Dear Hank,

What is House Bill 651?

House Bill 651 is a bill that hasbeen introduced into legislation byRepresentative Tim Schaffer andwould designate July as the HankKabel Sarcoma Awareness Month.The awareness month will helpbring attention to dogs andhumans alike who suffer fromsarcoma.

Sarcoma includes the group ofcancers that cause tumors to formanywhere in the body includingthe bones and in the connectivetissue. According to the AmericanCancer Society, about 13,040 newsoft tissue sarcomas will bediagnosed in 2018 andapproximately 5,150 Americansare expected to die of this cancer.Dogs are five times more likely toget sarcoma than people are, withchildren as the second-mostcommonly diagnosed.Approximately one in three dogswill be diagnosed with cancer intheir lifetime and 50 percent willdie from the disease.

When people hear of clinicaltrials in dogs they naturallyassume that they are somethingharmful but by doing clinical trialsin dogs our canines are giventreatments to help give them afighting chance against cancer aswell. People also think thatscientists are giving dogs cancer

but they get naturally occurringcancers just like humans and theyare exposed to the sameenvironmental conditions ashumans. By finding a cure for ourcompanions it will lead to a curefor children and adults as well.Since dogs are 85% geneticallylike humans and by treating dogswith cancer, veterinarians gainimportant insights into improvingtreatments for humans as well.Also, clinical trials in dogs costless money and give quickerresults than those in humans.

The Hank Kabel SarcomaAwareness Month will provideawareness to those not familiarwith canine cancer or sarcoma andwill help educate them about howdogs and people get the samekinds of cancers. If this month canbring awareness to the signs tolook for in canine cancer andsarcoma and an early diagnosiscan be made, then all of our hardwork and effort will pay off.Education is the key andknowledge is power.

According to Schaffer "This isa great piece of legislation thatbrings awareness to a disease thatimpacts humans as well as ourfour-legged friends." This will bethe first bill of its kind in theUnited States and RepresentativeTim Schaffer and his legislativeaide Misty Nichols have workedtirelessly to get this bill passed.Sarcoma advocates have beentrying to get Congress or thePresident to declare July asSarcoma Awareness Month since2007. "This is the one thing I wantbefore I die," said sarcomasurvivor Suzie Siegel of Tampa."I'm so happy Ohio will be the firststate to recognize SarcomaAwareness Month."

Hopefully House Bill 651 willpass in the upcoming weeks. Tohelp us pass this important bill,please contact Chairman MarleneAnielski's office at 1-614-644-6041.

Hoping to pass House Bill 651

Local boys angle for ancient fish

By DeAnne Beyer

When two young outdoor en-thusiasts, Weston Garey and FlintRoley, found out about the bow-fin, they were intrigued. They dis-covered the bowfin whilewatching a YouTube video, butthey didn’t think much about thepossibility of catching one sincethe video was filmed in a differentpart of the United States. Howev-er, weeks later when they learnedthat the bowfin inhabits and isnative to our area, they werehooked and were on a mission to

find and to catch the little-knownfish.

When I asked the boys whythey became fascinated with thebowfin, Weston said, “Becausethere are a lot of things that set abowfin apart from other fish inOhio. After learning that they livein our area, we learned that theyare a prehistoric fish. We alsolearned the reason they come upto the surface often is becausethey regulate their air bladder. Ialso like them because they arevery colorful.” Flint became fas-cinated with the fact that they are

prehistoric as well, and he wasalso intrigued with their appear-ance and demeanor, “Their dorsalfin is like an eel’s and it ripples.They’re also one of the most ag-gressive freshwater fish,” he said.

Weston pointed out that he hasa ‘Fish of Ohio’ poster in hisroom, but the bowfin is not shownon it. This made him and Flinteven more excited and driven tocatch one, especially since neitherof their fathers have had the expe-rience of catching one.

The boys set out with highhopes on June 14 to catch a bow-

fin. The day was idyllic, but theprevious day had been stormy,making the water muddy, and inturn, difficult to spot the elusivefish. “We were determined to notleave in defeat like the times be-fore,” said Weston. When theyfinally spotted some bowfin, withmuch excitement, they cast a lineout in the general area and trolledthe bait through the water. Finallythere was a hit on the bait andWeston set the hook and beganreeling in. The fish fought hard asWeston continued to reel. Oncethe fighting fish was at the wa-ter’s edge, Flint stepped in andnetted the fish. The boys wereecstatic to find that they had final-ly caught a bowfin. They bothexclaimed, “It was an awesometeam effort!”

The boys were thrilled to havetheir photo taken with the prizedfish before returning it back to thewater.

According to the Ohio Depart-ment of Natural Resources, bow-fin are a unique species of fish;they are the only living memberof their family. When hooked,they put up an impressive fightbut should be handled with carewhen landed because of their verysharp teeth and aggressive de-meanor.

Adult males are usually 18-24inches and 1-3 pounds, but canreach 27 inches and 5 pounds.Females are larger, usually reach-ing 24-30 inches and 3-5 pounds,but can get up to 36 inches and 12pounds. The bowfin goes by sev-eral other names including dog-fish, mudfish, grindel, andchoupique.

The bowfin feed primarily oncrayfish and injured or dead fish,but they are opportunistic feedersand will eat almost anything theycan get a hold of. They live inlarge, natural lakes and rivers, orother water systems where clearwater and abundant rooted aquat-ic vegetation are present.

Bowfin are bimodal breatherswhich means they have the abilityto breathe both water and air.Their gills exchange gases in thewater allowing them to exploitoxygen for breathing, but theyalso have a gas bladder that servesto maintain buoyancy, and alsoallows them to breathe air bymeans of a small pneumatic ductconnected from the foregut to thegas bladder. They are able tobreak the water’s surface in orderto gulp air, which allows them tosurvive conditions of aquatic hy-poxia (oxygen depletion) thatwould be deadly to most otherspecies.

Since Weston and Flint suc-ceeded in landing a bowfin, Iasked if they have any futuregoals in mind for their outdooradventures. Weston replied, “Ihope to catch a 30 inch walleyeand a 10 pound largemouth bass.I also hope to catch a larger bow-fin someday,” he added with asmile, “there’s always a biggerfish to catch.”

According to the ODNR, bowfinare often mistaken for the exoticnorthern snakehead but caneasily be distinguished by hav-ing a long dorsal fin and a short,rounded anal fin, rather thanhaving both a long dorsal andanal fin like the northern snake-head. Bowfin are native and canbe released, however if a north-ern snakehead is found it shouldnot be released - you shouldcontact your local wildlife officerabout what to do with the fish.

Everyone seems to be talkingabout yoga. Celebrities, even pro-fessional athletes, say yoga is thefountain of youth. Almost everyweek, there is an article about yo-ga in prominent periodicals --even business magazines! Fortune500 companies are offering lunch-time yoga classes. There are morethan 32,000 yoga websites.

What is it about yoga? On thesurface, yoga is a challenging, fundiscipline that keeps the body fit.It regulates internal organs andbalances the circulatory, respirato-ry, and hormonal systems. Yogaalleviates stress, aids in healingphysical injuries and illnesses, andhelps reclaim a sense of well-be-ing. Unlike the "endorphin high”experienced in Western exercise,such as circuit training, spinningclasses, and various forms of aero-bics, a sense of mastery of one’sown personal world is conceptual-ized as one practices yoga. Onecan become physically and men-tally stronger, and as the bodybecomes more flexible, one canbecome more flexible in attitude.

What does "Yoga” mean? Theword "yoga" is derived from theSanskrit word "wuj” whichmeans, "to unify." Yoga involvesseeking to "unite" your body,mind and spirit, allowing you toconnect with your inner self, lead-ing to a sense of contentment andtranquility. That said, the goal ofyoga is to harmonize your body,mind and spirit through a combi-nation of poses, meditation, andbreathing exercises.

Yoga originated in northern In-dia more than 5000 years ago.Archaeologists have found statu-ettes of men in yoga poses fromaround that time. Developed byancient sages, yoga was not writ-

ten down for thousands of years;instead it was passed down fromteacher to student. Approximately2000 years ago, a philosophernamed Patanjli began organizingand writing down the principles ofyoga into a collection known asYoga Sutras. Many people consid-er Patanjli be the father of yoga.

Anyone can practice yoga, re-gardless of age or fitness level. Ifyou have a physical limitation,you can modify yoga to meet yourneeds. People with limited mobil-ity can perform yoga while sittingin a chair. Almost everyone canfind yoga useful since it providesa wide variety of benefits. Peoplewho work in offices can performstress-relieving practices to givetheir overworked minds a break.Athletes and dancers can performstrengthening practices to restoreenergy and improve stamina.Children can practice yoga to im-prove their attention span and con-centration. Seniors can feelstronger and improve the flexibil-ity.

There are seven main types ofyoga. Although each type of yogahelps unite your body, mind andspirit, each has a slightly differentfocus. I practice Hatha Yoga,which is the yoga of physical dis-cipline. It is the most commontype of yoga in the Western world.The goal of Hatha Yoga is toachieve union of the mind, bodyand spirit through physical ac-tions. It promotes taking care ofyour body to be healthy. Yourbody may become more relaxed,and your mind may become clear-er even after just one practice.

Should one consider practicingyoga? I personally and profession-ally believe that one of the prima-ry reasons for considering yoga isthat it provides a balanced andwholesome approach to achievinggood physical, mental and emo-tional health. Yoga is easier onyour body than many other fitnessactivities, such as high-impactaerobics. Unlike many otherforms of exercise, it addresses allaspects of your health and well-being.

The peace and relaxation thatyoga offers improves mood,which in turn improves overallwell-being. One of the most rec-ognized benefits of practicing yo-

ga is stress reduction. Itencourages personal reflectionand introspection, which helps torelease any anxiety, hostility ordepression one may be feeling.Yoga poses, meditation and read-ing exercises are all clinicallyproven methods of relievingstress. One can feel more mentallyalert, centered in content. Practic-ing yoga can help relieve stress byclearing one’s mind and bringingattention to the present moment.Obviously, stress reduction canhave a positive effect on yourhealth, especially when stress is amajor contributor of many illness-es in today’s world.

Yoga serves as an effectivetool for improving mental func-tioning, such as memory enhance-ment and better concentration. Itcan also improve hand-eye coordi-nation, reaction time, dexterity,and fine motor skills. Additional-ly, yoga can improve posture,which allows you to stand, sit, andwalk with confidence.

Among the physical benefits ofyoga is pain reduction. Therapeu-tic relief from many ailments,such as back pain, arthritis, head-aches, and menstrual cramps, canbe accomplished through yoga.Many yoga poses can also release

tension and soreness in your mus-cles. The practice of yoga im-proves your breathing byincreasing awareness of breathand increasing lung capacity. Byfocusing on deep breathing, onecan help release tension from thebody and make your body morealkaline and less acidic. Too muchacidity in the body can be harmfulfor bones and tissues and can alsocause enhanced arthritis, fatigue,headaches and depression. Manyyoga poses help improve the cir-culation of blood flow whichhelps flush out toxins and impuri-ties from the body. Regular yogapractice can also help lower bloodpressure and pulse rate.

One of the most noticeable ef-fects of yoga is that it can makethe body strong and flexible,while improving the range of mo-tion in joints. This also improvesbalance, tones muscles and in-creases stamina. Some of the bestyoga poses can also help buildstrong bones, which helps preventosteoporosis.

You can do yoga alone or in agroup, in a small space utilizingthe time that you prefer, and pro-gressing at a speed and pace that’scomfortable. Anyone at any agecan do it, practically anywhere.

No fancy or expensive equipment,and you can do it forever withcontinued benefits for your health.

Yoga does not require you totwist your body like a pretzel! Iam amazed at the flexibility thatsome of my students have attainedover time. I do not have that de-gree of extreme flexibility, but Ipractice and preach yoga becauseI crave all the benefits. You do nothave to force yourself to sit inuncomfortable positions andchant, "Omm.” If our minds areactive, then maybe it is a goodidea to have active bodies. Allaspects of your life can transformjust by practicing yoga. Our class-es are open for anyone, of any age,at any level of experience. You setthe pace. We set the opportunityfor support, accountability and en-joyment. Try it out – most love it!

Beginning her career as atalented child actress, BeverlyWashburn appeared in someclassic 1950s films including“Hans Christian Andersen”(1952), “Shane” (1953) and “OldYeller” (1957) as well as dozensof classic TV shows. She alsoworked alongside Hollywood’smost popular actors and her list offavorites is long (seewww.beverlywashburn.com).

While she appeared in several“Wagon Train” episodes, herfavorite was The Tobias JonesStory where Lou Costello plays adrunk accused of murder – notonly a rare dramatic role for thecomedian but one of his finalacting appearances.

“I was a big Abbott & Costellofan, so it was a thrill to work withLou,” said Washburn from LasVegas where she has lived for over20 years. “I just loved him, he wassuch as sweet man. But he was soused to ad-libbing in the comedyroutines that he actually found ithard to stick to the script. Whenhe forgot a line, he would look intothe camera and say, ‘So how areya?’ which always made megiggle."

Washburn appeared in the 1956film version of “The LoneRanger.”

“Oh, I loved this one – I’mkidnapped by Indians and theLone Ranger comes to myrescue!” she said, laughing. “Thelocation shots were filmed inKanab, Utah, on the site that isnow an animal sanctuary calledBest Friends. Clayton Moore wasjust wonderful and one of myfunniest memories was while wewere all relaxing by the pool oneweekend. In his contract, hewasn’t allowed to bephotographed without his maskon. Well, a lady recognized him atthe pool and asked for a photo sohe jumped up and grabbed hismask. Seeing the Lone Ranger injust swimming trunks and a maskwas hilarious.”

In “The New Loretta YoungShow” 1962-63 season, Youngplayed a widow with 7 children.Washburn was a series regular asone of the kids.

“She actually called me herselfat home to ask me on the show andI was thrilled because she wassuch a sweet woman,” recalledWashburn. “It was one of those

shows where we all felt likefamily. We’d go out on weekendstogether, have parties or go to thebeach. Loretta would have us allover to her house for dinner.”

Washburn was in her early 20swhen she appeared in “SpiderBaby,” a Lon Chaney Jr. darkhorror comedy blending murder,madness, and mayhem into thenow cult classic.

“It was a very bizarre moviemade on a budget of just $65,000,”explained Washburn. “But I wasexcited to work with Lon Chaneyand he turned out to be so dear. Iremember one scene where he iscrying on the porch and those werehis real tears because he was soinvested in the role.”

Washburn, too, possessed thattalent.

“I could cry on cue which wasusually required for playing thepoor little orphan girl-type roles Ioften had. I would try to feel whatthe character was feeling and itwould invariably make me cry. Isuppose I’ve always been anemotional person, too. My brotherwould tease me and say I cried atsupermarket openings!”

More than just a young actresswho could cry on demand, herco-stars were quick to praiseyoung Beverly’s mature actingskills. After they worked together,Lou Costello publiclyacknowledged her for helpingbring out his credible dramaticperformance.

In her book, “Reel Tears: TheBeverly Washburn Story, TakeTwo” re-released in 2013 byBearManor Media, Washburn

shares many more stories from hercareer. She says she has been“blessed to work with so manywonderful people in theentertainment business.”

“It hasn’t all been roses, as Italk about in my book,” she adds,“but I have a lot of fond memoriesfor sure.”

Lancaster, Ohio – The Fair-field County Port Authority (FC-PA) has received a $50,000 grantfrom the U.S. Department of Ag-riculture (USDA) to assist localmanufacturers to cut energy costsand increase efficiencies. Thecounty will be launching its Ener-gize your Business campaign thissummer in efforts to identify hownew technology can be used tosave local businesses thousandsof dollars on heating, cooling orlighting their facilities.

The county will work with Dy-namix Energy Services to auditenergy usage of local manufactur-ers. The USDA’s Rural EnergyAssistance Program for America(REAP) grant will cover 75% ofthe cost of an energy audit withthe business required to providethe remainder. Dynamix esti-mates that the average cost for anaudit is approximately ten centsper square foot.

“We are thrilled to be able tooffer this service,” said RickSzabrak, Executive Director ofthe Fairfield County Port Author-ity. “Energize Your Business sav-ings will directly impact thebottom line of the company. Thiscan lead to reinvestment in peo-ple, property, or new programs tohelp them compete in a globalizedeconomy. It’s a small investmentthat could result in big savings.”

Any manufacturer outside ofViolet Township is eligible forthis grant. The FCPA’s goal is to

target manufacturers in fabricatedmetals and machinery since theyare high users of utilities andcould net the greatest savings. Italso ties back to the county’s goalof highlighting careers in manu-facturing for local students, withthe average manufacturing jobpaying $50,871 annually.

“We applied for this grant be-cause the average manufacturingfacility in Fairfield County wasbuilt in 1968 and likely has a needfor some upgrades,” said PatrickO’Malia, Fairfield County Eco-nomic and Workforce Develop-ment Specialist. “It is much morecost effective to keep an existingemployer than to attract a newone. This program closely alignswith the county’s business reten-tion and expansion program andis another example of why Fair-field County is a business friendlyand focused environment formanufacturers.”

Once the cost saving measuresare identified, the port authoritywill work with its partners to se-cure long-term, fixed-rate financ-ing for the manufacturers so theycan cost effectively invest in theirfacilities.

For more information on theEnergize Your Business cam-paign, or to take part in an energyaudit for a manufacturing facility,please contact Patrick O’Malia at740-652-7165 [email protected].

Renovation of StrawberriesAfter Harvest

Strawberry plants can producefruit for more than one year butprobably not for more than three orfour harvest seasons, depending onthe vigor and number of plants.June-bearing strawberries shouldbe renovated every year right afterharvest if one desires excellent fruitproduction for more than one year.Renovation refers to renewing theplanting. Renovation restores life,vigor, and growth to the planting.The renovation process must beginimmediately after harvest and mustbe completed before July 15. Thenew canopy must be sufficientlydeveloped and finished in growthby early September when flowerbuds form for June-bearingstrawberry cultivars.

Steps in renovating strawberrybeds:

*Control weeds by mechanicalmeans or a labeled weed killer.

*Remove old strawberry leaveswith a mower or a sickle. Make sureyou set the blade high to avoidinjuring plant crowns.

*Narrow the rows to 12" byusing a rotary tiller.

*Thin the plants within eachrow, leaving 4-6" between plants.

*Topdress beds with 1/2-1" ofsoil.

*Broadcast 2 1/2 lbs of 10-10-10 fertilizer per 100 sq. ft. ofplanting.

*Apply 1" of water each weekto promote growth if it does notrain.

The strawberry patch may notlook very attractive right afterrenovation. However, strawberryplants do recover beautifully andwill be much more productive.

Hosting a blood drive coin-cides with the AMVETS Auxilia-ry’s core values of giving back tothe community.

The shortamount of time it takes to donatecan mean a lifetime to a patientwith a serious medical condition.The Auxiliary urges eligible do-nors to join them in the selflessact of giving blood.

Donors of all blood types areneeded, especially those withtypes O negative, B negative andA negative. According to the RedCross, type 0 negative is the uni-versal blood type that can be safe-ly transferred to anyone and isoften used to treat trauma patients.

By DeAnne Beyer

When the overhead garagedoor failed to open upon ourreturn home during a storm, myhusband said, “Either the bat-tery in the garage door opener isdead or the power is out.” As itturned out, the battery was fine.

I wouldn’t have minded theoutage in any other weather, butit was raining hard outside so Ihad to find something inside todo. I looked around my officeand noticed the bills that neededpaid. I’ll go online and paythose, I thought, but it occurredto me that I couldn’t withoutpower to the computer. I lookedat the stack of papers on thefloor beside the shredder andthought, Aha! I will shred those,but it immediately dawned onme that I couldn’t without elec-tricity. Next, I remembered thatI had been wanting to researchsome items that I was thinkingof purchasing, but as I started tosit down in front of the comput-er, it hit me once again thatthere was no power.

I stood in amazement that Icouldn’t immediately think ofanything I could accomplish in-doors without electricity or run-ning water (a well pumpwithout power is useless tomake water flow from the fau-cet).

This is ridiculous, I thoughtto myself, I am one who enjoysprimitive camping – I can func-tion just fine without toilets thatflush or the convenience of re-frigeration. I can even makethree gallons of water last forthree days in the great out-doors! But this was different;this was the great indoors.

Suddenly I realized: Dust! Ican dust! So I grabbed the boxof dusting cloths and got busydusting. It was an all-out frenzyas I dusted tables and shelvesand lamp bases and high andlow places. I crawled aroundthe entire inside of the house,

dusting the wooden baseboard.I dusted mirrors and dressersand doors and chairs. As I dust-ed, I thought of how nice it wasto not have a host of distrac-tions. There was no noise froma television or radio, no tempta-tions from technology, not eventhe hum of appliances – nothingto assault my ears – just beauti-ful silence. My mind was fo-cused and there was only onething to do and that was to dustand so I dusted until the box ofdusting cloths was empty.

It was then that I noticed thatthe rain had subsided, so I askedmy husband to light the grill soI could cook supper. I hastilyopened the refrigerator doorand grabbed some hot dogs andshut the door quickly to keepthe cool air inside. I got out thehand-crank can opener andopened a can of beans for ourfeast in the fading daylight.

Sometime around 9 p.m. thepower was restored. Shortlythereafter my husband switchedon the TV and I turned on thecomputer. The brief reprievewas over.
