Tearful council raises utility rates Sewer charges to increase by 30% BY AARON ORGAN aorgan@kpcmedia.com

WATERLOO — The Waterloo Town Council Tuesday night approved heavy increases to both water and sewer rates for the town. Council President Candi Surber broke down in tears as she explained to one resident why hikes of 30 percent to the town’s sewer rates and 28.8 percent to water rates are necessary. That resident told the council that she and many others would not be

able to afford the increases, which translate to the average water customer paying an additional $8.40 per month and the average sewer customer being billed $19.16 more monthly. Town financial consultant Jeff Rowe of the Umbaugh firm explained the hikes are necessary to rebuild both utilities’ cash balances and reserves, repay outstanding bonds and perform and capital improvement projects at the water and sewer plants.

Rowe said the town has not raised rates in eight years, while costs to run the utilities climbed steadily and the cash balances have slowly eroded to well below where they should be. Town Manager DeWayne Nodine said one reserve account should have $65,000, but Surber it’s currently more than $30,000 overdrawn. The recipe has left the utilities broke and getting broker, and

Rowe said a rate adjustment is needed immediately. “As to the question whether it’s prudent to move forward at this time (with the rate increases), absolutely,” Rowe told the council. “It’s very important, in my opinion, that the town move forward as quickly as possible in order to start replenishing those cash balances.” With the increases, the cash balances figure to be recovered within the next two years. Capital improvements that would be funded through the rate increases SEE UTILITY RATES, PAGE A8

Small kitchen fire evacuates students WATERLOO — DeKalb High School students were evacuated from the building Wednesday at lunchtime when a small, contained fire in the kitchen food warmer was reported, Superintendent Sherry Grate said. Grate said the Waterloo Fire Department responded in a timely manner, and classes resumed as normal for the afternoon. Grate said parents were notified of the fire and evacuation through the district’s Alert messaging system. “We are appreciative of the prompt response of staff, students and the fire department to the incident today,” Grate said Wednesday.

White House shifts the burden

Bloomberg watched the ceremony for his final time in office. Carol Eckna recalled the contagious laugh of her son, Paul Robert Eckna, who was killed in the north tower. “Just yesterday, you were 28,” she said. “Today, you are 40. You are forever young. Dad and I are proud to be your parents.” The anniversary arrived amid changes at the Flight 93 National Memorial in Shanksville, where construction started Tuesday on a new visitor center. On Wednesday, the families of the passengers and

WASHINGTON (AP) — The White House tried Wednesday to pin the success or failure of a diplomatic option to secure Syria’s chemical weapons on Russia rather than the United States as Secretary of State John Kerry headed for Geneva to work on a Russian proposal for international inspectors to seize and destroy the deadly stockpile. On a different diplomatic front aimed at taking control of the stockpile away from the Assad government, the five permanent members of the U.N. Security Council met Wednesday at Russia’s U.N. mission to consider goals for a new resolution requiring Syria’s chemical weapons to be dismantled. They left without commenting, but whether a U.N. resolution should be militarily enforceable was already emerging as a point of contention. Rebels who had hoped U.S.-led strikes against the Syrian government would aid their effort expressed disappointment, if not condemnation of the U.S., over President Barack Obama’s decision to pursue diplomacy in the wake of a chemical weapons attack in the Damascus suburbs last month that the U.S. says killed more than 1,400 people. “We’re on our own,” Mohammad Joud, an opposition fighter in the war-shattered northern city of Aleppo, said via Skype. “I always knew that, but thanks to Obama’s shameful conduct, others are waking up to this reality as well.” With the American public focus on diplomacy rather than military might, Vice President Joe Biden

President Barack Obama lowers his head during a moment of silence at the Pentagon

Wednesday, during a ceremony to mark the 12th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks.

Nation remembers 9/11 NEW YORK (AP) — Life in lower Manhattan resembled any ordinary day on Wednesday as workers rushed to their jobs in the muggy heat, but time stood still at the World Trade Center site while families wept for loved ones who perished in the terror attacks 12 years ago. For the families, the memories of that day are still vivid, the pain still acute. Some who read the names of a beloved big brother or a cherished daughter could hardly speak through their tears. “Has it really been 12 years? Or 12 days? Sometimes it feels the same,” said Michael Fox, speaking aloud to his brother, Jeffrey, who perished in the south tower. “Sometimes I reach for the phone so I can call you, and we can talk about our kids like we used to do every day.” On the memorial plaza overlooking two reflecting pools in the imprint of the twin towers, relatives recited the names of the nearly 3,000 people who died when hijacked jets crashed into the towers, the Pentagon and in a field

near Shanksville, Pa. They also recognized the victims of the 1993 trade center bombing. Bells tolled to mark the planes hitting the towers and the moments when the skyscrapers fell. In Washington, President Barack Obama, first lady Michelle Obama, Vice President Joe Biden and wife Jill Biden walked out to the White House’s South Lawn for a moment of silence at 8:46 a.m. — the time the first plane struck the south tower in New York. Another jetliner struck the Pentagon at 9:37 a.m. “Our hearts still ache for the futures snatched away, the lives that might have been,” Obama said. A moment of silence was also held at the U.S. Capitol. In New York, loved ones milled around the memorial site, making rubbings of names, putting flowers by the names of victims and weeping, arm-in-arm. Former Gov. George Pataki, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and others were in attendance. As with last year, no politicians spoke. Mayor Michael

Colleen McNabb-Everage will sing Sunday from 4-6 p.m. in a free concert at Auburn’s Eckhart Public Library Park.

AUBURN — The Auburn Arts Commission’s Pianos on the Square event concludes this weekend with a full lineup of free entertainment. All performances will take place in Eckhart Public Library Park. The weekend will kick off with music from the Auburn Community Band Saturday from noon to 2 p.m. Auburn couple Tim and Sharon McEntee will perform Saturday from 3-5 p.m. They moved to Auburn seven years ago from Cincinnati, Ohio, to be closer to family. Tim McEntee was born and raised in northern Allen County and attended Carroll High School. He started taking piano lessons when he turned 8. The lessons were a birthday present from

his musical parents. He quickly added organ and recalls playing at church events on the pipe organ at such an early age, he barely could reach the pedals. In his teens and beyond, he was a keyboardist for various musical groups. Sharon McEntee, from Dayton, Ohio, sang in church at an early age. She was in several high school and college plays and musicals and sang backup and lead vocals with a Christian contemporary band. In her mid-20s, she purchased her first guitar and taught herself to play by learning the chords of traditional folk music. The couple were married in 1987 but did not start performing music together until after they moved to Cincinnati in 1990. They were asked to join the worship team of their church, which had a large contemporary Christian

Crash hurts motorcyclist WATERLOO — An Ohio man was injured when a car struck his motorcycle Wednesday at 6:09 a.m. in Waterloo, the DeKalb County Sheriff’s Department said. David E. Daniels, 42, Edgerton, Ohio, reported pain to his right hip, right knee and left arm. Police said Daniels was riding a 1986 Yamaha Fazer motorcycle eastbound on U.S. 6. Cynthia A. Oberlin, 34, of Waterloo, driving a 2012 Ford Taurus

sedan, told police she did not see the motorcycle. She began to make a left turn from Center Street onto U.S. 6 to go westbound. Oberlin’s car hit Daniels’ motorcycle on the right side, throwing him onto the hood of the car. Police cited Oberlin for alleged failure to yield at a through highway. She declined medical treatment. The Waterloo Fire Department and DeKalb EMS assisted at the scene.

Meth dealer to serve 2 years AUBURN — An Auburn woman was sentenced to two years in jail and four years of probation for dealing in methamphetamine by Judge Monte Brown during a hearing Wednesday in DeKalb Superior Court II. Sarah Pfefferkorn, of the 1700 block of South Sprott Street, pleaded guilty to the Class B felony crime as part of a plea agreement. The charge originally was filed as a more serious Class A felony, but the severity was reduced as part of the plea agreement. Pfefferkorn received credit for 263

days she served in jail while her case was pending. If she qualifies, she may serve the remainder of her sentence on the DeKalb County Community Corrections program. Pfefferkorn’s attorney, DeKalb County Public Defender Daniel Pappas, said he believed Pfefferkorn when she indicated she was not a drug dealer. “Surely this was a one-time event in her life,” Pappas added. He said Pfefferkorn will be a good candidate for probation and has a low risk of reoffending.

Prairie Heights seeking 50th anniversary items BY JENNIFER DECKER jdecker@kpcmedia.com

BRUSHY PRAIRIE — The Prairie Heights School Corp. is looking for historical items telling the story of its storied 50 years in education as a community center. This year marks the corporation’s 50th anniversary and Prairie Heights Superintendent Alan Middleton said the public’s help is sought in sharing historical items. “It’s a celebration of 50 years. We want to show kids the history from 1963-65,” he said. Over the years, the corporation was formed with the consolidation of country schools in Orland, Flint, Salem and Mongo in 1963. While those four schools are gone, Middleton said the look back through history causes a reflection on what was and how it came to be. During that time, Middleton said the corporation has long been characterized by being close knit with an emphasis on agriculture. “Agriculture has always

Middleton said the anniversary has nothing to do with his retirement in heading the corporation, which will come at the end of the current academic year. Neither are related.

“We need to step back. Our goal is to put up pictures. If there’s any pictures of construction — that’d be great,” he said. Middleton said the gathering of the corporation’s history is rather interesting, as he and his staff don’t know what will be brought in. “We had someone come in the other day with a Salem letter jacket,” he said. “We got a yearbook.” Those who would like to lend any mementos of Prairie Heights’ history for the anniversary are asked to call Middleton at 351-3214. Items may also be brought to the administration office, 305 S. C.R. 1150E, for loan. Middleton said copies of photos from originals can be made at the office. Plans are being finalized to further celebrate the corporation’s history. Once those are finalized, the details will be announced. “There will be a night we’ll use to spearhead it,” Middleton said. “The goal is to get artifacts on display.”

WEST LAFAYETTE (AP) — A Purdue corn specialist says the combination of dry weather and extreme heat during critical weeks for kernel weight development is causing Indiana’s once-thriving corn crop to deteriorate. Bob Nielsen says not every field of corn is in dire straits and there will be fields that yield well. But he says there also will be fields with significant yield losses due to excessively dry soils and very hot temperatures.

Gathering promotes suicide awareness BY DAVE KURTZ dkurtz@kpcmedia.com

AUBURN — Suicide rates are rising, but a group gathered Tuesday night in Auburn with the aim of doing something about it. “Suicide is preventable,” said the Rev. Jess Jessup, patrol chaplain for the DeKalb County Sheriff’s Department. “We’re going to make an impact on our communities and our county.” Jessup spoke to 30 people in the Biblical Garden of Auburn Presbyterian Church at A Gathering of Hearts and Minds for Suicide Awareness, a first-time event. “Our goal here tonight is to be informed, involved and equipped,” Jessup said. “We can make a difference.” The gathering included public officials, mental health professionals, suicide survivors and people who have lost loved ones. Jennifer Barnes, a facilitator of the We the Living support group in Fort Wayne, spoke to the gathering. Barnes said she lost a high school friend to suicide in 2002 and her father the following year.

“Looking back 10 years ago, I wish more people had tried to comfort us,” Barnes said. “Give then an hour of your time” she said about suicide survivors. “Please do not put a time frame on survivors’ grief” by telling them it is “time to move on.” We the Living meets the second Wednesday of each month from 7-8:45 p.m. at Plymouth Congregational Church, 501 W. Berry St., Fort Wayne. “It’s a safe place to share any number of feelings and to learn to cope with this new life we’ve been dealt,” Barnes said. The support group’s Web site is wethelivingfw. org. She also mentioned the Out of the Darkness Walk for suicide awareness, scheduled for Oct. 19 at 11 a.m. in Foster Park, Fort Wayne. Jessup read a proclamation from Auburn Mayor Norman Yoder, declaring this as National Suicide Prevention Week in Auburn. “Suicide is largely preventable – all Hoosiers can help prevent suicide by becoming aware of

LAX screener arrested after making threats LOS ANGELES (AP) — A Los Angeles International Airport security screener was arrested hours after quitting his job for making unspecified threats referencing Wednesday’s Sept. 11 anniversary and calling airport officials and telling them to evacuate terminals, the FBI said. Parts of the nation’s third-largest airport were cleared and searched late Tuesday. Nothing was found and there were no major disruptions to flights. The former screener,

Car bomb set off in Benghazi TRIPOLI, Libya (AP) — A car bomb tore through a Libyan Foreign Ministry building in the eastern city of Benghazi on Wednesday, a powerful reminder of lawlessness in the North African nation on the anniversary of a deadly attack on the U.S. consulate there as well as the 2001 terror attacks in the United States. Prime Minister Ali Zidan issued a stern warning to militias blamed for much of the violence that has plagued Libya since the overthrow of dictator Moammar Gadhafi two years ago, proclaiming that “we will not bow to anyone.” But the challenges are mounting. The prime minister said that armed men had just stormed a post office in the capital, Tripoli, taking employees hostage. A witness at the scene, speaking on condition of anonymity because of security concerns, told The Associated Press that the attackers were seeking to cut off mail to the southern city of Sabha in retaliation for a rival tribe from Sabha cutting off the water supply to Tripoli for a week, forcing hospitals and homes to rely on wells and large tanks. Other groups have shut down oil fields to protest corruption or demand regional autonomy, causing the country to lose out on millions of dollars a day in potential revenue. The Benghazi blast caused no deaths or serious injuries, but destroyed the Foreign Ministry branch building in an attack rich in symbolism. The building once housed the U.S. Consulate under the rule of King Idris, who was overthrown in 1969 in a bloodless coup led by Gadhafi. The bombing took place about 6 a.m., well before anybody was due to arrive

People gather at the site of a car bombing in Benghazi, Libya, Wednesday. A powerful car bomb exploded Wednesday near Libya’s Foreign Ministry building in the heart of the eastern coastal city of Benghazi, security officials said, one year to the date after an attack there killed the U.S. ambassador and three other Americans.

at the Foreign Ministry for work and at a time when the nearby streets were nearly empty. The explosion blew out a side wall of the building, leaving desks, filing cabinets and computers strewn across the concrete rubble. It also damaged the Benghazi branch of the Libyan Central Bank. Pictures circulated on Facebook showed men carrying dead doves, with one person commenting that “the dog who did this will be punished for the guilt of killing doves.” Another photo shows black smoke smoldering out of the charred Foreign Ministry building, along with wrecked cars and burned palm trees. A green tarp was later placed over part of the building. The blast also rocked Benghazi’s main boulevard, Gamal Abdel-Nasser, which runs through the city from

Since September began, a U.S. strike on Syria has gone from seeming imminent to being something that may or may not ever happen. The risk that a confrontation with Syria could spread means most investors would be happy if the U.S. doesn’t act, said Cam Albright, director of asset allocation at Wilmington Trust Investment Advisors. “Markets are much more happy when they don’t have to deal with that particular risk,” he said. The S&P 500 edged up 5.14 points, or 0.3 percent, to 1,689.13. The Nasdaq composite fell 4.01 points, or 0.1 percent, to 3,725.01. Disappointment over Apple’s new iPhone lineup dragged down tech

north to south. Several pedestrians were slightly wounded. Mohammed el-Ubaidi, head of the Foreign Ministry branch in Benghazi, told Libyan television that the car carried 60 kilograms (132 pounds) of explosives and was blown up by remote control. No group immediately claimed responsibility for the attack, which came a day after bomb disposal experts defused an explosive device found next to the Foreign Ministry headquarters in Tripoli. “There is a force that doesn’t want a state in place and wants to turn Libya into a battlefield of terrorism and explosions,” said Zidan, the prime minister. “The security situation is tough.” Gadhafi was deposed and killed after an eight-month uprising that descended into a civil war in 2011. Since then, successive Libyan

interim governments have failed to impose law and order. The country remains held hostage by unruly militia forces initially formed to fight Gadhafi. The militias, which have huge stockpiles of sophisticated weaponry, now threaten Libya’s nascent democracy. Car bombings and drive-by shootings routinely kill security officials in Benghazi, the birthplace of the uprising. Deputy Interior Minister Sadik Abdel-Karim described the security situation as “deteriorating.” Tawfiq Breik, a lawmaker with the liberalleaning National Forces Alliance, said that the attacks will continue as long as Libya lacks a strong national army and police. “Even with so many officials assassinated, no one is held accountable,” Breik said. “No one is arrested. The state is disabled.”

stocks. The two S&P 500 stocks with the biggest declines were Apple and the chip supplier Qualcomm, which makes the radio chip used in previous iPhones and is expected to make the chip used in the new iPhones, too. Apple’s new iPhones struck many as only a modest advance from previous models. Investors fretted that Apple is offering the phone’s new operating system for free to people who already own older iPhones, removing an incentive to buy the new model. Also, some analysts felt that Apple’s lowest-priced iPhone — $549 without a two-year cell phone contract — isn’t cheap enough to win many buyers in emerging markets. There was a broad expectation that Apple would cut prices more and go for bigger market share.

Obama haunted by post-Iraq uncertainty A dozen years after 9/11, Barack Obama’s address on Syria provided a sobering insight into US strategic hesitancy. It underlined the extent to which prevarication and weakness have become the hallmarks of the President’s administration in dealing with the challenges of jihadist extremism and global terrorism. As a reluctant belligerent, he has clutched, understandably, at Russia’s proposal to place Syria’s chemical weapons under international control. He has used this to delay the congressional vote on a retaliatory strike against the Assad regime. No one can reasonably criticize Obama for that: a diplomatic way out would be better than military action. But what he could not disguise is the extent to which Syria, like so many current security and strategic issues, is bedeviled by Obama’s penchant for leading from behind. His case for a retaliatory military strike against Syria is well made. It was indeed the “worst chemical weapons attack of the 21st century”. But the case against Bashar al-Assad has been compelling for two years (long before the Syrian rebels were infiltrated by al-Qaidalinked militants). In that time, 100,000 Syrians have been slaughtered. Yet Washington has allowed itself to be outmaneuvered by Russian President Vladimir Putin. Now Obama is beholden to Mr. Putin to get him off the hook. Apart from giving the orders that led to the killing of Osama bin Laden, Obama has failed to provide the firm leadership the post-9/11 world needs. During his re-election campaign, Obama pronounced al-Qaida “decimated” and “on the path to defeat”. … Obama has sometimes bordered on apologetic about America’s global role, sending all the wrong signals to the likes of Iran and North Korea. No wonder governments from Riyadh to Seoul are worried about their reliance on the US. There should be no shame in wisely asserting American power. Libya’s Muammar Gaddafi rapidly surrendered his WMDs when he saw what happened to Saddam Hussein. Military force must always be a last option, but we need more decisive leadership from Washington. Former president George W. Bush had to work assiduously to muster backing from allies and instill fear into enemies after 9/11. Yet, in deriding the legitimacy and success of the US in Iraq, Obama increased his challenges on Syria. The Australian

Don’t scrap school ratings, fix them If it hasn’t already been decided unofficially among Indiana government and education officials, it is probably time for Indiana to completely drop its A-F system for grading individual Indiana schools and start over completely. It just depends on which new version, if any, state leadership decides on. This is the grading system created originally by former Republican Indiana Superintendent of Public Instruction Tony Bennett before he was defeated for re-election by Democrat educator Glenda Ritz, and before he was accused of altering the grading system and thus, improving the grade for a charter school operated by a political ally. Indiana state and legislative officials have begun various reviews of the grading system, one meant to give Indiana parents a better idea of how their schools compare to other schools. Many Indiana educators never took to the grading system, an accountability method created by Bennett’s department, so it would seem that this controversy might create an opportunity to do away with it, and return to more traditional way of judging Indiana schools. Regardless, The Associated Press — which broke the Bennett story — reported Friday that a legislative review has found that Bennett changed the grade for the charter schools as a matter of “quality control.” Perhaps most interesting, they reported that the charter school in question, Christel House in Indianapolis, did not receive special treatment from Bennett. The A-F grading system seems now to be under examination from all sides. In addition to two reviews, a 17-member group consisting of teachers, principals and superintendents has been appointed to oversee the rewriting of the grading system. It will be co-chaired by Ritz. And even before this decision, Indiana legislators had assigned the state Board of Education with rewriting the grading system. Surely, many Hoosiers will be asking whether Indiana really needs a system of comparing each Indiana school. It depends. Do they want to know how their individual schools are doing, or do they want to return to the days of guessing how their schools are doing? In our view, education is just too important to be a guessing game. Evansville Courier & Press

Letters To The Editor • Landscaping, flowers, beautify mausoleum

work and support ensuring the upkeep of the bridge during good times and bad.

To the editor: Most people do not realize the Auburn Mausoleum is an “island.” It is a separate piece of property flanked by its two neighbors. Roselawn Cemetery is located to the north of the mausoleum, and Woodlawn Cemetery is located to the south. As summer draws to a close, I would like to personally thank and recognize the good work of Allen Haynes to maintain the “island” that is the mausoleum. His wonderful landscaping maintenance skills have certainly been demonstrated this season and very much appreciated. Last year’s drought nearly destroyed the newly installed landscaping at the property, but Allen was able to coax it out of its drought-induced stress. Coupled with the beautiful flower planters by Craig Lepard, the mausoleum has taken on an atmosphere of elegance and dignity as the final resting place to some of DeKalb County’s most prominent citizens. The mausoleum is truly a unique architectural landmark, and is bound for the National Register of Historic Places along with its sister mausoleums in Butler, Waterloo and Garrett, officially recognizing their significance. As the Auburn Mausoleum approaches its 100th anniversary in 2017, the restoration continues little by little and step by step thanks to the support of the community. And thanks to the efforts of Allen’s green thumb, and Craig’s flowers, the mausoleum will look its best to receive its official historic honor and designation.

Kudos to the ACD Festival Committee To the editor: To the ACD Festival Committee: Great job! Your committee is to be commended for making the ACD weekend more family oriented, kid friendly! It was so nice having so many fun things to do as a family over this Labor Day weekend right here in our downtown area. You have a committee that makes Labor Day weekend enticing to not just outside visitors/tourists, but to the residents of DeKalb County. Also, this year the new food trucks and Auntie Anne’s pretzels being in town were wonderful, and then the kid-zone was a nice added plus. Please make those a mainstay. With live bands playing and the dancing in the streets by young and old alike … great memories whether watching or participating! Kudos to your 2013 committee! Jess and Brenda Myers Auburn

Future of Steuben County’s tourism is at stake To the editor: As the debate continues about the proposed 4,000 hog CAFO (Concentrated Animal Feeding Operation) to be located centrally within Steuben County’s pristine lake area, I think back of my time growing up on Grand Lake St. Marys in Ohio. My family owned a home on Grand Lake St. Marys where I fished, skied, sailed; worked at a local marina; attended my freshman year of college at Wright State Lake Campus. During the summers there would be months that I literally wouldn’t be in a car because I boated to everything I needed to do. Grand Lake St. Mary’s is dying because of toxic algae that is caused by manure and fertilizer run-off from watershed lands feeding the lake. The major source of the manure and fertilizer comes from the 450 or so mostly family-owned farms located near the lake. These substances feed the toxic algae that robs the lake of oxygen, kills off fish, and releases neurotoxins that are dangerous to humans and pets. The Ohio EPA continuously posts signs warning of “no contact” with the water. The Ohio Department of Health has reported of at least 13 people with illnesses and several dog deaths attributed to the toxic algae. The future of Grand Lake St. Marys’ $160 million tourism industry and 2,600 employees is at stake. The toxic algae problem is exacerbated at Grand Lake St. Marys because of its shallow depth, however the threat is the same for Steuben County’s lakes where the ground is sandy and porous. On Aug. 22 the Indiana Department of Environmental Management held a public meeting to discuss the situation. IDEM has to follow its own rules and cannot directly block the construction of K&D Contract Pork LLC’s CAFO. As stated in a Fort Wayne newspaper “Opinion” section, IDEM can only engage its six to seven inspectors that oversee the existing 1,881 CAFOs in the state. Before Steuben County’s lakes are subjected to the same risks as Grand Lake St. Marys, the Steuben County Plan Commission, Zoning Department and County Commissioners need to take action to protect our lakes that are not only a beautiful source of recreation but also a major economic driver for the area. It would be good to read a response from these agencies about what they are doing to address this looming tragedy. Michael Doseck Fort Wayne

The ‘free’ store near you is worth checking out Think about the last time you were in a giant chain bookstore, with its aisles of best-sellers, its huge children’s section, its walls of mysteries and rooms of romances. It’s got all the classics, along with stacks of photo and art books you can flip through, page-turners that will keep you up all night, books you will read through in one sitting, business books, self-help books, spiritual books, how-to books — something for everyone. Picture that store and how much time you spent there, and how much money you spent when you left. Now, imagine if all the books in that store were free! Every Danielle Steel novel, every David Baldacci and James Patterson thriller, everything ever written by Nora Roberts, Maeve Binchy, Tony Hillerman, Nevada Barr, Louis L’Amour and Alexander McCall Smith — absolutely free. All you have to do is pick out what you like, stick it under your arm and walk out the door. No buzzers go off, no security guard chases you

down the street screaming, “Stop! Shoplifter!” Have expensive tastes? Crave that $65 unabridged audiobook of the new J.K. Rowling? Want to listen to it in your car on your way to work, but haven’t got the scratch? Want to hear the new Jack Reacher thriller JIM or the “Game of Thrones” MULLEN series before you see it on TV? Take it, it’s yours. Thanks, buh-bye. Come back again soon. Sick of reading the same old wormy bedtime story to Junior over and over and over and over and over? The free bookstore stocks hundreds of newly published children’s books each year. Got a Harry Potter fan in your house? The free bookstore has a young adult section with

•

hundreds of fresh, new stories as modern as an iWatch. Walk in, grab what you like, walk out. Why not? They’re free. You want to learn how to debug your computer? Make a quilt? Build a treehouse? Want to know what plants will live in microclimate Zone 6a in your backyard? Was the real “Wild Bill” Hickock anything like they portrayed him in the show “Deadwood”? It’s all in the free books in the nonfiction section. If there’s a book you want that’s not in the free bookstore, they’ll find a copy from another free bookstore in another town and deliver it to the store nearest you. You don’t even have to leave your house to order a book. You can browse the free bookstore on your computer at home and have them save or order free books for you. Or you can just call the free bookstore and they’ll do it for you. The store even has free high-speed Internet connections and free Wi-Fi for laptop users. I know what you’re thinking:

If everything in this bookstore is free, there must be some gimmick, like you have to take a tour of some cheesy timeshare, or you have to buy a bunch of scented candles that you really don’t need. Or maybe you have to donate money to some wacky fringe group selling “I Brake for Sasquatch” bumper stickers. But there is no gimmick; there is no catch. How far would you drive for a store like that, a place giving away free books? A hundred miles? Eighty miles? Fifty? Would you believe there’s a place like that right here in town? Of course, you do have to sign up for a library card, which takes, oh, about a minute. Or you can keep going to that giant bookstore that charges $26.95 plus tax for the same book the library will let you read for free. Hmmm. Talk about a tough choice. Not.

Children’s behavioral classes begin Wednesday AUBURN — Children First will offer the first of five sessions on Redirecting Children’s Behavior parent education at Children First, 1752 Wesley Road, Auburn, beginning next week. The three-hour sessions will meet every Wednesday at 6 p.m., with the first session Sept. 18 and the last class Oct. 16. The cost of the five-week course is $25 per person or $40 for couples sharing books. Two scholarships are available. Pam Deetz, a quality assurance coordinator for First Steps, will facilitate the parenting education class. Deetz holds a master’s degree in psychology from the University of St. Francis and has been in the social services field nearly 25 years. “Because each parent brings a different set of experiences, every session is different,” said Deetz. “After so many years, I am still amazed that it’s never the same.” Deetz serves on the Adult Lifelong Learning action team through Learning Link and the Community Foundation.

overarching goal is encouraging continual learning at all ages. “There are many high-quality resources available to DeKalb County parents, like Children First’s Redirecting Children’s Behavior class, that we hope parents will take advantage of,” said Judy Sorg of Learning Link. Deetz said she strongly believes that any parent can benefit from redirecting. “When we simply react to our children’s behavior, we often come from a place of frustration or control,” she said. “Neither of these creates cooperation, connection and understanding. “There is a powerful moment of time between the stimulus (your child’s whining, bickering etc.) and the time you react. Redirecting Children’s Behavior will provide you with an awareness and understanding of those moments and ways to modify your response.” One of the many benefits of attending and participating in Redirecting is that parents will feel more in control of their emotions, and when their children

Boston airport apologizes for fire drill on 9/11 BOSTON (AP) — Officials at Boston’s Logan International Airport are apologizing for holding a fire drill, complete with smoke and flames, on the 12th anniversary of the Sept, 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. The two hijacked jets that were flown into the World Trade Center towers flew out of Logan. The runway fire drill, announced on the airport’s Facebook page, drew harsh condemnation on social media sites. The Massachusetts Port Authority, the agency that runs the airport, said in a statement that it “apologizes for conducting the fire training exercise and understands that it may have offended many of those touched by the events of Sept. 11.� Several events were held at the airport to mark the day.

People plant United States flags on Old Main lawn for a ceremony commemorating the 12th anniversary of the 9/11

terrorist attacks Wednesday at Penn State University in State College, Pa.

Flight 93 remembered SHANKSVILLE, Pa. (AP) — Under a blue sky and against a backdrop of rolling hills, family, friends and others gathered Wednesday in a western Pennsylvania field to mourn and praise the passengers and crew who died 12 years ago after fighting back against the hijackers of United Flight 93. “In a period of 22 minutes, our loved ones made history,� said Gordon Felt, the president of the Families of Flight 93, whose brother, Edward, was among the aboard the hijacked plane on Sept. 11, 2001.

At the Flight 93 National Memorial ceremony, families of those aboard the plane, along with about 200 people, read the names of 33 passengers and seven crew members aloud, and bells tolled for each, as they marked the 12th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks. As the names were read, a light haze began to burn off the surrounding hills. The memorial wall of white stone has each victim’s name engraved on a separate panel, and the scene was framed by yellow wildflowers in the nearby fields.

Flight 93 was traveling from Newark, N.J., to San Francisco when it was hijacked with the likely goal of crashing it into the White House or Capitol. As passenger Todd Beamer issued the rallying cry “Let’s roll,� he and others rushed down the airliner’s aisle to try to overwhelm the hijackers after learning of the coordinated attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. The 9/11 Commission concluded that the hijackers downed the plane as the hostages revolted.

ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) — The father of a Rhode Island man who was mauled by a grizzly bear in Alaska said Wednesday it’s a miracle that his son is alive after suffering bites to his head and leg. John O. Matson Jr. of Charlestown, R.I., was listed in fair condition Wednesday at an Anchorage hospital. “He’s got a hell of a headache,� said his father, John O. Matson Sr. of Hopkinton, R. I., adding that his 46-year-old son was recuperating after head surgery. “His spirits are great.� The younger Matson was attacked by the bear Monday during a guided bear hunt near Beaver Mountain, about 40 miles southwest of the interior town of McGrath. Bad weather prevented rescuers from quickly reaching Matson’s party of three. Matson was finally rescued from the remote spot on Tuesday. Matson’s father credits the two other hunters, also from Rhode Island, with saving his son. The guide, Steve Persson of Charlestown, and another man the father wouldn’t identify were packing to leave the hunting camp. They planned

to visit their wounded friend later at Providence Alaska Medical Center. “He’s very grateful to his friends,� the elder Matson said. His son, a construction contractor, does not want to speak with reporters about his ordeal, but he does want people to know he’s OK, the father said. Matson Jr. was attacked about 90 minutes after first wounding the bear. Alaska State Troopers spokeswoman Megan Peters said the hunters had initially seen the bear feeding on berries. They were about a mile away and approached the animal for the first time. Matson shot at the bear and saw it roll into bushes, Peters said. The grizzly ran off into heavier brush after it flailed about in the brush for a while. Peters said the hunters waited about 90 minutes, then went after the bear again in some thickets. That’s where Matson was attacked. The two others were a short distance away, and the guide heard Matson scream and fire his weapon. The grizzly ran off after Matson’s friends fired shots at the animal. The three men then headed back to their camp about a mile away.

REMEMBERS: 9/11 museum could open next year FROM PAGE A1

crew aboard United Flight 93 recalled their loved ones as heroes for their unselfish and quick actions. The plane was hijacked with the likely goal of crashing it into the White House or Capitol, but passengers tried to overwhelm the attackers and the plane crashed into the field. All aboard died. “In a period of 22 minutes, our loved ones made history,” said Gordon Felt, president of the Families of Flight 93, whose brother, Edward, was a passenger. Outside Washington, hundreds of people gathered for a short, simple ceremony at an Arlington County plaza three miles from the Pentagon. First responders from the county were among the first on the scene that day. Fire Chief James Schwartz said ceremonies like Wednesday’s — which featured an honor guard and a moment of silence— serve as a reminder of why first responders spend so much time preparing for disaster. “I’ve often said this has been the fastest 12 years

of my life,” Schwartz said. “But if you are a surviving family member, I’d imagine this has been the longest 12 years of your life, because you’re waking up every day with a hole in your heart.” Bloomberg also spoke at a remembrance service for the 84 Port Authority employees killed on Sept. 11 at St. Peter’s Roman Catholic Church, in the shadow of where the World Trade Center once stood. “On that terrible day, we were united in prayer and compassion for all of you who lost loved ones,” the mayor said. “As we woke up this morning, our first thoughts were with you as well.” Dozens of family members and colleagues filled the pews as the Port Authority Police Pipes and Drums played. Around the world, thousands of volunteers pledged to do good deeds, honoring an anniversary that was designated a National Day of Service and Remembrance in 2009. By next year’s anniversary, a 9/11 museum is expected to be open beneath

the memorial plaza in New York City. While the memorial honors those killed, the museum is intended to present a broader picture, including the experiences of survivors and first responders. “As things evolve in the future, the focus on the remembrance is going to stay sacrosanct,” memorial President Joe Daniels said. Douglas Hamatie, whose 31-year-old cousin Robert Horohoe worked for Cantor Fitzgerald and died on 9/11, drew applause from the crowd when he declared that the day should become a national holiday. “The kids today, they know when the next iPhone’s coming out, and they know when the next Justin Bieber concert is, but they don’t know enough about 9/11,” he said. “So let’s change that, please.” The organizers have said they will always keep the focus on the families, and that was evident this year as relatives gathered on the tree-laden plaza, where a smaller crowd gathered — only friends and family of the victims were allowed.

include meter replacements, mapping, numerous equipment replacements at the plants and lift stations, as well as repainting of the town’s water towers. Several residents in attendance told the council that the increases would be hard to handle. One resident said if she had the means, she would move out of the town. “It’s going to be hard for anybody to meet this,” one resident said.

“We don’t have a choice,” Nodine responded. “We know it hurts people — that that’s why (council) resisted so long.” “I don’t know what we can say,” Surber said with tears flowing. “We do not want to do this. If there were any other way, we would take it. We know it’s going to be hard for you.” The rate increases would go into effect Jan. 1, 2014. Residents would feel the impact on their February bills.

UNITED NATIONS (AP) — Key international players were moving on two diplomatic fronts Wednesday to try to put Syria’s chemical weapons under international control, and a fresh effort appeared to be underway to get the government and opposition to peace talks. The five veto-wielding members of the Security Council, who have been deeply divided over Syria, met late Wednesday to discuss what to include in a new resolution requiring that Syria’s chemical weapons stockpile be secured and dismantled. They later left Russia’s U.N. mission without commenting. At the same time, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov were heading to Geneva with teams of experts for broader-ranging talks today about the nuts and bolts of putting Syria’s chemical weapons under international control and destroying them, diplomats said. The U.N.-Arab League envoy for Syria, Lakhdar

Brahimi, was also heading to Geneva to be available to meet Kerry and Lavrov, whose efforts to start peace talks to end the 2 1/2-year Syrian conflict have been stymied by a government offensive and a deadly suspected poison gas attack on Aug. 21. The diplomatic flurry follows the threat of U.S. strikes against President Bashar Assad’s regime and a surprise offer from Kerry that Syria could avert U.S. military action by turning over “every single bit of his chemical weapons” to international control within a week. Russia, Syria’s most important ally, and Assad’s government quickly agreed on the broad proposal, but details still need to be worked out. A senior U.N. diplomat, speaking on condition of anonymity because contacts have been private, said today’s meeting between Kerry and Lavrov will be an exploratory session to gauge whether they can embark on “the herculean task” of dismantling Syria’s chemical weapons while the country is at war.

While serious differences have already emerged — especially on whether a U.N. resolution should be militarily enforceable as the U.S. and its Western allies are demanding — the diplomatic moves represent the first major effort in more than a year to try to get supporters of the Syrian government and opposition on the same page. Russia and China have vetoed three Westernbacked resolutions aimed at pressuring Assad to end the conflict, which has left the U.N.’s most powerful body paralyzed as the war escalates and the death toll surpasses 100,000. “What the secretary-general has been pressing for is the Security Council to come to a united decision,” U.N. associate spokesman Farhan Haq said Wednesday. “It’s crucially important at this late stage of the war that they come together and take some action that can prevent both the problems regarding the use of chemical weapons and the wider problem of solving this conflict.”

RUSSIA: ‘Terrain has changed’ in U.S. Senate FROM PAGE A1

and senior White House officials summoned House Democrats and Republicans for classified briefings. The sessions followed up Obama’s nationally televised address Tuesday night in which he kept the threat of U.S. airstrikes on the table and said it was too early to say whether the Russian offer would succeed. White House spokesman Jay Carney declined to put a deadline on diplomatic efforts to resolve the standoff but said that bringing Syria’s chemical weapons stockpile under international control “obviously will take some time.” “Russia is now putting its prestige on the line,” he said. Asked whether U.S. prestige

also was on the line, Carney said: “The United States leads in these situations. And it’s not always popular and it’s not always comfortable.” On Capitol Hill, action on any resolution authorizing U.S. military intervention in Syria was on hold, even an alternative that would have reflected Russia’s diplomatic offer. Senators instead debated an energy bill. “The whole terrain has changed,” Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., told reporters after a meeting of Democrats on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. “We want to make sure we do nothing that’s going to derail what’s going on.” That didn’t stop Republicans from announcing their

opposition to Obama’s initial call for military strikes and criticizing the commander in chief. Sen. Deb Fischer, R-Neb., who had attended a Sunday night dinner with Obama and Biden, accused the president of engaging in “pinball diplomacy.” “Unfortunately, what we’ve seen from the commander in chief so far has been indecision, verbal gymnastics and a reluctance to step up and lead,” Fischer said in a statement. Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., an outspoken advocate of aggressive U.S. military intervention for months, said he was concerned that the Russian plan could be a “rope-adope” delaying tactic while “the slaughter goes on.”

Colts still grinding out wins INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Andrew Luck embraces the challenge of grinding out victories. He’s done it with his arm, he’s done it with his feet, and now the second-year quarterback would like to figure out how to make things easier on everyone around the Colts’ complex. Things weren’t supposed to be this difficult in 2013 for Luck & Co., after a big offseason spending spree and a change in offensive philosophy. One week into the season, though, little has changed. Indianapolis is still relying on Luck’s strong right arm and his uncanny knack to rally the team. “Guys don’t freak out, if you will. (They) keep playing football, realize maybe you give a little extra focus,” Luck said, explaining the secret to the Colts’ late-game success. “Guys just sort of seem to bear down and play ball.” That’s why eight of Luck’s 12 career wins have come with fourth-quarter comebacks. Why isn’t the same focus around earlier? That’s the million dollar question in Indy (1-0). During Luck’s rookie season, the Colts were outscored 144-96 in the second quarter and were known to have third-quarter lulls, too. It happened again Sunday when the Colts blew a 14-0 lead by allowing Oakland to score 17 straight points. Yet somehow, Luck always seems to bail out the Colts. Against the Raiders, it came with a 19-yard scramble that put Indy ahead for good 21-17 with 5:20

left in the game, which was no surprise to anyone in Indy’s locker room. “From a confidence standpoint, you obviously never feel like you’re out of a ballgame,” coach Chuck Pagano said. “Would we like to be ahead 21, a couple of scores? Sure, we’d love to be on that end of it, but it’s the National Football League and it’s really, really hard to win at this level.” Nothing has been easy about Luck’s transition to the NFL. He was the No. 1 overall choice in a 2012 draft class loaded with quarterbacks and as the hand-picked successor to four-time

MVP Peyton Manning. Then Luck lost his head coach for 12 weeks as Pagano battled leukemia. Somehow, Luck managed to take on the heavy burden and still put up record-breaking rookie numbers. When playoff numbers are included, Luck wound up throwing 681 passes, was sacked 44 times and hit more than 100 other times. Team owner Jim Irsay didn’t want a repeat, so he spent millions of dollars to improve the offensive line. Pagano also hired Luck’s old college offensive coordinator, Pep Hamilton, to call plays when interim coach and offensive coordinator Bruce Arians took

Arizona’s head coaching job. The concept was simple: By protecting Luck and running the ball more effectively, the Colts wouldn’t need the late-game heroics as much. It didn’t quite work out Sunday. Indy averaged 4.9 yards per carry, significant improvement for a team that has produced less than 4 yards five times since the 2006 championship season. Luck, meanwhile, was sacked four times, escaped at least one other sack and took several other big shots — including one on a 20-yard TD pass to Dwayne Allen — and, of course, Luck had to pull it out with the long scramble. Irsay expects the script to change this week against Miami (1-0). “We gotta protect #12 better.. and that includes more than just OL…it’s backs,TE’s,coaches on blitz pick ups..I DEMAND better,” Irsay wrote Wednesday on Twitter. It’s not the first time the owner has used social media to express angst about his team. This time, though, the stakes are higher. Pagano acknowledged Wednesday that the goal each week is to make Luck untouchable on Sunday afternoons. “As long as 12 is upright and on his feet, we’ve got a much better chance of winning than losing,” Pagano said. “We’re fully aware of that and we will do everything, exhaust everything, to make sure we take care of him and keep him clean.”

Reds finish homestand strong CINCINNATI (AP) — The Reds got power from some unlikely players to complete a 7-3 homestand. Devin Mesoraco hit his first home run in more than a month and Jack Hannahan added his first career pinch-hit homer as Cincinnati avoided a sweep by the last-place Chicago Cubs with a 6-0 win on Wednesday. Mesoraco, hitless in his previous 13 at bats, had three to lead the Reds. The homestand included a 3-1 record against St. Louis and three-game sweep of NL West Division-leading Los Angeles. “It felt like I got the monkey off my back,” Hannahan said. “The last two years, I hit home runs on opening day. It was huge.” Hannahan didn’t get many pinch-hit opportunities in the American League. “This is all new to me,” he said. The hit turned a close game into a rout. “It wasn’t easy,”

Cincinnati manager Dusty Baker said. “Everybody was happy for Hannahan. It was big to get those runs.” Cincinnati entered the game in third place in the Central, three games behind the division-leading Cardinals and two behind Pittsburgh. After winning the first two games of the three-game series, the Cubs were in position for their first sweep of the Reds in Cincinnati since May 2001. Mike Leake (13-6) threw 107 pitches in 5 2-3 innings en route to a career high in wins, despite humid conditions and an 84-degree temperature at game time. Leake allowed four hits and four walks with six strikeouts. He joined relievers J.J. Hoover, Alfredo Simon, Manny Parra and Sam LeCure to produce Cincinnati’s 16th shutout of the season, four more than last season. “I didn’t have my best stuff,” Leake said.

“Sometimes you have a few games where a couple of pitches beat you. I was able to make pitches and it worked out.” Leake appeared to be the odd man out when spring training started. The Reds were grooming Aroldis Chapman for a job in the starting rotation. They changed their minds and Leake has prospered. “It’s an accomplishment,” said Leake of his 13 wins. “You can’t plan how your season is going to go. The winds have blown me in the right direction.” Chicago has been shut out 13 times, three fewer than last season. The Reds used small ball in the second for a 2-0 lead. Jay Bruce led off with a single and went to third on Todd Frazier’s softly lined single down the left field line. Both players scored on RBI groundouts to second by Xavier Paul and Zack Cozart, who went 0-for-4 and ended his careerhigh hitting streak at 15 games.

Lion Suh appeals ALLEN PARK, Mich. (AP) — Detroit Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh says he isn’t going to change what he does on the field. And he’s appealing his latest fine, too. Suh was fined $100,000 for an illegal block on a Minnesota Vikings player in the Detroit Lions’ season-opening win last weekend. It is believed to be the NFL’s biggest monetary fine for on-field conduct, not including the dollars lost by players due to suspensions. “It’s going through the appeals process,” Suh said Wednesday. Suh’s agent, Roosevelt Barnes, said he expects the appeal to be heard later this week, when he hopes to provide another perspective to reduce his client’s fine. “Everyone is talking about how Ndamukong shouldn’t have blocked the 300-pound lineman SEE SUH, PAGE B2

Cleveland Indians’ Yan Gomes reacts after popping out to Kansas City Royals’ Justin Maxwell in the fourth inning of a baseball game Wednesday in Cleveland. The Royals won 6-2.

CLEVELAND (AP) — Alex Gordon homered on the game’s first pitch, James Shields dominated after a shaky first inning, and the Kansas City Royals beat the Cleveland Indians 6-2 on Wednesday in a matchup of teams fighting for an American League playoff spot. Kansas City took two of three in the series between clubs that are in contention for the second wild card spot in the AL. The Royals, who entered Wednesday trailing Tampa Bay by three games, moved a game closer to the Indians. Cleveland was 1½ games behind the Rays. The Royals had a home run, a triple and a single on the game’s first seven pitches to take a 2-0 lead. Kansas City added a run in the first inning. Shields (11-9) gave up two runs, two hits, and hit a batter in the bottom half before taking control. Michael Brantley had a two-run single in the first, but Shields didn’t allow another hit until Jason Kipnis’ leadoff single in the ninth. He retired 16 of 17 going into

the ninth, but was removed after allowing singles to Kipnis and Carlos Santana. Shields allowed four hits, struck out seven and walked one. Greg Holland retired the last three hitters for his 42nd save. Gordon jumped on a 90 mph fastball from Scott Kazmir (8-8) and lined it into the seats in right field for his 13th career leadoff homer. Eric Hosmer and Lorenzo Cain added RBI singles. The Indians won the first game of the series and finished 5-4 on their homestand, but failed to gain ground in the playoff chase for the second straight day. Cleveland will begin a seven-game trip in Chicago today. The Indians and Royals meet again in Kansas City for a three-game series next week. Kansas City went 26-18 in a stretch of 44 games in 44 days. Emilio Bonifacio followed Gordon’s homer with a triple. Right fielder Drew Stubbs attempted to make a diving catch, but the ball rolled past him, allowing Bonifacio to end up at third. Hosmer singled to center to make it 2-0.

But the lineman did attempt to catch the linebacker and Ndamukong attempted to block him. But everyone wants to make Ndamukong out to be a villain.” Suh vowed that he’s not going to change his ways on the field, including when Detroit (1-0) goes on the road to play the Arizona Cardinals (0-1) on Sunday. “I’m going to continue to play hard, blue-collar football,” he said.

Richard Childress Racing announced Monday the hiring of Ryan Newman to drive the No. 31 Caterpillar Chevrolet beginning next season. Newman, who now drives for Stewart-Haas Racing, replaces Ryan Newman Jeff Burton. Childress said in a statement that Newman, a 17-time winner on the Sprint Cup circuit, will fit in well with him and his team. “Ryan will be a great fit with CAT and RCR in many ways,” he said. “He’s an outdoorsman, a conservationist and is very familiar with CAT equipment as an owner of some of their products.” Newman had similar sentiments, and offered his comments about Burton’s departure, which was announced last week. “One important thing I sincerely want everyone to know is how much I respect and admire Jeff Burton as a person and driver,” he said. “He handled his recent announcement and situation with respect, class and dignity.”

The 12-driver field for the 2013 Chase for the Sprint Cup was set in Saturday night’s regular season finale at Richmond International Raceway, but the controversy from the finish of the Federated Auto Parts 400 likely will linger for some time. With fewer than 10 laps remaining, Ryan Newman had raced his way into the lead and was poised to take one of the two wild-card Chase berths, unseating Martin Truex Jr. Then, with seven laps to go, after some interesting traffic on the radio channel of Truex’s teammate Clint Bowyer, Bowyer spun. That brought out the caution flag and gave Truex one more chance. Newman headed to pit road for four fresh tires, but Carl Edwards’ crew was faster, and he wound up on the front row for the restart, with Newman fifth. Edwards went on to win, while Newman finished third, but lost the Chase berth to Truex. Dale Earnhardt Jr., who was running immediately behind Bowyer when Bowyer spun, was among the first to question the move. Drivers who qualified for the 2013 Chase are (back row, left to “[Bowyer] just spun right out,” Earnhardt said. “That’s the right) Joey Logano, Martin Truex Jr., Kyle Busch, Carl Edwards, craziest thing I ever saw. He just came right around ... “He was hemming around on the brakes and jerking the car Matt Kenseth and Dale Earnhardt Jr. Front row, left to right: Greg Biffle, Kevin Harvick, Kurt Busch, Jimmie Johnson, Kasey around, and then the thing just spun out. It was crazy.” Kahne and Clint Bowyer. In-car audio from Bowyer’s car also raised questions. After spotter Brett Griffin informed Bowyer that Newman was about to win the race, crew chief Brian Pattie can be overheard saying: “Is your arm starting to hurt? I bet it’s getting hot in there. Itch it.” In their post-race interviews, Bowyer denied spinning intentionally, and Newman seemed more upset about his own crew’s poor performance. “We should have been able to come off pit road first if we were a championship-contending team,” Newman said. “We needed a championship-contending pit crew, and we didn’t have that.” Truex, who finished seventh to tie Newman in points but got the Chase berth on the tiebreaker of most second-place finishes, had little to say about the incident. “I don’t know,” he said. “I don’t have any thoughts on it, honestly. I didn’t even know it happened until after the race.” Carl Edwards celebrates his Federated Auto Parts 400 NASCAR issued the following statement on the matter Sunday afternoon: “NASCAR is reviewing Saturday night’s race at win with his signature backflip. Richmond International Raceway per protocol and has no plans I’m better ready for further statement until that process is complete.” for the Chase and Bowyer’s spin, plus an inordinate amount of time spent in the life in general as a pits afterward, also cost Jeff Gordon a shot at a Chase berth, as 35-year-old.” Joey Logano was able to take advantage of the ensuing caution, The Chase will get the free pass and drive by enough cars in the closing laps to be missing some displace Gordon from the top 10 by a single point. Logano also familiar faces appeared to be helped by the obviously slow laps run by another this year.

Had Logano not been in the Chase passed Bowyer and Vickers and gotten into the top 10 in points, every year he’s run he’d have taken a wild-card berth and left Truex out. a full schedule, and Kasey Kahne took the other wild-card spot, while three drivers without race wins this season — Earnhardt Jr., Bowyer and Kurt Tony Stewart, who missed the 2006 Busch — got in the Chase by being in the top 10 in points after Chase after winRichmond. ning the title in With the standings reset for the start of the Chase, Matt 2005, didn’t make Clint Bowyer’s controversial spin Kenseth, with five wins, is the leader based on his 15 bonus brought out the caution flag; Bowyer points for race wins.

Keselowski said the bottom line is that his cars just weren’t fast But he said he’s looking forward and is not too worried about the enough. recent past. “They haven’t been good enough and we haven’t executed as “When I look at the Chase and the tracks that are in the Chase, well as we needed to,” he said. “We have work to do.

SPORTS BRIEFS • Derek Jeter done for season BALTIMORE (AP) — New York Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter will miss the rest of the season after being placed on the disabled list Wednesday with an ankle injury. Jeter, 39, last played Saturday against Boston. He was removed for a pinch runner after hurting his left ankle, and although a CT scan was negative, Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said the injury will need significant time to heal. “You have to let the pain dissipate and then give it a chance to let the ankle strengthen back up,” Cashman said. “We’re just not going to have the time to do that in any capacity right now. It puts him in a vulnerable situation and risks re-injury or further injury. And that’s not something we are willing to do.” Jeter started the year on the disabled list after breaking his left ankle in the 2012 playoffs. He returned to the DL twice more and played in only 17 games, batting .190 with one homer and seven RBIs. And now, he’s been shelved for a fourth time. “This entire season has been a nightmare for me physically,” Jeter said. “It’s a fitting end.” His departure comes with New York in the thick of the AL wild-card hunt. “It’s very disappointing not to be able to play, especially at this time of year,” Jeter said. “This is when I want to play the most.” The current ankle injury is likely related to the one that occurred last October in the ALCS against Detroit.

SI report: Academic fraud common at Oklahoma State STILLWATER, Okla. (AP) — More than a dozen Oklahoma State football players admitted to academic misconduct over the past decade, including receiving exam answers in advance, passing classes for little or no work and using tutors who completed work for them, according to a Sports Illustrated article released Wednesday. “The philosophy, the main focus, was to keep (top players) eligible through any means necessary,” former safety Fath’ Carter told the magazine. “The goal was not to educate but to get them the passing grades they needed to keep playing. That’s the only thing it was about.” The article was the second of five planned by Sports Illustrated looking at alleged misconduct in the Oklahoma State football program dating to 2001 under coaches Les Miles and Mike Gundy. SI says it interviewed more than 60 former players and found evidence of potential NCAA violations including boosters and assistant coaches paying players thousands of dollars for their play; sham jobs arranged by boosters; selective enforcement of anti-drug policy for players; and football program hostesses who had sex with recruits. Oklahoma State said it has notified the NCAA about the allegations and launched its own investigation. The magazine named 13 former players who said they had work done for them or received other improper academic assistance. One of them, former receiver Artrell Woods, said he didn’t write “a single paper” during his three years at Oklahoma State and simply typed what tutors dictated to him. Dez Bryant, a star receiver now with the Dallas Cowboys, was named secondteam academic All-Big 12 in 2008. Former cornerback Calvin Mickens and former safety Victor Johnson both said they saw tutors do coursework for Bryant, who denied the claim to SI. Miles, now the head coach at LSU, was Oklahoma State’s coach beginning in 2001. Gundy, his assistant, replaced him after the 2004 season and remains the head coach. Miles said he repeatedly told players to “attend class and do the right things.” “Every guy was encouraged to get his degree, to stay the course, and to fight,” Miles said Wednesday on the SEC coaches’ teleconference. He said those making the allegations “weren’t there long enough to figure it out” because they were dismissed from the program.

Texas AD confident in Brown AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Texas men’s athletic director DeLoss Dodds is expressing confidence in football coach Mack Brown, despite the 40-21 pasting at BYU on Saturday. The loss led to a coaching staff shake-up, with Brown replacing defensive coordinator Manny Diaz with former assistant Greg Robinson. In an interview Wednesday with the Austin American-Statesman, Dodds denied rumors of a meeting by himself, school president Bill Powers and Brown after the loss. He also said no such meetings are planned. Dodds said he approved of Brown’s staff shake-up and that Brown has the confidence of himself and the university. In his words, “Mack’s fine.” Dodds also said he’s given no thought to the possibility of retiring.

Beasley returns to Miami Heat MIAMI (AP) — Michael Beasley’s NBA career got started in Miami, and now the Heat are hoping it can be revived in Miami. The troubled forward is back with the Heat, signing a contract on Wednesday that will give him another chance to prove he belongs in the NBA. He was bought out earlier this month by the Phoenix Suns, not long after the No. 2 pick in the 2008 draft was arrested in Arizona on charges of felony marijuana possession and possession of drug paraphernalia.

Nature adapts to changes Walking through the woods with my environmental group this week, we noticed we had all picked up the inevitable pant legs full of hitchhikers. Prickly little burrs house their precious fruit cargo clinging to anything for a ride to a different place. We grant them their freedom when we flick them away or wrestle them out of our dog’s fur and toss them into the yard to start a new cycle. We got to talking about plant adaptation and how uniquely and sometimes aggressively they manage to spread their seeds. My kids take care of the dandelions, but what about adaptive behaviors of other plants? One of my compost bins is a large wooden box that we use mainly for grass

vines of squash, cucumbers and tomatoes practically dripping in piles of green, yellow, orange and red. These “volunteers” pop up from resilient seeds that find a home — often out of season but always welcome. Sometimes we forget that plants are as adaptive as what they are. Look around you this week — the trees are threatening a brown, early autumn that is always a little disappointing. We look forward to the vibrant colors of fall, but did you ever notice that it takes just the right weather conditions for the destruction of chlorophyll that causes the color change? Rain, sun and temperature together can form the perfect storm for the kind of autumn we love. Unfortunately, our little drought this

Occasionally, if one of our children is feeling less motivated, she’ll dump in kitchen compost of TREES instead opening AND one of our TRAILS quick-composting bins.

past month or so may just destroy our color show as the foliage needs to adjust and adapt to the forces of nature. National Geographic defines adaptation as a genetic change or mutation that occurs in order for an organism to survive in its environment. Like humans, plants are always changing to survive in given conditions. Adaptation is fascinating, but the term mutation seems a little disturbing. It could just be the time of year, but the word makes me think of three-eyed frogs and crime-fighting turtles and giant man-eating worms. I may never look at those mutant yard waste compost vegetables the same way. Special thanks to Ruben Ryan for helping put together this week’s column! BRANDY DEPRIEST is the

Tree ID hike part of the Hoosier Outdoor Experience DNR Forestry experts will show how to answer that question during guided tree identification hikes, which debut at the fifth annual Hoosier Outdoor Experience, Sept. 21-22, at Fort Harrison State Park in Indianapolis. The hikes are one of more than 50 outdoor activities offered free. Activities include just about everything from archery and target shooting, to mountain biking, horseback riding, fishing and kayaking. All equipment is provided. All activities, as well as parking and admission, are free.

About 25,500 people attended last year. Room for more participants awaits in the heavily wooded, spacious, historic 1,700 acres of former Army base. Participants can even bring their own food, although food booths will be selling their specialties. The Ford Hoosier Outdoor Experience runs 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. each day that weekend. Made possible by the generosity of Central Indiana Ford dealers, the event is presented by the DNR and the Indiana Natural Resources Foundation. The goal is to

introduce people to outdoor activities they may have never tried. Online advance registration at hoosieroutdoorexperience.IN.gov is requested. Watch there or Facebook. com/HoosierOutdoorExperience for updates and details. Outdoorsy individuals who want to help others learn to share their passion can sign up to volunteer at hoosieroutdoorexperience. IN.gov. For questions about volunteering, contact volunteer coordinator Cheryl Hampton, 317-2331002, champton@dnr.

Gene Stratton-Porter State Historic Site slates wild game cookout ROME CITY — Gene Stratton-Porter State Historic Site invites guests of all ages to come out to Wildflower Woods for a unique and tasty evening on Saturday at 6 p.m. The Wild Game Cookout will offer a wide variety of wild game dishes and desserts made from local produce. “Gene was an advocate for conservation. She

understood the effect of habitat destruction and what would happen if we continued at the rate we were going,” said program director Tiffany Conrad, “She watched the Limberlost Swamp disappear right before her eyes. This destruction caused her to leave Geneva and head north to Rome City. This event will have groups

DUSTIN BY STEVE KELLEY & JEFF PARKER

Feuding complicates gal’s funeral plans DEAR ABBY: I have four siblings. We get along fine as long as we’re apart. During Mom’s and Dad’s funerals, I was dismayed at the degree of tension and bickering among us. I am now dealing with an incurable illness that will shorten my life considerably. I have no desire to put my husband through a funeral hosting a family who never liked him. I prefer to be cremated, and a handwritten letter be sent to each of my siblings after the fact. Is this selfish? I don’t want people saying things they don’t sincerely mean. My letter will not be accusatory, nor will it rake up long-ago hurts. I just want them to know that my husband has carried out my wishes and they should not blame him for doing so. Any thoughts? — KEEPING IT SIMPLE DEAR KEEPING IT SIMPLE: I don’t think your wishes are selfish. You’re

entitled to exit the stage of life in the manner you choose. Because you prefer to bid your siblings goodbye in handwritten letters, go ahead and do it. If I have any advice to offer it is that your DEAR husband ABBY should continue to maintain healthy Jeanne Phillips adistance from your siblings after your death. You can’t prevent them from having whatever reaction they choose, considering the level of dysfunction in your family.

DEAR ABBY: My daughter rents a second-floor apartment with her two little

girls. The tenant on the first floor is on oxygen and smokes cigarettes. I am concerned about the risk of an explosion that could injure my family upstairs. My daughter would like to move, but her lease won’t be up until January. What should we do? I don’t believe she can afford a lawyer unless legal aid is available to her. I find the situation scary. — WORRIED DEAR WORRIED: I find it scary, too. Has your daughter discussed this with the manager of the building? If she hasn’t, she should, and the conversation should be documented. An explosion could harm more neighbors than just her and her children. The smoker is a danger to all.

Diet, exercise gold standard for diabetes healthy weight and exercise regularly have a lower risk of stroke and heart disease. So you’d think that overweight people with Type 2 diabetes also would benefit from a program of intensive diet and exercise. The Look AHEAD trial explored how changes ASK in diet and DOCTOR K. exercise affected heart disease in this Dr. Anthony risk population. e results Komaroff Th weren’t what most people — myself included — expected. The study was a large, randomized trial — the strongest type of study. Researchers recruited more

than 5,000 overweight men and women with Type 2 diabetes. Half were assigned at random to lose weight and maintain their weight loss through intensive diet and exercise. The other group — called a “control group” — met three times a year for group counseling sessions to discuss lifestyle changes to control diabetes. After almost 10 years, the rates of heart attacks, strokes and heart-related deaths were essentially the same in both groups. For many of us, that result was a real downer. That is, until you read the study in detail. For example, the people in the intensive-change group lost only slightly more weight than the control group: 4 percent versus 2.5 percent. So though the research team called it “intensive diet and exercise,” it did not do a lot to achieve the goal of weight loss. A second important differ-

Almanac •

DEAR DOCTOR K: I just heard on the radio that some study says that intensive diet and exercise don’t decrease heart disease risk in diabetics. Is this true? If so, I’ve made a lot of hard changes in my life for nothing. DEAR READER: I assume you’re referring to results from the recently publicized Look AHEAD (Action for Health in Diabetes) trial. The results of this study were reported in June of this year. Several of my patients have already asked me about it, and what I’ve told them is: Take these results with several grains of salt. Here’s what we know: Type 2 diabetes increases the risk of stroke and heart disease, and stroke and heart disease are the leading causes of death and disability among people with diabetes. We also have strong evidence from many studies that people who achieve a

B5

ence between the intensivechange group and the control group is that the latter group was taking more heart-healthy medicines. So any real benefits from the slightly better weight loss in the intensive-change group might have been canceled out by this difference in medicines. Lifestyle changes did have some health benefits in this study. People in the intensivechange group improved their blood sugar with fewer drugs, and they lowered their risk for other diabetes complications such as chronic kidney disease and vision problems. Some patients with Type 2 diabetes who achieve a healthy weight and exercise regularly can control their blood sugar without needing medicines any longer. DR. KOMAROFF is a physician and professor at Harvard Medical School. His website is AskDoctorK.com.
