Blessing, A Foster Care Ministry
What started out as a
small local ministry project
to gather 30 “Blessing Bags”
for a local foster agency, has
quickly grown to support 3
different foster agencies and
one children and youth service agency.
Kayla Seyler, Cowansville
and
Sheena
Best,
Worthington, are currently
sponsoring “Blessing Bags”
for Clarion CYS, Family
Pathways in Butler, and
Family Care in Franklin.
Depending on the number
of bags donated they would
also donate to even more
agencies.
So, what it a “Blessing
Bag”? A Blessing Bag is a
back pack filled with a specific list of items that will be
donated to local foster agencies. A child’s bag would be
a brand new back pack
filled with a stuffed animal,
blanket, color book, crayons, book and toothbrush
and toothpaste. A teen bag
would be a brand new back
pack filled with a blanket,
sketchpad, journal, writing
utensils, colored pencils,
and a toothbrush and toothpaste.
They are currently conducting a “Blessing Bag”
drive that will end on July
11. If you are interested in
helping with their cause,
they can be contacted at
724.954.9676 to collect
your donations or you can
use one of their official drop
off locations! Drop off locations include: Greenawalt
Meats in Mayport; RMS Furniture in New Bethlehem;
Taste-T-Freeze in Rimersburg and and Plyer’s in
Brookville.

Dick’s Thoughts
The great spring sports season continues for Moniteau.
Recently the girls’ softball (third straight) and boys’ baseball teams captured District 9 Championships. And the
Moniteau Girls ended their season as the State’s Runnerup in the State Championship game. Congratulations to
the girl Warriors of Moniteau.
The Moniteau girl’s track team ended their season in
great fashion finishing 5th in the state at the PIAA Championships. Maura Kimmel won the state championship
in discus and finished 4th in the shot put. Teammate
Cambrie Campbell finished 3rd in the javelin and Brittany
Lindsay finished 5th in the shot put. Quite a season indeed.
Shippensburg was flooded with local athletes who competed at the PIAA State Track and Field Championships.
Locals that competed were A-C Valley’s Emma Fox, Karns
City’s Collin Dunmyre, Evan Stitt, Chandler Turner,
Spenser Myers, Jimmy Thompson, and Conrad Snyder,
Moniteau was well represented along with their medal
winners including Gabby Stewart, Alazia Greaves, Collette
Grossman, Dalton Anderson and Roman Davidson.
Andrew McCutchen is now the only player in team’s
history to collect at least 1200 hits, 150 home runs, and
150 stolen bases.
The Pirates pitching has been a little bit better as of late
but if anyone goes in the tank what they have in Indianapolis is pretty impressive. Jamieson Taillon has an ERA
of 1.82, Tyler Glasnow is at 2.25 and Chad Kuhl is a
miniscule 1.03.
After the 2016 NFL season Chris Berman is being phased
out at ESPN.
Seneca Valley senior Mike Kolor recently had a tough
decision. He was his class valedictorian and also qualified
for the track state championships. He chose to run in
Shippensburg over speaking at his graduation.
The series might be over by the time you read this but I
believe the Stanley Cup will be touring Western Pa this
summer.

By: Jerry Costello for The Christophers
On Father’s Day weekend, I
did something I hadn’t done
in a number of years. My son,
Ray, took me on a fishing
charter on Lake Erie. We
were fishing out of Conneaut,
Ohio, for perch and walleye.
While I don’t normally do
plugs in this column, I feel
that I would be remiss if I
failed to inform my local readers of this opportunity. We
fished with One More Cast
Charters, with Captain Brad
Jordan (724-526-3534). I
can’t believe how much fun I
had. We caught fish hand
over fist. Also, we did not
have to go through an endurance test getting there. The
drive from this area is a little
less than two hours. There are
a number of businesses in the
town of Conneaut that will
clean your fish for you. Be
sure to take a cooler along.
One More Cast is based locally (in Brady’s Bend). I have
done charter fishing for
years, and some of the techniques Brad used were
unique, but they worked. Of
course, it is unreasonable to
expect to always have fantastic fishing. If they are not biting, they are not biting. There
is nothing a guide can do
about that. You do have the
right to expect effort, and
with One More Cast, you will
get that.
Here are a few tips to keep
in mind if you are going on a
Great Lakes charter. The first
is seasickness. Personally, I
have never been seasick, but I
have seen more than one guy
who has, and it must be truly
miserable. The very best preventive is scopolamine, which
is available only by prescription. I have never known anyone who used it and had it fail.
A good sunscreen is also critical. When you are out on the
lake, the sun is brutal, and
precautions are necessary.
This is not a matter to be

taken lightly. Melanoma has
already killed one of my red
haired, fair skinned cousins. I
don’t want to be next. Good
sunglasses are also vital, as
well as shoes with sufficient
traction. Over the course of a
day, the deck can get wet and
slippery with water and fish
blood, and spills are possible.
Our trip was booked well in
advance, and booking ahead
is a good idea. Many captains,
however, have open dates all
season long, so it is worth a
phone call to give it a try.
On another front, the issue
of Chronic Wasting Disease
(CWD) is heating up in Pennsylvania. As most readers
know, I am not a fan of the
Game Commission. In fairness, though, I must give
them credit when it comes to
CWD. They kept it out of
Pennsylvania for a long time,
and now that it is here, they
are doing a good job of keeping it contained. They have
created Disease Management
Areas, and are trying various
ideas to keep the disease
within these areas. While I am
opposed to an increase in
hunting license fees, I could
support a one time surcharge
to be used to fight CWD. This
disease is nasty, and could
settle all of the deer management arguments in a most
unpleasant way.
And finally, don’t forget to
get your new hunting license.
Even a Senior Lifetime License
must be renewed, although
there is no cost. It will soon be
time to submit your antlerless
license applications, so don’t
delay.
You know, this might very
well be the best time of the
year to be an outdoor oriented person. Fishing, woodchuck hunting, bird watching
and many other activities are
in full swing. Get out there
and enjoy them.

I keep reading that it’s a
new era for country music,
and as a regular visitor to
Oklahoma I figure that I’m
ahead of the game. One of
those breaking new ground is
Tim McGraw, a country
singer who boasts of the kind
of attraction that appeals to
everyone. (New York Met
baseball fans know him as the
son of the late and legendary
Mets’ reliever, Tug McGraw,
but to those who enjoy country music, he’s always been a
star in his own right.)
Tim McGraw is becoming
known for something else,
too. He’s a great supporter of
U.S. veterans, and he looks for
chances to put that support
to work all the time. To that
end he’s partnered with Operation Homefront, which
takes empty homes and donates them—mortgage-free
and no strings attached—to
deserving veterans. Alison
Abbey wrote about McGraw
and Operation Homefront in
a recent issue of Parade
magazine, and she made it
plain that the singer puts
Christopher principles—
which stress the positive impact of helping someone
else—to use every day.
“I’ve got tons of friends who
are veterans,” he says. “When
Operation Homefront came
to me with this program that
marries homes with deserving veterans, it’s just the best
program I can be involved in.
“These guys spend so much
of their lives dedicated to providing security for us. Their
families have sacrificed everything, and they find themselves trying to find that same
security. In a lot of cases they
don’t have a home of their
own. They’re moving from
place to place. If I can be involved in changing that, I’m
glad to do it.”
Tim McGraw comes by his
interest in veterans—and, in a
larger sense, his love of the
land we share—quite naturally. Giving back is in his
DNA.
“I think that’s sort of the
environment our music was
born in—struggle and strife,
helping each other out when

times are hard,” he says. “A lot
of us were raised in those circumstances and in those
neighborhoods and family
situations.”
McGraw, 48, is married to
fellow performer Faith Hill,
and the couple has three teenage daughters. Family plays a
big part in his life and, he says,
keeps him grounded.
“You can give up your soul
and your life to work if you
don’t have something to balance it,” he explains. “My family is certainly way on the
other side of the scale balancing out my life.”
McGraw’s heart is close not
only to his work and his family; it’s close to our veterans as
well. He’s already presented
keys to 36 homes for veterans
and their families through
Operation Homefront, and he
knows that a lot more are
lined up. It’s about providing
homes for their future, true,
but it’s also about providing a
measure of stability too. And
there are other essentials—
home repairs, food, school
supplies, baby products.
They’re all part of the package.
“The veterans are so thankful,” McGraw says. “They
have a service heart to start
with; it’s just the kind of
people they are.
“My reaction is always, ‘You
don’t have to thank me or anybody for this. You deserve it.’

Cold Beer? Warm Beer? Select
the Right Serving Temperature
By Dave Carpenter
If Super Bowl ads, bar signs, and country songs are to
be believed, Americans love their beer “ice cold.” After all,
you can’t very well have a summertime backyard barbecue without an ice-filled cooler of longneck bottles and
cans, can you? And beer always tastes best in a frosty
mug, right?
Well, yes and no. If your predilections lean toward
mass-produced lagers with the word “lite” somewhere in
the name, then yes, you definitely want to keep those
things as cold as the natural laws of the universe will
permit. But when it comes to craft ales and lagers, including most homebrew, there really is no good one-size-fitsall temperature. And even if there were, it probably
wouldn’t be ice cold.
Temperature, you see, has a profound effect on our
taste buds. The chemical compounds that are responsible
for the myriad aromas and flavors we love in our beer are
variously activated and suppressed according to temperature. Warmth usually makes a flavor more perceptible,
while cold tends to suppress it. Choosing just the right
temperature ensures that these constituent chemicals remain properly in balance as you enjoy your craft beer or
homebrew.
Take sweetness, for example. In a 2005 article in Nature (“Heat Activation of TRPM5 Underlies Thermal Sensitivity of Sweet Taste”), researchers identified how chemical pathways in the tongue’s taste receptors vary with
temperature. The upshot of the study is that increasing
the temperature of a food or beverage strengthens the
electrical signals that tell the brain what you’re tasting.
But some kinds of taste respond differently than others,
which is why an ice cold stout is likely to taste harshly
bitter while a somewhat warmer sample expresses a balance between malt sweetness and roast bitterness.
CB&B’s Kegging Your Beer online class gives you everything you need to know to set up a home system for
kegging, force carbonating, and serving your homebrew!

You intuitively know this. There’s a reason we enjoy
our coffee hot, our red wine room temperature, and our
white wine cold. And the same is true for beer. Different
styles of beer taste better to most people at different temperatures. Here are some general guidelines:
35–40°F (2–4°C): Mass market light lagers
40–45°F (4–7°C): Czech and German Pilsners, Munich
Helles, wheat beers, and Kölsch
45–50°F (7–10°C): IPAs, American pale ales, porters,
and most stouts
50–55°F (10–13°C): Belgian ales, sour ales, Bocks,
English bitters and milds, Scottish ales
55–60°F (13–16°C): Barleywines, imperial stouts, Belgian strong ales, and Doppelbocks
When in doubt remember this rule of thumb: light body
and low alcohol beer tastes
better cold while full body
and high alcohol examples
are better warmer.

Area Banker Elected To Board of
Directors For Statewide Assoc.
Governor Signs Bill
Protecting Conventional
Oil/Gas Production in PA
The Governor today (June
23) signed into law legislation
that
promotes
Pennsylvania’s
conventional oil and natural gas
industry and removes it
from onerous and inappropriate regulations imposed
by the Department of Environment Protection (DEP)
that are intended for
Marcellus Shale operations,
according to Senator Scott
E. Hutchinson.
Senate Bill 279 was signed
into law as Act 52 of 2016.
Senator Hutchinson introduced the measure to establish the Penn Grade Crude
Development
Advisory
Council and strongly supported amending it to include language removing
conventional oil and gas
drillers from the DEP’s
changes to state (Chapter
78) regulations on drilling
operations in the Commonwealth.
“I appreciate the efforts
that made this new law a
reality and thereby offer a
much brighter future for the
conventional oil and gas
industry and the thousands
of Pennsylvanians whose
jobs and livelihoods are dependent on those operations,”
said
Senator
Hutchinson.
“Unfortunately, some in the rulemaking process were unable or unwilling to recog-
nize the vast differences
between the conventional
and unconventional drilling
industries. Fortunately, the
General Assembly and the
Governor were able to
reach an agreement on the
issue, which resulted in this
measure.”
Act 126 of 2014 made it
clear that rules developed
for Marcellus Shale gas extraction operations by Department of Environmental
Protection must be separate
from the conventional drilling industry. Senate Bill 279
reinforces that provision
and declares that the DEP’s
newly enacted regulations
for conventional operations
are void.
“The Penn Grade Crude
Development
Advisory
Council created under this
new law will promote the
conventional gas and oil
industry and serve as a technical advisory board to address issues affecting conventional production,” said
Senator Hutchinson. “The
council will work with the
DEP to ensure that the differences between small and
large conventional operations, in addition to the vast
differences between conventional drilling and unconventional drilling, are
taken into account as future
regulations or laws are developed and implemented.”

Whether you’re bidding on

Cost-conscious shoppers may

deep discounts abound at auctions, where shoppers can find all
types of products, homes, cars

dents said auctions are an exciting way to get good deals. Not
only can auctions be a way to get
great value on items, but also
they can be entertaining to attend. Three-quarters of auction
attendees bring the entire family
along.
Although auctions offer a vast
array of merchandise for sale,
men and women attending an
auction should do their homework before making any bids.
Whether you’re bidding on
seized property, used cars or
livestock, the following tips can
help save you some money.
* Get to know the market.
When preparing to attend an auction, men and women should
study up on any items they’re
looking to purchase. This helps
gain a better understanding of
the current market rates and what
is a high or low price for an item.
You likely won’t know what a good
deal is without first doing your
homework.
* Sign up for alerts. Research
the various auctions and sign up
for their mailing lists so you are
alerted when something you
might be interested is hitting the
auction block.
* Do a dry run. It might help to
visit an auction even if you don’t
plan to buy anything. This allows
you to get a feel for how fast
things move as well as the methods for bidding. Being informed
can eliminate mistakes due to
nerves or misinformation.
* Set a budget. Establish a budget before walking through the
auction doors and stick to it. It’s
easy to get carried away in the
heat of bidding, and you do not
want to overspend. After all, your
goal is to save money.
* Don’t bid on items you can’t
afford. Ensure your finances are
in place so you can afford the
items you bid on. Depending on
the auction, you may need to
leave a deposit and then complete the deal within a certain
period of time.
* Purchases are typically “asis” and final. Auction sales are
generally final.

MOVIE REVIEW
“Finding Dory”
By Bob Garver
Pixar has an excellent track
record when it comes to sequels, but for a minute there it
looked like “Finding Dory”
wasn’t going to work. The
aquatic adventure “Finding
Nemo” came out all the way
back in 2003; kids who grew
up with it aren’t kids anymore. Maybe they had… forgotten about it? Aside from
that, blue tang Dory (Ellen
DeGeneres) made a good
sidekick in the original, but
was she really up for carrying
a whole film by herself? No
need for worrying, it doesn’t
take long to see that the film is
a success on every level. You
just have to look at the $9.2
million it made on Thursday
night (on its way to a record
$136 million weekend) to
know that the film is a commercial success, and you just
have to watch Dory in the first
few minutes to know that it’s
a creative one.
We first see Dory as a child
in this movie, and whatever
defenses you have against
cuteness, she swims right past
them. Her eyes take up half of
her body, and her words and
actions are fittingly precious.
She and her parents (Diane
Keaton and Eugene Levy)
struggle together with her
short-term memory loss, and
they’re as admirable as can be.
But Dory soon gets separated
and can’t find her way back.
She grows up among strangers, fish with varying degrees
of tolerance about her disability. Eventually she aligns herself with clownfish Marlin
(Albert Brooks), and together
they go looking for his son
Nemo, with Dory forgetting
that she’s supposed to be
looking for her own family.
Now it’s a year later and
Dory is a member is Marlin’s
family. Nemo (Hayden
Rolence) is still in school and
Dory helps out as a teacher’s
assistant. A lesson in migration teaches the class that animals have instincts that lead
them back to their families.
Dory realizes that she must
have a family, and slowly she
starts regaining childhood
memories. She sets off to find
them, and Marlin and Nemo
tag along, forever indebted to
their forgetful friend, but sure
enough they soon find themselves separated, trapped,
and in danger.
The adventure leads them
to a marine theme park,
which at times resembles The
Seas with Nemo and Friends
at Disney’s Epcot park. There
they meet a colorful cast of
supporting characters, including Hank the Octopus
(Ed O’Neil), whose secret
shame is that he’s a septopus,
and who wants nothing more
than to be shipped to a facility
in Cleveland. Then there are
whales Destiny (Kaitlin
Olson) and Bailey (Ty
Burrell). She has vision problems and he allegedly has
hearing problems. They have
to work together and push
each other. A pair of sea lions
(Idris Elba and Dominic West)
are also scene-stealers, especially when they’re fighting
off a third sea lion who’s trying to usurp their favorite
rock.
Pixar movies are known for
working some serious subject
matter into their zaniness.
This entry doesn’t contain as
much loss as some other Pixar
films (including “Finding
Nemo”), but it deals a lot with
frustration. Characters often
feel frustrated when dealing
with Dory, and Dory of course
has to deal with the brunt of
her memory loss. The frustration is captured in a sympathetic way, but the characters’
determination to overcome
their unique obstacles teaches
kids a good lesson about having patience with people who
have disabilities, whether it be
friends, family, strangers, or
themselves.
The action and humor are
exactly what you’d expect
from a Pixar movie. Compared to most kids’ movies,
they’re excellent. Compared
to other Pixar movies, they’re
fine. I have a few nitpicks like
how the gilled characters always find a container of water handy and some gags that
I think are inferior versions of
gags from the first movie (the
teacher couldn’t come up
with a more elaborate migration song?), but there’s a
healthy amount of fun and
creativity on display. More
than anything, “Finding Dory”
is a heartfelt movie with some
heartpumping moments and
some hearty laughs.
Three Stars out of Five
“Finding Dory” is rated PG
for mild thematic elements.
Its running time is 97 minutes.

East Brady Area Riverfest
July 15, 16 & 17
It is almost time, once again, for East Brady Area Riverfest.
This year has certainly been a challenge, we have had so many
ups and downs this year,
Including the death of original committee member Toots
Miller. Toots was a member since Riverfest started. I think we
have pulled everything together and have added some new
things this year.
We will have a wood carver doing his carvings on Saturday
and Sunday. Come watch him carve.
A kids walk has been added to the 5k race. Saturday afternoon we are having a petting zoo from 2 to 5 for kids. On
Sunday we are having a one day Craft Show with craters setting up for the day.
Committee member Dan Weidenhof will be providing his
bungee jump and other inflatables and games this year instead of Thrower Entertainment.
All the old favorites will be here. Starting with the parade
Friday night, followed by music by the Wrangler Band.
Saturday there will be the pageant reviews, karaoke, cornhole tournament, motorcycle show and scavenger hunt sponsored by Clarion County Chapter A.B.A.T.E., they will also
have a bicycle giveaway a boys and a girls bike will be given
away.
Music on Saturday will be provided by Houseband from
Ford City, followed by Street Level Band. Ending the days will
fireworks.
Sunday we will have our interfaith Church Service. Isaac
Cole, American Idol contestant will be singing after the church
service, followed by our auction of new donated items.
We would like to have more local participants in the parade, if any individuals, groups, churches, or organizations
would like to be in the parade, applications are on our
Website.
Beautiful Baby and Precious Pets Contests will be held,
again. To enter bring a decorated can to the information booth
before the parade or immediately after the parade. Put a picture of the baby or pet on the outside of the cans, but no
names on the outside. Put the name of baby or pet, parent or
owners name, address, and phone number, and age of baby
inside the can . Winners will be decided by whoever has the
most money in it, gift cards will be given. All money in cans
goes to Riverfest, this is a fundraiser for us.
