MST, Kadoka Annex The meeting was called to order at 7 p.m. A motion was made to add discussion about time/place of the commission’s next meeting by Cindy VanderMay, seconded by Kelly O’Connel, and passed unanimously by the Commission. A motion to approve the minutes from the previous meeting on April 11, 2012 was made by Mike Groven, seconded by Kelly, and passed unanimously by the commission. Justin Otsea, Planner, Central South Dakota Enhancement District, gave a brief presentation on the ‘Benefits of Comprehensive Planning.’ The commission then heard comments from the public regarding the draft of the comprehensive plan. A question was raised to the legality of the process of developing the plan. Ken Wilmarth addressed this stating that the commission has acted completely legally, as they are a only a recommending board. A revision regarding the description of the location of the airport was recommended by the public, and changed immediately. Further discussion was held, but no recommendations regarding the plan were made. Concerns were primarily focused on dilapidated properties, and junk cars throughout the city. After hearing all of the public’s comments, a motion was made by Kelly to recommend the City Council hold their respective public hearing; Mike seconded the motion. The Commission passed the motion unanimously. Discussion was held regarding the Commission’s next meeting. A motion was made by Cindy to hold the next meeting on June 13th, at 7 p.m., at a location yet to be determined, Kelly seconded the motion. The Commission passed the motion unanimously. A motion was made by Mike to adjourn; Kelly seconded the motion. The commission passed the motion unanimously, and the meeting was adjourned.

This is a water/wastewater response network designed to assist members in the event of an emergency. There is no cost to join. There was no opposition by the council. B. Streets: Solon stated that the shop needs to have a new sewer line installed. In addition, the furnace is not working and it will be costly to repair as it is an old, fuel oil system. He will get quotes on both projects. The culvert at the Catholic Church was brought up and Solon stated that he would not recommend the installation of this culvert due to the length of it and that it would be too long for maintenance. A question was raised about the possibility of additional street lighting being installed in certain areas. West Central Electric will be contacted about this concern. C. Solid Waste: no report. Solon stated that the gutters on the north side of the transfer station may need to be repaired or replaced. NOTICE OF PUBLIC MEETING JACKSON COUNTY DRIVER’S LICENSE SERVICES The Jackson County Commissioners are holding a public meeting at 8:00 p.m., Friday, June 29, 2012 in the Courtroom of the Jackson County Courthouse, 700 Main Street, Kadoka, SD. The purpose of the meeting is to obtain public input as to whether Jackson County should continue to provide driver’s licensing services for the S. D. Department of Public Safety. In 2004 Jackson County entered into an agreement with the S. D. Department of Public Safety to provide driver licensing services for the State of South Dakota. At the time Jackson County entered into the agreement with the State, the State provided driver licensing services in surrounding communities. The State has reduced or eliminated the service provided in those communities. This has created a larger work load for the Jackson County office(s) providing the services, and the cost to Jackson County is greater than the $5.00 per license fee that Jackson County retains for providing the service. Jackson County is considering hiring additional staff for the increased work load. Citizens come from up to one hundred miles away to obtain their driver’s licenses in Jackson County, and many chose to come to Jackson County instead of going to the state sites in other communities, Pierre or Rapid City. Jackson County requested that Jackson County be allowed to retain one-half of the license fees. The state has denied the request. State law does not allow the county to charge an additional fee. If additional funding is not found, the Jackson County Commissioners are considering discontinuing the driver licensing services. For persons unable to attend this meeting, written comments may be sent to: Jackson County Commission, PO Box 280, Kadoka, SD 57543 [Published June 21, 2012, at an estimated cost of $22.75] D. Liquor: no report. E. Auditorium/Park: The pool is open and the lifeguards completed certification training. F. Public Safety: The monthly report was distributed. G. Mayor’s Report: The mayor stated that there were no changes to the committee assignments and preliminary budget worksheets for 2013 were distributed in the council packets. Willert requested permission to attend the Elected Officials workshop to be held in Pierre. Shuck made Motion 12-06-11:72 to adjourn. The motion was seconded by Willert, with all members voting yes and the meeting was adjourned at 8:15 p.m. ATTEST: Patty Ulmen, Finance Officer City of Kadoka Harry Weller, Mayor [Published June 21, 2012, at the total approximate cost of $109.03] NOTICE OF Conservation District Supervisor Vacancy Jackson County Conservation District Board of Supervisors As of December 31, 2012, there will be vacancies on the Jackson County Conservation District Board of Supervisors due to the expiration of the current term(s) of office of: Brandon Rock, Taxpayer of Real Property (4 year term) Vacant, Landowner or Occupier #2 (remaining 2 year) Dennis Sinkey, Landowner or Occupier #3 (remaining 2 year) Donita Denke, Landowner or Occupier #1 (4 year term) Ken Graupmann, Urban Member (4 year term) All parties interested in election to the board, please contact Mayola Horst, District Manager.

Gold MD, a physician educator at Columbia University, noted a disturbing trend for Medical Students and Residents. Students were overemphasizing advancing technology while forgetting about the value of a caring bedside manner. Indeed, a patient survey noted that 12% of patients believed their doctor didn’t know their name; 20% felt the doctor was rude or condescending; and 47% sensed their doctor was rushed. Dr. Gold wondered why this was happening and if there was a way to train young students in medicine to be more compassionate. How do you teach someone to have empathy and feel another’s pain? Thus the Gold Humanism In Medicine Foundation was begun in order to emphasize the virtue of caring and the value of simple kindness at the bedside. This is not just because it is the right thing to do, but also because it is a very powerful tool in helping patients and families heal as they struggle with any kind of illness. Humanism by definition started with the ancient Greeks, and ancient Chinese, Indians, and Persians, as each group, independently, thousands of years ago described value concepts of compassion and justice. In the late 1400s and early 1500s the Italian Managing for Reproductive Success: Fertility Level of Semen Part III of a four-part Series Fertility is influenced by many factors, and one of the best methods to look at factors that influence fertility is with the 'Equation of Reproduction,' says George Perry, SDSU Extension Beef Reproductive Management Specialist. Perry explains that the 'Equation of Reproduction' includes the following four areas: •Percentage of animals detected in standing estrus and inseminated; •Inseminator efficiency; •Fertility level of the semen; •Fertility level of the herd. The first article focused on detecting standing estrus and inseminator efficiency was the focus of the second article in this four-part series on managing for reproductive success released by SDSU Extension. This is the third article in the series and will discuss fertility level of the semen. Fertility level of the semen The bull influences overall herd fertility more than any other single animal, and loss of fertility by a bull or straw of semen can cause substantial loss to a potential calf crop, Perry says. "The bull supplies half of the genetics to all of the calves he sires, and bull selection can be the most powerful method of genetic improvement in the herd," Perry said. "Clearly there are differences among bulls in their ability to achieve pregnancy success." Perry points to research conducted at the USDA-ARS research center in Miles City, Mont. This research has shown tremendous variation in pregnancy rates between bulls when they were used either in a fixed-time AI breeding program or used following detecting cows in estrus. However, all of these bulls in this study looked normal when evaluated under a microscope for motility and morphology. "For several decades seminal traits have been studied to try to predict reproductive success. Research is being conducted to identify characteristics of semen that influence fertility rates," he said. "The ability of sperm to become capable of fertilizing, binding and penetrating an oocyte all influence a bull's fertility." Perry says that research is underway to develop tests that will more accurately determine the fertility of individual bulls. "Our ability to predict the fertility of individual bulls either by a semen sample or a DNA sample may eventually be possible," he said. "Nevertheless, the only current method for determination of fertility differences between bulls requires the insemination of several thousand animals under the same management practices." Currently, Perry says the best method for cattle producers to acquire semen with good fertility is to buy it from a reputable source and make sure it has all been handled correctly. Fertility level and natural service With Natural service, physical characteristics, such as scrotal circumference, mating ability, and semen quality play a role in a bull's fertility," says Perry. He says the best way to determine these factors is through a Breeding Soundness examination (BSE). The American Society for Theriogenology developed mini- A Good Bedside Manner Renaissance brought back Greek teachings, classical humanities, and an ethical philosophy of social science. Hoping to bring all disciplines together they also studied the Jewish Kabbalah as well as the earliest Gospel writings of Christian forefathers. History has it, however, that eventually the humanism movement clashed with certain religious leaders who declared that “love of humanity” could not come from human reason alone but only from the divine. Humanism leaders, in contrast, came to reject any component of faith not supported by scientific proof. Unfortunately the polarized groups lost sight of the message about caring for one another. I like best the German Art Historian Erwin Panofsky’s definition of humanism as an attitude of respect for the human dignity between individuals. He said that humans are intrinsically free and rational but are limited by fallibility and frailty. We therefore have responsibility for each other to tolerate failings while protecting freedoms. God, grant me the wisdom and empathy to feel another’s pain; the responsibility to accept frailty while protecting freedom; and the kindness of a good bedside manner. mum guidelines for a bull to pass a BSE. To successfully complete a breeding soundness evaluation, a bull must have at least 30 percent sperm motility, 70 percent normal sperm morphology, and a minimum scrotal circumference based on age. Bulls meeting the preceding minimum requirements are classified as satisfactory potential breeders. If a bull does not pass one of these tests, he is classified as a "classification deferred" animal (meaning it is recommended that the bull be tested again) or he is classified as an unsatisfactory potential breeder. Bulls should be tested approximately one month to six weeks prior to the breeding season. "This allows for time to retest bulls if unsatisfactory results are obtained or time to find a replacement herd bull," Perry said. The overall purpose of the physical examination portion of a BSE is to determine a bull's mating ability. Mating ability can be described as the physical capabilities needed to successfully breed a cow. A bull must be able to see, smell, eat, and move normally to successfully breed cows. The physical examination closely scrutinizes a bull's eyes, teeth, feet, legs, and nutritional level (evaluated by body condition score). Any disease or injury that affects joints, muscles, nerves, bones, or tendons may cause a bull to be structurally unsound. In addition to structural unsoundness, diseases or injuries to the penis or prepuce can result in an inability to breed via natural service. "These abnormalities will only be detected by careful examination or observing an attempted mating of a cow. A bull that has high quality semen but is unable to physically breed cows is unsatisfactory for natural service," he said. Sperm motility and morphology Whether natural service or AI is used, Perry says two of the most important indicators of bull fertility currently available are sperm motility and morphology. "With AI identifying females in estrus and proper placement of semen are critical factors for obtaining desirable pregnancy rates in the cowherd; however, compromised semen quality through semen handling will negate the attention to detail of the two factors discussed previously," Perry said. "With natural service, structurally sound bulls with a large scrotal circumference and high semen quality should be selected as herd sires. It is important to remember that semen quality of an individual bull changes over time and, for a bull to be fertile, desire to find cows in estrus (see Managing For Reproductive Success: Detecting Estrus Part I) and mating ability should be evaluated periodically.

USDA’s Crop Progress Report USDA’s latest crop progress report for the nation shows that an estimated 20% of the nation’s 2012 winter wheat is harvested. Missouri is around 30% cut, with a normal harvest date of early July. Kansas is around 20% harvested. Wow, this is way is ahead of a 3% national average harvest rate for this time of the year! Looks like yields are decent also. 82% of the crop was rated fair to excellent. That means this year’s harvest is on track to be a big one … but not a record breaker. For South Dakota the early crop progress trend continues. Headed winter wheat in the state is estimated at 96% vs. a 5 year average of 52% for this time of the crop year.
