America's Team

If America has a team, it's always going to be the best dressed. Or at least the one with the best color scheme.

For your consider-ation, I o� er the Dallas Cowboys. When you � rst think "Dallas Cowboys," what is the � rst image that comes into your mind? Don't wait for the translation. Just answer. It's that blue star in the middle of a silver helmet. � en it's the white jersey — played home and away when handled correctly — and a few icons at running back and quar-terback.

According to a new Harris Poll, the Dallas Cowboys are truly "America's Team" once again. � ey are far and away the favorite among a d u l t s 3 0 - 6 4 , Southerners, blacks and Hispanics. I never knew that they were not America's team, but I can tell you that I know why they are.

Dallas is a great town. � e Ticket, by the way, is the best sports-radio

station in America, hands down. Any station that broadcasts "Michael Irvin's School Closings" is far and away very very funny. Also, YouTube its Trump vs. Cuban debate. It only has a few thou-sand views, and that's a shame. It's an instant classic.

Dallas is like a lot of cities, but unlike any other. It's as if Atlanta and Kansas City had a big baby. It's everything you think Texas is and less. It's big and boister-ous, but kind of polite when needed. It is posi-tive and can-do (not Kansas City), but it also is truthful to your face and confident (not Atlanta).

And i t has t he Cowboys. The Texas R a n g e r s a r e n o t America's team. The Dallas Stars aren't even covered or discussed in San Antonio or Houston. � e Dallas Mavericks are Germany's favorite team, maybe. But the Cowboys regulate.

So I conducted my own poll. I asked my mom what she thought

when she thought of the Cowboys. "Cheerleaders" was her reply. First answer on the board. Dad? "Staubach." And he didn't stop there. "� ey changed the name from 'Dallas Cowgirls' to ' D a l l a s C o w b o y Cheerleaders. ' How stupid was that? The Dallas Cowgirls were on the 'Love Boat' every week!"

Equipped with the fact that the "Love Boat" was the highest attainment for anything, I called my sister. "I say Dallas Cowboys, you say what?" She says, "football." I say, "OK, let's try this again. Cowboys." "Football," she answers.

My sister is a smart person. She eventually mutters some stu� about cheerleaders. I let her o� the hook.

Fine, America. If you want the Dallas Cowboys as your team, then know their heroes. "Dandy" Don Meredith, Roger Staubach, Drew Pearson, Tony Dorsett, "Too Tall" Jones, Terrapin Randy White, QB Danny White ... the Dallas Cowgirls ... Tom Landry.

And don't kid yourself. � at team that wears a green, orange or purple ensemble? It 's not America's team. The matter of dress matters. Never forget that.

Mark Vasto is a veteran sportswriter who lives in Kansas City.

� e Illinois Conservation Police remind hunters, boaters, and campers to be aware of the dangers of carbon monoxide (CO) pro-duced by portable heaters and generators. As the weather cools, outdoorsmen and women o� en rely on portable heating devices to stay warm during fall hunting and fishing trips. The Illinois Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) urges the use of carbon monoxide de-tectors in enclosed spaces and recommends equipment be inspected to be sure it is oper-able prior to use.

“Carbon monoxide detec-tors should also be used on your boat, cabin or in your camper. CO is colorless and odorless, and o� en isn’t de-tected until it’s too late,” said Illinois Conservation Police Chief Rafael Gutierrez.

On Nov. 7, a man was hos-pitalized for CO poisoning a� er spending the night on his boat docked just o� the Illinois River in Jersey County.

� e victim was taken by am-bulance to Jersey Community Hospital and later airli� ed to St. Louis University Hospital. He is expected to survive. � e man’s boat had a leaky exhaust system, and the CO detector was not functioning due to a loose fuse connection.

Many carbon monoxide deaths occur during colder months when windows and doors are locked up at night leaving little or no ventilation inside.

Carbon monoxide acci-dents can happen in boat cabins because, in most cases, these areas are small enclo-sures, but there are other places where precautions need to be taken. Small hunting cabins, campers, and hunting blinds where a kero-sene heater or internal com-bustion engine may be used for warmth are also places where people need to take precautions. In cabins or campers that have not been used recently, check vents for leaves, nests or other obstruc-

tions.Illinois Conservation

Police o� er the following tips when using heating devices:

Make sure your equipment such as generators, internal combustion engines, or any heater that burns petroleum products are vented and maintained properly. Always have a working carbon mon-oxide detector in any enclo-sure where people will be.Always use replacement parts or components intended solely for the equipment being used. Make sure the area you are in is ventilated at all times.

According to the Centers for Disease Control, more than 400 people die each year in the United States from carbon monoxide poisoning, while thousands more are sickened by the gas. More than 4,000 are hospitalized. Many victims are overcome in their sleep, unaware of the elevated carbon monoxide levels in their homes.

TAKE PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING

With the holiday season in full swing, you may � nd your-self exploring those tempting online shopping deals.

� e day a� er � anksgiving has nearly become a holiday of its own. “Black Friday” is the busiest shopping day of the year, with people lining up at midnight for deals as they begin the busy holiday shop-ping season. � e Monday a� er that has become a virtual holiday, pun intended. “Cyber Monday” is the day Internet-savvy people search for deals, all online.

But, there’s more than one way to � nd value on the Inter-net. For example, Social Secu-rity o� ers many online ser-vices to the public — and they’re free and secure! Doing business online with Social Security will also save time. Now that’s an o� er you can’t refuse!

Here are some of the most popular online services you’ll � nd at www.socialsecurity.gov. Each site is safe and secure.

1. � e online Social Secu-rity Statement is a hot service that is a big hit with the mil-lions of people who’ve used it since its launch. Your online Statement provides you with a record of your past earnings, and it uses those earnings along with projected earnings for future years to give you accurate estimates of future Social Security bene� ts. Open your personal my Social Secu-rity account to get your State-ment today. Just go to www.s o c i a l s e c u r i t y. g ov / myaccount/.

2. � e Retirement Estima-tor is an easy way to get an instant, personalized estimate of your future Social Security bene� ts. Just enter some basic information and the Estimator will use information on your Social Security record, along

with what you input, to give you a bene� t estimate on the spot. You can even experiment with di� erent scenarios, such as changing your future earn-ings and retirement date. Check it out in English at www.socialsecurity.gov/estimator or in Spanish at www.segurosocial.gov/calcu-lador.

3. � e online Retirement Application is the most con-venient way to apply for Social Security retirement bene� ts. You can apply from the comfort of your home — it’s convenient and secure. In fact, you can apply online in as little as 15 minutes. In most cases, a� er your application is sub-mitted electronically, you’re done. � ere are no forms to sign and, usually, no docu-mentation is required. Social Security will process your ap-plication and contact you if any further information is needed. When you’re ready to retire, apply at www.socialsecurity.gov/applyonline.

4. Business Services Online is our one-stop shop for small business owners. The site allows organizations and au-thorized people to conduct business with and submit con-� dential information to Social Security. Employers can use it to � le W-2s for their employ-ees the fast, convenient, and paperless way — online. Visit Business Services Online at www.socialsecurity.gov/bso.

Social Security’s online ser-vices continually receive the highest ratings in both the public and private sectors. Each site uses the highest se-curity to keep your informa-tion safe. We have one of the top-ranking websites for plain language, so you can easily understand the features you’re getting — no fine print to squint over.

Learn more about all you can do online at Social Secu-rity on Cyber Monday, or any day, at www.socialsecurity.gov/onlineservices.

***Question:What can I do if my Medi-

care prescription drug plan says it won't pay for a drug that my doctor prescribed for me?

Answer:If your Medicare prescrip-

tion drug plan decides that it won't pay for a prescription drug, it must tell you in writing why the drug isn't covered in a letter called a "Notice of Denial of Medicare Prescrip-tion Drug Coverage." Read the notice carefully because it will explain how to ask for an appeal. Your prescribing doctor can ask your Medicare drug plan for an expedited redetermination (first level appeal) for you, if the doctor

tells the plan that waiting for a standard appeal decision may seriously harm your health. For more information, visit www.medicare.gov.

Question:What is substantial gainful

activity?Answer:We use the term “substan-

tial gainful activity,” or “SGA,” to describe a level of work activity and earnings. Work is “substantial” if it involves doing signi� cant physical or mental activities or a combina-tion of both.

If you earn more than a certain amount and are doing productive work, we gener-ally consider that you are en-gaging in substantial gainful activity. For example, the monthly SGA amount for 2015 is $1,090. For statutorily blind individuals, that amount is $1,820. You would not be eli-gible for disability bene� ts. You can read more about sub-stantial gainful activity and if your earnings qualify as sub-stantial gainful activity at www.socialsecurity.gov/oact/cola/sga.html.

Over 175 volunteers from the Central Christian Church and surrounding area will take time away from their families to make sure no one has to spend the � anksgiving holiday alone. The volunteers include youth all the way up to senior citizens. � eir duties include cooking, serving, cleaning up and making everyone feel welcome.

The dinner was origi-nally started by a local phy-sician. When he was unable to host the dinner, Steve Reynolds, a dedicated church member took over the tradition. “Steve real-ized that the long standing tradition was a great need in the community,” Associate Pastor Randy Sells said.

� e � rst year the church

fed about 100 people. In 2014, the dinner hosted around 1,800 people. Steve Reynolds and his fellow hospitality team at the church will be cooking enough food to feed 1,900 people this year. � e church also delivers dinners for the Je� erson County meals on wheels program, the local police and fire depart-ments.

� e dinner will consist of traditional turkey, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, gravy, dressing, vegetables, hot rolls and home made apple, black-berry and peach cobbler.

� e church will also be hosting its annual coat drive. Coats, sweaters, sweatshirts, hats and gloves will be given away at the dinner. � e church will also accept gently used winter

items at the church o� ce. � e church is in need of

volunteers to serve, clean up and deliver meals. To volunteer, call the church o� ce at 242-4185.

Sell says, “� e church will also be delivering meals to homes of elderly, disabled or homebound people. However, you must call the church at 242-4185, by Wednesday, November 25 at 12:00 noon. � ere will be no general deliver-ies."

Sells stresses that, “� e holiday event is not just for people who can’t a� ord to cook a Thanksgiving dinner. We believe that no one should spend the holi-days alone. � is is just one way our church tries to minister to the communi-ty.”

Alyssa Heimerman: From Girl Scout Gold Award Recipient to Air Force O� cer.

Since 1916, Girl Scouts have been making mean-ingful, sustainable changes in their communities and around the world through their Girl Scout Gold Award projects. � e Girl Scout Gold Award, the highest honor a Girl Scout can earn, acknowledges the power behind each recipi-ent’s dedication to not only empowering herself, but also to making the world a better place for others. As the Girl Scout Gold Award celebrates 100 years of girls changing the world, Girl Scouts of Southern Illinois (GSSI) will highlight some of their shining stars who exemplify the greatness of this award.

Alyssa Heimerman, originally from Belleville, earned her Girl Scout Gold Award in 2009. Alyssa be-lieved more environmen-tal-based learning oppor-tunities should be provided to youth in grades K-12. For her Girl Scout Gold Award project, she teamed up with the YMCA. � e organization provided Alyssa with a trailer on their grounds for her to r e n o v a t e i n t o a n

Environmental Education Center. Alyssa worked to renovate the interior of the trailer, build a deck outside, create nature trails around the area and develop a K-12 curriculum.

The Girl Scout Gold Award recognizes a Girl Scout's commitment to excellence as she develops skills and values to meet present and future chal-lenges in her life. To earn the Girl Scout Gold Award, a Girl Scout Senior or Girl Scout Ambassador must design and carry out a project that ful� lls a need within a girl’s community, creates change, and is sus-tainable. � e project must be completed with a sug-gested minimum of 80 hours of work. Only about 5 percent of eligible girls earn the prestigious Gold Award. “Find something you are passionate about, something that you want to make better, something that motivates you…and don’t give up,” are words of encouragement Alyssa o� ers to Girl Scouts who want earn the highest award in Girl Scouting.

Completing a Girl Scout Gold Award project bene-fits the community by filling a need, but the project also bene� ts the girl by helping her gain skills she can take into adult-hood. Alyssa, now a 1st Lieutenant with the United States Air Force, says her Girl Scout Gold Award project helped prepare her to enter the military. “My Gold Award project pre-pared me to become a military o� cer and leader by teaching and reinforcing so many characteristics — communication, responsi-bility, short-term and long-

term planning and time management,” said Alyssa.

“I attribute a lot of who I am today to the Girl Scout organization,” said Alyssa. “Girl Scouts teaches so many characteristics to help young ladies become women with confidence and open-mindedness to take on all the world has to offer. Organizations and corporations today need not only leaders, but also team players, and Girl Scouts is the ideal organiza-tion for girls to perfect those skills,” Alyssa added.

Alyssa Heimerman is an Aircraft Maintenance O� cer stationed at Travis Air Force Base in California. She is currently serving as the Operat ions and T r a i n i n g F l i g h t C o m m a n d e r , 8 2 1 Contingency Response Support Squadron.

Today, Girl Scouts of the U.S.A. is the largest volun-tary organization for girls in the world. Its sole focus is to meet the needs of all girls (ages 5-17) from diverse racial, ethnic and socioeconomic back-grounds. Today’s Girl Scouts not only enjoy camping and crafts, but they also explore math and science and learn about diversity, good citizenship, leadership and teamwork. Girl Scouting is the place where girls experience the fun, friendship and power of girls together.

Girl Scouts of Southern Illinois is a not-for-pro� t organization supported by various United Ways throughout the region. Girl Scouts is a Proud Partner of United Way. For more information, please call Tricia Higgins at 618-242-5079.

19916 L hb Rd O d k CCCCServing Illinois Since 2010.

The Islamic State on Saturday claimed respon-sibility for the attacks in Paris, France that are thought to have le� 130 dead and 392 hospital-ized, of which 96 are in critical condition. It was the worst attack on French soil since WWII, leaving the country and the world in shock!

The night of terror began with two suicide bombers outside a soccer stadium. Then the carnage continued, leaving more victims at the popular Le Carillon bar and Le Petit Cam-bodge restaurant. And while the California band Eagles of Death Metal played at the Bataclan Concert Hall, many more victims were le� dead and wounded. As the news was updated, it was re-ported ISIS hit a handicap section, killing people in wheelchairs at the concert hall as well as others.

All the targets above were considered soft targets catering to young people, some as young as in their teens. I don't mind saying I'm heart broken over the loss of life. It also brought back memories of Charlie Hebdo when 12 people were killed in Paris, France.

I couldn't help but think of my innocent beautiful grandsons and granddaughter in college, full of life and excited about their futures. If they had been in Paris on a

lovely Friday evening, I'm certain they would have been at the musical venue or dining at one of those outdoor restaurants, and certainly at least one would have been at the soccer game, bringing it home to me for these families experiencing horri� c loss.

What happened was nothing short of an "act of war." And I hope the world takes note because unless ISIS is destroyed no one is safe from their barbaric acts of inhu-manity. What I � nd es-pecially hard to grasp is we have a POTUS in the White House that just said, "ISIS has been con-tained." � is statement is nothing further from the truth. � is man lives in a fantasy world! God knows I wish he were right, but he's not, and on his handling of ISIS he never has been.

Unfortunately, our government doesn't get it, and what happened in France can happen here — or for that matter, any-where! ISIS has no respect for human life and has demonstrated that in their actions.

ISIS claimed responsi-bility for these attacks and said they were for revenge over the recent air strikes in Syria. � e attacks were carried out by at least eight young men, and possibly more, that opened fire in six different attacks, the worst being the concert

hall which claimed the majority of loss of life and injury.

On September 11, 2001 it only took 19 hi-jackers — 19 radicals — to bring us to our knees, destroy the twin towers, and attack the Pentagon. � ey killed 3,000 Amer-icans that day, and if not for several brave Ameri-cans on the fourth plane, who knows how many more would have died. So to you, Mr. Obama, I say wake up!

The President of France has declared a three day mourning period.

I truly believe ISIS is a threat like we've never seen before. It's time for the world to come to-gether and destroy them.

November 13, 2015 will be remembered as a European day of mourn-ing.

Barack Obama has skirted around saying radical Islamic extrem-ists, so let me say it for him: To remain passive about ISIS is to commit suicide.

To make matters worse, Obama has agreed to accept 10,000 Syrian refugees!

Until next week.

Why Cats Won’t Use Litter Box

D E A R P AW ’ S CORNER: I read your column responding to the reader whose cats will not use the litter box. I have three cats and two litter boxes, and they’re doing just � ne. Here’s what I use: I put a litter called “Feline Pine” in the boxes. It comes in pellets, which don’t weigh much, and you don’t have to use much, just cover the bottom of the pan. When the cats pee, the pellets turn into some-thing like sawdust.

Also, if the reader

scoops the boxes every day, or even twice a day, no one will even know he has cats! Trust me! — Jean H., via email

DEAR JEAN: � anks for the tip! Trying a completely different type of cat litter can help in the case of litter box avoidance. Some cats are turned o� by scented litter, while others have an aversion to a litter’s texture. And of course, diligent litter box cleaning makes every one in the house-hold — humans and cats — much happier.

As I said in the previ-ous article, owners whose cats are avoiding the box have to experi-ment a bit to find a solution. Using boxes with lids, or boxes without lids; replacing heavily soiled carpet and backing and treat-ing with a “keep away”

spray; increasing the number of litter boxes available; and observ-ing the cats’ behavior

for potential con� ict or health issues.

• On Nov. 22, 1718, Edward Teach, also known as Blackbeard, is killed o� North Carolina's Outer Banks during a battle with a British navy force. Believed to be a native of England, Teach likely began his pirating career in 1713 on the Queen Anne's Revenge.

• On Nov. 20, 1923, the U.S. Patent O� ce grants Patent No. 1,475,074 to inventor and newspaper-man Garrett Morgan for his three-position tra� c signal. By having a third position besides just "Stop" and "Go," it better regulated crossing vehicles.

CookingWith Lizzie

Gosh, only � ve weeks till Christmas, and � anksgiving is a week away! It's a time when families gather near their hearth to sip cider and re� ect ... A time when southern kitchens grow warm and fragrant with baking cakes, breads, cookies and candy ... A time of year to host family and friends. On Christmas Eve we always have oyster stew and fresh baked bread. When the children are home for the holidays they always remind me they want oyster stew.

My Oyster Stew Recipe1/4 cup lightly salted butter 1/4 tsp. black pepper or margarine 1 quart half-and-half or milk1 (10 or 12 oz.) container 1/4 cup dry white wine (optional) fresh oysters, undrained Paprika1/2 tsp. salt

Melt butter in a heavy saucepan; add oysters, oyster liquor, salt, pepper, and half-and-half. Cook over low heat, stirring until edges of oysters begin to curl. Stir in wine, if desired. Serve in soup bowls, sprinkled with paprika. Yield: 4 to 6 servings.

French Quarter Bread Pudding With Lemon Sauce4 eggs 2 cups milk1 cup sugar 1/3 cup raisins1½ tsp. vanilla extract 1/2 cup chopped pecans, toasted1½ tsp. ground cinnamon 5 cups stale French bread cubes (1")1 tsp. ground nutmeg Lemon Rum Sauce (recipe below)1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

In a large bowl, beat eggs with an electric mixer on high speed until thick and lemon-colored. Add sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and butter; beat at high speed until blended. Stir in milk, raisins, and pecans. Place bread cubes in a lightly greased 8" square baking pan. Pour egg mixture over bread, stirring until all bread is soaked. Let stand at room temperature about 30 minutes, lightly mashing bread down in egg mixture occasionally. Preheat oven to 300° F. Bake for 40 minutes. Increase oven temperature to 425° and bake 10 minutes more, or until pudding is browned and pu� y. To serve, cut pudding into squares. Place each square in a dish and top with Lemon Rum Sauce. Yield: 4 to 6 servings.

Lemon Rum Sauce1/2 cup unsalted butter 1 egg, beaten1 cup si� ed confectioners' sugar 1 T. lemon juice1 T. rum 1 tsp. grated lemon rind

Place butter in top of a double boiler; bring water underneath to a boil. Reduce heat to low; cook until butter melts. Add sugar and rum, stirring until sugar dissolves. Gradually stir about one fourth of hot mixture into beaten egg; add egg mixture to remaining hot mixture in pan, stirring constantly. Cook, stirring constantly, 5 minutes, or until sauce thickens. Remove from heat; stir in lemon juice and lemon rind. Yield: 1 cup.

French Bread3 pkgs. active dry yeast 8 to 8½ cups white bread � our1 tsp. sugar 1 T. plus 1 tsp. salt2½ cups warm water (105° to 115°F)

Dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water; let stand 5 minutes. Stir gently to make sure yeast is dissolved. Si� 8 cups � our with the salt into a large bowl, stirring gently to combine; add yeast mixture, mixing well to make a so� dough. Turn dough out onto a � oured surface, and knead 5 to 10 minutes, or until smooth and elastic. Sprinkle dough generously with � our so dough will not form a crust. Cover dough with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place (85° F.), free from dra� s, for 2 to 3 hours. Sprinkle large baking sheets with � our; set aside. Punch dough down; knead dough quickly, then divide into 4 equal portions. Shape each portion into a long roll, about 15 inches long. Place rolls on � oured baking sheets. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place (85° F.) for 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 425° F. Gently cut 1/4" deep diagonal slashes in loaves with a razor. Spray loaves lightly with water. Bake for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350° F. and bake 15 to 20 minutes, or until loaves are golden and sound hollow when tapped. Yield: 4 loaves.

12 The Shoppers Weekly Papers Mt. Vernon Area Wednesday, November 18, 2015Smiley Face

Q: I have a "Happy Face" mug from the 1970s. Is it worth keeping? — Stepha-nie, Englewood, Colorado

A: The little happy face on a bright yellow circle has become totally synony-

mous with the 1970s. � e smiley face was � rst intro-duced as a morale-building button by a Massachusetts insurance company. It was the right product at the right time and soon was seen everywhere. The image was used on neck-

ties, co� ee mugs, toys and fabric prints. Typical values for smiley face items include a deck of playing cards, $10; coasters, set of four, $8; cookie jar, $50-$100; electric wall clock, $20; and ceramic mug made by McCoy, $25.

A good reference for items from this era is "� e Collectible '70s: A Price Guide to the Polyester Decade" by Michael Jay Goldberg.

***Q: I received a Breitling

Navitimer wristwatch from my dad when I graduated from college in 1968. When I took it to be cleaned, the watchman told me it was quite valuable. My big ques-tion is how valuable. It is the model 606, with three reg-isters and in a stainless-steel case. — Rob, Camden, Ohio

A: I found your watch referenced in "100 Years of Vintage Watches: A Collec-tor's Identi� cation & Price Guide" by Dean Judy and published by Krause Books. According to Judy, a watch-maker/jeweler and expert, your watch is valued in the $1,000 to $1,800 range. Incidentally, the watch was sold as the "O� cial Time-piece of the Aircraft Owners' and Pilots' Asso-ciation."

***

Q: I have a plastic thimble with "Sew It Up for Nixon & Lodge: Experience Counts." What is it worth? — Sue, Davenport, Iowa

A: Your thimble is from the 1960 campaign and worth about $10, according to Dr. Enoch L. Nappen, a political science professor at New Jersey's Monmouth University and an expert of political campaign materials.

***Q: I have inherited a set

of sterling � atware in the Hamilton Court pattern by Reed & Barton. When was it introduced, and is Reed and Barton an important company? — Cynthia, Fort Wayne, Indiana

A: Reed & Barton was established in 1840 and eventually introduced more than 100 silver patterns. Your pattern is from 1964.

• To freshen carpets, there's no need to purchase expensive or heavily per-fumed carpet deodorizers — baking soda can do the job. Sprinkle carpets liber-ally, let set for 30 minutes to an hour, and then vacuum thoroughly.

• "If you host a large family holiday gathering and serve a lot of side dishes, try this trick to keep them hot while waiting for other items to � nish in the oven. Simply cover the bottom of a clean ice chest with a few trivets or a couple kitchen towels, and set casseroles and oven-cooked meats inside. Most people use a cooler to keep things cold, but the insula-

tion works just as well to keep hot things hot ... at least for a little while." — M.E. in West Virginia

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Your ruling planet, Mars, allows you to assume a sense of command that can help you turn a chaotic workplace situ-ation into one that’s orderly, produc-tive and, yes, even friendly.TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Getting a relationship that’s been stuck in a rut up and running again depends on how far you want to run with it. Be honest with yourself as you consider which decision to make.GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Be wary of rumors that seem to be coming from everywhere this week. Wait-ing for the facts before you act means never having to say you’re sorry you followed the wrong lead.CANCER (June 21 to July 22) A dif-� cult personal matter might prompt you to turn to a trusted friend to help you sort through a maze of emotional con� icts. � e weekend should bring some welcome news.LEO (July 23 to August 22) Some of the new people coming into the Lion’s life could play pivotal roles in future personal and professional matters. Meanwhile, an old friend might have an important message.VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) A delay in getting things moving on schedule can be a blessing in disguise. Use this extra time to do more re-search so you can buttress any of the weaker points with solid facts.LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) You might need to get involved in a personal matter before it becomes

a serious problem. Also, be wary of someone o� ering to mediate, unless you can be sure of his or her motives.SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Taking sides in a workplace or domestic dispute could prolong the problem. Stay out and stay cool. � en you can be friends with both parties when things settle down.SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) A friendship has the potential to become something more, and with this week’s aspects favoring romance, you might feel that this pos-sibility is worth exploring.CAPRICORN (December 22 to Janu-ary 19) � e new job you want might require you to relocate. If so, keep an open mind and weigh all the positives and negatives before making your decision.AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) A new relationship seems to be everything you could have hoped for. Congratulations. Meanwhile, it’s not too early to get some feedback on that new project you’re working on.PISCES (February 19 to March 20) You might have decided to get out of the fast-moving current and just � oat around hither and yon for a while. But you might � nd that the new opportu-nity is too tempting to turn down.BORN THIS WEEK: You believe in bringing out the best in people with kind deeds, loving words and recogni-tion of their “special” selves.

• It was beloved British crime novelist Agatha Christie who made the following sage observa-tion: "It is a curious thought, but it is only when you see people looking ridiculous that you realize just how much you love them."

• If you've ever yelled out a warning in panic — "Stop!," "Run!," "Don't!" — you've used a monepic sentence, one

that is complete with just a single word. Of course, at the time you probably weren't concerned about the grammatical nature of your utterance.

• When in New Jersey, you'd best mind your manners at the table. In that state, it's illegal to slurp your soup.

• If you're a sky-watch-er, you may already know that the center star of the constellation Orion's

sword isn't actually a star; it's a nebula — the only one visible from Earth with the naked eye. In fact, the Orion Nebula is so large that if the dis-tance between the Earth and the sun were 1 inch, the relative size of the nebula would be 12 miles.

• If you were to create a rope out of one full head of human hair, that rope would be able to support 12 tons.

• It's a well-worn trope that men refuse to stop and ask for directions when they're lost. � at point of view might seem to be supported by the results of a survey con-

ducted by the American Automobile Association, which found that 34 percent of male drivers admit to stopping to ask for directions. However, the same survey found that only 37 percent of women did the same.

National Bible Week is a week devoted to encouraging people to read the Bible, in the belief that it will arouse a positive spiritual force in a world plagued with problems. National Bible Week is promoted by the National Bible As-sociation (originally the Laymen's National Committee), a non-denominational group of businessmen founded in 1940 and devoted to the application of the Golden Rule in daily life. A huge audience listened to the NBC radio program that was broadcast to kick o� the � rst National Bible Week scheduled for December 8-14, 1941; Pearl Harbor had been bombed just hours before.

Yet, at the beginning of the twenty-� rst century, the sig-ni� cance of the beginning of National Bible Week is almost, for many Americans, a matter of historical amnesia. Like so many, many other moments in American history, Christians were presented with a reason to be proud of their heritage.

Consider the following Founding Fathers and their thoughts on the Bible.

John Adams . . . signer of the Declaration of Indepen-dence; Judge; Diplomat; One of Two Signers of the Bill of Rights; Second President of the United States.

"I have examined all religions, and the result is that the Bible is the best book in the world."

— John Adams

Dr. Benjamin Rush . . . signer of the Declaration of In-dependence; Surgeon General the Continental Army; Rati� er of the U. S. Constitution; “Father of American Medicine;” Treasurer of the U. S. Mint; “Father of Public Schools Under � e Constitution.”

"� e Gospel of Jesus Christ prescribes the wisest rules for just conduct in every situation of life. Happy they who are enabled to obey them in all situations! . . . My only hope of salvation is in the in� nite transcendent love of God mani-fested to the world by the death of His Son upon the Cross. Nothing but His blood will wash away my sins [Acts 22:16]. I rely exclusively upon it. Come, Lord Jesus! Come quickly! [Revelation 22:20]

"I do not believe that the Constitution was the o� spring of inspiration, but I am as satis� ed that it is as much the work of a Divine Providence as any of the miracles recorded in the Old and New Testament.

"� e Bible contains more knowledge necessary to man in his present state than any other book in the world.

"� e Bible, when not read in schools, is seldom read in any subsequent period of life… � e Bible… should be read in our schools in preference to all other books because it contains the greatest portion of that kind of knowledge which is calculated to produce private and public happiness."

— Dr. Benjamin Rush

Noah Webster . . . Revolutionary Soldier; Judge; Leg-islator; Educator; “Schoolmaster to America”:

"� e Christian religion is the most important and one of the � rst things in which all children under a free government ought to be instructed. No truth is more evident than that the Christian religion must be the basis of any government intended to secure the rights and privileges of a free people.

"� e Bible is the chief moral cause of all that is good and the best corrector of all that is evil in human society – the best book for regulating the temporal concerns of men."

— Noah Webster

Elias Boudinot . . . President of Congress; Signed � e Peace Treaty to End � e American Revolution;

"Let us enter on this important business under the idea that we are Christians on whom the eyes of the world are now turned… [L]et us earnestly call and beseech Him, for Christ’s sake, to preside in our councils. . . . We can only depend on the all powerful in� uence of the Spirit of God,"

— Elias Boudinot

John Jay . . . president of Congress; Diplomat; Author of the Federalist Papers;

"By conveying the Bible to people . . . we certainly do them a most interesting act of kindness. We thereby enable them to learn that man was originally created and placed in a state of happiness, but, becoming disobedient, was subjected to the degradation and evils which he and his posterity have since experienced. � e Bible will also inform them that our gracious Creator has provided for us a Re-deemer in whom all the nations of the earth should be blessed – that this Redeemer has made atonement “for the sins of the whole world,”

— John Jay

� e God of Peace

Peace seems to elude the nations of the world. People long for peace. Perhaps peace is not easily de� ned but when you lack peace in your life, you long for it, seek it, and cherish it. The Merriam-Webster Dictionary de� nes peace as “a state of calm and quiet; esp: public security under law. Freedom from disturbing thoughts or emo-tions.” In many scriptures the apostle Paul referred to God as the God of Peace. In his prayer for the church in � essalonica, Paul prayed, “Now may the God of Peace Himself, sanctify you com-pletely and may your whole spirit, soul, and body be pre-served blameless at the

coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.” (I Thessalonians 5:23; Romans 16:20)

Centuries ago, God gave a fearful, beleaguered man from an obscure family in Israel a revelation of the God of Peace that changed him into a mighty man of valor and brought deliverance to his nation that had been ha-rassed and plundered for years by the surrounding nations. The Angel of the Lord appeared to Gideon and revealed His name as Jehovah Shalom — � e Lord is Peace. (Judges 6:23-24) You can have an encounter with the God of Peace that will trans-form your life and � ll you with God’s Peace. Follow Gideon’s example in Judges 6.

CRY OUT TO JESUS. � e Israelites were starving. � e Midianites would wait until harvest time and descend on them, plundering and de-stroying their crops and cattle. “So Israel was greatly impoverished because of the Midianites and the children of Israel cried out to the Lord.” (Judges 6:6) Cry out to Jesus. He is mighty to save. I’ve got God’s number on speed dial — Jeremiah 33:3. We have this end time promise, “� at whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Joel 2:28-32; Acts 2:21)

LISTEN TO GOD’S PROPHETS. God sent a prophet to Israel who gave them God’s Word. (Judges 6:7-10) He told them the reason they were being plun-dered by the enemy was that they had not obeyed the voice of God. He admon-ished them not to fear. He has spoken to us through His Word. (Isaiah 9:6-7; 52:7; 23:6; Psalm 119:165) Do you have God’s Peace? Listen, obey, and trust Him.

SEE YOURSELF AS GOD SEES YOU. Don’t believe the

enemy’s lies. Gideon thought God had forsaken them and the days of miracles were over. (Judges 6:13) In fear, Gideon was hiding from the enemy, trying to thresh grain. The angel of the Lord ap-peared and called him a mighty man of valor and assured him that God would be with him. (Judges 6:11-12) Believe who God says you are! (Romans 8:37; I Corin-thians 1:30)

GO FORWARD IN THE PRESENCE AND POWER OF GOD. (Judges 6:14-17) God has your back! God is your strength and might! Declare it! (Philippians 4:13) Receive God’s peace that “passes all understanding.” (Philippians 4:6-7) If God is for you and with you, you can’t lose.

THERE MUST BE A PEACE OFFERING. In ac-cordance with the law of God, Gideon sacri� ced a ram and o� ered the blood on an altar for a peace offering. (Judges 6:18-22) Christ Jesus is called the Lamb of God. He is our peace. Man became estranged from God through sin. � e guilt and sin that separates us from God can only be atoned for by the blood of Christ, “But now in Christ Jesus, you, who once were far off, have been brought near by the blood of Christ. For He Himself is our peace, who has made both one and has broken down the middle wall of separation.’ (Ephesians 2:13-14, 17)

TEAR DOWN THE IDOLS IN YOUR LIFE. � ere can be no peace unless

Christ is pre-eminent. (Judges 6:25-26)

BE FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT. Gideon re-ceived a boldness and power to do God’s will a� er the Holy Spirit came upon him. (Judges 6:33-32; Acts 1:8)

HEAR AND OBEY GOD’S VOICE. You don’t need a � eece like Gideon, when you have fellowship with Jesus. (Revelation 3:20)

Jesus is the Prince of Peace. When you make Him the King of your life, you will experience “the peace that passes all understanding.” (Philippians 4:7; Hebrews 7:2)
