faith (strong trust) in Him, one cannot please Him. God revealed Himself in the person of Jesus Christ. By faith, put your in Jesus. Have you trusted in Jesus Christ as your Savior? Trust Him today.

Prayer concerns and praises were covered by Glen Pierpoint. Pastor Kite began his message saying, “Waiting, waiting. This is not what I expected: traffic lights, computer, fast food or check-out lines.” Moans and groans let him know we agreed. “Turn in your Bibles to Luke 2:25. Do you hear that? Turning pages; I love that sound. Let’s consider Simeon. What kind of person is God looking for? He has a specific purpose for every blessed one of us. What do we read about Simeon? He was righteous, devout and patient. Hmm, ‘God grant me patience, and right now.’” Nervous laughter. “The more closely we walk with God, spiritually and physically obedient, the more we will understand what God has planned for us. And our joy will deepen. God had revealed to Simeon that he would not pass before he saw Jesus — the Christ. When Simeon held the baby in his arms he praised God for he said, ‘I have seen your salvation.’ How are we at waiting? However, like the ten maidens each with a lamp — be prepared when the bride groom comes. Five were not.” Prayer Chain contact Debbie Chappell. Pray without ceasing. Pray for those on our prayer list.

The following is a reprint from Signs of The Times Magazine, August 2009 First Things First Neal Becker tells of an imaginary conversation between two dogs, which illustrates the source of true happiness. There’s a fable about a puppy that was vigorously chasing its tail one day. An old dog saw him and asked, “Why are you chasing your tail?” The puppy answered, “I have learned that the best thing a dog can have is happiness, and I have discovered that happiness is in my tail. Therefore, I am chasing my tail, and when I catch it, I shall have happiness!” The old dog said, “My son, I too have paid attention to the problems of the dog universe and have formed some opinions. I too have learned that happiness is a fine thing for a dog to have and that happiness is in my tail. But I have also noticed that when I chase my tail, it keeps running away from me, but when I stop and go about my business, it comes after me.” It’s the same way in our human life. When we chase after happiness, it runs away from us, but when we go about our business, happiness will come along after us. Psalm 146:5 (NKJV) Happy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help, Whose hope is in the Lord his God Calvary Bible Church 1248 Camas Street 208-847-0227 or 208-705-1330 Blackfoot, ID 83221 Online: www.cbcblackfoot.com We would love to have you visit on Sundays at 10 a.m. for Sunday School and 11 a.m. for Church.

Hebrews 11 tells us over and over how some had to live by faith St. Bernard Catholic Church 570 W. Sexton St., Blackfoot and St. Kateri Tekakwitha Chapel, Sheepskin Road and D Street, Fort Hall “Catholics, Keep Your Trees Up!” is an article on Catholic.com by Christopher Check. (Ihttp:// www.catholic.com/blog/christopher-check/catholics-keep-yourtrees-up) It offers a clear explanation for the behavior of Catholics everywhere to keep Christmas celebrations rolling well beyond December 25. The Church, he says is “generous with joy.” She extends Christmas to the celebration of Epiphany or the Twelfth Night as the English call it, he continues. This year Epiphany was January 6 and celebrated in the United States last Sunday, Jan. 2. Epiphany, literally translated as “Reveal,” honors the events of Christ’s life of being adored by the Magi, his Baptism, and first Miracle at Cana. Many complete Christmas with the Feast of the Baptism of the Lord, the first Sunday after January 6. In fact, Check continues, this year Catholics may very well wish to keep their decorations up through January 11. “If you want to be really traditional, you can celebrate what the faithful called ‘Christmastide.’ In the old rite, or what we today call the Extraordinary Form, Christmastide lasted for 40 days to February 2, and correspond with the 40 days of Lent, and the 40 days from Easter to Ascension Thursday. A 40-day party? Gloria in Excelsis!” In other news, if you are planning a Quinceanera this year or next year; please register for the special classes necessary for those who wish to include a Mass in their celebration. Please contact Alice in St. Bernard’s office, 785-1935. This Sunday, after the Masses at St. Bernard Church, breakfast burritos will be sold to assist young people to raise funds for ICYC. Come early and support the youth. Also remember that religious education classes resume at St. Bernard’s this coming Sunday, please be cautious when entering or leaving the parking lots near the church. Mass is celebrated Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday at 8 a.m. in St. Bernard Church. Adoration generally follows the Friday morning mass until noon.

Why do you believe what you do? Are you a Mormon or a Baptist because that’s how you were raised? Do you go to a certain church because you like its location, its preacher or its programs? Do you believe what you do because it feels right? Please understand that these are all dangerous reasons to choose a church or belief-system. Why? Because our family can be wrong (Matt. 10:34-39), our traditions can be wrong (Matt. 15:1-9) and our feelings can be wrong (Matt. 7:21-23). In the end, we have to believe what we do because it is the truth. God’s word is truth (John 17:17), and therefore, our worship must be based on God’s word (John 4:24).

Box 427 Firth, Idaho 83236 208-346-6271 or 208-589-1557 This Sunday we celebrate the Baptism of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. When I think of baptism, I think of the five senses the Holy Spirit is using in baptism. The element of water seen pour out, hearing the Word spoken, speaking our confessions, smelling the candle burning and touching the water on the baptized are all experienced in baptism. This God-given sacrament gives us rebirth. Just as the Holy Spirit ascended onto Jesus when John baptized Him, the Holy Spirit enters us making us new children of God. At Bethel, we remember our baptism when the Holy Spirit made us new. Come and feed on the way and the truth. The Holy Spirit, not our works, brings us to know Jesus as our Lord and Savior. Our response is to serve others because of Him. Come to this holy place to find your true identity--a child of God, baptized into His kingdom. Together we share in this celebration of being who we are--brothers and sisters of Jesus. Let us celebrate with you! We welcome all to our service at 9 a.m. every Sunday. A weekly text study is held on Wednesdays at noon. Bring a lunch and enjoy the conversation discussing each week’s scripture readings. Please come and enjoy the fellowship and discipleship offered at Bethel Lutheran in Firth. Glenn Rawson winding staircase to the third floor west office of Joseph Smith. They had washed and prepared themselves, and now were there to attend to the ordinance of sacred annointings as found in the Old Testament. Joseph Smith Sr., being the oldest man present and church patriarch, sat in the chair first. The First Presidency gathered around him, consecrated oil, and anointed and blessed him each in turn. Father Smith then rose and began to anoint those who had just blessed him. Then the members of the Presidency blessed each man following his anointing. Afterwards the other men in the room were anointed and blessed. That significant night the spirit of the Lord was poured out in rich abundance. “The House was filled with the glory of God,” and many received visions and the ministrations of angels, and so testified. Among them was Joseph Smith Jr., who received one of the greatest and most comforting revelations ever given to man. He said, “The Heavens were opened upon us and I beheld the Celestial Kingdom of God, and the glory thereof … I saw the transcendent beauty of the gate through which the heirs of that kingdom will enter, which was like unto circling flames of fire; also the blazing throne of God, whereon was seated the Father and the Son. I saw the beautiful streets of that Kingdom which had the appearance of being paved with gold.” Then Joseph described seeing several people, including his father and mother who were both yet alive. Clearly, this was a vision of future events. But then Joseph saw his brother Alvin, who had died back in 1823 at the age of 25. How could Alvin be in the highest heaven with God since he had never had the opportunity to be baptized? Joseph was then given the answer to one of the greatest theological questions of the millennia—what about all those who live and die and never have the opportunity to hear the Gospel and receive its ordinances? Are they saved or damned, and what is the justification for either. The Lord said, “All that shall die henceforth without a knowledge of it, who would have received it with all their hearts, shall be heirs of that kingdom. For I the Lord will judge all men according to their works, according to the desire of their hearts. Joseph then learned that all children who die before they come of age are automatically saved in the highest heaven of God. Can you imagine the joy just for Joseph alone, who had lost his brother Alvin and some of his children to death? They were saved and he would see them again! It did not stop there. Joseph also saw into the terrestrial kingdom. He saw the Twelve Apostles and the Savior in their midst in foreign lands. He saw those Apostles escorted into the Celestial Kingdom of God, and many other things did he see, he said, “which the tongue of man cannot describe in full.” This night would begin a rich Pentecostal season lasting about 15 weeks in which more saints witnessed visions, angels, spiritual gifts, and even the Savior himself, than perhaps any other time in history. And the point is this—it is history—written, recorded, signed and certified by eyewitnesses who were there.

After one quarter their were 10 fouls committed and just two field goals made, combined. The score after that opening quarter was 4-4. With both teams shooting, well down right awful, defense played a big part in the game. Rigby’s defense held the Broncos scoreless for 7:30 over the end of the first quarter and the first chunk of the second. During that scoreless streak Rigby managed just seven points to lead 9-4.

After falling behind by as many as 16-points, the Lady Panthers came screaming back with a furious fourth quarter comeback that fell just short as the Redskins swept the season series with a 53-49 victory. “That’s a good team over there,” Snake River head coach Rich Dunn said. “I’m proud of the way that my team came battling back though and I tell you what, we wouldn’t have even been close if it wasn’t for Jessica Adams tonight. Jessica Adams came in there at the close of the second quarter and gave us a spark that carried us into the second half. Without her, we wouldn’t have even had a chance there at the end.” Snake River struggled with the bigs of Teton as the visitors pounded away in the paint with the duo of Shelby Kincaid and Jenna Abbott ing to the fourth it was a 13-point deficit for the home team. A bucket to open the quarter by Teton pushed that lead to fifteen and that is when the Panthers began their comeback push, outscoring the Redskins 13-2 over the next four minutes to close the gap to just 4-points. Allysa Crumley was a key cog during the run as she tallied five of her team leading 15-points during the run. Unfortunately the run came up just short however as the Redskins converted a pair of key free throws down the stretch.

Apparently it wasn’t enough for the Rams to pack up their gear and leave behind a useless dome taxpayers built for them. They had to insult the local citizenry on the way out by calling them lousy fans who can’t support multiple sports franchises. If it came as a surprise to loyal Rams fans, well, they should have seen it coming. It wasn’t that long ago, 1995 to be exact, when then-owner Georgia Frontiere strong-armed the NFL into moving the Rams from the Los Angeles area to St. Louis. Frontiere said so few fans were coming to games that the franchise risked bankruptcy by staying in Anaheim. Now the Rams want to go back, to a new stadium development they want to build near the city’s airport. In asking the league to leave, the team said that accepting conditions for a new stadium in St. Louis would leave the team “well on the road to finan- cial ruin.” It was, of course, nonsense then. It’s even more nonsense now. However the Los Angeles franchise shell game plays out — the Chargers and Raiders also filed this week to move to LA — the idea that an NFL team might be in financial difficulty is laughable. Massive guaranteed TV contracts shared equally among the 32 teams — last year each got $226.4 million just from TV alone — almost guarantee expenses will be paid before any tickets are sold. It’s also not about fans, or the lack of them, as the Rams suggested in their 29-page application to leave St. Louis. There are more than enough loyal fans to fill the new $1.1 billion stadium that civic leaders are proposing in St. Louis in what looks like a futile effort to keep the team. No, the move for all three teams is about potential and potential valuation. The LA market is big and vast, and occupying a new stadium in it — whether the proposed development by the Rams in Inglewood or a shared facility for the Chargers and Raiders in nearby Carson — is about as close as it gets to a license to print money. While Southern California residents haven’t exactly been holding demonstrations in the streets demanding a team, there will surely be enough to fill whatever stadium or stadiums eventually get built. But the real value lies in a wide open market in the second largest city in the country that all three teams can’t wait to exploit. According to Forbes, the Rams ranked 29th among the 32 NFL teams last year with a valuation of $1.45 billion. That’s not bad considering the team was essentially valued at about half that just six years ago when owner Stan Kroenke scooped up the 60 percent he didn’t own from heirs of Frontiere. It’s entirely conceivable — actually almost guaranteed — that the team’s value could double again the minute it moves to Los Angeles. And with that much money at stake, there should be some interesting conversations among the very rich when NFL owners meet next week with a decision on the Los Angeles moves on the table. “There will probably be at least one team moving to LA,” said Kansas City owner Clark Hunt, a member of the league’s relocation committee. “I can’t speculate who that might be.” Hunt might not, but we can. The Rams aren’t staying in St. Louis, that’s increasingly clear. There could even be a case made that they rightfully belong back in LA, and that’s where they will go. The same company that designed Jerry Jones’ monument to himself in Dallas has come up with drawings for the old Hollywood Park site Kroenke already controls. Kroenke says it can host two teams, and that he is willing to invest $800 million in equity on his own plus a “reasonable” relocation fee. The Chargers and Raiders have proposed their own joint stadium in Carson, but there won’t be two stadiums built. The most likely scenario is that the Rams and Chargers team up in one stadium, and the Raiders are offered some sort of consolation prize to remain in Oakland. That will make everyone happy except, of course, the fans of San Diego and St. Louis who for generations have supported NFL teams. No matter, because they’ve always been the last consideration in a league ruled by greed. ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — Gary Kubiak stuck to his word in naming Peyton Manning his starter even after declaring that Brock Osweiler had done nothing to deserve a demotion. “Peyton’s our quarterback,” Kubiak said on the day Manning hobbled to the sideline and gave way to his longtime understudy following his fourth interception against Kansas City on Nov. 15. “If he’s healthy and ready to go, Peyton’s our quarterback.” Manning is healthy and ready to go. So, he’ll be under center for the Denver Broncos (12-4) in the playoffs. Kubiak called his quarterbacks into his office Thursday when players returned from a three-day furlough and informed them of his decision. “I feel really good about this,” Kubiak said. “I feel good about how far Peyton has come, where he’s at physically, mentally. I could see it happening throughout the course of the last two weeks. I’m excited for him to get going.” Manning said his left foot is fine now and he’s even refreshed after taking nearly two months off. He also suffered no lingering effects from Damion Square’s textbook helmetto-chest hit on Sunday in what the 39-year-old quarterback called his welcomeback-to-football moment. “I felt good going into the game Sunday, had no issues coming out,” Manning said. “And these past couple of days off certainly helped as well.” Manning praised his backup, saying the Broncos wouldn’t be the AFC’s top seed without him, “but I’m looking forward to being back” calling the shots beginning Jan. 17 in the divisional round. Osweiler reacted the way Kubiak and GM John Elway hoped he would: with disappointment and determination. “I stand behind Peyton. I stand behind Coach. I stand behind this team,” Osweiler said. “You’re going to see the same exact guy out of me as you’ve seen the whole season. Bottom line: I just care about this football team winning games. If coach thinks Peyton gives the team the best chance, then I fully support that.” Manning missed seven starts with a torn plantar fascia. He returned to action Sunday when he relieved Osweiler in the second half and led the Broncos to a 27-20 win over San Diego. That marked Manning’s first game as a backup since his freshman year at Tennessee. Manning went 7-2 as Denver’s starter, although he struggled all season with his foot injury, which affected his throwing motion and led to right shoulder and rib injuries as well. It also forced the Broncos to put Manning in the pistol or shotgun on most snaps. On Sunday, he was under center 40 percent of the time, which did wonders for their ground game. “I’m glad to have him back,” receiver Demaryius Thomas said. “I’m excited to see how he’ll play now that he’s healthy.” Osweiler went 5-2 and both losses came down to dropped passes. That’s why Thomas said not to call this a quarterback quandary but dependable depth. “We’ve got two guys we can go with,” Thomas said, “and both of them can win games for us.” Osweiler, who becomes a free agent this offseason, displayed the athleticism, acumen, accuracy and arm strength to run Kubiak’s offense, but his inexperience also showed. He failed to check out of a cornerback blitz Sunday in which he was sacked and stripped of the football, one of five turnovers following his 72-yard touchdown toss to Thomas 31 seconds into the game. Manning got the same look a couple of times and checked into run plays away from the pressure. His superior recognition and line calls helped the Broncos gain a season-best 210 yards rushing. Manning also drubs Osweiler in the experience department: Osweiler has never taken a snap in the playoffs. Manning is 11-13 in the playoffs over his 18-year career. That includes an NFL-record nine first-game exits, three Super Bowls and one ring. Osweiler proved his value and improved his earning power over the last two months. Kubiak said he’s not concerned that benching him will be detrimental to their efforts to re-sign Osweiler nor is he worried he’ll crater now that he’s been benched. “We think the world of Brock,” Kubiak said. “He’s done a hell of a job. He’s played extremely well in some tough situations. He’s a very tough kid.” Osweiler said he’ll be ready if called upon again: “If anybody knows that you need to be prepared regardless of the situation, that’s me,” he said. Manning is trying to become the oldest quarterback to win a Super Bowl and the first to lead two teams to a ticker tape parade.

I get no benefits, and my boss refuses to train me for anything more skilled than what I'm doing now, because he needs me for the lowest position. I ride a bike to work, and he often has me work at multiple locations in the area, sending me to pick up supplies. Recently, he wanted to borrow my bike to get to an appointment and didn't want to pay for a cab. I said, "Nobody rides my bike but me." He was very insistent, but I still said no. If he damaged it and refused to pay, what would I do? Anyway, he said, "I'm going to remember this the next time you need a favor." I wasn't aware that I had ever asked him for a favor. When I questioned him, he rattled off the time I left early to see the doctor because of a job-related injury, and the time he gave me the day off because I was sick, and I had to agree to come in the morning anyway. I wasn't paid for the sick day, either. I adding how awkward it would be if he accidentally Kathy damaged it.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You can offer verbal help, but don’t promise to take care of someone else’s problems. You are better off expanding your interests and improving your position.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Don’t take chances with your health. Illness and injury will set you back if you are reckless. Ask for help and be prepared to do what’s necessary to reach your goal. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Re-evaluate your current position. Take a pass on a job that has limited growth and benefits.

Discipline will be required if you want to avoid a loss. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Be wary of anything or anyone that appears too good to be true. Stick to simple foolproof means and methods in order to avoid being taken advantage of by an unscrupulous operator. DEAR DOCTOR K: My doctor thinks I may have an overactive thyroid. What does that mean? Which of my symptoms did it cause? GARFIELD January 8, 2016 2011 - 7B am-news.com DEAR READER: Hyperthyroidism, or overactive thyroid, is a condition in which your body makes too much thyroid hormone. Thyroid hormones are made by the thyroid gland, which sits just under the skin of the lower front part of your neck. Thyroid hormones regulate the body’s energy. When levels of thyroid hormones are unusually high, the body burns energy faster. As a result, many body processes speed up. (I’ve put an illustration comparing normal and hyperthyroid function on my website, AskDoctorK.com.) The symptoms of hyperthyroidism tend to come on slowly, and they vary from person to person. The typical person with hyperthyroidism endures sleepless nights, heat intolerance, excess sweating, weight loss, a voracious appetite and loose bowels. Other signs and symptoms of hyperthyroidism include: -- Enlarged thyroid gland -- Special trouble dealing with hot weather -- Exhaustion -- Emotional volatility (often with anxiety and Eugenia Last Astro-Graph who can offer you what you are worth. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Discuss possibilities and share your ideas with someone who can contribute and help you make your dream come true. A business trip or interview will bring good results. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Don’t give up on your beliefs or adhere to someone else’s lifestyle and traditions if they don’t suit you. Living a lie will not bring you closer to the happiness you deserve. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You’ll have remarkable ideas and insight into how you can make your dream a reality. An emotional relationship has the potential to enhance your creative imagination. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -Personal gains can be made. Dr. Anthony Komaroff Ask Doctor K depression) -- Nervousness and agitation -- Excessive thirst -- Racing and irregular heartbeat -- Fast pulse -- Hand tremors -- Muscle weakness -- Bulging eyes -- Lighter menstrual periods -- Infertility -- Generalized itching (with or without hives) Certain symptoms are more common in people older than 65. Indeed, older people often don’t have the agitation and tremors seen in younger people with hyperthyroidism -- it’s called “apathetic hyperthyroidism.” Depression and heart failure are more common in older patients. A clue that an older person has hyperthyroidism is a racing pulse: a heart rate of 90 beats per minute, even when the person is resting. It’s not always obvious that symptoms such as excess thirst or increased appetite signal that something is wrong. People often don’t see a doctor until they experience palpitations or shortness of breath. Sometimes their family brings them to see the doctor because of personality changes. Treatment stops the thyroid from overworking. Three different treatment options are available. One option is to use radioactive iodine to destroy part of the thyroid. Another option is to take medication that blocks the thyroid’s ability to produce hormone. Finally, surgery may be done to remove all or part of the thyroid. If you are treated with radioactive iodine or surgery, you will most likely need to take thyroid hormone replacement pills for the rest of your life. This will replace the hormone that your body is no longer making. Hyperthyroidism can have serious consequences if left untreated. It increases the risk for the bone-thinning disease osteoporosis. It can lead to heart difficulties, as too much thyroid hormone makes your heart work faster and harder. So it’s a good thing your doctor diagnosed the condition. I expect the treatment will be effective.
