Kiwanis Meeting for
September 25, 2006. Next
weeks meeting will have Payette
Extension Office’s new man on
board. Tony.
He had a nice display of knives
that he has collected over his life
time. The smallest being about
1inch long, the proudest one was
from Idaho Fish & Game for his
many years of service teaching
Hunter & Bow Safety classes, the
youngest childhood memory story
was the one he was given at age
5 that he proudly called his “Toad
Stabber,” and the name says it all.
The Brag can was busy
today, Max Grodon bragged on
Joel McGinley on coaches Max’s
grandson’s football team. Brian
Harris bragged on seeing some
large game down lower then
normal and is now predicting a
great hunting season. Which Joel
into telling one of his “Jokes”. Personally, I think it is
time for Kiwanis to implement a
“Joke Fee.” Scott Moscrip ended
the bragging can with brags on
City Crew, The Denton Family
and Payette County Sheriff
Department.
This past Friday a horse
decided to wander through the
end of town and topple over dead
in the Moscrip’s front yard. The
Denton’s covered the horse, the
sheriff’s deputy placed cones
around it and the city crew
worked promptly to remove
the horse. Mayor Moscrip and
Mrs. Moscrip would like thank
all those how helped out that
morning.
Our very own Rod
Tegethoff was the program today.
Rod’s funniest memory
was one year at the Idaho State
Fair in Boise, they had a claw
machine and for ten cents you
had a chance to pick up a pocket
knife. Rod said he was more than
successful on this game. Girl’s Soccer News
On a more positive note the girls went to Colombia and dominated,
as expected. Anna Pittman was able to play down on the JV and got the
opportunity to play in the offense for a change. She scored within the
first 5 minutes of the match. Lawren Stokes, Jianna Lingel and Beth
Jones had an outstanding game. Stokes played midfield. Lingel played
many differnt positions, while Jones continues to play in the middle of
the defense. The final score ended at 7-0 and Jones was asked to play
with the varsity. The Varsity had a rough start, but ended with a score
of: 5-0. Jones had an outstanding Varsity game too. There were even
two PK’s missed during the match and the score could have easily been
9-0. They are showing an obvious amout of improvement and love the
opportunity to play soccer.
Hunter safety is open
to children starting at age 10.
Children 10 and 11 years of age
parents are required to attend with
their child. Children 12 and older
parents are highly recommended
to attend. For more information on

The soccer girls are having
an exciting season, and are
competing closely with everyone. On Monday, the 18th, the girls traveled
to Bishop Kelly. Half of the team is suffering with illnesses, so the girls
are unable to play their best. The JV girls lost 0-5, but obviously they
girls have improved tremendously. The varsity suffered with a loss of 07. In the second half, Beth Jones got some Varsity playing time.
He shared with us his year
of experience teaching Hunter
Safety courses. 20 years Rod has
dedicated to our youth, teaching
the safety of guns and hunting
both in fire arms and bow hunting.
To him, Safety comes first.

Pilgrims Dominate in
WIC Opener
By Cody Johnson
Game Summary
The NPHS Football team, fresh
from a dominating performance last week at
Payette, evened their record at 2-2 (1-0 WIC)
with a 47-26 victory over the Parma Panthers
at Pilgrim Field on Friday night.
1st time, 18-17, the Pilgrims responded
by driving down the field, led by Mena’s
rushing and large running lanes created
by the powerful Pilgrim offensive line.
The drive was capped off with a 20 yard
touchdown run up the middle by FB Miguel
Garcia, making the score 24-18 Pilgrims.
The Panthers responded by driving down the
field again and scoring a touchdown and 2-pt
Conversion, taking the lead 26-24. Then the
Pilgrims stepped it up on Defense in the 4th
Quarter, shutting down the Panther offense
and forcing two turnovers, an interception by
Wes Hooten and another by Kyle Harmon.
The Pilgrims scored 3 touchdowns in the
final quarter, winning the game 47-26.

After a scoreless defensive struggle in
the 1st Quarter, the Pilgrims finally heated it
up with a 58 yard touchdown pass from QB
Eric Poole to WR Jesse Jordan, making it 7-0
early in the 2nd Qt. After a Parma punt and a
Pilgrim return of 40 yards by Daniel Mena,
the Pilgrims got good field position. Micah
McMurry, the Pilgrims starting Strong Safety
and Running Back, tweaked his ankle earlier
in the game and finally had to call it a day
during this series. McMurry still managed
43 yards on just 6 carries in the first 1 ½
Quarters of the game.

Daniel Mena scored on a screen pass
from Eric Poole for a 10 yard touchdown.
Shortly after, the Panthers fumbled the ball in
their own territory, setting up a 48 yard field
goal attempt by foreign-exchange student
Asterio Mira. The kick was just long enough
and sneaked through the left up-right to put
the score 17-0 Pilgrims. It was the second
longest field goal made in New Plymouth
High School Football history! The Panthers
finally got something going on offense
and moved the ball effectively against the
Pilgrims for the first time all day, scoring a
touchdown late in the 1st Half making the
Half-time score 17-6 Pilgrims on top.

VON CONTINUES
Tales of Old New Plymouth
By Von Gail Hamilton
This will be the last column on the end of
my marriage to Short Trevor. The hardest part of my
history to relive and write about. In ON LEAVING I
go into much more detail but will try to sum it up here
so others in the same type of distressing situation may
perhaps put their own thoughts in order.
Tommy came to me quietly one day. Would I
be very unhappy if he stayed with his Dad when I left.
He knew I would be less than a mile away and he could
come see me whenever he wanted. He’d slip over to
the store after school and maybe go home with me for
supper and a visit. He didn’t want his Dad to be lonely.
Short had obviously coached him. I asked him to let
me think about it for a couple of days. Short wasn’t
a bad man. I knew he loved his son. I could leave
Tommy with him on my terms. Always clean, welldressed, well-fed, not left alone. Short agreed.
Short’s campaign was in full swing. We
were doing more than dancing. He returned to being
the incurable romantic I’d married. I looked at it
differently. Be a little nicer to the maid if it looks like
she might quit. He didn’t see the basic problems. Was
resorting to phony-sounding sweet talk. Whether we
know it or not, and usually we don’t, it is the dcitatorguardian from whom I was struggling at last to be
free. We had to confront our absolute separateness
and aloneness. His Higg’s Inn trips daily translated
to abandonment. There was no “protective other”
anymore inside the dark room of my mind. No one
who would always take care of me and mine; no one
who would never leave me. He’d left us every time
he hauled himself off to Higgs. Now, I had withdrawn
from the marriage.
He still hadn’t marked the changes in me.
Dance with her, smile at her, even if that smile held a
falseness that was infuriating. We should have faced
each other squarely at an earlier point and talked openly
about the door that was slamming shut between us. I
couldn’t adequately explain the barrier. My words only
confounded him.
I remembered a time I was upset about the
way his boss was using him. I said, “The thing that
upsets me the most is - YOU’RE SO VERSATILE!”
I meant it. He really was. He didn’t speak to me for
three days. Finally, I approached him with the query,
“Tell me what I did or didn’t do so we can stop this
silent treatment.” He was angry because I called him
Versa-something. I had to explain that “versatile” was
a compliment, not a slam.
By Bill Knight
to get away with it. Somebody is going to discover the
imposter in me. Soon, I thought, somebody will tell
the world I’m a fraud on the writing scene. Either that
or somebody will decide my work is worth publishing.
Maybe not raunchy enough but basically good writing.
What is the point, I wondered, in wasting more
years, listlessly dodging bombs in a war that was over.
If I lose him as my enemy,however, on whom can I
blame all my future troubles? Yet, each time I tried
to talk to him about something serious, I saw the near
panic in his eyes. My desire to have a conversation was
like an injection of morphine. He would fall asleep, or
pretend to, right in his chair as I spoke.
To work my way out of this dilemma, I made
the decision that most of you would find unthinkable. I
left my son in the care of my husband. Nobody would
call me radical or crazy anymore and no one would
tell me I would be back for a third try at marriage to
him. Only later did I realize I’d been an entire year
in preparation for the day I left. I would be working
days and after school Tommy could come over to the
store where I would be getting off work in just a few
minutes. To my home for a good supper, a bath, do his
homework, and his father would pick him up around 9
to drive him back to the farm.
I wouldn’t be able to carry his limp body
up to bed after he’d fallen asleep on the couch. He
wouldn’t rare up in my arms again to blurt, “Grab
that elephant’s tail!’ and then snuggle down again,
fast asleep. I often wondered what that dream was all
about.
(by Von Gail Hamilton from her
Dec 2004 book ON LEAVING)
Von Gail Hamilton was born in Ohio and lived in Utah and
Arizona before moving to Idaho seven years ago. Her weekly
contributions to the New Plymouth News began in August
2004, with a “thank-you” from her blind dachshund, Junior,
who appreciated the kindness of his New Plymouth neighbors.
Junior addressed the community for about 26 weeks. When
he ran out of material, Von began publishing excerpts from the
many books she has written. She has submitted more than 90
columns. And so Von continues...
OLD FANNIE
By Bill Knight
As farm kids in New Plymouth we knew horses,
cows, pigs and chickens, and each of us had pets. Big
sister, Lois, had cats, and brother Buck and I had dogs.
His was Fannie, sort of a beagle rat terrier cross. Mine
was Tootsie, kind of a pretty little thing without much
individuality or personality. Fannie was all personality
and didn’t realize that she was supposed to belong to
Buck, except when we were riding horse back. Then
she would follow directly behind his horse every step of
the way, and when I say directly behind, it really doesn’t
describe it. She put her nose within a fraction of inches
from the horses’ heels, maintaining it constantly. I never
saw her dodge or get bumped. Otherwise she waited and
went with me.
I was a gopher trapper and always carried a
shovel. She waited by the shovel for me and automatically
followed when I picked it up. If we encountered a bull
snake she went on the attack. The snake could face her,
twisting and writhing and threatening all the way.
She would feint, dodge, jab, dodge, dance in
and out and you never saw such concentration, until she
could get a neck hold and then the shaking that followed
was what the term “fast and furious” was all about. It
was “take no prisoners”.
When I caught a live gopher it was pretty much
the same program. These were big blue pocket gophers
with brown front teeth half an inch long, and they were
fierce. I had my shovel and could easily dispatch either
snake or gopher, but that might appear to be depriving
Fannie of her assumed duty. As Dad said, she was a
dog and a half long and only half a dog high, but she
kept up on long jaunts, afoot or horseback, and where
possible chasing noisily after rabbits. That was a losing
endeavor.
No wonder I turned to an independent
pursuit out of exasperation. The good feelings writing
gave me and my full-time job bumped me out of
the dependency pattern. An agent I’d worked with
showed me my writing was basically good. A college
Literature Professor in Youngstown, Ohio had read and
encouraged my work. My brother-in-law, Bookie, had
read and critiqued. They were my mentors. My writing
couldn’t be useless if three erudite men had taken time
to read it and comment.
I was delighted to acknowledge my shiny
new capabilities. Secret fears persist that I’m not going

City receives special grant
Governor James Risch was in town on Friday and presented the City
with $50,000 to help loop the water on the North end of town in the
industrial park area. This will create more water availability and
pressure during extreme use, such as fires. This money comes from
the Idaho Department of Commerce and Labor’s rural block grant
fund, the same fund that gave New Plymouth $245,000 to put in the
roads, water, and sewer to get the industrial park started several years
ago.

Cooler, Wetter Weather Lifts
Fire Restrictions
Recent cooler, wetter weather has lifted fire
restriction and some road closures, opening access to
some big game units, but road closures remain in effect
in parts of the Boise National Forest.
The Forest Service reports that all road
closures in connection with the East Roaring Fire in the
Trinity lakes area north of Mountain Home have been
lifted. But forest roads 172 and 129 still are carrying
fire traffic and crew shuttles, and drivers should use
caution in that area.
Land managers across southern Idaho have
lifted fire restrictions in effect for the Boise, Payette
and Salmon-Challis national forest lands, areas within
the Frank Church-River of No Return Wilderness and
the northern portion of the Sawtooth National Forest,
and BLM and state and private lands in southern Idaho.
That means campers, hunters and others again
may build campfires on public lands. But they are urged
to ensure their campfires and warming fires are totally
out before leaving them unattended. Even with shorter
days, cooler weather, and some recipitation, forests and
grasslands are still dry and remain susceptible to new
fires.
Hunters and others heading into the
ackcountry, are advised to check with local county
sheriffs or Forest Service Ranger Districts for
updates on road closures and backcountry access.

closures and hunt units go to: http://ishandgame.idaho.

vCoeur d’Alene Kokanee Fishery Closed
ecord low numbers of kokanee in Coeur d’Alene Lake
have prompted Idaho Fish and Game officials to close
the lake to kokanee fishing, effective immediately, to
protect future fishing opportunities.
Summer population estimates showed only
23,200 mature kokanee in the lake and another 66,700
two-year-old fish that would be next year’s spawners.
Normally kokanee number several hundred thousand
mature fish and more than a million two-year-old fish
during the July trawl estimate.
Two options were considered:
·
An immediate closure of the kokanee fishery lake
wide.
·
A partial closure of the lake.
Because kokanee are especially vulnerable to
fishing pressure in the fall, little time was available
for public comment. Of 50 anglers who commented
on the proposals, 74 percent supported a closure and
66 percent favored a complete closure of the kokanee
fishery lakewide.
Three factors have led to the record low
numbers of kokanee in Coeur d’Alene Lake. Initially,
record floods in 1996-1997 flushed many fish out of
the lake. Reduced numbers of kokanee resulted in a
dramatic increase in size from 10 - 11 inches to 14 - 16plus inches.
Increased kokanee size attracted more anglers
and harvest increased. Coeur d’Alene Lake was the
number one fishery in the state in 2003 largely because
of the kokanee fishery.
Chinook numbers have also increased in recent
years. From 1998 to 2001 the average number of wild
and hatchery Chinook combined was about 29,000 fish
per year. From 2002 to 2006 the number of Chinook
increased to 69,000 per year. Predation on young
kokanee increased.
If the changes are made, Coeur d’Alene
kokanee is expected to bounce back quickly. Numbers
of kokanee fry and one-year old fish have been near
normal.
Fish and Game, Governor
Announce Domestic Elk Hunt
The Idaho Department of Fish and Game and Idaho
Gov. Jim Risch announced Friday, September 15,
a series of emergency depredation hunts to remove
escaped domestic elk in Fremont County on the lam for
more than a month.
The first hunt will start Tuesday, September
19, and run through Monday, September 25, on national
forest land within big game unit 62 south of Fall River
and north of Bitch Creek.
Risch, in a September 7 executive order,
authorized the Idaho Departments of Agriculture and
Fish and Game to try to kill an estimated 75 to 160
domestic elk that escaped in early August from a
commercial domestic elk operation in eastern Idaho.
So far, Fish and Game and Agriculture officials
have shot 15 elk, but now the agencies are asking
licensed hunters and private landowners for help. A
bowhunter also shot one during the archery-only season
open in the area.
The depredation hunt will include private
landowners and randomly selected hunters with valid
Teton elk management zone A tags to participate.
Hunters who do not have Teton elk tags may sign up at
the Idaho Falls Fish and Game office to be put on a list
in case additional hunters are needed.
Hunters who shoot an ear-tagged, domestic
elk need not validate and attach their elk tag, Fish and
Game Director Steve Huffaker said. But the department
would like to get blood and tissue samples from the
domestic elk to test for diseases and genetic origins.
The hunt will be conducted in sequences:
September 19-25; September 26-October 2; and
October 3-14. Fifty hunters will be selected for each
hunt. Additional hunts will be conducted if necessary.
In the interest of public safety, Fish and Game
will order an emergency closure of the current archeryonly hunt within the depredation hunt area.
State Fish and Game and Department of
Agriculture officials have suspended their efforts to
shoot the escaped domestic elk. Conservation officers,
however, will monitor the depredation hunts and shoot

any domestic elk incidental to patrols, said Steve
Schmidt, Upper Snake regional supervisor.
Elk appear to be dispersing, especially since
the rut is on, and a larger number of hunters can now
be more effective at removing the domestic elk. The
department appreciates the help of landowners and
hunters who are willing to pursue and remove the
domestic elk.

Sage Grouse Season Still
Closed in Owyhee County
The Idaho Department of Fish and Game reminds
upland bird hunters that the sage grouse season in
Owyhee County west of the Bruneau River is closed.
The sage grouse hunting season opened
elsewhere in the state on Saturday, September 16, and
remains open.
The area was closed in response to mortality
from West Nile virus in three parts of the county. Fish
and Game biologists have found unusual numbers of
radio-marked sage grouse dead this year, and there
have been numerous reports of dead sage grouse from
the public.
As the hunting season on the Duck Valley
Indian Reservation, adjacent to Owyhee County on
the Idaho-Nevada border, was closed in August after
a number of sage grouse died from West Nile virus
within the reservation.
Only two birds infected by West Nile have
been found outside of Owyhee County, and there
have been no reports of unusual numbers of dead sage
grouse this summer.
Hunter check stations, run by department
personnel in many areas, will collect blood and wings
from harvested birds to help monitor sage grouse health
and numbers.
West Nile virus is a mosquito-transmitted
disease, and hunters should protect themselves from
mosquitoes while hunting. As always, wild game,
including sage grouse, should be cooked thoroughly
before it is eaten to ensure that any bacteria or viruses
are killed.
Hunters are reminded that a permit to hunt
sage grouse is required in addition to a valid 2006
hunting license. The permit costs $1.75 and is available
at Fish and Game license vendors.

Hunting Private and Public
Land—Know Before You Go
By Mike Demick—Idaho Department of Fish
and Game
As the fall hunting season approaches, the
Idaho Department of Fish and Game gets hundreds of
calls about public land access. Many hunters want
information about public land boundaries, maps, access
and camping information.
Except for wildlife management areas around
the state, Fish and Game manages little land. But
several other state and federal agencies govern Idaho’s
public lands. Each of these agencies has specific rules
and regulations and can furnish detailed maps showing
access roads, trails and camping areas.
While a lot of public land is available
to hunters, some of the best hunting areas are on
private land. These lands play a key role in wildlife
conservation because many species of wildlife utilize
private land habitat for much of the year.
Idaho’s wildlife belongs to all residents, but
everyone should respect the landowner’s rights and
always ask first to hunt and fish on private property.
In fact, it is against the law for any person to enter
privately owned land to take any wildlife by hunting,
fishing or trapping without first obtaining permission
from the landowner. A violation of this law could result
in the loss of hunting, fishing, and trapping privileges
for up to three years.
Trespass violations are costly, not only
in terms of money and time, but also in terms of
future opportunity. Many landowners, frustrated
with trespassing hunters have permanently closed
their property to hunting by anyone. So this fall, be
responsible and respect private property owners by
always asking them for permission.
Responsibility, of course, is an important
attribute of good hunting. But each year Fish and
Game is confronted with landowner complaints related
to hunters who exhibit irresponsible behavior when
hunting near or within private lands.
“Many times the complaint centers on
littering, trespassing, making tire ruts in muddy
fields, shooting from a motor vehicle or shooting too
close to livestock,” landowner-sportsmen coordinator
Dave Beaver said. “Whatever the complaint, most
circumstances boil down to a lack of common sense
and lack of respect.”
With several upland game bird seasons already
in progress and the general deer hunting season starting
October 10, it is especially important that hunters act
responsibly. Hunters can help eliminate the negative
label of “slobs” that sometimes gets tacked on some
hunters, by making it a priority to respect the rights of
landowners.
Landowner permission should be obtained
each hunting season. A common mistake is to assume
that because permission was given last year, the same
applies this year. Hunters and landowners should both
clearly understand what “permission” is being given.
For example, is permission being given for a single
day and only to hunt deer, or is it for the season to hunt
deer, elk and upland game birds? Always know before
you go.
Additionally, by asking permission every
time one hunts, hunters can adhere to the landowner’s
wishes. Many times this involves keeping safe
distances from livestock and buildings, closing gates,
keeping vehicles off muddy roads and knowing where
and where not to hunt.

how to solve a wildlife case.
The event is open to fifth through eighth graders and
costs $15 to cover the cost of supplies. Call 334-2225
to register in advance; space is limited.
When the hunt is completed, make sure to thank the landowner for allowing access and report any
damage to fences or gates that you find. Often times,
hunters will send a thank you card later or offer to do
something for the landowner, such as helping with
chores.
Domestic elk tested for
disease, genetics
Never forget that you are a guest on the
owner’s property and hunting or fishing on these lands
is a privilege, not a right.

Idaho state officials are gathering and testing
samples from domestic elk that escaped in early
August from an eastern Idaho game farm and were shot
recently in an all-out effort to keep them from mingling
with wild elk.
An estimated 75 to 160 domestic elk escaped
from Rex Rammel’s operation near Ashton. Teams of
officials from Idaho departments of Fish and Game
and Agriculture shot about 15 of the animals before
enlisting the aid of hunters in a series of emergency
depredation hunts that began September 19.
Hunters participating in the depredation hunt
area are encouraged to provide samples to Fish and
Game officers in the field, Billy Joe’s Taxidermy in
Tetonia or the Fish and Game office in Idaho Falls.
Hunters will be notified directly if tests show disease
in their animals. State officials will continue to sample
domestic and wild elk shot in the depredation hunt
area.
Officials are using the same sampling protocol
on the killed domestic elk that would be used for wild
elk. Initial results of tests for disease and genetic red
deer hybridization are expected over the next two
weeks.
The department of Agriculture supplied the
most current inventory of Rammel’s herd with which to
compare the identification of animals that were killed.
The objectives of the sampling are to:
Verify identification.
Test for diseases.

Test for genetic purity.
Evaluate carcass quality for donation to local charities.
The sample collection involved seven shooting
teams and two carcass salvage teams. Each animal is
assigned a unique identification number to follow with
all samples taken from that animal. Identification tags
for this purpose were supplied by the Ag Department.
Samples are being processed at the Wildlife
Health Laboratory:
Ears with identification tags intact, muscle
and hair samples will be frozen at the Wildlife Health
Laboratory for future genetic and DNA analysis,
if needed. Blood samples will be analyzed for
elk hybridization at Bova-Can Lab in Saskatoon,
Saskatchewan, Canada.

ITD provides law enforcement overtime help with DUI
campaign
BOISE - Many Idaho law enforcement
agencies took advantage of overtime help from the
Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) and increased
patrols to arrest impaired drivers in August and over the
Labor Day weekend, according to Kevin Bechen with
ITD’s Office of Highway Safety.
In Idaho, driving with a blood alcohol content
of .08 or higher is illegal -- .02 for drivers younger than
21. Violators face jail time, substantial fines, loss of
driving privileges and higher insurance rates.
The discovery of six partially butchered
pronghorn antelope carcasses has prompted
the Idaho Department of Fish and Game to
seek public assistance s asking the public for
information to bring the poacher to justice.
Washington, DC – Rural residents of
southwestern Idaho will receive continued support
in the effort to stop domestic violence. Today, Idaho
Senator Mike Crapo applauded a U.S. Department of
Justice grant of $707,368
“Because of federal funding through the
National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, ITD
can work with Idaho law enforcement agencies to help
reduce drunk driving crashes and needless injuries and
fatalities,” Bechen said. “We provide money to help
with overtime and alcohol sensing equipment for DUI
patrols.”
Public’s Help Sought in
Antelope Wasting Case
Only portions of meat from each carcass
had been removed, making this a game meat
“wanton waste” offense. “The heads of both
bucks had been removed, and black vinyl tape
was discovered wrapped around the left ear of
each of the remaining four antelope,” Brazie
noted. Additional evidence is currently being
Hope’s Door in Caldwell receives $707, 368 in federal

With a little more than half of the 27
participating law enforcement agencies reporting in, the
campaign has led to 110 DUI arrests for the five-week
period, Bechen said. He added that 86 law enforcement
officers worked 1,620 overtime hours as part of the
effort.
Any parasites found will be collected and
identified as needed.
A call to the Citizens against Poaching
(CAP) hotline led conservation officer Rob
Brazie to the antelope carcasses at the summit
of Horseshoe Bend Hill on State Highway

antelope were dumped in a pile a short
distance from the roadway.

CRAPO JOINS CANCER
ACTIVISTS ON NATIONAL
MALL
Pledges continued support for cancer research
Washington, DC – Today Idaho Senator Mike
Crapo joined with other Idaho cancer survivors on
the National Mall as part of the “Celebration on the
Hill,” an annual event sponsored by the American
Cancer Society Cancer Action Network. Crapo met
with cancer activists from Blackfoot, Boise, Burley,
Coeur d’Alene, Eagle, Heyburn, Homedale, Idaho
Falls, Mountain Home, Pocatello, Post Falls, Shoshone,
Silverton and Twin Falls to discuss federal funding for
cancer research and congressional priorities.
“As a two-time cancer survivor, I share a very
personal connection with you,” Crapo told the group
assembled in a tent near the Reflecting Pool on the
National Mall. “It is important that we work together
to actively defeat cancer and promote cancer awareness
and education. Cancer touches so many lives in our
country, killing 1,500 people every day, striking one
of two men and one out of three women. But with the
investments we have made in research, prevention, and
early detection and care, people are living with cancer
and beating this disease rather than dying from it. I
will continue to actively work to educate my fellow
Senators and to push for policies and funding that will
allow us to continue to make progress against this
disease.”
Crapo has signed the Congressional Cancer
svPromise, which sets out a four-pronged agenda
to make health system reform a priority, elevate
prevention and early detection efforts, increase research
commitments and expand access to care. Crapo,
who has survived two bouts with prostate cancer, is a
recognized advocate for cancer prevention and hosts
yearly health awareness booths at regional fairs in
Idaho.
AFTER THE FIRE
Guest opinion submitted by Idaho Senator Mike
Crapo
In early August, I toured active fire sites in Idaho.
Even then, before increased fire activity late in
the month, it was easy to predict what September
would look like: the fires multiplied and are still
burning today. These disasters reinforce the fact that
responsible forest management must happen before and
after the fires.
Idaho and the West are experiencing the worst
fire season on record. Idaho’s rainfall is at a record
low. As of September 19, more than 82,000 wildfires
have consumed more than 8.8 million acres nationwide
this year alone; Idaho ranks third this year in number of
acres burned.
We all know the tragic outcome of unplanned
wildland fire: destroyed property, degraded air quality,
fish and wildlife habitat damage and safety threats to
lives and communities.
Fire plays a valuable role in our ecosystem;
however, in many cases we aren’t talking about normal,
healthy, ecosystems. Fires resulting from unnatural
fuel loads do tremendous damage to our forests. With
the current state of our forests, this happens all too
often. reduction is lengthy and oftenstymied by lawsuits.
While the critical work of HFRA is
implemented, additional storms, fires and other
natural events are contributing to the backlog of more
than one million acres of national forests in need of
reforestation. We have a situation that applies not
just to fires, but to the aftermath of other catastrophic
natural disasters, such as the tornado that tore through
Idaho’s Payette National Forest in June ruining
nearly 5,000 acres of public and private forested land.
Catastrophic destruction can happen slowly as well:
insect infestation is all too evident in the tell-tale dead
and dying timber peppering our forests. The forested
acres affected by these events will remain in danger
even after the flames are extinguished.
On August 2, I held a hearing on the Forest
Emergency Recovery and Research Act of 2006
(FERRA). Federal officials, local and state leaders,
scientists, foresters, the environmental community
and private interest groups testified at the hearing, and
I’m convinced that the tools in FERRA are needed to
address this crisis in our woods.
FERRA looks toward restoration by
providing federal land managers with tools to respond
immediately following forest disaster, limiting the
negative effects on neighboring communities. This
forward planning means disaster recovery plans that
contain pre-approved management practices.
Additionally, FERRA requires forest health
partnerships with colleges and universities when
establishing post-catastrophe research projects and
requires development of independent, third-party peerreviewed research protocols.
FERRA recognizes that without responsible
and responsive recovery efforts in the immediate
aftermath of disaster, a forest becomes more
susceptible to additional fire and pest outbreaks that
threaten families and wildlife that live in and around
our natural resources.
As we work to rebuild after the worst forest
fire season in years, we need to take stock of what
is working and what isn’t. We must continue to
implement the good work that HFRA directs, and
we must complete the cycle of responsible forest
management with effective post-disaster recovery
that reduces the risk of devastation in the future. This
recovery must begin when the last flame dies out, not a
moment
In 2004, Congress enacted the Healthy
Forests Restoration Act (HFRA) to improve
forest management. HFRA provides federal land
managers with tools necessary to focus forest health
improvements on sensitive rural-urban interface
areas, near municipal water sources, in threatened and
endangered species habitat, and where disease or insect
nfestations threaten adjacent private lands.
Progress is being made to limit risk on federal lands.
Unfortunately, the process of treating forests for fuels

IDAHO SHOWS
4 ½ % ANNUAL
INCREASE IN JOBS
Crapo hails economic report released
today
Washington, DC – A new
federal report released today shows that
Idaho had the nation’s third-largest jump
in over-the-year percent increase
for payroll employment. The
numbers released by the U.S.
Department of Labor show Idaho
with a 4.4% increase for the year,
trailing only Nevada (5.3%) and
Arizona (4.6%).
“The Mountain West, and
Idaho in particular, remains the
strongest area of job growth in the
nation,” noted Idaho Senator Mike
Crapo. “Our continued economic
growth shows the tax relief and
our nation’s monetary policy
are working. Interest rates have
held steady and we are working
to maintain this pro-growth tax
policy and to prevent any tax
increases that would lead to a
slowing of the economy.”
The Labor Department
report offers an August-to-August
look at the national economy
and job creation. Idaho’s
unemployment rate of 3.3%
continues to rank well-below
the national average of 4.7%.
Idaho’s rate is down nearly half a
percentage point in the last year,
from 3.7% to 3.3%.
“We are finally seeing the
expected seasonal decrease in
gasoline prices and the Federal
Reserve is holding the line on
interest rates for consumers.
In the past 12 months, 1.7
million jobs have been created
nationwide. While some of our
rural areas continue to experience
difficulties, I am hopeful this
upswing in job creation will
continue to spread across Idaho
and America,” Crapo concluded.

Idaho Military Service
Senate.”
Idaho students have opportunity
to learn about Military Service
Academies.
Washington, DC – The Idaho Congressional
Delegation is pleased to host the Sixth Annual Service
Academy Day in Idaho on October 7th. Events
will be held simultaneously in Boise and Coeur
d’Alene. The purpose of these gatherings is to share
information with students, parents, and counselors
about the Congressional nomination process for the
United States Military Academy at West Point, NY; the
U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, MD; the U.S. Air
Force Academy in Colorado Springs, CO and the U.S.
Merchant Marine Academy in Kings Point, NY. While
a Congressional nomination is not needed to attend the
U.S. Coast Guard Academy, representatives have been
invited to share information about this school as well.
This year forums are being held in Coeur
d’Alene and Boise. Participants can meet with
Academy Liaisons, Cadets, and Midshipmen and
hear about each academy and learn how to apply for a
Congressional Nomination.
The Service Academy Day locations on
Saturday, October 7th are as follows:
Coeur d’Alene – Administration Building,
451 Government Way, Rooms 1A and 1B, 9:30 a.m.
- Noon
Boise – Boise High School, 1010 Washington
Street, 9:30 a.m. – Noon
“The U.S. Service Academies have a long
tradition of excellence in education and training of our
nation’s leaders to include not only military leaders but
also leaders in business, technology, and industry,” said
Senator Mike Crapo. “Graduates receive an education
that is second to none which serves them in their
military career and gives them a competitive edge in
applying for graduate school or in the job market.”
“Our service academies have a long tradition
of developing the minds and physical abilities of our
brightest students to become officers in the service of
the United States military,” said Senator Larry Craig.
“I consider my nominations to the military academies
to be both a privilege and one of my most enjoyable
responsibilities as a member of the United States
“Academy nominations give Idaho’s finest
students the opportunity to serve their country, receive
an elite college education and get a jump-start on
a good career,” said Congressman Mike Simpson.
“Idaho consistently ranks among the top states in the
quality of its nominations and we’ll be looking to
continue that record.”
“It is a pleasure to nominate Idaho students to
our service academies,” said Congressman C.L. “Butch
Otter. “Nominees are selected based on academic
performance, extracurricular activities, physical fitness,
demonstrated leadership abilities and desire to serve
our country.”
For more information, contact: Mick Webster, Senator
Craig’s office, (208) 523-5541
Crapo’s office, (202) 224-0851

Linda Culver,

The deadline to make application through one of the
Idaho Delegation offices for the class entering in 2007
is October 31, 2006.
Reminder Academy
Services
The deadline to apply for admission to
U.S. military academies is fast approaching,
Idaho Senator Mike Crapo reminds interested
Idaho students. Applications for the nation’s
four military academies must be submitted
by Tuesday, October 31st, to be considered
for the class entering in 2007. Every year,
Crapo nominates selected Idaho students to
the following: the U.S. Air Force Academy,
Colorado Springs, Colorado; the U.S.
Merchant Marine Academy, Kings Point, New
York; the U.S. Military Academy, West Point,
New York; and the U.S. Naval Academy,
Annapolis, Maryland. Interested students
need to submit an application and references
and meet certain scholastic requirements for
consideration in the next academic year. The
final admission selections are made by the
individual academies.
“Idaho students who have been accepted
to our nation’s military academies are following in
a fine tradition,” Crapo said. “The four academies
maintain some of the highest academic standards and
programs in the country, and the learning environment
and opportunities are unparalleled. With the deadline
coming up, I encourage Idaho students to complete
their application materials and turn them in so that they
may be considered.”
Students may apply to both United States
Senators and the U.S. Representative from their
congressional district as well as the Vice President of
the United States. The names of students nominated
by Crapo will be forwarded to each service academy,
where final appointments are made by the individual
institution. Those wishing to apply for a nomination to
the next class, entering in 2007, should contact Crapo’s
military representative, Linda Norris, at (202) 2240851 or go to Crapo’s official website at http://crapo.

Food Safe Informer
Refrigeration
By C. J. Soltis
Southwest
Health
&
District
Consumer Protection Programs
Every refrigerator has it,
whether it is the opened bottle of
spaghetti sauce or the half-eaten package
of deli meat. . . it’s the mystery food.
Mystery food is that item you can’t
remember when it was opened or when
you last used it. Many of us just shut
the door to worry about it later or grow
lab experiments that may be harmful to
our health. Here are some guidelines to
take the mystery out of your cold food
storage.
First and Foremost--Chill!
Make sure the temperature in your
refrigerator is 40 °F or below and
0 °F or below in the freezer. Use a
refrigerator/freezer thermometer to
check if your appliance maintains the
proper storing temperature. Harmful
bacteria grow most rapidly in unsafe
temperatures between 40 and 140 °F—
so it’s important to keep food out of this
temperature range.
The United States Department
of Agriculture (USDA) recommends the
following cold food storage time frames
to reduce your risk of a food-related
illness. Additional refrigeration holding
information can be found at www.
foodsafety.gov/~fsg/f01chart.html.

You should also regularly clean
out your refrigerator to help combat the
mystery food issue. A good time to do
this is before grocery shopping. Start by
throwing out the perishable food items
that should not be eaten. When possible
try using the First In First Out, or FIFO,
method of storage. When in doubt,
throw it out!
In addition, always review
the dates that are marked on most food
containers purchased from the grocery
store. But what do the phrases of “use
by” or “sell by” mean?
•
“Sell-By” is the date that
informs the store how long to display the
product for sale. You should purchase
the product before the date expires
•
“Best if Used By” or “Use-By”
is the date recommended for best flavor
or quality and is not a purchase or safety
date. This date is determined by the
manufacturer, and does not tell how long
the food will be good.
•
“Expiration Date” is the last
date that food should be eaten, except
for eggs; this is the last day the eggs
may be sold at the store.
Here are some additional tips to
help keep your food safe.
•
Do not buy food past the “SellBy,” “Use-By,” or other expiration dates
•
When shopping, purchase
refrigerated or frozen items after
selecting non-perishables (shelf stable
foods) so they are the last thing you
purchase before leaving the store.
•
Refrigerate or freeze
perishables, prepared food, and
leftovers within 2 hours of purchase
or preparation or within 1 hour if the
temperature is above 90 °F.
•
Thaw food in the refrigerator.
For quick thawing, submerge in cold
water in airtight packaging, or thaw
in the microwave, and cook the food
immediately.
•
Do not open your refrigerator
or freezer door more than necessary to
18 NEW PLYMOUTH NEWS Health Tips
keep the temperatures at proper storing
temperatures. Keep perishable foods on
shelves in the refrigerator, rather than on
the door, since the temperature on the
door fluctuates more.
•
Do not overstuff your
refrigerator. Cold air must circulate
around food to keep it at proper
temperatures.
By following these guidelines,
you can Be Cool to eliminate the
mystery food in your refrigerator; reduce
wasting food and money; and reduce
the risk of food borne illness to you and
your family.
Cardiac
Mortality in
Women
Jim Callis, MPAS, PA-C
What do we think of, when it
comes to women, that causes the most
deaths? If you listen to a lot of medical
providers and all the concern for this
screening and that screening, one would
gather that cancer had the highest
mortality in females. This is in fact not
true. The number one killer of women in
the United States is from cardiac-related
disease.
The highest risk group is in
women between the ages of 45 and 89.
For women between the ages of 45-64,
one in nine will experience a cardiac
event. For women over 65, this ratio
rises to an astounding one in three! Not
only do women have a higher mortality
from a heart attack than men, but they
also are less likely to recover from an
event.
Some studies have shown that
women may present to the clinic with
different signs and symptoms than what
are typically thought of as heart attacks.
Men will show up with chest pain,
shortness of breath, pain radiating up
neck, down left arm, their heart will be
racing and they will be nauseated, all
pale and sweaty. Women can show up
with these symptoms too, and it is much
straighter forward. Some may only have
weakness, fatigue, nausea and shortness
of breath. Because of this they may wait
too long because of the vagueness of
symptoms or the medical provider might
not consider it in their differential of
potential causes. This is also confirmed
by the fact that many women typically
ISSUE 140
receive less screening for cardiac events
previous to their first event. One study
has also suggested that is due to “overreferral” of men with lower risk profile.
Risk factors for Cardiac
events include family history,
obesity, inactivity, smoking, alcohol
consumption, high cholesterol, high
blood pressure, diabetes, stress level,
coping mechanisms and hormonal
status.
A heart attack–or as we call it,
a myocardial infarction–is the loss of
blood flow to parts of the heart. Loss of
blood flow to certain parts of the heart
can be less life threatening, depending
on how much flow is lost. Loss of blood
flow to heart muscle naturally causes
tissue death. This tissue death can cause
dysfunction of the heart to pump out
oxygenated blood to the body. If it is a
small area, or perhaps an area that does
not include the most important sections
of muscle, then a person may survive
the heart attack. If signs and symptoms
are not ignored, and are treated properly,
than a person may be able to survive as
well.
Like usual, an ounce of
prevention is worth a pound of recovery.
Heart attacks can be very painful and
scary experiences. Some people think
of diet, exercise and other forms of
prevention to be just as scary, but at
least those things may not kill you.
One never knows when we are to go,
but it certainly does not help to hurry it
along by having a lifestyle that speeds it
along! It is true that sometimes perfectly
healthy and in shape people die young
no matter how much preventative
maintenance is done. I’d rather not
leave it to chance and at least try to be
healthier, and I hope you do too.
Please call your medical
provider if you have any questions
concerning cardiac mortality and how
you can reduce your risks. You can also
contact Dr. Farrell or I, we are located in
New Plymouth across from the Library.

us. Where were you?? I’m sure you just

there. Or call and let me know what you

Recycling Reminder
Because of the huge success of people re-cycling
the newspaper we would like to urge everyone
to bring the newspapers now strictly to VFHC,
located across from the Library. The Post office
is nolonger willing to support our community in
this task because it is not using the facility as it
is intended. I am told “we are not a re-cycling
center”. We regret that they are nolonger willing
to help in our community, but we will drive on
in making our community a better place despite
this small setback. Thank you everyone for your
continued support and keep those papers comming
