The Spiritual Life Is Just Like Going On A Bike Ride

By Stan Shipley I’m thinking about getting my bicycle out of the garage and going for a little spin. The sun is shining and riding a bike with a breeze in your face is certainly refreshing. We’ve all done it; it becomes a rite of passage. Being able to ride like the big kids when we were barely able to reach the pedals was huge. Remember when the training wheels were removed and wondering if we would be able to stay upright, be able to turn without spilling over, or remember how to use the brake correctly when needing to stop?

For parents, watching our young learn for themselves how to ride a bike is hard because we know what delight in the ride is ahead ... but bumps in the road will cause crashes Shipley that will leave some scars. Is it possible to tell which parents had a difficult time learning to ride when they were young by observing their children decked out in protective gear? There are helmets,

Correction

shoulder pads, shin guards and steeltoed boots. We understand the desire to protect and hope for a future after biking. Our family had some wonderful times riding together. But thinking about it brings to mind repairing the machines before getting on the road. Often the desire to experience a tour around the block required delay because there were flats to be fixed or a handle bar that had to be straightened before setting out. All that would be fine but where were the tools to do the work? Having a curious and energetic son who gloried in building the unbuildable and fixing the unbroken meant finding him to return the tools to where he had found them so repairs could be made. Finally on the country road the five of us would head in the same direction. We were not necessarily together. It was a little like herding cats. A chain would slip off, or one of

the girls would drag behind because they had trouble figuring out how to change gears. Sometimes one would race ahead impatient with the other slow pokes. Did I mention bicycle seats? Bicycle seats were never intended to give comfort. They serve as an incentive to keep pedaling so you would get back from the trip as soon as possible. But one realizes that they will have to learn how to walk all over again back at home. I’ve seen people, you have too, who never did completely recover after riding on a bad bicycle seat. You can just tell. My desire to bike is lessening as I write this column. The sun has hidden behind the clouds and a wind is shaking naked tree limbs giving warning to any potential riders who would venture out into the elements. Tree leaves don’t wish to come out yet so I believe I’ll just stay inside and work. Can anything of spiritual value come from these scribbles? Does anything about walking and living out one’s faith compare or contrast with bicycling? Think about it. (Shipley is the pastor of Buena First Baptist Church.)

Man Rescued From Car Stuck In Yakima River A Sunnyside man is credited with helping save the life of a Wapato man whose car wound up in the Yakima River. On March 16, at around 6 p.m., Art Gonzalez of Sunnyside was driving on Donald Wapato Road in Wapato. Gonzalez was crossing over the bridge over the Yakima River when he observed a vehicle in the river occupied by at least one person. He immediately called 911, and alerted police with information. He then remained on the scene, while communicating with the occupant of the vehicle from the shore to keep him calm and let him know help was on the way. He stuck around even after police arrived and helped by translating information between the victim and rescue personnel. Because of the information provided by Gonzalez, the Yakima County Swift Water Rescue Team was activated. Some of the team, already on duty, responded directly to the scene, while additional members responded to the Yakima County Sheriff’s Office to retrieve equipment and a boat. They found one male trapped in a white vehicle almost completely submerged in the river. The vehicle, which was approximately 100 feet from shore, had become lodged on the river floor and trapped by the current. The only portion of the vehicle above water was the driver’s side front window. The man in the vehicle was able to crawl out of the driver’s side window and seat himself on the door. Rescuers learned that another passenger had escaped the vehicle, swam ashore and walked away from the scene. This person is yet to be

identified. The team on scene, assisted by the Wapato Police Department, the Washington State Patrol, Yakima County Fire District, Yakima Fire District, Union Gap Fire and Rescue and the Yakima Training Center Fire Department, began formulating a plan to rescue the victim, later identified as Facondo Nicholas Hernandez of Wapato. Simultaneously, the boat teams from the Sheriff’s Office and Yakima Fire were putting into the river upstream. The ground team placed one team member into the river and began rescue attempts using ropes, rafts and life jackets to reach Hernandez. The Yakima County boat team arrived at approximately 6:46 p.m. and was able to maneuver close enough to pull Hernandez into the boat and safely transport him to waiting medical personnel on shore. He was transported to Yakima Regional Hospital where he began receiving treatment for hypothermia. The vehicle was left in the water to be recovered later. No criminal charges were filed. It took just under one hour from when Gonzalez called 911 to the time Hernandez was on the rescue boat. Given the cold temperature of the water (42-44 degrees) and the rapid current, authorities believe that if Gonzalez hadn’t stepped in to help, the outcome could have been much worse. Sgt. Chad Peterschick of the Yakima County Sheriff’s Office stated, “Yakima County is a better place because of citizens like Mr. Gonzalez and the men and women who risked their lives to save Mr. Hernandez.”

How To Find Out If You Need To File Tax Return

By Jim Miller Dear Savvy Senior, What are the IRS income tax filing requirements for seniors this tax season? My income dropped way down when I retired last year, so I’m wondering if I need to even file a tax return this year. Recently Retired Dear Recently, Whether or not you are required to file a federal income tax return this year depends on your gross income, as well as your filing status and age. Your gross income includes all the income you receive that is not exempt from tax, not including Social Security benefits, unless you are married and filing separately. To get a detailed breakdown on federal filing requirements, along with information on taxable and nontaxable income, call the IRS at 800-829-3676 and ask them to mail you a free copy of the “Tax Guide for Seniors” (publication 554), or see irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/ p554.pdf. In the meantime, here’s a rundown of the IRS filing requirements for this tax season. If your gross income from 2013 was lower than the amount listed in your filing status, you probably won’t have to file. But if it’s over, you will. •Single: $10,000 ($11,500 if you’re 65 or older by Jan. 1, 2014). •Married filing jointly: $20,000 ($21,200 if you or your spouse is 65 or older; or $22,400 if you’re both over 65). •Married filing separately: $3,900 at any age. •Head of household: $12,850 ($14,350 if age 65 or older). •Qualifying widow(er) with dependent child: $16,100 ($17,300 if age 65 or older). Special Requirements Be aware that there are some special financial situations that require you to file a tax return, even if your gross income falls below the IRS filing requirement. For example, if you had net earnings from self-em-

ployment in 2013 of $400 or more, or if you owe any special taxes to the IRS such as alternative minimum tax or IRA tax penalties, you’ll probably need to file. To figure this out, the IRS offers a resource on their website called “Do I Need to File a Tax Return?” that asks a series of questions that will help you determine if you’re required to file, or if you should file because you’re due a refund. You can access this page at www.irs.gov/uac/Do-I-Need-to-Filea-Tax-Return%3F, or you can get assistance over the phone by calling the IRS helpline at 800-829-1040. You can also get face-to-face help at a Taxpayer Assistance Center. See irs. gov/localcontacts or call 800-8291040 to locate a center near you. Check Your State Even if you’re not required to file a federal tax return this year, it doesn’t necessarily mean you’re also excused from filing state income taxes. Check with your state tax agency before concluding that you’re in the clear. For links to state and local tax agencies see taxadmin.org — click on “State Agencies/Links” on the menu bar. Tax Prep Assistance If you find that you do need to file a tax return this year, you can get help through the Tax Counseling for the Elderly (or TCE) program. Sponsored by the IRS, TEC provides free tax preparation and counseling to middle and low-income taxpayers, age 60 and older. Call 800-906-9887 to locate a service near you. Also check with AARP, a participant in the TCE program that provides free tax preparation at more than 5,000 sites nationwide. To locate an AARP Tax-Aide site call 888-2277669 or visit aarp.org/findtaxhelp. You don’t have to be an AARP member to use this service. (Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O.

Year Four Of Obamacare: More Delayed Deadlines

By Rep. Doc Hastings As we near the fourth anniversary of President Barack Obama signing his signature health-care law, residents in Central Washington and throughout the country are now feeling the pains and unintended consequences Hastings of Obamacare. Americans now understand what then-Speaker Nancy Pelosi meant when she boasted, “we have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it.” In recent months, even some of the President’s staunchest allies like former Democrat Senator Max Baucus have joined the chorus of discontent — calling Obamacare a “train wreck.” With each passing day, the Obama administration has reluctantly acknowledged the shortcomings of the law by delaying or changing unpopular elements of Obamacare more than

a dozen times. Over the last year, the Obama Administration has: •Signed a bill into law repealing a new federal entitlement program created by the Obamacare law, because it had been deemed financially unworkable. •Announced a one-year delay of the federal health program for individuals with incomes just above the expanded Medicaid threshold. •Announced the insurance marketplaces won’t be able to handle a menu of health plans and restricted employers to offering only a single health plan, even when the law says small businesses can provide employees with a variety of options. •Delayed for one year the law’s requirement that employers provide coverage to workers. •Launched a national health exchange website plagued with malfunctions and security vulnerabilities before it was ready for primetime, forcing the administration to push back the deadline for individuals to purchase health coverage and avoid a penalty.

•Known for at least three years that the high-profiled pledge, “if you like your health insurance, you can keep it” was not true and that millions of Americans would receive cancellation letters for their health insurance under Obamacare. •Allowed states to let individuals keep their policies for another year, after insurers began canceling plans that didn’t meet the law’s requirements. •Delayed the small business exchange for another year. •Extended the original deadline to purchase health coverage three times. •Delayed, for a third time — now until 2016 — the requirement that businesses with 50 or more employees provide coverage. •Announced that individuals with plans that don’t comply with Obamacare could now keep their existing plan until as late as October 2016, avoiding a new round of cancellations right before the 2014 Congressional election. Make no mistake, I have long-believed that government-run healthcare is not the answer and that we

need real health reforms that put patients first, lower costs, and improve patient outcomes. However, one simply doesn’t need to look any further than President Obama’s recent actions to circumvent Congress and pick and choose to delay key parts of the law to determine the law isn’t working. The fact is, in spite of President Obama’s efforts to delay unpopular parts of the law, Obamacare has caused increased costs and loss of health care plans for millions of Americans. House Republicans have remain united in their opposition to Obamacare and have supported over 50 proposals — many with Democrat support — to repeal, defund, or replace this unworkable government-run healthcare program. This year, the House will continue to put forward, with my support, commonsense solutions that will protect the American people from this “train wreck” law and instead focus on patient-centered health reforms. (Hastings, R-Pasco, represents the 4th Congressional District.)

What We Can Learn From High Power Bills In Hawaii

By Don C. Brunell Normally, you wouldn’t think the cost of electricity would clobber ranchers, but in Hawaii, high power rates are the central competitiveness issue. In fact, the owners of the mammoth Parker Ranch Brunell on Hawaii’s big island have calculated their “per cow” electricity costs. Much of the famed ranch’s 130,000 acres is rich grazing land on a high plateau between Hawaii’s twin 13,000-foot volcanoes. Parker Ranch is one of the nation’s largest beef producers, with much of its product sent to the mainland. The

ranch has an extensive water system with large reservoirs, water tanks and troughs, but much of the water must be pumped. That’s where the electricity costs come in. Parker’s electricity cost per calf is $40 per year and rising, compared to $12 for its competitors. Parker runs about 17,000 head of cattle on its ranch, meaning their annual electric bill is about $680,000. In Waimea, the small town where the Parker Ranch is headquartered, the electric bill for the town’s 33bed community hospital was $1.2 million last year, compared to an average $350,000 on the mainland. The Hawaiian Electric Company (HEC) predicts that Hawaiians, who currently pay $160 per month, will pay $300 a month by 2020 and $1,200 per month by 2040 unless things change. In 2009, more than

90 percent of Hawaii’s electricity was generated by imported oil that is then distributed to refineries and power plants on the island chain by boat, barge and truck because, unlike other U.S. states, Hawaii has no pipelines or railroads. Not surprisingly, electricity costs in Hawaii are the nation’s highest, while we enjoy some of the lowest. Today, Hawaii is making a concerted effort to install solar panels and wind turbines, and tap into the volcanoes’ geothermal potential. Even with this emphasis on renewables, HEC reports that, over the next decade, more than half of Hawaii’s electricity will come from oil or perhaps liquefied natural gas, if that is allowed as a replacement fuel. Writing in a local newspaper last fall, Parker Ranch CEO Neil “Dutch” Kuyper noted, “We’ve analyzed the local food and local beef situation and it is clear that success depends on an energy decision. For the ranch, energy is our single most volatile cost and it hinders our ability to be competitive. Energy costs squeeze our margins. We also discovered that increases in energy costs for residents in our region outstrip their incomes and force them to make cutbacks and tradeoffs.” In other words, the price of electricity is getting so high in Hawaii that residents are forced to cut household spending in order to pay their electric bills. What the Parker Ranch is experiencing illustrates the importance of the low cost, abundant, reliable electricity that we are blessed with

in Washington because of our extensive hydroelectric system. Our electricity costs are well below the national average, which keeps our industries and businesses competitive and provides affordable energy to homes, schools and hospitals — and many of our farmers and ranchers pump water to irrigate their land and maintain their livestock. Abundant water and low cost power is our state’s gold nugget. As our elected officials look to the future and work to expand our economy, grow our tax base and create jobs, they need to be mindful that energy costs are a major expense. Unfortunately, we really don’t know the impact of those costs, because in 2008, our government stopped including the cost of food and electricity in the Consumer Price Index. But if you consider what is happening in Hawaii, it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to see that the cost of electricity is a key cost driver for all of us.

Some Words Of Wisdom To The ‘Young And Stupid’

By Karen Helsel My friend sent me this on Facebook: “To be old and wise, you must first be young and stupid.” My query to her was: “But how long does young and stupid last?” I Helsel don’t think I’ve made all the stupid mistakes that I’m going to make, and age just keeps chugging along! I know I’m not alone. From an Albany, N.Y., paper: A 50-year-old Albany man died after he apparently became the victim of booby traps he had set to protect

marijuana plants on his property. He was driving an ATV in the backyard of his property around 2:30 p.m. on a Saturday, when he ran into a fine, nearly invisible wire that was among the fortifications set up around four large marijuana plants. In Jonesboro, Ark.: A car dealer was involved in an ongoing dispute with a former employee, and allegedly owed the employee money. To get out of the debt, the dealer chatted with a hit man about burning down the employee’s house. Problem: He accidentally “invited” him to the conversation with the hit man when he butt-dialed the intended victim, who called the police. These folks are not young and

stupid. Stupid does not have an age limit, nor is it confined to one gender or profession. There is hope, however, because we could all learn something if we wanted to. There’s the problem: motivation. I did not come from a family of intellectuals or even inquisitives. I don’t remember dinner conversations where we talked about learning something new. My father only finished the eighth grade, and spent his life embarrassed by that. When we would encourage him to get a GED or complete a technical school, he refused, but continued to feel ashamed. It took me 30 years to complete my bachelor’s degree, with interruptions for marriage, children, and following my husband’s career.

After I graduated, I missed the mental stimulation of discussion in the classroom. Believe it or not, this was before the Internet was in every home... yes, kids, in the age of the dinosaurs! I would read pop-science and pop-psychology, and became fascinated with new information. I hope I never stop reading, learning, and paying attention. What about you? Is there a topic you’ve always wanted to know more about? Look it up; read a book; talk to an expert in the field. New brain cells may even be generated, and stupid will be kept at bay! Maybe.

The Ag Media Explosion Is A Good Thing For Everyone

By Baxter Black, DVM How does it strike you that the more concentrated agriculture becomes, the more rural/ag media is available? Regional farm, ranch and equine oriented publications are still a very strong part of our print media. Many of them have been around for over 50 years. Local radio ag programming came along and was able to give farmers a daily dose of the market and information news. Granted, with the coming of civilization most metropolitan radio stations pretty much ignore ag-related subjects, but in rural world ag broadcaster still have a place. The latest addition to radio ag programming on a national basis is SiriusXM Ch. 80, RFD rural radio. Ag programming on television has always been regional. The U.S. Farm Report was born in 1975 and became the first real “national” farm program and is still strong. Technology gave us DTN out of Omaha. It was a wireless program you could sign up for and receive news about the weather,

markets and some commentary. Cable and Satellite (Dish and Direct) began in a big way in the ‘90s. They offered channels

network programs that ‘push the envelope’ with coarseness, crudeness, violence, nudity and profanity, the rural media network actually screens every episode of every

that appealed to a specific audience. RFD-TV network was devised to offer exclusive programming for ag and rural lifestyles. Its success and growing availability is due to 24hour programming that is specifically directed to the community of listeners who are interested in collecting tractors, training horses, home cookin’, BBQ, church, raising cattle, the FFA and old country music. Unlike many cable/satellite

program to ensure that it represents family values. It is apolitical, though like the U.S. Farm Report, there are programs that examine and comment on government issues that affect agriculture. RFD-TV and Rural TV are growing steadily as urban people move to the countryside, adopt a rural lifestyle and want to raise livestock, a garden or buy a tractor. Some 15-20 years ago when cable

and satellite companies began to take over the airways, I admit I had a hard time imagining the explosion in ag media that was to come, much less television, that has occurred. After all, the census keeps saying that less than 2 percent of the U.S. population is active in production agriculture. An increasing number of consumers want to know where their food comes from. RFD-TV and U.S. Farm Report are places they can go to meet the people who feed them. It has changed agricultural marketing. Advertisers can now reach a significant number of ag buyers on a national basis. It’s good for everybody. But the most useful and satisfying result of vibrant ag media expansion is that it keeps the ag community in touch with each other. And that is an accomplishment in itself.

If You Want Some Power, Try Using Some Powerlessness

By Dr. Daneen Skube Q. I have some peers in my workplace that drive me crazy. They expect my employees to help them with their projects, tell me what to do, and make promises to customers my team needs to deliver. No matter what I say, they don’t stop. I go to Skube work every day expecting a new battle. How do I get the power to make them back off? A. You can get your peers to back off by using your powerlessness. The central problem is what you are not acknowledging: that you are not the boss of your coworkers. The behaviors you don’t like

about your peers are actually their attempts to boss you around. But you are responding by bossing your peers around right back. The truth is that neither of you is the boss. Instead of getting in deeply entrenched authority struggles with your peers, turn their supervision over to the person who actually has that power - the manager you both report to. Let your boss know the request your peer has made and let the boss tell you what he or she wants you to do. Make certain you keep a neutral stance in what you tell your boss about your peer. No manager is impressed by a grown-up that is whining like a baby about a coworker. Instead, impartially state your peer’s request and what the tradeoff would be if you comply. Then let your boss make the

judgment call. If your boss feels like you keep running to him or her saying the equivalent of, “My brother keeps hitting me,” your boss will decide you and not your peer are the problem. The way a manager will do relationship math is to decide the complaining employee equals the problem employee. Once you have a clear directive from your boss, communicate that decision to your peer. If your peer doesn’t like that idea, graciously remind them that they can talk to the boss about it. Do not gloat or do a victory dance that your boss agrees with you. Remember, all bosses enjoy having their authority respected. Managers appreciate an employee who knows they will ultimately be blamed or

praised for the results of their team. When you encourage your boss to decide how you use your time, your coworker can no longer tussle with you about power. If your coworker ends up fighting with your boss, the good news is you are out of the conflict. The other good news is that people who fight with their bosses generally have shortlived careers in that position. In either case, your quality of work life just improved. At least 50 percent of my time with corporations is solving power struggles between peers. Ironically, nobody in these disputes realizes that neither party has the power to decree the behavior of a peer. (Skube, Ph.D. is an executive coach, trainer, therapist and speaker.)

Lions Club Looks At More Community Service Efforts

By Mike Mayer At the last meeting of the Toppenish Lions Club on March 4, we had a record attendance of 20 Toppenish Lions and only one absentee. It was amazing to see all of our members under the same roof, and we hope to do the same thing in coming weeks. e had four guests in attendance, who were also delivering the program of the evening. The program was “Toppenish City Police Promoting the Explorer Academy in Maple Valley, WA.” Speakers were Kevin Bouchey, Ann Marie and two Toppenish police officers. Yakima County is working with cities to create gang prevention programs. The presentation given to the Lions consisted of targeting 14-to21-year-olds for the Police Explorers Academy.

It’s a popular program to mentor the youth and try to keep them on the straight and center of daily life. The academy is a structured facility that is similar to “boot camp” for youth and young adults after boot camp. It costs about $600 to outfit one applicant. There is a waiting list to participate in the program. The speakers asked for a donation to send at least one person to the academy. We decided to have a more detailed discussion concerning a donation at our next meeting on Tuesday, March 18. In addition to this new business, we also discussed the old business of finding Toppenish businesses that would like flags planted in front of their stores on holidays throughout the year.

Cost is $25 to have Lions Club members place American flags outside a store on holidays like Veterans Day, Memorial Day and the Fourth of July. We also discussed our need to reconstruct barbecue grills, which we use to cook steaks at local events. You may have seen us recently, cooking food at the March 8 Toppenish Chamber Auction and Dinner. Nine Lions volunteered to cook steaks at the event for approximately 250 people. Guys showed up at 4:30 p.m. and fed everyone at 7 p.m. Great steaks and food were had by all. Also, Toppenish Lions Club Scholarships were discussed. We are preparing three $750 scholarships to worthy applicants. But this is not all. We are considering our club’s structure. Not long ago, every member was responsible for a

committee or function. We will continue this discussion, as work progresses on special events, such as the Central Washington Junior Livestock Show, May 5. Mark your calendars for the Livestock Show, as well as the Easter Egg Hunt on April 19, the annual officer installation/camp out/picnic on June 20 and gavel meeting/potluck on June 21. And please wish Lion Luna congratulations for his son, who had a couple of big achievements recently. The boy performed really well at state competition and was also named Mr. Toppenish. Finally, keep Lion Erick Peterson in your thoughts and prayers for healing after having hip surgery last week. (Mayer is a member of Toppenish Lions Club.)

Honeyford Says Budget Has Right Priorities For State In the waning hours of the 2014 legislative session, members of the state Senate — along with the House of Representatives — adopted a supplemental operating budget that will continue to fund state activities. Sen. Jim Honeyford, R-Sunnyside, said he voted in favor of the proposal because it put the right priorities first. “Supplemental budget years aren’t supposed to be another chance for the Legislature to spend more money; they’re meant to deal with emergency situations and make minor corrections to the course set by the biennial budget the previous year,” said Honeyford, who represents the 15th Legislative District. “I’m happy to report that the MCC budget we passed stuck to the basics and provided additional funding only to key areas in need.” The Legislature is required to adopt a biennial operating budget in odd-numbered years; it may pass a supplemental budget in even-numbered years to make

minor corrections to the two-year budget. This was the first time since 2009 the Legislature has started its annual session without facing a budget deficit and the 2014 budget proposal kept the state on that track. Among its many highlights, the supplemental operating budget would: •Extend the freeze on tuition hikes enacted by the Majority Coalition Caucus’ biennial budget passed last year, reaffirming that the state is serious about making it easier for everyone to get a higher education; •Provide for tens of thousands of job opportunities in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) fields; and •Invest millions in other K-12 STEM programs. Honeyford added he was proud to have been able to get the job done on time by passing a bipartisan budget that contained no new taxes.
