NPRC backlog continues to impact veterans
Davidson calls current plans ‘unacceptable’
to express his concern with the nearly 500,000 backlogged veterans record requests. As a result of COVID-19, the NPRC has been understaffed and unable to process record requests in a timely manner, which has led to major By Nathaniel Kubik DarkeCountyMedia.com issues regarding veterans benefits that include medical care, service awards, DARKE COUNTY — military honors at funerRep.

COVID-19 vaccines. The NPRC closed over a year ago, and has been sporadically working at a very limited capacity, at times as low as 25 percent of their usual staffing. The
result is that veterans are waiting inordinate periods of time to access benefits they earned while serving, and some have been buried without honors because of these delays.
Thomas Pitman, Director of Darke County Veterans Services, said that certain Darke County veterans have been forced to wait upwards of three months to receive the response needed to acquire benefits. Pitman confirmed the issues are being felt in a big way, and the delay has made it difficult to properly care for veterans throughout the county. “The biggest problem that we’ve had is a veteran passing away and the
family doesn’t have the discharge,” said Pitman. “Recently, we haven’t been able to get some of the requests back and a number of veterans have not received proper military honors at their funeral.” Pitman went on to state that his office has been able to receive discharges via phone call in emergency situations, but submitting requests to the organization has simply not worked See NPRC | 3A
City addresses false alarms, building inspections By Erik Martin
DarkeCountyMedia.com
GREENVILLE — Owners and tenants of commercial properties in Greenville should be aware of new regulations in the Treaty City, as Greenville City Council adopted two measures to mitigate false fire alarms and improve building inspections. The new regulation on false alarms allows for the city to bill building owners and tenants of properties a charge of $25 for three to seven false alarms occurring within a calendar year. The fine goes up to $100 for each false alarm thereafter, and eventually may include the owner being compelled to disconnect the system. City Law Director Mike Rieman told council the legislation is primarily intended to deal with businesses and occupants which have “an acute problem” with false alarms. New regulations on fire inspection fees calls for a $75 charge for each re-inspection of a property after an initial and second visit if there are remaining code violations. Greenville Fire Department Chief Russ Thompson said the new fees for building inspections should provide motivation for business owners and tenants to get their structures up to code. “If we have to start coming back for a second, third or fourth re-inspection, which we’ve become accustomed to on certain places in the city over the last couple of years, that’s when an inspection fee of $75 is going to kick in, until we get voluntary compliance,” Thompson said. “We will not charge for inspection or re-inspection as long as the violations have been cleared on second inspection,” he added. “Basically, it’s a small monetary incentive to get business owners or tenants to comply with the fire code and clear the violations within an agreed-upon time, which is normally up to 30 days.” In other business, council accepted a report from its Ad Hoc Committee regarding talks between the city and Greenville Township on a joint Fire/EMS district. The city accepted a feasibility study proposal from John D. Preuer & Associates in the amount of $11,750, with the cost split equally between the city

Sharp From page 1A
People want to look their best for these occasions — and especially, for the photos which will tell the story years from now. Thankfully, there is one memorable place in Darke County that residents have been able to count on for help with special occasions and everyday living. Celebrating its 10th anniversary this month in downtown Greenville, Merle Norman Cosmetics and studio owner, Pam Sharp, have been providing people of all ages the opportunity to look exceptional all year round. Founded in 1931 by Merle Nethercutt Norman, the daughter of Darke County natives who settled in Logansport, Ind., Merle Norman Cosmetics has lead the way in providing skin care products for women of all ages. Having studied medicine and chemistry in the early 1920s, Merle Norman developed a patented trio of “scientific preparations” which she called the “Three Steps to Beauty,” which include a cleansing cream, foundation (Miracol), and powder base. Since then, the company, which is also celebrating its 90th Anniversary in 2021, has expanded and developed an entire cosmetics line, emphasizing the importance of skin care as the foundation for looking one’s best. Pam Sharp, owner of Greenville’s downtown Merle Norman Cosmetics studio, has spent much of
her career in the beauty field. Having studied cosmetology since the early 1970s, Sharp worked as a hairstylist and make-up artist in Orlando, Fla., Columbus, Dayton and Arcanum. It was while working at the Cut, Curl and Tan-It-Here salon in Arcanum that Sharp was encouraged by her clients — many of whom faithfully used Merle Norman products — to consider opening a studio of her own. While resisting at first, Sharp made the decision to apply for a Merle Norman franchise and attended the two-week mandatory training at the Merle Norman corporate headquarters in Los Angeles. Then, with the support of Kevin, her husband of 35 years, Sharp opened her Greenville Merle Norman Cosmetics studio, located at 309 S. Broadway, in April, 2011. “What sets Merle Norman apart from other similar companies is that all studio owners must go through this intense twoweek training in LA, just to be able to sell the product in a retail setting, “ said Sharp. “Even though I came in with a cosmetology background and several decades of experience, I spent almost two years familiarizing myself with the Merle Norman product line, and I am always learning more.” In addition to the full Merle Norman line of cosmetics, Sharp also displays and sells highend fashion jewelry and accessories for those who wish to add a little extra sparkle or ‘bling’
to their look for special occasions, like proms or weddings. “These are unique pieces…reasonably priced, that you might not see in other places. I select items that I would wear myself, “ said Sharp. Over the past 10 years, Sharp’s Merle Norman Studio has become the place to get great beauty advice and achieve an exceptional look. Networking with other nearby Mainstreet businesses such as Roots and Studio One, Sharp hopes that women looking for the perfect prom or wedding look will stop by, relax, and know that they have friendly experts on hand to help them. As always, Sharp encourages everyone to come in and try out the products before purchasing them, which is in keeping with the“Try Before You Buy” motto of Merle Norman Cosmetics. Sharp added, “We all try to work together to help women feel beautiful for their special occasions!” To visit Merle Norman Cosmetics, stop by the store at 309 S. Broadway in Greenville, or on Facebook at Merle Norman of Greenville Ohio. Questions? Call Pam Sharpe at the studio, 937-459-5030. Open hours are Wednesdays and Thursdays (10 a.m. to 5 p.m.), Fridays (10 a.m. to 4 p.m.) and Saturdays (10 a.m. to 2 p.m.) and by appointment.

Arcanum baseball stacking up wins By Gaylen Blosser DarkeCountyMedia
ARCANUM – The Arcanum varsity baseball team under the direction of veteran coach Randy Baker is putting a lot of wins in the 2021 column. The Trojans wins keep piling up with recent victories over Marion Local by an 8-7 score, an 8-0 win over Twin Valley South and a 15-5 victory over Tri-County North. The wins are no surprise to Arcanum graduate, Nate Kubik, a four-year member of the varsity team and starting catcher for the Trojans. Kubik is a 2016 Arcanum graduate and a 2020 graduate of Ohio University where he received his degree in Communications and Political Science. “We lost in the 2015 district final my junior year 1-0 to Cincinnati Country Day,” said Kubik. “And then lost to Versailles 1-0 my senior year in the sectional finals. So, they were some heartbreaking losses, but I’m still proud of my my time at Arcanum and what we were able to accomplish.” Kubik’s junior and senior year saw the Trojans winning back-to-back CCC titles. Former team members include Connor Pohl, a starter for The Ohio State Buckeyes baseball program, along with Jordan Dubbs, Austin Baker, Cole Burrell and Colin Hable. “Conor Pohl played on the team, Jordan Dubbs played centerfield, Coach Baker’s son Austin Baker was really good, Cole Burrell played shortstop, Colin Habel played first

base my junior year,” noted Kubik. “I credit everybody on the team – we were just a good team,” continued Kubik. “We had played sports together since we were in elementary school. We were all really good friends, there was just a good camaraderie there, we all felt very connected to the team and we all had a ton of respect for Coach Baker.” “He’s a force in Darke County sports,” Kubik said of Coach Randy Baker. “He has built a culture at Arcanum that is a winning culture. Obviously, players come and players go but Coach Baker’s strategy has always stayed the same and he is a very sound leader.” Arcanum moved to the school’s new baseball diamond Kubik’s freshman year, a year the team learned added valuable lessons from Coach Baker. “We did a lot of work on the new field and that was part of the team building – working on the field,” Kubik shared. “Coach Baker had us out there after every
practice and every game. We would go over there Saturday evenings and weekdays when we didn’t even have practice. There are a lot of things we did together as a team that weren’t necessarily baseball-related that year that meshed it all together.” “Coach Baker is a great guy – that’s all I can say about him” Kubik concluded. “It’s kind of a cliché but I really do believe sports teach kids life skills and how to deal with adversity, how to accept your losses, and how to work as a team. Coach Baker really focuses on those ‘outsideof-sports moments’ that teach you how to work together and how to continue to get better. It’s is obviously directly related to baseball in some sense, but after you leave, there are things that stick with you. So, I’m very happy to see the team doing well so far this year and I wish them all the best. Playing high school sports are the moments you never get back.”

GREENVILLE – The Vandalia-Butler Lady Aviators brought an undefeated 4-0 MVL record and a 6-1 overall season record to Lady Wave Stadium, home of the Lady Wave and left town with 9-3 loss at the hands of the Lady Wave, owners of a 5-0 MVL mark and 9-1 record overall. “A great win and day for Lady Wave Softball,” said Greenville coach, Jerrod Newland. “Solid effort and awesome crowd and atmosphere at Lady Wave Stadium.” The Lady Aviators took advantage of two singles and an error to take a 1-0 lead after a half-inning of play bringing the Lady Wave to the plate. In the bottom of the first, Greenville used a Nyesha Wright leadoff single, a two-out Lady Aviators error and a Kenna Jenkinson run scoring single to left to send the game to inning No. 2 tied at 1-1.

inning. Greenville pushed 3-runs across in the bottom of the fourth using a oneout Kierah Beavins double to right, a walk to Zimmer and a 2-RBI triple to right off the bat of Wright followed by an Alaina Baughn single to plate the third run of the inning a give the Lady Wave a 4-2 lead. The Lady Wave tacked on two runs in the bottom of the fifth beginning with Savannah Leach reaching by way of an error on a hard grounder to short, a two-out run-scoring double to center off the bat Zimmer and a RBI Wright double to left for a 6-2 Greenville advantage.

Lawn watering and fertilizing techniques Staff report
DARKE COUNTY — A lush, green lawn is a sight to behold. Many variables are involved in growing and maintaining grass, and water and fertilizer are among the most important components. Knowing how much water and fertilizer to apply and when to apply it can make a big difference in the appearance and health of a lawn. That’s because a wellfed and watered lawn will develop a better root system, which makes the lawn less vulnerable to stressors like drought, mowing, foot traffic, and heat, according to the Scotts Company. Fertilize There is no magic formula governing when to
fertilize a lawn. The type of grass and how wellestablished a lawn is must be considered. Experts suggest having the soil tested to determine its pH levels and if any nutrients are lacking. A fertilizing schedule can then be developed after testing. Keep in mind that overfeeding a lawn will not make it grow any better and actually can damage the turf. Several small applications of fertilizer during the lawn’s most active growing period may be helpful, advises the home improvement resource “Tools Around the House.” An annual application (late spring for warm-season grass or fall for cool-season grass) may be all that’s needed.
Certain fertilizers need to be applied and watered in. Others may be combined with weed-control products and must be set on top of damp grass. Read packaging to determine the right application. Water The right watering schedule and techniques can help a lawn thrive. Scotts says adjusting for climate and nature can help grass to grow strongly. A lawn that has a grayish cast or appears dull green is telling an owner that it needs water. Another test is to step on the lawn. If footprints disappear quickly, the grass blades have enough moisture to spring back. Water the lawn in the
morning before 10 a.m. when it’s cooler and the winds tend to be calm so that the water can soak in. For those who must water at night, do so in early evening so that the water can dry before nightfall and will not contribute to disease. Scotts says to water an established lawn until the top 6-to-8 inches of soil is wet. Most lawns need one to 1.5 inches of water per week from rain or a hose to soak the soil that deeply. Newly established lawns may require more water to keep the soil moist but not soggy.

Helpful tips for hiring yard help By Miami Valley Better Business Buereau
DARKE COUNTY — What is the first thing people see when they come to your house? Your landscaping and lawn make the first impression. Not to mention, maintaining your lawn and landscape is essential to the health and growth of your landscape investment. Landscaping and lawn maintenance can be a lot to do by yourself. Many find it a big help to hire a landscaper or lawn service.
Here are tips from the Better Business Bureau to find the right service: · Know what you want done and the budget before you start getting estimates. · Ask family and friends with yards you admire for recommendations. · Ask for inspections and estimates from at least three companies. Companies giving you a quote without even looking at your project can’t be sure what you might need exactly. · Don’t sign up for
services on the spot. If a door-to-door representative comes, get a business card and call the business directly. · Understand some landscapers may charge to discuss your project to protect themselves against clients who want to get ideas and implement them themselves. If you contract with the business, they will often credit you back the initial fee. · Ask for references. If possible, visit the finished projects and ask references about their experience
with the company. · Look at websites and online reviews to learn about customers’ experiences with companies. · Get specifics on prices and be clear on what services are included. · Check if the service is properly bonded, licensed and insured. Make sure any subcontractors are as well. · Ask if the service belongs to a professional organization. · Make sure everything is in writing and read contracts. The contract
should include the project description, materials to be used, start and end dates, payment plans, cancellation policies and guarantees. Also, know the duration of the contract because some lawn care contracts are open-ended, which means they renew automatically unless otherwise stated. · Ask questions. Do you need to be home? Is there anything you need to move before work begins? Do you need to protect your family and pets from pesticides?
· Pay by check or credit card and get receipts for any money paid. Make sure the receipt lists what you paid for with the payment. · Get detailed instructions for taking care of the project yourself.

5 outdoor projects that add value Staff report
DARKE COUNTY — Exterior renovations can enhance the appearance of a property and make it more enjoyable for homeowners. Certain renovations have the potential to add value to a home, while others may do the opposite. Learning which one have the largest return on investment can help homeowners select features that will have the most positive impact. Curb appeal goes a long way toward attracting potential buyers. According to the National Association of Realtors, first impressions of a property have a strong influence on buyers. Landscaping and external features can do much to influence such impressions. — Lawn care program: Investing in a lawn care program that consists of fertilizer and weed control application and can be transferred over to a subsequent home owner is an attractive feature. NAR says such a care program can recover $1,000 in value of the $330 average cost, or a 303 percent return on investment. — Low-maintenance lifestyle: When choosing materials for projects, those that offer lowmaintenance benefits can be preferential. These include low-maintenance patio materials, composite decking, vinyl fencing,

and inorganic mulched beds. — Fire pit: A fire pit can be used for much of the year. In the spring and summer, the fire pit is a great place to congregate to roast marshmallows or sip wine and gaze into the fire. In the fall, the fire
pit can make for a cozy retreat. A fire pit that has a gas burner is low-maintenance, and the National Association of Landscape Professionals says that most can recoup about $4,000 of their $6,000 average price tag. — Softscaping:
Hardscaping refers to structures like outdoor kitchens or decks. Softscaping involves the living elements of the landscape. Hiring a landscape designer to install trees, shrubs, natural edging, and rock elements can do wonders toward improving the look
and value of a home. — Pool or water feature: In certain markets, particularly hot climates, a pool or another water feature is a must-have. However, in other areas where outdoor time is limited, a pool or water feature can actually lower the value of a home.

Poultry Days set for June 11-13 Staff report
VERSAILLES — While several local festivals have been canceled, the Poultry Days Board remains optimistic about this year’s festival and is planning a full festival including rides, parades and a social tent. Festival leaders are communicating with the Darke County Health Dept. and developing a safety plan. Poultry Days has received permission from the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) to close the highway and from the school to use the grounds. All bands have been booked and the contract with the ride company is signed. To help with planning, we are sharing the board decision to hold the festival on June 11 through 13 and not to reschedule. In the event restrictions are placed on the festival, we will adjust as needed but will not reschedule. The board will continue to watch health guidance closely. Bulk chicken sales are brisk with over 225 coolers of World Famous chicken already sold. Applications are being accepted for vendors and Little Miss Poultry Days contestants. We expect open registration for the Miss Chick pageant and Grand Parade within the next week. Information on these activities, chicken sales and more are available at VersaillesPoultryDays.com. Event signage has been
purchased and our application for a liquor license has been signed by village officials and submitted to the state of Ohio. Poultry Days is happy to release our 2021 theme art. The 2021 festival theme is “A Village of Champions, Honoring Those Who Make Us Great!” This theme is inspired by the many everyday “champions” who make up our community… first responders, healthcare workers, laborers and business owners, to name a few. Our area has farmers to feed us, teachers to educate the young, and military to protect our families. What would our village be without utility workers, postal employees, coaches and religious leaders? Look around and see our talented performing artists, musicians, athletes, and FFA members who contribute to our community’s success. Together, we all do our part to make Versailles great and it is time to celebrate our champions! Who would you consider a champion? The theme artwork was created by the 1984 Creative Group which is a full service creative agency specializing in apparel, ecommerce and marketing materials. Founded by Emily and Ben (Versailles graduate) Bey with a goal of providing high quality design and products. 1984 Creative is located in Tipp City, Ohio. We encourage partici-
pation from a wide variety of champions in the Grand Parade. So, think of your everyday champions and their accomplishments and let’s honor them! As usual, floats of all kinds are welcome to participate in the parade. The Poultry Days Board is counting on you to make the parade fun and exciting with the help of your creativity. Parade registration will open in the next week at VersaillesPoultryDays.com. Email PoultryDaysChairman@gmail.com with questions as you prepare for the parade. Festival Chairman, Brent Pepple, has been on the Poultry Days Board of Directors for eight years. Brent is employed at Midmark as a Senior Engineering Manager. He is a 2006 graduate of Versailles High School, earning his Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering from The Ohio State University and Master’s Degree in Business Administration from Wright State University. Brent resides in Versailles with his wife Emily (Frey), and sons Tate and Callen. Emily also served on the Poultry Days Committee for three years. The Pepples are excited for a safe and enjoyable festival for all! As one of Ohio’s oldest festivals, this event celebrates the area’s poultryproducing history. The Village of Versailles welcomes everyone to visit and enjoy the festival.

I didn’t think I needed to since I see him a lot, especially on Friday mornings at the Double M Diner, along with Dale Musser. We talk a lot about sports and the world in general. Gaylen is a true local sports guy! He takes thousands of pictures a year just highlighting local athletes in almost every sport! I do not know how many hours he puts in, but it must be tremendous for all the pictures he puts on social media and in the paper. Gaylen really loves talking to the officials, too. I have heard him say that is one of his favorite things, and is on a first name basis with most of them. He has written several articles about officials and officiating. His interest is totally local, really loves the kids (that is why he tries to get a picture of each one on the team in action, so mom and dad can be proud!) and has great rapport with all the coaches in the area. Gaylen, like me is getting up in years, but his energy for his work is truly inspiring. He is one of the few people I know who truly deep-down loves working with young people and those involved in sports. It is his passion. Gaylen is a true friend and I enjoy his enthusiasm and company. So, there you have it, the people who cover us for all of you. They are good men, work hard, and do the best they can to keep you informed about your community. We are lucky that they are here to do this job. It isn’t easy. They make what we do seem simple and relevant to your everyday lives. I respect them, and am proud to call them all my friends! That is the way I see it, from the sidelines. Contributing columnist Mike Stegall a 27 year former OHSAA high school football official and current Darke County Commissioner

NEW MADISON — Tri-Village Schools are hosting a drug prevention awareness week April 5 through 9 sponsored by the student-led group “We are the Majority.” Throughout the week, students will be participating in a number of different activities to promote the dangers of drug, tobacco, and alcohol use among their peers. “We are the Majority,” contracted through Darke Co. Recovery & Wellness, has student members in a number of schools throughout the county. All of the students work to prevent drug, tobacco, and alcohol
use among their peers. Kelly Harrison, Student Success Liaison with Recovery & Wellness and the groups adult guidance, stated she is incredibly proud of the work the students are doing, and hopes to see the program expand further. A group of involved students sat down with The Daily Advocate to discuss what the program means to them, and how they’re working to spread the message. When asked why they got involved, all confirmed that they wish to help their friends, be role models to younger kids, and learn about how to prevent drug use in general. Caleb Derksen, a sophomore at Tri-Village, said he’s been
involved with the program for about five years, and wants to continue making a difference in his community. “I got involved through sports, and hearing about people doing drugs and I really didn’t think it was a good decision so I wanted to make an effort to prevent drug use,” said Derksen. Other members said they enjoy the camaraderie and fun events the group supports. Above all, the students agreed that teaching younger students how to make good decisions is the most rewarding aspect. “I’ve been involved for almost See WEEK | 3B
DCHS under new leadership Staff report
GREENVILLE —Longtime Darke County Humane Society leader, Judith Francis, has stepped down from the Darke County Humane Society board after 20 years of service. Francis made the difficult decision due to ongoing health issues. Through her volunteer efforts over the past 20 years, Francis helped grow the DCHS into a solid, sustainable organization. Francis praised the many volunteers over the years as deserving the “real credit” for the many positive changes at the DCHS. The current DCHS board thanked Francis for her extraordinary service, and hopes she will take a welldeserved break. “Judy is one-of-a-kind. She is one of the strongest women I have ever known and she has my utmost respect,” said Ruth McDaniel, who most recently served as the DCHS vice president, and is the current DCHS secretary.

A guitar-playing cardinal rocks the blue front cover as a tribute to Everhart’s son, Donny, also known as “Mr. Cardinal,” an aspiring and gifted rock musician who passed away unexpectedly from a car accident in 2005. “Donny was an original, writing his own music and lyrics,” said Everhart. “He was a part of many bands over the years…DDT, Buried Alive, Muskhounds, Junk Peddlers, but ‘Mr. Cardinal’ was my favorite.” Throughout its 52 pages, Poetry in Motion evokes

many emotional “highs and lows,” as Everhart whimsically remembers the past folly of youth, meeting his wife, Becky — the love of his life for 53 years, raising a family, experiencing the loss of a beloved child, questioning and believing in God, and growing old with a hint of disbelief and healthy dose of humor. “I started buying records in 1954 when I was 10 years old, and then started playing records and ‘DJ-ing’ at 13… My first ‘gig’ was playing a dance — all 45s then — at the New Madison American Legion,” recalled Everhart, adding, “I used to drive there in a ’41 Oldsmobile Coupe that belonged to my Grandpa, ‘Pres’ (Preston) Onkst.”

Throughout the book, Everhart weaves the lyrics of popular classic rock tunes to his own life experiences, such as “come on, baby, light my fire…” (p.19), and “give me a ticket for an airplane…” (p. 40), giving a nod to the profound musical encounters that he had while travelling across the country, especially seeing the Doors (among other well-known artists) perform live, and meeting Jim Morrison personally at the Monterey County Fairgrounds, while stationed at Ford Ord as part of the U.S. Army’s 6th Infantry Division in 1966. “I was a rock fan… period!” said Everhart, recalling the experience. “So many great groups had

performed there, so many great tunes. The Doors put on such a stage show…it was something else! The Doors were a loud band before loud bands became popular…Way ahead of themselves, ahead of their time.” One particular poem in the book, which imagines Elvis Presley and Jim Morrison leading angelic choirs, speaks to Everhart’s love of music and his unwavering belief that those who have passed on will continue to express their love of life in song:

Department of Rehabilitation’s and Corrections Jail Improvement Grant is to be used for new construction, or the replacement of outdated technologies or infrastructure. The board explained that the current jail was built in 1983 and has not been updated since. As compared to other local counties, Darke County’s jail capacity is trailing significantly behind. The jail currently has the ability to house slightly under 40 people, while the recommended size is between 75 and 100 people. Commissioner Matt Aultman explained that the jail improvement project is still in its earliest phase. The county has not yet applied for the grant, and still needs time to plan out improvements and submit a detailed proposal to the state. Upon submission, the state will calculate expenses and hopefully award grant money. Commissioner Larry Holmes thanked the jail staff for their continued dedication to the county and for the great work they do. All commissioners agreed and said this is a project they are energized to begin detailing. More information will be available in the future. The Darke County Board of Commissioners meets every Monday and Wednesday at the county administrative offices located at 520 S. Broadway in Greenville. To contact them, call 937547-7370.

According to DCCA Executive Director Andrea Jordan, the organization is committed to enriching lives through the arts even while audiences cannot gather together to partake of live performances due to the pandemic. “Virginia Rep on Tour has always produced outstanding productions that entertain and uplift; when they announced their intention to continue fulfilling their mission by sharing their work virtually, we immediately took advantage of the opportunity,” Ms. Jordan continued. “DCCA is offering these outstanding shows at no charge as a

only hair loss solution that revives dead hair follicles. men and women regrow a thick, full head of hair, even after years of balding. Now, with news of this breakthrough spreading facturers are struggling to keep up with overwhelming demand. That’s because, unlike other methods, it is prescription-free, drug-free, and has no side effects. And while hair transplants can cost $4,000 or more, this new approach costs pennies on the dollar and doesn’t involve going to the Instead, it leverages cutting-edge technology to embarrassing bald spots, and renourish thinning hair — with results you can see and feel in 30 days or less. As Jeanne F. from San Diego, CA reports: “When my husband began to use this product, all he had on top of his head was fuzz. His hair began to grow after 30 days and now it is about 2 to 3 inches long!”
Surprising Truth About Hair Loss It is commonly believed that hair loss is hereditary. Unfortunately, most people think there is nothing they can do to stop it. However, while many doctors will tell you that thinning hair, a receding hairline, and bald spots are due to your genetics, this is not the whole story. “While genetics play a role, it’s not the main reason you lose hair,” says Dr. Al Sears, the nation’s top anti-aging doctor. “And surprisingly it’s not just your age, thyroid, hormones, ciency, either.” search reveals that hair loss is primarily caused by the stem cells in your hair follicles dying. “This discovery is a true breakthrough because by reviving these stem cells on your scalp, you can stop hair loss dead in its tracks and trigger new hair growth, even in areas that have been thinning for years,” explains Dr. Sears. Now, at his world-famous clinic, the Sears Institute for Anti-Aging Medicine in Palm Beach, Florida, Dr. Sears and his team have used this game-changing discovery to develop a brand-new hair restoration formula that is taking the country by storm. Sold under the name Re-Nourish the shelves with men and women of all ages raving about the results it delivers.

And Susan D. from Fort Pierce, Florida reports, “My hair was thinning. So, I began to use Re-Nourish every day on the front part of my scalp. Now I have thicker hair.” Dr. Al Sears, M.D., is America’s leading anti-aging expert. He’s authored more than 500 scientific papers, and his discoveries have appeared on more than 50 media outlets including, ABC News, CNN, ESPN, Discovery Channel, National Geographic, Lifetime, and many more.
Regrows Hair In Just 30 Days Scientists now know that stem cells are the lifeblood of your hair follicles. Research from the University of California shows they’re the reason you’re able to grow hair. However, these stem cells aren’t always active. In fact, studies reveal they’re only active during certain phases of the hair growth cycle. “Your hair grows in three phases,” explains Dr. Sears. “First, you have the anagen phase, the hair growing phase. Then the catagen phase, when hair gets ready telogen phase, where your hair is pushed from the follicle and falls out.” As you get older it becomes harder for your hair follicles to complete this three-phase cycle. The results? Your hairs get stuck in the telogen phase. This is when they start falling out and stop regrowing, no matter what you try. This process doesn’t happen overnight, says Dr. Sears. out, becoming brittle, thin, and harder to style. Then, your pillow and down the drain. Finally, you’re left with bald spots that age you prematurely.” Fortunately, Re-Nourish puts a stop to this. It revives the dead stem cells in your hair follicles and reactivates your hair’s three-phase cycle, triggering new growth in as little as 30 days — even in areas that’ve been balding for years.

can revive dead stem cells and improve the appearance of thicker, fuller hair. For example, the key nutrient of Re-Nourish was tested on a group of severely balding women. After 6 months, nearly 70% of the women saw hair growth. Their hair was noticeably fuller, thicker, and healthier looking. Most exciting of all, they grew new hair on parts of their scalp that had been bald for years. In another study, Italian researchers gathered a group of both men and women with thinning hair and applied the core ingredient of Re-Nourish. After 12 weeks, they reported a staggering 74% increase in hair growth. “It’s really mind-boggling that my hair started growing back,” says Zan R., another Re-Nourish customer. With results like this, it’s no surprise that demand for Re-Nourish is soaring. Thousands of men and women are scrambling to get their hands on the limited-supply available. Re-Nourish is not currently available in any store at any price. But we’ve secured a small batch for our readers.

or older and still making mortgage payments.
More than 1 million seniors have taken advantage of this “retirement secret.”
It’s a well-known fact that for many older Americans, the home is their single biggest asset, often accounting for more than 45% of their total net worth. And with interest rates near all-time lows while home values are still high, this combination creates the perfect dynamic for getting the most out of your built-up equity. But, many aren’t taking advantage of this unprecedented period. According to new statistics from the mortgage industry, senior homeowners in the U.S. are now sitting on more than 7.7 trillion dollars* of unused home equity. Not only are people living longer than ever before, but there is also greater uncertainty in the ecomony. With home prices back up again, ignoring this “hidden wealth” may prove to be short sighted when looking for the best long-term outcome. All things considered, it’s not surprising that more than a million homeowners have already used a government-insured Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM) loan to
For example, a lot of people mistakenly believe the home must be paid off in full in order to qualify for a HECM loan, which is not the case. In fact, one key advantage of a HECM is that the proceeds will first be used to pay off any existing liens on the property, which frees up cash flow, a huge blessing for seniors living on a fixed income. Unfortunately, many senior homeowners who might be better off with a HECM loan don’t even bother to get more information because of rumors they’ve heard. In fact, a recent survey by American Advisors Group (AAG), the nation’s number one HECM lender, found that over 98% of their clients are satisfied with their loans. While these special loans are not for everyone, they can be a real lifesaver for senior homeowners especially in times like these. The cash from a HECM loan can be used for almost any purpose. Other common uses include making home improvements, paying off medical bills or helping other family members. Some people simply need the extra cash for everyday expenses while others are

It’s a fact: no monthly mortgage payments are required with a government-insured HECM loan; however the borrowers are still responsible for paying for the maintenance of their home, property taxes, homeowner’s insurance and, if required, their HOA fees. Today, HECM loans are simply an effective way for homeowners 62 and older to get the extra cash they need to enjoy retirement. Although today’s HECM loans have been improved to provide even greater financial protection for homeowners, there are still many misconceptions.

*Housing Wealth for Homeowners - 62+ Reaches $7.7 Trillion in Q1 2020: NRMLA/RiskSpan Reverse Mortgage Market Index (RMMI) Q1 2000 - Q1 2020 Reverse mortgage loan terms include occupying the home as your primary residence, maintaining the home, paying property taxes and homeowners insurance. Although these costs may be substantial, AAG does not establish an escrow account for these payments. However, a set-aside account can be set up for taxes and insurance, and in some cases may be required. Not all interest on a reverse mortgage is taxdeductible and to the extent that it is, such deduction is not available until the loan is partially or fully repaid.

AAG charges an origination fee, mortgage insurance premium (where required by HUD), closing costs and servicing fees, rolled into the balance of the loan. AAG charges interest on the balance, which grows over time. When the last borrower or eligible non-borrowing spouse dies, sells the home, permanently moves out, or fails to comply with the loan terms, the loan becomes due and payable (and the property may become subject to foreclosure). When this happens, some or all of the equity in the property no longer belongs to the borrowers, who may need to sell the home or otherwise repay the loan balance.

Babylift From page 10B
graduating from Carroll College in Montana, Chris feels comfortable in this predominantly Anglo part of the country, “Cowboy Country,” as he refers to it. The Twinkie tag comes from his feelings about himself as, “yellow on the outside and white inside.” He indicates that he is the last person you’d want to teach racial profiling, diversity training, because he fits in, “has never had a problem with racism.” As I talk with him, I understand why. He has a delightful personality, is totally committed to his work in law enforcement, and has spent the past 18 years in working with Special Olympics. Of criminals and his training at the Montana Law Enforcement Academy in addition to his university studies, Chris says, “Criminals never age. They just keep being replaced with new ones.” And he is prepared for them as he works out four days a week to maintain his weight, striving initially to gain needed bulk and then to maintain weight, cardio fitness, and endurance to address the work he does and the people he might encounter. He reports, rather emphatically, “I am not a gym rat.” Further, he reports that his work in law enforcement has “evolved with age.” He has worked in Montana as a highway patrolman and a university

police officer. “I feel I am making a difference in my work, and I can be treated poorly by 20 people, and when that one person shows appreciation, I feel a deep satisfaction.” Of his work in Special Olympics, Chris says, “I was an assistant for a time until I was finally the only one who knew how to do it. These kids have delays in cognitive skills, but when they recognize me in a group, that makes an impression, leaves me with a good feeling. The most challenging part is staying on my feet, keeping up with them.” Chris is not married and says that after about eight
months, he has difficulty maintaining romantic relationships. This might be connected to the three foster placements he was in after the crash before he was officially placed with Carol and Len. And within a minute after mentioning a failure to form attachments, he is telling me about his anticipation of April first and the tricks he will play at work and his Christmas shopping. He begins shopping in January and continues throughout the year, always seeking the perfect presents for those he supervises and the persons with whom he works at the court house. After talking with Carol,
Colgan has worked with Special Olympics participants for 18 years.
I’ve decided that Chris’ walking away from romantic relationships might have something to do with his lack of housekeeping skills which are in direct contrast to his meticulous work performance. Carol reports that when Len and she brought Chris at 20 months old into their home to join their biological children, Theresa and John, the whole family was pleased and for a time in middle school in Great Falls, there was a second Asian student with whom he had a sound connection. Chris indicates that DNA tests have shown that he is “Lahu, who are indigenous to Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, and Thailand.” Carol says, “Chris never
saw himself as different.” Although Chris does not remember any bullying, Carol told me a story that still has me smiling: “Chris was in second grade, and he came home from school one day and said, ‘People are picking on me.’ “My advice was, ‘Pick the biggest one and smack him right in the mouth.’ “When Chris came home from school the next day, he said, ’I knocked Jeremy down and made him cry.’ “I said, ‘Why? Jeremy is your best friend.’ His response was, ‘He was the biggest one in my class.’ And I answered, ‘Oh, my god, Chris, you didn’t get the whole story.’”
As I conclude this column, I see a beautiful, talented American man with two loving parents who adopted him “because we knew there were children out there in need.” And I know this family is an important part of what the framers of the U.S. Constitution could have only imagined when they indicated that they sought “a more perfect union.” Vivian B. Blevins.
