By: Lovina Eicher

Timothy. Meanwhile, I needto go to town this morning asIm running short on a lot ofthings.

We would like to go to twodifferent viewings tonight ifpossible. Our sympathy goesto the Amos Eicher family of

Shipshewana, Ind. Amos andDad were first cousins and hepassed on Wednesday.

Sympathy also goes to Danand Irene as they mourn theloss of Irenes father. Losinga parent is never easy, butGod helps us through thehard times if we put our trustin Him.

This week we have beengetting some sewing done. Iwas mostly doing mending.Those rips and tears add upfast if I leave it go for severalweeks. Susan was sewing to-gether pillow tops. We wantto make pillows to fill someorders and for gifts.

Verena was working onplastic canvas-making namehangers for gifts and orders.She is getting faster at it.Daughter Elizabeth is teach-ing her and also Loretta andLovina.

Kevin wanted to try it, too,went in Elizabeths bedroomand found the piece she wasworking on. Needless to sayshe had to redo all he tried todo.

It is 3:40 a.m. and my hus-band, Joe, is waiting on hisride to the factory. DaughterElizabeth doesnt have towork today. Her factory letthe workers off since shotgunseason opens for the deerhunters today.

Elizabeth will go huntingwith Timothy and Susan willaccompany Mose. Joe willhunt tomorrow. He and theboys were target practicinglast night.

Its so hard to believe weare into the middle of No-vember already. A lot of ourleaves are still not picked up.They did burn a lot, buttheres still so many left torake. It seems when we gettime to rake, then its toowindy.

We have had a light dustingof snow and some flurries,but not enough to please theboys. Kevin, 8, was so sure

he would need his snow pantsand boots by the time hecame home from school.

Our four calves are reallygrowing. They have been be-having and staying insidetheir fenced in area. We arenttoo excited about having any-more calf chases.

This is now after 7 a.m. andfive of the children left forschool. Elizabeth left around5 a.m. to go hunting with

Kevin will sit for hourswriting. Sometimes its hisown story and sometimes itsa book he copied. He is happyif he has a writing tablet andpencil.

School mornings dontseem so rushed anymore

since everyone can get them-selves ready. Kevin needshelp to get his leg braces andshoes on, but at night he cantake them off alone. He thinksthe braces are helping him.

My friend, Barb, gave mesome gooseberries so I triedto make a gooseberry pie yes-terday. This is the recipe Iused. The pie was a little tart,so a bit more sugar could beadded. Gods blessings to allyou faithful readers.

GOOSEBERRY PIE

Buy local, give localBy Lori Panda

Ohio Proud senior program managerThis time of year evokes the tradition of spreading holiday

goodwill and cheer to all. As everyone begins holiday shop-ping and event planning, I encourage you to shop for giftsand supplies within your own community by supporting thediversity and quality of our states locally made and grown

products.When you buy local, you are supporting Ohio businesses

and farmers while keeping your hard earned dollars in the

community where you live. Every dollar spent on Ohio prod-ucts reinvests in your localeconomy and allows local

businesses to grow and hiremore local residents.

Buying locally not onlyensures that your hometowneconomy remains strong, butthat downtown shopping dis-tricts and Main Streets stayvibrant and unique. In turn,these vendors help shoppers find thoughtful, one-of-a-kindgifts for their family and friends.

There are many specialty retailers who focus on Ohiomade or grown products and gifts. If you are in an area witha limited selection, large retailers carry many of these itemsas well. From fresh food, to wine, baked goods, soaps and lo-tions; you can probably find Ohio products in every aisle ofyour favorite grocery store.

Programs like the Ohio Department of Agricultures OhioProud program are designed to alert consumers to productsthat are made, grown or processed in Ohio. Looking for OhioProud and other locally made products is a great way totackle your holiday shopping list while giving back some-thing to your local community.

Keeping studentsand schools safeWe are entering a time of year

when school kids get excitedabout Thanksgiving andChristmas vacations, and per-haps snow days after that.The education that youngpeople get is obviously veryimportant for their future de-velopment. But, we can all re-member the days when wehuddled around the radio ortelevision hoping that ourschool would be included onthe list of being closed or de-layed.

Over the course of thisyear, however, a lot of workand attention has been givento the very important issue ofmaking sure the time that kidsspend at school are safe andconducive to learning. Rightnow there are a couple billsthat directly address safetymeasures in Ohio schools.

House Bill 8 seeks to linkschools to local law enforce-ment for the purpose of craft-ing safety plans and enhancedtraining of staff. Currently,schools are allowed to desig-nate certain school personnelto have a concealed weaponin the building during schoolhours. HB 8 makes nochanges to that statute, butdoes provide protections fromliability for those individualsfrom using force to take down

a shooter in the building.House Bill 215 allows re-

tired or off-duty law enforce-

ment officers to volunteer inschools for added security.Volunteers would be limitedto about nine hours a weekand would be eligible for a$500 tax credit.

I recently had the privilegeof recognizing the girls4x200-meter relay team fromTinora High School at thestatehouse for winning thestate championship thisspring. It is always a sourceof pride to show the rest ofthe state all the great thingsthat our young students andathletes from northwest Ohiohave accomplished.

It is also especially impor-

tant as policymakers that wework toward policies that willensure that those elementary,

junior high and high schoolstudents are in an environ-ment that is safe and secure.

Finally, this is a time ofyear when we reflect on allthe things we are thankful for.I, for one, am grateful for theopportunity to serve as yourvoice in state government. Itis an honor and responsibilityI take very seriously. I wishall the families of northwestOhio a wonderful and blessedThanksgiving.

Winning the Battle for a GenerationBy Rick Jones

exec. director, DefianceArea Youth for Christ

Who do you need to ask for-giveness from?

He called himself GeneralButt Naked, and strippedhimself bare before wadinginto battle during Liberiashorrific civil war. His realname? Joshua Milton Blahyi,a man responsible for thedeaths of 20,000 people.

Repentant now, he is seek-ing forgiveness from thosewho survived his cruelty, one

by one. During the war, hismix of guerrilla warfare, tor-ture, folk magic, and evencannibalism was cruel, inde-scribable.

Because of legal difficulties,it is likely that he will never be

punished for his crimes. TheGerman magazine Der Spiegelrecounts an interview with theTruth and ReconciliationCommission in which he con-fesses to recruiting nine-year-old children for his warefforts.Then he trained these childrento be ruthless killers. Whenasked why he volunteered tocome to the commission, hesimply said, For my faith. Iwas told that I should tell the

truth, and the truth will set mefree. He is now aChristian pastor and evangel-ist who seeks out his victims,

bows to them, and begs for-giveness. He is met with a va-riety of responses, fear, anger,indifference. His story high-lights the pathos of forgive-ness.

If the man who had mur-dered your family came toyour house, groveling and

begging you to forgive him,what would go through yourmind? Only the power ofChrist could enable forgive-

ness like that.

Who do you need to ask for-giveness from? The pursuit tcatharsis, a biblical cleansingfrom sin begins with Jesuswords in John 8:32, You shallknow the truth and the trutwill set you free.

THE WOES OF A TURKEYI love Thanksgiving and

everything about it. Beingthankful to God for our bless-ings, a big turkey dinner andseeing family members is alla part of this special day.

We all know the storiesabout the first Thanksgivingand how the Pilgrims cele-

brated. In November, 1621,after the Pilgrims first cornharvest proved successful,Governor William Bradfordwanted to have a feast, so heinvited the colonists and their

Native American allies, whichincluded the Wampanoagchief, Massasoit.

The feast lasted for threedays and the food they served

was very different from whatwe eat today. There was nohuge turkey to cook, or stuff-ing, green bean casserole,mashed potatoes and gravy or

pumpkin pie with whippedcream.

In fact, Governor Bradford

sent four men on a fowlingmission in preparation for theevent. I would imagine thatmeant going hunting forgame. The Wampanoag guestsarrived bearing five deer. His-torians have suggested thatmany of the dishes were likely

prepared using traditional Na-tive American spices andcooking methods.

Some of the food that wasserved at that first Thanksgiv-ing included cod, eel, clams,lobster, wild turkey, goose,duck, crane, swan, partridge,eagles, venison and seal.There was Indian corn, pump-kin, peas, beans, onions, let-tuce, radishes, carrots and

possibly plums or grapes.Of course today we serve

the traditional turkey and allthe trimmings.

To me, cooking Thanksgiv-ing dinner is almost as fun aseating it. It took me a numberof years to fix that perfect

bird, but I never had to call theTurkey Hotline yet. Each year,Butterball hosts a hotline thatfields about 100,000 calls eachThanksgiving and Christmas.

The Butterball operators re-ceive desperate calls to theirhotline from people who areupset with the whole Turkeycooking process.

While most of their calls areprobably of the standard how

long do I cook this bird forvariety, a few really stupidquestions happen to slipthrough the phone lines. Thefollowing are actual questionsand situations the hotline re-ceived.

One caller inquired if it wasokay to thaw their turkey inthe bathtub while bathing their

kids?Another caller wanted to

know if they could brine theirturkey in the washing ma-chine?

They received a report of awoman who put a frozenturkey in the clothes dryer tothaw. The turkey thumpedaround the drum of the dryerall night.

Thats not the worst of it,though. A young mother onceshared her tale of turkey woetelling the hotline that her kidshad been playing in thekitchen while she was stuffingthe turkey.

The kids were fond ofmatchbox cars and decidedthat their toys needed a new

place to park. Many hourslater, the mother discoveredthat the kids had chosen theturkey for their new parkingspace. It isnt clear whethershe discovered the toy carsimmediately after removingthe turkey from the oven, or ifthey were revealed duringcarving.

A Kentucky woman calledthe hotline asking how to gether Chihuahua out of a turkey.It soon became apparent thatthe tiny dog had dived rightinto the carcass and couldntget back out. Pulling the dogdidnt work and neither didshaking the turkey. Finally,

she was instructed to make thehole a little bigger so that thepooch could escape.

What are you cooking forThanksgiving? Have you everhad a funny turkey experi-ence? Have you ever calledthe Turkey Hotline? Let meknow and Ill give you aPenny for Your Thoughts.

berry salad, and a favorite ofmany pumpkin pie.

Many years ago, I preparedan alternative to pumpkin piethat has become a family fa-vorite. While for many itshard to imagine Thanksgivingwithout pumpkin pie, at our

house, it wouldnt be Thanks-giving without my pumpkintorte. Whenever I serve it tosomeone for the first time, itnever fails to elicit requestsfor the recipe. If youd like totry a delicious alternative to

pie, here it is:KYLEES PUMPKIN

Crust: Combine the cakemix (less 1 cup) with one eggand 1/2 cup butter. Press intothe bottom of a greased jellyroll pan (10-1/2 x 15-1/2 x 1inch).

with the goat, he accidentallybroke one of its horns. Toatone for this, Zeus promisedto always keep the horn filledwith the goats favorite fruits,thus a horn of plenty.

The cornucopia has cometo symbolize the harvest andsince many things are har-vested in the fall, it is gener-ally associated with autumnholidays, namely Thanksgiv-ing. While we dont know forsure, its likely that the firstThanksgiving in the UnitedStates could have had a cor-nucopia decorating the Pil-grims table.

Then, it likely held sea-sonal fruits such as apples,vegetables like squash, andgrains, including corn. Today,the basket sometimes is alsodecorated with fall flowerslike mums and asters. Boththen and now, the cornucopiais a symbolic celebration ofthe earth providing nourish-ment for its inhabitants.

Though Thanksgiving hasat its heart an attitude ofgratefulness for the blessingsof the year, it is clearly a hol-iday centered around food.Across the country, meals are

prepared with typical dishesserved being roasted turkey,stuffing (or dressing), cran-

Turkey, cranberry salad,pumpkins (and pies madefrom them!) these make usthink of Thanksgiving, and sodoes a cornucopia. Im notsure my kids would know justwhat a cornucopia is, al-though I know theyve seen

it. Theyd probably just call ita basket of fruits and vegeta-

bles.What exactly is a cornu-

copia anyway? Why the un-usual name for an unusuallyshaped container of edibles?And what does it have to dowith Thanksgiving? I decidedto do a little sleuthing to findout.

The word cornucopia isan old one, dating back to the5th century B.C. It comesfrom the Latin for two words,cornu means horn andcopia means plenty. Putthem together and you havethe other common name (in

English) for a cornucopia,horn of plenty. As is usuallythe case when discovering theroot meanings of words, thisexplains why a cornucopia isfilled with a lot of vegetables,fruits, and grains, to the pointof overflowing.

The shape of the container,usually a basket, is a very dis-tinctive and recognizable ele-ment of a cornucopia. It issaid to originate in Greekmythology as the hollowedout horn of a goat owned byZeuss nurse.

EPA proposesreducing

biofuel mandateBy Mark HoltsberryEducation specialist

Paulding SWCDThe Obama Administration

Friday proposed to reduce theamount of ethanol in the na-tions fuel supply for the firsttime, acknowledging that the

biofuel law championed byboth parties in 2007 is notworking as well as expected.

While the proposal high-lights the governments strug-gle to ramp up production ofhomegrown biofuels that arecleaner-burning than gaso-line, it is unlikely to meanmuch for consumers at the

pump. The change would re-quire almost 3 billion gallonsless ethanol and other biofu-els to be blended into gaso-line in 2014 than the lawrequires.

The 2007 law tried to ad-dress global warming by al-lowing oil companies to

blend billions of gallons ofbiofuel into their gasolineeach year, but politicians whowrote the laws didnt antici-

pate the fuel economy to im-prove as much as it has in

recent years which reduceddemand for gasoline. Mean-while, next generation biofu-els made from agriculturalwaste such as wood chips andcorn cobs have not taken offas quickly as Congress re-quired and the administrationexpected.

EPA officials said theywere still committed to alter-native fuels as part of a com-

prehensive energy strategy. Ifthe EPA stuck to the volumesmandated by law, the amountof biofuel required wouldgenerate more ethanol thanmany engines can safely han-dle officials said.

The ethanol mandate cre-ated an unusual alliance be-tween oil companies, whichhave seen ethanol cut intotheir share of the gasolinemarket, and environmentalgroups that oppose plantingmore corn for fuel. Recentfindings have found thatcorn-based ethanols effect onthe environment is far worsethan the government pre-dicted or admits.

True Thanksgiving comeswithout cost or wealth

One memory very endear-ing to me is watching Kirstenchoose a book and bring it toJoyce to read to her as shecurled up in her arms on thesofa. That brings back pre-cious memories of bedtime atmy house where my mom,grandma and even dad wouldread such books (of the time)as, Jack and the Bean Stalk,Little Red Riding Hood,The Three Little Pigs and

the Dick, Jane and Sallybooks of the first grade.

Speaking of bedtime,Kirsten especially has a fancyfor asking Joyce to read sto-ries to her when her dad says,Kirsten, its time to go to

bed.Just one more story, Dad,

she says, and another and an-other and another. Its amaz-

One of the great sights of2013 occurred recently whenwe visited our granddaughter,Kirsten, right after our son

purchased a different house.When we arrived, she camerunning to the door and in-sisted on giving us a tour.

Im sure that its no sur-

prise to anyone that GrandpaLangham carries his trustedcamera with him when hevisits with Kirsten. In fact,her understanding of that wasclearly demonstrated thatnight when she took us to hernew room. She jumped on the

bed, kicking her feet as theydangled, flashed a giant smileand said, Grandpa, cheese!

If I were voting for one ofthe treasured Thanksgivingnominations of this year, thatwould be tops, if not close tothe top. Many of the others onmy list would pertain to her,and our family, such as walk-

ing on a state park trail withSandi in June, attending ahockey game with Julie,Kirsten and Jason, and watch-ing Kirsten enjoy all of thetreats brought by Aunt Julie,or attending a final game atthe old Wrigley Field withSandi, Jason and Kirsten. Oh,did I say that Kirsten figuredinto a lot of these Thanksgiv-ing memories?

ing how stalling tactics dontchange over the years. I amso thankful for the memoriesof my own childhood that are

brought back by Kirsten. Oh,did I say that Kirsten figuresinto many of my Thanksgiv-ing praises of this year?

But one of the most pre-

cious moments occurs at thetable at mealtime, whether weare in a restaurant, at home orsomewhere else where foodis about to be served. As weare about to partake of ourmeal, little Kirsten alwayssays, Grandpa, youve got to

pray, Im hungry. And sheimmediately bows her headand folds her hands, just likewe did with our children atthe table and like we didwhen I was a child at home.

Obviously, one of the mostheralded Thanksgiving appre-ciation moments is that ofChristian parents and chil-

dren, and a dad and mom thatalways prayed at mealtimeand bed time. And one of thethings my father always

prayed for was the genera-tions to come after me, likeKirsten, who he never had achance to see, but still prayedfor. Oh, did I say that Kirstenfigures into much of myThanksgiving gratefulness forthis year?
