One of uptown Creston’s staple businesses will undergo a major transition Oct. 1.

New managers Rick and Tara Hanson will take ownership of Adams Street Espresso & Soda Shoppe Sunday and reopen 6:30 a.m. Wednesday.

“I remember sitting here

as a kid,” Rick said about the stools near the soda fountain. “We have always talked about running our own business and when this came open, I thought it would be a neat place.”

The previous manager Stacey Ray and her family made the decision to look into selling the business in April.

“The reason we decided to put it up for sale was because Josh, my husband, has lots of opportunities to grow with the business he works with,” Ray said. “It could be a possibility that we would move, so we determined between the two of us that it would be Please see ADAMS STREET, Page 2

Rick and Tara Hanson said they were attracted to the business because of the character and history of the building. Tara has worked in the food industry for more than 25 years.

First-degree murder charges were dropped against Cindy Lou Malson, 47, of Bedford, and charges still remain against Zachary J. Curtis Malson, 24, of Bedford for the death of Steven C. Malson, 56.

Cindy and Zachary Malson, Steven Malson’s wife and son, were originally charged with first-degree murder April 23 after an investigation by Taylor County Sheriff’s Office into Steven Malson’s death.

Charges against Cindy were dropped Aug. 8 for furtherance of justice without prejudice.

“The reason on the dismissal of Cindy, her charge was dismissed in the furtherance of justice without prejudice, and the significance of that is it could be refiled at a later Z. Malson time,” said Clint Spurrier, attorney for Ringgold and Taylor counties.

“Even though her case is dismissed, it isn’t a certainty it’s done for good. But I’m not telling you it will be refiled.”

According to a Taylor County Sheriff report, Taylor County Sheriff received a 911 call April 23 C. Malson indicating a shooting had occurred at 1509 Bent St., Bedford, as the result of an attempted suicide. The victim, Steven Malson, suffering from what appeared to be a single gunshot wound to the head, was flown to a hospital in St. Joseph, Mo., where he died.

Court documents state Cindy provided information putting her in the room with Steven and their son Zachary, all fighting over a gun. She provided information to investigators stating Zachary was responsible for intentionally firing the fatal shot. Another family member said she was present when Zachary

Dorothy and Joe later owned and operated a bar in Afton for a short time before moving to Des Moines in 1968. While in Des Moines, Dorothy worked for EMCO for 13 years.

In 1981 Dorothy returned to farm south of Arispe along highway 169 for ten years before moving to Creston in 1991.

Dorothy is survived by

two sons, Pete (wife Marge) Repplinger of Creston and Gary (wife Jo) Repplinger of Des Moines; three daughters, Shirley (husband Lowell) Hagle of Creston, Karen (husband Ted) Jones of Shannon City and Virginia (husband Dick) Bishop of Des Moines; 13 grandchildren, Brenda (husband Pat) Osburne of Castlerock, Colo., Steven Repplinger of Michellville, Brooke (husband Mike) McKinney of Elkhart, Jeff Hagle of Kansas City, Mo., Jared Hagle, Jason (wife Lisa) Hagle all of Creston, Monica Wimber, Chris Repplinger , Scott Kilmer, all of Des Moines, Tami (husband Greg) Carlson of Corning, Tracie (husband Ed) Cook of Shannon City, Kathy Cooper, Melissa Bishop of Des Moines and Jody (husband Patrick) White of West Des Moines; 37 great-grandchildren, Jordon and Dakota Osborn, Luke and Levi McKinney, Christal, Joe, Ciara, Cody, Kayla, Hannah, Chloe, Gracie and Sophie Hagle, Serina, Christopher Jr., Aleena, Emma Lu and Justin Repplinger, Alysia Wimber, Taylor, Haley and Payton Bramman, Logan and Ryan Carlson, Emma and Zoie Cook, Palmer Hayes, Christian White, Ava and Alex White, Michael, Michelle, Kassadie and Kourtnie Cooper, Patrick, Emily and Amber Kilmer and three great-great-grandchildren, Aiden Craig, Rylie and Jemma Hysel and a sisterin-law Mildred Sullivan of Afton.

TRIAL: Continued from Page 1

confessed to the shooting later that evening. Zachary has changed his story multiple times as to what happened.

Court documents also state during an interview with Zachary, he provided information stating Cindy was responsible for intentionally shooting the fatal shot. Cindy has also changed her story, each time not matching evidence at the scene.

“The case against Cindy Malson was based primarily on statements made by her

son Zachary Malson,” Spurrier said. “Part of the reason for the dismissal is to allow for additional investigation.

So, at this point in time, the charge against Zachary Malson is set for trial on Nov. 3.”

A pretrial conference is scheduled for 10 a.m. Oct. 7.

During the conference, the trial date will be discussed, and motions that are filed will be addressed. This can push a trial date to a later time if the motions need to be reviewed.

Zachary was being held in Taylor County Jail on $1 million bond.

more difficult if we had this business tying us down.”

Tara has been in the food industry for more than 25 years. She was attracted to the character and history of the building. She said they plan to run the business as a family.

“It was a difficult decision but one that I had a lot of support from family,” Ray said. “We kept it quiet not knowing what would

Rick and Tara have been training with Ray the last couple weeks to help ease the transition.

“I have been around food, but not specifically coffee,” Tara said. “The espresso machine was hard to get used to at first. It really is an art, making coffee.”

Background It was family heartache and a stroke of misfortune that directed Ray to open and run a new coffee shop in uptown Creston with her mother Mindy Dresback.

Her grandmother passed away in Feb. 2010. That November, in the first round of budget cuts, Ray lost a job she planned to stay at until retirement at the Union County Clerk of Court office.

“I had never drank a cup of coffee before I opened up this place,” Ray said.

“I wanted to do this for her (grandmother), so we jumped. I hope my family is proud of what this has

become because my heart and soul is in here.”

The building was built in 1883 as a staple to Adams Street’s storefront fixtures.

It served as a pharmacy and pit stop for those in need of a refreshing fountain drink.

Rexall Drug and Brennan Drug switched sites in 1923. It changed hands two more times before Hanson Drug Owner Tony Cass ran the store from 1994 to 2006.

While Ray’s mission with Adams Street Espresso & Soda Shoppe was to create an outlet for family-friendly social gatherings, she never expected some of the guests that walked through the door.

“I think the most unexpected events that occurred here was a drop in by Zac Brown Band or having four presidential candidates in one week,” Ray said.

“Never did I fathom that would even happen.”

Future plans Both Tara and Rick said customers can expect busi-

Grant Wood sketchbook returns to Iowa museum DAVENPORT (AP) — A rare Grant Wood sketchbook from 1929 is back in Davenport after it went missing from a museum about 50 years ago, the museum said.

The 100-page sketchbook signed by Wood, the painter of “American Gothic,” is again in the Figge Art Museum’s possession, collections and exhibitions manager Andrew Wallace said Thursday.

The small book of drawings for the 24-foot, stained-glass window in Cedar Rapid’s Veterans Memorial Building was likely stolen during an open house in 1966 at what was then the Davenport Museum of Art, Wallace told the Rock Island Argus.

The Figge Art Museum houses more than 240 pieces of Wood’s art and belongings. It didn’t discover the book was missing until 1979.

Wallace declined to say whether Figge paid to get the book back. The museum had the item withdrawn from a Chicago auction in 2013, where it was expected to sell for $40,000 to $60,000.

The Kennedy Galleries in New York City bought the book in 1966 from a person from Maquoketa, Iowa, before selling it in 1975 for $500 to its last owner. Wallace declined to identify the person.

The book’s pages will be digitized and posted on the museum website.

ness as usual Wednesday morning.

“We are not intending on changing anything right now,” Tara said. “We are going to keep it as is and really get good at that. I don’t believe in doing anything mediocre.”

Tara added in the future she wants to look into broadening the menu with her experience in food services. Another possibility is opening on Friday nights for food.

“I promised the new owners that I would be here for them and I volunteered myself to work the social art canvases so I know they will continue,” Ray said. “I just want to help them not have to reinvent the wheel, but still make it their own ... I want to help them be successful.”

Ray said she has always been very humbled by the community support and will miss the daily interaction with the customers.

“There is a sign back there I would like to take with me but I won’t because it belongs here,” Ray said. “It says, ‘If these walls could talk,’ and that says it all. There is a story or laughter or even stories from the 1960s that I hear on a daily basis. I’ve started a journal and that is what I am taking with me because it has a place in my heart.”

Real Estate Report MULTIPLE LISTING SERVICE (MLS)

Definition: A Multiple Listing Service, or MLS, is a marketing database set up by a group of cooperating real estate brokers. Its purpose is to provide accurate and structured data about properties for sale. It also is a mechanism for listing brokers to offer compensation to buyer brokers who bring a buyer for their listed property.

Each MLS has its own rules and procedures. If the members are all REALTORS®, then the rules are patterned on regulations published by the National Association of Realtors®. By using rigid data criteria and providing rules for the offer of compensation to other brokers, the MLS has been the primary vehicle for the vast majority of real estate transactions over the years.

At R Realty, this means we have the ability to show most properties, even those which have another agency’s sign on them. You do not have to call the name on the sign. Call the agent of your choice. We can show properties outside of Union County.

LEE HIEB, M.D. for IOWA GOVERNOR Libertarian Party

2014

“Don’t waste your vote on more of the same -- take back Liberty”

Our liberties we prize and our rights we will maintain.

How is Your Liberty Today, Iowa?

Have the “Republicrats” Made Your Life Better?

Overregulation and High Taxation are sucking out the life blood of our productive citizens. We Iowans are bottom half on the freedom scale and in the top 15 states for taxation.

Government Growth has occured through every administration in the last 60 years, and when government grows, it steals the wealth from the people as the private sector shrinks.

My platform is simple:

If not NOW, WHEN? In a recent Gallup poll 65% of Americans say BOTH the Democrat and Republican Parties are doing such a poor job of representing the American people that they are dissatisfied with the effectiveness of the government.

Reduce government and reduce rules by unelected boards. Push back federal encroachment on the state, employ constitutional rule of law to restore: Economic Liberty, Personal Liberty, Religious Freedom, Educational Freedom, Property Rights, Restoration of Privacy

It’s time to be more attached to your LIBERTY than to your political party.

Please help us by doing these three things: 1. Join us on our E-Campaign by following us on Facebook and Twitter. 2. Please consider joining our 10,000 x $20 Club. We are looking for 10,000 Iowans who care enough about their LIBERTY to donate just $20.

3. Consider hosting a fundraiser/meet & greet.

Peanut butter tames tar on car Dear Heloise: Do you have a remedy to REMOVE ROAD TAR that has been splashed on a car? I prefer a home remedy, if possible.

They usually work the best and have a good price. — Barbara, via email Yes, I do have a great simple home remedy! All you need to remove the tar splatters is a jar of peanut butter, but NOT crunchy! Rub a glob of peanut butter on the spot and wipe with an old towel. It’s the oil in the peanut butter that helps remove all tar. — Heloise SEND A GREAT HINT TO: Heloise P.O. Box 795000 San Antonio, TX 782795000 Fax: 1-210-HELOISE Email: Heloise@Heloise. com LATCH SYSTEM Dear Heloise: Several weeks ago, you gave some good advice about using the LATCH system in a vehicle to secure a car seat. What you didn’t mention and what isn’t well known is that there is a weight limit for using the LATCH system.

Some parents continue to use the LATCH system well past the time when they should be using a seatbelt to secure the

Hints from Heloise car seat. The weight limit differs from vehicle to vehicle and is the combined weight of the child and seat. — Gordon W. in Houston How right you are! It’s not necessarily the age of the child, but the weight and height. Some toddlers may weigh more than the weight restriction, and we all know how fast the little ones grow!

Take a look today at the car seat to see what the instructions are. You might save a child’s life or prevent serious injury. — Heloise SAFETY IN THE SHOWER Dear Heloise: Recently, I had grab bars installed in my walk-in shower, which I really like to use. When visiting my daughter, I take a plastic grab bar with suction cups and place it on the shower wall.

This works well and makes it safer for me. — Baynes H., San Angelo, Texas Good hint, but please be sure that the grab bar is real-

The chairs were still good, and we didn’t want to spend a ton of money on a new set. We went to a charitable-organization resale shop and found a table that worked with our chairs for very little money.

We saved money and helped other people! It was a great deal. — Paula in Texas STICKY NOTE FOR SEWING Dear Heloise: I keep a yellow sticky note on my sewing machine.

Horoscope Saturday, Sept. 27, 2014 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) This is a lovely day to schmooze and do something different. Talk to people from different backgrounds. Go someplace you’ve never been before. Put a little variety into your life!

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) You might come out smelling like a rose if you decide to share something with someone today. It looks like things are going in your favor. (This is a good day to discuss how to deal with an inheritance.)

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Conversations with partners and close friends will be upbeat and pleasant today.

Nevertheless, someone wants to get right down to the nitty-gritty. This person wants the straight skinny!

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) You will enjoy your job today, and you might encounter work-related travel as well.

People from different backgrounds will intrigue you and perhaps have excellent advice for you.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) A playful day! Enjoy sports events, the entertainment world, show business, the hospitality industry and playful activities with children. Kick up your heels and have fun!

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Family gatherings will be positive today, and a conversation with a female family member in particular could help you (perhaps literally, with money or direct gifts).

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Your relations with others are warm today, and you likely will attract happy, positive people to you. That’s because you’re in a positive frame of mind!

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Business and commerce are blessed today. Look for ways to get a better job or boost your income. You may get good advice from a female associate.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Today you have a strong concern for the general welfare of others beyond your immediate circle. If you can help someone, you will reach out to him or her.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) It’s easy to put the interests of others before your own today, because you feel

genuinely concerned. In the long run, this will benefit you, because what goes around, comes around.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) A conversation with a female friend will be upbeat and pleasurable today. Share your hopes and dreams for the future with this person because her feedback will help you.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) People in authority are impressed by you today. You appear to know what you’re talking about, and they are will-

ing to listen.

YOU BORN TODAY You quest for perfection, which makes you expect a lot from yourself and others. You are versatile and enjoy many kinds of work. Go slowly this year.

There is something important to learn. The first half of this year will seem slow, but soon your efforts of the past six years will start to show results.

Get out into nature this year.

USDA details new risk-based farm payment programs DES MOINES (AP) — Farmers can start as early as next week on signing up for new safety net programs that U.S. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack said r e p l a c - Vilsack es the much-criticized direct payments with government payouts based on the risks farmers face.

Vilsack traveled to St. Paul, Minnesota, to hold a news conference to announce the rollout of the programs on Thursday. He held a conference call with reporters to further discuss the programs and answer questions. The programs were established in the

2014 farm bill and will allow farmers to protect themselves against commodity price drops and from lower revenue in poor crop years.

Payouts this year could be significant since anticipated record corn and soybean harvests have sent prices plummeting. At current prices many farmers are likely to lose money, a scenario that will enable them to collect government payments.

The new programs cover this year’s harvested crop.

Farmers will receive payment in October 2015. The programs are in addition to crop insurance farmers may buy to cover losses from flooding, drought, hail and other natural disasters.

Vilsack said without the programs, the risk of farming could be so great that

“We have for years tried to move toward a more market-oriented program and it has arrived, so we’ll understand and embrace whatever suits our particular farms and we’ll go from there.”

— Wayne Humphries

Southeast Iowa farmer

many farmers would quit.

“We want to encourage people to stay in the business of farming,” Vilsack said. “I think, frankly, this system is much more risk-based and much more of a partnership between the government and producers than the direct payment program was, where basically the government was paying regardless of whether prices were good

or not.”

Vilsack said farmers can sign up as soon as Sept. 29 but he expects they will take several months to research their options, talk with advisers and use online calculators to determine their best choices. He said no firm deadline has been set but farmers will likely be given until early next year to make enrollment decisions.

Sheriff: Iowa mom let abusive boyfriend back home Joshua Steinbronn was arrested after locking five children in a bedroom for longer than 24 hours ■

IOWA CITY (AP) — An Iowa mother was arrested after allowing her boyfriend back in the home where investigators say he locked her five children in a bedroom for 24 hours at a time, a sheriff said Thursday.

Joshua Steinbronn returned to the Westgate home he shares with Jonya Smith and her five children this week in violation of a no-contact order, Fayette County Sheriff Marty Fisher said.

Steinbronn, 28, hid in a crawl space when social workers and deputies came

to check on the children and investigate tips that he was there in recent days, he said. After discovering the hiding spot, deputies arrested Steinbronn and Smith on Wednesday afternoon. Two other roommates were arrested on drug paraphernalia charges.

The Iowa Department of Human Services has removed the children — ranging in ages from 3 to 9 — from the home after previously allowing them to stay with Smith under its monitoring, Fisher said.

DHS has refused to explain how it’s handled the case, noting child abuse investigations are confidential.

A judge ordered Steinbronn to have no contact with the children Saturday, when he was allowed to leave jail on an unsecured bond on child endangerment and false imprison-

ment charges.

Deputies had arrested Steinbronn after they said they found the children crying and begging for help inside a locked bedroom. The children told deputies that Steinbronn locked them up without food or a bathroom on several occasions,

sometimes for longer than 24 hours. One girl reported that she injured her leg while trying to escape.

Fisher said deputies didn’t have enough evidence to charge Smith then but that changed when they learned she allowed Steinbronn to return.

Farm owners must first make some decisions about establishing the number of acres and yield history they’ll submit to the USDA to be used to compute coverage through 2018. Next, producers of major row crops — mostly corn, soybeans, wheat and rice — must decide between a price loss coverage program that pays when commodity prices drop below specified levels and an agriculture risk coverage program that pays when their revenue falls below certain levels.

The farm bill, signed into law in February, provided $6 million for setting up local meetings, designing online tools and creating educational materials to help farmers choose which safety net program would be best.

Wayne Humphries, who

grows corn and soybeans and raises hogs on about 1,000 acres in southeast Iowa, said the new programs are complex and will take some work to understand.

“I think the farm programs are going to be adequate,” he said. “We have for years tried to move toward a more market-oriented program and it has arrived, so we’ll understand and embrace whatever suits our particular farms and we’ll go from there.”

Third party governor candidate hopes to raise awareness political watch dog for the Iowa people.

“It is not just about talking about problems and solutions,” Narcisse said. “With two percent of the vote, we create a new, unique hybrid political party in Iowa. One that can focus on school boards and city councils and counties and spending.”

One of the issues he hopes to bring attention to is the retention of Iowa’s young professionals and assisting them with the high cost of a college education.

“As a state and as communities, we invest 13 years in the education of a young person and get no return,” Narcisse said.

“If you give us a year for every year we pay for plus 40 hours of community service, you can go to Iowa, UNI or Iowa State for free ... that will help us keep a huge percentage of our young people in the state.”

Narcisse visited Creston during his southwest Iowa tour Wednesday, starting the day in Greenfield and continuing to Osceola after touring the town.

His other points of emphasis on the trip were eliminating taxes that discouraged building in the cities and encouraged urban sprawl across rural Iowa, state regulation and

Third party candidate Jonathan Narcisse knows unless one of his supporters wins the lottery before the Narcisse November elections, he will have a tough time beating incumbent Gov. Terry Branstad and Democrat challenger Jack Hatch.

“I’m not holding my breath,” Narcisse said.

Narcisse served on the Des Moines school board from 2007 to 2009 and ran for governor in 2010 as an independent. He tried to declare his candidacy as a democrat early in the race, but was disqualified after the Secretary of State’s Office determined some of his nominating petitions were invalid.

Born in raised in Iowa, Narcisse said he “loves the fair, wrestling and misses six on six girls basketball.”

He has two adopted girls and is the editor and publisher of a small group of community newspapers.

Narcisse hopes the Iowa Party will use his campaign to build a foundation as a

legalization of medical and recreational marijuana and encouraging personal responsibility for those in power positions and every day Iowans.

“Jan. 3, 1993, Iowans woke up to Terry Branstad as Governor, Tom Harkin and Chuck Grassley as our U.S. Senators and Jack Hatch in the Iowa Legislator,” Narcisse said. “On Jan. 3, 2013, exactly 20 years later, we went to bed with Terry Branstad as our Governor, Tom Harkin and Chuck Grassley as our senators and Jack Hatch in the legislature ... that represents a devastating stagnation.”

Holder resigns as attorney general WASHINGTON (AP) — Eric Holder, who served as the public face of the Obama administration’s legal fight against terrorism and weighed in on issues of racial fairness, is resigning after six years on the job.

He is the nation’s first black attorney general.

The White House said that President Barack Obama would announce Holder’s departure later Thursday and that Holder planned to remain at the Justice Department until his successor was in place.

White House officials said Obama had not made a final decision on a replacement for Holder, who was one of the most progressive voices in his Cabinet.

Advisers to Obama and Holder said the attorney

general had been planning his departure with the president for some time.

Some possible candidates who have been discussed among administration officials include Solicitor General Don Verrilli, California Attorney General Kamala Harris, Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick, Deputy U.S. Attorney General James Cole and Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, a former Rhode Island attorney general.

Holder, a 63-year-old former judge and prosecutor, took office in early 2009 as the U.S. government grappled with the worst financial crisis in decades and with divisive questions on the handling of captured terrorism suspects, issues that helped shape his tenure

as the country’s top law enforcement official. He is the fourth-longest serving attorney general in U.S. history.

He also took on questions of racial fairness, working to improve police relations with minorities, enforce civil rights laws and remove disparities in sentencing.

A former deputy attorney general in the Clinton administration, Holder was pulled away from private practice to reshape a Justice Department that had been tarnished by a scandal involving fired U.S. attorneys and that had authorized harsh interrogation methods for terrorism suspects.

Under his watch, the Justice Department cracked down on news media reporting on national security matters.

Passion for football fuels Tamerius’ comeback

NATIONAL DIGEST

Giants roll LANDOVER, Md. — New York Giants tight end Larry Donnell has become Eli Manning’s top receiver, the perfect target in the team’s new dink-and-dunk offense.

The second-year player who went undrafted out of Grambling State caught three scoring passes in the first half — similar twist-the-body grabs in the end zone of 5, 6 and 6 yards — in a 45-14 victory over the turnover-prone Washington Redskins on Thursday night.

After struggling in his first two games running new offensive coordinator Ben McAdoo’s West Coast playbook, Manning has led the Giants (2-2) to consecutive victories. Manning is supposed to complete 70 percent of his passes in this offense, and he surpassed that mark against the Redskins, going 28 for 39 — including three simple open-field drops — for 300 yards with four touchdowns and one interception.

Fitting farewell NEW YORK — The perfect script.

Derek Jeter capped his Yankee Stadium farewell with a game-winning single in the bottom of the ninth inning, the latest - and perhaps last - storybook moment of his charmed and illustrious career, to give New York a 6-5 victory Thursday night over the Baltimore Orioles.

Serenaded with adoring chants that echoed through the Bronx night, Jeter tipped his cap several times and drove in three runs. He launched an early RBI double off the left-center wall and saved the best for last, a sharp, opposite-field single to right that knocked in the winner.

During the raucous celebration that followed, Jeter said he’s made his final appearance at shortstop, but he’ll likely play in some capacity this weekend at Boston.

“Football is my everything,” Creston/Orient-Macksburg senior Alex Tamerius said. “I love football. I just always had it in my head that I had to play football, had to get back to playing football.”

Tamerius’ passion for football fueled his comeback from major knee surgery, not just once, but twice.

Now, the Panther senior is back to flying around the football field making plays for the Creston/O-M defense from his linebacker position.

His return to the field, and to full health, has been a long time coming, and has included a rigorous rehab schedule.

After finishing fourth on the team in tackles as a sophomore during the 2011 season, Creston/O-M head coach Brian Morrison had high hopes for Tamerius entering his junior season.

“We knew the way he played as a sophomore, he was going to have an exciting junior year,” Morrison said. “It wasn’t the case because he had the injury, but he has not taken a step back at all.”

Tamerius recorded 37.5 total tackles as a starting linebacker for the Panthers in 2012, and also intercepted two passes.

During the spring of 2013, Tamerius was a dual-sport athlete, competing in track and field and soccer.

Creston/O-M senior linebacker Alex Tamerius (40) listens to head coach Brian Morrison during a timeout in Creston/O-M’s loss to Clarinda earlier this season. After going through two major knee surgeries, Tamerius has worked his way back to the Panther starting lineup for his senior season.

soccer game of the season on April 1, 2013, Tamerius dribbled the ball upfield and made a quick cut to avoid an opposing player charging at him.

Instantly, he knew something was wrong with his right knee.

“I could hear it just snap instantly,” Tamerius said.

“I knew it wasn’t good. I’d n e v e r been injured before, but I could tell from Tamerius the pain and the

sounds it was making that it was pretty bad.”

Quick recovery Tamerius had torn his meniscus, his medial collateral ligament (MCL) and his anterior collateral ligament (ACL).

He underwent major knee surgery to repair his meniscus and his torn ACL. The surgery required removing his ACL and drilling holes in both his femur and tibia. Doctors then took a graft of his hamstring and attached it into the holes drilled into his leg bones, creating a new ACL for Tamerius.

“That’s why it takes so long to recover, because

it’s like tearing your hamstring and like breaking your femur and your tibia,” Tamerius said. “You have to give time to have your new ACL get blood flow and strengthen.”

What followed was a long, arduous recovery process that included physical therapy and rehab.

Typically, that process takes at least six months.

“It’s a pretty long process, pretty tough process,” Tamerius said. “Most people, they go to their physical therapist three times a week. I knew I wanted to get back to football. I tried to do a fast recovery.

That’s all I thought about

doing my rehab, was playing football.”

Tamerius ditched his crutches just days after his surgery and began running about four weeks after surgery. He started a rigorous physical therapy plan that saw him doing PT exercises twice a day.

He passed his doctor’s evaluation looking for muscle mass in his leg, reduced swelling and flexion in his knee, and found himself back on the football field just four months after surgery.

“You don’t usually see guys coming back in four months f r o m A C L tears, especially in football,” Leonard C r e s ton High School athletic trainer Chris Leonard said.

“You might in a sport like track, where you run straight ahead. But in multi-directional sports, you don’t usually come back in four months. Most people like to see at least six, maybe even more if they can.”

Tamerius returned just in time for Creston/O-M’s 2013 homecoming game on Sept. 27 against Perry.

Just a few plays into the game, Tamerius chased Perry quarterback Will Whiton, tackling him along the sideline.

Downey’s kick still ranks Spartans take title at Simpson shooting Invite 6th in Iowa history

By LARRY PETERSON CNA sports writer • lpeterson@crestonnews.com

Only 31 field goals in the history of Iowa high school football have been kicked from a longer distance than the 52-yarder by Creston/O-M senior Conner Pals Friday at Greene County (Jefferson).

Among the all-time state leaders is a 56-yard field goal kicked by Creston’s Kevin Downey against Greenfield on Sept. 5, 1975.

Pals’ kick is tied with several others at 52 yards, including former Iowa State kicker Bret Culbertson for Des Moines Lincoln in 2003

against Fort Dodge.

Another long kicker in Creston history was John Blazek in the early 1970s, son of Panther coach Jack Blazek. Blazek hit a 47-yarder in 1972, which like Downey’s, stood as a state record at the time.

Downey’s record was broken in 1982 by Mike Kennon of Stanton, who kicked a 62-yarder against Nishna Valley.

The current record is a 63-yarder by former Miami Hurricanes kicker Todd Sievers for Ankeny against Fort Dodge in 1997.

UCLA sails TEMPE, Ariz. — Ishmael Adams returned a kickoff 100 yards for a touchdown and an interception 95 yards for another score, sparking No. 11 UCLA’s 62-27 trouncing of No. 15 Arizona State on Thursday night.

UCLA (4-0, 1-0 Pac12) won its first three games by a combined 18 points against nonranked opponents.

The Bruins turned a matchup of the past two Pac-12 South champions into a rout, scoring 28 points during a 7-minute span of the second and third quarters.

Brett Hundley returned from a left arm injury to throw for 355 yards and four TDs.

Second row, Matt Mitchell, Justin Woods, Heath Evans, Ethan Jolliff, Jordan Brand, Easton Ressler, Brandon Dvorsky and Jonathan Cox. Back row, head coach Charlie Mundy, Katie Fuller, Cami Feehan, Shelby Woods and assistant coach Cody Mundy.

The Southwestern Community College sports shooting team came home with a whole lot of hardware, including the overall team trophy and a number of individual trophies, from the Simpson Storm Invitational Saturday at the Big Springs Shooting Complex in Searsboro.

Other college teams competing included Midland University from Fremont (Neb.), Simpson College, and the University of Iowa.

The SWCC team took home the championship trophy for high team average. To win high team average, all 15 of SWCC’s athletes had to shoot a higher average than the entire field of athletes.

Individual winners

for the day from SWCC included Ethan Jolliff, sophom o r e f r o m Indianola, who t o o k h o m e the trophy for Jolliff skeet, shooting a 23-25 and Shelby Woods, freshman from Madison, Mo., who took home the trophy for trap, shooting 50-50 and winning a shoot-off against an athlete from Midland.

SWCC’s blue squad, comprised of Jolliff; Woods; Ben Fox, sophomore from Newton; Trenton Cheers, sophomore from Indianola; and Easton Ressler, freshman

from Solon, took home the trophy for highest squad score overall.

Charlie Mundy, SWCC head sports shooting coach, was proud of how the team finished during its first outing for the season.

“This is huge,” Mundy said. “Last year, Midland won this tournament with more than 80 targets.

We finished third … so we have improved tremendously. I can’t wait for this coming weekend when we start conference play at NIACC )North Iowa Area Community College).”

Mundy said he is also looking forward to seeing how his team sizes up in the new Iowa Collegiate Shooting Conference.

“I knew right away, knowing how it had felt the past four months, and feeling how it felt when it was weak,” he said. “Right when I stood up and walked off, you could feel that there was something missing.”

After working so hard for four months just to get back onto the football field, Tamerius suddenly found himself back at square one.

“To have it happen his first game back was pretty disappointing for himself,” Morrison said. “For the staff and his teammates, it was pretty hard to swallow. The next day, just by his demeanor, you could tell Morrison he wasn’t feeling sorry for himself. He got back to work and went through the process and had a great summer.”

Tamerius underwent surgery again and returned to athletic competition during the spring for track season. He received permission to run track, but

That came over the summer, and Tamerius began lifting weights and resuming football activities.

He’s since reclaimed his spot as starting linebacker for the Panthers and currently ranks fourth on the team with 20.5 tackles.

“It really means a lot to his teammates, the senior class, to have him out there with his leadership skills and abilities,” Morrison said. “My mindset, the first couple of weeks was ease him into it. But just the way he plays, you can’t ease him into anything, because he plays so hard. He picked up right where he left off.”

While he doesn’t yet know where he wants to go, one thing is certain for Tamerius — his experiences with his injuries has made him interested in going into physical therapy.

“I really think that has come from the last two years of my injuries,” he said. “I think most people that go into physical therapy have a story of being hurt and having to go through physical therapy, then find they like doing all that stuff. I really find myself, one of the best things I do is recover from injuries. I’d like to pass that on to other people.”

Struggling for breath:

Why people with COPD may be putting themselves at unnecessary risk (BPT) — Imagine experiencing shortness of breath, wheezing, and a cough so severe it requires you to visit the emergency room. This is a frightening potential reality for an estimated 24 million Americans with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a progressive and debilitating lung disease that makes it difficult to breathe. Many COPD patients will experience an event like this called an exacerbation (or flare-up), a time when symptoms suddenly get worse and breathing becomes more difficult.

COPD exacerbations can be triggered by infections, changes in the weather, air pollution, or second-hand smoke, and they’re a leading cause of hospitalization in

the US. Therefore, it’s critical for COPD patients and their doctors to have a productive dialogue on how to manage, treat, and prepare for these potential flare-ups.

However, findings from the new, groundbreaking, two-part national COPE (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Experience) Survey released by The COPD Foundation show that people with COPD may need more education and better communication with their doctors to effectively manage the condition. In fact, despite the serious risks posed by exacerbations, the COPE Survey revealed that nearly two-thirds (62 percent) of COPD patients admitted to not knowing a lot about them - and an

additional 16 percent were unaware of what a flare-up even was.

Moreover, 60 percent of COPD patients reported that they do not have an action plan in place to deal with a flare-up. By contrast, in the part of the COPE Survey targeting physicians who treat COPD, almost all said they discuss exacerbations and establish action plans with their patients, suggesting there is an opportunity to improve patient care through more productive, meaningful communication between patients and their physicians about COPD to improve patient care.

Early detection and proper diagnosis of COPD are also critical to managing the disease and slowing its

progression, yet surveyed COPD patients indicated that they experienced symptoms of the disease for an average of 2 years and 9 months prior to being diagnosed. Furthermore, surveyed physicians reported that 39 percent of their patients had reached a “severe” or “very severe” disease state by the time of diagnosis - results which indicate there may be an opportunity for earlier detection and intervention.

Despite the importance of proper diagnosis of COPD severity, less than half (49 percent) of physicians surveyed reported that they always perform spirometry - a diagnostic tool that measures lung function - to confirm a diagnosis.

The survey also revealed that only 12 percent of COPD patients consider their condition to be “completely controlled” and indicated that COPD disrupts their patients’ ability to complete normal daily activities such as exercising (87 percent), climbing stairs (86 percent), and walking (77 percent). Yet surprisingly, 82 percent of patients who have a COPD treatment regimen said they are satisfied with it.

“COPD can be treated but it’s crucial for doctors to diagnose it early and help patients follow the appropriate therapeutic strategies to improve symptoms, increase activity, and reduce the chance of exacerbations,” says Dr. MeiLan Han, asso-

ciate professor of medicine in the Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care at the University of Michigan.

“It’s important that physicians develop an individualized approach that works best for each patient.”

The surveys were conducted by The COPD Foundation with support from Forest Laboratories, Inc., as part of Forest’s MORE Matters education campaign. The initiative aims to provide people living with COPD and their caregivers what they want more of: education about the condition, helpful resources, and the support needed to help them manage the disease.

of your life.

There’s growing evidence that the compound may trigger developmental and reproductive problems in humans. One study found that 100 percent of pregnant women tested had triclosan in their blood, and many had it in umbilical-cord samples, meaning the fetus had it too. Triclosan does clear from the body pretty quickly, but most folks are continually exposed. Want to know what contains triclosan and triclocarban?

Check www.beyondpesticides.org.

You still can slash your risk for colds, flu and gastric distress; just use soap, environmentally friendly cleansers and a touch of alcohol-based hand sanitizer when those things aren’t available. Wash your hands frequently, and keep your immune system in germ-fighting shape: Get seven to eight hours of sleep nightly; get a blood test to check your vitamin D-2 level (it should be over 35); take half a men’s over50 multivitamin (gals too!) morning and night; and daily eat nine servings of fruits and veggies, get 30 minutes of physical activity and work up to walking 10,000 steps. No excuses!

THE TRUTH ABOUT HANGOVERS Ancient Assyrians downed a mixture of ground bird beak and myrrh. And P.G. Wodehouse’s Jeeves (in “Jeeves Takes Charge”) served up a concoction of Worcestershire sauce, raw egg and red pepper. Those remedies may sound pretty awful, but when you have a hangover, you want something to ease the nausea and headache.

Those symptoms hit when your blood alcohol

level falls to near zero and all you’re left with are the acute aftereffects of excess alcohol: It’s associated with falling blood sugar levels, dilated blood vessels and body-wide inflammation.

Plus, alcohol dehydrates you by upping urine production, and it irritates your stomach lining.

A new survey reveals that a lot of you have missed work because of a hangover.

Results range from a low of 11 percent of Alaskans to the high of 30 percent of locals in D.C. (Should Congress drink less or miss work more?) But drinking hangover-safe, moderate amounts of wine, beer or liquor reduces all arterial aging, including heart disease.

So, it’s one glass of wine or the equivalent a day for gals and two for guys. (Although studies show that any alcohol increases the risk for breast cancer.) Or enjoy peanuts, blueberries and cranberries; they contain the same heart-protecting polyphenols as red wine.

As for easing that hangover? Drink plenty of water, eat some protein, sleep, stay on your aspirin if you’re taking a daily dose — and don’t overdo it next time. We find no solid evidence that anything other than these time-tested remedies shorten or reduce the pain of a hangover.

Taming ‘roid rage There’s nothing pretty about hemorrhoids, but they’ve afflicted the world’s most beautiful women (Marilyn Monroe and Elizabeth Taylor) and most dashing men (Ernest Hemingway and, it’s rumored, George Clooney). In fact, by age 50, half of all men and women develop them.

But what are they, exactly?

A hemorrhoid is an inflamed vein in the lower part of your intestine, the rectum, or around your anus. Some never announce themselves; others trigger pain, itching and bright-red bleeding. Occasionally rectal ‘roids protrude out of the anus.

Pregnancy and obesity can trigger hemorrhoids because of added weight pressing against veins in the lower intestines. Age can weaken intestinal membranes and tissue, allowing veins to bulge and bleed.

But for many folks, they’re a result of a fiber-deficient diet, low water intake, inactivity, chronic constipation (or diarrhea) and straining while going to the bathroom.

Treatments include bulk stool softeners (psyllium or methylcellulose). Take a little at the start of every meal. You can use over-thecounter creams and suppositories and soak in a warm tub. Also, your doc may select from various treatments that shrink or KO a swollen vein. Sometimes surgery is required, and the latest, radically improved techniques make it a lot less painful than it used to be.

The best solution? Prevention. You can do that by maintaining a healthy weight; eating only grains that are 100 percent whole; and every day enjoying nine servings of fruits and

veggies, drinking around 64 ounces of water and walking 10,000 steps. Now you’re dodging ‘roid rage.

CAN BROCCOLI MAKE YOU HAPPIER? With apologies to the Founding Fathers: If they had mentioned “life, liberty and the pursuit of broccoli” in the Declaration of Independence, they would have covered both the pursuit of health AND happiness.

New research confirms these facts: Eating more fresh produce every day (essential for good health) coincides with feeling more curious, content and purposeful (essential components of happiness).

It may be that when you are happy, you eat more nutritious food — you aren’t drowning your sorrows in a sea of depressing sugar and fat. Or maybe fueling your body with the right nutrients makes everything, from your brain to intestines, work more smoothly, and that creates a happy glow. We say the one thing you can be certain of is that upgrading your nutrition upgrades your life!

Here are some of the mood-enhancing powers of fruits and veggies: — Carrots, walnuts, squash and lima beans deliver an omega-3 called alpha-linoleic acid (ALA) that’s key for decreasing inflammation. You want to keep your gray (and white) matter happy.

— Polyphenols in globe artichokes, broccoli, asparagus, rosemary, oregano, apricots, blueberries, green

tea and turmeric help prevent cell aging and fight off cognitive decline. They also may fight anxiety, depression and stress.

— Couscous dishes up selenium. It helps regulate your thyroid (which has a huge impact on mood) and eases inflammation.

— And broccoli? Along with other cruciferous veggies, it contains a good dose of calcium, essential for maintaining healthy levels of the happy neurotransmitter serotonin, and for reducing your chances of needing wooden teeth.

WANT TO LOSE WEIGHT? TAKE THE A TRAIN When Duke Ellington started playing “Take the A Train” during the 1940s and 1950s, around 30 percent of North American adults were overweight. Now the rate’s near 70 percent. If you want to avoid (or escape) that expanding demographic, listen to Duke’s advice: Take public transportation.

(The A train is the subway line that runs through Manhattan and Brooklyn, New York) Seems guys who use what researchers are calling active transportation (walking, biking and taking public transit) are 7 pounds lighter than average; gals are 5.5 pounds lighter. Proof comes from an analysis of 15 countries, including Australia, New Zealand, the European Union and North America. The U.S. is the fattest and most car-dependent — only 5 percent of you walk, bike or take public transit

to get around. Denmark is the thinnest (only 20 percent are obese), and nearly 58 percent of Danes walk, bike or take public transit to work.

Active transportation means you’re changing your position frequently; standing, bending, walking, climbing stairs, sitting and then standing again; that sure describes a ride on the A train (to Dr. Oz’s New York-Presbyterian Hospital). You’re revving your metabolism, toning muscles and keeping your brain sharper.

So instead of singing Duke’s hit “Don’t Get Around Much Anymore,” consider using active transportation the next time you head to the mall or to work. You’ll reduce your carbon footprint and extend the benefits of your daily planned physical activity (start with 30 minutes a day and ramp up to 10,000 steps every day). You didn’t think you could get out of that, did you?

ONE MORE REASON TO AVOID TRICLOSAN/ TRICLOCARBAN Howard Hughes may be the world’s most famous germaphobe (he created a “germ-free” zone in his home where he would sit naked watching movies), but germ phobia seems pretty widespread these days. More than 2,000 antibacterial products are sold, from hand soaps and toothpastes to household paints, and most contain the chemical triclosan (or its cousin, triclocarban). The Food and Drug Administration is reviewing its use in soaps, and its decision is due in 2016.

Minnesota banned its use in some products starting in 2017. But we think you should act now to get it out

Improve your entire day with these easy breakfast ideas (BPT) — Want to keep the weight off? It starts at the breakfast table. Seventy-eight percent of those who successfully maintain their weight loss eat breakfast each day, according to the National Weight Control Registry.

Why does breakfast seem to make the difference?

Anika Christ, registered dietitian and senior program manager of Life Time Weight Loss at Life Time - The Healthy Way of Life Company, says eating breakfast - especially a high-protein breakfast - will leave you with sustained energy throughout the morning. Rather than feeling famished mid-morning, many people find when they make the right breakfast choices, they can easily last until lunch time before they need to eat again.

During the morning rush, you may be tempted to skip breakfast for extra minutes of sleep or simply getting yourself and your family

ready for the day ahead.

But as many experts maintain, breakfast may be the most important meal of the day and certainly it’s the one that could give you that extra morning energy kick you’ve been looking for.

Christ says that Life Time’s nutrition philosophy builds off of a nutritious breakfast, and suggests that a healthy breakfast can be easy, even on the go, with a little bit of prep.

11 little-known facts about cancer Despite the prevalence of cancer, some information about this potentially deadly disease is not widely known. The following are some facts about cancer that may surprise you.

1. Cancer is officially known as “malignant neoplasm.”

2. Married people or those in steady relationships are more likely to survive cancer, which may be linked to couples’ increased concern and awareness of each other’s conditions and their push for cancer screenings.

3. Researchers believe that more than half of all cancers and cancer deaths are poten-

tially preventable.

4. Most cancers develop through a combination of environmental factors and heredity.

5. Ovarian cancer, colon cancer, and lung cancer are typically asymptomatic until they spread elsewhere in the body.

That is why routine screenings for these diseases are so vital.

6. Those who sleep fewer than six hours a night are more likely to develop colon cancer than those who sleep more.

7. Despite what is known about protecting oneself from the sun, skin cancer is still the most often diagnosed type of cancer, and rates continue to

steadily increase.

8. The highest rate of people diagnosed with melanoma, the most deadly form of skin cancer, are white men over the age of 50.

9. Men with a family history of breast cancer are at a higher risk for prostate cancer.

10. The left breast is statistically more prone to developing cancer than the right breast.

Unfortunately, doctors and scientists are unsure why.

11. Women of Ashkenazi Jewish descent are significantly more likely to carry breast cancer genes than the general population.

Why salt is essential to human life (BPT) - Did you know salt is an important ingredient for your good health? No electrolyte is more essential to human survival than salt because the sodium you get from salt is what allows nerves to send and receive electrical impulses, helping your muscles stay strong, your brain functioning and your cells working well. Sodium is easily absorbed and is required for the absorption of other nutrients in the small intestine and for the digestion of body-building protein.

What you may not know is sodium chloride is a nutrient that the body cannot produce, and therefore it must be eaten.

Because the body needs sodium, it has developed several mechanisms to conserve and retain it when not enough has been ingested.

The body will essentially tell your kidneys to stop releasing sodium to make sure it retains a sufficient amount to carry out all the functions that require sodium.

The other component of salt, chloride is also essential to survival and good health.

It preserves acid-base balance in the body, it aids potassium absorption, it improves the ability of the blood to move harmful carbon dioxide from tissues out to the lungs and, most importantly, it supplies the crucial stomach acids required to break down and digest all the foods we eat.

Because salt is so essential to life and good health, the human body is hard-wired with a built-in salt appetite. “The good news is that around 95 percent of the global population already consumes within the range we’ve found to generate the least instances of mortality and cardiovascular disease,” says Dr. Niels Graudal of the University of Copenhagen. This healthy range was found to be between 2,645 mg/day and 4,945 mg/day according to reach recently published in the American Journal of Hypertension.

Americans and most Eu-

ropeans consume about 3,500 mg/day of sodium, right in the middle of the healthy range. These levels of salt consumption, even with the amount of processed foods we eat, are far less than they were a century ago, because refrigeration has taken over the important role of food preservation from the traditional method of salt preservation. The higher levels of salt consumption also correspond to the countries with the greatest life expectancies.

Because the level of salt consumption is so stable, it is an ideal medium to use for fortifying other essential nutrients such as iodine.

Iodized salt first produced in the U.S. in 1924 is now used by 75 percent of the world’s population to protect against mental retar-

dation due to Iodine Deficiency Disorders (IDD).

Many countries also fortify salt with fluoride against dental cavities in situations where fluoridating drinking water is inappropriate. And a growing number of countries fortify salt with iron to prevent anemia.

Salt is also vital to hydration. After exercise, it is critical to replace both
