What are the fish
doing these days?
By Bruce Auchly, FWP
Ever wonder on a cold,
snowy winter day what fish
are doing under the ice?
The short answer is:
about the same as the rest
of the year. They breathe,
eat and try to avoid being
eaten. There are, however,
some differences in winter.
First, it’s important
to remember that
freshwater fish like reptiles
and amphibians are
coldblooded. (Scientists
prefer the more precise
word, poikilotherms, but A bluegill in an ice hole at Winter Harbor Pond. photo by FWP Region 6

Small Choices Can Make a Big Difference
By Brenda Sebastian
The Tipping Point by Malcolm
Gladwell addresses the concept
that small things can make big
differences. I use this book to reflect
on thinking more broadly about
selling the message of preparedness.
What can educators do to inspire,
teach, and guide students in being
prepared for each day in their lives?
Is this a process that should be
focused specifically at the seniors
at Opheim High or is preparedness
taught when our students begin
preschool and gradually with each
grade internalized?
This notion that small things
can make a big difference is tied
to a theory that is near and dear to
my heart – Chaos theory. One of
the main tenets of chaos theory is
sensitivity to initial conditions.
That sensitivity sometimes
means that small things can make
a big difference. This is evident in
everyday life. You can evidence this
in yourself. You may notice that on
occasion one thing, however small,
puts you in a bad mood. That mood
doesn’t dramatically change who
you are, but it subtly changes the
way you are viewing and interacting
in the world. Conversely, one small
thing can put you in a great mood
which also subtly changes your lens
on the world.
If you look for this phenomenon
in our everyday life and pay
attention to it, you will find that
being able to identify and affect
the lens you are using is powerful
stuff. There is a hardcore theory
that underlies this reality. Chaos
theory comes out of the quantum
physics realm which is enough to
make anyone go screaming in the
other direction. But, you don’t need
to understand all the minutia of the
theory to understand the message
that small things can make a big
difference.
It is my understanding of this
theory that helped me realize that
one of the most profound things
an individual can do in this life
to change the world is to perform
small acts of kindness whenever
possible. My mom taught me this
concept through actions not words,
but it wasn’t until I had to write the
eulogy for her funeral that I fully
appreciated that her contribution
to the world was more about a
thousand small drops of water than
a big splash.
I am not talking just about
being kind to others, but also kind
to ourselves in education. Yes,
small actions can effect a grade.
Small acts of preparedness can
leap into great self-confidence.
For example, jotting down notes
in class, bringing a pencil, paper,
and listening to the voice who
is teaching. Just these small
changes could affect your grade.
These things may inspire you to
continue a road of preparedness.
By taking an hour to review your
notes, underline the headings
in a chapter, and as you read
the content; don’t forget to ask
yourself questions. These small
affects in your schedule make a big
difference in lessons.
One small drop matters and it
ever so slightly changes a universe
that is sensitive and interconnected
when multiplied this effect can
be profound. After all, it is the
culmination of all these small drops
that ultimately create the proverbial
ocean that is our humanity. You
don’t have to understand chaos
theory to understand that your
interaction in this world, this
school, affects others beyond those
you have touched.
I try and remember in my day
to day life that I have the power to
affect not only my lens but others.
I know that smiling and saying
hello to a stranger can matter in
the big scheme of things. I know
that sharing with someone they
look great can change a person’s
wardrobe selections (yes, this was
me – one compliment on a top a
few years back and I suddenly
started wearing color a few days a
week) Opening a door for another
person, offering a smile and being
polite and gracious generally has
an effect on that person and in turn
creates a ripple affect outward.
I don’t know if my mom
understood how profound an
impact her small kindnesses could
have on others in the bigger picture.
I don’t think she analyzed it from
a theoretical perspective like her
daughter is inclined to do. I think
she did it because she understood
from her own life how valuable
these small kindnesses were. So
today, whether you are an educator
or not, be purposeful in practicing
small kindnesses and realize that
when you give a smile you may
get one back. When you make the
effort to study the Periodic Table a
little each day, expect after a while
you will understand it and perform
great on your exam. Driving that
purpose for good in your life is the
tipping point of a capable bright
and talented mind.
So today, be mindful of your
actions by speaking a kind word
or gracious gesture is the kind of
stuff that changes the world ever
so slightly – and small changes can
make a big difference all the way
from pre – school to graduation.

Moron Gun Control (Get It?)
Here’s the scenario. The
government has just passed a bill (BS
549) through both houses which
if signed by the president Kamala
Harris will make it unlawful to keep a
gun in your house....anywhere, anytime.
The law reads that while you are still allowed to
“keep and bear” arms there are a few restrictions one
must follow in order to stay out of jail. These laws don’t
apply to felons, gang-bangers, bank robbers, burglars,
rapists and murderers however. Only law-abiding
citizens need comply.
The first new rule is that you must not keep your
firearm in the same dwelling where people dwell. It
must be kept in a bomb-proof, fire-proof, burglar-proof
structure at least 50 feet from the aforesaid dwelling.
Any ammo needed for your firearm (s) must be
kept in a storage container at least 50 feet from where
the guns are kept and not inside the home.
In the case of a burglar, rapist or murderer entering
your home in the dark of night without a key or password
and you are awakened when he/she knocks over a lamp
you must not panic. You have protection. Somewhere.
The first thing you need to do is shout out to the
intruder saying something like this: “good evening sir
or madam. It is totally inconvenient for you to be here
but seeing as how you are I invite you into the kitchen
for a cup of coffee and a couple over-easy eggs. I promise
I won’t look at your face in order to identify you because
I know you are going to kill me and my family anyway
so it won’t really matter if I can identify you.”
Anyway the alleged crook complies and you sit and
sip a cuppa. In awhile you ask “may I be excused for a
few minutes? I need to go out to my shed where I keep
my firearms so that I can protect myself and my family
who are asleep upstairs.”
MID-CENTURY MODERN HOME
This home of distinction is for sale and ready for
a growing family. Close to schools and other in-
town amenities, this 2,880 square foot modern
design home features an open and spacious
floor plan! It has 3 bedrooms upstairs, 1
sleeping room in the basement, 1 ¾ baths and
an attached garage. Enjoy the spacious sun
bathed family room and kitchen/dining room.

and materials. Updated furnace, the A/C is

“Then I’ll need a few more minutes to be able to
find where I buried my ammo according to government
specifications. It shouldn’t take too long. Please, feel free
to make yourself a sandwich while I’m gone.”
So whilst the alleged crook is searching for makings
of a sammich you scurry out and retrieve your single-
shot, rim fire .22 rifle (the only gun your government
and Kamie has approved for you to have) and then you
hurry off to the other side of the garage to search for the
bullets you buried under the rabbit hutch.
You thank your lucky stars that you have Kamala to
lead the government in their quest to let citizens own
firearms, and, in case you or one of your family gets
shot by this alleged, Uzo-carrying crook, you kneel and
say a quick prayer (being careful to not utter the word
“God”), thanking Ms Harris for getting Medicare For
All passed into law! Hooray!
It doesn’t matter that your taxes have increased
85% in order to pay for all the socialist amenities.....but
I digress.
When you return to your house you find Mr Crook
has taken to the couch for a short nap. You wake him to
tell him you have returned with your rifle and bullets
and that if he has enjoyed enough of your hospitality it
is time for him to leave.
You point your .22 at him and say “please Mr.
Alleged Crook, don’t make me use this. It just wouldn’t
be fair after all the trouble I had getting my firearm and
the bullets. It just wouldn’t be fair.”
But, you find that this burglar, soon to be rapist,
soon to be murderer, doesn’t really care about you or
your family. He has control. He has the firepower to
stand off a dozen men like you. He just wants your stuff.
As he turns to leave you thank him with a small
smile on your lips. He turns back around and seeing
your smile/smirk, shoots you in the face.
So much for legal gun control.
That’s it for now folks. Thanks for listening.

Hey Montana students, interested in grizzly bears?
Montana WILD is Montana
Fish, Wildlife & Parks premier fish
and wildlife conservation education
center based in Helena. Each year,
Montana WILD staff and volunteers
teach about outdoor recreation,
Montana fish and wildlife,
improving and protecting habitat,
and reducing human/wildlife
conflict to more than 5,000 students
from 100 schools from across the
state, and hundreds more adults and
families through community and
outreach programs.
MT WILD wants to reach more
Montanans, which is why we are
piloting the Grizzly Bear Distance
Learning Program for middle and
high school students with Inspired
Classroom (IC) (inspiredclassrooms.
com) this Winter/Spring. The
program involves asking Montana
students to come to the table and
share their ideas about managing
this magnificent but complex, and,
at times, controversial predator
through participation in the FWP
Grizzly Bear IC Challenge.
The FWP Grizzly Bear IC
Challenge is a problem-solving
project hosted on a virtual platform.
Students can also participate in two
Livestream events with (1) FWP
bear managers, and (2) a panel of
stakeholders. Teachers can embed
the Challenge into their curriculum
any way they choose: as a whole
class, student teams, or independent
project. Students walk through
the steps of problem-solving as
they react to a real-world scenario
and view a video introduction of
Montana’s bear managers. As they
research, brainstorm, apply criteria,
develop action plans, and submit
solutions for review, students are
critically thinking and developing
real-world skills.

Rosendale launches task force to fight exploitation of seniors
afternoon the creation of the Senior Financial to their financial assets.
State Auditor Matt Rosendale announced on Tuesday family members, close friends, and others with access
Exploitation Task Force to better protect Montana’s
older adult population from financial crimes and abuse.
The Senior Financial Exploitation Task Force will
bring together ideas, resources, and expertise from
members of several organizations to combat financial
exploitation statewide.
Representatives from multiple state agencies
joined Rosendale at the State Auditor’s office today to
discuss ways to increase communication and prevent
the financial exploitation of Montana’s seniors.
Attendees included Attorney General Tim Fox, DPHHS
Director Sheila Hogan, Michael Hagenlock from Adult
Protective Services, Melanie Hall from Banking, Wyatt
Glade from the County Attorneys Association, and
other representatives from the attorney general’s office,
DPHHS, and APS.
“We must come together to protect vulnerable
Montanans from being abused and exploited,”
Rosendale said. “Combatting this problem requires a
multi-disciplinary approach, and this new task force
will help ensure that senior financial exploitation is not
tolerated in Montana.”
The launch of the new task force follows the
implementation of House Bill 24 from the 2017
legislative session, which allows financial professionals
to temporarily delay disbursements from vulnerable
Montanans’ accounts when financial exploitation is
suspected and report the issue to the State Auditor’s
office. Since HB 24 was enacted, Rosendale’s office has
received 30 reports of suspected exploitation and has
been able to prevent more than $5 million in problematic
transactions from taking place.
Montana has the second oldest state population
in the country, and financial exploitation of elders is
a growing problem. People over 65 control the vast
majority of the country’s wealth after a lifetime of work
and saving, making the senior population the prime
target for financial abuse.
Rosendale’s office reports that 75 percent of
securities fraud cases it has investigated in recent years
have involved a person older than 65 and estimates that
Montana seniors lose millions of dollars each year due
to securities fraud and scams.
Senior financial exploitation is a highly
underreported problem because of shame, fear, and
confusion. Older Montanans are often victimized by
The State Auditor’s office will use the Senior Financial
Exploitation Task Force to better coordinate with other
state agencies in cases that involve exploitation across
multiple jurisdictions.
Red flags of senior financial exploitation include:
• A person accompanying an elder shows excessive
interest in their finances and is controlling of the
elder’s conversations and interactions with other
people
• Elder lacks knowledge about his or her financial
status or shows reluctance to discuss finances
• Elder moves away from existing relationships and
toward new associations with other “friends” or
strangers
• Elder displays unusual excitement over a financial
windfall or prize check
• The sudden appearance of previously uninvolved
relatives claiming rights to the elder’s affairs or assets
• Caretaker, relative, or friend begins conducting
financial transactions on behalf of an elder without
proper documentation
• Abrupt changes to financial documents, such as power
of attorney, wills and trusts, property title, and deeds
• Uncharacteristic nonpayment for services, which
may indicate a loss of funds or access to funds
Noticeable changes in a senior’s established banking
or financial management habits, especially large
withdrawals or attempts to wire large sums of money
Rosendale encourages anyone who suspects financial
exploitation or fraud to contact his office at (406) 444-
2040 or at www.csimt.gov.
