GOOD MORNING Woman, 89, dies in Hamilton crash HAMILTON — An 89-year-old Hamilton woman was killed in a crash Thursday afternoon in downtown Hamilton. Hattie Hulbert’s car pulled from a grocery store parking lot in the 3800 block of East Bellefontaine Road around 3:40 p.m. Thursday, said Hamilton Town Marshal Jeremy Warner. It was struck by a pickup truck operated by Tyler Nilson, 23, of Angola. Nilson could not avoid the collision, Warner said. He was not injured. The road was closed for around two hours while crash reconstruction specialists from Steuben County Sheriff’s Department and Angola Police Department worked at the scene.

AUBURN — The DeKalb County Fair Association Friday broke ground on a new horse barn on the fairgrounds on South Union Street. The ceremony came near the end of a week filled with activities at the fairgrounds during the DeKalb County Free Fall Fair. The fair association will demolish its existing horse barn and construct a 27,389-square-foot building with a 4,802-square-foot attached canopy area. The new building will occupy the south end of

Auction caps 4-H fair successes BY KATHRYN BASSETT kbassett@kpcmedia.com

AUBURN — It was a fine week at the DeKalb County Free fall Fair for 4-H’er Madisyn Murphy. She took home grand champion honors in 4-H judging of swine, meat wether goats and exhibition poultry. Friday, she capped off her victories by receiving a $2,900 bid on her champion goat at the 4-H Livestock Auction, setting a new auction record for a goat. “It makes me very happy,” Murphy said of her success at the fair. “It took a lot of work and dedication.” Murphy, 14, attends Garrett High School and is in her sixth year of 4-H. This marks her third year showing goats. Friday’s goat auction attracted another record-breaking bid when Ashley Lang received $2,800 for her grand champion dairy wether. “I worked really hard,” Lang said of her goat project. She also thanked her parents for their help and encouragement. Lang is the daughter of Jon and Janine Zehr. She plans to use her auction proceeds toward next year’s 4-H livestock project or for college. She hopes to study to become a veterinarian, she said. Bidders were generous in other livestock categories. In the beef auction, Joshua Clifford’s grand champion beef steer sold for $3,500. Complete Maintenance Service was the high bidder. “Friends and Family of Tabby Clifford” bid $3,200 for Tabitha Clifford’s reserve grand champion steer. In the dairy beef category, Ben Davis Chevrolet paid $3,350 for Justin Niles’ reserve grand champion dairy steer and Brand Dairy Farm bid $3,600 for

WASHINGTON (AP) — Time running short, the Democratic-controlled Senate passed urgent legislation Friday to avert a government shutdown early next week, and President Barack Obama lectured House Republicans to stop “appeasing the tea party” and quickly follow suit. Despite the presidential plea — and the urgings of their own leaders — House GOP rebels showed no sign of retreat in their drive to use the threat of a shutdown to uproot the nation’s three-year-old health care law. “We now move on to the next stage of this battle,” said Sen. Ted Cruz, the Texas Republican who is a face of the “Defund Obamacare” campaign in the Senate and is in close contact with allies in the House. First effects of a shutdown could show up as early as Tuesday if Congress fails to approve money to keep the government going by the Monday-midnight start of the new fiscal year. “Think about who you are hurting” if government services are interrupted, the president said at the White House, as House Speaker John Boehner pondered his next move in a fast-unfolding showdown — not only between Republicans and Democrats but between GOP leaders and conservative insurgents.

Women’s Leadership Council plans sessions United Way sponsors two information events Oct. 10 AUBURN — The United Way of DeKalb County has announced a new initiative, the Women’s Leadership Council. All DeKalb County women are invited to be a part of this collaborative effort that will bring diverse women of all ages together to network and address important community issues. “The women in our community get things done,” said United Way executive Julie Hill-Lauer. “We want to bring these women together to channel their energy, knowledge, resources and passion in a focused effort to address challenges, strengthen our community and support the work of United Way.” Paula Mercer and Burtie Rynearson are the volunteer co-chairs leading the effort. “A goal of this initiative is to bring relevant information to women about the work of United Way and other nonprofits

serving our community,” said Rynearson. “We intend to involve them in volunteer opportunities, give them access to educational and informational opportunities, and encourage them to mentor and network with other women. We also certainly plan on having fun!” One focus area for the council will be to support United Way’s work in early education. United Way is committed to addressing issues impacting children ages 0 to 3, through collaboration with Learning Link, an education initiative of the Community Foundation of DeKalb County, to build new partnerships with community members interested in early childhood issues. “The future efforts of the WLC are not all defined at this point,” Mercer added. “We want the women involved to bring their ideas, experiences, knowledge and perspectives to the table and assist us

in identifying the priority issues in DeKalb County. There will also be opportunities to serve on committees and be a part of the WLC leadership team.” Annual membership dues will support the work of United Way in DeKalb County. Workplace campaign contributions also qualify women for the WLC membership levels. United Way is hosting two free informational sessions for women to attend and learn more about the opportunity. The sessions will be offered at noon and 5:30 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 10, at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church, 500 E. 7th St., Auburn. Each session will last approximately one hour. A light lunch will be served at the noon session, and appetizers and dessert will be available at 5:30 p.m. Sharon Zonker, a dynamic local advocate for women, will offer words of inspiration at both events. People planning to attend are asked to RSVP to the United Way office by Oct. 7 at 927-0995 or michele@ unitedwaydekalb.org.

School shooter response training unveiled BY MATT GETTS mgetts@kpcmedia.com

KENDALLVILLE — Four minutes and 37 seconds. That’s how long it took for a lone gunman to kill 26 people at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Connecticut last December. The staff at East Noble Middle School got a first-hand look at what that scenario could be like in its hallways — and how to deal with it — as the Indiana State Police put on a special training session Friday morning in Kendallville. “It is a very intense thing for our staff to go through,” East Noble Middle School Principal Andy Deming said at the conclusion of the debriefing. There have been no mass shootings in northeastern Indiana schools, but locking a school down for security reasons is not unheard of, including a recent incident of a man carrying a gun through a neighborhood near Fremont Community Schools. The man was not located, but law enforcement acted quickly to secure the safety of the children. Friday’s scenario was designed by Indiana State Police Trooper James Bailey of DeKalb County and Trooper Marc Leatherman of Noble County. An officer portraying a lone gunman entered the building, shooting at students from Impact Institute law enforcement instructor Mark Farren’s class. The gunman then went upstairs. With more of Farren’s students running wildly through the halls,

As East Noble Middle School staff members line the hallway to watch, Noble County Sheriff’s Department Deputy Todd Webber and Indiana State

Kendallville Police Department Cpl. Doug Davis entered the building as the first responding officer. Sticking true to his training, Davis ignored the screams and injured students and continued to pursue the shooter before he could do more damage. Indiana State Police Sgt. Dan Mawhorr pointed out that the first officers to arrive at the scene cannot afford to concern themselves with injured people. “That’s our primary function — to find that threat and eliminate it,” Mawhorr said. Friday was the first time all three facets of the state police training program were used in the northeastern Indiana district

in unison: a PowerPoint presentation, a live, active-shooter scenario and a debriefing where staff members could ask questions afterward. Mawhorr discussed with the staff how law enforcement’s approach has changed since the Columbine school shooting in Colorado. Prior to that time, officers set up a perimeter and waited for a SWAT team to arrive. Columbine taught police that there was no time to wait for a SWAT team to assemble. It was then thought that a small team of perhaps three or four officers would enter the building first. Now, police are taught that the first officer on the scene is to deal with the situation

immediately. Mawhorr said there also has been an evolution in thinking regarding what potential victims should do. Instead of being instructed to wait for help to arrive, staff members were taught Friday a more proactive approach: They should run to safety if they can, hide if they can’t and be prepared to fight if they must. “It sucks we even have to have this conversation,” Mawhorr told the assembled teachers and administrators, “but this is the world we live in now.” Mawhorr said each teacher should have items that potentially could be used as weapons. He gave the example of ISP District commander Lt. Tony Casto’s wife, who has decorated

bricks in her classroom — bricks that could potentially be thrown at an intruder. “Think outside the box,” Mawhorr said. “Think about what you can do to fortify your room.” It was a sentiment echoed by ISP Trooper and SWAT team member Chris McCreery of Kendallville. McCreery and Trooper Shaun Armes developed the program taught Friday. “Don’t just lock you door,” McCreery told the assembly. “Find something to barricade it. We are talking life and death. You can set the stage. Being prepared is our responsibility.” Preparedness was stressed over and over again, and so was buying time for police to arrive.

Casto said that at Sandy Hook, a human life was taken every 10 seconds. Making it more difficult for an attacker to get into a room could save lives. “Make a bad guy work to get to you,” Casto said. “Buy time,” Mawhorr said. “Go to your lockdown procedures.” Even locking a classroom door could deter someone. “The path of least resistance is usually what these guys go for,” Mawhorr said. “You have a fighting chance. We need time.” Mawhorr encouraged school staff members to maintain a constant level of awareness of their surroundings and to act decisively. Deming said one of the big questions he gets from staff members is how police will respond to such a scenario. Friday, they got a first-hand look. That kind of real-life detail made the training sobering for teachers who lined the hallways, watching it all unfold. “It’s troubling understanding this is our world now,” teacher Bill Cain said. “I thought it was very informative. It’s always better to prepare for the worst and hope it never happens.” Armes came up with the genesis of the program while doing advanced instructor coursework. McCreery was more than happy to assist in putting together the formal presentation that was displayed in its entirety for the first time Friday in Kendallville. “I was honored to be asked to do it,” McCreery said. “I’ve got a 6-year-old and a 4-year-old ready for school age. I was happy to take on this role.”

Board awards contracts for pollution control work Christmas parade route approved for Nov. 26 BY AARON ORGAN aorgan@kpcmedia.com

AUBURN — The city’s Board of Public Works and Safety on Thursday awarded a western Indiana company a contract to clean the city’s water pollution control department polishing ponds, where E. coli levels have spiked. The city will pay Fowler-based Wealing Brothers LLC $33,500 to clean the ponds, a job that has not been done in 15 years, according to Mayor Norm Yoder. Testing in the pools has shown sporadic E. coli spikes, Yoder reported. Sludge recovered from the ponds will be used on nearby farmland, utility superintendent David Lochner explained. In other business

Thursday, the board heard that local company Pyramid Excavating will perform the previously approved job to fix a combined-sewer-overflow problem at the city’s wastewater treatment plant. Earlier this month, the board gave approval to the city’s engineering department and Yoder to contract out a job to replace a stretch of small pipe that restricts the plant’s incoming flow with a larger pipe. Auburn Gear, which owns the property where the small pipe lies, will share the cost of the project, which includes disposal of contaminated soil. Pyramid will perform the job for $19,786, the board heard. The board also: • granted approval

Report: Global warming worst ever BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Manmade global warming is rapidly transforming the planet at rates that are unprecedented in human history, from melting Arctic sea ice to heating the land and seas and contributing to extreme weather events, concluded a new landmark climate report from the United Nations on Friday. The study, the fifth major assessment from the U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), projects a bleak future of rising sea levels, more intense and frequent heat waves, destructive droughts and floods, as well as more acidic oceans that will be less capable of supporting marine life. The report serves as yet another warning that without dramatic and rapid cuts in emissions of global greenhouse gas emissions, primarily emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), the consequences of climate change could be disastrous in many parts of the world. “Climate change challenges the two primary resources of humans and ecosystems — land and water. In short, it threatens our planet, our only home,” said Thomas Stocker, a climate scientist at the University of Bern in Switzerland and co-lead author of the IPCC’s Working Group

unfeasible. Friday’s study said that to stay below 3.6°F, global carbon emissions would have to remain below 1 trillion metric tons. According to Stocker, 54 percent of that carbon budget has already been emitted. If global warming continues unabated, the consequences are grave, from rising sea levels to extensive melting of the polar ice sheets.

a government of more than 2.1 million civilian employees scrambled on Friday to update its plans determining who would stay and who would go home, what would get done and what would have to wait. The equation was complicated by the complexity of federal budget rules; some pots of money would be caught up in a shutdown and some wouldn’t. Ironically, a shutdown would have virtually no impact on President Barack Obama’s health care law — the program at the heart of his showdown with House Republicans. The program that detractors dubbed “Obamacare” is set to roll out its individual insurance plans on Tuesday, government shutdown or no, and people hoping to sign up on that first day shouldn’t be affected. Other work expected to continue no matter how the political fight goes: • Prison guards, federal law officers and Border Patrol agents will be at their posts. • Air traffic controllers and airport security screeners will keep airports open. • The military’s 1.4 million active-duty personnel will stay on duty. • Social Security payments will still go out. Doctors will see Medicare and Medicaid patients. Food stamp dollars should continue to flow.

Farmers in court over listeria deaths

Hite Funeral Home

WASHINGTON (AP) — If the government “shuts down” next Tuesday, your mail will still come. Doctors will see Medicare patients. NASA will keep talking to the astronauts circling Earth on the Space Station. In fact, the majority of government will remain on the job. The bad news would hit random Americans first: vacationers hoping to take in Mount Rushmore or a Smithsonian museum. Homebuyers seeking government-backed mortgages. Travelers who want new passports, quickly. Perhaps on the bright side — for some — tax audits would probably be suspended. Troubles would spread the longer a shutdown lasted. A prolonged furlough of more than one-third of civilian federal workers could mean delays in processing applications for new Social Security and Medicare benefits. Lost profits for businesses that sell goods or services to the government. Problems for airlines and some hotels and restaurants that rely on tourism near national parks. Longer waits for kids seeking delinquent child support. And, of course, a shutdown would mean no paychecks for an estimated 800,000 furloughed workers. They might get paid later for the missed days but couldn’t count on that. The deadline nearing,

required hospitalization. The criminal prosecution “sends the message that absolute care must be taken to ensure that deadly pathogens do not enter our food supply chain,” the FDA said in a statement Friday. Criminal charges are rare in food-borne illnesses, but the FDA under President Barack Obama has been more aggressive in pursuing farmers and food processors for alleged lapses, said Michael Doyle, director of University of Georgia’s Center for Food Safety. “I think the FDA is sending a strong message that the produce industry is going to have to raise the bar to ensure the safety of the, basically, ready-to-consume foods,” he said.

DENVER (AP) — Criminal charges against two cantaloupe farmers over a deadly food-borne illness send an emphatic message to fruit and vegetable growers to crack down on safety, federal regulators said Friday. Colorado farmers Eric and Ryan Jensen appeared in shackles in a Denver federal court this week and pleaded not guilty to charges of introducing adulterated food into interstate commerce. The federal Food and Drug Administration has said conditions at Jensen Farms in southeast Colorado led to a 2011 listeria outbreak that killed 33 people. Officials said people in 28 states ate the contaminated fruit, and 147

Hospital guild makes donation to DeKalb Health AUBURN â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Generous donations by the DeKalb Memorial Hospital Auxiliary Guild recently funded significant hospital-related projects, a news release from DeKalb Health said. Funds initially were pledged at the Guildâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s meeting in June 2012. In March 2013, the Guild reimbursed DeKalb Health for the amount spent on new televisions for the hospitalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Family Birthplace department. On Sept. 19, 2013, a $23,000 reimbursement check for improvements made to DeKalb Healthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s outpatient specialty clinic was presented to Matt Lehn, vice president of physician services at DeKalb Health.

The specialty clinic has been in operation for more than three decades and currently serves approximately 1,500 patients per month. Located in the medical office building adjacent to the hospital, the clinic provides patients local accessibility to more than 30 specialty medical groups from the Fort Wayne area and northeast Indiana. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Enabling our patients to receive consultations and follow-up care without having to travel is a significant service that our community has come to rely heavily upon,â&#x20AC;? said Julie Buss, specialty clinic manager. Bussâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; vision for the clinicâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s remodel included changing the general layout

and design to improve accessibility, enhance patient flow and create open spaces. The three-month construction project, which began in November 2012, was completed by DeKalb Healthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in-house environmental services team led by Jerry Singleton, director, and Greg Myers, assistant director. The clinic remained operational during the construction. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is exactly the type of project we like to make happen, as it aligns perfectly with our mission to help the hospital fund projects for continuous improvement,â&#x20AC;? said Jan Kistler, guild president. The DeKalb Memorial Hospital Auxiliary Guild

consists of 75 men and women who volunteer their time and talent in various roles. Since the hospitalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s opening in 1964, the organization has funded more than $460,000 toward hospital projects and equipment purchases. Additionally, the Guild has awarded scholarships and student loans to students pursuing an education in a healthcare-related field and welcomed each newborn with a small gift and a handmade hat. Guild fund-raising efforts include the operation of the Curiosity Shop thrift store in Auburn, the hospital gift shop, the sale of fresh popcorn at the hospital and various sponsored vendor sales.

CORUNNA â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A Waterloo man was injured and faces possible criminal charges after a one-vehicle crash Thursday evening on S.R. 327, south of C.R. 34, police said. Timothy E. Anderson, 26, complained of chest pain after the crash, said a news release from the DeKalb County Sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Department. DeKalb County EMS took him to Parkview Regional Medical Center for treatment. Police said Anderson was driving a 1994 Ford Ranger pickup southbound on S.R. 327. At approximately 7:40 p.m., the Ranger went off the road and into a ditch on the south side of the road, traveling several feet before hitting a NIPSCO utility pole head-on. The truck was a total loss. The news release said Anderson was found to be intoxicated, and charges are pending. The DeKalb County Sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Department was assisted by Corunna Fire Rescue, DeKalb EMS and NIPSCO.

AUBURN â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Police will charge six people in connection with a drug investigation early Thursday morning, Auburn Police Chief Martin D.

IRAN: Last direct conversation took place in 1979 Rouhani has repeatedly stressed that he has “full authority” in his outreach to the U.S., a reference to the apparent backing by Iran’s ultimate decisionmaker: Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Such support would give Rouhani a political mandate that could extend beyond the nuclear issue to possible broader efforts at ending the long estrangement between Washington and Tehran. It remains unclear, however, whether obstacles will be raised by Iran’s hard-line forces such the powerful Revolutionary Guard, which had warned Rouhani about moving too fast with his overtures with the West. Friday’s telephone call — Obama at the White House,

Rouhani in a limousine on the way to the airport after diplomatic meetings at the United Nations — marked perhaps the most hopeful steps toward reconciliation in decades. The last direct conversation between the leaders of the two countries was in 1979 before the Iranian Revolution toppled the pro-U.S. shah and brought Islamic militants to power. Obama said the long break “underscores the deep mistrust between our countries, but it also indicates the prospect of moving beyond that difficult history.” At issue most directly at present are suspicions outlined in reports from the U.N.’s International Atomic Energy Agency that Iran has worked secretly on trying to develop nuclear

weapons. Tehran says it isn’t interested in atomic arms and only wants to develop nuclear technology for peaceful use. The White House had reached out to Tehran earlier this month to offer a meeting on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly on Monday or Tuesday, but Rouhani declined at the time. But the U.S. and five negotiating partners emerged from a meeting with Iran Thursday declaring that a “window of opportunity has opened” to peacefully settle the nuclear standoff. The White House said Iranian officials reached out Friday and indicated Rouhani would like to speak to Obama before leaving New York, and Obama’s aides quickly arranged the call.

SOUTH BEND (AP) — Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops says revenge won’t be a factor when his 14th-ranked Sooners face No. 22 Notre Dame on Saturday. Apparently, though, not all his players got the memo. At least a few Sooners say payback for a 30-13 loss last season, when the Irish scored 17 points in the final 6 minutes to turn a close game into a blowout to help Notre Dame get to the BCS title game, will be on their minds when the teams meet. “I think revenge kind of goes into it,” fullback Trey Millard. “It’s kind of just more so showing them that we can play just as good as them,” linebacker Corey Nelson said. It might sound odd to hear the Sooners (3-0), who have had more success in recent years than the Irish (3-1), are the ones talking about having something to prove. Keep in mind, though, Notre Dame has dominated the Sooners, winning nine of the 10 games between two of college football’s most successful programs. The Irish have won under almost every circumstance. The Sooners have lost when

Notre Dame quarterback Tommy Rees throws against Michigan State last Saturday. The Irish face Oklahoma today.

both teams finished 5-5 (1961), when the two finished with a combined 18-1-2 record in 1953, when Oklahoma was good at 8-3

and Notre Dame was mediocre at 5-5 (1962) — even when the Sooners had won consecutive national championships and were

Dean’s pass was tipped at the line of scrimmage, and Lakeland’s Casper made a diving interception at his 5-yard line to snuff the drive. The Lakers went 95 yards in just under four minutes, with Raatz scoring from 26 yards out with 1:33 to play. Raatz also scored the game’s first points with 1:51 left in the first, capping an 11-play, 72-yard drive with a 6-yard run. That was all the scoring through the first half. Eastside’s Terry Nickolson recovered a fumble to end one Lakeland possession, and Olivares missed a 34-yard field goal to the right late in the half. Eastside nearly scored late in the half, as Dean hit a streaking Lockhart for 46 yards to the Lakeland 36, and ran 32 yards himself as the halftime horn sounded, only to be tripped up at the 4.

WOODBURN — Woodlan running back Jaylin Bennett’s 200-yard rushing performance against Garrett a season ago had lasting implications, as it turned out. This year, the Railroaders came prepared for the 6-foot, 5-inch back Friday night, stacking the box in an attempt to limit the senior to limit his production. Not only did it not work as Garrett coach Chris DePew hoped it would, the plan forced Warriors coach Sherwood Haydock to open his offensive play book. The outcome: Bennett rushed 24 times for 191 yards and three touchdowns and slot receiver Greg White took advantage of the opportunity and caught a pair of touchdown passes as Woodlan racked up 439 yards of total offense in a 43-0 rout of Garrett that snapped what was a six-game winning streak for the Railroaders over the Warriors. Woodlan advances to 4-2 (2-1 ACAC), while Garrett falls to 3-3 (1-2 ACAC). “Last year we stayed in that one power set against them and Jaylin had 240-some yards against them, and they really worked on stopping that, so we had to adjust it and go a little more outside,” said Haydock. DePew said he committed more defenders to stopping the run, which made his defense susceptible to big pass plays that Woodlan took advantage of. “We knew the risks in that,” said DePew. The game began with Woodlan striking quickly, when quarterback Corbin Smith hit a streaking Greg White with a pass across the middle that White took 55 yards for a touchdown on the Warriors’ fourth play from scrimmage.

LAGRANGE — Three Lakeland running backs ran for more than 100 yards and another had nearly 90 yards, but the Lakers needed a big defensive stop midway through the fourth quarter to turn aside upset-minded Eastside, 28-14 at LaGrange Friday. The Lakers improved to 6-0 overall and in Northeast Corner Conference play. The Blazers fell to 1-5 overall and 0-5 in NECC play. Lakeland rolled up 486 yards of offense, all but 10 of it on the ground. Sophomore fullback Josh Collyer carried 18 times for 133 yards and one score. Senior slotback Taylor Raatz gained 119 yards on 11 attempts for three touchdowns. Senior fullback Thomas Roebel added 107 yards on 16 carries. For good measure, senior slotback Kyle Casper

added 85 yards. Despite Lakeland owning more than a 200-yard advantage in total offense, the score was tied at 14 heading into the fourth quarter. That’s when the Lakers found a little something extra. Lakeland ground out three first downs in the final three minutes of the third, and gained another early in the fourth before Raatz scored from 8 yards out with 9:26 to play. Marco Olivares’ extra-point kick made it 21-14 Lakers. The Blazers, who showed second-half explosiveness on offense after gaining just two first downs in the first half, immediately threatened. Freshman quarterback Conner Dove threw a deep ball to senior Ty Lockhart for 32 yards to the Lakeland 26. Junior P.J. Dean completed a short pass to Jesse Eck for another first down, this time to the Lakeland 11. Two plays later, however,

on an NCAA-record 47-game winning streak (1957). The only time the Sooners won was during its 1956 national championship season, when Oklahoma traveled to South Bend and beat an Irish team that finished 2-8 by a score of 40-0 in what remains the most lopsided home loss in Notre Dame Stadium history. Stoops said history will have no bearing on Saturday’s game. “I can’t do anything for everybody else. I’d kind of like to win for our team and for us,” Stoops said. The victory last season at Oklahoma did more than make doubters believe in Notre Dame. It gave the Irish confidence. “On offense, defense and special teams I think that was our best game,” cornerback Bennett Jackson said. “It was a huge kick for us.” Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly said the Irish believe they can do it again. “They know that they can beat Oklahoma, but they know they’re going to have to play mistake free,” Kelly said.

Kyle Busch takes aim on Kenseth for points lead DOVER, Del. (AP) — Kyle Busch would take a winless Chase if it pays off with a championship. At 28, Busch is on a mission to win the Cup championship that would truly stamp him as one of the sport’s greats. He already has a resume few in the garage can match. Busch wins races in all three national NASCAR series like no other driver, including a whopping 18 this season. But all those checkered flags haven’t helped him win a championship. Busch has finished higher than 10th only once in the last five seasons and he’s never been better than fifth (2007) in the final standings. He lost out to Jeff Gordon for the final Chase spot

last season at Richmond. Busch has put those past disappointments behind him with a sizzling start to this season’s Chase for the Sprint Cup championship. Busch is 2 for 2 in runner-up finishes at Chicagoland in the opener and last week at New Hampshire. While Busch said he doesn’t pay attention to the standings, he knows his pair of seconds is good enough to put him in second place. Problem is, the driver in front of him hasn’t been in the mood to lose. Joe Gibbs Racing teammate Matt Kenseth leads the standings after storming his way to the Chase lead with wins the last two

weeks to boost his series-best total to seven. Busch and five-time champion Jimmie Johnson are the only drivers truly threatening Kenseth for the lead as the Chase shifts to Dover for Sunday’s race. Kenseth holds a 14-point lead over Busch and an 18-point edge over Johnson. While certainly not out of it with eight races remaining, Carl Edwards is 36 points back of Kenseth in fourth. Busch is proud he can be part of the 1-2 combination for JGR and Toyota. He just wouldn’t mind flipping the order. “It may take a couple of wins in this deal to win it,” Busch said Friday. “I’ve also felt all along that if you finish second every

Chase race, then you could have a really good shot at winning a championship that way. I would certainly take that over a Chase win and then following that up with a DNF.” Busch has four Cup victories this season, including two in the last seven. Has last failure to finish came in May at Charlotte. Tony Stewart in 2005 is the only driver to win a championship without winning a Chase race. JGR, with Busch, in the past has dominated the regular season, but dropped off considerably once the Chase began. Now they’ve carried their success into the Chase and are a credible 1-2 threat to give Toyota its first Sprint Cup title.

Reds fall to Pirates, trail to host wild card CINCINNATI (AP) — One of Homer Bailey’s greatest moments came a year ago at PNC Park. He doesn’t want to have to go back there again this season. The Cincinnati Reds will have to win their last two games of the season to avoid that return trip. Marlon Byrd had three hits and Pedro Alvarez hit a two-run homer high off the batter’s eye on Friday night, leading the Pittsburgh Pirates over the Reds 4-1 in a series that will decide the NL wild-card game host. Both teams clinched postseason berths this week. Whoever wins the three-game series would be assured of hosting the one-game playoff on Tuesday night. Needing a solid game, Bailey (11-12) couldn’t control his pitches. “I was all over the place,” Bailey said. “Four walks, two hit batters -terrible timing to have a bad game.” Byrd and Alvarez provided all of the Pirates’ runs off Bailey (11-12), who is struggling with his control

“I really feel like Matt and the relationship that he and his crew chief have and what they have been able to bring to the table has helped elevate Joe Gibbs to the next level,” Johnson said. “The experience that Matt brings in, the smarts, the knowledge, the consistent driving that is a nice kind of rock within that organization that without a doubt has helped them.” Busch is nipping at Kenseth and said the 20 “lucked into one” at Chicagoland. He blamed a poor restart for costing him at New Hampshire. Does Busch finally have the team that can put it all together and win the Cup? “We want,” Busch said. “We need to.”

Red Wings beat Maple Leafs 5-2 in preseason DETROIT (AP) — Henrik Zetterberg, Daniel Alfredsson and Johan Franzen each had a goal and an assist, helping the Detroit Red Wings beat the Toronto Maple Leafs 5-2 on Friday night in a preseason game. Joakim Andersson and Luke Glendening also scored for Detroit. Pavel Datsyuk had two assists and Jimmy Howard made 17 saves.

completing a 50-game suspension, going 1 for 4 with an RBI in the Detroit Tigers’ 3-2 loss to the Miami Marlins. “I felt pretty good,” Peralta said. “I saw the ball well, the breaking ball and everything. I made good contact.” Peralta, who was suspended for his involvement in the Florida-based Biogenesis performance-enhancing lab, started in left field and had his first chance on Giancarlo Stanton’s bases-loaded double in the third inning that gave Miami a 3-0 lead. The Marlins

He has walked a seasonhigh four batters in each of his last three games. “I think he’s trying really hard, and trying really hard can be counterproductive,” manager Dusty Baker said. “We’ve got to get him on track for his next start.” A.J. Burnett (10-11) handled the Reds’ slumping lineup, allowing five hits overall in eight innings. Jason Grilli gave up a hit in the ninth while getting his 33rd save in 35 chances.

After Lakeland came up empty on another field goal try on its first possession of the third, Eastside did find the end zone, as Dean faked a pass and tucked the ball away untouched for a 49-yard run with 5:49 left in the third. Lakeland needed exactly one minute to respond, as big runs by Casper and Collyer preceded the latter’s 4-yard TD run at 4:45. Eastside answered back in 1:21.

Garrett could not counter the score, despite long drives on each of its first two series that advanced into the Woodlan territory then the red zone. A 13-play drive was collapsed by a missed field goal and the Railroaders punted away their three other possessions of the half. The Warriors, though, also struggled to find the end zone in the first half after the touchdown. Their offense punted and missed a pair of field goals, one that sailed wide and the other that was blocked to end the half. That was until late in the half, though,

when, benefitting from a short field to work with, 278-pound fullback Deandre Woods punched in a touchdown run from inches. Woodlan went into the half with a 14-0 lead. The Warriors broke into the second half in a hurry, scoring early then often. On a first down play from its own 30-yard line, Woodlan’s Jaylin Bennett tapped around a block and sped 70 yards for a touchdown two minutes into the second half. Nine seconds later, with Garrett driven back along its own goal line, Warriors defensive tackle Chandler Alexander hit

the Railroaders ballcarrier in the end zone for a safety. Just more than a minute later, Bennett scored from a yard out for Woodlan to push the score to 30-0, and just more than three minutes after that, the 6-foot, 5-inch back scored again from 5 yards out to give the Warriors a 36-0 lead. Midway through the fourth quarter, Smith hit White with a pass the speedy slot receiver took 47 yards for a touchdown. White caught three balls for 143 yards and two scores, and rushed five times for 38 yards. DePew said it wasn’t so much Haydock’s schemes that frustrated his defense, but rather Woodlan’s size and Garrett’s struggles matching up. “We just couldn’t keep up with them after a while,” said DePew. “I hate to admit it. I’d rather just think we were good enough to play and schematically we made a mistake or two, but the truth was we just got wore down. “They put a lot of pounds on the field. They have the ability to put a lot more heavy people on the field than we do.” Garrett quarterback Noah Follett, who played efficiently, struggled to find time to pass and found covered receivers when he had time. Follett finished 9-of-14 passing for 93 yards and an interception. Senior running back Gabe Gunion rushed 12 times for 47 yards for the Railroaders. Receiver Ryan VandeZande caught four balls for 43 yards. “About the only thing we can do is get back to work tomorrow,” said DePew. “The score was the score.”

Colts’ Richardson could be more involved vs. Jags JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Trent Richardson scored on his first carry with the Indianapolis Colts, a successful debut that came after just two practices with his new team. Now, after a week of work, he’s facing the perfect defense to help make a big day happen. The Jaguars (0-3) rank last in the NFL in rushing defense, giving up 168 yards a game. It could make for a long afternoon against the Colts (2-1), who suddenly have one of the top backfield tandems in the league with veteran Ahmad Bradshaw and the newly acquired Richardson. “Ahmad Bradshaw took a big load off of me,” Richardson said. “Andrew Luck, Reggie Wayne, the offensive line, it’s a big load being taken off of me. When you don’t have to play from behind, you can really get the touches that you really want. We’ve got a two-headed monster. It’s crazy.” The Colts gave up a first-round draft pick in 2014 for the 5-foot-9, 225-pound Richardson, who provided coach Chuck Pagano a bulky back for his power-running scheme. “This guy’s got a rare skill set and has a chance to be a great, great runner,” Pagano said. Richardson ran 13 times for 35 yards in last week’s 27-7 win at San Francisco. He goes against a less-formidable front Sunday in Jacksonville, which

was gouged on the ground by Oakland (226 yards) and Seattle (156 yards). “It’s not very good right now,” Jaguars linebacker Paul Posluszny said about his team’s run defense. “This is going to be a huge challenge for us. If we want to be any type of team, we have to see vast improvement in that area.” The Jaguars have used more eight-man fronts and single-high safeties in hopes of slowing down opposing running games. But with two new defensive tackles, a new linebacker and as many as three rookies in the secondary, they haven’t all been on the same page early in the season. “We have to be very, very disciplined in how we fit the run,” Posluszny said. “If one guy is wrong, there’s a crease and that’s where the ball goes.” As the Colts try to get Richardson more involved, and the Jaguars try to avoid their third 0-4 start in franchise history, here are five things to keep in mind: RECEIVER WOES: The Jaguars might have to call up two receivers from the practice squad for Sunday’s game. Starter Justin Blackmon is suspended for one more game, backup Mike Brown has a broken bone in his back, and newcomer Stephen Burton is in the concussion program after feeling symptoms Wednesday. Those issues leave Jacksonville

with two healthy receivers on the 53-man roster: Cecil Shorts III and rookie Ace Sanders. That could mean a promotion for practice-squad receivers Jeremy Ebert and/or Tobais Palmer. POWER PLAY: The Colts overwhelmed San Francisco with an inside running game. Can they do it again in Jacksonville? Bradshaw, who took over the starting job when Vick Ballard was lost with a season-ending knee injury, looked like his old self, then missed practice Wednesday and Thursday with a neck injury. The Colts hope he’ll be able to play Sunday. If so, he’ll probably start again

ahead of Richardson, who is still scrambling to learn Indy’s playbook. But if both play and defenses creep up to the line of scrimmage, that could open it up for Luck and the deep passing game. Jacksonville’s defense was torched for 11 explosive plays at Seattle. ROOKIE SAFETIES: The Jaguars likely will start two rookies at safety: Johnathan Cyprien and Josh Evans. Evans, a sixth-round pick from Florida, is filling in for veteran Dwight Lowery (concussion), who missed some practice and was wearing sunglasses in the locker room one day. Evans played significantly at Seattle, but also made crucial mistakes in the 45-17 loss. “It definitely was a learning experience,” Evans said. “I was put in the fire, and it definitely made me better. I’m glad it happened early in the season rather than later.” COVER CORNER: The Colts spent last week blanketing San Francisco’s receivers the way Pagano wants. But if they need any reminders of how things can go wrong, all they have to do is look at a clip from last year’s September game — specifically the 80-yard TD pass from Blaine Gabbert to Shorts with 45 seconds to go. It’s one of the few plays from 2012 the Colts would like to have back. They upgraded the secondary through free agency and now get another shot at slowing down Shorts.

WEST LAFAYETTE â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Soybean producers can easily get an idea of the yield potential of their crops with a Purdue Extension soybean specialistâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s calculation method. Soybean yield potential is built on many factors, including the genetics selected, management decisions during the season and the weather. Yield components of soybeans are pods, seed size and number of seeds per pod. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Individual plant production varies, and every field will vary based on pests, soils, fertility and other factors,â&#x20AC;? said Shaun Casteel. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve simplified the process of estimating soybean yields so that producers can scout multiple areas quickly while maintaining representative estimates.â&#x20AC;? Casteelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s system is based on estimated yield in one ten-thousandth of an acre. The basic formula involves multiplying the number of pods by the number of seeds per pod, then dividing that result by the seed size factor. That calculation will show the estimated bushels per acre. To calculate, producers first need to count the number of pods in one ten-thousandth of an acre, an area determined by a 21-inch length of a row of plants and how far apart the rows were planted. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Nearly 90 percent of our Indiana soybean acres are planted in 30-, 15- or 7.5-inch rows, so just remember that each count needs to be 21 inches long,â&#x20AC;? Casteel said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You will count the number of pods in one row for 30-inch width, two rows for 15-inch and four rows for 7.5-inch.â&#x20AC;? Producers should count the number of pods that are

Nearly 90 percent of Indiana soybean acres are planted in 30-, 15- or 7.5-inch rows, so producers need to remember

at stage R5 or higher â&#x20AC;&#x201D; when they can see seeds. Next, they must determine the number of seeds per pod. Casteel said using the average of 2.5 seeds per pod is best because there can be a range of 1-4 seeds per pod. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This value is conservative since we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know exactly how the rest of the season will finish,â&#x20AC;? Casteel said. Changing this one value can increase or decrease yield estimates. The third step is to calculate seed size factor. Casteel said the starting point is seed size factor 18, equaling about 3,000 seeds per pound. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you expect larger seeds from late-season rains, you would divide by a lower seed size factor such as 15, which equals about 2,500

that each count needs to be 21 inches long. For most Indiana fields, the seed size factor will be between 18 and 21.

seeds per pound,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If the field has late-season stress, such as a lack of water, you would divide by a higher seed size factor like 21, or 3,500 seeds per pound.â&#x20AC;? For most Indiana fields in 2013, the seed size factor will be between 18 and 21, Casteel said. The three values â&#x20AC;&#x201D; number of pods in stage R5 or higher, number of seeds per pod and seed size factor â&#x20AC;&#x201D; go into Casteelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s equation. For example, 250 pods times 2.5 seeds per pod divided by a seed size factor 15 equals 41.7 bushels per acre. Fair soybean growth with limited pod retention but with good late-season moisture will result in a fair crop. Although producers can start estimating yields

as soybeans enter the R5 stage, the estimates will be more accurate as soybeans develop and enter R6, or full seed. If soybeans are just coming into R6, Casteel said the yield potential still depends on pod retention and seed size. The weather is an important contributor to yield potential, and dry conditions over the past 4-5 weeks have lowered yield potential in some fields. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Reductions in excessive heat and the return of rain helped yield potentials more in seed size than pod retention assuming the soybeans are into R6 and beginning to drop leaves,â&#x20AC;? Casteel said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If fields are green, soybean yield potentials could improve. If fields are losing foliage, yield gains will be very limited.â&#x20AC;?

Flooding, mud could end up improving Colorado soil JOHNSTOWN, Colo. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Surging waters in Colorado swept away barns, silos and fences and left houses covered in mud in this northern agricultural town. The flood waters were so powerful they uprooted irrigation pipes and spread them around the fields here, leaving lakes next to which cattle now graze. They also brought instant relief to drought-hardened areas, with the promise of moisture restored in deep soils and the possibility of reservoirs refilling to help farmers well into next year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There is a silver lining if we look down the road,â&#x20AC;? said Ron Carleton, the deputy commissioner of agriculture for the state. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We just have to get past these near-term impacts.â&#x20AC;? The damage to Coloradoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s multibillion agriculture industry â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s third-largest at $8.5 billion last year â&#x20AC;&#x201D; is vast: Aerial footage shows broad swaths of inundated farmland. Rows of crops up and down the South Platte River were submerged, everything from corn, lettuce, onions and soybeans. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen these rivers come up before. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never seen it like this,â&#x20AC;? said Ron Kline Jr., whose family runs Kline Farms in the region.

Carleton, who has been touring the flooded areas, said officials wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a full picture of the damage until water recedes. However, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve begun to identify potential areas of concern. The corn harvest had just begun, and there could be losses there, as well as in produce farms in Weld County, Carleton said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Just from driving around you see land underwater. That tells you a lot right there. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s land thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s certainly not producing right now,â&#x20AC;? he said. On Klineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s farm, the waters pushed a shed and the equipment inside down a road. A semi-truck and trailer was turned 90 degrees. A 700-gallon tank of engine oil is nowhere to be found. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s somewhere between here and Nebraska,â&#x20AC;? said Kline, who farms corn, wheat and alfalfa. Troy Seaworth, whose family owns Seaworth Farms in Wellington, on the northern edge of the flooding, is one of the farmers who will be looking to see how much water was captured in reservoirs. It will take time for that to become evident. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If we capture this year for next year, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a good thing â&#x20AC;&#x201D; thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great thing,â&#x20AC;? he said. Seaworth,

who plants sugar beets, wheat, and corn, said his farm was for the most part spared. But the storms have forced him to delay corn silage harvest and the cutting of alfalfa. Still, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not expecting major economic losses. Delaying harvest of crops could mean reduced quality in some cases because theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be past maturity, said Keith Maxey, the director of Weld Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s extension office for Colorado State University. Maxey said damaged roads will also have a big effect for farmers and ranchers. With transportation routes impaired, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to take them longer to move their products, adding fuel and labor costs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Rather than just a five-minute trip, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be 30 minutes,â&#x20AC;? he said. Weld County commissioners agree, and say theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re already looking at how to get temporary roads pending permanent fixes. Local government officials say itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s too early to get an assessment of how much the damage will cost. While some counties have not yet estimated how much land was damaged, Weld County has said they believe the number to be more than 2,300 parcels of agricultural land.

WEST LAFAYETTE â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Agribusiness professionals will better understand what drives loyalty and buying decisions of commercial producers by attending the National Conference for Agribusiness Nov. 4-5 at Purdue University. Guest speakers will discuss information from the Large Commercial Producer Project, a nationwide survey of the buying behaviors of commercial farmers and ranchers. The Purdue Center for Food and Agricultural Business conducts the survey every five years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The agenda is packed with interesting topics and sessions built around understanding large commercial agricultural producersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; strategies, buying behaviors, information preferences and loyalty,â&#x20AC;? said Michael Gunderson, associate professor and associate director of research at the Center for Food and Agricultural Business, the

conference organizer. The conference will examine several key topics from the survey data, including insights to producersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; loyalty to brands and retailers, understanding what is critical to the success of their operations, time spent on management, and the importance of dealers and sales staff in buying decisions. About 300 people are expected to attend the conference, which would be of interest to managers, executives, specialists and analysts from such organizations as agricultural retailers, farm equipment manufacturers and dealers, retail seed company and distributors, crop protection companies, animal health and nutrition companies, and food product manufacturers and processors. The cost to attend is $1,295. Continuing education credit and Certified Crop Adviser credit is available. For more information, call the center at 765-494-4247.

Innovation or stagnation Invent something and the first thing that goes through some people’s minds — especially politicians’ minds — is what might go wrong. 3D printers now allow you to mold objects right in your living room, using patterns you find online. It’s a revolutionary invention that will save time, reduce shipping costs and be kind to the earth. But what critics see is: guns! People will print guns at home! Well, sure. On TV, Rachel Maddow sneered about “a well-armed anarchist utopia, where fends for JOHN everybody themselves with stupidplastic guns. … It’s STOSSEL looking a political effort to try to do away with government.” Do away with government? If only we could do away with some! Big-government politicians and their cheerleaders in the media focus on threats posed by innovation because they fear loss of control. They move to ban things. In Texas, Cody Wilson used a 3D printer to make a plastic gun. He called it “the Liberator” and posted its specs on the Internet. The State Department then ordered him to take the specs Overwhelmingly, down. He innovation brings us did. But by then, 100,000 good things. people had downloaded it. Wilson takes pride in pointing out how his gun shows that gun “control” is an illusion. Being able to print a gun in your own home will render laws against purchasing guns unenforceable and irrelevant. “I’m your full-service provocateur,” Wilson told Kennedy, my TV show’s correspondent. “Here’s the printed gun. I’m not here to make you feel better about it. I’m here to say, ‘Look, this space is occupied. Deal with it.’” The “Liberator” didn’t work well. It broke before Kennedy could fire a shot. However, printed guns will improve over time. Wilson’s point: “Prohibiting this is no longer effective.” Technological innovation constantly threatens centralized authorities. Now we take the Internet for granted, but when it first became popular, people worried that it would mainly be used by terrorists, child molesters and money-launderers. “Smash the Internet!” said a cover story in the conservative magazine Weekly Standard, illustrated with a sledgehammer smashing a computer screen. Even today, after Google, Facebook, Wikipedia, eBay, Yelp, Craigslist, WebMD, YouTube and more have clearly made our lives better, Luddites in the media fret about problems. “The Internet Is Making Kids Stupid” says PC Magazine. CBS’s Bob Schieffer whines that in the absence of supervising editors, “ignorance travels as rapidly as great ideas.” There’s some truth behind these complaints. The Internet does make some people isolated. It does allow ignorant ideas to spread. But so what? It also creates new forms of human interaction and allows the crowd of users to correct ignorant mistakes. Schieffer is prematurely old, but even hip novelists like Dave Eggers and Jonathan Franzen worry about the Net. Eggers’ latest novel suggests it creates “unnaturally extreme” needs, and a Franzen essay attacks “technoconsumerism.” Comedian Louis CK gets laughs by worrying that cell phones just keep us distracted — but not really happy or sad — until we die. He’d prefer his kids didn’t have them. They are right that any activity can become a time-waster, but to all the fearmongers I say, stop whining! Overwhelmingly, innovation brings us good things. It’s even changed the way Americans find love. A University of Chicago study says 35 percent of new marriages now start online. We don’t think twice about miracles like computer dating or email or the fact that, today, most everyone in the world has access to all the world’s knowledge on a little phone. We take it for granted that we can put a piece of plastic into a wall and cash will come out — and the count is always accurate. Government couldn’t do that. Government can’t even count votes accurately. In a free market, a symphony of desires comes together, and they’re met by people who constantly rack their brains to provide better services and invent solutions to our desires. It’s not a few people desiring guns that I fear. It’s government getting in the way of all those new possibilities.

Letters To The Editor • Community is fortunate to have outstanding hospital To the editor: We went to DeKalb hospital for some routine tests, which revealed that major surgery would be required. During the tests, we found the staff to be very professional, skilled, personal and very caring. We were more than just a number. Many advised us to go to a big hospital in Fort Wayne for surgery, since surely big would do it better. However, our experience led us to choose DeKalb. We couldn’t be happier with our decision. The facility was new and “state of the art.” The entire staff, from world-class doctors and nurses to the maintenance staff, was professional, well trained and personable, but above all, were loving and caring through a

difficult recovery. A town our size is so fortunate to have DeKalb hospital. Hats off to “Best in Class.” Victoria and Risk Thompson III Butler

Thanks for help with blood drive To the editor: I want to thank the Lamb of God Mennonite Church in Butler for the delicious meal they brought in to the Butler American Legion for the American Red Cross Blood Drive. Also, a big thank you goes out to the Crossroads of Zion Church of rural Butler for the homemade cookies. Thanks to all of you who gave of your time to donate blood, and to those that volunteered that day. 39,000 pints are

needed each day. Thanks for doing your part. Ann Prosser, Butler coordinator Butler

What world do you live in? To the editor: A recent Sunday front page. A story about what some call a beauty contest. Peoples’ vanity, arrogance and gaudiness on display. A story on the below-average intelligence that currently runs our government. Or two stories that deal with real life. Two best friends separated, but a person’s kindness helps keep them in touch. Or the violent death of a small child. What world do you live in? Paul L. Holman Ashley

Enjoy our final dances outdoors as autumn sets in The autumnal equinox has once again showered us with the ending of summer and the beginning of harvest rituals. There are those among us who shiver at the thought of the oncoming winter, and those who embrace these winds that blow over our fields and into our homes. I am of the second group. I love the ritual of closing my windows at night and pulling out the quilts and woollen blankets from trunks and closets. I love the once-again smell of autumn foods in the kitchen and pulling out the jeans and sweaters. The slanting of the morning sun and the heavy dew on the fields alert me to the changes that are coming. Each day I check the passage of the sun patterns on my prisms as they gleam across my floors. When I lived on the farm the harvest was plentiful. On the days leading up to the frost we were “food gatherers” placing food in proper places for the lean winter days ahead. Jars were filled, crocks were packed with kraut and the root cellar was full with squash and pumpkins. We braided onions, made cider, cooked down pumpkins and made sure my knitting basket was full of sheep’s wool for the making of hats and mittens for my three boys. Today I have a meager harvest … a few tomatoes in the garden to put up, raspberries to pick, herbs to hang and the last of the summer flowers to keep the summer colors going. I am grateful for our local farmers market where I can bring home bushels of food to store and to preserve a few jars of the bounty. We, who live in this rural area, are fortunate to know the changing of the seasons. Our sweet town is full of life and color thanks to Autumn in Angola and to the sights and sounds of the troops camped out anticipating the Civil War. On this weekend you can chat with Mark Twain,

watch Lincoln come into town, listen to our own groups of musicians and storytellers, or sit under the trees with family and friends sharing food. My kids have great memories of Fall Fest dating back 25 years or so when it was held at Pokagon. For 10 years we all participated in candle making, cider pressing and even hammering out nails on Adam’s forge. Abe tells me LOU ANN it was the favorite event of his childhood. Autumn winds bring HOMANfolks tumbling into this SAYLOR old house as well. Adam shows up on my doorstep for dinner and a few days of salmon fishing with Aaron and the boys. The ritual of fishing in the river and camping nearby is only possible with the turning of the calendar. My door opens to four “warm shower” travelers as they meandered into town on their bicycles this week. Three girls arrive at dusk on Monday evening heading toward New York from California. The candle burns late as we share stories of travel and adventures on the road. On Thursday evening another young man comes into my garden gate with his bicycle. Carl is traveling from Buffalo to San Francisco. By this time of year most of my visitors have already traveled the Sierras and the Rocky Mountains, but he is heading west. “Go south, young man,” is about all I can say to Carl. Philip, of Ocracoke, has also come to visit, although not by bicycle. It is always nice when he graces this old house with his

• stories and his own island adventure tales. His visit is also brief as the ocean winds beckon him back home. But he does stay long enough to share in the goodness of rural America and rituals of autumn. With the house full of guests, supper on the stove and another log on the campfire, it is time to whisper goodbye to our summer. Without dreading the coming of winter, it is time to celebrate the harvest, friendships, the joy of living in small towns, and you, my friends. Open up your windows, air out your blankets, pick the last of your flowers for a bouquet on your windowsill and enjoy the last dance. Hopefully I will see you out and about in town this weekend. Don’t stay home. Come on out and see what joys and celebrations abound among us. “O Autumn, laden with fruit, and stain’d With the blood of grape, pass not, but sit Beneath my shady roof; there thou may’st rest.” — William Blake, 1783 LOU ANN HOMAN-SAYLOR lives in Angola at the White Picket Gardens where you can find her gardening or writing late into the night under the light of her frayed scarlet lamp. She is a storyteller, teacher, writer, actress and a collector of front porch stories.

What Others Say • The Keynesian approach Are we, to borrow a bit of a phrase from Milton Friedman, “all Keynesians now?” Probably not. There are those, like former U.S. Rep. Ron Paul of Texas, who have pointed to their brand of fiscal conservatism and contended that “we are all Austrians now.” It’s a tip of the hat to the school of economics that is more in line with his thinking than the followers of John Maynard Keynes. Keynes argued, among other things, that in the short

run a depressed economy can be stimulated by an infusion of capital by a central bank and/or complementing actions by a central government. This can be seen in practice in the Federal Reserve’s decision last week to spend billions buying bonds in order to keep interests rates low, which makes borrowing money more attractive and, in this time of lackluster economic growth, helps to spur investment. However, the Keynesian express seemed about to end

as word spread before last week that the Fed would begin to slow its buying. … U.S. Stock Exchange investors had been particular nervous, so when the Fed announced that it had met with central bankers who promised to continue loaning if the government would continue to buy bonds, the stock market responded just as Keynes said it would. Investors invested and the Dow Jones Industrial Average set a new record last week. Some of that gain was erased the next day, as investors cashed in their

gains, but for the moment at least the Keynesian approach seemed to work as predicted. Add to this the unexpected rise in the sale of previously owned homes and the arrival of lower-than-expected unemployment reports and it was a pretty heady time on Wall Street. No one expects the Fed to continue to buy bonds at this rate, but the Keynesian approach has given the economy a boost as well as a little more time to recover. That was what Keynes predicted in the first place. The Anniston (Ala.) Star

Teen must prove she is ready for dating DEAR ABBY: I’m a 14-year-old girl who’s having a disagreement with my parents about dating. There’s this guy, “Connor,” who likes me, and I’m very comfortable with him. His older sister and I are good friends. The trouble is, my parents have strict rules against dating and I think it’s unfair. I think I’m mature enough to date, and I know right from wrong. My friends say I’m very mature for my age, and they approve of Connor because he’s friendly and has an outgoing personality. I have tried talking to my parents about this, but I always end up in tears. Can you tell me how I can convince them to give this guy a chance? — GROWN UP AT 14, PRINCE GEORGE, CANADA DEAR GROWN UP: A sure way to show your parents you’re mature enough to date would be to

DEAR ABBY: I’m 13 years old and I recently enrolled in a new school. I have met two boys, “Jake” and “Cory,” and I have been crushing on both of them. I really like Jake for everything, but I’m not sure he likes me back. I like Cory for his looks and popularity, and I’m positive he likes me because he said so. Should I ask Jake to go with me first, and if he says no, rebound to Cory? — CONFUSED DEAR CONFUSED: The school year has just started and it’s a little early to be asking someone to “go” with you. If you take your time — say, wait a month — Jake may find the courage to tell you he likes you, too. If he doesn’t, tell Cory you’re interested in him and see if he still feels the same way about you. (The odds are 50/50.) And who knows? In another month, there might be a third guy.

Blood pressure reading at ankle can explain pain starts only after a person has been exercising his or her legs for a while.

Of course, many different conditions can cause leg pain when we exercise. In particular, injuries to leg muscles or to the hip, knee, ankle or foot can cause exercise pain. Just from your symptoms

•

alone, it can be hard to be sure what is causing leg pain when you exercise. A key test for problems in peripheral arteries is the ankle-brachial index, or ABI. An ABI compares blood pressure readings from the ankle and the brachial artery, which is the major blood vessel in the upper arm. The test is done using a blood pressure cuff and an ultrasound probe. Normally, blood pressure is similar whether it is measured in the legs or in the arms. If blood pressure is lower in the legs, it usually means that fatty buildup inside the leg arteries is interfering with circulation. The doctor will calculate your ABI by taking the highest pressure recorded at your ankle and dividing it by the highest pressure recorded at your arm. The normal range is between 0.90 and 1.30. A result under 0.90 means that blood is

DEAR DOCTOR K: I had some pain in my leg while exercising, and now my doctor wants to do an ankle-brachial index test. How is it done? And what will it tell him? DEAR READER: Atherosclerosis stiffens and clogs our arteries. It attacks the coronary arteries that provide blood to the heart muscle and causes heart attacks. It also attacks the arteries of the brain, causing strokes. Atherosclerosis also often affects the peripheral arteries of the legs. When we exercise our leg muscles, they can reach the point where we’re asking them to work harder than their blood supply allows. When that happens, they scream in pain. The leg pain caused by atherosclerosis is usually felt in the calf, though sometimes it is felt in the thigh. Typically, the pain

show them you’re a responsible person. Do they know when they ask you a question that they’ll get an honest answer with no evasion? Have you shown them that you respect their curfews? Do you do the chores DEAR that are of ABBY expected you without having to be reminded? Jeanne Phillips Is the same true about your homework? If the answer to these questions is yes, then do they KNOW Connor? Do they know his parents? If they do, they might feel more comfortable about your seeing him, IF it’s in a group rather than one-on-one.

having a hard time getting to the legs and feet. The lower the number, the higher the chances of leg pain while exercising or of limb-threatening low blood flow. On the other end, an ABI above 1.30 is usually a sign of stiff, calcium-encrusted arteries. These often occur in people with diabetes or chronic kidney disease. The ABI also offers information about your general cardiovascular health. An ABI result under 0.90, for example, also indicates an increased risk of heart attack, stroke or dying of heart disease. That’s because people with severe atherosclerosis of the arteries of the leg usually also have atherosclerosis of the arteries of the heart and brain. I hope your test goes well. DR.
