R ich ard B erm an, M an h attan v ille president and cofounder of the My S o ld ier pen pal program suggests that, “You can make a difference in those soldier’s daily lives. Registering and participating in My S o ld ier p ro v id es civilians the chance to show how grateful we all are for everything our soldiers and marines do to protect our freedom and liberties.” Since Independence Day is recognized as a main patriotic holiday of the entire country it is an appropriate time to let service personnel know you are thinking of them . A cco rd in g ly , My Soldier.com created five sim ple w ays to show patriotic support: -G o to w w w .m ysoIdier.com to register for the “My Soldier” program and adopt a soldier who could use a pen-pal friend. -En co ur ag e children/students to spend th eir sum m er vacation creating a meaningful, even e d u ca tio n a l, pen pal relationship. -Join the program as a family. Fam ily w riting projects can create a bond for a common cause, which deepens familial ties. -Wear the free red My Soldier bracelet mailed to you via a SASE (self ad d ressed stam ped en v elo p e) to show your support. -Submit the name of an active soldier who would like to be adopted through the website link. The p ro g ra m 's cofounders maintain that in ad d itio n to p h y sical protection, such as well- armored vehicles for those in harm’s way, we must tend to psychological needs as well. Som etim es, soldiers ju st need a hum an touch, an ability to know that someone out there really does care and appreciate what they do, regardless of the political controversy engendered by their assignment. The My Soldier pen pal program seeks to fulfill that need for affirmation for our soldiers on a one-by-one basis. “If the U nited S tates w ishes to remain a society of justice and opportunity, we must continually find ways to protect the people who lay th e ir life on the line to preserve it,” said Berman. “Our men and women in uniform deserve continuing confirmation of the value of their courage, commitment and service.” U.S. Army Sergeant Juan S alas, a student at Manhattanville College in Purchase, New York served for 14 months in Iraq. Upon his return to campus, he and, M anhattanville President Richard Berman developed My S o ld ier, a sp ecial program that puts politics aside and lets U.S. soldiers know that som eone back hom e cares. S alas and Berman hope that the My S o ld ier pro g ram b rin g s so ld iers and A m erican citizens together and helps soldiers feel appreciated. C u rren tly the program is serving over 175,000 servicem en and w om en, and has ap p ro x im ately 3 5 0,000 civilians participating by writing letters and sending care p ack ag es to th eir “ a d o p te d ” soldier. Participants who agree to “ a d o p t” a so ld ie r are provided with a “starter kit” which contains information to help get them stated with writing to their soldier, a list of items they may appreciate in a care package and a red b ra c ele t w hich has Manhattanville My Soldier embossed on it. SWCD provides puncture vine report Another cool spring has delayed the emergence of puncturevine, Tribulus terrestris L. or goathead. P u n c tu re v in e is not a noxious weed according to M orrow C ounty W eed O rd in an ce, but it is obnoxious. Seedlings are up and spreading “ like bad weeds,” some already have flowers that will become seed heads in one to two weeks. Now is the time to get out your shovel or back pack sprayer and eliminate these invaders just waiting to unleash their wrath of pain and misery on you or your pets. If you’ve ever stepped on a g o ath ead th at w as tracked in on your carpet, you know what I mean. D ilig en ce and persistence are the name of this game. W hen digging goathead plants, take care not to shake any seeds loose and dispose of the plant in the trash or bum barrel. You should go back to the area in a couple o f w eeks to check for new sprouts and especially after a rain. Each goathead burr separates into five separate segments, each segm ent has two to four seeds inside and can typically remain viable for three to seven y ears, p a tie n tly w aiting for ju st the right conditions to sprout. A cco rd in g to a sp o k esp erso n from the M orrow C ounty W eed A d visory B oard, puncturevine can be found all over M orrow C ounty b ecau se the bu rrs w ill hitchhike on your tires and ran d o m ly fall o ff and germ inate. Be observant when parking your car, you could be in a puncturevine patch. Marriage Licenses M ay 16: Jeffrey Keith Key, 41, lone and Lydia Kay Johnston. 44, Richland. WA. Oregon gets ‘C’ in fight against prostate cancer Five states failed the first-ever prostate cancer state-by-state report card issu ed by the N ational Prostate Cancer Coalition (NPCC) in time for June (Do it for Dad! - Men’s Health Awareness Month). “Many states are not doing even the sim plest things when it com es to fighting prostate .:a icer,” NPCC C EO R ichard N. Atkins, M.D. said. “Early detection saves lives and far too m any states d o n ’t encourage men to know the risks and to get tested.” The report cards are a result of a study by NPCC where each state is graded based on current prostate c an c e r screen in g rates, mortality rates and if each state currently has laws in place guaranteeing insurance co v erag e for testin g . S creening and m ortality rates are calculated from raw data made available by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Alabama. Arkansas, Idaho, M ississip p i and Wisconsin didn’t make the grade w hile C a lifo rn ia , C o n n ecticu t (earn in g a p e rfe c t score o f 100), K ansas and New York earned A’s. Each state that failed does not have laws in place forcing insurance companies to cover prostate exam s. O nly 28 states have in su ra n ce m andates compared to 49 states that require insurance agencies to c o v er b reast c an c e r screenings- a disease with a nearly identical caseload. Utah, which was given a “D- ," is the only state in the union not to offer insurance for both prostate and breast cancer screenings. “There are several states that could’ve scored A’s if only they had screening m a n d ates,” said A tkins. “Screening rates are already starting to improve among the states that have recently adopted screening mandates like O regon and Washington.” We Print Computer Forms Heppner G azette 676-9228
