This Week’s Racing News Trevor Bayne has been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis but will continue to race in NASCAR. Multiple sclerosis is a chronic disease that affects the central nervous system, often causing pain, numbness in the limbs and a loss of vision. Symptoms vary by patient and can disappear for months at a time, making it difďŹ cult to diagnose early on. Doctors have cleared Bayne, 22, to compete. “I am in the best shape I’ve ever been in, and I feel good,â€? Bayne said. “There are currently no symptoms and I’m committed to continuing to take the best care of my body as possible.â€? Bayne became an overnight sensation in 2011 when he became the youngest winner of the Daytona 500, triumphing with the fabled Wood Brothers Racing team in only his second start in NASCAR’s premier series. Bayne, whose younger sister also has MS, will drive full-time in the No. 6 Ford Mustang during the 2014 Nationwide Series season.

Iowa Fishing Report For lake locations, maps and other information, go to www. iowadnr.gov/Fishing/FishingReports.aspx The Iowa Department of Natural Resources issues a weekly ¿shing report on Thursdays in an effort to provide the latest information heading into the weekend. The weekly ¿shing report is compiled from information gathered from local bait shops, angler creel surveys, and county and state parks staff. For current information, contact the district ¿sheries of¿ce at the phone number listed at the end of each district report. NORTHWEST Lake Smith Smith Lake had about four inches of ice right off the end of the boat ramp last. Last two days have made ice questionable at best. Limited ¿shing activity this week. Conditions are sure to improve after the cold front arrives. Lake Catherine There were a few anglers out last week but no reports on success. Ice thickness is probably around 3-4 inches. Clear Lake A few anglers have ventured out late last week near Farmer’s Beach on the south shore. They were picking up some yellow bass with a few crappies. Others have tried just off the McIntosh and Ventura boat ramps with limited success. Lake Cornelia There was ¿ve inches of ice on Nov. 28; down to three inches Dec. 4 due to rain and warmer temps. Anglers were doing well on yellow bass 7-8 inches in size. Little Wall Lake Ice is unsafe at Little Wall Lake. Crystal Lake One report of an angler catching bluegills in eight feet on the edge of the dredge cut this past weekend. Blue Pit Blue Pit was stocked with 1,500 catchable size rainbow trout on Nov. 27th. They were not hit very hard by anglers before it froze up so there are good numbers yet. Ice is unsafe right now but may be good on the weekend. Four inches minimum is recommended for foot travel. Bluebill Lake Around three inches of ice. Reports on ice thickness of area lakes have been from 2-4 inches at the beginning of this week. It has melted some the last day or two, but the weather forecast shows colder temps this weekend, so that should add some more. Four inches of ice is recommended for anglers traveling by foot with minimal gear. For lake updates and ¿shing information in the north central area contact the Clear Lake Fish and Wildlife of¿ce at 641-3573517. Big Spirit Lake Iowa Great Lakes - Ice conditions have been questionable thru Dec. 5, however; colder than normal temperatures expected the next few days should improve ice conditions. Scharnberg Pond 1,500 rainbow trout were stocked Nov. 9th.

NORTHEAST Volga Lake Volga Lake has about four inches of ice. Recent rain may cause the ice to be extremely slippery. Use caution when going on the ice. A reminder that opening shotgun deer season is this weekend and Volga Lake is a popular wildlife management area where hunting takes place. Bluegill No Report: Crappie - Slow: Anglers have been catching crappies near the Àoating pier. Lake Hendricks Ice is about four inches thick but spotty especially with recent measurable rainfall on top. Use caution when going out on ice especially around the aerator. No motorized vehicles including ATVs are allowed on the ice. Bluegill - No Report: Crappie Slow: Lake Meyer The lake has about 3 to 4 inches of ice. Use caution when going out on newly formed ice. Check ice depths often. Bluegill - Fair: Small jigs tipped with wax worms are tempting ¿sh this week. Crappie - Fair: Fish are scattered but ¿sh up to 11 inches are being caught on small jigs tipped with minnows. Upper Iowa River (above Decorah) Fish are in their overwintering holes. Smallmouth Bass - No Report: Walleye - Slow: Anglers are having luck using jigs tipped with a twistertail. Try ¿shing off the bottom. Fish are biting really light. Upper Iowa River (below Decorah) Fish are in their overwintering holes. Smallmouth Bass - No Report: Walleye - Slow: Anglers are having success using a variety of jigs tipped with a twistertail. Use a slow presentation. Turkey River (above Clermont) Please use caution when walking out on ice especially where there is Àow. Check ice depths often. Fish will likely be found in deeper holes. Use a slow presentation. Turkey River (below Clermont) We have received no information regarding ¿shing on this water body this week. Cedar River (above Nashua) Ice depths vary especially with the warmer weather this past weekend. Few have been out trying the ice. Continue to use caution when walking out on river ice as depths may vary especially in areas where there is Àow or springs. Northern Pike - No Report: Smallmouth Bass - No Report: Walleye - Slow: Anglers are using 1/8 ounce jigs tipped with minnows. Anglers are ¿nding ¿sh near the bottom of the deeper holes. Decorah District Streams Modest #18 blue wing olive hatches have still been occurring on warmer afternoons providing dry Ày opportunities. Streamer and wooly bugger patterns have been very effective. Midge emerger and nymph patterns have also produced good trout. Colder weather is on the way. Check forecasts before venturing out!

Needy Iowa families to receive 45,900 pounds of free pork in December

SANTA AND MRS. CLAUS VISIT HAMPTON PUBLIC LIBRARY

Iowa families in need this holiday season will receive a total of 10,200 fresh, boneless pork loin roasts with a total value of nearly $107,000 from Iowa Select Farms in cooperation with the Deb and Jeff Hansen Foundation. These 4.5-pound pork roasts have a combined weight of 45,900 pounds, enough to provide 244,800 servings. From Monday, Dec. 2, through Friday, Dec. 6, Iowa Select Farms delivered a total of 7,200 pork loins with a combined weight of 32,400 pounds to nearly 60 community organizations, food shelves, pantries and food banks in rural communities where Iowa Select Farms has employees and producers. These organizations will then distribute the free pork to local families in need during December. The pork loins, with a combined value of $75,492, will provide 172,800 servings. In addition to the deliveries to food banks and pantries, Iowa Select Farms and the Deb and Jeff Hansen Foundation will give away 3,000 fresh, boneless pork loins to families in need from 5-9 a.m. Wednesday, Dec. 18, at the Iowa State Fairgrounds in Des Moines. While supplies last, each family will receive one 4.5-pound roast that will provide 24 servings of lean, nutrient-rich pork. This donation will provide approximately 13,500 pounds and 72,000 servings of lean, wholesome pork

valued at $31,455. Hunger is a serious problem in Iowa, where one in eight Iowans are food insecure, which means they do not have the means to obtain nutritionally adequate and safe food.
