Supaman Will Dance in Malta and Glasgow

This past summer, people packed the field to see Supaman's July 28 performance at the Red Ants Pants festival in White Sulphur Springs, a one of a kind performance from one of Montana's own. The first words he shared with the mostly non-native crowd were "Welcome to Apsáalooke country," acknowledging the land they were on.

Christian Parrish Takes the Gun, known professionally as Supaman, is an Apsáalooke rapper and fancy dancer who was born in Seattle, Washington, and grew up in Crow Agency, Montana. Combining Native American culture and urban hip-hop culture, this award-winning Native American dancer and innovative hip-hop artist spreads messages of hope and faith through music and dancing. As part of the Northeastern Arts Network series, he will perform in Malta on November 5 and in Glasgow on November 6.

Supaman’s numerous awards include the MTV VMA Award and the Indigenous Music Award for Best Hip Hop and Best Producer. He is also a recipient of the Aboriginal Peoples Music Choice Award, the Native American Music Award, and the North American Indigenous Music Award, among others.

He will share his talent and message on Monday, November 5 at Malta High School, located at 1 High School Lane, South Ninth Street West. The performance begins at 7:00 PM. Individuals without Northeastern Arts Network season tickets can purchase tickets at the door. Tickets prices will be $15 for adults, $13 for senior citizens, and $10 for students.

On Tuesday, November 6 at 7:00 PM, Supaman will perform at Glasgow High School, 229 Seventh Street North in Glasgow, Montana.

For more information on either event, interested individuals should call Jill Hill, Northeastern Arts Network President, at 406-489-4304.

The Northeastern Arts Network is a non-profit organization dedicated to the cultural enrichment of the Sidney, Glasgow, and Malta, Montana, communities. With their winter concert series and school outreaches, they work collectively to provide a performing arts series and school assemblies/workshops to their rural communities.

The Supaman performance helps to advance their mission of providing a variety of cultural experiences through the performing and visual arts.

CSPD to Offer Free Trainings in November

In the month of November, Region II of the Comprehensive System of Personnel Development (CSPD), in partnership with Havre Public Schools, will be offering free training for general and special educators, paraprofessionals, social workers, occupational therapists, parents, and others who work with children.

The first training, a Mandt System Training, will occur on November 9-10 at the Fifth Avenue Christian Church on 2015 Fifth Avenue in Havre with presenter Clarissa Schaffer.

Schaffer, who is a certified Mandt trainer, is in her ninth-year teaching at Centerville School. She has worked with special needs students through an afterschool program and with Youth Dynamics for

several years, which is where she developed her passion for the Mandt system.

The Mandt System is a comprehensive, integrated approach to preventing, deescalating, and if necessary, intervening when the behavior of an individual poses a threat of harm to the self and/or to others. Using a combination of interpersonal communication skills, conflict resolution strategies and physical interaction techniques, the Mandt System builds on skill development through a system of alternatives for assisting people in managing themselves.

The focus of the Mandt System is primarily on building healthy relationships in order to facilitate the development of an organizational culture that provides the emotional, psychological, and physical safety needed in order to teach new behaviors to replace the behaviors that are labeled “challenging.” The goal is to ensure the safety

of all involved through skillful and nonphysical means. However, physical strategies are also taught to provide additional “least restrictive” options in the event that the mismanaged person poses a clear threat of substantial harm to self or others if physically unassisted.

This training, limited to 20 attendees, offers eleven Office of Public Instruction (OPI) renewal units to teachers. Because this is a two-day training, attendance is required both days to receive attendance certification.

Saturday, November 10 involves learning the physical part of the training, and groups are limited to ten people by the Mandt System Company, who determines the curriculum and how it is taught. If the CSPD reaches their maximum of 20, the presenter will break participants into two groups on Saturday of the training (both morning and afternoon).

DAVE SAYS:

Who Is Dave Ramsey?

Dave Ramsey is a personal money management expert, popular national radio personality and the author of three New York Times bestsellers – The Total Money Makeover, Financial Peace Revisited and More Than Enough. In them, Ramsey exemplifies his life’s work of teaching others how to be financially responsible, so they can acquire enough wealth to take care of loved ones, live prosperously into old age, and give generously to others.

DEAR DAVE,

If someone is following your plan, is it a good idea to get mortgage disability insurance during Baby Step 2?

~Craig DEAR CRAIG,

No, it is not. Mortgage disability insurance is a gimmick, and I would never recommend it to anyone.

I think I know where you’re going with this. During Baby Step 1, I encourage people to save up and set aside a beginner emergency fund of $1,000. Baby Step 2 is where you start paying off all your debts, except for your home, using the debt snowball system. A thousand dollars may not seem like a lot in savings during that time, but in the beginning it’s an attainable amount to save. Plus, it’s more than a lot of people have when they make the decision to get out of debt and gain control of their finances. Then, after finishing Baby Step 2 you move directly in Baby Step 3 — fully-funding your emergency fund with three to six months of expenses.

What I would recommend is having long-term disability insurance in place. It’s fairly inexpensive, especially if you get it through your employer.

~ Dave DEAR DAVE,

I’m driving a 12-year-old car with 210,000 miles on it. The car needs close to $2,000 in repairs, and it’s worth $5,000. I have $40,000 in cash saved, $40,000 in investments, and I make $80,000 a year. I also have $15,000 in student loan debt, but the only other thing I owe on is my house. Should I pay to repair the car, or buy something else in the $15,000 price range? ~Brett DEAR BRETT,

Let’s see, if you wrote a $15,000 check for a newer car and wrote a $15,000 check for the student loans, it would leave you with $10,000. I wouldn’t buy a $15,000 car in your situation. I’d buy a $10,000 car. You could probably sell the old one for around $3,000 if it needs repairs, combine that with your money and get a $13,000 car. Then, you could write a check and pay off the student loan debt.

With no car payment, no student loan payment, and a good car, you can really lean into your budget and saving money. You’d have no debt except your home, and you could rebuild your savings in a hurry. You’d be in really good financial shape in about six months. Plus, you’d have $15,000 in the bank in the meantime! ~Dave

New Child Care Center Opens in Malta

A new child care center named We Care Daycare opened recently in Malta. The center will be filling a huge need in the community due to a shortage of child care in the area.

Owner of the center, Caitlin Anderson, purchased and renovated an old church at 203 South Fourth Street East in Malta where she and her staff can care for about 40 children. On Friday, October 5, the center was populated by only nine children, but Anderson claims that they often care for 31-35 children a day.

Anderson, who also coaches and owns a title company, was motivated to open a child care center after she previously lost her own provider and discovered there were no affordable care options in the area. “I was paying 1,200-1,400 dollars a month for child care, and with that expense on top of medical insurance, I wondered how working was even cost effective,” she said.

At We Care Daycare, parents pay $425.00 a month per child, and that cost includes a preschool option. On Monday through Thursday from 9:00 AM—12:00 PM, children receive play-based and developmentally appropriate learning experiences that foster their engagement. Research shows that play is fundamental to language growth and neural pathway development. Bobbie Jo Martin, who has sixteen years’ experience in early childhood care, serves as the primary instructor at We Care Daycare. Anderson reported that the two and three-year-old children have a classroom separate from that of the four and five-year olds.

We Care Daycare, which is open from 7:00 AM until 5:30 PM, also offers drop-in care for $25.00/day. Furthermore, parents can enroll their children in the preschool alone for $125.00/ month.

Another aspect of We Care Daycare that sets it apart from similar facilities is its infant area. “We offer a separate area that is structured for an infant’s development. Keeping the infants separate not only minimizes the potential spread of germs but Continued on page 14...

Tool

When declaring our independence in 1776, Thomas Jefferson

acknowledged our Creator as the origin of natural rights. Government only secured those rights, and this made America exceptional.

Later, our Constitution purposely restricted the federal authority to specific and enumerated powers ultimately making ours a nation of limited government, individual liberty and equal opportunity. True conservatives endorse these principles, and this is key.

Karl Marx introduced wealth redistribution in his Communist Manifesto in 1848 and his philosophy immigrated to the United States in the early 1900s. Unlike Jefferson, Marxist followers view government as the origin of rights. Bigger and bigger government bequeaths greater and greater rights paid for with higher and higher taxes until government eventually traps the non-producing class in dependency and the producing class in debt. Liberals, socialists, progressives, Democrats, GOP Never Trumpers and Democratic Socialists all embrace massive government. This is also key, and the political battle between the left and right is an ideological conflict between Marx and Jefferson.

Because progressivism and liberty are mutually exclusive, one advances only at the expense of the other. To believe political solutions can be found by compromise is to ignore this truth. America will never survive a mythical mix of a little bit of freedom (conservativism) and a little bit of slavery (progressivism). Progressives understand this absolute so endeavor to destroy the Constitution obstructing them, which brings us to today’s battle.

Even though President Trump only skirts the edges of true constitutional conservatism, progressives are panicked seeing the the great things he is doing for our country. Their imaginary utopia, 100 years in the making, is unraveling so they blindly hate Trump and all conservatives. Today, progressives have adopted the violent tactics executed by Hitler’s Brownshirts. For example, because all speech, and ideas contrary to collectivism must be silenced, Judge Kavanaugh, his family, life and legacy are being destroyed. Militant leftists have revoked his right to due process and presumption of innocence, yet their true target is much bigger than Matt Kavanaugh.

Anyone daring to speak against progressivism can expect similar attacks be they in the hallways of the capitol or at a restaurant in downtown D.C. Could you weather such an assault or are you only a sunshine patriot?

Consider this: It took Hitler less than a decade to convince Germans the Jews were a subhuman race worthy only of extermination.

How long before heavily indoctrinated Americans place a similar value on old white men? Think about it. Our constitutional republic, founded on faith, family and freedom, is being destroyed from our left flank.

Malta to Celebrate Octoberfest...

On Thursday, October 25, the city of Malta invites the community to celebrate with a night of fun fall activities at their Octoberfest event. Octoberfest will take place this year without its partner event the annual Parade of Lights, which will instead occur on November 18, so as to be closer to Christmas. Octoberfest will allow the community to celebrate autumn with some family-friendly activities, such as a Scarecrow Decorating Contest, a community Soup-Cookoff, a Pumpkin Carving Contest, and some beautiful storefront décor.

Not only to celebrate autumn, the Malta Area Chamber of Commerce will be using the Octoberfest to kick off the 2018 holiday season with its Annual Christmas Scrip Program. The purpose of the Christmas Scrip Program is to encourage people in the Malta area to shop locally.

To participate in the program, consumers may apply for an interest-free consumer loan from local banks in an amount up to $1,000 that can be used with Malta Chamber merchants.

Scrip dollars may only be used with those merchants who participate. The funds are paid back in ten equal monthly increments throughout the rest of the year.

Octoberfest festivities will begin at 5:30 PM with a scarecrow decorating contest in Veteran’s Park on Front Street. All participants will provide their own supplies for the contest, and prizes for first, second, and third places will be awarded to the best scarecrows of the evening. This event will be open to groups and individual community members only; businesses may not participate.

The fun will then move to Stockman Terrace at 6:00 PM for a soup cook-off. Entry for the soup cook-off will be $10 for each team, and 50 Dino dollars will be awarded to the participant with the best soup. Participants are required to bring their own supplies and equipment to prepare the soup, and local merchants will

...and Christmas Scrip Kickoff supply bowls, spoons, and napkins for community members to sample each entry.

Businesses are encouraged to get into the Harvest Spirit by entering the store front decorating contest for the week of Octoberfest. If a business chooses to decorate and wishes for assistance in the process, a variety of groups are available to help with decorations: Key Club, FCCLA, Boys and Girls Club, or any other group of choice. Customers shopping in each location on Thursday the 25th will be provided a ballot to vote for the best store front decorations. A trophy will be awarded to the best decorated business after the ballots have been counted.

To round out the day, community members are invited to bring their best carved pumpkins into Patty’s Greenhouse any time on October 25 to be entered in the Pumpkin Carving Contest.

The community of Malta hopes to see a crowd at this year’s Octoberfest.

Enjoying Everyday Life Joyce Meyer

The Key to Enjoying Your Journey in Life

What does it mean to be led by the Holy Spirit? Some may refer to it as being filled with – or sensitive to or anointed by – the Spirit. It sounds really spiritual, but being led by the Spirit is actually a very practical part of living the Christian life.

Simply put, to be led by the Holy Spirit just means to be obedient to Him.

The Holy Spirit does such awesome, yet practical work in the lives of God’s children. He is our Comforter, Counselor, Helper, Intercessor, Advocate, Strengthener and Standby. He teaches us and guides us into truth…and He even brings the things we learn back to our remembrance as we need it.

And the best part of it all is that He lives in each of us. Ephesians 3:16 (AMP) tells us we can be “strengthened and spiritually energized with power through His Spirit in your inner self, [indwelling your innermost being and personality].”

He comes to live in our hearts when we’re born again, and then He teaches and guides us according to God’s plan and purpose for us. One of the ways He does this is by convicting us of the sins in our life; we learn what’s right and wrong as we grow in our faith. We may get by with things that are not right for awhile, but the time comes when we need to grow up.

I remember when I would go to church every Sunday and then gossip about the pastor or whatever I didn’t like about the service. Of course, I was not a very happy Christian during that time. And I couldn’t have been a very good example of one to others either. Critical and judgmental attitudes like that, or murmuring, being unthankful, and complaining hinder our relationship with God and our representation of what a Christian is.

But eventually, I began to get this nagging, uneasy feeling every time I would say something negative about the pastor…or anyone else for that matter. I could feel that what I was saying was wrong, and I knew in my heart it was the Holy Spirit telling me it was time to grow up and mature spiritually.

Now I am immediately aware when I say or do something that is not pleasing to God. And this is what He wants for all His children: to develop sensitivity and obedience to His voice as He leads each of our lives. Romans 8:14 (ESV) declares that “all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God.” This term “sons” indicates a level of maturity and intimacy in our relationship with Him.

God is not looking for spiritual robots; He wants sons. He doesn’t want us all just following a bunch of rules for the sake of obedience.

Jesus made a way, through His perfect sacrifice, for our sins to be completely washed away and removed from us so we can have a personal relationship with God. We are free to obey Him simply because we love Him and we know that everything He tells us to do, or not do, is for our good. We just need to learn to follow His lead.

It’s actually exciting to follow the Holy Spirit. I can tell you that life will never be boring with Him in the lead.

When I first met my husband, Dave, he had been praying for a wife…and particularly someone who needed help. He came to the house one day to visit a friend of his who lived upstairs from us. I was outside washing my car and he said, “When you finish that one, you want to wash mine?” My response was, “If you want your car washed you can wash it yourself!”

It had to be the Holy Spirit leading him, because he says that’s when he thought, “That’s the girl for me!”

Everyone’s story is different but the point is the Holy Spirit wants to lead us all according to the plans God has for each of our lives. In our relationship with God, our part is to pray, study His Word, and learn to develop sensitivity and be obedient to the Holy Spirit’s lead.

As we do, He promises to do this: “I will give them one heart [a new heart], and put a new spirit within them. I will take from them the heart of stone, and will give them a heart of flesh [that is responsive to My touch]” (Ezekiel 11:19 AMP).

Trust the Holy Spirit and follow His lead. You’ll discover His way is the best, most exciting journey you can find! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ranching For Profit Blog -

Dave Pratt Healthy Land, Happy Families and Profitable Businesses www.ranchingforprofit.com

What’s Your Profit Target?

A Ranching For Profit School alumnus was talking to me about his financial goals. I asked how much profit he wanted to make. He told me he figured he needed $20,000 to live. I reminded him that his salary or draw must be deducted as an overhead cost before calculating profit.

I asked again how much profit he wanted. It was clear he didn’t have a target when he said, “I guess $10,000 would be good.” I asked what he would do with $10,000 profit. He said he’d never had any reserves and he’d use it to start a savings program. “So your profit is to build financial security,” I said.

Then I asked what he’d do if he made a $20,000 profit? He said that he’d pay down his debt. “So your profit is about building financial security and to get the debt under control,” I said. Then I asked, what would you do if you had a $50,000 profit?” In an instant he said that he’d go on a golf vacation. “So your profit is to build financial security, to get debt under control and to reward yourself,” I added.

Finally I asked, “What would you do with the money if your business made a $100,000 profit.” Without blinking an eye he named an organization to which he’d said he’d like to make a big donation. “So your profit is to build financial security, control the debt, reward yourself and support causes you believe in.”

After a pause I asked him again, how much profit he wanted to make.

He didn’t seem as satisfied with a $10,000 target as he had been moments ago and he named a much higher target.

Money is not a very effective motivator. Money is only important when put in the context of what it will be used for. Monetary targets are important, but having a clear picture of how the money will be used when those targets are achieved is much more motivating.

Malta Day Care continued...

also enables us to design activities and then provide adequate time for spontaneous, self-directed play. Research reveals that play is more valuable when children craft and carry out their own play activities,” Anderson said.

According to Anderson, the biggest challenge in this business venture was bringing the building up to code. Along the way, she encountered several unknown expenses. “A person just isn’t aware of all that is involved with renovating a building that is nearly 100 years old,” she stated.

Also about the process, Anderson added: “I especially think the licensing process needs improvement; however, I had good assistance from Tammy Phelps, a staff member with Family Connections in Great Falls, who also assisted our child care center Director, Marcy Inman, with mentoring and coaching support.

“I am not only thankful for the community’s support but grateful that I have a staff of eight who are all passionate about young people. We are filling a need in Malta while also bringing jobs to the community,” she added. “I am a licensed provided, as well, so that I can fill-in as needed.”

Lori Eckhardt, who serves as Marketing and Fund Development Manager at Family Connections in Great Falls, testified to the importance of programs in rural areas of Montana that offer early care for children. “Facilities like We Care Daycare are such a critical resource for communities to increase their available workforce; after all, parents can’t work without reliable child care.”

Eckhardt hopes that other rural areas that lack early care for children will look upon the success of programs like those offered at We Care Daycare and perhaps find motivation to start a similar business.

Any parents interested in childcare in Malta can contact Marcy Inman, the facility director at We Care Daycare, by calling (406)654-2596.

Farmer-Rancher Night Coming to Chinook

On Saturday, October 27 from 6 PM – 9 PM, the Chinook Chamber of Commerce invites the community to celebrate Blaine County Farmers, Ranchers, and all those associated with agriculture at their Farmer-Rancher Night.

The event will take place at the Blaine County Fairgrounds with a no-host cocktail hour to be held by the Chinook Eagles Club beginning at 6 PM. Dinner will follow at 7 PM. Shaina Hofeldt, who works with Andy’s Supper Club in Havre, will cater the meal—serving prime rib, garlic mashed potatoes, a vegetable, roll, and dessert.

After dinner, the regional band Five in the Field will entertain the crowd. Playing mostly classic country, Five in the Field is comprised of TJ Overcast, Lacy Wortman, Kole Engle, and Ian Davies on guitars, Rob Everingham on drums, and Dave Carlson on bass. According to Overcast, “Jim Conrad normally plays bass, but this time, we’re changing things up.”

Regarding their playlist, Overcast added, “Sometimes we wing out a little bit of who knows what.”

For those who counted and thought, “Wait, that’s six guys on stage,” the band’s name is not a misnomer. Actually, the musical group is named after the penalty a cowboy gets when he misses one leg during a team roping event; the five second penalty is called ‘five in the field.’ “So in essence, we are the half added band,” Overcast jokingly explained. “We have six members, and our ironic name helps people remember it.”

In sharing additional plans for this appreciation event, Chinook Chamber President Sarah Pratt said, “No tickets will be sold for the event. We have an amazing group of sponsors that are helping with the costs.” The event planning committee created different sponsor levels, ranging from $100 for a Bronze Sponsor to Platinum Sponsors at the $1000+ level.

“After several businesses and individuals asked if they could provide higher levels of support, we created the Diamond and Platinum Sponsor categories,” Pratt explained.

These sponsors will be recognized at the event in various ways, depending on their level of support.

Pratt went on to say that all Blaine County residents are invited to help show appreciation to the area’s farmers and ranchers. “Although farmers and ranchers will be our primary guests at the event, others with a support role in the ag industry—like bank loan officers, seed and implement dealers, governmental support agency personnel, and event sponsors—will also be our guests.”

People from the community are invited to come and show their support, as well. A freewill donation can cover dinner costs for those attendees not directly involved in agriculture.

All attendees must be 21 or over.

Some community members will likely recall earlier Agricultural Appreciation Nights where merchants and businesses could purchase ‘drink tokens’ which their guests could then use at the bar during the evening. Pratt said, “Sponsors will have their drink tickets waiting at the door for them. We also plan to have available the option of purchasing drink tickets onsite so that sponsors can distribute them to their guests or customers that night, should they choose.”

Planners of this year’s event are preparing for 400 guests. According to Pratt, “We had help from folks who were involved in the planning for the ag appreciation nights in the eighties and nineties, and that’s how we arrived at our estimate for the number of guests.” While the focus of the night is on extending appreciation to farmers and ranchers, Pratt added, “We are welcoming anyone who wants to show appreciation.

We will be accepting freewill offerings as well as sponsorships to underwrite the cost of the evening.”

Anyone interested in providing sponsorship for the upcoming event is encouraged to visit the Chamber’s website: chinookmontana.com or to contact Pratt, either by phone at 406-720-0837 or by email at president@chinookmontana. com. Megan Singh, who works with the Chamber, can also provide information or answer questions. She can be reached at (406) 357-3115.

CSPD Training continued...

Workshop sessions will begin both days at 7:45 – 8:00 AM with sign in, followed by the presentation’s content, and will close each day at 4:00. Registration for this training is encouraged by November 5.

A second training will occur at the Fifth Avenue Christian Church on November 12 when presenter Shawna Heiser will share strategies for Reaching and Teaching Children with Emotional Disturbances.

Heiser, who holds an MS, BCBA, operates Special Learning One-on-One, a pediatric practice assisting clients with a wide variety of special needs. Her specialty is working with families of children and adolescents with behavioral, emotional, communication, and developmental disabilities. She currently consults with several school districts and early childhood intervention programs, while continuing a private behavioral counseling practice. Heiser’s motto in serving children is “Every Child Deserves an Opportunity for Independence.”

Reaching and Teaching Children with Emotional Disturbances will provide a thorough presentation of positive behavioral interventions in a variety of environments.

Discussion will center around types of behaviors—task avoidance, escape motivated, attention seeking, and behaviors that

produce sensory consequences—and the role motivation plays in behavioral success in many school, home, and community settings.

Children with severe emotional disturbance and behavioral concerns will also be discussed at length. Audience members will be able to apply the information presented through videos, activities, and examples of how to set up positive plans for the children in a variety of environmental settings immediately in their respective situations.

The training will also contain discussions about setting limits that work and applying positive interventions. Workshop attendees will examine the common pitfalls that sabotage behavioral intervention plans and what to avoid when wanting to make significant behavioral changes. Discussions of how to implement 504 accommodations in a regular education setting, how to conduct a Functional Behavioral Assessment, how to write a Positive Behavioral Plan and how to use an Antecedent/Behavior/Consequence chart will be conducted, as well. Finally, a brief discussion of how to draft positive behavioral goals for IEP’s or IFSP’s will be presented.

Throughout the presentation, attendees will receive a plethora of information on what seems to work best for the children and adolescents with the various disabilities and how to set up positive behavioral supports

and interventions for the individuals they are serving.

This workshop will begin at 8:00 AM with sign in, followed by a morning session from 8:3011:30. A break will occur from 11:30-12:30 for lunch, followed by the afternoon session from 12:30-3:30. Six OPI renewal units are available for this training.

Interested persons can register for either training by going online to www. blueponyk12.com where they will click on the CSPD icon and then on the hyperlink that reads: Register Here For Upcoming CSPD Training Events!

Registrations for the Mandt Training will be accepted through November 5, provided that the workshop doesn’t reach its maximum of 20 participants, and registration for the Emotional Disturbances workshop will be accepted through November 8.
