Workplace costs from illness or injury
Illness and injuries cost more than just medical bills. Costs to employee, employer, family and social life too. The costs of lost productivity, errors, loss of quality of work, goods or services, management interventions, co-worker or employer dissatisfaction, etc. results in billions of dollars every year!
Obstructive sleep apnea and glaucoma
Hokkaido University in Japan has a group of scientists who have studied the relationship between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and glaucoma, and they have found that there can be damage to the optic nerve in patients with OSA. But the interesting thing is that the lack of oxygen due to the OSA does not cause a brief sharp increase in eye pressure. Therefore, these patients with glaucoma have normal eye pressures.

KAHN: Been there, done that
Do you remember the excitement of your first day of school? Did you have a favorite teacher or make a best friend who is still there for you? What about recognition for perfect attendance or being given an exciting assignment centered around your hobby or interest? These are experiences common to public school education.
First day of school
“Banana and bubblegum please,” announces Quin, my youngest granddaughter when asked what type of flavoring should top her shaved ice. I ask for grape and pink lemonade as the line behind us lengthens waiting for Rory to decide. “Grape and blueberry,” Quin’s big sister decides with a smile in anticipation of the cold refreshment on this hot summer day. Both girls, cooled by the ice beg, “Can we ride the rides now?” It’s fair time in North Idaho.

Over the weekend there were stars and fireworks in the sky but I’m thinking there might have been a figurative giant light bulb, too. What with Nick Smoot’s third annual Think Big Festival attracting an eclectic and enthusiastic group of entrepreneurs in the tech fields and the Spokane chapter of the American Advertising Federation’s second annual collective campout, Think Outside, at Camp Sweyolakan — that’s quite a creative brain trust in our little corner of the world thinking big and thinking outside.

How accurate is Old Farmer's Almanac?
Weather or Not
It’s been brought to my attention from a number of weather enthusiasts and readers about the recent prediction from the original Old Farmer’s Almanac. Their winter forecast calls for snowier and milder than normal for us residents in North Idaho and surrounding regions. They also foresee snowy weather for much of the extreme northern U.S. with drier than normal conditions across the rest of the West, most of the central U.S. and parts of the Southeast. This would mean that drought conditions in California will continue.

STRANDED: Bad job, Press
Shame on the Coeur d’Alene Press for misusing the front page of the paper to unjustly vilify the Kootenai County Sheriff’s Office. The initial, poorly reported article about the stranded boaters on Lake Coeur d’Alene printed on Saturday, Aug. 20 raised more questions than it answered. The paper crassly abused the relative inexperience of the 20-year-old boater to create an attention grabbing headline in order to sell papers whilst maligning the KCSO. Why were so many pertinent details omitted from the original story? Why was there no comment from the parents on board who presumably have more experience? Even if the staff writer lacks the sagacity to ask such basic questions of the boaters, as editor, surely you should know better.
STRANDED: Check this list
Trisha Bowlin let a couple of items off of needed items for boat owners to carry. She forgot to mention life vest (1 per person in the boat), a noise signaling device (whistle, canister air horn, etc.). Just these to items would have prevented serious injury more than likely. I can’t believe this family were the only boat on the lake and therefore a noise device would have been useful in alerting others around them of their predicament. Boating law states you MUST RENDER AID TO ANY VESSEL IN DISTRESS. Failure to do so is a punishable offense.

County, this is no time for a meltdown
Well, it’s that time of year again here in Kootenai County. City and county governments have had the mold cast for their respective budgets and are now just waiting for public hearings before another year of government starts to take life again on Oct. 1. Not surprisingly, many people like me are not happy that taxes are going to go up. Many, if not most, public officials are straining under the weight of public pressure concerning their budget decisions while continuing to provide the services that the public demands. Kootenai County officials feel that pressure as well.
Health and fitness technology
Technology is a blessing and a curse — most of you would likely agree with this idea. From a health and fitness perspective, technology can be a blessing giving you tools and motivation to track your progress to a healthier life. Technology can also be a curse, delivering limited accuracy in the metrics it provides, distracting you from quality life moments with loved ones, and it becomes an intrusive crutch distracting you from day-to-day tasks.

Instead, this party has shifted to reflect extreme and frankly offensive views of what American conservatism is that have been perpetuated through fear mongering in the media.

AUTHOR: Can't answer question

Trump may be flawed, but Hillary may be lethal
I have been reading the series of articles on Donald Trump written by Uyless Black. I am impressed by Mr. Black’s approach to the subject matter at hand. His assessment of this candidate is pretty much in line with what most people in this country think. Mr. Trump does indeed display strong narcissistic traits as described by Mr. Black. It is difficult, if not impossible, to imagine those traits on display in the situation room of the White House.

So I headed to town to get a boat to tow them to the boat launch at Higgins Point.

You loved righteousness and mercy, yet you also demanded justice. You became the peace keeper of the world, helping others to achieve liberty as well. You paid the price for liberty in the blood of brave, noble warriors fighting for your ideals. You shared your wealth with the poor of the world. You truly were “One nation, under God.”

When pain is a pain
Nobody likes pain, but without this important communication tool, we’d be in big trouble. Pain is an alert system letting us know that something is wrong. Whether it is warning us that we are touching a hot stove and will get burned, or an organ that is in trouble sending out its red flag telling us there is some internal threat going on that needs attention, we’d best heed the warning. But when it is unrelenting, it can be a pain to have pain because it inhibits us in our life.

These people who, in 2,000 years of almost complete isolation, seemed to have evolved a way of living, eating, thinking and exercising that has substantially lengthened their life-span and dramatically reduced their susceptibility to most of the illnesses to which “civilized” people are prone. With their methods of agriculture and soil conservation, their population enjoyed a high percentage of people living to the healthy age of 110-120 years. Some have been reputed to live to 140 years. Women commonly bear children at 50 years of age and men are working in the fields at 90 to 100 years old. Age is highly respected within the Hunzakuts. Young people look up to the senior citizens for their experience. The respect for elders is instilled in children at a very early age.
STRANDED: Event review needed
After reading “Stranded,” my wife and I felt alarmed by the experience of the Krous family on Lake Coeur d’Alene, and appalled by the 911 dispatcher’s reported crass and indifferent responses to their plight. The dispatcher’s responses, besides being rude, projected a level of indifference for human life that should automatically disqualify him/her from serving in that position.
Wine and Rock & Roll
A couple of months back I was having a conversation in the shop with one of our customers, Steve. He is a fascinating guy, always has a smile on his face, always seems like he doesn’t have a care in the world even when he does. In addition to his day job, he also plays the drums with a couple of local bands. Steve seems to me to have a pretty darn good command of music and I know he loves wine, in fact the license plate on his truck is “wine”.

Fueling for optimization
When you are a competitive athlete, highly trained and highly motivated like everyone else in your event, what can push you beyond your competitors is diet. According to Leslie Bonci, MPH, RD, CSSD, LDN, sports nutritionist for the Pittsburgh Pirates, Toronto Blue Jays and Kansas City Chiefs, nutrition can make a good athlete great or a great athlete good. Athletes spend a lot of time on their external equipment—helmet, pads, shoes, uniforms, gloves etc., but they don’t spend enough time on the internal equipment that keeps players on the field not on the bench. That internal equipment is what they eat.

Your TMJ and snoring
Snoring is a major symptom of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). And when daytime tiredness is also present with snoring OSA is almost guaranteed to be present. For a person who has OSA, breathing stops for periods of 10 seconds or longer repeatedly during the night. This interrupts the normal progression of sleep through the five stages of sleep. If the interruptions happen five times or more per hour, the patient is diagnosed with OSA. Many people don’t know that these interruptions occur and last as long as a minute and a half.

Government occasionally thinks of a brilliant idea, talks it up, and then enacts legislation, sending it on its way like a proud parent watching a child riding his bike for the first time.

Trump not alone on big narcissism stage
For the second article in this series, it will be helpful in our analysis of Trump’s narcissism to compare his behavior to a former U.S. President who was noted for his narcissism: Theodore (Teddy) Roosevelt. This man was vain, self-important, egoistic, and bombastic. His narcissism is rated second in the Pew study (see Tuesday’s article). Roosevelt loved slaughtering bison and other vulnerable critters on a mass scale, once bragging that a “beast” he had wounded (a rhinoceros) that was charging him had “meant mischief.” Meant mischief? Yes, after being ambushed with a gun, most creatures would react with “mischief.” Like many vain-glorious people, Teddy often looked at situations only from his point of view.

And what does this mean to in terms of the Fair and its financial soundness? Let’s take a look:

REFORM: Thanks, but no thanks
I have been hearing the word “reform” so much lately — it appears to be a favorite of liberals and the far left and I suspect, most Democrats are OK with it. It seems to have started about eight years ago. I believe Barrack Hussein Obama used it heavily in his first campaign and it was very effective — he became president — and our country and the world changed in a way that we could never envision, even in our worst nightmares. Now as I listen to Hillary and Bernie — again — it is all about “reforming” our country — the rich have become even richer and the poor are “entitled” (where did that word ever come from? Must have been a liberal — they use it a lot!) to some of that wealth. Never mind that most of those rich folks have been working their tails off — for forever. And never mind that the top 20 percent already pay about 80 percent of all taxes and the bottom 50 percent pay no taxes at all and are recipients of much of that taxed income. I’ve got news for President Obama, Hillary and Bernie — they are right, the rich are NOT paying their fair share — they are paying FAR MORE than their fair share. How about letting some of that 50 percent have a little skin in the game. Then maybe all of this free stuff would come partially out of their pockets and not all out of mine! Oh, I know, I didn’t really earn it anyway. Someone else did it for me!
