The cinderblock buildingwill match the dugouts andother structures at the com-plex and will be as attractiveas it is functional, he said.

One of the anticipatedchanges to the plans includesthe installation of an electri-cal conduit on the outside ofthe building to power thescoreboard, he said.

Depending on how bidscome in, items may be de-leted from the building’s de-sign to reduce constructioncosts before a contract is en-tered, Sternberger said.

Sternberger anticipates thebidding process will be com-pleted in time to present rec-ommendations at the Aprilboard meeting, when the staffwill have a better idea of nextyear’s financial picture.

While the fields and con-cession stand initially will beused primarily during soft-ball season, it is expected thefacility will also be used byLittle League and junior highteams when the high schoolteam is using Homier Field atKingfisher Park.

The board approved theADPC computer accountinghardware and software sup-port contract and to surplusan abundance of outdatedtechnology equipment. Theequipment will be recycledor destroyed by a firm locatedin Wichita, Kan.

School board memberswere invited to attend to Okla-homa State School Board’sDistrict 10 Meeting to be heldFeb. 21 in Calumet. They werealso invited to the ChisholmTrail Technology Center Ap-preciation Banquet on Feb. 13.

The board accepted sev-eral resignations, includingElise Morrow, special educa-tion; Katie Williams, history,head softball coach, girls soc-cer coach, assistant boys soc-cer coach, and Kathy Newer,secretary.

High school extra dutycoaching assignments for thespring semester were ap-proved, including Doug Jech,head boys and girls tenniscoach; Andrea Taylor, head

Williams, assistant boys soc-cer coach.

The 2013-2014 school cal-endar was approved. It re-flects the calendar from thisyear and coincides with theChisholm Trail Technologycalendar and other schools inthe county.

“These windmills stand fully410 feet tall, and make a noisesomewhat like a jet airplaneengine. They are unsightly byday, and also by night with theirblinking red lights, and theyprovide noise pollution as well,”he added.

He said that 66 percent of theconstruction cost is paid throughfederal subsidies.

“Our concerns are two-fold,”Taylor said.

“Number one, we don’t wantthem in these areas of high popu-lation. And number two, whathappens when the governmentsubsidies go away? We’re prettysure, that if there’s no moneyavailable from the government,that these things will not beproperly maintained, andmaybe simply abandoned,” headded.

He noted that he and otherproperty owners who did notwant the wind farms erectedwere looking at ways to stopthem from going up.

He said that filing a lawsuitand incorporating into a resi-dential area were two such op-tions.

“Most people living outwhere we do, do so because welike the idea of not having tofollow all the rules and regula-tions of living in a city limits,but the downside is that we haveno say-so if these windmills areerected right in front or behindour properties,” he said.

He added that if the windfarms went ahead as proposedthat the area would soon beknown as “the place where allthe windmills are,” rather thanthe nice rural countryside it isnow known to be.

“I haven’t talked to anyonethat likes the idea of living in themiddle of a wind farm,” he said.

He said the reason the tur-bines were going up in the areawas because “the closer you getto where the most energy is be-ing used, the less waste you have

Wind[Continued From Page 1A] in delivery of the energy.”

He added that in theory, thebest place to position wind tur-bines would be directly acrossthe street from where the high-est concentration of energy us-ers is.

Kingfisher County commis-sioners approved four countyroad crossings for pipelines andrejected a fifth Monday at theirweekly meeting.

The pipeline denied requestcame from Gravel GrindersLLC, which submitted its appli-cation on an outdated form.

Commission ChairmanKeith Schroder asked CountyClerk Teresa Wood to send anupdated application to the com-pany so that it could be resub-mitted for consideration later.

Applications approved werefor DCP Midstream in District2, crossing NS Road 281; a waterline crossing in District 1 for aline to fill ponds from a wellcompleted west of U.S.81 alongthe curve between Kingfisherand Dover, requested byJohnnie Fleming; a request fromEnogex to cross Road 2760 inDistrict 3, and a request fromSuperior Pipeline Co., LLCcrossing Road E790 in District 1.

“We will also look at waysof sharing through onlinecommunication such asSkype. It will let our teacherssee why they are good at whatthey do.”

As part of the collabora-tion, Kingfisher plans to helpCapitol Hill start a food pan-try similar to the Jacket Pan-try at Kingfisher.

“Our food pantry is avail-able through the counselor forany child with a need. Wealso plan to work with theKingfisher Tree Board onbeautification projects at bothschools,” he said.

“The purpose of the grantis to reward teachers,” Jack-son said. “Eighty percent ofthe grant will be to rewardKingfisher teachers, while 20percent will go to collabora-tion between the two schools.Each high school teacher willreceive a new iPad. We planon sending the teachers to aseminar, possibly at QuartzLodge, prior to school start-ing next year at which timewe will bring in dignitariesand guest speakers.

“We also plan on making adonation back to the King-fisher Education Foundationso they can use the money tomake grants to all teachers.We realize that excellence inthe Kingfisher school systemis a district-wide effort.”

Dear Dave,I’m looking at buying term

life insurance. Currently, I’min medical school doing mylast year of residency andmaking $35,000 a year. ShouldI base the amount of insur-ance coverage on what I’mmaking now or what I’ll makewhen I’ve finished medicalschool?

AmandaDear Amanda,

In most cases, I advise bas-ing the amount of life insur-ance coverage on the incomeyou’re earning at the moment.After all, that’s the amountyour family is used to livingon, right? However, if you’refinishing up your medical de-gree this year, it’s a virtualcertainty you’ll earn lots morein 2014. You could easily gofrom making $35,000 to$135,000.

I recommend that peoplebuy term life insurance cover-age of about 10 to 12 timestheir annual income. Consid-ering your situation, I’d sayyou could afford to buy a littlepotential. Instead of basing iton your current $35,000 in-come and buying a policy inthe $350,000 to $400,000 range,you might double thatamount. It will still be reallycheap coverage as long asyou’re in decent health. Andonce you’re making doctormoney you can adjust theamount of coverage accord-ing to what you actually make.

Good luck, Amanda!—Dave

Dave SaysBasing term life insurance on future earnings

Dear Dave,My wife and I were recently

involved in an auto accident,and the insurance companydoesn’t want to cover the dam-age due to a technicality. Weboth work, so I’d like to find areplacement car while we fightthis out with the insurer. How-ever, we only have $7,000 insavings and we don’t want tospend it all. What should wedo?

JohnDear John,

You can definitely findyour wife agood used carfor whatyou’ve got inthe bank.H o w e v e r ,leaving your-selves with nosavings what-soever is not agood plan.

I realize no one enjoys driv-ing a beater, but that’s whatI’d do right now. Just look at itas a rental car. If you spend$1,500 on a little used some-

thing, you will have $5,500left in your savings account.Just act as your own insur-ance company for a while.Then, when the big guys payup, you could just plug it backinto your savings account.

Even if they don’t pay,you’ll still have a nice chunkof change sitting there. And itwouldn’t take long to save upenough to upgrade that littlehooptie to something nicerand more reliable while stillkeeping the majority of yoursavings intact!

Inhofe, McKeonquestion Obamasequester proposal

WASHINGTON— Sen.James Inhofe (R-OK), Rank-ing Member of the SenateArmed Services Committee,and Rep. Howard P. “Buck”McKeon (R-CA), Chairman ofthe House Armed ServicesCommittee, commented to-day on the President’s ex-pected proposal to replace thesequester.

”We welcome PresidentObama to the table, perhapsbetter late than never. We are,however, concerned that hisproposal will include the samemix of tax increases and de-fense cuts that Democratshave advocated for in the past.We must be clear. This ap-proach is neither responsiblenor balanced.

“America’s military hasabsorbed $487 billion in de-fense cuts under PresidentObama, with $500 billion yetto come with sequestration.“Refusing to consider reformsto the mandatory spendingthat is driving our debt crisis,while using our troops as apiggy bank to keep unsustain-able spending programs onlife support, will have bothfiscal and strategic conse-quences. We urge the Presi-dent to lead, rather than loopendlessly around a beatenpath. It is in his power to forgea deal that reigns in our debtwithout levying more taxeson struggling Americans, andwithout hollowing out an at-war military. We hope thatthe President will present aserious proposal today, onethat does not force the mili-tary into sequestration. “Wewill continue working as well,making every effort to resolvea crisis that could do unprec-edented harm to our military.”
