BMX bike trail draws most Comment at Lehigh meeting

By BILL HALBFOERSTER The Home News

Although there was discussion about a municipal well, financial workshop, and crew leader position, when it came to public comment at last Tuesday’s Lehigh Township Board of Supervisors meeting, a BMX bike trail found in the woods at Indian Trail Park

drew the most attention. Concern was voiced about a sign reading “No Bicycles” posted at the park the previous Friday because of the trail made long ago, but only recently discovered by Chief of Police Scott Fogel. Ronald Shaw told the supervisors that the trail is well maintained by the young-

Directors on the Northampton Area School Board on Monday voiced their concerns over two bills in the General Assembly, which would eliminate the school property tax – S.B. 76 and H.B. 76. Board president David Gogel showed a notice on the pending legislation in Harrisburg, and said that 24 out of 26 Senators support it and 86 of 102 Representatives are also for the bill. Gogel said the Bangor School Board has voted to support the bills, and suggested that the local board voice its sentiments. They did just that. Dr. Michael Baird called it a “slippery slope”, when figuring how the school districts will pay for all they need.

sters. “They keep it clean, they take care of it. When I saw the sign, I got a little upset, and the kids were upset.” The supervisors, however, brought up the question of liability. “Who takes responsibility if anyone gets hurt?” they asked. The boys have made ramps Continued on page 9

Business Manager Terry Leh said school districts will be allowed to tax for building debts of the past, but questions provisions to finance after a designated date, which could have an effect on what the district has borrowed for the new middle school. Dr. Baird said the budget and appropriations are two things to be considered. “It looks good for the politicians, but where is the viable alternative?” Schools Supt. Joseph Kovalchik said the actual system needs to be looked at. “My concern is switching over from property taxes to sales and use and personal income taxes. We’re not quite sure how to deal with it in the budget.” Continued on page 13

Legion breakfast benefits Wreaths Across America By BILL HALBFOERSTER The Home News

The toils of war have left thousands of America’s armed forces dying or suffering injuries with loss of limbs. Gold Star Mothers is a nonprofit organization that has dealt with the death of their loved ones. They are supporting another non-profit out of Maine called Wreaths Across America that respects the graves in which their sons and daughters lie. An official ceremony will be held on Saturday, Dec. 14 at 12 noon at Cedar Hill Memorial Park just north of the city of Allentown in which wreaths will be laid for their loved ones by local, proud Gold Star Mothers. Carol Resh of Fogelsville has organized that ceremony. On Sunday, Eckley E. Patch Post #470, Bath, held a pancake and sausage breakfast

to assist in providing funds for the wreaths. Mrs. Resh’s son, Army Capt. Mark T. Resh, was an Apache helicopter pilot before he died in the war of Iraqi Freedom on Jan. 28, 2007. He was a Silver Star recipient. Color Sgt. Joshua B. Smith, U.S. Marine Corps, died Nov. 5, 2012 during Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan. Attending the breakfast in Bath were members of his family, Gold Star Mother Nancy Smith, her husband Brian and Joshua’s sister, Nancy Smith, of Emmaus. Continued on page 13

October is Breast Cancer Awareness month Submitted by: Krista Davis

This October, Quality Insights of Pennsylvania supports National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a time to promote regular mammograms to increase early detection of breast cancer. It is also a time to educate people about how to reduce their risk, empower communities to join the fight and a time to celebrate breast cancer survivors. According toÂ breastcancer.org, approximately 1 in 8 women in the United States willÂ develop invasive breast cancer at some point in her life.Â For women in the U.S., breast cancer death rates are higher than those for any other cancer, besides lung cancer. TheÂ Pennsylvania Breast Cancer CoalitionÂ estimates 32 women each day are diagnosed with breast cancer in the state. More than 2,000 will die from the disease. But early screening, an annual breast exam by a doctor and annual mammograms for women

over 40 have been shown to increase the odds for survival. If you are age 40 to 49, talk with your doctor about when to start getting mammograms and how often you need to schedule a screening. If you are age 50 and older, get a mammogram every two years. Talk with your doctor to decide if you need a screening more often. These are general guidelines. It is important to talk to a doctor about your risk for breast cancer, especially if breast or ovarian cancer runs in your family. According toÂ breastcancer.org, aÂ womanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s risk of breast cancer approximately doubles if she has a first-degree relative (mother, sister or daughter) who has been diagnosed with breast cancer. Consulting with a doctor is the best way to decideÂ when and how often to get a mammogram. Quality Insights of Pennsylvania, the Medicare Quality Improvement Organization for Pennsylvania, offers downloadable resources and

tools on its Web site to help advance the fight against breast cancer. VisitÂ www.qipa. orgÂ and click onÂ ResourcesÂ andÂ PreventionÂ to access items like the Breast Cancer Fact Sheet and the Mammogram Bookmark.

Grow UR Biz in 2013 – Rise and Shine

By CAROL RITTER

Get up, get up, rise and shine, you sleepy head, revelry, revelry, iBuenas, wake up buttercup and howdy! I read recently in Forbes magazine (Glenn Llopis), that there are 5 things super successful people do before 8am. Early rising is a trait of many successful CEOs and influential people. Margaret Thatcher was awake by 5a.m, Robert Iger the CEO of Disney by 4:30am, Gwyneth Paltrow (not a morning person, 4:30am) and Michelle Obama. Just plain, old early. I personally have some successful colleagues whom I know I can connect with at 7am. Here we go..... The BIG FIVE 1. Exercise - most people who exercise in the morning are more likely to do it more frequently. The reason: boosts your energy level for the day. 2. Eat a Healthy Breakfast - the reason: when you get to work you can concentrate on work rather than food an empty stomach will affect your thoughts. 3. Map out your Day- write your “to do” list before all the interruptions of the day, set daily goals, and a time for thinking. The reason: helps you to focus better 4. Visualization - focus on the successes you expect each day. The reason: it will improve your mood and outlook. 5. My personal favorite -

Baptisms

Two infants were baptized at Sunday morning worship in Christ U.C.C. Church, Bath. The Rev. Frances Merkel officiated at the christening of Jacob Daniel McFadden, son of Patrick and Petra McFadden, and Zena Rose Bartholomew, daughter of Zee and Angela Bartholomew. Also present were Zena’s siblings Tushi and Yurri.

Make your Day Top Heavy. The reason: we all have things on our list that we dread and would like to have disappear. Do them first, get rid of the problem child right away. Generally speaking, the morning is the time when you are well-rested and your energy level is up. Now’s the time to tackle those impossible tasks, do them first and your work day will get better as the day progresses. Your homework - pick one of these five successful traits and start today. Get your work life in order and you just may find yourself incredibly more productive, well- rested and ready to rise and shine to a new day. Early to bed, early to rise makes a super successful person healthy, wealthy and wise. Thanks Ben Franklin!

EAA Young Eagles and Cadets of Civil Air Patrol take to the skies By: Rusana Kasriel

Civil Air Patrol and EAA Young Eagles program form a perfect synergy in developing love of aviation among our youths. To that end, these two organizations came together on October 12 at Slatington Airport where cadets of the Civil Air Patrol and EAA Young Eagles took to the skies to experience a flight of an airplane from a pilot’s point of view. For some, it was their first flight, not as a passenger but as a trainee. The young pilots learned firsthand how to handle the controls, read the instruments, and the workings of an aircraft, as well as safety. The event was designed to encourage love of the aviation among our youths. The planes were provided by the volunteers of the Experimental Aircraft Association. To honor these two organizations and to promote cadets of the Civil Air Patrol to the ranks of Captain and Lieutenant, State Representative Julia Harhart, briefly joined the event. EAA Young Eagles program was launched in 1992 by its sister organization Experimental Aircraft Association which was founded in 1953. Young Eagles program was developed to provide an opportunity for young people between the ages of 8 to 17 to go flying in general aviation airplanes. Since its inception, more than 1.6 million Young Eagles have enjoyed free flights through the generosity of EAA volunteer pilots. Young Eagles have been registered in more than 90 differ-

ent countries and have been flown by more than 42,000 volunteer pilots. For the cadets of the Civil Air Patrol aviation education is part of a long and proud history of the Civil Air Patrol, which started in 1941 a week before the attack on Pearl Harbor. Although CAP’s initial focus was reconnaissance flying. The group's mission expanded when German submarines began to prey on American ships off the coast of the United States. In response, CAP planes began carrying bombs and depth

charges. A CAP crew from Rehoboth Beach, Delaware was the first to disrupt a Nazi sub attack, saving a tanker off Cape May, New Jersey. By the end of the war, CAP pilots located 173 submarines, attacked 57, hit 10 and sank 2. A German naval commander later confirmed that coastal U-boat operations were withdrawn from the United States "because of those damned little red and yellow airplanes." Today Civil Air Patrol, in its Air Force auxiliary role, flies more than hundred thousand (100,000) hours annually in performing homeland security, disaster relief and drug interdiction missions at the request of federal, state and local agencies. Many EAA Young Eagle members and Civil Air Patrol cadets go on to obtain their pilot licenses, become professional pilots, astronauts, or aviation engineers with training they received through these two incredible organizations.

Comment On Sports By Pete Fritchie

FOOTBALL✷ ✷ ✷

The newest revelations about the much greater number of head concussion injuries NFL football players have been suffering--undetected and unreported--is affirmation of what critics of the violent contact sport have been claiming for years. The recent financial settlement agreed to by the NFL is overdue and will help but it is too late to help many players and not enough to help all

those injured. That’s because many of these injuries are lifetime. And the cost of lifetime care for the huge number of injured players is more than NFL teams could or would agree to pay. The question now is whether the NFL will move forcefully enough to reduce the number of serious head injuries. A start has been made which was supposed to greatly reduce headbutting this season. But much unnecessary head hitting continues in most games. Further rule changes concerning head-hitting tackling are needed, also a greater effort to enforce rules already adopted by the NFL to reduce concussions--obviously not being strictly enforced.

of defense against many different types of infections, including respiratory infections and influenza. "Once a person with diabetes gets an infection, it's much harder for them to get rid of it, and it can lead to dire consequences, even death," says Registered and Certified Dietitian-Nutritionist Debra Spector. "And since some diabetic patients don't normally respond well to treatment, prevention is key." Taking a special diabetes multivitamin -- usually found in the diabetes section of a drugstore, not the vitamin section -- allows a diabetic person to be proactive with their health, and avoid nutrient deficiencies that can lead to problems. The year-long study among 130 patients, published in the Annals of Internal Medicine, found that the incidence of infection was much lower among diabetics who took a multivitamin versus those who did not. Infection occurred in only 17 percent of diabetic patients who took a multivitamin versus the 93 percent who took a placebo. The study also found that regular multivitamin usage reduced the rate of minor urinary tract and gastrointestinal infections in people with diabetes. Because of the nature of the disease, it's not uncommon for diabetics to experience nutrient deficiencies. Diabetes medications and frequent urination can lead to the loss of vital nutrients that protect the body. "Since there are many health risks that can result from vitamin and mineral deficiencies, I encourage my diabetic patients to find a multivitamin supplement with more potent levels of important nutrients to meet their needs," says Spector. "It should contain Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA), an important nutrient that most 'regular' multivitamins do not have. I like Multi-betic Diabetes MultiVitamin since it has 23 important nutrients, including ALA, designed to help maintain healthy blood sugar levels, support vision and promote nerve function."

Georgetown Rd. bridge To be replaced in 2015 By BILL HALBFOERSTER The Home News

The structurally deficient county bridge on Georgetown Rd. over the Monocacy Creek will be replaced with a new bridge in 2015, Lower Nazareth Township’s Board of Supervisors were told last Wednesday night. With PennDOT and Northampton County representatives present, an architectural plan view of the proposed bridge and access work was shown. The bridge, now very narrow, will be widened to 28 ft. and have 160 ft. of approach work. Storm drainage will be corrected, and Norfolk Southern will be putting on a new surface for their railroad crossing. The bridge is located near Dutch Springs. Tom McGloughlin, project manager with Borton-Lawson Engineering & Architecture, said construction will start in spring of 2015 and be completed in one construction season. Traffic will be alerted about the bridgework with warning signs and be detoured on Hanoverville Rd. or Township Line Rd., but McGloughlin assured residents in the area that there will be local access to the neighborhood driveways and private property. Trucks can’t use the bridge now because of a 20-ton limit, so they will continue the route now used. The $1.4-million cost of the bridge will be shared, 80% by the state and 20% by the county. The bridge will have 11-ft. lanes and a 3-ft. shoulder, with a reinforced concrete deck and parapets. The old bridge was built in 1924 and is made of concrete encased steel beams. A phase one environmental assessment has already been made to determine the environmental impact of the project, said Michelle Rehbogen, an environmental scientist

with ASC Group, Harrisburg. The sketch plan of the project will be available for the public to see at the municipal office for two weeks. Other Matters • Township Manager Timm Tenges said that for two years the township’s budget has bee reduced by doing without things. He expects that there will be less revenue in the coming year because he believes the economy is not as great as publicized and there are still many people unemployed, and so no earned income taxes from them. Colonial Regional Police Commission is considering hiring another officer, or 25 in all, which could mean an extra cost of $51,489. Tenges expects an increase for the township in the CRPD budget. • It was noted that Lori Jordan will not return to the board of the Memorial Library of Nazareth & Vicinity after her term runs out. Tenges said they should have two people to represent the township on the board for 2014. If anyone in the township is interested in serving, they should notify the township office or Tenges. • Hecktown Vol. Fire Co. responded to 12 emergency incidents in September and 18 non-emergency incidents.

Healthy Eating

A wise course in enjoying a healthy diet is to start the day with a high fiber breakfast--of cereal and fruits. The favorite of many is breakfast cereal (organic preferably) with bananas. Add raisins for boron, which helps brain function. A boron deficient diet can also cause drowsiness. One of the surprise listings in foods to avoid because of high carbohydrates is watermelons. Normally fruits have been considered a part of a healthy diet. But not watermelons, and most fruit juices-a surprise. Lemon, lime and grapefruit juice are recommended.

HOROSCOPE LIBRA--Sept. 23 to Oct. 22--If someone you love seems thoughtless, don’t let it bother you. The slight was unintended. SCORPIO--Oct. 23 to Nov. 22--Get more difficult chores done in mornings. Lighter tasks can be undertaken during the afternoon when energy level is lower. SAGITTARIUS--Nov. 23 to Dec. 21--Keep your surroundings clean and orderly. An educated mind and an organized existence go hand in hand. CAPRICORN--Dec. 22 to Jan. 19--An unexpected gift could bring great joy. Although the value of it may be small in terms of money, the meaning isn’t. AQUARIUS--Jan. 20 to Feb. 18--A weekend trip could bring you back to your work with a refreshing outlook. Drinking and eating should be kept in moderation. PISCES--Feb. 19 to March 20--Someone new comes into your life with whom you will probably form a long-time relation- ship in a business, friend- ship or even marriage. ARIES--March 21 to April 20--Pattern your personal behavior in a manner to be admired and respected. TAURUS--April 21 to May 20--Your work load becomes lighter, actually permitting you to be productive. Think before you speak! GEMINI--May 21 to June 20--Keep your surroundings orderly and neat. There’s little to be admired in a sloppy existence. CANCER--June 21 to July 22--No matter how much education you feel you have, no one ever has enough. One should never stop learning. LEO--July 23 to Aug. 22-Put a little fun in your life. Become involved with a social organization or plan your own entertainment by inviting friends over. VIRGO--Aug. 23 to Sept. 22-Play the role of diplomat, but if you feel someone has been mistreated stand up for her.

Know The Weather What is a coalescence? That’s how moisture droplets in the air combine to form raindrops. There are two ways this occurs. First, moisture droplets in clouds are of different sizes and in moving air the larger droplets move more slowly than smaller ones and often collide, building into bigger droplets, which eventually fall as raindrops. The more frequent type of coalescence is where ice crystals and water droplets combine (usually in the middle areas of cumulonimbus clouds). Some of the water in the droplets evaporates and then condenses on the crystals, which later drop as snow or ice pellets.

Wreaths

Continued from page 1

Another Marine who died March 3, 2011 in Operation Enduring Freedom was Marine Lance Corporal Nicholas Rodriguez. His Gold Star Mother, Anna Rodriguez, was present on Sunday. Also present at the breakfast were Pat and George Geiger of Northampton, parents of Army Sgt. Christopher Geiger, who died July 9, 2003 in Afghanistan. Mrs. Resh said the mission of Wreaths Across America is “Remember the fallen. . .Honor the veterans and their families. . .Teach the children the value of freedom.” Post Commander Brian Radcliffe and his fellow Legionnaires were happy to host the fund-raising breakfast for such a worthy cause, raising funds to honor fallen veterans. For more information, or to donate money toward the wreaths, call Carol Resh at 610-398-1124. Checks are payable to Wreaths Across America.

School Board Continued from page 1

Dr. Baird said people who can least afford it will be hit with more expenses. “The state can’t predict how much money they will have.” He noted that people from New York shop for clothing at the Tannersville Crossings mall because of the sales tax they have in New York. “There are just too many ifs,” he said, adding that he sees difficulty getting money from the state for teachers that are needed.“Are the Legislators answering questions before they pass these bills?” Gogel commented, “Do they (the legislators) realize all the pitfalls that are confronting us?” Leh said the plan by the state is to relay on substantial sales and use and personal income taxes. Other Matters • Kovalchik said the teachers had a “productive” in-service day on Monday. • Before the meeting on Monday, the school directors toured the construction site for the new middle school. Gogel said it was “pretty impressive” to see the block walls, and feels they are better than drywalls. The first floor is two-thirds finished, and reinforcing bars will make the structure strong. Other board members said they were happy with what they saw. Gogel said the project is ahead of schedule. • In personnel, the board: Approved a child-bearing leave for Stephanie David; the resignations of Christine Marto, long-term substitute German teacherw, Benjamin Childs as assistant boys basketball coach, and Maria Pulli as assistant principal in the borough elementary schools. • Approved were the participation/attendance of two teachers and 30 students in the 2014 music competition in Williamsburg, Va., April 24-27, 2014; Ms. Anita Mateyak, FBLA Club advisor, and John LaBarre to accompany five student members to attend a Pa. State FBLA Leadership Workshop on Nov. 10-11; Candice Pinto, a short-term

Oct. 17-23, 2013 13

substitute special education teacher at the middle school; Lindsey Lemmel, short-term substitute German teacher at the high school; Kevin Mann, girls softball head coach for the 2013-14 school year (he was present and received congratulations); contract between NASD and Paul Buechle as a psycho-educational evaluator for this school year; Dr. Kathleen Ott, Ms. Melissa Montith, Stephen Seier, Ms. Krista Green, and Ms. Deidre Vachier to attend Keystones to Opportunity conference in Frazer, Pa. Nov. 13-15; Ms. Krista Green, NASD literacy coach, to attend PIIC-Statewide Learning Opportunity for Instructional Coaches on Oct. 29-31 at Penn State University. • Under facilities, a 5-year service agreement was okayed with Eastern-Time of Allentown for service and inspection of the frie alarm systems at Franklin Elementary and Washington’s Crossing at an annual rate of $350 per location. • The administration will prepare and solicit annual bids for maintenance/custodial supplies, instructional/ general supplies, athletic supplies, gasoline/diesel, and fuel oil/natural gas for 201415. • The annual service agreement with Asset Works, Inc., for database application service support and maintenance at a cost of $1,350 was okayed.

FINAL NOTICE AND PUBLIC EXPLANATION OF A PROPOSED ACTIVITY IN A 100-YEAR FLOODPLAIN To: All interested Agencies, Groups and Individuals This is to give notice that Northampton County under 24 CFR Part 58 has conducted an evaluation as required by Executive Order 11988, in accordance with HUD regulations at 24 CFR 55.20 Subpart C Procedures for Making Determinations on Floodplain Management, to determine the potential affect that its activity in the floodplain will have on the human environment for Community Development Block Grant under Title I of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, as amended. The Bath Borough Creek and Century Road Reconstruction Project is a multi-year project. Creek Road and Century Road will be reconstructed in several phases. Approximately 1,300 LF of Creek Road and 285 LF of Century Road will be reconstructed. Century Road is not located in the floodplain, however a small portion of Creek Road crossed the Monocacy Creek (2800 square feet) is located in the 100 year floodplain, in the Borough of Bath Northampton County, Pennsylvania. Northampton County has considered the following alternatives and mitigation measures to be taken to minimize adverse impacts and to restore and preserve natural and beneficial values: i.a. Locate the Project within the Floodplain. This project is an existing roadway with a bridge. Reconstructing the roadway will improve existing runoff conditions. i.b. Locate the project outside of the floodplain. This is not a viable option because the project is limited to reconstruction of an existing roadway which crosses the floodplain. i.c. No Action or Alternative Actions that serve the same purpose as the “no action” alternative was considered and rejected because of the safety and environmental implications caused by the deteriorated roadway. Residents require safe access to their homes. iii. All materials and construction equipment used during construction will be removed upon project completion. This project does not require any floodproofing otherwise required by FEMA Coastal Standards and the International Residential Code. Absolutely no obstructions or negative changes to current stormwater or drainage patterns will be caused by the roadway reconstruction project. The County will assure that the project scope, as described above, is executed and the necessary language will be included in all agreements with participating parties. The County will also take an active role in monitoring the construction process to ensure no unnecessary impacts occur nor unnecessary risks are taken. Northampton County has reevaluated the alternatives to construction in the floodplain and has determined that it has no practicable alternative. Environmental files that document compliance with steps 3 through 6 of Executive Order 11988, are available for public inspection, review and copying upon request at the times and location delineated in the last paragraph of this notice for receipt of comments. There are three primary purposes for this notice. First, people who may be affected by activities in floodplains and those who have an interest in the protection of the natural environment should be given an opportunity to express their concerns and provide information about these areas. Second, an adequate public notice program can be an important public educational tool. The dissemination of information about floodplains can facilitate and enhance Federal efforts to reduce the risks associated with the occupancy and modification of these special areas. Third, as a matter of fairness, when the Federal government determines it will participate in actions taking place in floodplains, it must inform those who may be put at greater or continued risk. Written comments must be received by Northampton County at the following address on or before October 25, 2012: SSM Group, 2005 City Line Rd., Bethlehem, PA 18017, (610) 849-9700 Attention: Tina Roseberry. Comments may also be submitted or further information can be requested via email at tina.roseberry@ssmgroup.com. A full description of the project may also be reviewed from 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM Monday – Friday at the above address. Responsible Entity: Northampton County, the Honorable John Stoffa (10/17)

Allen Township Supervisors BBCP active in farmers Debate how to number homes Market and coming duck race Allen Township’s Board of Supervisors have had requests from the local fire company and ambulance unit to have houses in the township numbered so they can find the location during emergencies. The fire chief said he’s not concerned with the color of the signs, but in a high density area home owners need to have some kind of reflective sign, as large as they wish, so long as the numbers are easily seen from the roadway. While the Uniform Construction Code calls for numbers four inches high, they should either be three or four inches. As the debate went on Thursday night, it was noted that on Howertown Rd.

the majority of House colleagues in moving House Bill 1437, the general appropriations portion of the 2013-14 state budget. The legislation contains no new taxes and spends $28.376 billion, a modest 2.3 percent increase over last year, which is within the rate of inflation. For the third consecutive year, Pennsylvania’s spending plan for the fiscal year ahead has been delivered on time using no new taxes. This budget forces state government to live within its means, just as you do with your own personal budget, while spending only what it has and not taking on new debt. The pending loss of $220 million due to federal government cuts to education, health and welfare programs makes avoiding the need to raise taxes especially important. With existing revenues, we supported essential services in the Commonwealth without placing an additional burden on the backs of the Pennsylvania taxpayer. A record $10 billion total state dollars is being invested in K-12 education as we continue to support our students. This is especially noteworthy, as we recover from the cuts to state funding imposed by the Rendell administration during fiscal years 2009-10 and 2010-11. At that time, the governor used federal stimulus money to backfill education funding, while cutting the state’s contribution and sending more of those tax dollars to Philadelphia. Funding for the school districts in the 137th District will increase over the 2012-13 budget as follows: • Bangor Area School District– $485,512 (3.2 percent increase).
