Veterans supermarket slated for May 17 Dozens of agencies will be available to help local veterans May 17 at the restored Creston Depot located at 116 W. Adams St.

By SARAH BROWN

■

Veterans Affairs personnel from Adams and Union counties are providing a one-stop “shopping” experience for southwest Iowa veterans 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. May 17 at Creston’s Restored Depot, 116 W. Adams St. This “supermarket of veterans benefits” will bring dozens of agencies under one roof to learn about benefits they are entitled

to, but possibly not receiving.

“It’s been seven or eight years since we have had a program like this in Creston,” said Gary O’Daniels, VFW Post 1797 Commander. “It allows veterans to come to a centralized spot instead of driving to Des Moines or Omaha.”

CNA staff reporter sbrown@crestonnews.com

O’Daniels said the “supermarket” is a place for veterans to receive information about eligibility, women’s programs, disability compensation and Disabled Veteran Association, pension and healthcare services such as vision, hearing and mental health. Information about ob-

taining military records, medals and burial in veteran cemeteries may also be addressed.

The event, which is sponsored by the O’Daniels Veterans Affairs Central Iowa Health Care System will also feature local organizations and businesses including, but not limited to Southwestern Community Col-

Twister kills 35 as storm system heads east (MCT) — As a deadly storm system continued its eastward trek Tuesday, the South began tallying its losses from a tornado outbreak that killed at least 35 people in a swath from Arkansas, Oklahoma and Iowa to Mississippi, Alabama and Tennessee.

In Iowa, KCRG-TV reported that Angie Hanchett was killed in her home in Kinross Sunday. Pam Ledger of Keokuk County died Tuesday morning from her injuries sustained after a barn collapsed on her during Sunday’s storm.

The harsh weather carved a wound from the Midwest and eastward, bringing severe thunderstorms, fierce winds and large hail, with the latest tornadoes damaging homes in North Carolina on Tuesday evening. Significant portions of Alabama and Mississippi remained under tornado watch.

Hundreds of injuries have been reported since Sunday as homes and buildings toppled, mobile homes were tossed like toys and heavy vehicles twisted in the wind.

This week’s tornadoes occurred near the anniversary of a 2011 outbreak that left more than 350 people dead across the South. In Alabama, more than 250 people died April 27, 2011, from more than 60 twisters.

This year’s tornado season had a much less severe start but it was still deadly.

Dozens of tornadoes have touched down in recent days, with the majority scouring central Mississippi and northern Alabama on Monday.

Arkansas, especially in the Little Rockarea towns of Vilonia and Mayflower, was especially hard hit Sunday with 15 deaths in three counties. A sequence of at least two tornadoes scoured a nearly straight line of damage through the central part of the state, bringing winds in excess of 136 mph and carving a track more than half a mile wide in places.

Speaking in Washington on Tuesday, Arkansas Republican Rep. Steve Womack said: “The state’s in a state of shock Please see TWISTER, Page 2

lege admissions, Southwest Iowa Hospice and Fredricksen Memorials.

O’Daniels said there may be veterans and dependants who are eligible for various benefits but who, for some reason, have never applied for them.

There is no charge to attend the VA “supermarket.” Refreshments will also be served.

For more information, contact Union County Veterans Affairs Director Blaise Reha at (641) 782-1723.

QUICK NEWS Are you ready for Taste of the Town?

The fourth annual Taste of the Town event will be held in Creston May 9-10 whereby several local businesses will be serving appetizer-type foods to the public during regular business hours.

The theme this year is “On the Right Track.”

“This theme goes back to our heritage of the rail system,” said Ellen Gerharz, executive director at Gerharz Chamber of Commerce. “This is a fun event where you try some tasty foods at local businesses and if you like it, there will be recipes available so you can try making it at home.”

Gerharz said the list of foods being served this year at participating businesses has not been finalized yet, but will be available next week.

Each year, about 20 businesses participate in this event serving items like peanut butter bars, taco soup, chicken wing dip and banana bread.

Teen gets prison for bringing gun to school WATERLOO (MCT) — A former Dunkerton High School student was sentenced to prison Monday for bringing a loaded firearm to school.

Mar’yo Lindsey Jr. was sentenced to five years in prison for carrying weapons, five years for being in possession of a firearm as a felon and two years in prison being in possession of a firearm on school grounds.

The sentences are to be served concurrently.

Lindsey was also given credit for time served on a

count of possession of marijuana.

Lindsey said little during the hearing. His attorney, Matthew Hoffey, said Lindsey was a young man who made a serious mistake. He asked the sentence be suspended.

“No one was ever threatened with this weapon, it was never displayed,” Hoffey said.

Assistant County Attorney Peter Blink pointed out Lindsey had been sentenced under similar charges in juvenile court.

“This defendant continues to surround himself with firearms when he shouldn’t,” Blink said.

Judge David Staudt agreed, and noted the juvenile weapons possession case was adjudicated just a year before a August 2013 incident involving Lindsey.

Lindsey played for the Dunkerton football team, and authorities said he brought a long-barreled Ruger Single Six revolver Please see TEEN, Page 2

Everett Rundlett, 83, of Waterloo died April 28, 2014, at Sunnycrest Nursing Center in Dysart.

Visitation will be 5 to 7 p.m.

Friday and one hour prior to services Saturday at the funeral home. Memorials may be directed to the family.

Online condolences may be left at www.overtonservice. com.

Everett Dean Rundlett, son of Margaret (Speelman) and Robert Rundlett, was born Aug. 22, 1930, in Shan-

non City.

Everett graduated from Arispe High School in 1948.

In 1953, Everett married Henrietta “Retta” Hager.

She died Dec. 14, 2013.

Together, they farmed in southwest Iowa, later moving to Des Moines.

Everett came to Waterloo in 1960 to haul petroleum.

He then became self-employed as a truck driver. He drove 50-plus years.

Everett is survived by his sons, Robert Rundlett of Vinton, William (Deb) Rundlett of Vinton and Jeffory Rundlett of Waterloo; daughter Sue Andriano of Waterloo; and grandchildren, Jessica Rundlett of Des Moines, Josie (Matt) Beecher of College Park, Md., Dakota Rundlett of Vinton and Jason and Allyson Andriano of Waterloo.

to an away game inside a backpack that was stored in his school-issued gear bag in August. He became injured during the game at Riceville and was taken to a hospital for treatment.

School officials took Lindsey’s bag back to school, where they found the weapon loaded with one round. Also in the bag was marijuana, rolling papers and a plastic bag labeled “Maryo” containing a cell phone.

“Clearly you’re not getting the point,” Staudt said.

“You got a heck of a break even then.”

Blink said a prison term would send a message to the community that has a

“plague of violence.”

Lindsey’s friends and family packed the courtroom for the hearing. His father, Mar’yo Lindsey Sr., agreed that some people need an example of consequences for their actions, but added the state found the wrong target.

“I’ve seen people do worse and not go to prison,” said Lindsey Sr., adding his son had no intention of harming anyone.

“I just feel he would have had a chance on probation,” Lindsey said.

right now.” Womack, whose district northwest of Little Rock was spared much of the damage, added: “These will try your souls.”

The dangerous storms moved through Mississippi, where tornadoes began to strike Monday afternoon through the evening. Tupelo, a community of about 35,000 people in northeastern Mississippi, was hard hit and every building in a two-block area was damaged, officials told television reporters.

Officials said nine people died in Mississippi’s Winston County, where Louisville is the county seat, with about 6,600 people. An apparent EF-4 tornado with winds stronger than 160 mph swept the area, severely damaging a medical center and a nursing home.

“For about 30 seconds, it was unbelievable. It’s about as awful as anything we’ve gone through.”

— Sen. Giles Ward

Mississippi

As of Tuesday, the Mississippi Emergency Management Agency confirmed at least 12 deaths across the state.

Ruth Bennett, 53, died saving a child at her Ruth’s Child Care Center when the tornado hit Louisville.

A firefighter who came upon her body gently pulled the toddler from her arms, according to The Associated Press.

EF-4 tornado rocks Mississippi

Officials said nine people died in Mississippi’s Winston County, where Louisville is the county seat, with about 6,600 people. An apparent EF-4 tornado with winds stronger than 160 mph swept the area, severely damaging a medical center and a nursing home.

“It makes you just take a breath now,” said next-door neighbor Kenneth Billingsley, who witnessed the scene at what was left of the center.

“It makes you pay attention to life.”

Bennett’s niece, Tanisha Lockett, said she had worked at Ruth’s Child Care since it opened seven years ago.

She said that all but the one child had been picked up before the storm.

The 4-year-old, whose name was not released, was taken to a Jackson hospital.

“We’re just trying to keep a smile on our faces,” said Jackie Ivy, an employee who was helping with the cleanup Tuesday. “I cried all last night.”

Mississippi Republican state Sen. Giles Ward huddled in a bathroom with his wife, four other family members and their dog Monday as a tornado destroyed his two-story brick house and flipped his son-in-law’s SUV upside-down onto the patio in Louisville.

“For about 30 seconds, it was unbelievable,” Ward told reporters. “It’s about as awful as anything we’ve gone through.”

Another person died in Mississippi when her car either hydroplaned or was blown off a road during the storm in Verona, south of Tupelo.

Three weather-related deaths were confirmed in Alabama, with 19 counties reporting storm damage. One of those tornadoes destroyed the Kimberly Church of God in Kimberly,

Ala. Pastor Stan Cooke was using the church as a community shelter, keeping about 25 people safe underground.

“I cried. I cried,” Cooke said to television reporters. “The church is not the people; the people are the church.”

In southern Tennessee, two people were killed in a home when a suspected tornado hit Monday night, Lincoln County Emergency Management Director Mike Hall told The Associated Press. The winds destroyed several other homes as well as a middle school in the county that borders Alabama, Hall said.

The storm even sent the staff at a TV news station running for cover.

Chief meteorologist Matt Laubhan at NBC affiliate WTVA-TV in Tupelo, Miss., was reporting live on the air about 3 p.m. when he realized that the twister was approaching. He warned viewers and his 35 co-workers to get to safety.

“This is a tornado ripping through the city of Tupelo as we speak. And this could be deadly,” he said in a video widely tweeted and broadcast on YouTube.

Moments later he added, “A damaging tornado. On the ground. Right now.”

“Basement, now!” he yelled to the staff before disappearing off camera.

Iowa man caught with 32 pounds of marijuana SAVANNA (MCT) – A regular traffic stop in rural Savanna on Monday turned into a rather large arrest for the Carroll County Sheriff’s Department.

Deputies say that after pulling over an Iowa man, they found 32 pounds of pot in his car.

Eric T. Irwin, of Nampa, Iowa, was charged with trafficking marijuana.

A Carroll County sheriff’s deputy pulled Irwin over for a regular traffic stop when the deputy requested a K-9 unit, accord-

ing to a news release.

When the extra car arrived, the dog, Illo, “hit” on the car, at which point deputies found the marijuana.

Irwin was taken to Carroll County Jail on Monday.

The sentence for drug trafficking can range anywhere from 6 to 30 years in prison.

OPINION

Plan for someday, but start living for today I wasn’t nervous to give my speech at the Orient-Macksburg National Honor Society induction ceremony until I looked out into the crowd and saw all the familiar student faces.

But they weren’t so familiar anymore; they were older and matured by life’s lessons. They all looked up at me expecting words of encouragement, motivation and hope.

In my now shaking hands, I held an outline of a speech that highlighted the virtues of the honor society — scholarship, leadership, service and character.

What had I accomplished that made me qualified to give a speech

Miles of trials Jake Waddingham associate editor

that would mean anything to the students at O-M? When did I become an expert on being a scholar or becoming a leader?

How had I exemplified proper service and good character?

It felt like just a short time ago I was the one sitting in on the stage at an induction ceremony trying to soak up as many life lessons as I

could before stepping out into the real world on my own.

I was 18 and planning my entire life around someday. I went off to college to gain the knowledge that would allow me to make a difference. I spent time traveling the country. I made new friendships, worked late nights and tried great food.

But before I knew it, the someday I had been planning for all along was that day, on stage at my old high school. I felt old, and more importantly, like I had failed what I set out to do six years ago.

With a wavering voice, I gave my speech. Thankfully, some of the students and parents laughed

at my jokes, but I left Orient feeling like I was not able to convey the importance of living life for today, not just planning for someday.

What I don’t want to happen is for my someday to turn into yesterday. When I look back on my life a couple years from now, I don’t want to regret the times I didn’t go see friends, minutes I could have shared with loved ones or days I should have spent smiling instead of stressing.

I may have gained more from giving my speech at O-M than the people who came to listen. I am still learning a lot about myself and where I want to be, but I can’t

spend my days waiting for someday to happen.

There is a barrenness to a busy life. Filling up every minute of the day with tasks that do not hold any meaning are just as wasteful as the minutes spent procrastinating instead of being proactive.

If you do not know where or how to start living for today, the virtues of the honor society — scholarship, leadership, service and character — are a good benchmark.

This week’s motivation: The trick is to enjoy life. Don’t wish away your days, waiting for better ones ahead. - Marjorie Pay Hinckley

Letter to the editor

Thank you for making the Glow Run a success From Chantel Klejch/First National Bank Relay for Life Team Creston

The city of Creston turned out in full “color” to support the First National Bank Relay for Life Team Hope Glows 5K Glow Fun Walk/Run on Saturday, April 12, at McKinley Park. The event was a huge success thanks to the amazing sponsors, volunteers and over 500 participants.

The First National Bank Relay for Life Team would like to extend our appreciation to the following people: Hy-Vee, along with Chuck Irelan and his family for providing and cooking food; Creston Shooters, Roger Nurnberg and Brandon Vonk for the beautiful fireworks show; Winterstein Construction for the amazing Hope Glows boulders given as prizes; Tiffany Troutwine for her DJ service; Creston Fire Department and Mick Landers for

keeping an eye on the storm; Jo Duckworth for keeping volunteers informed on the storm; Gary McNichols for helping gather and set up generators; AgriVision for providing the John Deere Gators for the day; Creston Park and Recreation, Mark Huff and John Anderson; Caleb with Casey’s North for donating ice; Creston News Advertiser and Kyle Wilson for the wonderful job helping to promote the event; Ferrera Candy Company for donating gummy bears for all the participants; Creston High School Peppers for cheering on all the participants; and Randy Huewe from First National Bank.

We plan to make this an annual event to raise funds for the American Cancer Society Relay for Life of Southwest Iowa. Cancer touches so many lives and through supporters like you, every day we can get a little closer to beating it. Thank you again to all and we look forward to seeing everyone next year.

We like to hear from you!

Jesse Jackson urged the NBA to suspend Donald Sterling HOLLYWOOD — God bless America, and how’s everybody?

L.A. Clippers owner Donald Sterling was caught on tape telling his girlfirend not to bring black people to his games. Fans were angry and puzzled. If Donald Sterling really had that much of a problem with black people, you’d think he would have bought a hockey team instead.

John Kerry warned Israel if it doesn’t adopt a two-state solution it will become an apartheid state like old South Africa. Apartheid is an ugly old system of racial segregation. Donald Sterling heard what Kerry said and he immediately made plans to move the Clippers to Tel Aviv.

Jesse Jackson urged the NBA to suspend Donald Sterling as owner of the L.A. Clippers and he likened Donald Sterling to the antebellum slave owners back in the Old South. That is not fair at all. Say what you want about slave owners, but they never went over the salary cap.

Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel announced plans for the city to build the Barack Obama College Preparatory High School that opens in three years. The school is already plagued with problems.

Hillary Clinton said Saturday older women can still make a difference in politics. She said she doesn’t know if she’ll run for president. With three hundred million Americans, what are the odds she’s the only one in the country who doesn’t know she’s running for president in 2016.

The American Distillers Association over the weekend set up a booth at the National Rifle Association Convention in Indianapolis. The distillers have an issue and this is the place to push it. Millions of people are outraged that Georgia doesn’t grant liquor licenses to gun ranges.

The Beverly Hills Hotel was boycotted by the gays Friday after the hotel owner, the Sultan of Brunei, decreed the death penalty for gay sex in Brunei. This is one of the nicest hotels in the world. At the Beverly Hills Hotel the towels are so thick you can barely close your suitcase.

French president Francois Hollande named his ex-partner Segolene Royal to his cabinet

Friday. He left her for journalist Valerie Trietweiler whom he just left for actress Julie Gayet, twenty years younger than him. Under French infidelity law he could get up to twenty high fives.

Arbor Day was celebrated Friday which is the day Americans appreciate trees and the U.S. pioneers who planted trees as they came west. Trees naturally bring Al Gore to mind. Al Gore will always be a inspiration to every American who ever suffered from Dutch Elm Disease.

The Vatican hosted a canonization ceremony Sunday inducting Pope John XXIII and Pope John Paul II into sainthood. The church is getting pretty lax about the definition of miracles required for canonization. John Paul II was cited for being really lucky at finding parking spots.

North Korea’s Kim Jung Un decided to play nice and not set off nuclear tests while Barack Obama was visiting in South Korea last Friday. After all, they both love NBA basketball. The North Korean dictator has a gentle side, he looks at Dennis Rodman as the uncle he never killed.

Iran’s Ayatollah Khameni began promoting a baby-making campaign, offering a gold coin to every couple that has a baby. He wants to double Iran’s population. If he’s serious about more pregnancies, he may have to join the sixteenth century and legalize cleavage and alcohol.

ACHS implementing state-of-the-art health information technology GREENFIELD — Adair County Health System (ACHS) has entered into an agreement to implement a suite of state-of-the-art health information technology (IT) solutions from Kansas City-based Cerner Corporation, including a secure electronic health record (EHR) system. The EHR system eliminates the need for paper patient health records and acts as the single source of truth for accurate health information.

The new technology provides ACHS clinicians with

access to medical best practices and ensures they have access to the right information at the right time at the point of care. Implementing this technology will also assist ACHS in qualifying for Medicare and Medicaid financial reimbursements provided for in the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act for hospitals that demonstrate meaningful use of health information technology.

Other benefits from the new system for ACHS in-

clude: • Ensuring medication safety. When prescribing medications, physicians can access a patient’s medical history, including allergies and diagnostic results, to ensure accurate medication administration.

• Reducing medical errors.

If a physician were to inadvertently prescribe an adult dose to a child, the decision support features within the system would alert him or her of the potential overdose, as well as drug interactions and alternatives.

O-M FFA members attend 2014 World Food Prize’s Iowa Youth Institute ORIENT — OrientMacksburg FFA members Merritt Caviness and Wyatt Hensley recently attended the 2014 World Food Prize’s Iowa Youth Institute held annually at Iowa State University in Ames.

The Iowa Youth Institute connects students interested in science, agriculture and related fields with Iowa leaders and innovators on the cutting edge of science and research.

Each participating high school student wrote a research paper on a key issue that impacts hunger in another a country, such as water scarcity in Afghanistan or a lack of rural infrastructure in Brazil. The students proposed their own solutions in small-group roundtable discussions facilitated by academic and industry experts, and students and teachers also participated in handson “immersion” activities in research facilities and labs at Iowa State University.

Students also heard from and interacted with 2010 World Food Prize Laureate Jo Luck, Gov. Terry Brans-

• Providing quality care.

The use of standardized treatment guidelines promotes evidence-based, effective and consistent care for every patient while enabling quality improvement and operational efficiency.

• Reducing transcription errors. All care is documented electronically, virtually eliminating the possibility of errors because of illegible handwriting.

• Improving access to information. Clinicians have instant access to patient information when and where

they need it and no longer have to spend time searching for misplaced paper charts.

Additional Cerner solutions will digitize processes in multiple departments, providing instant access to clinical information and integrating workflow with the patient’s EHR. The solutions automate nursing communication, intensive care unit operations, clinician documentation, image management, pharmacy and laboratory operations, medication administration processes, patient accounting

and surgery operations.

“Adair County Health System is committed to providing quality care for our community,” said Angela Mortoza, CEO at ACHS. “Implementing Cerner as our EHR is a step towards making sure our patients’ information is accurate and easily accessible to all of the providers at Adair County Health System.”

Glass bakeware has changed Dear Readers: Many times, a piece of GLASS BAKEWARE may shatter, and it’s not very fun or safe to clean up. As we were talking in Heloise Central about the issue, it came up how many of us have NEVER read the directions.

Or we just use and clean them the way our mothers did. Today’s glass bakeware is not the same as that of long ago. So, here are a few hints for you to think about: • Don’t use bakeware if it is damaged in any way (chipped, scratched or cracked).

• Don’t clean it with anything abrasive or use a metal brush to clean it with.

• The oven should be at the temperature you are going to bake with.

• Rapid changes in temperature (i.e., going from the oven and then placing the bakeware on a cold surface, countertop or metal trivet) are a no-no.

• Don’t use it in a toaster oven. I’ve done this! Who knew?

Don’t buy glass bakeware at a thrift store or garage sale.

You have no idea how it’s been handled, and it may be unsafe. — Heloise SEND A GREAT HINT TO: Heloise

Hints from Heloise P.O. Box 795000 San Antonio, TX 782795000 Fax: 210-HELOISE Email: Heloise@Heloise. com FREEZING CHEESE Dear Heloise: Can I freeze packages of cheese slices (like the cheese slices that are individually wrapped in plastic)?

How about the little blocks of cheese that are wrapped in plastic? I am referring to unopened packages. — Paul A., via email Yes, you can freeze most cheese, including the slices and the blocks wrapped in plastic. Do put the cheese in a freezer-safe plastic bag or container first, though. The cheese may be more crumbly after it’s been frozen, but it is fine to eat. — Heloise CLEAN MICROWAVE Dear Heloise: I learned this hint years ago. Use a microwave-safe 2-cup measuring cup, fill it with about 3/4 cup water, then add a teaspoon

LOCKHORNS® by Hoest & Reiner

of your favorite flavor to it (for example, vanilla, lemon extract, etc.). Microwave on high for a few minutes (until it boils), then shut off the microwave and let it sit for about 15 minutes.

The moisture from the steam will have softened all the cooked-on splatters, and the inside will wipe clean.

Plus, the flavoring will put a nice aroma in your kitchen. — Kathy C., via email DRAWER DIVIDERS Dear Heloise: On a cleaning spree, I decided that my drawers needed some serious reorganizing. I used cleaned cookie and cracker dividers from the packages to hold little things (like buttons and pins in my desk) and cut down cereal boxes to organize my BEETLE BAILEY® by Greg & Mort Walker socks in my dresser, and I am so happy. Nothing gets misplaced anymore! — Helene, via email PERFECT POWDER Dear Readers: If you’re looking for a delicate accent to fruits and desserts, try filling a tea steeper with powdered sugar and shaking to sprinkle the perfect amount onto the goodies. It’s as simple as that!

Horoscope Thursday, May 1, 2014 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) This is an interesting day with new faces and new places. Spontaneous short trips are likely; and your mind is buzzing with bright ideas!

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) You might have clever moneymaking ideas today; however, do keep an eye on your cash and your possessions. If shopping, keep your receipts and count your change.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Today the Moon is in your sign dancing with unpredictable Uranus - this makes you feel restless. You want excitement, but nothing too crazy.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) It’s hard to settle down today because your ruler the Moon is mildly disturbed by another planet and it is hidden in your chart. This is very minor and will be gone in a day.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) A female friend might surprise you today. Or, alternatively, you might meet a female acquaintance who is bizarre or unorthodox. It’s not a boring day!

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept.

22) Conversations with authority figures, especially females, will be unpredictable today.

Someone might say something that excites or offends you.

(Don’t quit your day job.) In any case, it will likely be a positive exchange.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Unexpected travel plans might fall in your lap today. Similarly, a chance to take a course or study something new and stimulating could come your way.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Keep in touch with your bank account and details about shared property, because a few surprises are possible today.

Fortunately, they look like positive issues. (Fingers crossed.)

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Because the Moon today is opposite your sign, you will have to go more than halfway when dealing with others. This is no big deal. Easy peasey for some Sagittarians, who are so friendly and breezy.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Your work routine will be unpredictable today, perhaps because of computer crashes, electronic glitches

or equipment breakdowns.

Or someone unexpected may change your day.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) This is a mildly accidentprone day for your kids so parents should be extra vigilant.

However, it’s a productive day for artists and anyone working on creative projects.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Minor breakages could occur or small appliances might break down today.

Surprise company might knock on the door. Expect the unex-

inco de Mayo is, officially, a holiday celebrating Mexico’s victory over France in the 1862 Battle of Puebla. In the U.S., where it is actually celebrated with more gusto than in its native country, the holiday has become a celebration of Mexican heritage and culture.

Fresh sweet corn is an essential component of many Mexican dishes and a cultural staple. Luckily, Cinco de Mayo falls right in the middle of Florida’s Sunshine Sweet Corn season, meaning that the sweetest corn, available all year, arrives just in time to be a part of your Cinco de Mayo celebration.

Get the fiesta started with this Fire Roasted Corn and Chorizo Dip and a big bowl of tortilla chips. Crunchy, spicy, sweet and creamy, this addictive dip will have your guests asking for more.

Next, be sure to serve Mexican Style Corn, a truly authentic and delicious Mexican street food. Crunchy ears of fresh sweet corn are charred to perfection then slathered with a mixture of cheese and mayo, sprinkled with chili powder and squirted with lime for simple flavor perfection.

Finally, no Cinco de Mayo celebration is complete without tacos. For a healthful twist on your typical taco, try this recipe for Charred Corn Tacos with Radish Zucchini Slaw that will have both vegetarians and meat eaters clamoring for seconds.

Mexican Style Corn Serves: 4 4 ears fresh Sunshine Sweet Corn, husked 1/4 cup mayonnaise 4 ounces Cotija or feta cheese 1 teaspoon chili powder 4 lime slices Preheat grill or broiler. Grill or broil corn, turning occasionally until hot and some kernels turn golden brown, about 5 minutes.

Using knife, coat each ear of corn with about 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise. Crumble cheese on one side of each corn ear. Sprinkle with chili powder, dividing evenly. Broil until cheese starts to melt, approximately 1 to 2 minutes. Serve with lime.

Fire Roasted Corn and Chorizo Dip Serves: 8 to 12 3 to 4 ears Sunshine Sweet Corn 1 small onion, peeled and sliced into rings 1 small red bell pepper 1 cup cooked chorizo 3 cloves garlic, minced 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened 1/2 pound spicy pepper cheese, like pepper-jack or habanero cheddar 1/4 cup chopped green onions Preheat oven to 400°F and preheat grill to high heat. Remove cornhusks and corn silk, and place fresh Florida Sweet Corn, onion slices and red bell pepper on grill.

Grill corn and bell pepper for 8 to 10 minutes, turning every 2 minutes until all sides are slightly charred. Grill onion slices for approximately 3 minutes per side. When veggies are cool enough to handle, cut corn off cob. Then chop onions and pepper, removing pepper seeds. In 8-by-8-inch baking dish or one-quart souffle dish, mix all ingredients together until well combined. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes until edges are bubbly. Serve warm with tortilla chips.

Charred Corn Tacos with Radish Zucchini Slaw Serves: 4 4 ears Sunshine Sweet Corn Extra virgin olive oil, as needed Salt and freshly ground pepper, as needed 1/2 cup torn cilantro, parsley and mint leaves 1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced 2 1/2 tablespoons fresh lime juice 1 teaspoon maple syrup 1 cup radishes, cut into matchsticks 1 small zucchini, cut into matchsticks 1 jalapeno, seeded and thinly sliced 1/2 cup (2 1/2 ounces) crumbled Cotija or feta cheese 10 to 12 small (6-inch) soft corn tortillas Brush corn with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Over hot grill or open gas stove flame, char ears of corn until well blackened but not completely burnt. Remove from heat; cool. With large knife, shave off kernels into bowl. Add cilantro, parsley and mint; reserve.

In small bowl, combine onion and lime juice; let stand 10 minutes. Stir in maple syrup, radishes, zucchini, jalapeno and 2 tablespoons of oil. Season with salt and pepper; set aside.

Heat your tortillas one of two ways: Wrap whole stack in foil and place in warm 250°F oven for 15 minutes, or coat cast-iron skillet with thin layer of oil and heat over high heat; warm each tortilla 30 seconds to 1 minute each side, until lightly blistered.

To make tacos, fill each tortilla with 1/4 cup corn. Top with cheese and radish-zucchini slaw. Serve with lime wedges, if desired.

When the cake comes out of the oven, immediately but carefully pour onto hot cake. Try to pour as evenly as possible. You might have to pick up the cake and tilt it to spread the glaze evenly. I even poured some out that pooled at the corners and repoured that over the top. Let the cake sit for awhile for the glaze to set. what’s cookin’ in kyp’s kitchen sponsored by:

April wins by the Brewers, one short of the MLB recor set by the Yankees.

National Digest Life ban NEW YORK — NBA Commissioner Adam Silver banned Clippers owner Donald Sterling from the NBA on Tuesday.

The ban comes after audio surfaced this weekend where Sterling is heard making racial remarks towards minorities and players.

“Effective immediately, I’m a banning Mr. Sterling for life from any association with the Clippers organization or the NBA,” Silver said.

“Mr. Sterling may not attend any NBA games or practices,” Silver continued. “He may not be present at any Clippers facility and he may not participate in any business or player personnel decisions involving the team.”

Sterling was also fined $2.5 million — the maximum amount under the NBA constitution. He will also be forced to sell his stake in the Clippers organization.

Panthers primed for Glenwood showdown LC girls sail 10-0

By LARRY PETERSON

CNA sports writer • lpeterson@ crestonnews.com

COUNCIL BLUFFS — On a rain-soaked turf field, Lewis Central girls and Creston boys won soccer shutouts here Tuesday night.

The Lewis Central girls ended a 10-0 victory early in the second half on the mercy rule.

Creston’s boys countered with a 5-0 lead in the first half with the wind at their backs, and outscored the Titans 1-0 in the second half to improve to 9-1 for the season and 3-1 in Hawkeye 10 play. That already matches the win total from last year’s 9-7 campaign.

Lewis Central boys fell to 2-8 overall and 1-3 in the league.

Creston junior Conner Pals scored three goals Tuesday, lifting his season total to 17 — six short of his brother Seth’s school season record of 23. Ben Irr Pals added two assists and a goal.

Irr scored the first one and then Levi Eblen bent a corner kick behind the goalkeeper to make it 2-0. Pals was fouled in the box and converted a Eblen

penalty kick to make it 3-0.

The fourth goal came off an Eblen throw-in that skipped through and touched by Ryan Helm past the goalie for a 4-0 advantage. Pals scored again to send the halftime bulge to 5-0.

Coach Jesus Rodriguez made a strategic change with his team facing the wind in the second half.

“We changed our formation to keep the shutout,” he said. “We put Trevor Frain in front of our center back, as a defensive center mid, to contain number nine, their really good player (senior Tony Rew). Trevor was able to do that.

He (Rew) got off one missile shot a couple steps inside the 18, but Alex Nielsen had cat reflexes and made a dive to block the shot. Alex has good reach and great reflexes to move quickly.”

Creston’s only goal of the second half came when Irr had a free kick outside of the box, The keeper blocked it, but the ball was loose and Pals knocked it in for his third goal of the night to make it 6-0.

Glenwood, in a tie for the ninthplace ranking in Class 2A, recently beat Lewis Central by a similar score (9-0). The Rams are 6-2 overall and 4-0 atop the conference, and host the Panthers Thursday.

Creston, ranked 16th in Class 2A last week, could effectively take a hold on first place in the Hawkeye 10 by handing the Rams their first loss, and owning the head-to-head advantage.

“I can’t wait for Thursday,” Rodriguez said. “We know they are a great team. But we are playing well.

Tonight we were generating quick passes and playing in space to score.

We got adjusted to the turf field during warm-ups. Our defense is playing strong.”

With four players gone at State FFA activities Tuesday, the Panthers were helped by JV members Caleb Cramer, Connor Kinkade, Helm and Isaac Wignall.

The Panthers are off to the best start since the 2010 team led by alltime leading scorer Seth Pals and all-state midfielder Kevin Irr that reached a No. 7 state rating at 8-1 after wins over ranked DenisonSchleswig, Glenwood and ADM. That team finished 10-5 and lost in the substate finals.

Girls match In the girls match, freshman Kelsey McSorley scored five goals for Lewis Central and senior Haley Cleaver added two.

The Class 2A sixth-ranked Titans (7-1) had 27 total shots and 17 on goal. Creston’s only shot was by Shelby Palser. Sadie Jones had 13 saves in sharing duties in the net with Becca Ross.

Lewis Central built a 6-0 halftime lead and scored a flurry of goals early in the second half to end the match on the mercy rule at the 32:10 mark of the second half.

“That’s probably the best team we’ve faced so far, although St. Albert was just as capable,” Creston

coach Kim Lauffer said. “They just played different styles against us.”

Lauffer said the fast field turf surface created a quicker game and exposed some of her team’s shortcomings. Conditions were slick in the rain-soaked environment, creating some problems for the goalkeepers in handling the ball.

The Panther girls (0-6 overall, 0-5 conference) are home Friday against Oakland Riverside, with varsity playing first.

“They had crisp and clean passes, and the pace of the game was faster than what we were used to,” said Lauffer, who was missing starter Savannah Hartman at State FFA functions.

The Wildfire Soccer of Orient.

Buxton, a consensus pick as the top prospect in baseball, hasn’t played an inning because of a strained left wrist and is just beginning his return. Sano, considered one of the top power hitting prospects in the minors, is out for the season because of Tommy John elbow ligament replacement surgery.

The Twins’ plan to group these top prospects together will not materialize this season.

“We were certainly optimistic about it and certainly looking forward to those guys playing together,” said Brad Steil, the Twins director of minor league operations. “We thought it would be a good idea for all those guys to get a chance to play together, which they didn’t get to last year.”

It’s another example of what can happen — and potentially ruin — the path to the majors. Rosario knows that now as he waits for his season to start.

Twins’ Eddie Rosario dealing with his poor decision

By LA VELLE E. NEAL III Star Tribune

FORT MYERS, Fla. — Eddie Rosario leaned against a fence in front of a dugout last week as other Twins minor leaguers went through fielding drills at the Lee County Sports Complex.

He still is rehabilitating a sore elbow. Even if he was 100 percent healthy, though, the highly touted infield prospect still would be at Fort Myers, working out on the back fields. Rosario is idle, paying the price because, he said, “I made a mistake.”

Rosario is in the middle of a 50-game suspension for violating baseball’s drug policy. He confirmed in a conversation Rosario with the Star Tribune late last week that he smoked marijuana during the Arizona Fall League and failed a drug test soon after that. The momentum he had built as he moved up the minor league ladder has skidded to a halt.

“It’s tough,” he said. “I miss baseball bad.”

He won’t be able to join Class AA New Britain until the last week in May — rainouts keep pushing his return date back. Rosario, 22, was ranked as the sixth-best prospect in the organization

by Baseball America and is one of the better-hitting prospects in the minors. He is considered a good contact hitter with the potential to hit for some power — he had 21 homers at rookie league Elizabethton in 2011. He bat-

ted .307 with a .358 on base percentage and .867 on baseplus-slugging percentage in four minor league seasons.

What he is missing out on is at-bats to further his development and move him closer to his major league debut.

Rosario said he is dealing with his poor decision. As soon as the Twins learned of the results, he was entered into the club’s employee assistance program, which provides the necessary counseling and other support to help players and staff who run into problems like Rosario’s.

“We will move past the suspension and get him ready to play so when he is eligible he will be ready to go,” said Rob Antony, Twins assistant general manager. “We don’t expect the elbow to be an issue and should be fine by the time he is ready to play in real games.”

Rosario, a fourth-round pick in the 2010 draft, batted .238 in the Arizona Fall League and .173 in the Puerto Rican winter league.

Part of his struggles, he said, was knowing that he tested positive, with a suspension to come. He didn’t report to spring camp until April 12 — more than three weeks after minor leaguers reported — so he could deal with a personal matter at his home of Guayanna, Puerto Rico.

“It was a mistake,” Rosario said, “but it’s in the past.”

New Britain is 6-16 and in sixth place in the Eastern League’s Eastern Division.

Rosario was scheduled to open the year with the Rock Cats after batting .284 with four homers and 38 RBI in 70 games there in 2013 following a midseason promotion from Class A Fort Myers. Not only that, but top prospects Byron Buxton and Miguel Sano

Greater Regional Diabetes Education program merits ADA continued recognition The Greater Regional Diabetes Education program has been awarded continued recognition from the American Diabetes Association (ADA).

The prestigious award recognizes quality diabetes self-management education programs. The ADA believes the Greater Regional Diabetes Education program offers high-quality education that is an essential component of effective diabetes treatment.

The ADA Education Recognition Certification assures that educational programs meet the National Standards for Diabetes Self-Management Education Programs. Programs apply for recognition voluntarily. Programs that achieve recognition status have a staff of knowledgeable health professionals who can provide participants with comprehensive information about diabetes management.

According to the American Diabetes Association, there are 25.8 million people or 8.5 percent of the population in the United States who have diabetes.

While an estimated 18.8 million have been diagnosed, 7.0 million people are not aware they have the disease. Each day, approximately 5,205 people are diagnosed with diabetes.

plications – heart disease and stroke, kidney disease, blindness and nerve disease and amputation.

Assuring high-quality education for patient selfcare is one of the primary goals of the education recognition program. Through the support of the health care team and increased knowledge and awareness of diabetes, the patient can assume a major part of the responsibility for his/her diabetes management. Unnecessary hospital admissions and some of the acute and chronic complications of diabetes may be prevented through self-management education.
