Workshops help Iowa vineyards<br />
By Ken Ross<br />
<strong>Graphic</strong>-<strong>Advocate</strong> Editor<br />
An important learning center for<br />
the developing Iowa grape growing<br />
business is the vineyards of Richard<br />
Black near Farnhamville, 3228<br />
Xenia Ave.<br />
Black has been hosting Viticulture<br />
workshops of the Northwest Iowa<br />
Grape Growers Association for<br />
about nine years.<br />
“I think we’ve got one of the<br />
strongest workshop programs that<br />
we’ve ever had,” said Black, who<br />
besides being a grower of wine<br />
grapes is a retired professor of<br />
art and an internationally known<br />
printmaker.<br />

At its Feb. 14 meeting, the Calhoun<br />
County Board of Supervisors<br />
approved a request by Randy Baird<br />
of Union State Bank to enter into a<br />
lease allowing the bank to place a<br />
satellite communication disk on the<br />
roof of the courthouse.<br />
Baird explained that the small disk<br />
presentations and demonstrations.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re is a lot of hands-on learning,”<br />
Black said.<br />
<strong>The</strong> workshops start with<br />
registration at 8:30 a.m., and the<br />
program at 9 a.m. with lunch and<br />
wine tasting at 11:30 a.m. Black said<br />
there is no need to register before the<br />
day of the workshop. A person can<br />
simply show up and participate.<br />

with First Community Bank based<br />
in Newell, which is in the process<br />
of merging with the Union Bank.<br />
He said the dish would also need<br />
to be connected to the courthouse<br />
power supply and that the power<br />
for a month would be no more than<br />
$12, that being on the high side of<br />
probable power expense.<br />

Fire in RC<br />
<strong>The</strong> Rockwell City Fire Department responded to a structure fi re at 860 Court Street on Saturday,<br />
Feb. 11, at approximately 1:50 a.m. Rockwell City Police Offi cer Mike Anderson noticed smoke<br />
pouring out of the apartment building and reported the fi re. Nobody was inside the building at<br />
the time of the fi re. <strong>The</strong> only resident currently living there was building owner, Dusty Seiberling.<br />
Seiberling was out of town at the time of the fi re. Fire department members were on scene until<br />
11:30 a.m. <strong>The</strong> fi re department’s efforts were hampered due to zero degree temperatures during<br />
the early morning hours. <strong>The</strong> structure is considered a total loss. Also assisting at the scene<br />
was the Manson Fire Department, Calhoun County EMS, Rockwell City Police Department,<br />
Calhoun County Sheriff’s Offi ce, and the State Fire Marshal’s Offi ce. Cause of the fi re is still under<br />
investigation. (Photo courtesy of the Rockwell City Fire Department)<br />

when the vehicle Justin was driving<br />
east on D-36 went out of control on<br />
ice and slid sideways into the path of<br />
a vehicle driven by Ronnie Prince,<br />
64, Somers.<br />
Three other passengers in the<br />
Hueton vehicle were injured - Justin<br />

Supervisors pass jake brake ordinance<br />
By Ken Ross<br />
<strong>Graphic</strong>-<strong>Advocate</strong> Editor<br />
<strong>The</strong> Calhoun County Board of<br />
Supervisors approved the fi rst<br />
reading of an ordinance restricting<br />
use of engine compression brakes<br />
(jake brakes) causing excessive<br />
noise within a mile of where the new<br />
four-lane section of Highway 20<br />
ends at Highway 4.<br />
<strong>The</strong> supervisors had abandoned a<br />
previous proposal to make the ban<br />
(which affects a type of secondary<br />
brake on semi trucks) a countywide<br />
ordinance. <strong>The</strong> ordinance approved<br />
at the Feb. 14 meeting is specifi c<br />
to an area where residents had<br />
complained about noise.<br />
<strong>The</strong> ordinance does not restrict all<br />
use of jake brakes, only excessively<br />
loud use of jake brakes and<br />
there would be an exemption for<br />
emergency use. It was noted on Feb.<br />
14 and at previous meetings that<br />
the only trucks that are excessively<br />
loud use a straight pipe system that<br />
violates state law already, but local<br />
law enforcement offi cers are not<br />
trained in muffl er system inspection.<br />
<strong>The</strong> ordinance will not go into<br />
effect until after three readings<br />
and signs will be posted prior to<br />
enforcement. Signs where such<br />
an ordinance has been used in<br />
other counties has wording such as<br />
“engine brake ordinance enforced”<br />
rather than giving precise details on<br />
the signs.<br />
Sheriff Bill Davis, who also drives<br />
a truck, said he and his deputies do<br />
not want to harass truck drivers.<br />
“<strong>The</strong> goal is not to hammer people,<br />
the goal is to get the word out,”<br />
Davis said.<br />
Scott Jacobs, supervisor, said he<br />
wanted the signs to be large enough<br />
to be noticed. Most towns, such<br />
as some in Calhoun County, have<br />
similar ordinances, but the signs are<br />
so small that nobody notices them.<br />
Property owners in the area have<br />
been present at meetings to support<br />
an ordinance. One of them, Dave<br />
Gidel, spoke on behalf of a jake<br />
brake ordinance at the Feb. 14<br />
meeting.<br />
“It’s pretty much 24 hours a day,”<br />
Gidel said. He added that he knows<br />
that an ordinance will not eliminate<br />
all the noise but he was told that just<br />
putting up a sign would eliminate<br />
about 60 percent of it.<br />
Other county residents, including<br />
those working for a locally based<br />
trucking fi rm, have opposed the<br />
ordinance, both in its previous<br />
countywide form and in its present<br />
site specifi c form.<br />
One of the primary objections to<br />
the ordinance is that it targets truck<br />
drivers while not restricting other<br />
sources of excessive noise.<br />
“Why is this about jake brakes<br />
and not a noise ordinance?” Tom<br />
Anderson asked. Others in the<br />
audience had similar objections and<br />
noted that motorcycles can often be<br />
heard many miles away.<br />
Another objection was the<br />
vagueness of the wording, with<br />
the term “excessive noise” being a<br />
matter of opinion unless a decibel<br />
level is specifi ed and measured<br />
before issuing a ticket.<br />
Audience members also speculated<br />
that the county was “opening a<br />
can of worms” by specifying this<br />
site which would obligate them to<br />
approve future requests all over the<br />
county.<br />
Regarding the ordinances already<br />
in place in local communities, it was<br />
stated that truck drivers generally<br />
assume that those are in place already<br />
and that truck are at reduced speeds<br />
already in towns so the braking noise<br />
would be less.<br />
Gidel said that if motorcycle noise<br />
or any other noise is a concern, then<br />
anyone concerned could request that<br />
the supervisors take action.<br />
“We’re bringing a recommendation<br />
for an ordinance that we think<br />
addresses a serious problem,” Gidel<br />
said.<br />
Cindy Voorde, county attorney,<br />
noted that many violations of laws<br />
involve a subjective judgment by the<br />
law enforcement offi cer, including<br />
public intoxication, reckless driving<br />
and disorderly conduct.<br />
Voorde said that when a person<br />
refutes a charge, it is up to the<br />
law enforcement offi cer to prove<br />
the charge in court. <strong>The</strong>re were<br />
statements from the audience that<br />
a truck driver from out of the area<br />
would not miss a day of work to<br />
contest a charge in court.<br />
Gary Nicholson, supervisor, said<br />
that if anybody wants a jake brake<br />
ordinance near their property, the<br />
person would need to appear before<br />
the supervisors and go through the<br />
same process. He said approval<br />
would not be automatic and that<br />
the property owner would need to<br />
convince the supervisors that the<br />
problem was at the same level it is at<br />
the intersection of Hwy 4 and Hwy.<br />
20.<br />
Dean Hog, a supervisor<br />
participating by conference call,<br />
said the drivers who were violating<br />
the noise ordinance were probably<br />
already violating state law by not<br />
having the proper equipment.<br />
“All we’re doing is putting a<br />
warning out there not to make<br />
excessive noise,” Hoag said.<br />
<strong>The</strong> motion to pass the ordinance<br />
was approved unanimously.

<strong>The</strong>re's a certain power in silence.<br />
In a recent cover article by Time<br />
Magazine, it was pointed out that,<br />
in our world where extroverts, or the<br />
loudest, get the most attention; introverts,<br />
or the quieter people, may<br />
be the better adjusted. Being a cardcarrying<br />
introvert, I like that theory.<br />
Have you ever been in a crowd of<br />
yakking, noisy people and just want<br />
to scream, “Would everyone just<br />
please shut up!”?<br />
<strong>The</strong>re's a rather sexist joke going<br />
around, mostly amongst men, that<br />
women have 10,000 words in them,<br />
and they're not happy until they get<br />
those 10,000 words out. Daily. <strong>The</strong><br />
medical profession tells us that there<br />
may be a good reason for that. It<br />
seems that women have a gland in<br />
their neck that men don't. <strong>The</strong> jaw<br />
action of talking stimulates that<br />
gland, producing endorphins that<br />
make them feel better. Women love<br />
to talk.<br />
I've written about George Helt before.<br />
In 2010, he passed away at the<br />
age of 92. George had an interesting<br />
and eclectic life of farming, photography,<br />
flying model airplanes,<br />

world travel, and love for his family<br />
and friends. In talking to his wife,<br />
Fern, who is 93, another story about<br />
George emerged.<br />
George had a gravely voice and,<br />
yes, he was shy, or introverted. One<br />
morning, when George woke up,<br />
there was blood on his pillow. Fern<br />
made him go to the doctor. <strong>The</strong> doctor<br />
couldn't see anything wrong, so<br />
he sent George to Iowa City. At Iowa<br />
City, the doctors ran a tube down<br />
George's throat, but couldn't see<br />
anything wrong. <strong>The</strong>y advised him<br />
not to talk.<br />
That is just what George did. For<br />
six months! Fern wrote a note for<br />
him that he carried in case someone<br />
came up to him and started talking.<br />
<strong>The</strong> note, in Fern's articulate hand<br />
writing said, “Please excuse me. I<br />
can't talk.”<br />
As I mentioned, George loved to<br />
travel. At the time of the stop-talking<br />
scenario, George had a trip to the<br />
1963 World's Fair in New York City<br />
planned. He was taking his eightyear<br />
old son, Kenneth.<br />
And they went—George not talking<br />
the whole way. George and Ken-<br />

Mitt Romney went into the<br />
Common Folks Café one morning<br />
recently and introduced himself to<br />
two customers and the waitress -<br />
Tom Tomson, Dick Dickson and<br />
Harriett Harriettson.<br />
Mitt explained that he was<br />
connecting to regular people<br />
in regular towns in his quest to<br />
demonstrate his regularity. Mitt<br />
sat between Tom and Dick at the<br />
counter and Harriett asked whether<br />
Mitt wanted coffee.<br />
“No thank you. I believe I’d like a<br />
mango frappe,” Mitt responded.<br />
“We’re fresh out of mango frappe.<br />
How about orange juice?” she asked.<br />
“Fine, make it a Philippine-Florida<br />
blend, if you don’t mind.”<br />
“No, I don’t mind. That’s all I<br />
drink myself.”<br />
Mitt turned to Tom and asked, “So,<br />
are you eager to start your day of<br />
doing regular work, Tom?”<br />
“Yeah, I can hardly wait to get<br />
started slinging carcasses at the<br />
packing plant.”<br />
“Good, good. And you, Dick, are<br />
you looking forward to your day of<br />
productivity?”<br />
“I just spent an all-nighter in<br />
freezing rain repairing utility lines<br />
and get to go out again after a few<br />
hours rest.”<br />
“Splendid, splendid.”<br />
Harriett brought Mitt a glass of<br />

orange juice.<br />
“Here’s your Philippine-Florida<br />
blend. We’ll have to stock up on<br />
mango frappe for your next visit.”<br />
“Thank you, and how about you,<br />
Harriett, are you content with your<br />
menial yet dignified career choice?”<br />
“Well, you’ll excuse me Mitt if<br />
I don’t feel all that dignified today<br />
after caring for five-year-old twins<br />
who were sick with diarrhea and<br />
nausea all night.”<br />
“What you need is a good live-in<br />
nanny. I know there are some really<br />
reasonably priced ones but you need<br />
to check their immigration papers<br />
real closely,” Mitt said, chuckling<br />
and winking.<br />
“I wouldn’t want to deprive myself<br />
of all the joys of parenthood,”<br />
Harriett said as she walked away to<br />
serve other customers.<br />
“Mitt, what exactly is it you do,<br />
other than run for president?” Tom<br />
asked.<br />
“That’s about it right now. I<br />
worked hard and was frugal so that I<br />
could get an income from dividends<br />
and interest,” Romney said.<br />
“So do you spend a lot of time<br />
managing your investments?” Tom<br />
asked.<br />
“Well, no. For a long time now,<br />
I’ve had my money in a blind trust,<br />
so actually, I can’t manage my<br />
investments.”<br />
We did not have a very good<br />
turnout for our meeting with the<br />
citizens the 21st. <strong>The</strong> only good<br />
thing is we had some very good<br />
breakfast pizza served by Toni at<br />
Coyotes Café.<br />
We finished work on a balanced<br />
budget. This year we lost $10,600.00<br />
in property tax income. This was due<br />
to the rollback change and lowering<br />
of property values for next year. <strong>The</strong><br />
city lost $1,466,889.00 in property<br />
value for 2012-13. We were able<br />
to find a way to cut in certain areas<br />
but still had to increase the special<br />
assessments by about .49 cents per<br />
taxable value of your property. A<br />
$100,000.00 home increases around<br />
$25.00.<br />
We have declared 2 buildings to be<br />
a nuisance and will be working on<br />
the other 5 in the future. If you own<br />
an abandoned house I would suggest<br />
repairing it for habitation, sell it or<br />
tear it down.<br />
We shortened the dates for open<br />
burning but hope to have an area<br />
in town where you can dump the<br />
leaves. <strong>The</strong>re will be a small fee for<br />
a burn permit this year.<br />
As you noticed, we lost 4 trees in<br />
the square. Two have been replanted<br />
already. It was either cut them down<br />
or risk a lawsuit if they fell on a car<br />
or a person. Black ants were eating<br />
the nice looking one by the parking.<br />

What’s Happening<br />
“Don’t you pay like 15 percent<br />
in taxes on millions of dollars in<br />
income?” Dick asked<br />
“Actually, with all my charitable<br />
donations, my take-home pay is only<br />
about 60 percent of what I earn. I<br />
barely have eight-figures to spend<br />
on necessities and a few comforts<br />
each year.”<br />
“So how does a person get enough<br />
money that dividends and interest<br />
bring him an eight-figure annual<br />
income?” Dick asked.<br />
“I provided a valuable service<br />
reorganizing companies that needed<br />
different business plans.”<br />
“Didn’t one company go bankrupt<br />
after your business drained off tens<br />
of millions of dollars in fees?” Tom<br />
asked.<br />
“Well, you win some and some<br />
you don’t win as much.”<br />
“How is going bankrupt winning<br />
anything?” Tom asked.<br />
“Oh, right, the company that went<br />
bankrupt. I guess they didn’t really<br />
win anything. I was talking about<br />
myself. Say, your town here is really<br />
nice. All the trees are just the right<br />
height. You know what I like to do?<br />
I like to sing God Bless America.<br />
Let’s sing all three versus.”<br />
Tom and Dick got up and moved<br />
toward the door as Mitt began<br />

Mayors note to the City<br />
concern. <strong>The</strong>y do carry more weight<br />
if they are signed. We do not have<br />
the personnel that large cities have<br />
to do various things within the city.<br />
So we need to hire outside help. Our<br />
workers are doing a good job and<br />
will do better in the future. Those<br />
of you that want items painted or<br />
other small projects accomplished,<br />
VOLUNTEER and we will supply<br />
the items needed to “get er done”.<br />
<strong>The</strong> next meeting with the citizens<br />
will be the 28th of February. Come to<br />
the meeting 10 am at Sweet Things.<br />
Why not use the extra day we get<br />
this year for something constructive.<br />

HEALTH & NUTRITION<br />
From Iowa State University Extension<br />
By Holly VanHeel, MHA, RD<br />
Enjoy A Heart Healthy Diet<br />
Use this information as a guide to<br />
help you select heart healthy foods at<br />
the grocery store.<br />
• Produce: Aim for 5 or more<br />
servings of fruits and vegetables<br />
each day to help increase your<br />
soluble fiber<br />
intake. Studies show that doing<br />
so will lower cholesterol levels, help<br />
control blood pressure to lower the<br />
risk for developing heart<br />
disease. For maximum benefits, eat<br />
the skins and choose less processed<br />
varieties.<br />
Top Soluble Fiber Picks: apple<br />
with skin, carrots, orange, pear with<br />
skin, potato with skin<br />
Top Potassium Picks: banana,<br />
baked potato, okra, orange juice,<br />
tomato<br />
Top Antocyanins (blue and<br />
red pigment): blueberries, beets,<br />
cherries, red and blue grapes,<br />
eggplant, red<br />
cabbage, plums<br />
• Fish and Seafood Department:<br />
Aim for 3-5 servings a week. All<br />
are low in fat and calories, and<br />
certain varieties are the best source<br />
of omega-3 essential fats. Omega-3s<br />
will lower triglyceride levels, reduce<br />
blood clot formation and risk of<br />
arrhythmia, stabilize cell membranes<br />
of the heart and improve conduction<br />
of nerve fibers. Fresh and frozen<br />
selections are preferred. Drain, rinse<br />
and choose lower sodium canned<br />
selections to slash excess sodium.<br />
Best Catches: anchovies, herring,<br />
MEAT<br />
USDA Choice<br />
Charcoal<br />
Steaks<br />
Bone-in, Pork<br />
Shoulder<br />
Roast<br />
mackerel, oysters, salmon, sardines,<br />
and white fish<br />
• Plant-based Proteins: Aim for 25<br />
grams soyprotein daily. Studies show<br />
that consuming a lowfat, high-fiber,<br />
plant-based diet including 25 g or<br />
more of soy protein can stop, prevent<br />
and help reverse heart disease. Check<br />
the produce or health food sections<br />
of your store for tofu and the freezer<br />
section for the ‘burgers’ and new<br />
Quorn made from myco-protein,<br />
a derivative of the mushroom family<br />
With all processed foods, watch<br />
sodium content.<br />
Best Bets: all beans, peas and nuts;<br />
tofu; vegetable burgers, “chicken”<br />
patties and nuggets; soy sausage<br />
and bacon; Quorn products. FMI:<br />
www.quorn.com<br />
• Beans, Peas and Grains: Aim<br />
for whole grains. Beans, peas and<br />
grains are concentrated sources of B<br />
vitamins and soluble fiber – which<br />
has been shown to lower cholesterol,<br />
homocysteine and triglyceride levels<br />
– decreasing the risk for developing<br />
heart disease. Dried and frozen<br />
legumes are equally effective. Rinse<br />
and drain canned beans to lower<br />
sodium levels.<br />
Best Bets: all beans, all peas, oats,<br />
barley, brown rice, wild rice.<br />
Nuts and Seeds: Aim for 1-3 oz.<br />
daily worked into a healthful diet.<br />
Nuts and seeds are natural sources<br />
of vitamin E, fiber, plant protein,<br />
magnesium, and potassium – which<br />
are all heart healthy ingredients.<br />
<strong>The</strong> American Heart Association<br />
found almonds, in particular,<br />
3 69<br />
lb.<br />
1 lb.<br />
89<br />
USDA Choice<br />
Iowa Cut<br />
Top Sirloin<br />
Gold ‘N’ Plump<br />
Cut up<br />
Fryers<br />
favorably affect cholesterol levels<br />
and decrease cardiovascular risks by<br />
30 to 50%. Flaxseeds are the most<br />
concentrated plant source of hearthealthy<br />
omega-3 fatty acids (50%).<br />
Remember to use good portion<br />
control, buy dry roasted versus oil<br />
roasted and keep the salt low. Whole<br />
nuts and seeds keep well at room<br />
temperature in an airtight container<br />
up to one year. Keep ground varieties<br />
in the refrigerator up to 90 days.<br />
Best Bets: almonds, peanuts,<br />
walnuts, flaxseeds, sunflower seeds<br />
• Oils and Spreads: Aim for 3<br />
servings of medicinal margarine<br />
daily. Replacing saturated and<br />
hydrogenated fats with less saturated<br />
fat is more effective in preventing<br />
heart disease than reducing total fat<br />
intake. Medicinal margarine contains<br />
plant sterols to reduce total and LDL<br />
cholesterol levels when consistently<br />
consumed three or more times daily.<br />
If you prefer regular margarine, tub,<br />
whipped and spray margarine are<br />
less saturated than stick.<br />
Good Bets: canola oil; olive oil;<br />
Take Control; Benecol<br />
Better Bets: tub, whipped or spray<br />
margarine<br />
• Dairy: Aim for 2-3 fat-free<br />
servings daily. Choose skim milk or<br />
nonfat, light yogurt for maximum<br />
calcium and minimum sodium.<br />
Dairy products are rich sources of<br />
calcium, magnesium and potassium<br />
for controlling blood pressures.<br />
Best Bets: 1 cup skim milk; fat-free<br />
ricotta cheese; light, nonfat yogurt<br />

Here’s How It Works:<br />
Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes.<br />
To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fi ll each row, column<br />
and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box.<br />
You can fi gure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the<br />
numeric clues already provided in the boxes. <strong>The</strong> more numbers you name,<br />
the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!<br />

Mid-Iowa Insurance<br />
Adds New Company<br />
Total Weather Insurance (TWI) is<br />
helping Growers Manage Weather<br />
risks.<br />
In 2011, corn and soybean growers<br />
shared a common hurdle-extreme<br />
weather. From fl ooded fi elds to<br />
extended dry periods and from cold<br />
spring temperatures to heat stress,<br />
all varieties of extreme weather left<br />
their mark on yields and, ultimately,<br />
grower profi ts. This season <strong>The</strong><br />
Climate Corporation released<br />
enhanced products: Total Weather<br />
Insurance (TWI) Corn 2012TM<br />
and TWI Soybean 2012 TM which<br />
provide unprecedented protection<br />
for growers against extreme weather.<br />
TWI is based on target production.<br />
<strong>The</strong> product helps growers by<br />
insuring against bad weather that can<br />
cause yield shortfalls, and is designed<br />
to pay out for weather events at<br />
higher yields and more frequently<br />
than federal crop insurance. With<br />
TWI, payouts are based solely on<br />
occurrence of adverse weather;<br />
no documentation is required and<br />
payouts are independent of MPCI<br />
claims.<br />
Based on your location and crop,<br />
TWI may include coverage for the<br />
below perils:<br />
• Planting Rain protects<br />
against excessive precipitation that<br />
can delay timely planting and other<br />
fi eldwork.<br />
• Drought with Soil Moister<br />
Tracker TM protects against<br />
depleted soil moister that can limit<br />
reproductive success and yields.<br />
• Daytime Heat Stress<br />
protects against hot days that can<br />
reduce crop growth and result in<br />
yield loss.<br />
• Nighttime Heat Stress<br />
protects against warm nights that<br />
may result in diminished kernel<br />
growth due to increased respiration.<br />
• Excess Rain with Soil<br />
Moisture Tracker TM protects<br />
against excessive local rainfall that<br />
Kelly Walker of Des Moines was<br />
guest speaker at the Feb. 6 meeting<br />
of Signet Chapter No. 1, Order of the<br />
Eastern Star, at the Carroll Masonic<br />
Temple.<br />
Miss Walker chairs the Iowa<br />
Grand Chapter’s “Pathways” Lung<br />
Cancer Education project and also<br />
is a Past Grand Adah. Lung Cancer<br />
Education is the primary project of<br />
Iowa Grand Chapter this year. She<br />
cited as the top 5 causes of non-small<br />
cell lung cancer: smoking, radon,<br />
asbestos, radiation to the chest; and<br />
genetic factors. Her talk focused<br />
upon radon, a colorless, odorless and<br />
radioactive gas that forms naturally<br />
from the decay of radioactive<br />
elements found at different levels<br />
in soils and rocks throughout the<br />
world. After the meeting, members<br />
were given opportunity to purchase<br />
radon detecting kits, as a Grand<br />
Chapter fund-raising project.<br />
can lead to standing water with<br />
starves the crop of oxygen and<br />
promotes disease.<br />
• Early Fall Freeze protects<br />
against early fall freeze events that<br />
may damage plans before full yield<br />
potential is realized.<br />
TWI 2012 Program<br />
Enhancements<br />
<strong>The</strong> Climate Corporation has<br />
continued to invest deeply in research<br />
and development focused on the<br />
interaction between meteorological<br />
events and production agriculture.<br />
This investment has resulted in new<br />
features and coverage available<br />
to growers: TWI 2012 delivers<br />
protection with enhancements in two<br />
key areas:<br />
Precision Rain falls Grids TM<br />
• 2.5 x 2.5 mile rainfall grids<br />
– over 800,000 grids nationwide.<br />
• 25 times more granular<br />
rainfall measurement that TWI 2011<br />
• Powered by National<br />
Weather Service Doppler radar data<br />
that takes readings up to 1,300 times<br />
per second<br />
Soil Moisture Tracker TM<br />
• Daily assessment of<br />
excess rain and drought conditions<br />
throughout the growing season.<br />
• Estimates the amount of<br />
water entering the soil each day<br />
through rainfall and the amount<br />
of water leaving the soil each<br />
day though plant water use and<br />
evaporation for each Precision<br />
Rainfall Grid<br />
• Utilizes an ultra-high<br />
resolution agronomic database that<br />
describes soil type and soil depth for<br />
every 30 x 30 foot land grid across<br />
the continental United States.<br />

Love burgers? Nominate one<br />
to be Iowa’s Best Burger!<br />
Ames, Iowa– Iowa burger lovers<br />
are encouraged to join this year’s<br />
quest for Iowa’s Best Burger.<br />
Almost every Iowa restaurant,<br />
whether it’s the neighborhood Mom<br />
and Pop joint, or an exclusive white<br />
table cloth establishment, has some<br />
variation of the hamburger on their<br />
menu. So for the third year, the<br />
Iowa Cattlemen’s Association and<br />
the Iowa Beef Industry Council are<br />
kicking off their search for Iowa’s<br />
Best Burger.<br />
Today’s offi cial kickoff is taking<br />
place at the Iowa Beef Expo on<br />
the Iowa State Fairgrounds in Des<br />
Moines, and will continue through<br />
March 16.<br />
“We’re looking for the best burger<br />
served in an Iowa restaurant,” said<br />
Elaine Utesch, a Correctionville<br />
farmer who is chairman of the Iowa<br />
Beef Industry Council. Utesch, who<br />
is both a cow-calf producer and<br />
cattle feeder, said the entries need<br />
to be 100% beef burgers. “Although<br />
burgers are often standard fare,<br />
we know from experience that<br />
the winners of this contest serve<br />
fabulous burgers. <strong>The</strong>re’s nothing<br />
standard about them.”<br />

in West Des Moines Feb. 2-3 for<br />
the Iowa Farm Bureau Federation<br />
(IFBF) Speaker Corps. Members<br />

Opportunity Living is pleased to<br />
announce it will once again hold its<br />
annual Friend, Donor, & Volunteer<br />
Appreciation and Egg…Stravaganza<br />
on Saturday April 7th. Last year,<br />
Opportunity introduced the build-a<br />
basket silent auction and there were<br />
45 Easter baskets built and donated<br />
for the occasion. Everyone who<br />
participated had a great time creating<br />
and bidding on baskets. This year<br />
Opportunity Living is again inviting<br />
businesses, organizations and<br />
individuals to create and donate a<br />
basket for the auction. It is suggested<br />
the basket be at least a $25 value. Let<br />
your creative juices fl ow and build<br />
a basket which refl ects your own<br />
personality or a theme basket that<br />
fi ts your business or organization.<br />
<strong>The</strong> variety of baskets is part of what<br />
makes the event so much fun.<br />
Baskets should be completed by<br />
March 26th and taken to Opportunity<br />
and nomination procedures<br />
are on the Iowa Beef Industry<br />
Council’s website, www.iabeef.<br />
org. Nominations can also be made<br />
through the Iowa Beef Industry<br />
Council’s Facebook page.<br />
Utesch noted that restaurants<br />
are a valuable partner to the beef<br />
industry. “<strong>The</strong>y do a tremendous<br />
job of preparing and serving our<br />
beef products in delicious and<br />
creative ways. <strong>The</strong> burger is the all–<br />
American classic, and restaurants<br />
have done an excellent job in giving<br />
customers lots of choices when they<br />
order it.”<br />
<strong>The</strong> more nominations a burger<br />
receives, the better are the chances<br />
that it will be on the top 10 list<br />
announced in late March. Finalists<br />
will receive a certifi cate and be<br />
eligible for the secret taste-test of<br />
contest judges. <strong>The</strong> winner will be<br />
announced the fi rst week of May to<br />
kick-off Beef Month.<br />
Last year, 275 restaurants were<br />
named by 3500 nominations. <strong>The</strong><br />
winner was the Rusty Duck in<br />
Dexter, while Sac County Cattle<br />
Company of Sac City won the<br />
inaugural event in 2010.<br />
today’s farmers. Training covered<br />
media pitching, writing letters to the<br />
editor, presentation, social media and<br />
high-pressure on-camera television<br />
interviewing skills.<br />
“Farmers know they’ve got to<br />
show consumers who they are by<br />
broadening their reach with media<br />
and consumer groups. Building<br />
confi dence and providing tools<br />
to make that connection is the<br />
foundation of our training,” said<br />
Johns.<br />
<strong>The</strong> group also met with Des<br />
Moines Register Editorial Page<br />
Editor Randy Evans and Betsy<br />
Freese, a writer, editor and blogger<br />
for the Meredith Corporation’s<br />
“Living the Country Life.”<br />
While Speaker Corps training is<br />
held annually, Johns and Lilienthal<br />
provide customized training sessions<br />
for Farm Bureau counties, schools<br />
and organizations throughout the<br />
year.<br />

SUNNYVIEW<br />
Thank you to Jo Ann Maguire for<br />
this report. “When I walk into the<br />
‘Great Room’ at Sunnyview I look,<br />
in awe, at the very tall cornstalk<br />
plant on the north wall. It is at the<br />
edge of one of the beautiful large<br />
windows. It has been secured with<br />
a heavy string to help it stay upright,<br />
due to the height. With the help of<br />
Ted we measured the height at 10 ft.<br />
Amazing!<br />
<strong>The</strong> plant was given in memory<br />
of resident Carolyn Rodewald in<br />
2006. It was 2008 when Carene<br />
took a slip off the original plant to<br />
start a new one. She uses rain water<br />
and a touch of ‘Miracle Grow’ to<br />
work her magic. A year ago John<br />
helped her repot the corn stalk in a<br />
larger container with fresh soil. This<br />
story would not be complete without<br />
saying there are many green plants<br />
in the room. Not only do they help<br />
purify the air but they add a beauty<br />
that only a real, live, green plant can<br />
do. Thanks, Carene, for your ‘green<br />
thumb!’”<br />
Thank you to Jo Fickbohm,<br />
president of the Sunnyview resident’s<br />
group, for this report. “Sunnyview<br />
residents were entertained by Peggy<br />
Neubaum’s third grade students<br />
at 12:45 p.m. on Valentine’s Day.<br />
Around 40 kids did several group<br />
readings that pertained to Valentine’s<br />
Day. <strong>The</strong>y did a very good job and<br />
it is always refreshing to watch them<br />
perform. Thank you, young-uns!”<br />
Jo’s report continues. “Hall 1,<br />
consisting of Jo Fickbohm , Betty<br />
June Lindy, Jean Christensen, and<br />
Helen Huey, hosted a Valentine party<br />
on Feb. 14th for the residents. Fortyone<br />
resident s were in attendance.<br />
<strong>The</strong> theme of the party was ‘Let’s<br />
get acquainted.’ Two days before<br />
the party, questions were drawn at<br />
random from a hat. <strong>The</strong>se questions<br />
were about incidents or memories<br />
of the resident’s lives in the past.<br />
Some questions were very practical<br />
such as ‘How many different cars<br />
have you owned and which was<br />
your favorite?’ While others were<br />
more on the humorous side, such as,<br />
‘What is your earliest memory of a<br />
bath and did you have to share the<br />
water with others?’<br />
Some residents were a little<br />
apprehensive about using the<br />
audio system and talking on the<br />
microphone. One resident was<br />
overheard saying ‘Maybe we should<br />
rent a limo and get out of town so<br />
we don’t have to do it.’ Several<br />
others piped up and said “We’ll<br />
go with you.” As it turned out,<br />
everyone co-operated and took their<br />
turn speaking and it was a very<br />
entertaining evening. We did get<br />
better acquainted, as we learned<br />
about Jeanie Warneke’s ‘most hated<br />
road trip’ and Pauline Walters’<br />
‘scariest thing that ever happened to<br />
her.’ Thanks to everyone for your<br />
answers, you made the evening<br />
enjoyable and we had several good<br />
laughs.<br />
Homemade cake, soda, and coffee<br />
were served by Clarice Martz<br />
and Jean Christensen. Residents<br />
stayed a while after the program to<br />
reminisce and discuss some of the<br />
topics related to the questions that<br />
were asked earlier. Our next group<br />
activity is to be held in March by<br />
Hall 5. We are all looking forward<br />
to it.”<br />
SHADY OAKS<br />
One of the Shady Oaks’ residents’<br />
favorite activities is BINGO, which<br />
is held every Monday afternoon<br />
with volunteer Vicki Keonin.<br />
Two regular games of BINGO are<br />
played, followed by a game of<br />
BLACKOUT. This is no regular<br />
game of BLACKOUT though, as<br />
the winner gets a traveling BINGO<br />
trophy to keep until the next<br />
week! Other prizes for BINGO<br />
games are all edible, ranging from<br />
Cheetos, to candy bars, etc. <strong>The</strong>med<br />
BINGO games such as “CUPID” or<br />
“LUCKY” Bingo are held throughout<br />
the year as well. Pictured as our most<br />
recent BLACKOUT winner is Steve<br />
Rench. Steve has won two weeks in<br />
a row and felt very “lucky.” Lucky<br />
enough, in fact that he decided to<br />
purchase a Powerball ticket. His<br />
luck continued when he guessed the<br />
correct Powerball number “10” and<br />
Steve Rench<br />
received a free ticket. <strong>The</strong> next ticket<br />
unfortunately, was not a winner.<br />
How exciting that he is able to brag<br />
on his short winning streak though!<br />
Congrats Steve!<br />

KNOLL<br />
This week at Sunny Knoll we<br />
started our week off right with<br />
Bingo and Spa Day. On Tuesday<br />
we had a wonderful Valentines Day<br />
party. That morning we made marsh<br />
mellow pops. If you have never<br />
made this I recommend it! <strong>The</strong>y<br />
are so easy and yummy! We served<br />
the marshmallow pops and cookies<br />
as well as punch at the party. A co<br />
worker even let us borrow her punch<br />
fountain which added a nice touch.<br />
We crowned Gary Johnson as our<br />
king and Bertha Ewing as our queen.<br />
<strong>The</strong>y were both very surprised but<br />
pleased. On Wednesday we enjoyed<br />
a day of devotionals and Bible<br />
study. Thursday we got together for<br />
coupon club. If you can believe it we<br />
even have a couple guys that join<br />
us! Thursday afternoon I had a good<br />
group of ladies making bracelets.<br />
<strong>The</strong> popular colors seemed to be red<br />
and pink. Friday was full of social<br />
fun. Friday morning is always Men’s<br />
coffee and Friday afternoon is spent<br />
talking with friends over a bowl<br />
of ice cream. We hope everyone<br />
enjoyed their Valentines Day as<br />
much as we did!<br />

St. Anthony Nursing Home<br />
Recognized by U.S. News &<br />
World Report in 2012 Best<br />
Nursing Homes<br />
Washington D.C. – February 7,<br />
2012 – St. Anthony Nursing Home<br />
has received an exceptional, five<br />
star overall ranking in U.S. News &<br />
World Report’s annual Best Nursing<br />
Homes, released today. <strong>The</strong> U.S.<br />
News Ranking of Best Nursing<br />
Homes recognizes top-rated homes<br />
in all 50 states and offers important<br />
guidance to families and healthcare<br />
providers caring for people in need<br />
of a nursing home.<br />
“More than 3 million Americans<br />
will spend part of 2012 in a nursing<br />
home, and trying to decide under<br />
pressure which one is best isn’t<br />
easy,” says Avery Comarow, Health<br />
Rankings Editor. “Top-rated nursing<br />
homes are worth considering and<br />
deserve special recognition.”<br />
U.S. News’s evaluation of nursing<br />
homes is based on data from Nursing<br />
Home Compare, a consumer website<br />
run by the Centers for Medicare and<br />
Medicaid Services. <strong>The</strong> government<br />
agency sets and enforces standards<br />
for nursing homes (defined as<br />
facilities or portions of facilities<br />
enrolled in Medicare or Medicaid<br />
that provide 24-hour nursing care<br />
and other medical services). Homes<br />
earn an overall rating of one to five<br />
stars, as well as up to five stars in<br />
each of three underlying categories:<br />
health inspections, nurse staffing,<br />
and quality of care. U.S. News<br />
updates each nursing home’s ratings<br />
data quarterly.<br />
Of more than 15,500 homes rated<br />
and profiled on the U.S. News<br />
website, St. Anthony Nursing Home<br />
was among the fewer than 1 in 8 that<br />
received a five-star overall rating in<br />
all four quarters of 2011.<br />
Sherry Greteman, St. Anthony<br />
Nursing Home Director, stated,<br />
“This five-star ranking symbolizes<br />

Two Wartburg ensembles<br />
performing at regional<br />
choral directors conference<br />
Waverly, Iowa — Two Wartburg<br />
College ensembles will perform at<br />
the regional conference of college<br />
choral directors in Madison. Wis.,<br />
Feb. 10-12<br />
<strong>The</strong> North Central Division of<br />
the American Choral Directors<br />
Association Conference Concerts<br />
will feature the Wartburg Choir and<br />
the Castle Singers jazz ensemble<br />
<strong>The</strong> choir, under the direction of<br />
Dr. Lee Nelson, will be among three<br />
college choirs, a youth choir and a<br />
youth orchestra, performing “To Be<br />
Certain of the Dawn: A Holocaust<br />
Memorial Oratorio,” in the spotlight<br />
concert Friday in the 2,251-seat<br />
Overture Center for the Arts.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Castle Singers jazz ensemble,<br />
under the direction of Dr. Jane<br />
Andrews, will be among 12 groups<br />
performing in individual concerts,<br />
but the only jazz group.<br />
<strong>The</strong> NC ACDA includes choral<br />
programs in Iowa, Minnesota,<br />
Nebraska and the Dakotas. <strong>The</strong><br />
ACDA holds its national conference<br />
in odd-numbered years and has its<br />
seven regional gatherings in evennumbered<br />
years.<br />
“<strong>The</strong> theme of the conference is<br />
‘Beyond the Notes,’” said Nelson,<br />
director of Wartburg choral activities.<br />
“It’s all about the learning process<br />
rather than just the performance<br />
of great music. It’s what’s music<br />
education is really all about. <strong>The</strong><br />
whole conference deals with that at<br />
all different levels.”<br />
<strong>The</strong> Castle Singers were selected<br />
on the basis of an audition CD with<br />
three styles of music — an a cappella<br />
ballad, a swing number, and a Latin<br />
piece — representing its last three<br />
annual tours.<br />
“It’s peer selection,” Andrews<br />
said. “Other chorale directors listen<br />
to the auditions and select who<br />
should come.”<br />
<strong>The</strong> Castle Singers will perform<br />
six pieces — “a variety to show what<br />
jazz music is all about,” Andrews<br />
said.<br />
“We’ll do a swing piece, an<br />
improvisation, an a cappella ballad,<br />
two movements from the Jazz<br />
Mass that we commissioned for<br />
our European tour and Christmas<br />
with Wartburg — one is a samba,<br />
the ‘Gloria,’ and the other is blues,<br />
‘Agnus Dei.’ When you think of<br />
jazz, you don’t usually think of<br />
sacred music.”<br />
<strong>The</strong> 33-member ensemble will<br />
close with its signature piece,<br />
SEE OVER<br />
1,000 DISPLAYS!<br />
“Birdland.”<br />
Meanwhile, Nelson will direct<br />
more than 360 singers and<br />
instrumentalists from four states —<br />
including his 87-member choir — in<br />
an hour-long multimedia production<br />
about the Holocaust. Dr. Brian<br />
Pfaltzgraff, assistant professor of<br />
music at Wartburg, will be a soloist.<br />
<strong>The</strong> college ensembles —<br />
including those from Minnesota<br />
State University at Mankato and<br />
Nebraska Wesleyan University —<br />
will be joined by the Madison Youth<br />
Choirs (boys and girls) and the<br />
Wisconsin Youth Symphony.<br />
Father Michael O’Connell<br />
of the Basilica of St. Mary’s in<br />
Minneapolis commissioned the work<br />
by composer Stephen Paulus and<br />
librettist Michael Dennis Browne to<br />
commemorate the 60th anniversary<br />
of the end of the Holocaust in 2005.<br />
<strong>The</strong> production uses photographs by<br />
Russian-American Roman Vishniac<br />
to complement the music.<br />
Nelson previously conducted the<br />
oratorio in 2008 as director of the<br />
St. Cloud (Minn.) State University<br />
choir, which performed at the<br />
Natzweiler-Struthof concentration<br />
camp in present-day France, near the<br />
German border.<br />
He called it a “transformational<br />
experience.”<br />
“It makes the tragic history of<br />
the Holocaust very real for the<br />
performers and the audience alike,”<br />
Nelson said. “It tells the stories of<br />
those lost in the Shoah through the<br />
faces of the children in the Vishniac<br />
photographs. We look at the world<br />
through their eyes, we dialogue with<br />
them throughout the work, then we<br />
turn the lens and look at ourselves.<br />
It’s a nontraditional Holocaust work<br />
in that it is not an ‘in-your-face<br />
piece’ — not overly sentimental, not<br />
gory, but a true reflection on what<br />
happened and is really sincere.”<br />
<strong>The</strong> choir will take on different<br />
roles, Nelson added, as a Nazi<br />
soldier, a Jewish prisoner, the<br />
Christian alliance helping the Jews<br />
and “Christian guilt.” <strong>The</strong> children,<br />
who eventually become the “voice<br />
of God,” are involved at the behest<br />
of Father O’Connell.<br />
“He said, ‘Art transcends and<br />
transforms,’” Nelson remarked,<br />
“and his dream has been that young<br />
people perform and study this work.<br />
We are honored to keep that dream<br />
going.”<br />

Titan girls<br />
end season<br />
<strong>The</strong> South Central Calhoun girls’<br />
basketball team lost to a powerful<br />
Carroll Kuemper team, ending<br />
tournament play for the year but<br />
Head Coach Dave Birks appreciates<br />
the effort of the team during the 21 –<br />
44 loss at Carroll on Feb. 11.<br />
“I was extremely pleased with our<br />
effort, especially on the defensive<br />
end,” Birks said, “ <strong>The</strong> girls played<br />
with a lot of intensity. Unfortunately,<br />
we had trouble scoring against their<br />
sized and athleticism. <strong>The</strong> last game<br />
of the season is always rough.”<br />
Kori Assman and Haley Birks<br />
shared top scoring honors for<br />
the Titans with 8 each. Ashley<br />
Henkenius earned 3 points and<br />
Ashley Toms earned 2.<br />

Kevin Poen family receives Good Farm Neighbor Award<br />
During a ceremony recently in Lake City, Kevin Poen was presented with the Good Farm Neighbor Award by Jay Johnson, the Iowa<br />
Deputy Secretary of Agriculture and Land Stewardship. From Left to right: Brian Waddingham, Executive Director of the Coalition<br />
to Support Iowa’s Farmers, Kyle Poen, Tiffany Poen, Lynn Poen, Kevin Poen, Jay Johnson, IA Deputy Secretary of Agriculture and<br />

(<strong>Graphic</strong>-<strong>Advocate</strong> photo by Teresa Snyder)<br />
Iowa Secretary of Agriculture Bill Northey<br />
recently announced that Kevin Poen, a cattleman<br />
from rural Lake City is the winner of the February<br />
“Gary Wergin Good Farm Neighbor Award.”<br />
Jay Johnson, the Iowa Deputy Secretary of<br />
Agriculture, presented the award to Poen on Feb.<br />
17 at the Lake City Community Building.<br />
“Kevin is one of many livestock farmers in Iowa<br />
who do a great job caring for their animals, the<br />
land while also serving in their local community,”<br />
Northey said. “<strong>The</strong> Good Farm Neighbor Award is<br />
a great opportunity to recognize these farmers that<br />
make Iowa agriculture so special.”<br />
Kevin and Lynn Poen and their children Tiffany<br />
and Kyle operate the family’s row-crop, popcorn,<br />
alfalfa and beef cattle operation between Lake City<br />
and Yetter. Kevin is a fourth-generation farmer.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Poens were nominated for the award by their<br />
neighbor Darcy Maulsby saying, “Not only is he a<br />
successful farmer and livestock producer, but he is<br />
a progressive, community-minded Ag leader who<br />
is committed to creating a brighter future for rural<br />
Iowa.”<br />
Maulsby went on to say, “Kevin is always<br />
interested in finding new solutions to make his<br />
beef operation more efficient, and he is the kind of<br />
cattleman who works hard throughout the year to<br />
protect soil and water quality… He uses minimum<br />
tillage, terraces and waterways on his cropland to<br />
