MY TURN: Warning to potential land donors

In response to the Jan. 11, My Turn column by Mike Aagesen, I would suggest the information he is presenting as “fact,” is easily provable as inaccurate and untrue. He has obviously been fed talking points by the “Professionals” within the Boy Scout Organization, and is accepting information without question of authenticity. With today’s Internet, checking information is easily attainable on most subjects.

Retrofitted bleachers a safety boon for CHS

Booster Club member hopes to continue updates across gym

A few years ago, before the COVID-19 pandemic, Greg Washington realized how difficult it was for some people to scale the bleachers in the old Elmer Jordan Court gym at Coeur d'Alene High School. It was his late mother, Ann Washington, who especially brought this to his attention. He watched her struggle to walk up the bleachers as she found a seat to watch her grandson's wrestling match. “These were up to code at the time they were installed, but now everything is accessible and I can see why," Washington said Monday, standing near the bleachers in the gym.

ADVERTISING: Advertorial — Plantar fasciitis and low-level laser therapy

The most common cause of foot pain, affecting approximately 10 percent of the population, is plantar fasciitis. The plantar fascia is a structure located at the bottom of the heel bone that travels up to the toes. Its main job is to help maintain the arch of the foot. Plantar fasciitis (PF) denotes an inflammation of the plantar tendon, which is a layer of tissue that stretches across the bottom of your foot. When it is inflamed, it can cause a sharp pain under the heel that is worse with the first steps in the morning or after periods of inactivity.

Arthritis is said to effect 46 million people, with 1.3 million of those presenting with Rheumatoid Arthritis — the autoimmune version. Today conventional treatment consists of some pretty harsh drugs that control a degree of the symptoms, with a rash of side effects. But, what if we have more control on the agony of our joints than we originally thought? We do.

Yes, you need a Will, even if you have a Living Trust

For those who want to avoid the court-controlled process that takes place after a person’s death (known as “probate”) — using a Revocable Living Trust is typically the best way to do so. This document allows a married couple or a single individual to direct what shall happen to their assets and possessions. It will also indicate who will be in charge of carrying out those instructions, without the need for the involvement of a probate court judge.
