CHI Health St. Mary's is one of the five facilities that Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Nebraska members will be able to pay in-network copay, deductible and coinsurance. The other facilities are: Good Samaritan Hospital in Kearney, Saint Francis Medical Center in Grand Island, CHI Health Schuyler and CHI Health Plainview. BCBSNE Senior Vice President Pat Bourne said these are basically "one-hospital" communities. BCBSNE also announced that it will also pay for covered medical services at the facilities before CHI Health ended its contract with the insurance company Sept. 1. "At the end of the day we recognize that this is a hardship on our members," Bourne said. "So that was foremost on our mind … how do we alleviate that?" "We hope this eases the transition for our members," BCBSNE Senior Vice President Lee Handke said. "We made the decision to fix the problem on behalf of our members in those communities."

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. "The issue is its just safer to replace it all and put an all new infrastructure in than to take the chance of replacing two and having two others or four others go bad later," he said. "So 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.

Kimmel Harding Nelson Center for the Arts presents ‘Converging Matrices’ The Kimmel Harding Nelson Center for the Arts presents a new exhibition, “Converging Matrices: Artworks of Shea Wilkinson and Travis Apel” continuing through Dec. 18. “Converging Matrices” features the work of two Omaha-based artists, Shea Wilkinson and Travis Apel. The exhibition title points to themes of algebraic symbols, cosmic biology and intercellular webs—descriptions that strongly unite both artists’ works. The Kimmel Harding Nelson Center for the Arts is located at 801 Third Corso in Nebraska City.

According to a BCBSNE press release, CHI Health was removed from the BCBSNE network Sept. 1 because its costs were 10 to 30 percent higher for hospital and physician services in Omaha.

Governor John Nelson recently announced the release of a state broadband plan. Broadband in Nebraska: Current Landscape and Recommendations lays out a vision for broadband in Nebraska, sets goals and makes recommendations to further broadband development in Nebraska. “Broadband is important to Nebraska’s businesses and communities,” said Lt. Governor Nelson, who chairs the Nebraska Information Technology Commission. “This plan builds on Nebraska’s successes in stimulating investment in Nebraska’s telecommunications infrastructure and encouraging the use of broadband in businesses, agriculture, health care, education, libraries, local government, and public safety entities. Additionally, the plan highlights the need to encourage more youth to pursue careers in information technology.” Broadband availability in Nebraska has improved over the past three years with 99.5 percent of Nebraskans now having access to service with download speeds of greater than 10 Mbps. Household adoption of broadband has also increased to 82 percent of Nebraska households subscribing to broadband. Mobile connections are becoming increasingly important to residents and businesses with more than 80 percent of Nebraska businesses currently using smart phone technology. The plan sets goals for broadband availability and adoption for 2020, including having broadband service of 25 Mbps down available to 90 percent of Nebraska households and having more than 90 percent of Nebraska households subscribe to broadband. In 2013, the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, and an international broadband expert company, conducted a survey of Nebraska businesses on their use of the Internet. Respondents to the survey indicated that 25% to 45% of revenue from the Internet. Information on the survey is available at http://broadband.nebraska.gov/broadband-businesssurvey. “Broadband has been a notable factor in Nebraska’s economic growth with more than 60 percent of Nebraska businesses selling goods and services online,” said Lt. Governor Nelson. “The continued development of Nebraska’s telecommunications infrastructure is vital to Nebraska’s future.” Additionally, the plan includes 10 recommendations: Encourage investment in Nebraska’s telecommunications infrastructure; Enhance the capacity of local communities to address broadband development; Encourage the development of a skilled IT workforce; Support innovation and entrepreneurship; Support the use of broadband technologies in businesses and agriculture; Support the development of libraries as community anchor institutions; Support the use of broadband in education and health care; Support the use of broadband by government and public safety entities; Support efforts to attract new residents and retain youth; and Increase digital literacy and broadband access to the Internet. Brenda Decker, the Chief Information Officer for Nebraska, added, “Broadband is an important component to the overall success of Nebraska. By continuing to deploy broadband and utilize new technology, Nebraska continues to experience great successes in a vast array of areas that positively impact the lives of our citizens.” The development of a state broadband plan is the culmination of a five-year broadband mapping and planning initiative funded by the National Telecommunications and Information Administration. Partners in the Nebraska Broadband Initiative include the Nebraska Information Technology Commission, Nebraska Public Service Commission, University of Nebraska-Lincoln, Nebraska Department of Economic Development, and AIM. The plan is available from the Nebraska Information Technology Commission’s w e b s i t e (http://www.nitc.ne.gov/new s /c o m m u n i t y / b r o a d band_plan.html). Broadband in Nebraska, a video produced by the University of Nebraska, highlights the findings of the plan and is available on YouTube. The Nebraska Information Technology Commission is a state commission whose members work to promote the use of information technology in education, health care, economic development, and all levels of government services to improve the quality of life of all Nebraskans. ent Jeffrey Edwards announced at the Nov. 10 NCPS School Board meeting that Harding & Shultz P.C., L.L.O., attorney Karen Haase of Lincoln will discuss topics such as cyber bullying and proper use of social media. Haase specializes in educational law. "We booked this about three months ago," Edwards said. "We're not bringing her in in response to anything. We've had this planned for quite awhile. We expect to hopefully have a full auditorium." Edwards said that middle school and high school students and NCPS staff will attend the digital citizenship presentation earlier that day. Hayward Elementary School principal Scot Davis said beginning Nov. 17, students be participating in the Henry Doorly Zoo reading challenge, as they have for the past few years. Davis said the goal is to get each student to read 100 books by the time the competition ends on March 2. "Every year we've increased just dramatically with the number of books our students read," Davis said. "Last year we actually got a phone call from the zoo saying we got fifth place in the state of Nebraska. So we're going for No. 1." The prize for winning the competition is a free trip to the zoo. Davis added the school does provide little incentives for students who've participated in the competition. Last year, students were able to throw a pie in a teacher's face. "Of course we do it for the fun of reading to inspire kids to read," he said. Davis said the second quarter of the after-school program, Pioneer Learning Center, is still running strong. "We're still averaging a good strong 67 kids Monday through Thursday. That's a good number," he said. There are many activities available for students at the after-school program, such as Christmas ornament decorating, dodgeball and board and strategy games. "Kids are enjoying themselves and it's going really well," Nebraska City Middle School principal Craig Taylor announced that a group of students on the robotics team went to the University of Nebraska Nov. 10 and worked with oth- STUDY Continued from Page 1 fessor in the UNMC Department of Neurological Sciences and the lead investigator on the clinical trial at UNMC. “We are proud to take part in this important study to evaluate a treatment that may contribute to changing the game for people suffering with AD and their families in the future, and to advance the research around breakthrough therapy options for Alzheimer’s disease.” AD develops when nerve cells in the brain no longer function normally, causing a change in one’s memory, behavior and ability to think clearly. The NOBLE study will explore the potential of T-817MA, a neuroprotectant agent designed to protect against neuron loss. Neuroprotectants are used for many central nervous system disorders including stroke and Parkinson’s disease. During the mild-to-moderate stage, people with AD begin to show significant decline in cognitive function, from forgetfulness about one’s personal history and becoming moody and withdrawn in social situations to an inabil- er robotics teams to dismantle a super computer. Taylor also informed the board of the Holiday Concert coming up, featuring the sixth-, seventh- and eighthgrade choirs and bands. The sixthgrade choir and band will have their concert Dec. 2, the seventh- and eighth-grade bands will perform Dec. 4 and the seventh- and eighth-grade choirs will perform Dec. 9. Northside Elementary School principal Tony Little said preschool parent-teacher conferences were scheduled this year, and that attendance for the school's conferences at the end of October was a little lower than normal. "We had just under 90 percent," he said. "For us we usually hit mid- to low-90s. Even the teachers commented that it was down a little bit from what we normally get," he said. NCHS Student Council representatives Maria Andrade, Marissa Rutledge and Freddy Cortez discussed happenings in the high school: ■ Two students were selected to AllState Choir, which is next week; ■ Five students toured the University of Nebraska-Omaha's College of Business; ■ A Family Career and Community Leaders of America sophomore member has been chosen as the District 1 president and will be running for state office in April. ■ Leadership Cadre visited Peru State College a week ago; ■ The Veterans Day programs taking place at the high school; ■ And a National Honor Society Blood Drive that took place Nov. 13. Later in the meeting, the board appointed board member Kent Blum to the Nebraska City Recreation Agency. "Because the half-cent sales tax was approved last week by voters, that in effect puts the interlocal agreement with the city and the school district in play and the first step there is in establishing what they're calling the Nebraska City Recreation Agency," Edwards said. Edwards also announced the Educators Health Alliance premium rates for the Blue Cross Blue Shield of Nebraska health care plan will increase 1.9 percent Sept. 1, 2015. According to a press release, BCBSNE is used by nearly every school district in Nebraska. The release said the 2015-16 plan year marks the 13th consecutive year rate increases have been less than 10 percent. ity to identify the day of the week or where they are. As a result of this decline, sufferers with mild-to-moderate AD often require round the clock care. In consultation with family caregivers, UNMC clinicians are now seeking eligible candidates for NOBLE. Potential volunteers should live with or be in regular contact with a partner or family caregiver who can assist with their consideration of participation and accompany them to study visits. UNMC is one of 50 centers nationally which will participate in the NOBLE Study. The study is sponsored by Toyama Chemical Co., Ltd., FUJIFILM Group, makers of T-817MA, and is being conducted by the Alzheimer’s Disease Cooperative Study (ADCS), the largest Alzheimer’s disease therapeutic research consortium in the United States. To be eligible to participate, people must be between 55 and 85 with mildto-moderate Alzheimer’s disease, have been taking donepezil (Aricept®) for at least 6 months, and have a study partner who has regular contact with the candidate and is able to attend study visits.

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. The public is encouraged to report any damaged or missing signs to Brinkman at (402) 873-9586 or email [email protected] g, 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 and gather comments about the proposed project and to discuss the "potential impacts to the Cowles Mill Complex and other environmental features of the area." 4+<8?67+88 William ‘Bill’ Walter Blumel 80, formerly of Nebraska City William "Bill" Walter Blumel, 80, died at Lake Andes Health Care Center in Lake Andes on Thursday, November 6, 2014.

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 n 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 selfess 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. I'm going to rent myself a house In the shade of the freeway I'm going to pack my lunch n the morning And go to work each day And when the evening rolls around I'll go on home and lay my body down And when the morning light comes streaming in I'll get up and do it again Amen Say it again Amen I want to know what became of the changes We waited for love to bring Were they only the fitful dreams Of some greater awakening I've been aware of the time going by They say in the end it's the wink of an eye And when the morning light comes streaming in You'll get up and do it again Amen JIM BROCK Caught between the longing for love And the struggle for the legal tender Where the sirens sing and the church bells ring And the junk man pounds his fender Where the veterans dream of the fight Fast asleep at the traffic light And the children solemnly wait For the ice cream vendor Out into the cool of the evening Strolls the Pretender He knows that all his hopes and dreams Begin and end there Ah the laughter of the lovers As they run through the night Leaving nothing for the others But to choose off and fight And tear at the world with all their might While the ships bearing their dreams Sail out of sight I'm going to find myself a girl Who can show me what laughter means And we'll fill in the missing colors In each other's paint-bynumber dreams And then we'll put out dark glasses on And we'll make love until our strength is gone And when the morning light comes streaming in We'll get up and do it again Get it up again I'm going to be a happy idiot And struggle for the legal tender Where the ads take aim and lay their claim To the heart and the soul of the spender And believe in whatever may lie In those things that money can buy Thought true love could have been a contender Are you there? Say a prayer for the Pretender Who started out so young and strong Only to surrender A simple life is something to ponder. It is the gift to those who have nothing to prove and nothing to lose. At least, nothing that can be taken by mortal men. In my opinion, "The Pretender" is a tribute to those who got an A+ in life. This is for Russell Keith Johnson. The First Amendment ! " # AND THEN THERE’S THE TRUTH Put up or shut up hat in the world happened during last week’s elections? By all accounts it was a landslide that included Utah electing its first black female Republican member to congress. I’ve heard every explanation from it being a direct rebuke of President Obama’s policies to it was just a natural cycle of politics and finicky voters. Either way, according to CNN, under Obama Democrats have seen the “biggest loss by a president's party since Harry Truman.” So, now the Republicans have control of congress and the majority of governorships while the Democrats have control of the presidency. These victories have given many Americans hope that the country might finally have a chance of getting back on track. Some in congress have said that they will fight executive amnesty for illegal aliens, repeal Obamacare, and approve the Keystone Pipeline. Ted Cruz even hinted that he may challenge Mitch McConnell for Senate majority leader. In an interview with Wolf Blitzer on CNN he said that we needed "much more legislation." Really? How about less legislation? How about W JASON COTE dismantling some of the volumes of legislation that have bogged down our country for the last several decades? How about putting divisive issues like abortion on the backburner and focusing on things that can actually be accomplished? Many have argued that the election is a mandate for the Republicans to repeal Obamacare. That’s a worthy goal, but let’s not forget that the Republicans have had control of the House of Representatives for the last two years and could have shut down Obamacare anytime they wanted. Since all spending must originate in the House, the Republicans could have simply refused to pass the appropriation necessary to fund it. They controlled the purse strings so they could have cut off all runaway spending and thus the LETTERS TO THE EDITOR employee of Planned ParNot a fan of enthood. Take note of these comJason Cote ments: 've been a NewsPress subscriber and reader for many, many years. I feel it's absolutely vital to Nebraska City to have a local newspaper as it's the only source to present the in depth news coverage necessary to know about this town. That being said, I must protest your printing of the column by Jason Cote. The column is strictly opinion (I know it's supposed to be). However it is spiteful, immature and very rarely supported by any facts or statistics. If you look at the November 7th NewsPress, you have one column, written by Jim Brock, that is full of facts backed by The Bureau of Labor, Pew Research Center and NBC News. Next to that is an article by Jason Cote with not a single source quoted but does have the "evidence to show" his point. That is pure trash reporting. No facts, just "evidence to show." Garbage like that should not, would not be in a respectable newspaper! The article starts with pure poison from 90 years ago that would likely not be part of the objective of any I “...They had for more than a century before been regarded as beings of an inferior order, and altogether unfit to associate with the white race, either in social or political relations; and so far inferior, that they had no rights which the white man was bound to respect; and that the negro might justly and lawfully be reduced to slavery for his benefit." Who was it that said this? None other than Roger B Taney, Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court in the Dred Scott case. Shall we now shut down the Supreme Court? This venomous, spiteful, immature columnist in a previous article called me and people who believe what I believe a "mental midget". I feel that if the NewsPress publishes something that says that, the NewsPress is also calling me childish names and should apologize to me and all like thinkers. Then he speaks for the Founding Fathers by asserting that they are "rolling over in their graves" Apparently he also relies on superstition and mysticism to supply information for his articles. Jason Cote is a columnist from Kansas City deficit at any time. There didn’t have to be a debt ceiling fight or even a government shutdown had they articulated to the American people exactly how they were going to save them money. There was literally nothing that Harry Reid or Obama could have done about it. In order to get elected, many Republican campaign ads promoted a “Vote Republican at all costs in order to stop Obama” theme. Senator Jeff Sessions of Alabama even promised that the newly elected Republican congress will stop Obama’s executive actions. Let’s not forget, however, that Republican President Bush enjoyed a Republican controlled congress for much of his presidency yet still managed to increase spending by 53% and discretionary spending by 96%. Please tell me how, with many of the same people in charge, that the Republicans will suddenly decide to be fiscally conservative? Will they decide that it’s not our place to be the policeman of the world at the expense of the American taxpayer? Will they cut spending, lower taxes, and remove legislation that restricts small business growth and job creation? Ever since the Democrats took control of Congress in 2006 and then the White House in 2008, Republicans have been complaining. They’ve complained about the out of control spending and the need to cut the size of government but when given the opportunity to do so they haven’t closed departments or cut programs or agencies. Now, however, they’ve been given a loud and clear mandate by the American people that the status quo of liberal polices cannot stand. Now that they have control of both houses of congress it’s time to fix the things they’ve been complaining about. The American people have been beat up by both Parties over the last several decades as congress and the presidency have swung back and forth. We are tired of voting for the lesser of the two evils. This election proves that Americans don’t simply want the velocity by which we are being robbed of our money and our liberty slowed down, we want it stopped. We want someone to fight for our rights and values and stop spending us into oblivion. We want off this runaway train right now. It’s time the GOP lived up to the conservative values that once made them great. Alright Republicans, it’s your time on stage. Millions of Americans are fed up. It’s time to put up or shut up! ministration reform package; they increased aid to Israel; and they kept highway construction projects around the country from losing funding. Why did these three measures find success when so many others did not? There’s a twoword answer: Powerful lobbyists. Last year, some 12,000 active lobbyists spent $3.24 billion on trying to influence the federal government, according to the Center for Responsive Politics. I don’t know of any other country where lobbyists have those kinds of numbers, spend that kind of money, or get the kinds of results they’re able to achieve here — in Congress, in the executive – Tim Engel branch and, increasingly, in statehouses around the country. They don’t win every battle. But they do win most of ecause of its power them. to influence public How do they do this? affairs, the press has Good lobbyists don’t just long been known as “the provide large amounts of Fourth Estate.” But I think money for campaigns, they the media may have been provide early money and displaced.

Jason Cote's column fits none of these categories. If I were a conservative, I would be very disgusted and embarrassed having someone with no facts, no statistics, just "evidence to show" using venom and mysticism supporting my opinions. I feel that I deserve an apology for being called a mental midget and will certainly reconsider my decades long subscription to what could be becoming nothing more than a gossip rag.

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.

PHOTO BY KIRT MANION ■ Bobcat volleyball wraps 2014 season The most productive Bobcat volleyball season since 2002 came to a close on Saturday night in Olathe, Kan., as the MidAmerica Nazarene University Pioneers topped Peru State 26-24, 25-18, 25-19. This was quarterfinal action in the Heart of America Athletic Conference post-season championship tournament. With the loss, the 'Cats ended their season at 24-14, the most wins since 2002 when Peru State won 28 games. With the win, the Pioneers will play in the conference semifinals on Wednesday night. No Bobcat finished in doubledigit kills. Lea Boras led Peru State with nine kills while Bre Brandt added seven. Nicole Soifua contributed six kills and hit .417.

The conference poll is tied to the NAIA's Coaches' Top 25 Preseason Poll which was released late last week. Going into the spring season, Peru State is tied with Baker University of Kansas on top of the Heart's preseason poll, which is based on how the teams played in the fall. Neither team was ranked in the NAIA Top 25, which ranks Northwood University of Florida as the preseason topranked team. The poll is voted upon by a panel of head coaches representing each of the conferences, A.I.I., and unaffiliated groups. The other teams ranked in the conference's preseason poll include: 3. Graceland University 4. Central (Iowa), Methodist University (Mo.), 5. Culver-Stockton College (Mo.), 6. Missouri Valley College, and 7. Avila University (Mo.). Bobcat head coach Brett Hahn was pleased with the ranking, but cautiously optimistic. "Preseason rankings are that, just preseason,” Hahn said. “Our team worked hard this fall while playing well most of the time,” said Hahn. “The women are doing some conditioning workouts throughout the winter and trying to maintain their competitive edge before we enter the spring practice and competition." As of now, the Bobcats will open their 2015 spring campaign at the Graceland Invite on March 27 and 28. Besides hosting their own tournament, Peru State will participate in at least two other tournaments before competing in the Heart of America Athletic Conference tournament. The Heart tournament will determine which team and/or individuals will compete in the national championships. This year's national championships will take place in Pooler, Ga., at the Savannah Quarters Golf Course. Big 10 tourney set for Omaha The Big Ten Conference announced that TD Ameritrade Park in Omaha, Neb., will once again serve as the host venue for the Big Ten Baseball Tournament in 2016 and 2018 after setting record attendance numbers last season. The annual event will return to the site of the NCAA Division I Men’s College World Series from May 18-22, 2016, and May 23-27, 2018. “We are very excited to return to TD Ameritrade Park for the 2016 and 2018 Big Ten Baseball Tournaments,” Big Ten Commissioner James E. Delany said. “It was amazing to see so many passionate fans at the Big Ten Baseball Tournament this past May, and we look forward to coming back to Omaha.” “The 2014 Big Ten Baseball Tournament far exceeded expectations,” Metropolitan Entertainment & Convention Authority President and CEO Roger Dixon said. p.m. Utah at Toronto, 6:30 p.m. Indiana at Chicago, 7 p.m. Detroit at Memphis, 7 p.m. Minnesota at Dallas, 7:30 p.m. Brooklyn at Portland, 9 p.m. San Antonio at Sacramento, 9 p.m. Charlotte at Golden State, 9:30 p.m. Phoenix at LA Clippers, 9:30 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 16 Denver at New York, 12 p.m. Milwaukee at Miami, 5 p.m. Houston at Oklahoma City, 6 p.m. Golden State at LA Lakers, 8:30 p.m. Monday, Nov. 17 Dallas at Charlotte, 6 p.m. Denver at Cleveland, 6 p.m. Phoenix at Boston, 6:30 p.m. Miami at Brooklyn, 6:30 p.m. Orlando at Detroit, 6:30 p.m. Houston at Memphis, 7 p.m. Philadelphia at San Antonio, 7:30 p.m. New Orleans at Portland, 9 p.m. Chicago at LA Clippers, 9:30 p.m. Chicago at Detroit, 6:30 p.m. NY Islanders at Florida, 6:30 p.m. Arizona at Vancouver, 9 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 15 Carolina at Boston, 12 p.m. Minnesota at Dallas, 1 p.m. Anaheim at Los Angeles, 3 p.m. Toronto at Buffalo, 6 p.m. Philadelphia at Montreal, 6 p.m. NY Islanders at Tampa Bay, 6 p.m. Colorado at New Jersey, 6 p.m. NY Rangers at Pittsburgh, 6 p.m. San Jose at Columbus, 6 p.m. Winnipeg at Nashville, 6 p.m. Washington at St. Louis, 7 p.m. Ottawa at Calgary, 9 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 16 San Jose at Carolina, 4 p.m. Winnipeg at Minnesota, 4 p.m. Montreal at Detroit, 6 p.m. Dallas at Chicago, 6 p.m. Florida at Anaheim, 7 p.m. Arizona at Edmonton, 8 p.m. Monday, Nov. 17 Tampa Bay at NY Rangers, 6 p.m. NHL Friday, Nov. 14 New Jersey at Washington, 6 p.m. Columbus at Philadelphia, 6 p.m. Pittsburgh at Toronto, 6:30 p.m. BERNARD REAL ESTATE & AUCTION COMPANY, LLC 900 Central Avenue (Across from the Fort) Serving Southeast Nebraska and Southwest Iowa 402-873-3303 www.bernardrealestate.net WAUBONSIE RIDGE 280th Ave. & Hwy. 2 - Sidney, IA (Just 10 miles East of Nebraska City) 315 Pinewood Drive - Nebraska City 2 Acre + Lots For Sale Saturday, November 15 10:00 A.M.

ASK AMY Wife objects to movie choices DEAR AMY: I’m at a loss on how to move forward with my wife (it is a second marriage for us both). She’s a far more conservative Christian than I am and objects to any type of nudity in movies. I tell her that before we met, I didn’t seek it out, but sometimes good movies have nudity in them. For the last five years I haven’t watched a movie with nudity, but we still argue about it regularly. She says she can’t trust me because of my views, which spirals into all sorts of other problems. I explain that I think what I think, and we’ve discussed it and I’ve agreed to not watch any movies that she finds objectionable. I know she carries baggage from her first husband. She discovered a few skeletons in his closet after his death. I’m trying to be understanding, but years of my wife saying she doesn’t trust me are starting to wear me down. — Stumped DEAR STUMPED: I’m assuming that you two are tussling over R-rated movies (and not GASOLINE ALLEY THE MIDDLETONS Amy Dickinson is a Tribune Media Services national columnist pornography). Simply put, if your wife doesn’t like movies with nudity in them, then she shouldn’t watch them. After establishing that you two don’t quite agree about nudity in movies, she is now controlling you, policing you and arguing about this regularly. This is not about movies. This is about trust. Your wife is making you pay for her late husband’s actions. Given her history this is not that surprising, but it undermines your own marriage. This problem will not go away. It will migrate into other areas of your life. You two need couples counseling; she must find a way to close the door on the hurt from her previous marriage in order to start fresh with you.

Launch your year with confidence and power. Bounty comes with dedicated efforts. After Dec. 23, begin a profitable yearlong phase. The social arena provides rising status. Collaborate with friends on dreams and adventures. Aries (March 21-April 19) — Go over plans again. It’s not a good time to expand. Take it slow and review the situation. Rearrange furniture. Ask a question you’ve been considering. Taurus (April 20-May 20) — You may feel like taking on home projects, but today’s better for planning than action. Don’t launch a new endeavor yet. Gemini (May 21-June 20) — Controversy arises. It could get emotional or hot-blooded. Decrease activities, and take it easy. Don’t spend too much. Work interferes with playtime. Cancer (June 21-July 22) — Your desire for fun and practical obligations could conflict today. Delays could hamper work and travel. Don’t buy toys yet. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — There may be obstacles to accomplishing your objective at home. Keep researching for better prices. Clean up the back yard or garage. Discover hidden resources. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Fantasy and facts clash. Simplify to minimize regular expenses, and increase savings. Decline a social invitation for now. Quiet time in peaceful surroundings recharges your batteries. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) — Guests arrive... offer warm hospitality, and your peacemaker skills. Be careful, something you try doesn’t work. Don’t follow a hunch blindly. Listen for what’s wanted. Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Employ a light touch. Accidents are possible, especially in a rush or hurry. Watch your own strength... you have more than you think. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Reduce expenses. Take local trips rather than long-distance. Meet by videoconference. Disruptions and delays could plague travels and shipping. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Postpone a financial discussion, and do the numbers to prepare. Get clear on the facts. Your credit rating’s going up. Complete a contract or other document. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Work and romance could conflict. Listen to your partner’s considerations before choosing. New evidence threatens complacency. Insight comes from contemplation. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) — Postpone travel. Focus on a new career target. The current one may not take you where you want to go. Don’t try new tricks or take financial risks.

BCBSNE had proposed "multiple times" to sign a separate agreement with CHI Health facilities outside of Omaha. CHI Health refused. "We were hopeful of reaching an agreement with Denver-based CHI long before now - especially in our efforts to take members in these five communities out of the middle of an Omaha problem," Handke said. "That wasn't happening, so we took it upon ourselves to do something about it." Bourne said CHI Health wasn't willing to work with BCBSNE. "We've asked CHI to meet with us. The last time that we submitted a contract proposal with them was sometime around the first of October. We listed, six or seven times in there, suggested meeting times. They rejected our proposal," Bourne said. Since the five facilities are still out-of-network BCBSNE will send medical services payments directly to members, who will be responsible for paying their provider. CHI Health can still bill members for the difference between what the insurance company pays and what the provider charges even though CHI Health officials have stated publicly that they won't bill members for the difference. "The thing for our members to know is that basically if you use one of those out-of-network hospitals they're still out-of-network, but we'd be paying the rate that was in effect prior to the contract terminating." Bourne said BCBSNE didn't make this move based on losing members, but rather because the company didn't believe it was fair for members to drive further for medical care. Bourne said letters are being sent to 42,000 member households in the five areas explaining what's going on. Bourne said this is a solution for now until further notice.

" Soldier presents Lourdes with ‘special’ American flag Tammy Partsch [email protected] s part of the annual Veterans Day activities at Lourdes Central Catholic Schools on Nov. 11, Nebraska Army National Guard Colonel Lynn Heng presented the school with a special American flag. The flag was flown at Forward Operating Base Gardez in Gardez, Afghanistan, on September 11, 2001, the tenth anniversary of the 9/11 attacks on American soil. Heng said the flag honors all past, present, and future Lourdes alumni that serve in the United States military. A member of the Lourdes Class of 1984, Heng has served in the Army National Guard for 28 years. A “I was halfway through college when I decided to join,” Heng said, crediting his father as his inspiration. “My dad was active duty at the end of the Korean War.” Heng said his mom was worried he wouldn’t finish school if he joined the military. Heng took a semester off to complete his basic training. He said serving in the military helped pay for his undergraduate and master’s degrees. Now, 28 years later, Heng is a veteran of four overseas deployments, including two to Afghanistan, one to Bosnia, and one to Kosovo. During his presentation at Lourdes Central Catholic on Veterans Day, Heng named several Lourdes alumni currently serving in various branches of the United States Bring your beloved pet to Paw Naturale Pet Grooming and receive 20% off your first groom with us.

Kochanowicz has already started his military commitment and, after graduating from high school in May, will report for basic training. Kochanowicz will be Chaplain Assistant to Army Chaplain Father Steve Tomlinson, formerly of Nebraska City. “There has been a lot of talk about the Greatest Generation being those who served in World War II,” Heng said. “Well, I think the Second Greatest Generation are those who have joined the military since 9/11. When I joined in the 1980s, there was little risk. Now, without a doubt, you know what you are getting into.” Heng and a few fellow members of the Lourdes Class of 1984 sponsored the flag, which is framed and will be installed in the school.
