Dr. John Rethman Animal Medical Center Actually, when things are rough Kike this, pets are more important, not less. When we rank what’s really important to us, we find our pets are a source of comfort. Dr. Johnny Clark, Blue Mountain Animal Clinic Rappahannock animals not immune to financial ills By Betsy Parker Special to the Rappahannock News With autos, home and land sales stagnant, the stock market plunging and unemployment skyrocketing, people are taking stock, analysts say, ggghat*# aapacmtl to their lives, And what area veterinarians say is turning out to be most important to many in the region is the comfort and love provided by their pets and animals, their dogs, cats and horses. Though times are trending tough, said Dr. Johnny Clark of Blue Mountain Animal Clinic, pet care is among the last thing to slack in hard times. Still, he said, some animal owners are showing signs of budget stress. Other vets agree noting some pet owners are putting off preventive care - routine cheek-ups, vaccines and dental care. “Regarding the economy and veterinary care. 1 am seeing folks being a tad more conservative.'* Clark said. “People are careful how they spend money these days, but pet care ranks high on the list of priorities Bar many. That is admirable.'* Flint Hill veterinarian Dr. Joyce Hannan said, “With my practice being primarily acupuncture and chiropractic treatments for chronic pain and poor performance, usually at this time of the year 1 am up to my neck, in a waiting list Saa PETS.

It seems that the entire western world is talking about the puppy the two girls will want.

MotKtoy-f^NAw Momb**, Audit 8umnw of Cueuiattona iB wwiw.rcM2pntwa.com Much to be thankful for, still We have published the breakdown of the cost of a traditional Thanksgiving meal elsewhere in this issue, and the news is really no more welcome than any other news of late that has to do with our money* Basically, it’s costing the American family almost 13 percent more this year to put the bird and all the trimmings on the table than was the case in 3QQT. Our information came courtesy of the Virginia Farm Bureau Federation* whose essential Jobs are lotK hying and handling public relations for farmers. We are, in general, sympathetic to those causes. The farmer gets only 22. cents of each dollar you spend at the grocery store, according to VFBP. which sounds reasonable. Still, quick math reveals that the farmer got slightly more than a 10 percent raise over the last 13. months, at least as re&ected by the ymk . try-centric dinner we will sit down to later this week* and the sweet potatoes, green beans, pumpkin pie ami so on which will accompany the headliner. Most of us haven't been quite so fortunate in our paychecks since 'thanksgiving task but Farm Bureau is quick to point out that the perceived pay bike is misleading to an extreme degree. Farmers' inputs — seed, fertiliser, crop protection, fael — have all skyrocketed during the last calendar year. The more worrisome observation that Farm Bureau includes in its 'thanksgiving piece is that what we spend on food as a percentage of income is starting to inch upward, reversing a trend of many years’ duration. Americans spend less on food, as a percentage of what they earn, than any other developed nation. Food that is inexpensive and readily available is the backbone of the American experience, and, presumably, the prevailing philosophy behind the Farm Bill approved by Congress every five years. 'the presumption requires a significant leap of faith. Farm Bill critics — and there are many — insist that the legislation overwhelmingly subsidises corporate, not family farmers, 'the Environmental Working Croup estimates that Just one-tenth of America's farmers collected $130.3 billion of the $184.7 billion that taxpayers ponied up in agricultural subsidies from 1003 through 2005. 'there was nary a peep about the Farm Bill during the presidential campaign, which was surprising, given all the nostalgia about FDK and the New Deal, and all the worry about this being the second coming of the Great Depression; the Agricultural Adjustment Act, precursor of the Farm Bill, was initially passed in 1033. Frankly, we don't know if the new Congress could revisit the Farm Bill, even if it wanted, 'the bill lasts for Bve years for good reason; farmers need that stability for olannine ourwoses. But the bill rival* the bailout in scope, the Pentagon in the number and intensity of its turf bat' ties and the tax code ux xt» Rysantuxe complexity. Wo ueed to simplify We need to redirect.

Some people consider acupuncture amt chiropractic elective procedures However, for many horses it makes the difference between them working well or being lame and is actually a cheaper form of therapy than many conventional workups and treatments’*' said Harman. “tn talking with some of nxy colleagues from around iri-nmrr Photos tjy Svtsy Pg#H»r the effects of the my clients* as a few of the Or. «ie*ce Harmon Flint Hill veterinarian the country t think w» all ar» strnas feww elective treatments feeing done or the clients are delaying prowduret* that can wait she added. The hardest hit parts of the U.& economy - real estate and auto sates - are stow in affecting? the region, said Flint Hill's Dr. Scott Dave. Still. though gweranotent jobs insulate the area somewhat pet owners sure feeling the pinch. "Tve found that in small animal care. Fm sending fewer patients out with referrals to specialists.”" said Dove, whose Companion Animat Clinic treats cats, dogs and exotics. “Clients are toss likely to have that extra money for- a three or four thousand dollar procedure.'*" Instead. Dove said, pet owners sure tending? to stick with traditional medicine offered by general practitioners who traditionally charge toss than surgeons. U&d of my clients had tong ago begun doing their own vaccines.”" something made possible in the mid1960s when the drugs for annual inoculations for dogs, cats, horses, most livestock and many exotics became over the counter rather than prescription, he added. “That saves a pet owner a ton of money Every tittle hit helps.” Another change Dove sees is a decrease in ”wett animal check-ups.”" prevents*tive care that many pet owners are .foregoing new that money is tight.

Watts said that he expects, if the economy remains stow, that some cheats will get to the point that they literally cannot afford to treat a pet’s illness. In that case, he said, euthanasia could become the final option. The horse industry, too. has been hard hit by the economic downturn, said Dr. Kevin Dippert.

A cozy - firs, enjoyed: byhis cat Cleo. keeps ths chillat bay. A path to worldwide fame and the struggle that went with it By Stephen Dakeinu HiUHwhtnnotk Nowa StaffWntor ‘"History;'* as Rappuhunnock. County author John Kiser noted. “» written by the victors.** Perhaps more accurately history is imagined by the victors, overlooking wrongs and olten proclaiming self-righteous destiny What makes Kisers new book — ‘‘Commander of the Faithful. The Life and Times of Emir Abd el-Kader* — so compelling is the mirror it holds against American history both past and present, mad the reflection is not mjmmgm pleasant to look ah Kiser calls this. “A story of true jihad.’* and it is about Algeria of 1830. and an Arab hero, Bmir Abd el-Kader — once greatly admired by many Americans including Abraham Lincoln — who. with his faith and sense of justice, stands against imperial aspirations of France; a France driven by national pride, arrogance and greed, “masquerading;’* said Kiser “as a 'civilizing* force.’* When France began its colonization of Algeria in 1830, the inhabitants of its capital city Algiers, were described by the American consul there, William Shaler as “...civil, courteous and humans.** Shuler also noted that “extraordinary fanaticism or those of different religions, and professed the, “Mohammedan creed.’* without hostility toward anyone else. Unless, of course, one they Lacked • bigotry hatred.** for arrive** with a flotilla of 700 ships and 30.000 infantry bringing: the superior civilization of France along with a military policy which regarded the “American Solution'* - simply eradicating interior tribe** (also known as genocide) — as an option. History is often better understood through the lens of the familiar, so imagine a young. 34-year-old native American who is extraordinarily brave, an excellent horseman, is devout in a deeply spiritual way has both a scholarly and worldly education, and an oratorical flair to ignite the hearts of a vast army of plains Indians taking on the federal government. Like the Sioux and Cheyenne. el-Kader and his confederacy of tribes defeated their overconfident enemy the French, in a decisive battle. How different would history have been if* Crazy Horse had sustained his leadership after Little Big Horn? More obscure, but perhaps a better comparison in terms of religious authority and diplomatic acumen, was the life of Tecumseh who perished in the struggle between the British and Americans in the War of 1313. Like Tecumseh, elKader was able to sustain his moral authority even in the face of disagreement with his allies. A DQQK rQwQin^ Qlt 'Commander of" tha Faithful' by Joint Kiser wHI taka place at QQTCmfS tfr Wallo3S^. on Jan. 3 from 6-7^3tt '■ p.m. Also visit tft* book s Web site^ vmivw.true|ihact.CQmThe interior of Algeria was not all that different from the American West: The soaring skies and plains of Montana, the Bitterroot Mountains of Idaho, the deserts of Ariaona; and the conditions and circumstances of the West were very similar to Algeria of 1830 with the exceptions of a unifying leader with a powerful faith in God and a common culture firmly rooted in Islam. For i? years, el-Kader defied and defeated the French, but in the end. their version of the “American Solution** worked. El-Kader eventually made the choice 'that the suffering of his people was not worth the continued tight, and so he surrendered to the French. By then. el-Kader had become admired across the world, even in France. General Lamuriciere — a feisty French officer who had come to greatly respect el-Kader as his military opponent - negotiated honorable terms allowing elKader to leave Algeria to live in exile in the Middle East. However, promises were broken, ami the Emir and hie household were held captive in France for fours veers before they were finally released. The Kw*ir and hie family went first to Turkey, and then eventually settled in Damascus. It was here, perhaps. that el-Kader earned his enduring reputation. Sparked by an incident involving unpaid taxes. Turkish officials spurred a virtual pogrom, against Christians and foreigners. BSl-Kader gave refog* to the Christians. When an angry crowd demanded he bend the teachings of Islam. Some credit el-Kader with saving more than 10,000 people from the rampaging mobs. The book is a good view from a Western perspective into the mind ut a Muslim leader and a more accurate meaning of Jihad. “Commander* is thoroughly researched - Kiser took six. years to write it spending two to three months each year in many of the locations the story takes place — with a wellpaced narrative, giving the reader a real flavor of a culture we really haven't spent a lot of time trying to understand tt is also a reflection of the prejudice, bigotry and ignorance that often drives foreign policy even the foreign policy of this country in our own time.

On a visit to Aiders, Kiser relates that a Catholic nun showed him this passage from el-Kader's writin(p»: “tf you think God is what the different communities believe - the Muslims. C hjrietians. Jews - He is that but also more...No one i» an infidel in all the ways relating to God. No one knows all God’s facets.

*s^l5;w .%$r . _Br SMicjt Its that time of year again* And it feels H» Ar' * holidays coma earlier sad earlier every year (particularly to my wallet). If you're like me. year spend hours wandering mindlessly through various shopping centers looking for that perfect gift only to succumb to buying a gift card after all. There is an alternative — do-it-yourself gifts. They are generally less expensive, and the best thing about them is that you can tailor them to fit the interests and personality of the person receiving your gift. * Gift baskets ass arguably the most popular D1Y gift. Pick a theme that vuur recipient would be crazy about, like Italian food, movies, writing, dogs or wine. Then, combine all of vour dements related to that theme in a basket. For example, if your Aunt Motlv's a movie buff, use a large tmcruwaveahle bowl as vour basket, and fill it with gourmet popcorn, a couple oi DVDs, a neck rest, and a box of Whoppers, and vou re all set. select photos of you and your recipient, places you've gone together, etc. and arrange them creatively in a simple frame that suits his/her style. When I started college. 1 made one for my dad. I used various photos of myself growing up. scanned them in to my computer, printed them out in black and white, and arranged them m a black frame that 1 got from Wal- r Mart. The end result was wonderful, and it ended up being his favorite gift. • Personalized crockery. Go to a local ceramic store and find mugs, bowls, plates, and vases in fired greenware. Buy pamt and paint your friend s favorite flower, mantra, or name on them. • Unique coasters. Buv prettv tiles from The Home Depot and glue curkboard on the bottom for pretty coasters. • Food — or what I like to call instant gratification.' It vou like to bake, there are several options available For instance, there are many dit ferent bread baking mixes now. You can bake a tew different flavored loaves and put them together in a nice basket. You can also make cookies m various holiday shapes land have vour kids help decorate them’ If you're like my mum and can't bake to save your life, try dipping strawberries in white and brown chocolate tor a tuxedo effect. • Bath oils. Buy cute^ unusually shaped bottles and fill them with Homemade aromatherapy essential oils. You can use Google to locate different recipes, or simply combine flower petals, mineral oil. cloves, and lemon zest in a bottle. Pop in a cork, add a label, and tie a nice ribbon on the throat of the bottle. This is a fun way to experiment with different scents. • Plants. Purchase little pots at a craft store and flower/ herb seeds and plant the seeds and nurture them until it's time to give the plants awav. Your friend or family member can either tend the plant in the pot. or add it to his/her own garden outside. Note: You might want to start a little earlier than the day before Christmas to get these ready. • Clothing accessories. If you can sew. knit, or crochet, then you definitely have the advantage over other DlY people.

It was definitely a hit. * Mixed CDs. For the music lover in your life, put together a collection of songs that you think he/she will like, or songs that remind you of him/her. 1 did this for a few of my friends, and the nice part is that they can even upload your CD on to their iPod if they so choose. DIY gifts may take a little more time to create, but in my experience, they are more memorable than random items bought at the store.

All work and no pin bad thing. Some of us da relax from time to time, and a great gift fora golfer with leisure time —especially the golfer who likes to travel a little bit — is the annual discount book put out by the American Lung Association, and available on its Web site, wwwJungusa.org. The $40 booklet enables golfers to play at a number of regional public courses at a huge discount, amounting, says Rick Bryan, to about the courses' usual greens fees. With the book, you generally have to pay only for a cart ‘Most of thecourses let you use the discount twaor three or four tunes/* said the retired federal employee and part-time starter at South Wales Golf Club. “Basically if you use it two times, it has paid for itself." Bryan uses the book m. often as twice a week during good, weather; and has saved “hundreds of dollars,'’ he said. The book also contains discounts at a number of golf shops and. sporting, goods stores. With all those moneysavers, it’s easy to discount the benefit your gift provides, to the lung association. This is a gift about which dea giver can derive a great sense of satisfaction, too.

It marks tiie beginning of anew year, mad a fresh start — that is, until youreceive your credit card bill and realize just how much you spent on presents and food during the holidays. There are a few simple ways to make sure you start your year on the right financial track. •Plan a Christmas budget and stick tti it. Decide on a figure you can realistically afford, then divide the total amount into budgets for gifts, food, and miscellaneous items. • Make a list of people to whom you normally give presents. and check only those you really need to buy a present. •Allocate a reasonable budget for each person before you go shopping • Discuss gift giving with your friends. You’re probably not the only one who's experiencing hard times financially. You might be abb to ail agree not to give a gift this year, or set a pncecap, such: as $15. per person.

Since tny mum has 12 brothers and sisters, her family does this every year. * Make your own gifts. If you enjoy crafts, baking, or art. use your talents and give personal, handmade Christmas gifts that will be treasured. * Extend your Christmas craft to cards and wrapping. Make your own Christmas cards, moke wrapping paper out of magazine montages, ami r cut up last year's- Christmas cards to make gift togs. •* Shop aruuud for the best deals ou Christinas food. and buy only what is needed. You can even ask your guests to each bring one dish to the meal, so you don't have to prepare or buy everything yourself. * Utilize the gift card. It allows you to set your own price limit, and the gift card recipient can wait until after Christinas tu go shopping during all of the post-holiday sales. Don't feel badly if you can't get a gift tor every person that you wuuid like to. In this economy, many people are struggling tu puy their bills, let alone huvuig extra money for presents. When giving gifts — particularly at Christmas — it really is the thought that counts. tttMfag Catering Starting at PennM! Warrenton • 540439-6904 (^arfa»Tn»:kStup)

Wales, Virginia celebrate a lot alike Bvltoaii. Sexton wTImw* Cn—imty Haupmmm Christmas, or Nadnlig’ as it* sometimes called in Wales. really starts at the end of November beginning, of December. Families wifigo into town centers to pidl out a Christmas tree for their homes. In Wales, in rural parts, where there are a number of forestries, some families will go straight to the forestry commissions to collect their tree Artificial trees are also quite popular, especially in the more populated areas, Wales is a small country, which is part of the United Kingdom, lying to the west of Hn gland The land is mostly rural and home to about three million people, with only a small number of large towns and cities. Mid Wales, where Lliwt is mostly roiling hills and ruiming rivers. Once home, the tree wifi he decorated with cotodtfi baubles, tinsel and maybe one or two sets oi lights, A star or angel is usually placed on the top of the tree. Where the tree is placed usu ally varies from family to family. Some households may have more than one tree, possibly two or three situated in various locutions around. the house. Dial doesn't mean the houses are particularly large. A typical house in Wales will be fair ly okt anti traditional.'Most houses are mure than 50 years old. although there has been a lot of home construction in recent years. Houses in Wales, will usually have three or four bedrooms, but: still be quite small compared to homes in Fauquier County. The majority of houses ui Wales are made from brick or stone. Ihe rest of the house may also be decorated with fresh mistletoe, which is said to protect the house from eviL and holly, a sign of eternal life. lust before the start of December, towns and cities across thecouutrv decorate the streets, shop windows and shuppmg centers with large light dis plays and decorations, frees can also be seen off the stfle uf business premises, when driving through the streets. In Decemben these shops will begin selling Chnstmas chocolates, Advent calendars amt Christmas cards to willing customers who will pile into their shops during, the Christmas rush. During this time, them maw also be town bands and choirs out in city centers playing ami singing Chnstmas songs ami collecting monev. Schools will traditionally put on a nativity piav. which the parents will go and see-. Whilst in school, before the Chnstmas bmak. children may also make Christmas decorations, bake cookies and biscuits, ami sing carols. School break, usually begins just a tew days before Christmas, and lasts for about two weeks. Here in. the Unities States, vou have Santa Claus, In Wales and the rest oi the U.K.. we have Father Chnstmas. Father Chnstmas is quite sunilar to Santa Claus, the only different is the name. Around December, which is his busiest ume. he can usually be seen in shops talking, to the children about what they would like tor Christinas and their Christmas, wishes. Children aba send their letters hi him up the chimney.
