Weekend marred

BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
WESTPHALIA An Olpe
man was killed and others
seriously injured in two separate traffic crashes that happened within two hours of
each other Saturday in rural
areas of Anderson County.
Fifty-two year-old Roy
Vogts of Olpe was killed when
the vehicle in which he was
riding collided with another
vehicle at the intersection of
1400 Road and Colorado Road
about three miles north of
Westphalia around 9:30 a.m.
A report from the Kansas
Highway Patrol said Vogts
was a passenger in the 2000
Chevrolet S-10 pickup driven eastbound on 1400 Road
by 55 year-old Todd Vogts,
also of Olpe, when the driv-
er failed to yield to a 2005
Chevy Silverado pickup driven northbound on Colorado
Road by 55 year-old Ronald
Jost II of Olathe. Jost and his
passenger, 52 year-old Terri
Jost also of Olathe, were
taken to Anderson County
Hospital with minor injuries.
The report said neither
of the Vogts were wearing
seatbelts when the accident
occurred. Both the Josts were
wearing safety restraints.
The second injury crash
occurred at 11:25 a.m. near
the intersection of Maryland
Road and U.S. 169 southwest
of Welda.
A KHP report said a 2007
Hyundai SUV driven by 22
year-old Shantea NicholasSEE CRASHES ON PAGE 2B
Covid scuttles USD 365 bus service
after drivers sick, quarantined
GARNETT The Covid19 virus cut a new swath
through USD 365 last week,
grounding the districts bus
transportation service after
a number of drivers tested
positive for the infection.
Parents received notification that bus transport would
be shut down Wednesday
through Friday due to several drivers falling ill or having
to be quarantined after having had possible contact.
Due to several bus drivers experiencing illness this
week and/or being quarantined we will not have enough
bus drivers for bus routes,
the notice to district parents
read.
USD 365 Superintendent
Don Blome said drivers and
department attended a safety
meeting one evening previous to the issues, but he said
there was no way to be sure if
that meeting had any connection to the diagnoses. He said
the closure affected about 13
drivers, but not all were positive Covid cases.
District staff said bus service was expected to resume
tomorrow.
Bus drivers as well as all
students and staff follow the
district policy to wear masks
while on buses or indoors at
school. An unrelated off-campus gathering of students

Cheating VOTE?
Unsolicited ballot
requests seem fishy
to local voter
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
WELDA A rural Anderson
County man who is a registered Democrat says he was
mailed four applications to
request mail ballots for next
months election, and that
office staff at one of the senders told him to send in all the
requests in hopes of being able
to vote multiple ballots.
Theyre trying to get you
to cheat, thats what theyre
trying to do, said Jim Stinnett
of rural Welda.
Stinnett said he never
requested the forms they just
showed up in his mailbox and
kept showing up.
Three of the ballot requests
were posted from a Springfield,
Mo., address for a Washington,
D.C.-based
non-profit
called The Center for Voter
Information, an organization
which has gained a wide reputation for confusing voter mailings around the country in various media reports. Stinnett
said he called the organization
to question them.
I said, why did you send me
three of these applications,
Stinnett said, and they said
well, go ahead and send them
all in and vote all of them. They
(election office workers) just
get them and they dont check
them.
No laws exist in Kansas
and most other states preventing the mailing of such
request forms or voter registration forms. The forms
Stinnett received contained
return envelopes addressed to
the Anderson County Clerks
office, which handles county
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 10-20-2020 / DANE HICKS
Welda resident and registered Democrat Jim Stinnett shows four mail ballot request forms he
was mailed in recent weeks, three from the same organization, a move he thinks is designed to
encourage voters to attempt to vote more than one ballot in the upcoming election.
election work.
An impromptu poll of
county Republicans who are
part of the Anderson County
Republican Party email list
found no local GOP members
who had received mail ballot
request forms.
Stinnett said he was given
CVIs telephone number by
a contact in his auto workers union, and that the
woman he spoke with was
concerned with being able
to sway Kansas voters into
supporting Barbara Bollier, a
Democrat candidate for U.S.
Senate running against First
District Congressman Roger
Marshall.
Stinnett said three of the
request forms were mailed to
him by CVI over a period of a
month or so. A fourth was sent
by the Kansas Democratic
Party.
Now, why would they
be sending so many of those
applications for ballots out?,
Stinnett asked. I think they
know exactly what they want
to happen.
CVI officials, contacted by
the Review, disputed the idea
they were trying to bump the
ballot count for Democrat
candidates.
Your accusation is completely bogus, said Tom
Lopach, President and CEO

prior to the Bulldogs football game against Prairie View. Candidates include, front row from left: Cali
Foltz, Abby Reid and Kameron Simpson. Back Row: Dylan Cole, Riley Hedges and Bryar Wight.
WELDA A change in a
30-plus mile gas pipeline
installation project in
Anderson and Franklin
Counties would mean the
old decommissioned pipeline would be left in the
ground instead of extracted, if a federal regulatory
agency agrees with the gas
companys proposal.
Officials with Southern
Star Central Gas Pipeline
last week gave public
notice that the company
planned to amend its local
installation project to
leave the old pipe in the
ground retire in place,
as the process is called in
order to avoid more environmental damage and
to avoid possible damage
to the new pipeline it just
installed by extracting the
old lines.

REMEMBRANCES
GUILFOYLE
NOVEMBER 24, 1921 – OCTOBER 8, 2020
InaBelle (Pete) Thompson,
of Independence, Kansas
passed away October 8, 2020 at
her home surrounded by
family. She
was 98 years
old.
Due
to
COVID, a private family
funeral mass
was
held
Thompson
October 17,
2020.
Pete was born on a small
farm north of Westphalia,
Kansas in Anderson County in
1921. She was the daughter to
Carl J. and Mary (Plunkett)
Plain. She graduated from
Westphalia High School. In
1942 she married the love of her
life, Charles (Bud) Thompson
in Los Angeles, California.
They were married 69 years
before Buds death in 2011.
After World War II, and after
her husband completed college,
they returned to Westphalia
to raise their growing family.
Bud went to work in the State
Bank of Westphalia, which
they would later purchase. In
1964 she and her husband purchased the Peoples State Bank
of Cherryvale, Kansas. In 1977
Bud retired and they settled in
Independence, Kansas.
Pete and her family have
been members of the St.
Francis Xavier Church in
Cherryvale, Kansas and St.
Andrews Catholic Church in
Independence for the last 56
years.
Petes life was dedicated
to her family and faith. She
and her husband raised five
children. She was a wonderful wife, mother, grandmother,
great-grandmother and mother-in-law. Her family and close
friends admired her for her
caring ways, from babysitting,
tending to sick children and
making cinnamon rolls for her
neighbors. Her faith in God
was unwavering to the end,
even after losing her youngest
son to cancer when he was 30
years old and her oldest son
to cancer at the age of 50. She
never missed an opportunity
to try and make the lives of
her family happier and more
fulfilled. She lived a life of a
Christian servant.
Those who preceded her in
death was her husband, two
sons: Stephen M. Thompson
and Terry D. Thompson. She is
survived by two sons: David and
wife Sharon, of Independence,
KS., and Bill and wife Belinda,
of Fort Scott, KS., and daughter
Mary Thompson-ORourke and
husband Joe, of Independence,
KS., 10 grandchildren and 17
great-grandchildren.
Pallbearers and honorary
pallbearers were her 10 grandchildren: Jason Thompson,
Brooke Kopp, Megan Batrez,
Chris Thompson, Kara Brodell,
Alicia
Thompson-Pagano,
Stephanie Thompson-Rush,
Nicole, Madeline and Ian
ORourke.

October 13, 2020 at Stormont
Vail Hospital. The family will

the Rev. Robert M Ziegler.
Memorials are suggested to
the Trinity Lutheran Church

Herman was born on
December 19, 1937, in Scipio,
Kansas on the family farm, to
Wilhelm and Anna (Dieken)
Ackmann. He went to
grade school at East Scipio.
Graduation from Garnett High
School in 1955.
He was a proud 2nd generation German descent to make a
life in the U.S. where he learned
the ropes of hard work in farm
life. He was employed at Boeing
in Wichita, Garnett Ford and a
Service Manager at Ford, in
Garnett and Ottawa. Later in
his adult life, he farmed, raised
cattle and was a Field Manager
for Vigortone Ag Products, for
almost 50 years. He was also a
contracted cattle buyer.
He married the love of
his life, Dolores Kuntze on
February 2, 1958, at Zion
Lutheran Church, in Vassar,
Kansas. Herman & Dolores are
members of Trinity Lutheran
Church in Atchison.
Herman enjoyed spending
time with his loving wife of 62
years, family and friends.
He also enjoyed spending time
at the family farm, hunting,
fishing, and watching all the
grandkids and great grandkids
growing up and playing sports.
He is survived by his children, Peggy and Steve Lackey,
Greg Ackmann, Julie and
Oliver Liebermann, all of

brother, Henry Ackmann of
Garnett, Kansas.
He was preceded in death by
the love of his life on Sept 21st,
2020, his parents, and a sister
Hilda Dossman.
Will it be truth or power?
I recently read an article
written by John Whitehead
in which he compares truth
and power. One of the comparisons he drew was the
meeting between Pilate and
Jesus. Just prior to this
Pilate had ordered Jesus
flogged and Jesus stood
before Pilate with his back
ripped open and bleeding.
Pilate said, Dont you know
I have the power either to free
you or crucify you? Jesus
answered, You would have
no power over me if it were
not given you from above.
Whitehead said Jesus spoke
truth to power.
In order to understand the
situation these two men were
in we must examine truth and
power. In John 18:38, Pilate
asks Jesus, What is truth?
Webster defines truth as agreement with reality. It is interesting that Pilate makes three
attempts to free Jesus, telling
the crowd, I find no basis for
a charge against him. (John
18:38) Pilate then washed his
hands in front of the crowd
and said, I am innocent of
this mans blood, it is your
responsibility. The truth is
that Jesus was not really the
man on trial Pilate was. Pilate
stood face to face with the King
of kings and yielded to a mob to
protect his position.
Webster defines power as
having authority. Jesus told
Pilate, You would have no
power over me if it were not

age 63, of Garnett, Kansas,
passed away
on Tuesday,
October 13,
2020.
John, better known
as Johnny,
was born on
March
26,
Shields
1957, in Elgin,
Illinois,
the
son
of Raymond and Florence
(Hermreck) Shields. John
moved to Garnett from northern Illinois in 1966, with his
family. He attended Holy
Angels School and then
Garnett High School, graduating in 1975. While at GHS, John
was part of the school newspaper and yearbook staff. He
was a longtime member of Holy
Angels parish.
Following school, John lived
in Pueblo, Colorado for a time
before returning to Garnett
where he began working for
the City of Garnett Public
Works. John then began working as a garment cutter for
Warners Manufacturing. He
worked there for most of two
decades, until the closing of the
factory. John found local fame
as the overnight clerk at Bills
Quick Shop south of Garnett.
Customers could always count
on a cheerful greeting and
Johnnys willingness to discuss the latest sporting news.
Johnny was an avid sports
fan, and knew all the latest
stats on all his favorite teams,
KU Jayhawks, St. Louis
Cardinals, Chiefs and Royals.
Perhaps the only thing Johnny
liked more than sports was
music. He was an avid follower of several forms of music,
but country rock topped them
all. He loved to tell stories and
loved to laugh, his quick wit
brought joy to so many. His
loves included Chevrolets,
baseball, his faithful border
collie, Ruby; his large circle of
friends and his family, including his many cousins, near and
far. These were the things that
defined Johnny.
He was preceded in death by
his father, Raymond Shields in
1964; and his mother, Florence
Shields in 2012.
Johnny is survived by
three brothers, Bill (Karol)
Shields of Austin, Texas; Mike
(Kathy) Shields of Manhattan,
Kansas; Norm (Debbie) Shields
of Greeley, Kansas; three sisters, Rita (Rick) Skillman of
Garnett, Kansas; Kathy (Larry)
Spencer of Belton, Missouri;
Laurie (Pat) Marmon of
Garnett; six nephews, Matt
Skillman, Wesley Skillman,
Ryan Spencer, Kyle Marmon,
Aaron Marmon, Marcus
Marmon; two nieces, Valerie
Noack and Kayla Shields.
A Celebration of Johnnys
Life will be held in March of
2021 (Johns birthday), including a memorial service. Hoping
that a safer, perhaps post-pandemic world, will allow full
participation. Contributions
may be made in his name to St.
Rose Catholic School.

given to you from above. Who
was in the position of power
here? I believe Jesus was. Yes,
Pilate turned Jesus over to the
mob to crucify but not long
after this he fell into disfavor
and was soon banished.
That brings me to this
question. What matters to
you and to me? Is it power or
truth? Power is more glamorous, more popular. Everyone
wants authority. We feel we
can change things if we have
authority. Then there is truth.
It is often burdensome without authority, many times it is
only the view of the minority.
It always seems to be better to
be like the powerful leader not
the humble servant. So what
is it power or truth? Someone
once said, the proof is in the
pudding. Jesus sits at the right
hand of God. History records
Pilate as a failure.

OPINION
Obama dunnit
Recently declassified documents from
Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe
offer overwhelming evidence that Barack
Obama tried to engineer the first coup in
American political history by removing Donald
Trump as president.
Although documents suggest Hillary Clinton
cooked up the Russia Collusion hoax to misdirect attention away from her email scandal,
Obama approved the scheme, and only he had
the authority to set the foreign and domestic
machinery in motion to achieve its goal. When
the plot failed and Trump was elected, the conspirators turned their efforts to removing the
duly-elected president.
Only a president can pull the levers at
the CIA and FBI to achieve nefarious aims.
During Watergate, Richard Nixon played the
two against each other; using CIA to block
FBIs investigation,
citing national security. The resulting
obstruction of justice
was the impeachable
offense that would
have removed him
from office had he
not resigned. In contrast, Obama synchronized the two;
the FBI accepting CIA
referrals for investigation and prosecution,
though each knew the
road led to a dead end.
Russia Collusion was
a figment of Hillary
Clintons imagination, much like the
vast, right-wing conspiracy she claimed
threatened her husbands presidency.
Apart from seeking justice for the seditionists it is, after all, illegal to try to overthrow
the government Americans in general who
esteem the Constitution and Trump supporters
in particular should pause and humorously
reflect on the absurdity of this scandal. This
was truly a D.C version of The Gang That
Couldnt Shoot Straight.
Obama, Clinton and their flunkies Brennan,
Clapper, Lynch, Yates, Comey, Mueller, et al,

challenger to their Realm, they ham-handedly
tried to overthrow him and got caught doing
so. Easy to see how most of these incompetents nearly blundered us into war with North
Korea, ransomed our national security for $150
billion in palleted cash to Iran, and cowered
behind the Red Line in Syria.
But what of the role of the second-in-command of these Keystone Cops? Joe Biden, the
senile, place-holding 2020 presidential nominee of his party; The Extorter of Ukrainians
(SOB, he got fired), has become the Hogans
Heroes Sgt. Schultz of this gang recently (I
see NOTHING….I know NOTHING). When
will someone paraphrase the famous Watergate
question posed by Senator Howard Baker and
ask What did the vice-president know and
when did he know it?
The Watergate memories abound, but that
scandal pales in comparison to Obamagate.
This was an attempted coup. Imagine the
unshirted Hell that would have erupted if
the political parties in this drama had been
reversed. Not surprisingly, the corrupt media
is disinterested in the Pulitzer Prizes available
this time around. There are no more Woodward
and Bernsteins.
We have two hopes left that justice can be
meted out. The first is John Durhams snailspaced investigation probing the hoax and
its perpetrators. Hopefully a grand jury can
squeeze the Little Fish into giving up The Big
Fish.
The second is November 3rd.

I think this is very simple. Start wearing your
mask everywhere you go and start social distancing if youre in public. If you go to church,
have people wear a mask, take their temperatures and social distance. Thats how you get
people to come back to church.
Joe Biden says we should train cops to shoot
criminals in the leg instead of in the torso and
maybe killing them. Gee Joe, why not just train
them to shoot the guns out of their hands like
the Lone Ranger used to do? And some people
are actually going to vote for this guy. Wow.
I am a person thats been putting in the Phone
Forum about wearing masks. There are over
80 million cases in the U.S. now and still growing. Again for the stupid ignorant people in
Garnett that dont wear masks and protect others to help prevent this. Although I wore a mask
everywhere I went and others didnt, I still
came down with it. My head pounded so hard
for four weeks, I couldnt breathe, my chest felt
like it was going to explode. I had fever, the doctors gave me strong steroids. I wish the plague
on no one. I am a victim, I pray youre not one
too. Wear a mask. Amen.
Hey Hicks, why do you print garbage and BS
on your front page that mask counties are
getting worse? Thats a lie. Its cause people
aint wearing masks. Maybe you ought to get
on Facebook and go to the Anderson County
fire management and see what Dr. Belcher
said from Garnett. Arizona dropped 57 percent
because they started wearing masks. Im tired
of you inbreds.

No, this isnt the nastiest election ever
Are you tired of relentless attack ads in
which candidates rip opponents on health
care, the economy, the deficit, taxes, terrorism, and family values?
Had it with political commercials that
use grainy, slow-motion video with twisted expressions to make opponents look bad
enough to scare small children? Sick of millions in special-interest dollars poured into
campaigns while infrastructure, schools, and
social programs suffer?
Fed up with hearing how the other guy is
against children, seniors, teachers, schools,
term limits, crime, Medicare, Medicaid, education, and the environment?
Unfortunately, its not a new phenomenon.
It was actually worse in decades past, as elections from years ago were filthy enough to
make even todays campaign managers blush.
The media saturation of today was not the
issue in the nineteenth century, a time before
television and the Internet. In those days, candidates and their supporters used editorials,
political cartoons, and pamphlets to pound
their opponents into submission. Small-town
newspapers were just as dirty as big-city tabloids, ripping candidates for anything and
everything.
Even the earliest American Presidential
campaigns were rough. In 1800, incumbent
John Adams squared off against his VicePresident, Thomas Jefferson, who had the
second-highest number of votes in the 1796
campaign. In that era, the runner-up in the
Presidential election became Vice-President,
a practice that was abolished with the Twelfth
Amendment in 1804.
Though the two men were former friends,
GUEST COMMENTARY
TOM EMERY HISTORICAL RESEARCHER
few Presidential races had such acrimony.
Adams supporters claimed if Jefferson were
elected, murder, robbery, rape, adultery and
incest will be openly taught and practiced
and voters should pick God and a religious
President over Jeffersonand no God.
In turn, one of Jeffersons top backers published a pamphlet calling Adams a hideous,
hermaphroditical character, which has neither the force and firmness of a man, nor the
gentleness or sensibility of a woman.
Jefferson prevailed, and a petulant Adams
chose not to attend the inauguration. It would
be years before the men would repair their
friendship.
Alhough the nation enjoyed a brief time of
political harmony dubbed the Era of Good
Feelings in the late 1810s and early 1820s,
that came to a crashing end with the bitter
1824 Presidential campaign, in which John
Quincy Adams edged Andrew Jackson in a
controversial ending decided in the House
of Representatives. Jackson supporters
screamed that a back-room, corrupt bargain
was cut to get Adams in.
That rancor spilled over into the 1828 campaign, when Adams and Jackson faced off
again in what may have been the dirtiest
Presidential campaign ever. Adams supporters focused on Jacksons marriage, as he had
famously not legally married his wife, Rachel,
in 1791. That was because she had not officially divorced her first husband, a legal snafu
that Jackson, an attorney, should have verified.
Though the divorce was later finalized and
they properly married in 1794, the scandal
followed Jackson around, and remained a key
issue in 1828. Rachel died weeks after the election, and Jackson blamed opponents for her
loss.
While the Adams people hammered away,
Old Hickory responded in kind, claiming
that Adams had provided women for the czar
of Russia. Many historians dismiss Jacksons
charges while citing the obvious evidence that
Jackson had, in fact, lived in bigamy with
Rachel.
In some cases, Presidential candidates have
become directly involved in the mudslinging.
Jackson was known to write to supportive
editors, giving them tips on how to combat
opposition attacks while giving them material
for their own assaults.
Though he is the nations most beloved
President today, Abraham Lincoln was reviled
by opponents, who ripped him as a baboon,

Dems testy that Amy Coney Barrett wont play doctor
Amy Coney Barrett has accomplished many
things in her career. Becoming an authority
or a policy maker on health care isnt one of
them.
At Notre Dame, she was a professor at
the law school, not at the Eck Institute for
Global Health. Shes written for the Cornell
Law Review, not The New England Journal
of Medicine. Shes up to replace the late Ruth
Bader Ginsburg at the Supreme Court, not
Dr. Anthony Fauci at the National Institute of
Allergy and Infectious Diseases.
No one would have guessed it, though,
from listening to Democratic senators on the
first day of her much-anticipated confirmation
hearings. They acted as if Barrett has been
nominated to become the nations health care
czar, responsible for everything from the fate
of Obamacare to the countrys coronavirus
response.
This tack underlined political themes that
Democrats are hammering home in the final
weeks of the election, but they have little or
nothing to do with Amy Coney Barrett, a judge
seeking to sit on the highest court in the land.
The proximate cause of the Democratic assault
on health care is the imminent arrival of
an anti-Obamacare lawsuit in the Supreme
Court. The Democratic theory is that Barrett
is being sent on a not-so-secret mission to
destroy the health care law. Sen. Dick Durbin
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
of Illinois says that this is her assignment.
Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse of Rhode Island says
that she is a judicial torpedo aimed at the
Affordable Care Act.
The lawsuit emanates from a prior Supreme
Court ruling on Obamacare. To keep the law
from being struck down over its individual
mandate, Chief Justice John Roberts reinterpreted the penalty for not complying with
the mandate as a tax. Subsequently, Congress
zeroed out the tax. Now, Texas and other
states are contending that this tax that no one
pays cannot truly be considered a tax, and
must be struck down — as well as the rest of the
Okay so the tacky portable flashing sign on the
square by the jail is an eyesore and whoever is
programming it is doing a poor job. You cant
law.
Its hard to see how the suit succeeds.
One hurdle is standing. The plaintiffs need to
demonstrate a harm, which isnt easy when
the offending provision is a tax or penalty of
zero. Even if the Court throws out the penalty,
it would have to conclude that this unenforced
provision is so central to the ACA that the
rest of the law has to go, too. This would be a
stretch.
If the Democratic case against Barrett isnt
landing any blows, it is telling, nonetheless. As
always, progressives dont view the Supreme
Court as a neutral body devoted to interpreting the Constitution and the law as written,
but as a supra legislature that should protect
and advance their policy goals.
Barrett has a more modest and appropriate
view of the Courts role. After getting lectures
for hours about the benefits of the ACA, she
rightly said in her opening statement: The
policy decisions and value judgments of government must be made by the political branches elected by and accountable to the People.
The public should not expect courts to do so,
and courts should not try.
In short, if she wanted to create health care
policy, she would have gotten into a different
line of work.

What about the city
airport funding?
Here is clarification for any misunderstanding of the recent news that the Garnett Airport
received CARES Act funding for the reconstruction of the fueling apron project. The fueling
apron project has been high on the list of the
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) projects
that need to be addressed, but has stalled for
quite some time by the city due to cost.
All FAA project grants dealing with airport
improvements are always funded 90 percent by
the FAA with the grantee (City of Garnett) to pay
10 percent of the improvement project costs. The
FAA earmarks an amount of money for each airport across the United States for airport projects
that could be subject for allocation under their
grant programs. This amount to be tentatively
allocated was an estimated $400,000. If an airSEE AIRPORT ON PAGE 5A

H.L. Maloney mystery token found
One of my latest finds is
this Mystery Token. As you
look at this token, you will
notice that there is no date, no
business or city/town name
on it.
The only clue I have is the
name H.L. Maloney. There
are two ladies doing some
research for me and here are
their results thus far. This
token may have belonged to
Harry Maloney, who owned
and operated an early Barber
Shop in Greeley, Ks.
There were thousands of
small stores and businesses
all over the United States who
used trade tokens to promote
trade and extend credit to customers.
The era of 1870 through
1920, marked the highest use
of trade tokens in the United
States.

port chooses not to request and
utilize their earmarked grant
funds, the funding can be given
away by the FAA to other airports in other cities. Because
the FAA wants communities to
continue to improve and maintain their airport facilities, it
is important that a city plan
for maintenance and improvements and uses this FAA and
other KDOT grant programs. If
our city passes up the opportunity, it just means another city
will benefit instead.
The City of Garnett submitted grant applications for the
fueling apron improvements,
as well as the crack sealing of
major cracks in the airport runway, for which late last year
we received a separate Kansas
Department of TransportationAviation Division grant that is
also a 90/10 grant. Therefore,
the City must pay 10 percent of
the shared cost. Recently, the
FAA announced that it would
fund one hundred percent
(100%) of the costs of the fueling apron and taxiway project
through their grant program.
This was announced due to
the FAA receiving CARES Act
funding with the specific purpose to be used to help airports
across the country. It has been
implied by some individuals in
the community that the City
of Garnett is the recipient of
CARES Act funding and instead
of providing it to local citizens
for their everyday needs it is
being spent at the airport. This
is not accurate.
In addition, the pavement in
front of the City-owned hangar and maintenance shop are
not eligible for grant funding
but are connected to the other
improvements. The City is
responsible for 100% of that
cost of this repair at an amount
of $17,471.90. Our 10% share of
the runway crack-sealing project is $4,496.73, out of the total
$44,967.30 project.
The grants awarded for this
5A
LOCAL
project, which will reconstruct
the airports fueling apron,
also the paved area in front
of the Citys hangar and shop,
mill and overlay the taxiway,
and crack seal the runway is
a combined total project of
$547,910.29. It will be completed
at a cost to the City of Garnett
and our community members
in the amount of $21,968.63. This
is four percent (4%) of the total
project cost, much less than the
$70,515.64 the City was planning
on needing to spend as our local
match on these projects within
the next couple of years. This is
a savings to taxpayers of over
two-thirds the expected cost.
I hope this helps clarify any
misconceptions about the funding of these improvements at
the airport. I invite anyone who
would like to, to feel free to
come visit me at the airport
to see what is happening and
learn about your city airport.

anti-Lincoln political cartoons
were overtly racist, blasting
his stance against slavery and
portraying him as a dunce or
imbecile, complete with silly
hats and clothing resembling a
court jester.
It was common of the era,
as campaigns and cartoons
lambasted candidates with
offensive racial depictions and
sometimes portrayed them as
animals or monsters. The manhood of candidates was often
questioned, and cartoonists
drew men in dresses to further
diminish their masculinity.
Political rallies of the past
were equally rough-and-tumble, as drunkenness and fistfights among spectators were
common.
An illegitimate child was the
center of the 1884 Presidential
campaign as Democrat Grover
Cleveland, a former New York
governor, had a son with a
woman with a checkered past
from his days back in Buffalo.
Though the true parentage
of the child was uncertain,
Cleveland claimed responsibility, believing that he, a bachelor, had less to lose than married friends who had also been
with the woman.
Republicans seized on the
situation, chanting, Ma, ma,
wheres my pa? Gone to the
White House, ha, ha, ha!
Cleveland voters fired back at
the Republican nominee, former Secretary of State James
Blaine, with their own ditty,
Blaine, Blaine, James G.
Blaine! Continental liar from
the state of Maine!
Cleveland later met and
married Frances Folsom in the
White House in 1886, a union
that captured the imagination
of the nation. The campaign
scandal did not hurt his popularity, as Cleveland is one
of only two men to win the
popular vote in three or more
elections (Franklin Delano
Roosevelt is the other).
Congressional races in
the era were just as bitter as
Presidential runs. In southern Illinois in 1866, John A.
Logan, a candidate for an
at-large House seat, was targeted by the little Chester Picket
Guard, which also trashed sitting Republican Gov. Richard
Oglesby. Though both Logan
and Oglesby were Civil War
heroes, the Democratic Picket
Guard teed off in style.
That paper hoped to protect
the state, burdened by such a
dishonest, radical, lecherous,
blasphemous and drunken,
dirty, beastly thing as Dick
Oglesby from that low, vulgar, dirty, and hypocritical
Logan. Maggots would sicken
on him.

Bulldogs drops 4th straight, Burlington rolls
BURLINGTON – The three
game winning streak to open
the season is a distant memory as the Anderson County
Bulldogs dropped their 4th
straight decision in lopsided
fashion last Friday on the road
to Burlington, 54-14.
The game started slow
for the offenses as the score
was still tied at zero until
Burlington finally hit pay dirt
with a 4 yard touchdown run
with 2:49 remaining in the first
quarter and after the 2-point
conversion they led 8-0.
It would take just over 2
minutes before Burlington
would strike again, this time
a 28 yard touchdown through
the air to take a 14-0 lead with
just 33 seconds left in the first
quarter.
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 10-20-2020 / DANE HICKS
Anderson County running back Fisher Galey is being pulled to the ground by a Burlington defender on
Friday night. Burlington won easily, downing the Bulldogs 54-14.
Vikings come up short against Uniontown
UNIONTOWN – The Central
Heights football team traveled
to Uniontown on Friday night
and after a first half defensive
battle, the Vikings faltered
down the stretch as Uniontown
hung on for a 25-14 victory.
Central
Heights
and
Uniontown each scored once
and connected on their 2-point
conversions in the first half to
head into the locker room with
the score knotted at 8.
After Uniontown opened up
the second half scoring with a
field goal, the Vikings would
answer with a touchdown
to take a 14-11 lead with 3:59
remaining.
The score would remain
that way until the 7:57 mark of
the fourth quarter. Uniontown
would barrel their way in for
a touchdown to take an 18-14
lead.
The Vikings would falter
the rest of the way offensively,
allowing Uniontown to tack on
a late touchdown to put the
game out of reach.
Viking boys finish 2nd at league
ESKRIDGE – Central Heights
traveled to Mission Valley
High School in Eskridge for
the Flint Hills League meet
and won a handful of medals
including a 2nd place finish by
the boys overall.
The top varsity finisher was
Taryn Compton (3rd place,
21:32).
For the boys, both Luke
Cotter (5th) and David Craft

Sonic
Coach Troy Prosser was
more than pleased with how
his teams competed.
Yesterday was a great day
for a run and the kids did an
unbelievable job putting it
all together. I can't say how
excited I was to see how well
everyone performed and the
fact that 15 of the kids came
out with personal best times
shows how focused they really
were. Melaney was excellent

Riley finished 4th at the
Pioneer League Meet last

AC boys finished 4th overall.
Top Dog of the Week wins a $10 Sonic gift card and our
special recognition vehicle window decal. Watch for
them on the road, and each week in
in the middle school girls 2
Mile so the middle school boys
had to keep that going. Connor
won the League title with Cody,
Owen, and Aydan all placing in
the top seven making the boys
team League Champions for
the third straight season. On
the high school side, Taryn has
just been amazing this season
and had her highest League
finish in her career. The varsity boys also had huge improvements across the board once
again being led by the seniors.
Luke, David, and Dakota all
found an extra spark individually which helped the boys
team to a 2nd place finish,
Prosser stated.
The future looks bright as the
middle school boys finished
first overall, including 4 of the
top 7 finishers, and the girls
had two runners that finished
in the top 11.

column on the ensuing kickoff
as Braden Blaufuss returned

than a second to play before

savings of the change would
be, but officials did say the
amendment to the plan would
still require work from contractors in the local area.
Retiring in place is a common industry practice and still
requires a lot of work, said
Tyler McClure, communications specialist with Southern
Star in Evansville, IN.
Although the newly proposed
retirement may be a smaller
scale project than excavating
(the old lines), many contractors will remain in the area
until work is complete.
The project to install a
new gas line between Welda
and Ottawa began last winter,
bringing some 300 contractors
to the local area to work the
estimated 141 million project.
The initial plan was to install
the new line then remove two
old lines built in the 1940s-1950s
with the second phase lasting
most of 2021.
The two old lines dont
occupy the same right-of-way
in most places, McClure said,
involving additional excavation and environmental
impact. In places where the
new line cross the old lines, he
said, workers run the risk of
damaging the new line thats
just been installed in excavating the old ones.
McClure said if the
Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission approves the
change, the retirement in place
project is expected to begin
this February. It would entail
more than just abandoning the
lines McClure said certain
areas of the old lines would
be cut into sections, capped
and filled with grout in areas
such as water body crossings,
highways, etc. He said the
company has identified seven
2021 projects related to the line
installation which will cost an
estimated $31.5 million.

House, the next way voters
themselves can take control
of the Kansas Supreme Court
is by voting to not retain the
out-of-control judges who vote
for abortion.
Save The Babies, a pro-life
Kansas group, has put together
the list of overreaching judges
that voters need to vote NO
on. That list includes for the
Kansas Supreme Court Judge
Rosen; for the Kansas Court
of Appeals Judges Atcheson,
Arnold-Burger and Warner.
A yes vote will save the prolife judges on the Kansas Court
of Appeals Judges Bruns and
Gardner.
A message from Kansas voters needs to be sent to the
Kansas Supreme Court and
Court of Appeals that we are
watching and their rulings
need to match what Kansans
value and that is life.
Make your voice heard Nov.
3 vote no on out-of-control
judges and help save thousands of babies lives in the
future.

Davis of Independence, Mo.,
was northbound on U.S. 169
when the vehicle tried to turn
onto Maryland Road due to a
highway closure on U.S. 169.
When doing so, the driver
apparently lost control of the
vehicle which entered the east
ditch, struck a sign and came
back onto Maryland where it
hit a 2016 Jeep Renegade head
on which was southbound on
Maryland.
The driver of the Jeep, 19
year-old Rian Gere of Baldwin
City, was wearing a seatbelt
and suffered no apparent injuries, according to the report.
Nicholas-Davis and a passenger in her car, 30 year-old
Sierra Negrete-Boyd also of
Independence, were taken to
Anderson County Hospital
with suspected serious injuries. A third passenger, 28
year-old Brittani Orcutt of
Independence, suffered no
apparent injuries. Nicolas
Davis and Orcutt reported wearing their seatbelts.
Negrete-Boyd did not wear a
restraint.
Southern Star Central Gas Pipeline, Inc.
(Southern Star) is an interstate natural gas pipeline company headquartered in Owensboro, KY
and engaged in the business of providing
gas transportation and storage services in the
central and western United States. Southern
Star filed an application with the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC) under Docket
No. CP21-2-000 to authorize a scope change
for the Lines DS and DT Replacement Project
solely for the purpose of allowing Lines DT and
DS to be abandoned entirely in place, rather
than primarily by removal. The two pipelines
proposed to be abandoned in place are located
between existing Welda and Ottawa compressor stations in Anderson and Franklin Counties,
Kansas. Members of the general public who
desire to become involved in the FERCs
proceedings may refer to the pamphlet entitled
An Interstate Natural Gas Pipeline on My

of The Center For Voter Information in
Washington, D.C. No one at our organization
would ever say such a thing.
Lopach said CVI is a nonprofit and nonpartisan group aimed at helping registered voters in
Kansas vote safely during the Covid-19 pandemic. He said CVI only sends vote-by-mail ballot
applicationsnot ballots.
In the rare cases when a voter inadvertently
sends in more than one application for a ballot,
election officials around the country only send
back one ballot per voter.
But CVIs activities have been highly suspect
in other areas of the country. A September article in the Kansas City Star details how CVI has
been criticized by election officials in various
states for sending ballot requests to residents
who arent actually eligible to vote, or sending voter registration forms to people who are
already registered. Those moves have made
conflicting and misleading information about
the 2020 election even worse, those officials say.
The Star article said CVI in June was forced
to recall 80,000 invalid vote-by-mail request
forms in North Carolina, where laws require
requesters to fill out all the fields of a ballot
application. CVI later mailed out 80,000 blank
applications in North Carolina.
Concerns over mail voting have been particularly at issue this year, after nine states
and the District of Columbia said they would
conduct their elections with ballots mass-mailed

to all names on their voter registration lists in
order to avoid in-person voting and the risks
of contracting Covid-19. Republicans in particular have sounded off that voter lists could be
extremely out of date and could include hundreds or thousands of voters who might have
died or moved away without notice to their
election office. Mass mailing of ballots to those
addresses could allow bogus ballots to be voted
and counted by those hoping to cheat.
Various media covering CVI activities have
said election offices across the country have
received trays full of duplicate mail ballot
requests, and though ballots are supposed be
checked against registered voter lists, fears exist
that inundated office workers might allow more
than one ballot per voter to slip into the vote
count.
CVIs website says it is a non-partisan
non-profit organization dedicated to helping
voting-age people participate in elections. While
its online media center promotes causes like
development of voting communities for women,
transgenders, Latino and African American voters, its website ignores conventionally conservative voting blocks like those aimed at gun rights,
pro-business economic policies and restrictions
on abortion.
The organizations website lists no donors
or funding organizations, saying it places an
extremely high priority on protecting the personal information of its donors regardless of the
amount of donation.

Up next – Community Heart & Soul
On October 13, Garnett residents attended Who Lives,
Works and Plays in Our
Community? This involves
reaching out to residents to
first identify the big, broad
groups in our community such
as service and civic clubs,
government, education, faithbased groups, healthcare, etc.
Once the broad groups in
Garnett have been identified,
Growing Garnett will identify
the smaller formal and informal subgroups in our community as well as someone who
can connect us to each group.
The Leadership Team will
be reaching out to Garnetts
residents to help identify the
groups and connectors in our
city.
Community Heart & Soul is
field tested and built for small
cities and towns. It is not a
typical planning process in
that it is done face-to-face, resident-to-resident and involves
making decisions as a community.
A Community Heart & Soul
process can help change the
way a community does business, resulting in more robust
economic development plans,
municipal plans, comprehensive plans, community development plans, and helping nonprofits work better together.
New leaders and volunteers
emerge because we are involving everyone in the process, not

just the usual suspects, the
movers and shakers, those
who sit on boards, or those
who belong to organizations.
It is important that we include
residents who are hidden and
missing and those who dont
know or dont feel that they
belong or have a seat at the
table when decisions are made.
Everyone is an important part
of the Community Heart & Soul
process.
Communities who have gone
through a Heart & Soul process
have found that trust is built by
bridging divides and focusing
on what residents have in common with one another rather
than their differences. By finding out what is important to the
residents of a community and
what they value, downtowns
are revitalized, history and culture are honored, and pride is
restored.
Community Heart & Soul is
currently working with over 80
communities in 19 states and
anticipates working with close
to 100 communities by the end
of this year.
Please join the Growing
Garnett Community Heart &
Soul Leadership Team from
noon to 1:00 pm on Tuesday,
October 20 for the Spreading
the Word About Heart & Soul
in Our Community virtual
workshop.
This workshop will help us
explain about what Community
Heart & Soul is and how it can
benefit Garnett.
The Leadership Team is a
group of local volunteers. We
are not a city-appointed board
and are not requesting funding
from the City of Garnett for
this project.
For more information,
please call 785-433-5599.

2 FALL EDITION
Special to The Anderson County Review – October 20, 2020
5 must-do home improvements for fall
(BPT) – The average American home has
nine DIY jobs that need to be tackled,
according to a study conducted by Porch.
com. Fall is the perfect time to give your
home a little TLC and start checking off
projects on your to-do list. Here are five
easy fall fixups to get your home ready for
the upcoming season:
* Paint the front door – Nothing gives
your home an instant face lift like a freshly
painted front door. Painted exterior doors
can boost curb appeal, add character and
provide a trendy but tasteful first impression of your home. Choose a color that will
make your front door pop and improve the
look of your homes exterior in less than an
afternoon.
* Repair holes in the drywall – Whether
the damage is small from a picture frame
nail or anchor, or as large as doorknob damage, DAPs new Eclipse Rapid Wall Repair
Patches make repairing holes in drywall
so fast and easy, anyone can do it. DAPs
Eclipse provides a durable, mess-free repair
that requires no spackling, sanding or additional tools – simply patch the damage and
its ready to paint immediately, allowing
projects to be finished in minutes, rather
than hours or days.
* Freshen up the landscaping – Planting
new flowers or shrubbery is an easy way to
bring pops of fall colors to the front of your
home. Keep it simple and pick plants in one
or two hues that contrast with the exterior
of your home. Regular mowing and tending
to weeds will always help your front yard
look its best.
* Seal window and doors – Small gaps
and cracks around windows and doors
can allow cold air and rain to make its
way inside. Keep your home protected and
warm during the fall and winter seasons

by replacing worn exterior caulk with
DAP Dynaflex Ultra Advanced Exterior
Sealant. Dynaflex Ultra uses DAPs exclusive WeatherMax Technology to create
a waterproof and weatherproof seal that
wont crack or discolor over time.
* Replace the furnace filter – Dirty filters
mean your furnace will likely work harder. Regularly changing the filters in your
central air and heating system can significantly improve its efficiency and longevity,
while easing the pressure on your wallet.
In most homes, filters should be changed
monthly during the heating season. You
should also have your furnace serviced
periodically to make sure it is working
properly and to help avoid larger repairs
later on when the temperature drops.

Multigenerational living: DIY and home improvements for the expanding family
(BPT) – The American household is evolving.
Traditional family households with parents
and children up to 18 have transformed into
a mix of various generations. The coronavirus pandemic has accelerated the growth
of multigenerational households, including
adults with boomerang children living at
home after college, or aging parents living
with them rather than at assisted living
facilities.
While each household has its personal
reasons for opting for a multigenerational
structure, it's a trend growing across cultures. One in five Americans live in a multigenerational household, according to the
Pew Research Center, which defines multigenerational living as a home that includes
two or more adult generations, or including
grandparents and grandchildren younger
than 25. As quarantine and social-distancing
impacts continue, the number of families
choosing multigenerational living is poised
to grow.
As the pandemic has shifted the way a
home functions in multiple ways, more people are putting time into home-improvement
projects that help a home function well for
everyone who lives there. This is particularly important for people transitioning
to multigenerational households. Consider
three steps to help improve multigenerational living:
Step 1: Expand living space
When someone moves in, it's amazing
how what used to feel like ample space can
suddenly seem very cramped. Space becomes
a premium and with lack of adequate space
to read, watch TV or simply sit to rest, home
stress levels can rise fast. That's why you
may want to consider ways to add common
spaces, or transform the space you do have
to accommodate more people.
Finishing a basement is a smart option
if you have financial means. You might also
finish attic spaces or add a shed with seating
and electricity. Stylish room partitions or
curtains can provide privacy and the feeling
of a room if you don't have money to invest in
a larger home-improvement project. Finally,
consider refreshing outdoor spaces with
seating spots grouped throughout the yard
to expand the property's livable space and
encourage people to enjoy the outdoors.
Step 2: Add a bathroom without
costly demo
When the number of people increases in a
home, the bathroom becomes a hot commodity. Whether it's to put a bathroom closer
to an aging parent's bedroom or simply add
a powder room in a nontraditional location to expand resources, consider affordable options such as macerating toilets and
drain pumps from Saniflo. These above-floor
plumbing options allow you to add a bathroom where no conventional, below-floor
plumbing exists, so there's no need to bust
through concrete floors and compromise a
home's integrity.
This was the case for designer and
home-dcor blogger Kristine Abram who
dreamed of adding a bathroom in the basement of her Ohio farmhouse-style home for
her kids to use. Unfortunately, the slope
of the land would not allow her to build
a conventional bathroom with below-floor
drainage. She researched alternatives and
found the Saniaccess 2: a 1/2-horsepower
macerator pump system used to install a
half-bathroom (toilet and sink) up to 15 feet
below the sewer line. Learn more at www.
saniflo.com.
Step 3: Add and enhance entryways
With more people coming and going,
entryways can become chaotic places in a
home. If possible, consider refining the entry
points to accommodate increased traffic and
contain clutter. You may want to add benches and cubbies for each person's personal
items to help contain messes and prevent
tripping hazards. Proper lighting, stable
hooks and grab bars are also useful additions
to accommodate multigenerational living.
Although you have a main entryway, you
might also have other points of entry such
2×3
benjamin realty
as from the garage, the side or back of the
home. Consider refreshing different entryways for different residents. For example,
young adults just starting their careers may
be coming and going a lot, so the door from
the garage should be their main point of
entrance. For aging parents with stability
issues, the front entryway might be a good
option, because it has railings and bright
lighting. You can even change stairways into
ramps if necessary.
Thinking strategically and making a few
smart improvements, you can update your
home so that it is comfortable for many people for many years to come.
FALL EDITION
Special to The Anderson County Review – October 20, 2020 3
Tips for jump-starting your next home project – safely
(BPT) – While health and safety concerns remain top of
mind for all Americans, many
are also using this season
and the extra time at home
to get started on long-awaited
home improvement projects.
Thankfully, there are plenty of
ways to achieve your vision for
your abode safely, with a little
planning and know how, while
practicing social distancing.
Projects requiring a
contractor
If you want a great return
on your investment that also
allows you to maintain social
distance from contracting professionals, focusing on your
homes exterior makes sense.
When looking for a contractor, make sure to ask detailed
questions about their process
before you request an estimate.
Questions to ask any company you contact:
* What virtual sales tools do
you use?
* Can we have a virtual
meeting to get started?
* Are you open to a driveway/curbside meeting for
viewing the house and looking
at samples?
* Will you and your employees wear protective gear,
including masks, at my home?
* How many people will

carving out some 'me time' in the process."
Martha Stewart's tips for
lawn maintenance:
* Schedule everything. A hobby farm
is a continual work-in-progress. From the
chicken coop to the horse paddocks, to the
gardens, lawns and orchard, the changing seasons play a big role in guiding a
year-round maintenance plan. Juggling
a farm and a busy work schedule can be
tricky. The solution: Martha calendars
everything at the beginning of the year,
not only her backyard parties and events,
but also her lawn care routine and needs
– from monthly checks on the mowers
(fluids, blade checks, etc.), to scheduling
weekly mowing and trimming tasks. This
way you don't forget important maintenance tasks and your lawn will flourish
and be party-ready year-round.
* Invest in quality. From the start,
invest in a quality mower, whether it
be a ride-on, walk-behind or zero-turn
mower. Quality equipment will have a
direct impact on the time it takes to manage your lawn and will contribute to the
overall health of the turf itself. "We have
been using Kubota zero-turn mowers for
years – the reliability and durability is
second to none for homeowners looking
for a sleek, comfortable ride and professional results," Martha added. "Did I
mention how easy they are to operate?"
* Don't cut corners. One of the easiest
ways to damage your lawn is by cutting it
too short. You may think cutting it short
will save you time in the long run, but
you'd be wrong. As a rule of thumb, we
cut no more than 1/3 of the grass blades at
a time, because if we cut too much, it will
damage the grass and cause browning and
grass loss. Plus, grass that is cut properly
thrives in a wider range of weather conditions.
* Recycle and reuse. It's important to
outfit your mower with a grass catcher not only does it give a clean finish to the
job at hand, but the clippings can be composted and used back in the lawn to keep
it healthy and happy. Have chickens?
Feed fresh grass clippings to them – they
go crazy for it, and it seems to increase
egg production.
* Don't be afraid and have fun. A zeroturn mower can be intimidating if you
haven't operated one before. "I say, get
over that fear and hop on – if I can mow my
own lawn, so can any woman out there.
We've got this! And, I promise it will be
the one 'chore' you won't give up – it really
is quite fun."

How to save money on monthly bills, with the help of your smart home
(BPT) – Hundreds of millions of people
have sheltered in place as governments
issue executive orders to help slow the
spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19). As
a result, many homes are becoming a fortress against the virus, a makeshift school,
an office outpost and a daycare facility. As
homeowners continue to spend more time
at home with the appliances and lights on,
they are looking for ways to optimize the
efficiency of their homes.
The typical U.S. family spends at least
$2,200 a year on home utility bills, according to the U.S. Department of Energy. On
average, thats 7% of a consumers annual
income. Utilities that used to be considered
optional, such as Internet and mobile
phone service, are now considered essential during the coronavirus era, adding
additional expense to a familys monthly
budget.
So where can a homeowner look to cut
back?
When thinking of a smart home, some
people might just think of cool, connected gadgets that make life easier or more
convenient. However, many smart-home
solutions are becoming part of sustainable
living, and they can save you money along
the way.
Here are four ways you can introduce
smart-home solutions into your daily life,
reducing the monthly strain of high utility
bills.
Dont sacrifice efficiency for comfort automate your thermostat
Homes are a source of comfort and the
temperature of your home should help
you achieve that feeling. However, heating
and cooling can account for nearly half of
a familys monthly utility budget. A smart
thermostat, like the Honeywell Home T9
thermostat, can reduce this cost by tailoring to your temperature preferences
during the day and at night. By adding
smart room sensors to your most popular
rooms, you can deliver the right temperature to the right room at the right time.
Look for trusted brands that are Energy
Star certified. Youll be doing your pocketbook and the environment a favor.
Sign up for rebates
When a sudden heat wave or cold snap
hits a large swath of the country, air conditioning systems and heaters in houses,
apartments, hospitals and office buildings
all crank on at once, and utility companies
go into overdrive trying to meet their clients increased energy demands.
This kind of short-term increased
demand puts a strain on the electric grid
and can even become a public safety hazard
if overloaded systems crash just when consumers most need them. To prevent this,
utility companies implement a variety of
voluntary energy-saving programs (known
in the industry as demand response, or DR)
that incentivize consumers to reduce their
energy use during periods of peak demand.
Many utility companies offer consumers a rebate for joining energy savings programs that connect to smart thermostats.
You can search for rebates at Resideo.com/
rebates.
Light up the room, but
only when youre in it
Parents can often tell the exact path
their children have taken based on what
lights have been left on throughout the
house. Turning off lights is an easy thing to
forget, even as adults. Weve all accidentally left that closet light or bedroom lamp on
all day. Consider installing automated and

easy DIY installation, a weekend lighting
project can give you long-term energy savings. Interested to know how much energy and cost are associated with running
various home appliances? You can find an
energy calculator at Energy.gov.
Get to know your water usage
Most of us dont think twice when turning on the faucet, flushing the toilet or
running a warm bath, which takes energy
to heat. Water is our planets most precious
resource, but its something we take for
granted because its available at the turn
of a tap. Monitoring and being aware of
your water footprint can help reduce your
monthly bill, while reducing strain on
water supplies. For example, your money
goes down the drain when dishes are
washed by hand – using up to 27 gallons
per load – instead of using an Energy Star
certified dishwasher that can use as little
as three gallons per load.
Smart washing machines can help
you optimize your laundry preferences
– and can find the right wash cycle and
water-temperature preferences suitable
for that load.
Resideos Wi-Fi Water Leak and Freeze
Detector can alert you and your smartphone if it detects a possible water leak.
Are you feeling like you want to start
improving your homes efficiency, but
dont know how to begin? HVAC contractors and security dealers are considered
essential businesses during the coronavirus in many states. Most credible professionals have adjusted their protocols
when interacting with homeowners as
well. Contact a professional that can recommend efficient whole-home solutions
to help optimize your homes water and
energy resources.

Get growing this fall gardening season
(BPT) – The changing season offers a new opportunity
to grow fall-friendly plants. Gardening is a great way to
decorate your space with beautiful blooms, grow fresh
vegetables that produce delicious cool season harvests,
and is a safe, healthy activity to engage in while practicing social distancing and enjoying the outdoors. Whether
you have a small patio, high-rise rooftop, quaint sunny
corner of your yard or even a balcony, the experts at
Ball Horticultural Company share their fall gardening
insights for growing a successful and stunning garden
this season.
Prepare for planting
If you have plants that have matured from the summer
gardening season, its time to clean up to prepare for new
growth. Remove surface plants and use a tiller or hand
tools to remove root matter under the soil. Add compost
or gardening soil to pots, window boxes and other garden
spaces, so they are ready with rich nutrients to support
fall plant growth. If youve grown hardy perennials, just
a brief tidy-up is needed. Clip away any brown foliage or
spent flowers and provide a light covering of mulch at the
base of the plant to ready them for frosty temperatures.
Embrace fall hues
Rich reds, vivid oranges and happy yellows are traditional autumnal hues that add energy to your gardens
as temperatures turn. A classic coneflower and pollinator favorite, like the Sombrero Echinacea from Darwin
Perennials, will brighten your space even as temperatures fall. Available in a variety of colors, Sombrero
Baja Burgundy and Fiesta Orange are ideal for bringing
vibrant fall color to sunny spaces and for attracting bees,
songbirds and butterflies to your yard. Tip: Leave the
older blooms of Echinacea on their stems to feed wildlife
into the winter. Then cut them back after their feast to put
new energy into the plant for spring.
Flowers that thrive

you can feel confident that these blooms will thrive even
as fall temperatures ebb and flow. Check out Cool Wave
Raspberry Swirl with cheerful magenta and white petals
and a delightful yellow center. Tip: Place your Cool Wave
Pansies where youve also planted bulbs. Their hardiness
will make them the first pansy to reappear next spring for
two seasons of enjoyment.
Enjoy homegrown vegetables
In addition to adding style to your space with fall
flowers, incorporate seasonal vegetables to enjoy fresh,
healthy produce straight from your backyard or patio.

Falling into home safety
(BPT) – While the crisp autumn air
signals the change of seasons, it also
brings fire safety risks associated
with fall activities, such as getting
cozy around a campfire and burning candles. While spending more
time at home and cooking more
indoors as cooler weather approaches, it is important to be prepared.
According to the National Fire
Protection Association (NFPA):
* Unattended cooking is the number one cause of home fires in the
U.S.;
* Campfire accidents send thousands of people to emergency rooms
with burn injuries every year;
* More than half of candle fires
(59%) start because a flammable
object is too close to the candle.
As temperatures begin to drop,
make sure to check out these fire
safety tips from First Alert:
Be alert while cooking. Cooking
fires are expected to continue to
increase with more cooking occurring at homes across the country
right now, so it is important for you
to stay alert and be mindful in the
kitchen. Stay in the kitchen while
you are frying, grilling, boiling or
broiling food. If you are simmering,
baking or roasting food, check it
regularly, remain in the kitchen
and use a timer to remind you that
you are cooking. Keep anything that
can catch fire – oven mitts, wooden utensils, food packaging or dish
towels – away from your stovetop.
Play it safe around a campfire.
Whether in your backyard or on a
campsite, it is important to know
how to enjoy a campfire safely.
Campfires need to be placed at least
25 feet away from any structure and
anything that can burn, such as dry
leaves and shrubs. Avoid burning
on windy, dry days and never use
gasoline or other flammable liquids.
Always attend to the campfire and
keep a close eye on children while
the fire is burning, especially when
roasting marshmallows.
Practice candle safety. Candles
can add lots of ambiance to your
indoor and outdoor areas, but they
can easily ignite anything that can
burn. When burning candles, keep
them at least a foot away from anything flammable, never leave them
unattended and place them out of
reach from children. Make it a routine to check that all flames are
extinguished before you leave the
area.
Be prepared to put out a fire.
Fires can spread very quickly and
have the potential to cause significant damage. You should always be
prepared with a fire extinguishing

4 easy – and effective – ways to protect your home
(BPT) – Data collected in recent years by
the FBI has revealed that there are roughly 2.5 million burglaries a year. This averages out to one burglary about every 13
seconds nationwide. So, while many feel
safe and secure at home, one can never be
too prepared when it comes to protecting
your loved ones.
But whats the solution? Beyond evaluating your surroundings and identifying unsecure access points, many homeowners can benefit from taking proactive
preventative measures to ensure their
homes and families are protected. And
while installing an expensive, high-tech
security system is an easy solution, there
are other measures that can be taken to
provide immediate barriers and establish
a safer distance from potential threats.
Here are four effective ways to easily prepare and protect your home yearround.
1. Identify unsecure parts
of the home
Before even implementing a home
security plan, examine all the doors and
windows in your house. Pay close attention to whether there are any windows
that are accessible from ground-level or
ones that might not lock properly.
Likewise, identify any doors in your
house that may feel at risk. This can be
doors without deadbolts, older ones that
may easily be knocked in, or those that
are hidden and dark, making them ideal
for home invaders to stealthily leverage.
Reevaluate each door, window or
entryway and determine a game plan for
increased home security.
2. Strengthen door security
If your primary concern is reinforcing
your doors, there are several easy-to-install and affordable options to help support hinged and sliding doors. Designed
for nearly every door, products such as an
adjustable Door Security Bar can provide
a strong grip and help prevent doors from
opening.
However, if you would prefer to alert
people when an intruder is present, a
SABRE Door Stop Alarm can provide
peace of mind. Designed to look like a simple door wedge, a piercing alarm sounds
when the door opens slightly and pressure
is applied, drawing immediate attention
to the situation from up to 1,500 feet away.
It can be easily set up on any hotel door or
rental property, bringing an added sense
of security on the road.
3. Safeguard windows
When looking to protect windows, as
well as doors, one cost-effective solution
can be installing the portable Door and
Window Alarm Kit, which comes with
four alarms. Affixing onto any window,
this alarm requires no additional wiring and emits a loud 120dB sound when
it detects an unwanted intruder entering, serving as a deterrent as well as an
attention-grabbing signal to homeowners
and surrounding neighbors up to 750 feet
away.
4. Take home defense to the next level
Home intrusions can leave homeowners feeling vulnerable, especially if these
incidents happen while they are home.
One easy-to-use, readily accessible solution for homeowners is the SABRE Home
Defense Pepper Gel, which is designed for
using indoors with an
18-foot range. Another
option for those seeking additional home
security
measures
is the Pepper Spray
Launcher
Home
Defense Kit, which
allows for greater
distance
between
the
homeowner
and intruder. The
Launcher deploys pepper powder projectiles
up to 175 feet away,
offering more stopping
power and creating an
even safer distance
between your family
and an intruder.

10 rules of tires every driver should follow before they hit the road
(BPT) – Every time you drive, you trust
your tires with your safety.
Tires may seem simple, but theyre
more complex than many drivers realize.
That begs the question: What do you need
to know about them in order to stay safe
on the road?
Here are 10 Rules of Tires – core principles drivers should know before they turn
the ignition or walk inside a tire shop.
Follow these important guidelines and
you can have peace of mind when you hit
the road. To read more about each rule,
visit NokianTires.com/TenRules.
Purchase tires that suit your climate
Even the best set of tires could be the
wrong fit for where you live. If you get lots
of snow and ice each winter, then winter
tires are likely your safest option, which
means youll need to switch to all-season
tires in the other three seasons. If you
dont get any winter weather, all-season
tires are a good choice for year-round use.
If your winter weather is unpredictable
or you live near the mountains, all-weather tires provide a great compromise: winter safety in a tire you can drive all
year long. NokianTires.com/Weather has
more information about all-weather tires.
High-quality tires are
worth the investment
The tire shop is one place where price
should not be your top priority. There are
many factors – such as grip, responsiveness to the road and low rolling resistance
– that make high-quality tires worth the
purchase and could actually help save you
money in the long run.
Tires can be sustainable
without sacrificing safety
High-quality tires arent just about
safety; good tires can also help you minimize your environmental footprint. Many
tiremakers are lowering their products
rolling resistance, using eco-friendly
ingredients and introducing sustainable
production processes. Rewarding them
for their efforts can also help protect the
planet.
Tires are only as safe as
their maintenance
Even the best tires depend on you.
Keeping them up to speed gives you a
better chance of staying safe on the road.
That means inflating them to the proper pressure level, regularly checking for
damage and rotating them frequently.
Winter tires dont belong
on spring and summer roads
The qualities that keep you safe on
snow and ice make winter tires a bad fit
once weather warms. Fortunately, there
are other solutions crafted to keep you
safe when the mercury rises, such as
driving all-weather tires year-round or
switching to all-season tires.
Much of a tires quality is determined
before it touches the road
Want to know what youll get out of
your tires? Pay close attention to what
goes in them. High-quality rubber and
state-of-the-art technology set great tires
apart from the rest. For example, Nokian
Tyres reinforces many of its products
with Aramid – the same fiber used in bulletproof vests – to help protect against road
hazards.
When youre choosing tires,
trust the experts
Tire dealers work hard to help keep
drivers safe. They can help you see past
marketing gimmicks and understand
which tires are best for you.
Make sure your tires fit your vehicle
The right-sized tires are more likely to
provide you with safety, fuel efficiency
and comfort. Make sure your tire size
matches your vehicles recommendation,
which you can typically find in your door
jamb.
Put stock in the features that
actually matter
Low price and high mileage warranties
can be overrated. To choose the right

tires, pay attention to other details – such
as ingredients, rolling resistance, and
whether the tires match your typical road
conditions.
Treat road trips differently
than the daily commute
Road trips place unique demands on
your tires. Before you leave for a long
trip, check your tires inflation level and
tread depth, inspect for visible damage
and have them rotated.
Following these rules goes a long way
toward keeping you safe on the road. To

3 ways to build a lasting dream deck with steel framing
(BPT) – Before your project gets underway, it's necessary to consider the type of
building materials you'll need to tackle
this major upgrade. Your first inclination
might be to track down deck board samples from your local home improvement
store. While important, make sure not
to overlook what kind of foundational
materials will support the decking system
itself. At one point in time, lumber was
the only type of product available for use.
However, since lumber typically starts
deteriorating after 10 years in service,
builders and homeowners alike may want
to consider an alternative solution. Lightgauge steel framing, a lasting alternative
to short-lived wood framing, can help you
create your dream outdoor living space. It
will also defend against a spendy decking
overhaul later down the road.
Here are three tried-and-true ways
steel framing can help you build a dream
deck on a foundation that lasts:
1. Lends to longevity
If you're looking to assemble a long-lasting deck, composite and PVC deck boards
are likely at the top of your list, and
with good reason. Their UV- and moisture-resistant properties, for one, offer
protection from the irreversible effects of
weathering. In fact, a growing number of
manufacturers now back the performance
of their surface boards with impressive
25-year-plus warranties. But why install
25-year deck boards on a frame that is
subject to deterioration?
To avoid the headache of replacing
your entire deck structure when the wood
frame can no longer serve as adequate
support, look to steel framing. Light-gauge
steel, used in Evolution steel deck framing, offers commercial-grade strength and
can last as long as today's enduring PVC
and composite deck boards. What's more,
steel sidelines problems associated with
moisture absorption, one of the most common reasons for lumber decomposition.
2. Makes safety a top priority
With your deck in use for much of the
year, lives are on the line if your deck
structure fails. With such high stakes,
safety should be top of mind when building your dream deck. Fortunately, building with light-gauge steel allows you to
avoid any risk of deterioration that can
threaten the integrity of your deck system, including rot and decay from water,
fungi and pests.
3. Supports design freedom
To create a deck with lasting style from
the bottom up, look for a manufacturer
that offers a comprehensive, ready-to-assemble steel framing system. Whether
you're a weekend warrior or hiring a deck
builder, integrated framing products will
make it easy for you to construct a dream
deck without compromising your family's
safety.
Dream big and build strong
Ready to turn your dream deck into
a reality? Armed with steel deck framing, you can support those beautiful new
surface boards for 25-plus years. And in
building strong with steel, you will create
a deck that invites you to stay home.

The latest in home fire safety
(BPT) – While the office, school and
home now share one roof, keeping your
house and family safe has never been
more important. Thanks to enhanced
safety technology, you can better protect
against the threats of smoke, fire and
carbon monoxide (CO), allowing you to
go about your busy lifestyle without skipping a beat. When upgrading your protection, make sure to install alarms with
the latest safety enhancements. Alarms
should be installed on every level of the
home, including in each bedroom and
outside every sleeping area.
10-year battery: According to the
National Fire Protection Association, 60%
of fire deaths occur in homes without
working smoke alarms and dead batteries cause 25% of smoke alarm failures,
making it crucial to regularly check your
alarms and replace the batteries. Helping
to address this issue, one of the greatest advancements in alarm technology in
recent years has been the development of
10-year sealed battery alarms. Offering
convenient protection, this enhanced
technology eliminates the risk of having an alarm deactivate due to battery
removal, making battery replacements
and low-battery chirps a thing of the past.
Upgrading to 10-year alarms will give you
one less thing to worry about.
Combination smoke and CO alarm:
For ultimate home safety, select a combi-
nation smoke and CO alarm for protection
from the threats of smoke, fire and CO.
Known as the silent killer, CO is a colorless, odorless and tasteless gas, making it
impossible to detect without an alarm. A
variety of smoke and CO alarms, including hardwired, combination and 10-year
battery-powered models, are available to
meet specific needs and local requirements. With the convenience and simplicity of one device, the combination alarm
helps to protect you from three potentially
deadly threats.
Voice and location: Alarms with voice
and location technology use a loud, pre-recorded human voice that lets you know
the type and location of danger when
fire or CO is detected. Studies show that
children aged 6 to 10 are awakened more
readily by voice rather than a beeping
alarm, making this technology ideal for
homes with young kids. Plus, voice and
location alarms, such as the First Alert
Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Alarm with
Voice and Location, help save time by
identifying where smoke or CO is detected in the home, so you can determine the
fastest and safest way out.
At a time when home safety technology
has never been smarter, upgrade your
level of protection today. For more information about home safety technology
enhancements, visit www.firstalert.com.

4 tips to help juggle
difficult family schedules
(BPT) – Due to the coronavirus' impact
on our daily routines, we're juggling more
than ever. From complex school schedules, to working and living in the same
place – it can be difficult to control what's
on our plates.
In this environment, small steps to
improve safety and get organized will
make a world of difference. As you navigate school carpools and working remote,
consider these recommendations to master the days ahead.
Use Sunday to map out your week's
meals and wardrobe
From meal prep to outfit prep, taking
time at the beginning of the week to plan
Monday-Friday will give you time back.
To stay organized, consider purchasing
five different color stickers, each to represent one day of the week. After making
five days' worth of lunches or hanging up
outfits, stick on the designated sticker.
Take steps to implement
long-lasting safety
For confidence and control on the road,
upgrade your most critical piece of safety
equipment – your tires. According to a
recent study by Michelin, 70% of parents
are opting to drive their kids to school
instead of having them take the bus.
Additionally, 39% of parents are practicing more car maintenance, knowing
they'll be on the roads more.
To elevate your vehicle's safety and
performance in any weather, consider the
new Michelin CrossClimate 2. This tire
stops shorter in dry and wet conditions
than competitors and lasts up to 15,000
miles longer. For most drivers, that's an
additional year of use – whether at the
school drop-off line or racing to extracurriculars.
Utilize cleaning hacks to save time
Instead of a cumbersome cleaning session once a week, clean the house little by
little. In fact, you can use products you
have lying around the house in unique
ways to limit additional trips to the store.
For instance, polish chrome and stainless
steel fixtures with shaving cream, as recommended in a recent article on apartmenttherapy.com, or use bleach pens to
easily remove dirt from grout. By cleaning daily a small amount, you'll save time
and live in a cleaner, healthier home.
Don't forget to take care of yourself
With many parents and caregivers taking on more roles and responsibilities,
it is important that they take time for
themselves. It can appear to be contradictory; however, technology can help
with disconnecting quickly and easily.
Take a walk while listening to a favorite
podcast, use FaceTime to "see" a friend
or download a mindfulness app, which
can help your brain stay focused and help
diffuse stress. Whether it's time you can
squeeze in-between daily tasks or an extra
hour you take before the rest of the house
wakes up, hold yourself accountable to
these virtual self-appointments by adding
them to your calendar.

The benefits of biking for kids
Special to The Anderson County Review – October 20, 2020 11
(BPT) – For kids, biking is one
of the gateways to growing up.
Popular films and TV hits such
as E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial
and Stranger Things highlight the joy a bike can bring
as a fun way to explore or
spend time kicking around the
neighborhood. Yet, according
to a study from the Outdoor
Industry Association, bike riding among kids declined 19%
between 2007 and 2019.
There are plenty of good
reasons for anyone to get outside and ride a bike. Especially
during this time of social distancing, bike riding offers the
perfect opportunity to shake off
cabin fever and safely enjoy the
fresh air.
