Scialabba Hosts Policy Hearing on Workforce Development
CRANBERRY – Rep. Stephenie Scialabba (R-Butler) hosted a policy hearing today with members of the House Republican Policy Committee and the public, which focused on how to develop our workforce to meet the needs of Pennsylvania employers and consumers.

Global Pharma Healthcare Issues Voluntary Nationwide Recall of Artificial Tears Lubricant Eye Drops Due to Possible Contamination
Global Pharma Healthcare is voluntarily recalling all lots within expiry of their Artificial Tears Lubricant Eye Drops, distributed by /EzriCare, LLC- and Delsam Pharma, to the consumer level, due to possible contamination. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) alerted FDA to an investigation of a multi-state cluster of Verona Integron-mediated Metallo-β-lactamase (VIM)- and Guiana-Extended Spectrum-β-Lactamase (GES)- producing carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (VIM-GES-CRPA) infections possibly associated with the use of the artificial tears manufactured by Global Pharma Healthcare. To date, there are 55 reports of adverse events including eye infections, permanent loss of vision, and a death with a bloodstream infection.
Risk Statement: Use of contaminated artificial tears can result in the risk of eye infections that could result in blindness.

County Line 4-H News
On Sunday (January 29) we had our third 4-H meeting. It was held at my farm, Echo Valley Farm. We worked with lamb and piglets. Little Buddy, who is a lamb, needed to have his vaccine. He also needed his tail docked, ear tagged and castrated. He didn’t have a very good day. I got to band his tail. Miley got to tag his ear. Mom gave him a shot. Then Natale held him while mom showed and helped Jessicia to band his testicles. Tails’ piglets needed their iron shot and vitamin shot. They were born just the day before. We each held one and my mom gave them shots. We left Trouble’s piglets alone because she doesn’t like strangers. We talked about why this stuff is needed and how to keep newborn piglets and lambs warm. We washed our hands and had snacks. It was a fun meeting. Maddie, Rolland, Miley, Rosalie, Talyah, Avaree, Ryleigh, Natale, and Maeson. All attend this 4-H meeting. We will see you next time.
Carol J. (Siecker) Morton, 83, of 686 Shelvey Summit Road, Kersey and formerly of Eatonville, WA
Carol J. (Siecker) Morton, 83, of 686 Shelvey Summit Road, Kersey and formerly of Eatonville, WA, passed away Monday, January 30, 2023, at Penn Highlands Elk after a brief illness.
She was born March 31, 1939, in St. Marys, daughter of the late John and Salome Kraus Siecker. She spent most of her youth in Elk County before moving to Nevada. She married the late Frank Morton in Birdeye, NV and lived in Reno for nearly 50 years. She then moved to Eatonville, WA and lived there for close to 20 years.
Carol is survived by her sister, Diana Beimel (Harold) of Kersey; her brother, Roger Siecker (Penny) of Reno, NV; two nieces: Kathy Downs and Debbie Vincent both of Washington; a nephew, RJ Siecker of Nevada; and by her adoring cat, Pretty Boy.
In addition to her husband and parents, Carol was preceded in death by her son, Thomas Morton.
Carol was artistic, creative, and enjoyed her natural surroundings. She liked to paint and embroider, she would make the most lovely tablecloths. She was a kind person, loved animals-especially her cat, and had a special love for her nieces and nephew.
There will be no services.
The family will have a private ceremony for Carol at a future date.
Memorials, if desired, may be made to the Elk County Humane Society, 1029 E. Eschbach Road, St. Marys, PA 15857.
The Lynch-Radkowski Funeral Home is in charge of arrangements. Online condolences may be offered at www.lynch-radkowski.com.
Muccio announces re-election bid for Coroner
| Muccio announces re-election bid for Coroner Michelle A. Muccio of St. Marys, has announced her candidacy for re-election for Elk County Coroner. Michelle is a lifelong resident of the area and a graduate of Elk County Christian High School. She holds an Associate’s Degree in Funeral Service Management as well as a Diploma in Funeral Directing and Embalming from the Pittsburgh Institute of Mortuary Science. She is a licensed Funeral Director and Embalmer and owns the Lynch-Green Funeral Home in St. Marys, as well as funeral homes in Ridgway and Kersey. Her mortuary education provided significant medical training in anatomy and pathology, as well as extensive training in identifying cause and manner of death. She is also highly trained in the medical and psychological aspects surrounding a death, and has attended yearly conferences and training seminars to remain current with all aspects of the Coroner’s Office. She is currently working towards her ABMDI certification (American Board of Medico-Legal Death Investigators). Muccio took office in January of 2012 and has investigated more than 1400 deaths while in office. She has evaluated and authorized more than 1500 cremations. Michelle feels that she continues to be the most qualified for this position given her formal education in death care, her experience serving as coroner and the excellent relationships forged with the local fire departments, police and ambulance personnel. In her tenure as coroner, the office has run smoothly and she has been fiscally responsible with her yearly budget. Muccio is a member of the Pennsylvania Coroner’s Association where she serves on the Vital Statistics and Nominations Committees. She also sits on the MDAIR Team (Medication Death and Incident Review Team), which evaluates and offers guidance for deaths involving prescription medications designed to aid with addiction treatment. She also also pioneered two community-minded programs, one being the Cribs for Kids Program, which provides cribs to families who otherwise wouldn’t have access to a safe sleep space for their child, and the second is the Elder Justice Coalition, which helps bring awareness and education to older adults. She states that a great deal of time and dedication is required to serve as Coroner, and that she has served and will continue to serve the community with utmost compassion and professionalism. Her main objective is to ensure that the respect and privacy of both the decedent and their family is foremost in every situation. The Coroner is responsible for things such as investigating unattended deaths, issuing death certificates, and issuing cremation authorizations to area funeral directors. The coroner must work closely with local and state authorities during death investigations as well as be available around the clock when needed, something Muccio states is already second nature to her. She is grateful for the support that has been shown to her over her last 12 years in office from the community, the EMS providers, the Fire Departments, and Elkland Search and Rescue. Michelle and her family live in St. Marys and are members of Sacred Heart Church, where she also serves on Parish Council. She is also a member of the Pennsylvania Funeral Directors Association. The continued support from the community is greatly appreciated, and Michelle would also appreciate write-ins on the Democratic ticket. |

Think About It
Internal or External?
By
B.J. Knefley
Approximately 30 years ago I developed asthma. The exact reasons and source of the problem was never identified. I went through all sorts of tests to identify allegiants, but none could be found that would have given me that type of response. Every winter I’d suffer from acute asthma despite being on a regiment of medications throughout the year. Once it happened, steroids we prescribed and eventually I’d recover, and spring would be here, and I’d be okay until the following winter. This year has been no different except that this time we did some blood work and found that the type of asthma that I’m dealing with isn’t caused by outside allegiants but rather something in my own white blood cells. I’m being attacked from within. What would normally be the bodies response to fight off infection is causing inflammation in my lungs. The result of course is acute asthma. Now to find the right course of treatment that will address the real culprit, my own body. What is causing my physical body is an internal problem has made me think of how our emotional health is also more apt to be an internal problem as well.
Our emotional and spiritual response to life is more often caused by our responses to external stimulation. In Mark 7:15, Jesus said, “It’s not what goes into your body that defiles you; you are defiled by what comes from your heart.” When we see things happening to us, we become victims. Our anger, fears, worry and anxiety all come from within us. We give our control away to others who then manipulate us with their words and behaviors, but we allow that. We give our power away to others. We allow them to control our feelings and emotions. We wonder why we’re a wreck not realizing that we’re doing it to ourselves. We think we’re being attacked from the outside while all the time it’s our internal responses that are causing the problem. Changing the inward response means changing the way we think and respond. It’s not if someone or something would change, it’s if we would change. That’s internal not external. Sadly, many see the irritants in life as the problem while all along it’s our response to the irritants. Remember, the only power you have is the one over yourself, never others or things. Think about it.

PITT-BRADFORD TO HOLD EXHIBITION BY ART PROFESSOR
BRADFORD, Pa. – The University of Pittsburgh at Bradford will hold an exhibition by Sunyoung Lee, assistant professor of art, Feb. 3 through 24 at the KOA Art Gallery in Blaisdell Hall on campus.
The exhibition, “Beyond Language: Build like a Painter, Paint like a Poet, and Write like an Activist,” opens with a reception and talk by Lee at noon Feb. 3. The public is welcome to attend. A light lunch will be provided.
Born in Korea, Lee has developed her cross-media, genre-bending approach based on literature and Eastern Philosophy.
“To me, going from the written word to painting is like translating between two different languages, and I cannot tell which one is first – the word or images,” Lee said. “In these pieces, painting and architecture are inspired by literature – myths, poems, novels and plays.”
Lee has previously held exhibitions in New York, Michigan, California, Massachusetts, England and Korea. After coming to the United States, she earned a Master of Fine Arts in painting from Syracuse (N.Y.) University and a Master of Science in architecture at the University of California, Berkeley.
The exhibition is presented by Pitt-Bradford Arts. See more upcoming events at www.upb.pitt.edu/TheArts.
