Idaho is a Happy Giving State Are you happy? According to a recent survey, Idaho is ranked number ten in the nation for happy people. With a number of politicians touting Idaho’s low ranking in the area of wages and spending on government programs, it seems that money is not as important as some people would like to think it is, when it comes to happiness. Certainly, money can buy happiness - to a point - but once your income level reaches about $60,000 to $70,000 per year, money makes very little difference in a person’s overall happiness. Of course, one has to ask the question, “What is happiness?” or “What makes you happy?” Generally, happiness is defined as a feeling of emotional well-being. Factors that
make one happy are life/job satisfaction, mental and physical health, environment, and social connections. Besides Idaho, several western states were ranked high in happiness: Utah #1, North Dakota #3, and Colorado #4 (Minnesota was #2). One reason that has been suggested for this is that these states have better access to outside recreational opportunities. Hawaii is one of the best places to live for recreation, but the high cost of living pushed its overall happiness ranking down to #8 (money can work both ways). The other big factor in happiness is social connections, and it has nothing to do with how many facebook friends you have - it’s family. Utah came out on top of the rankings, precisely for that reason. High family values have the effect of reducing stress shared burdens are always easier to carry - and less stress means more happiness. Another ranking that may be related to this happiness is volunteerism. People volunteer, primarily to invest in making their communities better or to help others with the burdens of life. The number one state for volunteerism is Utah, followed by Minnesota (#2) and... Idaho in third place. For more information, check out Pharrell Williams “Happy” on YouTube.

October Energy Action Month
What is one action you can take to save energy, water, and money every day? Try replacing your old showerhead with a WaterSense labeled model! Showering accounts for nearly 17 percent of all residential indoor water use, or about 30 gallons per household per day. That’s about 1.2 trillion gallons of water every year in the United States! What’s more, it takes energy to heat the water when you shower. This October, The City of Fairfield is also celebrating Shower Better Month by encouraging consumers in Camas County to replace old showerheads with WaterSense labeled models to save energy and other resources. Like all WaterSense labeled products, showerhead models that earn the WaterSense label have been independently certified to meet the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA’s) criteria for water continued on page 5.....

efficiency, force, and flow. That means you’|I enjoy the same level of water coverage you’ve come to expect, and you’|| shower better, all while saving water, energy, and money on your utility bills. By replacing a showerhead with a WaterSense labeled model, the average family can reduce its annual energy and water costs by more than $70 and save 2,900 gallons of water per year - the amount of water it takes to wash more than 70 loads of loads of laundry. What’s more, because it takes energy to heat shower water, that family can save the amount of electricity it takes to power its home for 13 days every year just by switching to a WaterSense labeled showerhead. To make it easy to try a water, and energy, saving showerhead the City has purchased shower heads for consumer purchase. Come by the Fairfield city office, we have low flow showerheads for purchase at a cost of $7.00 and low flow aerators for $2.00.

I want to go on record as endorsing Jessica Scott for the office of Lincoln County Commissioner in the November 2014 election. I have had the pleasure of working alongside Jessica at Richfield Schools for the past three years. In that time, we have served on numerous committees together including the Pathways to Promotion Committee, School Improvement Team, and Senior Project Scoring Panel. Over the past three years Jessica has demonstrated positive leadership qualities and the ability to work with diverse groups of people, both of which would be benefits to the office of County Commissioner. Jessica understands the importance of keeping accurate records and of dealing congenially with the public. She is honest, reliable, and willing to work the long hours needed for the position. I firmly believe Jessica Scott is the most qualified candidate to fill the office of Lincoln County Commissioner. Kevin Case, Richfield ~~~~~ As I look outside I see the signs of autumn, and looking at the calendar it seems to be an even numbered year. Which, means this is an election year. In Lincoln County, we are losing a very good representative in County Commissioner Marsha Hiatt. The kicker in this situation is that it leaves us with no person on the ballot for the Richfield District. Therefore, we have a full slate of write-in candidates. There is one of the write-in candidates who stands out as being exceptionally well qualified to serve Lincoln County in its quest to get growing again (you may not know that Richfield, in the early 1900’s, had a population of around 4,000). We need leaders who are willing to listen and to seek out new ideas that would enhance business growth. We need someone with the personality to bring businesses to Lincoln County. We need someone who appreciates our wonderful public education system, and has shown the ability to work with others for a common goal. The person I would like to endorse is Jessica Scott. Jessica is a lifelong resident of Richfield. She was raised on a working dairy farm, and was active in 4-H and FFA. Jessica has served on the Lincoln County Fair Board, is a member of the Richfield Planning and Zoning, is on the Selective Service Board, and is active in many school projects. Jessica has the leadership skills to stand up for the betterment of our community, and the people skills to work with others. Jessica Scott is a great fit for the times we are living, and will help make Lincoln County all it can be. Write in Jessica Scott Mike Cenarrusa

Re-Elect a Proven Leader Who Works for You A few months ago I made an attempt to clean up my desk. Well, the process was not totally completed. Now I’m at it again. In the corner was a stack of those riddles, so this week I’m cleaning off a few more from my desk. I don’t even know why I save riddles because they are not my favorite humor. I think some of them were for the Camas Quips that occasionally found space in the paper. At any rate, you once again get them so I can attempt to clean my desk! Who has more fun when you tickle a mule? He may enjoy it, but you’ll get the bigger kick out of it. Did you hear the story about the piece of butter? Never mind. I don’t want to spread it around. Who invented the first airplane that didn’t fly? The Wrong Brothers. What kind of job did the lazy man get? He stood around so long doing nothing, he became a dust collector. What do you have to know to be a real estates salesman? Lots! What did George Washington say to his men before crossing the Delaware by boat? “Get in!” Why shouldn’t you sweep out a room? The job is too big. Just sweep out the dirt and leave the room there. If two’s company and three’s a crowd, what is four and five? Nine. Why is a shoemaker like a clergyman? Both try to save soles (souls). Why is a drama teacher like the pony express? Because he is a stage coach. What does a farmer grow if he works hard enough? Tired. What kind of policemen enjoy their work most? Traffic policemen because they whistle while they work. What is nothing but holes tied to holes, yet strong as iron? A chain. What did the bald man say when he got a comb? I’ll never part with it. What word grows smaller when you add letters to it? Add “er” to short and it becomes shorter. What animals are poor dancers? Four-legged one because they have two left feet. Chief Running Water had two sons. What were their names? Hot and Cold, same as this “Cup of Tee.” Tee Hurd

SCPHD Press Release Strong Today, Falls Free® Tomorrow is the 2014 theme of the National Fall Awareness Week sponsored by the National Council on Aging. “Older adults in Idaho have higher fatality rates than the national average. Per 100,000 Idaho’s number is 11.4 compared to the national number of 7.9”, says Adria Masoner, Health Education Specialist at South Central Public Health District (SCPHD). “We need to raise awareness of the many preventive measures that can be taken to keep our older adults safe.” Older adults in south central Idaho can increase their confidence in not falling by joining one of the six exercise class sites in the following towns: Carey, Eden, Gooding, Oakley, Twin Falls, and Wendell. Carolyn Robison is a class leader in Twin Falls for the Fit and Fall Proof™ exercise program and she sees the value in following steps to prevent falls. She said, “The exercises help me feel stronger and surer of myself and not have fear of falling, and I have noticed participants have become more flexible.” For more information about the classes you can call (208) 678-8221 or for a schedule check SCPHD’s website at phd5.idaho.gov. Every 15 seconds, an older adult is seen in an Emergency Department for a fall-related injury. Falls are the leading cause of both fatal and nonfatal injuries for those aged 65 and over. The chances of falling and having serious injuries from a fall increase with age. This week of awareness provides an opportunity to educate older adults and the community about how to reduce falls risks. One way an older adult can prevent falls is by applying the “Take Control of Your Health: 6 Steps to Prevent a Fall”: 1. Find good balance and an exercise program – look to build balance, strength, and flexibility. 2. Talk to your health care provider – ask for an assessment of your risk of falling. 3. Regularly review your medications with your doctor or pharmacist – make sure side effects aren’t increasing your risk of falling. 4. Get your vision and hearing checked annually, update your eyeglasses – your eyes and ears are key to keeping you on your feet. 5. Keep your home safe – remove tripping hazards, increase lighting, make stairs safe, and install grab bars. 6. Talk to your family members – enlist their support in taking simple steps to stay safe. Falls are not just a senior’s issue.

Do You Love History? Would You Like to Help Preserve Our Heritage?
Over the past few months, the Idaho State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) has been reaching out for feedback. This year, their statewide Preservation Plan ends and they are trying to address what you, Camas County, the public and preservation colleagues, want, need, or desire for the statewide plan. They need Camas County’s help. Currently they only have one response, and would like to have a minimum of five from each of Idaho’s counties. If you can spare 10 minutes of your time and participate in the public input survey, it would be greatly appreciated. Please share this need with your coworkers and colleagues and ask them to help the Idaho State Historic Preservation Office let their voices be heard. https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/IdahoSHPO Contact Jamee Fiore (Jamee.fiore@ishs.idaho.gov) with any questions you may have.
