Schools consider calendar change DeKalb Central invites reactions WATERLOO — The DeKalb Central school district is exploring calendar options and seeking community input.

The district has formed a calendar committee with an aim to be student-focused, said Superintendent Sherry Grate. Its goal is to examine the district’s current

calendar and explore opportunities to improve learning or the educational environment, Grate added. “The calendar committee has examined the pros and cons of the district’s traditional calendar and has reached out to districts that have transitioned to a balanced

calendar to learn from their experiences,� a new release said.

In the release, Grate said in a balanced calendar, students are engaged in learning for approximately nine-week periods of time, then have two-week breaks in fall, winter and spring. Summer break begins at the beginning of June.

Grate said the feedback from districts that have moved to a balanced calendar has been very

positive. Districts are reporting a decrease in summer loss of learning; an increase in opportunities during the breaks for enrichment, dual credit, credit recovery, and intervention support; the ability to address larger facility, maintenance, and technology projects throughout the year; and an increase in overall morale.

Garrett spellers head for finals

BY SUE CARPENTER scarpenter@kpcmedia.com

GARRETT — Garrett High School’s spell team has been putting in extra practice time the past few weeks.

Saturday, the school will compete in the state finals at Purdue University’s main campus in West Lafayette for the fourth year in a row.

Garrett reached the finals by scoring 53 out of a possible 90 points in a qualifying contest at Hamilton High School on Oct. 14. Garrett’s score ranked fourth among all Indiana schools in enrollment Class 3. The state’s top eight teams advanced to Saturday’s finals.

Preparing for Saturday, Garrett

team members compiled lists of thousands of words that might be tricky — hyphenated words, homophones, words that are capitalized, and some words with foreign origins such as vichyssoise, Khrushchev and bouillabaisse.

First-year coach Mark Claxton and Jonelle Furnish mentor Garrett’s 20-member team.

At each competition, 10 students spell nine words each.

Claxton said choosing the 10 students to compete Saturday will be based on performances at past meets, attendance at practices and experience. All 20 students will travel to West Lafayette. “We’re lucky we have a lot of kids� to choose from, he said.

twitter.com/kpcnews

The order in which they spell is also considered. If a competitor is a bit nervous, that speller usually is put in the front of the line, while another might like being in the anchor position. “There’s no real method,�

Claxton said.

The team members all are dedicated — but many are very busy with other activities such as jobs, chores, band, choir and sports obligations, as well, he added.

The students have their collective eye on the top three places at state, but just qualifying for state is a great accomplishment, Claxton said. “We want to stay with SEE SPELLERS, PAGE A8

The administrative changes are good for just one year, though senior administration officials said they could be extended if problems with the law persist. Obama announced the changes at the White House. “This fix won’t solve every problem for every person, but it’s going to help a lot of people,� the president said.

But it was unclear if state officials, who would have to implement the changes, would go along. Insurers also had concerns.

The National Association of Insurance Commissioners said the president’s proposal could undermine the new health insurance markets his law seeks to create.

Sydney Hefty, 10, leads a news conference Wednesday to reveal plans for a book drive for young children.

AUBURN — The youngest members the United Way Campaign Chair family wanted to find a way to make a difference in the community.

Many of the United Way campaign presentations and events their parents, David and Stacy Hefty, are involved in happen while their children are in school, or even sleeping.

At a news conference Wednesday, Sydney Hefty, 10, and her younger brothers, Matthias, 8, Isaiah, 6, and and Isaac, 3, shared that they have been hard at work making posters for a book drive to benefit families in DeKalb County with children from birth to age 3.

The children chose to name their program the Live United Through Reading Book Drive.

Sydney Hefty shared her own love for books and that her

favorite time to read is at bedtime and her favorite book is “The Mysterious Benedict Society� by Trenton Lee. Her brothers shared that they like tractor books — the ones with green tractors.

Their parents shared with them the importance of helping others.

The Hefty family loves to read, so the book drive was a natural choice. “We want all children to have books of their own,� Stacy Hefty said. “There are few things better that letting a child curl up in your lap to look at pictures, hear your voice and learn to think of books as a favorite toy.�

New and gently used board and picture books will be distributed to area agencies to give to families with children from birth to 3 years old. These agencies and organizaSEE BOOK DRIVE, PAGE A8

Police Blotter • Officers arrest four AUBURN — Local police officers arrested four people Tuesday night and Wednesday, according to DeKalb County Jail records.

Kristin Sisco-Fisher, 22, of the 200 block of East Houston Street, Garrett, was arrested Tuesday at 8:27 p.m. by the Auburn Police Department on charges of possession of paraphernalia and possession of marijuana, hash oil, hashish, salvia or a synthetic drug, both Class A misdemeanors.

Matthew Coyer, 40, of the 1000 block of Farwood Avenue, Fort Wayne, was arrested Wednesday at 10:02 a.m. by the DeKalb County Sheriff’s Department for alleged contempt of civil court involving child support.

David Johnson, 50, of Uniondale was arrested Wednesday at 12:54 p.m. by the DeKalb County Sheriff’s Department for alleged contempt of civil court involving child support.

Ryan Pruitt, 30, of the 2300 block of C.R. 35, Waterloo, was arrested Tuesday at 10:30 p.m. by the DeKalb County Sheriff’s Department on a warrant charging him with impersonation of a police officer, a Class D felony.

According to a police affidavit of probable cause for Pruitt’s arrest, a woman contacted police after a man, later identified as Pruitt, came to her house and said he was a police officer looking for someone.

The woman asked for police identification, and Pruitt responded that he did not have it with him, the affidavit said.

The woman thought Pruitt might be a police officer because of the type of vehicle he was driving and because his haircut was similar to that of many police officers, the affidavit said. When police questioned Pruitt, he allegedly confessed, telling police he was attempting to locate someone but did not know the person’s exact address.

Foundation gives to police training site

BY AARON ORGAN aorgan@kpcmedia.com

AUBURN — The Metal Technologies Foundation has committed $75,000 toward a new training facility for the Auburn Police Department, the city’s Board of Public Works and Safety learned Thursday morning.

The foundation pledged $25,000 over three years toward the project, Police Chief Martin McCoy told the board.

The commitment pushes the department’s fundraising total to $190,000 and considerably closer

to the $300,000 goal to replace a dilapidated training building at the department’s range with a new structure three times the present size.

A larger training room would allow police to hold large classes, with room for defensivetactic training as well as honing marksmanship skills, the department has said.

Departments that routinely use the city’s facility south of Auburn Drive include the DeKalb, Noble and Steuben county sheriffs’ departments and the Waterloo,

Ashley, Kendallville, Rome City and Wolcottville police departments. The Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms also shoots in Auburn.

Also Thursday morning, the board also accepted a $5,316 grant from Drug Free DeKalb County for the police department, and it granted permission for McCoy to apply for a $41,290 grant from the Indiana Criminal Justice Institute to fund the IMAGE Drug Task Force program.

The board also:

• approved an increase to the AT&T lease for space on the Duesenberg Drive water tower by $150 to allow the company to add a piece of equipment. The lease rate grows to $1,396 per month.

• granted a request from the city’s street department to solicit bids for gasoline and diesel fuel.

• denied a sewer fee abatement request from an apartment building at 1000 Ontario Lane, saying the board does not have discretion under a current ordinance to grant such requests on commercial accounts.

Regional Roundup • Man charged in stabbing death ELKHART — Elkhart County prosecutors charged a man with murder Wednesday in the stabbing death of a 17-year-old girl, according to news reports.

The South Bend Tribune reports Michael Shoun, 26, is facing one count of murder in the slaying of Tiana Alter. Alter was found dead Nov. 2 in a bedroom at a Granger home.

Police arrested Shoun at the scene on an unrelated traffic charge, but later asked prosecutors to charge him with murder.

DeKalb Health completes healthy babies initiative

BY OCTAVIA LEHMAN olehman@kpcmedia.com

AUBURN — In the past year, DeKalb Health has been working with the March of Dimes to give babies a healthier start to life.

DeKalb Health has sought to reduce the number of elective induction and cesarean deliveries before 39 completed weeks of pregnancy.

DeKalb Health’s Family BirthPlace joined with the March of Dimes’ 39 Week Quality Initiative in 2012 with the goal of eliminating elective deliveries prior to 39 weeks of gestation.

DeKalb Health reported that it successfully met its goal by maintaining a 0 percent elective-birth rate since Jan. 1, 2013.

“Reducing unnecessary early deliveries means that more babies stayed in the womb longer, which is so important to their growth and development,” said Britte Nihart, director of the Family BirthPlace.

March of Dimes, a nonprofit organization for pregnancy and baby health, partnered with the hospital.

DeKalb Health was one of four Indiana hospitals selected for the study.

The organization is working with more than 100 hospitals across the nation to reduce the number of premature births and children born before 39 weeks without a medical reason.

The March of Dimes released a toolkit called “Elimination of Non-medically Indicated (elective) Deliveries Before 39 Weeks,” which the hospital used as a guideline.

Nihart said that pregnancies often are induced before the 39 week mark because of discomfort, convenience and the feeling that it is safe.

“The perception is that it is OK,” Nihart said.

Before DeKalb Health implemented recommendations by the March of Dimes, the hospital had

a 5.4 percent elective induction rate, relatively low compared to the state average of 37 percent, Nihart said.

Minjoo Morlan, director of program services at the March of Dimes, said DeKalb Health was chosen for the study because despite the low rate, “there is always room for improvement.”

“We want to show that 0 percent is achievable,” Morlan said. “Every week is very critical for brain development.”

Nihart said DeKalb Health will continue using the same process it did during the 39 Week Quality Initiative. Patients scheduled for induction of labor must meet certain requirements.

“If they don’t have a good medical reason, it goes to our director,” Nihart said.

“We have doctors and midwives who try to do the best practice,” Nihart said.

“It’s the matter of making it the norm.”

Firemen carry the body of a Typhoon Haiyan victim to a mass grave in Tacloban city, in central Philippines, on Thursday. Typhoon Haiyan, one of the most powerful storms on record, hit the country’s eastern

Mass burial held in city hit by typhoon TACLOBAN, Philippines (AP) — The air was thick with the stench of decay as sweating workers lowered the plastic coffins one by one into a grave the size of an Olympic swimming pool.

Scores of unidentified bodies were interred together Thursday in a hillside cemetery without any ritual — the first mass burial in this city shattered by last week’s Typhoon Haiyan.

Six days after the disaster, some progress was being made in providing food, water and medical aid to the

half-million people displaced in the Philippines. Massive bottlenecks blocking the distribution of international assistance have begun to clear.

Soldiers on trucks gave out rice and water, and chainsaw-wielding teams cut debris from blocked roads to clear the way for relief trucks in Tacloban, the capital of the hardest-hit Leyte province.

Thousands of people continued to swarm Tacloban’s damaged airport, desperate to leave or to get

Toronto mayor says he’s getting professional help TORONTO (AP) — Toronto Mayor Rob Ford announced Thursday he’s getting help from health care professionals but again refused to step aside over his drug use and drinking. He also threatened to take legal actions against former staffers who spoke to police about his behavior and denied making sexual advances toward a female staffer.

Ford, who has been under pressure to resign since admitting last week to smoking crack, used a typical mix of contriteness and angry defiance during several public appearances Thursday.

At a City Council session, outraged councilors turned their backs on the mayor each time he spoke and again called on him to step aside.

Ford said at a news conference that he didn’t want to comment on the particulars of the health care support he’s receiving and asked for privacy for his family.

With his wife at his side, Ford also apologized for using coarse language to deny allegations that he once told a female staffer he wanted to have oral sex with her.

Ford said he was pushed “over the line” by newly released court

documents that included allegations against him involving cocaine, escorts and prostitution. He called the allegations “100 per cent lies.”

He said his integrity as a father and husband had been attacked, prompting him to “see red.”

“I acted on complete impulse in my remarks,” Ford said.

Hours earlier, Ford had drawn gasps from shocked reporters with his choice of words as he addressed the allegations about the oral sex remarks.

“I’ve never said that in my life to her, I would never do that,” Ford said on live television.

The father of two school-age children said is “happily married” and used crude language to say he gets enough satisfaction at home.

Ford also said he would take legal action against his former chief of staff, Mark Towhey and two other aides over their interviews with police that were detailed in court documents released Wednesday. Ford did not specify what the aides might have said that was untrue. He also said he would take action against a waiter who said he believed Ford and a woman were snorting cocaine in a private room at a

restaurant.

“I have to take legal action against the waiter who said I was doing lines,” he said. “Outright lies, that is not true.”

The court documents are part of a drug case against Ford’s friend and occasional driver. Police interviews with Ford’s ex-staffers revealed their concerns about his drug use and drunk driving, with one staffer alleging he saw Ford “impaired, driving very fast,” and frightening a female staffer who was in the car with him.

In another incident, Ford was described by a former staff member as being “very inebriated, verbally abusive and inappropriate with” a female staff member on St. Patrick’s Day. Another former staffer reported seeing the mayor drunk in his office about 15 to 20 times in the year he worked for him.

Ford acknowledged to reporters that he might have consumed alcohol while driving in the past. But he immediately went on the defense.

“I’m not perfect. Maybe you are but I’m not, OK?” he told journalists. “I know none of you guys have ever had a drink and got behind the wheel.”

treatment at a makeshift medical center.

“We know the gravity of our countrymen’s suffering, and we know that, now more than ever, all of us are called on to do whatever we can to help alleviate our countrymen’s suffering,” President Benigno S. Aquino III said in a statement.

Authorities say 2,357 people have been confirmed dead, a figure that is expected to rise, perhaps significantly, when information is collected from other areas of the disaster zone.

With sweat rolling down their faces, John Cajipe, 31, and three teenage boys who work at the Tacloban cemetery placed the first body in the grave’s right-hand corner.

The second body followed two minutes later, carefully placed alongside the first. And so on, until scores of coffins filled the 6-foot (2-meter) deep grave. A ritual to sprinkle holy water on the site is expected to be held Friday, one week after the typhoon struck.

Spotlight on the Deep Web Last month, U.S. authorities arrested Ross William Ulbricht and charged him with running an online marketplace for a cornucopia of illegal goods and deals. That online bazaar was called The Silk Road, which, like its fabled namesake, offered visitors just about anything they desired.

The arrest has thrown light on two disturbing elements of the Internet — the existence of the so-called Deep Web, a massive virtual world that is not visible to most Web users or search engines, and the use of Bitcoin, a rapidly expanding digital currency that allows for anonymous transactions.

These revelations are a reminder that despite fears of living in a surveillance state, substantial parts of the digital world remain unobserved and unregulated — perhaps dangerously so.

The Silk Road, sometimes called the eBay of the black market, was set up in 2011. Its 900,000 users could deal in just about anything illegal, including counterfeit currencies and documents, drugs, guns, hacking services and even murder for hire.

Transactions on Silk Road were conducted in Bitcoin, a digital currency that is actually an open-source protocol running on computers. …

Silk Road and Bitcoin were designed to foster anonymity and permit transactions that would leave no trace of the people behind them.

Ulbricht, charged with narcotics-trafficking conspiracy, computer-hacking conspiracy and money-laundering conspiracy, was arrested not because of ace digital detective work but because he slipped up and left real-world fingerprints.

He was arrested when fake IDs he ordered online from Canada were discovered at a routine border search and the authorities followed them to his home.

Silk Road is only part of larger digital world, often referred to as the Deep Web. Most of us are familiar only with the Surface Web, the part indexed by standard search engines. Those services, however, merely trawl the surface of the worldwide web; as much as 96 percent of the Internet remains beyond their algorithms.

Access to these websites is by invitation only, available only to those who know where to look and which digital doors to knock on. …

Terrorists and criminals deserve no safe havens, but many civil society groups battling authoritarian governments use the same technologies. So, too, do individuals who wish to protect personal information from unauthorized access.

Today the headlines are dominated by reports of unlimited surveillance by the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA). In the case of Bitcoin and the Deep Web, the fear is that the NSA is not doing its job properly.

Law enforcement is waking up to these new challenges, but technology continues to outpace the detectives. Finding people with the right skill set is difficult; being able to afford them when that means competing with the astronomical salaries offered by the private sector makes it a whole new type of challenge.

The bigger question remains, however: How can we ensure privacy while guaranteeing accountability?

If JFK had lived, how would our world be different?

The nation this month is preoccupied with memory: The shots in Dallas. The frantic drive to Parkland Hospital. The agonizing moments of uncertainty, followed by the lingering feeling of incredulity. The scene on Air Force One. The arrest and then the slaying of the accused killer. The coffin in the Capitol.

But it isn’t only memory that haunts us in the run-up to the 50th anniversary of the assassination of John F. Kennedy. We are haunted almost as much by what might have been as by what happened.

What would have occurred in the remainder of the president’s term? In the 1964 election? In a second term, presuming Kennedy was re-elected?

An examination of these questions helps us understand history.

The Vietnam War Few subjects have transfixed scholars, commentators and diplomats as deeply and as persistently as the question of whether the United States would have committed a half million troops (and sent 58,000 Americans to their deaths) in Vietnam had Kennedy won a second term.

There is conflicting evidence, supporting both the notion that Kennedy would have plunged deeper into Southeast Asia and the idea that he would have withdrawn shortly after being re-elected. Both arguments point to an elemental

cynicism: that the president’s fear of being blamed for losing Vietnam would have propelled him into widening the conflict, or that he would risk American lives in a half-hearted cause to preserve his political prospects and DAVID M. then remove troops once his SHRIBMAN own future had been secured.

Overall the better claim goes to the argument that Kennedy would have limited or ended the U.S. role in Vietnam. He and Robert F. Kennedy had visited Indochina a decade earlier and breathed the anti-colonial stench created by the French, who fled in defeat in 1954.

That very year, Kennedy said on the Senate floor that “to pour money, material and men into the jungles of Indochina without at least a remote prospect of victory would be dangerously futile and self-destructive.”

Though a devout Cold Warrior, Kennedy was chastened by the Bay of Pigs and less vulnerable, as he put it, “to plunge into an irresponsible action just because a fanatical fringe in this country puts so-called national pride above

•

national reason.”

In his “JFK’s Last Hundred Days,” published this autumn, Thurston Clarke repeatedly cites examples of Kennedy resisting entreaties to increase the American commitment to Vietnam, where, JFK told his reporter friend Charles Bartlett, the nation didn’t “have a prayer of prevailing.”

Race Kennedy’s evolution on civil rights outpaced the nation’s, but lagged that of his Ivy League circle.

Well into his administration, he was logically but not emotionally committed to equal rights and integration. But as he employed the rhetoric of “freedom” while prosecuting a Cold War abroad, he came to see the incongruity and hypocrisy in the nation’s domestic life. Eventually the sight of American authorities clashing with American citizens at lunch counters, schoolhouse doors, bus stations and in the streets was more than he could bear.

Some of that transition occurred during his struggle with Gov. George C. Wallace of Alabama, which prompted his race speech in June 1963. But some of it happened two months later, after the March on Washington. The principal organizers visited Kennedy in the White House the evening of the march. “I have a dream,” Kennedy told King in that setting, at that

• moment enlisting fully in King’s cause. There was no turning back.

The youth rebellion The Port Huron Statement, the Students for a Democratic Society manifesto written by Tom Hayden in 1962, sometimes is regarded as the clarion of 1960s upheaval, but much of the decade’s social, political and cultural tumult grew out of opposition to the Vietnam War and impatience on civil rights.

So it is possible to posit that a withdrawal from Vietnam and a frontal assault on segregation might have prevented or ameliorated the rebellion of the 1960s.

Kennedy was a hero to American youth — but he had more in common with the Rat Pack than with the counter-culture. He was

a libertine, but did not flaunt his sexual adventurism; he acknowledged he was a combination of promiscuity and Puritanism. Even his language was antiquarian; he spoke of “dames,” not “chicks.”

He was a drug abuser, but his drugs were prescription medications meant to ease his pain, not to provide a sense of ease or elevated consciousness.

Kennedy had an inherent suspicion of big business — he took on the steel barons in a celebrated 1962 confrontation — but believed in capitalism. His heroes were establishment figures like Marlborough, his blood raced to the rhythms of Kipling, his heart swung to the beat of Sinatra. He was more idealistic than iconoclastic.

Kennedy wouldn’t have thrown in his lot with the new culture — but he wouldn’t, and probably couldn’t, have stopped it. The rebellion of the 1960s might have been less rooted in protest with Kennedy alive, but the new generation, reared in the prosperity of the consumer culture and the probity of the college campus, was going to create a world that went beyond JFK, even had he lived to witness it — and be bewildered by it.

NEW YORK (AP) — Six months before he died, John Lennon set sail from Newport, R.I., on an ocean adventure to Bermuda that awakened his desire to make music again and is now being chronicled in an electronic format he could not have conceived of.

A new app, “John Lennon: The Bermuda Tapes,” is being offered for sale on Apple devices for $4.99. It’s loaded with interactive features, music, photos and interviews that detail a relatively unexamined slice of the former Beatle’s life.

More important, it opens the door to a potentially potent new creative outlet for musicians and the struggling industry.

Users of the app can simulate the six-day journey through the recollections of two crew members and Lennon himself, in a Playboy interview conducted shortly after the trip. They can virtually visit the disco where Lennon heard a recording of The B-52s’ “Rock Lobster,” which reminded him of his wife Yoko Ono’s music and coaxed him back to work.

They can eavesdrop on the creative process as Lennon’s last recordings took shape.

The project’s director, “LennonNYC” filmmaker Michael Epstein, said he

wanted to recreate the experience of becoming immersed in a record album, which he feels is lost in a world of electronic music files.

“That relationship that MP3s have severed, we tried to put back together,” he said.

Lennon’s wife had encouraged John to take the Bermuda trip in June 1980, which turned into a deeply cathartic experience.

“He was a macho guy in a very old-fashioned way and he just wanted to conquer things,” Ono said. “And he did. It was amazing.”

A few days into the trip they ran into a strong storm. Two crew members became violently seasick and the captain, Hank Halsted, succumbed to exhaustion. A rock star and novice sailor was left to keep the “Megan Jaye” afloat despite the wind and waves. The crew members remember Lennon singing sea chanteys as he steered the ship to safety.

The experience gave Lennon some pride at a time in his life when he was having some issues with self-confidence, she said.

“It opened up a kind of frozen part of his soul and he started creating,” she said.

Lennon excitedly called Yoko after hearing “Rock Lobster” and they started writing songs together in

AP

In this April 2, 1973 file photo, John Lennon and his wife, Yoko Ono, speak at a news conference in New York. Six months before he died, Lennon set sail from Newport, R.I., on an ocean adventure to Bermuda that awakened his desire to make music again and is now being chronicled in an electronic format he could not have conceived of. A new app, “John Lennon: The Bermuda Tapes,” is being offered for sale on Apple devices for $4.99. It’s loaded with interactive features, music, photos and interviews that detail a relatively unexamined slice of the former Beatle’s life.

a sort of call-and-response style, with Ono back in New York. The result became the “Double Fantasy” album.

Epstein interviews B-52s members for the app and they discuss the influence she had on their music.

“There was nothing that

was making us feel good at the time,” said Ono, who is still recording at age 80.

“The whole world didn’t want my music. They were feeling almost abusive about my creative work and that really choked him up in a way.”

Book looks behind scenes of 2012 race

BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

For political junkies missing the drama of presidential election years, a new book on the 2012 race — exhaustive and replete with juicy details — may tide you over.

“Double Down” by journalists Mark Halperin and John Heilemann is a follow-up to “Game Change,” their much-discussed account of the 2008 election that was adapted into an HBO movie.

“Double Down” follows the same formula: sharp writing and intriguing behind-thescenes nuggets that are sure to get tongues wagging.

Because their sources spoke on deep background, it’s difficult to assess how

Next to The Home Depot

accurate the anecdotes are, but overall they generally seem consistent with the candidates, the players around them and how the race played out.

It’s hard to miss the irony of a scene where President Barack Obama tells a group of aides and political operatives that he needs to be able to trust them and trust that what he says will stay in the room.

Clearly that didn’t happen, and the authors report a list of his first-term regrets/ second-term goals: climate change, immigration reform, poverty, Israel-Palestine, Guantanamo Bay and gay marriage.

The bipartisan penchant for dropping f-bombs is

striking, as is the degree of infighting in the various campaigns. Also remarkable is revisiting the fates of the half-dozen Republican candidates who had brief moments in the spotlight and at the top of the polls, only to come crashing down. The authors note that Newt Gingrich drew a crowd of 6,000 in Naples, Fla., in mid-January, when he was on a roll during the debates; in Orlando less than two weeks later, the voters who turned up to hear him speak at an event numbered a mere 42.

The stories behind GOP nominee Mitt Romney’s gaffes are intriguing.

His infamous 47 percent

comment at a fundraiser — where he appeared to say that almost half the electorate is dependent on government aid — came as he was on a “ceaseless dash for cash,” the authors write, that left him exhausted. His off-the-cuff comment that his wife drives “a couple of Cadillacs” preceded a speech that was apparently edited until the last minute, leaving no time for a run-through. A British-born Obama staffer reading an NBC News transcript of an interview with Romney noticed the newsworthiness of his appearing to question how ready London was to host the Olympics and shipped it to friends in the British press.

Cornwell writes 21st Scarpetta mystery NEW YORK (AP) — Patricia Cornwell never runs out of ideas for her intrepid forensic investigator, Kay Scarpetta.

“Cybercrime is now a really big deal, and so Scarpetta is inevitably going to get involved in crimes that have to do with the Internet, or the high technology with communications,” the best-selling author said during a recent interview at the Manhattan offices of The Associated Press.

“I also have to look at the types of weapons that are available now, because those might be used in one of her cases, whether an extremely high-tech firearm or it could be a very bizarre knife of some kind an assassin might use, or poison.”

Cornwell talked about invented crime, true crime and the facts and fiction behind her 21st Scarpetta novel, “Dust,” which has just been published.

The novel is a characteristically tangled mystery that begins with the discovery of a young woman’s body at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge.

On her body is a mysterious residue, dust that becomes colorfully visible under ultraviolet light and leads Scarpetta on a frightening hunt for the truth.

The plot of “Dust” is imaginary, but the book includes some references to crimes in the headlines. The 2012 school shootings in Newtown, Conn., happened while Cornwell was working on “Dust,” and when the author realized they took place near Scarpetta’s fictional office, she made sure that Scarpetta volunteered to help on the crime scene. “Dust” also refers to the Wall Street scandals of recent years. The murder victim in “Dust” had a pending lawsuit against her former financial managers, the kind of legal battle Cornwell learned firsthand after suing a financial firm and earlier this year being awarded nearly $51 million by a federal jury.

“Regardless of my personal situation about having your trust violated in a financial situation, I think there’s been a lot of people in our society who have been appalled by the abuses in the financial

industry,” Cornwell says.

“Some bad guys get met with poetic justice, you might say, in the end.

And I think she (Scarpetta) found it quite gratifying.

And maybe I did, too.”

Cornwell describes Scarpetta as Cornwell one of those obsessively curious souls who never relents on a case. Scarpetta shares Cornwell’s “very analytical mind,” the author explains. She likes to investigate the most well-traveled territory as if never seen before “because you might be startled by something that’s in plain view that people have missed for 125 years.”

Cornwell wrote a controversial book in 2002 that purported to solve the mystery of Jack the Ripper’s identity, and she follows modern stories closely, from the trial of Casey Anthony to the murder of Jon Benet Ramsey. She believes the Amanda Knox case in Italy is an example of a poorly investigated crime, rejecting speculation that British exchange student Meredith Kercher was killed as part of a wild sexual ritual. (Knox and then-boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito were jailed, then freed, and are currently being tried again.)

“The case is not the elaborate scenario it’s been spun to be. Instead, it’s more a sexual predator who went after this woman and tried to rape her, or did. And it’s a very violent assault,” Cornwell says.

“They’ve made a great big deal about the victim’s stomach contents and how they placed the death at a certain time because her food had not really digested all that much.

It’s like, ‘Hello, when you go into flight or fight mode, your digestion either shuts down completely or at least it slows, because all the blood is going to your extremities so you can defend yourself or run.’ And if somebody is being assaulted, their digestion quits. I’ve seen it in the morgue where somebody who ate 8-10 hours earlier — their food is exactly as they swallowed it.”

Yellen stands by low rates WASHINGTON (AP) — Janet Yellen made clear Thursday that she’s prepared to stand by the Federal Reserve’s extraordinary efforts to pump up the economy when she’s chairman, if that’s what it needs.

During a two-hour confirmation hearing before the Senate Banking Committee, Yellen embraced her so-called “dovish” reputation and expressed strong support for the Fed’s low interest-rate policies. And she warned critics that any potential harm those policies pose are outweighed by the

“I believe that supporting the recovery today is the surest path to returning to a more normal approach to monetary policy,” she said.

Yellen faced tough questions, particularly from Republicans. But she also drew praise from senators in both parties and is expected to be confirmed by the full Senate, becoming the first woman to lead the powerful central bank.

A committee aide said that Banking Chairman Tim Johnson, D-S.D., plans a

vote as soon as possible, potentially next week.

“We have the utmost respect for you,” Sen. Joe Machin, a centrist Democrat from West Virginia, told Yellen.

Her testimony represented a strong defense of the Fed’s policies pursued under Chairman Ben Bernanke, which were launched to combat the Great Recession and the financial crisis.

The latest efforts include spending $85 billion a month on bond purchases, which are intended to lower long-term interest rates.

AUBURN — Thursday’s announcement by President Barack Obama may have little effect on private health insurance customers in northeast Indiana, a local agent said.

The president said most people will be able to keep for another year any health policies that were being canceled because they did not meet new federal standards.

The area’s leading insurers, PHP and Anthem Blue Cross, already have effectively extended their policies one year by moving up renewal dates to Dec. 1, said Rick Roark of Roark’s Insurance Service in Auburn.

The renewal change makes those policies effective through Dec. 1, 2014, Roark said.

However, Roark said, “I had six different insurance companies pull out this year that no longer are going to offer health insurance.” For their customers, he said, “I have to find someone that will take them. If they’re uninsurable, the companies

At the White House, Obama acknowledged that “we fumbled the rollout of this health care law” and pledged to “just keep on chipping away at this until the job is done.”

He also promised to work to regain the trust of the American people.

“I think it’s legitimate for them to expect me to have to win back some credibility on this health care law in particular and on a whole range of these issues in general,” he said.

• Roark said 48 percent of people are expected to be eligible for subsidies reducing their premiums. He added, “If you don’t qualify for subsidy, I’m seeing the rates at least 50 percent higher than today’s rates.”

Consumers need to know that in their subsidized policies, Anthem Blue Cross will not have coverage for Lutheran network hospitals, and PHP will not handle Parkview hospitals, he added.

enormous pressure from congressional Democrats to give ground on the cancellation issue under the health care overhaul, a program likely to be at the center of next year’s midterm elections for control of the House and Senate.

It’s unclear what the impact of Thursday’s changes will be for the millions of people who have already had their plans canceled. While officials said insurance companies will now be able to offer those people the option to renew their old plans,

companies are not required to take that step.

Insurance companies will be required to inform consumers who want to keep canceled plans about the protections that are not included under those plans.

Customers will also be notified that new options are available offering more coverage and in some cases, tax credits to cover higher premiums. Under Obama’s plan, insurance companies would not be allowed to sell coverage deemed subpar under the law to new customers.

Specializing in health coverage, Roark is one of the few agents who have become certified to help people buy insurance through the Affordable Care Act. “If anyone calls up, I tell them to hold off until December. Let’s make sure there is going to be an Affordable Care Act,” Roark said. “If the healthcare.gov website is up and running, we will be able to write those that lost their coverage.”

The law currently sets a Dec. 15 deadline to sign up for coverage effective Jan. 1, 2014.

“There’s still a possibility that none of this is ever going to go through. If this gets delayed one year, there’s a good possibility that there won’t be an Obamacare plan,” Roark said.

If the health care law remains intact, Roark expects his business to grow. He said an estimated 10,000 people in DeKalb County do not have health insurance and would be in the market to buy coverage.

Dawson tallies 1,000th in Garrett win

BY PHIL FRIEND pfriend@kpcmedia.com

GARRETT — With Lakewood Park Christian’s starting point unavailable due to an injury, Garrett’s girls basketball team applied defensive pressure in a major way in Thursday night’s DeKalb County matchup. The Railroaders forced the Panthers into 55 turnovers for the game — 31 in the second half — and held them to 21 percent shooting from the field (8 of 39) en route to a 80-24 rout on Garrett’s home floor.

The game will also be remembered for the milestone attained by Garrett senior Brandi Dawson, who reached 1,000 career points in the third quarter.

She finished with a game-high 28 points to land her evenly at 1,000 points.

“It means a lot knowing that my team put a lot of effort into that. it just means so much. Words can’t really explain it,” Dawson said. “When I got told I was just 28 points away coming into this game, I was just really shocked and happy.”

Dawson nearly earned a tripledouble, leading the Railroaders with 12 rebounds and eight steals while also adding two assists.

After scoring 31 points Tuesday against Churubusco, she’s now averaging 29.5 points per game.

“It’s good for her. She deserves it,” said Garrett head coach Bob Lapadot. “It’s an awkward moment in a game like this. But we go on the road for three games, so we really wanted her to do it (at home). Her teammates wanted it, and we just played our game.”

without its starting point guard, junior Natalie Mafera. She reinjured her ankle in Saturday’s scrimmage against Prairie Heights and coach Pam Chaney believes Mafera will return next week.

But Garrett’s pressure defense showed no mercy. Of the Panthers’ 55 turnovers, 37 were Railroader steals. Besides Dawson’s eight steals, Emily Somers had seven steals, Drue Bodey had six steals, Rachel DePew tallied five steals Kaitlin Wisel had three swipes.

“Thirty-seven steals tells you that it was good defense. Some of the balls just went out of bounds, but we were making things happen

defensively,” Lapadot said. “The nice thing is that we were able to do that in our half-court; we really didn’t press much. We just played good half-court defense. I’ve never been part of a game with that many turnovers. It was one of those ragged games and I’m glad we played well.”

Garrett committed 22 turnovers on the night.

Railroader sophomore Taylor Smith was also in double figures with 16 points, while adding five rebounds. Wisel chipped in nine points, Somers had seven points and Rachel Stafford had five points.

Jamie Budreau led the Panthers with seven points, and Khrystyna Thompson hit a pair of 3-pointers for six points. Emma Dusseau finished with five points and 10 rebounds, and Hannah Priskorn had five points and nine rebounds.

Dusseau scored with 1:15 left in the first period to cut Garrett’s lead to 8-4. The game went haywire from there as Garrett then went on a 24-5 run over the next 5:30-plus to lead 32-8.

BRUSHY PRAIRIE — Winning on opening night is always a good measuring stick for what’s in store during the season ahead.

And coaching the team that you grew up with to victory in your first career game at the helm, that should be a good sign as well.

Prairie Heights girls basketball team opened the season with a victory for the eighth season in a row on Thursday, topping Hamilton 65-32 in Northeast Corner Conference game.

It was also the first game for Jennifer Holden as head coach of the Prairie Heights girls basketball team.

“Being back and coaching on this floor, it’s good to come away with a win, and a good win,” Holden said. “I just

thought it was a good team effort. Everyone contributed in some way.”

Holden is the daughter of the late Gordon Grabill, a long-time supporter of Prairie Heights athletics.

She is a 1993 graduate of Prairie Heights and has several years coaching experience J. Holden in the lower levels of the DeKalb program.

Holden takes over for Kevin Frey, who coached the Panthers for three seasons. Heights went 10-12 last season and was 14-8 the year before under Frey, who graduated from Prairie Heights.

“A year ago I came here as a teacher,” Holden explained. “The job opened up when Kevin retired and

I always wanted to come back home.”

Prairie Heights returns its top two scorers from last season. Shawna Carbone and Tressa Terry each averaged 14 points per game. Carbone was also the rebound leader on the squad a year ago, while Terry led in steals, assists and 3-pointers made.

The duo was at the forefront in Thursday’s game with Hamilton.

Carbone finished with a game highs of 19 points and 18 rebounds.

“Carbone helps underneath, she’s a go-getter and a hustler on the court,” Holden said.

Terry had team-highs of seven assists and five steals. She also scored 13 points.

Other returners with considerable playing time a year ago for the Panthers are Saige Dunafin (4.4 ppg), McKenzie Kain (3.7 SEE HEIGHTS, PAGE B2

In all, eight players scored for the Panthers in the opener. Following Carbone and Terry were Kain (10 points), Haley Kleeberg (9), Dunafin (6), Alicia Beechy (4), Havanna Kleeberg (2) and Jordon LeMay (2).

Hamilton was led by 13 points from senior Sanne Van Roessel.

“We have a lot of freshmen. It’s a learning curve for them,” Hamilton coach Mark Stiver said. “To go from middle school to varsity is a huge jump. The tempo is a lot different.”

Stiver begins his third season as the head coach of the Hamilton girls basketball team. The Marines were 8-14 last season and 10-12 in 2011-2012. Prior to Stiver taking over, Hamilton had went 0-20 and won just three games over a three-year span.

Depite the team’s youth, Hamilton does return three of the team’s top four scorers, all seniors. Lindsey Upp (9.4 ppg), Van Roessel (6.5 ppg), and Taylor Merritt (3.7 ppg) are back.

Merritt finished with seven points on Thursday, with six points for sophomore Katelyn Wilson and three points each for freshman players Emma Gaff and Leslie Petrie.

The only time the Panthers trailed against Hamilton was 2-0 at the outset. Carbone and Haley Kleeberg followed with four points each as Heights went up 8-2. Van Roessel and Merritt followed with scores to cut the Panther lead to 8-7, but Heights scored the final six points of the opening stanza; a steal and score by Terry, a triple from Kain, and a Kleeberg free throw.

Heights struck with a 9-0 run midway through the second quarter, getting five points from Terry and four from Carbone. Both had steals to power the run and the Panthers led 35-17 at the half.

run to lead 62-12 with less than two minutes left in the third quarter. During that stretch, Dawson scored 13 of her 28 points to reach the 1,000-point plateau.

“We knew that we wanted the ball and we just wanted to put a lot of pressure on them,” Dawson said. “We’ve been working on defense a lot in practice and just wanted to do it more in the game, too.”

Dusseau ended the run on a basket with 1:14 left in the third. The Panthers went 12 minutes without a field goal in that stretch in the second and third quarters.

Thursday’s game was Lakewood Park’s season opener. The Panthers’ top three scorers from last season all graduated, leaving Chaney in full rebuilding mode.

“With a team that’s going to pressure you that

much and be on you, you have to have someone’s that confident with their dribble and we’ve got to work on how to get people open and how to help each other out.”

wick on defense in the third period, holding the Marines to just four points.

“We switched our defense back to man,” Holden explained. “We tried to be more aggressive and put more pressure on the ball.”

The Panthers took a commanding 51-21 margin into the final stanza.

Despite the loss, Stiver made it clear his Marines will continue to improve.

“This is a starting point, not the end,” he said.

The Marines will have over a week before returning to action against West Noble in Hamilton’s home-opener on Friday, Nov. 22.

“Hopefully we see improvement next week against West Noble,” Stiver said.

Hamilton’s girls will have several doubleheaders with

and December. Both teams play away games at Lakewood Park on Nov. 6, Fremont on Dec. 14, and Central Noble on Dec. 27.

The Marines have a home doubleheader scheduled for Dec. 7 against Lakeland Christian.

Prairie Heights has a tough road schedule ahead, playing seven of eight games away from Panther country. Heights will travel to Elkhart Christian on Nov. 16, Woodlan on Nov. 19, and Lakeland on Nov. 22.

They’ll return home on Nov. 29 for a NECC game with Westview, before heading back out to road games against Wawasee, Garrett, Bethany Christian and Fairfield.

“We want to take away something from every game, keep building,” Holden said.

“If I could get up and dance right now I would, but I don’t have much room to do that,” he said. “When I get off camera, I probably will.”

Cabrera took the AL prize for the second straight year, once again winning by a comfortable gap over Angels outfielder Mike Trout.

A season after posting the majors’ first Triple Crown in 45 years, Cabrera came back to lead baseball in hitting at .348 and finish second with 44 home runs and 137 RBIs. Cabrera got 23 of 30 first-place votes, becoming the first player to win consecutive AL MVPs since Frank Thomas for the Chicago White Sox in 1993 and 1994.

“This is unbelievable,” Cabrera said, young kids buzzing around him. “I’m so excited right now.”

McCutchen ranked among the NL leaders by hitting .317 with 21 home runs and 84 RBIs. He also scored 97 runs, stole 27 bases and had a .404 on-base percentage.

The 27-year-old with the long, flowing dreadlocks helped the Pirates stop a record streak of 20 losing

seasons and make the playoffs for the first time since 1992.

McCutchen, third in MVP balloting last season, got 409 points. Arizona first baseman Paul Goldschmidt finished second with 242, while St. Louis catcher Yadier Molina received the other two first-place votes and came in third.

Goldschmidt hit .302 with 36 homers and 125 RBIs. Molina batted .319 with 12 homers and 80 RBIs, and virtually shut down opponents’ running games.

Molina and Goldschmidt each won a Gold Glove, too.

McCutchen’s win came two days after Pirates manager Clint Hurdle was picked as the NL Manager of the Year. McCutchen was the first Pittsburgh player to win the MVP since Barry Bonds in 1992.

The Pirates went 94-68 this year, a season after going 79-83. Along the way, McCutchen became the face of the franchise and heard loud “MVP!” chants when he would step to the plate at PNC Park this summer.

“I’d lie to you if I said it didn’t enter my mind ever,” he said. “It’s awesome to hear something like that.”

Pittsburgh beat Cincinnati in the NL wild-card game, then lost to St. Louis in a division series that went the full five games.

Boston wound up beating St. Louis in the World Series. No one on the Red Sox or Cardinals won any of the major BBWAA awards.

Trout got five first-place votes and came in second, 103 points behind Cabrera.

The difference was 81 points last season, when Trout was AL Rookie of the Year.

Baltimore first baseman Chris Davis, who led the majors with 53 homers and 138 RBIs, was third. Davis and Oakland third baseman Josh Donaldson each received a first-place vote.

Cabrera took his third AL batting title in a row. He also drew a $1 million bonus for winning a second MVP during his current contract with the Tigers.

“I was so nervous because it was a great competition,” he said.

The 30-year-old third baseman from Venezuela also captured the AL MVP last year when he hit .330 with 44 homers and 139 RBIs. Cabrera topped Trout 22-6 in first-place votes in that balloting.

Other scorers for West Noble were Shawna Young 2, Becca Schermerhorn 4 and Kenzie Cox with a free throw.

Bruins down Columbus in overtime BOSTON (AP) — Milan Lucic saved the Boston Bruins from a lackluster defensive night, blocking a shot in the final minute of overtime and turning it into the game-winning goal.

Lucic stepped in front of a shot by Cam Atkinson just inside the blue line and the puck took a big bounce toward the Columbus end with nobody between Lucic and Blue Jackets goalie Sergei Bobvrosky. Lucic corralled the puck and poked a shot between Bobvrosky’s pads.

“It’s my first overtime goal that I ever scored and it ends up being a big one,” said Lucic, who leads the Bruins with eight goals.

Loui Eriksson and Shawn Thornton also scored the Bruins.

Boston goalie Chad Johnson stopped 32 shots, making his third start this season with No. 1 netminder Tuukka Rask getting a night off.

Columbus was coming off a 4-3 overtime loss in Washington on Tuesday and has won just once in the last eight games.

Boston’s two goals in regulation both came on unintentional deflections and another fortunate bounce allowed the Bruins to extend their winning streak to four straight.

Atkinson’s shot bounced hard off Lucic and headed straight in the opposite direction. Even Lucic called it a “lucky bounce” as the Bruins won despite getting outshot 12-7 in the third period and 2-1 in overtime.

“It feels the same. It’s still an empty feeling,” Columbus coach

Todd Richards said of the second straight loss in OT. “There were a lot of good things in the third period, but it’s still the result.

You know, we need to win games and we need two points here, not just one.”

The Blue Jackets also didn’t help themselves, going scoreless on four power-play opportunities.

Bobvrosky made 28 saves for the Blue Jackets, who took a 1-0 lead in the first on Blake Comeau’s second goal of the season.

SPORTS BRIEFS • N.Y. Jets sign Ed Reed FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — Rex Ryan bolted out of his office the moment he heard Ed Reed was cut.

He wanted to make sure general manager John Idzik knew one of his favorite players was available for the New York Jets to pursue.

“It’s only a rumor that I pulled a hamstring,” Ryan said, grinning. “That’s not true.”

The Jets signed the nine-time Pro Bowl safety Thursday, bringing one of the NFL’s greatest playmaking defensive players to a secondary on a defense that ranks 24th against the pass. The 35-yearold Reed was released Tuesday by Houston, cleared waivers Wednesday and joined less than 24 hours later.

“John had a big smile on his face,” Ryan said about the Jets’ GM. “I think he anticipated it, but he had already beaten me to the punch. He had already set it in motion with our scouts.”

Reed joined his new Jets teammates on the practice field wearing a green No. 22 jersey; his familiar No. 20 is currently worn by cornerback Kyle Wilson. Reed laughed when he was asked if he thinks he’s got anything left.

“I don’t think I’d be here if they didn’t think that,” he said after his first practice with the Jets. “I know what I know. I know how I feel and I know what I’ve put in my offseason workouts. I’m ready to go. You’ll see.

“You guys can be the judge of it.”

The Jets released outside linebacker Ricky Sapp to make room on the roster for Reed.

IndyCar star Franchitti retires

BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Dario Franchitti kept racing after the death of best friend Greg Moore. He continued on following the death of former teammate Dan Wheldon. He was eager to drive into his early 40s.

He won’t get the chance.

The three-time Indianapolis 500 winner and four-time IndyCar Series champion reluctantly and abruptly retired Thursday, saying doctors told him it would be too dangerous for him to continue racing because of injuries sustained in a harrowing crash last month.

“Racing has been my life for over 30 years, and it’s really tough to think that the driving side is now over,” Franchitti said.

Franchitti fractured his spine, broke his right ankle and suffered a concussion in the Oct. 6 race at Houston, where his car made contact with Takuma Sato’s car on the last lap and sailed into a fence. Debris from the accident injured 13 fans in the grandstands and one IndyCar official.

The 40-year-old Franchitti underwent two surgeries on his ankle and recently returned home to Scotland to recover.

“One month removed from the crash, and based upon the expert advice of the doctors who have treated and assessed my head and spinal injuries post-accident, it is their best medical opinion that I must stop racing,” Franchitti said. “They have made it very clear that the risks involved in further racing are too great and could be detrimental to my long term well-being.

Based on this medical advice, I have no choice but to stop.”

Franchitti did not use the word “retire” in a lengthy statement released through Target Chip Ganassi Racing, the team he joined in 2009 following a brief stint in NASCAR with Ganassi a year earlier.

Clipper Barnes apologizes LOS ANGELES (AP) — Matt Barnes is apologizing to his Los Angeles Clippers teammates and coaches for getting ejected and then sending out a profane tweet.

Barnes, along with Oklahoma City’s Serge Ibaka, got ejected, and Blake Griffin of the Clippers received a technical foul for their parts in a scuffle with 6 seconds left in the second quarter of their game Wednesday night.

Griffin was trying to put the ball up and his arms and Ibaka’s became entangled.

Barnes shoved Ibaka hard in the chest.

Griffin kept trying to get at Ibaka as players from both teams formed a scrum.

After his ejection, Barnes used a derogatory term in a profane tweet that began “I love my teammates like family,” but went on to suggest he was tired of backing them up because his actions “cost me money.”

Those actions ended up costing him $25,000 on Thursday when the NBA fined him for failing to leave the court in a timely manner and using inappropriate language on Twitter.

“I was completely wrong for pushing Ibaka & then for what I tweeted following the altercation,” Barnes posted Thursday on his verified Twitter account. “My poor choice of words & timing do not reflect who or what I am about.”

Prosecutors received case on Florida State QB Tuesday TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — An assistant state attorney says prosecutors in Tallahassee did not receive information about an 11-month-old sexual assault allegation involving Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston until Tuesday.

Tallahassee police investigated the Heisman Trophy contender in connection with a sexual assault that was reported nearly a year ago in an off-campus apartment. FSU records show the first report was made to campus police on Dec. 7 by a student at a dormitory. The investigation was handed over to Tallahassee police.

Wild past putting marriage in jeopardy DEAR ABBY: This is my wife’s second marriage.

When we were dating, she led me to believe that I was the second sexual partner she had ever had. Shortly after our wedding, I found out through some mutual acquaintances she had attended college with that she had been very promiscuous during her college years and that the number of men she has been with is far greater than two.

I feel lied to and trapped in my marriage. (If I had known this, I would not have married her.) She knows I know. She dismissed it by saying the past doesn’t matter, but what she fails to recognize is that it matters to ME. I can’t help but wonder if she has lied to me about something this important, what else will she lie to me about?

I love her and want to stay with her, but I feel betrayed and, frankly, embarrassed by her now. What do I do? —

your attitude or do her a favor and think about ending your marriage. From my perspective, the number of lovers she has had since the wedding is far more important than the number she had before.

Please be aware that many women in our society have had multiple partners, so if you’re looking to replace your wife anytime soon, you may be hard pressed to find a woman with no experience. If you want to salvage your marriage, I strongly recommend you talk to a therapist, but don’t spend your money unless you can forgive your wife for being afraid to tell you the truth.

Normal temp can range either side of 98.6 high 12 hours later.

There also is some inaccuracy in the way we usually take our temperature. Our mouth is a convenient place to measure our temperature. But to the body, core body temperature — the actual temperature inside ASK the body DOCTOR K. — is what counts. Core temperature generally Dr. Anthony isa degree or so higher Komaroff than the temperature in our mouth because, for most of us, most of the time, the air we breathe in through our mouth is cooler than our core body temperature. The best way to

measure our core temperature is by rectal or inner-ear measurement.

If a “normal” temperature is variable, and not just a single simple number, why do we bother to take it? Because temperature outside that normal range of 97.5 to 98.9 degrees is often an indicator of disease. If you’re not feeling well, and your temperature is 101 degrees, or 96 degrees, there’s something wrong.

Your doctor has a diagnosis to make.

The most common cause of elevated body temperature is infection. Almost any infection in the body can cause fever.

But there are other causes of elevated body temperature, including heat stroke or a drug reaction.

Although it happens less often, abnormally low body temperature can indicate a condition such as an underactive thyroid. Once, I was called to see a patient with a body

Almanac •

DEAR DOCTOR K: Even when I’m feeling fine, my body temperature is rarely 98.6 degrees. I thought that was the normal temperature.

Should I be concerned?

DEAR READER: It’s still taught to schoolchildren: Normal human body temperature is 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit.

But people are different from one another. That’s as true of their body temperature as it is of their height, the size of their ears or the color of their hair.

What is a “normal” temperature? Researchers have measured the body temperatures of thousands of healthy people. They’ve found that normal oral temperatures range from 97.5 to 98.9 degrees. About one in 20 people have temperatures even a bit lower or higher.

Each person’s body temperature also varies by 1 or 2 degrees over the course of the day. It reaches a low between 2 a.m. to 4 a.m., and a

CONFOUNDED IN THE SOUTH DEAR CONFOUNDED: People lie when they feel threatened, when they want to impress someone or when they’re ashamed of something.

The lie your wife told you may fall into the latter category. She wasn’t honest about the number of men she had been with because she you DEAR knew would react ABBY the way you have.

You say Jeanne Phillips you love her, but if you truly feel embarrassed by the fact that you’re not the second man she has slept with, then you either need to change

temperature of 95 and a heart rate of 35 (normal is 60 to 80).

His thyroid was so underactive that his heart and metabolism were really slowed down.

When a person’s body temperature goes too far outside the normal range, it’s bad for the body — sometimes really bad. That’s because the cells of the body depend on a narrow temperature range for thousands of internal chemical reactions to occur properly. Severely low or high body temperature can lead to permanent organ damage, even death.

So don’t be concerned about a body temperature that’s not exactly 98.6, so long as it’s in the normal range.

And when it’s not, particularly if you are not feeling well, it’s time to call the doctor.

Boston crime boss Bulger gets life Bennett allegedly campaigned with state resources BOSTON (AP) — Former Boston crime boss James “Whitey� Bulger was led off to prison Thursday to begin serving a life sentence at 84 for his murderous reign in the 1970s and ’80s, accepting his punishment in stone-faced silence even as a judge castigated him for his “almost unfathomable� depravity.

Bulger’s sentencing brought to a close a sordid case that exposed FBI complicity in his crimes and left a trail of devastated Bulger families whose loved ones — fathers, uncles, brothers and sisters — were killed by Bulger or his henchmen.

Many of the relatives had vented their anger at Bulger during the first day of his sentencing hearing on Wednesday, calling him a “terrorist,� a “punk� and “Satan.�

So when U.S. District Judge Denise Casper announced the punishment and Bulger was led from the courtroom, there were no shouts of joy or applause from the families, just silence.

Afterward, many said they took some comfort in knowing that Bulger will spend the rest of his life behind bars. “That old bastard is finally going to prison. He’s going to die in prison,� said Tom Donahue, whose father was gunned down by Bulger after he happened to offer a ride home to a man who was Bulger’s actual target.

Theresa Barrett Bond, left, daughter of slain Arthur “Bucky� Barrett, stands outside federal court in Boston Thursday with her son Justin, who holds a photo of Barrett with help from family friend Kari Hicks, as Sandra Patient, Barrett’s niece, stands at right. Former Boston crime boss James “Whitey� Bulger was sentenced Thursday to life in prison for his murderous reign in the 1970s and ’80s. Families of many of his alleged victims attended the proceedings.

Boston’s Irish mob, fled the city in 1994 after being tipped off by a former FBI agent that he was about to be indicted. He was a fugitive for more than 16 years until he was captured in Santa Monica, Calif., in 2011.

His disappearance became a major embarrassment for the FBI when it was learned that corrupt Boston agents had taken bribes from Bulger and protected him for years while he worked as an FBI informant, feeding information on the rival New England Mafia.

A jury convicted Bulger in August in a broad racketeering case. He was found guilty in 11 of the 19

Bulger, who was known for his volcanic temper, snarled obscenities at several once-loyal cohorts during his trial, but he said nothing at all at his sentencing and left the courtroom without even looking at one of his brothers or other supporters.

Bulger’s lawyers said he believes his trial was a “sham� because he was not allowed to argue that a now-deceased federal prosecutor gave him immunity to commit crimes.

Defense attorney Hank Brennan blasted prosecutors for plea bargains given to Bulger associates who testified against him.

killings he was accused of, along with dozens of other gangland crimes, including shakedowns and money laundering.

At his sentencing, the judge read off the names of the 11. She told Bulger she sometimes wished that she and everyone else at his trial were watching a movie because the horrors described — including stranglings and shootings — were so awful. “The scope, the callousness, the depravity of your crimes are almost unfathomable,� she said.

Casper sentenced Bulger to two consecutive life sentences plus five years, as prosecutors had requested.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Former Indiana schools Superintendent Tony Bennett is accused of using state resources for political reasons in a complaint filed with the state’s ethics commission Thursday.

The complaint from Inspector General David Thomas alleges Bennett improperly used state resources to engage in political fundraising, schedule campaign meetings and conduct other political or personal activity in violation of Indiana law.

A hearing is scheduled for Jan. 9.

The move comes two months after The Associated Press reported Bennett kept multiple campaign databases on Department of Education servers and ordered his staff to dissect a speech by his Democratic opponent for inaccuracies last fall. Bennett’s computer calendar also included more than 100 entries labeled “campaign calls� between July 2011 and November 2012.

Bennett released a statement Thursday saying he looks forward to working with the commission and Thomas’ office “to demonstrate proper adherence to state rules and guidelines.� “Throughout my time in public service I made every effort to be cognizant of and to follow state rules and guidelines for elected officials,� Bennett said.

state employees from engaging in political activity, including seeking contributions, while on duty or acting in an official capacity. It also bars state employees from working on anything outside their official job duties while on the clock, or ordering others to do so, and from using state resources for political purposes.

Violating the official duties law, known as the “ghost employment� statute, is a felony punishable by up to three years in prison.

State Senate Minority Leader Tim Lanane, who called for an investigation of Bennett’s actions in September, welcomed Thomas’ complaint. “The commission needs to find out exactly what happened, what the facts are,� the Anderson Democrat said in a telephone interview.

Indiana Democratic Party Chairman John Zody issued a statement saying Bennett, a Republican, “led a culture of corruption by misleading Hoosiers and abusing the trust of the office to which he was elected.�

Bennett was a national star in conservative education circles until an AP story showing he oversaw changes to Indiana’s school accountability system in 2010 after learning that a school founded by a prominent GOP donor — and which he had consistently hailed as a top performer — had scored a C.
