By JUSTIN A. COBB Scott County Times The process of drafting a budget for the upcoming fiscal year starting Dec. 1 is slated to begin soon. Scott County commissioners discussed the impending budget process when they met Monday evening, board of commissioners chair Robert Schafer said by phone the following afternoon. “We’ve talked to the auditor, and we hope to start the process in earnest in about a week and a half,” Schafer said. “The end of the first week of September we ought to have things started.”

Various county departments have already begun working on their portions of the budget, including Scott County Nursing Center and Scott County Health Department, according to Schafer. Schafer said he hopes the state having a budget in place will help revenues, as the flow of funding from the state to subordinate public bodies, including counties, was impeded during the two years the state lacked a budget. “We hope that’s going to help matters, that they’ll be timely in reimbursements, money coming back. That helps us on the revenue side,” Schafer said. “We always

“The end of the first week of September we ought to have things started.”

Robert Schafer Chair, Scott County Board of Commissioners try to keep expenses down, but once we start doing the figures, we’ll have a better idea where we’re at.” Commissioners will need to

have the new budget finalized and approved by Nov. 30, the last day of the current fiscal year, with a tentative version made available to the public 30 days before the vote, according to Schafer. In other business, the commissioners appointed Rick Barnett to the Mauvaisterre Drainage and Levee District and Henry Likes to the Scott County Drainage and Levee District, both for three-year terms, according to Schafer. Scott County Nursing Center had 38 residents as of Monday, Schafer said. The meeting lasted about 30 minutes, according to Schafer.

Have a plan to deal with disaster By DUANE FRIEND University of Illinois Extension The recent catastrophic flooding in the Houston area reminds us that emergency preparedness can make a huge difference in getting through a natural disaster. In Illinois, disasters can include tornadoes, flood-

ing, winter storms, and earthquakes. The following information is from a Missouri Extension fact sheet on emergency preparedness. Food, water, first aid, and other supplies are necessary parts of an emergency kit. To judge how long you can store food supplies, look for an “expiration date” or

“best if used by” date on the product. If you cannot find a date on the product, then the general recommendation is to store food products for six months and then replace them. Avoid foods that are high in fat and protein, and don’t stock salty foods, since they will make you thirsty. Familiar foods can lift

morale and give a feeling of security in time of stress. Also, canned foods won’t require cooking, water or special preparation. You need to have these items packed and ready in case there is no time to gather food from the kitchen when disaster strikes. Sufficient supplies to last several days to a week are recommended.

Select foods that require no refrigeration, preparation, or cooking and little or no water. Try to eat salt-free crackers, whole grain cereals, and canned food with high liquid content. Some examples of recommended foods include canned meats, fruits, and vegetables; canned milk and soup; trail (See, DISASTER, A2)

life after all the devastation caused by the weather. Our prayers go out to all of them in this troubling time. I hear nothing but good things about the new barber in town and the guys that have been there for a haircut are looking very nice. I think he is a keeper and we want to welcome him. It amazes me when someone sees me out and about and says I remember you from Anderson Clayton I don’t remember some of them they look different with street clothes on. We

wore uniforms to work in. First solid white shirt and pants then they changed them for dark blue pants and light blue shirts we all looked like mechanics. But we had names on them and it was hard to make a mistake on someone then. Unless of course one could not read. A lot of wonderful people were employed there. Don’t forget coffee at Pitt Stop is very good along with a fresh donut. The Bowling alley had excellent lunches and Buck and Jo’s have wonderful cinnamon rolls

to go with their coffee which is very good.

Dealing with yellowjacket wasps By CHRIS ENROTH U of I Extension Last Sunday night we arrived home in Macomb, tired from a short trip visiting family in Quincy. Moreover, hauling around an infant and two young boys full of boundless energy tend to produce weary parents. Upon opening the door into the house, we were greeted as usual by our dog Murphy. Excited as a puppy to see us, even now as his years approach eleven. As is our routine, I immediately let the dog out while preparing beds and fetch sleeping children from the car. Returning to let Murphy inside, the dog grabs his favorite bone and leads the way upstairs to bed. As I knelt beside the dog to give him a good night scratch, I noticed his ear was swollen. Upon examination, I saw no evidence of a wound or bite. My wife and I assumed it was due to a sting or spider bite. Too tired to investigate further and knowing we still had a long night of nursing, burping, and diaper changing ahead, we fall asleep. The next morning, I made my way to the back door to let out an eager Murphy. I began my coffee ritual of blindly searching for the filters and measuring cup. Suddenly, Murphy let out a flurry of barks. These were unlike his usual warnings to the woods or neighbor dogs. These were angry barks, which I equate to a dog’s version of expletives. Opening the door, I called him inside. As he approached, I noticed he was under attack by yellowjacket wasps! I quickly swept off the offending wasps, rushed Murphy inside and closed the door. The swollen ear mystery from the night before was solved, but now we have a problem. An angry nest of yellowjacket wasps in my backyard where the kids play. The common yellowjacket (Vespula vulgaris) is often mistaken for honey bees. Similar to honey bees, yellowjackets are about ½ inch long and live in social colonies with a single queen. They both have alternating bands of markings. However, yellowjackets markings are a distinct bright yellow and black, whereas a honey bee’s colors are a dull yellow-orange. Honey bees are also covered in small hairs, whereas yellowjackets are mostly hairless. Finally, yellowjackets are wasps, whereas honey bees are bees. Methods for Controlling Yellowjackets Controlling a yellowjacket colony brings a share of risk. If a homeowner is not comfortable eliminating a yellowjacket nest or is allergic to stings, hire a pro-

fessional. If you do not have a yellowjacket nest in your yard but are frequented by their foragers, traps can be setup to draw them away from gathering areas. Traps can be purchased or made at home. Keep garbage can lids on tight and food cleaned up is enough to keep roving yellowjackets away. Yellowjackets often will not sting a person unless the nest is agitated. If a yellowjacket colony is identified near a home or where it may come in contact with people (or nosy dogs), make sure to keep children out of that part of the yard and warn adults and neighbors. Tips for controlling a yellowjacket nest: • Treat the nest during the late evening or early morning when yellowjackets are less active. • Avoid using a flashlight as this will draw them to you at night. If you need light, place a piece of red cellophane over the flashlight. • Wear protective clothing, such as long-sleeved shirt and pants. Tie sleeve and pants legs shut or pull socks over your pant legs. • Most treatments will take at least one day. If after two days there is still activity, (yellowjackets still flying back and forth) repeat the treatment. Exposed nests are those that are constructed above ground and may be hanging in a tree or attached the eaves. These are often out of reach and best treated with an aerosol spray labeled for wasps and hornets. Spray directly on the entrance of the nest. Ground nests can be controlled by placing an insecticide dust containing permethrin or carbaryl in and around the nest entrance at night. The insecticide will adhere to the insects as they enter and leave. Control is often achieved after a few days. Concealed nests are those found inside wall voids of homes or attic spaces. These are often much harder to control, and a pest management professional is recommended. Never close an opening to a concealed yellowjacket nest as the colony may chew through the drywall and enter the house! It is unfortunate Murphy had to take the brunt of the stings before we found out what was the cause Though we are grateful it wasn’t our children, as they have much less body hair to protect from stinging insects. Luckily, the dog is doing just fine as the yellowjackets could only penetrate the fur on his ears and only got in two stings. I’d wager Murphy is feeling proud that he once again did his duty in protecting his family by acting as a pincushion for yellowjackets.

“Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable--if anything is excellent or praiseworthy-think about such things.” —Philippians 4:8 NIV

First National Bank of Winchester 26 W. Cherry 742-3134

t is good to spend time each day in quiet reflection, thinking and praying about our lives. Much of our daily life is spent “inside our own heads,” though just how much varies a lot with individuals and their circumstances. Introverts and people who live alone probably spend more time inside their own heads than extroverts and people who live with others. In any case, there are perils to reflection and interiority; quiet reflection can easily turn into brooding over real or imagined grievances. The teacher on the way to school and the office worker on the way to work may both be imagining the difficult individuals they are sure to confront. How much of your interior life is spent in these imaginary conflicts? While it can be helpful to rehearse the argument you plan to have with someone, these rehearsals can easily become obsessive and filled with unkind thoughts about others. Also, do you find yourself dwelling on unchaste thoughts throughout the day? Sometimes we must make a conscious effort to clean up our interior space. We should recall Jesus’s warning that whoever is angry with his brother or sister is subject to judgement and whoever looks at a woman lustfully has committed adultery in his heart. (Matthew 5:22-28) – Christopher Simon

Winchester, Illinois

LLCC mentorship program MacMurray College seeks entries to Homecoming Parade receives recognition Dr. Karen Hunter Anderson, executive director of the Illinois Community College Board (ICCB), recently visited Lincoln Land Community College (LLCC) to recognize the college’s Open Door Mentorship Program as a statewide model for community college engagement and alignment with business. The visit was part of a statewide tour to unveil the ICCB’s Workforce Education Strategic Plan and highlight best practices across the state in workforce training. Anderson was joined by college president Dr. Charlotte Warren who discussed how LLCC has developed an innovative partnership with local businesses to support the academic success and workforce goals of African American male students. The program provides these students with career exploration, internships, and mentorship that lead to employment opportunities in selected career pathways. “Underrepresentation of African-American males has been a longstanding issue for our nation,” said Warren. “Lack of education severely limits opportunity for these men, but it also represents an underutilized resource for our community. Thanks to the support of The Quantum Growth Partnership (Q5), the

economic development partnership led by The Greater Springfield Chamber of Commerce, LLCC has a chance to change that trajectory. Public, private and nonprofit sectors have come together not just with their dollars, but also with their time and commitment to help us positively impact educational persistence, retention and completion of these students. We are proud to be a part of their journey and hope to provide career opportunities and keep these talented young men right here in our community for years to come.” Since the program’s inception, more than 30 local business and industry partners have signed on to mentor students, lead professional development sessions or offer internships. “The Open Door Mentorship Program demonstrates a solid commitment by Lincoln Land Community College and area business and economic development partners to foster the academic and future workforce success for African American males,” said Anderson. “As community colleges across the state implement recommendations in the Workforce Education Strategic Plan, LLCC’s program sets the standard for strengthening connections with business and industry

to improve student outcomes and grow the economy.” The Workforce Education Strategic Plan is the culmination of regional meetings held in each of the state’s ten economic development regions with partners from across the education, economic development, and workforce sectors. The resulting plan identified four priority areas to be addressed over the next five years: increase early careerrelated education and exposure, address essential and occupational skill gaps, align education and training programs to employers’ needs, and strengthen connection among public partners and engagement and alignment with business. “The Workforce Education Strategic Plan will expand and enhance Illinois’ ability to attract, retrain and grow business and develop educational opportunities to support students’ success in the workforce,” said Jennifer Foster, ICCB Deputy Director for Adult Education and Workforce. For more information, including a copy of the Workforce Education Strategic Plan, please visit iccb.org/ workforce.
