More seeking food aid
By Jared Mauch
Kathy Korn, a volunteer at Agape Ministries in St. Marys, stocks shelves in the
. . .
The loss of government food assistance is contributing to a growing number of local families seeking help this holiday season.
The Agriculture Act of 2014 decreased Ohio's food stamp benefits, now known as SNAP, by $193 million for 1.847 million people or 16 percent of the population, according to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities.
Local food pantries are feeling the impact.
"We typically see people on food stamps come in the third or fourth week of the month because they exhaust their food stamps," said Kathy Bayless, executive director of Agape Ministries in St. Marys.
A recent study by the Ohio Association of Foodbanks found nearly 2 million people - one in six - receive food assistance from the association. About 70 percent of the 6,600 clients interviewed said during the past year they had to choose between buying food or paying utility bills.
"We have seen a 50 percent increase in people but the donations cannot match," said Lanna Samaniego, who operates a food pantry at the North American Indian Cultural Center in Celina.
She's also noticed an increase in the number of elderly seeking assistance, she said.
"At times there has been a line of people stretching to the office waiting to receive food," Samaniego said, adding she believes the influx of people is due to the economy.
Agape Ministries in 2013 helped more than 25,000 people and the number is projected to be near 28,000 this year, according to Bayless. Unlike some agencies, Agape also offers non-food items such as toilet paper, soap and diapers to the needy, she added.
The Parkway Ministerial Association this year has helped 250 families in the school district, the Rev. Thurlow "Chip" Steffy said.
Despite help with donations from Boy Scout Troop 98, Parkway Local Schools FFA program and Dollar General in Rockford the need is ongoing, Steffy said.
"We get the word out to area churches. Once people hear, they respond. People understand the need and want to help friends and neighbors," he said.
The food pantry of Holy Trinity Catholic Church, Coldwater, helps about 130 families each month, according to Jess Steinke, who operates the facility.
"People receive quite a bit, in the $40 range, for a family of four. They fill two boxes of goods, one for perishable and one for nonperishable goods," he said.
Donations from the church and individuals in the community have kept the pantry stocked this year, Steinke added.
The Rev. Tim Clutter of CALL Food Pantry in Celina said demand is up 15 percent this year; the pantry serves 650 families per month.
"More people come in around the holidays but we see an increase in the amount of giving in the months of November and December," Clutter said.
CALL also operates a backpack program that each Friday serves 260 kindergarten through fourth-grade students in Celina, Parkway and St. Henry schools.
A food pantry operated by Calvary Chapel Baptist Church, Minster, serves 40 families - about 130 people - each month, according to church secretary Vicky Slone. Keeping adequate supplies is not a problem due to the church's partnership with the West Ohio Food Bank of Lima.
The West Ohio Food Bank supplies more than 170 food pantries, soup kitchens and shelters throughout 11 counties in western Ohio. It purchases food and collects donated items that are stored in its 35,000-square-foot facility.
"If it were not for West Ohio Food Bank a lot of shelves would be bare," Samaniego said.
Edna Backs of OUR Home Family Resource Center in Celina said the agency also has experienced an increase in the number of people served each month. OUR Home has helped nearly 80 families per month this year and likely will exceed last year's yearly total of 838 families, she said.
Backs said the agency's pantry is kept stocked by West Ohio Food Bank, local food drives and individual donations.
OUR Home this year is sponsoring its 10th Angel Tree program, which provides gifts to children of income-eligible parents.

The San Francisco Bay Area has one of the most legendary music scenes in the United States. The legacy begins, of course, with the psychedelic madness of the Haight Ashbury's heyday in the 1960s. The hippies are long gone (most of them, at least), but new scenes — from hardcore punk to the ever-underrated Oakland rap scene — have variously stepped in to fill the void and keep Bay Area artists in the charts.
Here are 7 Bay Area artists to keep an eye on:
1. Tony Molina
DIY singer-songwriter Tony Molina is a familiar face within the Bay Area hardcore scene. The Millbrae, California, native first made his name as the frontman of the hardcore outfit Ovens, before beginning a solo career in 2014. As a solo artist, Molina makes straight-to-the-point power pop tunes that meld the sensibilities of some of the best earworm-writers in rock history, recalling, at times, anybody from the Byrds to the Beatles to Teenage Fanclub. His music is also notable for its unique brevity. His songs often last no longer than a minute, and all of his three albums clock in under 15 minutes total.
2. Heron Oblivion
A San Francisco band by way of Philadelphia, Heron Oblivion are a mind-melting psych band that instantly recall some of the best bands from San Francisco's past. Their loud, atmospheric and feedback-soaked rock and roll sounds like an updated Jefferson Airplane with flavors of the Velvet Underground and Crazy Horse, and singer/drummer Meg Baird's ghostly howls are eerily reminiscent of Grace Slick.
3. Deseos Primitivos
A Spanish-singing hardcore outfit out of Oakland, Deseos Primitivos show how to make high-intensity punk music while turning down the distortion in the process. They have an instantly classic sound and an energy that recalls the sounds that came out of London in the late '70s, or out of Spain in the early '80s (think Vulpes, for those who are familiar). In a town with a rich hardcore tradition, Deseos are a welcome addition.
4. Astronauts, etc.
Anthony Ferraro got his introduction to the music industry thanks to a gig in synth pop artist Toro y Moi's touring band. Now working as a solo musician under the moniker Astronauts, etc., Ferrano makes smooth and keenly orchestrated pop rock. There are hints of his former project in the laid-back funk rhythms throughout Astronauts, etc.'s debut album "Living In Symbol."
5. Fantastic Negrito
An artist with a truly unmatched story, Fantastic Negrito is the pseudonym of Xavier Amin Dphrepaulezz. Raised on the streets of Oakland, Dphrepaulezz signed a record deal with Interscope Records in the early '90s, only to see his opportunity fade after a catastrophic car crash left him in a coma for three weeks in 1999. A winning submission in NPR's 2015 Tiny Desk Concert Concert Contest and subsequent Tiny Desk Concert performance gave him a second chance at a music career, and he is taking full advantage. His impassioned blend of soul, funk, blues and rock is truly all his own, all carried by his incredible vocal work.
6. Hot Flash Heat Wave
Hot Flash Heat Wave's music is what California indie rock should sound like — washed out lo-fi baked under a ray of sunshine and drenched in a dose of reverb and fuzz. Their easy-going garage psych sound and poppy songwriting are equally likely to bring to mind Wavves and Mac Demarco.
7. Caleborate
A Sacramento native now based in Berkeley, Caleborate is a rapper on the rise who has performed alongside Kehlani and had G-Eazy guest on one of his tracks. His feel-good, laid back brand of rap is reminiscent of artists like Chance the Rapper and Mac Miller, and elevated by his effortless flow, clever lyrics and conscious subject matter.
Sam Benezra is a graduate of Ohio University with a B.A. in History from the Honors Tutorial College. He is a native of Brooklyn, New York. Sam enjoys writing on a variety of subjects, including science, music, politics, film. In his spare time, he enjoys traveling, playing guitar, and writing songs.

As legal weed keeps flooding the market place, most people are on the train of thought that we ought to try to make it more pure. New regulations and requirements have led markets in many legal or medically legal states to lean toward less junk in their cannabis. Less pesticides, less heavy metals, less fungi and bacteria, getting closer and closer to the perfect pure dank nugget.
So it's surprising that some revolutionaries in Colorado are suggesting we go in the exact opposite direction and mandate by law that growers add chemicals to their cannabis.
The new technology is being developed by the state's Institute for Cannabis Research at the Colorado State University-Pueblo. The purpose of adding artificial chemicals to your herb is to help keep tabs on plants in the state's seed-to-sale cannabis-tracking system.
According to the Denver Post, which reported the story, the additive would "monitor where a marijuana plant was grown and where it ends up."
The Institute for Cannabis Research has a weird relationship with the state government, Though it was created and funded partially by the state to help develop systems for tracking cannabis, it isn't really ruled by the state.
That explains why the bill which would have mandated adding these chemicals to cannabis product was rejected (twice) by the state legislature, but the Institute is going ahead with its research anyway.
Not surprisingly, everybody in the cannabis industry isn't thrilled about the idea. And many think they smell something fishy: the institute pursuing research that would be used for private gains more so than the public good.
"Colorado already has a robust seed-to-sale system for tracking cannabis," said Peter Marcus, spokesman for the Boulder-based pot shop chain Terrapin Care Station. Colorado indeed does already have a system called Metrc, which tracks cannabis plants by tagging them with a barcode.
"There is no need to risk consumer health and safety by spraying cannabis with an unknown substance for a tracking technology that won't ever gain traction," Marcus said. "This is why the Colorado Legislature twice rejected proposals to use taxpayer dollars to fund private research for a cannabis technology that will never be practical."

What you need:
A paper plate
A hole punch or a knitting needle
Sequins or Stickers to decorate
Olivia really enjoyed making her own dream catcher, finding it challenging and rewarding.
We divided this craft into a number of stages, with each offering a different skill to practice and explore….
Paint the paper plate in a colour of your crafty kids choice.
Once dry, cut a large circular hole out of the centre of the plate.
Using a knitting needle, pierce a number of evenly spaced holes around the central opening.
Decide where your top and bottom will be, piercing a single hole to signify the top ( to thread a single piece of yarn to hang the dream catcher) and then a further three evenly spaced holes at the bottom of the plate(to create the dangle bits).
By far Olivia's favourite part, begin threading the yarn across the central area to create a web effect, adding a few beads along the way.
Leave enough loose yarn at the start to enable it to be secured and knotted once all the threading is complete.
This is a great activity to help develop hand coordination and work those fine motor skills.
Stage three:
Once the threading is complete, tie a single piece of yarn through each of the bottom holes. Allow the yarn to dangle. Ideally, the two outer strings of yarn will be the same length, leaving the middle string slightly longer.
Thread a number of beads onto each individual piece of yarn. Finish the dangle with a feather, secure with a tight double knot at the end of the feather.
Thread the pointy end of the feather into a bead. This will prevent the feather twisting into random directions and will help to conceal the double knot.
Decorate the dream catcher with stickers, sequins, glitter – anything you have available.
Olivia's dream catcher has taken pride of place in her bedroom. Where will your crafty kids put their's?

In the latest Kinnarps' Trend Report, the company, together with leading experts within the fields of architecture, design and technology, has identified the workspace trends of the future. Mixing the elements highlighted in the Trend Report with the new products of Kinnarps Group, Nichetto Design Studio has created the visual installation of the "Workplace Wellness" exhibition during 2015 Milan Design Week.
Together with a healthy and refreshing food concept from the food designer Arabeschi di Latte, in the inspiring installation designed by Luca Nichetto, visitors can get an insight into how the workplace of the future will look. Many were the new products from Kinnarps' brands (Kinnarps, Drabert, MartinStoll, Materia, Skandiform and NC Nordic Care) on display in the exhibition hall in Milan.
In Kinnarps' new table range Nexus, adaptability and multi-functionality are in focus. The Nexus table range is available as individual desks or as a bench solution to allow users to adjust the table to suit their own needs: it can be used as a flexible space for many, where creative ideas emerge, or more private workspaces can be created by fitting screens between the tables. Through simple adjustments, the table can be adapted to suit most working situations and all types of working environments.
With the new task chair Capella, designed for Kinnarps by Johan Larsvall at Idesign, sitting is all about movement.
Capella has been fitted with Kinnarps' latest innovation Free Float system, whereby the seat and back move independently of each other, following the natural movement of the user.
The heart of Capella is the innovative FreeMotion™ mechanism, a newly-developed system where tiny, balanced micro-movements in the seat create tiny adjustment, to make the body feel as comfortable as possible.
The chair's ease of use and simple setting controls makes Capella the perfect chair to use in activity-based environments where it will be used by many different people.
In the Blanket sofa, designed by Front for the brand Materia, the blanket gets to spread out over the entire surface of the furniture. This playful role reversal gives the furniture an entirely unique identity, an identity which is further strengthened by the edge of the blanket having welt piping made of the same fabric as the sofa or from leather. Blanket is a move away from rigid formality towards something that is welcoming and comfortable.
The conference table Hal, designed for Materia by Carl Öjerstam ,is a new visual take on adjustable tables and provides an alternative to conventional T‐leg designs. The design has been adapted for ad‐hoc meetings, offering a smart solution that is expressive as a design without needing to sacrifice the table's stability. The design is based on the idea that the area covered by the legs adjusts in line with the height. Wheels are fitted to the legs, so when the table is raised, this increases the frame's load bearing area and provides more stability. Hal comes with either a round or rectangular table top.
The Deli chair, designed by Thomas Pedersen for the brand Skandiform and winner of the prestigious "Red Dot Award 2014″ for its product design, offers the kind of relaxation more usually associated with an armchair. It's often described as something of a happy hybrid – design and comfort that invite the user to linger a little longer. Now the addition of yet another underframe expands the chair's potential and extends its areas of use even further.
The brand Drabert presented Entrada successor, Entrada II, designed like its predecessor by Daniel Figueroa.
The task chair has been given new, even more user friendly controls and an updated appearance, tailored for the modern workplace! With its well thought ergonomics, Entrada II is shaped to give the best possible comfort. The seat is both height and depth adjustable to give optimal support for back, leg and thighs. As it is so user-friendly, Entrada II is also ideal in activity based working environments where different people in different types of working environments can easily use it.

Former Ohio State quarterback Tate Martell announced he is transferring to the University of Miami.
right back like we never left...— TATE MARTELL (@TheTateMartell) January 16, 2019
I'M A HURRICANE! 🙌🏼🌴 pic.twitter.com/6Dh0gu4fxD
Tight end Brevin Jordan and safety Bubba Bolden, both of whom attended Bishop Gorman High School in Las Vegas with Martell, were pictured in Martell's announcement tweet. Jordan attends Miami; Bolden said earlier this month that he will transfer from USC to Miami.
Martell redshirted his freshman season before backing up Dwayne Haskins in 2018, when he completed 23 passes for 269 yards and one touchdown while rushing for 128 yards and a pair of TDs.
He will have three more years of eligibility and, unless granted a waiver, will have to sit out the 2019 season.
Martell will join a Hurricanes team led by a new coach in Manny Diaz and a new offensive coordinator in Dan Enos.
Miami received good news Tuesday when wide receiver Jeff Thomas said he will return to the Hurricanes and not transfer to Illinois, as he had previously announced.

Following a report on care for older people in acute hospitals, Irene Oldfather reflects on its findings.
It is with some dismay that I read Healthcare Improvement Scotland's Audit of Care of Older People in Acute hospitals published last week.
In three hospitals, inspection staff found a lack of meaningful stimulation and activity for patients and across all hospitals inspected, staff were not completing food and fluid balance charts accurately or consistently.
This inspection audit comes some five years after the Scottish Parliament Cross Party Group on Alzheimer's, which I chaired, produced a report with recommendations on how we can improve the hospital experience of older people with Dementia.
The report recognised that with simple measures, we can save lives – minimising hospital moves, ensuring good hydration and nutrition, understanding the importance of exercise and stimulation.
We know that increased mortality rates, higher admission rates and functional decline are all associated with this vulnerable patient group who are particularly subject to adverse incidents in hospital.
The Report was launched in 2009 and was accepted in full by the Scottish Government. It should be operational in every Health Board in Scotland. So why do we still read of so many system failures?
Older and Wiser, Pressure for Change, Starved of Care, Remember I'm Still Me – previous Inspection Reports from the Care Inspectorate and the Mental Welfare Commission – all make for distressing reading. Regrettably despite a highly developed Policy Structure which includes the National Dementia Strategy, the Charter of Rights for People with dementia and their carers and the Dementia Standards, we still see Inspection Reports containing damning information about the care and treatment of our older people across all care settings.
The Dementia Carer Voices project, located within the Health and Social Care Alliance (the ALLIANCE), regularly receives reports of less than satisfactory care that falls far short of what would be expected in terms of the policy landscape.
Two things that can be concluded from this sorry story – clearly we are not talking about "one off" situations and we certainly don't need another "strategy". We have strategies coming out of our ears. As audit and monitoring is identifying, the central problem is that the gap between policy and implementation is wide. In fact not so much a gap, but a gulf.
Raising awareness, destigmatising dementia and creating a culture which values our old people is only a first step. Staff training is a huge issue and while Promoting Excellence, the skills framework to increase knowledge and understanding of dementia for health and social care workers, is beginning to kick in on the ground, as evidenced above, there is a way to go.
The role of caring for older people both paid and unpaid is undervalued in our society. We pay the lowest wages, with the worst conditions of service to those who look after our most vulnerable. We need to raise the profile and status of caring and pay wages and allowances commensurate to this. It is the right thing to do but in actual fact, the economic argument around keeping people well in their own home supported by carers who receive appropriate allowances, is incontrovertible.
As to institutional failures, it is time to get tough.
Frail older people are at risk but people with Alzheimer's and Dementia are at particular risk because of their communication difficulties. This makes it difficult for them to articulate how they are being treated. We rightly accept the importance of protecting children in our society – indeed we have an independent Commissioner for Children and Young People to protect their rights and give them a voice. We have yet to place the same value on people with dementia and frail older people.
Wales has for some years had an Independent Older Person's Commissioner, the present Commissioner is Sarah Rochira. She was a keynote speaker at the ALLIANCE's annual conference this year and challenged us to ask the question – what constitutes abuse – lack of nutrition, hydration, inappropriate restraint, no outdoor activity, waiting for a bedpan – and why are there so few prosecutions for elder abuse?
If we are not completing nutrition and hydration charts, how do we know how well someone has eaten, across changes in staff shifts?
When staff tell patients that they'll be there in five minutes with a bedpan – and five minutes becomes twenty minutes later, is this acceptable?
If we used inappropriate and disrespectful language towards ethnic minorities, we would rightly be branded racist. We have created a culture where such behaviour would not be tolerated and yet for older people this is identified as "an inspection area for improvement". The recent case where someone with dementia had 106 care assistants through the door in less than a year is a classic example of system failure. Can we be certain that there is nowhere in Scotland where this happening today?
There needs to be what might feel like an uncomfortable discussion about sanctions and prosecutions. It is a language that many politicians and professionals don't like. Interestingly it's a language with which the Welsh Commissioner seems comfortable.
A clear message about the parameters of inappropriate and inadequate care and treatment of older people in Scotland is overdue. When does inadequate become criminal? How many prosecutions have taken place for elder abuse? We have no qualms about discussing these matters in relation to children so why are we so reticent to act on behalf of our older people?
There also has to be independent accountability in the system to ensure that change happens. Maybe its time to look to the Welsh Commissioner's Office for a solution?

Shane Duffy will be hoping for his first taste of tournament action when the Republic of Ireland take on Italy in their final group game this evening.
The Rovers defender has so far been a frustrated spectator in France, forced to watch on from the sidelines as Martin O'Neill's men have drawn 1-1 with Sweden and lost 3-0 to Belgium.
Tonight, the Irish come up against an Italian team who top Group E with six points following victories over Belgium (2-0) and Sweden (1-0).
Victory in Lille will ensure that Ireland finish at least third and four points would guarantee their place in the last 16.
Ireland could still finish second, if they win and Sweden also win – with Ireland's winning margin at least two goals greater than Sweden's.
Should they fail to beat Italy, who have already qualified as group winners, then Ireland are out.
Duffy will hope to follow in the footsteps of Rovers team-mate Corry Evans, whose Northern Ireland side last night qualified for the knockout stage.

The Tomb of the Cynic was a tomb situated in a hill in the west of Uab Nome in Egypt.
By the 1st century BCE, the tomb was largely abandoned and became home to numerous lions and vultures outside the tomb. Around 48 BCE, it was explored by the Medjay Bayek of Siwa, who recovered numerous silica and deciphered an Old Kingdom stele within.[1]
