B Elzabeth Sam GszCmmunt News SeceAn attempt to set up misde-

meanor charges for adults whoprovide parties for under-agedrinkers failed to pass out of theSenate State Affairs CommitteeJan. 23 at the S.D. Legislature inPierre.

The measure failed by one vote,following sometimes emotional de-bate, but backers vowed to keepworking on the bill to make it ac-ceptable to lawmakers.

Sen. Larry Lucas, D-Mission,said there currently is no defini-tion for the term social host, butis generally agreed that it refers tosomeone who provides the locationbut not necessarily the alcohol fora party.

It is not a defense, said Lucas,for the adult to say that he was notpresent at the party.

Joyce Glynn, West River rancherwith her husband, Roger, relatedthe story of how their son, Michael,lost his life following his 2006 highschool graduation and attendingthe subsequent party whereunder-age teens were drinking.

He died as the result of a one-ve-hicle rollover where he was ejectedfrom the car.

other teenagers died under similarcircumstances.President Obama, noted Glynn,

has said that the first task of so-ciety is to keep our children safe.She questioned whether we aredoing everything possible to dothat.

She discussed the three compo-nents to keep children safe as edu-cation, legislation and enforce-ment. It is clear, she said, that it isillegal for anyone under the age of21 to drink alcohol, and called thisbill another tool to be used.

With 5,894 minors charged withpossession and 416 misdemeanorcharges against adults, and 200 ofthose dismissed, Glynn said weare sending a bad message tokids.

Glynn said the Attorney Gen-erals office has voiced its supportfor the bill, as well as the SouthDakota States Attorneys Associa-tion.

Supporting testimony camefrom the Concerned Women ofSouth Dakota.

However, the bills current lan-guage was criticized by the StateFarm Insurance Company lobbyistDick Tieszen, and RogerTellinghuisen, lobbyist for S.D.Trial Lawyers Association, as well

as several members of the commit-tee.Sen. Corey Brown, R-Gettys-

burg, questioned whether that oneadditional law would havechanged anything that happenedthe night that Glynns son died.

Sen. Larry Rhoden, R-UnionCenter, also questioned whetherthe law would be effective.

The bill died 5-4 and was movedto the 41st day.

After the meeting, Glynn said Ireally thought with the States At-torney Association and the Attor-ney Generals Association, the peo-ple who have to enforce these lawsand know the laws inside and outthat are on the books, and whetherthey are enforceable or not andwhether they are enough or not, Ireally thought their backing to thelegislators would say you folks arethe expert in this field and so weare going to rely on your recom-mendation.

That didnt happen, she said.However, Glynn said we will

never know if this would keepsomeone from having a party attheir house.

She said she will continue tofight for a law such as this.

A healthy herd of about 800bison can be found within Bad-lands National Park, about 10miles west of Wall, S.D.

The expanse of prairie grassesand rugged spires of Badlands Na-tional Park inspires reverence andnostalgia, and these bison are anintegral part of Badlands history.

An iconic symbol of the NationalPark Service, American bison canstill face threats even in these pro-tected places.

On November 15, 2010, KeithJorgenson of Green Bay, Wisc., il-legally shot and killed a mule deerbuck in Pennington County, S.D.

This started an investigationwhich uncovered how Joseph Wil-met, also of Green Bay, shot,killed, and butchered a large bullbison in Badlands National Park.

A cooperative law enforcementeffort with Pennington CountySheriffs Department, SouthDakota Game, Fish, and Parks,United States Fish and WildlifeService, United States AttorneysOffice, and National Park Serviceresulted in Wilmet being sen-tenced on October 5, 2012, andJorgenson being sentenced on Jan-uary 7, 2013, for the unlawful tak-ing of wildlife.

Badlands Superintendent EricBrunnemann stated, We salutethe agencies that investigated thiscase, prosecuted and gave us these

Wsconsn man sentenced n

unlawful takng of wldlfeconvictions. Two years and count-less hours of investigative work ex-emplifies the dedication of theseofficers. This is government thatworks.

Jorgenson disclosed that he andWilmet had been scouting for ani-mals in the days leading up to theNovember 15, 2010 discovery ofthe buffalo and deer.

"The prosecution of these twomen should serve as a notice toanyone involved in poaching in ourstate. We take wildlife crime seri-ously and we will continue our ef-forts to work with our law enforce-ment partners to investigate andprosecute these offenses, said US

Attorney Brendan Johnson.Badlands Chief Ranger Casey

Osback believes that solid policework in the early phases of this

case resulted in this victory overpoaching in our national parks.Jorgenson and Wilmet were alsofound with carcasses from severaladditional deer. They stated theytook the wildlife in the vicinity ofBadlands and the town of Scenic,S.D.

The possession of traps or nets isnot allowable within Badlands.The taking of wildlife is an illegalact, as is [p]ossessing unlawfullytaken wildlife or portions thereof(36 CFR2.2(a)(3)). The NationalPark Service mission, as identifiedin the 1916 Organic Act is charged

with the protection of natural andhistoric objects and the wild life innational parks. In most park units,hunting is specifically called out asa prohibited recreational use.Hunting is welcomed on some fed-eral and state properties. Respon-sible hunters research regulationsand follow appropriate guidelines,a practice Jorgenson and Wilmetdid not honor.

Jorgenson was sentenced to oneyear of probation and a $1,000fine. He was ordered to pay $25 tothe Victim Assistance Fund and$2,500 in restitution.

Wilmet was previously sen-tenced on October 5, 2012.

By working together, the variousland management and law en-forcement agencies involved wereable to successfully work within

their differing missions to bringthese poachers to justice. Badlandsstaff is extremely grateful that theperpetrators of the buffalo slaugh-ter were convicted.

Badlands is one of four mid-westNPS units with American bison onthe landscape.

Brunnemann stated that Any-one who has seen these majesticanimals knows they are looking atour national history, our nationalicon.

Hald DelbdgeHarold Dean Delbridge was

born and raised in the Howes area.He married Karen Smith on Janu-ary 16, 1966, and they went towork for the Bar VO ranch atQuinn. In the fall of 1967, Karensfather needed help on his ranch sothey moved there to help him.

After her father passed away in1968, her brothers took over theoperation of the ranch and Haroldand Karen moved to his grandfa-ther Kellogs place south of UnionCenter, where they ranched for thenext eight years.

Harold left the ranch in 1976 toattend Bible College in Cleveland,Tenn. He studied there until 1979.

At that time they moved to CoalSprings and began pastoring a

church there. This was Haroldsfirst pastorate and they were thereuntil 1985 when they moved fromCoal Springs to the Prairie BibleCommunity Church where he pas-tored for 23 years. Three years agohe started the Stoneville CountryChurch where he is still pastoring.Harold has also pastored the ElmSprings Community Church since1987.

Harold started rodeo announc-ing and auctioneering in 1983.Dave Lensegrav encouraged himto go to auctioneer school at Bis-marck, N.D., where Truman Kon-sile had the River Basin AuctionSchool, an auctioneering and rodeoannouncing college. Harold andLes Lensegrav went to that school.When they came back they startedthe Open Meadow Auction Servicewhich they operated for 13 years.In 1984, the Faith Stock Show con-tracted Harold to announce their

rodeo. That was the rodeo thatTruman Konsile had announcedfor years, and he said, Isnt thatlife, you train somebody and theytake your job. Harold announcedFaith Stock Show for 24 years. Hisfavorite part of announcing rodeoswas encouraging the young peoplein the sport. In the year 2000,Harold and Karen had the oppor-tunity to go to the National FinalsRodeo and had the pleasure ofwatching the final performance. In

the saddle bronc event there werefour young cowboys that Haroldhad watched grow up. That was avery satisfying experience for him.Harold said, The greatest fun Ihad was young peoples rodeos. En-couraging the young cowboys andcowgirls.

Harold and Karen have lived atRed Owl for the past 18 years.Since 1979, Harold has had a fulltime ministry. In his spare time he

day works for ranchers in the area.He says this has been a betterministry than the pulpit. It has af-forded him the opportunity to min-ister at weddings and funerals.Being a minister in the rodeo an-nouncing field, watching the cow-boys and cowgirls grow up, has ledto many weddings.

In reminiscing, Harold tells of awedding he was to perform. Whenhe arrived to perform the wedding,the bride had forgotten to bringthe marriage license. When Haroldasked her what she planned to doabout that, she told him that theywould be at the rodeo next week.They could go ahead with the wed-ding today and then they wouldbring the marriage license andtheir witnesses and get it signed atthe rodeo, one week later. Thingslike that only happen in cowboycountry.

One of the most challengingpoints in Harolds life was while hewas pastoring at Coal Springs. Hewent there in June, and in Augustperformed his first wedding. Twoyears later he had to bury thatcouples 18 month-old-daughter.He said, It lets you know thepower of God, how you get throughsome of those deals.

Harold is an active member inseveral organizations in the area.The Catalyst Club in Rapid City,South Dakota Stock Growers,South Dakota Farm Bureau, Fel-lowship of Christian Cowboys, andCentral Meade County Commu-nity Center Board.

Harold had a funny story to tellon himself. He was co-announcerat the South Dakota Rodeo Finalsin Sioux Falls. His job was to plugthe sponsors while horseback inthe arena. A bareback rider had

just completed his ride, so Harold

rode in to announce the sponsor ofthe bareback riding and the bronccame alongside Harolds horse andstarted bucking. In trying to pullhis horse up, hang on to the micro-phone, and juggle a handful of pa-pers, things got away from him.Papers all over the arena floor. Theaudience loved it and have proba-bly never forgot it, and the otherannouncer had a big time with it.But, like Harold said, at least he

didnt fall off.Having retired from his rodeo

announcing career, Harold looksback on a couple highlights of thatcareer. One was when the Wall Re-gional High School Rodeo Clubgave him a belt buckle when he re-tired after announcing their rodeofor 23 years. Another was whenthe Faith Stock Show also gavehim a buckle after 24 years of an-nouncing their rodeo. Harold said,It really lets you know how muchpeople appreciate your work.

Harold and Karen have fourchildren, two boys and two girls,and 12 grandchildren. Arlen, BlackHawk, Chad, Cheyenne, Wyo.,

Amanda, Anchorage, Alaska; anddaughter, Candace, ThunderButte.

In looking to the future, Haroldsaid that in his ministry he wantsto prepare people for the life

ahead. By that, he means he wantsthem to come to know the power ofGod and the relationship they canhave with Him.

When we look back over theyears at Harolds reputation, itshow us that he has given aboveand beyond of himself, assistingspiritually and physically, a largenumber of families in our end ofthe state. I got the feeling from

just visiting with Harold, that tobe ministering to and workingwith the children and grandchil-dren of those parents he minis-tered to and worked with yearsago, gives him a real feeling ofthankfulness and satisfaction. Inall fairness to Harold, I must tellyou that in this short presentationit is not possible for me to paint acomplete picture of his accomplish-ments. But for just a normal look-ing cowboy, he has sure made an

impression in our communities.

I often find myself thinkinglongingly of warm places aboutthis time of year. I think of desertsand tropical islands and thoselucky countries in the southernhemisphere currently enjoying thelong days of summer. I know ourtime will come, sooner rather thanlater, but the cold winter days can

go so slowly.If you too are yearning for warmsummer days, perhaps we canoffer you a small mini-vacation atthe Library. We have lots of booksabout summer and warm places.

Id like to call out special noticeto In a Sunburned Country by BillBryson.

This is a wonderful book that ispart travelogue, part comedy, partencyclopedia about the authorsvisit to Australia.

Australia is a country that alsoenjoys its designation as an island

Wall Community Library newscontinent. The people are warmlywelcoming and the history is var-ied and interesting.

Perhaps one of the most strikingparts of Australia is its peculiarwildlife. Australia has some of themost lethal animals found on theplanet.

Bryson delights in exploring theland, including its cultural andnatural history. His delightful, en-

gaging writing style will have youlaughing along with him and youwont even realize how much youare learning about the land downunder.

And just perhaps, you will feel alittle bit warmer when you finish.

It occurred to me several yearsago that while 80 to 90% of my de-cisions had turned out to be quitepositive, there was still the other10 to 20% that did not have such agreat outcome. I could see therewas room for improvement, and be-came quite motivated to learn howto make more effective decisions. Ibegan to seriously study how otherpeople make their decisions. look-ing for any tool or system that Icould use to aid me in becoming abetter decision maker.

Over the years, I have adopted,adapted and applied a number oftools and systems that have re-sulted in making better decisions.I am eager to share a couple of mydiscoveries with you.

First of all, I have learned neverto jump into making a decision,without first taking time to gatherall the facts. I must do my due dili-gence, to make sure there is noth-

ing hiding under the rocks, if I amto make really good decisions.

Secondly, I have realized the ad-vantage of looking at the issue froma number of different perspectives.If a decision will affect others-andmost of them do-I make it a pointto get their opinions, thoughts, andsuggestions regarding the decisionI have to make. The smartest thingI have learned to do is trust mywife and daughters' intuition. I re-ally do believe that females havebeen given a special gift of intu-ition, and it is my job as a husbandand father to listen to their gutfeeling about things. Honestly,trusting Vicki's, Tasha's, and Elie'sintuition has never failed me yet.

Making well thought out deci-sions and taking action on them ismuch easier, and the outcome moreprofitable, when I have the confi-dence and assurance that comeswithtaking all the facts into considera-tion and engaging others in theprocess. Being humble enough tohear and listen to what othersshare may be a bit difficult attimes, and yet it is so vital to hav-ing success in the decision makingprocess.

Take time to apply these simplestrategies to your decision makingprocess and you too, will be empow-ered to make even better decisionsthan you did before.

Posted By Pastor Rcky Kurth Jesus Christ was declared to be the Son

of God according to the spirit of holiness, by theresurrection from the dead (Rom. 1:3,4).

What does it mean that the Lords resurrection declared Himto be the Son of God according to the spirit of holiness? Well,have you ever heard it said that there is a difference betweenthe letterof the law and the spiritof the law? When you drive66 m.p.h. in a 65 m.p.h. zone, you are breaking the letter ofthe law, but you are not breaking the spirit of the law. The spiritof the law is for you to drive safely and responsibly. This iswhy most police officers will not ticket you for going one mileper hour over the speed limit.

The letter of the law of holiness is expressed well in

Proverbs 17:15:He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condem-neth the just, even they both are abomination to theLord.

But isnt that what God did at the Cross, when He con-demned that Just One (Acts 22:14) and justified wicked sin-ners such as ourselves? In so doing, He surely broke the letterof the law of holiness.

Or did He? For those who would argue that God was notacting in accord with the law of holiness, we would reply thatwhen God the Father took your sins and placed them on theLord Jesus Christ at Calvary, He justly condemned the Onewho was made wicked (II Cor. 5:21). Then when you believedthe gospel, God took His righteousness and put it on you, en-abling Him to justify the ones who were made the very right-eousness of God in Christ (II Cor. 5:21). The resurrection ofChrist then proved that this was also done in perfect accordwith the spirit of holiness, for Christs sacrifice surely satisfiedthe just demands of Gods righteousness.

If you havent yet trusted Christ as your Savior, however,God has not yet given you the righteousness that is availableonly in Christ. Speaking of the Lord Jesus, the Apostle Paulsays,

In whom we have redemption through His blood,the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of Hisgrace (Eph. 1:7).

The forgiveness of sins purchased by Christs blood is onlyavailable in Him. If you are not in Christ, you are still in tres-passes and sins (Eph. 2:1). Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ,and thou shalt be saved(Acts 16:31).

UNCErTAiNTy" WHENiNvESTiNG

Richard Wahlstromwww.edwardjones.com

In Europe, the financial crisisdrags on. Chinas economic growthhas slowed from wow to ho-hum. Here at home, weve seenheated political debates over taxes,spending and deficit reduction.

Taken together, these factors havecreated a fog of uncertainty thathas left many investors in the darkabout their next moves. But is thisfog really impenetrable or canyou, as an individual investor, seethrough it to a place of clarity?

To do so, you first need to realizethat while the events mentionedabove are certainly not insignifi-cant, they also arent the key de-terminants of investors success.While these types of stories domi-nate the headlines, they also tendto obscure some of the factors thatfrequently do play a bigger role inthe investment world. And rightnow, these factors are actuallysomewhat encouraging.

Consider the following:The economy continues to

grow. The economy isnt goinggangbusters, but it is growing.

And thanks to historically low in-

terest rates, consumer debt pay-ments have dropped significantly,leaving people with more money tospend elsewhere. Typically, thishigher spending tends to con-tribute to future economic growth.

Corporate earnings remainsolid. Many companies haveshown strong earnings over thepast couple of years and earn-ings tend to be a key driver of stockprices. When their earnings arestrong, companies may use some ofthe profits to repurchase shares oftheir own stock, thereby reducingthe number of shares held by thepublic which means that even ifprofits remain the same, the earn-ings per share should increase.

Stocks are still attractivelypriced. As measured by the price-to-earnings ratio (P/E), stocks arestill priced relatively well. Whileno one can predict stock marketperformance, this may be a goodbuying opportunity.

Of course, all these indicators oftodays investment environmentcan change over time; at somepoint, they may well be not so pos-itive. But if you truly want to see

through the fog of uncertainty thatalways develops with unsettlingpolitical or economic news, youllwant to follow these basic, all-weather guidelines:

Stay diversified. A diversifiedportfolio can help protect you fromthe harshest effects of marketvolatility. (Keep in mind, though,that diversification, cant guaran-tee profits or protect against loss.)

Rebalance your portfolio. Overtime, your investment mix canshift, even without your intent.For example, some of your hold-ings can appreciate so much invalue that they take on a greaterpercentage of your portfolio thanyou had intended. Thats why itsimportant to periodically rebal-ance your portfolio so that it fitsyour investment objectives andrisk tolerance.

Stay focused on the long term.

When confronted with short-termmarket fluctuations or scary head-lines, many people overreact and

make ill-advised investment deci-sions. You can avoid these behav-iors by staying focused on the longterm.

Invest in companies that arecharting their own course. Wheninvesting for the equity portion ofyour portfolio, look for companieswith the ability to prosper in alleconomic environments.

With patience and perseverance,and by focusing on the key factors

outlined above, you can navigatethe fog of uncertainty and concen-trate on your long-term invest-ment goals. So dont be afraid toset sail.

"It is never easy when you gointo overtime in a game, and endup losing by just a couple points. Iknow the girls were disappointedthat we came up short, as that is anormal reaction when you have agroup of girls who care so muchabout not only the game of basket-ball but how their personal per-

formances were too.No basketball team is perfect, as

we all make mistakes, but the girlsneed to focus on the good thingsthat happened throughout thegame and maybe even ask them-selves what we can even do betternext time," added Coach Kier.Stats:WJv: 12 7 4 5 3 = 31kJv: 9 2 4 13 5 = 33 Scoring: Linn 4-7 0-1 8, JosieBlasius 1-1 0-0 1, Huether 2-7 0-04, Monica Bielmaier 1-10 0-0 5,Katy Bielmaier 0-3 0-0 1, SamSteffen 2-12 1-2 5, Westby 1-2 0-03, Taylor Richter 1-2 0-0 3.
