Community pulls together in a time of crisis Local residents pitch in, help neighbors and friends threatened by Missouri River floodwaters It is nearly impossible to engage someone in conversation in Siouxland these days without discussing the predicament that is unfolding along the Missouri River. Whether you live near the banks of the Missouri or not, you will be impacted by the developments associated with the cresting of the Mighty Mo. Of course, some are more directly impacted than others, but, be assured, we are all in this together. Most of us first took note of this impending crisis over the Memorial Day weekend. For me, the first sign that something was a bit out of the ordinary was on Thursday, May 26, when my seven-year-old son and I arrived for his 6 p.m. soccer game at the Jeff Dible Soccer Complex in South Sioux City. There was a small amount of water lapping at the very edge of the complex and I thought nothing of it. Nevertheless, the evening’s games were cancelled. The following night, on Friday, May 27, I received a less than urgent phone call from a friend in Dakota Dunes requesting some help to move some personal property out of her basement. As we began to move these items on Saturday morning, there were a few golfers on the Dunes golf course and some folks were rather routinely mowing their lawns. At that time nobody seemed too terribly excited and my friend turned to me and said, “Do you think I am overreacting?” By the end of the day Saturday, I was helping one family in the Dunes stack some sandbags around their home overlooking the river and another friend move a few small heirlooms from his residence.
TSI Report CHRIS MCGOWAN
By Sunday morning, however, it was as if someone had activated an alarm and Dakota Dunes immediately came to life with trucks, trailers, volunteers, and a panic had set in as people hurriedly packed up and prepared to relocate. Remarkably, the citizens in the Dunes couldn’t necessarily count on their neighbors. Not because they wouldn’t help, they couldn’t help, because everyone was moving out at once! One person compared it to kicking an ant hill and watching the ants launch into hyper-drive. Watching the activity at the Dunes was a little like that. The clothes and furniture came out fairly easily, the piano however, was a different story. These aren’t professional movers these are “regular Joes.” These are the guys you bowl or play softball with, or maybe the guy that delivered your last baby. What do they know about moving and storing a piano? Nothing! But they did it because that’s what we do and that’s who we are. Entire families wanted to help; kids, mom and dad, even grandma and grandpa pitched in to assist. We were all working together and just as we cut the wires and pulled the

microwave oven and range out of the kitchen wall, someone was kind enough to drop off some pop, beer, and a couple of pizzas. For the better part of a week, most of Siouxland was engaged in helping a neighbor move from one of several neighborhoods in South Dakota or Nebraska. Later, hundreds and then thousands of volunteers started filling the sandbags needed to protect homes, businesses, and critical
infrastructure. At the YMCA, a 69-year-old man from Homer helped seal the sandbags with metal clips. At Dakota Valley a legion of the nicest folks you’d ever want to meet from Orange City filled and tied the bags alongside little kids from Sioux City. All the while, volunteers from all over filled, folded, and stacked sandbags on pallets at the Long

Light bulbs ‘getting better all the time’ BY JOHN QUINLAN Business Journal staff writer
The future of light bulbs is the LED, the light-emitting diode bulb. “These are getting better and better all the time. The LED, that’s the future. The technology’s changing. That’s where everything’s headed. They’re getting better all the time,” says Harlan Lessman, owner of Lessman’s Lighting Center in Sioux City. Yet he admitted that while the LED is the best available, its higher cost makes it an unlikely contender to soon replace the compact fluorescent light (CFL) bulbs, those squiggly energy savers that have been selected by federal regulators to replace the popular but energydeficient incandescent light bulbs that many Americans have already begun hoarding. Over the past few months, the federal law calling for better lighting efficiency starting in 2012 has

brought many politicians to the defense of the old bulbs. “Instead of a leaner, smarter government, we bought a bureaucracy

the Union. Backing up her words, Bachmann is the author of the Light Bulb Freedom of Choice Act, which would repeal the federal requirement that the typical 100watt bulb become 25 percent more energy efficient by 2012. The changes will, by law, be phased in. They will affect 100watt bulbs on Jan 1, 2012, 75-watt bulbs a year later, and 60-and 40watt bulbs on Jan. 1, 2014. People aren’t exactly flocking to stores yet to buy up the squigglies. CFL sales, in fact, peaked in 2007. Lessman, who for aesthetic reasons personally prefers the incandescents to the CFLs, said one reason people complain about the squigglies is that they buy the “bottom-end bulbs” found at many big box stores. “Not many of them come to a place like us or any of the other wholesalers in town and buy the better bulbs. There’s always the good ones, and there’s
the cheap ones,” he said. Lessman said a neighbor put some CFLs in a ceiling fan over the dining room and the look was less than pleasing. But if you want to save energy, CFL is the way to go, he said. And though they may cost more, they last a lot longer than the incandescents. And last but not least, he observed, the most recent CFLs burn brighter faster than they did when they were first introduced. “They save electricity because we have 13-watters in these things, which is the equivalent of a 60watt bulb. Then we have a 20-watt that’s equivalent to a 100-watt bulb. So yeah, you’re definitely saving energy, no ifs, ands or buts about it. And that’s what the government is trying to do. They’re trying to keep the power down so that they don’t have to build power

Say goodbye to tendonitis pain Your Community Bank is here to Help
Have you ever felt a dull, achy, or throbbing pain coming from your shoulder and arm? Have you ever felt a sharp or stabbing pain when reaching above your head, across the front of your body or behind your back? If you said “yes” to one or both of these questions, you may have inflammation of the tendonsin your rotator cuff tendonsor bicep tendon of your shoulder, also known as tendonitis.
WHAT IS TENDONITIS?
We offer the following services: x Private Banking x Free-Checking, Internet Banking & Bill Pay x Lines of Credit x Mortgage Lending
* Liberty National Bank’s Wealth Management x Investment Management
Simply put, it’s pain and inflammation of a tendon. You have over 1,200 tendons in your body, and tendons attach muscle to bone. Common posture and work habits may aggravate these shoulder tendons including awkward postures like reaching for your computer mouse, lifting items above shoulder level, driving your car with only one hand on the steering wheel and sleeping on your sides. Tendonitis pain can be common in the shoulder, elbow, wrist, thumb, knee, Achilles and foot.

Ice massage is the best self-care technique for preventing and treating tendonitis pain. I recommend performing ice massage 2 to 4 times a day, with the end of the workday being one of the most important times of the day to perform the technique. Other times may include before work, at lunch or midshift or before bed if the pain and inflammation is waking you up at night. Ice massage can be performed in two ways. You can fill a Styrofoam cup with water and

put this into the freezer. Once it’s frozen, tear the top edges off the cup and rub ice directly over the area for 2 to 4 minutes until the body part is numb. Or, you may also hold an ice cube directly from the freezer on the impacted area and perform this same technique until that body part feels number. Typically, after three to seven days of performing ice massage, you should notice 75% or better improvement with ease in range of motion, improved daily activities at work, home and play and a significant reduction of pain with improved restful sleep too. Next month, we’ll discuss the power of reversing and treating carpal tunnel syndrome, wrist tendonitis and tennis elbow by performing the snakebite technique. It may bring back memories of childhood and the fun of giving your friend a “snakebite.”

Getting greener Southern Hills Mall adopts measures to conserve energy, natural resources BY DAVE DREESZEN Business Journal editor
Business Journal photo by Dave Dreeszen
Kathy Jurgens, the new property manger for Southern Hills Mall, is shown in front of the Sioux City shopping center, which has adopted a number of environmentallyfriendly practices. The mall recently moved outdoors a number of planters like the one next to Jurgens.
Jurgens moves into new role at mall Kathy Jurgens recently took over as property manager for the Southern Hills Mall. She succeeds Bill Haase, who retired April 29 after nearly 29 years managing the mall, which opened in 1980 at Sergeant Road and South Lakeport Street. Jurgens previously served as the assistant property manager at The Empire Mall in Sioux Falls for 10 years. Like the Empire, Southern Hills Mall is owned by the Macerich Co. She began her shopping center career in 1992 at The Empire as a part-time accountant. During her career, she stepped in to serve as the acting property manager of other Macerich shopping centers, including ShoppingTown Mall in Dewitt, N.Y., and Green Tree Mall in Clarksville, Ind. A graduate of the University of Sioux Falls, Jurgens and her husband, Brian, reside on an acreage near Parker, S.D., where Brian farms and runs a seed corn business. The couple have two grown children. To cut down on the number of days she makes the 1 1/2-hour commute to the mall, Kathy Jurgens has taken an apartment in Sioux City. Jurgens said she looks forward to becoming more active in the local business community. During the first few weeks in Sioux City, she has watched in amazement as releases on the Missouri River rise to record levels, threatening hundreds of local homes and businesses. “It’s heartbreaking for me, as I drive in every day and see the water change,” she said. “We’re very concerned for these folks.”
Scores of cardboard boxes arrive at Southern Hills Mall each week, filled with clothing, shoes, books, food, kitchen ware, sporting goods and other merchandise. All those empty containers once wound up with the rest of the trash in the landfill. No longer. The mall now provides its tenants with separate outdoor compactors for corrugated cardboard, which is recycled. “The retailers get billed less if they have more recyclable waste,” said Kathy Jurgens, the mall’s property manager. The mall management office itself not only recycles its own cardboard, paper and alumnium, but also works to reduce waste and conserve natural resources. Turning off the color function, office staff print documents only in black and white, and avoid using paper whenever possible. Staff are encouraged to read documents on their computers. “Instead of printing out memos and passing them around to everybody, it’s been done by email,” Jurgens said. Recycling is one of a number of “green” initiatives the Sioux City mall has adopted in recent years. Its California-based owner, Macerich, one of the nation’s leading shopping center owners, developers and operators, has sharply focused on sustainability, conserving resources while simultaneously supporting its business goals. Southern Hills Mall has made major changes in how it uses energy. Hallogen lights have been replaced with bulbs that are not only more energy efficient but also give off a less harsh glow. Depending on the season and weather conditions, mall officials also turn off lights during much of the daytime, relying instead on natural sunlight streaming through the skylights and other windows. The environmentally-friendly practices have cut annual energy costs by about 20 percent, she said. A major project in the works offers

Powering Intelligent Networks. Powering Curious People. S Sometimes we need an incentive to explore. That’s what Free First Fridays is all about at the Washington Pavilion of Arts and Science. Heiberge made the drive Mary Heiberger from Beresford recently so her boys, nine-year-old Jackson and six-year-old Mason, could get their hands on the science exhibits during an affordable, fun evening.
SDN Communications provides the broadband equipment and services to make the Pavilion work. But it also gives back by assuring the Pavilion is open to all. Thanks to SDN and others, Pavilion doors open for free on the ďŹ rst Friday evening of each month. Last year more than 8,000 people experienced it.
“They love it. Absolutely love it. They could spend hours here—and they’re learning at the same time,â€? Heiberger said. Why does SDN do it? Well, we hope the exploring inspires Jackson, Mason and others to consider a technical career someday‌ maybe even at SDN. o to To see the online video of SDN’s gift in use, go www.youtube.com/sdncomm

Managing disaster-related stress The recent and prolonged flooding of the Missouri River is affecting many in the Siouxland area. Long
hours of moving/sandbagging, emotional and physical exhaustion and dealing with losses from damaged
property are taking their toll. Even those whose homes are not directly affected by the flooding may experience

additional stress due to a variety of factors including changes at their place of employment and/or transportation delays and detours. Disaster-related stress can affect people in a variety of ways. Physical reactions include changes in appetite, digestive problems, difficulty sleeping, fatigue, headaches, other aches and pains, allergies, sinus problems and colds and flu. A disaster such as a major flood can also have emotional consequences. This can include irritability, anger, depression, apathy, suspiciousness, crying for no apparent reason, and frustration. Many also experience feelings of powerlessness, moodiness, anxiety about the unknown/future, guilt and isolation from friends and family. Children are especially vulnerable to disaster-related stress. Some behaviors parents and childcare providers may notice include clinginess, a reluctance by the child to go to bed, nightmares, crying, a refusal to leave home and/or an inability to concentrate. Fortunately, numerous coping tips and strategies
Home & Office KIRA OREGON
are effective in helping manage disaster-related stress symptoms. First and foremost, take time to sleep or rest. Being in a routine is comforting to mind and body. Strive to maintain routine with meals and rest, especially with children. Spending time with others and talking about feelings is helpful. Lending a hand to others and periodically checking in with friends and family helps create a healthy sense of community. If significant signs of emotional distress or depression are present in a family member or friend, strongly encourage an appointment with a mental health professional. It is also important to seek help with symptoms worsen over time, or persist at a high level for over a month. Other life circumstances can intensify stress

Flood: Most challenging, yet ďŹ nest hours FROM PAGE 3 Lines/Tyson Events Center Parking lot. Mid-week, when the temperature spiked at around 100 degrees and the wind gusted at 35 mph, I watched indefatigable people fill sandbags as the wind blew and the sand stuck to their sweaty faces and forearms. I saw truck drivers by the hundreds, operating on virtually no sleep, rush up and down Interstate-29 to deliver loads of dirt for the construction of emergency levees. I saw civic and political leaders in Sioux City send sandbags to their neighbors in Nebraska and South Dakota. I saw companies donating food, trailers, supplies, and even give their
employees paid time off to go help their co-workers and friends. I saw the leadership of Dakota Dunes driving around their community to make sure their residents had the information they needed and the help they required to prepare for what many feared might become a â&#x20AC;&#x153;worst case scenario.â&#x20AC;? I saw Pat Boeshart, the president of LiteForm Technologies, and his son, Jim, explain to a United States Senator how committed they are to South Sioux City and why they are donating all of their time and materials to build a secondary levee to protect the community
they love. Perhaps most importantly, I saw my hometown leap into action and selflessly help one another when they were needed most. With my own eyes, I saw some of the finest people in the world treat others as they would hope to be treated in their hour of need. When I really looked closely however, I saw what everyone else saw; that 2011 will be a very challenging summer, but I also saw that this may very well be our finest hour.
