COLONIAL HEIGHTS — A long-time business at the entryway to the city has been honored for recent efforts to present a better image. “Pause for a moment and think if you’d ever see the day where the city and Cal’s would have an event together,” said City Manager Tom Mattis. “I’m not overstating when I say it’s an historic day.” Owner James Meadows credited Mattis for discussing what could be done, instead of merely criticizing. “In the past we’ve had people say things and do things but people have never really come down to discuss anything. He

came down to talk to me,” Meadows said. “It’s just a fine way of how the city and a business can get along and make something better for the community.” They installed windows, painted, rebuild a dilapidated The city thanked Cal’s for recent renovation and beautifibillboard, built new fencing and cation work.

A question stimulates learning in Colonial Heights

T

here are few things that are more successful in school then engaging students with an intriguing question that holds a student’s interest. So here’s the question for some Colonial Heights Middle School students: Why are there so many seagulls in the city when there’s no ocean nearby? Seventh-grader students will be tackling that question with a new science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) initiative. To kick off the school year, the teachers held a presentation to introduces students to the new STEM unit and the problem that they’ll try to solve this school year. The students were so excited about the question that they wanted to keep discussing it in class the next day if “The kids have been really excited about things. I was really nervous going into the presentation because with a seventh grader, you never know how they’re going to respond,” said Kate Ewalt, seventh grade life science teacher. As students works to solve this problem, they’ll incorporate skills from their math and science classes, and even the arts, English and history, such as when they’ll be taught presentation skills in English class. With this unit, students are able to problem solve while dealing with a real issue and can see the problem and think about it outside of school, which makes it different from the way they previously approached math and science, the teachers said. Ewalt said there’s a big misconception among students that they’ll never use math and the STEM unit and its question shows that’s not the case. “This real world problem gives them a chance to actually use it for something they want to solve,” Ewalt said. Are the seagulls here because of the landfill near Wal-Mart? With that theory, students crafted their first miniature landfill in a five-gallon bucket - complete with scraps from Thursday's cafeteria lunch. Crafted also with rocks, soil, waste and plastic bags, the landfills will be kept in a habitat on the school’s grounds. The final challenge for the students is to design a way that would help get rid of the seagulls so that native species of birds can thrive in the area. Because students will be using problem-solving skills, Ewalt said there isn’t one correct answer. Dr. Joe Douglas, instructional specialist, said students are so used to consuming material and solving unrealistic problems, but “learning is exactly the opposite.” “There’s not an answer. I think that’s the exciting thing about it. It’s a real challenge and the kids seem to be engaged and excited about it.” There may not be one correct answer to the question, but still there may be some Colonial Heights residents asking students experts for an explanation: Why do you think seagulls are flocking to Colonial Heights? That’s an educational exercise that will empower students and intrigue others.

Warner has been bad for Virginia, nation When Sen. Mark Warner was the governor of Virginia, he had been recorded as responsible for the largest tax increase in Virginia history. Now, he has the audacity to call it the greatest "surplus." As a senator, he has said yes to increasing the National Debt, yes to increasing our taxes, and yes to Obamacare, where he is now telling us that if re-elected, he will "fix it." Obamacare is beyond fixing. It needs to be repealed! The current administration, of which he is a part, has had 6 years to fix Obamacare and it still doesn't work. And, furthermore, the final "shoe" has yet to drop on this fiasco! In a nutshell, Warner was bad for Virginia as governor, has been bad for America as a senator, and will continue to be bad for America if reelected. God Forbid! Let's give Ed Gillespie a chance. Gary Allen Chesterfield County

Unions can hurt employeremployee relationship Virginia was founded on the principle of free enterprise, something that has been an important part of our shared DNA since the very beginning. As chairman and president of the Thomas Jefferson Institute for Public Policy, Virginia’s premier independent public policy foundation, we have long championed this spirit of free enterprise that has been the foundation for so much of our success here in the Commonwealth. Richmond has great pride in the energetic and entrepreneurial creative class. The people who have started local companies all share the knowledge that their success depends on the people who actually make their businesses run. In short, without a strong employer-employee relationship – one that is rooted in honesty, fairness and commitment – there is simply no way a company can expect to survive over the long-term. Experience has shown that establishing such a partnership is more difficult in the face of unionization. Our country is understanding this as union membership in industry continues to decline and the only “growth sector” for unions is in government where bottom line profits don’t factor into the equation. Union organizers, as I understand

it, oftentimes don’t really get into the serious discussions with prospective members of possible forced work stoppages that result in lost wages or the fact that a significant portion of union membership fees and dues go for promoting political agendas and paying high union salaries. In addition, several unions have a history of mismanaging their members’ pension funds, putting the retirement livelihoods of those union members at risk. And for the companies themselves, unionization can be painfully disruptive and divisive, even a catalyst for failure. With all of this in mind, I would urge all local employees at FedEx Freight and others to ask tough questions of the Teamsters officials who have come to Richmond to cajole them into believing that these unions have their best interests at heart. There is a reason why Virginia is a Right-to-Work state and why Indiana, Wisconsin and even Michigan has joined those ranks over the past couple of years. Unions had their place in our workplace history and were needed at one time. That time has passed. Michael W. Thompson Chairman & President Thomas Jefferson Institute for Public Policy Springfield, Va.

Ebola is a threat to Virginia and nation “President Obama is moving too slowly in dealing with Ebola coming to America.” That sentiment is a most telling statement. It was made by Sen. Mark Warner in the debate with Ed Gillespie last week. Slow is how a snail moves. That would be vastly overstating the president’s actions. At that point he had done nothing more than assure America that Ebola would not come to our country. More telling is that this is the first issue that Sen. Warner has not been in lockstep with President Obama. Of the many issues that Virginians rank as important, this was the only one that Warner has been even mildly critical. Ebola is not an issue that can be lightly dismissed. It is here and it is real. On Thursday, the Virginia Commissioner of Health, Dr. Levine, assured the Senate Finance Committee that her staff was well aware of the risk involved and she has the authority to act if need be. She cited that VCU’s MCV had the needed protective equipment, as I expect UVA and maybe one or two other hospitals in the state do. If a

handful of cases are confirmed in the state, those hospitals might be able to help them. There are, however, a few glaring issues that came to mind from her presentation. First, what happens in much of Virginia that does not have these types of trauma units? If someone comes into one of our clinics or hospitals, how are the first employees to make contact and other patients going to be protected? Will trained medical staff be able to get fully protected before others are put in harm’s way? Second, with Dulles being one of the busiest international airports, what happens when a passenger appears sick over the Atlantic? Dr. Devine assured us that they were prepared to quarantine all passengers if need be, but what happens with the second, third, and fourth? Where can we hold 1,000 or more travelers for three weeks? The reality is that we do have plans for limited exposures, but we may be faced with far greater numbers than we can cope with. Now might be a good time to reflect back on history to make comparisons with this type of concern in the past. In the 4th century, the bubonic plague is believed to have taken the lives of one third of the world’s population. It had been spread by fleas on rats that climbed the ropes of ships at the docks. Eventually ship owners started installing metal guards on those ropes to prevent the rats from climbing on and off the ships. Yet with Ebola, our president has refused to control our borders to protect you and your family. A decade ago the concern was a pandemic from avian flu. Washington provided great detail to the states and communities of how to deal with such a possibility. Yet, as of now, few have been honestly informed about how dangerous Ebola is, and that information has come piecemeal from the media. There has been no serious effort by the government to explain the risks and what steps to take to protect your loved ones. The administration in Washington must level with the American people as well as make common sense decisions that can limit the risks. First and foremost is to stop flights out of high risk countries and seal our southern borders. We love to hear from you! You can contact us at Sen.Ruff@verizon.net, 434-374-5129 and P. O. Box 332, Clarksville, VA 23927. Sen. Frank M.Ruff Jr. R-Clarksville 15th Senate District Dinwiddie, Prince George counties

FORBES From Page V1

1978 and we have been blessed with four wonderful children and three grandchildren. Q: Why have you decided to run for reelection? A: One of my greatest privileges as I serve in the U.S. House of Representatives is to be in the fight to protect the men and women who serve in our military with such dedication and selflessness, and to care for our veterans, who are the real American heroes. Working to provide them with the best resources and support possible is not just a duty, it's an honor. I look forward to continuing to build strong partnerships to support Fort Lee, and fighting to roll back the devastating cuts that threaten our world-class military, our national security, and thousands of Virginia jobs. I also look forward to continuing the fight for what is on the minds of so many of my constituents: preserving their jobs and creating economic opportunity for them, their children, and their grandchildren in the Commonwealth and across our nation. Q: What was the toughest issue before the House of Representatives this term? A: The toughest issue our nation faces today is the dysfunction in Washington. In order to address the array of

other challenges confronting us - the crisis on our southern border, the dismantling of the greatest military on earth, the stagnant economy – we must first solve the crisis in common sense that we see in Washington. We need to use the same common sense that most Americans use every day in their own lives and apply it to Washington: Don’t spend more than you make. Balance the budget. Secure the border. Follow the rule of law. Stop the overspending by holding Washington directly accountable – tie Members of Congress’ salary to government spending, so the more they spend, the less they make. Stop crushing our small businesses with taxes and regulations. Free them up to create real jobs and real economic growth. Place principles above politics, and find common ground to work together towards common goals. On a local level, I've been proud to work alongside Democrats and Republicans in the Fourth District to create state, local, and federal partnerships as well as private sector partnerships to create and maintain jobs in our region. The Virginia delegation also has a strong record of working together across party lines to do what is best for our Commonwealth – and that is what Washington needs more of today in order to solve the government dysfunction crippling our country.

Q: What was your favorite accomplishment in your tenure? A: As Chairman of the House Armed Services Seapower & Projection Forces Subcommittee, my greatest priority and privilege is to support our service members, our veterans, and their families. Defending our defenders – fighting to end devastating defense cuts, providing service members with cutting-edge technology and resources, getting them timely medical care, smoothing the process of transitioning into the civilian workplace – is the least we can do in the face of the enormous sacrifices they have made on our behalf and on the behalf of this country. In response to my steadfast defense of our men and women in uniform, I’ve been awarded The MOAA "Legislator of the Year,” AMVETS Silver Helmet Award, and ROA President’s Award. I am also both honored and humbled to have received the highest civilian honors from both the U.S. Army and U.S. Navy for my work in Congress. Q: What goals do you have for another term? A: Lighting up the economy by empowering small businesses to create real growth is one of my highest priorities moving forward. I’ve introduced the “414 Plan” to address unnecessary, burdensome regulations and red tape so that we can jumpstart road and bridge construction, and put Americans back

to work. The Tri-Cities area’s manufacturing sector is an innovation hub and is leading the way in incredible product development and production. Enabling greater global competitiveness and creating a national manufacturing strategy will pave the way for more job growth, innovation and productivity. I’m honored to have received the National Association of Manufacturer’s Award for Legislative Excellence for my work to overturn regulations crushing Fourth District companies, and I’m continuing to work to ensure government is an enabler of economic growth, instead of a barrier. Q: What is your favorite thing about the Tri-Cities area? A: The people who live in the Tri-Cities area. I am consistently both impressed and inspired by the strong partnership between Fort Lee and the people of the Tri-Cities communities. It is rare to see a group of individuals work together so cohesively and effectively across political lines and across localities, to do what is best for the greater community at large. Their model of putting aside differences and coming together to build strong working relationships founded on mutual trust, respect, and shared goals has been key to the health and success of this region – and is one that Washington could definitely learn from.

Colonial Heights’ Blake Cox (3) hits against Thomas Dale’s Cory Allgood (10) and Chad Hamby (3) during Tuesday night’s game at CHHS. PATRICK KANE PHOTOS/PROGRESS-INDEX PHOTOS

Colonials reach 15-0 By Court Wills Staff Writer

COLONIAL HEIGHTS — Winning isn't everything, but winning with integrity and with pride is everything for the Colonial Heights boys volleyball program. For Mark Lee and his Colonials, this year has been something special. At 15-0, Colonial Heights is having one of its if its best season in program history. But if you ask Lee, winning all these games is all well and good but it is more impressive how these players have won these volleyball matches. "I do enjoy the ride because like I've told them I've played on a lot of teams that were really good, and that were really bad, and the most important thing I've learned is that it's more important being with the right people because that's what makes it fun," Lee said. "We've had so much fun this season, but even if we weren't, I would be still having fun because I enjoy the type of people that these guys are." Over the time that Lee has been the coach of the boys volleyball team, he consistently preaches

being humble and playing with authenticity. Meaning don't go out and exploit a team that isn't as good, nor play below the capability that you know how you can play. "It depends on how we play. If we play to the best of our ability and we still lose, I cannot be disappointed about that with them because we played the game like we knew how. But if we win and play terrible, then I don't like to win that way," Lee

said. "To me, it's all about the intensity that we play with and these guys don't like to lose. I am confident that they are always putting their best foot forward and if I see that they are not, then they know I will tell them." For senior leader Blake Cox he knows all too well how important this ride has been for the Colonials boys volleyball team. Last year during practice,

Cox broke his hand in three different places, an injury that sidelined him for most of the season. During his time on the volleyball team, he's taken on many roles as cheerleader on the bench to libero and now this year as a hitter. "Last year was tough. This year is personal for me because last year I got hurt and we missed regional finals, so we've worked really hard to get back to this point," Cox said. "I've worked a lot on my vertical and have been taught how to jump and block better because I try to be as aggressive as I can. I really try to make sure that I see and go to the right spot." That hard work has paid off because not only do the Colonials always look to their big man up top, junior Noah Murdock. but they also know that they can look for Cox to go up for that big kill. "We have a lot more options and we work on that a lot in practices," Murdock said. "We take advantage of having many leaders on this team that can take matters into their own hands at any time."
