MAJOR RICHARD STAR ACT: Please voice your support

How many of you are familiar with The Major Richard Star Act (H.R. 1282/S.344.) This legislation is justified and needed legislation for our medically retired veterans. We should all agree that achieving any budgetary savings by reducing DoD retired pay for combat-injured veterans is an awful injustice.

VETERANS PRESS: The high cost of waiting or not applying for your earned disability benefits

When we solemnly swore our oath in supporting and defending the Constitution of the United States, we didn’t have in our heads the idea that existed the potential to leave military service with fewer abilities had we not entered military service at all.

ADVERTISING: Advertorial — Fragrance Hazards: More than skin deep — Part I

We all want to smell clean and look nice, especially when dressed for a special occasion. However, the fragrances we choose could be hazardous to our health! What?! On a regular basis, we don fragrances in many ways: perfumes, lotions, shampoos, body washes, etc. These are just a few. But, these add up. Accumulative toxins from fragrances could be a key, or at least a puzzle piece, to some of your health issues. Chemical sensitivities in general, are a growing concern, but sometimes what we put on our bodies are the first, most direct source of allergies or sensitivities that we become aware of (think how you feel going through the perfume section of a department store, or walking down the cleaning aisle or pest control isle of a grocery store or hardware store).

PREP ROUNDUP: Norisada shines as Post Falls wins opener

“I’m really proud of how hard our girls played tonight,” Post Falls coach Matt Barkley said. “Lexi Norisada owned the back row tonight, and Lucy Carr and Zuri Blood’s serving kept Sandpoint out of system most of the night. We do have some things to clean up before Thursday night, but I’m very happy about where we’re at after our first match.”

NIC: Community is behind the school

I echo the sentiment made in the recent Coeur d’Alene Press opinion article entitled “NIC: Congrats on the success.” Thank you, President Swayne and staff, for working so hard to keep NIC in the business of educating our future leaders. Increased enrollments reflect community support, which I believe will be crucial to the accreditation process. Evaluators must know that the community is behind the school, in spite of the governance issues with the board of trustees.

NIC: Put needs of community first

Our beloved NIC is rapidly approaching a critical deadline this week. The NWCCU needs the NIC board’s decision on which option they will chose, should accreditation be lost. It’s an enormously important decision. Option No. 1 seems to be the most dangerous…the “teach out” plan. No. 2 seems the obvious choice as regard to what’s best for students, and least disruptive, and allows NIC to “right the ship” so to speak. No. 3 ignores NWCCU’S request, and sounds like a one way ticket to disaster.

RESIDENT OR CITIZEN: Take responsibility seriously

North Idaho has gained many new residents in recent years. The question is: How many citizens have we gained, and what is the difference? Well, anyone with a street or mailing address is a resident. A citizen is one engaged in the community and takes seriously the responsibilities of citizenship.
