STILLWATER – Thanks to a generous gift from brothers Jalal and Mohammad Farzaneh, students and faculty at Oklahoma State University will be able to expand their knowledge in the area of Iranian and Persian Gulf studies.
The Division of International Studies and Outreach at OSU hosted a celebration Thursday at 4 p.m. in the Wes Watkins Center to honor the Farzanehs for their $1.6 million gift to OSU.
The total impact will be more than $6 million after adding the matching funds from Boone Pickens and the Oklahoma Legislature.
Their gift and additional matching funds will support a faculty chair and four professorships in Iranian and Persian Gulf studies.
The faculty members selected for these endowed positions could come from any college at OSU. The annual support these funds provide will allow the honorees to explore their disciplines — whether that is the liberal arts, engineering, agriculture or another discipline — from the perspective of Iran and the Persian Gulf.
“Iran is a fascinating country with one of the world’s oldest continuous civilizations,” said OSU President Burns Hargis.
“OSU applauds the Farzaneh brothers for their generosity and vision for international studies. This gift will help us better prepare students to succeed in a global economy.”
The Farzanehs said at a young age their father taught them the importance
of education. Their father encouraged all his children to pursue a higher education.
“Our late father believed education not only built a person’s character, but was also crucial to building society,” Mohammad Farzaneh said.

Charlotte Irene Clark, an active Perry business woman, is turning 90 years old this month.
A come-and-go celebration in her honor will be held from 2 to 4 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 15, at The Event Center, 424 North Seventh Street, a business which she owns.
The birthday party is being hosted by her sons and daughters and their families. Friends and relatives are invited to attend without further invitation. She welcomes cards, but has asked only for the gift of your presence.
Irene was born Feb. 16, 1925 in Hollis, OK, the daughter of Charles and Nellie (Bailey) White. She was the oldest of four girls, born three years apart. “All of us are widows now,” said Irene. Her sisters are Hazel Elwanda, who lives in a nursing home in Chickasha, Lois Cleceda, Oklahoma City, and Betty Katherine, Edmond. Growing up, also a part of the family was a dog named Ole’ Sox....a black dog with white paws.
Her dad owned a restaurant in Hollis, but his legs got so he couldn’t stand and work, so when Irene was two years old, they moved to Sayre to some farm property her mother had inherited, intending to “farm and get rich,” laughed Irene. “However, the drought and depression hit and that blew their dream of getting rich farming....although I think they were always kidding about the getting rich part.”
She married Gordon Wendell Clark on Nov. 13, 1942, in Sayre at the home of his aunt and uncle, Laura and Will Cost, who was a Baptist preacher. Gordon had been in the military about a year.
Irene attended school in Sayre, graduating from Sayer High School

Donations are being sought to help pay for medi-cal expenses being incurred by Brandon Evans of Billings.
Brandon is a 1990 graduate of Billings High School and will celebrate his 10th year working at Melling Sintered Metals (formerly Rush Metals) in March but his deteriorating health condition has made it impos-sible for him to continue working at this time.
Brandon is on oxygen 24/7 and only has 40 per-cent of his lung capacity. He has an enlarged heart with right-side heart damage, severe edema and sleep apnea. He is currently on a BiPAP machine that is set at a very high air pressure limit of 23.
Funds raised will help assist the couple with the cost of sending Brandon to pulmonary therapy at least three times a week to try and help improve his lung func-tion.
If Brandon’s lung function does not improve within six weeks, his doctor has suggested he may need to be put on a portable ventilator at home.
Brandon’s wife Cat (Cathy Hammock), a 1993 graduate of Billings High School, works for the Town of Billings as recreation and housing director and for Brown-Dugger Funeral Home in Perry.
Parents of the couple are Jim and Carey (Koke) Evans and Ferrold and Becky Hammock, all of Billings.

90 years: Continued from page 1in April 1943. At the time of her graduation, she was already married several months.
Being in the U.S. Army during war time, people didn’t take lightly to honeymoons, so the couple never had one. Gordon was stationed in California, so after graduation Irene joined him in California. He was shipped to the southwest Pacific, so she came back to Oklahoma and established her home in Oklahoma City and went to work at Douglas Aircraft Base, home of “Rosie the Rooster.”
After about a year, she decided Gordon should be getting out soon, so “being 18 and young, I up and moved to California, where I stayed for a while with my sister.”
Gordon didn’t get discharged as soon as she thought. She moved to Berkeley, thinking she’d be close to Gordon when he returned home from the war in the South Pacific, thus being discharged there.
She went to work in a bomb factory, making two-foot-long bombs. A total of 90 of these bombs went under the wing of each plane. However, Gordon was discharged in Sacramento and he surprised her as he
came knocking on her door at 2:30 a.m. (Her son Cary and his wife Janet last year visited in Berkley and took a picture of the home she lived in.)
After his discharge from the military, Gordon and Irene searched for two weeks and finally found a 1939 Plymouth for $1,000 and paid cash for the vehicle from the money she had saved while working and making bombs. Not many cars were available at the time because every thing metal went for the war.
The couple drove back to Oklahoma to see their parents, then to Stillwater where they purchased a home for $4,200. They remodeled it into two three-room apartments on the ground floor to rent out, and one two-room apartment upstairs, where they lived while Gordon attended Oklahoma A&M (now Oklahoma State University).
Irene attended two years at OSU and has taken numerous classes at Meridian Technology School.
Two little boys later, Gordon graduated in January 1949, and the A&M placement bureau sent them to Kansas for a vocational agriculture teaching position. There were no available jobs in Oklahoma. They were at Ellis, KS, for three years, Dodge City three years, and Fowler, KS, five years, where Gordon taught vocational agriculture.
They lived in Kansas for 11 years, from 1949 to 1960, and this is where seven more children were born. While teaching, Gordon often took other jobs to help support the family.
The couple moved to Perry in 1960. This adventure started when Gordon was headed to Stillwater to look into purchasing a dairy farm and stopped to visit one of his buddies in Perry...Kenneth Hicks. Kenneth told him the OTASCO store on the corner was for sale. Gordon was unsure about purchasing it, stating he was not much of a salesman. They went to visit with Wilson Clark (no relation), owner of the store at that time. After returning home to Kansas and discussing the idea of purchasing the store with Irene, they took the plunge and bought the
OTASCO store in Perry, starting a long-time business relationship with the community.
During their time in the store, Irene worked — keeping the books, paying the bills, as a sales clerk, unloading freight trucks, sweeping the floor, etc. “I did whatever no one else liked to do,” laughed Irene.
The couple had 11 children and decided they should make it an even dozen....however,
they were blessed with identical triplets, making them a total of 14 children.
They are Larry and his wife Marena of Dallas, TX; Terry and his wife Debra, Troutdale, PA; Donnie, who passed away with cancer about five years ago; Janet, who now resides in Perry and assists her mother with the businesses; Jackie and her husband Phillip Galvan of Ponca City; Carol and her husband John David Boldt of Gainesville, TX; David and his wife Pat of Edmond; Kay and her husband Billy Parrish, Granbury, TX; Mark of Tulsa; Patty and her husband Mike Crowley of Stillwater; Rena and her husband Scott Wheatley of Perry; and the triplets, Cary and his wife Janet of Edmond; Chris and his wife Linda of Piedmont; and Charles and his wife Debra, of Edmond. Irene has a total of 34 grandchildren and 41 great-grandchildren, which includes ‘step’ in both categories.
When asked how she raised 14 children, Irene said it takes great organization. “We always ate cafeteria style and we always had room for one more,” said Irene. “I would begin dishing up the food, not always realizing we had a guest in line until they would make a comment.”
She said, “Many times I would get up at 4 a.m. to sew on buttons, mend or sew a dress or suit. I had to teach the kids to work, get out of bed and take responsibility and I let them know I didn’t run room service. Everyone knew their job.” In addition to sewing, she said she also likes to crochet.
“The older children helped with the younger ones,” said Irene. “When the triplets were born, each of the three older girls chose a baby and that child became their responsibility. To this day, they refer to their triplet as their baby,” smiled Irene.
“When someone would tell me you can’t do that, I’d say, just watch me. I learned when you have enough desire, God will help you.”
Adopting her dad’s faith, Irene has been a lifelong member of the Church of Christ.
When asked what advice she would give this generation, she said, “I’m not sure they would want to hear what I have to say. I don’t see this generation as being responsible and caring. They don’t count change back and many times when I go into a store, I don’t even have anyone greet me. I would advise young people today to become dedicated to their future and get an education. I am truly concerned about the generation that is coming up. They need ambition.”
Still working as a business woman, Irene, with the help of her daughter Janet, took her building on Seventh Street that formerly housed Dollar General Store, and when she couldn’t get another retail store to locate here, turned it into an event center to help meet a Perry need. She then bought another building on the corner of Cedar and Sixth Street, and created a smaller event center to meet other needs. She also has a couple of rent houses which she takes care of.

Oklahoma State senior guard Anthony Hickey was honored as Big 12 Newcomer of the Week for his efforts in wins over No. 25 Texas and No. 8 Kansas last week, it was announced today.
Hickey scored 15 points to play a central role in Oklahoma State’s win over the Longhorns in Austin last Wednesday, then came back to score 15 more points in the Cowboys’ win over the Jayhawks in Stillwater Saturday. Hickey added four steals against Texas and two steals against Kansas. In the two games combined, he drained five of his nine three-point attempts (.556 pct.)
It’s the second time Hickey has earned this recognition, as he was honored after leading OSU to a win over Memphis earlier in the season.
On the year, Hickey averages 9.1 points, 4.7 rebounds and a team-best 3.4 assists per game. He ranks second in the Big 12 and 22nd nationally with 2.13 steals per game.
Hickey is Big 12 Newcomer of the Week

(NAPSA) — As more physician practices refuse traditional health insurance and fewer medical students pursue primary care medicine, accessing and communicating with your doctor becomes more difficult — but there could soon be change for the better.
E-commerce has changed how consumers buy virtually everything. The use of e-commerce in health care adds efficiencies and opens new pathways to addressing the nation’s health care needs.
The cost to provide online health care services is lower; it can be excellent for the majority of minor acute or stable chronic disease care and where the underlying diagnosis is rarely in question.
Given the breadth of current technology, it will become common to communicate with a provider through a secure, handheld device such as a smartphone. The mobile device is one of the most important and cost-effective health care tools.
“mHealth” is the term used for delivery of health care products or services through mobile devices. The value of mHealth is accessibility, since it’s available to everyone with a smartphone.
While tele-health is valuable, it attempts to re-create the medical office online. At a time when primary care providers are simply besieged, the efficiency and effectiveness of mHealth can help them address
‘Doc’ Thornbury: a health care pioneer
by Jeffrey Lewis many patients’ needs.Dr. William C.
Thornbury, Jr. (Doc), a primary care physician who practices in south central Kentucky, is pioneering this effort. About four years ago, when looking at the challenge of health delivery in his rural practice, he didn’t kick the can down the road; rather, he asked, “Why not pioneer a solution?”
His team developed “house call via smartphone.” He did this to maintain the relationship with his established patients and improve their access to care.
Their solution: meVisit (which stands for mobile e-Visit), a technology designed by a doctor for use by doctors. meVisit is a mobile model engineered to provide a secure encounter in three to five minutes, the time deemed necessary to keep a physician engaged and the service sustainable.
Doc quickly realized that meVisit was more comprehensive than office notes. It was the second generation of telehealth.
Doc came to understand that the difference between mHealth and traditional telemedicine
was efficiency. Mobility allowed the encounter to follow the clinician. An immediate response wasn’t necessary in most cases. Turnaround time was quick and it yielded compensation. Plus, mobility in online care meant fewer missed office follow-up appointments.
The design allowed the clinician to determine if or when a synchronous phone or video chat was necessary. Doc collaborated with the University of Kentucky in studying the mobile-to-mobile delivery model.
They found that 80 percent of the encounters were safely handled via asynchronous e-visits without affecting outcomes. The remaining 20 percent were augmented by a phone call.
The power of meVisit is practically unlimited. Homebound Medicare patients can have eMobile access to care without the need to leave the house. Every market has embraced mobility and ecommerce except health care. The time for change is now.

The earliest type of timekeeper, dating from 3500 B.C., was the shadow clock, or gnomon, a vertical stick or obelisk that casts a shadow. An Egyptian shadow clock of the eighth century B.C. is still in existence.

Eagle pilot:Continued from page 1
F-15C Eagle pilot Dustin Johnson being congratulated some of his peers.
an F-15C Eagle pilot. “The 493d Fighter Squadron has a key mission
within the 48th Fighter Wing and United States Air Forces in Europe: to answer our nation’s call for air superiority anytime...anywhere. We are a forward operating location perfectly positioned to respond to any crisis in the Middle East and Europe — an area of responsibility that is historically dynamic and recently seen a resurgence of activity. Our location and our mission make us very unique, and very busy!
“2014 was no different for the Grim Reapers. Our country, and the Air Force, asked a lot of the squadron this year. We participated in two operational NATO alert missions and two flying training deployments. The first real-world operational mission was a four-month Baltic Air Policing tasking operating out of Siauliai Air Base, Lithuania, and the second was the Icelandic Air Surveillance mission conducted, from Keflavik, Iceland.
“Our training deployments consisted of two large force training events with our European partners. The first was to participate in NATO’s Tactical Leadership Program out of Los Llanos Air Base in Albacete, Spain, and the second was Exercise Thracian Eagle operating out of Graf Ignatievo Air Base in Plovdiv, Bulgaria. Both our real-world and training missions are extremely challenging but also critically important to promote stability and reassure our NATO allies in the region.
“Dustin, or Jammer as he is known within the squadron, is doing an outstanding job as one of my Flight Commanders. He is responsible for the training and supervision of all the pilots in his flight to ensure they are qualified and ready to rapidly deploy to accomplish the missions I mentioned above. While he is relatively new to our squadron, he has quickly become a highly respected instructor pilot and is doing remarkably well,
“Thank you for your continued support of Dustin as he continues to selflessly serve our country — you should be very proud. I’m sorry his service keeps him so far away right now but our mission is an important one,... and I hope it also provides an opportunity of a lifetime to travel and see Europe. We look forward to 2015 as it will be another busy but exciting year for the Reapers.”
Dustin, born in Perry, is the grandson of Harry Johnson, Perry, and the late Carol Johnson, and Randy and Sandy Cockrum, Perry.
He graduated from high school in Columbus, KS. He is a big brother to Zane, a senior at Perry High School, and sister, Cassandra, a seventh grader at Perry Junior High School.
Friday, Feb. 6 was Celebrate National Wear Red Day to raise awareness about women and heart disease. Employees at City Hall joined the effort by wearing red to work Friday. The color red represents strength, joy and power and during American Heart Month in February. It symbolizes the fight against heart disease in women. Heart disease is the leading cause of death for men and women in the United States. Every year, one in four deaths are caused by heart disease. The good news? Heart disease can often be prevented when people make healthy choices and manage their health conditions.
