Kansas may pay you more to stay home
BY PATRICK RICHARDSON
THE SENTINEL
WASHINGTON, D.C. The
$1.9 trillion Covid-relief
package currently wending
its way through Congress,
could see Kansans paid considerably more to stay home
providing the state ever
gets beleagured unemployment system straightened
out than they made working.
According to an editorial
in the Wall Street Journal
by Casey B. Mulligan and
Stephen Moore, In Kansas, a
family of four with two unemployed adults who had earned
U.S. median wages could get
paid, including the Biden
add-on package, the aftertax equivalent of more than
$135,000 on an annual basis
without working an hour. In
Massachusetts, where state
unemployment benefits are
the highest in the nation,
the figure is $170,000. This

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Active cases of
coronavirus continued to fall
in Anderson County and elsewhere around the country in
recent weeks as vaccine rollouts
expanded, but Kansas still ranks
toward the bottom of states in
distributing those shots.
The second vaccine clinic
in Anderson County last week
dropped its age limit to those
65 years old and older. An initial clinic weeks ago started
out with an 85 year age limit
but dropped to 75 after it was
determined extra vaccine was
available. That clinic administered about 180 shots, officials
said. No information was made
available on the number of shots
done at last Wednesdays clinic,
though the type of vaccine being
distributed in Anderson County
requires two separate doses to
be effective.
As of last week Anderson
County had only four active
cases of the virus according
to data from the Southeast
Kansas Multi-County Health
Department. Official records
showed 809 county residents
had been infected with the virus
over the past year. Statewide
statistics show about a 98.5 percent survival rate in Kansas
with some 4,700 deaths attributed to the virus.
According to Johns Hopkins
University, the US is seeing a
29% decline in new Covid-19
cases last week from the same
period a week ago, the steepest

City pressed to rectify FAA
safety concerns over runways
position, other discrepencies
BY DANE HICKS
GARNETT Organizers with
the local chapter of Business
and Professional Womens
Club announced last week
the 2021 Square Fair is a go.
Last years event, traditionally held the Saturday
before Mothers Day in
May, was cancelled due to
concerns over the Covid19 virus. Numerous other
events followed suit with
what amounted to a full year
of public event cancellations in the area, including
much of Julys county fair
and Septembers Cornstock
Concert in Lake Garnett
Park as well as community
events in Colony, Greeley
and Kincaid. Cornstock organizers pulled the plug on that
event for 2021 in late January.
BPW members had considered pursing the annual arts
& crafts festival as a virtual event with sales of items
available by computer linkup, but changed the plan last
week back to the traditional
in-person event.
one-week decline the country
has seen during the pandemic. Sources at the Centers for
Disease Control said the US continues to see a five-week decline,
with the seven-day average of
cases declining 69% since peaking on January 11.
Kansas administered only
67% of the COVID vaccine
doses it has received so far as
of last week. Governor Kelly
blames the states poor showing on COVID vaccinations on
data entry problems. Thats 10
percentage points below the
national average, according to
Bloombergs vaccine tracker.
Nationally, about 16.7 people per 100 individuals have
received at least one dose, but
in Kansas, the number is 13.4
people per 100. When vaccine
trackers first showed Kansas
vaccinations trailed the rest of
the nation, state officials said
the tracking sites revealed a lag
in data reporting due to training
and not due to slower than aver-
age distribution.
We hope that as this process
moves forward, and everyone
becomes trained, we will be
able to share accurate numbers
more readily, KDHE spokesperson Ashley Jones-Wisner
told the Associated Press back
in December.
Last week, Dr. Marci Nielsen,
the chief advisor for COVID-19
coordination in Kansas, repeated the refrain.
We need to train some of our
providers, she said. We need
to make sure weve got adequate
staff to get all of this data in.
But some have been critical
of Kansas rate of delivery for
the vaccine.
The first week, I bought
it, said state Rep. Pat Proctor,
a Leavenworth Republican.
Theres a data lag, but how
many weeks are we into this
and were still almost flat last.
The problem isnt reporting.

GARNETT City officials will
be closely watching a pledge
by federal regulators to probe
allegations of price gouging
and market manipulation in
the natural gas and electricity
markets, after a cold snap two
weeks ago that broadsided the
citys natural gas budget.

The Garnett airport runways proximity to publicly travelled roads is a major point of
concern for FFA planners willing to fund the facilty upgrade. This Beech Bonanza landed
downwind last summer and skated off the north end of the airstrip nearly onto 1750 Road.
ment and the fact that either end of the
runway is mere feet away from 1700 and
1750 (Fourth Avenue) roads are major
problems with the FAAs modern safety
specifications, the crown in the middle of the runway is perhaps the biggest
issue.
The biggest problem they (FAA) have
is the crown in it, Schettler said. Its the
sight areas. If you have an aircraft on the
north side, he cant see if theres another
one coming at him from the south side.
Thats a problem.
The Garnett airport was constructed
in 1949. An airport master plan commissioned in 2018 at a cost of some $180,000,
90 percent funded by the FAA, laid out
changes to be made to meet those modern
specifications. Schettler said preliminary
estimates for the plan to be between $4
million and $6 million depending on land
acquisition costs and other factors. Once
approved, 90 percent of this cost would
be paid by the FAA, with 75 per cent of

Regulators to probe natural
gas price spike that rimwrecked Garnett gas budget
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT City leaders, airport staff
and neighboring property owners met
Thursday night in Garnett to try to hammer out logistics for an upcoming expansion project at the citys airport that will
require the abandonment of NE 1700 Road
south of the facility.
Airport manager Pat Schettler said
the meeting was an attempt to involve
neighboring landowners as the facility
plan is developed and to come up with a
road plan that meets both landowner and
project needs.
Were not even in the design phase
yet, Schettler said Friday. We just wanted to get some feedback from the landowners.
The plan will eventually require the
vacation of a portion of NE 1700 Road
just south of the airstrip for the planned
extension of the strip from the present
2,600 feet to 3,400 feet. One idea to continue access for the road would be to build a
new mile county road to connect 1700
and 1750 roads east of the airport.
Besides exending its length, the plan
would also call for the expansion of the
runways width from 45 feet to 75 feet.
Schettler said safety concerns are the
driving force behind what the Federal
Aviation Administration basically says
is either upgrade or cease receiving anymore federal funding.

City considers comprehensive
transportation, street plan
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT City commissioners broached the idea of developing a city-wide comprehensive street plan Tuesday night
with the idea of undertaking
a need study and long-range
funding plan.
Transportation plans typically assess current development patterns, economic and
demographic trends and overall adopted principle and values for development in terms of
the needed streets, sidewalks,
parks, trails, land use and
other factors that follow those
trends and objectives.
Xxxx xxxxx with xxxxx of
Lenexa said costs for such a
plan would depend on the scope
of the study and how many different community factors were
included. He said a basic study
might be conducted for as little
as $20,000-$30,000.
City manager Chris Weiner
said a completed study might

LICKTEIG
MAY 13, 1959 – FEBRUARY 17, 2021
Brenda Sue (Spain) Lickteig,
61, passed away peacefully at
Life Care Center of Osawatomie
into her heavenly home on
February 17, 2021 after battling a long illness. She was
reunited with
her Lord, the
love of her
life, Howard
Lickteig,
her mother,
Donna Spain,
and
other
relatives and
friends.
Lickteig
Brenda
was born in
Independence, Mo. on May 13,
1959 to Donna Marie (Slatier)
and Virgil Lee Spain. Being the
youngest, her childhood was
filled with being taunted by her
two older brothers, whom she
loved very much.
In 1976, Brenda met a dashing young man named Howard
Lickteig in Englewood, Colo.
They married February 4,1978
in Scipio, Kan., and made their
home in Colorado until 1985
when they moved with their
two young daughters to Olathe
and eventually Paola, Kan.
While living in Paola,
Brenda earned her GED. She
spent many nights in class and
was very proud that she accomplished this while also facing
the challenges of raising two
young children.
Brenda worked many jobs
over the years, including at
the Louisburg Cider Mill in
Louisburg, Kan., as a receptionist at the Louisburg
Animal Clinic, in Louisburg,
Kan., and for Three Hawks
Bakery in Paola, Kan., where
she discovered the joy of baking. Eventually that led to her
work as a professional baker at
Hyvee in Olathe, Kan.
Though Brenda and Howard
eventually separated and
divorced in 2000, both never
stopped loving one another.
Brenda married Timothy Lyon
in 2001 and divorced him in
2020.
Brenda was incredibly
proud of her oldest daughter,
Lindsays, accomplishments,
including her higher level college education and her family.
Brenda loved her four grandchildren Aaron, Natalie, Anna
and Joshua and loved talking
about their intelligence and big
hearts.
Brenda always joked she had
her second daughter, Kelsay, to
help entertain Lindsay. Brenda
loved telling her friends about
Kelsay being a broadcast news
producer. Kelsay also inherited Brenda's love of birds
(bluebirds and hummingbirds
were very special to Brenda)
and Brenda loved Kelsay's
photography of all her feathered friends. Brenda also loved
Kelsay's boyfriend Jarrett
Leone and took great joy in his
jewelry making.
Brenda is survived by her
daughter Lindsay Faust, sonin-law Stephen Faust, and
four grandchildren Aaron,
Natalie, Anna, and Joshua
Faust, Conifer, Colo.; her
daughter Kelsay Hart and
her longtime partner Jarrett
Leone, Spotsylvania, Va.; Scoti
Burke, Donna Spain's life partner, Thornton, Colo.; brother
Bill Spain and wife Linda,
Commerce City, Colo.; brother
John Spain and wife Kyung
He, Seoul, South Korea; many
nieces and nephews; and her
dear friend Lynn Lickteig and
her large extended Lickteig
family. She was preceded in
death by her first husband
Howard Lickteig; her mother
Donna Spain; her father Virgil
Spain; her uncle Fred and aunt
Charlene Looper; her uncle
Pierre Slatier; her maternal
grandparents Pierre R. and
Bernadine Othic Slatier, Marie
and Don Boniface; and her
paternal grandparents Willie
and Victory Spain.
Brenda's final years were
not easy, but she always made
a point to try and lift up everyone she met along the way.
She found joy in making people
feel good about themselves. She
had a good sense of humor,
loved to shop, and had a lifelong love affair with anything
chocolate and good coffee.
In lieu of flowers, Brenda's
family asks that you either
write letters or send cards to
nursing home residents, give
a random stranger a compliment, or listen to Joe Cocker's
"You Are So Beautiful."
The family will announce a
virtual celebration of life at a
later date.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, March 2, 2021
OPINION
How to destroy womens sports
On the very first day of his presidency, Joe
Biden took one giant leap backward for womens
rights when he issued an executive order forcing schools to allow student athletes to compete
in sports based on their gender identity instead
of their biological sex.
To put it simply, he made it possible for genetic boys to compete against girls.
Often the pinnacle of so many girls athletics
experiences in high school is the state competitions toward the end of each season.
Take for instance the yearly state track
meet in Kansas, where hundreds of girls compete against each other to be the best in their
event. Theyve trained most of their life for
this moment: theyve woken up at dawn to
weight train, worked on technique refinement
for hours on end, and run miles upon miles for
endurance training.
Now that President Bidens executive order
is in place, imagine that very athlete looking at
the lane to her left and seeing a genetic boy lined
up next to her.
Unfortunately, weve already seen this scenario play out on the state level. In Connecticut,
at the 2019 Connecticut Indoor Track & Field
State Championships a young girl by the name
of Selina Soule missed out on competing in
the New England Regional Championships
when two genetic boys were allowed to compete
against girls. As a result, Soule finished outside
of the threshold needed to advance and in turn,
was deprived of a shot at winning and possible exposure to college scouts and scholarship
opportunities.
As an OBGYN, who has raised a daughter and
coached countless girls in various sports, I have
always stepped up for women and always fought
to make sure they get an equal opportunity. I
find it unfair and quite frankly un-American
that this new administration is allowing biological boys to compete against biological girls in
sports.
Growing up, sports taught me that there was
a level playing field and that we all had equal
opportunity to compete and win. Letting biological boys compete in biological girls high school
and college sports is not equal, it doesnt level
the playing field, and its certainly not fair.
The fastest female sprinter in the world has a
lifetime record of 49.26 seconds for the 400-meter
run. In 2018, nearly 300 high-school boys in the
U.S. alone recorded faster times. Does that seem
fair to our daughters and granddaughters? And,
if one takes into account hormone therapy, the
playing field still isnt leveled. A recent study by
GUEST EDITORIAL
ROGER MARSHALL U.S. SENATOR/KANSAS
the British Journal of Sports Medicine suggests
that even after two years of hormone therapy,
biological boys still maintain significant advantages over girls, including being 12% faster on
the 1.5-mile run.
This year we will celebrate the 49th anniversary of Title IX, which expanded civil rights for
women and created opportunities for female
athletes to compete. We should be focused on
defending womens rights specifically womens athletics and not halting progress on
historical efforts over the past half-century that
made it possible for girls to have equal opportunities as boys when it comes to sports.
For these reasons, I have joined my colleagues
to introduce The Protection of Women and Girls
in Sports Act, legislation to protect athletic
opportunities for female athletes. Our bill would
remove the Title IX funding for schools that
allow genetic boys to compete against girls.
Additionally, for a number of reasons, I
intend to vote against President Bidens nominee, Miguel Cardona, to be U.S. secretary of education. At a recent hearing, I asked him about
the issue and he was unwilling to provide alternatives or confirm he would not allow genetic
boys to compete against girls in sports. It gives
me great pause that this is the person President
Biden is entrusting our kids with.
Regardless of sex, everyone should have
access to opportunity and the ability to find
their happiness. While those who are transgender are entitled to their rights, so too are girls
who are just looking for an opportunity to compete against their peers, the genetically female
ones.
There is nothing fair about President Bidens
executive order. It shows no common sense and
will bring about the destruction of womens
sports. ###

I have to say I really do enjoy the few people
who have left their Christmas lights on outside
through the winter. I love Christmas lights
and they bring beautiful light to the dark and
dreary cold days of winter, especially during a
pandemic. I think Garnett should make effort
to become the Christmas city of Kansas and
promote people leaving their Christmas lights
on from the weekend after Thanksgiving until
St. Patricks Day in March. I always find it
depressing to take down Christmas lights and
hunker down for a long dark winter. And with

them on is costing too much. It seems we do all

Press swapped the script on Cuomo vs. DeSantis
Throughout the pandemic, the press has
been excoriatingly harsh on a governor who
was slow to act, unnecessarily endangered
the lives of the elderly, alienated experts and
cooked the numbers.
It just thought the governor in question
was Floridas Ron DeSantis rather than New
Yorks Andrew Cuomo.
After it has become clear that Cuomos handling of the pandemic was not just criminal in
the metaphorical sense, but perhaps in the literal sense, the press has begun, only reluctantly and belatedly, to abandon its long-running
Cuomo hagiography.
It never made any sense to lionize Andrew
Cuomo at the expense of Ron DeSantis, except
that one had a D after his name and the
other didnt, and one hated Trump and the
other didnt. The national media also labors
under the assumption that New York must be
competent while the Sunshine State is the preserve of the embarrassingly boorish Florida
Man.
Finally, the media loved the way Cuomo
talked about the pandemic at his take-charge
press conferences. This was taken as the opposite of Trumps approach, which it was -Cuomo talked a good game, while utterly
botching the substance of the response, while
Trump talked irresponsibly about the pandemic, while handling the substance pretty
well (or, certainly, not as badly as advertised).
All this meant that the press made both Cuomo
and DeSantis into something they were not
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
— a hero and a villain, respectively — when it
should have been obvious all along that this
wasnt remotely justified.
From the outset of the pandemic, New York
state has had the highest number of deaths of
any state and still does (47,000), and the second
highest deaths-per-million of anywhere in the
country. In contrast, Florida is right around
the national average for deaths-per-million.
Journalists brushed right by these top-line
numbers in the interest of their tendentious
narrative-building.
They erupted in outrage when DeSantis
was allegedly slow to close the beaches last
March, but didnt dwell much on Cuomo saying, when the virus was already spreading
throughout his state: The facts defeat fear.
Because the reality is reassuring.
They accused DeSantis of unnecessarily
endangering seniors when the Florida governor took steps to protect the nursing homes,
and Andrew Cuomo, infamously, ordered
nursing homes to accept COVID-19 patients.
They claimed DeSantis was rejecting the
science by, among other things, pushing
to reopen the schools, an approach that has
proved out. Meanwhile, experts have fled
the New York public health bureaucracy in
response to Cuomos highhandedness.
They bought the bogus story of a Florida
data manager who was supposedly persecuted
for blowing the whistle on the states manipulation of its COVID numbers, when, of course,
this is exactly what Cuomo was doing.
And so, the medias anointed hero of the
pandemic — who wrote a book on his own
exemplary pandemic response, who won a
Grammy, who was elevated to an authority
with the standing to comment on how the
country was handling COVID-19 — is facing
calls to resign or face impeachment and is the
subject of multiple investigations, while his
routine bullying of critics is now out in the
open.
Not only are none of these things happening
to Ron DeSantis, his policy of avoiding strict
lockdowns, which occasioned so much criticism, has avoided the educational and economic downsides of Cuomos policies. According to

Florida data, the state offers
more in-person education than
any other state and it has a
lower unemployment rate than
the national average and other
populous states. This matters
greatly to the well-being of
Floridians.
All of this said, the virus has
presented enormous challenges and excruciating choices to
policymakers around the coun-
try. Its not healthy to be overly
invested in red state versus
blue state comparisons. But

trust in these perverted agendas and reactions surrounding
COVID-19.
If parents who do not wear a
mask are forced to wear a mask
in a school building while basketball players and referees are
allowed to run up and down the
court without a mask (thankfully) then we have a glaring
inconsistency that proves that
school league and KSHSAA
members (unelected people),
and elected school board members must know the masks do
not work and are merely prescribing one set of rules for one
group and another set of rules
for parents and students in our
public schools . The mask is
no more than a symbol of compliance and control over parents and spectators through the
abuse of our children without
our consent and the use of our
publicly funded buildings and
it has to stop now.
Reminder: a governor, as
defined in our Kansas constitution Article 1, (3) does not allow
for the executive branch to
have Legislative Powers or create laws or mandates. Neither
the Judicial or Executive
Branch has the constitutional authority or jurisdiction to
create any mandate, law, or
tell the Legislative Body how
much money they are required
to allocate for the funding of
public education. Only the
Kansas Legislature has the sole
power to create laws pursuant
to its constitution as stated in
Article 2, (1). But I want to
reiterate that no ACT, statute,
mandate, resolution, or executive order can be created and
have any force of law if it is
NOT pursuant to our Kansas
constitution as written and ratified.
Emergency Powers in itself,
is a direct violation of your
accident, or other cause. This
scientific and spiritual truth
is not something the government can, or should, legislate
away. It is NOT your job to
save us. It is your job to protect
our RIGHT to live life, exercise
our liberties, and own our own
property (including our speech
and thoughts) without infringement by the government, or
others. It is time to reevaluate
the only real purpose for the
existence of government and
restore that.
Your actions, and the results
of the 2021 legislative Session
will remain in the minds of voters throughout 2022 and into
the next election cycle so work
hard and fulfill the reason for
the existence of government
and leave the rest to the individual.

unceremonious fashion with

GARNETT – Early on it
appeared Anderson County
was well on their way to a win
last Tuesday against Santa Fe
Trail before the Bulldogs fell
flat in the fourth quarter of a
46-39 loss at home.
Anderson County jumped
out early and led 12-8 after the
first quarter and held that slim
margin heading into halftime
17-13.
SFT would all but erase the
Bulldogs lead in the third quarter, outsourcing Anderson
County 16-13 and cutting their
deficit to just one heading into
the fourth.
The momentum would stay
on the side of the visitors.
Anderson County would muster just 9 points over the final
period while Santa Fe Trail
responded with 17 points to
pull out the win.
Rockers led Anderson
County with 10 points. Dilliner
and Katzer scored 9 each.
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 3-2-2021 / DANE HICKS
Bulldogs win streak halted
rebound nicely coming out of
the break, tallying 26 points
in both the third and fourth
quarters but just couldnt get
nearly enough stops on the
defensive end to make a run at
Osawatomie.
Osawatomie scored just 12
points in the third quarter but
still held a comfortable 64-47
lead heading into the fourth.
The loss kicked off a busy
week for ACHS as they played
4 games in 5 nights.
Leading ACHS was Cali
Foltz with 31 points, 14
rebounds, 4 steals and 2 blocks
and Rayna Jasper with 20
points, 5 rebounds, 5 steals and
5 assists.
Kylie Disbrow worked hard
inside for 4 points but also had

GARNETT – Last Thursday,
Burlington nearly doubled the
score of Anderson County as
they scored a 59-31 win.
Burlington jumped out to
a 21-9 after the first quarter
and extended their advantage
to 38-20 heading into intermission.
In the second half, the
Bulldogs struggled mightily on
offense scoring just 5 points
in the third quarter and just 6
more in the fourth. Burlington
countered with 10 in the third
and 11 in the fourth.
Katzer led Anderson County
with 7 points, Peine chipped in
with 6.

to limit the number of wres-

Schaffer drew eventual state
champion Tucker Cell (38-0) of
Abilene and lost by Fall (0:39).
In the consolation bracket,
Schaffer would fall to Dalton

OSAWATOMIE – It was a battle of two of the top teams in
the area on Monday, February
22,
but unfortunately for
the Anderson County Lady
Bulldog fans, the game didnt
live up to the hype as they fell
in disappointing fashion, 88-73.
Anderson County had won
13 straight games before the
defeat. Osawatomie (17-2) lost
earlier this season in mid
December to the Bulldogs 61-60
and were coming off just their
second loss of the season to
Burlington the game before.
Osawatomie took command
early, jumping out to a 25-6
lead after the first quarter.
The Bulldogs couldnt stop the
bleeding in the second quarter either and faced a nearly
insurmountable deficit of 50-21
heading into halftime.
The Lady Bulldogs did
od, they led at halftime 35-5.
The struggles offensively
continued for Crest throughout
the remainder of the contest,
netting just 4 more points in
the third quarter and 2 in the
fourth.
Lebo scored a baker's dozen
in the third to lead 48-9 heading
into the final period.

MADISON -Sixth-seeded Crest
(8-11) entered their sub-state
contest against Madison (15-5),
seeded third, fresh off a 66-28
loss the previous week to them.
Facing an uphill challenge
they just werent able to keep it
close. It was a 67-37 loss to close
out their season on Friday.
Crest kept Madison within
reach after the first eight minutes, trailing just 13-11 heading
into the second.
Madison would dominate
the second and third quarter
too, once again, pulling away
for the lopsided victory.

AC girls down SFT
GARNETT – Following
the end of their win streak
on Monday night, Anderson
County didnt have to wait
long before trying to kick
off a second win streak with
Tuesdays game against Santa
Fe Trail at home.
After a sluggish start, the
Lady Bulldogs did the majority of their damage in the third
quarter en route to a 47-37 win.
The hangover was evident
early on as Santa Fe Trail
clinged to an 11-10 lead after
the first quarter. The Bulldogs
did take the lead heading into
halftime, it was by just three,
21-18.
Following intermission, AC
went on a 14-5 run during the
third period to take a 35-23
lead with just 8 minutes left.
SFT would hang tough, outscoring the Bulldogs in the
fourth, but by just points.
Cali Foltz led AC with 17
points, 10 rebounds and 3
steals.
Wellsville nears century
mark in win over AC
WELLSVILLE – The AC boys
couldnt keep pace on Saturday
as Wellsville ran up and down
the court, cruising to a 94-55
win.
Wellsville scored 28 points
in the first quarter en route to
a 53-26 halftime lead.
The third quarter was much
more competitive, Wellsville
held a 20-16 advantage to head
into the final quarter with a
huge 73-42 lead.
While the pace slowed
slightly in the fourth quarter, Wellsville still added to
their advantage by outscoring
Anderson County 21-13 to close
out the victory.
Katzer led Anderson County
with 11 points, Dilliner was
close behind with 9 points.

The FERC said its investigation of the gas and electricity markets would take
place as part of the Division
of Analytics and Surveillances
ongoing surveillance of market participant behavior in the
wholesale natural gas and electricity markets. The division
uses market participant-level
trading data and data from the
financial markets to screen
daily and monthly trading at
the majority of physical and
financial natural gas trading
hubs in the U.S. and the organized and bilateral wholesale
electricity markets.
If the Office of Enforcement
finds any potential wrongdoing
that can be addressed under
FERCs statutory authority,
it will pursue those matters
as non-public investigations,
said a press release announcing the probe.
Weiner told commissioners hed been advised by legal
counsel to pursue the declaration of financial emergency
because it might place the city
in better position to file a claim
at some future time for damages resulting from the price
spike.
Weiner said the city was
forced to buy spot market gas
to cover city demand during
the cold spell, and that those
rates spiked to some $324 per
unit from less than $3 only days
before. That pricing dynamic
sparked widespread outrage
across the Midwest, as both
municipal and private gas
companies were broadsided by
those spot rates for gas needed to supplement their usual
demand. Gas producers blamed
sudden spiking demand for
more gas along with freezeups that shut off some gas
wells across gas producing
states and limited supply when
demand was highest for the
price escalation.
Its not just us, Weiner
said. Its gas users all over the
Midwest. Theres going to be a
lot of pressure put on to see if
there is some relief that can be
provided here.
No discussion was held
Tuesday
on
anticipated
increases to customer gas rates
for city customers to cover the
draw down in cash from the gas

blow the game open and lead
60-30 heading into the fourth.
Both teams tallied 7 points
in the final to account for the
final.
Kobey Miller scored 20
points to lead the Lancers.
Despite the loss and difficulties of an usual season, Coach
Travis Hermreck still had a lot
of fun coaching his squad.
We competed a lot harder against them this time
than we did last Tuesday.
Unfortunately, similar results.
We just couldn't match up to
all of their weapons, and we
turned the ball over way too
much. Despite a lot of inconsistent effort and play, this was
a fun team to coach. We didn't
catch many breaks this year,
including being put in a tough
sub-state. Ironically, if we
were Division II this year we
would probably be going to the
state tournament, Hermreck
stated.

GARNETT – Not only had
Burlington won 5 of their last 6
but they were coming off a win
over a one-loss Osawatomie
team, but Anderson County
would jump out to a big first
half lead and never look back
in a 76-51 victory.
AC led by just four, 20-16,
after the first quarter but
stretched their lead well into
double figures thanks to a 21-10
advantage in the second quarter.
The Lady Bulldogs would
continue to pull away throughout the second half.
Burlington was outscored
18-11 in the third quarter and
17-15 in the fourth period.
A trio of Anderson County
girls hit double figures scoring in the game Cali Foltz
and Rayna Jasper both scored
24 points, followed by Katie
Schmit with 16.
Jasper entered the contest just 13 points shy of 1,000
points in her career. Jasper
talliedd 245 as a sophomore,
419 as a junior and has 347 this
season following the victory
over Burlington.
ACHS girls win 3rd straight
WELLSVILLE – After opening the week with a loss, the
ACHS Lady Bulldogs have run
off 3 straight wins following a
63-35 victory over Wellsville.
Despite
Wellsvilles
record being (3-16), they gave
Anderson County all they could
handle in their first matchup
back in early January which
resulted in a 49-44 win for AC.
This contest started eerily
similar. Anderson County led
15-13 after the first quarter and
31-25 at the halftime break.
Following
halftime,
Anderson County would assert
themselves and pull away for
the lopsided victory.
The Bulldogs outscored
Wellsville 31-10 in the second
half. The tally was 18-6 in the
third
quarter and 13-4 in the
fourth quarter for Anderson
County.
Rayna Jasper and Cali Foltz

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 3-2-2021 / SUBMITTED
Kindergartners at Greeley Elementary had fun learning how objects affect outcome. STEM teacher,
Bayley Linn, who is also an elementary technology teacher, asked students to choose objects like
feathers, pom poms, and styrofoam balls for use in constructing a paintbrush. The objects were chosen based on the picture they wanted to paint. Pictured above: Mrs. Linn watches Bodhi Rockers use a
feather-tipped paintbrush to paint a jungle picture..

may also receive. The Biden
package of benefits would
exceed the wages and salaries
of at least 85% of households.
The median US income for
families in 2020, according to
the Department of Housing
and Urban Development, was
roughly $78,500. The median
household income in Kansas,
according to the Census Bureau
was nearly $20,000 less in 2019,
at $59,597.
Moore, in an email response
to an inquiry by the Sentinel,
noted this was unfair to working Kansans.
In Kansas, welfare and
unemployment under the
stimulus plan will pay many
families more than $100,000 on
an annual basis, Moore said.
They will get more for not
working than for going back
on the job. That isnt fair to
Kansans who are working.

Moore is a co-chairman of
the Committee to Unleash
Prosperity, where Mulligan is
a senior fellow.
The $1.9 trillion bill, according to Mulligan and Moore,
would be one of the largest expansions in government
welfare benefits since the birth
of the modern welfare state.
And could cost between five
million and eight million jobs
in the next six months.
In combination with
Decembers $900 billion package, the new bill would expand
the safety net to include six
months of weekly $400 bonus
unemployment benefits on top
of the normal weekly benefits,
a $3,000-a-child tax credit, an
expansion of food stamps and
rental assistance, $2,000-a-person checks, and expanded health benefits, the pair
wrote. The Biden plan is welfare reform in reverse. It would
repeal many of the successful
work requirements dating to
the Clinton era, and it contains
only minimal requirements in
exchange for its cash payments
and other benefits.
Moreover, the pair predicted
when the original Cares Act
was passed, the added benefit
would reduce employment by
millions when jobs came back.
Sure
enough,
Labor
Department statistics verified that millions of jobs went
unfilled last summer even as
Pi Day is an unofficial holiday commemorating the mathematical constant pi. Pi Day is

House of Representatives supported the designation Pi Day.

unemployment was historically high, they wrote, adding
What will happen this time
around? The combination of
benefits are likely to reduce
employment by five million
to seven million jobs. The $15
minimum wage, if it stays in
the bill, would bring the total
to more than eight million.
Indeed, while may have
touted a Congressional Budget
Office report that said a $15
million minimum wage would
lift 900,000 Americans out of
poverty, most are conveniently ignoring that CBO estimates
it would cost 1.4 million jobs,
a net loss of 500,000 back into
poverty and would add $54
billion to the deficit.
Those estimates are consistent with CBOs conventional approach to estimating
the costs of legislation, the
report reads. In particular,
they incorporate the assumption that nominal gross domestic product (GDP) would be
unchanged. As a result, total
income is roughly unchanged.
Also, the deficit estimate presented above does not include
increases in net outlays for
interest on federal debt (as projected under current law) that
would stem from the estimated
effects of higher interest rates
and changes in inflation under
the bill. Those interest costs
would add $16 billion to the
deficit from 2021 to 2031.
Mulligan and Moore conclude by noting the damage
to the incentive to work contained in this bill.
Many Americans will
always choose the dignity of
work over government handouts. But the Biden benefit
package makes going back to
work a money-losing proposition, they wrote.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, March 2, 2021
LOCAL
A life lived in the
image of God
In Genesis 1:26 we read. Then
God said, Let us make man in
our image, in our likeness, and
let them rule over the fish of the
sea and the birds of the air, over
the livestock, over all the earth
and over all creatures that move
along the ground. Man was
the pinnacle of Gods creation.
This is apparent in the above
text when man is given exclusive right to rule over all the
earth. However with this authority came responsibility. Part of
that hinged on man obeying God.
The only restriction God Placed
on man was, that Adam was prohibited from eating from the tree
of the knowledge of good and evil.
At this point in time man is
communing with God in the garden, walking and living in harmony with Gods plan. Up to
this point God had labeled his
creation as very good. Then we
read of the serpent, the deception
of Eve and the fall of man. Now
if we move forward 2000 years
to the ministry of Jesus we see
the Jews under the iron hand of
Rome. Satans intrusion into the
garden and then into the lives of
Adam and Eve and their descendants had left them in bondage.
One command in the garden disobeyed had turned into the ten
commandments of the law. The
pursuit of Adam and Eve and
their descendants for autonomy
(self-rule) had left them in a state
of hopelessness. Jesus addresses the people in Matthew 11:28,
Come to me, all you who are
weary and burdened, and I will
give you rest. Take my yoke
upon you and learn from me, for
I am gentle and humble, and you
WEEKLY DEVOTIONAL
BY DAVID BILDERBACK
will find rest for your souls. For
my yoke is easy and my burden
is light. What caused Jesus to
make a statement like this. He
saw a people who were not living
in the image of God. Unable to
save themselves and unwilling to
receive a Savior who could save
them.
Jim Elliot a missionary who
was killed by the Huaorani
Indians in Ecuador said this. He
is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot
lose. The author of Proverbs
also captured this well 14; 12,
There is a way that seems right
to man, but in the end it leads to
death.
So what does a life lived in
Jesus look like? It is a life lived
in freedom. Freedom from being
a slave to sin, shame and guilt
caused by our mistakes. From
being enslaved to our selfish
desires. It is freedom that allows
us to live in truth, believe in the
truth and demonstrate that truth
to others.
Ministry on the Holiness of God.

CASES…
FROM PAGE 1
Currently, Kansas ranks 47th
in the percent of vaccines used,
ahead of only New Hampshire,
Alabama, the District of
Columbia, and Rhode Island,
the Bloomberg tracker reports.
Kansas ranks 48th doses used
in the Center for Disease
Control tracking system.
Proctor says hed like to be
able to tell his constituents
when they will be eligible to
receive the vaccines. What
little information he receives
comes from tracking projects
like Bloomberg and even from
local distributors rather than
from the Kansas Department
of Health and Environment.
Walmart
here
in
Leavenworth and in several
other locations is now doing
vaccines in phase 2, Proctor
said. Why did I find that out
from Walmart and not from
KDHE?
According to the Kansas
vaccine prioritization plan,
phase 2 includes people 65 and
older, high-contact critical care
workers in congregate care
settings, and unvaccinated
Kansans from phase 1. Proctor
says lawmakers arent privy to
how many vaccines the state
is receiving or timelines for
moving into other phases.
Sen. Richard Hilderbrand, a
Galena Republican, chairs the
joint legislative committee on
public health.
Weve stopped requesting that information from the
administration because we
dont get it. Walmart and those
big chains are starting to get
vaccines and no one is telling
us that, he said.
State governments are
responsible for determining how and where vaccines
are distributed, but Kansas
lawmakers say theyre left
out of the loop. The Kansas
Department of Health and
Environment officials admit
they have their own metrics
for determining how vaccines
are allocated across the state,
but theyre not sharing that
information.
Proctor says the press isnt
asking tough questions.
When legislators can corner (administration officials)
and ask tough questions, they
talk about what theyve done,
but not about whats left to
do, Proctor said. We have to
go out of state to independent
agencies to find out how the
state is doing.
The state publishes very
limited details about vaccine
administration on Mondays,
Wednesdays, and Fridays.
The dashboard shows the total
number of vaccines administered and the number received
from the federal government.
It also shows the number of
doses distributed to each county.
As of Feb. 15, the Kelly
administration says Kansas
administered 394,523 doses
of the 575,275 doses the state
received from the federal government. Approximately 10
percent of the states residents
now are vaccinated.
Proctors district includes
Fort Leavenworth, and therefore, a large number of military families and veterans
eligible to receive the vaccine
from the U.S. Department of
Defense and the U.S. Veterans
Administration.
The VA and the U.S.
Department of Defense have
pretty good methods for getting
vaccines out to veterans and
military personnel. The overarching point is they have a
system and a plan, and theyre
executing it. Theyre getting
people vaccinated, Proctor
said. The people who arent
in those groups in my town,
theyre on a list for weeks and
weeks and weeks of time. They
are people in phase 2 who are
eligible and should be vaccinated. When they ask why
their neighbor is vaccinated
and they cant get one, I hate
to have that conversation. Its
because our state government
is inefficient.
The Sentinel, operated by The
Kansas Public Policy Institute,
provided portions of the reporting for this story.
You name it, we print it.
Larry Wittmer gave the
Communion Meditation over
Isaiah 53. This chapter is a
prophesy of our coming Savior.
This prophesy was written
700 years before the birth of
Jesus, and yet every item listed, points directly to him. God
had every detail planned out.
We arent here by accident,
it was all in his plan. He is
100% all powerful. Our 100% all
knowing, creator God. He took
the punishment for our sins,
and it was foretold centuries in
advance.
Pastor Chase Riebel gave the
sermon titled A.C.T, referencing Nehemiah 1. Nehemiah
was a Jew in exile, who worked
his way up to become the King
of Susas cup bearer. When his
brother, Hanani visited and
explained about the state of
Judah, Nehemiah was deeply
moved, he prayed, and turned
it over to God. To advance the
Kingdom of God, we must take
action.
A – Acknowledge Reality
C – Confess Sin
T – Take it to the Lord in
Prayer
Hanani acknowledged reality and told Nehemiah the truth
of Judah. The nation was a disgrace to God. They didnt take
God seriously, and so, the surrounding nations didnt take
Judah seriously and took what
they wanted from them. When
security is taken away, the
family and community break
down. Sometimes you need
an outside perspective to see
the reality. We must measure
reality by Gods standards. Too
many times the church is apathetic. They dont stand up and
act when needed. Nehemiah
stood up! He confessed and took
responsibility for his sins and
the sins of Judah. He prayed to
God about this situation, and
we should follow his example.
Never jump into action without
praying to God, and then wait
for his answer. You can hear
