GETTING SMART

Local banks plan to switch to smart cards over next two years.

his or her card information, is not affected by the shift.

Kent Sinn, owner of True Value and Java J’s in Creston, said he is planning to complete a technology upgrade at his store by Oct. 1.

“Hopefully they’ll be safer so they (customers) don’t have to worry about identity theft as much,” Sinn said. “We just plan to upgrade as soon as possible and get it done.”

CNA staff reporter bpoolman@crestonnews.com

Starting Oct. 1, there will be a change in fraud liability, and because of that change, customers of several local banks in Creston will be getting new debit or credit cards.

These EMV cards, which stands for Europay, MasterCard and Visa, are smart cards that have a computer chip in them to go through the transaction, rather than swiping a magnetic stripe card. Local cards will be dual interface and have both the chip and the magnetic stripe.

S a r a h Young, electronic bank- Young ing officer and marketing specialist at First National Bank, said the cards started overseas about 30 years ago.

“It’s actually a payment system that was established overseas, I think it was the late 80’s, primarily because their infrastructure didn’t allow for immediate authorization like ours does in the United States,” Young said. “They (EMV cards) have a little microchip computer right on the face of the card. It actually gets a onetime ‘tokenization’ passcode of some sort.”

That means each transaction

Shift Generally speaking, most banks in the area are planning to implement phases of EMV card use for their customers.

“As far as our bank’s plan, because you have Visa, MasterCard, you have your vendors. Everybody’s still trying to get everything online to start issuing EMV cards. Our bank is looking at doing a phased approach from an issuance standpoint, and looking at issuing EMV cards either the latter part of 2015 or the early part of 2016,” Young said.

First National will issue new cards based on the expiration date of their customers’ current debit cards, as well as if the customer is an international traveler, since most bank terminals in other countries like England or France have EMV terminals already available. The goal for First National is for all cardholders to have a smart card by

This First National Bank card is a proof of what the new EMV cards will look like. The chip in the upper left corner of the blue card will allow for more serious fraud prevention by making sure each encrypted transaction code is used only once. First National Bank plans to roll out new cards in the latter part of 2015, and employees hope all customers will have new EMV cards by 2016.

has a unique encrypted authentication code that’s specific to that transaction and cannot be used again, making financial accounts more secure.

Banks and credit unions in Creston that will provide these cards in the coming future are Iowa State Savings Bank, First National Bank, Great Western Bank and Nishna Valley Credit Union.

Liability

Adam Snodgrass, chief financial officer, cashier and trust officer at Iowa State Savings Bank, explains that the liability shift occurring Oct. 1 will change who is liable for any fraudulent charges.

“Businesses that do not convert to EMV by Oct. 1st have some additional risk relating

to fraudulent charges made with counterfeit, stolen or compromised cards used on a business’ non-EMV card reader,” Snodgrass Snodgrass said.

Looking at it from the other standpoint, a bank is liable if their customer’s card is charged fraudulently at an EMV ready terminal, and the customer had not been issued an EMV card.

However, the liability shift only affects card-present fraud.

Card-not-present fraud, or fraud that occurs over the internet when a customer purchases something by typing in

the end of 2016.

“ISSB will be converting credit cards to EMV in October of this year, and debit cards in January of 2016,” Snodgrass said. “The conversion to EMV technology will need to occur for thousands of cards.”

Snodgrass said the conversion will occur at ISSB based on cards’ expiration date as well, but any customer who prefers not to wait for their card to expire can request an early conversion starting in January.

Great Western Bank plans to switch to EMV credit cards for now, and Nishna Valley Credit Union plans to switch to smart cards in 2016 or 2017.

PCSB Bank, on the other hand, is waiting for a recommendation before switching.

“We are waiting for our (card) provider to kind of recommend it,” said Paul

Fuller, community president of PCSB Bank in Creston.

“Right now, the vendors are slow to roll it out as well. ...

The cards do cost more to release, so we’re going to kind of wait it out and see what it’s about.”

There are no mandates for banks or vendors to switch to EMV cards. There are plans, though, for other terminals to be updated.

MasterCard ATMs will be EMV ready in 2016, and in 2017 Visa ATMs and payat-the-pump at gas stations will be EMV ready.

Education Young said First National wants to educate customers about the benefits of the new cards and how to make transactions easier so customers don’t get confused about why the cards are necessary or how to use the cards.

“On the merchant side, they’re going to have to do training with their staff, so

they will understand it and they understand how they should help their customer or our cardholder how to do that transaction,” Young said.

Fuller said customers may forget their card in the terminal because magnetic stripe cards are run through, put back in a wallet immediately and the customer grabs his or her items and goes. With smart cards, the card is inserted into the terminal for the entirety of the transaction.

Also, Snodgrass warned about outside card payment service providers coming in attempting to use the

upcoming deadline to persuade business owners into signing contacts for new terminals and such at higher prices than standard industry charges.

“I suggest businesses contact their local bank or another trusted resource before entering into an EMV contract or purchasing an EMV card reader,” Snodgrass said.

Despite all the education, benefits or disadvantages these new smart cards have at their side, all bank employees agreed on one thing: they want the best for their customers.

How is this economical?

Dear Heloise: I purchased a new “ECONOMICAL” TOPLOAD WASHER (Heloise here: high-efficiency washer).

It’s supposed to use less water and electricity, thereby saving resources. I discovered the rinse cycle uses 1/3 of the water. This is entirely inadequate for removing dirt and soap residue. Now I must run each load through another cycle with no soap to get the clothes clean.

OK, how is this economical? -- Rabelle K., Pearland, Texas Indeed it does save energy costs and water. High-efficiency machines are way different from the regular ones most of us used. They use less water, detergent and energy.

It’s very important to use the right detergent, meaning a “high-efficiency” (HE) detergent, not a regular one. Do follow the recommendations for the correct amount to use.

Most of us tend to just “free pour” rather than measure.

Too much is not better.

If you still have residue on clothing, it’s probably because you are using too much detergent. Make sure you are using only an HE detergent. A little goes a long way!

Do your clothes come out clean, without a resi-

Hints from Heloise due? Since the HE detergent does not make many suds, it doesn’t take as much water to rinse away dirt and suds. So if you’re rinsing clothes a second time just because you feel you need to, you really don’t.

Try this: Do one load your way and one the regular way.

Same? Probably so. -- Hugs, Heloise SEND A GREAT HINT TO: Heloise P.O. Box 795000 San Antonio, TX 782795000 Fax: 1-210-HELOISE Email: Heloise@Heloise. com TRAVEL HINT Dear Heloise: I went on a four-day trip and had to leave my car parked at the airport.

I don’t travel often, but I learned to park in long-term parking, not short-term. I paid only $32 for a four-day stay, while my friend parked in the regular lot. She had to pay $96 for a shorter stay because she was charged by the hour!

Naturally, I keep tax receipts and any warranty receipts in separate files and a lot longer than the tissue-box receipts. -- Sue R., Simi Valley, Calif.

BIRTHDAY LUNCH Dear Heloise: For my daughter’s birthday, I “wrapped” all the items in her lunch for school that day. Her sandwich, juice box, etc., were little presents tied with a bow.

Horoscope Saturday, Sept. 19, 2015 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Grab every opportunity if you have a chance to do work-related travel today because you will enjoy it. In fact, you will enjoy doing anything that broadens your horizons.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Be careful if you have to make important decisions about inheritances or dividing something. Your inclination today is to be too generous -perhaps to a fault.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You will enjoy schmoozing with others today, because you feel bighearted, warm and friendly toward everyone. Just make sure you don’t give away the farm.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Relations with co-workers and customers are excellent today.

You’re in the mood to offer the best, top-notch service that you can. (Admirable.)

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) This is a playful, fun-loving day. The only downside is that you might go overboard with food and drink. Just remember: Friends don’t let friends drive naked.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) You will enjoy cocooning at home today if you have the opportunity. Whatever you do today, you will do in a big way. In fact, use caution about going overboard.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Today you are full of enthusiasm and exuberance! People will enjoy talking to you, because everyone is attracted to optimism.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Be careful with financial matters today, because you might go overboard. Or conversely, you might think some kind of deal is better than it actually is. Having said that, this is a good day for business and commerce.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Today the Moon is in your sign, at odds with lucky Jupiter. Well, that is like getting hit in the head with a soft down pillow. Enjoy your day.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) You have a warm feeling in your tummy today. Something having to do with religion, politics or future travels secretly pleases you. This is good.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) In discussions with friends

or groups about fundraising or dealing with shared property or shared responsibilities, be careful. Guard against being excessive. Be realistic.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20 Be careful, because bosses and people in authority have their eye on today. Meanwhile, you feel a bit lazy. Oops. If others notice you now, why waste this chance to create a good impression?

YOU BORN TODAY You have excellent taste. You enjoy elegance and beautiful

things. This is why you are well dressed. You also make an effort to harmonize your surroundings. This year, something you’ve been involved with for about nine years will end or diminish to make room for something new. Take it easy, and learn to serve others.

This is a good year to travel.

Ladies Literary Circle

The first fall meeting of Ladies Literary Circle was held on Sept. 11 at the home of Midge Scurlock with 22 members present. In the absence of President Linda Hartsock, Vice President Marilyn Engelson conducted the meeting. Secretary Jean E. Mark read the minutes from the previous meeting, and they were approved as read. Dyan Huffman gave the treasurer’s report. Jean Ide reported on the progress of the library expansion and the work of the new head librarian David Hargrove.

The friends of the library book sale was announced for Sept. 18 and 19, and the need for the donation of books was discussed.

The program committee introduced Stephani Finley, who reviewed “The Book Thief” by Markus Zusak.

Death narrates the story in this powerful novel of World War II. It is 1939. Liesel Merninger is delivered to her foster parents, Hans and Rosa, after a long train journey in which her younger brother dies. His burial site is where Liesel acquires her first book, “The Grave Digger’s Handbook.” She is only

nine and cannot read but treasures this book full of words. Her foster dad begins to teach her to read, and she sees the power of words especially as Hitler dominates and controls the people. She takes books to read from the mayor’s home when she delivers clean laundry washed by her foster mother. She just borrows these books and always returns them. She is able to snatch a book from a pile of books burned by the Nazis. She begins to write her own story in an old book that has been painted white to make the pages clean. Liesel realizes that words can destroy but also save and encourage others, changing lives. Death makes comments all through the book.

Death is overworked because of the war. Gathering all of the souls from the war casualties is overwhelming.

He sees the horrors of war but also notes the small acts of kindness and unexpected courage and is touched by these. Death is forced to conclude that lives of humans can make a difference and do matter.

The next meeting will be at the home of Vera Fengler at 10 a.m. on Sept. 25. Mark will review “The Glass Castle,” a memoir by Jeannette Walls.

Reunion CHS class of 1950 holds reunion Creston high school classmates celebrated 65th years since graduating in 1950.

HEALTH

Feel better fast: Ways to perk up your mood in an instant (BPT) — Sometimes, no matter how hard you try, stress finds its way into our lives. Thankfully there are things you can do to shake any bad feelings fast. Try these six surefire tips to boost your mood instantly.

Put a song in your head.

Regardless of genre preference, music has a way of lifting spirits. Make a playlist of upbeat songs to brighten the day, or create a fresh new station on your favorite Internet radio service. When the stress sets in, let the music play. You’ll be singing a new tune in no time, and your positive energy may even lighten up the people around you!

Try water for wellness.

Water has a way of inviting relaxation, so start your day with a warm, steamy shower. You can easily turn the bathroom into a personal spa by upgrading your showerhead with a powerful rainshower. Or, go for a major upgrade and design a new spa-like oasis, including full-body, customizable coverage with body sprays. Moen’s new Mosaic flushmount multi-function body sprays are the perfect addition,

as they direct water just where you want it and can allow you to easily switch between two settings: regular flow and pulsing massage. It’s sure to put you in an amazing mood, whether it’s the beginning or the end of your day.

Just say “Om.” Much like fitness trains your body, meditation trains your mind, so turn off the stress and get in the “now” by meditating. With regular practice, it’s been shown to create a sense of emotional balance and decrease

stress. Don’t know how?

Try attending yoga classes, or download Headspace, the app that teaches you how to meditate in just 10 minutes a day.

Get outdoors. Grab your hiking shoes and head out the door. Recent studies

show that taking walks in nature - or even just looking at it - can have a rejuvenating effect on the brain, making it work better and more effectively. And as a bonus, the vitamin D taken in from the sun during your time outdoors will help

keep your body balanced.

Hit the gym. If you’re not the outdoorsy type, flip your mood around at the gym. A workout or even just a fast-paced, 30-minute walk can stimulate different chemicals in the brain that make you feel more relaxed and happy.

Boost your positive endorphins all day with a morning workout. Plus, this will do more than just improve your bad mood - it will also get your body in shape.

Hug it out. A study supported by the National Institutes of Health found that our bodies release a hormone known as oxytocin when it encounters love and affection. So when you’re feeling blue, it’s amazing what a hug can do!

Whether it’s your friends, family members or pets, being around the ones you care about will improve your state of mind, reduce stress and lower blood pressure.

Don’t you feel better already? Take control of those tough days and remember one or all of these surefire mood boosters. You’ll be feeling fine in no time!

A grown-up shot in the arm Jennifer Lopez and Amanda Peet are Hollywood A-listers who favor vaccinations for children.

But do they know that vaccines aren’t just for babies and back-to-schoolers?

They should take the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention quiz (Google: “adolescent and adult vaccine quiz”) to find out what they might need — and so should you! Adult vaccines and boosters protect you, your family and your neighbors from a variety of contagious diseases. Here are our recommendations: Flu shots: Annually.

Measles, Mumps, Rubella (MMR): Born before 1957?

You’re considered immune to the trio. Born in 1957 or later? You should have documentation of vaccination.

If you don’t have it, get protection. During the first five months of 2011, 45 percent of U.S. measles cases were in adults 20 and older.

Tetanus, diphtheria and pertussis (Tdap): It’s for any adult who hasn’t had the Tdap vaccine, and all pregnant women. Had your Tdap? Ask about a booster; the pertussis (whooping cough) vaccine loses effectiveness over time. Get a booster vaccine for tetanus and diphtheria every 10 years following the Tdap vaccine.

Pneumococcal disease (pneumonia): For adults 65plus and folks with specific health conditions, there are two forms of this vaccine; you and your doc should talk about getting each one in alternate years.

Shingles: “For anyone 60 or older” is the official recommendation. But we think 50 makes much more

Weekly health tips Dr. Mehmet Oz, M.D. and Dr. Michael Roizen, M.D.

sense, based on available data.

Varicella (chickenpox): Born in the U.S. before 1980? You’re assumed to be immune. Otherwise, those age 13 or up who haven’t had chickenpox or the vaccine get two doses, at least 28 days apart.

OATMEAL: IT’S WHAT’S FOR BREAKFAST When Cleopatra slipped into her oatmeal-and-buttermilk-filled bathtub, she was making sure her skin was healthy and smooth-looking all day long. What she didn’t know what that those magic grains could do the same for her insides. Seems that nutty-tasting oat groats (that’s what the seed inside an oat husk is called) pack a powerhouse of anti-aging nutrients. One cup provides two of the six servings of the whole grains you should eat daily, almost a third of your fiber and around 20 percent of your iron and 4 percent of your calcium. This helps maintain a healthy, youthful cardiovascular and digestive system.

And there’s more good news about oatmeal: A new study from Louisiana State University School of Nutrition and Food Sciences shows that oatmeal satisfies your hunger better than ready-to-eat cereals, even those made from oats. That means if you have oatmeal for breakfast, you’ll eat less at lunch — making this the perfect weight-control

morning meal.

But you’ve gotta go for the good grain, not the instant oatmeal packs that come loaded with 12 times as much sugar and 33 percent less fiber than old-fashioned rolled oats. We’re taking about rolled oats (steamed and flattened whole oat groats) and steelcut oats, which are broken groats from the de-husking process. Sometimes they’re eaten raw (that’s muesli) or cooked into the familiar hot porridge. We suggest livening things up by mixing in 12 walnut halves, nonfat Greek yogurt or nonfat almond milk and fresh berries. Now you’ll sail through the day or down the Nile.

DON’T LET LIFE GET BLURRY AS YOU AGE At age 84, Sister Madonna Buder (aka The Iron Nun), finished Ironman Canada.

How’d she do it? Sister Iron says, “All I was concentrating on [was] getting the job done.”

Single-mindedness is essential for endurance athletes — and also for you, as you walk 10,000 steps a day (you are doing it, aren’t you?) to strengthen your body and mind without the wear-n-tear of endurance sports. Plus, mental focus lets you drive safely or read (and remember) a book on a crowded commuter train.

But many folks say that over time, focus becomes difficult, and they’re more easily distracted.

Well, researchers re-

cently measured the brain activity of volunteers ages 18 to 88 as they watched a movie and reacted to distractions. Turns out, as you age you notice and react to ever more diverse sensory stimuli, and that can blur your focus. Aging, said the researchers, makes your “experience of the world ... increasingly individualistic,” differing from both younger folks and your peers.

So how can you enjoy the benefits of expanding sensory awareness and hold on to the ability to focus sharply?

Try this.

1. Reduce mind-clouding stress with mindful meditation for five minutes every morning and evening (sharecare.com has info).

2. Do resistance-training exercises for 30 minutes, three days a week.

3. Practice attention training: Set up tasks that require you to tune in to what you’re doing and tune out distractions (like reading while the TV is on or writing an email in a noisy room).

Now you’re ready to defy expectations, just like Sister Madonna.

THE PRINCESS AND THE (NON-GMO) PEA In the Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale, a princess has a sleepless night because her future mother-in-law places a pea under the 20 mattresses she sleeps on.

The next day, her sensitivity is rewarded with marriage to the prince. If the tale were published in Copenhagen today, the pea would be labeled “GMO” or “nonGMO,” and the princess wouldn’t have to wonder where her pea came from.

Now, if only North Americans had GMO labeling

(like Russia, China, the E.U.), you could decide for yourself what to give your little princes and princesses. We’re not necessarily opposed to genetically modified foods. Dr. Oz has given a page on his website to Dr. Michael Greenberg, who defends the safety of the herbicide glyphosate (RoundUp); it’s half of the herbicide Enlist Duo, which we and 115,000 people petitioned the White House to ban until more tests are done. And we still think — as does an editorial in the New England Journal of Medicine — that responsible labeling laws for GMO products will allow you to be the best judge of what you feed your family. But back to the princess and the pea.

There naturally exist anti-nutritional proteins in peas. Scientists in the EU have found a “desired mutation” of a pea that yields 10 percent more nutrients when it doesn’t have those proteins. Using non-GM methods (they remove the blocking proteins but don’t add anything), scientists can produce a more nutritious pea. That’s making science work for all of us.

YOU ARE WHAT YOU DRINK — AND IT’S NOT WHAT YOU THINK Celebrity endorsements for soda have been around for years. Remember Mean Joe Green’s 1979 ad for the softer side of Coke? Ever see Norman Rockwell’s 1928 painting of a young lad with a fishing pole declaring he and Coke were friends for life? More recently, Taylor Swift (Diet Coke), Beyonce (Pepsi) and Steve Harvey (Coke again) have flacked for soda.

They all look so fit and trim! Must mean it’s OK to indulge, right? Think again.

A recent study by researchers in Japan, Finland, the U.K. and the U.S. found that even if you’re a healthy weight, drinking sugary soda, as well as diet soda and fruit drinks, ups your risk for developing Type 2 diabetes.

Seems that in North America, drinking one 12-ounce sugar-laden soda (or adding one to your usual consumption) increases the risk by 18 percent for those who are overweight and 13 percent for normal-weight folks. (And although the data is less solid, researchers found that even if you’re normal weight, one DIET soda a day ups your risk for Type 2 diabetes by 8 percent.)

Of almost 21 million cases of diabetes expected to develop in the U.S. over the next 10 years, 1.8 million will be directly attributable to drinking sugary drinks. And another new study reveals that sugar intake is linked to a more rapid development of Type 1 diabetes as well!

So we say if you’re thirsty, peel an orange, slice a watermelon, sip iced tea or coffee, and enjoy as many glasses of water a day as you want! *** Mehmet Oz, M.D. is host of “The Dr. Oz Show,” and Mike Roizen, M.D. is Chief Wellness Officer and Chair of Wellness Institute at Cleveland Clinic.

KING-TV reports Dr. Lesanna Lahner diagnosed the otter, named Mishka, after she was having trouble breathing when smoke from wildfires was in the Seattle area.

Mishka’s trainer uses food to teach the 1-yearold to push her nose on the inhaler and take a deep

breath. The medication in the otter’s inhaler is exactly the same as what humans use.

Lahner says reduced genetic diversity could have contributed to Mishka’s diagnosis. Sea otters went extinct in Washington and 40 years ago, Alaskan sea otters were brought south and reintroduced to the coast.

In Memory of Vicki L. Connelly 12-29-52 to 9-18-10 It doesn’t seem possible you have been gone for 5 years on this day. You were not only my mother, but my best friend. It broke my heart to lose you but you did not go alone. A part of me went with you the day God took you home. A million times I miss you, a million times I have cried. If love could have saved you, you would never have died. If love could build a stairway and if heartache could build a lane, I’d walk the far path to heaven to bring you and dad back home again! Words can’t describe how much you are missed. Shawn and I remind the boys daily of their Nana and Papa. We remind the boys of your every morning stop at my house bringing them bananas and apples or a treat!

We miss you and love you Mama.

Love, Heather, Shawn, Clayton and Cason

Lifeline telephone assistance program helps Iowans stay connected DES MOINES — National Lifeline Awareness Week is Sept. 14-20, 2015, and the Iowa Utilities Board is partnering with other state utility commissions, the Federal Communications Commission and the National Association of Regulatory Utility Commissioners to inform eligible Iowa consumers about available benefits and requirements of the Lifeline telephone assistance program.

Having telephone service is essential for staying connected with family, finding job opportunities, locating vital community and health care resources and calling for help in an emergency. Lifeline is a federal government benefit program that provides income-eligible Iowans with financial discounts on monthly telephone service bills. If eligible, the program provides a $9.25 monthly credit for one telephone connection, either wireline or wireless, per qualified household.

Lifeline can potentially assist thousands of Iowa

households. The board helps promote Lifeline Awareness Week to remind consumers and telephone service providers about eligibility and other rules, including the annual recertification requirement, to make this program as efficient and effective as possible.

To become certified, Iowa consumers must have an annual household income at or below 135 percent of the federal poverty guidelines or participate in other federal public assistance programs such as the Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program or Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. Potential participants are required to provide supporting documentation for

family income or assistance program participation when applying for certification in the Lifeline program. Once enrolled, it is mandatory that all Lifeline-certified participants complete and return an annual eligibility verification form to continue receiving Lifeline monthly assistance.

To apply, one must first verify that the telephone service provider of choice is a Lifeline participant. A list of the Lifeline providers in Iowa, along with additional Lifeline information, is available on the Universal Service Administrative Company Website, www.lifelinesupport.org. Next, complete an application form available on the board’s website or

from participating telecommunications service providers and return the form to the chosen service provider.

To avoid FCC citations and fines, households currently receiving more than one Lifeline benefit must select a single Lifeline service provider and de-enroll from the program with other provider(s).

To learn more about Lifeline, go online to the FCC website or review the Iowa Utilities Board Lifeline Consumer Information at https:// iub.iowa.gov/lifeline. Questions may also be directed to the Lifeline telecommunications service provider or persons may call the board’s customer service staff tollfree at 1-877-565-4450.

THE NUMBERS GAME

18-1

Denver’s record in divisional games since 2012, the best mark in the NFL in that span.

NATIONAL DIGEST

Broncos stunner KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos have beaten the Kansas City Chiefs every way imaginable over the years, from playoff shootouts to defensive tug-of-wars.

Well, not quite every way. Not until Thursday night.

Denver cornerback Bradley Roby returned Jamaal Charles’ second fumble 21 yards for a touchdown with 27 seconds left, completing a stunning comeback in the closing minute for a 31-24 victory — the Broncos’ seventh straight over their AFC West rivals.

Manning threw for 256 yards and three scores, the last to Emmanuel Sanders with 36 seconds left as the Broncos (2-0) appeared to force overtime. But on the next play from scrimmage, with the Chiefs (1-1) also eyeing overtime, Charles was stripped by Brandon Marshall and the ball bounced right into Roby’s hands.

Clemson holds on LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Clemson players chose to focus more on the result of their performance against Louisville rather than how it looked, a wise choice considering things were sometimes hard to look at.

The mission now for the No. 11 Tigers is building on the many good things that worked in their 20-17 escape of the Cardinals on Thursday night.

Deshaun Watson provided many of the positives by throwing two touchdown passes while Wayne Gallman ran for 139 yards as the Tigers won the Atlantic Coast Conference opener for both schools.

Clemson sacked quarterback Kyle Bolin five times and held the Cardinals to 19 yards rushing, offsetting ragged stretches that gave Louisville several chances to tie or win down the stretch.

Cards sweep MILWAUKEE — Startled at the sight of his line drive hitting Brewers pitcher Jimmy Nelson in the head, Tommy Pham felt himself freeze for a moment.

Pham wound up with a double when the ball ricocheted off the back of Nelson’s head and down the left field line, a scary sight in the St. Louis Cardinals’ 6-3 win over Milwaukee on Thursday night.

Prone face down on the mound for about a minute, Nelson later walked off the field and was hospitalized overnight for observation. A CT scan showed a contusion.

John Lackey pitched seven shutout innings as the NL Central leaders completed a three-game sweep. The Cardinals extended their winning streak to four and now lead Pittsburgh by five games in the division race.

Pham tripled, doubled and singled, driving in two runs and scoring twice as St. Louis sent the Brewers to their sixth loss in a row.

a Weaver block and kill. The Tigers finally tied the match at 1717 with a Jacy Stoaks Stoaks kill.

Earlham scored the next

two points to go up 19-17, but Lenox fought back to take a 22-19 lead on a Stoaks ace.

“I was impressed with Jacy Stoaks,” Dukes said.

“She has really been stepping up her game in the last few matches. She has been a force at the net and in the backcourt.”

Earlham cut the lead to

22-21, but a Weaver kill put the Tigers to points away from sending the match to a deciding fifth set.

But the Cardinals ended the match with four straight points for the 3-1 victory.

“The kids kept trying,” Dukes said. “We were Please see LENOX, page 4S

Running backs: Start ‘em, sit ‘em for week 2 in fantasy football Carlos Hyde turned in the biggest performance of any fantasy football player, let alone for running backs, during week 1 of the NFL season and he was rarely mentioned on anyone’s radar coming into the first week.

Hyde produced 30.2 points in a physical effort against Minnesota on Monday night. Many people were waiting to see what San Francisco would look like without Jim Harbaugh, and if Monday was any indication, we’re in for pretty much the same approach.

Other major running back contributors were Matt Forte with 22.6 points, Chris Ivory with 22, Bishop Sankey with 20.60, Jeremy Hill with 18.3 and Danny Woodhead with 18.2.

On a week-to-week basis, likely only Forte and Hill are good plays, but Ivory, Sankey and Woodhead do offer some upside.

Tigers can’t overcome early deficits in loss to Earlham LENOX — After taking the first set here Thursday against Earlham, Lenox couldn’t overcome early deficits the rest of the way out in a 15-25, 25-21, 25-16, 25-23 loss to the Cardinals.

Lenox controlled the first set, taking an early 10-2 lead. After Earlham fought back to tie the score at 1111, Lenox went on an 11-1 run to take a commanding 22-12 lead.

Mika Weaver’s kill ended the set at 25-15.

“The girls were talking and they were excited,” Lenox head coach Sara Dukes said about the first set. “Our passing was really good. We just came out early. That was the key. We got behind in all the other sets.”

Earlham jumped to an 11-4 lead in set two, with Lenox fighting back to make it 11-9 and then 14-11.

After the Cardinals stretched the lead to 22-12, Lenox cut it to 23-19, but couldn’t manage to get any closer.

Trailing 2-1 going into the fourth set, the Tigers dug themselves into an early 12-2 deficit.

But they clawed their way back into the set, making it 12-11 thanks in part to

Section

Here are our best bets of what running backs to start and sit in week 2 of the NFL season.

Start

Chris Ivory vs.

Indianapolis We’re riding the Chris Ivory train again.

Indianapolis should bounce back with a good effort this week, but the New York Jets are going to do anything to keep this as low-scoring as possible.

Enter Ivory.

The Jets running back finished third among running backs for points last week, and against the Colts, he should get plenty of looks again. Last week, he logged 20 carries, and it could have been more if

the game was close in the fourth quarter.

The Jets instead used Bilal Powell toward the end, giving Ivory some rest.

Fantasy football owners should expect possibly even more touches this week, and the Colts allowed 147 rushing yards against Buffalo last week.

Combine that with Indianapolis’ middle of the pack numbers last year against the run, and Ivory is another good bet for points this week.

Justin Forsett vs.

Oakland As long as Forsett is healthy, which you should keep an eye on this week, he should run wild on Oakland’s defense.

Baltimore’s offense was

anemic in week 1 against Denver, and Forsett didn’t a d d much. He rushed for 43 yards and hauled in 13 receiving yards for 5.6 Forsett fantasy points.

The Ravens passing attack was even worse, with Joe Flacco registering less than a point in fantasy football. We expect the Ravens to come out and pound the ball against the Raiders, which surrendered 127 rushing yards last week to Please see CHALK, page 3S

Fourth row (seated), MaKenna Hudson. Standing at top, Lesi Rounds and Paige Busch. Not pictured, Ellie Starlin, coach Jan Lesan and assistant coach Alycia Besch.

DENISON — After host Denison-Schleswig knotted the match at one set apiece here Thursday night, the Creston volleyball team took control in set three and went on to post a 25-16, 18-25, 2512, 25-16 win over the Lady Monarchs.

The Panthers pounced on Denison-Schleswig in the first set, getting out to a good start after enduring the long bus ride to Denison.

But the Lady Monarchs rebounded with a 25-18 win in set two.

“The first game we handled them pretty well,” Creston head coach Polly Luther said. “Second game we kind of let up a little bit and they improved their game. Game three, we got a little more fired up.”

Leading 18-12 in set three, freshman Jaxie Luther served seven straight points to close out the set and give the Panthers a pivotal set in a rau- Luther cous Denison gymnasium.

Winning that third set was key for the Panthers, especially playing in a tough road environment.

“That was very important, especially when you’re in someone else’s gym,” coach Luther said. “If you’re not on top, it’s hard to climb your way back up. With that string of serves, she held on. They had a great student section.

Our freshman and JV group, they were just as good. Not as big in numbers, but vocally we were pretty good. Jaxie getting that string of serves and getting to go into game four on top was a pretty big deal.”

Luther finished the match serving 24-of-24 with six aces, several of which came in that service string to end the third set.

Coach Luther also credited her back row’s play as a big contributor in the win.

Jami Sickels finished with a teamhigh 13 digs and received serve at an 18-of-23 rate. Alyssa Higgins added 12 Sickels digs and was 6-of9 on serve receive. Gracie Russell finished with 11 digs and Alli Thomsen had nine.

“My back row was doing some really good things.

Jami Sickels had a great night for us,” coach Luther said. “They were reading well. They were digging up balls. Their movements were a lot more fluid than they have been. Things are starting to click for us.”

The Panthers finished off the victory with a 25-16 win in set four.

“Game four, I told the girls we needed to get out of there,” coach Luther said.

Bearcat duo sidelined by injuries

Outdoor news Outdoor expo

Hunting and fishing is done with family and friends at places that hold special meaning, creating a shared experience that will be reminisced at family gatherings for years to come.

Hunters and anglers also play an important role in Iowa economically, as conservationists and as primary recruiters bringing new participants to traditional outdoor sports.

It’s that role Iowa Governor Terry Branstad recognized when signing a proclamation declaring September 26 as Iowa Hunting and Fishing Day. Part of the reason for the proclamation was to encourage young Iowans to carry on the traditions of hunting, fishing and outdoor recreation.

The proclamation noted that 600,000 Iowans support the state’s economy by spending $800 million annually while hunting and fishing.

Hunters and anglers are encouraged to celebrate Iowa Hunting and Fishing Day at the Iowa Outdoor Expo, September 26 from 9-6 and September 27 from 10-4, at the Des Moines Waterworks Park. Attendees can read and sign Gov. Branstad’s proclamation that references Iowa’s rich and storied tradition of hunting and fishing that predates statehood. It also states that it is important for young Iowans to carry on the traditions of hunting and fishing and outdoor recreation.

The Iowa Outdoor Expo allows participants to try fishing, bow fishing, canoeing and kayaking, outdoor cooking, trap shooting, archery, off road vehicles and more in a safe, controlled environment.

A full list of activities is available at www.iowadnr.gov/ expo.

“We go hunting and fishing with people who are important to us,” said Chuck Gipp, director, Iowa Department of Natural Resources. “Hunting and fishing is about spending time together in Iowa’s wild places more than it is about filling a limit or bagging a trophy. There is nothing more valuable than our time and we share that valuable time with those who are closest to us.”

Those experiences are rehashed, retold and embellished at subsequent get togethers.

“People love to tell stories,” Gipp said. “And some of the best stories happen at the coffee shop or at family gatherings and inevitably we start talking about a successful hunting or fishing trip and then everyone chimes in with their own bragging board tale.

We want to share the experience with our friends and family who were not along and these stories bring them with us.”

Hunting and fishing is personal to Iowans, Gipp said.

They take ownership of the resource and want to protect it and they often put their money where their passions lie.

The $30 million spent each year to purchase licenses is used to manage and improve hunting and fishing. License buyers also join conservation groups, like Ducks Unlimited, Pheasants Forever, Whitetails Unlimited, Wild Turkey Federation, Izaak Walton League, and encourage support from cities, counties and the state and other organizations to protect and enhance Iowa’s natural resources.

“National Hunting and Fishing Day celebrates our traditional outdoor sports.

Hunters and anglers serve a key role not only financially but as primary recruiter to introduce new participants to these lifetime pursuits,” Gipp said. “They need to teach the next generation and they can do that simply by asking someone to go fishing or to come along on the next hunt.”

And there are plenty of opportunities right now and more beginning in the next few weeks.

Dove, rabbit and squirrel seasons are currently open.

Duck season, pheasant season, deer season open at different points in October.

“Our pheasant roadside counts are at an eight year high, our deer herd is at or near population management goals, the duck population is in excellent shape so there are a lot of positives for hunters this fall,” Gipp said. “For many of our wildlife species

today will be referred to as the good old days.”

Hunters looking to branch out to new areas have a new tool to find hunting ground close to home.

The Iowa DNR created a hunting atlas available online at www.iowadnr.gov. It is an interactive map that identifies all public land open to hunting, has information on species in the area, any zones or restrictions, and provides printable maps. The DNR has also been working to expand hunter access to private land through a program that benefits landowners by working to improve habitat on their land in exchange for hunter access.

The Iowa Habitat and Access Program (IHAP) now has more than 9,000 acres of private land available to hunters.

the Bengals.

That number could have been worse had the game not been over by halftime. Forsett will get several carries and should bounce back from a disappointing effort.

Ameer Abdullah vs.

Minnesota That rush defense was horrible by Minnesota on Monday. The Vikings allowed allowed a league-worst 230 yards on the ground.

The Lions will go at Minnesota with a different attack (the 49ers were more smash mouth, while the Lions will spread out Minnesota), but a team that allows that many yards in one game is concerning.

And Abdullah did get the most opportunities on the Lions in terms of touches. He garnered 11 touches and registered 50 rushing yards and 44 receiving yards.

The coaching staff would be wise to increase his workload a bit, and against the Vikings if he has the hot hand, he will likely load up on more fantasy points.

We’re concerned about the split system, but Abdullah did enough in his first game to warrant more carries. Expect Detroit to feed him the ball more and start him this week.

Marshawn Lynch vs.

Green Bay For how much Green Bay should be happy with its week 1 victory, the defense should cause concern.

Matt Forte ran all over the Packers defense to the rune of 141 rushing yards. And now Seattle is coming to town after Lynch totaled less than 20 carries last week.

The Seattle coaching staff will feed Lynch the ball far more this week, making him likely the best fantasy option at the running back position.

Sit

Matt Forte vs. Arizona We know what Forte did last week against the Packers.

But this is a new week and the matchup isn’t good for Forte.

The Cardinals held New Orleans to 54 yards rushing, registering the best number against the run during week 1. Arizona’s defense will once again look to halt the run this week and force Jay Cutler to beat them.

That doesn’t bode well for Forte, who hasn’t been known to be a bruising running back able to carry the load for 25 or more carries.

He will take a step back this week and the Bears will throw more, based on the Cardinals forcing the action.

Chargers runnings backs vs. Cincinnati We didn’t like San Diego’s running back situation in the offseason for fantasy football owners. It’s not that there isn’t talent. It’s that there’s too many players in the backfield who can gobble up touches.

That will be a persistent problem for Melvin Gordon and Danny Woodhead owners in the future. Woodhead registered one of the highest running back totals in week 1, but how can you trust him going forward?

There’s no reason to believe either one will emerge from the pack, unlike in Detroit where Abdullah should be given the nod. And in this matchup, the Bengals have traditionally been good against the rush, so this is a matchup to avoid in week 2.

Lamar Miller vs. Jacksonville We were a bit discouraged with the amount of touches Miami afforded Lamar Miller in week 1 against Washington.

The Dolphins only attempted 18 rushes against Washington, which was two shy of the NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING AND TO BIDDERS CITY OF CRESTON, IOWA CRESTON CITY HALL EXTERIOR OPENING RESTORATION PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT PROJECT Notice is hereby given that the City Council of the City of Creston, Iowa, will meet at the Council Chambers in the City Hall, 116 West Adams Street, Creston, Iowa, at 6:00 p.m. on September 15th, 2015 at which time and place the City Council will set a Public Hearing for October 6th 2015 for review and approval of the contract for construction of said Creston City Hall - Exterior Opening Restoration project.

But the kids worked really hard. We worked the crap out of our middles (Weaver and Stoaks).”

The Tigers were playing without Shantelle Brown, who gives the team a third capable hitter in the front row.

Earlham, meanwhile, attacked the Tiger defense from the middle with sophomores Taylor Hipsley and Emma Thomson.

“We struggled with trying to get that down, but our middles, they really did work their tails off to get that done,” Dukes said. “They just worked back and forth, hitting and blocking for us. They were both big tonight.”

Weaver finished the match with 12 kills and two solo blocks, while Stoaks added eight kills and three solo blocks with four digs and three ace serves on 9-of-9 serving.

Bethany Christensen set 10 assists and was 10-11 serving with four aces. Katelyn Belding led the Tigers with 14 digs and served 8-9. Hannah Mitchell had five assists and served 9-10.
