ere are two very specific times of the day. When you get up and when you go to bed.
Let’s look at them as the giddy-up and the whoa of the day. Which one you look forward too the most can change with the circumstances of your life. But! Yes, a cover, covered “but.” Which is the best time for you?
Over the years of life we, okay me, I have noticed, I have had times where I just couldn’t hardly wait for the next day to dawn. Giddy-up days. To have your feet hit the floor so you can get out there and accomplish something, or celebrate or create.
ere are also times when I have gotten up just to start the countdown to when I would be able to crawl back under the protection of the covers. Where I could just pull the comforter up over my head and hide from, well actually hide from life. at’s why a comforter is called a comforter. Whoa days.
e object though is to strive for giddy-up and learn from whoa. Just like you do when you learn to ride a horse, or drive a car.
In dark times in my life those whoa times stand out in a blaze. When sick comes home and settles in. Whether it is you that is sick, or you are taking care of someone who is sick. When you just get so sick and tired of the sick. I can’t be the only one who at one or more times, has been making the bed and starts to count the number of hours until the bed is opened up again. Like open arms of comfort you can nearly feel the bed reaching out to take you in. Giving a gentle whoa of a push to all that is happening around you. It’s alright to go through that, you are not alone.
On the other hand. Oh, the giddy-up days of life. When you have something happening in your life that is so amazing that you leap out of bed, if you even went to bed, to meet the day. Graduation? Wedding day? For me, I knew the day my first book, a hold in your hand, real book would arrive and I not only had a hard time falling asleep, I charged into that day like it was made just for me.
e difference between the giddy-up and whoa is so discernable. ere is also magic in the two types of days. Just like if you have ever fallen and broken a bone, sprained an ankle, broken up with the love of your life at the tender age of 15, you will always remember the day. But the sting that a whoa day makes us feel, dulls with time. e elation of the giddy-up days, however, seem to be able to be recalled with all the ta-da they created when they happened.
at is called mercy. Learning that if you fall you will be hurt, but you get up. Whether or not you get up to count the hours until you fall back into bed, or you start to anticipate the next day, and the next. It’s all up to you. Mercy is the understanding that you can show yourself compassion.
So get ye up. Find your giddy-up.
March: Calving, Lambing and Predators
By Trina Machacek
Bringing a new life into the world is an amazing feat. Calving and lambing time is getting its full head of steam up in Eureka County. Just ask any of the ranchers who get up in the middle of the night to go out and check on their animals.
ere is more to keeping the animals safe from the weather. ere is also the fact that as soon as a baby drops, it is fair game to the predators that are ever present.
Coyotes are one of the biggest and prolific threats to the animals. A coyote will hunt in packs and surround a heifer when she is at her most vulnerable, when she is giving birth.
Nevada is still a hunter’s friend. ere are legal coyote hunts held in the spring and some in the fall. e object is not to just kill the animals, but to keep check on the number that grows very prolifically.
e Sportsman Alliance, a group dedicated to keeping the rights of hunters and fishermen as strong as they can be, announced in December:
“e Nevada Legislative Commission approved a coyote hunting contest season earlier this week. is 7-to-5 vote ends a decade-plus-long battle of kicking the can down the road.
Last month, the Nevada Department of Wildlife Commission approved a regulation for the state’s wildlife officials to establish a policy and set regulations for a coyote hunting contest season. is approval was sent to the Legislative Commission, a 12-member panel of state Senators and Assemblymembers that approves regulations when the full legislature is not in session.
Season Dates and Licensing Requirements
e season runs from September 1 to March 31, and participants must hold a trapping or hunting license.”
Hunting has always been part of the make-up of Nevada. e hunters and trappers put innumerable hours into their sport. From coyotes to lions, bobcats to bear and other fur bearing animals. It’s not just a free for all, it’s a way of keeping the checks and balances of animals in alignment.
Below is list of the values for 2026 for the pelts of the animals according to the Nevada Trappers Association. It’s a business. It’s a lifestyle. It’s predator control. It is all those things rolled up in the heritage of Nevada.
TIDDLES-N-BITTLES
e Creeping Crud is Going Around
e Creeping crud is going around. Here are few things that may make the unbearable, bearable.
e flu is a virus. Lysol spray can be your best friend during flu season. Spraying the touchable surfaces in your home with a virus killing spray is highly recommended.
Acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Advil/Motrin) for fever and body aches. Note: Do not give aspirin to children under 18.
Drink plenty of water or juice, and electrolyte liquids, to keep your body hydrated. And take it easy on your tummy. Light meals are best until you get your feet back under yourself.
When to Seek Medical Care: Contact a doctor, especially if you are in a high-risk group (pregnant, 65+, or have underlying conditions). Seek immediate emergency care for difficulty breathing, chest pain, confusion, or severe muscle pain.
Get Your Vehicle in Shape
Now is the time to even get your vehicle in top shape for all you will put it through this summer. Vacation driving, exploring out back country–or even GULP! Teaching your new driver how to drive.

Eureka County EMS Expands Drug Protocols to Strengthen Frontier Care
Eureka County Emergency Medical Services has completed a major update to its drug protocols, expanding the number of medications local crews can administer in the field and strengthening care for patients long before they reach a hospital.
Aer nearly 10 months of work, the updated protocols were approved by the State of Nevada at the end of January 2026. e changes increase the county’s medication count from 12 drugs to 28. e expansion applies to both EMTs and Advanced EMTs and brings local practice more in line with national EMS standards.
For a frontier community like Eureka County, that shi carries real weight.
“Our transport times are roughly an hour to an hour and a half, depending on weather,” EMS Director/ Coordinator Nichole Cooley said. “We’re with our patients for an extended period of time before they reach a higher level of care. ese updates are going to make a huge difference.”
Among the most significant additions is morphine, which can now be administered under medical directive. e change allows crews to better manage pain during long transports, particularly for elderly patients who suffer falls or fractures.
“Keeping our patients comfortable during transport is important,” Nichole said. “With the distances we cover, that matters.”
e updated protocols also include TXA, a medication that helps prevent excessive bleeding in trauma patients or in cases of postpartum hemorrhage. In a county where rollover accidents and long travel distances are common, early intervention can be lifesaving.
Another key addition is atropine, used to treat organophosphate poisoning. Because agricultural chemicals and fertilizers are present in rural areas, the medication provides protection tailored to local risk factors.
e updates also expand what entry-level EMTs can do independently. Basic EMTs can now administer albuterol breathing treatments without waiting for a higherlevel provider to arrive, an especially important change for pediatric patients experiencing respiratory distress.
“If a child is having trouble breathing, every minute counts,” Nikki said.
Eureka County is classified as “frontier medicine,” a designation that goes beyond rural. Crews oen operate far from hospitals and must stabilize patients for extended periods before ground or air transport is available. Even helicopter response times can average 30 to 45 minutes.
In that environment, access to additional medications can dramatically improve outcomes.
e expansion coincides with the arrival of EMS’ new medical director, Dr. Martin Larsen, a Utah-based physician who specializes in Emergency Medicine and also practices in Ely. Dr Larsen’s approach is described as progressive and committed to ensuring local EMS care keeps pace with national standards.
To support the rollout, EMS is conducting a series of required trainings for all EMTs and Advanced EMTs. Classes are scheduled in both the south and north ends of the county through March, with all personnel expected to be trained and signed off by late March.
“It’s a big jump,” Nikki said. “We want to make sure everyone is fully trained and confident.”
Moving forward, the department plans to review and update protocols regularly to avoid long gaps between revisions and to maintain a modern, proactive approach to emergency care.
For residents, the message is simple: Eureka County EMS is investing in stronger, more advanced care close to home.
“We’re working to keep up nationally and be progressive for our frontier medicine,” Nichole said. “at’s what our community deserves.”

Both the bladder and vagina are what we call estrogen dependent tissue. ere are receptors on the cells that respond positively to estrogen. Before menopause when a woman is having normal cycles the first half of the month your body makes estrogen and the tissues have sufficient lubrication. In the midcycle at the time of ovulation when the egg is released the estrogen levels are the highest and there tends to be more discharge at the time. In the later half of the cycle the ovaries produce progesterone and this will cause the tissue to seem dryer and sticky. When the menstrual cycle comes the hormones start over for the next cycle. When a woman goes through menopause (average about 50) both estrogen and progesterone are no longer produced by the ovaries. ey essentially shut down.
Over time both the vagina and the bladder linings thin. e vaginal tissues “dry up” and the bladder loses its elasticity to women begin to get more urgency and increase risk of urinary tract infections. For these women I use an ultralow dose twice weekly tablet or cream placed in the vagina which corrects these problems. e dose is so low and is not absorbed into the blood stream, so it is safe even for women who have been treated for breast cancer. ere is an over-thecounter vaginal cream for lubrication that is also safe called Vagisil which is enriched with hyaluronic acid that lasts about three days. Other vaginal lubricants that are water based are also fine. Never use an oil-based product like petroleum jelly.

Former Palisade Man Killed at Elko, NV
A charge of first-degree murder which calls for the death penalty will be placed against Gohn G. Broiles, crippled Spanish-American war veteran, who yesterday aernoon shot and fatally wounded John Alver, proprietor of the West Hotel here. W.T. Matthew, district attorney, announced today following the coroner’s report of the shooting. Broiles a one-legged man, is said to have gone to the hotel yesterday aernoon about two o’clock and demanded money form Alvero and without waiting for Alvero to answer, whipped out a heavy caliber revolver and fired four shots into the hotel owner’s body.

SPAM is delicious. SPAM calls? Not So Much.
If your phone rings and you do not recognize the number, there is a good chance it is not your neighbor calling to borrow a cup of sugar. It is probably a robocall about your car’s “extended warranty” or a prerecorded scam warning that your Social Security number has been suspended.
Spam calls are not just annoying. ey are relentless. And here in rural Nevada, where we tend to answer the phone because it might actually matter, they can be especially frustrating. e good news is that your phone already has built-in tools to reduce most of these calls. You just have to turn them on.
USE ThE bUilT-in Call bloCKing ToolS
Both iPhone and Android phones include settings designed specifically to silence unknown callers.
on an iPhone: Go to Settings. Tap Phone. Turn on Silence Unknown Callers. is sends numbers that are not in your contacts straight to voicemail. Your phone will not ring, but the caller can still leave a message if it is legitimate. on an android phone: Open the Phone app. Tap the three dots in the upper corner. Go to Settings, then Caller ID and Spam. Turn on Filter Spam Calls. Different Android brands word it slightly differently, but most newer phones include some form of spam filtering.
rEgiSTEr yoUr nUMbEr on ThE Do noT Call liST
A lot of people have already done this. But what most people don’t know is that this protection was not always permanent and needed to be renewed every 5 years. is changed in 2008 to permanent protection. But it’s still a good idea to check your status, especially since this step is simple and free. Go to donotcall.gov and register your number. It only takes a minute. Now, this will not stop scammers who ignore the law, but it does reduce legitimate telemarketing calls. Over time, that makes a noticeable difference.
Do noT EngagE WiTh SUSPiCioUS CallS
is is the part many people get wrong. If you answer and realize it is a robocall, hang up immediately. Do not press a number to “be removed.” Do not speak to a live operator. Even saying “hello” confirms that your number is active.Scammers share and sell active numbers. e more you engage, the more calls you may receive. if you are unsure whether a call is legitimate: Let it go to voicemail. Listen to the message. Call the official number back from a website or statement you trust. Never rely on the number that called you.
ConSiDEr a ThirD ParTy aPP
If spam calls are constant, free apps like Hiya or RoboKiller can add another layer of filtering. ese apps compare incoming calls against large scam databases and block known offenders. You do not have to install extra apps in most cases, but for heavy call volume, they can help. Spam calls are not a sign that you did something wrong. ey are simply a reality of modern technology. e key is not to fight each call individually, but to put systems in place so your phone does the work for you.
A few minutes in your settings today can mean a lot fewer interruptions
