Elkhart Area Career Center’s

firefighting program

has been serving students for 20 years %\ /$85(1 =(8*1(5 $VVRFLDWH (GLWRU For those who aren’t in the profession, firefighting is fascinating. Popular culture celebrates firefighters as heroes, just look at the number of TV shows from “Emergency!” in the early 1970s, to “Chicago Fire,” “9-1-1” and “9-1-1 Lone Star,” all on TV now, not to mention the movie “Backdraft” which came out in 1991. The profession is far more complicated than TV or the movies depict. Young people in the area who think they may be interested in joining the profession, the Elkhart Area Career Center offers a firefighting program letting them learn first hand about the job. The career center’s program was started by Marty McCrindle, shortly after he retired from Goshen Fire Department as a chief fire inspector in 1998. Ray Collins took over the class after McCrindle passed away in 2016. This year Nicole D y e r took

over the program. Dyer worked for Elkhart Fire Department where she was an inspector and handled the arson K-9. There are several career centers around the state that offer a firefighting program, but the Elkhart Area Career Center and Warsaw Area Career Center are the only two in the northern part of the state that offer a firefighting program. Students in the EACC program come from 14-16 feeders schools in Elkhart, St. Joseph and Marshall counties as well as from southern Michigan. Students can go two ways in the program: firefighting or firefighting/EMS. This year, Dyer has 34 students in the program eight of them are girls. “Some are interested in the fire side and some are interested in the EMS program,” Dyer said of her female students. She explained the program mirrors what the Indiana Department of Homeland Security requires of certified firefighters. In addition, students may also earn dual credit from Ivy Tech. Students who complete the class and qualify can take the IDHS fire certification test. Dyer said when coming into the program, students are surprised at how

much they need to know to be a firefighter, from building construction, to some chemistry. “It a lot of memorization,” she said in a phone interview. “A lot of fast critical thinking and it’s fast paced. I’m cramming five college classes in one year for the Fire I class.” Dyer said she loves teaching the passion for firefighting she and her husband have for the profession. Her husband assists her since students must complete their bookwork before they can work on their skills. Between the two of them, they are able to work one on one with their students. Dyer has seen students who take the class go into firefighting, corrections and even police work. “It gives them a step up over other people because they have the certifications already,” she said. Some of those certifications include hazardous material; first responder aware-

ness; mandatory firefighter; technical rescuer awareness; fire investigator; driver operational general; driver operator pumper; public fire and life safety educator I and emergency medical responder. One drawback is while students are able to receive their certifications, they usually graduate high school around age 17-18, when most full-time departments require prospective applicants to be 21. Volunteer departments can take on younger members. Dyer sees this year as a growing year for the program. For next year, she plans to focus on the first year class being primarily book work and skills learning. The first semester of the second year in the program would have students finishing up their Firefighting II requirements and spending their second semester in an internship with an area department.

I have not ruled out flying for Delta or one of the other large passenger corporations.” His training for a commercial license will require 250 hours in the air. “I am guessing it will take me another year and a half. I can take my ground school lessons online.” A commercial pilot has a large responsibility. “We need to take our job seriously. I believe a commercial pilot needs to be relational, since he’s taking people to their destinations. He must inspire confidence and be able to multi task.” Gillispie has other things on his mind besides flying, though.

“I’ve always been interested in airplanes,” stated Hunter Gillispie, Dunlap. “Back in middle school, I wanted to be an air traffic controller. My grandfather always wanted to be a pilot. Since he didn’t become one, he encouraged me to take the training and become a pilot.” Gillispie, a 2017 graduate of Concord High School, tried a semester at Indiana University, South Bend. “I was going for a business major, but decided it wasn’t for me. I then took a couple years off to decide what route of continuing education was right for me. I decided to take flying lessons.” He enrolled in classes at the Goshen Airport under New Horizons Aviation. “In order to get my private pilot’s license, I had to take a written and oral test. I also had to pass a practical flying test under an FAA examiner.” This past summer, Gillispie soloed. “I was flying with my instructor. He had me do a touch-and-go landing. Then he got out of the plane and said, ‘Go and have fun.’ That was the first time I ever flew alone.” Flying solo was scary at first. “I was trained very well. My instincts kicked in and I knew exactly what to do. I did have fun. In fact, it was exhilarating.” Gillispie earned his private pilot’s license. “Now I get to fly for fun and take friends.” But he is far from finished with his training. “My goal is to get my commercial license and get paid for flying. I think I’d like to fly for a private corporation in the area. However,

“I met Brooke Lewandowski in my sophomore year of high school. We’re getting married Oct. 22. We hope to find an apartment or small house in the area.” He also loves his job at Tom Naquin Chevrolet, Elkhart. “I started last February. At first, I was a jack of all trades, helping to run vehicles and shuttle customers. That was during the COVID-19 shutdown. Now I mostly work in the shipping and receiving parts department. It’s a great company filled with good people.” Living in the area, Gillispie feels like he has the best of both worlds. “In the DunlapConcord vicinity, I get a smalltown feel. I’m still close enough to Mishawaka and South Bend to have the best shopping and entertainment possibilities.” He loves the great outdoors. “When I’m not flying, I enjoy anything outside. One of my hobbies is archery.” Gillispie believes this is a great time to become a pilot. “When the COVID-19 virus is under control, airlines and corporations are going to be looking for pilots. The military is also a great organization in which to become a pilot. In this day and age, the possibilities are endless.”

A republic requires an informed and educated citizenship to survive. Sadly, our country apparently does not have that. President Trump, when ﬁrst running for election, said at one of his rallies, “I love the uneducated.” I heard him say it. It is evident why he does when reading many posts in Speak Out. His devotees are easily led sheep — lemmings. Anonymous posts allow people to lie and spread falsehoods, whether by spite or ignorance. The First Amendment to the Constitution protects free speech even anonymous speech. But it

And just like that, the same people who complained about election interference for four years suddenly say election interference isn’t possible?

Dangerous lies

Enjoy your $2,000 U.S. government loan people. That’s right, I said loan, because we will all be paying it back very soon with Biden and the Democrats in charge. Sleepy Joe has promised to undo everything President Trump has worked for, including rolling back Trump’s tax cuts. That will automatically raise your taxes and cost you more money. Biden has promised to issue a 20% carbon tax across the board, which includes gas for your vehicles, natural gas, LP, and essentially anything else that is not electric. With his “COVID relief” bill, Biden is also going to raise minimum wage to $15 per hour, which seems great, but anyone who knows anything about economics will know raising the minimum wage does two things to hurt the economy instead of help.

Smoked Mozzarella

Our most dangerous president of all time has been the subject of three impeachment attempts due to his threat to our nation’s security. Well maybe it’s really about his work on exposing the swamp and all of the money ﬂowing around buying off politicians on both sides which is a big threat to their security. He didn’t need that money and they hate him for it. We’ve had riots, I mean protests, all summer in many cities where businesses have been burned to the ground and rarely any prosecutions. Kamala Harris even donated money for the rioters to post bail in Minnesota and let them go back out to do it again. Where’s the liberal outrage with that? You see, in the liberal mind it’s OK for all this to justify their cause if it’s against conservatives. Now social media sites are silencing their opponents which China and Russia do so we have become exactly what we accuse our foreign enemies of. Classic disgusting liberal logic at it’s best. Dangerous times indeed.

I have a message for all you Trump haters. Get your facts straight and stop spreading the liberal media lies. Every week in ‘the PAPER’ there are Trump haters saying how awful he is and how terrible the country has been under him. But here are the facts. Prior to COVID, under Trump our economy was so good there were seven million more jobs than available workers, most in U.S. history. Under Trump we had the lowest unemployment rate for minorities in the history of the U.S. Trump has protected and secured the border. He has been the only U.S. president in our history to stand up to China. And on and on it goes. Stop all the hate, people.

Just like that

This country will go to hell in a handbasket. Biden is not what you think he is. Trump has done more for this country than any president has ever done. So wake up you liberals, you have another thing coming.

It either causes people to lose their jobs because their employer can’t afford the wages or the employer has to raise the price of their products to the point where people can’t afford them. Because of all this, all of our $2,000 checks will be going right back to the government, and the cost of living will be going up. Congratulations on ruining the economy, Joe!

Well, seems the fake votes are in and we will now have a fake mentally incapable man in the Oval Ofﬁce. His cabinet picks are the who’s who of the top socialists he could ﬁnd. Did he pick them or was he told who to pick by his puppethandlers? And now the Democrats are trying to impeach President Trump yet again? With just days to go? This is nothing less than pure, evil cruelty by a nasty, vindictive Nancy Pelosi. She wants to do this to make sure Donald cannot run in the 2024 election. What are they so afraid of? I would like to see a demand for Joe’s tax records and those of his son, Hunter, as well. The Chinese millions to Joe and Hunter? Too bad the career Republicans don’t have the courage to stand up to the Democrats but all they care about are their career positions and the money that goes with it. Maybe some of them are in on the Chinese money as well.

In comes Biden and the Democrats, out goes our First Amendment freedom of speech. The cancel culture is getting worse and worse every day. After ANTIFA stormed the capitol, Trump got all the blame despite the fact the riots were pre-planned by the far-left extremist group and the riots started before Trump even delivered his speech. Now the Democrats and the liberal media are going to erase President Trump from the history books. We are seeing total censorship, just like China and Russia. Every social media company is banning Trump from their platform. All the major companies are all eliminating any Trump paraphernalia from being sold online. They are even banning the sale of the movie “Home Alone 2” because Trump makes a cameo appearance. AOC is calling for a commission to further sensor the media and make it illegal to tell the truth about the wrongdoings of the Democrats. If that doesn’t outrage you, then you are not a true American. With Biden and Harris in ofﬁce China is going to be pulling our puppet strings. Goodbye First Amendment!

Did you hear about the Nashville bombing on Christmas Day? Of course you didn’t! That’s because none of the media covered it except for FOX. The reason is because no one got killed, and it is because of the cover up that took place. For those of you who don’t know, a van was parked on a street in downtown Nashville and broadcasted a message a bomb was going to go off and everyone should leave. Then it blew up, blasting the surrounding buildings. Here are the facts. AT&T got a contract to do forensic audit on the Dominion voting machines, and those machines were moved to the Nashville building that got bombed. The owner of the AT&T building, William Kennard, is a board member for Cerberus Capital and AT&T. Dominion voting is owned by Cerberus Capital, who is run by Staple Street execs, who was co-founded by Joe Biden’s brother-in-law. The explosion blew up the voting machines and fried the drives for the forensic audit. Nope, nothing to see here, there was no election fraud with the Dominion machines. And nothing is being done to put these criminal Democrats in jail!

Make sense?

doesn’t extend its protection to lies and falsehoods. Anonymous opinions are one thing. Anonymous lies and falsehoods are another. One of the best quotes leading up to Congress’ afﬁrmation of Electoral College votes was from Utah Senator Mitt Romney. He said the best way to respect people is to tell them the truth. Sadly, it hasn’t been spoken by President Trump for the past four years. ‘the PAPER’ would do its readership a service if, like Facebook and Twitter, it pointed out when comments are outright false.

Congratulations America, the devil is coming to America, and you’ve handed him the keys to the nation. With control of the White House, House, and Senate, the Democrats can now virtually do whatever they want with our country. Love your freedom of religion to worship God as you please? Gone. Freedom to say what you want? Gone. Freedom to bear arms? Gone. And it’s already starting. President Trump had his Twitter account deactivated for speaking his mind. All YouTube videos that are pro-Trump or anti-Biden are taken down in censorship. Free college? Free health care? Sure, after your taxes go through the roof. Sleepy Joe promised in his campaign to eliminate fossil fuels and force all cars to go electric. Gas prices will go sky high until you can’t afford it. He promised to put an unconstitutional 40% tax on ﬁrearms and 60% tax on ammunition so most people can’t afford to purchase. Most importantly Joe will pack the Supreme Court with liberal justices so they will uphold all the illegal acts he is going to do. This is how a country dies, and death begins Jan. 20.

I pray more people become aware of this reality. I have been able to join Zoom prayer meetings in December 2020 and early January orga-

Hoosier doctors unite to form the Indiana Physician Coalition An alliance of Indiana physician organizations has come together to advocate for Hoosier patients. Known as the Indiana Physician Coalition, its members include many of the largest medical associations and specialty societies in the state and represent the vast majority of nearly 17,000 practicing physicians and 2,000 medical students in Indiana. Its mission is to educate lawmakers and the public about how physician-led care protects patients from harm, increases access to quality care and helps control health care spending. “Health care teams require leadership, just as teams do in sports,” said Roberto Darroca, MD, president of the Indiana State Medical Association, a member of the coalition. “Physicians bring to the team the highest level of training and preparation, which we use to guide other members of the team to provide the highest quality of care possible for patients.” Why Qualiﬁcations Matter A new physician, either a Doctor of Medicine or Doctor of Os-

teopathic Medicine, accumulates up to 16,000 clinical hours by the time they complete their training. It takes seven to 12 years of preparation for practice, including four years of medical school and three to eight years of residency and fellowship training in a medical or surgical specialty. Still, patients are often confused by the various titles of medical professions. In an independent survey of Indiana residents, the coalition found one out of every four Hoosiers were not conﬁdent the provider who had seen them during the past few years was a physician, rather than an advanced practitioner. Examples of advanced practitioners who may work alongside a physician include a nurse anesthetist, nurse practitioner, nurse midwife, optometrist, pharmacist, physician assistant, podiatrist or psychologist. “Some may think they are receiving care from a physician when, in reality, they are being treated by an advanced practitioner who is not a licensed physician,” said Seung Sim, MD,

Local students named to college dean’s list Albion College announces students who were named to the dean’s list or who were named new Albion College Fellows at the end of the fall 2020 semester. Dean’s list honors recognize students with a minimum 3.5 GPA in four graded courses, while Albion College Fellow is an honor reserved for students who maintain a minimum 3.7 GPA over three consecutive semesters. Goshen student Micah Cross was named a new Albion College Fellow. Cross is majoring in accounting-CPA emphasis with a concentration in the Carl A. Gerstacker Institute for Business and Management. Cross is the child of Myron and Melissa Cross of Goshen and is a graduate of Northridge High School. Goshen student Kaley Holmer was named to the dean’s list. Holmer is majoring in biology with a concentration in environmental studies. Holmer is the child of Karen Miller of Goshen and Thomas Holmer of South Bend, and is a graduate of Goshen High School. Bradley University More than 2,000 students were

named to Bradley University’s fall 2020 dean’s list. To be eligible for the dean’s list, a student must achieve a minimum 3.5 grade point average for the semester on a 4.0 scale. Local students include Abigail Tyler of Elkhart, majoring in health science. University Of Wisconsin-Whitewater Gabby Sponseller from Goshen has made the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater dean’s list for the 2020 fall semester. These students have demonstrated their academic abilities by receiving a grade point average of 3.4 or above in a single semester. Iowa State University More than 11,000 Iowa State University students have been recognized for outstanding academic achievement by being named to the fall semester 2020 dean’s list. Students named to the dean’s list must have earned a grade point average of at least 3.50 on a 4.00 scale while carrying a minimum of 12 credit hours of graded course work. A local student named to this list includes Quinten A. Hunsberger, Wakarusa.

Shooting range hours change for January and February Through February, all shooting ranges operated by the DNR Division of Fish & Wildlife will operate under adjusted hours. During this period, the ranges at the following ﬁsh and wildlife areas will be open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Eastern Standard Time or 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Central Time Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, depending on their location: Crosley, Deer Creek, J.E. Roush Lake, Jasper-Pulaski, Kingsbury, Pigeon River, Sugar Ridge, Tri-County, Wilbur Wright and Winamac. Regular shooting range hours will resume March 1.

Archery ranges at these properties remain open daily from sunrise to sunset. The Division of Fish & Wildlife strives to provide clean, safe shooting ranges, with most of them being free to the public. These ranges are staffed by trained range safety ofﬁcers during all operating hours, making them a perfect place to develop skills with a new gun or sight in the ﬁrearm to prepare for that next hunting adventure. For more information on shooting range hours, visit wildlife. IN.gov/3648.htm.

immediate past president of the Indiana Society of Anesthesiologists. “Every Hoosier deserves to have physician-led care. Quality matters!” What gets even more confusing is when such practitioners introduce themselves as “doctors,” even though they did not attend medical school. For example, a nurse practitioner who obtains a doctorate degree. “There is no doubt that all of our colleagues play a vital role in the health care workforce, each according to their training,” said Lauren Stanley, MD, president of Indiana’s chapter of the American College of Emergency Physicians. “I work closely with APRNs every day and rely on them to help care for my patients in the

emergency department. However, a physician-led care team model is still vital for high-quality patient care, given the skills and experience of a physician. We’re not interchangeable.” Hoosiers Trust Indiana Physicians In its statewide survey, the coalition also found patients in Indiana prefer their health care is led by a physician. More than three out of four Hoosiers over the age of 40 feel that physicians should have primary responsibility for leading and coordinating their health care. Other ﬁndings include: • 83% of Hoosiers believe physicians and nurse practitioners need to work in a coordinated manner to ensure that patients

get the care they need. • 76% of Hoosiers believe in the event of a medical complication or emergency, a physician’s education and training are necessary to ensure patient safety. • 73% of Hoosiers believe nurse practitioners treating patients with one or more chronic diseases should be overseen by physicians. “At the end of the day, the quality of your health care really depends on the qualiﬁcations of the professional leading your medical team,” added Stanley. “That’s why Hoosiers want to know that the person responsible for their health care has the necessary education and training to help them make the best decisions.” Anyone interested in learning more can visit INphysicians.org.

priority. It serves as a reminder to continue our efforts to reunite missing children with their families and loved ones. It also serves as an occasion to honor those who are dedicated to this very noble cause. The National Missing Children’s Poster Contest provides an opportunity for schools, law enforcement and parents/guardians to discuss and promote child safety. The state winner will receive a national award certificate from the U.S. Department of Justice and their poster will be selected to go to the national judging competition. The national winner, along with his/her parents and teacher, and the state manager will be invited to Washington, D.C., to participate in the U.S. Department of Justice’s National Missing Children’s Day ceremony.

Digitally produced images, collages, cut-outs and stamping will not be eligible for consideration.

• The ﬁnished poster MUST measure 8 ½ inches X 14 inches. • The poster must be submitted with a completed application, which includes a description of the poster and a brief biography of the artist. • All poster contest rules can be found at ncjtc-static.fvtc.edu/ Resources/RS00005796.pdf.

Managing your woodlands can pay dividends %\ -()) %85%5,1. ([WHQVLRQ (GXFDWRU 3XUGXH ([WHQVLRQ (ONKDUW &RXQW\ When Indiana was settled, more than 90% of the land was in forest. The settlers methodically cleared most of that timber, leaving less than 300 acres of original old growth forest in the whole state. As people began to cultivate that newly cleared land, it became clear some of it was going to be difﬁcult to farm because of drainage issues. Most of the woodlands we have in northern Indiana today is land that was

cleared, and then allowed to grow back into forest because it was too wet to farm. That history sets us up for thinking woodlands are not a valuable asset on our farms. And in some ways, that is true, if the asset is not managed. It does not have to be that way. Since most people do not possess the knowledge to manage a woodland, it is usually wise to get some expert advice on the management. There are two avenues to go. The state of Indiana has district foresters employed by IDNR who can advise landowners and there are professional

foresters who you hire. There are advantages and disadvantages for both options. The district foresters are spread quite thin, and it may take a while to get them to visit your site. Professional foresters are paid consultants, so there are fees, but the response is generally quicker. The big advantage of having expertise help you with a forest management plan is these folks know the markets, who is buying various sorts of timber, and what those prices are. They also can help you decide which trees to keep, and which trees to cull,

which can vastly improve the quality and quantity of the valuable timber in your woodlot. As an example, a few years after emerald ash borer arrived in the area, a local landowner hired a consultant to assist with the ash trees on some lowlands, before they were all destroyed by the borer. The consultant helped inventory the trees to be sold, sent invitations to buyers to view the site and conducted a sale. The ﬁrst bids came in low, but the consultant continued to speak to the buyers and the ﬁnal bid was three times the

initial bid. Simply put, the increase in the bid price easily covered the fee charged by the consultant. On top of that, the consultant helped the seller and buyer reach agreements on how the timber would be removed, where the trees would be yarded, and how debris would be handled in an effect to minimize the amount of damage to the remaining trees.

Did you know doctors can prescribe a medication to treat a condition the medication is not approved to treat? This legal and common practice is known as off-label prescribing. Taking an off-label drug in many cases can be beneﬁcial but is not without risks. Find out if your prescriptions are off-label and what questions you should ask. Off-label prescribing is the legal use of drugs to treat a condition or disease not speciﬁed on the FDAapproved packaging label or medication insert. The medication insert

(the sheet that is typically stapled to your medication bag) contains information about warnings, side effects, and usage which lists the disease or condition the drug is approved to treat. According to the FDA, about 20% of prescribed medications are offlabel. One off-label use is when chemotherapy drugs approved to treat a speciﬁc type of cancer are also used to target other cancers. Another is antidepressants prescribed for chronic pain. A third example is when a drug is approved as a treatment in one form such as a capsule but provided in another such as an oral solution. There are a variety of reasons why a doctor may prescribe an offlabel medication to their patient.

One reason is there might not be a FDA-approved drug to treat that speciﬁc disease or medical condition. Last year, due to the lack of effective treatment, the malaria drug hydroxychloroquine was used off-label to treat COVID-19. One look at the medication insert for hydroxychloroquine and aside from the long list of potential side effects and recommended precautions, you will see its approved usage does not include COVID-19. Also, the FDA has warned the drug is unlikely to be effective in treating COVID-19. Another reason a patient may be prescribed an off-label drug is when approved treatments for a condition have been unsuccessful or inaccessible. Using an off-label medication

is an alternative that could beneﬁt the patient. The drug approval process is often lengthy and expensive. Seeking further uses for a drug may not be within the manufacturer’s interest if their drug is already out on the market. As required by law, for a drug to be FDA-approved, the drug company must submit clinical data to the FDA to review showing the drug is safe and effective. Keep in mind “safe” refers to the beneﬁts of using a drug for a particular use outweighing the potential risks. It does not mean the drug does not have side effects. Off-label medications can provide patients with improved care when a drug may not be available to treat a condition. Talk to your

doctor if you are curious about offlabel use or have concerns about your medications. Most physicians and pharmacists are happy to answer your questions. You may want to ask: • What is the medication approved for? • Are there other drugs or therapies that are approved to treat my condition? • What research is there to support the use of this drug to treat my condition? • What are the beneﬁts or side effects of off-label treatment? • Will my health insurance cover this medication for this condition?
