A lightning strike may have
damaged an emergency services
tower in Douglas about two
months ago.
Otoe County Emergency Management Director Gregg Goebel
showed Otoe County Commissioners Nov. 10 during a meeting
of two of six coaxial cables of the
western radio communications
tower, located on the rail of Douglas' water tower, that appeared to
have been "burnt."
Goebel said a tower crew believes it was hit by lightning, but
what happened to the cables is still
unknown. He said the cables are
"beyond repair."
"We know of two cables that
have been physically damaged
and we have to replace to whole
infrastructure," Goebel said.
As a precautionary measure, he
said six new coaxial cables and
equipment will be replaced on
the tower this week, weather permitting. It's unclear as to the extent of damage that has been
done to the other four cables.

by the EPA and US Corp
of Engineers (CORP)
over Nebraska citizens.
“While NARD supports efforts to protect
water quality and quantity in Nebraska, and
has a proven track
record of cooperation
with local residents
and other agencies to
do so, we believe the
Proposed Rule to have
the federal government more involved
in the daily lives of
Nebraskans will not
result in improved water quality. Rather, it
will only result in significant cost increases
and delays in economic and management activities for
landowners, homeowners, agencies and
businesses.”
Currently, permit requirements take about
18 months to process,
and it is not uncommon for them to cost
up to $100,000 according to Terry Martin, NARD President.
“We believe expanding the CORP permitting authority will only
add to the existing delays and increase the
cost to more individuals and businesses.
Further, under the Proposed Rule there is no
guarantee that after incurring the additional
time delays and financial
cost that individuals or
businesses would be
granted a federal permit to enhance and use
their property.”
Currently, the federal
agencies must prove that
a person needs a federal permit. Under the
Proposed Rule, the burden is shifted to the
landowner to prove a
federal permit is not
needed.
The NARD letter
states, “The Proposed
Rule gives power to the
federal agencies to regulate all water including
groundwater. The federal agencies are proposing to use migration
patterns of plants and
animals to establish the
need for more federal
regulation. Although
federal officials have
claimed that the Proposed Rule is not intended to expand regulation to groundwater,
the definitions used do
not provide that assurance.”
“The federal laws are
clear that land use and
water regulation is reserved to the states to

BROCK’S BEEF
Saying goodbye to
a friend
he year 2014 has
been rough.
T
If saying goodbye to my
grandmother in March wasn't difficult enough, the loss
of one of my best friends – a
brother, really – has put life
in perspective.
I have put off writing this
column for almost two
weeks, as I knew writing
about it would extricate me
from the stage of grief that
hurts the least – denial.
Russell Keith Johnson,
52, passed away on Oct. 29
in Southaven, Miss. His early death was caused by complications from lung cancer.
Eulogizing someone is
difficult when someone is
what we from the south call
"the real deal." Russell, like
my grandmother, was selfless in more ways than I
could ever describe with
impressive adjectives.
He was far from perfect,
and that made his journey
through life so remarkable.
He found an inner joy that
wasn't dictated by external
happiness, and he did it by
cultivating a relationship
with the One he called "The
Great Spirit of the Universe."
Russell knew more about
me than any other person
on Earth. He shared in my
trials and tribulations for
about a decade, and I was
proud to call him a friend.
Of course, he always
thought of us as family, and
he made that clear in no uncertain terms.
Several years ago, he took
me to see Jackson Browne at
the Orpheum Theatre in
Memphis as a birthday present.
I never knew how much
he loved Jackson Browne,
but I left that theatre sharing that love.
After driving back home
to Memphis to attend the
funeral, there was one particular song that I couldn't
get out of my head. This
song, when I break each
lyric down, describes Russell
almost flawlessly. As much
as I want to eulogize my departed brother, his life story is best told through the
immortal genus of Jackson
Browne.

FROM THE GOVERNOR
Honoring our veterans
ebraskans are very
proud of our veterans. Each year
as we celebrate Veterans
Day, it gives us the opportunity to show our respect
for those who serve our
nation.
It is a day to remember
and to recognize the brave
men and women of our
armed forces.
As we observe Veterans
Day, I want to express my
sincere gratitude to our
veterans for their service.
Veterans Day brings an
opportunity to honor and
remember those who have
served our state and our
country in uniform.
It is a day to recognize
the sacrifices of those who
are serving, as well as those
who have served in uniform. It is important to
thank our veterans for their
service.
On behalf of all Ne-
N
GOV. DAVE
HEINEMAN
braskans, I salute the many
heroes who have served
our country for more than
two centuries.
We have not forgotten
the tremendous legacy created by our men and
women in uniform, which
has been passed to those
serving today. Their sacrifices have preserved our
freedoms.
I’ve seen first-hand the
extraordinary respect and
pride the people of Nebraska have for our veterans. This is why I was
proud to sign into law legislation which made the
veteran designation possible.
This law provides for
qualified veterans to register with the Nebraska Department of Veterans Affairs to become eligible for
the designation to be placed
on their license.
The veteran designation
can be added to a driver license or state identification card at the time of renewal with no additional
fee.
The statutorily mandated fee for a replacement license will be required for
persons desiring to add the
designation at other times.
Veterans who want to
register with the Nebraska
Veterans Affairs Office, can
visit www.veterans.nebraska.gov, or by calling or
emailing the Nebraska Veterans Affairs Office.
Once they are on the registry, they can apply to the
Department of Motor Vehicles to have the designation placed on their driver
license or state identification card.
To add the designation
to a driver’s license through
the Nebraska Department
of Motor Vehicles, visit
www.ClickDMV.ne.gov.
The designation can also be
added at any of the driver license stations across the
state.
I know I speak for every
Nebraskan when I say how
very proud we are of our
military personnel and our
veterans.
As we observe Veterans
Day, let us remember to say
thank you to the veterans in
our families, our communities and our state.
We are proud of you.
SEPTEMBER JOURNEY
A Real Beauty
can’t remember a Nebraska fall as beautiful as the one we have
had this year. I recall a lot
of early Novembers when
snow covered the ground
and one particular Nov 11
when our Nebraska was
covered in ice.
The lawns are as green as
early April and many
mums and fall asters are
still hanging on. While the
main color has left the trees,
enough remains to make
every drive one to remember.
Today, we are warned
that all of this is about to
come to an abrupt end. An
Arctic cold front is approaching with all of the
nasty weather that comes
with it. Tomorrow, we are
told falling temperatures
and rain turning to snow
will be here.
I was reminded of the
story of the grasshopper
and the ant as I drove
around Lincoln streets this
morning.
I
PHYLLIS BUELL
Remember the “old days”
when Sunday was a day of
rest and reverence? Well,
today the “ants” were really working hard to get all of
their outdoor work done
before that weather prediction came true. I’m sure
they all went to early
church like I usually do.
The “grasshoppers” were
running a half marathon,
hitting the tennis courts
and pursuing what might
be the last good day for
warm weather activities.
I’ll bet Grandpa’s Woods
and all of the other area golf
courses were full this afternoon.
Honestly, I observed this
on my way to church! I
must confess though that I
overslept this morning. Ordinarily I attend early services at 8:30 but this morning I was glad to make the
11 o’clock second service.
I’m sure the message was
the same but many of the
faces were new to me.
Habit is a strange creature,
isn’t it? I’ll plan to make my
“regular” service next week.
Last night I took care of
my “ant” duties. I got the
grocery cart out of the storage closet, went outside
and unloaded the heavy
things from the back of the
car. There were things I
didn’t need right away and
always meant to have one
of “the kids” carry in for me.
Of course, when someone
was here that could fulfill
those duties, I didn’t think
of it.
Then, I brought in one
last plant I didn’t want to
freeze and considered my
preparations complete.
Surely there will be a nice
afternoon to get those
spring blooming bulbs
planted. That is a true
“grasshopper” way of thinking, isn’t it?
Veteran’s Day is this
Tuesday and Gramercy Hill
has a breakfast to honor
Veterans here and in the
community that would like
to attend. Our grandson,
Clayton Geschke, plans to
attend with me. He served
in Iraq. His paternal grandfather, Maynard Geschke
served in Korea. I want to
introduce Clayton to some
of the men that live here
that served in WWII, Korea and even Viet Nam.
We are grateful to each and
every one for their service
and their sacrifices.
There are many ways to
serve in this old world. My
heart is both proud and a
bit heavy tonight. Our oldest grandson, Lee Buell,
Brianna and their five leave
tomorrow to return to
Haiti.
We pray for their safety
and health in these coming
years.
DIGGING UP ROOTS
A Terrible Deed
hen browsing
through the
scrapbooks at the
Otoe County Museum,
one often comes upon a
story so tragic that we
make assumptions without knowing all the facts.
In this story, I couldn’t
help but think that the reporter made many assumptions without knowing
all the facts, as did those

W
That quote came to mind as
I read the following story:
Young Ralph Van Horne
knocked at the door of the
Abbott home in Unadilla
on Saturday evening, November 6, 1897. When Mrs.
Abbott answered the knock,
he inquired, “Is my baby
here?”
She replied that he was,
and Ralph said, “May I see
him?”
The answer was that she
would have to check first.
You see, Van Horne and his
wife had recently gone
SHIRLEY GILFERT
through a bitter divorce.
Mrs. Van Horne had moved
“lives of quiet desperation.” in with the Abbotts, taking
their three year old little
boy with her. When Mrs.
Abbott delivered Ralph’s request to her, she replied,
“Not unless he brings an
officer with him.”
She had just put the little
boy to bed for the night and
was standing outside the
bedroom door. That remark
seemed to infuriate the boy’s
father and he tried to push
his way into the room where
the little boy lay.
Mrs. Van Horne quickly
tried to enter the bedroom
and close the door behind
her, shouting for him to get
out, but he was not so easily dissuaded.
Before she could close the
door, he placed the barrel of
a revolver in the crack of the
door.
Did he point it at the little boy and fire, as reported
by the newspaper? The
child was struck in the head
and his mother, not realizing
he had been hit, ran screaming from the room because
she thought her ex-husband
was shooting at her.
Meantime, at the sound of
gunfire, Mrs. Abbott ran
into the street shouting that
Van Horne was trying to
kill his wife. Mrs. Van Horne
escaped the house from a
rear door.
Ralph Van Horne appeared to exit from the
kitchen door, apparently
looking for his ex-wife. Then
he re-entered and after a few
minutes exited the front
door, walked to the end of
the sidewalk, exited the gate
and placed his revolver to
his right temple, killing himself instantly.
Of course the area newspapers had a heyday with
the story. It was generally accepted that Van Horne had
gone to that house with the
express purpose of killing his
family. There was no inSee ROOTS, 6

heavy-hand of the federal
government into the daily

said Martin.
“Nebraska has a successful system in place
through the local Natural
Resources
Districts
(NRDs) to allow local citizens to help craft resource
management plans that
have a proven track record
of protecting water and
land resources for current
and future uses.”
“If the federal agencies
desire to assure citizens of
their intention, they should
drop the rule and use clear
language that follows federal laws and federal court
cases that clearly protect
states’ rights on water regulation,” said Martin.
“The NARD encourages
the public to stand up with
the Natural Resources Districts and voice their opposition against the EPA
Water Rule. Go to
www.nrdnet.org for the
link to the EPA to sound off
on the EPA Water Rule.
The NARD official comments on the Proposed
Rule can also be found on
the NARD website.
The NARD is a member
of Common Sense Nebraska, which is a coalition
of organizations and entities that have come together in response to EPA’s
WOTUS rule: a regulatory
proposal that would harm
both rural and urban Nebraskans through expansion of EPA’s powers and
authorities under the federal Clean Water Act. The
coalition’s purpose is to
build awareness and understanding of the EPA
proposal and the adverse
impacts it would have on
Nebraskans.”

until they physically bring
it down and we can put
eyes on it, we don't know
the extent of what the
damage is."
Goebel predicted the
work will be done by the
end of this week.
He said the county has
three towers for emergency services - a west,
an east and a central tower. The western tower is
for emergency services
communications for Burr,
Douglas, Palmyra and
Unadilla.
"So with that tower being down there's no loss of
emergency
services.
They're still able to receive that information
through the central tower,

viously uninsured) 25 million Americans would
sign up for insurance.
However, the reality is
that it has been more like
8 million, and the numbers do not work out favorably for many. According to Forbes, the
yearly increases are significantly higher since
ACA, and the deductibles
are rising.
Brandi Preston with the
Nebraska Healthcare Alliance said, “Delayed implementation of various
aspects of the law are also
impacting costs going into
2015. Many people were
elated to know they could
‘keep their plan’ for an
additional year. The
younger and healthier individuals who ‘did not
need’ comprehensive coverage opted to keep their
plan- as many chronical-
which is in Syracuse, and
through our backup system," he said. "It makes it
inconvenient because if
they get a fire call or a rescue call, they have to send
it out on what we call an
all-tone, and that activates
everything in the county in
one shot. So, unfortunately, if Palmyra gets a
rescue call it pages out
every fire department/rescue squad in the county."
Also during the meeting, Otoe County Roads
lead supervisor Jonathan
Brinkman said all of the
county's signs have been
recorded and each now
have a physical GPS location.
Nelsen asked Brinkman
to develop a record system
for the county's signage, as
far as having employees fill
out a short narrative and
dating when they last saw
signs.
Nelsen said a lawsuit
was filed against Lancaster County earlier this year
from an accident occurring due to a missing sign
and no records being kept
on how long the sign had
been missing. As a precautionary measure for
Otoe County, Nelsen suggested road crew employees keep records of when
signs were last seen.
"I really think that we
need to probably be expanding that a little bit so
that when blade operators are out and they see
that a sign was standing
on this date and they mark
it on a sheet," he said.
Brinkman agreed with
Nelsen and added that
whenever there's a missing
stop sign, workers "have
orders to fix those right
away."
Commissioner Carol
Crook said the public has
a responsibility regarding
the county's signs too.
"Besides our crew being
responsible, our public
needs to be responsible,"
Crook said.
The public is encouraged to report any damaged or missing signs to
the county. People can
contact Brinkman at the
county roads office at
(402) 873-9586 or email
him
at
[email protected], or report findings
at
www.co.otoe.ne.us/.
Brinkman also noted
that an informational
open house public meeting about the proposed
Nebraska City Northwest
project will be Dec. 4 from
6 to 7:30 p.m. at the Girl
Scout Spirit of Nebraska
Catron Camp & Retreat
Center, located at 609 N.
60th Rd. This meeting is
to discuss the replacement
of two functionally obsolete bridges for the preservation of County Road G.
According to the public
meeting notice, this meeting is to inform the public

about the proposed project and to discuss the "potential impacts to the
Cowles Mill Complex and
other environmental features of the area."

ly ill, or previously uninsured enrolled in coverage
and began to file claims.
This was a major contributing factor to the risk
pool being disproportionately sick to healthy.
Premium rates for 2015
will reflect the health of
the ACA-compliant enrollees in 2014 (this does
not 'count' those who kept
their plans as their plans
were not 'ACA-compliant') and unfortunately,
the pool was disproportionately sick to healthy,
meaning insurance costs
will rise for most.”
Previously, 62% had
maternity coverage, 34%
covered substance abuse,
and 18% offered mental
health care. However, under ACA, all policies are
required to provide this
coverage. These are now
built into every policy and
reflected in the premium.
According to Bruce Ramage, director of the Nebraska Department of Insurance, “Under the Af-
fordable Care Act, it appears that resulting health
insurance costs will be increasing for most Nebraskans.”
The government offered
reinsurance and risk corridor funding to reduce
the risk and cost for insurance companies who
offered plans through the
exchange in 2014. That
funding to the insurance
companies will be decreased by 40% in 2015.
The law is constantly
changing due to delays,
repeals, court rulings, etc.
Just last week, the
Supreme Court announced that they would
hear the case regarding
federal subsidies, and it is
likely to be heard in
March 2015.
Challengers argue, as
the law is written, only
those who have insurance
coverage within a STATEBASED exchange are eligible for federal subsidies.
If the Supreme Court
agrees, seven million people in 36 states (who defaulted to the federal exchange - like Nebraska)
will no longer be eligible
for federal subsidies, thus
making coverage unaffordable for many low and
moderate-income individuals and families.

A Sense of Humor
M
ark
Twain
declared,
“Humor is mankind’s greatest
blessing.” Though we often
think of laughter in frivolous
terms, it is indispensable to our
physical and emotional health.
A shared laugh can brighten
anyone’s day. Laughter can draw
us out of our world of problems;
a common sense of humor is
vital to lasting relationships;
speakers use humor to get and
keep our attention. No wonder
there is a lot of “sense” in humor.
Because of our capacity to suffer
deeply, God must have known
we’d need humor as a part of
our lives. As you worship this
week, give God special thanks
for laughter!

Between 2010 and 2030, the population of Nebraskans age 65
and over is expected to grow by 75 percent.
Members of the Nebraska Association of Home
& Community Health Agencies (NAHCHA) are
equipped to deliver skilled, high-quality, costeffective healthcare to our state’s aging citizens in
the comfort and safety of their homes. Home health
agencies help Nebraskans save a significant amount
of money by preventing emergency room stays
and re-hospitalization. Home
healthcare is the most economical
healthcare choice, representing about 10% of institutional costs.
NAHCHA member agencies deliver high-quality, skilled
healthcare to Nebraskans in the safety and comfort of their
homes. Services include: wound care; catheter care; IV therapy;
injections; tube feedings; medication set-up; disease management; care for patients with cardiac, cardiopulmonary and
orthopedic disorders; personal care; and medical social services.
Our members have the training and ability to provide compassionate
patient-centered care that allows you, or your loved ones, to remain
independent at home.
