Pipe Dreams to be<br />
Shown in O’Neill<br />
Everyone is welcome to a public<br />
screening of the movie Pipe Dreams<br />
at 7PM at the new O'Neill Community<br />
Center on December 11, 2011. There<br />
will be a viewing in <strong>Stuart</strong> coming<br />
soon. Time and date will be announced<br />
soon. Pipe Dreams was produced<br />
by Jane Kelly Kosek and Leslie<br />
Iwerks.<br />
This is a film about the ongoing<br />
debate of the Keystone XL Pipeline, -<br />
a 40-minute documentary that explores<br />
the social, political and environmental<br />
impacts of the $7 billion construction<br />
of the proposed Keystone XL<br />
Pipeline. This movie is directed by<br />
Academy Award nominated filmmaker<br />
Leslie Iwerks and narrated by Daryl<br />
Hannah (who was also arrested in<br />
Washington D.C. August 30th for protesting<br />
the pipeline), this film marks<br />
the third outing on the subject by<br />
Iwerks, with the most imminent potential<br />
to influence a national decision.<br />
This film uncovers the realities<br />
behind building this 1,980-mile pipeline<br />
through the heartland of America.<br />
Through interviews with landowners,<br />
politicians, scientists, engineers, environmental<br />
groups, activists and more,<br />
it discusses the increasing ramifications<br />
of America’s reliance on Canada’s<br />
tar sands, as well as the sacrifices<br />
on people, wildlife and the environment<br />
in the long term. On the opposite<br />
side, it will examine Keystone’s<br />
proposed job creations, the land reclamation,<br />
projected revenue for landowners<br />
and taxpayers, reliance on<br />
foreign oil, and pipeline safety history<br />
in America. In addition, the film will<br />
take a look at the existing Keystone I<br />
Pipeline, its ongoing leaks, and the<br />
personal stories of landowners whose<br />
land it has affected.<br />

Parkside Manor News<br />
November 28-December 3, 2011<br />
Greetings from Parkside Manor!!<br />
Monday morning was the beginning of<br />
all the holiday decorating for us. The<br />
FFA members from the <strong>Stuart</strong> Public<br />
School came to help us get in the holiday<br />
spirit by putting up the four big<br />
trees that we have. We really do appreciate<br />
these kids and their teachers<br />
doing this. The residents sat in the living<br />
room and watched the festivities<br />
going on. Each tree is different and<br />
each one is very beautiful. Judy was<br />
busy in the beauty shop today. Exercise<br />
was done right before lunch. More<br />
decorating was done after lunch and<br />
the residents helped with this. Everyone<br />
enjoyed social hour and later<br />
watched a music video.<br />
Tuesday morning Agnes Krobot<br />
prayed the Rosary with the residents.<br />
Bible stories were read to the other<br />
residents. A couple games of Wii were<br />
also played this morning. In the afternoon,<br />
the Knights of Columbus were<br />
here to host the weekly Bingo. The<br />
folks who were here to help were K.<br />
and Betty Barritt, Jim and Kathy<br />
Chvala, Gerald Fahrenholz, and Bob<br />

Tielke. The helpers enjoyed<br />
some refreshments with the<br />
residents for social hour. We<br />
were all happy to have Sandy<br />
bring in her baby to visit everyone.<br />
We all like little children.<br />
Wednesday morning the<br />
crafters met in the activity room<br />
and cut out lots of socks, mittens<br />
and trees to place on the<br />
tree. Many Christmas traditions<br />
were read about and discussed.<br />
It was really interesting<br />
to see how the traditions that we<br />
are all used to got started. In the<br />
afternoon, peanut butter and jelly<br />
sandwiches were made by the cooking<br />
group. These were served for<br />
social hour. Later, we watched the<br />
first Christmas movie of the year.<br />
Judy was again working in the<br />
beauty shop today.<br />
Thursday morning was spent on<br />
a coloring project. We colored some<br />
beautiful Christmas scenes. Exercise<br />
was done to the music tape.<br />
Diana was doing hairstyles today.<br />
There was more decorating going on<br />
in the afternoon before Thirsty<br />
Thursday. There was a large crowd<br />
on hand for this favorite activity<br />
again today. Today, we served<br />
meatballs and onion rings along with<br />
all the favorite beverages.<br />
Pastor John Ryding from Christ<br />
Lutheran Church was here to<br />
lead the Protestant church service<br />
Friday morning. Elaine<br />
Schorn played the organ for the<br />
hymns that were sung. Most of<br />
the ladies had their nails freshly<br />
polished today. Father Luke<br />
Steffes was here to celebrate<br />
Mass with the residents and<br />
people from the community in<br />
the afternoon. Ice cream was<br />
served for social hour, and later,<br />
we enjoyed some special music.<br />
Claudine was here to host the<br />
Saturday social hour. We appreciate<br />
her many years of volunteering<br />
to be with the residents<br />
on these Saturdays. There<br />
were many visitors in the facility<br />
during the weekend and we are<br />
always so grateful for each and<br />
everyone. Please feel free to<br />
come visit when you have time.<br />

2011 North Central <strong>Nebraska</strong> Public Health Banquet<br />
O’Neill – ―Pure Performance‖ was the topic presented by John Underwood,<br />
featured speaker of the North Central <strong>Nebraska</strong> Public Health Banquet on Friday,<br />
November 4 th . Over 135 people gathered from across the far reaches of<br />
Antelope, Boyd, Brown, Cherry, Holt, Keya Paha, Knox, Pierce and Rock<br />
Counties to listen to Mr. Underwood convey his research and experiences<br />
about the field of athletics and social drug use.<br />
John Underwood, President<br />
and Founder of the<br />
American Athletic Institute, is a<br />
former NCAA All-American,<br />
International-level distance<br />
runner and World Masters<br />
Champion and has coached or<br />
advised more than two dozen<br />
Olympians including World and<br />
Olympic Champions. He holds<br />
three International Olympic<br />
Solidarity diplomas for coaching<br />
and has been a crusader<br />
for drug-free sport at all levels.<br />
He has conducted the only<br />
physiological case study, of the residual effect of alcohol on elite athletic performance.<br />
The American Athletic Institute has forged a reputation as the experts<br />
in the field of athletics and social drug use.<br />
John talked about how the American Athletic Institute’s Community Programs<br />
teach individuals strategies and techniques to constantly address the<br />
ever changing and growing influences that increase risk for our youth. These<br />
programs are designed to take lessons learned in sport: teamwork, collective<br />
responsibility, discipline, loyalty, family, trust and bring these values into the<br />
community.<br />
He explained that alcohol use among adolescent athletes is fairly high, but<br />
the problem is complex. Young athletes may be more likely to abuse alcohol<br />
than their non-athlete peers and more likely to suffer behavioral and psychosocial<br />
consequences as a result of drinking. They are also more prone to binge<br />
drinking. John believes that education and prevention strategies should focus<br />
on physiological, behavioral and psychosocial consequences. At this juncture,<br />
these problems must be confronted in an immediate fashion. They must in all<br />
instances be well documented, including first time episodes.<br />
More than any other group of adolescents, we have a compelling reason for<br />
athletes not to drink, health and performance. Alcohol, a metabolic poison has<br />
only negative effects on all physiological parameters. This can be our initial<br />
rationale for non-use.<br />
The following are some of the additional benefits for student-athletes who<br />
choose not to drink alcohol:<br />
Academic or athletic performance will not be hampered;<br />
The risk of breaking school rules or the law is greatly reduced;<br />
Serious and life threatening problems related to being alcohol impaired<br />
such as drunk driving and sexual decision- making, injury, arrest,<br />
death are eliminated or reduced;<br />
There is no risk of becoming addicted to alcohol; and,<br />
The ability to develop appropriate life skills such as stress management,<br />
problem solving, conflict resolution, interacting with others, and goal setting<br />
is enhanced.<br />
Most young people would only be influenced by the first two benefits, as<br />
they are more tangible and more immediate. The latter three fall into the category<br />
of ―not me.‖<br />

North Central Public Health Banquet<br />
(Continued from page 7)<br />
John concluded with the thought that high school sports do matter! High<br />
school athletics are an integral part of many communities throughout the<br />
United States. The local sports teams are the focal point of community life: it’s<br />
a source of pride, a spot for social gathering, and where initial perception of a<br />
community begins; because of this performance matters; the performance of<br />
the athletes as well as their behavior. The choice by student-athletes to use<br />
drugs greatly affects both of these domains. The athletes are usually the leaders<br />
in the school and the way the athletes go the school goes.<br />
The 2011 recipient of the ―Dr. Richard Raymond Public Health Champion<br />
Award‖ was awarded to Kate Kunz, with the SAFE KIDS Chapter of North<br />
Central <strong>Nebraska</strong>.<br />
Kate represents the definition of a public health champion through her<br />
work of keeping children<br />
safe. She was active in<br />
bringing a SAFE KIDS<br />
Chapter to north-central<br />
<strong>Nebraska</strong> and remains<br />
strong in her coordination of<br />
the chapter for the people<br />
in Boyd, Holt and Rock<br />
Counties. Through her<br />
work and leadership, Kate<br />
brings greater awareness in<br />
keeping children safe by<br />
bringing local community<br />
partners together, including<br />
the medical community,<br />
community action agencies,<br />
law enforcement, schools, the health department and many, many of our local<br />
businesses. She coordinates the annual SAFE KIDS Health Fair that hundreds<br />
of children participate in.<br />
Kate is one of few instructors for the State of <strong>Nebraska</strong> Child Passenger<br />
Safety Program and has been influential in the certification process of child<br />
passenger safety technicians from around our State. Kate coordinates a<br />
monthly SAFE KIDS Child Passenger Inspection Station in the community of<br />
O’Neill. Car Seat Check events are<br />
held once a year in the communities<br />
of: Atkinson, Bassett, Burwell,<br />
Spencer and Valentine. Her compassion<br />
and professionalism encourage<br />
parents of young children to rest assured<br />
of their knowledge and skills in<br />
transporting their children safely in a<br />
motor vehicle.<br />
Congratulations and thank you Kate,<br />
for all that you do in safety and prevention<br />
for the health of the public.<br />

<strong>Stuart</strong> Lady Broncos vs Niobrara-Verdigre<br />
The <strong>Stuart</strong> Lady Broncos opened their season at home against the Cougars of<br />
Niobrara-Verdigre. The opening quarter saw a combination of rust and 1 st game<br />
jitters. The Lady Cougar press created problems for the offense, and gave the visitors<br />
some easy baskets. At the end of the 1 st quarter, the score was 17-5 Cougars.<br />
In the 2 nd Quarter the Lady Bronco defense finally found their legs and held the<br />
Cougars to 4 points while scoring 9 of their own. At one point the girls had cut the<br />
deficit to 3 points. At halftime, the score was 21-14 Cougars.<br />
The second half was a see-saw battle as the Lady Broncos twice cut the deficit<br />
to 2 points, but could not solve their poor shooting. Monica Vogel made a driving 3point<br />
play and Brittany Hanzlik added a 4-point play in the final 2 minutes of the<br />
game, but at the buzzer the Lady Broncos fell by a final of 47-40.<br />
Our next game is Friday December 9 th , at Taylor, NE against the Twin Loup<br />
Wolves.<br />

In the Junior Varsity game, the young Lady<br />
Broncos saw their first action of the year. Throughout<br />
the course of the 3-quarter game, the Lady<br />
Cougars were able to pressure the Broncos into<br />
making several mistakes. Combine that with the<br />
jitters of playing in the first game of the year, and<br />
our failure to make some shots in close, the more<br />
experienced Cougars were able to build a small<br />
lead and come away with a 28-19 victory.<br />

Lady Broncos Compete at Spartan Shootout<br />
Nine JV Lady Bronco basketball players motored to Spencer on Saturday,<br />
December 3 rd to participate in the Spartan Shootout. In the first round game,<br />
the Lady Broncos were matched up against the Lady Spartans of West Boyd.<br />
The first half of this game was low scoring as both teams were a little nervous.<br />
The Lady Broncos had good looks at the basket but we were only able to<br />
get three shots, 1 three pointer and two 2 pointers, to fall through the hoop to<br />
make the halftime score: Lady Broncos 7 Lady Spartans 8<br />
The offense in the second half did not get any better for the young cagers<br />
as we were only able to score a total of 8 points. The Lady Spartan were able<br />
to take advantage of our turnovers and put 23 points on the scoreboard to<br />
make the final score: Lady Broncos 15 Lady Spartans 31.<br />
I felt we were not comfortable with our offense and or our defense as we<br />
found ourselves out of position and out of rotation. We changed our offense<br />
and our defensive rotation before the second game, which proved to be a better<br />
fit for our players.<br />
In the second game, we battled the Chamber/Wheeler Central Lady Renegades.<br />
The first quarter ended in a tie score with 7 points a piece. In the second<br />
quarter, the Lady Broncos put an additional 14 points on the scoreboard<br />
as our outside and inside game was working well.<br />
Third quarter was not a good quarter for the Lady Broncos as we could<br />
only muster 3 points. Turnovers and foul trouble plagued the girls in this quarter,<br />
which allowed the Lady Renegades to score 14 points to make the score at<br />
the end of the third quarter: Lady<br />
Broncos 24 Lady Renegades 29<br />
In the fourth quarter, the Lady<br />
Broncos battled back to tie the score<br />
and then it was a back and forth ballgame<br />
until the buzzer. The score was<br />
tied at 34 and the Lady Renegades<br />
had control of the ball with less than a<br />
minute to play. The Lady Bronco’s<br />
defense denied their opponent from<br />
taking the shot they wanted, so the<br />
Lady Renegades kicked the ball to the<br />
outside and they made a 3 point basket<br />
with 12 seconds left in the game.<br />
10<br />
Mitchell. He played out in the dining<br />
room while we had lunch. Then at 2:30<br />
we had Ice Cream Thursday with<br />
Frank Murphy.<br />
On Friday, December 2nd, Mass<br />
was held at 10:00 with Fr. Luke. Then<br />
at 11:00 we had kitchen crew where<br />
we peeled cucumbers and potatoes.<br />
Then at 4:30 we had balloons.<br />
On Saturday, December 3 rd , we<br />
had Coffee Klache and then at 2:00<br />
we had our Memorial Service and<br />
Open House. We enjoyed punch,<br />
sandwiches, little cheesecakes and<br />
cakes and other goodies at the Open<br />
House.<br />

Spartan Shootout—(Continued from page 10)<br />
The Lady Broncos threw the ball in and came down the court as timeout was<br />
called with 5 seconds left. A three point play was drawn on the clipboard and<br />
we were able to get a 3 point shot off, but it went long. We were able to get<br />
the offensive rebound and put it back up for 2 points as the buzzer sounded<br />
making the final score: Lady Broncos 36 Lady Renegades 37.<br />
We played much better in this game on both sides of the ball. I was<br />
proud of how the girls were able to battle back in the fourth quarter to tie the<br />
game and to give themselves a chance to send the game into overtime. The<br />
downside of this game was our free-throw shooting as we missed all ten. We<br />
will need to work on our free-throw shooting at practice as we missed our 4<br />
free throws in the first game as well.<br />
The next JV game is this coming Friday as we will be traveling to Taylor<br />
to play the cooperative program of Taylor and Sargent, which is called Twin<br />
Loop. Come out and cheer on the Lady Broncos!!<br />

Boys Basketball<br />
Opens With Wins<br />
The boys basketball team at <strong>Stuart</strong><br />
got the season started with a pair of<br />
wins in JV and Varsity action on December<br />
1 st . The team was in action<br />
against the Cougars of Niobrara-<br />
Verdigre. In JV action, the team<br />
cruised to a 30-14 victory in three quarters<br />
of action. Mitchell Dvorak led the<br />
Broncos with 11 points.<br />
In the varsity game, the Broncos<br />
struggled to find their offensive rhythm,<br />
and consequentially, had to rely on their<br />
defense. Although it was not pretty at<br />
times, the team ended up with a 32-25<br />
victory. Ryan Larabee led the Broncos<br />
with 11 points. The next action for the<br />
team is on Friday, as the team travels<br />
to Taylor to take on Twin Loup. Complete<br />
stats from the two games are to<br />

terrible dress rehearsal is being held<br />
in which Snappy (Ryan Larabee),<br />

Boo-ba (Monica Vogel), Henri the<br />

done by director Tracy (Caitlin Kunz),<br />
camerawoman Gladys (Shelby Paxton),<br />
and the show’s producer, Luka<br />
(Travis Wallinger).<br />
Through the next scene, several of<br />
the original cast members are fired<br />
and/or quit, so director – Tracy – is<br />
forced to find replacements for the<br />
show which is about to ―go live.‖<br />
These replacements include a criminal,<br />
Tank (Devan King), the key grip,<br />

Young Lady Broncos Capture<br />
Lady Bulldogs<br />
On December 5 th , the young Lady Broncos<br />
hosted the young Lady Bulldogs of Ainsworth.<br />
The first game of the nights was the 7 th grade<br />
game. We started this game a little slow, and<br />
we knew we had to change the pace of the<br />
game. We applied full court pressure, which<br />
proved to be a good move for the Lady Broncos,<br />
as we were able to force them to make bad<br />
passes and create more scoring opportunities for<br />
us. This was the first game we have pressed<br />
the ball with these 7 th graders and I liked what<br />
these young athletes could do on the court. At<br />
the end of the 1 st half, the Lady Broncos held a<br />
14 to 5 lead over the Lady Bulldogs.<br />
We backed off of the press during the second<br />
half and worked on half-court defense. We were<br />
still able to get turnovers to limit the number of<br />
shots the Lady Bulldogs were able to take in the<br />
third and fourth quarter. Harlee Fischer had the<br />
hot shooting hand as she made four 3-pointers in<br />
the game. The Lady Broncos tacked on 12 more<br />
points in the second half to make the final score:<br />
Lady Broncos 26 Lady Bulldogs 8. Scorers:<br />
Harlee Fischer – 18 points; Alison Stracke – 2<br />
points; Rachel Kaup – 6 points; and Bethany Alder<br />
– 1 point.<br />
In the second game, the Ainsworth 8 th graders<br />
were tall and they could run up and down the<br />
court very quickly The first quarter started out<br />
with the Lady Broncos applying full court pressure<br />
to take a 14 to 2 lead. The turnovers the full<br />
court press caused gave the Lady Broncos some<br />
easy baskets, but we also missed a lot of layups,<br />
otherwise the score would have had a larger difference.<br />
In the second quarter, we still applied full<br />
court pressure and threw in 13 more points to the<br />
Lady Bulldogs 5 points. Midway through the<br />
quarter, we backed off of the full court pressure<br />
and picked them up at half court. We were able<br />
to rotate some of the 7 th graders into the game to<br />
give our 8 th graders a much needed rest. The<br />
halftime score had the Lady Broncos in the lead<br />
by a score of 27 to 9.<br />
The third quarter was the highest scoring for<br />
the Lady Broncos as we tacked on 16 more<br />
points. We tried a different half court trap with<br />
the girls and we went to our 1-4 High offense as<br />
the Lady Bulldogs were playing us in a man defense.<br />
The Lady Broncos were able to extend<br />
their lead by 24 points at the end of the third<br />
quarter.<br />
In the fourth quarter, we were able rotate<br />
players in and out of the game. Our 7 th graders<br />
have not run the 8 th grade offense so these girls<br />
were learning as we were playing. The deficit<br />
was too much for the Lady Bulldogs to overcome<br />

points; Ashley Kramer – 4 points; Rachel Kaup – 2 points; Taylor<br />

We played aggressive and we hustled at all times. If the girls<br />
continue to be willing to play unselfish, play aggressive and keep<br />
attacking, great things will continue to happen for them. I am very<br />
proud of their efforts up to this point in their season. We will be<br />
playing on December 16 th at Lynch with game time set for 3:30 p.m.<br />
Good to the girls in their upcoming games!<br />
