Convicted killer appeared agitated on night of slaying LEBANON (AP) — A woman whose former boyfriend is serving a 225-year sentence in an Indiana triple slaying said Tuesday that the man was agitated and out of breath when he woke her up the night of the killings. Mala Singh-Mattingly testified during the murder trial of David Camm, another man accused in the case. She told jurors her ex-boyfriend, Charles Boney, was “real secretive” when he left with his backpack one evening in September 2000 to “meet a buddy.” She said Boney was supposed to report to work at 10 p.m. but returned home agitated just after midnight.

City Council approves 2014 budget BY DENNIS NARTKER dnartker@kpcmedia.com

KENDALLVILLE — The City Council Tuesday night voted unanimously to approve the proposed 2014 city budget of approximately $9.6 million on second reading. Council members voted following a public hearing on the budget that attracted no public

comment. The proposed overall budget features a 2.18 percent increase and includes a 2.5 percent pay raise for city employees and an additional $5,000 in salaries for the police chief and fire chief. Handshoe pointed out the police and fire departments have the most significant budget increases of any city department, because grants the

city has received for those departments must be included in their budgets. “Our goals in this budget are public safety, a better street improvement program, economic development and the airport,” Handshoe said. The city will have more money for streets in 2014 because the state has changed its

formula for allocating funds to municipalities for local streets and alleys. Water and water pollution control department budgets are supported with user fees, not tax money, and are not included in the budget. The budget ordinance is eligible for third and final reading at the SEE COUNCIL, PAGE A6

Shooter heard voices

Seniors Aaron Dills and Jonathon Kane with the high school’s video presentation department created a video explaining the project. Students in the school’s DECA organization made a business plan and brochure. No school district funds or tax money will be used for the project. Completion will depend entirely on private donations and the sale of memorial bricks. Several times throughout the year, the stadium is host to a variety of community events. Crowded events stretch the facilities to the limit, Peterson said. Congested areas restrict passage to the bleachers, and visitors entering the facility are often confused by the ticket booth being at a separate location from the gate.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The former Navy reservist who killed 12 people at the Washington Navy Yard had been hearing voices and was undergoing treatment in the weeks before the shooting rampage, but was not stripped of his security clearance, officials said Tuesday. Aaron Alexis, a 34-year-old information technology employee with a defense contractor, Alexis used a valid pass to get into the highly secured installation Monday morning and started firing inside a building, the FBI said. He was killed in a gun battle with police. The motive for the mass shooting — the deadliest on a military installation in the U.S. since the attack at Fort Hood, Texas, in 2009 — was a mystery, investigators said. U.S. law enforcement officials told The Associated Press that there was no known connection to terrorism and that investigators have found no manifesto or other writings suggesting a political or religious motive. Alexis had been suffering a host of serious mental problems, including paranoia and a sleep disorder, and had been hearing voices in his head, according to the officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the criminal investigation was still going on. He had been treated since August by Veterans Affairs, the officials said.

EN seeking facelift BY DENNIS NARTKER dnartker@kpcmedia.com

KENDALLVILLE — A fundraising campaign for the East Noble High School campus beautification project kicks off Thursday night with a video presentation of the proposed design at the school for invited guests. In April, high school students and staff members announced plans to improve the athletics stadium facilities with landscaping along the north end zone, a plaza filled with commemorative bricks, a new ticketing center and main gate, relocation and upgrade of the concession stand, a new fan tailgating area, flagpole tribute to veterans and other upgrades. The project began during the summer when students landscaped the south end zone area with nearly 80 trees and stones near the scoreboard. The design incorporates Kendallville and East Noble history, the branches of the military and school district military connections, high school sports achievements and a memorial area made up of 6,000 engraved paving bricks sold to the public to pay for the project, said East Noble High School Principal Steve Peterson. Students from the high school and Impact Institute have been working with an architectural firm on the project’s design. “Our goal is to have the supporting infrastructure as updated for the fans and guests as the turf is for our athletes,” said Peterson. “This is not just for football. This is a community project with Rome City, Avilla and Kendallville.”

Shooting victims had long careers with Navy WASHINGTON (AP) — A dozen people died in a shooting rampage Monday at the Washington Navy Yard. It was the deadliest attack at a domestic military installation since November 2009, when an Army psychiatrist killed 13 people and wounded 30 others at Fort Hood, Texas. Early Tuesday, the stories of some of those who died started to surface. Michael Arnold, 59, of Lorton, Va., was a Navy veteran and avid pilot who was building a light airplane at his home, said his uncle, Steve Hunter. “It would have been the first plane he ever owned,” Hunter said in a telephone interview from Rochester, Mich., Arnold’s hometown. “It’s partially assembled in his basement.” Hunter said his nephew retired from the Navy as a commander or lieutenant commander and had previously been stationed at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii. He worked

at the Navy Yard on a team that designed vessels such as the USS Makin Island, a Wasp-class amphibious assault ship used by the Marine Corps. Sylvia Frasier, 53, had worked at Naval Sea Systems Command as an information assurance manager since 2000, according to a LinkedIn profile in her name. Her duties at NAVSEA included providing policy and guidance on network security, and assuring that all computer systems operated by the headquarters met Department of Navy and Department of Defense requirements. Kathleen Gaarde, 63, of Woodbridge, Va., was a financial analyst who supported the organization responsible for the shipyards, her husband, Douglass, wrote in an email to the AP Tuesday. Douglass Gaarde declined to speak, but wrote that he was unable to sleep. “Today my life partner of 42

Stutzman loses House position over vote FORT WAYNE (AP) — U.S. Rep. Marlin Stutzman says his vote against proposed rules for the House debate on the federal farm bill cost him his position with the Republican leadership team. Stutzman was removed as an assistant whip, or vote counter, for congressional Republicans because he opposed the GOP leadership’s limits on which farm bill amendments would be debated. “I did vote against the rule, and I knew it would cost me my position as assistant whip,” Stutzman told an area newspaper. “One of the requirements is you have to vote for all the rules with leadership if you’re on the whip team.” Stutzman was first elected to

northeastern Indiana’s 3rd District seat in 2010. His vote in June came after the House Rules Committee rejected his proposed amendments to separate agriculture programs from the food stamp program, which account for about 80 percent of Stutzman farm bill spending. Stutzman was among only four Republicans in the 233-member caucus who voted against GOP rules for considering the bill. A day later, Stutzman and 61 other Republicans joined 172 Democrats in defeating the farm

bill. Three weeks later, House Republicans narrowly passed legislation to split agriculture programs and food stamps. “I think that I proved out that I was right under the circumstances,” he said. Stutzman said he remains on good terms with Republican leaders. Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., is scheduled to attend an October fundraiser for Stutzman in Indiana. The House could vote on a bill this week that would cut the nearly $80 billion-a-year food stamp program by an estimated $4 billion annually and allow states to put broad new work requirements in place for recipients.

34-year ISP veteran retires ANGOLA — No longer will you find Indiana State Police Trooper Master Trooper Doug Kelly patroling the morning rush along the northern reaches of Interstate 69. And those motorists came to know Kelly’s presence on C.R. 200W and Bay View Road probably have noticed he’s no longer there Kelly to monitor the speed limit that has changed a couple times in the last five or so years. Kelly, who has dedicated the last 34 years of his life to service to citizens of Indiana, has retired from the Indiana State Police. Kelly said during his career, he always tried to see the good in people and to make the best out of bad situations. “I tried to treat people fairly, equitably and respectfully as that’s how I always wanted to be treated” Kelly said. “I always wanted to take the higher road and to set a positive example in all that I did.” What Kelly wanted for others wasn’t always directed to him as a trooper. In 2012, Kelly was awarded the department’s Combat Action Award for his actions in May of 2009 when he pursued a stolen vehicle suspect who eventually exited the vehicle and ran on foot through a field. Upon catching up to the man, Kelly attempted to take him into custody, even as the man struck him in the head with a rock and tried to take his gun from his holster. Kelly was able to make the arrest after suffering two broken fingers in the altercation. Kelly was a 1975

graduate of Northmont High School in Clayton, Ohio. Following high school, Kelly enlisted in the U.S. Army where he served his country as a military police officer until 1979. He was accepted to the 37th Indiana State Police Recruit Academy in 1979, and on Sept. 30 of that year, he was appointed as a trooper and was assigned to the Fort Wayne Post. Kelly worked the road, serving the until 1989 when he transferred to the Lafayette Post, where he was assigned to Clinton County. In 1995, Kelly was took an assignment out of Headquarters in the Gaming Division, conducting background investigations for the riverboats. Kelly transferred back to the Fort Wayne post in late 1997 and was assigned patrol duties in DeKalb and then eventually Steuben County, a position that he held until his retirement. During his career, Kelly served the department as a member of the Tactical Intervention Platoon, as a field training officer and as a technical crash investigator. He is a member of the department’s “Possible Club” for firearms excellence and proficiency, and a recipient of the 1 million-mile Safe Driving Award. Kelly, who is a member of the Faith Baptist Church in Angola, renewed his commitment to Christ in December 2011. He and his wife Sheryl live in rural Steuben County and have three grown children, Amanda, Adam and Michael, and are the proud grandparents of Delaney and Lucas.

Kokomo hospital cutting staff KOKOMO (AP) — Employees at a central Indiana hospital are facing job cuts as Community Howard Regional Health will reduce its current workforce by 50 positions over the next few weeks. Officials of the Kokomo hospital said the job cuts are needed because of fewer patients being hospitalized, uncertainty with the federal health care overhaul and reductions in Medicare and private insurance reimbursement. The job cuts represent about 4 percent of the some 1,300 employees at the hospital, the Kokomo Tribune reported.

Appeals has upheld the 50-year sentence for a northern Indiana woman on three counts of neglect for ignoring the abuse of three grandchildren, including one who died. The appeals panel Tuesday rejected the appeal of 53-year-old Dellia Castile of South Bend.

New rule requires meeting for jobless benefits

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The federal government could dig up the remains of felons mistakenly buried with full military honors under legislation introduced in the U.S. House. Rep. Susan Brooks filed the Alicia Dawn Koehl Respect for National Cemeteries Act Tuesday. It’s named after an Indianapolis apartment manager fatally shot by Michael LeShawn Anderson, who later received full military burial benefits from the Veterans Administration. Anderson was buried in Fort Custer National Cemetery in Augusta, Mich., in June 2012 after taking his own life following a shooting rampage in which three others also were wounded. The VA notified Indiana’s congressional delegation July 30 that it would not disinter Anderson because it doesn’t have the authority to do so. The Brooks bill is the companion to legislation

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Unemployed Indiana residents risk losing their jobless benefits if they fail to show up for an in-person meeting required under a new rule taking effect next month. Department of Workforce Development will begin mailing notices in mid-October to unemployed Hoosiers who’ve received at least four weeks’ worth of jobless benefits. Those individuals will need to schedule an in-person meeting at a local WorkOne office, where they must show a photo ID and provide proof that they’ve been looking for work. Agency spokesman Joe Frank says the provision is aimed at cutting unemployment fraud and making sure people use the agency’s resources to speed their return to work. Unemployment recipients who repeatedly fail to show up for an in-person meeting will have their benefits cut off until they meet the provision.

In 1973, he developed a sulfur dioxide (responsible for acid rain) removal process from stack gas where the by-product could be used for water and wastewater treatment and construction materials. Later he developed a novel method for constructing sub-jacent foundations which required soil freezing and tunneling and was particularly designed for stabilization of the Leaning Tower of Pisa. He was also a resident associate for Argonne National Laboratory in Argonne, Ill., in 1977. In 1983, he won a grant from the U.S. Department of Energy to develop a pilot plant project for the Lin Sulfur Dioxide Removal and Waste Products Utilization Process. His last professional appearance was presenting a paper in China in 2008. Lin has dedicated his working life to environmental engineering and is responsible for the Lin Theory of Flux, a pioneering development in fluid systems which bears his name. It can lead to more efficient and economic industrial processes and could have a far-reaching impact on fuel consumption, global warming, and the migration of pollution. The theory has been substantiated by many published scientific accounts and by the pilot plant studies. It can be the basis for the development of far more efficient and economic processes. He believed, if utilized, the application of the theory would promote world economy; and result in the reduction of energy consumption and mitigation of the adverse effects of pollution and global warming on our environment. He had ideas on sulphuric acid production based on his revolutionary approach and unlike conventional methods do not require catalytic converters or drying towers, resulting in a simple cheap and energy efficient process. Dr. Lin won many awards. Some of them are the International Peace

Prize, United Culture Conventions, USA (daring to soar and creating a Harmony of Humankind), Achievement Award by the United Inventors and Scientists of America. Lin is listed in various years of publications like Who’s Who in American Inventors, Honorary Award from Chinese Electrical Engineering, Industry’s Directory of Technical Biography, Who’s Who in Engineering, Who’s Who in Technology Today, Who’s Who in Midwest, Who’s Who in Science and Technology, Who’s Who in Education, Who’s Who in the World (13th-16th ed), 500 Greatest Geniuses of the 21st Century, American Biographical Institute, 500 Founders of the 21st Century, American Men & Women of Science, Men of Achievement, International Who’s Who of Intellectuals, Men of Distinction, Leaders of American Science, and International Book of Honor. In his leisure time, Ping enjoyed playing Chinese chess, writing, reading, and travel. He was a big Chinese food fan, and he will be dearly missed by his family and friends.

Disaster relief agreement benefits Noble County FORT WAYNE — The American Red Cross of Northeast Indiana and the YMCA of Greater Fort Wayne recently finalized a disaster relief agreement, ensuring mass care sheltering in the event of a major disaster. Ys in Allen, Whitley and Wells counties join Ys in DeKalb, Noble and Steuben counties who already have agreements to shelter community members in times of great need. In the case of a major disaster, the American Red Cross can fulfill the need for mass care sheltering and feeding in this six-county region. In Northeast Indiana, the Red Cross has more than 520 trained volunteers prepared to respond when disaster strikes, by operating shelters for community members who are displaced from their homes. American Red Cross shelters not only provide a temporary residence, but also offer three meals a day and snacks and water provided round the clock. In the wake of a crisis, people often feel overwhelmed and simply need someone to talk to — thanks to the collaborations with the YMCA there will be a place for refuge supplied with Red Cross volunteers to listen and help. “As part of the YMCA’s commitment to our community, we believe it is our responsibility to offer our facilities to people in need, in the

event of a local emergency,� stated chief operating officer Chris Angellatta. “Since we cannot predict the size of a disaster or who will be impacted, the American Red Cross must be prepared for whatever comes our way — and we cannot do it alone. The American Red Cross seeks out partner agencies to commit to help in advance of the crisis,� said Katherine Mac Aulay, executive director of the American Red Cross of Northeast Indiana. In addition to shelter arrangements, the American Red Cross also works with local businesses and non-profit organizations to obtain supplies needed to operate a mass care shelter — such as tables, chairs, cleaning supplies and games for children. Vendors can also form service agreements with the Red Cross to provide mass catering and food preparation for residents of disaster shelters. Interested businesses can contact the Red Cross for more information about how to help the community during emergency situations.

FACELIFT: Community to contribute with pavers The new layout will provide better access to the bleachers, concession stand and other facilities with more walking space. Plans call for an arched, cast-iron entrance gate with the East Noble crest and some type of community symbol, an area for 6,000 engraved pavers, a brick concession stand moved back toward the school building, pathways to locker rooms separating spectators from visiting and home teams, a 6-foothigh brick wall next to the entrance with space for donor plaques, and a turf tailgating area behind the west bleachers. At the north end on a hill will be a line of flagpoles with the

American flag, flanked by flags of the branches of the military and athletic conference members. Plaques dedicated to East Noble graduates who have served in the military will be installed. The financial goal is $350,000, said Peterson. Customized brick pavers made by Slater’s Concrete Products in Kendallville will be sold to pay for the project. Ley’s Monuments of Avilla is also helping with the project. A 4-inch by 8-inch block with three lines of engraved text will cost $100, and an 8-inch by 8-inch brick with six lines of text will be available for a $300 donation. A 12-inch by 12-inch medallion engraved with logo set in a border is offered for a

ILL.

KENDALLVILLE — Glass from an upstairs window shattered and fell to the sidewalk in the 100 block of South Main Street in downtown Kendallville Tuesday. The glass fell on the east side of the street around 3

p.m. Kendallville Police officers investigating the incident said the cause of the falling glass remained under investigation Tuesday afternoon. Witnesses reported seeing a domestic dispute in the apartment from which the glass fell, but the residents disputed that

$1,000 gift. Other sponsorship opportunities will be available at plazaproject@ eastnoble.net. The project can be done in phases as funding allows, according to Peterson. The fundraising campaign will continue throughout this school year, and work on the plaza is expected to begin in June. The goal is to complete the project by the start of the 2015-2016 school year when East Noble is part of a new athletic conference.

The Navy had not declared him mentally unfit, which would have rescinded a security clearance Alexis had from his earlier time in the Navy Reserve. The assault is likely to raise more questions about the adequacy of the background checks done on contract employees and others who are issued security clearances — an issue that came up most recently with National Security Agency leaker Edward Snowden, an IT employee with a government contractor. Navy Secretary Ray Mabus ordered two security reviews Tuesday to look at how well the Navy protects its bases and how accurately it screens its workers. A senior defense official also said Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel intends to order a review of physical security and access at all

department installations worldwide. In the hours after the Navy Yard attack, a profile of Alexis began coming into focus. A Buddhist convert who had also had flare-ups of rage, Alexis, a black man who grew up in New York City and whose last known address was in Fort Worth, Texas, complained about the Navy and being a victim of discrimination. He also had run-ins with the law over shootings in 2004 and 2010 in Texas and Seattle, and was ticketed for disorderly conduct after being thrown out of a metro Atlanta nightclub in 2008. Alexis’ bouts of insubordination, disorderly conduct and being absent from work without authorization prompted the Navy to grant him an early — but honorable — discharge in 2011 after nearly four years as a full-time reservist,

authorities said. During his service, he repaired aircraft electrical systems at Fort Worth. In addition to those killed at the Navy Yard attack, eight people were hurt, including three who were shot and wounded, authorities said. Those three were a police officer and two female civilians. They were all expected to survive. Those killed included: Michael Arnold, 59, a Navy veteran and avid pilot who was building a light airplane at his home; Sylvia Frasier, 53, who worked in computer security; Kathleen Gaarde, 63, a financial analyst; and Frank Kohler, 50, a former president of the Rotary Club in Lexington Park, Md., who proudly reigned as “King Oyster” at the region’s annual seafood festival. Monday’s onslaught at a single building at the Navy Yard unfolded about 8:20 a.m.

Tigers, Reds earns wins DETROIT (AP) — Miguel Cabrera homered, Austin Jackson hit a two-run single and the Detroit Tigers held on despite a short-handed bullpen, beating the Seattle Mariners 6-2 on Tuesday night. The AL Central-leading Tigers were ahead 3-2 when they escaped a bases-loaded jam in the eighth while playing without closer Joaquin Benoit and left-handed reliever Drew Smyly. They were both given the night off. Anibal Sanchez struck out 10 in 6 1-3 innings, but the Mariners tied it at 2 against him in the seventh, forcing Detroit’s relievers into action.

Al Alburquerque (3-3) got out of the seventh, and Phil Coke and Jose Alvarez made it through a dodgy eighth. Alvarez got two outs in the ninth, and Jose Veras finished. Yoervis Medina (4-6) took the loss. Reds 10, Astros 0 Jay Bruce hit a grand slam and had 5 RBIs, Mike Leake pitched eight scoreless innings and the Cincinnati Reds cruised to a 10-0 win over Houston on Tuesday night, handing the Astros their 100th loss. Cincinnati is 4½ games ahead of Washington for second NL wild card.

The Astros are the first major league team to lose at least 100 games in three straight seasons since Kansas City from 2004-06. The Reds got to work early, with Zack Cozart driving in two runs in a four-run first inning. Cincinnati was up by five in the fourth before Bruce’s towering slam to the Crawford Boxes in left field pushed the lead to 9-0 and chased Jordan Lyles (7-8). Leake (14-6) allowed five hits over eight innings and struck out six with two walks. Sean Marshall, who hadn’t pitched since May 20 because of shoulder tendinitis, threw a perfect ninth to complete the shutout.

Michigan State at home this Saturday.

Home sweet home ND seeks to match longest home streak in 15 years SOUTH BEND (AP) — Notre Dame Stadium is a tough place to play again, thanks in part to Ozzy Osbourne’s “Crazy Train.” Coach Brian Kelly has made the “House that Rockne Built” a tough win after nearly a decade of mediocrity. The 22nd-ranked Fighting Irish (2-1) enter Saturday’s game against Michigan State (3-0) on a nine-game home winning streak, the longest such streak at the school since winning 10 straight under Bob Davie in 1997-98. Kelly made some subtle changes in how the team prepares for games, such as moving the

pregame Mass from the morning of the game to a day earlier. Some other small schedule changes were made to help the players, he said. “It’s given them the opportunity to regroup a little bit, focus in on the game and not all the other things that are going on around the campus,” he said. The school helped out by trying to enliven what is known as a quiet stadium by piping in music during the game, such as “Crazy Train” — a staple when the opponent is facing third down — and playing Dropkick Murphys’ “I’m Shipping Up to Boston” before the opening kickoff.

The university first started piping in music when Notre Dame played its first home night game in 21 years, a 31-17 loss to USC two years ago. The Irish haven’t lost at home since, going undefeated at home last season for the time since 1998. “They like that extra energy of the music,” Kelly said. Michigan has the nation’s longest home winning streak at 17 games, while South Carolina and Georgia are tied for second at 13 and Notre Dame’s streak is tied for sixth longest in the nation.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — Ian Kinsler and Elvis Andrus homered and drove in three runs each and the Texas Rangers snapped a seven-game losing streak with a 7-1 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays on Tuesday night. The Rangers pulled even with the Rays at the top of the AL wild-card race. The Rangers, who held the No. 1 wild-card spot or the AL West lead for most of the summer, won for only the fourth time in 17 games. Kinsler hit Jeremy Hellickson’s first pitch for his 12th home run, breaking a streak of seven homerless games for the Rangers, their longest in 23 years. The 1-0 lead marked the first time Texas has led in a game since its last victory, on Sept. 8. Kinsler added a two-run single in the Rangers’ four-run third, driving in three runs on the first two pitches he saw from Hellickson (11-9). Andrus followed with his third home run of the season to put the Rangers up 5-0. Alexi Ogando (7-4) won in his first start since Aug. 13, giving up two hits in five innings. He had made four relief appearances after spending three weeks on the disabled list with shoulder inflammation. Ogando retired the first seven Rays he faced, the last four with strikeouts, before Jose Lobaton homered in the third inning. Leonys Martin doubled twice and added a ninth-inning home run, his eighth of the season.

Late Scots goal beats Trine men BY KEN FILLMORE kfillmore@kpcmedia.com

KEN FILLMORE

Trine freshman Bill Wilson possesses the ball and shields it away from an Alma player in the Scots’ defensive third of the field during second half play of a Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association men’s soccer match Tuesday afternoon at Trine’s Weaver Field. Wilson scored his fourth goal of the season late in the first half, but the Thunder lost to Alma 4-3.

ANGOLA — Trine University’s men’s soccer team kept up with an undefeated Alma club Tuesday afternoon in the opening Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association match for both teams at Weaver Field. But the Scots got a late go-ahead goal from Chad Buitenhuis with 2 minutes, 53 seconds left and escaped with a 4-3 victory on the road to win their fifth straight match to start the season. “The guys are not used to scoring goals like this at Alma,” Scots coach Josh Oakley said. “Our defense left a lot to be desired. But to our credit, we overcame that. “I like to think that this was not our best effort. But the opponent had a lot to do with that. Trine made it difficult on us.” Alma (5-0, 1-0 MIAA) has now scored 25 goals in the midst of a possible turnaround season. It only had 22 goals in all of 2012 when it went 7-12-1. The Thunder (2-3-1, 0-1 MIAA) are a young team in transition. They were on the outside of the four-team MIAA Tournament mix last season in fifth place at 6-7-1 (8-10-1 overall). Among their graduation losses, they lost two key players up front in Andre

Hilson, a third team All-Central Region forward last year by the National Soccer Coaches Association of America, and Curtis Holcom. Trine had answers three times after Alma took one-goal leads on Tuesday. Freshman Bill Wilson and Samuel Seibolt scored late in the first half and the match was even at 2 at halftime. The Thunder made something out of not much as sophomore Nick Lang made a perfect shot from a little over 15 yards away inside the far left post to tie the game at 3 with a little over 13 minutes left. “That was a laser,” Oakley said. Trine had two big chances with around 6 and a half minutes left. Alma goalkeeper Graham Wallace punched a high direct free kick from freshman Zach O’Brien over the crossbar. Then a header from Chris Short off a Thunder corner kick went off the crossbar. Wallace dove to his right to rob Karston Shephard with a little over 20 minutes left in regulation. “Our offense is in stride,” Trine second-year coach Trevor Ferrell said. “We kind of dominated play for most of the first half. We played hard and finished our chances. But they were doing the same thing.” SEE TRINE, PAGE B2

IRISH: MSU

up next for ND FROM PAGE B1

Kelly got off to a rough start at Notre Dame Stadium, going 6-5 in his first 11 home games, including stunning losses to Tulsa and South Florida. But the problems started long before Kelly arrived. His predecessor, Charlie Weis, was just 19-14 at home — a 57.6 winning percentage. Under Weis, the Irish lost to Navy twice at home, and also fell to Air Force and Syracuse, the first eight-loss team to beat the Irish, and sustained the second worst loss in stadium history, a 38-0 defeat to Michigan in 2007. Before that, Tyrone Willingham was a mediocre 11-7 at Notre Dame Stadium, including a 37-0 loss to Florida State. Kelly believes the biggest change is the Irish players have taken on a tenacious attitude at home. “I’ve always wanted our teams to play hard for four quarters and just fight really hard and we’ll figure out a way to win the games,” he said. The streak, by Notre Dame standards, isn’t all that impressive. After all, Notre Dame won 40 straight at home from 1907 through 1918 and 38 straight under Knute Rockne, whose teams were 45-1-2 in South Bend. But after nine years of struggle, it’s a welcome change even for those who aren’t big fans of Ozzy Osbourne. NOTES: Starting defensive end Sheldon Day sprained his ankle against Purdue.

TRINE: Alma strikes with game-winner FROM PAGE B1

Buitenhuis had more space to work with before blasting what turned out to be the game-winning goal past Thunder goalie Chris Stewart. Shephard, a mainstay in the Thunder midfield, fell to the ground after getting spiked at the top of a foot as he competed for a ball with an Alma player. He hopped off the pitch after the goal and had that lower leg wrapped heavily. Ferrell said Shephard should be OK. Ferrell is more comfortable leading a college soccer program in his second season at the helm. The Angola High graduate is the son of former longtime Thunder men’s coach Mike Ferrell. Mike is Trevor’s assistant head coach. “There are a few things we have to shore up. But I’m happy with how things are coming together,” Trevor Ferrell said. “I have a good group of guys to work with.”

SPORTS BRIEFS • Colts put Donald Thomas on injured reserve list INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The Colts have placed left guard Donald Thomas on injured reserve and waived fullback Dan Moore. Thomas tore a quad tendon in his right leg during the first quarter of Sunday’s 24-20 loss to Miami. Coach Chuck Pagano said Monday that Thomas would undergo seasonending surgery. He is expected to be replaced in Indy’s lineup by rookie Hugh Thornton, a third-round draft pick. Moore signed with the Colts as an undrafted rookie in April after playing at Montana. He injured his shoulder early in training camp and was put on injured reserve after being waived Aug. 19 and clearing waivers. The Colts announced the moves on Tuesday.

Luck taking different tack with endorsement deals INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Andrew Luck isn’t taking endorsement calls. He’s making them. Five months after Luck first started using a new sports drink during offseason workouts, the Colts quarterback and Bodyarmor announced they had reached a multiyear agreement for Luck to promote the product. Contract details were not provided, though Luck will receive an equity stake in the company. The advertising campaign kicked off Tuesday and will soon include television commercials in Indy and other markets featuring the Colts’ franchise quarterback. After giving up his final year of eligibility at Stanford to enter the NFL draft, Luck had many opportunities to make big bucks endorsing major products. He turned most of them down, just like his predecessor in Indianapolis, Peyton Manning. Manning, Tiger Woods and others have become high-profile pitchmen for major products. Luck, however, has been picky about the brands he chooses. So far, he’s gone primarily after deals with lower-profile products that he uses and says he believes in. “I make sure I only do endorsement things for products I enjoy,” Luck said. While Luck may have lost out on the big paydays in the short-term, marketing experts believe Luck will be able to recoup that money in the long-term — if he continues to be successful on the field.

Pelicans training center finished in time for camp METAIRIE, La. (AP) — The New Orleans Pelicans’ new $15 million practice headquarters is complete and ready for training camp, which opens Oct. 1. The facility includes two full-size courts, player and staff locker rooms, a weight room, a stadium-style theater for video review, meeting rooms, a dining area and offices. The building sits on the same property as the practice headquarters and front offices for the New Orleans Saints. Both clubs are owned by Tom Benson, who received $10 million in state money for the Pelicans’ practice center. The state money was set aside in 2002, when the franchise, then known as the Hornets, moved to new Orleans from Charlotte. Meanwhile, team president Dennis Lauscha says the club has surpassed 12,000 in season tickets for the first time in New Orleans.

Fed court nixes N.J. appeal in sports betting case NEWARK, N.J. (AP) — A federal appeals court dealt another blow to New Jersey’s efforts to legalize sports gambling Tuesday, upholding a ruling that the state’s betting law conflicts with federal law and shouldn’t be implemented. The case was heard by a three-judge panel at the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia, and the state could seek to have the case re-heard by the full appeals court. But Tuesday’s ruling more likely means New Jersey’s last chance to legalize sports gambling is to ask the U.S. Supreme Court to hear the case. In March, U.S. District Judge Michael Shipp ruled that some of the questions raised in the case were novel, but he suggested the best way to change the U.S. law was to get Congress to repeal or amend the 1992 Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act. Tuesday’s appellate ruling, by a 2-1 majority, reinforced Shipp’s view. In a dissenting opinion, Judge Thomas Vanaskie agreed substantially with his two colleagues but differed in his interpretation of PASPA, a law that allowed state-sanctioned sports gambling only in Nevada and three other states. “PASPA attempts to implement federal policy by telling the states that they may not regulate an otherwise unregulated activity,” Vanaskie wrote. “The Constitution affords Congress no such power.” Gov. Chris Christie’s spokesman on Tuesday reiterated that the administration would take the case to the Supreme Court if necessary. “In the dissent, the judge agrees with New Jersey’s central argument — that the law is unconstitutional since it prevents sports betting in New Jersey against the wishes of its own elected officials and citizens,” spokesman Colin Reed said in an email. “This makes the issue all the more appropriate to be decided by the U.S. Supreme Court.”

Twerking to fame Thanks to the explosion of reality television, being famous no longer requires being talented. Being a train wreck also now qualifies a person to have his or her name thrown about the celebrity show circuit (aka circus). If you tan yourself into a orangeish shade of poor embalming, you can become famous. If you leave your children in your Range Rover while you enjoy a 12-pack at the bar, you can become famous. Or you could twerk, like former Disney poster child Miley Cyrus. The topic of recent conversation, I finally had to MATT ask around the office for a definition of what twerking GETTS is. No one at the office would divulge it to me. After some light research, I discovered that twerking is a suggestive dance. OK, that’s putting it mildly. Like describing ice as being slightly cool. Or the surface of the sun being lukewarm. For the sake of those around me, I have never been much of a dancer. Convulsive. That’s a good word to describe my technique. Seizure-like also fits. For a couple of weeks, Cyrus has made waves because of her dance moves on the MTV Video Music Cyrus was not lauded Awards for her singing talents show. Once after the show. She was upon a time, lauded for being dirty. Cyrus was the darling of the Disney Channel. She had her own show. It was wildly popular. She appeared wholesome, and her acting talent — such as it was — seemed fit for a cheesy, G-rated sitcom. The Disney show ran its course, and apparently young Miss Cyrus had to find something else to fill her time. So she went bawdy, to put it mildly. Which is her choice. She will get rich from it. Yawn. Judging the dance on its merits is not my thing. My thing is also not about the sexuality implied (aka overtly stated). A social conservative, I would not consider myself prudish. Sexuality, after all, pretty much is necessary to continue the existence of the human race. My thing is all the talk about what she did. Cyrus was not lauded for her singing talents after the show. She was lauded for being dirty. Sadly, we have all had a time in our lives when we wanted to be famous. I wanted to be a Major League Baseball player when I was very young. I saw the players on television, and it seemed an awesome opportunity. Athletic achievements take a back seat for air time when something like twerking comes along. Pretty much everyone has heard of Cyrus’ sexy dancing. Sex sells. It entices. Will it stand the test of time? Ask Britney Spears, who has all but dissolved from public view. Then look at the Rolling Stones. These guys have talent. They have endured because of it. Talent makes things happens. It builds things. It lifts the human spirit. Young people today want to be famous, just like we did when we were younger. They know they can get it by being perverse in public. Like it or not, Cyrus is a role model. And a poor one at that. Society, as a whole, seems bent on becoming famous, whatever it takes. What ever happened to wanting to be talented?

Area residents on the SLRWD sewer system are paying $80 a month to protect water quality, and are not happy that a proposed CAFO may be allowed to apply 2 million gallons of untreated manure directly to fields around our pristine lakes and wetlands. We don’t question Mr. Werner’s farming ability or good intentions, just the things he can’t control — like the weather, seepage into the ground water and air quality. We realize our weather is changing. Amost weekly large rainfalls are causing environmental disasters around the U.S. Fort Wayne has even had three 5-inch rainfall events this year. So the big question is what will happen to the 2 million gallons of raw nutrient-laden manure, if we have a large rainfall shortly after application?

I suspect the shrinkage these other programs would be much less than necessary to avoid large tax increases.

If public policy is supposed to help the poor, why issue annual checks to millionaires? Why not tailor the benefit to the poor?

Briefs • Mega Millions changing games for bigger prizes DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — If it seems that giant lottery jackpots have people lining up at convenience stores more frequently, just wait: More big payouts could be coming. Most attention has been on Powerball jackpots since the game’s rules were changed in early 2012 to boost payoffs. On Wednesday, Powerball’s estimated $400 million jackpot will be the nation’s fifth-largest ever. Now organizers of the country’s other big lottery, Mega Millions, are planning changes of their own. Although Mega Millions still holds the record for the largest jackpot in U.S. history — a $656 million prize in March 2012 — organizers are hoping to more regularly see huge jackpots by lessening the odds of winning big but upping a player’s shot at smaller but still hefty prizes. “Certainly, we were looking at the fact that changes that Powerball made, primarily by increasing the price point, it definitely favorably impacted the jackpot,” said Paula Otto, executive director for the Virginia Lottery and lead director for Mega Millions.

Tourists stranded by Mexico flooding ACAPULCO, Mexico (AP) — Emergency flights began arriving in Acapulco Tuesday to evacuate some of the tens of thousands of tourists stranded in the resort city by flooding and landslides that shut down the highway to Mexico City and swamped the international airport. The death toll rose to 38 from the combined punch of Tropical Storm Manuel, which hit Acapulco and hundreds of miles of Mexico’s Pacific Coast, and Hurricane Ingrid, which battered the Gulf Coast over the weekend. As many as 60,000 tourists, many of whom traveled from Mexico City for a long holiday weekend, found themselves stranded in Acapulco, with the airport flooded and highways blocked by landslides and flooding caused by Manuel.

People • Britney announces Vegas commitment NEW YORK (AP) — After months of rumors and hint-dropping, pop icon Britney Spears revealed what she called her “(not-so-) secret” news — she’s heading to Las Vegas. The 31-year-old pop star confirmed a two-year residency at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino on Spears ABC’s “Good Morning America” on Tuesday. “Britney: Piece of Me” will debut Dec. 27, just in time for Las Vegas’ massive New Year’s crowds. Spears announced 16 dates, but she will perform 50 shows each in 2014 and 2015. Spears was airlifted to a dry lake bed in the Nevada desert for the predawn announcement. About 1,300 people had been bused to the remote location in the wee hours of the morning, and were waiting for her dressed in Britney Spears T-shirts or the singer’s signature schoolgirl look from her “… Baby One More Time” music video. The Grammy-winning singer’s confirmation about the residency comes after much online speculation, including some of her own Vegas-themed tweets. She said in an interview on “GMA” that the show will feature her greatest hits as well as new material.

Russia still opposes force against Syria DAMASCUS, Syria (AP) — Russia insisted Tuesday that a U.N. Security Council resolution governing Syria’s handling of its chemical weapons not allow the use of force, but it suggested that could change if Damascus reneges on the deal to give up its stockpile. The main Syrian opposition coalition, meanwhile, urged the international community to take swift action against the regime of President Bashar Assad in response to a U.N. finding that the nerve agent sarin was used in a deadly attack near the capital last month. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said his country “spoke clearly” about rejecting the use of force when the chemical weapons agreement was worked out Saturday in Geneva between Washington and Moscow. The plan calls for an inventory of Syria’s chemical weapons within a week, with all components of the program out of the country or destroyed by mid-2014. But if signs emerge that Syria is not fulfilling the agreement or there are reports of further chemical weapons use, “then the Security Council will examine the situation,” Lavrov said, suggesting the issue could be reconsidered. U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said a resolution on the U.S.-Russia deal must be enforceable, telling reporters that the “most effective” way is under Chapter 7 of the U.N. Charter. That deals with threats to international peace and security and has provisions for enforcement by military or non-military means, such as sanctions. While in principle all Security Council resolutions are legally binding, Ban said, “in reality, we need clear guidelines under Chapter 7.”

Lavrov made his remarks at a news conference in Moscow with French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius. France and the U.S. say a military option remained on the table, and they are pushing for the U.N. resolution to reflect that. U.S. Mission spokeswoman Erin Pelton said the five permanent council members — the U.S., Russia, China, Britain and France — would meet later Tuesday on a draft resolution. On Monday, U.N. inspectors submitted a report on the Aug. 21 chemical weapons attack near Damascus that deepened the Syrian crisis. It was the first official confirmation by impartial experts that chemical weapons were used in the attack, which killed hundreds. The report confirmed that chemical weapons were used but did not ascribe blame, and Lavrov and Fabius differed sharply on their interpretations. “The report exposes the regime,” Fabius said. “On the basis of the information of our external agents, we consider that the report proves the responsibility of the regime for the chemical weapons attack of Aug. 21.” The U.S., Britain and France said evidence in the report — the type of rockets, the composition of the sarin agent, and trajectory of the missiles — showed that Assad’s government was responsible. The report said surface-to-surface rockets containing sarin were fired from an area where Syria’s military has bases, but said the evidence could have been manipulated in the rebel-controlled neighborhood that was hit. Russia, a staunch ally of the Syrian regime, disagreed with the West’s conclusions. Lavrov said Moscow has

U.S. poverty rate still at 15 percent WASHINGTON (AP) — The nation’s poverty rate remained stuck at 15 percent last year despite America’s slowly reviving economy, a discouraging lack of improvement for the record 46.5 million poor and an unwelcome benchmark for President Barack Obama’s recovery plans. More than 1 in 7 Americans were living in poverty, not statistically different from the 46.2 million of 2011 and the sixth straight year the rate had failed to improve, the Census Bureau reported Tuesday. Median income for the nation’s households was $51,017, also unchanged from the previous year after two consecutive annual declines, while the share of people without health

insurance did improve but only a bit, from 15.7 percent to 15.4 percent. “We’re in the doldrums, with high poverty and inequality as the new normal for the foreseeable future,” said Timothy Smeeding, an economics professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison who specializes in income inequality. “The fact we’ve seen no real recovery in employment and wages means we’ve just flatlined.” Mississippi had the highest share of its residents in poverty, at 22 percent, according to rough calculations by the Census Bureau. It was followed by Louisiana, New Mexico and Arkansas. On the other end of the scale, New Hampshire had the lowest share, at 8.1 percent.

Obama critical of those blocking tougher gun laws WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama’s spokesman on Tuesday criticized lawmakers who have stood in the way of expanded background checks for gun purchases and said the White House will continue to push the cause in the wake of the Washington Navy Yard shooting. Gun control proponents are citing Monday’s death of 13, including a gunman who opened fire at the military installation in the nation’s capital, to condemn Congress for failing to strengthen firearms laws. Yet there’s no sign that any of the lawmakers who

have successfully opposed stronger gun laws have change their position as a result or that momentum could be shifting in the debate. “We all witnessed the power of a narrow special interest to influence a vote against the will of 80-90 percent of the American people,” said White House press secretary Jay Carney. “And that’s the world that we live in, but we have to keep pressing forward.” Carney said lawmakers who oppose expanded background checks are taking cues from the gun lobby instead of serving their constituents.

“serious reason to suggest that this was a provocation” by the rebels. Ban called the report “the most significant confirmed use of chemical weapons against civilians since Saddam Hussein used them” against ethnic Kurds in Halabja, Iraq, in 1988. The main Syrian opposition group, the Westernbacked Syrian National Coalition, said the report clearly shows that only the Syrian regime could have carried out the attack, and it urged the U.N. to refer Syria to the International Criminal Court. “The Syrian coalition urges the Security Council to end the culture of impunity in Syria, and to stop the Syrian regime from carrying out further war crimes and crimes against humanity,” the coalition said. SNC president Ahmad al-Jarba said the U.N. resolution should force the destruction of Syria’s chemical weapons and also stop “the regime’s war machine by banning the use of its air force, missiles and artillery.”

on Syria with members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee Tuesday.

The Syrian Foreign Ministry slammed the U.S., Britain and France for demanding that Assad step down, denouncing “their frantic quest to impose their will” on Syria. “Assad is the legitimate president chosen by the Syrian people and will remain so as long as the Syrian people want this,” the statement said. Russia’s Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov traveled to Damascus to meet with Syrian Foreign Minister Walid al-Moallem. Russia’s ITAR-Tass news agency said Ryabkov would discuss the plan to dismantle chemical weapons. Fighting in the civil war raged on, with a car bomb wounding more than a dozen people in northern Syria at a border crossing with Turkey. The blast at the Bab al-Hawa frontier wounded 19 people, according to activist Ahmad al-Khatib in Idlib. Rami Abdul-Rahman, who heads the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, said 15 were wounded.

In February, a car bomb at the border post killed 14 and two car bombs in May on the Turkish side killed 43. Syria accused Turkey of escalating tensions by shooting down a Syrian military helicopter Monday. The military said the helicopter was monitoring cross-border infiltration of rebels when it “mistakenly” entered Turkish airspace. Turkey’s Deputy Prime Pinister Bulent Arinc said the aircraft was downed by a fighter jet after it ignored repeated warnings to leave Turkish airspace. South of Damascus, Syrian government troops backed by Lebanon’s militant group Hezbollah captured parts of the town of Chebaa, the Observatory said. Chebaa is also close to the Sayida Zeinab shrine that is sacred to Shiites. Syrian troops shelled rebel-held areas and sent reinforcements to the southern region of Quneitra near Syria’s Israeli-occupied Golan Heights, the Observatory said.

Reaching out to others might help with shyness DEAR ABBY: I’m a 14-year-old girl who just started high school. I started to notice boys when I was in middle school, and I’d like to start dating soon. The problem is I’ve never had a close friend who was a boy, and the idea isn’t natural to me. How can I ask a boy out if I don’t even grasp the concept of being friends with one? I’m frustrated over this, especially because I really like one particular guy. The only advice I have been given is, “Get over your fear and just TALK to him.” This isn’t very helpful to me. I want to know how to get over my fear! Abby, your thoughts would be appreciated. — CAN’T FIND THE NERVE IN OHIO DEAR CAN’T FIND THE NERVE: I’ll gladly share some thoughts.

Monitoring blood pressure can be done at home is where your blood pressure is on average. Before we had home blood pressure monitoring machines, the way a doctor determined if your blood pressure was controlled was to have you make a trip to his or her office.

The doctor ASK is supposed DOCTOR K. to estimate what your average blood is Dr. Anthony pressure all day and night Komaroff all based on one visit to the doctor’s office every several months.

not be representative. Home blood pressure machines make it easy to get a much better estimate of what your average blood pressure really is. The latest evidence for the benefits of home blood pressure monitoring comes from researchers who studied 450 people with hypertension. About half were given home blood pressure monitors that electronically sent readings to a secure website. The volunteers were asked to send six readings each week. Pharmacists analyzed that information and adjusted medications if needed or offered advice on lifestyle changes to lower blood pressure. The other volunteers received usual care from their primary care providers. At every step of the way, people in the home monitoring group had more success getting their blood pressure under control. The benefits persisted six months after the program had ended.

DEAR DOCTOR K: I have hypertension. Should I be monitoring my blood pressure at home? DEAR READER: You bet. It’s easy and inexpensive, and provides you and your doctor the information you need to protect your health. About one in three adults in the United States has high blood pressure, or hypertension. And about half of those with high blood pressure don’t have it under control. Hypertension increases the risk for heart disease and stroke. In my opinion, hypertension may be the most important public health problem in the United States, as it affects so many people. Recognizing and treating it brings enormous health benefits. You always have a blood pressure, every minute of the night and day, and it can change a lot from one moment to the next. What matters most to your health

You can buy a good home blood pressure monitor for under $100. Look for: • an automatic monitor that doesn’t require a stethoscope (it’s easier to use); • a monitor that takes the blood pressure reading using a cuff that fits around the upper arm; • a read-out large enough for you to see the numbers; • a seal of approval from a trusted organization. Ask your doctor, nurse or pharmacist for help in calibrating your monitor and learning how to use it. Also ask how often you should check your blood pressure, and share the results of your readings with your doctor. Finally, remember that home monitoring is not a substitute for regular physician checkups. DR. KOMAROFF is a physician and professor at Harvard Medical School. His website is AskDoctorK.com.

Gay marriage Colorado families wait, worry issue bringing strange alliances INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The battle over amending the Indiana Constitution to ban gay marriage is splitting pretty clearly along ideological lines but making for some odd pairings of otherwise partisan foes. When opponents of the amendment launched their campaign last month, they tapped a veteran Republican operative, Megan Robertson, to lead the charge. They then announced this week they had hired the director of the Democratic Party’s field operations, Peter Hanscom. Supporters, meanwhile, are counting on a base of conservative and rural Democrats to bolster their already strong position among legislative Republicans. “This isn’t an issue that’s divided on party lines so much,” said Robertson, campaign manager of Freedom Indiana, the group leading the fight against the amendment. “It’s a different kind of issue than what you see typically being discussed at the Statehouse. It’s something where people can really come together regardless of what party they’re from,” she said. Indiana already limits marriage to being between one man and one woman. But supporters are fearful a judge could overturn the state law, in part relying on this past summer’s Supreme Court decision. The first part of what

of the missing remains elusive, with state and county agencies sometimes reporting conflicting totals. Colorado officials listed 1,253 people missing statewide at one point Monday and then updated it to just 658 later in the afternoon. Most of the missing were in Larimer and Boulder counties, which lie north of Denver and are dotted with self-reliant mountain hamlets where privacy-conscious residents live in remote homes difficult to access even in ideal conditions. Boulder County has assigned 10 police detectives to search for the missing. Officials are struggling to gauge how many people might actually be in danger as they field hundreds of calls from relatives, friends, estranged siblings and also near-strangers. Rescuers and shelter workers are taking down lists of evacuees to feed to county officials, and people are asked to call in when they locate their relatives. Federal officials Monday repeatedly implored people affected by the flooding to call and reassure their loved ones. In the funky mountain town of Lyons, stranded residents were unsure how to communicate their status. Telephone landlines were knocked out as floodwater rushed in Wednesday, and most people’s cellphones died long ago. One man drove with his young son past the shuttered shops on a muddy and abandoned Main Street searching for guidance.
