CN OKs $1.7 million HVAC project BY BOB BRALEY bbraley@kpcmedia.com
ALBION — The Central Noble Community Schools Board of Trustees Tuesday unanimously approved a $1.7 million energy efficiency project for the corporation’s high school. The move will cause a property tax increase for 2014 and 2015 as compared to this year, but taxes still will be lower than in 2012, consultant Curt Pletcher of H.J. Umbaugh & Associates told the board. The project will involve replacing a rooftop heating and cooling unit on the school that
dates back to when the current high school was built in 1972, said Kevin Livingston of Emcor Construction Services. The unit has been upgraded several times, but has reached the end of its useful life, Livingston said. That part of the project will cost $1.27 million. A temperature control upgrade will cost an additional $447,000, he said. The 2012 debt service payment for the corporation was $1.47 million, while this year’s is $1.2 million, Pletcher said. With the new bonds, debt service for 2014 will be just less than $1.36 million, and at $1.36 million the
next year. That increase will translate per year to $13.43 in additional property taxes on a $100,000 residence, 72 cents of taxes per acre for farmland and $41 on a $100,000 commercial property, Pletcher said. There were no comments during a public hearing on the proposal. The board approved a resolution to undertake the project, a preliminary bond resolution and a declaration of intent to reimburse expenditures. It also directed Superintendent Chris Daughtry to sign a letter of intent

KENDALLVILLE — Mike Hughes is ending his career on a sweet note. Hughes, 54, will retire from his current position as plant manager of Kraft in Kendallville this September, marking the finish of a 32-year career with Kraft Foods Inc. Hughes’ time at the company spans several states and food groups, beginning in 1981 with cereal in Battle Creek, Mich. He also held positions with Oscar Mayer in Davenport, Iowa, and with cheese and dairy products in Glenview, Ill. He will retire with Kraft’s sweetest line: the marshmallows and caramels the Kendallville plant has been producing since 1961. “This has been my most enjoyable job in 32 years, and it’s really due to the people in

Under his leadership, the company invested in improving the plant’s infrastructure and equipment, including a more modernized building, a new sugar and loading system that improved operations and plastic packaging lines for marshmallow cream. The plant currently is putting in two new packaging lines. “Our business continues to get more competitive, and we’ve responded to the push well here,” Hughes said. “The employees understand that challenge, and the

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Obama administration, undertaking a major review of U.S. relations with Egypt, edged closer to a decision Tuesday about curtailing some of America’s $1.5 billion in annual aid after the Egyptian military’s crackdown on supporters of ousted President Mohammed Morsi. Top administration officials met at the White House to review the possibility of cutting military or economic aid to Egypt, a longtime U.S. ally and the most populous nation in the Arab world. Some cuts are forthcoming, according to U.S. officials, speaking on condition of anonymity because they weren’t authorized to talk publicly about the sensitive discussions. Tensions in Egypt have soared since the army ousted Morsi, who was the nation’s first freely elected president. The July 3 coup followed days of protests by millions of Egyptians demanding that Morsi, who hails from the Islamist Muslim Brotherhood, step down. Some 1,000 people have been killed in ensuing violence. The U.S. is in a bind. While

Merlins bring their magic to Pokagon BY MIKE MARTURELLO mmarturello@kpcmedia.com
LAKE JAMES — It could be that 2013 will go down in history as the year of the raptor at Pokagon State Park. Just months after it was discovered that bald eagles were nesting in the park, quite possibly for the first time in more than 100 years in Steuben County, another raptor, one that’s even more rare, has been spotted at Pokagon. This time the bird is a Merlin, a pair of which apparently has nested in Pokagon. A Merlin is a small falcon found primarily in northern forests and prairies, the Cornell University Lab of Ornithology’s website says. Its breeding range is primarily in Canada, but it is known to pass through Steuben County as it migrates south for the winter, said Fred Wooley, Pokagon’s interpretive naturalist. “To have these birds here at
this time of year is significant, as there are no known nesting records of Merlin in Indiana,” Wooley said. The birds were discovered by Montgomery, Mich., nature photographer Fred Zilch on Aug. 12. At first, the avid birder thought he saw an American kestrel, but something didn’t seem right. “Having my camera with me for just such an opportunity I clicked away. Through the view finder I saw what wasn’t a kestrel at all but a Merlin. A Merlin in Indiana in August; not likely. These are birds of the north,” he said. “Upon returning home I examined the photos on the computer to find that the bird was indeed a Merlin.” Zilch photographed the Merlin, formally called pigeon hawk, in some conifers near the comfort station at the Pokagon State Park south beach parking lot.

DETROIT (AP) — He was the master of his genre, the Dickens of Detroit, the Chaucer of Crime. Pretty much every novel Elmore Leonard wrote from the mid-1980s Leonard on was a best-seller, and every fan of crime stories knew his name. George Clooney was an admirer. So were Quentin Tarantino, Saul Bellow and Stephen King and millions of ordinary readers. Leonard, who died Tuesday at age 87, helped achieve for crime writing what King did for horror and Ray Bradbury for science fiction. He made it hip, and he made it respectable. When the public flocked to watch John Travolta in the movie version of “Get Shorty” in 1995, its author became the darling of Hollywood’s hottest young directors.

School grade system blasted South Bend district protests state’s program
SOUTH BEND (AP) — Leaders of another large Indiana school district have called for replacing the state’s A-F grading system for schools. The South Bend school board voted unanimously Monday in favor of a resolution protesting how the grades are calculated. The vote comes after The Associated Press published emails showing former state schools superintendent Tony Bennett oversaw changes to the grading formula last year to ensure a Republican campaign donor’s charter school received an A grade. South Bend schools superintendent Carole Schmidt said the 19,000student district can’t opt out of the grading system but can draw attention to its flaws of not considering factors such as poverty, special needs or English proficiency, the South Bend Tribune and WNDU-TV reported. “It doesn’t involve multiple measures over time which is something we want to see, some type of triangudismissing crime novels lated data about how schools as light entertainment, are doing,” Schmidt said. competed for adjectives The Fort Wayne school to praise him.

Red Cross rewards donors FORT WAYNE — With the arrival of Labor Day and the unofficial end to summer, the American Red Cross encourages eligible donors to roll up a sleeve and give blood or platelets to help ensure sufficient supplies over the holiday weekend. Those who present to donate between Aug. 26 and Sept. 9 could win one of five $1,000 American Express gift cards, and all donors will walk away with the instant gratification that they may be helping to save more than one life. “The summer may be coming to an end, but the work of the Red Cross is far from over,” said Sharyn Whitman, CEO of the Red Cross Indiana-Ohio Blood Services Region. “As you make plans for this Labor Day holiday, please also make time to give blood and help patients who
depend on your lifesaving donation.” While thousands of people answered the call for blood and platelet donations issued by the Red Cross earlier this summer, an urgent need remains for platelets and types O negative, A negative and B negative blood. The summer months can be especially difficult to collect enough blood and platelet donations to keep pace with patient needs. “Patients in local hospitals often can’t take a break to enjoy the holiday,” Whitman said. “But blood and platelet donors can give these patients a chance to enjoy this time with family and friends — simply by rolling up a sleeve.” To help spur additional donations over the Labor Day weekend, all presenting blood and
platelet donors between Aug. 30 and Sept. 2 will also receive a complimentary Red Cross T-shirt. Live a story. Give a story. Donate blood or platelets. Call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767) or visit redcrossblood.org/summer for more information and to make an appointment to help save lives. All blood types are needed to ensure a reliable supply for patients. A blood donor card or driver’s license or two other forms of identification are required at check-in. Individuals who are 17 years of age (16 with parental consent in some states), weigh at least 110 pounds and are in generally good health may be eligible to donate blood. High school students and other donors 18 years of age and younger also have to meet certain height and weight requirements.

MERLINS: Officials ask that nobody interfere FROM PAGE A1
returned and photographed two on Friday, documenting the presence of at least one juvenile bird. “Today (Monday), Fred and Martha Zilch returned and observed two Merlins and showed them to about 25 people, birders and non-birders alike. A cross-country running team from Manchester College lined up behind the spotting scope and oooed and ahhed at the birds high atop a Norway spruce,” Wooley said. “This was a great find! I was privileged to be part of it,” Zilch said. As is often the case with a rare bird sighting, the Merlins are attracting attention from birders. Later Monday morning, John and Kathy Kendall, from western Indiana arrived and spent the better part of the afternoon observing and photographing the birds. “John is active in Indiana Audubon, serving as editor of their quarterly journal. I was able to join them for some time and we feel confident of seeing three birds, including one adult
(likely female) and two juveniles. One juvenile was brought and consumed a tufted titmouse,” Wooley said. Birds are the typical diet of Merlins, Cornell’s website says. The bird is about 10to 12-inches tall with a wingspan between approximately 21 and 27 inches. It weighs about a half pound. The Merlin does not build a nest; it takes over old nests of other raptors or crows, Cornell says. Unlike bald eagles, which a few decades ago had faced extinction in the United States, the Merlin is plentiful and there’s no concern of its existence being threatened. What makes it rare locally is that it typically nests hundreds of miles from Steuben County. According to Cornell, nesting of the Merlin is mainly in Canada, with some nesting in extreme northern reaches of Minnesota and states west to the Pacific Ocean. Cornell’s website says the bird’s range is expanding, and John Castrale, an Indiana Department of Natural Resources bird of
prey expert, told Wooley that while the news was exciting, it was expected the bird eventually would end up in Indiana as its nesting range expands south. Pokagon officials are not making a secret about the birds’ location, but they are asking that, like the eagles, people do nothing to interfere with the birds’ normal activity. “We ask that no artificial recordings be used to draw in the birds, which might disturb their normal feeding routines,” Wooley said. With some patience, people can view the birds in the coniferous area near the south beach parking lot. “It consists of three large parking bays, separated by two grassy islands featuring large conifers (Norway spruce) and a couple of deciduous trees. Large spruce and red pines are also scattered around all sides of the parking lot,” Wooley said. “Most all of the Merlin activity has been in the conifers in, and surrounding, the parking lot. An actual nest has not been found.” It is expected that the birds nested in the conifers.
CAIRO (AP) — The Muslim Brotherhood’s top leader looked somber and fatigued after his arrest Tuesday, his demeanor mirroring the Islamist movement’s predicament following its stunning fall from power and a deadly government crackdown. The Brotherhood’s decision to play hardball after the military’s ouster of Egypt’s Islamist president has backfired, leaving it embroiled in a crisis and looking at unattractive choices: Aligning with hard-line groups in an insurgency that almost certainly will fail or going underground in the hope of resurfacing one day. Regardless of which path it chooses, the Brotherhood’s grim future will impact Islamic groups across the Middle East and beyond. The Egyptian organization is something of a “mother ship” that has inspired their creation and provided a role model of the political Islam they want to prevail. “It looks like it’s over for the Brotherhood,” said Sameh Eid, a former member who has maintained contact with the group. “Brotherhood families are grieving over their dead or busy trying to see how they can visit loved ones in detention or others who are injured. The animosity on the streets is exhausting them and allies are abandoning them.”
Founded in 1928, the group has spent most of its 85-year existence on the sidelines, outlawed, harshly treated and demonized by successive regimes. The June 2012 election of one of its longtime leaders, Mohammed Morsi, in Egypt’s first free presidential vote was the pinnacle of its newfound power. With its own man in the land’s highest office and its members dominating the legislature, the Brotherhood looked invincible. It did not last long, however. The military toppled Morsi in a July 3 coup after barely a year in office, dealing the Brotherhood a devastating blow. Shortly before his ouster, Morsi’s supporters set up two sit-in camps at strategic squares on opposite ends of Cairo. The camps soon became a springboard for daily demonstrations that crippled much of the city. Protesters, some of them armed, congregated outside ministries, security buildings and military installations. After security forces cleared the two camps last week, leaving hundreds dead, enraged Brotherhood supporters attacked police stations and government buildings, as well as churches, homes and businesses of minority Christians nationwide. It was an attempt to spread chaos and force the police to vanish as they did in the
face of the mass protests of the 2011 uprising against autocrat Hosni Mubarak. It was a risky gamble that cost the Brotherhood dearly in popularity and lives — as many as 1,000 killed since the Aug. 14 dismantling of the protest camps — and gave the military-backed authorities cover to press ahead with a campaign to decimate the group. At the same time, state media unleashed a propaganda blitz that has portrayed the group as a terrorist organization that must be banned. Hundreds of Brotherhood leaders and supporters have been detained in the crackdown, crippling the group’s command structure and demoralizing loyalists and sympathizers with the arrest of some of its most iconic figures, including 70-year-old supreme leader Mohammed Badie. Badie and his powerful deputy are to face trial later this month for their alleged complicity in the killing of protesters outside the group’s national headquarters in Cairo. Morsi, who has been detained at an undisclosed location since his ouster, is accused of conspiring with the militant Palestinian Hamas group to escape from prison during the 2011 uprising as well as complicity in the killing and torture of protesters outside his Cairo palace in December.

it wants to continue aiding Egypt to maintain ties with the military-run government and assert its influence in the region, the Obama administration and lawmakers do not want to appear to be condoning the bloody crackdown. To express its displeasure, the U.S. suspended the delivery of four F-16 fighter jets to Egypt and canceled biennial U.S.-Egyptian military exercises planned for next month. In canceling the military exercises, President Barack Obama said that America’s traditional cooperation with Egypt “cannot continue as usual” while violence and instability deepen. The administration now is deciding what it wants U.S. engagement in Egypt to look like and what, if any,
aid, should be cut. Congress, meanwhile, appears split on whether to suspend the aid, with some saying that would deprive Washington of leverage over those in power in Cairo. So far, Obama has opted against any swift reaction, insisting it would not serve U.S. national interests to suddenly eliminate funding for operations that cover everything from fighting al-Qaida in the heart of the Middle East and safeguarding the stability of the Suez Canal to halting weapons flow to the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip and ensuring Israel’s security. For weeks the administration has said it won’t characterize the military’s takeover of the Egyptian government as a coup d’etat.’ Such a determination would not only make it appear that the U.S. was taking sides in the internal conflict, but it also would, under U.S. law, trigger an automatic suspension of most aid programs. However, while the administration has not declared Egypt’s military takeover a coup, officials are essentially treating it as such internally and are reviewing aid under the guidelines that govern such a determination, a U.S. official said. Stopping short of making a formal declaration gives the U.S. flexibility in what aid it might cut off, the official said. It
also would make it easier to reinstate aid later. The official spoke only on condition of anonymity because the official was not authorized to discuss the situation publicly. The money is significant. Between 1948 and 2011, the U.S. provided Egypt with $71.6 billion in bilateral aid, according to a June report issued by the Congressional Research Service. A number of U.S. interests are at stake. U.S. warships are given fast passage through the Suez Canal to deploy carrier groups to the Persian Gulf. Without that access, the ships would have to travel around the Cape of Good Hope, adding time to their deployment from Norfolk, Va., the report said. The U.S. also wants to keep the 1979 Israel-Egypt peace treaty intact, promote democracy and economic growth in the country and maintain Egyptian cooperation on intelligence and issues related to terrorist activity in the region. The U.S. currently sends $1.48 billion a year in aid to Egypt. The bulk of the money — $1.23 billion — is in the form of military aid. Since 2000, Egypt’s military financing from the U.S. has been placed in an account at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York where the money stays until it is obligated.

In addition to his work for Kraft, where he also is a member of the corporate business team, Hughes has been involved personally in the Kendallville community. He served as president for the Chamber of Commerce in 2012 and still serves as a board member. He helped contribute to the start of Boomerang Backpacks, a local program initiated four years ago by an East Noble High School teacher that provides food for schoolchildren on the weekends. “The plant brings good-paying jobs and a community corporate partner,” Hughes said about Kraft. “We try to be involved in the community. It’s a relationship that is mutually beneficial for

Soccer squads open seasons BY JAMES FISHER jfisher@kpcmedia.com
KENDALLVILLE — East Noble kept knocking on the door. Finally, with six minutes to play the door opened and Taylor Rex found the corner of the net for East Noble’s first goal of the season. Rex scored the lone goal for the Knights in Tuesday’s season opener as the squad fell 2-1 to Huntington North in girls soccer. “East Noble played a great game,” said Huntington North’s Jeremy Steele, who registered his first coaching victory. “We’re thrilled we came out on top, but we played great.” Huntington North got both its goals from Bailey Martin. She gave the Vikings a 1-0 halftime lead and the margin was still at 1-0 when Rex scored to tie the game. “We dominated possession,” explained East Noble coach Paul Cook. “For the most part we felt like we controlled the game. We felt like we outplayed them except for the two goals.” With the contest tied at 1-1 in the late going, Martin came through with her second goal to allow Huntington North to slip

Colts hope rebuilt line will hold up
AP
Indianapolis quarterback Andrew Luck looks to pass during a preseason game.
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The Indianapolis Colts spent big money to protect their multimillion dollar investment, Andrew Luck. So when Buffalo’s Mario Williams got a clean shot on Indy’s franchise quarterback on the fifth pass play of the preseason, left tackle Anthony Castonzo, like just about everyone else, was upset. “He said, ‘Do you want to get hurt, Andrew?’ ” Luck said, explaining the blown block was the result of a cadence error. “So I
told him I’d publicly take that one on me. He’s in the clear for that.” Assessing blame isn’t the key issue in Indy’s locker room. Keeping Luck upright is, which is why the Colts made an enormous effort trying to revamp their offensive line. After watching the new franchise quarterback go down 41 times last season and hit dozens more times, team owner Jim Irsay, general manager Ryan Grigson and coach Chuck Pagano all came to the same conclusion:
take better care of Luck. Grigson, a former offensive lineman who now seemingly has a cellphone glued to his ear, wasted no time getting to work. His first move in free agency was signing 314-pound Gosder Cherilus, a tackle from Detroit who could reinforce the right side. A few hours later, he added former New England guard Donald Thomas, a 306-pound sometimes starter who could help inside. SEE COLTS, PAGE B3
East Noble sweeps Chargers White Sox BY BOB BUTTGEN bbuttgen@kpcmedia.com
LIGONIER — West Noble’s volleyball team tried to shake off the rust in Tuesday’s season opener against visiting East Noble, but the Knights were able to sweep the floor and leave with a win. After East Noble dropped its lid-lifter Monday night to Leo, the Lady Knights were happy to rebound with the three-set shutout over the Chargers in the West Noble gym. Scores were 25-10, 25-19 and 25-23. Both teams were fighting early-season jitters, but it was East Noble that did a better job of making the fewest mistakes. “We have a good bunch of girls and they all played together tonight,” said East Noble assistant coach Ann Carpenter. “Kourtney Edwards was strong for us and Jacey Cauhorn did a nice job on
defense.” West Noble coach Danielle Powell knew the loss to the Knights was nothing to be overly concerned with. “We have a lot of scrappy and aggressive girls,” Powell said. “But every year we seem to have these opening-game jitters against East Noble. We’re a young team but we have a lot of experience, also. But overall we have a good bunch of girls. We have a lot of areas to work on, though.” The opening game started well for the Knights who led early at 4-0. They dominated the pace to take an easy win, 25-10. The second game was more even, with West Noble holding a 12-9 lead at one point. The game was tied at 17 before East Noble went on an 8-2 run and notched the victory, 25-19. West Noble was warmed up
for the third game which saw the score tied at least nine times. West Noble led 17-16 before East Noble knotted it up at 22-all. The Chargers fought back for the lead at 24-23, before East Noble’s Natalie Galaviz stepped up to the server’s position. She fired off an ace, and then on match point, the Charger defense misjudged Galaviz’s serve and let it drop inbounds for the winning point and a final score of 25-23 in East Noble’s favor. “We are going to continue to work on defense and serving,” Powell said. “We’re still getting settled in. A lot of girls are shuffling back and forth between the varsity and JV teams.” East Noble takes on another NECC team Thursday, traveling to Angola. The Chargers will also be on the road Thursday, in a nonconference contest against Tippecanoe Valley.

scratch out 2-0 victory KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — John Danks shut down Kansas City’s scuffling offense for eight innings, and Chicago did just enough damage against Ervin Santana to squeak out a 2-0 victory. Danks (3-10) ended an eight-start winless streak by scattering seven hits and a walk. That the veteran left-hander’s finest start of the season came against the Royals wasn’t much of a surprise: Danks improved to 5-0 against them in 13 career starts. Addison Reed worked around a leadoff single in the ninth for his 32nd save. It wrapped up the first shutout win for the last-place White Sox since a 3-0 victory against the Angels on May 17. Gordon Beckham homered off Santana (8-7) in the first inning for the only earned run. Twins 6, Tigers 3 Justin Morneau had a season-high four hits, including a two-run homer and a two-run double, and Glen Perkins struck out Miguel Cabrera with two on for the final out to help Minnesota hold off Detroit. Mike Pelfrey (5-10) gave up three runs and seven hits in 6 2-3 innings. Jared Burton got out of a two-on, one-out jam in the eighth, and Perkins finished for his 29th save in 32 chances. Rick Porcello (9-7) allowed five runs and seven hits over 4 1-3 innings for Detroit. Diamondbacks 5, Reds 2 Paul Goldschmidt set a franchise record with his third grand slam of the season and became the first NL player to drive in 100 runs, powering Arizona over Cincinnati. Goldschmidt connected off J.J. Hoover, ending the reliever’s streak of 23 scoreless appearances.

Blazers counting on experience BY JEFF JONES jjones@kpcmedia.com
BUTLER — The 2013 Eastside Blazers will be counting on five experienced skilled-position players to lead the way as younger players work into their roles. Seniors Ty Lockhart, Kadis Renier and Tristan Sprunger and juniors P.J. Dean and Terry Nickolson will play key roles for a team that finished 6-5 last season, but the Blazers also graduated five All-Northeast Corner Conference performers. “We feel we have a great mix of experience, talent intelligence and speed,� said head coach Mike Eshbach, entering his sixth season at Eastside. “I am not sure we
are fast if you are timing us in a 40, but I think we are football fast.� Lockhart, an All-NECC and all-state selection at safety, was Eastside’s top receiver a year ago, catching 31 passes for 642 yards and seven touchdowns, to go with seven interceptions on defense. Dean was second in receiving, grabbing 26 passes for 524 yards and six touchdowns. He was also a threat on the ground, running for 360 yards and another score. Renier was the team’s leading rusher, carrying 68 times for 541 yards and six scores. He also caught 16 passes for 258 yards and four touchdowns.
Sprunger was a reliable receiver, catching 10 passes last year. Nickolson figures to play an expanded role in Eastside’s offense, Eshbach said. Those players will be counted upon to contribute on defense as well. Renier is a contender at strong safety, and Nickolson may play at a linebacker spot. Also returning is all-state kicker Kyle Franz, a senior, who made 38-of-40 extra points and 6-of-8 field goal tries. Contenders for linebacker positions include Nickolson (5-8, 170), sophomores Landen Brow (6-0, 200), Cory Franz (5-10, 170) and Trent Huff (6-0, 160) and junior Zach Carper (6-1,
170). Seniors Ryan Liechty (6-2, 205) and Javier Moreno (5-11, 185), juniors Zac Thiel (6-0, 195) and Kraig Whitman (5-10, 230) are among the candidates for defensive line positions. Brow, Carper, Liechty, Whitman, senior Don Davis (5-10, 190) and freshman Jacob Thompson (6-2, 215) are in the mix for offensive line positions. Cory Franz or freshman Conner Dove (6-0, 180) will take over at quarterback for the Blazers. Moreno could contribute at tight end. The Blazers graduated All-NECC performers at both positions. “We are still trying to understand what it takes to
be varsity football players and adjust to the speed of the game,� Eshbach said. “The best way to overcome lack of experience is to place kids in situations where they have to make quick decisions and react in a quick way. We are hoping to provide many different situations so that they are well acclimated to the speed of the game on Friday nights.� The Blazers have eight juniors and seven seniors on the roster. There are 10 sophomores and 17 freshmen on the 42-player roster. “We must stay healthy, our defense must be able to keep us in games, and we must maximize every possible scoring opportu-
nity,� Eshbach said. Setting the tone the first game is important. The Blazers open the season Friday at home against cross-county rival and future NECC opponent Garrett. “Our goal is to win the first game,� Eshbach said. “We must get that monkey off our back. From that point, I think we have proven to have a very dynamic offense that can score a lot of points. “Our main objective is to win the conference and make some noise in the playoffs,� he added. After the season-opener with Garrett, the Blazers jump right into league play with an Aug. 30 home game with West Noble.
Angola’s identity lies in trenches BY KEN FILLMORE kfillmore@kpcmedia.com
ANGOLA — In his first full offseason in Angola, second-year Hornet football coach Josh Schoeff worked to establish the identity of his team in his image. Better understanding and communication along with some adjustments and more players should help in achieving more success for AHS this season, which will begin at West Noble Friday night. “Intensity, understanding, everything across the board is tenfold compared to last year,� Schoeff said. “I have better knowledge of what our guys are capable of. I’ve seen how guys compete in other sports. More guys are ready to play now than we ever had at any point last season.� The Hornets (3-7 in 2012, including 3-5 in the Northeast Corner Conference) will be entrenched in what the NECC has been known for, running the football. They will run the veer option offense. That was Huntington North’s bread and butter when Schoeff was an assistant on Rief Gilg’s staff. Line play will be essential on both sides of the ball. Angola will be young and not overly big up front after graduating many important people, including Elijah Swager, Caleb Brown and Scott Harris. But Schoeff likes the potential of his linemen and also brought an experienced guy to coach them up. Former Angola head coach Rick Kirkton will coach the offensive and

defensive lines. “Our offensive line has skill, depth, size and strength,� Schoeff said. “To be a great veer option football team, you have to have quickness. We had success running the ball between the tackles in our scrimmage with New Haven Friday. “Our offensive line will be our MVPs for the season. The way they go is how our season will go. I want them to have chips on their shoulders. Being unnamed will work to their advantage.� Senior Trevor Lynch will see plenty of action at quarterback for his third varsity season. Junior Robby Honer has the skill set and the footwork fitting of a veer quarterback. Lynch completed 57-of-110 passes last season
for 702 yards and three touchdowns while throwing three interceptions. Lynch and Honer will want to get the ball in the hands of the Hornets’ biggest weapon, senior Austin Bauer. Bauer received KPC Media Group All-Area honors last season after rushing for 596 yards and catching passes for 503 yards with 12 touchdowns. He averaged 18 yards per reception and 8.2 yards per carry. Seven starters return on defense, led by senior linebacker Dylan Belcher (35 tackles, including 24 solos and two sacks, and six fumble recoveries in 2012). The secondary is pretty much intact with senior Nick Spears and junior Simon Gardner on the corners, senior Troy Zvirblis at free safety and Lynch at the other

safety spot. Seniors Stefon Whitaker and Dakota Steele are returning starters on the defensive line. Schoeff said the defense was the highlight of the scrimmage with a Bulldog team expected to be in the loaded upper half of the Northeast Hoosier Conference. “The defense showed us a lot. Guys were flying around playing with passion and energy,� Schoeff said. “We’re approaching the stage where are philosohpies and schemes are down to where we can play a little bit faster.� Angola’s numbers are up to 75 players from grades 9-12 compared to 62 last year. Schoeff and his coaching staff have been hitting the hallways looking for more players and even
picked up some key players from other Hornet teams. Some players who did not play football last year are taking on key roles this season. The offseason has been invaluable in the Hornets’ development. Schoeff noted that it lifted the status of sophomores Austin Holman and Jake Roddy. Holman will start at weakside linebacker Friday. Along with Kirkton, boys track coach Mike Winters and assistant boys basketball coach Tim Pearcy were added to the coaching staff. Winters has coached football at Angola Middle School recently after briefly being on the AHS staff. Pearcy, a former Trine University basketball forward, will coach AHS receivers and defensive backs.
“In the game of football, experience is everything,� Schoeff said. “Coach Kirkton has seen it all. Coach Winters coached at Marion and has wide knowledge of schemes and player development. He has helped our depth. Coach Pearcy connects real well with our players.� In their radical pursuit of excellence, Schoeff and the Hornets feel they can compete for an NECC championship. “We are trying to create a tremendous culture. We also attack the season asking the question ‘Why not us?,’� Schoeff said. “It will be a tremendous challenge. But we got some key pieces in places to be pretty stinkin’ good. If we hit our stride, we can be a very scary team to deal with.�

Dempster suspended 5 games for hitting A-Rod NEW YORK (AP) — Ryan Dempster of the Boston Red Sox was suspended for five games and fined by Major League Baseball for intentionally hitting Yankees star Alex Rodriguez with a pitch last weekend. The penalty was announced by MLB senior vice president Joe Garagiola Jr., two days after Dempster hit A-Rod at Fenway Park. Garagiola also fined Yankees manager Joe Girardi for arguing with plate umpire Brian O’Nora on Sunday night. Dempster’s fine was $2,500 and Girardi’s was $5,000, separate people familiar with the discipline told The Associated Press. Dempster could still play if he appeals the penalty. Boston has off days Thursday and Monday, allowing him to serve the suspension while getting pushed back only a couple days in the Red Sox rotation. Dempster threw one pitch behind A-Rod’s knees and two more inside in the second inning. Then his 3-0 pitch struck Rodriguez’s left elbow pad and ricocheted off his back.
Travel team tryouts Sunday KENDALLVILLE — The Kendallville SWAT softball team won the School Daze Tournament recently, outscoring its opponents 61-5 on the way to the title.

Tryouts for girls 10 and under are from 9:30 a.m. to noon, with 12 and under tryouts to follow from noon to 2:30 p.m. For more information contact Vinnie Crump (10 and under) at 318-4990 or Rich Click (12 and under) at (215-3817).
COLTS: Browns up next for Indianapolis FROM PAGE B1
Six weeks later, Grigson used a third-round draft pick on guard Hugh Thornton and a fourth-rounder on center Khaled Holmes. So far the results have been mixed. Though Luck wasn’t sacked in Sunday’s 20-12 victory over New York, he was knocked to the ground several times, and once scrambled for a first down. Backups Matt Hasselbeck and Chandler Harnish have been duress in both games, too. “We’re a work in progress. It’s going to take more practice, more games, but we’re moving in the right direction,” Thomas said Tuesday. “You always want to protect the quarterback. It’s a pride thing.” But fixing an offensive line takes time and patience, things the Colts and Colts fans don’t have much of. On Saturday, Indianapolis (1-1) will host Cleveland in the third preseason game, likely the longest and last real test for the starting linemen before the Sept. 8 season opener against Oakland. And if they’re going to keep Luck out of peril when the games count, the Colts need steady improvement. “We made a big jump from the first game to the second game (of the preseason),” Castonzo said. “It just comes down to each guy getting the job done, and I think we’ll be ready for the opener.” Perhaps nobody in the complex understands the potential consequences of failure better than Castonzo. When Indy took the Boston College alum in the first round of the 2011 draft, Castonzo thought he was walking into the most thankless job in football: protecting Peyton Manning’s blind side. But Manning never played a down that season after having neck surgery, Kerry Collins sustained a concussion in Week 3 and never played again, and Indy wound up 2-14. The result: the No. 1 draft pick, a released Manning and a rebuilt roster with Luck as the centerpiece.

Was this news fit to print? While still cutting my teeth on the tough shoe leather that is journalism, I was taught a simple axiom for determining newsworthiness: Dog bites man is not news. Man bites dog is news. It is the unexpected that is truly newsworthy. The more you don’t expect it, the bigger the news probably is. That’s why I was particularly surprised when The Associated Press wrote a story about former Gov. Mitch Daniels’ 2010 MATT attempts to keep a textbook by liberal historian Howard GETTS Zinn out of Indiana classrooms. Instead, Daniels wanted to use a textbook written by former Reagan education secretary Bill Bennett. Emails obtained by The Associated Press through a public records request show Bennett had much more favor among Daniels and his advisers, AP wrote. In January 2010, when Daniels discovered the board of Is Daniels doing pretty education had changed much what was expected the state’s of him really news textbook rules to allow at all? Bennett’s book, he quickly asked how soon his advisers could get copies of “The Last Best Hope” in classrooms. Where exactly is the news value here? This is not a dissertation on the rightness or wrongness of Daniels’ efforts. Daniels is one of two politicians who never, ever called me back when I requested that he do so. The other was former U.S. Sen. Evan Bayh. Daniels is a Republican, and Bayh is a Democrat, which only proves that ignoring the media is not a partisan position per se (but most likely the righteous outcome of being a well-bred individual). This also is not discourse on the questions regarding liberal history vs. conservative history, which is a matter of taste and spin. Conservatives would have you believe it was the courageousness of the citizenry that allowed Americans to tame the Wild West, while liberals would point out we basically stole everything from Native Americans. The truth lies at least partially with both camps (leading a person to believe that both sides, if not lying outright, are at least guilty of the sin of omission for ignoring part of the truth). Rather, this is about man bites dog, or dog biting man. Is anyone surprised Mitch Daniels, a conservative, was opposed to a liberal historian’s account of history? Is it a shocker that Daniels supported a conservative historian’s account of history? It could be argued that not only was Daniels doing what was expected of him, but also what his obligation was as a man elected by a conservative majority of voters on two separate occasions. Are our elected representatives supposed to categorically refute the principles of the people who put them into office in the first place? Is Daniels doing pretty much what was expected of him really news at all? Now if Daniels had been pushing Zinn, that would be something. The AP, of course, needs to publish something to justify the hassle it went through to gain access to Daniels’ emails. If the news organization can’t come up with anyhing more sinister than this, then Daniels should rest easy. I would tell him that personally, but he never returns my phone calls.

Letters to The Editor • We stand corrected on energy savings
Our current immigration system is broken
To the editor: In the editorial on the energy-saving project … there is an error in your calculation that, in my opinion, changes the saving from essentially insignificant to meaningful. In doing the math, saving 416 million kilowatt-hours out of a total of 30 billion is actually 1.4 percent, not “less than one-tenth of 1 percent.”
To the editor: Congressman Marlin Stutzman says he is against amnesty, and so am I! But I think we can both agree that our current immigration system is broken and urgent action is needed. We need to secure the border; we need to increase the number of H-1B visas to attract the world’s best and brightest; we need a Bill Brand simple and effective employment verificaWaterloo tion system to ensure employers play by the rules; and we need a pathway to legal status EDITOR’S NOTE: We apologize for placing for those currently in the country. the decimal point in the wrong spot in our In the interest of national security alone, calculations. we must identify and register those illegally
in the country now. For those found to have no criminal records, earning legal status and eventually citizenship should be an option, but only in a way that’s fair to those who came here legally in the first place. These immigrants need to acknowledge they broke our laws by paying a fine and back taxes, learning English, and getting in the back of the line so those that are playing by the rules aren’t penalized. We have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to end our current system of de facto amnesty and create a pro-growth, 21st century immigration system that is essential to improving our border security as well as our economic security. Shelley Grogg Waterloo
The minimum wage is minimally helpful Later this month, we will observe the 50th anniversary of the “March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom.” The protesters’ demands during that march prompted Dr. Terri Jett to pen an op-ed for the Indianapolis Star. In particular, she emphasized a significant increase in the minimum wage (to $10.10 per hour) as “a moral imperative” that would be beneficial to less-skilled workers and the economy as a whole. Dr. Jett encouraged her readers to support legislation proposed by Sen. Tom Harkin (D-IA) and Rep. George Miller (D-CA). Their bill would “index” the minimum wage, as well, and provide an arbitrary increase in the minimum wage for restaurant servers. Both provisions are reasonable enough — if one is going to have a minimum wage. But the minimum wage itself is greatly overrated and vastly inferior to other policies that accomplish the same goals without collateral damage. But let’s start with what is helpful in the legislation. First, “indexing” means to adjust something for the impact of inflation. For example, the tax code is indexed, so that taxpayers don’t drift into higher income tax brackets, simply through the higher cost of living induced by the federal government through inflation. Social Security is also indexed; payments to the elderly are adjusted for higher average costs of living. Likewise, the minimum wage should be indexed. Another benefit of this reform: It would eliminate the need to revisit this tired issue every few years. We don’t argue over giving more money to Grandma every few years. There’s no good reason to sporadically debate the minimum wage either. Second, the minimum wage is not
currently applied to all labor markets. Restaurant servers don’t earn the minimum but they receive tip income. Other exemptions are far more arbitrary, ranging from babysitters to farmers, from wreathmakers to newspaper employees, from the disabled to the seasonally employed. But if the minimum wage is good policy — for workers and for society — why are there any exceptions at all? In this, the HarkinMiller proposal lacks coherency or courage. ERIC All that said, the minimum wage is not SCHANSBERG good policy. Let’s start with the most obvious point: By increasing the cost of hiring less-skilled workers, the policy would help those who keep their jobs but harm those whose skills would not be rented at the higher, artificial, arbitrary wage floor. (For example, the unemployment rate was 11 percent in July for those with less than a high school education.) Why is it wise or compassionate to help some less-skilled workers by punishing others in the same, vulnerable category? And it can’t be good for the economy as a whole. If it were, we could simply legislate our way to economic growth and prosperity by increasing the minimum wage to $50 per hour. Again, the policy prescription lacks coherence or courage. Ironically, given Dr. Jett’s connection of the policy to the goals of that long ago March, a higher minimum wage increases the likelihood of discriminatory outcomes.
•
The policy disproportionately impacts some minority groups, since they are disproportionately among the unskilled. And by increasing the surplus of workers (unemployment), it lowers the cost of engaging in discrimination. If I’m a bigot, it’s comforting to know that there’s a line of workers from whom I can choose — to indulge my odd and unfortunate preferences. (For example, the black teen unemployment rate was 42 percent in July; for white teens, it was 20 percent.) Finally, the minimum wage is poorly-targeted. It increases wages for all minimumwage workers, not just those trying to raise a family on a “living” wage. As such, it points to better policy alternatives. For example, Indiana imposes the highest state income taxes on households at the poverty line. State legislators, concerned about the working poor, should eliminate all taxation on income earned by those in households below the poverty line. Federal payroll taxes cause far more damage. They cost the working poor 15.3 percent of every dollar earned — for those at the poverty line, more than $3,000 per year. The beauty of these policy reforms is that they do not impose a cost on those we’re trying to help. The moral imperative with public policy begins with good policy analysis and well-targeted policies that maximize benefits and minimize costs, particularly for the vulnerable in our society. As such, the minimum wage is a poor policy for trying to help the poor. ERIC SCHANSBERG, PH.D., an adjunct scholar with the Indiana Policy Review Foundation, is a professor of economics at Indiana University Southeast.
What Others Say • Remember reason for Common Core standards The review of Common Core State Standards, as applied to Indiana, has begun. It is a familiar battle, having been fought once before. The state Board of Education had already approved the Common Core standards in 2010, and Indiana’s schools have been working to implement them in their curriculum. These standards aim to make sure students at each grade level are making progress toward becoming college- and careerready. They also allow students across the nation to be compared with
their peers. That makes sense, for they will be competing with the same group for college admissions and for jobs. The Common Core standards have been criticized as another example of the federal government trying to take over a state responsibility, but that’s just not true. The Common Core standards are not guidelines handed down from the federal government, but those agreed upon by nearly every state. Even within those national standards, there is room for adaptation to address issues within the state. Indiana should not shy away from that option, as long as the larger goal of being able to compare scores with peers in other states is not forgotten.
Earlier this year, the Indiana General Assembly passed a law calling for a one-year pause in implementation of the new standards while the legislators second-guess the state Board of Education’s decision to adopt them. Complicating the issue are two factors — the computer glitch that hampered widespread standardized testing in Indiana and a few other states this spring, along with the scandal involving former Superintendent of Public Instruction Tony Bennett ordering school accountability grades to be changed. Bennett, a Republican, recommended adoption of the Common Core standards, and now all his actions are being
scrutinized. What must not be lost in this debate, however, is that standardized tests and accountability are needed to ensure Hoosier students are learning what they need to succeed in life. Common Core standards can and should be adapted to include Indiana-specific goals. Even the critics should agree with that. But don’t just scrap this movement because of the Tony Bennett scandal or the ill-conceived notion that comparing students on a national basis is a bad idea. Indiana students need the Common Core standards to ensure they are well prepared for the future. The Times, Munster

Briefs • Prosecutors rest in Fort Hood trial FORT HOOD, Texas (AP) — Military prosecutors rested their case Tuesday against the Army psychiatrist accused of killing 13 people during the 2009 shooting rampage at Fort Hood, but whether the soldier plans to do anything to defend himself remains to be seen. After calling nearly 90 witnesses in only 11 days, prosecutors completed their case against Maj. Nidal Hasan. The soldier also is accused of wounding more than 30 people at the Texas Army post during the attack, the worst mass shooting ever on a U.S. military base. The judge then adjourned the trial for the day, meaning Hasan could begin his case Wednesday — but he indicated Tuesday that he planned to call no witnesses. When reminded by the judge when it was time to formally argue that prosecutors hadn’t proven their case, Hasan declined.
Iran Foreign Ministry to handle nuke talks TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — Iran’s Western-educated foreign minister will take the lead in nuclear talks with world powers, an Iranian diplomat said Tuesday, in a sign the Islamic Republic may seek a less confrontational approach to negotiations over its disputed nuclear program than in past years. Since the election of centrist Hasan Rouhani as president in June, the country has trumpeted what it says will be a fresh new style in its dealings with a six-nation group — the five permanent members of the U.N. Security Council plus Germany — over the program. The main thrust of the plan, officials say, is to maintain the program but abandon the bombastic negotiating style used under Rouhani’s predecessor, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
San Diego mayor back in talks SAN DIEGO (AP) — San Diego’s embattled mayor on Tuesday spent a second day in settlement talks over a sexual harassment lawsuit against him, as petitions circulated to recall the former congressman who has been besieged by allegations from more than a dozen women. City Council President Todd Gloria and Councilman Kevin Faulconer confirmed that Mayor Bob Filner has been present at the talks involving the lawsuit filed by his former communications director Irene McCormack Jackson. McCormack, as she is known professionally, was the first to go public with allegations against the 70-year-old mayor, who has resisted an avalanche of calls to step down, including from the entire City Council. Gloria and Faulconer declined to comment further, saying the mediator, former federal judge J. Lawrence Irving, has asked that no one divulge specifics about the ongoing talks.

Afghan massacre victim takes stand JOINT BASE LEWIS-MCCHORD, Washington (AP) — An Afghan farmer shot during a massacre in Kandahar Province last year took the witness stand Tuesday against the U.S. soldier who attacked his village, cursing him before breaking down and pleading with the prosecutor not to ask him any more questions. Haji Mohammad Naim appeared Tuesday in the courtroom at Joint Base Lewis-McChord south of Seattle, where a sentencing hearing began for Staff Sgt. Robert Bales in the slayings of 16 civilians killed during pre-dawn raids on two
villages on March 11, 2012. The hearing afforded some victims and relatives their first chance to confront Bales face-to-face. With a thick gray beard, a turban and traditional Afghan dress, Haji Mohammad Naim testified in his native Pashto through an interpreter, speaking loudly and quickly and frequently waving a finger in the air. He pointed to where he was shot in the cheek and neck. “This bastard stood right in front of me!” he said. “I wanted to ask him, ‘What did I do? What have I done to you?’… And he shot me!”
Bales pleaded guilty in June to avoid the death penalty. Now the six jurors must decide whether he is sentenced to life in prison with the possibility of parole or without it. Naim, who is about 60 years old, said he has suffered from numbness in his hand and a stutter since the shooting. He became emotional, often speaking over the interpreter, as prosecutor Lt. Col. Jay Morse asked what it was like to have someone come into his home uninvited. He eventually stood up and said he’d had enough: “Don’t ask me any more questions!”
The prosecutor asked him for one more favor: to sit down and see whether the defense attorneys had any questions for him. He complied, but Bales’ lawyers said they didn’t need to ask him anything. Naim’s two sons, Sadiquallah, who is about 13, and the older Faizullah, also testified. Sadiquallah spoke quietly, responding with a simple “yes” when asked if he cried about being shot. Faizullah, who was not at home during the attack, said his father has trouble picking up even simple objects because his hand is so weak.
Seven Afghans testified. Four were hurt in the attacks. Three others were relatives of the dead or wounded. Among the other victims who testified was a man who goes by the name Samiullah. His teenage son, Rafiullah, was shot in both legs. His daughter, Zardana, survived after being shot in the head. “He wakes up with nightmares. He thinks the Americans are coming after him,” Samiullah said. “Zardana was a bright girl. She was shot in the head. Half her brain is missing. She is no longer the same person.”
Teen fires assault rifle at Georgia elementary DECATUR, Ga. (AP) — A teen was in custody Tuesday, accused of firing shots from an assault rifle at an Atlanta-area elementary school where dramatic television footage showed young students racing out of the building, being escorted by teachers and police to safety. No one was injured. The 800 or so students in pre-kindergarten to fifth grade were evacuated from Ronald E. McNair Discovery Learning Academy in Decatur, a few miles east of Atlanta. They sat outside in a field for a time until school buses came to take them to their waiting parents and other relatives at a nearby Wal-Mart. When the first bus arrived a couple hours later, cheers erupted in the store parking lot. The suspect, a 19-yearold man with no clear ties to the school, fired at least a half-dozen shots with an assault rifle from inside the school and officers returned fire when the man was alone and they had a clear shot, DeKalb County Police Chief Cedric L. Alexander said at a news conference. Though the school has a system where people must be buzzed in, the gunman slipped inside behind someone authorized to be there, Alexander said. The suspect, whose identity was not released, never got past the front office, where he held one or two employees captive for a time, and was being questioned at the police department, Alexander said. No charges had yet been filed. A woman in the school
office called WSB-TV as it was happening to say the gunman asked her to contact the Atlanta station and police. WSB said during the call, shots were heard in the background. Assignment editor Lacey Lecroy said she spoke with the woman who said she was alone with the man and his gun was visible. “It didn’t take long to know that this woman was serious,” Lecroy said. “Shots were one of the last things I heard. I was so worried for her.” U.S. Marshals and other law enforcement took the man into custody after the shootout. Alexander said the man had other weapons. DeKalb County Schools Superintendent Michael Thurmond praised faculty and authorities who got the young students to safety, staying calm and following safety plans in place. All teachers and students made it out of the school unharmed. “It’s a blessed day, all of our children are safe,” Thurmond said at the news conference. “This was a highly professional response on the ground by DeKalb County employees assisted by law enforcement.” Complicating the rescue, bomb-sniffing dogs alerted officers to something in the suspect’s trunk and investigators believe the man may have been carrying explosives, Alexander said. Officials cut a hole in a fence to make sure students running from the building could get even farther away to a nearby street, he said.
Former president charged in Bhutto killing RAWALPINDI, Pakistan (AP) — In an unprecedented ruling that tests the military’s aura of inviolability, a court indicted former president and army chief Pervez Musharraf Tuesday on murder charges stemming from the 2007 assassination of ex-Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto. Musharraf, who became a key U.S. ally in the wake of the Sept. 11, 2001 terror attacks, pleaded not guilty. The decision by the court in Rawalpindi marked the first time a current or former army chief has been charged with a crime in the country. Musharraf, a 70-year-old former commando who took power in a 1999 coup and stepped down from office in disgrace nearly a decade later, now faces a string of legal problems that in many ways challenge the military’s sacrosanct status in Pakistani society. The retired general was charged with murder, conspiracy to commit murder and facilitation for murder, said prosecutor Chaudhry Muhammed Azhar. He did not detail the accusations against Musharraf, but prosecutors have alleged he failed to provide enough protection to Bhutto as she led her Pakistan People’s Party in a parliamentary election that might have given her a third term as prime minister. She was killed in a gun and
bomb attack at a rally in Rawalpindi, near the capital, Islamabad. The charges also include clearing the scene of a crime and destroying evidence, Azhar said. Bhutto was respected by many Pakistanis for her condemnation of militancy and support for the poor. But her premiership was marred by accusations of widespread corruption. Her assassination set off protests across the country and helped propel her party to power in parliament and her husband to the presidency. Bhutto’s supporters say Musharraf ignored requests for additional security, and a 2010 U.N. report on her death said he failed to make serious efforts to ensure Bhutto’s safety. The court also harshly criticized investigators for hosing down the crime scene, failing to perform an autopsy and quickly blaming a Taliban commander for the assassination. The prosecutor said he has a list of 148 witnesses and documents including a note Bhutto sent to a close friend complaining that Musharraf was not providing her with proper security. The judge set Aug. 27 as the next court date to present evidence. But Pakistan court cases can drag on for years, and convictions are often overturned on appeal.

A memorial to Christopher Lane is shown Tuesday along the road where
he was shot and killed, in Duncan, Okla.
Three teens charged after Australian player slain DUNCAN, Okla. (AP) — With the simplest of motives — breaking up the boredom of an Oklahoma summer — three teenagers followed an Australian collegiate baseball player who was attending school in the U.S. and killed him with a shot to the back for “the fun of it,” prosecutors said Tuesday as they charged two of the teens with murder. As the boys appeared in an Oklahoma courtroom, a 17-year-old blurted out, “I pulled the trigger,” then wept after a judge told him that Tuesday’s hearing wasn’t the time or place to sort out the facts of the case. Prosecutor Jason Hicks called the boys “thugs” as he told Stephens County Judge Jerry Herberger how Christopher Lane, 22, of Melbourne, died on a city street. Chancey Allen Luna, 16, and James Francis Edwards, Jr., 15, of Duncan were charged with first-degree murder and, under Oklahoma law, will be tried as adults. Michael Dewayne Jones, 17, of Duncan was accused of using a vehicle in the discharge of a weapon and accessory to first-degree murder after the fact.
He is considered a youthful offender but will be tried in adult court. “I’m appalled,” Hicks said after the hearing. “This is not supposed to happen in this community.” In court, Hicks said Luna was sitting in the rear seat of a car when he pulled the trigger on a .22 caliber revolver and shot Lane once in the back. Hicks said Jones was driving the vehicle and Edwards was in the passenger seat. Edwards has had run-ins with the law previously and had been in court Friday, the day of the killing, to sign documents related to his juvenile probation. “I believe this man is a threat to the community and should not be let out,” Hicks said as he requested no bond for Edwards. “He thinks it’s all a joke.” The two younger boys were held without bond; Bond was set at $1 million for Jones. Family and friends on two continents mourned Lane, who gave up pursuit of an Australian football career to pursue his passion for baseball, an American pastime. His girlfriend Sarah Harper tearfully laid a cross at a streetside memorial
in Duncan, while half a world away, an impromptu memorial grew at the home plate he protected as a catcher on his youth team. “We just thought we’d leave it,” Sarah Harper said as she visited the memorial on Duncan’s north, well-to-do side. “This is his final spot.” Flowers, photos and an Australian flag already adorned the roadside in a tribute to Lane. “I don’t know anybody who’s left this. It means a lot,” Harper said. Police Chief Dan Ford has said the boys wanted to overcome a boring end to their summer vacation — classes in Duncan resumed Tuesday — and that Jones told officers that they were bored and killed Lane for “the fun of it.” Lane played at East Central University in Ada, 85 miles east of Duncan, and had been visiting Harper and her parents after he and his girlfriend returned to the U.S. from Australia about a week ago. His old team, Essendon, scheduled a memorial game for Sunday to raise funds for Lane’s parents as they worked to have their boy’s remains sent home.

Woman feels guilty for having affair DEAR ABBY: I am a twice-divorced woman who has never been good at choosing the men in my life. Two years ago, I met a man who is 12 years my senior. He is sweet, thoughtful and caring, and would do just about anything for me. What started as companionship has turned into a full-blown love affair. The problem is that he is married. His wife is not well. She has a chronic disease and other medical problems. The way he cares for her is what attracted me to him in the first place. He spends what time he can with me, but mostly he is there for his wife. I am OK with the situation, as I don’t want him to leave her for me. I have tried breaking it off with him, but he gets me to take him back, saying he doesn’t know what he would do without me in his life. He is very

it can cause muscle weakness, cramping or cardiac arrhythmias. Conditions that impair magnesium absorption include chronic vomiting, Crohn’s disease (an inflammatory condition of the intestine), celiac disease and gastric bypass surgery. In all of these conditions, magnesium is lost in what is vomited or passed in bowel movements. As a result, people with these conditions often have magnesium deficiency. Commonly used diuretic medicines also can cause the kidneys to eliminate magnesium in the urine, lowering the level of magnesium in the blood and throughout the body. The thiazide diuretics (such as hydrochlorothiazide) or “loop diuretics” (such as furosemide) are both culprits. People with diabetes whose blood sugar is not well controlled also lose magnesium in the urine. The

DEAR DOCTOR K: What does magnesium contribute to good health? Should I have my magnesium level checked? DEAR READER: Magnesium is important for good health. You need adequate magnesium for bone health, and it’s essential for proper nerve, muscle, heart rhythm and immune function. It helps regulate blood sugar levels and promotes healthy blood pressure. We get most of the magnesium we need in food. About half of the magnesium we absorb is stored in bone; the other half is stored in cells throughout the body. Excess magnesium is excreted through the kidneys. If you eat whole-grain bread and your tap water is “hard” — meaning it contains relatively high levels of minerals — you probably consume more magnesium than a person
strong-willed. Abby, I feel like I’m in the background waiting for her to die so I can take her place as his wife, and I hate this feeling. What should I do? — GUILTY IN DEAR DEAR GUILTY: ABBY Your feelings are well founded. Jeanne Phillips You ARE waiting in the background for this man’s wife to die. But what if she doesn’t? You say you have never been good at choosing men, and I have to agree. Please don’t think I am unsympathetic, but it’s time to ask yourself why you chose to
same is true for people who abuse alcohol. How much magnesium should you get? For women ages 19-30, 310 milligrams (mg) daily; ages 31 and older, 320 mg. For men ages 19-30, 400 mg; ages 31 and older, 420 mg. Popular multivitamin brands contain between 10 percent to 30 percent of the recommended daily allowance (RDA) for magnesium. Studies have shown that magnesium supplements may modestly lower blood pressure, but don’t take high-dose supplements without a doctor’s guidance. You can get magnesium from a variety of healthy foods, such as nuts, fish, certain fruits, many vegetables and whole grains. DR. KOMAROFF is a physician and professor at Harvard Medical School.
