CHESTER - Tbe holiday weekend end~d with a
garage fire that spread to a
ho'me in Baum Addition on
Monday night.
Meigs EMS received the
call at II :07 Monday
evening that a .garage at
452 t 2 Baum Addition was
on fire. The · Chester,
Bashag, Pomeroy and
Tuppers
Plains
Fi(e
Departments were called to
the scene . ·
According ·to (:hester
Fire Chief Larry Cleland,
.the home is the residence
of Dan Thomas and family
who were home at the time
of the fire. Cleland said the
family heard a loud "pop-

ping" noise outside tha~
alerted them something
was wrong. The Thomas'
then saw their garage was
on fire. ·
·
Personnel from the State
Fire Marshal Division were
investigating the scene yesterday
according
to
spokesperson
Shane
Cartmill. Cartmill said it
appears the fire began in the
two-car garage, traveled the
eves trough into the house
and attic but the firefighters
were able to save the house.
However, the house Suf·
fered heavy smoke and
water damage . Cartinill said
there wefe no vehicles in
the garage but there we~
.tractors. tools and garden
.
'
eqmpment.
After investigating the

scene Cartmill said the
·cause of the fire remains
"undetermined" but · it
appears electrical in nature.
"There are no obvious
signs of criminal intent but
we could not pinpoint the
exact cause the fire,"
. Cartmill said.
Cleland said though the
garage was ·destroyed and
the. house damaged, he was
not aware of any physical
injuries to the family or firefighters. Cleland said the
fire was hot enough to melt
some of the plasuc shutters
on . a neighbor's home but
other than that the damage
appeared to be contained to
the Thomas property.
Cleland estimated firefighters were on the scene for
near! y three hours. ·

has not ·yet begun to be
repaired. Crop support,
Medicare and Medicaid
stopped, as did unemployment
insurance , food
stamps and support for public housing . The country of
Texas couldn "t afford to pay
· high school footbull coaches $1 million dollars anyll]Ore. Many of them quit in
d1sgust.
·
In the war with Mexico
(see the War of Mexican
Reunification, 2015, commonly called The lWo Day
War) the former state's only
defense was a group called
the j'vlinutemen. Named .
after
the
original
Minutemen of Lexington
and Concord who fought
against the best anny in . the
world,
the
modern
Minutemen only fought
unarmed day laborers who

'
were trying to cross the
then-border to get low-wage
jobs. They were quite successful against undemourished women and children,
but the new Minutemen
fold~d like a cheap cell
phone when faced w1th ihe
Mellican Anny.
The Me~icans quickly
passed "Spanish Only" legislation that forbade any
signs or documents to be in
any language other than
Spanish. There are no bilingual classes in pub! ic
schools, putting Anglo children at a great disadvantage.
Ir an Anglo gets arrested,
there is r\o requirement that
he be provided with a
lawyer or a translator. White
many older Anglos still
speak English at home , their
children often pretend not to
understand it. At best, they
retain a word or two like
"thanks"
or
"Merry
Christmas." They are
embarrassed of their parents'. poor command of the
language. Public schools
now ha"e soccer teams, and
football is no longer played
in Texas .
The saddest part is that
thousands of Texans still

wash up on the shores of
Louisiana and Florida, malnourished and destitute,
begging to be let back into ·
the· United ,States. What to
do with these illegal aliens
is still being discussed in
Congress. Should they be
sent back to where they
came from or should they
be given some kind of
amnesty? The wall the
United States built around
Texas to protect the border
states of Oklahoma and
Louisiana from illegal
Texans is expensive to
maintain and not 100 percent secure. · Each year,
thousands of Texans either
.climb it or tunnel under it
looklng for more lucrative
jobs than they can get at
home. Many Americans are.
afraid that if the wall comes
down. the United States.will
be fiooded with uneducated,
illegal Texans who refuse to
assimilate
into
the
American culture.

In the war with Mexico
(see the War of Mexican
Reunification, 2015, commonly called The lWo Day
War) the former state's only
defense was a group called
the j'vlinutemen. Named .
after
the
original
Minutemen of Lexington
and Concord who fought
against the best anny in . the
world,
the
modern
Minutemen only fought
unarmed day laborers who

'
were trying to cross the
then-border to get low-wage
jobs. They were quite successful against undemourished women and children,
but the new Minutemen
fold~d like a cheap cell
phone when faced w1th ihe
Mellican Anny.
The Me~icans quickly
passed "Spanish Only" legislation that forbade any
signs or documents to be in
any language other than
Spanish. There are no bilingual classes in pub! ic
schools, putting Anglo children at a great disadvantage.
Ir an Anglo gets arrested,
there is r\o requirement that
he be provided with a
lawyer or a translator. White
many older Anglos still
speak English at home , their
children often pretend not to
understand it. At best, they
retain a word or two like
"thanks"
or
"Merry
Christmas." They are
embarrassed of their parents'. poor command of the
language. Public schools
now ha"e soccer teams, and
football is no longer played
in Texas .
The saddest part is that
thousands of Texans still

wash up on the shores of
Louisiana and Florida, malnourished and destitute,
begging to be let back into ·
the· United ,States. What to
do with these illegal aliens
is still being discussed in
Congress. Should they be
sent back to where they
came from or should they
be given some kind of
amnesty? The wall the
United States built around
Texas to protect the border
states of Oklahoma and
Louisiana from illegal
Texans is expensive to
maintain and not 100 percent secure. · Each year,
thousands of Texans either
.climb it or tunnel under it
looklng for more lucrative
jobs than they can get at
home. Many Americans are.
afraid that if the wall comes
down. the United States.will
be fiooded with uneducated,
illegal Texans who refuse to
assimilate
into
the
American culture.

with a ban~ but di&gt;appeared
with a wh1mper. a casualty
of pnce that raises a big
question: Ho}V much will
society agree to pay for
high -tech· help for the disabled''
Johnson &amp; Johnson quietly sold the last iBOTs this
spring , shuttering manufacturing of a wheelchair that
doctors had greeted five
years ago as potentially revo!Uiionary for the freedom
of movement it promised but which failed to sell
more than a few hundred a
year. Earlier this month, a
veteran who lost his legs in
Iraq received the last known
available iBOT, donated
after its initial· owner died.
Now iBOT users who fear
their chairs wearing out are
joining high-profile inventor Dean Kamen - best
known for his Segways in lobbying Congress for
reimbursement changes that
they hope could revive a
technology that left the market wilh a $22,000 price tag
but that Medicare deemed
worth about $6.000.
"If I ever had to get out of
this chair, I really don't
know if!' d want to live allymore. to be honest with
you," says Alan T. Brown,
42, of Hollywood, Fla., who
is mostly paralyzed from
the chest down and on his
. second iBOT. "Guys in
these chairs ... we might be
disabled now, but then we'd
really become disabled."
.Price wasn't the only factor in the. iBOT's demise.
Only a small fraction of the
paralyzed even were candidates because the high-tech
.Chair required, among other
lhings, use of at least one
arm and certain upper-body
control.
· Still, disability specialists
say the iBOT saga has ramif.ications beyond one gee~hiz but far-fmm-perfect

Big NFL.players are prone to_ high blQod pressure

CHIC AGO (AP)
Supe rsized pro football
pl ayers are prone to high
bl ood pressure but fare
better on some other health
measures than more average-s ized men , new NPL' pon sored res~;arch shows .
The mixed results suggest that intense physical
conditioning can help
reduce but not wipe. out ill
effects excess weight has
on heart disease-related
ri sks.
Compared with other

men their age, the Nat ional
Fo otball League pl ayers
studted we re mo re th a n
twice as likely to have hi gh
blood press ure ~ 14 percent versus 6 percent for
non-players .
Among the biggest players ~ linemen with a body
mass index in the obese
range ~ about 90 percent
had either high blood pressure or pre-hypertension,
which is less dangerous but
still risky.
The biggest players also
had worse levels of ·•good"
cholesterol and blood fats
called triglycer.ides, but
fewer sign s of pre-diabetes
than non-players.
The NFL and study
authors · downplayed the
negative finding s from a.
pool of 504 players of all
sizes. Except for high
blood pressure, the authors
said, play.e rs on average
faced no greater heart disease risks than men their

But 42 percent of the 109

players
had
unhealthy levels of good
cholesterol and almost 22
percent had high ti-iglycerides .
Dr. Andrew Tucker, the
lead author and team
physician for the Ravens,
said the blood pressure
results were unexpected.
He said the league is investigating possible reasons,
which might include diet;
weightlifting and use of
painkillers that have been
linked with elevated blood
pressure.

players had a body mass

obese range. But all 109 of
the offensive linemen were

the comp'arison group.
The good news was that
in both groups, only about
