Reduce stress at Integrated Wellness

Eighty-seven percent of all illness can be directly attributed to some form of stress, according to the National Institute of Health. At INTEGRATED WELLNESS our Quantum Biofeedback devices evaluate more than 11,000 stress and psychological parameters in approximately 5 minutes. Finances, employment, lack of employment, family, nutritional deficiencies, subluxations in the spine, pathogens, electromagnetic energy, genetics and mental factors can all contribute to raising a person's overall stress level. Exposure to toxins in the air we breathe and the food we eat can also add stress.

THORESON: She loves Post Falls

Election time is quickly approaching so I would like share some facts about Kerri Thoreson, an elected official who has stood for the people of her community. I have known Kerri for two and a half years and throughout that time, I have learned that Kerri is much more than a public figure of our surrounding communities; she IS a huge part of our surrounding communities.

SiJohn new casino CEO

WORLEY — Francis SiJohn is the next CEO of the Coeur d'Alene Casino Resort Hotel, announced The Coeur d'Alene Tribe Friday.

GUNS: 'Most sacred liberty'

In response to “Assault Weapons Out” by Turns East in the June 17 Press, your letter to the editor is representative of the ignorance that prevails in our society today. In “mass shootings” involving the deaths of four people or more over the last 30 years in this country, an average of 18 people per year have been killed. By comparison, an average of more than 12,000 people per year are killed by drunk drivers in this country. Yet there is no clamor to ban alcohol, maybe since Prohibition didn’t work the first time?

MILAN: She builds bridges

Kristi Milan will be a welcomed breath of fresh air to the Idaho Senate, running for State Senate Dist. 4. She continues to step up in big ways to share her unique set of honed leadership skills. Kristi has already had proven successful solutions within our regional community.

Play sports to support the arts

Sports are in the air, and on the stage.

To the taxpayers of Kootenai County:

HISTORY: Honor local legacies

My family has lived in Coeur d’Alene since 1936. Unlike many other communities across the country, this community has shown little interest in preserving the buildings of the past. Other towns and cities have used their past and their old buildings to help stimulate their local economy and emphasize their uniqueness. Do we risk becoming a generic town with shining new tin sheds and boxy brick buildings? Such disregard for these ties to our past do have permanent harm to the unity and cohesion of the community. Many of us can remember some of those buildings that were torn down, their unique architecture and how their existence today might fit our present day needs. What is progress? Recently developers have upgraded the Elks and Wiggets, Bravo!

LAWSUIT: And a rally

It was a summer evening 20 years ago. Suddenly a scream: My 16-year-old son’s car had flipped 20 feet in the air and crashed on the country road outside the house I was visiting. Along with my younger son, I rushed to rescue my son and his passenger from the car. Miraculously, neither was seriously injured. My actions were those of any parent to rescue their child from immediate harm.

MALEK: Smart and conservative

In looking at the choices in the upcoming Republican primary race for Legislative District 4 (which encompasses most of the city of Coeur d’Alene), the choice couldn’t be more clear. Luke Malek has already done an excellent job serving the Fourth District. He has fought to bring jobs to our community, keep federal control out of our healthcare system, and protect constitutional rights. He’s not afraid to stand up to political power players in order to represent the people of his district. Luke grew up here, went to school here, knows our issues and people, and has planted his roots here.

DEBT: Heed senators' advice

Stop this hypocritical debate and use some common sense to keep the United States from very soon falling over the cliff in indebtedness, as both our good Idaho Senators are warning us will happen soon.

ADVERTISING: Advertorial — Our sincere thanks

You all will be reading this just before the turn of the year to 2023.

NIC: Routes to success

My friends Trustees Ken Howard and Christie Wood have served long enough to remember what a premiere, nationally-ranked athletic program NIC used to have.
