In The News: Oaklawn Hospital implements staff reductions Oaklawn Hospital last week began the process of staff reductions that will ultimately lead to the elimination of approximately 43 positions that are currently filled. The reductions are a result of the hospital having lost approximately $5 million for fiscal year 2014. On June 16, Oaklawn President and CEO Ginger Williams addressed hospital staff on the current financial climate and how the reductions would be implemented but had no specifics about which areas or which positions would be affected, but certain leadership positions would be eliminated. Last fall, Oaklawn eliminated 21 leadership positions. Seven percent of the Oaklawn workforce is considered leadership, but 12 percent of the positions to be eliminated will be leadership positions. See story on page 16

Word on the Street How important is the power of positive thinking? Editor’s Corner

Research has shown that happiness has real health implications, providing proof that happiness has a physiological effect on conditions such as diabetes and heart disease. Findings suggest that those who have a positive mindset heal more quickly, have stronger immune systems and, on average, live longer.

by John Hendler So, I read a while back that a Yale University study has showed that happiness causes depression. Say what? Yes, apparently researchers found that too much happiness makes people selfish, less successful and in some cases, suicidal. What you talkin’ ‘bout, Willis? Yale psychologist June Gruber warns that it’s important to experience positive moods in moderation. As they say, everything in moderation. Less is more. Apparently, other studies have shown that those who who early in life reported the highest life satisfaction, judging it a 5 on a 5 point scale, for example, years later reported lower income than those who felt less happy. They also dropped out of school earlier. Lesson learned: Don’t peak too soon, whatever it is your doing. It seems that really happy people are more likely to make snap judgments, whereas sad people pay more attention to detail. I find some truth in the findings. I mean, how many of us think if we could only do this one thing or buy this one thing, it would make us happy, only to find that it wasn’t as happy-inducing as we first thought? It’s kind of a buyer’s remorse feeling after getting the be-all end-all thing we just had to have. What happens next? We feel down, perhaps even more down than if we didn’t seek out the thing we thought would make us happy. But wait, this just out: text messages boost happiness. Seems new research shows that both sending and receiving text messages can improve one’s mood if they are feeling stressed or lonely. Again, I find some truth to that. In today’s speeded up culture thanks to technology, we can instantly send a message to someone to say hi, ask them out on a date or say we love them? Instant gratification, a win-win for both parties, right? That is, of course, until we don’t get as many messages this week as we got last week and all of a sudden, quite predictably, we feel let down or not as important. Remember, everything in moderation. Or, as my dad used to say: Don’t get too excited and don’t get too down. Words to live by. Until next week, may the good news be yours.

"It’s about self perception. If you believe in yourself you can see the positive in each situation and that will help you go forward.”

"I believe in positive, realistic thinking by setting your goals within realistic parameters but once you know what’s possible, you can really achieve some great things.”

"It’s very important. Without positive thinking life would be very unfulfilling.”

Ken Zuelke, Marshall

Nancy Kita, Olivet

Marty Overhiser, Marshall

"If you don’t have a positive attitude, you’re just a loser - you can’t be happy. Most people that don’t have a positive attitude are unhappy.”

"It’s very important because it helps you stay focused to live a positive life with family and friends.”

"I always try to look at the bright side of a situation and think of other people that have it a lot tougher road than I do.”

Re-elect a true conservative - Justin Amash To the Editor:

Brian Ellis is running ads and traveling the 3rd District trying to say he is a conservative. His idea of furthering that image is to tear down our conservative U.S. Congressman Justin Amash. By cherry-picking votes, Justin has cast, and analyzing them in a very questionable light, Brian determines Justin is a liberal. Really? I know Rep. Amash has ruffled some feathers by taking a

stand against the Republican establishment (who is backing Ellis), but to call him a “liberal” is laughable. Representative Mike Rogers is backing Ellis because he was insulted when Rep. Amash took on the NSA. That bill almost passed with a bipartisan vote and Rogers was livid. How dare an upstart like Amash challenge his (Rogers’) power? So sour grapes are in Rep. Rogers’ mouth and spiteful

words are coming out. All Brian Ellis has going for him is criticizing a sitting congressman whose job he wants. Meanwhile, Justin Amash is doing the job we elected him to do. He is endorsed by conservative groups Freedom Works, Americans for Prosperity, Heritage Action for America, Club for Growth and several others. I say, Justin must be doing something right. Honesty and integrity are

qualities Justin shares with those of us who love this country. He is a fiscal conservative who wants to stop spending money we don’t have. Please go to Justin Amash’s Facebook page if you want to know how he voted and why. Don’t let someone with ulterior motives distort the truth for you.

Columns Lest We Forget...The Battle of the Bulge By MERLINSHAVER Member of VFW Post 4073 An area of wooded hills in south Belgium through which the Germans attacked France in May of 1940 and December 1944, the Ardennen Offensive refers to generally to the latter operation. Following the German flight from France in August 1944, Montgomery’s failure to capture the Rhine crossings at Aniheim and the logistic enforcement of Patton’s drive in Lorraine, a lull descended on the Western Front while the Allies reconstructed and shortened their line of communication. It was so bad that Sosthenes Behn, president of the International Telegraphy Co. (serving as Colonel in the Signal Corps) was sum-

moned to Paris to try to correct the problem of day-to-day operation. Eisenhower himself usually found out about them only when he personally toured the combat zones on one of these inspection trips he discovered his Army’s were slowed by shortened ammunition. Patton’s frustration was aggravated by these haphazard communications. They hampered him considerable because he could not wage war on his own and insisting “delay is always is always fatal to those who are prepared.” West Gallagher of the Associated Press returned to Paris from a tour of the front and confided to Commander Butcher “that officer and personnel of Patton’s Third Army were burned up because they felt the British had been favored by General Eisenhower with transport and permitted to advance while the Americans in the Third Army were slotted because of lack of gasoline.” Gallagher told Butcher that officers were

freely saying the “Eisenhower is the best general the British have.” Due to supply difficulties Eisenhower was forced to make snap decisions and compromise solutions. From time to time Patton would tell his entourage our whole trouble is that we don’t have a Supreme Commander even amid his violent criticism of Eisenhower; Patton gave full credit to him for his skill in holding the strong of his coalition firmly in his hands. Eisenhower’s tragedy was that he permitted himself to be pushed in what turned out to be a trap. When the collapse of the German Army in the west was reflected in 10,000 prisoners Patton was taking each day. It raised questions which history may have different answers. As Patton saw it, no plan at all would have been preferable to the one the Supreme Commander had evolved and which he profess such “great satisfaction.”
