Harrison County Home and Public Health officials want the facts made clear for Child Passenger Safety Week, Sept. 19-25.

Six out of 10 children killed in crashes are not wearing seat belts or not secured in safety seats. Motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death for children ages 4-14.

Unrestrained children are three times more likely to be injured in a crash. Seven in 10 people will be in a traffic crash in the next five years. Every eight minutes a crash occurs in Iowa. Three out of four traffic crashes occur within 25 miles from home. Safety seats reduce fatal injury by 71 percent for infants and by 54 percent for toddlers 1-6 years old. Ninety percent of child safety seats are installed incorrectly.

These are just a few of the statistics Harrison County Home and Public Health certified safety seat inspectors Sherri Webb, Jodi Roden and

National Library Card Sign-Up Month

Tabitha Melby face. But they’re determined to help Harrison County residents avoid becoming just a statistic.

“We check seats by appointment,” Melby said. “To get a seat checked, the parent/guardian has to bring their vehicle, the child and their current car seat.”

The inspectors prefer to have the vehicle and car seat manuals if available and will need to know the height/length and weight of the child, which can be done on the premises if the information is not available. Then the check may begin.

“We start by checking the car seat, with and without the child in it, inside the vehicle to see if it is in the vehicle correctly and see if the child fits correctly in the seat,” Melby said.

“Then we take out the seat and inspect it – checking dates, recall lists, condition of the seat and more.”

After the check is complete, parents or guardians are advised on what, if any, changes See CAR SEAT Page 6

It’s not just another card in your wallet. Or purse. Or pocket. It’s more of a key to infinite knowledge, entertainment and access to the entire world.

September has been labeled “National Library Card Sign-Up Month” by the American Library Association and the Woodbine Public Library is actively encourage Woodbine residents to sign-up for their card.

“With their library cards, Woodbine residents can check out books, audio books, magazines, cake pans, puzzles, movies and more,” Woodbine Public Library Librarian Rita Bantam said. “We have a lot to offer residents: a large selection of fiction and nonfiction books, large print books and audio See LIBRARY Page 6

SWIHMB taking fundraising efforts to Applefest “Most of the vendors won’t have time or won’t want to leave to go get food somewhere. So we’re going to provide them with an easily accessible dinner.” ~Emma Allen NIKKI DAVIS Editor The Southwest Iowa Honor Marching Band won the Governor’s Cup during the Iowa State Fair. And that was just a warm up for their

main event: a trip to Phoenix, Ariz. to march in the Fiesta Bowl Parade on Dec. 31. But the trip isn’t cheap, and the three Woodbine band students, Emma Allen, Jessica Allen and Heather Park, making

the trip this year are getting creative with their fundraising.

Emma Allen, the veteran SWIHMB member, isn’t new to the fundraising aspect, and has shared her ideas with her sister and

Heather.

“The last time I went, my major fundraisers were selling candles and putting on a few bake sales,” Emma said.

This year, the trio expanded the idea, and threw frozen foods into the mix. So far, the Allens have raised just enough for one of them to go, and Heather is only a few hundred dollars away from her goal.

They need $1,500 each, though.

Enter another new idea.

“Well, the Applefest Committee actually came to us and said, ‘We know you’re trying to raise money to go to Phoenix, so would you be interested in providing a meal for the vendors that come into Woodbine to set up for See SWIHMB Page 6

t’s a unique opportunity. The facilitators are nationally-known and highly-regarded. The workshop is FREE, thanks to grant funding.

We’ve been chosen, due to our status as a GREEN Pilot Community and a Main Street Community, to participate (a great perk!). The workshop is FREE. The chance to be “expert witnesses” and answer questions about your hometown is a very good thing to volunteer for. The workshop is FREE. As part of the Iowa Green Streets Pilot Project, Woodbine is poised to showcase our community, but a cohesive marketing and branding plan is necessary. Oh yeah … and the workshop is FREE! Woodbine has a lot going on right now.

Downtown revitalization is a reality. But sometimes it is hard to keep all the projects, and grants, and meetings, and GREEN work, and new and rehab construction, and community events all straight.

Here’s an opportunity to develop and refine a clear message about “who we are” and improve the way we “tell our story”. . .from city officials and downtown business owners to school staff and community residents.

Our Town. . .Our Story. . .Our Opportunity to discover common threads and (with the help of the workshop “professionals”) weave them together into an engaging story featuring the community of Woodbine in the starring role!

We need your memories and insight. Plan to attend the Workshop Thursday, September 16 at the Senior Center, 411 Walker, 5:30 – 7 p.m.

Questions: Call the Main Street Office at 647-3434.

Applefest! Applefest! Applefest!

A

pplefest. Applefest. Applefest. Something seems to be weighing on my mind an awful lot lately.

It could be because everywhere I turn in the office, I see an Applefest flyer. Or it could be the pictures I’ve scanned into the system from years past. Or … just maybe … it’s the stories I’ve written. One after the other.

Sometimes I feel like I just spin my wheels. I’m not going to lie, or even sugar coat things – I pride myself and this paper on our annual Applefest section. Every year I do all I can to make sure it’s the best special section that goes in our paper. (Not that I don’t put effort into the others – I’m just particular biased towards this one.)

I love watching the event come together – and watching the people come together to make it happen.

The event has morphed from year to year and continues to do so. Which is probably a good thing, since when things stop changing, they will become void. If not void, it will be worse – boring.

Each year, something new comes. There used to be Applefest royalty. I wonder what happened to that?

There used to be teepees on a corner somewhere. I remember them. There used to be motorcycles in the car show, if I remember right, too. There used to be half the number of attendees.

I can just look back over my six years working here and see all the different things. The one I think I miss most, is the baby contest! It was so fun to see all the babies at the school, clad in their apple get-ups! Not to mention, it made for some adorable pictures!

Oh … and let’s not forget the hot air balloons. One of the most memorable days of my life.

There was a black powder shoot, too … but now, I suppose, that was replaced by the archery competition, which is just as neat and brings a completely different aspect to the Applefest.

And what about all the different, historical speakers the Woodbine Genealogical Society brings each year.

NIK’S KNACKS NIKKI DAVIS EDITOR nikki.davis@woodbinetwiner.com

Class in Merry Brook is always entertaining. They’ve had some great speakers over the years. If you’ve never gone, you really should!

Then we added cloggers last year. If you missed that, you shouldn’t this year.

And I can’t tell you how THRILLED I am about two, new events this year – a pet fashion show (Harrison County Humane Society) and the Civil War Living History (Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War).

The pet fashion show … um … yeah. I don’t need to say anything other than, “ADORABLE.” Again, one of those events where I know I have to work, but wish I didn’t have to because I have a really cute dachshund that has some pretty cute Halloween costumes.

And I have this thing with the Civil War – actually my sister does. (She is probably not going to be happy I’m sharing this in the paper …) She has had dreams about the Civil War since we were little. And they’re repetitive. And it’s during the Civil War. When I told her about the Living History, she was excited and apprehensive. But one way or another – I can not WAIT for their presentation. Just be forewarned – I hear they’re going to be shooting off cannons and stuff.

That might draw some attention.

So start counting down, Woodbine … only a few days left until the town is taken over … by Applefest goers, I mean. Not confederate fighters.

Fall yard and garden clean up

L

ast week I wrote about the importance of sanitation in storing grain and keeping it in good condition. This week I turn the focus on lawns and gardens. As summer turns over to fall, there are a number of issues to remember to help you in management around the yard. Try to think a bit like the organisms you are dealing with (yes, seek out your inner cherry tree). Plants we want like bluegrass or cherry trees or tomatoes do have things in common with pests – the weeds and insects and diseases – that we fight.

They all have to live in the environment we provide for them, and they all have to find a way to get through our winters. So try to understand the good guy’s needs and favor those, and also understand the things that favor the bad (pest) guys, and try to disrupt those.

Here are three examples: Finish seeding any bare spots in the lawn immediately. Now is the time to

start management to reduce and even eliminate annual weeds from flourishing in your lawn. These include crabgrass, the foxtails, stinkgrass and even lambsquarters. These annual plants must start from seed each spring, and for that they need open spots. So if you remove the open spots, they cannot get established. A little dose of nitrogen fertilizer now will be available to the plants for their fall, coolseason growth period.

Don’t wait too long, but about one to two pounds of nitrogen (N) per 1,000 square feet should do wonders. Read the fertilizer analysis; the first number is the pounds of N in 100 pounds of fertilizer material. For instance, a 10-pound bag of fertilizer with a 15-10-5 guaranteed analysis contains 1.5 pounds of N. If we get the grass stand filled in in the fall, and stimulate the plants with a little nutrition, it really discourages the weeds.

For garden areas, and

EXTENSION OFFICE RICHARD POPE Harrison County Extension Program Coordinator ropope@iastate.edu particularly squash and other vining cucurbits (including zucchini), remove the vines from the garden area immediately after frost (within a couple of days). Squash vine borer larvae will bore through the dead stems and overwinter in the soil, ready to emerge when next year’s garden is just starting. Cut those larvae off at the pass by removing them after the frost but before they burrow into the soil, and you have cut into their life cycle While you are at it, the other garden crop residues can allow a number of insect and foliar diseases to overwinter as well, so fall cleanup can help considerably in your overall pest management strategy.

Remember newly

planted tree and other ornamental plants may be tenuously established, and will need to go through the winter. Try to reduce stresses by thorough mid to late fall watering. Even though we have had unusually high volumes of rain this summer, remember your plants may run a bit short, depending on the fall we will have. Mulching can also help. Avoid mulching materials that get waterlogged and pack tightly, for example shredded newspaper. Newspaper has its uses as mulch, but save it for other seasons, not winter.

For additional information, contact Rich Pope at the Harrison County Extension office at ropope@iastate.edu or 712-644-2105.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR DEAR EDITOR: As harvest season approaches, I would like to remind everyone who drives in rural areas to keep in mind that farm equipment will be traveling the roads. These large pieces of equipment, from tractors to combines to grain cards, etc., do not move as fast as a vehicle. Plus, most equipment is oversized

for the roadway.

Drivers, please keep in mind that “slow-moving” equipment may be just around the next corner. Please drive cautiously, be patient, and stay calm. Actions to keep in mind include slowing down as soon as you see a piece of farm equipment, watching for hand signals, being aware of the slow-mov-

ing vehicle emblem, watching for flashing amber lights, don’t speed past farm machinery, and don’t pull in front of a slow-moving vehicle and suddenly slow down.

The SMV emblem means that what it is attached to will not be going over 25 mph.

Farmers are very aware of the size of their

equipment and its speed and strive to be as safe as possible on the roadways. They, too, want a safe harvest season.

Every time you get in your vehicle, strive to practice the golden rule of safe driving which is to set a good driving example.

SINCERELY, LEONARD JOHNSON MISSOURI VALLEY

Home Improvement Tour Four homes in the Park/Glen Historic District of Council Bluffs will be featured from 2-6 p.m. Sept. 19, on the “Home Improvement Tour,” sponsored by the Fairmount Park Neighborhood Association. Do-ityourself homeowners and contractors will be available to answer any and all questions regarding home renovation.

Homes on the tour include: • 126 Park Ave.: This high-style, Queen Anne/Eastlake Victorian home was built in 1890 by H.H. Field.

Original details, such as sunbursts, wood appliqués, spindles, bay windows, tin ceilings and other vintage elements have been restored by the homeowner. The result is a glimpse of old fashioned Victorian living as we imagine it to have been.

• 134 Park Ave.: This Italianate brick Victorian was built in 1882 by Simon Eiseman. It contained four finished levels at the time of construction, and included two sleeping porches and a wrap-around front porch with 12-feet tall porch posts. It had been converted to apartments by 1950. It is presently undergoing a massive conversion to a single family home once again; the work is being done almost exclusively by the present homeown-

ers.

• 206 Park Ave.: This Queen Anne Victorian was probably built in 1900; its first known occupant was Swan Swanson. The present homeowner removed aluminum siding to expose the original lap siding, restored the wrap-around porch and added a garage and upper level addition.

Many interior vintage details have been restored or recreated.

• 199 Glen Ave.: This Four-Square style home was likely built in 1926. It features brick and stucco walls and exhibits a strong Prairie School influence. It was once owned by Edna Kline. The present homeowners have renovated the interior and made numerous repairs to the exterior. The end result is a beautiful, cleanly decorated family home.

Tickets to this one-of-a-kind experience are $10 per person or two for $15 and may be purchased at any of the above locations.

A free, guided walking tour will also take place during the afternoon, where you can hear little known stories of this historic neighborhood not found in history books. The Park/Glen Historic District is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Iowa’s employer unemployment insurance contribution rates increase Iowa Workforce Development announced the unemployment contribution rate for employers will be adjusted on Jan. 1, 2011 to keep the Unemployment Insurance Trust Fund at sufficient levels to adequately provide for unemployment benefits. Record unemployment claims over the last two and a half years coupled with a have triggered the adjustment.

Each year, Iowa law requires the department to use a required formula to establish which contribution table will be used to determine the rate paid by employers.

Unemployment contribution rates are based on wages, with the contribution portion for 2011

set at $24,700. Iowa has traditionally had some of the lowest employer rates in the country.

However, as Iowa has been besieged by unemployment claims and individuals are remaining on unemployment longer due to the recession, the potential liability to the Trust Fund has increased. Therefore, Iowa law dictates more money is needed to maintain the solvency of the Trust Fund. In calendar year 2011, the rate will move from Table 4 to Table 3.

“Iowa Workforce Development is committed to maintaining the solvency of the Trust Fund while minimizing the effects felt by Iowa employers,”

workers exceeded contributions paid by employers. Iowa had to borrow from the federal government to make up the difference.

Since that time, business and labor have worked with Iowa Workforce Development to ensure the Trust Fund remains solvent, avoiding the need to borrow money.

Unemployment insurance contributions provide for the benefits paid to workers who lose their job through no fault of their own. All unemployment contributions are deposited into the Trust Fund to pay future benefits.

The Trust Fund currently has a balance of $507 million; however 2010 is still expected to pay out

Iowa Workforce Development Director Elisabeth Buck said.

“The Department is continually working with Iowans receiving unemployment benefits to increase their skill sets and reduce barriers individuals may have for returning to work.”

During the current recession, the trust funds in 35 states have gone bankrupt causing massive borrowing from the federal government to cover benefits. As a result, all of the businesses in these states will pay significantly higher federal unemployment taxes for years to come.

In the early 1980s, the Trust Fund experienced a deficit of $166 million as payments to

the second largest amount of benefits in history. This does not include the extended benefits paid for by the federal government. In order to avoid depleting the Trust Fund and thus being forced to borrow from the federal government, Iowa law requires a rate increase.

Unemployment insurance contributions are based on two primary factors, whether the business is new and the number of layoffs a company had during the last five years. As a result, companies with seasonal workers and regular shutdowns pay a higher rate than companies with relatively few shutdowns or layoffs.

Child Passenger Safety Week National Library From CAR SEAT Page 1 can and should be made and are asked to reinstall the seat appropriately – with help from the certified inspectors if needed.

As an extra step, parents/guardians are given information about the next step they’ll need to make to keep the child safe, such as pertaining to airbags, how to handle unused seatbelts and more.

And consistency seems key, according to local HCHPH officials.

“A short trip to school or the store deserves as much attention to safety as does a trip out of town. Use consistency when it comes to car seats so your children know what to expect for every ride,” Melby said.

Knowledge may be a part of keeping things consistent. Many are unaware of the suggestions, as well as the rules and regulations of child passenger safety seats such as it is best to keep infants in rear-facing child safety seats as long as possible. According to law, at a minimum, infants need to be in rear-facing car seats until a minimum of 1 age and at least 20 pounds.

The American Academy of Pediatrics and many other organizations have now decided children are safer if they ride rearfacing for as long as the seat allows.

After children outgrow a rear-facing seat, they should ride in a forward-facing child safety seat in the back seat until they reach the upper weight and/or height limit of the seat.

Generally this is around age 4 and 40 pounds.

SWIHMB fundraising at Applefest From SWIHMB Page 1 Applefest on the Friday before,’” Emma explained. “And we said, ‘Cool.’”

The fundraiser seemed like a no-brainer to the three band students.

“Most of the vendors won’t have time or won’t want to leave to go get food somewhere,” Emma said. “So we’re going to provide them with an easily accessible dinner.”

The three plan on setting up shop in the Black and Gold concession booth in the commons

area of the Woodbine Community School. The meal will cost $5 and include sloppy Joes, chips, dessert bars and a drink.

Originally, the thought was to open the dinner to vendors, only, but that would potentially limit how much money they were able to raise.

“We’ll have to see how it goes this year and maybe other students coming after us will be able to expand on the idea,” Emma said.

The hope is to raise enough funds for

Emma, Woodbine High School junior clarinet player, Heather, a WHS senior clarinet player and Jessica, a WHS sophomore tenor sax player, to be able to load up on Dec. 29 for the warm weather of Phoenix.

“It’s just awesome,” Heather said. “I can’t wait to feel the heat in December. It will be beautiful.”

Jessica can’t wait to spend some time with friends she has met through the SWIHB and Emma is just excited to ride on an airplane and

travel.

If they don’t raise enough funds at the event, the trio is planning on a bake sale for sometime in October and/or November.

If interested in donating to the fundraising efforts, please contact Maureen Allen at 712250-0350 or send a check to 2149 Perry Trl., Woodbine, IA 51579; or Sherry Park at 712-6473228 or send a check to 3085 215th St., Woodbine, IA 51579.

Card Sign-Up Month

“Where else can you go to read, check out books, magazines, movies, audios and use the internet – for free?” ~Rita Bantam From LIBRARY Page 1 books, videos and DVD’s for the whole family.”

“We have youth magazines, cake pans, puzzles for kids and adults and a quiet place to read – a book, magazine or the newspaper,” Youth Library Wendy Doyel added.

Computers, complete with internet access, are also available on both sides of the library and open to the public.

“We also offer Wi-Fi,” Bantam said. “In case anyone wants or needs to read online in a quiet, comfortable setting.”

Aside from the plethora of materials offered by the library, there’s more to offer.

The Woodbine Public Library also plays host to a book club that meets from 6-7 p.m. the first Wednesday of each month in the library’s conference room. Pre-school story times run throughout the school year from October through April. A knitting club is offered during the winter months, beginning in October, and, opposite that, is a youth and an adult summer reading program around July. The library’s conference room is also available to the public for reservations – free of charge.

While a library card isn’t necessary to participate in those activities, Bantam and Doyel stressed the fact library cards are free and valuable to any holder due to the quantities of check-out material available.

“You can check out books, audio books and magazines for two weeks and movies for about two days,” Doyel said.

“Puzzles are available to check out for a month,” Bantam added.

Once you go through the initial steps to get the library card, it’s valid for life. And one of the best parts – you don’t even have to take it out of the library if you’re afraid of losing it.

“With our automated system, you don’t have to carry a card around with you anymore. You’re automatically put into our system when you sign up for a card – all we need is to look up your ‘card,’ is your name,” Doyel said.

Currently, there are 1,324 card holders at the Woodbine Public Library.

A good number, both librarians agree, but there are still a lot of residents who don’t take advantage of all that is offered.

“Where else can you go to read, check out books, magazines, movies, audios and use the internet – for free?” Bantam asked. “Other than the library, I can’t think of anywhere.”

“It’s true,” Doyel added. “You can find just about any form of entertainment at the library.

And it’s free.”

To learn more, contact Rita Bantam at the Woodbine Public Library and/or Wendy Doyel at the Woodbine Public Youth Library, both at 6472750, or online at http://www.woodbine.lib.ia.us.

Cox. The “Tiger Cards,” sold by the students raised a little over $5,000 to aid the struggling activity fund.

Vint added the financial outlook in his board report, noting the general fund was down this month, but would improve as the regular tax receipt money comes into the system in October.

Enrollment showed early signs of a very slight increase, with the official count being turned in on Oct. 1. Vint announced West Harrison had requested to discontinue their shared contract between Boyer Valley, Woodbine and West Harrison for technology coordinator Jeremy Gergen. They stated with their new computers, they would need Gergen on a fulltime basis. Vint suggested finding a new coordinator to share between Woodbine and Boyer Valley. The Annual Progress Report was reviewed, with Vint taking note that several goals did not quite get

accomplished. The reading goal will continue to be worked on, along with a greater emphasis on math. The science goal did get accomplished.

When Shaw questioned what the board needs to do to help the teachers and students improve, Vint replied, “Vote!” School improvements simply boil down to having the funds available as Vint once again stressed the importance of passing the PPEL levy on Sept.

14. He explained to the public once more the levy is not a new tax, but one that is already in place and needs to be renewed and continued in order for the school to be able to maintain the building and grounds, or to see technology or transportation improvements. If these items were to be funded from the general budget, the school would have to make deep cuts in other places.

For action items, the board moved to approve

the early retirement policy after a lengthy discussion took place and several questions about the policy addressed. The last item requiring board action was the $2,220,000 General Obligation School Refunding Bonds, Series 2010. The resolution was approved appointing paying agent; bond registrar and transfer agent; approving the paying agent, bond registrar and transfer agent agreement; and authorizing the execution of the same. The board then sought approval for the form of tax exemption certificate, continuing disclosure certificate, and the resolution authorizing the issuance of general obligation school refunding bonds, series 2010. Shaw proceeded to sign the bonds. The board made note of a possible conflict with the October meeting, so discussed moving the October meeting to Tues., Oct. 12.

The meeting adjourned at 8:08 p.m.

Community Local riders remember lost biker

Tom and Judy Erlewine, Stan and Gwen Wolkens and Don and Mary Lantz joined several members of Gold Wing Touring Association Chapter Z motorcycle riders on a weekend trip to Long Pine, Neb. Members from Iowa and South Dakota chapters also joined the group. The trip was made in memory of member Wendell Hakanson who planned the route, the stops, etc. but passed away in July. His wife, Peggy Hakanson, who rides her own bike, joined the group. The Long Pine community has earned the title “Beauty Spot of Nebraska� and Wendell wanted us to all share in this unique and hidden treasurer.

The group indulged in memories of Wendell, ride to Smith Falls, tubing on Long Pine Creek, barbeques and campfires.

Better Breakfast Month Local men arrested for attempted theft What happens when we don’t supply our brains with enough energy for the day? We tend to become irritable, lethargic and even develop headaches. The best solution, according to Nutrition and Health Program Specialist with ISU Extension Barb Fuller, to avoid these things, is to make sure our body is getting the calories and nutrients it needs to help us think clearly the whole day. The best place to start is breakfast.

So with school in season, now is the time to get into the routine of breakfast. As you know, breakfast literally means “to

break the fast.� When we wake up in the morning, it has been about eight hours or more since the last time we’ve eaten food. A healthy breakfast can improve our attention and concentration on our morning tasks. This is especially important for school age. Teachers often report children who don’t eat breakfast become restless and inattentive by late morning. Breakfast is also important because it provides about one fourth of our daily calories and nutrients.

A healthy breakfast can be as simple as a banana and peanut butter sandwich. Low-fat milk and

cereal, toasted cheese sandwich and orange juice, even leftover pizza will help you and your child make it through the morning. Including some protein, like milk or peanut butter to help breakfast last until your next meal. Remember schools all offer a school breakfast program at a reasonable cost, check at your school.

So remember as those school routines are starting to remember to include breakfast, but it is important for all of us. For more information, contact your county ISU Extension office or Barb Fuller at 641202-1843.

According to the Lyon County Iowa Sheriff department, Eric Robert Freihage, Logan, and Jonathan Charles Wensel, Pisgah, were arrested Sept. 3 for attempting to steal hogs northwest of Little rock, Iowa.

Due to the help of concerned citizens, the subjects were followed until their vehicle could be stopped by law enforcement.

According to the report, it was determined that Freihage and Wensel had the intent to steal hogs from a hog confinement and load them into the trailer they were pulling. During a search of the vehicle, law enforcement officials located many burglary tools and a small amount of marijuana.

Freihage and Wensel were arrested at the scene.

Freihage, the driver of the vehicle, was charged with two counts of failure to stop at stop signs, failure to display registration plates and failure to maintain insurance. He was also charged with possession of burglary tools, burglary third degree, driving while revoked and possession of a controlled substance. He is being held in the Lyon County jail on a $50,000 bond.

Wensel was charged with possession of burglary tools and burglary third degree. He is currently out on a $5,000 bond.

Freihage is a 2005 West Harrison graduate and Wensel a 2008 West Harrison graduate.

The investigation is on-going and involves numerous agencies.

Additional charges are pending.

Avoid Dangers of “Over-concentration” When you were in school, you had to concentrate on your studies. When you began your career, you had to concentrate on your work. In fact, in just about every endeavor in life, concentration is essential for success. However, as an investor, you may find that you actually don’t want to concentrate too much.

That’s not to say you shouldn’t concentrate on your investment decisions — you should. But if you concentrate too much money in one investment, or one type of investment, you could run into problems.

Suppose, for example, that your portfolio is almost entirely devoted to growth stocks.

During a good economy, growth stocks generally tend to do well, so if we’re enjoying a period of sustained growth, your portfolio might show some good returns. But if the economy slumps while you own only growth stocks, you could sustain losses that may take a long time from which to recover. On the other hand, if you over-concentrate on fixedincome investments, such as bonds, your principal value might increase when interest rates are falling (as interest rates and bond prices are inversely related), but when interest rates rise, your bond portfolio will likely lose principal value.

To help avoid the problems

of over-concentration, it's important to own a range of investments, which may include stocks, bonds, government securities and certificates of deposit (CDs). While this type of diversification cannot, by itself, guarantee a profit or protect against loss, it can help reduce the effects of volatility on your portfolio.

Of course, how you choose to allocate your assets will depend on a variety of factors, including the following: • Your goals — Your ultimate objectives should help govern your investment strategy. If you are planning to retire early and then start a new business, you may need to invest more aggressively than, say, your neighbor, who wants to work as long as possible and then stay close to home, pursuing inexpensive hobbies.

• Your risk tolerance — Just as we all have different personalities, we have different tolerances for investment risk. If you can assume greater risk in exchange for potentially higher returns, you may be a more aggressive investor. Conversely, if you’re willing to take lower returns as a trade-off for greater protection of your principal, you’re probably a more conservative investor. However, to achieve your goals, you may consider

moving outside your investment “comfort zone” from time to time.

• Your time horizon — Your stage of life will also affect your investment choices. If you are just starting your career, you can probably afford to invest more aggressively than if you are nearing retirement, at which time you may want to cut down on risks.

To build a diversified portfolio that reflects your goals, risk tolerance and time horizon, you may want to work with a professional financial advisor — someone who can assess your situation and recommend choices that are

appropriate for your needs.

By concentrating on a unified investment strategy — instead of over-concentrating on a specific type of investment — you can focus on where you want to go and what you need to do to get there.

The Woodbine Twiner

Sports Volleyball team off to a good season Safe Triangular Sept. 7 The Lady Tigers volleyball team travelled to Avoca Sept. 7 for a triangular against the AHST Vikings and Coon RapidsBayard Crusaders, ending the evening 1-and-1 The Lady Tigers fell to the Lady Crusaders, but not by much, losing the first game 25-21 and pushing the second game to extra points, losing 2725.

“It started out slow against Coon-Rapids, but we came alive too late,” head coach Rita Melby said. “I was not disappointed with the loss. We did many things right, but just didn’t talk as we needed to as a team and we did not hit and serve as well as we could.”

Justina Royer led in kills for the team, making four, with Taylor Barry following with two.

Tiffany Vasquez led in assists with three, Lauren Dubas adding two and Kaitlyn Pulscher, one.

Samijo Klaahsen, Vasquez, Barry and Shelby Vandemark delivered aces during the match. Barry delivered three blocks, Pulscher, two and Klaahsen one.

Vandemark tallied an impressive eight digs during the game. Royer added four, Pulscher, two and Vasquez and Dubas, one each.

After their loss to the Crusaders, the team ral-

lied for a win against the Vikings, taking an easy two games, 25-11 and 259.

Kills were delivered by Royer and Cydney Meeker with two each and Pulscher with one.

Two assists came from Vasquez and Klaahsen and Pulscher added one each. Barry served up four aces during the match, Vasquez and Klaahsen, two each and Royer, one. Aiding on defense was Meeker with five blocks, Royer with two and Klaahsen and Barry with one each. The team saw plenty of digs during the match: Vandemark, five; Klaahsen, three; Pulscher, three; and Royer, Vasquez, Barry and Dubas, one each.

I was happy how the girls improved, and we can only look forward and improve.”

West Monona Sept. 9 After a hard fought battle, the Lady Tigers defeated the West Monona Spartans, 3-2.

The team lost the first two to the Spartans, 25-16 and 25-17, but rallied back the last three games for the win, 25-15, 25-12 and 1614, to clinch the win.

“When we were down 0-2, the girls fought back with all they had,” Melby said. “Teamwork could not even describe how these girls won this game.

The fans came into play.

We did not have one outstanding player – we had an outstanding team.”

The team ran high in aces for the game, with Klaahsen, Pulscher and Royer delivering four each. Vandemark added two and Barry and Dubas, one each. Royer tallied nine kills during the game and Klaahsen added six on top of that. Vasquez and Dubas were there for the team with assists, seven and six, respectfully. Klaahsen and Pulscher each managed one block, the digs may have been what saved the team: Vandemark, 13; Pulscher, 12; Royer, seven; Barry, six; Klaahsen, Meeker, five; Vasquez, four; Brittney Nelson, three; and Dubas, two.

“Blocking was our weak spot, but Sami and Kaitlyn picked up a couple crucial blocks,” Melby said. “Cydney and Taylor kept West Monona in check, being in their faces at every bout at the net.

Our setters did an amazing job. Lauren and Tiffany played the games like they had been doing it for more years than a few weeks as varsity players.”

West Monona Tournament Sept. 11 Their win over West Monona was short lived, as the Spartans rallied for the win against the team Sept. 11 during the West Monona Tournament.

Despite the one disappointment, it was the Lady Tiger’s only loss on the day.

The team opened the day right, taking out neighbor and Harrison County rival, LoganMagnolia in three games, winning the first 21-17, losing the second, 21-13 and rallying for victory and racking up extra points in the final game, 19-17.

Leading the team in numbers included Royer with six kills, one ace, one block and six digs.

Klaahsen added four kills, two aces and three digs.

Dubas managed seven assists. Vandemark had 11 digs and one ace for the team.

The Tigers then took on the Whiting Warriors, pushing three games again, narrowly losing the first 21-19, winning the second 21-17 and making short work of the third, 15-9.

Team leaders included Royer with five kills, four aces, one block and seven digs. Klaahsen had four aces, three kills and two digs. Vandemark led in digs with nine and added four aces. Pulscher had six digs, three assists and one ace.

The Lady Tigers made short work of the Charter Oak-Ute Bobcats, taking an easy 25-16 and 25-20 win.

Klaahsen had a good game, with seven aces,

two kills, one assist and three digs. Royer led in kills with four and Royer and Vandemark led in digs with eight.

The Lady Tigers finally fell at the tourney, taking a third place finish, when they rematched with the West Monona Spartans.

The girls lost two, consecutive games, 25-20 and 25-16. Vandemark led in digs with seven, adding one ace. Royer aided the team with four digs, two aces and two kills.

Klaahsen added four digs, three kills and one ace and Pulscher added her own four digs and one ace. Vasquez led in assists with four, and added one kill and two digs. Dubas had the two remaining assists for the team.

Despite the loss, there were plenty of highlights during the tournament, including one, individual honor.

“Royer came away with the honor of AllTournament team, of which she was one of eight girls from the eight teams at the tournament,” Melby said.

Aside from the four teams the Tigers faced, OA-BCIG, Whiting, Boyer Valley and Remson Union all participated at the tourney.

The team played Boyer Valley Sept. 14 (results to follow in the Sept. 22 Twiner) and travels to Ida Grove for 9 a.m. play

Tigers, Kuhlman roll Whiting Sept. 3 JEFF POWERS For The Twiner The Tigers scored at will in the first half of Sept. 3rd’s non-district game against Whiting, scoring all their 58 points.

Of the first nine possessions, the Tigers scored on eight. Dominating was sophomore Kyle Kuhlman, rushing eight times for 154 yards and four touchdowns.

Kuhlman also had a 27-yard touchdown pass from Zach Archer for five touchdowns on the night. Archer and Sam Powers each had two touchdown runs of their own.

Whiting, on nine possessions, managed only two first downs against the Tiger defense in the first half.

Leading 58-0 starting the

second half, the Tigers played mostly freshmen and junior varsity players. With a continuous clock, the Tigers only had three possessions.

Whiting did score on all three of their possessions, making the final 58-20.

Defensive stars included leading tacklers Gavvon Shafer, Lucas Hedstrom and Powers with four tackles apiece. Mason Mentink added a fumble recovery while Powers had an interception. Along with two tackles for losses, Cory Caddell had a blocked punt.

Woodbine ends its non-district schedule with a 1-1 record. Woodbine starts its district schedule at home against a tough GliddenRalston team.

“Glidden looks very solid on film with lots of size and

good depth. Their team depth will be a challenge for us to compete with,” head coach Jason Strong said.

“Glidden has been a powerhouse program for the past decade and we need to be ready for an extremely tough challenge to open up district play. We will prepare this week for Glidden’s offense which is dominated by a power run game, option and play action pass. We feel like we improved from week one to week two, and we need to continue to improve each week. I feel great about our chances against Glidden, but I also realize this may be one of the toughest district games we play.”

Due to the Labor Day weekend, the Glidden game will already be played when this goes to press.

Kyle Kuhlman, right, rushed 154 yards in eight carries, bringing in four touchdowns for the Tigers Sept. 3.

PUBLIC NOTICE PUBLIC NOTICE “All political party candidates are reminded that Iowa Law prohibits the placement of any political signs on public rights-of-way.

Because of their proximity to the roadway, these signs distract drivers, impede roadway maintenance and, in some cases, due to the size of the sign and/or the type of mounting, can represent a contact hazard to drivers.

For these reasons, the Harrison County Roads Department will be removing any signs located on County rights-of-way as soon as they are discovered. The law further allows that the cost of these removals may be billed to the responsible party.

The signs that can be salvaged will be stored for a reasonable period of time at a County facility and can be recovered by the owner after contacting the County Engineer’s office.

Each candidate’s cooperation in assuring compliance with Iowa Law is appreciated.”

The Woodbine Twiner

September 15, 2010

Sports Tigers routed by Wildcats JEFF POWERS For The Twiner There must be something in the corn on that stretch of U.S. Highway 30 near Glidden Ralston High School.

The Wildcat football team was bigger, stronger and faster than the Tigers.

Their numbers were impressive, as it took two buses to haul them into Woodbine. The saying “what goes around comes around,“ came true last Sept. 10.

What the Tigers did to Whiting a week ago, Glidden Ralston did to them last Friday. The wildcats completely dominated us offensively and defensively.

“The key was our inability to match the physicality of Glidden Ralston. They exploited our lack of experience and size at the outside linebacker positions. I thought we played hard, but had too many blown assignments and lacked the overall intensity to compete with a great team like Glidden Ralston,” head coach Jason Strong said.

The first series on offense, for each team, would set the tone for the entire first half.

Woodbine received the opening kickoff and went three plays and punted. Glidden Ralston went eight plays, seven running, and scored the games first touchdown.

The Tigers would have nine offensive series in the first half. Of those nine series, they had four three plays and a punt, a fumble, an interception and one series where the team went four plays and turned it over on downs.

Three encouraging moments of the first half were a 65 yard touchdown run by Kyle Kuhlman, an interception return into Wildcat territory by Sam Powers and kickoff return into Wildcat territory by Powers. That was pretty much it for the Tiger offense in the first half.

On the other side of the ball it was completely the opposite. The Wildcats also had nine offensive series. They,

Josh Matusik makes a run for it last Friday against the Glidden Ralston Wildcats. The Tigers were defeated in a 58-14 contest.

Photo: Dawn Powers however, scored on eight of nine possessions being denied on the one series by the Tiger interception.

They scored on four running plays, two pass plays and one punt return. The half ended with the wildcats on top 46-8. With the interception and kickoff return into Wildcat territory, the Tigers had a chance to stay in game, but just couldn’t get the offense clicking.

Being down 46-8 starting the second half, with the continuous clock rule (a team down by 35 or more points), the second half flew by. Both teams only had three possessions. Glidden Ralston did put in some reserve players, but to the extent is not known for sure.

The Wildcats received the kickoff and drove the field. The drive, however, ended with a Zack Archer interception in the end zone. The Tigers immediately went three plays and a punt. The Wildcats then went three plays and scored. The Tigers then went seven plays and scored on a 5yard touchdown run by Archer.

That drive included the only two first downs of the game

for the Tigers and a long pass play from Archer to Josh Matusik. There was a first down in the first half which came by way of a penalty. The Wildcats answered with a five play drive which ended in a 31-yard touchdown pass. The Tigers got the ball back and on the second play Powers threw an interception when time ran out. The final score was Glidden Ralston 58, Woodbine 14.

Kyle Kuhlman had 93 rushing yards to lead the offense.

“Kyle ran hard all game long despite our limited success scoring points,” Strong said.

Zach Archer led the defense with 16 tackles.

“He showed heart and character by continuing to play hard despite the score,” Strong said about Archer.

It will be back to the drawing boards for the Tiger coaches. In the two Tiger losses, the two leading tacklers are defensive backs, which is not a good sign.

The Tigers next opponent will be Coon Rapids Bayard on the road. CRB enters the game with a 21 record after beating

Photo: Submitted The second Harrison County Humane Society Poker Run/Rescue Ride took place Sept. 11.

The ride started at Papa Joe’s in Missouri Valley. Thirty-nine signed up to ride. The stops along the way included: The Sandbar, Mondamin; Dave’s Old Home Cafe, Pisgah; Fatboyz, Moorhead; Lampe’s, Dunlap; Corn Palace, Woodbine; Doc’s, Logan; and the final card drawn at the Pryor Event Center in Magnolia. Winners were: First, Richard Clark, Logan; second,

Dana Hildreth, Logan; and third, Jon McElderry, Missouri Valley. McElderry also won the 50/50 raffle.

The food was served by Sergeant Peffer’s of Omaha, Neb. While some ate, others looked at live and silent auction items donated by indviduals or businesses.

The crowd was smaller, but the support of HCHS was appreciated. After the ride, HCHS supporters were treated to live music by Stanford Place, the opening band, and Fork In The Road.

district rival Ar-We-Va 46-7. CRB is a high powered throwing team. In its first three games their quarterbacks have thrown 140 times with 77 completions for 1,133 yards.

“This will be another tough test for our team.

Coon will spread us and throw the ball which will be a challenge for us defensively. We will have to work this week on pass defense.

Offensively we need to establish our running game to keep the defense off the field as much as possible. We need to continue to focus on improving week to week despite the tough loss this week.

The challenge for us will be to realize that a team needs to learn from our mistakes, correct them and move on to next week and try to pick up a win. As the coach my faith in this team remains strong, and we will just regroup and come out and play aggressively against CRB,” Strong said.

The Tigers will have film from the East Mills game to help devise a defensive strategy for CRB. The game at CRB will be at 7p.m. Sept. 17.

Woodbine’s cross country team hit the path for the first time this season on Sept. 11 at the Tim Thomas Cross Country Classic in Holstein.

The Tigers were up against tough competition, considering the tardiness of their season. The majority of their competitors were facing their second, and even third meet, of the season.

The boys’ team came in 10th out of 14, complete teams at the meet as they rallied to maintain good health and nurse injuries.

“The boys’ team is rebuilding this season,” head coach Rod Smith said. “We are battling some illness and minor injuries as well.”

A total of 108 runners hit the course for the boys, with Ethan Lenz being the first Woodbine runner to cross the finish line in seventh place.

“Ethan really ran a strong race for us,” Smith said.

Other Tigers aiding the team’s score included: Levi Brown, 22nd; Jameson Delaney, 55th; Robert Christo, 81st; Trevor Barnum, 86th; and Davis Hackman, 88th.

Three junior varsity runners competed as well.

Out of 147 runners, Logan Worth placed 133rd, Patrick Glackin, 141st and Chris Andersen, 147th.

On the girls’ side of the race, things looked different.

“The girls had a great day,” Smith said. “It was a great way to start the season. The girls really ran well for their first meet.”

The Lady Tigers finished second out of nine, complete teams. The only team to defeat the Tiger team was a 2A school.

Shelby Hall finished first for Woodbine, taking fifth. Other runners included: Ellen Cox, 18th; Paige Hackman, 24th; Shelby Dick, 26th; Rebekka Boer, 33rd; Emily Schwery, 40th; and Alyssa Blum, 45th.

“Shelby Hall ran with a lot of confidence. The two freshmen, Ellen and Paige, stepped up and contributed greatly. Shelby Dick is showing much improvement from last year. I’m very excited for this girls’ team,” Smith said.

Two JV runners took to the course, facing 65 runners. Megan Pauley finished 50th and Tasha McLarty, 57th.

The junior high team also competed. The junior high boys faced 63 runners with JC Probasco finishing 18th and Zeb Schwery, 33rd. The girls’ junior high team matched their high school counterparts with a second place finish. Out of 47 runners: Megan Maaske finished fifth; Emma Probasco, 23rd; Kendra Vogel, 24th; Sara Marsh, 31st; and Kassidy Willis, 43rd.
