Bookkeeper charged with forgery

BY AMY OBERLIN aoberlin@kpcmedia.com

ANGOLA — A bookkeeper for a local attorney is accused of taking around $10,000 from her employer over the course of a year.

Katherine C. Fulton, 32, of Angola, was arrested Tuesday on a warrant charging her with Class C felony forgery and five counts of Class D felony theft. She posted a $500 bond for her release from Steuben County Jail and will be arraigned at a later date.

Fulton allegedly took funds from the business between May 4, 2012, and June 3, 2013. The

investigation was prompted when another employee found $2,300 in a bank bag in a box under Fulton’s desk and reported it to their employer, police Fulton said.

Indiana State Police Detective Kevin Smith uncovered a series of fraudulent transactions, starting with a credit card Fulton allegedly obtained using her employer’s information. She allegedly racked up more than $1,000 in

23 transactions from May 4, 2012 through this year, including visits to a tanning salon, iTunes, a steakhouse, Meijer and a Southwest Airlines ticket on Jan. 27.

In addition, Fulton made four ATM or debit card withdrawals totalling $1,900, court documents charge.

From the office, Fulton is accused of taking cash, several times in 2012 and four times in 2013, totaling $4,335.

On three occasions, court documents say, Fulton wrote checks for non-existent services.

Those checks tallied $1,250,

allegedly written to Fulton Design and PC Repair.

The case has been filed in Steuben Superior Court. Because Fulton had worked with the Steuben County Prosecutor’s Office through her position at the law firm, a special prosecutor, Tim Cain of LaGrange, has been assigned to the case.

The Class C felony charge carries a prison term of up to eight years, and each theft count carries up to a three-year term.

Fire strikes group home in LaGrange LAGRANGE — An investigator with the Indiana State Fire Marshal’s office spent part of Wednesday afternoon poking around the second floor of a LaGrange County group home that caught fire Tuesday evening.

The fire damaged a bathroom, the attic and part of the second floor of Love Acres, a group home on C.R. 300N just west of S.R. 9. The home is owned by ARC Opportunities, based just across the street.

Five women and a caretaker lived at the house.

Firefighters arrived shortly after 8 p.m. Tuesday and found flames already leaping through a secondstory vent on the front of the building, said LaGrange Fire Chief Mark McClish.

He said it took a group of 35 firefighters approximately 20 minutes to bring the fire under control. LaGrange was assisted by members of the Howe Fire Department.

The home was equipped with both fire and smoke alarms.

Deb Seman, CEO of ARC, said a fire alarm alerted the home’s residents to the fire, and everyone safely exited the home.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama’s embattled top health official declared herself accountable Wednesday for failures of the much-maligned health insurance website as a newly surfaced government memo pointed to security concerns that were laid out just days before its launch.

Despite the problems, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius defended the health care overhaul, the signature legislative accomplishment of Obama’s first term. She said the website problems will be fixed

by Nov. 30 and gaining health insurance will make a positive difference in the lives of millions of Americans.

The website HealthCare.gov was still experiencing outages, even as Sebelius was testifying to the House Energy and Commerce Committee that “I’m responsible.”

And she faced a new range of questions about an internal memo from her department that revealed the troubled website was granted a temporary security certificate on Sept. 27, just four days before it went live on Oct. 1.

The memo, obtained by The Associated Press, said incomplete testing created uncertainties that posed a potentially high security risk for the website. It called for a six-month “mitigation” program, including ongoing monitoring and testing.

Republicans opposed to Obama’s health care law are calling for Sebelius to resign.

She apologized to people having trouble signing up but told the committee that the technical issues that led to frozen screens and error messages are being cleared up on a daily basis.

Community rallies behind band

BY AMY OBERLIN aoberlin@kpcmedia.com

ANGOLA — The Angola Marching Hornets are excited to return to the fanfare of the Indiana State School Music Association state finals Saturday in the Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.

As part of the celebration, this year’s show, “Reaching Out,” will be performed for the public on Thursday at 8 p.m. It will be outside on the west side of the high school weather permitting, and will be moved inside in case of rain.

People are also encouraged to gather at 5:15 p.m. Friday on Public Square to cheer the band on as the buses leave Angola for Indianapolis, escorted by fire and police vehicles.

“I am just so thankful that we live in a community that will support the band,” said drum major Anna Wilson, noting the many posters in business windows and decorations around town in honor of the Marching Hornets’ state berth.

Due to the costs of lodging,

food and other needs this weekend, the band program is accepting donations through the end of the week. Director Kevin Fogle can be reached by calling 665-2186, ext. 2300.

Tickets for the state show will be available at the high school office through noon on Friday for $20 for adults and $18 for students.

Angola competes in Open Class C, and advanced last weekend among the top 10 bands in the ISSMA semi-state competition.

“Reaching Out” has been a judges’ favorite throughout the season, consistently winning first-place and caption awards.

It uses challenging music from Michael Kamen’s “The New Moon in the Old Moon’s Arms.”

Choreography includes jumps and leaping gestures in keeping with imagery from the reaching hands in a Michelangelo fresco, “The Creation of Adam,” found in the Sistine Chapel.

Wilson noted that as the season started, the show seemed a lot like last year’s, which was a state

Local students involved in Trine children’s play ANGOLA — The Trine University Drama Club will perform “The Last of the Dragons,” at 6:30 p.m. Nov. 7, 8 and 9 in Wells Theater.

Kristen Walker’s “The Last of the Dragons” is a children’s play in which known traditions go wrong.

In the kingdom of Middlefield, the princess is tied to a rock and kidnapped by a dragon, on her 16th birthday, so she can be rescued by the prince and live happily ever after. But in this comedic play, the princess doesn’t want to be rescued, and the prince is too scared to fight, and to top everything off, there is no dragon to be found.

The cast consists of

Brian Boes, a senior mechanical engineer from Lafayette; Joshua Calhoun, a freshman general studies major from Kendallville; Katherine Hulquist, a sophomore criminal justice major from West Lebanon; Kelly Jagger, a freshman elementary education major from Camden, Mich.; Nathan Lysaght, a senior electrical engineer from Hicksville, Ohio; Tyler Marx, a sophomore social studies education major from Waterville, Ohio; Rachel Morris, a sophomore informatics major from Beech Grove; and Matthew Shaw, a freshman mechanical engineer from Terre Haute.

The play is being directed

by Heather Cannady, a senior general studies/ pre-law major from Butler.

She is assisted by Heather Darrah, a senior electrical engineering major and vice president of Drama Club from Topsfield, Mass.

Trine University is inviting the community to attend the children’s comedy. Tickets are free and available at the door each night of the performance.

Doors open at 6 p.m., and the show starts at 6:30 p.m.

“The Last of the Dragons” is presented by special arrangement with Samuel French Inc. and is sponsored by the Campus Activities Board.

Zoeller defending law on Lafayette abortion clinic INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Attorney General Greg Zoeller asked a federal judge on Wednesday to uphold a new law that would shut down Lafayette’s only abortion clinic.

Zoeller made the state’s case before U.S. District Judge Jane Magnus-Stinson, who is considering a request from the American Civil Liberties Union of Indiana to block the law before it takes effect on Jan. 1. Zoeller said the law reflects the will of Indiana citizens and that the ACLU and others trying to stop it haven’t proven their case.

“We respectfully contend the plaintiffs have not met their burden and this newly passed public-health statute should remain intact and no injunction should be granted,” Zoeller said.

Indiana lawmakers approved several new

requirements earlier this year for clinics that dispense the RU-486 abortion pill, including requiring such clinics to build separate recovery and surgical-procedure rooms and to widen doorways. While the new law is broadly written to apply to clinics providing just the medication and not surgical abortions, it would only apply to one Planned Parenthood clinic, in Lafayette.

“The state is basically saying you have to have a surgical abortion clinic in Lafayette,” said Ken Falk, the ACLU of Indiana’s legal director. “Planned Parenthood’s position is it’s completely irrational to have something like this when we don’t perform surgery at all.”

Nine surgical abortion clinics are currently licensed in Indiana, including three run by Planned Parenthood,

according to state records.

The ACLU also argued that the new law was similar to other laws that federal courts have struck down.

Supporters of the new law argue that it’s needed to protect women’s health from potentially fatal consequences after taking the abortion pill. Opponents have called it another attempt by the state to limit abortions.

The law and subsequent lawsuit continue years of litigation between the state and Planned Parenthood.

Lawmakers approved a measure in 2011 denying federal funding for Planned Parenthood. However, a federal administrative ruling earlier this year and the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision not to take on the issue effectively left the state with no means to enforce the law.

Region • Trick-or-treat stays put in Fort Wayne FORT WAYNE — Despite a rainy forecast for today in the area, Fort Wayne officials decided to not move trick-or-treating to Friday, according to a press release.

In a joint statement from Mayor Henry’s office and that of Police Chief Rusty York, “Though we received some inquiries into the rescheduling of ‘Trick-or-Treating’ due to the weather forecast, it was decided that because of several area events already scheduled for Friday evening, the move would create a burden for many families”.

Authorities said parents should adjust ensure that all trick-or-treaters are dressed according to the anticipated weather conditions. The latest forecast from the National Weather Service calls for windy conditions with a steady rain early, then remaining cloudy with a few showers toward the evening and night hours.

Lawsuit: Police dumped mom’s ashes during search MUNCIE (AP) — A central Indiana man has filed a lawsuit against two law enforcement agencies, saying a detective dumped his dead mother’s ashes in the trash during a search of his home.

In his lawsuit filed this month in Indianapolis federal court, Joshua Baker of Muncie contends that Muncie police detectives searched his home in October 2011 while he was at police headquarters being questioned by a Randolph County sheriff’s detective about a robbery, The Star Press reported.

Baker says a Muncie detective found a velvet bag, which he opened and a chrome vial filled with a gray powder and discarded the urn and ashes in a water-filled outdoor trash can without asking anyone about the powder.

Fishing lure show a success FORT WAYNE — The National Fishing Lure Collectors Club seventh antique fishing lure show sold out hundreds of tables of wares Saturday.

More than 300 people attended the event at at Don Hall’s Guesthouse and Convention Center.

“This was by far the largest and most successful fall show we have had,” said organizer Bob King. “Of interest were the number of people who brought in old family lures looking for information on how old and where they were made.

People were trying to find out if they were as old or older than they thought.”

Lures as old as the early 1900s were taken to the show. King said it was a surprise to their owners, “who thought they came from grandparents — not great-grandparents.”

While they brought items to be assessed, said King, “No one this year was interested in parting with their treasures.”

The exception to this was the owner of a very early outboard motor, made in Muncie that sold for several hundred dollars.

In 2014, Fort Wayne will host the National Fishing Lure Collectors Club National Convention.

This is expected to bring over 600 members and their families into the area. When they convene, Fort Wayne

Is increased use of essential oils robbing from the earth?

Dear EarthTalk: What’s the skinny on essential oils?

I love them, but a friend told me they are no good for the environment.

— Mary M., via e-mail Essential oils are more popular than ever for medicinal and therapeutic purposes as well as in fragrances and flavorings for food and drinks. Typically produced by harvesting and distilling large amounts of various types of plant matter, essential oils are in many cases all-natural and can take the place of synthetic chemicals in many consumer applications. But some wonder whether our fascination with essential oils is so good for the planet, now that their popularity has turned them into big business.

“It often takes hundreds of pounds of plant material to make one pound of essential oil,” reports aromatherapist and author Mindy Green of GreenScentsations. com. She adds that it takes 50-60 pounds of eucalyptus to produce one pound of eucalyptus oil, 200-250 pounds of lavender for one pound of lavender oil, 2,000

pounds of cypress for a pound of cypress oil and as many as 10,000 pounds of rose blossoms for one pound of rose oil. Production of these source crops takes place all over the world and is often organized by large multinational corporations with little regard for local economies or ecosystems.

“Growing the substantial quantities of plant material needed to produce essential oils results in a monoculture style of farming, with large swaths of land dedicated to a single species,” says Green. “These systems are most efficiently managed by intense mechanization, and irrigation is frequently used for optimal oil production of the plants.”

“As global citizens we have not learned how to equitably distribute vital resources like food, and water resources are trending toward a crisis of the future,” adds Green, “so there are deep ethical concerns about devoting croplands to essential oils destined for use in candles, bath oils, perfumes, or lavish massage and spa purposes.” Green also warns that many essential oils are not produced from sustain-

NRA marks the sale of 1 millionth handbook copy FAIRFAX, Va. — The National Rifle Association has recently sold its 1 millionth copy of the NRA Guide to the Basics of Pistol Shooting. Known as the Basic Pistol handbook, the guide is a comprehensive resource on responsible pistol use and is the foundation of NRA’s popular Basic Pistol and FIRST Steps Pistol Orientation courses.

First published in July 2009, the Basic Pistol handbook was written with the intent of becoming an at-home reference guide for gun owners. Topics included in the guide are basic firearm safety, storage options, range rules, target

scoring and basic fundamentals such as shooting positions, grip and aiming.

The guide can be purchased both individually and as part of a NRA Instructor-led course from the NRA’s Program Materials Center.

able sources. “Some species are at risk, particularly those occupying marginal habitats such as dwindling tropical forests,” she reports, adding that the poverty-stricken in developing countries will harvest and sell whatever they can, in order to put food on their own tables.

Cropwatch, a non-profit that keeps tabs on the natural aromatics industry, maintains a list of wild species threatened by the fast-growing essential oil trade. Of particular concern are essential oils derived from rosewood, sandalwood, amyris, thyme, cedarwood, jatamansi, gentian, wormwood and cinnamon, among others, as they may well be derived from threatened and illegally harvested wild plant stocks.

Also, some essential oils must be treated as hazardous if spilled and should be kept out of sewers and local waterways.

Mountain Rose Herbs, a leading retailer of essential oils, reports that if its tea tree oil spills, it should be absorbed with inert material and sealed it in a container before disposal at a hazardous waste collection

Nobel Peace Prize sends messages The Norwegian Nobel Committee on Oct. 11 announced its decision to award the Nobel Peace Prize for 2013 to the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW). The Hague-based organization, created in 1997 to implement the 1992 Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC) to prohibit the production, storage and use of chemical weapons, will receive the $1.25 million prize It is noteworthy that in Oslo on Dec. 10, the committee explicitly the 117th named the United States anniversary of and Russia in stating Nobel Prize that certain states have founder Alfred failed to observe the Nobel’s April 2012 deadline, death.

The under the CWC, to committee’s destroy their arsenals of message is clear. It chemical weapons. hopes that awarding the prize to the OPCW will accelerate global efforts to eliminate chemical weapons, which are relatively cheap and easy to produce and can indiscriminately kill or injure large numbers of people.

It is noteworthy that the committee explicitly named the United States and Russia in stating that certain states have failed to observe the April 2012 deadline, under the CWC, to destroy their arsenals of chemical weapons. Both countries — which together possess some 95 percent of the global stockpile of chemical weapons — should move quickly to fulfill their responsibilities.

The Nobel Committee decision will also exert pressure on six countries that have yet to become members of the CWC: Israel, Myanmar, North Korea, Egypt, South Sudan and Angola.

Another message is the committee’s hope that the OPCW will complete its task of eliminating Syria’s chemical weapons by mid-2014, with the cooperation of both the Syrian government and rebel forces as well as the support of the entire international community. On Oct. 14, Syria, which is believed to have some 1,000 tons of chemical weapons, became the 140th country to join the CWC. Following widespread use of chemical weapons in World War I, the 1925 Geneva Protocol banned their usage in war but not their production or stockpiling. The United Nations General Assembly on Nov. 30, 1992, approved the CWC, which bans the production and storage of chemical weapons as well as their use.

In August, more than 1,400 people were killed in a chemical weapons attack near Damascus. Under a U.S.-Russia deal, Syria must destroy its chemical weapons-filling equipment and production facilities by the end of November and eliminate its chemical weapons by mid-2014.

OPCW workers are now inspecting and destroying Syria’s chemical weapons.

This is an unprecedented mission as it is being carried out amid a brutal civil war.

Government and rebel forces must let the OPCW team do its job in a safe and efficient manner. Japan should consider how it can help facilitate this vital work.

Indiana State Police offer Halloween safety tips

DENNIS NARTKER

•

Parents and children will be out in full force tonight trick-or-treating and the Indiana State Police wants to remind parents to observe a few rules that will help make the evening fun and safe.

• Costume tips: Keep costumes short to prevent trips and falls; try make-up instead of a mask that can obstruct a child’s vision; wear light colors or reflective tape on costumes.

• Trick or treating:

Older children should trick-or-treat with friends and provide parents a route so the parents know where the children will be. Instruct children to stop only at familiar homes where the outside light is on; encourage children to travel on well-lighted streets; remind children not to enter the homes or cars of strangers; remind children to stay on the sidewalks when walking to and from different houses.

• Treats: Remind children not to eat treats until they get home; check out all treats at home; only eat unopened candies and treats in original wrappers; inspect fruits or anything suspicious.

• Homeowners: Turn on front light to indicate your willingness to treat; consider bringing pets inside and keeping them away from visitors; distribute candies in their original wrappers or boxes.

Daylight-saving time begins Don’t forget to turn your clocks back one hour before going to bed Saturday night. Daylight-saving time begins at 2 a.m. Sunday.

New friendships among life’s biggest blessings

BY LINDSAY WINSLOW BROWN

In all of life’s craziness, and with most of my family living several hours away, I’m realizing the importance of friendship — at home, church, work and the gym, and in the neighborhood.

People tend to gravitate to those who are like them. Moms connect with other moms.

Working professionals network with others in the business.

Students form study groups.

Athletes come together as teams and leagues.

Author and theologian C.S. Lewis once said, “Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another: “What!

You too? I thought that no one but myself …”

As hunting season is under way, I can’t help but think about one of my newest friends.

Laura Freeze and I met about a year ago. Maybe longer. I don’t remember. Time flies.

This summer, after taking a tour at DeBrand Fine Chocolates and sharing stories, we started spending time together.

I love making new friends.

It’s great to learn about their hobbies, interests and passions.

We also learned that we’re probably related. She’s named after her great-grandmother, Laura Winslow. My maiden name is Winslow. According to the family history books, we’re kin. We just haven’t connected all the dots yet.

Like Laura, I’m a working mom and a Christian. She’s a

special education teacher who is able to reach and connect with children in a meaningful way. We both love “The Andy Griffith Show,” canning, talking and the idea of adventure. Our husbands graduated from high school together, and we each have one son — she has Little Greg, and I have Connor. The only difference is, when I was pregnant, I watched documentaries on television — she went deer hunting and was waist high in chest waders in icy water while fishing for steelhead near Cleveland. Wait. That’s not the only difference. She likes green-handled antique cooking utensils, and I like red.

Laura is cool. Like many of my friends, she has no intention of fitting into a box.

She’s hunted and fished since she was a kid — and now I find myself wanting to branch out. I’m adding those to my list — somewhere between flying, running, singing and baking.

I just have to get my license, practice shooting and I’m set.

Laura appreciates the subtleties of life — sunsets, quiet lakes, dewy mornings, the crunch of autumn leaves.

Some of her early memories include long country rides with a shake or pop from the Brown House, fishing at her uncle’s pond, long walks with her mom, and excitedly meeting her dad and brothers at the door after hunting. Every chance she got, she went to her dad’s bait shop

“Laura Freeze — like many of my friends — has no intention of fitting into a box,” writes Lindsay Winslow Brown.

in Auburn, where she learned that every person is treated with respect whether they were rich or poor, educated or not.

This summer, we canned tomato juice together. If you’re going to preserve nature’s bounty, it’s best to do it with a friend. We laughed and shared stories the whole time; we hardly noticed we were working. It became clear to me in those times that her family’s love of hunting and fishing created a bridge to keep them together. Laura had the opportunity to share the experience of harvesting her first deer with her brother, Tom. To this day, she still goes fishing with Tom and her other brother, Tim. Laura says her husband,

Greg, is her best friend. They do everything together. They fish for walleye and perch on Lake Erie. In the late winter and early spring they make maple syrup together — in a sugar shack they built. They canoed 37 miles in the Canadian wilderness together.

It’s a blessing to call Laura a friend. I appreciate her sense of adventure, love of nature and willingness to share her skills and talents with others.

Transportation plays a key role in nonemergency health care

BY FLORA M. CASTILLO

The Affordable Care Act’s new health insurance exchanges have just opened for business.

Lawmakers may differ about the best way forward for health reform.

But they should all be able to agree that problems with transportation should not keep people from securing the care they need.

According to the Federal Transit Administration, about 3.6 million Americans skip or delay nonemergency medical care every year because of issues with transportation. Their doctor’s office may not be conveniently reachable by public transit or they may have trouble transporting their entire family when child care is unavailable.

Prevention is the key to a successful health care system.

These missed appointments can

Guest Column • lead to the deterioration of a person’s medical condition and even greater health costs.

More than half of these 3.6 million folks have limited financial resources, with household incomes of less than $20,000 a year. A number of them may be eligible for Medicaid but have trouble putting their coverage to use because they struggle to get to the doctor.

Their limited mobility doesn’t just jeopardize their health it also exacerbates America’s health cost crisis.

The FTA found that, compared to the general population, these 3.6 million Americans are more likely to suffer from chronic conditions like high blood pressure or diabetes.

Chronic diseases are responsible for 75 percent of U.S. health expenditures, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

And if the people missing those appointments are on Medicaid, taxpayers shoulder the additional costs that come about when patients forego treatment and allow health problems to grow serious.

Improving our health care system will therefore require improving Americans’ access to transportation.

Investing more in public transit and coordinating existing transportation service providers are both critical.

But money alone isn’t the answer.

Policymakers should also take advantage of the services that local public transit agencies already offer.

Examples for how to do so abound.

Consider Cleveland’s Health-

Investing more in public transit and coordinating existing transportation service providers are both critical.

• Line service, which delivers patients and riders to the Cleveland Clinic and University Hospitals, among other destinations, every five minutes during the morning and afternoon rush hours. Such a system provides patients with convenient, direct access to their health care providers and increases the likelihood that they’ll make their appointments.

Since July 2009, New Jersey has contracted with a broker to provide

NEMT to Medicaid beneficiaries.

The broker receives an annual fee for each eligible patient. By working with county community transit systems and purchasing NJ Transit bus and rail tickets when appropriate, the broker has reduced costs per passenger trip. Over 15 percent of the 5.2 million Medicaid NEMT trips in 2012 were provided by public or county community transit.

Collaborative efforts like these can go a long way toward helping Americans make their doctor’s appointments and thus stay healthy.

FLORA M. CASTILLO is the former chairman of the American Public Transportation Association, a vice president at AmeriHealth Caritas and a Board Member at New Jersey Transit Inc.

Briefs • City sues hot sauce maker over smell LOS ANGELES (AP) — The maker of Sriracha hot sauce is under fire for allegedly fouling the air around its Southern California factory.

The city of Irwindale filed a lawsuit in Los Angeles Superior Court Monday asking a judge to stop production at the Huy Fong Foods factory, claiming the chili odor emanating from the plant is a public nuisance.

City officials say residents have been complaining of burning eyes, irritated throats and headaches and that some people have had to leave their house to escape the smell.

One family was forced to move a birthday party indoors after the strong smell overwhelmed the festivity, Irwindale City Attorney Fred Galante told the Los Angeles Times.

Huy Fong initially cooperated with the city, but talks broke down last week after company representatives denied there was an odor problem, saying their employees worked in similar olfactory settings without complaint, Galante said.

The city, which is about 20 miles east of downtown Los Angeles, is seeking temporary closure of the factory until Huy Fong submits a plan to minimize the smell.

Commercial flights to space delayed LAS CRUCES, N.M. (AP) — Virgin Galactic has again pushed back its estimated start date for launching commercial flights from New Mexico’s Spaceport America. And spaceport officials say they’ll need to ask the Legislature for more money to make up for lost user fees from the company.

New Mexico Spaceport Authority Chairman Rick Holdridge said that the expected start of tourism space flights has been pushed back from February to August 2014, a delay he says is expensive for the state.

Spaceport officials say they’ll have to ask the Legislature in January for $7 million to finish paving a road between the Spaceport and Las Cruces because other expenses have eaten into its budget.

Virgin Galactic, which is the anchor tenant, began paying its $1 million a year rent on the facility in January.

People • Who’s Daltrey sings at dedication of bust honoring Churchill WASHINGTON (AP) — Congress honored Winston Churchill with a bust and a performance by another famous Briton, The Who’s Roger Daltrey.

Senate and House leaders, Daltrey as well as Secretary of State John Kerry, gathered Wednesday to dedicate the Churchill bust, which will now stand in the Capitol as a testament to the strength of the relationship between the United States and the United Kingdom. Daltrey sang, “Stand by Me,” and House Speaker John Boehner said the song was a tribute to the U.S.-U.K. relationship.

Daltrey also performed the Who classic “Won’t Get Fooled Again.” The pair of songs had Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell and House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi bobbing their heads in bipartisan unity.

Afterward, Daltrey was swarmed by fans — several members of Congress among them — hoping for a photo with the singer.

Pakistan drone casualty figures questioned ISLAMABAD (AP) — The Pakistani government said Wednesday that 3 percent of 2,227 people killed in U.S. drone strikes since 2008 were civilians, a surprisingly low figure that sparked criticism from groups that have investigated death tolls from the attacks.

The number, which was provided by the Ministry of Defense to the Senate, is much lower than past government calculations and estimates by independent organizations that have gone as high as 300. The ministry

said 317 drone strikes have killed 2,160 Islamic militants and 67 civilians since 2008.

The attacks, which mainly target suspected Islamic militants near the northwestern border with Afghanistan, are widely unpopular in Pakistan because they are viewed as violating the country’s sovereignty and killing too many civilians. The Pakistani government regularly criticizes the drone program in public, even though it is known to have secretly supported at least

some of the strikes in the past.

Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif pressed President Barack Obama to end the attacks in a visit to the White House last week, but the U.S. considers the attacks vital to its battle against al-Qaida and the Taliban and gave no indication it was willing to abandon them.

Defense Ministry officials could not be reached for comment, and the statement posted on the Senate’s website did not give any indication why

the number was so much lower than past government calculations and outside estimates.

A U.N. expert investigating drone strikes, Ben Emmerson, said earlier this month that the Pakistani Foreign Ministry told him that at least 400 civilians have been killed by the attacks in the country since they started in 2004.

Emmerson called on the government to explain the apparent discrepancy, saying the figures provided by the Foreign Ministry since 2004 indicated a much

higher percentage of civilian casualties.

“If the true figures for civilian deaths are significantly lower, then it is important that this should now be made clear, and the apparent discrepancy explained,” Emmerson said in an email.

The Bureau of Investigative Journalism, based in London, has estimated that drones have killed at least 300 civilians in Pakistan since 2008, while the Washington-based New America Foundation put the figure at 185.

Iraq asking for more US help

AP

An Israeli flag is seen in front of the West Bank Jewish settlement of Maaleh Adumim on the outskirts of Jerusalem recently. Israel on Wednesday announced plans to build 1,500 new

homes in east Jerusalem, the part of the city claimed by the Palestinians, just hours after it freed a group of Palestinian prisoners as part of a deal to set peace talks in motion.

Israel to add 1,500 homes to West Bank settlements JERUSALEM (AP) — Israel announced plans Wednesday to build more than 1,500 homes in Jewish settlements in east Jerusalem and the West Bank, dealing a setback to newly relaunched peace efforts hours after it had freed a group of long-serving Palestinian prisoners.

The construction plans drew angry condemnations from Palestinian officials, who accused Israel of undermining the U.S.-led talks by expanding settlements on the lands where they hope to establish an independent state. U.N. chief Ban Ki-moon also condemned the Israeli decision, and Washington said it would not create a “positive environment” for the negotiations.

Israel had freed the 26 Palestinian prisoners as part of a U.S.-brokered agreement to restart the talks. The construction was meant to blunt anger over the release of the prisoners, all of whom had been convicted of murder in the deaths of Israelis.

Israel’s Interior Ministry said 1,500 apartments would be built in Ramat Shlomo, a large settlement in east Jerusalem, the section of

the holy city claimed by the Palestinians as their capital.

It also announced plans for archaeology and tourism projects near the Old City, home to Jerusalem’s most sensitive holy sites.

Israel first announced the Ramat Shlomo plan in 2010 during a visit to Israel

by U.S. Vice President Joe Biden, sparking a diplomatic rift with Washington that took months to mend.

Wednesday’s decision is the final approval needed, and construction can begin immediately, officials said.

Ofir Akunis, a lawmaker from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s Likud Party, said construction also had been approved for several West Bank settlements.

“The building in Judea and Samaria will continue and be intensified,” said Akunis, using the biblical term for the West Bank.

In addition, he told parliament that Netanyahu had given orders to “advance plans” for more than 2,000 homes in a longer list of settlements across the West Bank.

While these projects still need additional bureaucratic approvals, they are especially provocative

because several of the settlements are deep inside the West Bank and almost certainly would have to be dismantled as part of a peace deal.

Israel captured east Jerusalem, along with the West Bank and Gaza Strip, in the 1967 Mideast war.

The Palestinians seek all three areas for a future state.

The Palestinians, along with virtually all of the international community, consider the settlements to be illegal or illegitimate.

Nabil Abu Rdeneh, a spokesman for Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, condemned the settlement plans, saying they were “destructive to the peace efforts and will only lead to more tensions.”

“It’s a message to the international community that Israel is a state that doesn’t abide by international law and continues to put obstacles in the way of peace,” he said.

In Washington, State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said, “We do not consider continued settlement activity or East Jerusalem construction to be steps that create a positive environment for the negotiations.”

WASHINGTON (AP) — Nearly two years after pushing out the U.S. military, Iraq is asking for more American weapons, training and manpower to help fight a bloody resurgence of al-Qaida that has unleashed a level of violence comparable to the darkest days of the nation’s civil war.

The request will be discussed during a White House meeting Friday between Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki and President Barack Obama in what Baghdad hopes will be a fresh start in a complicated relationship that has been marked by victories and frustrations for each side.

“We know we have major challenges of our own capabilities being up to the standard. They currently are not,” Lukman Faily, the Iraqi ambassador to the U.S., said in an interview with The Associated Press. “We need to gear up, to deal with that threat more seriously. We need support and we need help.”

He added: “We have said to the Americans we’d be more than happy to discuss all the options short of boots on the ground.”

“Boots on the ground” means military forces. The U.S. withdrew all but a few hundred of its troops from Iraq in December 2011 after Baghdad refused to renew a security agreement to extend legal immunity for Americans forces that would have let more stay.

At the time, the withdrawal was hailed as a victory for the Obama administration, which campaigned on ending the Iraq war and had

little appetite for pushing Baghdad into a new security agreement. But within months, violence began creeping up in the capital and across the country as Sunni Muslim insurgents lashed out at Shiites, angered by a widespread belief that Sunnis have been sidelined by the Shiite-led government, and with no U.S. troops to keep them in check.

More than 5,000 Iraqis have been killed in attacks since April, and suicide bombers launched 38 strikes in the last month alone.

Al-Maliki is expected to ask Obama for new assistance to bolster its military and fight al-Qaida.

Faily said that could include everything from speeding up the delivery of U.S. aircraft, missiles, interceptors and other weapons, to improving national intelligence systems. And when asked, he did not rule out the possibility of asking the U.S. to send military special forces or additional CIA advisers to Iraq to help train and assist counterterror troops.

If the U.S. does not commit to providing the weapons or other aid quickly, “we will go elsewhere,” Faily said.

That means Iraq will step up diplomacy with nations like China or Russia that would be more than happy to increase their influence in Baghdad at U.S. expense.

The two leaders also will discuss how Iraq can improve its fractious government, which so often is divided among sectarian or ethnic lines, to give it more confidence with a bitter and traumatized public.

BAND: Show has happy theme, difficult music blossomed. Like last year’s music, “Reaching Out” has a happy theme, compared to many dark dissertations provided by other bands.

Senior Liz Lung noted that as they practice week in and week out, they begin “living” the music, and it’s nice to be engrossed in an upbeat feeling. Sophmore sousaphone player Noah Derr said he feels like everything about the show fits, from the choreography to the music.

“We are taking more risks but we can get more rewards out of it,” said senior tenor sax Lucas Hulka. This week, practices continued, with three 7 a.m. meetings and work during school. The band will spend Friday night in a hotel then will practice two hours at Lawrence Central High School before going to Lucas Oil for the competition.

“We’re still cleaning it up and we’re still getting better,” said senior trumpet player Arin Atkinson. The goal is to play the best show of the year Saturday. Angola High School performs at 2:46 p.m. as part of the Class C contingent.

“The kids have that fire in them,” said Wilson.

Lung plays a flute solo throughout the show that integrates with a flugal horn solo by Darius Hillman.

“It’s like a call and response,” explained Fogle.

Lung said making sure the two solos match up is integral. In their final show in the stadium, part of the challenge will be keeping to their own beats without trying to react to the others’ music. Due to the natural reverberations of the stadium, echoes can throw off precision music, so it’s very important, Fogle said, that they keep their eyes on

the drum majors’ hands.

Sophomore baritone Jackson Atkinson said last year at state they learned to “watch not to listen.” This year, Atkinson said he would be more in touch with the acoustics of the stadium, which sometimes makes it seem like one is playing alone.

“Last year it was so surreal and weird,” said junior sax player Brooke Foulk.

It can be hard to block out the surrounding activity, “especially when you see your face on the Jumbotron, which I did last year,” said Derr.

Ninth grader Leslie Garcia said she is excited to be part of a legacy at Angola High School.

“When I heard we were going to state finals I started crying,” she said.

“It’s like the best feeling in the whole world,” said Arin Atkinson.

Stutzman works to divide food stamps, farm policy WASHINGTON — The Farm Bill Conference Committee met for the first time Wednesday, and U.S. Rep. Marlin Stutzman, R-3rd, led a group of 27 House members urging the committee to keep farm policy and food stamp policy Stutzman separate.

Stutzman, of Howe, and his colleagues asked the committee to maintain separate reauthorization dates for food stamp and farm policy programs to ensure that each program receives separate consider-

ation on its own merits in the future.

“Washington is $17 trillion in debt, and taxpayers deserve an honest conversation about how Congress spends their money,” Stutzman said in a news release. “Instead of passing trillion-dollar spending packages that are Farm Bills in name only, we should consider food stamps and farm policy separately. That’s exactly what the House did earlier this year, and the Conference Committee shouldn’t reverse this historic victory for transparency.”

In the letter, Stutzman and other members wrote in part, “Our constituents deserve a Congress that

thoughtfully and separately considers the legislation that it passes. It’s just common sense. And in a historic move this summer, the House of Representatives did just that. For the first time in nearly 40 years, the House voted on and passed separate and substantive reform bills governing farm and food stamp policy.

“Now that substantial reforms have been made, we request the Conference Committee adopt the separate reauthorization timelines, three years for food stamps and five years for farm policy, in order to ensure that these policies are debated and voted on apart from each other in the future.

It’s time to do this right.”

Spying on heads of state not done only by America WASHINGTON (AP) — Nations spying on each other’s leaders is a two-way street and a longtime practice in the intelligence world, according to the U.S. intelligence chief. But a surveillance sweep on phone records overseas that has prompted an anti-American backlash was carried out

by European governments, not the U.S., another intelligence official said.

National Intelligence Director James Clapper spoke Tuesday to lawmakers in a Congress divided over how to revise National

decorating designation against the Transitional Living Center, also in Angola.

Security Agency surveillance programs that have fueled bitter criticism at home and abroad. Though most of the programs were enacted as a result of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, U.S. officials are nearly unanimous in saying they’re ready for a review to see if the scope of spying remains necessary.

At a House Intelligence Committee hearing, Clapper defended the secret surveillance that sweeps up phone records and emails of millions of Americans as vital to protecting against

terrorists. He played down European allies’ complaints about spying on their leaders, saying they do it, too.

“That’s a hardy perennial,” Clapper told lawmakers.

Clapper said that during his 50 years working in intelligence it was “a basic tenet” to collect, whether by spying on communications or through other sources, confidential information about foreign leaders that reveals “if what they’re saying gels with what’s actually going on.”

CONTEST: Contest fosters creativity, healing FROM PAGE A1

No additional Halloween decorations may be purchased. The women must all use the oodles of Halloween creations donated by Sheila Blain, a Steuben County resident and friend to both organizations.

“Mrs. Blain challenged both organizations, staff and residents to a Halloween decorating contest,” said Summer Hulbert, TLC executive director. “Each house has two weeks to come up with some creatively spooky decor, only with the items donated

by Shelia Blain. Purchasing new things is not allowed.”

Hulbert said Blain donated 12 totes full of Halloween items. Six of the bins were given to TLC and the other six to WIT.

Hulbert said her six residents made a figure they named LeRoy. LeRoy’s legs are upside down, looking like he’s being sucked into a grave.

“One bin was body parts,” Hulbert laughed. “We have a meeting room and we had it laying all over.”

Hulbert said last Friday night, those in her house ordered pizza for dinner and decorated with what they dug out of their bins.

She said the experience has been healing for the women.

“We’ve had a lot of fun.

It’s brought us together,” she said. “It’s to promote sisterhood and have fun.”

Over at WIT, Shelly Sonner, executive director, said her eight residents have been very busy decorating.

“They’re just really

excited,” Sonner said.

“We have a posting for an affirmation that it will be the scariest coolest, best decorated house in town.”

Sonner said her residents are finding such items in the totes as skeletons, spiders, mice, lights, lanterns, spider webs, a rat, other Halloween table decorations.

“I told Women in Transition that we could decorate at a top level,” Sonner said.

Some members of the community will judge the contest Friday. Judging will be based on creativity, effective use of decor and participation.

The winning house gets a pizza party at Pizza Hut. TLC-Steuben serves women victims of domestic violence. WIT serves women in recovery from alcoholism or drug addiction.

Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius testifies before the House Energy and Commerce Committee about the difficulties

plaguing the implementation of the Affordable Care Act on Capitol Hill in Washington Wednesday.

HOT SEAT: Healthcare site’s security questioned FROM PAGE A1

concerns on top of the long list of technical problems the administration is grappling with.

“You accepted a risk on behalf of every user … that put their personal financial information at risk,” Rep. Mike Rogers, R-Mich., told Sebelius, citing the memo. “Amazon would never do this. ProFlowers would never do this. Kayak would never do this. This is completely an unacceptable level of security.”

Sebelius countered that the system is secure, even though the site’s certificate, known in government parlance as an “authority to operate,” is of a temporary nature. A permanent certificate will be issued only when all security issues are addressed, she stressed.

Spokeswoman Joanne

Peters added separately: “When consumers fill out their online … applications, they can trust that the information they’re providing is protected by stringent security standards and that the technology underlying the application process has been tested and is secure. Security testing happens on an ongoing basis using industry best practices.”

The security certificate is required under longstanding federal policy before any government computer system can process, store or transmit agency data.

The temporary certificate was approved by Medicare chief Marilyn Tavenner, the senior HHS official closest to the rollout. No major security breaches have been reported.

The memo said, “From

a security perspective, the aspects of the system that were not tested due to the ongoing development, exposed a level of uncertainty that can be deemed as a high risk for the (federal marketplace website).”

It recommended setting up a security team to address risks and conduct daily tests, and said a full security test should be conducted within two to three months of the website going live.

A separate page stated that “the mitigation plan does not reduce the risk to the (website) itself going into operation on October 1, 2013. However, the added protections do reduce the risk to the overall Marketplace operations and will ensure that the … system is completely tested within the next 6 months.”

Red Sox romp to world title BOSTON (AP) — David Ortiz and the Boston Red Sox romped to their third World Series championship in 10 seasons, thumping October ace Michael Wacha and the St. Louis Cardinals 6-1 Wednesday night in Game 6.

Shane Victorino drove in four runs and John Lackey pitched shutout ball into the seventh inning as the Red Sox clinched a crown on their own field for the first time since 1918.

Fenway Park was rollicking, with the crowd standing from the very first pitch. Victorino lined a three-run double off the Green Monster in the third, and

the cheers, chants and singing of “Sweet Caroline” only got louder after that.

Many fans paid over $1,000 per ticket for this night, eager to be part of an in-house celebration that had been building for nearly a century.

Ortiz drew three walks and scored twice. He reached base a whopping 19 times in 25 plate appearances.

Lackey gave up one run in 6 2-3 innings, becoming the first pitcher to start and win a World Series clincher for two different teams, having led the Angels past Barry Bonds and the Giants in

Game 7 in 2002 as a rookie.

Stephen Drew hit a solo home run that someone in a Red Sox jacket caught in the bullpen. Mike Napoli, back in the lineup with Ortiz returning to the DH slot, hit an RBI single into the “B Strong” cutout in the grass that pays tribute to the victims of the Boston Marathon bombings.

The Cardinals dropped their third straight game. After winning Game 3 on an obstruction call, they couldn’t seem to get out of their own way.

A day after the Cardinals’ plane was delayed in St. Louis for seven hours because of mechan-

ical problems, the NL champions didn’t show up at Fenway. An example? Jacoby Ellsbury reached on second baseman Matt Carpenter’s error in the fifth, then got picked off first but escaped a run down when the Cards made four throws to no avail.

Wacha, too, was downright ordinary after such a brilliant run this month.

The 22-year-old began the evening at 4-0 with a 1.00 ERA in four starts this postseason.

He escaped a jam in the third, got tagged by Victorino in the third and left during a three-run fourth.

Beckmann’s time to shine All-NHC Baron hopes last year’s state experience pays off Saturday

The

WATERLOO — All of Mark Beckmann’s training throughout the summer and regular season this fall paid dividends in a major way when the end of the year rolled around.

The DeKalb junior didn’t win his first individual title until the Northeast Hoosier Conference Meet on Oct. 5, the last meet of the regular season. But it proved to be a sign of things to come, with Beckmann winning the sectional title, finishing second at the regional and third in the semistate — all of which was more than good enough to qualify Beckmann for Saturday’s Indiana High School Athletic Association State Finals in Terre Haute.

“It took a lot of hard work to get back here but it’s all paying off,” said Beckmann, who logged more than 300 miles running during the summer. “And now we just got to keep setting bigger goals next year and try and go for a medal.”

Both Beckmann and head coach Rowland Perez aren’t satisfied with just making it to the state finals. Beckmann advanced to the state meet last year, finishing 45th (16 minutes, 10.6 seconds). This year the goals are much higher, the biggest being to reach the podium. The

top 20 finishers in the state earn that distinction, while the top 25 runners are selected to the all-state team.

Beckmann’s best time this year is 15:34, accomplished at the Bruin Invite. The junior surmises that he’ll need a time somewhere in the low 15:40s to place among the top 20 across the Hoosier State.

“I would like to be on the podium this year,” Beckmann said.

In order to do that though, Beckmann will have to alter his strategy from last year. The Lavern Gibson Championship Cross Country Course at Indiana State University is all downhill for the first half of the race and, last year, Beckmann didn’t pace himself properly and lost some steam when the course reached the hills.

“You have to be careful,” Perez said.

“The adrenaline’s going, the crowd will be pumping you up and halfway through is when you die and and they hit the hills.”

To do that means to stay with the pack of top 20 runners or so, but to avoid running too quickly out of the gates.

And Beckmann’s state finals experience from last year will certainly help.

“I’m better at hills so that’ll help me a lot,” Beckmann said. “I’ve just got to stay on my

Pacers rally past New Orleans NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Paul George scored 32, George Hill capped a 19-point performance with pivotal 3-pointer in the final minute, and the Indiana Pacers erased a 16-point deficit en route to a 95-90 victory over the New Orleans Pelicans on Wednesday night.

Former New Orleans forward David West helped Indiana spoil the home opener for the rebranded Pelicans by hitting four free throws in the final 1:06 and finished with 12 points. Lance Stephenson scored 16 points for the Pacers, who had opened their season a night earlier with a victory over Orlando.

Roy Hibbert blocked five shots and Ian Mahinmi blocked four for Indiana, which had 12 blocks in all.

Eric Gordon scored 25 points and former Philadelphia All-Star Jrue Holiday added 24 in his Pelicans debut. Anthony Davis had 20 points, 12 rebounds and three blocks.

The Pelicans led 85-81 after Holiday’s jumper, but Hibbert scored on a spin move in the paint while drawing center Jason Smith’s sixth foul, and then made the free throw to make it 85-84.

West then snagged the rebound of Holiday’s missed jumper and soon after drew a foul, setting up the first of his late free throws to give Indiana the lead for good. After Davis’ driving layup attempt rimmed out, Hill drilled a straight-on 3 with 31.1 seconds left, and New Orleans could not

Trailing 52-36 after Smith’s basket opened scoring in the third

period, Indiana quickly closed the gap with a 10-0 run fueled by Hill’s layup and 3-pointer.

Carroll and East Noble both placed seven players on the first team all-Northeast Hoosier Conference football squad, tops among all NHC teams. Conference champion New Haven put five players on the first team. DeKalb had one player earn first-team honors.

AUBURN HILLS, Mich. (AP) — Greg Monroe had 24 points and 16 rebounds, and the new-look Detroit Pistons won their season opener in convincing fashion, beating the Washington Wizards 113-102 Wednesday night.

Andre Drummond added 12 points and eight rebounds for Detroit, which is hoping to snap a streak of four straight seasons without reaching the playoffs. The Pistons signed Josh Smith and Chauncey Billups in the offseason and added Brandon Jennings in a trade. Jennings did not play Wednesday — he’s been bothered by a wisdom tooth.

Trevor Ariza scored 28 points for the Wizards, who were outscored 56-28 in the paint.

Smith had 19 points for

He’ll be in a pack of 20 people and once he gets there he’s going to separate himself. Everything we’ve done for this one race, it’s up to him to run the race.

We’re pretty confident he’ll get it done.”

Another accomplishment the Baron achieved was reaching the top-10 list for fastest times in the program since 2000.

“Hard work motivates you, and your coaches motivate you,” Beckmann said. “And all of your friends when they talk about it. It just keeps you going.”

There are 208 runners in the race, which begins at 1 p.m. Saturday. You can watch the race online at www.ustream.tv/channel/ terre-haute-north-video.

Said Perez, ” It’s a crazy, crazy atmosphere and he’s been there. He knows the course, he likes the course and all of that is going in his favor. He knows exactly what to do. He’s a textbook athlete. He does everything we ask and then some.

Beckmann is also motivated by last week’s third-place finish at the semistate. Beckmann appeared to have second place locked up — behind defending state runner-up Zach Panning of Concordia — but was chased down by Homestead’s Brayden Law and finished third.

“He’s not going to be in the pack he was last year,” Perez said. “He is one of

Detroit. Washington’s John Wall had 20 points and 11 assists, but went 8 of 21 from the field.

Detroit led 89-85 in the fourth when Kyle Singler pushed the lead to seven with a driving three-point play. Billups later made back-to-back 3-pointers to make it 100-87.

Washington is hoping to reach the playoffs for the first time since 2008, but it may be awhile before the Wizards or Pistons really have a sense of how improved they are.

Washington was without first-round draft pick Otto Porter, who has been out with a right hip flexor problem. Center Marcin Gortat, acquired from Phoenix in a trade last week, did not start and played only 17 minutes.

Wallace’s win came a week after he endured the hardest crash of his career, at Talladega Superspeedway, which ironically was the same place that Scott’s Sprint Cup career essentially ended because of injuries suffered in a wreck in 1973.

Asked at Martinsville who he would like to call — if he could — to talk about the win, Wallace mentioned the NASCAR Hall of Fame nominee who was among the first African-Americans to race in NASCAR. “If Wendell Scott was alive, I would like to call him, but I can call Wendell Scott Jr.,” he said. “He sent me a text after Talladega and said just please just send a letter or a text or word back to make sure, to let me know that you’re all right, because he said he had déjà vu of his dad at Talladega.”

NASCAR to require drivers to undergo concussion baseline testing for 2014

Nearly 50 years ago, on Dec. 1, 1963, at a dirt track in Jacksonville, Fla., the late Wendell Scott made history by becoming the first African-American to win a major NASCAR race.

On Saturday at Martinsville Speedway, Darrell Wallace Jr. became the second by winning the Kroger 200 in the Camping World Truck Series.

Wallace, driving a Toyota for Kyle Busch Motorsports, started third and led 96 laps, including the final 50, to get the victory in his 19th career start in the series.

Like any other first-time winner, Wallace was overcome by emotion when the checkered flag came into view.

“I’m speechless,” he said as he climbed from his truck. “God, I couldn’t even hold it together coming off (Turn) Four with the checkered. I still can’t.”

The 20-year-old driver from Mobile, Ala., said he was proud to have scored his first win at a track not far down the road from Scott’s hometown of Danville, Va. “To do it here in the backyard of Wendell Scott means so much more, and like it’ll take tomorrow for this to finally hit me, so I might be crying again tomorrow, but this is an emotional win and a big win for all of us,” he said.

Wallace is now the second member of NASCAR’s Drive for Diversity program to win a major event, joining Kyle Larson, who is part Japanese and who won a Truck race at Rockingham Speedway in April. And Wallace knows and embraces the fact that as such, he’s now in the position of being a role model for other up-andcoming young racers.

“I want to be a role model and inspiration to the younger kids, and just change the sport as a whole and change it for the better; bring in a new face and just new activity into the sport, and winning helps

Darrell Wallace Jr. makes history at Martinsville Speedway in Camping World Truck Series Kroger 200

Darrell Wallace Jr. gives the crowd a burnout after his victory on Saturday.

Wallace’s team owner Kyle Busch was proud to be a part of Saturday’s historic accomplishment.

“I’m happier for Darrell than for anybody, but this is certainly a monumental day, and hopefully one that he’ll remember for a long time and can cherish,” Busch said. “The first one is always the most important one because it seems like they can just come right after that pretty easily.

“We’ve seen great things out of Darrell this year, and he’s really come a long ways throughout the season.”

Despite his success, Wallace is still uncertain about his 2014 racing plans, but a major victory could change that.

“Winning definitely helps out with sponsorship,” he said. “I’d love to be back in a Toyota Tundra for Kyle, competing for wins each and every weekend, especially now after this. We’ve learned a lot and we’ve still got three races to learn, and to do that again next year, we should be going for that championship and a hard one to beat.”

The history-making at Martinsville Speedway, which started with Darrell Wallace Jr.’s win in Saturday’s Truck race, continued Sunday when Jeff Gordon, one of NASCAR’s all-time great drivers, broke a season-long winless streak and ran his career total to 88 Sprint Cup victories. Only Richard Petty, with 200 wins, and David Pearson, with 105, are ahead of him in all-time Cup victories.

Gordon’s win also put him in a tie with his teammate Jimmie Johnson for most Martinsville wins among active drivers.

NASCAR announced last week that beginning next season, the sanctioning body will require drivers to undergo preseason baseline testing as part of its concussion prevention and management program.

“NASCAR made this decision because we think it is important to drivers’ health for doctors to have the best information and tools available in evaluating injuries,” Steve O’Donnell, NASCAR vice president of racing operations, said in making the announcement.

Baseline testing will be done with an ImPACT (Immediate Post-Concussion Assessment and Cognitive Testing) test.

Drivers were encouraged to have the tests this year, but they will be required next season.

Bill Elliott finishes fourth in Late Model Veteran Sprint Cup driver Bill Elliott, who hasn’t raced in Cup since July 2012, was back behind the wheel of a race car a couple of weeks ago in a Late Model race at South Alabama Speedway in Opp, Ala., where he finished fourth in a 125-lap race won by his son, Chase Elliott.

“Chase and the guys on the crew talked me into it,” Elliott said. “It was a lot of fun.”

Elliott finished just ahead of Harrison Burton, the 13-year-old son of Sprint Cup driver Jeff Burton.

“It felt kind of weird racing someone that young,” Elliott said, “especially when you’re 58.”

Kevin Harvick sounds off after Martinsville crash In the heat of the moment during the Kroger 200 Truck race at Martinsville, Kevin Harvick shed some light on the reasons behind his decision to leave Richard Childress Racing and move to StewartHaas Racing next season.

Harvick and Ty Dillon — one of two racing grandsons of his current car owner, Richard Childress — wrecked on the track, banged fenders several times under caution and had another incident on pit road.

Harvick sounded off to the media afterward, saying Dillon was a “rich kid” who hadn’t earned his place as a NASCAR driver and blamed him for the wreck.

“The 3 (Dillon) just dumped me,” Harvick said. “Exactly the reason why I’m leaving RCR, because you’ve got those (Dillon) kids coming up and they’ve got no respect for what they do in this sport, and they’ve had everything fed to them with a spoon. So, I cut him slack all day and he just divebombs me in there; dumps me.”

Dillon, a Truck Series regular, said Harvick had it coming.

“He got sideways and then he hit the brakes and tried to brake-check me,” Dillon said, adding that he “just finished (Harvick) off.”

And he was disappointed that Harvick wouldn’t discuss the incident afterward.

“Can’t even face me after,” Dillon said.

SPORTS BRIEFS • Achonwa out for ND women SOUTH BEND (AP) — Notre Dame forward Natalie Achonwa is likely out for more than a month with a knee injury.

Achonwa underwent surgery last week for a small meniscus tear in her right knee, coach Muffet McGraw said Wednesday after the Irish beat California, Pa., 118-49 in an exhibition game. She is expected to be out four to six weeks, McGraw said, which would mean she would be back before the Irish enter their inaugural season in the Atlantic Coast Conference.

The 6-foot-3 senior averaged 13.8 points and 9.5 rebounds last season. McGraw said she hopes freshman Taya Reimer can help fill the void until Achonwa returns, but said the Irish need someone else to step forward to help ease the load.

“We need a 1-2 punch in the post and right now we’ve just got that one punch,” McGraw said.

The 6-3 Reimer was perfect in the exhibition game, going 11-of-11 from the floor and making all five free throw attempts. She also had six rebounds and three assists.

76ers stun defending champs PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Spencer Hawes scored 24 points and hit the winning basket late in the fourth quarter to lead the Philadelphia 76ers past the Miami Heat 114-110 on Wednesday night.

The Sixers were strong from the opening tip, they made their first 11 shots and raced to a stunning 26-4 lead. The Heat, though, erased the deficit in the third quarter and appeared to take control behind LeBron James.

Hawes hit a 3-pointer, then a driving layup for a 109-108 lead with 2:01 left.

James blew two straight chances to put Miami up, losing the ball on a drive down the middle, then missed a 6-footer on the next possession.

Shane Battier missed his seventh straight 3-point attempt, and the Sixers put the game away from the free-throw line.

Michael Carter-Williams had 22 points, 12 assists and set an NBA first-game record with nine steals for the Sixers.

Iverson retires from NBA PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Allen Iverson’s highlights played one more time on the big screen, diehard 76ers fans and Julius Erving all part of the crowd catching one more glimpse of No. 3 in his prime.

All there. All as much part of Iverson’s DNA as the rants about practice, the cornrows, the controversy. All in the past.

This was time for A.I. to say goodbye.

Iverson officially called it quits — though, in truth, it was the NBA that gave up on him — nearly four years after he played his final game.

He did it in typical A.I. flair, eschewing a suit fit for an elder statesman for a black, leather hoodie, askew black cap and a gold chain around his neck. “I always felt like it was cool being me,” Iverson said.

Iverson retired Wednesday at the Wells Fargo Center. Iverson led the Sixers to the 2001 NBA finals, won four scoring titles, and was an All-Star game fixture. Winning a championship is the lone void in a bio sheet that forever stamps him among the league’s greats.

The undersized guard with the supersized heart was a perfect match in a city that prizes authenticity and hustle as much as production. “I’m going to always be a Sixer til I die,” he said.

Chamblee sorry for insinuating that Tiger Woods cheated ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — Golf Channel analyst Brandel Chamblee said Wednesday it was mistake to compare Tiger Woods’ rules violation to his own episode of cheating on a fourth-grade math test and that he would stop writing for the website where his column appeared.

“I said Tiger Woods was cavalier about the rules. I should have stopped right there,” Chamblee said Wednesday night in his first appearance on Golf Channel since his column was posted to golf.com nearly two weeks ago.

“In comparing those incidents to my cheating episode in the fourth grade, I went too far,” he said. “Cheating involves intent. Now, I know what my intent was on that fourth-grade math test. But there’s no way that I could know with 100 percent certainty what Tiger’s intent was in any of those situations. That was my mistake.”

His comments came two days after Woods and his agent, Mark Steinberg at Excel Sports, put pressure on Golf Channel to do something.

College Soccer Britons edge Trine women ALBION, Mich — Trine University’s women’s soccer team lost to Albion 1-0 in a Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association match Wednesday afternoon.

Briton Kayla Paquette scored the lone goal of the match with 9 minutes, 25 seconds left on an assist from Morgan Button. Albion (3-14-1, 1-13-1 MIAA) outshot the Thunder 19-9.

Jamie Schnarr made eight saves in goal for Trine (2-15, 1-13).

NEW YORK (AP) — Characterizing their meeting with the NFL about their disapproval of the use of Redskins by the Washington franchise as disappointing, representatives of the Oneida Indian Nation requested a meeting with all 32 NFL owners during Super Bowl week.

They hope to persuade the other team owners and Commissioner Roger Goodell to put pressure on Redskins owner Daniel Snyder to drop the nickname they find offensive.

“Given the way the meeting transpired,” Ray Halbritter, an Oneida representative and leader of the “Change the Mascot Campaign,” said Wednesday, “it became somewhat evident they were defending the continued use of the name. Of course, we’re disappointed.”

Happy home life stops couple from going out DEAR ABBY: My boyfriend, “Mark,” and I have been together for a year. We met at work, and have dated ever since.

Several months ago we were offered a job opportunity in another state. We moved in together and are happy.

My problem is, over the past few months we have been living together, our personal relationship has come to a halt. We still care about each other deeply, but no longer do the things couples do. We don’t go out on dates or see the new city we’ve moved to.

Do you have any advice on how I can get Mark to go out and see the sights without sounding whiny or pushy? — BALTIMORE AND D.C. BECKON DEAR BALTIMORE: Tell Mark the two of you appear to have become housebound and you don’t think it’s healthy — partic-

Almanac •

DEAR DOCTOR K: I have peripheral neuropathy. I know that people with diabetes often get neuropathy, but I’m not diabetic. What else can cause this condition? And what can I do about it?

DEAR READER: Neuropathy is a medical term that means nerve damage.

The type of nerve damage that people with diabetes get involves specific nerve fibers in all nerves, particularly the nerves that travel to the legs and feet. (There are other conditions in which a single nerve leading to the legs and feet is pinched, causing pain.

An example is what is often called a “slipped disk” or “herniated disk.”

The symptoms of peripheral neuropathy include numbness and tingling. Some cases cause burning, shooting or stabbing pain. When the doctor does a physical examination and touches your feet and lower legs with

ularly because Baltimore and Washington, D.C., have many entertainment and cultural opportunities to offer.

Then create a “bucket list” and have him choose from the menu of choices that are DEAR available. If doesn’t ABBY that inspire him, ask HIM to create a Jeanne Phillips list, or start exploring on your own.

If you are successful at getting Mark out of the house, it may liven up your relationship.

But if it doesn’t, you may have more serious problems to deal with, and a heart-toheart talk with him about your entire relationship is

enough that such testing is unnecessary.

Treatment of peripheral neuropathy begins with treating the underlying cause of the condition. For example, let’s say your neuropathy is related to heavy drinking.

You should severely restrict, or better yet abstain, from alcohol. If your neuropathy is caused by hypothyroidism, treatment with replacement doses of thyroid hormone should help.

The other goal of treatment is to relieve symptoms. In particular, treatment targets pain caused by peripheral neuropathy. Several medications can help. Gabapentin, an anticonvulsant medication, is usually effective. Tricyclic antidepressants can also effectively relieve pain.
