Womans charges dropped for help in attempted murder case
Mary Jennings gets
deal in exchange for
testimony in stabbing
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT A Garnett man
charged in a bizarre lovers triangle attempted murder in July
2020 will have a Zoom hearing
January 12 to discuss his competency to stand trial, after the
Garnett woman involved in the
affair agreed to testify against
him.
Legal counsel for Maxwell
Williams told the court at a
preliminary hearing in late
October it was questionable
whether Williams was competent to stand trial in the July
incident, in which he allegedly hid in a bedroom of Mary
Jennings Garnett home and
ambushed William Hopkins of
Williamsburg when he entered
the room.
Hopkins showed up in the
Anderson County Hospital
emergency room the evening of
July 24 with multiple slash and
stab wounds and other lacerations, and was at first reluctant
to cooperate
with investigating officers called by
hospital staff.
He eventually conveyed
to
officers
the incident
he said transJennings
pired which
resulted in
the arrests of Jennings and
Williams.
Anderson County Attorney
Brandon Jones told the Review
charges against Jennings had
been dismissed in view of her
cooperation in the case against
Williams.
Jennings told investigating
officers Williams came to her
home earlier that Friday, July
24, and that the two had sexual relations before Hopkins
arrived. She at first told
Hopkins was the aggressor and
had showed up at her home
that day and threatened her
with a knife, and that he was
injured in a subsequent struggle with Williams. A probable
cause affidavit in her
arrest says
she became
upset after
having been
taken into
custody and
changed her
story, denyWilliams
ing knowing
Williams had
a knife as he laid in wait in the
bedroom and that she thought
Williams only intended to witness Hopkins threatening her
and possibly beat him up.
Hopkins told investigating
officers he and Jennings had
filmed themselves having sex
the day before the incident and
had sent a copy to Williams,
who also previously had a relationship with Jennings. The
following day Hopkins said he
contacted Williams and told
him Jennings was distraught

Kansas slowest in vaccine distribution
Governors plan for
distribution of vaccine puts
prison inmates upfront
BY DANEBRI HERBERT
THE SENTINEL
TOPEKA Kansas ranks dead last
among states and U.S. provinces in
COVID vaccine distribution, according to a running tally collected by
Bloomberg News, although a reporting time lag may be a contributing
factor.
Kansas last updated numbers on
December 23 but some states have
updated as recently as December 29.
In its first allotment of Pfizer and
Moderna vaccines, the state received
164,900 doses. Of that, the state
reported administering 3,000 doses
through Dec. 23. According to the
Bloomberg map below, only 0.1% of
the Kansas population has been vaccinated so far with 3,000 vaccinations
distributed; Mississippi is the next
lowest at 0.15%.
These numbers are truly disappointing, said House Majority
Leader Dan Hawkins, a Wichita
Republican. Its a shame the Kelly
administration seems more focused
on providing the vaccine to prisoners and elected officials instead of
vulnerable Kansans who are desperately seeking a return to normalcy.
West Virginia leads the nation in
the percentage of population vaccinated. West Virginia reports administering the vaccine to 1.9% of its
population, or 34,474 people, as of
Dec. 29.
Kansas is one of 20 states that
have yet to publish statewide vaccine distribution totals.
We hope to have that soon.
Were working on getting everyone fully trained on reporting. We
are currently exploring options to
best convey vaccine administration in Kansas. We hope to have
updates on this in the near future,
Kristi Zears, spokesperson for the
Kansas Department of Health and
Environment, told KMBC 9 News
last week.
Bloomberg uses data from city and
county sites as well as press releases
and press conferences to tabulate
for its running tally. According to
Bloombergs tabulation, 2.23 million
people in the U.S. have received the
vaccine as of Dec. 29. U.S. officials
plan to provide first inoculations
to 20 million people by the end of
January.
The U.S. administered the first
doses on Dec. 14, and Kansas administered its first doses to healthcare
workers a few days later.
According to Bloombergs analysis, West Virginia leads the nation in
the percentage of population vaccinated. West Virginia reports administering the vaccine to 1.9% of its
population, or 34,474 people, as of
Dec. 29. Meanwhile, Kansas reports
inoculating .1% of its population, or
3,000 people, as of Dec. 23.
State governments set priorities of
which populations receive vaccines
first. The Kansas Vaccine Plan, a
living document drafted in October,
prioritizes vaccinating healthcare
personnel, frontline workers like
EMTs, and long-term care facility
residents and staff in the first phase
of distribution.
Through this framework, my
administration upholds our commitment to maximizing benefits, minimizing harm, and striving for equity,
justice and fairness when it comes to
when the vaccine will be made available to which Kansans, Kelly said
of the phased plan to distribute the
vaccine.
On Wednesday, she told the
Topeka Capital-Journal that prison inmates will receive the vaccine
before it is made available to the
general public.
We do know that congregate
living centers are hotspots, whether you talk about prisons, you talk
about nursing homes. The only way
ultimately to rid those kinds of facilities of the virus is for the vaccination
to come, she said. It makes all
sorts of sense for us to include all
congregate settings in the first line
of vaccines.
The Kansas Department of Health
and Environment reports 40 clusters of COVID infection in Kansas
corrections facilities. The clusters
include 6,132 cases and 62 deaths.
KDHE reports 542 clusters in Kansas
nursing homes accounting for 11,086
COVID cases and 883 deaths.
Road back to
nursing home
visits probably
still months away,
experts say
BY CELIA LLOPIS-JPESEN
THE KANSAS NEWS SERVICE
KANSAS CITY Kansas pharmacies
preparing for the massive effort to
vaccinate people against COVID-19
are looking for more pharmacists and
pharmacy technicians.
COVID-19 poses such dire risks to
older people in nursing homes that
even vaccines wont guarantee a quick
end to their pandemic isolation.
Tens of thousands of workers and
residents at Kansas long-term care
facilities will get vaccinated over the
next three months. But families aching
to visit after such a long separation
may not have easy access to their loved
ones for several more months at least.
We will not be clicking our fingers
and returning to normal, said William
Hanage, a professor of epidemiology at
Harvard University. There is not a
silver bullet.
Even for young people, the new
vaccines dont offer a 100% guarantee
against contracting coronavirus. And
the shots may be less effective for older
people.
That means nursing homes still
need to be cautious by insisting workers and others who enter their buildings continue to don masks and diligently screen any visitors for the virus
or possible signs of it.
As the broader public gets vaccinated and community transmission slows,
that will lower the risks that even
asymptomatic family members can
unwittingly pose. Reaching that point
will take several months, at least.
Giving shots to tens of thousands of
Kansans as fast as possible is a massive
undertaking that comes when health
care workers already find themselves
battling exhaustion.

(Ref: Matthew 26:26-29, 1
Corinthians 11:23-29)
Pastor Chase Riebel gave
the sermon Remember, But
Dont Look Back. 2020 has
been a year filled with fear,
chaos, corruption and confusion, immigration caravans, a
pandemic, racial tension, rioting, election fraud and division. Thats a whole lot to deal
with, but the Bible tells us to
Walk by Faith, not by Sight.
We must keep our focus on
Jesus to keep our heads about
the waves in 2021.
God sent angels into Sodom
and Gomorrah to rescue Lot
and his family. His wife ended
up turning back to look and
was turned into a pillar of salt.
There are 4 lessons we can
learn from Lot and his wife.
1. Remember your identity. 2.
Sound the Warning. 3. Dont
hesitate to flee. 4. Dont look
back. Lot went from being a
shepherd to a city official. He
integrated himself into Sodom
society. He turned a blind eye
to the sins of the city. When
we see sin, we need to warn
others about it, so they can
turn from their ways. And
we must not hesitate to flee
from immorality ourselves.
Lot knew Gods righteous
standards, and when he tried
to warn his future sons in
law to leave the city, they
refused. Obedience is crucial.
We must not look back at our
sin with longing. Lets look
forward to what God has in
store for us in 2021, and plan
for his will to be done. Hear

OPINION
Kelly puts murderers ahead of you
Governor Kelly wants to make sure the Carr
brothers of Wichita Massacre fame get the
Covid vaccine before you.
You remember the Carr brothers; Dodge
Citys dubious export from back in 2000 that
terrorized Wichita over a handful of days that
December, culminating in the rape, sexual
abuse, robbery and execution-style murder of
four young adults on a Wichita soccer field and
the miraculous survival of a young woman who
later identified them.
El Dorado death row inmates Reginald and
Jonathan Carr, according to Governor Laura
Kellys vaccine distribution directives, will
have the chance to get the Covid-19 vaccine
before most of the people who pay the taxes that
have funded the court and prison systems that
have babysat the duo for two decades. Kelly
opted to include prisoners along with other
congregate facilities as a priority for distribution and announced it at a press conference
just before Christmas.
So, all you 25-80 year-old members of the Kansas
tax paying, law abiding public if you were
planning to rush right out and get the vaccine
as soon as you possibly could, you might as well
get comWant the vaccine? Bring a fortable.

a colorful one. Each has a story that guided
him through the overburdened and expensive
Kansas court system and into the overburdened and expensive Kansas penal system
youre paying for. A few cases in point:
Theres 37 year-old Cornelius Oliver in prison at Hutchinson. The 1999 Wichita South High
School graduate was out of school just over a
year in 2000 when he killed three friends while
they played video games at a Wichita apartment, then killed his girlfriend as she cowered
on the floor of her bedroom clutching a pillow.
Cornelius hopes to meet a mature, goal-oriented woman to share stimulating conversation,
mutually encouraging words, and ideas on
personal growth with, according to his online
prison pen pal profile.
REVIEW COMMENTARY
DANE HICKS, Publisher
He gets the shot ahead of you.
Then theres Kyle Flack, the scumbag who
killed three adults and a toddler near Ottawa
back in 2013 after an attempted murder conviction in 2005. He shot all his victims in the back.
The death row inmate once wrote hed like to
dye in a suitcase.
He gets the vaccine before you, too.
So does Scott Cheever, the Greenwood
County meth cook who killed Sheriff Matt
Samuels in 2005 and shot four other deputies.
Dont forget Gary Kleypas, who raped and murdered a 78 year-old woman in Missouri before
killing a 20 year-old female student at Pittsburg
State University. Or Justin Thurber, who tortured, raped and murdered a 19 year-old dance
team member from Cowley Community College
in Arkansas City. Theyll all be ahead of you in
line for the vaccine based on Governor Kellys
pledge to follow the science.
Of course the science has pretty clearly
shown age is the primary vector of the virus.
If youre young youre at little risk. But of 2,879
COVID deaths reported in Kansas, 2,466 (85.7%)
have been people age 65 and older with 1,108
of those (38.5%) age 85 and older. Its clear the
Kansas elderly no matter where they are or
what profession theyre in should be first in
line followed by medical workers, emergency
personnel, prison guards, etc.
But in the tragic comedy that is the Laura
Kelly administration, structures and models,
bogus statistics and blanket mandates trump
science. Your needs? Well, they can wait. Get
yourself some comfortable shoes and get in
line. ###

The shameful attack on history in our schools
The coronavirus pandemic has disrupted pretty much everything about our lives.
Thats especially and devastatingly true for
the education of Americas students.
Too many young students today are falling
behind during their formative years of learning either due to unevenly applied or generally ineffective hybrid learning models, or due
to their schools being closed altogether.
Parents are also increasingly more aware
of what their
students are
or are not
learning.
And theyre
not
happy
with
what
theyre seeing.
This pandemic
has
laid bare a
number of things about American education,
not the least of which is that its not entirely
American; in too many places, students are
taught outright anti-American material.
Look no further than the infamous 1619
Project launched by The New York Times. Its
a debunked reframing of history.
The 1619 Project contends that because of
slavery, Americas founding ideals of liberty
and equality were false when they were written. It also states that nearly everything
about our country sprang forth from racism,
and that our Founding Fathers and other
early Americans in the colonies fought the
Revolutionary War to protect the institution
Parents know that the
idea at the center of
our national narrative
is freedom. And theyre
demanding more of it.

BETSY DEVOS U.S. EDUCATION SECRETARY
of slavery.
These insidious lies and more have been
exposed and refuted by many scholars, including one of the projects own fact-checkers. Yet
too many children across America are already
being indoctrinated. More than 4,500 schools
use the Project 1619 curricula, according to the
project.
From the beginning, this historical revisionist campaign was intent on infiltrating Americas schools and infecting young
American minds. It was easier to do because
so few students were learning history or civics
as they should.
Appallingly, more than half of high school
seniors, according to the Nations Report
Card, have a below basic knowledge of our
history. In the real world, that means our rising generation doesnt know what the LincolnDouglas debates were about; nor could many
of them describe who those men were nor the
significance of that time in our nations history.
Parents are demanding better. A Braun
Research poll conducted over the summer
found that half of parents dont want their
children using material that offers the idea
that slavery is the center of our national narrative.
Parents know that the idea at the center of
our national narrative is freedom. And theyre
demanding more of it. Parents today are more
aware today of the bad civics and American
history education their children are receiving.
The 1776 Commission, which President
Trump launched recently, will help focus the
national conversation on the great American
story and the importance of ensuring the rising generation understands the values of our
founding, the contents of our Constitution and
the critical need to be engaged citizens.
Instruction that misconstrues American
history or outright lies about it is not instruction at all. Worse still when its the only option
for too many families. That underscores the
massive unmet demand for more education
options.
This Trump Administration strongly supports the bipartisan School Choice Now Act,
which would directly fund families and allow
them to choose the best educational setting for
their child.
In fact, a majority in the U.S. Senate already
voted in favor of that provision. It must be part
of any future legislation to help all students
continue learning.

Give Amazon its due in the delivery revolution
Its been a terrible year for the American
worker, with a notable bright spot courtesy of
one of the tech firms in the crosshairs of regulators and lawmakers.
If someone had said early in 2020, A company is going to hire hundreds of thousands
of non-college-educated workers during the
pandemic at well above the minimum wage,
youd think thered be huzzahs all around.
Thats what the online retailer Amazon has
done, but it still gets brickbats for how it
pays and treats its workers. Rep. Alexandria
Ocasio-Cortez said the other day that Amazon
jobs are a scam.
If so, a swath of the American workforce
is falling for the grift. Since July, the online
retailer has hired 350,000 workers, and now
employs 1.2 million people globally. This is a
historic hiring binge. According to The New
York Times, the closest comparisons are
the hiring that entire industries carried out
in wartime, such as shipbuilding during the
early years of World War II.
On top of this, the company provides work
for roughly half a million truck drivers.
It overwhelmingly hires high school graduates. It doesnt ask for a resume, gives its
workers about a day of training, and then puts
them on the job in its fulfillment centers.
The difficulty of the work shouldnt be
underestimated — it is taxing, repetitive and
highly regimented. Yet, weve long complained
about losing assembly line jobs for non-college-educated workers. Amazon is hiring peo-
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
ple for what is the 21st-century equivalent of
such jobs.
Amazon began paying its workers $15 an
hour in 2018. If that rate rings a bell, its the
number for the federal minimum wage that
Sen. Bernie Sanders and AOC have long been
lobbying for, to little effect (it remains $7.25 an
hour).
Its hard to review what Amazon has done
over the last year and consider it the work
of a corporate monster. The company had an
unlimited unpaid time off policy for its workers when the pandemic began.
It hired temporary workers to replace them
and deal with the surge of business, then kept
most of them on and began hiring on top of
that.
Its been offering signing bonuses of up
to $3,000, and hiring in places in the country
where no one else is.
According to the research of Michael
Mandel at the center-left Progressive Policy
Institute, Amazon fulfillment center jobs pay
31% more than retail jobs at brick-and-mortar
stores, where pay has basically been stagnant
for three decades.
Mandel points out that its wrong to simplistically think of Amazon and other e-commerce outfits as replacing brick-and-mortar
stores.
What they are really replacing is the labor
that consumers undertake on their own to
shop for goods — driving to a store, walking
up and down the aisles, making the selection,
loading it, and taking it home. Someone making a purchase through Amazon essentially
hires a network of workers to do all of that for
him.
What Amazon, and e-commerce more
broadly, is doing is selling goods to consumers at low prices, while giving them more
convenience than ever before (rapid delivery
to their doorsteps, with the possibility of easy
returns) and creating new jobs in the process.
By all means, jawbone the company to treat
workers better, but dont lose sight of the scale
of its achievement — and how many Americans
are employed because of it.

doctors and hospitals were reluctant to use it,

LOCAL
VISITS…
Legislative Priorities
Greg Doering, Kansas Farm
Bureau
With the new year upon us,
attention will soon turn to the
legislative session beginning
Jan. 11 in Topeka. Im incredibly grateful for the elected
officials we have. Legislative
sessions are always about making tough choices on allocating
resources that are too few to
address problems that appear
unending. This upcoming one
is set to be one of the toughest.
One reason is because were
just beginning to emerge from
the pandemic thats upended
life as we once knew it. The
continued need for social distancing will severely limit
floor passes, building access
and other interactions legislators have with the public in the
Capitol.
Technology will allow the
public and lobbyists to participate in the process of drafting
laws, but we know its just a
stopgap measure. The business
of the state will still get done,
but there might be a few more
bumps in the road. Thats why
its more important than ever
to open a dialogue with your
Kansas representative and senator.
In addition to access in
the Capitol, there will likely
be fewer legislative coffees,
forums and other chances to
interact with our leaders until
theres widespread inoculation. Sending emails, making
phone calls and writing letters
will be the only reliable way to
ensure your voice is heard on
the subjects that matter to you.
At Kansas Farm Bureau
(KFB) we have three priorities
in this years session: broadband, taxes and water. Our
advocacy staff will still weigh
in on any proposed legislation
important to our members, but
those are the big three this session.
Access to a vibrant, highspeed broadband network is
essential to the future of both
rural and urban Kansas. One
of the few bright spots of the
pandemic has been the ability for a significant portion of
our population to work wherever theres adequate signal.
Moving forward, broadband
will provide new opportunities
for the delivery of health care,
education,
entertainment,
business development and
enhance the capabilities of precision agriculture.
Of course, deploying broadband access to every Kansan
will take time and money,
which is why taxes make
our list. The states tax coffers arent quiet as full as they
otherwise would be because of
the pandemic. After digging
through the couch cushions,
legislators might get the idea
to start tinkering with the tax
code to fill in the gaps.
Such changes are always
fraught and with the public
dents.
FROM PAGE 1
limited in how it can interact with legislators, this session is especially prone to any
tinkering having unintended consequences. KFB will
continue to advocate for the
use-value system in place now
that accurately and appropriately values agricultural
lands. Agricultural operations
are businesses and sales tax
exemptions are necessary to
continue fair and equal tax
treatment for business-related
purchases.
Finally, KFB will continue
its support for the basic tenets
of Kansas water law. Knowing,
understanding and implementing these principles provide
our members the ability to
plan, invest and defend their
private property rights for one
of the states most valuable
resources.
I know these arent the
only issues legislators will
face in the upcoming session,
but theyre vitally important
for all Kansans. I thank all of
our elected officials for their
service and wish them well in
the endeavor they will soon
embark on.
"Insight" is a weekly column
published by Kansas Farm
Bureau, the state's largest farm
organization whose mission is
to strengthen agriculture and
the lives of Kansans through
advocacy, education and service.
But they say this feels like a
new phase in a fight they can
win.
Lindsborg
Community
Hospital in central Kansas put
its first doses of COVID-19 vaccine into a container labeled
Box of Hope.
CVS Health and Walgreens
will help carry out a federal
initiative to get the sometimes
logistically tricky job of moving
temperature-sensitive vaccines
to nursing and housing facilities that predominantly serve
people over the age of 65.
CVS pharmacy teams start
fanning out on Monday, and
must make three trips to each of
the 360 sites theyll visit. (People
need two doses administered
three or four weeks apart,
depending on which brand of
vaccine they get.) By the end
of three months, theyll have
vaccinated up to 40,000 people.
Kansas has seen more than
500 outbreaks of the virus in
long-term care since the pandemic began. Those clusters
at least two cases each, but
sometimes infecting dozens of
patients and workers at a single
facility have killed nearly
1,000 people.
That makes such outbreaks
the single biggest source of pandemic-related deaths in Kansas,
where nearly 2,500 people have
died since March.
When the virus surged
across Kansas this fall, it found
its way into even very rural
facilities. Now, most Kansas
nursing homes have had cases
of COVID-19 among their resi-
The rollout to the
wider community
Pharmacies have been
preparing for weeks even
months for the massive vaccination effort. And still, they
need all the hands they can get.
More pharmacists. More
pharmacy technicians.
Just taking care of nursing
homes involves a lot of skilled
workers spending many hours
on the road and in the field.
Once
community-wide
immunization starts, perhaps
this spring, pharmacists foresee huge demand.
CVS Health has been ramping up to administer as many
as 25 million shots per month
at about 10,000 pharmacies
nationwide.
Each state sets priorities
for vaccination within their
boundaries until supplies
become widely available. (You
can read the Kansas plan here,
and find weekly updates on
progress here.)
Kansas kicked off its vaccine rollout with those most at
risk of contracting the disease,
such as health care workers
who face COVID-19 exposure on
the job.
The pharmacists who will
give shots at nursing homes
hope to get vaccinated themselves soon. To enter long-term
care facilities, they will undergo regular COVID-19 testing
and wear protective gear.
Other essential workers and
people with medical conditions
that put them at higher risk
for severe COVID-19 also rank
high on the states priority for
vaccine access until supplies
increase enough to accommodate the wider public.
Vaccine background
The U.S. Food and Drug
Administration has OKd two
vaccines so far for emergency
use.
It greenlighted Pfizers version on Dec. 11 and gave the
go-ahead for Modernas on Dec.
18.
Kansas got nearly 24,000
doses of the Pfizer version within days. By the end of a week,
vaccination had gotten underway in all but a handful of the
states 105 counties.
Gov. Laura Kelly says nearly 50,000 doses of the Moderna
product should arrive this
week.
Unlike Pfizers version,
which requires extra-cold temperatures that make transportation and storage more difficult, Modernas holds up in
normal freezers that the average doctors office or pharmacy
would have on hand.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, January 5, 2021
Researchers continue to make progress 10 tips to support
on reducing food allergy reactions
small businesses
MANHATTAN, Kan. Kansas
State University nutrition specialist Sandy Procter says that
while the number of severe
cases related to food allergens
are on the rise, researchers
continue looking for ways to
prevent future allergic reactions.
Speaking recently on the
K-State Research and Extension
radio program, Sound Living,
Procter said many food allergies today go well beyond three
of the most common culprits
of the past seafood, milk and
nuts.
We know now that it is a
wider band of foods that are
causing allergic reactions,
she said. Those three have
not gone away, but were seeing reactions to other foods, as
well.
Eggs, sesame, wheat and
some fruits and vegetables are
among many more foods that
dietitians, nutritionists and
others now list as potential
allergens. Procter, who at one
time in her career wrote menus
for childcare lunch programs,
said we were very careful to
note foods that contained (suspected allergens) and let people
know.
We knew that if there were
children in the care center with
known allergies, those foods
were very quick to be removed
from the menu. Some of these
food reactions are not caused
just by contact or ingestion, but
can be transmitted through the
air.
School food service person-
nel, she added, receive training
so that they are implementing
practices that protect children
with food allergies. The U.S.
government requires that food
labels contain information on
ingredients most often suspected of causing allergic reactions,
such as tree nuts and more.
Some foods can be really
deceptive in terms of the ingredients contained in them,
Procter said. It is really
important that those top allergen foods appear on the label to
help families and individuals.
Procter said recent research
is helping to reduce some risks.
One in particular called the
LEAP study involved clinical trials to determine the best
strategy to prevent a peanut
allergy in young children.
For years, there has been
real concern about peanut
allergies and its something
that has gone from one extreme
to the other, Procter said. In
the past, we thought if these
children have a likelihood to
have an allergy to peanuts,
maybe the mother should avoid
eating peanuts during pregnancy, or maybe peanuts shouldnt
be introduced to a child at all.
The LEAP study, she added,
changed that way of thinking.
The study determined an
80% reduction in peanut allergy for five year old children
who regularly ate peanuts
since the year they were born,
Procter said.
Its thought that babies may
have the capacity to expand
what their body tolerates as
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 1-5-2021 / KSU RESEARCH & EXTENSION
The number of foods that may cause allergic reactions has been
increasing, but researchers are making progress in understanding
ways to prevent food allergies in humans.
they move from a milk-based
diet to solid foods. This is a
strategic time for that capacity
to grow, Procter said.
What theyve introduced
is a very dilute peanut source
mixed in to regular food that is
an appropriate texture for that
baby, Procter said, such as
powdered peanut butter mixed
in with baby food.
The study has gained credibility, she said. It has led
to experts in the United States
reversing their recommendation of holding off on the introduction of peanuts, to now saying it is probably okay with
care and discussion with your
health care provider to introduce peanuts to kids who dont
have a family history of peanut
allergies, rather than putting it
off until later.
Procter emphasized the
importance of consulting with
a medical professional before
implementing results of this
or any other studies related to
food allergies.
It is comforting for families, caregivers and the public to know that researchers
are now starting to determine
they have some understanding of the noted increases in
food allergies, as well as ways
that more people suffering may
either be able to prevent allergies or deal with them safely,
she said.
More information about food
allergies is available online
from Food Allergy Research
and Education.
More information about
health and nutrition is available from local extension
offices in Kansas, as well as

gifts, so if you need to send a little love to a loved one, wrap up
a gift certificate in a beautiful
card and feel good about your
present choice.
Leave reviews: Online
reviews can make a big difference for small businesses in
expanding clientele. Go online
and leave rave reviews for your
favorite stores and why others
should support them as well to
help spread the word.
Be vocal: In addition to
online reviews, talk up your
favorite small businesses
among friends. From independent restaurants to local service providers, use your voice
as a powerful tool to build their
reputation and support growth.
Partnerships: Look for
small businesses who partner
together to offer products or
services that complement each
other in packages, such as a
gift basket bundle featuring
your favorite local treats. You'll
support multiple businesses at
once and often get a discount
compared to buying separately.
Double up: For businesses
like independent coffee shops
or bakeries, consider a larger order. For example, go with
that grande latte and order two
dozen cookies to share with
your neighbors.
Be patient: Small businesses are dealing with a multitude
of challenges these days, from
supply chain holdups to sluggish shipping and beyond. Your
kindness is valued and your
patience is crucial during these
times.

(BPT) – The COVID-19 pandemic has been difficult on small
businesses. Whether it's a local
eatery, service provider, retail
store or another type of business, when you shop small,
you're supporting a real person who is striving to keep his
or her entrepreneurial dream
alive.
You can personally help
make a difference by considering 10 simple ways to support
small businesses:
Shop now: No need to wait
for a sale or special event. By
shopping now you're putting
much-needed funds into a small
business that is depending on
income each month to make
ends meet and keep doors open.
Reverse shopping: Rather
than thinking of the recipient
and then where to shop for a
gift, think of the shop first and
then the recipients that would
most like items from that particular business.
Go online: For small businesses that offer e-commerce
options, be sure to consider
online orders that ship directly
to your home. This is a safe and
convenient way to support your
favorite businesses.
Shop in person: For businesses with physical locations,
visit shops in person if you can
use proper safety measures. If
you know what you want, many
businesses let you order ahead
and opt for curbside or doorway pickup as well.
Consider gift cards: Not
sure what to buy? Gift cards are
always one of the most desired

Top 10 most common New Year's Resolutions (and how to follow through on them)
by Brad Zomick
Every year, millions of people make New Years resolutions, hoping to spark positive
change. The recurring themes
each year include a more active
approach to health and fitness,
improved finances, and learning new things for personal
and professional development.
Chances are, more than a couple of the top 10 most common
resolutions will look familiar
to you:
Exercise more
Lose weight
Get organized
Learn a new skill or hobby
Live life to the fullest
Save more money / spend
less money
Quit smoking
Spend more time with family and friends
Travel more

Making your New Year's
resolutions happen
Despite the best of intentions, once the glow of a fresh
new year wears off, many people struggle to make good on
their plans. According to a
study published in the Journal
of Clinical Psychology, only
46% of people who made New
Years resolutions were successful. That means over half
of the people who set a goal for
the new year will fail!
The study also involved
non-resolvers, people who did
not make a New Years resolution, but had a goal they wanted to achieve that year. Only
4% of non-resolvers were successful at achieving their goals,
a far bleaker result than those
who did make a New Years
resolution.
Naturally, we dont want to
be in the camp of folks that
fail to achieve their aspirations
and dreams for 2021, so weve
put together an exhaustive
plan for following through on
your resolution.
If you want to realize your
New Years resolution this
year, follow these 10 steps:
1. Mentally prepare
for change
Changing ingrained habits
is no easy task, so before diving
head-first into your New Year
goals, it is important to take a
step back and get ready for that
impending change.
The first breakthrough in
change is taking a personal
inventory. Being that its the
end of one year and the beginning of the next; its perfect
timing to take stock in the past
years accomplishments.
Naturally, your resolution
may focus on areas that lack
progress, but dont forget to
savor the progress made, and
find some small way to celebrate. Those happy feelings
are useful! If possible, try to
associate them with an object
or word related to your accomplishment.
You will want to keep upbeat
with your new resolution, so
you can use that positive association with last years accomplishments to remind you of
those good feelings when you
are feeling challenged.
As you start thinking about
the changes you want to implement, make sure to do the
following: Stay positive, try
not to make big/quick changes, change should be gradual,
build on smaller changes and
allow a little room for error.
2. Set a goal that
motivates you
You would be surprised how
often people set goals that are
not for themselves.
To do this, you need to make
sure the goal you set is important to you and only you and
that there is value or benefit
for you in achieving the goal.
It is these two things that will
provide the reason and willingness to take action. This is also
known as motivation!
Thus, its a safe bet if your
resolutions align with the following: Your goals, priorities,
dreams and aspirations.
3. Limit resolutions to a
manageable amount
A common mistake in resolution setting is having too
many and spreading yourself
too thin. We all want to learn
25 different languages, 15 new
job skills, and eliminate 5 bad
habits, but we are not superheroes. We only have so much
attention span we can dedicate
to self-improvement, so having
too many resolutions is a great
way not to achieve the many
goals you have set out for yourself.
Thus, you should make a
short list of resolutions that
you can manage in the upcoming year. Knowing that short
list of priorities is the hard
part. The key here is understanding how to prioritize.
The final piece of the puzzle
here is knowing your limitations and personal bandwidth.
With that in mind, you should
focus on your top priorities
while balancing how much
attention you can honestly
devote to a resolution.
Final thought: Its better to
tackle one resolution well than
multiple resolutions poorly.
4. Be specific
When it comes to setting resolutions, its easy to set bad
goals that could lead to poor
follow through. Fortunately,
SMART goal setting framework can help you craft better
goals.
SMART goals are:
Specific – Articulate the resolution as clearly as possible.
For example, quitting smoking
is better than being healthy.
While being healthy is great,
the wording can be interpreted
in many ways.
Measurable – Quantify your
resolution if possible, i.e. I will
lose 10% of my body weight.
Attainable – Choose a goal
within the realm of possibility, but yet challenging. Making
100 friends this year would be
amazing, but probably pretty
hard to do. On the other, making 10 new friends is doable.
Relevant – Keep it relevant
to your priorities and goals.
See motivation section above!
Time-sensitive – Give yourself a time-frame in which to
achieve a goal. A deadline will
instill some urgency and provide a time when you can celebrate your success.
5. Break up big goals into
smaller goals
A lot of us tend to be over
eager and grandiose when it
comes to resolutions. We have
the best of intentions and may
accidentally take on a goal that
is too big to achieve. Thus, its
helpful to divide a big goal into
smaller goals that are more
achievable.
6. Write down your goals
While its great to have
goals, it is critical to document
them in some way. Here are
six reasons to write down your
goals:
They are easy to forget.
While that may seem silly, we
are human, and it is human to
be easily distracted and forgetful.
Writing down your resolutions helps you clarify what it
is you want to achieve. It forces
you to make decisions and be
precise with your words.
Writing establishes intention, but action needs to be
taken to achieve your resolution. Having a written account
of your goals is a constant
reminder to take action.
7. Share your resolutions
with others
If a tree falls in a forest and
no one is around to hear it,
does it make a sound?
Its great to make a resolution for yourself and maybe
even write it down, but if no
one else knows about it, its
easy to forget about or even
ignore. And when you dont
achieve it, no one will notice or
care.
On the flip side, your counterparts who decided to tell
someone about their goal,
feel something different. Now
that theyve gone public with
their goal, they feel a sense of
obligation and accountability.
Essentially, if you dont follow
through, they are going to let
everyone down.
Crazy as it sounds, this
sense of guilt is often more
powerful than self-motivation.
The upshot here is that when
you do succeed, the people you
shared with will celebrate with
you!
8. Automate where possible
A stitch in time saves nine.
The good news is you probably have technology in your
pocket that can help you follow through on your resolution
– automation in the form of
reminder apps.
Nowadays there are a million different apps and services
to help you follow through on
your resolutions. These free
tools can help provide a constant reminder.
9. Review your resolution
regularly
Lets face it, if you are not
thinking about your resolution
regularly, you are not going to
follow through. Thus, a crucial
part of realizing your goal is a
regular review.
At a minimum, this review
should be monthly, but the
more frequent the better.
Heres one way to build in
goal review into your routine.
Schedule a monthly big picture review during the first
week of each month. This will
serve as a planning meeting
where you distribute smaller
tasks and goals to different
weeks throughout the month.
Do a weekly check-in to check
progress on the monthly goal.
Set a daily reminder for smaller resolution tasks.
It may seem a little crazy
to think about your resolution
every single day, but it is those
smaller incremental steps that
lead to massive changes over
the course of a single year.
10. If you fall off track, get
back on quick
Rome was not built in a day.
Weve established it will
take time for your resolution
to become a reality and we
know change is difficult. In
fact, weve already established
we should leave some room for
mistakes and setbacks.
Keep the following ideas in
mind:
Skipping an intermediate
task is not a complete failure
Missing a goal by 10% or
even 80% is not a complete failure
Finishing a task late is not
a complete failure
A moment of weakness
is meaningless in the grand
scheme of things
Setbacks can happen, but
so long as they are handled
correctly, they will not impact
the big goal. The key is to avoid
a defeatist attitude at all costs,
i.e. Well I screwed up once,
why should I even try to do this
anymore.
And if there is a setback, its
important to understand what
lead to that moment, and how
you can avoid a similar situation in the future, i.e. "If I play
video games after work, I will
not go to the gym. Dont play
video games after work!"
Once a mistake is made,
own it and move on to the
next thing. For example, if you
skipped a study session, make
it up tomorrow, and keep on
moving. A few small mistakes
shouldnt spoil your resolution
for the year!

If you are a motorist wanting to pass a KDOT truck plowing snow or putting down salt
or brine to fight ice, you might
not realize why it is moving so
slowly.
It comes down to physics
and performance.
Fact, the physics: A KDOT
plow truck weighs around
26,300 pounds and thats
unloaded while the average
vehicle weighs about 4,000
pounds.
The KDOT operator is trying
to keep all that weight under
control in slippery conditions
while pushing snow with a
plow in front and maybe a wing
plow on the side. Thats a lot of
force exerting from different
directions to keep under control.
So the operating speed for
the plow truck in those conditions is well under normal
highway speeds — and may
be as low as 10 mph when a
blizzard cuts visibility. Just
because the truck is so heavy
doesnt mean it wont lose control on ice or packed snow.
One reason KDOT wants
motorists to keep a distance
behind snow-and-ice treatment
trucks is this: beet juice and
brine.
KDOT sometimes uses 10%
beet juice with brine. The beet
juice helps brine stick to pavement so the brine can melt
ice or prevent it from form-
ing, especially on elevated or
exposed areas prone to freezing.
The beet-brine mix also can
spray back on vehicles, especially if they are close enough
to the KDOT truck applying
the mix. Its why KDOT recommends that motorists stay back
100 feet if possible.
District Five Engineer Brent
Terstriep explains: Depending
on the storm, we may be pretreating the entire road section,
or we may only treat structures,
like culverts or bridges. When
we spot treat, especially over a
culvert, that is not extremely
apparent to the motorist – that
they are crossing a structure.
They may get a surprise when
the liquid is turned on.
In addition, if the truck goes
much over 30 mph when dropping salt, much of it can bounce
off the roadway.
This is why KDOT asks the
public to please be patient and
keep a distance behind KDOT
plow trucks, and, if possible,
wait until the plow truck turns
around before passing.
If you pass, please do so carefully and remember that you
might not see a wing plow jutting out 7 feet from the side of
the plow truck because of blowing snow or limited visibility.
The most important thing
to us is that everyone gets home
safely — the traveling public
and our people, said KDOT
Wichita Area Superintendent
David Lechner. So we ask that
you be alert and understand
the speeds at which we have to
work.
Important tips to prepare your car and yourself for winter driving
Prepare Your Car for Winter
In addition to annual maintenance, here are some tips to
winterize your car:
Test your battery; battery
power drops as the temperature drops
Make sure the cooling system is in good working order
Have winter tires with a
deeper, more flexible tread put
on your car
If using all-season tires,
check the tread on your tires
and replace if less than 2/32 of
an inch
Check the tire pressure; tire
pressure drops as the temperature drops
Check your wiper blades
and replace if needed
Add wiper fluid rated for -30
degrees
Keep your gas tank at least
half full to avoid gas line freeze
Remember to keep your
cars emergency preparedness
kit fully stocked, too.
Before You Start Out
Clean your cars external
camera lenses and side view
mirrors so youll be able to see
whats around you
Remove dirt, ice and snow
from sensors to allow the assistive-driving features like automatic emergency braking to
work
In frigid weather, you may
want to warm up the car before
you drive it
To prevent carbon monoxide poisoning, never leave a
vehicle running in your garage
even with the garage door up
If the forecast looks iffy,
wait out the storm if possible;
if you must travel, share your
travel plans and route with
someone before you leave
How to Avoid a Crash
AAA offers the following
driving tips:
Avoid using cruise control in
wintry conditions
Steer in the direction of
a skid, so when your wheels
regain traction, you dont have
to overcorrect to stay in your
lane
Accelerate and decelerate
slowly
Increase following distance
to 8 to 10 seconds
If possible, don't stop when
going uphill
If visibility is severely lim-
ited due to a whiteout, pull off
the road to a safe place and
do not drive until conditions
improve. Avoid pulling off onto
the shoulder unless it is an
absolute emergency. Limited
visibility means other vehicles
cant see yours on the shoulder.
Know Your Cars Capabilities
My Car Does What? is a
national campaign to help educate drivers about the safety
features built into vehicles.
Search for your car and find
out what safety features are
already built in.
Traction control is now
standard on most new vehicles. This function helps your
vehicle gain traction on snowy,
icy or wet surfaces, particu-
larly when accelerating from
a stopped or slowed position,
or when trying to make it up a
slippery hill.
Anti-lock braking system
(ABS) helps you steer in emergencies by restoring traction
to your tires and is standard
