Police Blotter • Four booked into Noble County Jail ALBION — Four people were booked into the Noble County Jail Thursday, the county sheriff’s department said. • Moises Catarino-Paulino, 25, of Fort Wayne was charged with operating a motor vehicle while never receiving a license. • Jesse Lee LaMartz, 50, of Avilla was charged with operating while intoxicated. • Johnathon Bradley Murch, 34, of Kendallville was charged with public intoxication and disorderly conduct. • Carl Thomas Sloan Jr., 27, of Dayton, Ind., was booked on a domestic battery warrant.

Avilla man charged after fight report AVILLA — An Avilla man was arrested Thursday after he attempted to break into a residence with a baseball bat. At about 2:30 p.m. Avilla police were dispatched to the Avilla Mobile Home Park on the southeast side of Avilla to investigate a report of a fight involving a baseball bat and possible gun, according to an Avilla police news release. The suspect, later identified as Jesse L. LaMartz, 50, of the 100 block of Van Scoyoc Street in Avilla, had left the scene before police arrived. The victim told police Lamartz tried to gain entry to the residence using a baseball bat and believed he was intoxicated. He described the suspect and his vehicle. Police located Lamartz driving a 2006 Dodge truck, and determined he was driving under the influence of alcohol. Lamartz was booked into the Noble County on charges of operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated and criminal mischief. Kendallville police assisted in the investigation.

State freezes official’s assets LAPORTE (AP) — The state has frozen the assets of former LaPorte County deputy auditor who it says embezzled about $150,000 in public funds. The Indiana attorney general’s office said Friday it obtained a temporary restraining order against Mary C. Ray, who is retired from her position as deputy auditor in the county auditor’s office. The state audited the auditor’s office in 2012 after state police received a report that a bank deposit bag had been stolen. Ray couldn’t be reached for comment because her home phone number was unlisted.

Joy in cycling Stroke victim ﬁnds happiness BY DENNIS NARTKER dnartker@kpcmedia.com

FORT WAYNE — “He’s happiest when he’s on his bike.” If anyone knows where East Noble graduate John Shank’s happy place is, it’s his wife, Cristy. “Riding his bike is the only thing he can do now that he did before, and that makes him happy,” she said this week in a phone interview. About three years ago, there was doubt if Shank would be capable of doing anything. This is a story about finding a smile again, a purpose in life with the support of family and friends when sudden tragedy nearly ended that life. A little more than three years ago, the 47-yearold oral and maxillofacial surgeon had a successful practice in Fort Wayne, The avid cyclist and his wife have four children, and their life together was filled with keeping up with their kids’ school activities and recreational pursuits, tending to the horses at their Fort Wayne-area home and family vacations. Their oldest son, Ben, is a sophomore at Wabash College studying economics. Their 18-year-old daughter, Elizabeth, is attending Baylor University in Texas

on an equestrian scholarship. Son Dan is a freshman at Canterbury, and son Will is a fifth-grader at Canterbury. That all changed July 9, 2010, while the Shanks were attending a horse show at the Olympic Horse Park in Atlanta, Ga. “John said he wasn’t feeling right. He said he thought his electrolytes were off,” said Cristy. They were in their recreational vehicle when he suffered a massive stroke. He was taken to a hospital, where doctors determined Shank had a tear in an artery and the blood clot went to his brain, blocking the blood flow. He survived, but with severe disabilities. He no longer could speak, read, write or drive. The stroke reduced his vision in both eyes, and he barely can move his right hand and leg. He suffers from seizures. He has physical and speech therapy four times a week, tasks that are challenging but which Shank enjoys because it’s something he can do, said his wife. He walks without a cane, and can dress and feed himself. “John communicates with gestures,” she said. “People don’t understand that with a severe brain injury like this, he may look good on the

outside, but part of his brain is not functioning.” Shank grew up in Kendallville, the son of Dr. John and Peg Shank. His father had a dental practice in Kendallville for 33 years before retiring in 2000. Shank graduated from East Noble High School in 1985, then from Indiana University Dental School. Becoming a family dentist like his father was not Shank’s goal. He studied five more years to be an oral surgeon specializing in the treatment of diseases, injuries and defects in the mouth, face and jaw. He built up a successful practice and became an avid cyclist. The stroke changed all that. About nine months ago John Bormann, a fellow doctor, cyclist and friend, visited the Shanks and saw John sitting on the couch watching TV. He knew he had to get his friend off the couch and active again. Bormann and several friends bought him a recumbent bicycle. On a recumbent, the rider sits in a reclining position with his weight distributed comfortably over a larger area. The rider pedals at the front. He didn’t like the bike. Shank’s family bought him a high-end recumbent with three rather than two wheels. Cristy encouraged

Regional Roundup • ‘Dancing’ gig cancels Nye’s Fort Wayne talk FORT WAYNE — Bill Nye’s selection as a competitor on the new season of ABC’s “Dancing with the Stars” tripped up plans for him to speak next week as part of Indiana University-Purdue University Fort Wayne’s Omnibus Lecture Series. In an announcement Thursday, the university said the short time frame between Nye’s scheduled Thursday lecture and the Sept. 16 premiere of “Dancing with the Stars” was the reason for the cancellation. Nye was the host of the “Bill Nye the Science Guy” syndicated television series. His Omnibus lecture was titled, “Hey, Earthings, Let’s Change the World.”

Arrest made in Elkhart double homicide ELKHART —A suspect has been arrested in connection with a shooting that left two at an Elkhart convenience store dead Thursday, according to news

reports. The Elkhart Truth reports Kevin Moore, 28, of Elkhart, was arrested on a preliminary charge of murder. Police had said Thursday they were looking for two or more suspects. Two employees at Saleh’s Market — Jagtar Bhatti, 55, and Pawan Singh, 20 — were pronounced dead at the scene. A part-time worker who had been in the kitchen at the convenience store discovered that the two men had been shot and called 911 for help.

Father of 10 killed ANDERSON (AP) — Relatives and friends of a central Indiana man killed in a head-on collision are struggling to console his grieving wife and care for the couple’s children. Thirty-seven-year-old Oscar Cardenas was one of two men killed in Wednesday’s crash that devastated his large, close-knit family. The sister of Cardenas’ wife told The Herald Bulletin that friends and family are helping care for the couple’s eight children to get to school and feed

them. She said Cardenas also has two other children from a previous marriage.

IU sets main campus enrollment records BLOOMINGTON (AP) — Indiana University says it has set a system-wide enrollment record with this fall, with its main campus in Bloomington and three of its regional campuses topping their previous enrollment marks. IU officials say some 102,600 college students are enrolled at the seven campuses it runs, along with some 8,000 IU students at the IndianaPurdue Fort Wayne campus that Purdue University oversees. Nearly 4,500 high school students are also taking Advanced College Project courses through IU Bloomington. IU reports a record number of students at its regional campuses in Richmond, Kokomo and Gary. The largest campuses are Bloomington with 42,327 students and IUPUI in Indianapolis with 30,488 students.

her husband to get busy living, to try the bike despite his disabilities and fear of seizures. That’s what he did. Shank started riding with Bormann and other cyclists. Adjustments were necessary. Friends designed a chain guard to protect his right leg from rubbing on the chain. His right hand was so weak, he couldn’t grip the handle bar, so his friends used Velcro to secure his hand. With each training session, his confidence grew. Shank joined cyclists for rides of 40 and more miles. His seizures decreased from once a week to one every couple of months, according to Cristy. His smile is back. He recently returned from a

Museum to honor World War II veterans SOUTH BEND (AP) — Jim Baize was just 17 when the Navy landing craft he was steering toward Iwo Jima was struck by a mortar in 1945, killing 38 Marines and his three crewmembers — everyone on board but him. “I was the only man that came out of that boat alive,” the now 86-year-old World War II veteran recalled. “A Marine pulled me up on the beach. I was pretty beat up. Part of my life jacket was gone. Part of my helmet was gone. My back was banged up pretty bad and I had some guts down my back and neck. They got a corpsman over and they fixed me enough.” A Marine helped Baize gather a gun, a helmet, a canteen and some other material from some of the dead on the beach. And he joined the Marines in the fierce fighting against the Japanese in a battle for the island. “I didn’t have any other choice,” he said.

Baize, who lied about his age when he enlisted at age 15, is among the more than 100 World War II veterans expected this weekend at an event honoring military veterans at the Indiana Military Museum in Vincennes, about 50 miles north of Evansville. In the past five years, the largest number of World War II veterans who have attended was about 40, said Jim Osborne, the museum’s founder and curator. But this year, he is expecting more than 100 after receiving numerous inquiries to an ad placed in an American Legion magazine by the Vincennes/Knox County Convention & Visitor’s Bureau. “We’ve gotten calls from all over the place,” he said. “We don’t know for sure how many veterans will show up, but we certainly know we’re going to have a much larger number of World War II vets than we have before.”

Zimmerman’s wife demanding life insurance policy SANFORD, Fla. (AP) — George Zimmerman’s wife is asking that he pay for a permanent life insurance policy with her named as the beneficiary, according to a divorce petition made public Friday. Shellie Zimmerman said in the petition that her husband should pay the premiums on the policy since he “has the financial ability to obtain such life insurance at reasonable rates.” She also asked for custody of the couple’s 2-year-old Rottweiler, Oso, and 8-year-old Leroy, a mixed-breed dog. They have no children. Shellie Zimmerman, 26, is seeking an equal distribution of their checking accounts, trusts, partnerships and any unknown assets, and asked that a judge prevent him from selling off any property. Among the unknown assets is any money George Zimmerman may get from a defamation lawsuit he has filed against NBC. The couple, who have been married since November 2007, separated a month after Zimmerman was acquitted in July of any crime for fatally shooting 17-year-old Trayvon Martin in February 2012. The Zimmermans aren’t living together as husband and wife, said the petition, which suggested Shellie may seek legal fees from her husband for the divorce. “The marriage between the parties is irretrievably broken,” the petition said. In an interview with ABC’s “Good Morning America” that aired Friday, Zimmerman said her husband left her with “a bunch of pieces of broken glass” after the acquittal.

Americans told to leave Lebanon

First lady says her program against obesity working WASHINGTON (AP) — Michelle Obama said Friday that her anti-childhood obesity campaign is creating a “cultural shift” in how Americans live and eat, and is beginning to have a positive influence on children’s health. As an example, she cited something she said she couldn’t imagine when the “Let’s Move” program was launched nearly four years ago: television commercials pitching fast-food breakfast sandwiches made with healthier egg whites instead of whole eggs. But the first lady said more work is needed to solve the childhood obesity problem. “Make no mistake about it, we are changing the conversation in this country,” Mrs. Obama said at a back-to-school event at a District of Columbia elementary school. “We are creating a cultural shift in how we live and eat and our efforts are beginning to have a real impact on our children’s lives.” “But I also want to be very clear. While we’re finally beginning to make some progress, we still have a very long way to go before we solve this problem,” she said.

Pancho the Pelican walks along a street in Havana, Cuba, Thursday. The wayward seabird has become the toast of 23rd Street, a bustling Havana thoroughfare where Pancho waddles down the sidewalk.

Pelican takes over Havana HAVANA (AP) — Pancho the Pelican apparently prefers the company of humans to his own kind, and the grit of the big city to a life spent soaring through the breeze above the Caribbean Sea. The wayward seabird has become the toast of 23rd Street, a bustling Havana thoroughfare where the 2-foot-tall Pancho waddles down the sidewalk, wings spread and beak agape, as delighted children point and smoky 1950s Chevrolets rumble past. He’s on a first-name basis with neighbors who’ve come to see him as one of their own. Paperboys greet him each morning with cries of “Panchoooooo, the paaaaaaper’s here!” “When I saw him, it was love at first sight,” said Magela Guerrero, Pancho’s 32-year-old adopted “mom,” of whom he’s fiercely

protective. The bird came into her family’s life in 2011 when a neighbor fishing along Havana’s Malecon seawall found Pancho near death, practically featherless and without any appetite. Knowing that Guerrero takes in animals, the neighbor brought the pelican to her door. The bird is a 3-yearold Pelecanus occidentalis occidentalis, or Caribbean brown pelican, whose habitat ranges from the southern United States to the Brazilian Amazon. A veterinarian prescribed a regimen of medicine and curative creams, and Guerrero nursed him through what seemed an unlikely recovery. Pancho’s plumage has long since recovered its silky brown luster and he’s strong enough to flap his wings vigorously, but

against expectations he never rejoined his brothers and sisters at sea. “It’s been like this for a year and a half,” said Guerrero, a homemaker and mother of a 13-year-old son. She repeatedly tried to reintroduce Pancho into the wild down at the Malecon, but he ignored other pelicans flying past. He might enjoy a dip in the sea and take flight briefly, but would always alight at her side. When she went to leave, he simply followed her on foot back to 23rd Street. Guerrero said Pancho frequently accompanies her on walks and responds when she calls his name, even obeying commands to jump up on park benches. He also has a possessive streak, rubbing her ears with his long beak — and jabbing the beak at others who approach her.

Arizona woman given bail after 20 years on death row PHOENIX (AP) — An Arizona woman who has spent more than two decades on death row awaited her release Friday, a day after a judge ruled that there was no direct evidence linking her to her son’s death other than a purported confession to a detective whose honesty has been questioned. Debra Milke has not been exonerated, but a judge granted her a $250,000 bond Thursday, meaning she could go free while preparing for a new trial in the case that made her one of Arizona’s most reviled inmates.

Milke was convicted in the death of her 4-yearold son, Christopher, who was allegedly killed for a $5,000 insurance payout. His mother was accused of dressing the boy in his favorite outfit in December 1989 and telling him he was going to see Santa Claus at a mall before handing him over to two men who took the child into the desert and shot him. She has been imprisoned since 1990. Sheriff Joe Arpaio said Milke would probably be released Friday. But the exact timing remained unclear at midday.

A defense lawyer told the judge last week that Milke would be living in a Phoenix-area home purchased by supporters if she is released. Milke, whose mother was a German who married a U.S. Air Force military policeman in Berlin in the early 1960s, has drawn strong support from citizens of that nation, which has no death penalty. Frankie Aue, a former Berlin resident who now lives in Phoenix, runs a website for Milke supporters and has attended recent court hearings.

Shepherd gored by elk MOAB, Utah (AP) — A wild bull elk gored a shepherd in the mountains in eastern Utah, puncturing one of the man’s lungs, knocking him unconscious and forcing him to walk several miles for help. Sheepherder Hugo Macha, 31, was in good condition in a Grand Junction, Colo., hospital Friday, three days after the rare attack in the La Sal Mountains. “He was already

worrying about his sheep,” said Polly Hill, co-owner of the 1,000 sheep Macha tends, in an interview with The Salt Lake Tribune. “The doctor said he was lucky because the way the lung was punctured it kept it from collapsing.” Macha, who is from Peru, told rescuers that he’d been sitting on the ground and leaning against a tree Tuesday evening when the elk appeared and started heading toward him.

BEIRUT (AP) — The State Department ordered all nonessential U.S. personnel Friday to leave Lebanon, reflecting fears that an American-led strike on neighboring Syria would unleash more bloodshed in this already fragile nation. The Lebanese government’s top security body held an emergency meeting and the Shiite militant group Hezbollah put its fighters on high alert. Lebanon and Syria share a complicated history and a web of political and sectarian ties and rivalries. The uprising against President Bashar Assad has intensified divisions among Lebanese religious groups as well as polarization among those who support him and those backing the rebels fighting to topple him. Lebanon has become completely consumed by the civil war next door. Car bombings, rockets, kidnappings and sectarian clashes — all related to the conflict — have become increasingly common in recent months. Hezbollah, a staunch ally of the Syrian regime, has sent its fighters to back Assad’s forces against the rebels and the militant group’s leader, Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah, has suggested he would to do everything it takes to save the regime. Adding to the jitters, the U.S. said it had instructed its nonessential staff to leave Beirut and urged private American citizens to get out of Lebanon. The step had been under consideration since last week, when President Barack Obama said he was contemplating military action against the Syrian government for its alleged chemical weapons attack last month that killed hundreds near Damascus. “Lebanese government authorities are not able to guarantee protection for citizens or visitors to the country should violence erupt suddenly. Access to borders, airports, roads, and seaports can be interrupted with little or no warning,” a State Department statement said. In a separate advisory for Turkey, the State Department announced it would allow personnel at the Adana consulate — the closest diplomatic post to Syria — to leave their posts. It recommended that U.S. citizens defer nonessential travel to southeastern Turkey. The department also renewed its travel warnings

for Iraq and Pakistan, advising Americans of continuing security concerns in those two countries. Both have been the subject of long-standing travel warnings. About 150 people from several pro-Syrian political groups gathered for a peaceful protest near the U.S. Embassy compound north of Beirut, pledging larger rallies in case of a U.S. attack in Syria. Some of them had painted their hands red, symbolizing blood. “The American Embassy is an operations room for the war on Syria,” read one banner. “Your rockets and fleets do not scare us,” read another. Dozens of riot police in full gear stood on guard, confining the protesters to a square on a road leading to the heavily fortified embassy in the suburb of Awkar. The small protest reflected the potential for a surge in violence in case of military action, not just in Lebanon but across the region. Iranian-backed Shiite militias in Iraq threatened to retaliate against Washington’s interests inside Iraq if the U.S. goes ahead with strikes against Syria, according to Iraqi security officials and militants themselves. Cleric Wathiq al-Batat, who leads the Mukhtar Army, a shadowy Iranianbacked militia in Iraq, said his forces are preparing for a strong reaction against the interests of the U.S. and other countries that take part in any Syria strike. He claimed that militants have selected hundreds of potential targets, which could include both official American sites and companies “associated with the Americans.” “There is a good level of coordination with Iran on this issue and I cannot reveal more. But I can say that there will be a strong response,” he told The Associated Press. “Each armed group will have duties to carry out.” The worst-case scenario for Lebanon would be if Hezbollah, also a close ally of Iran, were to retaliate by launching a barrage of rockets at U.S. ally Israel. Such a move would be almost certain to trigger a response by Israel that would leave a trail of destruction in its wake. The group has mobilized its fighters in southern Lebanon, redeploying and putting thousands of its fighters on high alert.

Boston kids get free school meals BOSTON (AP) — Some students toted lunchboxes to the first day of school in Boston this week, but district administrators are expecting that could become a more unusual sight as parents learn about a federal program that is now providing all public school students in the city with free breakfast and lunch. The nation’s oldest school system has joined a program of the U.S. Department of Agriculture that has spread to 10 states and the District of Columbia that offers students two free meals every school day, whether or not their families can afford them. “It’s one less weight and one less burden for parents,” said Joshua Rivera, whose son is a second-grader at the Maurice J. Tobin School in Boston’s Roxbury section. Known as Community Eligibility Option, the program is part of the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010. For schools to qualify, federal officials said, more than 40 percent of students have to be

getting food stamps or aid through certain other federal assistance programs. Besides easing hunger, school officials said, the program eliminates the expense and time of handling paperwork for students who qualify for reduced or free meals and also helps erase a stigma that plagued some students from poor families. With the program’s adoption in Boston, education officials said, the city joins schools in cities including Grand Rapids, Mich., Atlanta and Washington, D.C., in a program that will be available across the country starting in the 2014-2015 school year. Efrain Toledano, principal of the Tobin School in Boston, said he expects the program will cut down on potential disruptions at the K-8 school by easing hunger pangs that could be linked to classroom misbehavior. “We know that calm stomachs means calm students who are ready to learn in classrooms,” he said

WASHINGTON (AP) — The government is aware of no credible or specific information that points to any terror plot tied to the anniversary of the September 2001 attacks, according to a new confidential threat assessment from the FBI and Homeland Security Department obtained by The Associated Press. The new assessment, dated Thursday, said that intelligence agencies remain concerned that al-Qaida and its affiliates are committed to carrying out attacks on Western targets. But it said there was no information pointing to any known plot. The bulletin made no mention of Syria, even as President Barack Obama sought congressional approval to use military force against the Syrian government. Four Americans were killed in an attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya, on last year’s anniversary. Three others were killed and more than 260 others were injured when two men set off bombs near the finish line of the popular Boston Marathon in April. There was no specific or credible intelligence about those attacks, either. The terror threat to the U.S. is different than it was 12 years ago. In 2001, there was credible intelligence about a terror plot, but that information wasn’t shared with the right people. Today, the threat is more diffuse. Cyberattacks threaten to disrupt major U.S. operations in the government and the private sector. Lone actors represent another threat — one or two people who are not directly affiliated with al-Qaida but who subscribe to the terror group’s ideology and want to strike out because they disagree with U.S. policies. Today, officials are concerned about retaliatory strikes if Obama moves

forward with plans to use military force against Syrian President Bashar Assad’s regime, which the administration condemns for the death of 1,429 in a chemical weapons attack on Aug. 21 near Damascus. Assad’s government blames the episode on rebels who have been seeking to overthrow his government. Iraqi officials and militant groups have said that Iranianbacked Shiite militias are threatening to retaliate against American interests inside Iraq if the U.S. goes ahead with strikes, as Tehran is a close ally of Assad. The FBI has been reviewing old case files involving Hezbollah and Iran’s Quds Force, reaching out to its sources to see whether they know anything new, a law enforcement official said. The official offered few details about the outreach and spoke on condition of anonymity because the official did not want to publicize the bureau’s investigative strategies. In its intelligence bulletin, the FBI and Homeland Security Department reminded law enforcement of activity that could indicate a planning for an attack, such as surveillance and questions about security operations. They also provided tips to avoid Internet denial of service attacks, such as a warning Aug. 27 from a Tunisian hacker group. The group, called “Tunisian—Hackers II” threatened a 10-day denial of service attack against U.S. banks starting Sept. 1. By Sept. 5, law enforcement had seen no evidence that the hacker group carried through with the plan, the bulletin said. Lee Hamilton, the former Democratic congressman from Indiana who co-chaired the 9/11 Commission report, said Americans should be reassured to know that there is no credible or specific information about a terror attack.

he Denver Post warns, “Milk, food prices could rise if Congress fails to act.” Congress is working on a farm bill, which, among other things, will set limits on how high or low milk prices can be in different regions of the country. Politicians from both parties like to meddle in agriculture. When the Heritage Foundation told Republicans not to pass any farm bill, “conservative” politicians banned Heritage from their weekly meetings. But why should politicians be involved in agriculture? Why should they set food prices, any more than they set the price of books or staplers? The market decides most prices, so we don’t have to wait with bated breath for politicians to make up their minds. In a normal market, sellers charge the highest price their customers will pay — and then lower the price when they lose customers to sellers who charge less. Competition keeps prices low, not generosity or warm-heartedness. Or government. The price of milk, on the other hand, is decided by regulators, using complicated formulas. They set one price for wholesale milk used to produce “fluid” products and another for milk used in making cheese. It’s a ridiculous game of catch-up, in which the regulated prices never change as fast and ciently as they would JOHN effi in a market, one buyer and at a time. STOSSEL seller Next week, California will hold public hearings about milk price negotiations, as if more arguing will reveal the “correct” price. The agricultural news site Agri-View reports that dairy farmers filed a petition with the California Department of Food and Agriculture, demanding it implement an earlier, massive milk-price compact agreed to by cheesemakers and legislators. Under the agreement, cheese processors must kick in an additional $110 million to a statewide pool of money used to pay dairy farmers, who are upset that they’ve been paid less than what farmers get in surrounding states. Rob Vandenheuvel of the state’s Milk Producers Council says, “Government has the responsibility to keep us in line with what the rest of the country is making, and they’re not doing it. It gives us no choice but to spend money on lawyers.” Great. How many lawyers does it take to produce a gallon of milk? The dairy farmers say some dairy farms lose money, which proves milk prices are too low. But cheesemakers say they can barely stay in business, proving milk prices are too high. Why is any of this the legislature’s business? It shouldn’t be. Prices should be decided by buyers and sellers. Prices are not just money. They’re information. Rising prices tell farmers to produce more; that increases supply and prices go back down. Falling prices tell producers to invest in other products. This system works well for plums, peaches, cars and most everything we buy. But bureaucrats and lobbyists say milk is “special.” Vandenheuvel says cows can’t be subject to market demand because “there are several years of lead time between when you decide to buy a cow and when that cow produces milk.” The CDFA agrees because: “Milk is a perishable product and must be harvested daily,” and “Milk continues to be viewed as a necessary food item, particularly for children.”

Education largest user of Hoosier resources BY STATE REP. BEN SMALTZ

Every day over a million K-12 students wake up and head to one of our Hoosier schools. Across the state in private, public and home schools, children spend years mastering mathematics, reading, English, history, science, literature and technology, before moving on to more specialized training in their chosen fields. Thousands of men and women, our teachers, meet them to share the knowledge they have spent their lives learning. These children and young adults are the future leaders of our state and country. Our future and the future of our civilization depend on them, and I place great value in our educational system to prepare them for the challenges that await them. This year, the General Assembly placed a great emphasis on education, and I was privileged to be an active participant in the work that was accomplished. This past session, numerous bills related to education in one way or another. I co-authored House Enrolled Act 1002, which developed the Indiana Career Council. Made up of many leaders in education and state government from across the state, the ICC comes together to discuss how the state’s education, job skills development and career training system work together, monitor the effectiveness of legislation enacted in the past and suggest ways for further improve-

ment. I supported bills that promote school safety like Senate Enrolled Act 1 helping schools hire fulltime school resource officers and develop safety plans. We also worked hard on legislation to aid veterans in their school tuition and assist them in the transition from combat duty to college admission. We had the opportunity to pass legislation designed to identify students in need of remediation before they graduate BEN and help them discover any SMALTZ inadequacies that must be addressed in order to achieve success in their careers. We placed a pause on the replacement of our Indiana Standards with Common Core to give the General Assembly, State Board of Education and Office of Management and Budget time to hear public input and identify the impact of adopting new standards. This piece of legislation also required the SBOE to adopt new methods for determining how schools earn their grades so that grades are based on growth and proficiency rather than peer-based growth. This will create the integrity that the A-F system must have. Education is, by far, the largest user of

•

our state’s resources. When you consider K-12 and post-secondary, it accounts for 63 percent of our total biannual budget. As such a significant part of our state operations, it demands our continued vigilance and efforts to constantly make improvements for our students and teachers. Of all the faithful teachers who have served the Hoosier state over the years, state Rep. Phyllis Pond, R-New Haven, is on the forefront of my mind. Rep. Pond, a former kindergarten teacher who tirelessly served her students and community, has decided to resign from her position as a state representative due to her recent diagnosis of pulmonary fibrosis. Rep. Pond started her career in a time when politics was male dominated and has gone on to have a long tenure of success. The House of Representatives will miss her greatly, as she has been a phenomenal example of servant leadership. She truly perfected the balance between serving her district and her state as a whole, and the General Assembly will not be the same without her. As always, please feel free to contact me at h52@iga.in.gov with any comments, concerns or your ideas on how we can build a better, stronger Indiana. REP. BEN SMALTZ, R-AUBURN, represents all of DeKalb County and portions of Steuben and Allen counties.

A traveling poet comes waltzing in It was going to be a quiet evening except for a late supper at Karen’s. How lovely, I thought, having the early dusk hours to myself. What to do? With my cast off (thank you Dr. Miller!) I could play the guitar or ride my bike. However, Rhon was putting new strings on my guitar and my new bike had a flat tire. I picked up the paper to see what was going on in town and there it was … a poetry reading at the Angola Carnegie Library. I almost missed it! I grabbed a few dollars from the coffer and walked down to the library. The event was to begin at 6:30, and I was fearful I would be late. I know it is not a good idea to walk in late on a poet! No one was there for the reading. I peeked into the meeting room and saw him sitting huddled over a book waiting for the crowd of folks. Within a moment Sandra joined me and we went in, just the two of us, for our poetry reading. The poet, Michael Czarnecki, took the seat in front of us and we all introduced ourselves. On his lap he had a stack of his books. Each book was bound by thick dark string. Michael closed his eyes and began to recite a poem. His voice was husky yet gentle, like a mountain stream flowing in summer. I was immediately hooked. Each poem came with a story. Doesn’t everything come with a story? His long steel gray hair covered his head along with a full beard. He reminded me a bit of Woody Guthrie and Bob Dylan. Our new online poll at kpcnews.com asks: Evidence suggests Syria’s government used banned chemical weapons to kill more than 1,000 of Syria’s people. How should the U.S. respond? The choices are: U.S. missiles should be fired from U.S. Navy ships at Syrian

Michael continued to share his work with Sandra and me for half an hour. We asked lots of questions and he told us about himself. He has been a full-time poet for more than 20 years. He lives with his wife in upstate New York on 50 acres on a homestead. A few years ago Michael traveled across America on Route 20 and printed his LOU ANN journal from that trip full of stories and poetry. (I knew HOMANI would buy that one!) He is now traveling across SAYLOR America sharing his poetry in all of the lower 48 states. Angola was his only stop in Indiana. I was curious as to what would have happened had we not shown up for the reading. He said, “I would just drive to Lake Michigan and recite poetry to the lake.” I thought that was a wonderful idea. I had to ask about his money, I had to. He does not own a credit card, but relies on the kindness of folks to buy his books and barter for food and places to stay. I pulled out my money and bought one of each book. “Did you have supper yet?” I asked. He did not, so I invited him to Karen’s for the late supper. I knew she wouldn’t mind. She knows me. I mean some folks bring home cats and dogs, but I bring

home stray hungry artists. He followed me the few blocks. Luckily I arrived before he did and I asked Karen to add another plate. Virginia was there along with the boys and they immediately added another place setting, asking me who was coming to dinner. “A poet,” I said smiling. Just then Michael walked in carrying poetry books for the boys, his barter for supper. Dinner was pork roast and fresh vegetables. I brought a peach cobbler and we opened a couple bottles of wine. He recited poetry for us at the table. We told in tandem a few Robert Frost poems. It was as if we had rehearsed the piece. The boys were fascinated by this nomad who was telling us about his life and his work. He asked the boys what they liked to do. Matthew immediately said, “Football!” He turned to Jonah. With his gaze looking out into space Jonah said without missing a beat, “I like to meditate.” This certainly raised all of our curiosity as we just waited for what he would say next. “I meditate in the yard at dusk and sometimes into the dark.” Michael asked him what he thought about during those times. “Oh, I just think,” he said. Late night hours prevailed. Michael autographed the books for the boys and we all said farewell. He kissed me on the cheek before he left. Don’t tell me real hippies don’t exist. I just met one.

Poll says House opposes action WASHINGTON (AP) — Suggesting an uphill fight for President Barack Obama, House members staking out positions are either opposed to or leaning against his plan for a U.S. military strike against Syria by more than a 6-1 margin, a survey by The Associated Press shows. The Senate is more evenly divided ahead of its vote next week. Still, the situation is very fluid. Nearly half of the 433-member House and a third of the 100-member Senate remain undecided.

By their statements or those of aides, only 30 members of the Republican-led House support intervention or are leaning in favor of authorizing the president to use force against Syrian President Bashar Assad’s government in response to a chemical weapons attack last month. Some 192 House members outright oppose U.S. involvement or are leaning against authorization, according to the AP survey. The situation in the Democrat-controlled

Senate is better for Obama but hardly conclusive ahead of a potential vote next week. The AP survey showed those who support or are leaning in favor of military action holding a slight 34-32 advantage over those opposed or leaning against it. Complicating the effort in the Senate is the possibility that a three-fifths majority may be required. Republican Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky says he is going to filibuster.

virus can slip into a computer virtually undetected. Once loaded onto a machine, the virus may sit quietly waiting to spring. And once the virus unleashes itself, it may take professional help to remove, at an average cost of $50 to $150. Local experts say no antivirus program seems to work, and the only protection seems to be Malwarebytes, a free program that must be run almost daily. But experts say nothing is 100 percent effective against Moneypak — the key is to only go to trusted websites, and even those can be dangerous. To make matters worse, the virus appears to be constantly evolving. The moment it appears software engineers and technicians have figured out a way to block the virus from infecting machines, its makers alter the virus’ programming to bypass the newest security steps and continue to wreak havoc on computers. Steve Liechty of LaGrange found his computer infected last summer. Liechty was able to access the Internet and use an online help program to remove the virus from his computer, but that doorway appears to be closed by newer versions of the Moneypak virus. Programs designed to keep computers safe from

the virus aren’t always effective against Moneypak because it avoids detection by making it the first thing the computer loads, then blocks the antivirus software. The virus can find its way into a machine in a number of different ways, such as attaching itself to a legitimate email or video. It’s also believed the virus sometimes simply can find and load itself onto a computer hooked to the Internet. Reid said it keeps his staff at the computer shop jumping. He said just about the time his shop gets a good handle on what they need to do to contain and remove the virus from computers, a new variant of the virus appears, and they have to figure out what has changed. He added that it can sometimes take as much as a week for major software security firms to

produce a new tool that he and other computer technicians need to completely remove the virus. One problem with the virus is it digs deeply into the infected computer, making it difficult for the average home computer user to remove. It can affect a machine’s registry, and creates difficulty in finding rootkits — software that can compromise the operating system and hide malicious processes from detection — on a computer’s hard drive. Sometimes, the only cure is for a technician to examine a machine’s programming and manually remove the infected files. Sometimes, Reid admitted, the infection is so deeply embedded into a machine and so cleverly hidden, the computer’s hard drive has to be erased to remove the virus.

FOUNTAIN: Project could spur interest in downtown FROM PAGE A1

said. The courthouse square society wanted to work to improve the grounds at the courthouse and create an attraction that would spur new interest and investment in downtown Albion, Kramer said. The new fountain was conceived with that goal in mind. The preservation society asked for help from the Noble County Commissioners, who agreed to

provide 4/5 of the money, Shellman said. The Albion Redevelopment Commission used Tax Increment Financing funds to provide the rest. Commissioner Chad Kline said the commissioners had already committed to maintaining and upgrading the courthouse square when the request came. The 2012 commissioners had agreed to have the courthouse tuck-pointed,

and this year’s commissioners have approved sidewalk upgrades, Kline said. Becker said tulips will be planted around the fountain this fall so they will bloom in the spring, with petunias and other annuals to keep it colorful throughout the flower season. “I think this is going to be a treasure and a highlight of the courthouse square for many years to come,” Kramer said.

ALBION — Big plays led to big moments Friday night as Lakeland defeated Central Noble 51-14 in a Northeast Corner Conference football game. Both teams had big plays, but none more so than Lakeland senior quarterback William Kelly’s 74-yard pass to fellow senior Joel Miller early in the first quarter. “We call it a go route,” Kelly said, “and thankfully Miller has a lot of speed and we take advantage of that. I dropped back, saw him, and he beat the corner.” That’s all it took for Miller to start the beginning of the Lakers’ night. Kelly finished the night with 143 yards and three touchdowns on 9-of-16 passing. On the following Central Noble possession, sophomore quarterback Shaw Smith fumbled the ball CHAD KLINE away at the Cougars’ 12-yard line. East Noble’s Grey Fox dives foward for a ﬁrst quarter of Friday night’s conference game From there, it only took two plays down following a pass reception in the ﬁrst against Homestead in Kendallville. for Lakeland to find the end zone once more as Kelly rolled out to his right and found a wide-open Quinten Bender to put the Lakers up 14-0 with 1 minute, 53 seconds left in the first quarter.

Chargers fall down early, lose to Garrett BY BOB BUTTGEN bbuttgen@kpcmedia.com

LIGONIER — Garrett’s football team acted like a well-oiled machine for most of the night as the Railroaders held off West Noble for a hard-fought 26-12 victory Friday night in Ligonier. The Railroaders’ offense clicked when it needed to, and more importantly the Garrett defense shut down the Charger offense for all but a few minutes in the second half. Garrett converted two turnovers into touchdowns to lead 13-0 at the end of the first quarter. Garrett’s defense made several big stops on the night to keep the Chargers in check. “Jumping out quickly like we did sure did help,” said Garrett coach Chris DePew after the game. “And we made some big plays when we had to, on both sides of the ball.” The Railroaders intercepted West Noble quarterback Landon

Twelve plays later, Follett hit Bo Davis on an 18-yard touchdown pass. On the kickoff, Garrett squibbed the ball toward the sideline and the Chargers were unable to get a handle on it, allowing the Railroaders to take possession at the West Noble 28. Four plays later, Bryit Sumner ran into the endzone from 28 yards out for a 13-0 score. Garrett’s point-after kick was blocked. In the second quarter. Davis intercepted a Stover pass to give his team the ball on the Garrett 18-yard line. The Railroaders wasted no time in moving the ball downfield and scored on a 25-yard keeper by Follett with 5:13 on the clock. The Chargers stopped Garrett’s point-after run for a 19-0 score at halftime. SEE CHARGERS, PAGE B2

Early on, it looked like East Noble was going to run away. The Knights took the opening drive 54 yards before Brandon Mable capitalized with a one-yard touchdown run just more than four minutes into the game. Jake Peterson picked up a Spartan fumble four plays into the ensuing series to give the Knights the ball again. Once again Mable found paydirt, this time from seven yards out, and Jared Teders converted the PAT for a 14-0 East Noble lead with four minutes left in the quarter. The Knights did not pick up any steam from then on, though, as they

were forced to throw the ball. Bryce Wolfe tossed for 130 yards on 15-of-24 attempts, but two costly interceptions killed East Noble drives. Gunnar Goebel intercepted a Wolfe pass inside one minute to secure the Homestead victory. Mable finished the game with 94 yards on the ground with his two scores. East Noble tallied 113 rushing yards as a team. “All the little things finally added up. We had opportunities. We are not a prolific passing team and we were forced to throw the ball tonight. We have to get better at that part of our offense in the next few weeks,” Amstutz said.

East Noble’s Brandon Mable, center, drives in to the end-zone past two Homestead defenders during the ﬁrst quarter of Friday night’s conference game in Kendallville. The Knights fell 17-14.

doubles match against West Noble Friday afternoon in Ligonier.

Knights win match at West Noble LIGONIER — In a matchup of cross-county rivals Friday, East Noble’s boys tennis team defeated West Noble 4-1. East Noble won all but the No. 1 doubles match in the nonconference dual to go to 3-1 on the season. West Noble went to 4-4 after winning its last two matches. Winners for the Knights were Austin Mohamdelai, Evan Hart and Aaron Dills in singles and at No. 2 doubles with the team of Carl Kramer

Williams, Azarenka reach U.S. Open NEW YORK (AP) — At the end, and only at the very end, did Serena Williams face anything resembling a challenge in her U.S. Open semifinal. Six times, Williams was a single point from winning. Six times, she failed to come through. All that did, of course, was delay the inevitable Friday. On match point No. 7, Williams delivered a 107 mph service winner, then let out two shouts,

a mixture of relief and rejoicing after a 6-0, 6-3 victory over fifth-seeded Li Na of China that put the defending champion back in the final at Flushing Meadows. “I got tight, which happens sometimes. I just needed to relax, and then when I did relax, she played some good points,” said the No. 1-ranked Williams, who will face No. 2 Victoria Azarenka of Belarus on Sunday in a rematch of last year’s final.

“But it was a good experience going into the next round,” Williams added. “If I even get a match point, I’ll be ready to stay calm and just to stay focused and relaxed.” Pursuing a fifth U.S. Open championship, and 17th Grand Slam title overall, Williams has been so dominant, so untouchable, during these two weeks that the only question each time out was how long it would take her to win, not whether she would.

Phillies outduel Braves; Tigers score 16-2 victory PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Cody Asche hit a two-run homer in the seventh inning, and Philadelphia ace Cliff Lee outdueled fellow left-hander Mike Minor for a 2-1 victory. Lee (12-6) allowed one run on Andrelton Simmons’ leadoff homer in the third while striking out 10 in eight innings. He gave up two hits and walked none. Jonathan Papelbon finished for his 25th save in 31 chances. Asche’s homer came on the first pitch he saw from Minor in the seventh. In his first time facing the Phillies this season, Minor (13-6) allowed four hits in seven innings, striking out nine and walking one. CUBS 8, BREWERS 5 Rookie Junior Lake hit his first career grand slam in Chicago’s five-run first inning, leading the Cubs to the victory. Lake was 2 for 4 and has five homers since being called up July 19. The Cubs and Brewers are tied for fourth place in the NL Central at 60-80. Carlos Villanueva (5-8) struck out five in 2 1-3 scoreless innings to get the win. Kevin Gregg got the final three outs for his 30th save in 35 chances. Brewers starter Kyle Lohse (9-9) allowed 11 hits and seven runs in five innings. Scooter Gennett had a pinch-hit, three-run homer in the eighth for Milwaukee. ORIOLES 4, CHISOX 0 Chris Davis hit his major

league-leading 48th home run, Scott Feldman pitched a five-hitter for his first career shutout and Baltimore beat extended Chicago’s losing streak to eight games. Davis connected in the sixth inning off John Danks to move within two homers of tying Brady Anderson for the single-season club record. The solo shot gave Davis 123 RBIs, secondmost in the majors behind Detroit’s Miguel Cabrera (130). Danny Valencia and Matt Wieters also homered for the Orioles, who began the day three games behind Tampa Bay for the final AL wild-card slot. All three long balls came off Danks (4-12). Making his 11th start since he was acquired in a trade with the Cubs on July 2, Feldman (5-4) allowed only one runner past first base. The right-hander walked one and struck out three in improving to 5-2 lifetime against the White Sox. TIGERS 16, ROYALS 2 Omar Infante set career highs with five hits and six RBIs, Andy Dirks also went 5 for 5 and Detroit pounded Kansas City. Austin Jackson drove in four runs as the Tigers finished with a seasonhigh 26 hits. Dirks, who is hitting .410 against Kansas City this season, scored four times. Infante had run-producing singles in the second, fourth and seventh innings and a three-run double in the fifth. It was more than enough support for

Anibal Sanchez (13-7), who allowed one run in seven innings while lowering his AL-best ERA to 2.61. James Shields (10-9), who was 4-0 in his previous five starts, was charged with 10 runs and 14 hits in 3 2-3 innings in his shortest start of the season. The runs and hits matched career-worst totals for the right-hander. BLUE JAYS 6, TWINS 5 R.A. Dickey pitched into the seventh inning for Toronto, and the Blue Jays hung on for a victory over Minnesota. Dickey (12-12) won his third straight start, giving up seven hits and three runs to a Twins team he was a reliever for in 2009. He struck out four and walked one. Jose Reyes reached base all four times and sparked a five-run second against Mike Pelfrey (5-11) with an RBI single. Brett Lawrie hit a two-run single and Moises Sierra hit a two-run double.in that inning. Casey Janssen gave up a home run to rookie catcher Josmil Pinto in the ninth, but closed it out for his 28th save in 30 tries on a strikeout-caught stealing double play. INDIANS 8, METS 1 Scott Kazmir struck out a season-high 12 in six innings, Nick Swisher hit a grand slam and Cleveland continued its playoff push with a win over New York. Kazmir (8-7) struck out at least one batter in each inning, including the side in the first, third and sixth.

LAKERS: Cooper scores late for Central Noble FROM PAGE B1

switch your mindset. We played much better in the third quarter.” The Laker defense did show up, getting to the quarterback six times and forcing six fumbles while holding the Cougar offense in check for the majority of the game. “Our two (defensive) ends are physical mismatches for most people we’re going to play,” Thompson said. Central Noble’s two big plays came from senior running back Garren Deck.

He had a 41-yard scamper early in the first quarter and finished with 84 yards on the ground and one touchdown. Deck had a 5-yard touchdown run with 30 seconds left in the second quarter. But the Cougars still trailed 24-7 at halftime. In the fourth quarter, Central Noble junior running back Jordan Cooper took a handoff and shifted into another gear, blazing past helpless Lakeland defenders on his way to a 65-yard touchdown run, which was the Cougars’ largest gain of the night. Cooper finished

the night with 73 rushing yards. Thompson was quick to recognize the Cougars’ potential in the future. “They are much improved. I think their coach is doing a very good job of getting those things turned around,” he said. “There has to be some kudos to them because that was a different Central Noble team that we’ve played (tonight) than in the past couple of years and that’s a good thing because that’s what makes our conference better.”

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 2013

Drought conditions on the horizon for NE Indiana WEST LAFAYETTE — Drought has crept back into part of Indiana, reflecting weeks of dry conditions following a wet winter and spring that eliminated the remnants of the devastating drought of 2012. The U.S. Drought Monitor on Thursday showed that four counties in northwest Indiana — Benton, Newton, Warren and Lake — are now in moderate drought. Until this week, nearly half of the state was abnormally dry — the

lowest level of dryness — a condition that continues in most of the central counties and some northern counties. “We were expecting moderate drought to be introduced into the state this week,” said Ken Scheeringa, associate climatologist with the Indiana State Climate office, based at Purdue University. “Rainfall has been scarce in most counties for a few weeks now. Drought conditions in Illinois were worsening and on the move eastward and

have now reached Indiana.” State Climatologist Dev Niyogi said the central portion of the state could move into moderate drought next week if that area does not get enough rain and continues to lose water. He said his office will continue to monitor the situation closely. No rain was in the forecast for the remainder of this week, but chances for rain next week were expected to be near normal, according to the climate

office. Near-normal temperatures also were forecast for that week, with above-normal temperatures the following week. Crops have been in dire need of meaningful rainfall for weeks. The U.S. Department of Agriculture reported that 80 percent of Indiana’s corn crop was in good to excellent condition in mid-July, but that has fallen to 66 percent for the week ending Aug. 31. For soybeans, 74 percent was rated good to excellent in

mid-July, compared with 62 percent now. As September approached, rain was needed within days to prevent the crops from deteriorating further. Some of that rain arrived over the Labor Day weekend, with portions of southern Indiana receiving 2 to more than 4 inches. The heaviest rains came Sept. 1, mostly in the extreme southwest and southeast. The central and northern parts of the state were not as fortunate, although some

areas received more than an inch of rain. Purdue Extension soybean specialist Shaun Casteel said the rain helped, but how much depends on the amount of rain plants received relative to their stage of development and the drought stress they were under. A half-inch might not have been enough for some stressed plants to avoid dropping their pods; more rain likely would have prevented that and helped them to fill out the seeds.

Brown stem rot showing up in Indiana Fall vegetable WEST LAFAYETTE — Soybean producers should look for sudden death syndrome, or SDS, and brown stem rot when scouting fields over the next few weeks in order to identify the fungal diseases and prevent future yield loss due to disease. Soybean fields across Indiana have started to show symptoms of SDS, and brown stem rot is another disease sometimes confused with SDS. Yield loss from the diseases can be minor or major, depending on how widespread they become — which is why identification is key. “There is no in-season management for these diseases, but it’s important to identify fields that have the diseases to prevent yield loss in future years,” said Kiersten Wise, Purdue Extension plant pathologist. “It can help to know which fields have the diseases so producers can select disease-resistant varieties for the next time the fields are planted to soybean.” Symptoms of SDS, caused by the fungus Fusarium virguliforme, aren’t typically noticed until August, even though the fungus infects plants early in the growing season during wet, cool weather. Many soybeans emerged from wet soils this spring, so Wise cautioned producers to look for SDS and brown stem rot. The diseases have similar foliar symptoms,

When scouting ﬁelds over the next few week, soybean producers should look for brown stem rot, shown above, as well as sudden death syndrome. It’s

which include yellowing or browning between the leaf veins. “You can tell the difference between SDS and brown stem rot by examining the internal tissue in the lower stem of the plant,” Wise said. “The first step is to pull up the plant and split the lower stem. With SDS you’ll see discoloration in the cortex of the stem and root. Whereas with brown stem rot you’ll see a discoloration in

the pith.” The pith of plants affected by SDS will remain white. In some instances, both diseases might be present in a plant, which can make diagnosis difficult. Identifying the diseases can help producers make good management decisions the next time a particular field goes into soybeans. “For instance, if you know a field has the disease, you can select a variety for

next year that will be less susceptible to either disease,” Wise said. “It is important to be sure if you have SDS or brown stem rot since varieties that have resistance to brown stem rot might not necessarily be resistant to SDS, and vice versa.” Each seed company has varieties rated for SDS and brown stem rot resistance, so producers should contact their local seed dealers when selecting resistant varieties.

Weather has been good for grape growers WEST LAFAYETTE — This summer’s mild temperatures and modest rainfall have been good for Indiana’s wine grapes, which could lead to more flavorful, aromatic wines, say members of the Purdue Wine Grape Team. Average temperatures in July and August were

slightly cooler than normal, conditions that allowed ripening grapes to accumulate sugar and maintain acid levels. An extraordinarily dry August also was beneficial, as heavy rainfall can cause ripened grapes to split, leading to pest damage and disease. “We’ve had really

moderate conditions, and that helps improve fruit quality,” said viticulture specialist Bruce Bordelon. “Cooler weather leads to higher sugar content and higher acidity, yielding a better balance overall. Our mid- and early-ripening varieties should do really well.” Bordelon said weather has a tremendous influence on veraison, the ripening process in which grapes transform from hard, opaque green berries into soft, translucent fruit.

The last four weeks have been almost non-stop canning at my home. Our garden certainly produced well this year, and I was a little intimidated by the amount of produce we were getting, especially since it was ELYSIA my first time canning RODGERS ever. But with some support from my motherin-law, I got the hang of it quickly and since then have put up probably close to 200 or more quarts of pickles, peaches, plums and tomatoes. I have also frozen corn, cauliflower, broccoli, cabbage slaw, green beans and countless berries. Our freezers are full of not only fruits and vegetables, but also fresh homegrown beef, chicken, rabbit, pork and duck. I am truly looking forward to enjoying the fruits of my labor this winter, but there is one last task that my husband and I need to undertake before we can let winter set in … the garden needs cleaned out. The University of Nebraska Lincoln has special broadcast segments called the Backyard Farmer, and they discussed this exact topic a couple of weeks ago. Before putting all your gardening tools away for the year, take an afternoon this fall and clean up the vegetable garden. Removing garden debris, including dead plant material and rotted vegetables, will help to reduce disease and insect problems next year. The time spent now cleaning up the garden will be well worth it next summer. Before beginning your garden cleanup, sit down and make notes of this year’s garden layout and what did or didn’t work. This will make planning a rotation schedule for next year’s garden easier. Also note

Temperature and rainfall during ripening can determine the character of future wines. “The most important time frame for fruit and wine quality is those last four weeks before harvest,” he said. “That’s when the berries go through the ripening process. The conditions during that time — especially the temperature — are what really affect wine quality, not just in terms of sugar-acid balance but flavor and aroma content as well.”

particular insect or disease problems encountered this year and which vegetable cultivars you tried. Next, tomato cages, stakes, trellises and other support materials should be pulled out of the garden, cleaned and placed in storage for winter. Remove from the garden any plants that have had insect or disease problems. Also collect any fall fruits or vegetables, including dried up “mummies.” Many insects overwinter in the garden in last season’s dead plant material. Similarly, diseased plant material remaining in the garden will serve as a source of fungal spores to re-infect next year’s vegetables. Don’t add these to the compost pile. Compost piles usually will not reach a high enough temperature to kill all pathogens, like fungal spores or bacteria. Instead discard or burn these plant residues. Crop residues from healthy plants, such as roots, leaves and stems, are a valuable source of organic matter, and will break down to improve the texture of garden soil. Plants that have not had pest problems can be cut up and put in the compost pile, or turned into the soil for added organic matter. Organic mulches, such as straw or grass clippings, can also be tilled into the soil. The leaves from your trees also are an excellent source of organic matter for the vegetable garden. After raking the leaves, scatter them over the vegetable garden and till them in. You can also use your mower to remove the leaves from your lawn and then add them to the vegetable garden. Since mowing chops the leaves into smaller pieces, they will break down faster once added to the soil of your vegetable garden. ELYSIA RODGERS is the agriculture and natural resources director for the Purdue University Cooperative Extension Service in DeKalb County.

Cover crops making a comeback Field day set for Tuesday at Triangle Farms near Howe LAGRANGE — The LaGrange County Soil and Water Conservation District, in cooperation with USDA’s Natural Resources Conservation Service and the Indiana State Department of Agriculture, is holding a cover crop field day on Tuesday. The event will take place from 2-4 p.m. at Triangle Farms, east of Howe at S.R. 120 and a quarter-mile north on C.R. 475E. Cover crops are a recently rediscovered conservation practice. Seventy-five years ago, crop fields and gardens regularly were planted with rye, ryegrass, wheat or oats to cover the cultivated ground after the regular crop had been harvested. The practice generally fell into disuse in the 1970s and ’80s, when crop land was generally left fallow in the off season. Cover crops recently made a resurgence because of their benefits, which include improved weed control, nutrient scavenging that reduces the need for applied fertilizers, reduced soil compaction and reduced or eliminated topsoil loss through erosion. Many new species introduced as cover crops include tillage radishes, turnips, buckwheat and field peas. The program will open with a welcome by Triangle Farms owner Gary Myers. An NRCS representative will discuss general

cover crop practices and effects on soil health. Local crop farmer Scott Beecher of Crossroad Farms will give a brief testimony concerning the use of cover crops on seed corn ground. A Purdue Extension representative will discuss successful cover crop management. Finally, Mike Holcomb, field technician for Sustainable Natural Resources Technologies, will talk about ongoing conservation grant programs in LaGrange County. The NRCS District Conservationist of LaGrange County, Kevin Shide, will wrap up the session talking about both federal and local funding opportunities for farmers wanting to start using cover crops. The informal, drop-in program is scheduled to begin at 2 p.m. and should take no more than an hour. Cover crop seed dealers will be on hand to give information concerning seed and species availability and exhibit equipment. Free refreshments are included. No registration is required. Parking is available at the site. Everyone is welcome, and people planning to attend can watch for signs the day of the program. For more information, contact the LaGrange County Soil and Water Conservation district at 463-3471, ext. 3.

DUSTIN BY STEVE KELLEY & JEFF PARKER

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 2013

Parents disdain marriage after failure of their own DEAR ABBY: I’m 24 and a college graduate. My boyfriend, “Jordan,” and I have been together for a year and we would like to get married. However, my parents are against the idea. They love Jordan, but they think marriage is stupid because, in 2013, “WHO is getting married?” I think this is totally ridiculous, but I don’t know what to do. I want to be married and I would love my parents’ approval, but it’s hard when they call me stupid for wanting to take that step just because their marriage didn’t work out. I love Jordan and I love my parents. Should I have to choose between the two? — TOTALLY TORN DEAR TOTALLY TORN: You do not have to choose between your parents and being married. At 24, you are an adult and mature enough to make your own decision about the importance of the institution.

FOR BETTER OR FOR WORSE BY LYNN JOHNSTON

GARFIELD BY JIM DAVIS

As to the question of “who is getting married” these days, one answer is people with college degrees are marrying at a greater rate than those with only a high school education — and their unions are more lasting. I’m sorry your parents’ marriage work DEAR didn’t out, but you ABBY would be foolish to let their cynical Jeanne Phillips opinion of this kind of commitment taint your perspective.

•

DEAR ABBY: What are your thoughts about co-workers dating? I have a crush on one of my co-workers, and I believe it is reciprocated. We’re unsure about an office romance

because, while it isn’t against the rules for people to date within the building, there are concerns about sexual harassment or inappropriate behavior on the premises. (Some of our co-workers have dated with no problems.) Would it be wrong to attempt to further the relationship, as long as it remains appropriate within the office, or should I forget it and date someone outside of work? — WORKING RELATIONSHIP DEAR WORKING RELATIONSHIP: This may seem old-fashioned, but I’m not crazy about the idea of office romances. While I know they are not uncommon and it’s hard to fight mutual attraction, office romances are distracting. When the pheromones are flying, it can be extremely difficult to concentrate on the tasks at hand. And if it doesn’t work out, there can be tension, embarrassment and hard feelings in the aftermath, and that’s not good for business.

On this date: • In 1940, Nazi Germany began its eight-month blitz of Britain during World War II with an air attack on London. • In 1963, the National Professional Football Hall of Fame was dedicated in Canton, Ohio. • In 1964, the controversial “Daisy” commercial, an ad for President Lyndon B. Johnson’s election campaign featuring a girl plucking flower petals followed by a nuclear explosion, aired.

The longer the heart is allowed to stay in atrial fibrillation, the harder it is to restore a normal heart rhythm. Medicines often can restore a normal rhythm. When they don’t work, another treatment option is electrical cardioverASK sion. This DOCTOR K. treatment delivers a small Dr. Anthony electrical shock to chest. Komaroff the The shock can “reset” the heart to a normal rhythm. Unfortunately, many patients eventually redevelop atrial fibrillation. A number of different medicines can reduce

the risk that atrial fibrillation will recur. Beta-blocker or antiarrhythmic drugs are used for this purpose. However, none of them is perfect; sometimes the irregular heart rhythm returns anyway. And all of the medications can have side effects. Another relatively new approach to reducing the risk that atrial fibrillation will recur is called “radiofrequency catheter ablation.” This procedure uses radio waves to destroy tissue in the heart that is triggering abnormal electrical rhythms. Another surgical procedure intentionally creates scars in the heart tissue; this blocks abnormal electrical signals from spreading. These techniques can be quite effective, and they were not available when I graduated from medical school. But they don’t always work to keep atrial fibrillation from returning, and they can cause

Medication reduces recurrence of A-fib DEAR DOCTOR K: I went to my doctor after a few episodes of shortness of breath. It turned out to be atrial fibrillation. How is this condition treated? DEAR READER: Atrial fibrillation is a heart rhythm disorder that causes a rapid and irregular heartbeat. In this condition, electrical signals in the heart become uncoordinated. As a result, the chambers of the heart stop pumping in a coordinated and efficient way. Atrial fibrillation doesn’t always cause symptoms, but most people who develop it can tell: The symptoms include palpitations, fainting, dizziness, weakness, shortness of breath and chest pain. There are different treatments to restore a normal heart rhythm when you are having atrial fibrillation. When a patient of mine first develops it, I always try medication first. It’s important to move quickly:

side effects. So I don’t consider them unless medicines haven’t worked to keep atrial fibrillation from returning. If, despite treatment, your heart repeatedly slips back into atrial fibrillation, doctors may allow the heart to stay in atrial fibrillation. When this happens, doctors attempt to slow the heart rate to help the heart work more efficiently. When someone remains in atrial fibrillation, he or she generally needs to take blood-thinning drugs such as warfarin or aspirin to reduce the risk of blood clots. The uncoordinated beating of the heart causes blood to pool and form clots. These clots can travel through the blood and lodge in an artery, causing a stroke. Blood thinners greatly reduce that risk.

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 2013

Fear way of life for coal miners’ wives PRINCETON (AP) — It’s the wee hours of the morning, and she’s still up, waiting for him to get home from the mine. They haven’t been able to speak for half the day. Nervous because he’s running late, she phones a friend — a friend who is also a coal miner’s wife. Brittany Van Vliet, 29, Princeton, has been a coal miner’s wife for three years. “We started dating two days before he got the job,” she said. She wasn’t aware that he was serious about coal mining and “kind of blew it off. I just thought he was joking.” Her husband, Chris Van Vliet, 39, started out hanging curtains in the mine for Peabody Coal. Brittany said she didn’t like that at all. Now, he works in the mine with batteries the size of a pool table. One day a part came down on him and

as he moved out of the way, it cut part of his finger. “It was a pretty nasty wound,” she told the Princeton Daily Clarion. “He was lucky, it could’ve been his hand.” When Brittany got the first call, she didn’t answer. “I don’t usually answer for numbers I don’t know.” As another call came through, her intuition told her to answer. It was the scariest call she ever received. “I just thought, ‘Something’s wrong.’” The voice on the other end told her, “your husband’s in the hospital, he’s been hurt at the mine.” She panicked. “My first thought was that his hand was cut off,” she says, “I was bawling my eyes out.” Chris was out for about one month. The husbands act like injuries from coal mining are not a big deal, but the wives feel it is, she said. “I’m up all night long.

If I get a call, it’s bad, no matter what.” It’s better not to have any calls, although that can prove to be nerve wracking. Now, Brittany copes with worry by taking care of their 3-monthold boy and leaning on her friends, fellow coal miner’s wives. “We’ll say, ‘Hey, has Casey got home? Has Joe got home?’” The women soothe each other. “We all kind of take care of each other.” Some of their husbands are at different mines, but they all share the bond of being a coal miner’s wife. “We were all already friends,” she said. “We all ride motorcycles together.” Despite this, she continues to worry for her husband’s health. Miners destroy their bodies and face ultimately ill health for their families, she said. Her husband has to sleep with a breathing

machine, in part because of all the rock dust, she said, and he deals with anxiety. But miners need support from their families, especially theirs wives, she said. A coal miner’s wife needs support to stay strong for her husband. “It would be nice to have a 9 to 5 job and know what he’s doing,” she said. But if he had that job it wouldn’t support their family the same way coal mining does, she acknowledged. “He doesn’t do it for himself.” So she doesn’t ask him to change careers, she said. “I just let it be.” Beth Mincey, Wheatland, has been a coal miner’s wife for four years, and all three of her brothers-in-law are working for coal mines. They are a new generation of coal miners. Jamie Mincey, 39, has worked for Peabody for 15 years, although not straight through.

He began at the Francisco mine about three years ago. “I was pretty accepting of it since people have to be accepting of my job,” Beth said. She works three 24 hour shifts a week for the Princeton Fire Territory and is about to return to school to learn about training horses. He works 10 p.m. to 11 a.m. five to six days a week. With the little free time they have together, they go fishing and horseback riding. “We deal a lot with going out to the coal mines,” she said of her work with the fire department. “But if I’m at work I can hear the calls but I can’t call him to check on him,” she said. “I have to wait until the morning.” Her husband was saved by a fellow miner who yelled at him to move just as a piece of rock fell. “One

thing I learned is that when a rock hits them, that rock is like (the size of) a car to a normal person. As he moved away, the rock hit him in the arm, and he still has a scar on his shoulder from it to this day, she said. The danger is not the only worry of being a coal miner’s wife. The uncertainty of the mining business is right behind it. The longevity of the coal mine location and company itself is only calculated by what coal is available to retrieve, the quality of the coal, the price of the coal, and supply and demand. Last year when the Peabody Air Quality Mine in Vincennes closed, “Many coal miners lost their jobs through this process, but the lucky ones, such as my husband and brotherin-law, were offered the opportunity to transfer to other Peabody mines in the region that happened to have openings.”
