Nebraska
City lands
on top 10
list of most
beautiful
towns
The Culture Trip
has ranked Nebraska
City as one of the 10
Most
Beautiful
Towns in Nebraska.
This joins Nebraska City’s previous listing with Culture Trip
as one of The USA's
10 Best Small-Town
Cultural Meccas.
The following citation from Culture
Trip’s web site describes Nebraska
City.
Nestled on the
banks of the Missouri
River on the border
with Iowa, Nebraska
City was founded in
1855 and is the state’s
oldest incorporated
city.
Naturally, there’s a
ton of historical wonders to entertain history buffs, from the
Mayhew Cabin and
John Brown’s Cave,
Nebraska’s only recognized
Underground Railroad site,
to the beautiful Arbor
Lodge State Historical Park – the former
home of J. Sterling
Morton, founder of
Arbor Day.
For a small town
of around 7,000 Nebraska City certainly
packs a busy cultural
calendar and is bestknown for the AppleJack Festival, held
each September since
1969, which celebrates the start of the
apple harvest.

Otoe County Board considers Phone
Pre-Trial Release program
seizure
Nikki Carlson
[email protected]
District Judge Jeffrey Funke
asked Otoe County commissioners to implement a Pretrial Release Program in Otoe
County Tuesday morning.
During the Otoe County
Commissioners meeting, Funke
said the program would help
ensure that inmates who've
posted bonds would return to
court and would increase the
public's safety because inmates
out on bond would be monitored by a pre-trial release officer. Another benefit would be
that the program would save
the county money.
Commissioner Rick Freshman said the Otoe County Jail
can hold up to 21 inmates. If
there's a surplus of inmates,
they're then transported to the
Cass County Jail at Otoe County's expense.
Funke said that Cass County
charges Otoe $55 per day to
house an inmate.
"So instead of people sitting
in jail, we could release them
on perhaps a lower bond with
pre-trial release and not have
the expense of sitting in jail,"
he said.
Freshman said he would like
more time to look at the program in detail, but said if the
program will save the county
money then he's interested in
program moving forward.
"A lot of times we pay Cass
County to house overflow," he
said. "And so if this program
will help relieve that then it
should help the county save
money."
Freshman added the county
also spends a lot of money transporting inmates to be housed
in Cass County and also transporting inmates back and forth
between Otoe and Cass counties
for court appearance.
Funke said Sarpy County,
who has had the program for
about nine years, is willing to
offer 29 hours of supervision
weekly if Otoe and Cass counties
enter into an interlocal agreement to implement the program. Funke added that Sarpy
County suggested to do the
work for $3,400 that could be
split between Cass and Otoe
counties.

County receives $52K scrap tire grant
Nikki Carlson
[email protected]
Otoe County residents are
encouraged to gather up their
scrap tires for an upcoming collection taking place in June.
Otoe County Emergency
Management Director Gregg
Goebel said Otoe County has
received a significant grant of
$52,176 from the Nebraska Department of Environmental
Quality to host a free two-day
tire amnesty or scrap tire collection.
Goebel said the goal is to collect a total of 600 tons of tires
in three locations to recycle
them into useable products and
to keep tires out of the county's
road ditches or waterways.
"If we get them picked up
and we get them disposed of
we don't have problems, or as
much problems, with mosquitos
or airborne pathogens like that,"
Goebel said. "Also they don't
end up in our county road ditches and our waterways."
Goebel said the state of Nebraska has offered the spare
tire collection program for 15
years. Otoe County has participated in the program in the
past, however, not in the past
two years.
"It's always been a good program and Otoe County's always
stepped up to the plate," he
said. "This is again another really good chance to get rid of
all those tire we have stashed
everywhere."
The collection will take place
June 26 and June 27 from 8
a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Palmyra
Disposal & Recycling Center and
the Otoe County Roads shops
in Syracuse and Nebraska City.
Goebel said tires of all kinds
will be taken except for a few.
"There are very few limitations," he said. "The biggest
limitations are tires with rims
on them because of the weight,
tires that came out of the dirt
that are just caked in dirt or
mud and, unfortunately, we
can't take retailers' tires."
Goebel said in the last 13
years, the largest tire collection
in Otoe County yielded 312
tons. He's hoping to collect 200
tons in all three locations.
Otoe County had received the
NDEQ grant money last week.
"I don't know how many
counties in the state had actually
received it, but I know Otoe
County was one of the biggest,"
Goebel said.
The money will be used mainly to pay Champlin Tire Recycling Inc. of Concordia, Kan.,
to dispose of and recycle the
tires.

During a residential search warrant, Nebraska City Police Department officers seized a cell phone
with sexually-explicit photographs
of a minor child.
The cell phone belonged to Cole
A. Rinne, 25, of Nebraska City.
The search warrant occurred on
May 8 at 5:12 p.m.
Rinne was arrested and booked
into the Otoe County Sheriff's Office
on suspicion of possession of child
pornography. Rinne's first appearance in Otoe County Court was
Monday. He faces two counts of
possession of child pornography,
which are Class 3 felonies.
His bond was set at $25,000. A
Class 3 felony charge could mean a
maximum of 20 years in prison, a
$25,000 or both.
According to an affidavit, Rinne
had prior convictions of attempted
child enticement and one prior conviction of failing to register as a sex
offender. Rinne's preliminary hearing has been scheduled for June 1
at 1:30 p.m. in the Otoe County
Courtroom.

COURTEOUS COMMENTS
NFL’s hot air
proves deflating
The drive toward a decision in the Tom Brady/
New England Patriot Deflate-At-Your-Own-Risk
scandal didn’t end in a
punt on Monday.
That’s we know for certain.
The NFL was motivated
to punish Brady and his
franchise and put out a
ruling that they hoped
would do just that.
What the NFL Commissioner and his cohorts didn’t consider, however, was
the sensibility of the punishment.
They didn’t know how
lame their report would
sound.
It’s supposed to be a
smoking gun document
and yet all of its “evidence”
is centered around words
like probably and likely.
And that points directly
at the league’s true motivation here.
They’re out to get the
Patriots.
Now, before anyone
screams Patriot-bias, let
me assure you that you
won’t find it with me.
For years, I have joined
many other NFL fans in
being frustrated by the Patriots.
They have a cut-throat
and win-at-all-cost coach
whose aloof nature inspires
dislike.
They win. They win at a
constant clip.
They come close to
breaking the rules, and, at
least most of the time, stop
just short of that, in an effort to win.
The NFL was sick of seeing their brand associated
with this style of competition and so they acted.
It’s just unfortunate that
they acted in this instance
because it ends up looking
like a witch hunt.
What better way to cripple a team in the immediate future than to suspend
KIRT MANION
its quarterback.
But why should Brady be
suspended?
Go through the list of
other suspects that probably deserve it more.
Robert Kraft, the owner
who has said over and over
that the Patriots did nothing wrong, has led a program that has broken the
rules at least one other
time with spy-gate.
Coach Bill Belichick,
who no doubt came up
with the plan.
The center, who handled the football before it
got to Brady’s hands.
Maybe the NFL should
suspend itself for having
such a lax system in place.
Playing games with deflated balls damages the
league’s reputation and yet
there’s no independent official on the sideline responsible for safeguarding
that reputation.
We’ll just hope that, in
the spirit of competition,
all will abide by the rules.
Come to think of it, let’s
just allow each team to
appoint a video review guy
to handle their replay challenges.
The NFL knows that deflating footballs is far from
a scandal.
They know that New
England shouldn’t be punished, but they have their
own agenda, and that’s
why this is all one big joke.
HOPE FOR TODAY
Reflections on
commencement
By Clint Decker
During May over six million students are expected
to graduate from high
schools, colleges and universities. These teenagers
and twenty-somethings
will reach a milestone and
have a new beginning for
themselves. If you know of
a graduate here are a few
pieces of commencement
wisdom to pass along.
Rejoice and celebrate
your achievement. Years
have been invested to get
to this point.
Do not let it slide by
without enjoying the moment.
Celebrate!
Resolve to never give up.
There were challenges in
reaching this day and there
will be challenges tomorrow.
Researchers say that
there will be over 20% of
high school students and
over 40 percent of college
and university students
who will never reach graduation. You did. You overcame.
Recall the people that
helped you make it.
No man is an island to
himself.
Thank the people who
helped you along the way.
Henry Ward Beecher once
said, "Gratitude is the
fairest blossom, which
springs from the soul.”
Release the heartache
connected with the journey. Your celebration may
be bittersweet. Maybe a
loved one or close friend
has passed away and their
absence is heart-wrenching. Maybe there is some
relationship conflict sucking the joy out of the air.
When you receive that
diploma or degree, vow to
release the pain and step
into the future.
Remember Almighty
God. A wise King once
said, “Remember also your
Creator in the days of your
youth” (Ecclesiastes 12:1).
It is very easy to forget
God when we are young. A
sense of adventure, a desire
to question and the journey towards independence
can all lead there.
Yet, He has a way of
keeping us in-check.
It is often found in those
times of adversity when
our determination and
ability cannot fix the situation.
We realize we are at the
mercy of time, chance or
others.
God uses these moments
to teach us that we need
the intervention of someone outside of ourselves –
Him.
As you reach this milestone, be resolved to depend upon God with all
your heart. He is real and
trustworthy.
May you become a follower of Jesus, God’s only
Son, and may He bring
you hope for today and
your future.
POLITICS
Raising moral standards
I really hate it when
people endear themselves
to the religious right and
then fail to use that platform responsibly.
To me, Jesus isn’t some
celebrity’s name to drop to
try to impress people. He
isn’t part of a political
platform or point of view.
When you represent
people of faith, the bar is
raised. The standards of
ethical and moral correctness have to be the
highest. Unfortunately,
that isn’t always the case.
In Biblical stories, David
was a shepherd boy. When
he faced the giant Goliath, he showed no fear
because he had already
killed a lion and a bear
protecting his flock.
He went on to kill Goliath and end his attacks
on the soldiers of Israel.
Later David became king
of his people.
But what happens when
the shepherds start fleecing the sheep instead of
protecting them?
Somehow, Todd Starnes
has used his conservative
point of view to make inroads with social conservatives. But he often plays
a little fast and loose with
the truth and that is no
way to behave when you
are broadcast by Christian media outlets.
Last week, Starnes used
his daily radio spot to berate President Barack
KENT BUSH
Obama and the liberal
media for not speaking
out about the death of a
25-year-old officer in New
York City. Of course, he
framed the officer’s death
in a false-equivalence with
the Baltimore protests and
riots because of the death
of an unarmed black man
at the hands of the police.
Starnes’ piece ran Tuesday morning.
Obama had already
commented and most media outlets – whether liberal or not - with any national interest had already
covered the unfortunate
death well before Starnes’
comments aired.
Via a Twitter exchange,
Starnes defended himself
for his inaccurate comments by stating that he
had to record his piece
before the President or
media had responded. He
said it was accurate when
he recorded it.
I’m not sure when he hit
the record button on that
segment, but it must have
been within minutes of
the officer’s death.
Facts are facts, Starnes
has an anti-Obama “us
against them” narrative
that he has to maintain.
He has not – and likely
will not – correct his erroneous claims.
That is unfortunate. It is
a black eye not only for
Starnes, but for the stations with whom he is affiliated. But the problem
goes beyond pundits who
push a point of view.
Mike Huckabee should
have no problem with
credibility with the religious right. They don’t get
more religious or more
right than Southern Baptist pastors.
But Huckabee has also
been a little lax when it
comes to how he makes
money lately.
Huckabee is famous for
dropping more than 100
pounds. Like Jared from
Subway, Huckabee has
endorsed weight loss
products. However, one
plan includes medically
unproven uses of cinnamon and chromium picolinate to assist in weight
loss and balancing blood
sugar. Anecdotes are not
evidence and claiming
that these things can work
is one thing but endorsing
them as a cure for diabetes
is far from scientifically
proven.
Like Huckabee said on
Sunday morning shows, if
that is the worst thing
anyone can find against
him, he is a pretty good
candidate.
Alas, it isn’t. Huckabee
rented out his email list to
a company that claims
there is a cure for cancer if
people will just perform
some sort of holy acrostic
puzzle with randomly selected Bible verses. That
may have worked for Tom
Hanks in “The DaVinci
Code” but if that is what
you are banking on to cure
your cancer, you might
need to seek a second
opinion.
Huckabee said he never
endorsed the cancer cure
and it is no different than
media outlets advertising
“catheters and adult diapers.” Well, one way it is
different is that catheters
and adult diapers are real
and the people who order
those from advertisers actually get what they pay
for.
I understand that many
people want to see someone like Huckabee do well
at the polls because there
are parts of his resume
that are very appealing to
people of faith. I want to
like him too.
It’s just hard when you
see him taking advantage
of people by pushing false
products and false narratives to build audience
and pad bankrolls.
DIGGING UP ROOTS
The story of Neescaw
American History has
faithfully recorded the settlement of the western
frontier and the hardships
our ancestors faced as they
settled the Great Plains.
Through books, movies
and documentaries we
have an accurate picture
of the white settler.
However, we know very
little about those who
were here before the white
man. Oh, we have the
stereotypes of the halfnaked brave or the Indian
Chief with his war bonnet
of feathers, but we know
very little about the daily
life of the Indian.
In digging through
some files at the Nebraska State Historical Society, I discovered the story of
an Indian of the Oto tribe
from his birth to his death.
I found it interesting. I
think you will too, so for
the next few weeks I am
going to tell you a true story about an Oto Indian
named Neescaw.
Born in 1846, He was
given the name Neescaw,
which in Oto language
means White Water. The
white man called him
SHIRLEY GILFERT
James Whitewater. He
was the son of an Oto Indian woman and a white
man and had grown up
with the Crow tribe, close
kin to the Otos.
Little is known about
his childhood other than
that he had gone to a Mission school and learned to
read and write, one of
only three Indians in the
Oto tribe that could do so.
Rumor had it that he had
murdered a man while
living with the Crow tribe.
Perhaps that is why he
left their settlement.
Sometime shortly be-
fore 1869 he and his bride
Tah-sha-mi came to live in
the village of Chief Medicine Hat near the mouth
of Mission Creek in
Southeast Nebraska.
They seemed to be a devoted couple. Tah-sha-mi
was beautiful, industrious and loyal to her husband. She made him
beautiful shirts and moccasins of the finest deerskin and decorated them
with fine beadwork and
porcupine quills. Many
young braves were envious
of Neescaw, but they also
feared him.
Neescaw seemed to
have a Jekyll and Hyde
personality. Although he
carried the white man’s
Bible to church, he also
wore an Oto medicine bag
around his neck and often
prayed to Waconda, the
Great Maker of All
Things. Often he wandered alone through the
timbers, shouting out
loudly to Waconda and
those who heard him
would think he was planning a terrible mischief
and asking for supernatural assistance to do so.
The entire tribe feared
him and even his wife
claimed that sometimes
an evil spirit would come
upon him as he slept. The
tribe decided that he had
inherited an evil spirit
from his white ancestor.
Medicine Hat’s village
was near the town of Fairbury. The Oto tribe co-existed peacefully with the
town settlers and would
often camp in the Fairbury town square when
they were on their way to
a summer Buffalo hunt. It
was not at all unusual to
see young Fairbury boys
and Oto Indian boys playing together.
On July 4, 1871, the
Otos were returning from
a summer Buffalo hunt
when they were attracted
to Mattingly’s Mill near
Fairbury by a new steam
whistle that was welcoming the pioneers to a
Fourth of July celebration. Some of the Otos decided to join in the fun
and lingered, but as the
day went on, most of them
left on their way back to
their reservation. Neescaw
decided to stay. It was a
bad decision and one that
would change his life forever. Next week I’ll tell
you why.

NC baseball season
closes with 3-0 loss
Julie Mancini
[email protected]
The Nebraska City baseball team’s season came
to an end Monday night
with a 3-0 loss against
Elkhorn South in the District B-3 tournament finals
at Elkhorn South High
School.
Bret Kochanowicz was
tagged with the loss. He
pitched six innings, giving
up six hits and two earned
runs while striking out
four and walking two.
“Bret threw a good
game,” said head coach
Tom Bales. “Their pitcher
had good movement and
kept us off balance.
“We finally started to
get to him a little bit in
the seventh,” Bales added,
“but we had a hard-hit
line drive by Kestyn Lee
turn into a double play
that ended it.”
The Pioneers were held
to just three hits in the
game.
“Our guys never quit,”
Bales continued. “They
played hard and stayed after it and believed they
could come back and win.”
“That shows the character that they have and
it will bode well in the future,” he said.
Four of the team’s
starters--Kestyn Lee, Bret
Kochanowicz, Chris Monaghan and Cody Krier-graduated Sunday.
“We will miss our seniors, ” said Bales, “but they
laid down a good foundation for our younger players and hopefully they will
build on it.”
Pioneer tennis battles
gusty wind at EMC

[email protected]
The Nebraska City girls’
tennis team battled cold,
windy conditions to finish
fifth in the Eastern Midlands Conference tournament on May 11 at the
Nebraska Tennis Center
in Lincoln.
Elkhorn South won the
tournament with 36 total
points.
“The weather conditions
made tennis difficult for
all players, with 45 degree
temps and gusty winds,”
said head coach Dan
Holmberg.
“Kendra McGinnis was
disappointed in her performance in the second
round against Kylie
Hohlen, as she had beaten
her in our dual a few
weeks ago, but the wind
was a real equalizer and
minimized many of
Kendra's strengths,” he
continued.
“I was pleased in the
way she was able to mentally bounce back to win
the third place match, we
needed every team point
we could get.”
The Pioneers earned
seven team points in the
competition, thanks to a
combination of singles
play by McGinnis and
doubles play by Lais Barbosa and Magen Jorgensen.
“We are a singles-oriented team, so we were
really proud of the two
wins Lais and Magen
earned in No. 1 Doubles,”
said Holmberg. “We would
have finished last without
them. “
Here is a summary of
the tournament results:
No. 1 Singles: Kendra
McGinnis earned third
place with 2-1 record. She
defeated Whitney Aman
of Blair in opening round
6-2, 6-2. McGinnis lost to
Kylie Hohlen of Norris 61, 6-0, then defeated
Madison Tabor of Waverly
8-6 in the third-place
match.
No. 2 Singles: Evy Causgrove lost 6-1, 6-0 to Carly
Brune of Elkhorn, and lost
8-3 to Alyssa Pracht of
Waverly.
No. 1 Doubles: Lais Barbosa and Magen Jorgensen lost to Blair 4-6,
6-4, 6-3 in the opening
round, then beat Gretna
8-0 and beat Waverly 8-6
in consolation bracket to
earn fifth place with 2-1
record.
No. 2 Doubles: Taylor
Ackerman and Brenna
Turner lost to Gretna 62, 6-0 and to Elkhorn, 82.
The Pioneers played
Crete on Thursday in a
dual match at Steinhart
Park. State tennis tournament play begins May 21
in Lincoln. Look for results
from those matches in a
future issue of the NewsPress.
Pioneer golfers prep
for district tourney
Julie Mancini
[email protected]
The Nebraska City
boys’ golf team placed
10th at the Waverly
Invitational Tuesday at
Crooked Creek Golf
Course in Lincoln.
The team score of
393 put them 80
strokes behind the firstplace team, Wahoo
Neumann.
“We had some nice
rounds and some
rounds that were not
the best,” said head
coach Scott Kinnison.
“I was really happy
with rounds Kyle Francois and Ben Miller
had.” he added. “Kyle
was pretty consistent,
and it was nice to see
Ben shoot below 100
for the first time this
year.”
Kyle Francois had
the best individual
score for the Pioneers
golfers with a 93, fol-
lowed by Tom Gress’
94. The rest of the
team’s scores were as
follows: Ben Miller,
98; Aston Crum, 108:
and Loren Steinman,
112.
The three seniors on
the team--Gress, Crum
and Steinman--didn’t
shoot their best rounds
at the tournament, but
Kinnison expects them
to be ready for district
play on Monday.
“Sometimes after
graduation weekend,
there is a little emotional and physical letdown, and guys don't
always play their best,”
said Kinnison.
“I expect them to
learn from it, and all
three will be ready to
go next week,” he said.
The district tournament is set for May 18
at Woodland Hills Golf
Course. Look for results
in a future issue of the
News-Press.

Lourdes Central Catholic teams
competed against five other schools
at the 28th annual Orville Rettig
Invitational, held at Pioneer Field
in Nebraska City on May 8.
The Lourdes girls’ team finished
meet in second place with 116.5
points. The Lourdes boys’ team finished the meet with 94 points, which
put them in fourth place.
The Pawnee City teams won the
meet, the boys with 127 points and
the girls with 157 points.
“It was a great meet to end our
regular season,” said co-coach Jacob
Staroscik. “I think our performances
will give us a lot of confidence going
into our district meet. We’ve continually improved meet to meet and
I expect that trend to continue at
districts.”
Staroscik noted that the cold,
windy start to the day might not
have been the best day for a meet,
but the Knights seemed unfazed.
“Coach Bausch, Coach Novak,
Coach Trail, and I are extremely
proud of the effort and determination our kids have displayed
throughout the year, particularly
our seniors,” he added, recognizing
Ethan Martinosky, Katie O’Neil,
Ariel Stuhr, Katherine Young, and
student manager Karley Kreifels.
“These kids have done a lot for
our program, and it’s great to see
them go out strong at our final
home meet,” he said.
It was Staroscik’s final home meet,
too, as he will be leaving Lourdes
Central Catholic to serve a twoyear Peace Corps mission in Africa.

Huskers wrap up season against Illinois
With three games left
in the regular season, the
Nebraska baseball team
(34-19, 9-12 Big Ten) will
start its final Big Ten series
of the year on Thursday
in Champaign, Ill., against
the No. 5 Illinois Fighting
Illini (43-6-1, 19-1 Big
Ten).
The series runs Thursday-Friday-Saturday, with
both Thursday and Friday’s games set for 6:05
p.m.
Saturday’s regular-season finale is scheduled for
2:05 p.m. Both Friday and
Saturday’s games will be
carried live nationwide on
the Big Ten Network.
Nebraska comes into the
series eighth in the Big
Ten Conference following
a 2-1 series loss to Purdue.
Nebraska has struggled
of late and is 4-6 in its
last 10 games and is just
2-7 on the road during
Big Ten play this season.
The Illini are at the op-
posite end of the spectrum,
as they enter the weekend
on a 24-game winning
streak, which ties them
with Texas A&M for the
longest winning streak in
the nation this season. The
Illini have swept a schoolrecord six straight Big Ten
series heading into Thursday.
Illinois last overall loss
and lone conference loss
this season came on
March 29 at Michigan
State, 5-2. The Illini enter
the weekend with a 1.5
game lead over Iowa for
the Big Ten regular season
title.
The Hawkeyes wrap up
the season with a three
game series at Rutgers.
The series will be the
fourth between the
Huskers and Illini since
Nebraska joined the Big
Ten for the 2012 season.
The Huskers have won
each of the first three series between the two
teams, including a 2-1 series win in Champaign in
2013. Nebraska and Illinois first met in 1897, with
Illinois winning 14-9, and
the two clubs didn’t meet
again until 2012 when Nebraska hosted Illinois for
its first ever Big Ten game
on March 23, 2012. The
Illini won the opener, 113, but the Huskers responded with victories in
the final two games to win
the series.

Following a series loss
to Purdue, the Huskers
are still in position to reach
the 2015 Big Ten Tournament.
Nebraska is in search of
its fourth straight trip to
the postseason tournament, which will be hosted
at Target Field in Minneapolis, Minn.
Nebraska last qualified
for four-straight conference tournaments when
they were members of the
Big 12, as they made 10
straight tournaments from
1999 to 2008.

Some of the expense would include monitoring and laboratory
fees, GPS or monitoring devices for
program participants and drug and
alcohol testing. Funke added that
court judges will be responsible for
determining who can participate
in the program, which will cost $50
per participant. He stressed that
"high-risk" or "highly-violent" offenders won't qualify for the program.
He used people who've had a
fourth or fifth driving under the
influence offenses as being good
candidates for the program.
"A lot of times those people have
a drinking problem, but they still
have a job, they still have the financial ability to post bond. Right
now they post the bond and they're
out," he said. "We don't know if
they're drinking, we don't know if
they're drinking and driving, and
this situation would give us the opportunity to monitor these people."
Those in the program could be
required to meet weekly with a pretrial release officer, go through continuous drug and alcohol testing,
and if alcohol is an issue then a
monitoring device could be installed
in participants' vehicles to ensure
that they can't drive while impaired.
"So it increases public safety in
that respect that we have people
that are weeks from jail, pending a
case, and so being monitored will
ensure that they're complying with
the law and the rules that we set
forth in the conditions for bond,"
Funke said.
Commissioners authorized Funke
to proceed with negotiations with
Cass County and for the county attorney's office to review them.
Commissioners also heard from
Mike Wieckhorst II, who farms in
all directions surrounding Nebraska
City, spoke about the county's "outof-shape" roads.
"The roads are flat. They've got a
lip on the outside edges of them
and its throughout the whole county," Wieckhorst said.
He asked commissioners if the
roads could be crowned or rounded
with the lips removed instead of
pouring more rock on the roads.
He knew of one road that has a
ditch forming in the middle of the
road.
Commission Chairman Tim
Nelsen said Wieckhorst could provide a list of problematic roads to
all of the commissioners representing the districts where the roads
are located. Nelsen added that some
of the road projects that Wieckhorst
discussed were on the one- to sixyear roads project plan.
"These guys truly are trying to
do the best that they can with the
money and the equipment that we
have," he said about the Otoe County
Roads department. "We have about
1,280-something miles (of county
roads). You could basically almost
go to Denver and back with the
amount of roads and there is rebuilding that goes on. Each commissioner is in charge of their own
district where that's done."
Commissioner Steven Lade said
the county is still trying to recover
from the 2010 flooding and the recent rainfall hasn't helped.
"It all depends on how the weather
goes and that depends on which
ones we do because we have certain
roads that we have to keep open,"
Lade said.
Roads supervisor Chad Watkins
said weather plays a huge role in
the timeline of when road work can
be done.
"If you get a half-inch of slow
rain on (the road), you're not going
to be able to get down it even with
a truck," Watkins said. "That's the
biggest thing is we kind of have a
timetable on when we can do that
stuff and when we can't. In the
springtime it's kind of hard to do
that stuff. There is a plan in place."
Other agenda items commissioners approved were:
■ Contracting with Mainelli Wagner & Associates Inc. in Lincoln to
perform mandatory bridge inspections countywide;
■ Purchasing additional rock with
Inheritance Tax funds to continue
rocking roads in the county;
■ Purchasing metal culverts from
Ace/Eaton Metals of Kearney for
$19,015.50, to replace aging culverts
east of M and 8th roads, located
northeast of Douglas;
■ Purchasing metal culverts from
Ace/Eaton for $5,798 to replace
aging culverts north of E and 16th
roads, located northwest of Unadilla;
■ And permission for the countywide scrap tire collection to take
place at the roads shops in Syracuse
and Nebraska City June 26 and
June 27.
Otoe County Roads lead supervisor Jonathan Brinkman said two
roads have been closed due to the
May 6 storm.
Culverts are out on I and 8th
roads south of Palmyra and J and
2nd roads southwest of Palmyra.
Nelsen asked Brinkman to get
quotes immediately to do an emergency replacement of the culverts
to get the roads reopened.
Brinkman said the recent rain on
the west end of the county has affected 20-percent of the county and
the roads department has been busy
removing debris and repairing rough
spots on roads.
Watkins said the crew had been
using motor graders Monday to
work on road repairs.
"We're not getting any miles upon
miles of roads opened up just because of the weather that they're
talking about towards the end of
the week," he said Tuesday morning.
"Rock truck have been running nonstop pretty much."
Roads construction supervisor
Ryan Neemann, who has been on
the job for a week, said the weather
has hindered progress.
"We're trying to get back into the
construction process. The rain it's
really hindered everything that we've
tried to get done and how fast we
get that done," Neemann said. "Just
hoping for better weather. You know
we've got a lot of projects that we
need to get going on, but the weather
and mud just got us down."
TIRES
From page A1
Spare tires are one of the main products Champlin
recycles to make park benches and picnic tables.
The company also recycles milk jugs and pop bottles
to make its products to promote a cleaner environment, and processes over 4 million tires annually.
Goebel added that the rest of the money is used
to pay people working at the collection sites and for
advertising for the project.
Goebel stressed that tires can't be dropped off at
the three locations prior to or after the collection
dates in June. Also, tires need to be dropped off
during the collection sites' hours from 8 a.m. to 4
p.m.
"We cannot take any tires prior to those times
and those dates, or after those times and those
dates," Goebel said.
Otoe County Commission Chairman Tim Nelsen
said the scrap tire collection has been successful in
the past.
"It has been very successful and we hope it's twice
as successful this year," Nelsen said.

Nebraska Extension to offer farm safety course
Nebraska Extension
Tractor Safety/Hazardous
Occupations Courses will
be offered at seven locations in Nebraska during
May and June. Any 14 or
15-year-old teen who plans
to work on a farm other
than his/her parents’
should plan to attend.
Federal law prohibits
youth under 16 years of
age from working on a
farm for anyone other
than their parents or
guardian. Certification
through the course grants
an exemption to the law
allowing 14- and 15-yearolds to drive a tractor and
to do field work with
mechanized equipment.
The most common
cause of death in agriculture accidents in Nebraska
is overturn from tractors
and all-terrain-vehicles
(ATVs), said Sharry
Nielsen, Nebraska Extension Educator. Tractor
and ATV overturn prevention are featured in the
class work.
“Instilling an attitude of
‘safety first’ is a primary
goal of the course,” Nielsen
said. "where youth have
the chance to learn respect
for agricultural jobs and
the tools involved."
Classes consist of two
days of instruction plus
homework assignments.
Classes are from 8 a.m. 5 p.m. each day. Dates
and locations include:
-- May 27-28, Fairgrounds, Kearney
-- June 1-2, Fairgrounds,
Valentine
-- June 5-6, Event Center, Lincoln
-- June 8-9, Farm and
Ranch Museum, Gering
-- June 11-12, West Central Research and Extension Center, North Platte
-- June 15-16, Fairgrounds, Wayne
-- June 17-18, College
Park, Grand Island
Pre-registration
is
strongly encouraged at
least one week before a
location's start date to the
Extension Office at the
course site. Cost is $60,
which includes educational materials, testing, supplies, lunches and breaks.
For more information,
contact the Extension Office or Sharry Nielsen at
(308)

Dan Kelly, President of CHI Health St.
Mary’s, said the community owes a debt of
gratitude to Dr. Thomson.
“That kind of continuity over the years is
absolutely invaluable in terms of creating a
stable and successful environment for health care,” Kelly said.
Dr. Thomson attended Nebraska Wesleyan University, majoring in Biology and minoring in
Chemistry. He was also on the pre-med track and graduated from UNMC in 1973.
Thomson moved home to Syracuse and had a private practice until 1980, at which time he
and his young family moved halfway around the world to India to do medical mission work.
After nearly a year overseas, the Thomson family moved home to Nebraska and chose
Nebraska City as their home in May of 1981.
Thomson has received several awards during his 40-year career, including the Nebraska City
Chamber of Commerce Individual of the Year award in the early 1990s and being named the
Nebraska Academy of Family Physicians Physician of the Year in 1998. His hobbies include
golf, running, basketball, and music.
Thomson is the founder of the Nebraska City Apple Corps, a local men’s barbershop group.
He also served on the Nebraska City Public School Board for more than 20 years and has
organized yearly or twice-yearly medical mission trips to Jamaica for the past 22 years.
In 1992, Thomson joined the Army Reserves and has been deployed four times in the past
20 years, most recently in 2012 to Kuwait. Thomson, who is a Colonel in the US Army
Reserves, always had mixed feelings about each deployment and the effects of that event
on those at home.
Dr. Dean Thomson has been an integral part of the Nebraska City medical community and is
well respected by his colleagues. According to Dr. Jonathan Stelling, the hospital Chief
Medical Officer, “Dr. Thomson has been a great partner and the community has been
fortunate to have such a compassionate and dedicated physician for so many years.”
Dr. Dean Thomson will be greatly missed by so many within our community when he retires
on May 22, 2015. We want to thank him for his many years of service and for all of the lives
he has touched throughout his career.

Eight great gardening tips for homeowners
Sandy Parmenter
[email protected]
Now that frost season is
past and people are planting or have planted their
gardens at home, we asked
for some basic vegetable
gardening tips from
Richard Jauron, ISU Extension Program Specialist, and Sarah Browning,
Nebraska Extension Office
Extension Educator.
2
Jauron: "Harden
plants started indoors or purchased
in a greenhouse outdoors
for several days before
planting them in the garden."
5
Jauron: "When watering is necessary,
water slowly and
deeply. A thorough soaking once a week should
be sufficient."
Browning: If using a
plastic ground cover to
help control weed growth
with mulch on top, either
use a soaker hose underneath the plastic or a drip
system over the top.
1
Jauron: "Before
planting the garden,
prepare the soil
properly. This includes
cultivating the area and
possibly adding organic
matter and fertilizer. Do
not attempt to work the
soil when the soil is wet."
Browning: Adding Epsom Salt is actually an old
wive's tale practice in this
area, as the soil here is not
deficient in either magnesium or sulfur, so using it
to help plants grow doesn't
actually help.
3
Jauron: "Keep
weeds under control with frequent
hoeing, hand pulling,
and mulching. Excellent
mulches for the garden
include dry grass clippings, shredded leaves,
and straw."
4
Browning: For
natural solutions to
insect and disease
problems, a copperbased solution makes a
good fungicide, and insecticidal soaps, horticultural oil, or Dipel/Thuricide, a bacteria that attacks the larval stage of
pests, all work well as insecticides. All of these
items can usually be purchased at a good garden
center.
place, and they become
more susceptible to disease
as they get older at the
end of summer.
7
6
Jauron: "Harvest
vegetables such as
green beans and
summer squash as soon
as the crop is mature to
encourage the plants to
continue to produce additional fruit."
Browning: Gardeners
need to understand that
it is hard for the plants to
do well through the entire
the season if nothing else
is planted to take their
Jauron: "Rotate the
placement of vegetables in the garden on
an annual basis."
Browning: Garden rotation is smart, but only
helps if the gardener has
a separate garden space
for each plant, otherwise
when the ground is tilled
it's all mixed together anyway, defeating the purpose
of the rotation.
Jauron: "Get the
most from your garden space by practicing succession planting. As soon as one crop
is finished plant another.
8
When cool-season crops,
such as spinach, lettuce,
and radishes are harvested, replant with snap
beans, beets, or summer
squash."
Browning: Many area
gardeners don't realize
they can successfully plant
three crops in the season
here instead of trying to
make one crop last all summer. With plantings such
as onions and potatoes
starting as early as midMarch, another crop could
take their place then in
late May or early June,
lasting about eight weeks,
and then another one
could be planted.
To decide if there is time
to plant that last crop, keep
in mind that the first frost
Thinking about spring cleaning? Don’t forget your car
Spring cleaning is a smart thing
to do for your vehicles. A few
simple steps can help boost your
vehicle’s integrity and beauty while
maintaining its value, plus you
might even regain that new-car
smell.
1. Your car is a reflection of
who you are: There’s no question
your car is a reflection on you.
Whether it’s all about horsepower,
efficient gas mileage or four-wheel
drive, your vehicle represents who
you are, where you’ve been and
where you intend to go. The design, form and function are extensions of your style and personality.
So, if you haven’t given it a
wash in a while, what does that
say about you? You wouldn’t walk
out the door without a shower, a
shave and a little spruce up.
(Would you?) So why shouldn’t
you show that same respect for
your car?
2 . Regular car washes protect
your paint job: That beautiful
factory paint job will dull and begin to chip away if you don’t maintain it. Regularly washing your
car and waxing it will help keep
your car looking as good as it did
when you pulled out of the dealer
lot.
3. Professional car washes help
maintain the value of the vehicle:
You might be more inclined to
spend money on engine issues
than the car’s exterior, but stains
and rusting can drastically decrease the value of the vehicle
over time. Especially after a long
winter, exposure to the elements
can cause damage.
Professional car washes at
places such as WaterSavers thoroughly clean the undercarriage
of your vehicle, where there may
be a buildup of road salt that
could cause corrosion to the car’s
exhaust and muffler system.
date in this area is around
Oct. 15, count backward
from that date the number
of days for planting to harvest for the preferred vegetable and add 10 days for
cold temperatures and harvesting. A last piece of advice that may come too
late for many: don't make
the garden too big.
While it's true that
plants need room to grow
and are more productive
with enough space, it's easy
to overestimate the size of
the garden you'll want to
work when you start tilling
and before the temperature starts hovering at 95
degrees.

ASK AMY
Should she be open to ‘open’?
DEAR AMY: I have been dating
“Steve” for almost four months.
He is divorced and has a young
child. We are both in our late
30s.
Based on conversations we’ve
had, I was under the impression we were a “couple,” as we
spent most of his nonchild time
together.
Early on, he told me that in
the past his relationships were
“open,” but it wasn’t something
he actively looked for — they just
happened.
He said he was looking for
a committed relationship. I
admired his honesty. However,
recently when I pushed for more
of a commitment, he informed
me that he has been in open relationships with “friends” regularly.
Now he seems to be involved
with two women.
He’s been with one woman for
a long time. Both women know
about me. He also said a committed relationship can still be
an open one.
I’ve fallen hard for this guy.

Should I be open to “open?” —
Feeling Naive
DEAR NAIVE: It is curious that
“Steve” defines his choice to sleep
with multiple people as an “open”
relationship with you. (If you
didn’t know about it and didn’t
consent to it, it’s not “open.”)
I think committed relationships can work alongside almost
any other kind of behavior as
long as the commitment and the
relationship come first. You and
he need to define very clearly
what the word “commitment”
means to each of you.
If you want to play with him
and other consenting adults,
then go for it. Always use a
condom with all partners —
especially Steve. This sort of
arrangement means it’s “open
season” for STDs.

Today’s Birthday (05/15/15).
Your home can really thrive this
year. Give extra attention to planning changes. Make them after
June 14. Nurture a romantic spark
into a flame after October 13. Make
personal discoveries after October
27. Give up something you don’t
need that you’ve been clinging to.
Grow and develop new capacities.
Tend your garden with love and it
flowers.
Aries (March 21-April 19) —
Discipline with a personal project
pays off. Take advantage of intense
creativity. Write, edit and record.
The action is behind the scenes.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) —You
can solve this puzzle. Have a
spiritual and philosophical conversation. Find your own personal
truths. Listen to another’s interesting views and experiences.
Gemini (May 21-June 20) — A
careful work-related investment
may be necessary. An important
project benefits from your attractive presentation.
Cancer (June 21-July 22) —
Adventure beckons. Don’t dash
off yet. The itinerary could change.
Jealousies could spark. Luck favors
discipline. Stick to your budget.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Don’t
make expensive promises. Take
one step at a time. Provide clear
instructions. Slow and steady wins
the race. Someone’s talking about
your work.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — It’s
a good day for agreements. Sift
through fantasies and unrealistic
expectations to get down to what
you really want. Don’t criticize
someone else’s choice.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) —
Communicate openly now. Stay
objective about a hot topic, if possible. Your personal story can make
headlines. Help others understand.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — It’s
time, not money, your sweetheart needs. You’re the stabilizing
influence. Neither a borrower nor
lender be. Keep it practical.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
— You can find the funding. Let
people know what you need.
Find treasure with the garbage.
Guard against overspending or
overeating.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Be
gentle, especially when confronting
an authority figure. Ask questions
respectfully and respond honestly. Resistance is proof that your
efforts are making a mark.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — In
a stalemate, don’t ask for favors.
Hold your temper. There may be a
temporary clash between love and
money. Guard against losses.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) —
Extend a cooperative hand. Having
a meticulous partner helps. You’re
in the eye of the storm. Don’t talk
back. Keep your wits. Communications clear the air.
