PINE NUTS: A Cube of Ice. As Mark Twain tells us, “It’s the little things that smoothes people’s roads out the most.” And so it happened back in 1966 on a hellish afternoon in a Vietnam village, that a Montagnard woman handed a Marine a cube of ice. There was no electricity in that village, nor was there enough money to purchase a generator, so how could this guardian angel have manufactured a cube of ice?

Knowing I must be wondering that very thing, she smiled an eloquent smile that comes with holding an answer to a riddle. Follow the link below to read the rest of Pine Nuts.

March is National Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month, and Tahoe Forest Health System is raising awareness in the community on the importance of getting screened for colorectal cancer.
Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death among men and women in the United States- but it doesn’t have to be. Through screening, colorectal cancer is preventable and treatable, if caught early.
A colonoscopy is one of several screening tests for colorectal cancer. During a colonoscopy, precancerous growths can be removed before they even turn to cancer.
Talk with your primary care provider about when to begin screening for colorectal cancer and which test is right for you.
For more information about colorectal cancer screening or to schedule an appointment, call our Gastroenterology clinic at (530) 587-7698.

Always part of the Highway 28 Corridor Management Plan, the fee structure rewards early birds and night owls, costing anyone who parks 7-9 a.m. $1 an hour or free 7-11 p.m. From 9-11 it goes up to $3 an hour weekdays and $4 Friday through Sunday and then to $4 3-5 p.m. weekdays and $4 Friday through Sunday.

Spring fees are in effect until Memorial Day Weekend when summer rates begin. The district is the lead agency for the East Shore Trail Project, along with the Nevada Department of Transportation and a dozen other agencies.

PINE NUTS: Army Ants and Us ~ Army Ants know all about aggression. They think they invented aggression, and they will do it all day long for the queen. Sound familiar? Here’s how they wage their wars; first they bivouac, that is to say, they build a living nest with their bodies within a tree trunk or hole in the ground. Don’t ask me how they do that. Once they are organized into a big ball, the soldier ants, those with the big mandibles, patrol the surface of the bivouac and fight off aggressors.

We have an exciting speaker lined up for this Saturday at 2 pm. Her name is Janet McHenry and the topic is You are Loved. She’s an award-winning speaker & author of 24 books. We’d love to see your smiling faces in person or on zoom. Right now, we have a very low response and we think it’s because of the weather. If you are concerned about the snow on Friday, please contact Anne to get the zoom link to watch from the comforts of your home. Come join us!
Please contact Anne today to register at 775-831-0784 or apayne@thevillagechurchnv.org.
