GOOD MORNING Storm kills 13 in Britain, Europe LONDON (AP) — A savage coastal storm powered by hurricaneforce gusts slashed its way through Britain and western Europe on Monday, felling trees, flooding lowlands and snarling traffic in the air, at sea and on land. At least 13 people were reported killed. It was one of the worst storms to hit the region in years. The deadly tempest had no formal name — and wasn’t officially classified as a hurricane due to a meteorological standard — but it was dubbed the St. Jude storm (after the patron saint of lost causes) and stormageddon on social networks. Gusts of 99 miles per hour were reported on the Isle of Wight in southern England, while gusts up to 80 mph hit the British mainland. Later in the day, the Danish capital of Copenhagen saw record gusts up of to 120 mph and an autobahn in central Germany was shut down by gusts up to 62 mph.

EMS proposes combined station By Aaron Organ aorgan@kpcmedia.com AUBURN — County officials are considering an early proposal to consolidate the Garrett and Auburn EMS hubs into a single site at a new building west of Interstate 69. EMS head Randy Fox approached the DeKalb County Council on Monday to pitch a plan to build a new EMS building between Auburn and Garrett, likely near S.R. 8. The 12,000-square-foot building would include six garage bays, room to sleep four people, a training room and offices.

It would merge Auburn and Garrett EMS stations into one unit, a plan that has been discussed by county officials for nearly five years. There is now a sense of urgency, however. Within a year, DeKalb Health hospital has planned a major renovation of space around the current building that houses Auburn’s EMS station. Miller’s Merry Manor, which houses

Council hears airport complaints AUBURN — The DeKalb County Council passed the county’s 2014 budget on third and final reading Monday. It includes an $8.27 million general fund and a $2 million highway fund. The council met Monday, rather than on the first Monday of the month as regularly scheduled, to meet the state’s deadline for passing a budget. It will not meet in November.

Europe considering sanctions over spying BERLIN (AP) — The United States could lose access to an important law enforcement tool used to track terrorist money flows, German officials said Monday, as Europe weighs a response to allegations that the Americans spied on their closest European allies. Spain became the latest U.S. ally to demand answers after a Spanish newspaper reported that the National Security Agency monitored more than 60 million phone calls in that country during one month alone. The report Monday in the daily El Mundo came on the heels of allegations of massive NSA spying in France and Germany, including Chancellor Angela Merkel’s own cellphone.

The council also approved a $310,000 appropriation for the county assessor’s office into a new reassessment fund to cover the final six months of the year. The county’s old reassessment fund had just over $56,000 in it, but when the new reassessment fund started July 1, 2013, the county had to replenish the appropriations. Residents reportedly mistook

Historic steam locomotive No. 765 made two round trips between Fort Wayne and Lafayette last weekend, hauling more than 1,400 passengers and retracing the route of the famous Wabash Cannonball passenger train. The rear

cars on the train came from the New York Central Railroad’s 20th Century Limited, which operated through DeKalb County as one of the nation’s premier passenger trains.

Steam train revives history FORT WAYNE (AP) — Hundreds of people from around the country have experienced what country singer Roy Acuff called “the jingle, the rumble and the roar” of a Wabash Cannonball. More than 1,400 people turned out over the weekend to ride the train built in 1944 from Fort Wayne to West Lafayette. The locomotive is one of only a handful in the United States still in working condition. It was

restored by the Fort Wayne Historical Railroad Museum. The train carried 22 tons of coal and 2,200 gallons of water for the round trip to West Lafayette. Museum communication manager Kelley Lynch says the weekend trip marked the first passenger train to depart Fort Wayne in 20 years. The trip retraced the route of the famous Wabash Cannonball passenger train.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The fight over renewing the nation’s farm bill has centered on cuts to the $80 billion-a-year food stamp program. But there could be unintended consequences if no agreement is reached: higher milk prices. Members of the House and Senate are scheduled to begin long-awaited negotiations on the five-year, roughly $500 billion bill this week. If they don’t finish it, dairy supports could expire at the end of the year and send the price of a gallon of milk skyward. There could be political ramifications, too. The House and Senate are far apart on the sensitive issue of how much money to cut from food stamps, and lawmakers are hoping to resolve that debate before election-year politics set in. Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar, a Democrat who is one of the negotiators on the bill, says the legislation could also be a rare opportunity for the two chambers to show they can get along. “In the middle of the chaos of the last month comes opportunity,” Klobuchar says of the farm legislation. “This will really be a test of the House of whether they are willing to work with us.” The farm bill, which sets policy for farm subsidies, the food stamps SEE FARM BILL, PAGE A5

Democrats meet for Jefferson-Jackson Dinner BY SUE CARPENTER scarpenter@kpcmedia.com

GARRETT — Outnumbered and outfinanced, Democrat contender Glenda Ritz said she ran a grassroots campaign to defeat incumbent Dr. Tony Bennett in the 2012 election for state superintendent of public instruction. When funds ran out for printed signs, teachers fashioned homemade signs for her campaign, she said. “It wasn’t about fancy mailers or television ads,” Ritz told DeKalb County Democrats at Saturday’s Jefferson-Jackson Dinner at Garrett Country Club. “It’s who shows up at the polls.” Ritz described how she has organized a large group of educators to ensure elected people keep education moving in the right direction. She aims to provide equity in education, with focused, student-centered programs. Ritz

also shared her outreach program for school improvement with 13 coordinators thoughout the state to know every school in Indiana. “Education, to me, is the cornerstone of being a Democrat. It’s our entire public education system,” she said. But as one of only a few Democrats in the state government, she has found moving her programs forward has been a challenge. “It would be nice to have some friends over there in the Statehouse,” Ritz said. “I knew what I was signing up for, and I will tell you, it’s a good fit for me.” She listed a number of education policy committees on which she has served, statewide and nationally. “You have to stay involved. You need to make your voice be heard,” Ritz said. SEE DEMOCRATS, PAGE A5

Steuben man pleads guilty to murder charge BY AMY OBERLIN aoberlin@kpcmedia.com

Construction crews work on repair and maintenance of the Pokagon State Park toboggan run tower in this Oct. 20 photo. Extensive work on the tower and

refrigeration system has been done in anticipation of the run opening Nov. 29, the traditonal day-after-Thanksgiving start of toboggan season at Pokagon.

Pokagon slide gets upgrade BY MIKE MARTURELLO mmarturello@kpcmedia.com

LAKE JAMES — More than $100,000 in reconstruction on the Pokagon State Park toboggan run tower and the slide’s refrigeration system has been done prior to the start of this year’s season. For several weeks, contractors have been active doing repairs and preventive maintenance on the park’s refrigerated toboggan run tower. The run is just one of two in the Midwest and the only refrigerated toboggan run in Indiana. “It will be frozen and open for fun just one month from today, Nov. 29, the day after Thanksgiving,” said Fred Wooley, Pokagon’s interpretive naturalist. This is the first major work done on the tower since the metal-framed structure

was built in 1974, said Ted Bohman, park manager. Park officials said the track became refrigerated in 1971. It originally was built during the 1930s by Civilian Conservation Corps workers. The old steel tracks and refrigeration system were rebuilt starting in 1984. Due to major problems with the rebuild, the track did not open for the 1985 season. It reopened for the 1986 season. Park officials also report that job openings remain to work both the toboggan run and cross-country ski rental for the winter season, which runs from late November to the end of February. The work is mostly Friday nights and weekends and days between winter holidays. For more information, call the park at 833-2012.

Clinic targets rare disorders Amish population especially at risk BY PATRICK REDMOND predmond@kpcmedia.com

TOPEKA — A blue ribbon carefully taped between two posts was neatly cut Saturday morning, officially opening the new Community Health Clinic in Topeka, although the independent health office has been seeing patients since September. Nearly five years in the planning, the clinic is unique, its manager says, specializing in treating and understanding the rare medical needs of many patients who suffer genetic disorders. The clinic is on Lehman Street on the northern edge of town, sharing a building with a Topeka physician, Dr. John Egli. “We’re a genetics clinic, aimed at helping the Amish, Mennonite and rural community, especially those with metabolic disorders,” said Jared Beasley, operations manager for the facility. Founders of the clinic the Amish tend to have an increased risk for having children with rare genetic disorders. “There are a lot of what we call metabolic conditions, and the reason why is there is a lot them is because they are recessed conditions, meaning they happen when the parents are carriers for that condition,” said Dr. Zineb Ammous, a clinical geneticist and staff physician at CHC. “And because, obviously, the Amish tend to marry from within the same community, there is higher prevalence for genetic conditions.” According to statistics provided by the clinic, northeast Indiana is the home to more than 35,000 Amish residents, and those communities tend to be home to a “disproportionately large number of children with inherited and non-inherited genetic disorders.”

In small communities, typically rare genetic and chromosomal disorders are somewhat more likely to be expressed. The bulk of the patients now coming through the clinic’s doors are children. Many of the conditions seen at the clinic are so rare they are almost unheard of in the general population. They include a host of metabolic issues that disrupt the normal chemical reactions that turn food into energy. That includes disorders such as galactosemia, a disease interrupting the body’s ability to process galactose, a simple sugar. Galactosemia is caused by a mutation on a particular gene, and Ammous may cause life-threatening complications in newborns within a few days after their birth. Another disorder, nonketotic hyperglycinemia, also known as NKH, is exceedingly rare in the general population but is now appearing with uncommon frequency among the plain population. CHC officials said one local family has two daughters identified with the once-rare disorder. The first daughter was born in 2000, at a time when there were only 167 known cases of NKH across the globe. Since then, 16 more cases of the disorder have been documented in northeast Indiana alone. In fact, a 10-mile area of northern Indiana has the world’s largest concentration of patients with NKH. Medical professionals are seeing dozens of other rare genetic diseases within the local population, as well, clinic officials said. The Community Health Clinic manager said its mission is to help patients understand their conditions, treat them when possible

and help mitigate the damage diseases would inflict if left untreated. Similar clinics exist in Lancaster, Pa., and Holmes County, Ohio, two more major centers of Amish populations. “We provide some counseling and diet management for the patient, so that they may get to the age of 20 and find they don’t have irreversible heart and kidney damage,” Beasley explained. “And then they may not have the health crisis that tends to happen once or twice a year to these patients which put them in the hospital. So, preventing those type of things long-range really takes the cost out of health care. We’re preventing the exacerbations, the irreversible damage, the long-term problems many of these conditions create when they’re not tightly managed.” While the clinic is an independently operated organization, it has created a relationship with Parkview Health and Parkview LaGrange Hospital. Though many of the conditions that come through the clinic’s doors are incurable, the conditions may be manageable by controlling a patient’s diet and ensuring he or she understands the disease. That can avoid a real medical crisis. “We’re aimed specifically at prevention of crisis due to genetic disorders,” Beasley said. “Part of the need is not only the volume of patients that experience these kind of conditions, it is also an economic need. By managing these genetic disorders, we can significantly reduce the need for what I’ll call crisis intervention or expensive hospitalization, or the need for travel to large specialty clinics outside the area. “These kind of crisis can be prevented through good management,” he said, “and that’s part of what we’re here to help with.”

ANGOLA — A Jimmerson Lake man admitted to murder during a court hearing Monday morning. After backing out of a plea hearing Friday afternoon, Mark Zachery Hines, 28, went through with his guilty plea in Steuben Circuit Court. The hearing was set for 8 a.m. Hines and his attorney, Anthony Kraus, continued to discuss the plea agreement for about a half-hour before the public was admitted to the courtroom around 8:30 a.m. Steuben County chief deputy prosecutor Jeremy Musser presented a deal that calls for a 45-year sentence

for Hines’ admission to murder. Other counts pending against Hines, which include two habitual offender allegations that could have substantially lengthened his sentence under other felony convictions, Hines would be dismissed. Hines admitted to knowingly and intentionally killing Ruben Sanchez July 7. According to court documents, Hines used a .40-caliber pistol supplied by Tyler Lee Biggs, 18, of Jimmerson Lake, to kill Sanchez, 29, in the

front yard of the home where he had been living at Jimmerson Lake. Biggs, who has retained counsel from a Fort Wayne law firm, is set for a final pretrial conference Nov. 25 in Circuit Court. His jury trial is set for Dec. 16-20. Judge Allen Wheat took Hines’ admission under advisement, and he will remain in Steuben County Jail with no bail. A sentencing hearing is set for Nov. 18, the week Hines’ jury trial had been scheduled to start. The murder charge carried up to a 65-year sentence and an accompanying charge of conspiracy to commit murder was a Class A felony, punishable by up to 50 years in prison.

RISE adds sensory rooms BY JENNIFER DECKER jdecker@kpcmedia.com

ANGOLA — Ron Imbody has a knack for remembering everyone’s name and birthday and reciting facts from television game shows — years later. A RISE Inc. client, Imbody is autistic. He sat in RISE’s new sensory room Friday holding a lap pad that comforted him. He slightly rocked back and forth, grinning the whole time with contentment from feeling it. RISE serves developmentally disabled clients from Steuben and DeKalb counties. Adding the sensory room came in response for the need to serve autistic clients, RISE Executive Director Denise Payton said. RISE received a grant to fund the room from the Cornerstone Foundation for Autism. Autism is a developmental disability affecting communication and interacting with others. Sixteen RISE clients are either low-spectrum or autistic, Payton said. “The autistic are quiet and like calmness,” Payton said. “We knocked a hole in the wall and combined two rooms. The separation has done wonders. We built this room with a lot of added research, as everything’s based on sensory.” Payton explained the lap pad that Imbody was holding serves to calm a client, as it’s colorful with glitter inside, plastic and squishy to touch. Beanbag chairs serve the same function. “They like the hugging sensation. The hammock does the same thing,” Payton said.

Payton pointed out one table built in the RISE workshop has such sensory items as sand, rice and Play Dough. “Our adult activity room is to keep up with fine-motor skills. They do arts and crafts,” Payton said. The sensory room also has magnetic covers over fluorescent lights to make them dimmer, as those who are autistic are sensitive to bright light. As Payton talked, clients were using the rooms. Sarah Myers, a five-year RISE client, smiled and did piece work. Myers spoke quietly, spelling her name and saying how much she liked the sensory rooms. Another client, Brittany Smith, relaxed on a beanbag chair and played an electric keyboard. Amanda Book serves as the RISE adult day activities instructor. She played cards with a male client, who joked he didn’t have any cards up his sleeve, then laughed. “It’s different,” Book said about working with the autistic. “You never know what’s going to go on. It keeps you on your toes.” One thing Book said she’s learned in her job is the importance of patience in dealing with clients. “I have two kids, but I learn so much from these guys. You have to find the root of why they don’t feel good. You put the pieces together,” Book said. “I’ve learned more about autism. I really look things up and piece them together.” Book said an important part of her job is “how we keep them comfortable in their own skin,” she said. When clients come into the rooms, Book said, they work on eye-hand coordi-

nation, have coffee and discuss the news, cook or have a learning experience such as farming or how to measure food ingredients. “The last 45 minutes is their time. We turn up the music, and some just want to talk or dance around,” Book said. “We always have the music going. Their favorite is music from 1956-60. I get into it, so I dance around with them. “I think there’s a misconception that people think autistic people aren’t book-smart or commonsense smart,” Book said, adding that’s simply not true. For more details on RISE or the sensory room, call 665-9408. According to the Autism Society, autism spectrum disorder is prevalent in one in 88 births. It’s the fastest-growing developmental disability, found in 1 percent of the U.S. population of children ages 3-17.

IU joins fight against gay marriage ban BLOOMINGTON (AP) — Indiana University has joined a bipartisan campaign fighting a proposed state constitutional amendment to ban same-sex marriages. The university said Monday it was joining Freedom Indiana, a coalition that includes Eli Lilly & Co., Cummins Inc. and the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce. IU President Michael McRobbie says the amendment would turn some prospective employees away and increase the state’s challenges remaining economically competitive.

County coping with spill BY AARON ORGAN aorgan@kpcmedia.com

AUBURN — The Indiana Department of Environmental Management has taken over the investigation into a major fuel leak at the DeKalb County highway department on Nineteenth Street in Auburn, as county officials scramble to learn how much fuel seeped into the earth and nearby Cedar Creek. The DeKalb County Council on Monday approved paying an environmental consultant $104,611 to determine what level of spill occurred at the above-ground tank and install a bevy of wells to monitor to situation there. Fort Wayne-based Environmental Remediation Services also will oversee any contractors hired by IDEM to treat the spill. The county has paid $30,000 since June to investigate and excavate the spill site. County Homeland Security director Roger Powers told the council 524 tons of contaminated soil have been excavated from the site, leaving a hole 40-by-44 feet and 8 feet deep. Powers said after the leak was discovered this summer, it was planned that excavation would take one day. He said it turned into a much larger

project “because as we kept digging, we kept finding fuel everywhere down there.” Powers said piping was installed during excavating “because fuel was coming in from all directions in this hole.” Powers told the council IDEM has said no additional soil needs to be removed. Commissioner Don Grogg told the council the problem became so severe, it had to be made public. “Once we started realizing we had a problem, there was no use trying to hide it,” Grogg said. “We had to expose it, even though it was something that’d hurt us personally. We had to expose that there was a problem down there.” Powers said an unused underground fuel tank installed in 1950 may have caused the leak. When the tank was decommissioned in 1990 in favor of the current above-ground tank, it was filled with concrete. Powers said when the old tank was examined, it had concrete protruding from holes, suggesting the holes were there before it was decommissioned and filled with concrete. “We think that was the culprit of most of the fuel we’re finding in the ground,” Powers said. An Environmental Remediation Services

official told the council Monday that crews have taken four different soil samplings from the site to determine whether the leak was gasoline or diesel fuel, leaded or unleaded, to draw an idea of the fuel’s age. The official also said testing is being performed on the waters of Cedar Creek, which flows 275 feet from the leak site. Environmental Remediation Services has placed booms in the creek to catch fuel if any does leach into the stream, the official said. Powers said a hole was dug 20 feet from the creek and a pocket of fuel was found, and a sheen on the creek’s surface has been reported. The council gave the county commissioners authority to pay for a portion of the project with cumulative capital fund dollars and the remainder from the rainy day fund if IDEM issues an order, which is expected. If necessary, the county will fund it with an additional appropriation. The immediate project likely will not be the end of the story. The consultant told the council it can take a number of years to fully comprehend the leak’s impact, and it can’t be determined yet what a full-scale cleanup will cost.

EMS: Auburn crew makes 45% of calls in county the Garrett EMS unit, has planned a future expansion that likely will include the area now occupied by EMS. The projects would leave the two EMS units effectively homeless. “For the last three or four years I’ve been saying it’s going to happen, it’s going to happen, and the urgency now exists that it’s going to happen,” Fox told the council. “Auburn for sure, Garrett’s very, very likely — so we need to be proactive with some kind of a plan for

how to do this.” Fox said a building west of I-69 would provide a “central location” for ambulances to serve Auburn, Garrett and the surrounding areas. Any consolidation would not impact Butler’s EMS unit, which will remain in its location, Fox said. Fox said the plan is “speculation” at this point, with no locations in mind. Fox said he hasn’t found any buildings in Garrett or Auburn that would be appropriate for renovation to

house EMS. Consolidating the two services could save money. Fox said the Auburn EMS crew makes 45 percent of calls in the county, and effectively adding an ambulance to that mix would help level the work load and dial back overtime costs. The council voiced its support for the project. It instructed Fox to work out a plan and keep the county commissioners in the loop.

COUNCIL: Airport asked to itemize its request FROM PAGE A1

the advertised assessor’s appropriation for one for the DeKalb County Airport, and they called and wrote several council members throughout the week to voice displeasure, members reported. The council did discuss a proposed appropriation for the airport — $160,000 for capital projects including the runway extension project, power line relocation and wetland mitigation. After a lengthy discussion Monday, the council denied the appropriation. It asked the airport to submit an

itemized description of each project. Residents packed the courthouse meeting room to discuss the airport’s planned power line relocation project, which has some residents upset because American Electric Power plans to move and upgrade its transmission lines near the airport to sites directly on and above residential properties. The airport has an agreement with AEP to move the lines for $2.6 million as part of the airport’s planned runway

extension project, because the lines would interfere with flight patterns. The electric utility has planned to move the lines whether the runway extension occurs or not, but the airport has agreed to pay to have them moved sooner to move its own project along. The cost would be reimbursed by the Federal Aviation Administration from user fees. The residents told the council taxpayers should not fund an upgrade to electrical service and said the council should be more strict with its appropriations.

Marjorie Melton BRYAN, Ohio — Marjorie K. Melton, 89 years, of Bryan, passed away Sunday, October 27, 2013, at Hillside Country Living, Bryan. Marjorie was born November 27, 1923, in Mrs. Melton Defiance, Ohio, the daughter of the late Howard and Ethel (Smith) Lang. She was a 1941 graduate of Defiance High School. She married John L. Melton on October 22, 1949, in Defiance, and he preceded her in death on August 6, 2012. Marjorie was a receptionist and bookkeeper for her husband’s company, John L. Melton Motor Sales. She was a member of St. Patrick Catholic Church

FARM: Ag-state lawmakers want Congress to pass major legislation FROM PAGE A1

and other rural development projects, has moved slowly through Congress in the last two years as lawmakers have focused on higher-profile priorities, like budget negotiations, health care and immigration legislation. But farm-state lawmakers are appealing to their colleagues to harken back to more bipartisan times and do something Congress hasn’t done very much lately — pass a major piece of legislation. Even President Barack Obama, who has been largely silent on the farm bill as it has wound through Congress, said as the government reopened earlier this month that the farm bill “would make a huge difference in our economy right now.” “What are we waiting for?” Obama said. “Let’s get this done.” The main challenge in getting the bill done will be the differences on food stamps, officially called the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP. The House has passed legislation to cut around $4 billion annually, or around 5 percent, including changes in

eligibility and work requirements. The Senate has proposed a cut of around a tenth of that amount, and Senate Democrats and President Obama have strongly opposed any major changes to the program. The cost of SNAP has more than doubled over the last five years as the economy struggled, and Republicans say it should be more focused on the neediest people. Democrats say it is working as it should, providing food to those in need when times are tough. “I think there are very different world views clashing on food stamps and those are always more difficult to resolve,” says Roger Johnson, president of the National Farmers Union. Johnson says coming together on the farm issues, while there are differences, will be easier because the mostly farm-state lawmakers negotiating the bill have common goals. Passing a farm bill could help farm-state lawmakers in both parties in next year’s elections, though some Republicans are wary of debating domestic food aid in campaign season.

DEMOCRATS: Odier announces second run for Statehouse seat FROM PAGE A1

For Charles “Charlie” Odier, running for the Indiana House District 52 seat will be different in his second attempt. Odier, who is chairman of the DeKalb County Democrats and vice-chair of District 3, listed four things in his favor this time around: “The Republican Party, the Tea Party, the screw-ups from (Gov.) Mike Pence — and the backlash is coming,” he said to the cheers of supporters. “I know it’s coming — 1.3 million voters that are (angry). And I’ve got a hope I’ve got 10 percent of them,” said Odier, of rural St. Joe.

He was defeated by state Rep. Ben Smaltz, R-Auburn, by a 71-29 percent margin in the 2012 election. “You have to go out and talk to the people. It’s the grass roots. You don’t need your name in lights, or all over the TV. You have to be the one who goes to every house, in every community, and say, look, I’m a working stiff just like you and I will stand up for us,” Odier said. Michael Claytor, candidate for state auditor, and Justin Kuhnle, candidate for the 3rd District seat in the U.S. House of Representatives, also appeared at Saturday’s dinner.

and the Altar and Rosary Society, as well as the Ladies Circles at church. She was also a member of the Bryan Eagles Aerie 2233. Marjorie was a Cub Scout Den Mother. She enjoyed water skiing, life at the lake and spending time at Mark and Jana’s Alpaca Farm. Marjorie loved to play bridge and bingo. Surviving are her three sons, Jack (Mary) Melton of Port Charlotte, Florida, Dan (Shelley) Melton of Angola, Indiana, and Mark (Jana) Melton of Wabash, Indiana; five grandchildren, Shannon Melton of Bryan, Heather Melton of Bryan, Tara Melton of Austin, Texas, David Melton, in the United States Navy of Norfolk, Virginia, and Christina Melton of Louisville, Kentucky; and one great-grandson, Donald Eugene (Trae) Guilford of Bryan. Visitation for Marjorie K. Melton will be held on Wednesday, October 30, 2013, from 2–4 and 6–8 p.m. in the Oberlin-Turnbull Funeral Home, 206 N. Lynn St., Bryan, where the rosary will be recited at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday evening. Funeral services for Marjorie K. Melton will be held at 11 a.m. Thursday, October 31, 2013, in St. Patrick Catholic Church, 610 S. Portland St., Bryan, with Father Jim Halleron officiating. Private interment will follow on Thursday afternoon in Fountain Grove Cemetery, Bryan.

Lester pitches Boston into 3-2 Series lead ST. LOUIS (AP) — Jon Lester smothered St. Louis on four hits into the eighth, David Ross hit a tiebreaking RBI double in a two-run seventh inning off Adam Wainwright and the Boston Red Sox beat the Cardinals 3-1 Monday night to take a 3-2 World Series lead. David Ortiz’s RBI double in the first put the Red Sox ahead until Matt Holliday hit his second home run of the Series in the fourth, ending a 16 1-3 inning Series scoreless streak for Lester dating to 2007. In a rematch of the opener, won by the Red Sox 8-1, Lester again beat Wainwright, striking out seven and walking one in 7 2-3 innings. Koji Uehara got four

outs to finish the four-hitter for his second save. Boston can win its third title in a decade on Wednesday night, when the Series resumes at Fenway Park — where the Red Sox haven’t won a championship on their home field since 1918. John Lackey starts for Boston and rookie Michael Wacha for St. Louis in a rematch of Game 2, won by the Cardinals 4-2. A pair of unique endings — the first postseason games to finish with an obstruction call and a pickoff — left players wondering what strange events would be next. They did know the Series would go back to Boston’s Fenway Park

on Wednesday night, when John Lackey starts for the Red Sox and rookie Michael Wacha for the Cardinals. Wacha got the victory and Lackey the loss in Game 2, won by the Cardinals 4-2. In the 42 previous times the Series has been tied 2-2, the Game 5 winner has gone on to take the title 27 times — but just three of the last 10. Wainwright fell behind nine pitches in. Dustin Pedroia doubled with one out, sending a hanging curveball into left field. Ortiz pulled the next pitch between Allen Craig and first base and down the right field line. Xander Bogaerts singled with

Briefly • NEW YORK (AP) — Peter Budaj made 27 saves for his 11th career NHL shutout, and Tomas Plekanec and Alex Galchenyuk provided all the offense Montreal needed as the Canadiens spoiled the New York Rangers’ long-awaited home opener with a 2-0 victory Monday night. The 31-year-old Budaj was on the top of his game despite playing in place of No. 1 goalie Carey Price for only the second time this season and first since Oct. 10 at Edmonton when he stopped 27 of 28 shots in a win. Plekanec scored the decisive goal on a power play in the second period. Budaj made it stand up for Montreal (7-5). AP

Denver Broncos wide receiver Wes Welker (83) gets tackled by Indianapolis Colts free safety

Darius Butler (20) during the second half of an NFL football game Oct. 20 in Indianapolis.

Break over for Colts INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Colts coach Chuck Pagano walked into a refreshed meeting room Monday. Players were focused, excited and eager to get back to work as they embark on a critical two-week stretch that could dictate their fate in the AFC South. No, one week wasn’t enough to get everyone healthy, but it was long enough to give these players time to rest, recover and recharge before turning their competitive switch back on. “You’ve got to, you’re a professional,” cornerback Darius Butler said. “Even on the off time, you’re still watching film, still rehabbing, still talking to some of the guys. You’ve always got to stay tuned in and you’re right back to it on Monday.” Little had changed since Pagano rewarded the Colts (5-2) for last week’s win over Peyton Manning and previously unbeaten

Denver by giving them one full week away from practice — rather than just the four days required by NFL rules. Tennessee (3-4) and Houston (2-5) both had bye weeks, too, leaving the AFC South title chase in exactly the same place the Colts left it. Indy (5-2) was dealing with yet another homecoming, Andrew Luck’s return to Houston where he played prep football, as they prepared for the two-time defending division champs. And the Colts were still preparing for life without Reggie Wayne. The perennial Pro Bowl receiver, who is eighth in league history in receptions (1,006) and had season-ending surgery Friday for a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee. It’s the first time since 2002 that the Colts put together a game plan without Wayne in the mix.

“He’s in good spirits, rehabbing three times a day, grinding it out as we would all expect. He’s doing well,” Pagano said. “He’ll be back here eventually. As soon as they let him, he’s good enough to travel and all that stuff.” In the meantime, the Colts must replace his productivity. Darrius Heyward-Bey, Oakland’s first-round pick in 2008, and T.Y. Hilton, a second-year receiver who led all rookies in TD receptions (seven) and set a franchise rookie record with five 100-yard games last season, will both be asked to do more. Tight end Coby Fleener, a second-round pick in 2012 who has played the past six seasons with Luck, is likely to play a bigger role in the offense, too. On Monday, the Colts made it clear they expect another key cog from the Stanford class of 2012 SEE COLTS, PAGE B2

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (AP) — Indiana isn’t complaining about college football’s quirky schedule this season. They used a second bye week to their advantage, and the timing couldn’t have been better. After losing two straight games, the Hoosiers (3-4, 1-2 Big Ten) are counting on extra preparation time to start a season-ending surge that will allow them to grab a rare bowl bid and avoid the finish they had last season. “It was a good open week,” coach Kevin Wilson said. “We had a lot of things I thought we needed to work on. We had a chance to look at getting some guys well and bringing some of our young players along. Five-game stretch, three at home, you want to have some energy.” In 2012, Indiana had just one bye week in mid-September. The Hoosiers lost the final three games after a 4-5 start put them in position to reach the postseason for the first time since 2007. Defensive lineman Bobby Richardson believes an additional week off in late October will help the team avoid a fade. “It gave us a chance to get our legs back, get our arms back,” Richardson said. “Rest up. That was a week we weren’t as physical. We were getting more focused and watching film to prepare.” The defense focused on stopping the run, a major issue so far as the Hoosiers have allowed a leagueworst 221 yards per game. Running backs Jeremy Langford of Michigan State and Fitzgerald Toussaint of Michigan enjoyed career days against the Hoosiers, and the schedule presents more challenges. The Hoosiers open a two-game home stand Saturday against Minnesota, a team that averages nearly 5 yards per carry, and then face Illinois. Indiana follows that up by traveling to No. 22 Wisconsin and its dynamic duo of Melvin Gordon and James White.

Bulls, Heat kick off NBA season tonight MIAMI (AP) — LeBron James gets another ring. Derrick Rose gets to play again. In simplest terms, let that serve as the teaser for what’s going to happen on Tuesday night when the Miami Heat raise their second straight championship banner and third one overall just before opening the season against the Chicago Bulls, one of their biggest rivals. The Heat will get their rings in an elaborate pregame ceremony, one that everyone — well, almost everyone — inside the building will be watching. The Bulls plan to stay in their locker room for the festivities, and it’s somewhat logical to think they’ll be spending part of that time verbalizing some sort of sentiment about emerging and spoiling the party. “We don’t like them and they don’t like us,” James said. “It’s not like it’s unheard of. We all know what it is. They don’t like us, so we don’t like them.” True, there’s plenty of dislike. Bulls center Joakim Noah’s “Hollywood as hell” description of the Heat, uttered more than two years ago after Miami ousted Chicago in the Eastern Conference finals, remains one good example. The physicality of last year’s East semifinal series between the clubs,

which Rose watched from the bench while sitting out the season, remains another. Now the Bulls get Rose back, 18 months after he tore up his left knee. Over the last five seasons, James has four MVP awards, Rose holding the other from that span. And with Rose back, the Bulls — and the East — figure to be tougher for Miami this season. “I’m looking forward to it, but I’m going to take it as any other game,” Rose said of his long-awaited official return, after getting through the preseason exhibition slate. “It’s the first game. It’s the next game. And we’re just trying to sharpen things up, play the same way but just get our chemistry a little bit better.” Rose was widely criticized for his decision to not come back last season, those cries ramping up only after word emerged that he was cleared for practice. If he could practice, many said, why couldn’t he play? James, who plans to offer Rose a welcome-back sentiment out of respect for his game on Tuesday, said he watched the saga that followed the Bulls around last season play out and felt a bit envious about it all. “They’re a rival, the Bulls, but

Derrick Rose and the Bulls believe they’re ready to challenge LeBron James and the Miami Heat for supremacy in the Eastern Conference.

the one thing I kind of envy in the whole Derrick Rose injury thing was when he came out and said he had to be selfish,” James said. “He had to protect himself. A lot of people killed him for not coming back. A lot of people said ‘He’s practicing, why can’t he play?’ He basically came out and said he was selfish. He had to do what’s best

for him. I kind of envy him.” Rose will likely not have any restrictions on his minutes. And though it is the first of 82 games in the regular season, Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau suggested Monday that the opener is not exactly just a measuring-stick game for Chicago against the two-time defending champions.

Bowyer has Richmond mess in rearview mirror CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Clint Bowyer fielded fan questions for nearly 30 minutes Monday at the NASCAR Hall of Fame, where the topics covered everything from his recent appearance on an episode of “Duck Dynasty” to his displeasure with people who text while driving. Not a single person asked him about Richmond. Finally, nearly two months after Bowyer spun late in the race that set the field for the Sprint Cup-deciding Chase, the scandal is finally fading into his rearview mirror. His actions in the Sept. 7 race triggered a massive chain reaction that knocked the wind out of NASCAR as it headed into its championship portion of the season. Michael Waltrip Racing was crippled with the loss of a longtime sponsor, and Martin Truex Jr. and 15 percent of the MWR workforce were given pink slips. Bowyer, one of the most popular drivers inside the garage, suddenly found he was considered Public Enemy

Sprint Cup Series driver Clint Bowyer (15) leads a pack of cars through the tri-oval during the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series auto race at the Talladega Superspeedway in Talladega, Ala., on Oct. 20.

No. 1 among a fan base that only in the last few years had begun to appreciate his talent and humor. “I was in middle of a storm, certain kind of storm. A four-lettered storm is what I’d call that,” Bowyer

said Monday. It took a toll on the freewheeling country boy from Kansas. He was second in the points heading into the Richmond race and thought he’d challenge for a championship this year.

Then came the fallout from Richmond, where NASCAR said MWR deliberately manipulated the finish of the race in an attempt to get Truex into the 12-driver Chase field. He said he quickly

figured out the final laps at Richmond had created a firestorm that wasn’t going away anytime soon. “I didn’t that night. But then (figured out) ‘this is not good,’ “Bowyer said. “I was immediately crushed because

of the sport and what I care and believe about this sport. It was tough.” The Chase was effectively over for Bowyer before it began. He opened with a ninth-place finish at Chicago, where points leader Matt Kenseth won, and was 17th the next week at New Hampshire, where Kenseth won again. Just like that, Bowyer was 10th in the standings and out of the title hunt. He acknowledged Monday the Richmond drama “definitely” contributed to the No. 15 team stumbling out of the gate. Bowyer wasn’t the same off the track, either. Dale Earnhardt Jr. noted last month that it had been difficult to watch Bowyer suffer through the backlash from fans. “Clint is a good guy and obviously was just following orders,” Earnhardt said. “He did some things that were out of character and regrettable, and he feels terrible to have any involvement in it. I know that for a fact.”

Pacers’ Granger out for three weeks

COLTS: Whalen promoted from practice squad to 53-man team

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Danny Granger tried to brush aside any new concerns about his injured left calf Monday. Pacers fans can only hope he’s right. Hours after the Pacers announced Granger would miss three weeks with a muscle strain, he walked out of practice with a smile and insisted this injury is nothing like the one that kept him out of action most of last season. “It’s not terrible,” he said. “I can run up and down the court but when I start jumping, it feels like a knot in my calf where I hurt it. They (the doctors) just said to sit out until I didn’t feel it.” Granger missed all but five games with a tendon injury in his left knee, and there were big questions about his health throughout the Pacers’ busy offseason. Indiana signed three free agents, hired two new assistant coaches, brought Larry Bird back to the front office and traded for Luis Scola. The Pacers are hoping the moves pay off after they pushed Miami to Game 7 in the Eastern Conference finals. Those within the organization have always believed the biggest addition would be the return of Granger.

FROM PAGE B1

Indiana Pacers forward Danny Granger (33) looks to pass as Chicago Bulls guard Mike Dunleavy (34) guards during the first half of an NBA preseason basketball game in Chicago on Oct. 18. Granger is out for three weeks with an injured calf.

If healthy, the 6-foot-9 former All-Star adds depth and scoring to an already dangerously strong roster. But Monday’s announcement, which came the day before Indiana’s season opener against Orlando, is only creating more concerns. Those outside the team’s inner circle see comparisons between this announcement and what happened last season when Granger was

told to rest his injured left knee. Granger didn’t play until February and returned to bench after only five games. In April, he finally opted for season-ending surgery. When training camp opened last month, Granger was cleared to work though he was given extra time to rest as he finished his rehabilitation from surgery. Now, he’s dealing with a strained muscle in his lower

left leg that forced him to miss the final week of the preseason and could push return back into mid to late November. Granger insists there’s nothing to worry about. “They’re holding me back because they want it to heal,” Granger said, referring to the doctors. “They said if I had not missed the whole year, they probably would have sat me down a week and a half.”

to pitch in by promoting Griff Whalen from the practice squad to the active roster. Whalen was an undrafted rookie who spent last season on injured reserve. He played in three games in September, caught two passes for 28 yards, then was cut and brought back to the practice squad Oct. 1. “Very excited for Griff,” Luck said. “It’s a good chance for him. He’s always been ready and ready to roll.” The Colts have to be ready to go, too. They have no scheduled breaks between now and the Dec. 29 regular-season finale against Jacksonville and are about to face one of this season’s most daunting stretches. After visiting Houston this weekend, for a third straight prime-time game, they return home to face struggling St. Louis on Nov. 10 followed by yet another night game Nov. 14 at Tennessee. Win all three and the Colts would extend their division lead, be 3-0 in division games — with all three wins on the road — and head into a well-deserved long weekend in control of the AFC South title chase.

The tough stretch starts Sunday against Houston, which has lost five straight and has gone from preseason Super Bowl contender to major disappointment in half a season. Linebacker Brian Cushing is out with a season-ending knee injury, Pro Bowl quarterback Matt Schaub is out with an ankle injury, backup quarterback T.J. Yates lost the replacement job to Case Keenum, running back Arian Foster and receiver Andre Johnson have played through injuries and opposing defenses have scored at least one touchdown in each of the past six weeks. Indy is under no illusions, though. “They are a dangerous team, point blank, period,” Colts linebacker Robert Mathis said. “Their scheme, the things they do, they do well. Make no mistake about it, we’re not looking at their record because they are the two-time AFC South champions and we respect them as such.” And after taking a weeklong break, the Colts are ready to go. “They were sharp as a tack,” Pagano said. “Moved around, fresh legs, that whole thing. They were excellent.”

Meriweather, Marshall continue spat Rookie Megna lifts ASHBURN, Va. (AP) — After saying he’s going to “take peoples’ knees out” to avoid another suspension for hits to the head, Washington Redskins safety Brandon Meriweather struck another blow — declaring that “people who beat their girlfriends should be kicked out of the league.” Meriweather’s comments were a retort referencing the checkered domestic violence past of Chicago Bears receiver Brandon Marshall, who last week

suggested that players such as Meriweather should perhaps be “taken out of the game completely” to make the game safer. “Everybody got their opinion,” Meriweather said Monday. “If he feel like, you know, I need to be kicked out of the league, I feel like people who beat their girlfriends should be kicked out of the league, too. You tell me who you’d rather have — somebody who plays aggressive on the field, or somebody who beat

up their girlfriend?” Marshall’s career has occasionally been overshadowed by off-the-field troubles, including multiple arrests following confrontations with a girlfriend when he was playing for the Denver Broncos. None of the arrests led to a conviction. Marshall declined comment when approached by reporters in the Bears’ locker room on Monday. Shortly after Meriweather’s comments, he tweeted: “There is only one way to avoid criticism: do nothing, say nothing, and be nothing.” Marshall addressed the matter briefly later in an appearance on ESPN 1000. “He actually reached out to me last week, and I told him that I was more concerned about him and his health,” Marshall said, “because I think a few weeks before our game I saw him lying on the field

just out cold. It was a scary situation. I never want to see him or any player laid out like that. “As far as what he said today, you can only pray for someone with those feelings. So that’s all I have to say about that.” Monday was Meriweather’s first day back with the Redskins following a one-game suspension for multiple helmet-first hits against defenseless receivers, including two in the Redskins’ win over the Bears last week. One of the hits was against Marshall in the end zone on an incomplete pass in the fourth quarter. Meriweather, who was fined for a helmetfirst hit against the Green Bay Packers earlier in this season, was initially suspended for two games by the NFL. He had the sanction cut in half after an appeal.

Penguins past Canes RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — Rookie Jayson Megna had his first career goal and assist, and the Pittsburgh Penguins snapped a three-game losing streak by beating the Carolina Hurricanes 3-1 on Monday night. Chris Kunitz and Tanner Glass also scored for the Metropolitan Divisionleading Penguins. Brooks Orpik had three assists, Sidney Crosby added two and Marc-Andre Fleury stopped 20 shots. Pittsburgh ended its longest losing streak since 2011-12 by defeating the Hurricanes for the fourth straight time. Nathan Gerbe scored a power-play goal for Carolina, which lost its third straight but remained tied with the New York Islanders for second in the division — five points behind the Penguins. Justin Peters made 26 saves in his second straight start in place of the injured Cam Ward. Ward is expected to miss at least two more weeks after sustaining an unspecified lower-body injury during a loss at Minnesota last week, and including that game, the Hurricanes have lost all three games since he was hurt. Carolina has allowed at least three goals in four straight.

Offense had become a bit tougher to find for the Penguins, which scored 13 goals in its previous two victories over the Hurricanes — including a 5-2 win earlier this month in Pittsburgh keyed by a hat trick from former Hurricane Jussi Jokinen. During the losing streak, the Penguins averaged 38 shots but managed four total goals. Kunitz scored the go-ahead goal with 3:36 left in the second, cashing in on some nifty cross-ice passing, taking a feed from Crosby and beating Peters high to make it 2-1. Megna — a 23-year-old undrafted center playing in his second career NHL game — then made it a two-goal game with 12:49 left. A Crosby shot clicked first off a Carolina defender, then off Megna’s right knee and into the net — and the occasion was marked by the inadvertent sounding of the PNC Arena goal horn. Megna’s first career point came on the Penguins’ first goal. Glass put them up 1-0 at 8:25 of the first off a neutral-zone draw, whipping the rebound of Megna’s shot past Peters. Both of Glass’ goals this season have come against the Hurricanes.

SPORTS BRIEFS • Hammons suspended 3 games WEST LAFAYETTE (AP) — Purdue coach Matt Painter suspended starting center A.J. Hammons for three games Monday for violating team rules. Painter did not elaborate on what rules were violated. Hammons will sit out exhibition games Oct. 30 against Indianapolis and Nov. 4 against Wayne State (Neb.) as well as the season-opener Nov. 8 against Northern Kentucky. A year ago, Hammons was one of the Big Ten’s top freshmen. The 7-foot, 251-pound center averaged 10.6 points and 6.0 rebounds, and Painter had said he expected bigger things from Hammons this season after he reported in better shape. In a statement issued by the athletic department, Painter said he expects players to meet certain standards and that those who do not must be held accountable.

NY letter: MLB seeks dismissal of A-Rod’s lawsuit NEW YORK (AP) — A letter to a New York judge says Major League Baseball wants an early dismissal of a lawsuit Alex Rodriguez filed against the league and Commissioner Bud Selig. Judge Lorna Schofield in Manhattan agreed Monday that both sides could file their motions by Nov. 8 in federal court. A lawyer for Rodriguez said he wrote the letter jointly with MLB lawyers to schedule how the case will proceed. The lawyer — Jordan Siev — said attorneys for the Yankees third baseman will ask the judge to return the case to state court, where Rodriguez originally filed it. He said MLB lawyers who moved the case to federal court will ask that the lawsuit be dismissed. The lawsuit claims MLB went on a “witch hunt” to remove Rodriguez from baseball.

Wolverines without tight end Williams against MSU Saturday ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) — No. 23 Michigan will be without tight end A.J. Williams against No. 24 Michigan State. Wolverines coach Brady Hoke announced Monday the sophomore has been suspended for one game for an unspecified violation of team rules. Hoke says it’s disappointing when a player makes a poor decision and the Wolverines will help Williams as he learns a valuable lesson. Williams is from Cincinnati and started the last four games. The 6-foot-6, 265-pound Williams hasn’t caught a pass in his two-year career, but is used as a blocking tight end.

Man pleads not guilty in Peterson’s son’s death SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) — A 27-year-old Sioux Falls man has pleaded not guilty to charges accusing him of killing the 2-year-old son of Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson. KELO television reports that Joseph Robert Patterson is being held on reduced bond of $750,000. He’s charged with second-degree murder, manslaughter, aggravated assault and aggravated battery in the death of Tyrese Robert Ruffin. Patterson is the boyfriend of Tyrese’s mother. Patterson’s attorney, Tim Rensch, argued for the lower bond, saying evidence against his client is circumstantial. A pre-trial hearing is scheduled for January. Peterson had just recently found out that Tyrese was his son. The NFL star had been planning to meet the boy and rushed to Sioux Falls when he heard Tyrese was hospitalized. A pre-trial hearing is scheduled for January.

Vikings will decide between Freeman, Ponder later EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. (AP) — Minnesota Vikings coach Leslie Frazier says he will decide later this week whether Josh Freeman or Christian Ponder will start at quarterback against Dallas on Sunday. The Vikings have changed quarterbacks for four consecutive games while looking for some consistency and playmaking at the position. The only one to win a game this season for them is veteran Matt Cassel, who beat Pittsburgh in London three games ago. Frazier says he believes Freeman or Ponder give the Vikings the best chance to win. Freeman was signed earlier this month and started against the New York Giants two weeks ago. But he suffered a concussion and forced Ponder back into the game against Green Bay on Sunday night.

Vanek traded to Islanders NEW YORK (AP) — Thomas Vanek knew a trade from the Buffalo Sabres was likely. He just didn’t expect to be shipped off to the New York Islanders this early in the season. From one rebuild to another for the prolific goal scorer. Vanek joined the Islanders on Monday morning just hours after the deal that sent him to Long Island for forward Matt Moulson and a pair of draft picks.

It’s time to cool down in Ritz-GOP feud If you’ve been missing the budget squabbling in Washington since it calmed down last week, you could look to Indianapolis for your daily fix of dysfunction. By involving a lawsuit between dueling political parties, the bickering in Indiana government has gone one step beyond the federal feud. State Superintendent of Public Instruction Glenda Ritz sued the 10-member state board of education a week ago, contending it broke Indiana’s open meeting law by huddling without telling her — or anyone else. We’ve been building up to this since Ritz won an upset election last fall over her predecessor, Tony Bennett. The win made her the lone Democrat in the state power structure, and Republican leaders have gone out of their way to shut her out of decisions. In doing so, Republicans risk ignoring a clear message that Hoosier voters were trying to send last November. Voters took the trouble of crossing party lines to elect Ritz — a relative unknown — because they were upset by the rapid changes Bennett was bringing to Indiana schools. We suspect voters especially disliked the way Bennett was handling a new system of A through F grades for Indiana schools. Now, the grading system has become the focus of the quarrel between Ritz and Republicans. Ritz sued after the state school board — bypassing her entirely — called for the Legislative Service Agency to help calculate this year’s school grades. The board and the governor say Ritz’s Department of Education is taking too long with the process. Ritz’s excuse sounds reasonable. The grades are running only slightly behind Bennett’s pace last year, and she’s battling extraordinary circumstances. This year, Ritz is dealing with computer foulups that plagued ISTEP testing. As a related hindrance, the number of parents appealing their children’s ISTEP scores grew by 20 percent. What does not seem reasonable is Ritz making things worse by tossing the controversy into the courts. All 10 state board of education members have been appointed by Republican governors. But at least four of them describe themselves as bipartisan in a letter they sent to Ritz, calling for a truce. The four members say they have complaints, too, contending that Ritz ignores messages from them. “However, in the interests of our students — the future of our state — we are ready to set that aside and start over” in working with Ritz, their letter says. We’re pleased to see that one of the board members exhibiting good sense is Troy Albert, principal of tornado-stricken Henryville High School, who previously served as principal at Westview High School and assistant principal at Fremont. We also took encouragement last winter from the attitude of northeast Indiana’s state Sen. Dennis Kruse, R-Auburn. Kruse chairs the Senate committee on education. Shortly after Ritz took office, Kruse said he respects her and considers her a friend. He seemed willing to ignore their partisan differences for the good of Indiana students. “I look forward to working with her, and I think we will have a lot of things in common that we would like to change,” Kruse said. Let’s start by changing the atmosphere in Indianapolis. We hope Ritz will accept the invitation from the four state board of education members to drop her lawsuit and give peace a chance.

Letters to The Editor • Cosmetic contact lenses are a bad idea To the editor: Halloween is a great time for scarecrows, candy corn and caramel apples … but not a good time to enhance your seasonal costume with cosmetic contact lenses. In fact, cosmetic contact lenses are a bad idea ANY time of year! Each year at this time we treat patients for an increased number of serious corneal inflammations and infections caused by contact lenses created solely to provide a costume appearance. These serious corneal issues can unfortunately occur with other contact lenses as well. Understanding the relatively straight forward anatomy and physiology of the human cornea will help you to understand the safe wear of contact lenses. The human cornea consists of five layers of tissue that are crystal clear in their healthy stage, thus allowing good vision. This corneal tissue is unique to other tissues in the human; it has no blood vessels within it supplying it with oxygen. The cornea gets its oxygen directly from air and to a lesser degree from the blood vessels lining the eye lids when the lids are closed. This dependence on an oxygen supply from

air is what creates issues, many very serious, with contact lens wear. A contact lens is a prescription drug under the control of the FDA. It is critical that contact lenses be properly fit and that the lenses themselves are made of a material that allows adequate supply of oxygen to go through it to supply the cornea, referred to as gas permeability. Contact lenses that are made strictly for cosmetic purposes are minimally gas permeable if at all. When placing that lens on the eye, the cornea becomes hypoxic (no oxygen). This hypoxia leads to corneal inflammation and secondary infection, which will lead to a corneal ulcer if not treated. The lens itself is not the only factor in safe and healthy wearing of contact lenses. The person wearing the lenses (I am a contact lens wearer myself) has several steps that they should take to minimize the risks: 1. Contact lenses that are thrown away daily (“daily disposable”) are without argument the safest most risk-free lenses available. Corneal complications are rarely seen with the proper wear of daily disposable lenses. The older the lens and the dirtier the lens … the higher the risk! 2. Do not sleep in your lenses (even napping is a risk). Wearing lenses around

Online Poll • Our new online poll at kpcnews.com asks: What do you think of Halloween? Possible responses range from too pagan to too commercial to wonderful for kids. Our previous poll at kpcnews.com asked: What will be the long-term result of the current government shutdown? This is how people viewed the ultimate result of the government shutdown: Changes to Obamacare — 4 percent Damage the reputation of the U.S. — 20 percent Republican Party will divide into two parties — 2.4 percent Weaker tea party — 7.2 percent Stronger tea party — 8.8 percent Financial harm to nation as a whole — 30.4 percent Increased focus on our nation’s debt problem — 13.6 percent Stronger Democratic party — 13.8 percent Online polls are not scientific but they provide an interesting snapshot of public opinion.

the clock with the eyelids closed starves the cornea of oxygen. If one insists on wearing lenses around the clock (“continuous wear”) and is informed of the high risk, contact lenses designed and approved for continuous wear should be fit. 3. Dispose of your contact lenses EXACTLY as prescribed. Lens disposal time frames range from one day to four weeks. The lenses are specifically designed for this time frame and wearing beyond that time frame affects the lens permeability (oxygen flow) and creates great risk for problems. 4. Do NOT over-wear. Always try to remove your lenses two hours before bedtime. This two hour “window” allows a full supply of oxygen to reach the cornea before closing the lids for sleep. At Halloween a little make-believe horror can be entertaining, but not the horror of a permanent loss of vision from a corneal ulcer caused by a cosmetic contact lens or by poor contact lens protocol. Contact lenses can create a wonderful freedom from glasses. When wearing the properly fit contact lens and following the rules, risks are minimal! Dr. Craig M. Lichlyter Drs. Roush and Will, optometrists Kendallville

What Others Say The ‘fix’ won’t last for long An agreement was finally reached to put a stop — temporarily, at least — to the dysfunction gripping our nation’s capital. Yet all that really changes is the urgency of the problem. There are certainly no heroes in this latest development, which re-opens the federal government after a 16-day partial shutdown and raises the debt limit for a few more months. No, there is nothing to celebrate. The destructive brinkmanship we’ve come to expect from this Congress, primarily driven by the most conservative members of the U.S. House of Representatives with a couple of noisy allies in the Senate, has become part and parcel of the way public business gets done — or not done — in this day and age of American politics. It should be noted that the crusade launched by tea party-supported members of Congress accomplished nothing for their cause. Ultimately, more moderate voices prevailed, but not before the partial government shutdown and the U.S. Treasury reached the brink of a frightening default. Despite a reprieve from the current crisis, let’s not fool ourselves in thinking that an actual resolution was reached. It was not. The country will potentially be put through the same madness again in early 2014. The American system of government relies on checks and balances, so a certain amount of partisan political warfare is to be expected. That’s not a bad thing. The problem arises when a radical minority becomes so hell-bent on inflicting its will that everyone else is deprived of stable governance. The American system works best when the country is governed from the middle, not from the extremes. Because of the stark ideological divisions that have produced the current dysfunction, it’s clear that only time — and a new election cycle — can temper the political climate. A year from now, voters will have another chance to assess their options. For the sake of saner government, we hope they choose wisely. Tribune-Star

Appoint school chief after Glenda Ritz’s time over A news analysis by the Statehouse File’s Lesley Weidenbener published Sunday in the Courier & Press raised again the question of whether Indiana should make its superintendent of public instruction an appointed instead of an elected position. The post has long been elective and largely peaceful, up to now. That was, until Democrat Glenda Ritz was elected superintendent last year, unseating Republican Tony Bennett, a proponent of education reform. The superintendent serves as chairperson of the state board of education, but not much else. As it has evolved this year, Republicans have maintained control of education policy in the state, even though the superintendent is a Democrat. As it is, with the governor a Republican, it makes good sense that the superintendent be appointed by the governor, so they can work in concert on state education policy. However, Republicans have not, throughout all those years they controlled the governor’s post and the school superintendent, shown any interest is making the school superintendent an appointed office. Only this year, with a Democrat holding the office and challenging Republican policy, has anyone shown interest making it an elected office. This newspaper campaigned for years to see the office made appointive, but to no avail. Too bad for the GOP. Now that a Democrat has been elected to the office, it would hardly be fair now to make it elective. Our advice: wait until Ritz serves a full term, maybe even two terms, and make it appointive then. Indeed, Indiana does not need an elected school superintendent, only to run the risk again of having a governor from one party and a school chief of another party, with school policy muddled in the middle.

Retailers share advice on unruly children DEAR ABBY: I managed a retail store for 10 years, and I can relate to the shop owner who signed herself “Had It With Overindulged Kids” (June 28). She could turn things around by creating a designated play area and market to the children by taking any opened items and placing them there for a children’s testing ground. I had a “play table” with toys to keep them busy while their moms shopped. I put a gated area around it and a dads’ bench in front of it so they could watch the children. They are your customers. So cater to them and be thankful the parents shop in your store. Learn the children’s names and suggest new age-appropriate products. If you don’t have the time, hire someone who loves children and has the patience to play with them

parents. Out of desperation, I took a job there and vowed to find a way to make the parents rein in their youngsters. One: I posted a sign that read, “IF YOU BREAK IT, YOU BOUGHT IT.” If they refused, I didn’t push the issue, but I did gesture upward. They would always look up, and when they did, I’d thank them for smiling at our cameras. Two: Any child found unaccompanied would be escorted to our customer service area and the parents paged repeatedly until they showed up. Since I instituted these policies, the condition of the store has improved, the morale of the employees has improved, sales have risen, and old customers who left due to the old circumstances are returning. — SURVIVOR OF RETAIL HELL

‘Almost anxiety’ treated with diet, sleep positive, enjoyable experiences all around you. If so, there are ways to help you. There’s a newly emerging term for this gray zone that falls between “normal” anxiety and a full-blown anxiety disorder. It’s called “almost anxiety.” ASK In their DOCTOR K. illuminating new book, “Almost Dr. Anthony Anxious,” my Harvard Komaroff Medical School colleague Dr. Luana Marques with Eric Metcalf explore the idea of almost anxiety and introduce a set of skills you can use to keep it at bay.

•

As discussed in “Almost Anxious,” the first needs that usually go unanswered when people are stressed are the things that actually keep anxiety at bay. These include proper nutrition, sleep and exercise. You may see how these things could be good for your health in general, yet doubt that they could affect anxiety. You shouldn’t doubt it: They can help. Let’s start with nutrition. People who are a little anxious tend to reach for unhealthy “comfort” food. Or they completely avoid food, skipping meals or even fasting. The healthier road — and one that will also help tame your anxiety — is to eat wholesome foods on a regular schedule. How does nutrition help fight “almost anxiety”? It may be as simple as this: An unhealthy diet contributes to feeling unwell — and then worrying that you may have a serious

DEAR DOCTOR K: I’ve always worried a lot. I saw a psychologist, but she said I didn’t have anxiety disorder, so she couldn’t help. I can’t believe there’s nothing to do. Can you help? DEAR READER: I don’t agree with your doctor. I’ve talked before in this space about how doctors typically define diseases by how they appear in their most extreme form. I call it the “tip of the iceberg” phenomenon. Doctors have certain criteria for what constitutes an anxiety disorder. I assume your doctor has checked those criteria and decided that you don’t have enough of them to “qualify” for the diagnosis. You may not have an anxiety disorder, but it sounds as though the nagging, worrisome thoughts in your mind may be distracting you from the

disease, such as an undiagnosed cancer. Next on the list is sleep. Being sleep-deprived can significantly raise your anxiety level. But there’s good scientific evidence that good sleep can help control anxiety. If you have trouble falling or staying asleep, try the following: • Use your bed for sleep and sex only. • Get out of bed if you can’t fall asleep after 20 minutes. • Go to bed and wake up at the same time every day. • Don’t nap during the day. • Don’t drink alcohol close to bedtime. • Finally, get regular exercise.

Ellis Island reopens after Sandy Penn State paying nearly $60 million to abuse victims

NEW YORK (AP) — The island that ushered millions of immigrants into the United States and became a monument to its mosaic of ancestries reopened to visitors Monday for the first time since Superstorm Sandy, adding a chapter to the narrative of hard-won recovery on the eve of the storm’s anniversary. The Ellis Island Immigration Museum hasn’t fully recovered from the floods that filled its basement; many of its more than 1 million photographs and other artifacts are still in storage, and officials haven’t yet repaired computers the public can use to research forebears. But visitors were able to return to much of the graceful main building, including some exhibits, and to absorb the island’s singular views of the nearby Statue of Liberty and lower Manhattan. “Awe” was Cathy Scheer’s reaction as she stepped off the first visitor ferry Monday morning. The Riverside, Calif., resident and a colleague at a school bus driver-training company had arrived a day early for a business trip in hopes of seeing the statue and Ellis Island. Some of Scheer’s German and Scottish forebears immigrated via Ellis Island, so she was excited at “the chance to walk in my ancestors’ shoes,” she said. Sandy’s surge swamped Ellis Island, the entry point for about 12 million newcomers from 1892 to

1954 and a public historic site since 1976. David Luchsinger, the National Park Service superintendent for the island and the Statue of Liberty, arrived the day after Sandy to find doors and windows blown out, pilings strewn on the grounds and the basement full of water, which destroyed the electric, heating, air conditioning and phone systems. Liberty Island was also inundated during Sandy and reopened on July 4, only to close again for a time during the recent partial federal government shutdown. The floodwaters didn’t

He hopes to start returning the items to their galleries within about a month and to have the public family-research computers running again by the end of November. “Yes, we are shy a little bit on exhibits and artifacts, but we’re not shy on character, at all,” he said while standing before a glass-enclosed array of steamer trunks and suitcases in the former baggage room where immigrants left belongings.

touch the Ellis Island exhibits, which are on the first and higher floors, but they were later moved to storage because they could have deteriorated without climate control. Rebuilding and storm proofing the electrical and other networks without marring the 1900, Beaux-Artsstyle building was a challenge to plan and is still a $21 million, 18-month work in progress. Heat is currently running through the building’s original radiators, instead of the modern climate-control system. Officials are still working on regulating the

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — Penn State said Monday it is paying $59.7 million to 26 young men over claims of child sexual abuse at the hands of former assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky, a man once revered as a university icon who is now serving what is effectively a life prison sentence. Nearly two years after the retired coach was first charged with child molestation, the school said 23 deals were fully signed and three were agreements in principle. It did not disclose the names of the recipients. The school faces six other claims, and the university says it believes some of those do not have merit while others may produce settlements. University president Rodney Erickson issued a statement calling the announcement a step forward for victims and the school. “We cannot undo what has been done, but we can and must do everything possible to learn from this and ensure it never happens again at Penn State,” said Erickson, who announced the day Sandusky was convicted in June 2012 that Penn State was determined to compensate his victims. The settlements have been unfolding since

mid-August, when attorneys for the accusers began to disclose them. Penn State has not been confirming them, waiting instead to announce deals at once. Harrisburg lawyer Ben Andreozzi, who helped negotiate several of the settlements, said his clients were satisfied. “They felt that the university treated them fairly with the economic and noneconomic terms of the settlement,” said Andreozzi, who also represents some others who have come forward recently. Those new claims have not been presented to the university, he said. One client represented by St. Paul, Minn., attorney Jeff Anderson signed off on an agreement in the past week and the other is basically done, he said. Anderson counts his two clients as among the three that have been classified as agreements in principle, which Penn State said means final documentation is expected to be completed in the next few weeks. Anderson said his clients were focused on Penn State’s changes to prevent future abuse. “I have to applaud them, because they said ‘not until we’re satisfied that no one else will get hurt,’” Anderson said.
