It's no surprise that the Mediterranean diet was ranked as the best overall diet by U.S. News & World Report for the eighth year in a row. This style of eating focuses more on fueling your body with the right foods and enjoying healthy meals with others rather than following a restrictive plan.  Listen to the latest episode of The Healthiest You podcast, where we talk about the Mediterranean diet with dietitian Alexa Roseberry with Lehigh Valley Health Network (LVHN), part of Jefferson Health.  Can following the Mediterranean diet make you live longer? What if you don't like fish and you aren't a fan of vegetables? How can you make healthier choices going out to eat? Which one is better – the Mediterranean diet or the DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) diet? Are there ways to stop the post-lunch slump?

Property tax reform has been a priority of Governor Mike Braun's administration from Day 1 of this year's General Assembly session.  Senate Bill 1 limits the property tax revenue Indiana counties receive by providing relief on property tax assessments. And while homeowners and businesses will see some relief, local governments are preparing for potential staff and service cuts due to the loss of revenue from the state.  Monroe County alone is projected to earn about $37 million less in revenue over the next three years, according to the state's latest fiscal analysis. Read more: County says it cannot do more with less City and county officials said the bill puts the onus on local municipalities to make up the deficit. “Because the state legislators who supported SB1 were too cowardly — and yes, I choose that word purposefully — to do their jobs, local governments are going to have to raise local income taxes to make up deficits. We're not going to have a choice,” said Monroe County Commissioner Jody Madeira. The uncertainty with the loss of funding loss is already having an effect. Monroe County Council Member Peter Iversen said the council does not want to make a financial promise that it cannot fulfill in five or 10 months. And that could mean hiring freezes and stagnant salaries. Read more: Salary request discussion leads to tense exchange at county council meeting The property tax bill will also affect the amount of money going to public schools. On this week's Noon Edition, we'll discuss the property tax law and the impact it will have on local communities. Join us on the air by calling 812-855-0811 or toll-free at 1-877-285-9348.

Welcome to the daily304 – your window into Wonderful, Almost Heaven, West Virginia.   Today is Monday, Dec. 23, 2024. Ever wonder how the Northern Panhandle got its shape? Like the state itself, it came about as the result of a contentious dispute…a Monroe County farm is the winner of the Pitch Southern WV Business Idea Competition…and 26 small business owners graduate from a Goldman Sachs program at Bridge Valley CTC…on today's daily304. #1 – From WV EXPLORER – You've probably heard of the Mason-Dixon Line, but what about the Ellicot Line?  West Virginia's remarkable shape is partly defined by its odd Northern Panhandle, a finger of land that extends northward more than 60 miles from its central mass. Home to Wheeling, the state's first capital, the panhandle's origins date back to the 1700s and a contentious boundary dispute between Virginia and Pennsylvania that helped shape the history of the U.S. According to Weirton-based historian Paul Zuros, both colonies issued land grants before the American Revolution and sent soldiers and frontiersmen to settle the same land. The dispute eventually became so aggressive that the Continental Congress was forced to step in.  Read more: https://wvexplorer.com/2024/11/19/west-virginia-northern-panhandle-origin-dispute/   #2 – From WV HIVE – Michelle and Derek Miller, owners of Waymaker's Meadows Farm in Monroe County, are celebrating a significant milestone as winners of the Pitch Southern West Virginia Business Idea Competition. The competition was coordinated by the West Virginia Hive Network.  Their farm-to-table business, which offers fresh lamb, chicken and duck eggs, and produce, took home the first-place prize of $2,500. Their winnings will be used to purchase mobile electric coolers that will allow their meat, eggs and produce to be offered to customers in a wider geographic region.  The early positive customer interest in Waymaker's Meadows Farm has the Millers taking steps for expansion. They are now leasing an additional 90 acres of land and have added more farm animals.

Goldman Sachs graduated 26 small business owners from its signature business-education program, 10,000 Small Businesses, at BridgeValley Community & Technical College earlier this month. The commencement is part of the programs' $100 million Investment in Rural Communities grant, an initiative to reach rural small business owners across 20 states over five years. West Virginia marks the seventh state to host graduates from the program to date after it was launched last year. Goldman Sachs Foundation President Asahi Pompey compared the program to a “mini MBA,” in that it's set up to expand business owners' business-education knowledge and growth.

On this week's edition of the Talking Michigan Transportation podcast, Margaret Barondess, a manager in the Michigan Department of Transportation's (MDOT) environmental section who is retiring from state government, reflects on her career. More than 50 years ago, Congress adopted the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). Barondess, who worked for MDOT for 33 years, explains how the act informs planning for transportation projects in Michigan and department efforts to at once protect our air, waterways, wildlife, and plants and minimize inconvenience to travelers. While critics of NEPA have argued for scaling back the need for environmental impact statements, supporters tout NEPA's role in saving money, time, lives, historical sites, endangered species and public lands while encouraging compromise and cultivating better projects with more public support. Barondess also talks about the challenges and rewards she and her team have experienced in recent years, including the success protecting some threatened species on a segment of I-75 in Monroe County with a corridor conservation action plan.

The New River Farms Sawmill opened July 19, 2024, offering customers many species of logs as boards and beams up to 25 feet in length to the customer's specifications. The company can also mill individual logs onsite. More than 100 people attended the Fayette County sawmill's Open House at Clifftop (near Babcock State Park) in mid-September.

The asking price is $1.795 million. The former Salt Sulphur Springs resort, known as “Old Salt” by its 19th century clientele, is tucked into a shady, narrow Monroe County valley through which spring-fed Indian Creek meanders, a few miles south of Union. Since the early 1800s, the house has provided lodging for guests drawn to Salt Sulphur's healing springs. A chapel, five cottages, a bathhouse, a spring house and a store building were also built of native stone and completed at around the same time. During “Old Salt's” pre-Civil War heyday, nearly 2,000 guests stayed at the Monroe County resort each summer--many of whom were southerners seeking to escape the season's heat.

Mississippi sheriff's solution to the drug crisis? Everyone must 'truly find Jesus' The Friendly Atheist, By Hemant Mehta, on September 13, 2024https://www.friendlyatheist.com/p/mississippi-sheriffs-solution-toChurch Attendance is (Once Again) Correlated with Authoritarianism — So Why Do We Refuse to Acknowledge It?Religion Dispatches by Chrissy Stroop on September 13, 2024https://religiondispatches.org/church-attendance-correlated-with-authoritarianism-again-so-why-do-we-still-refuse-to-acknowledge-it/The sheriff of Monroe County, Mississippi, recently posted two public messages after arresting a man for methamphetamine and weapons possession. He proclaimed that the only solution to the county's drug problem was to find Jesus, raising concerns about mixing religious proselytization with law enforcement duties. His focus on religious salvation over actionable solutions to address the root causes of drug addiction sparked debate. The sheriff's belief that turning to religion, rather than critically addressing systemic issues, could solve the drug crisis highlights a troubling approach in regions saturated with religiosity.Additionally, research has indicated that individuals with higher religiosity often exhibit more authoritarian attitudes and lean toward conservative political figures. This correlation between religiosity and authoritarianism complicates efforts to address public health crises like drug addiction. The articles discussed point out that while religion may provide some individuals with tools to cope with addiction, it often relies on fear and dogma rather than addressing the root causes. In fact, there's evidence that individuals sometimes replace one addiction, such as drugs, with religious fervor, which can be considered a process addiction.Interestingly, some religious recovery programs like Alcoholics Anonymous have reported success. However, studies show that non-religious recovery programs, which share structural similarities to religious ones, are just as effective. These programs focus on social support, group meetings, and creating a sober culture, rather than attributing success to divine intervention. The research suggests that it is not the religious content that makes a difference but the social support networks that these programs foster.In contrast to the religious approach, countries with more secular policies like Switzerland and the Netherlands have successfully used harm reduction programs, including supervised use sites, mental health treatment, and naloxone distribution. These initiatives have significantly reduced drug overdose rates and have been more effective than punitive measures or solely religious approaches. Though the U.S. attempted a decriminalization program in Oregon, the COVID pandemic hindered its full potential, ultimately leading to its repeal in 2022.The conversation highlights the tension between religious ideology and practical, evidence-based solutions to public health crises like drug addiction. While religious organizations offer community and support, focusing exclusively on spiritual salvation can overlook the underlying issues and solutions grounded in health policy and social services.The Non-Prophets, Episode 23.39.1 featuring Cynthia McDonald, Scott Dickie and AJBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-non-prophets--3254964/support.
