Charles City man faces murder charges in Newton homicide Berber killed in his home in March

By Kayla Langmaid Newton Daily News A Charles City man has been arrested in connection with the death of a Newton man who was found inside of his rural home in March.

Randy L. Linderman, 52, of Charles City, is facing a first-degree murder charge for

the death of 61-year-old Jose Ramirez Berber according to the Jasper County Sheriff ’s

Office. The incident occurred March 6.

The Iowa State Medical Examiner reported autopsy results determined the cause of death was blunt force trauma.

Berber was found dead after officials received a 911 call to 4252 Maple St. in reference to an unresponsive individual.

When law enforcement and Newton Fire and EMS arrived, they found Berber lying on the floor unresponsive.

Linderman was arrested Thursday morning in Charles City.

Michael Motsinger, Iowa Department of Public Safety Division of Criminal Investigation, declined releasing further information at this time.

“These agencies have been working hard the last four months,” Motsinger said. “We are glad to finally have an arrest.”

Berber’s neighbors and friends described him as

The arrest is a result of a joint investigation by the Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation, Charles City Police Department, Floyd County Sheriff ’s Office and the Jasper County Sheriff ’s Office.

The Sweet Smell of Success

Local business voted Garbageman of the Year

By David Dolmage Newton Daily News The trash business smells a little sweeter to Liz Dodd this month.

Dodd, who along with her husband Dave, owns Dodd’s Trash and Recycling, found out this month their business has been voted the Best Garbageman in America.

The contest, organized by Rubicon Global, a nationwide trash and recycling operation, asked people around the country to vote for their favorite trash company, and Dodd’s was the win-

Jamee A. Pierson/Daily News A stretch of First Avenue East between the 1200 and 1300 blocks is getting rehabbed with buildings coming down and potential development going up.

New look coming for properties on First Avenue East

By Jamee A. Pierson Newton Daily News A section of First Avenue East in Newton, will get a new look after three properties and two lots were recently purchased.

The buildings in the 1200 and 1300 blocks of First Avenue East and properties at 1309 and 1315 First Ave. E. have been purchased by developer John Gretlein to be demolished and redeveloped.

“He is buying this land, tear-

ing down the building and looking to build to suit,” real estate agent Dick Boggess said.

Gretlein currently owns properties in Newton, including the strip mall just west of the property on First Avenue housing Goodwill and El Sombrero, the Hallmark and Hammer Medical Building, the Optimae building and the Napa Auto Parts building. He is also in the process of constructing a building between the Hallmark and Napa buildings to house Anytime Fitness and Kinetic Edge. It is expected

to be finished this fall.

Boggess said specific plans are not established for the land but that an additional strip mall could be built in that area. He said Gretlein is also willing to built to suit if a business is interested.

For information about the potential development of the property, contact Boggess at Birkenholtz Realty at 641-792-4764.

Liz Dodd said the award was a testament to the hard work that her family and her employees have put into the business over the years.

“We’ve been in the business more than 50 years, we pride ourselves on our effective service,” Dodd said. “It takes everyone who works here working together or we would have never even been a contender.”

The business was started by Dodd’s father-in-law. Lloyd Dodd DODD’S | 3A

Future Jasper County Health Department location discussed by board of health, supervisor Brock

By Jamee A. Pierson Newton Daily News A new space to provide services is the number one priority for the Jasper County Health Department and Jasper County Board of Health.

Joe Brock, an official on the Jasper County Board of Supervisors, spoke with the board at its meeting Thursday about where the supervisors

sit on the topic and what steps the department should take before bringing the issue to the board.

JCHD is currently housed in the basement of the Jasper County Annex Building, a building the supervisors have been reviewing for potential rehabilitation due to major water issues in the lower level. It has been housed there since its inception in February

2016, following Skiff Medical Center ending its longtime partnership with the county.

“We decided to look at it in stages,” Brock said. “We looked at the building, as far as controlling the water on the outside, removing the staircase and fixing up the dock area.”

Brock said as of now, he is not sure where the project is heading.

Central Iowa Today Today in History

WEATHER FORECAST

Today is Friday, July 14, the 195th day of 2017. There are 170 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On July 14, 1789, in an event symbolizing the start of the French Revolution, citizens of Paris stormed the Bastille prison and released the seven prisoners inside.

On this date: In 1798, Congress passed the Sedition Act, making it a federal crime to publish false, scandalous or malicious writing about the United States government.

In 1881, outlaw William H. Bonney Jr., alias “Billy the Kid,” was shot and killed by Sheriff Pat Garrett in Fort Sumner in present-day New Mexico.

In 1917, CBS newsman Douglas Edwards, who in 1948 became network television’s first nightly news anchor, was born in Ada, Okla.

In 1933, all German political parties, except the Nazi Party, were outlawed. Cartoon character Popeye the Sailor made his movie debut in the Fleischer Studios animated short, “Popeye the Sailor.”

In 1945, Italy formally declared war on Japan, its former Axis partner during World War II. In 1976, Jimmy Carter won the Democratic presidential nomination at the party’s convention in New York.

In 1980, the Republican national convention opened in Detroit, where nominee-apparent Ronald Reagan told a welcoming rally he and his supporters were determined to “make America great again.”

In 1999, race-based school busing in Boston came to an end after 25 years.

Ten years ago: North Korea told the United States it had shut down its nuclear reactor, hours after a ship cruised into port loaded with oil promised in return for the country’s pledge to disarm. Former presidents, fellow first ladies and about 1,800 other people attended a private funeral in Austin, Texas, for Lady Bird Johnson, the widow of President Lyndon B. Johnson.

Five years ago: A suicide bomber blew himself up among guests at a wedding hall in northern Afghanistan, killing 23 people, including a prominent ex-Uzbek warlord turned lawmaker who was the father of the bride. Nick Buckles, the boss of British security group G4S, went on BBC Television to say he was sorry that his company had bungled the contract to help protect the upcoming 2012 London Olympic Games.

One year ago: Terror struck Bastille Day celebrations in the French Riviera city of Nice (nees) as a large truck plowed into a festive crowd, killing 86 people in an attack claimed by Islamic State extremists; the driver was shot dead by police.

That’s Odd Man trapped in ATM slips notes to customers begging for help CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas (AP) — Police say a Texas man who became trapped inside an ATM slipped notes to customers via the receipt slot pleading for them to help him escape.

Corpus Christi police Lt. Chris Hooper says the contractor became stuck Wednesday when he was changing a lock to a Bank of America room that leads to the ATM. The unidentified contractor, who had left his cellphone in his truck, encountered a problem with the lock.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) — Welcome back to Margaritaville: Singer Jimmy Buffett’s childhood home on Thursday backed off a short-lived ban on the sale of pitchers of the drink he made famous.

The Alabama Alcoholic Beverage Control Board announced an end to the pitcher prohibition a day after al.com published a column criticizing the moratorium. The irresistible mix of Buffett, Alabama’s perceived prudishness and tequila helped the topic quickly gain traction on social media.

The agency denied changing its mind because of publicity. The reversal had already been under consideration, said spokesman Dean Argo.

on an old rule that makes it illegal to “adulterate” alcohol, Argo said. The state determined pitchers of Margaritas were illegal since each glass from a pitcher could have a different amount of alcohol.

Beer pitchers are a dif-

ferent matter, Argo said.

“The alcohol content does not fluctuate or sink while sitting on a counter,” he said.

Argo said ABC officials decided to change their view of the code section that led to the ban after discussing the issue with the Alabama Beverage Licensees Association. The law mentions pitcher sales of drinks that are “customarily” sold that way, he said.

The executive director of the trade group, Brandon Owens, said he first heard of the ban weeks ago from a business that was barred from selling sangria by the pitcher. He attributed the problem to relatively new state inspectors not understanding ABC rules.

“I think what you’re seeing is a training issue,” said Owens.

Local & State News Dodd’s Continued from Page 1A started small, with just a single pickup truck gathering trash throughout the town. Hard work and dedication helped grow the business, which today handles trash service, recycling and roll-off service throughout Jasper county.

“Once we start something we don’t quit,” Dodd said.

A sea of changes have swept over the garbage business in the last 50 years, and the biggest change has been the Dodd’s early adoption of recycling. After Liz’s husband Dave watched a 20th anniversary special on Earth Day in 1990, he told his wife he knew he had an opportunity to make a difference, and one way or another, they had to start recycling.

www.newtondailynews.com | Friday | July 14, 2017 | 3A

Dodd’s recycling has made a tangible impact on their lives, as well as the lives of their neighbors.

“Recycling everything that doesn’t go in the landfill means something,” Dodd said. “We’re making a difference, we’re more than just garbage men.”

Making customers a priority has been important to the Dodd family since the business started, and Dodd said that’s what sets her business apart from the competition. When she got the invitation to enter the contest, it was her customers who urged her to submit the forms to enter.

Luke Archer has worked for the Dodd’s for nearly two years, but he noticed right away there was something different about their operation. At Dodd’s, he feels like part of the family, instead of

just an employee.

“Liz and Dave have been amazing to work for, they’re some of the best people I’ve ever met,” Archer said.

Archer, a resident of Kellogg, said he wasn’t surprised to find out the Dodd’s were voted Best Garbageman in America. Their enthusiasm and work ethic have trickled down through their employees as well.

“We’re always willing to do the extra small things to make sure a customer is happy,” Archer said. “When I drop a roll-off I’ll do anything I can to get that roll-off where they want it without tearing up our equipment, I want to make sure they’re happy when I leave.”

It’s not just the customers that are happy with the Dodds, their employees love their jobs as well. Archer loves be-

ing outside no matter what the weather, and he’s happy to get home every night, something that never happened in his old job.

Even though everyone always asks him about

the smell, Archer says that’s not the toughest part of the job. The hardest part is watching out for drivers who might not see him or don’t take the time to slow down as they pass him.

fill the seat, potentially at the next council meeting after Aug. 1, but no later than the 60 day notice Sept. 9.

Council will also look to approve a GPS unit for the landfill dozer for the Newton Sanitary Landfill. It has been found that using GPS on equipment at the landfill extends the landfill cell life and reduces equipment costs by providing the operator accurate horizontal and vertical position of the equipment.

RDO Integrated Controls has agreed to sell a demonstration GPS unit to the city for a discounted price

“I’ve ridden on the back of the trash truck too, it’s really not all that bad,” Archer said.

of $17,500.

Also on the agenda, in the ongoing effort to provide assistance in the development the DMACC Maytag Campus, the city is looking to add parking spaces along the west side of the 300 block of West Fourth Street North. The spaces will accommodate and complement the proposed store fronts on the bottom floor of the former Maytag headquarters.

The plan includes 16 new angled parking stalls plus two van accessible ADA compliant parking stalls. TK Concrete Inc. submitted the low bid of $31,595 to complete the project.

Let’s all sing along

So Anyway Dana King

I

know every word to all eight and a half minutes of Don McLean’s “American Pie.” I was nine years old when it was released and I played the 45 vinyl record over and over again on my little purple, suitcase-styled, portable record player.

Isn’t it funny how a person remembers the oddest things?

I can also sing Jim Croce’s “Bad Bad LeRoy Brown” and Barry Manilow’s “Copacabana” without missing a word every time I hear them come on the radio. (I probably should get out more.)

I amaze myself when I sing every word to a song I haven’t heard for 40 years, yet I can’t remember to turn off the eggs I have boiling on the stove until they’ve exploded.

Music was deeply ingrained in my upbringing, having a number of musically gifted and talented family members. My mom always had popular music playing on the stereo console in our living room — everything from Ferrante & Teicher to Engelbert Humperdinck, Bert Bacharach to the Captain and Tennille.

So when a song comes on the radio, I sing. I’m not saying I sing well, but if it’s something I like, I’m on it and if you don’t like it? Well...

Just ask my kids. As I’d be belting out my favorite lyrics, my youngest, Carson, would often ask, ‘mom, who sings this song?’ I knew better than to give him the answer he wanted — he was just setting me up to tell me to let the actual singer sing it then

— so I would always reply ‘me! Can’t you hear me?’

My oldest, Josh, and I often play impromptu games of “Name the Tune.” His repertoire is quite extensive and we can go head-to-head when it comes to naming songs within the first few notes, although I’m better at most material prior to 1990 and he can best me with more current music.

So anyway...

The other day at work I heard a song playing I hadn’t heard for years and it made me giggle. We’ve all done it ... getting the wrong words stuck in our heads. I won’t embarrass myself by mentioning the songs I’ve screwed up, but believe me, when I do, someone invariably calls me out on it.

To date, my most memorable faux pas is to a 1977 song by the Bee Gees.

I’m going to start this by defending myself... I was only 13 years old and falsetto voices can, at times, be

very difficult to understand when you’ve been raised with the baritone vocals of Roger Whittaker.

My siblings and I, although not allowed to see the movie “Saturday Night Fever” because we were too young, did have the soundtrack to the movie. We had those songs down pat... or so we thought. One of our favorites was the song “Bald-headed Woman.” My mom struggled to understand why anyone would write a disco song about a woman with no hair, until she eventually looked at the title on the album cover.

Don’t feel bad if you’re not familiar with it. Neither was anyone else, since it was actually called “More than a Woman.” ... And from that point on, I started paying a bit more attention to the actual story in a song.

After all, if I’m going to karaoke in my car, I’d better get it right.

K-9 names Why aren’t dogs named Shannon anymore?

The bimbo yellow Lab next door was named Shannon. I know this because my entire childhood was spent listening to myriad voices screaming, “Shannon! Get back! Shannon, come! Shannon, heel! Shannon, don’t eat that squirrel! Shannon, dig a hole for that squirrel you just killed!”

I hated Shannon. So did my dog, a Portuguese water dog named Teddy. Shannon and Teddy had nothing in common. Shannon was energetic, friendly and dumb as a dodo. Teddy was smart and moody and demanded you earn his attention. But they both had one thing in common: a normal dog name.

Shannon was one of two dogs named Shannon. In the early ‘90s, their name was basically the Jessica or Jennifer of every fourth-grade classroom. And Teddy, short for Teddybear, was just as common among canines. Two of my best friends had dogs named Teddy; another friend had a dog named Bear.

The other neighborhood pets included Max, Fluffy, Rascal, Ginger, Buddy, Maggie and Kitty. And yes, Kitty was a kitty. Oh, how we mocked Cutie Pie when she came home from the pet store. “Cutie Pie? What kind of dog is named Cutie Pie?” we railed.

A dog ahead of its time, that’s what kind of dog.

Last night, while I was teaching my class on writing for children, one of my students said she wanted to name her main character after her own dog and asked whether I saw a problem with that. I said probably not and asked to hear the dog’s name.

Crisscross Applesauce Lemon Squash Peppermint Floss.

“What?” I asked.

She smiled and repeated, slowly, “Criss. Cross. Apple. Sauce. Lem. Mon. Squash. Pep. Per. Mint. Floss.”

“Right. But what do you call her?”

“CrisscrossAppleSauceLemonSquashPeppermintFloss.”

Of course. No nicknames allowed in the land of weird dog names. And good ol’ Flossy, as I like to call her, is only the latest tongue twister to come out of a long line of loquacious dog owners.

Lately, I have not met a single Shannon or Teddy or Fluffy. In their place have been Moonstruck Cupcake, Thunder Boom Boom, and Twitchy Kevin. I recently met a Boston terrier named Greg and immediately said to the owner, “Wow! A single-syllable dog name!” She looked at me, straight-faced, and said, “It’s short for Gregasaurus ComingThisWay.” Of course it is.

I blame “How I Met Your Mother.” When the characters Lily and Marshall decided to give their son the middle name Wait-for-it, they made full-sentence names into a thing. Sure, Marvin Wait-for-it Eriksen may be a cute fictional on-screen character name, but if I ever have to dog-sit for Cheese-Puffs-AreBetter-Than-Cheez-Doodles or Carolina-Springboard-Loves-Piano-More-Than-Earl, I’m going to need to buy an inhaler to get through saying their names. Also, poor Earl! Who is this Earl? And why does he deserve to be defamed in this way?

At first, I thought the obscure pet names were a Hollywood thing, but then I moved out of Hollywood. So then I thought it was a living-in-the-wild thing, but even my friend in the suburbs of Washington, D.C., has a four-legged loved one named Holly Bo-Bolly McMolly Is Not Tall-ee.

Uncommon names are cool. I have an uncommon name. My kids have uncommon names. My rabbit, Pig, has an uncommon name. But is there really anything so wrong with naming your Chihuahua Sally? Can’t the hipsters do us a solid and take back the names Fluffy and Scruffy just to be ironic? Isn’t that their thing, to trailblaze us back into yesteryear, when things made a tad more sense and pants were a tad too loose? Where, oh where, is the great micro-mustachioed wisdom of the hipster millennial to set us straight from our sentence-structure naming obsession?

Newton Housing Initiative positive example of city’s progress Since it’s inception in 2014, the Newton Housing Initiative has had a flurry of activity bringing a positive change to the downtrodden housing market in the city. With 20 new houses built and sold between 2015 and 2017 and more than 50 blighted homes addressed through the Dangerous and Dilapidated Program, it is easy to call the initiative a success.

To start, $3.65 million in bonds was set aside to support the initiative in an attempt to aggressively jump-start the home construction market in the community.

Prior to the city’s attempt, an entire year went by with no new home construction within Newton.

The program also included a $10,000 cash incentive directed specifically to the buyers of the homes at the time of closing.

The incentive has been a popular marketing tool to attract new citizens to the town and is often praised by outside communities for its innovation.

Home builders incentives are also a part of the program with the city agreeing to reimburse all construction loan interest charges for a period of up to 12 months from the time a building permit is issued, and up to a maximum of $10,000 documented interest reimbursement per home for the first 40 speculative homes. As additional incentives, the Newton Housing

Development Corporation will work with property owners to negotiate for the subordination of

existing lots to builders and the development permit fees would also be waived by the city.

The proof of success is in the results. Of the 20 homes built, approximately half are occupied by new to Newton families and half have school age children.

Also, through the new housing, several families decided to remain in Newton who were planning to leave town.

Developments at Fountain Hills, Fairmeadows North and Cardinal Ridge are a few examples of the positive impact of the housing initiative with more work planned for the future.

Not to be forgotten, the D&D Program has made its own lasting impact on the community. One shining example of the changes is the new Jewel Tea

Court townhome development located east of Skiff Medical Center. Land that formerly housed several blighted

houses was transformed into a “jewel” through the construction of eight high-quality townhomes. Of the eight townhomes, one is sold, one is currently finalizing a sale and four have offers on the table.

The city has also recently sold two multi-lot former D&D properties to be redeveloped into single-family homes and a storage facility.

The next challenge facing the city is identifying new areas to create subdivisions with all available land currently identified. From having no new housing starts less than five years ago, to searching for new land to develop, the Newton Housing Initiative has done its job and then some and it looks to only be getting started.

Club News Chapter K-EN TTT Chapter K-EN of the T.T.T. Society met July 11 at the home of Donna McCoy. Jane Repp served as co-hostess. A short business meeting was conducted by president Val McKee with nine members in attendance. Plans for taking the three camp girls to the YMCA camp Aug. 6 were given, with Marsha Berndt and Donna McCoy serving in those duties.

Barb Taylor shared a 1990 letter she found from a buddy chapter in Missouri. It was decided that Carolyn Hobbs would send them a letter updating them on our chapter since then and ask for news from them as well. News from our state board buddy was read about our needed help with the state convention in 2018. Our chapter will offer taking on the responsibility of printing and packet creation. Val McKee will attend the first planning meeting Sept. 10.

Two camp girls were in attendance. They modeled one of the outfits the group had purchased for them and opened the remaining gifts from the chapter. Refreshments were served.

Gone fishing for summer Making plans for summer getaways with family and friends?

Add fishing to your list. Plan a day trip or bring along fishing gear on your next weekend or camping trip.

The best fishing is early in the morning or later in the evening and after dark. Like anglers, fish adjust to the heat. “Fish will move to deep water to cool off during the brightest, hottest part of the day,” Joe Larscheid, chief of the Iowa Department of Natural Resources Fisheries Bureau said.

Look for fish in the outside edge of weed beds or structure, near shade during the day. Find underwater structure such as brush piles or rock reefs within a lake with the interactive fishing atlas or fish structure maps on the DNR website at iowadnr.gov/ Fishing/Fishing-Maps.

Fish often are suspended in deeper water, just above the thermocline - a midsummer phenomenon many lakes develop creating two layers. Below the thermocline, often 8 to 10 or 12 feet deep, oxygen is nearly nonexistent. Many fish suspend just above the thermocline, where the water is cooler.

“Bluegills may spawn several times in the summer,” advises Larscheid. Look for them in traditional spawning areas in shallow water. “If you are not successful in these areas, try drift fishing in deep water (15-20 feet).”

Largemouth bass and channel catfish will be close to shore.

Look for bass near cover; stumps, wood structure. “Bass and bluegills will use vegetation for cover and shade. It also holds a variety of zooplankton and insects which

attract baitfish.”

“The white bass and wiper bite gets hot when the water heats up,” Larscheid said. “Hot weather is also a good time to catch big channel catfish and largemouth bass.”

White bass are active in the summer in the flood control reservoirs (Coralville, Red Rock, Rathbun and Saylorville). Follow the seagulls to spot white bass.

Calm days are best because the seagulls can see the shad easier and will be feeding on them.

Splashes on the water surface are good signs, too, as the shad leap from the water trying to escape.

Find a great place to fish on the DNR website at fishing.iowadnr.gov, along with the weekly fishing hot spots and tips for catching specific fish species this summer.

Man answers wife’s hurt feelings with angry shouts DEAR ABBY: I have been married for two years, and my husband has three grown children. He was recently planning a getaway with the youngest and included me in the plans. I didn’t want to interfere and suggested that his child might want to spend some one-on-one time with him. I later learned that not only were his other kids going, but their spouses were as well. Everyone was included but me. I felt very hurt to be excluded.

When I shared with him how I felt, his response was that he couldn’t control his kids, but I feel he could have controlled his response. To exclude me was deliberate. When I told him how hurt I was, he got less than an inch from my face and started screaming about MY kids (who love him like a father). It scared me because he was in my face. I have never had a man scream in my face like that before. I don’t know what to do. I was truly terrified. — LOST IN THE EAST DEAR LOST: Your husband may have reacted the way he did out of guilt.

If you haven’t already, tell him that no one has ever spoken to you the way he did and that it terrified you. Tell him that when someone acts that way, the natural conclusion of the person being bullied (which is what he was doing) is to fear the verbal attack will escalate to physical violence.

If he can’t explain calmly why he overreacted when you said you were hurt, then the two of you could use some sessions with a marriage counselor. If he refuses to go, go without him. He was less than honest in not disclosing beforehand that everyone but you would be vacationing together. During some of your counseling sessions, consider discussing healthy ways to disagree and the dynamics of “vacations with the kids” — both his and yours — in the future.

DEAR ABBY: Years before my

dad passed away, he started keeping a notebook he called “Jack’s Doomsday Book.” In it he listed account numbers and balances, names of banks, passwords, locations of documents and other detailed instructions on how to take over his responsibilities if he was incapacitated. He always told Mom and me that if something happened, to find that notebook in which everything was written down.

Mom died first, so when Dad became ill years later, he made sure I had the notebook. I can’t tell you how much easier it made things. I didn’t have to go searching through paperwork to figure out what was what.

I knew the banks I had to go to and what to bring. It was all there, down to the changes he had made after Mom passed. Even our financial adviser was impressed at how easy Dad made everything for us. Everyone should have a doomsday book. — JACK’S GIRL IN LOUISIANA DEAR JACK’S GIRL: I couldn’t agree more. I admire your father’s pragmatism. Too many adults fail to plan ahead for this kind of inevitability, which causes additional problems for survivors at a time when they are trying to cope with their grief. Readers, if you haven’t already done something similar, you should consider it.

1 Black bear reportedly spotted

4 School board member pleads not guilty to assault charge

in southeast Iowa bean field

OSKALOOSA — State officials are testing fur found at the site of a black bear sighting in southeastern Iowa.

The Mahaska County Sheriff ’s Office received a report of a black bear strolling through a soybean field on Wednesday.

Officials were not able to find a bear, but officials with the Iowa Department of Natural Resources collected fur samples believed to belong to a black bear for testing.

Officials say there have been multiple bear sightings reported in the area in recent weeks.

KEOKUK — A southeast Iowa school board member has pleaded not guilty to a charge of domestic abuse assault. The written plea and a demand for a jury trial were electronically filed Wednesday in Lee County for 40-year-old Carlita “Carrie” Steele.

She’s a school board member for the Keokuk Community School District. Steele’s attorney, Curtis Dial, said Thursday that he’ll be filing a motion to dismiss the case. A criminal complaint says Steele’s husband, Christopher, told officers that his wife had threatened to shoot him and herself Tuesday night.

Kidnapper gets 2 years for witness tampering, harassment OTTUMWA — A man awaiting sentencing for kidnapping an Ottumwa woman has been sentenced for witness tampering and harassment.

Online court records show 24-year-old Joel Herrarte Jr. pleaded guilty Monday and was given two years for each crime, to be run at the same time and at the same time of his pending prison sentence for kidnapping. His kidnapping sentencing is scheduled for Aug. 7.

The records also say Herrarte was fined $625 for the witness tampering and for the harassment.

2 City ending bus service less than year after it started NORTH LIBERTY — North Liberty officials have decided to end the municipal transit service less than a year after it began. The city council had wanted to provide transit for senior citizens and people with disabilities, but the service has averaged less than one person a day since starting in October.

Officials plan to devise a new transit strategy to reach more residents.

5 Man seeks new trial location for Dubuque slaying case

DUBUQUE — Attorneys are seeking a new trial location for a man accused of killing a woman in Dubuque.

Court records say 21-year-old Helmon Betwell has pleaded not guilty to murder, sexual assault and burglary charges. Prosecutors say he attacked 66-year-old Nancy Krapfl on Sept. 1, 2015, as she was walking in Dubuque. His trial is set to begin Sept. 12.

5 in Iowa charged as part of nationwide opioid crackdown DES MOINES (AP) — Five people in Iowa are among more than 400 people charged with taking part in health care fraud and opioid scams that federal prosecutors say totaled $1.3 billion in false billing across the country.

U.S. Attorney Kevin VanderSchel in the Southern District of Iowa says the five were indicted in two schemes involving the distribution of opioids. He says 47-year-old Shawne Marie Widener, of Hamburg, is charged with multiple counts of possession with intent to distribute hydrocodone and oxycodone.

Charged with conspiracy and distribution of the drugs are 31-year-old Mark Edward May; 32-year-old Chiann May Jones; 37-year-old Clara Ann Milks; and 40-year-old Jeremiah Jones, all of Missouri Valley.

Federal public defender Michael Lee Smart said Thursday that it’s too early to comment on how the Iowa defendants will plead.

Prosecutor agrees to drop sexting charges against Iowa teen DES MOINES (AP) — A county prosecutor in Iowa who threatened to charge a 14-year-old girl with sexual exploitation of a minor after she sent suggestive photos of herself to a boy at school agreed Thursday to drop the case after the girl’s family sued him for violating her constitutional rights to free speech and equal protection.

The girl’s parents, who sought to keep their names confidential to protect her identity, released a statement through the American Civil Liberties Union of Iowa, which represented the family in the lawsuit, saying Marion County Attorney Ed Bull had

misused his position of authority to bully their daughter and impose “his own sexist moral standards” on her.

“We tried to work with him, but he wouldn’t budge and insisted that our daughter admit guilt to a crime that she didn’t commit,” they said. “It’s frightening to see the government step in with this sort of dangerous overreach and presume to play the role of parent.”

Bull had told the girl, identified only as Nancy Doe, that to avoid prosecution and a possible prison sentence she must sign an admission of guilt; enroll in a pre-trial diversion program

involving community service; attend classes intended to teach teens not to engage in “sexting” and have no access to her phone or laptop for a set period of time.

The family’s lawsuit filed November in federal court in Des Moines asked a judge to stop Bull from filing criminal charges against her.

Rita Bettis, the ACLU of Iowa legal director, said her organization challenged Bull’s actions on constitutional free speech and equal protection grounds, and sought to have the court affirm the parents’ fundamental right to raise their child without undue interference from the state.

“As a policy matter, it’s bewildering that a county attorney would threaten to put a child in jail or prison or place her on the sex offender registry for taking a picture of herself,” Bettis said.

Attorneys representing the girl and Bull filed an agreement to dismiss the case Thursday. The ACLU said the county agreed to pay $40,000 in attorney fees.

Bull was unrepentant.

“As county attorney, it is my job to pursue justice. Nothing can or will change that,” he said.

“I will put the ACLU’s dismissal papers in my file and go right back to work serving my community.”

Iowa universities see drop in international enrollment IOWA CITY (AP) — Some university officials in Iowa say international student enrollment has fallen at the state’s three public universities this year due to immigration concerns raised during the presidential election.

Iowa State University, the University of Iowa and the University of Northern Iowa are expecting a dip of a few hundred students spread among them in total. Officials said a prolonged decline

would negatively affect the universities culturally and financially.

“The international students and scholars are very much a part of this university,” said Krista McCallum Beatty, director of the International Students and Scholars Office at ISU. “They enrich the academic experience, the campus and the community.”

International students pay out-of-state tuition, which is more expensive than resident

students’ tuition. The drop in enrollment comes as the three universities have lost $30 million in state funding over the last year.

While many schools in the Midwest have seen decreasing numbers of international students, some universities on the coasts have seen increases, said Katharine Suski, admissions director at ISU. UI and ISU officials said the exact cause of the decrease is unknown, but that it’s more

likely related to political discussion about immigration during the election than the travel bans issued by the President Donald Trump’s administration.

Lee Seedorff, a senior associate director of UI International Student and Scholar Services, said immigration concerns occurred around the same time many students filled out college applications. Most students would’ve already submitted their applications for

the fall before the travel bans were issued, she said.

UNI spokesman Scott Ketelsen said the school’s overall acceptance numbers are down because of increased competition from other universities and “global uncertainty.” The school’s international freshman applications and admissions saw a slight increase, but that fewer students accepted offers, he said. That number might increase with some late action enrolling, Ketelsen said.

Newton Daily News & Jasper County Advertiser

By Diane Krieger Spivak If you’re buying a home for the first time, it’s important to get pre-approval for your mortgage.

Obtaining pre-approval allows you to know just how much home you can realistically afford, saving you time, as well as disappointment if you find out your dream home is out of financial reach.

Before you do anything else, access your free credit report to dispute any errors before you start collecting pre-approval documents. Then: • Gather your (and anyone else applying for the mortgage) last two years of tax returns and proof of income (W2s or pay stubs)—or your year-to-date profit and loss statement if self-employed. • Make sure you have down payment money and closing money available in your bank account. • If the down payment and closing money were a gift, be ready to explain it. • If you rent, put together the last 12 months of proof (like check copies and money order receipts) showing you’ve been on time with rent payments.

SM-NE5144101-0714

Also ask your landlord for a written referral. • Gather two forms of government identification, such as a driver’s license and passport. Also have other personal paperwork, like copies of divorce papers, if applicable. • Provide proof of regular income from all forms including Social Security, child support or government assistance. Gather pay stubs, or, if self-employed, profit-and-loss statements. • Provide proof of account balances for IRAs and retirement accounts. • Disclose money held in the stock market. • Include proof of other property you own. • Disclose past financial issues like bankruptcy. Provide a written explanation and steps you have taken to correct your situation. • Keep your credit score healthy. Do not: Apply for new credit, take on new debts or make large purchases, cancel any current credit accounts or ask a creditor to lower your limit. If you apply for a mortgage loan with an excellent credit score and the score goes down during the pre-approval or mortgage process, you may not qualify for the loan.

Cardiac Colfax-Mingo rallies for walk-off win

By Troy Hyde Newton Daily News BUSSEY — Colfax-Mingo coach Greer Milledge knew he shouldn’t have pitched to Twin Cedars standout Trace Embray with the bases loaded in the fourth inning with his team leading 6-3.

That decision could have haunted Milledge this entire offseason. It could have been the decision that ended the Tigerhawks’ season.

Instead, Colfax-Mingo laughed it off, went back to work and rallied for an 8-7, eight-inning victory Thursday during a Class 1A District 11 semifinal game at Twin Cedars High School.

“This game just shows that this team doesn’t give up,” Milledge said. “I should have walked (Embray) in the fourth. That was a mistake.

No doubt. I am not sure what happens if I do walk him, but I should have just walked him even though the bases were loaded.”

Embray had the Sabers’ only two hits of the game, but both were home runs that drove in all seven runs against Tigerhawk starter Trystin Ross.

Juniors Alex Lewis and Jonathan Jacobs combined to allow no runs and no hits with 11 strikeouts in the final 4 2/3 innings. They gave the Tigerhawks a chance to rally when they struck out the side in the fifth, seventh and eighth innings.

two don’t pitch the way they pitched tonight,” Milledge said. “They didn’t allow a hit from the fifth inning on.

“Alex did a good job and did everything I asked him to do. Jonathan came in there late and just slammed the door shut.”

Lewis started the game at

third base and recorded seven outs on the mound despite playing under the weather.

Prior to the game, the only items Lewis consumed were water and saltine crackers.

He had a package of skittles during the game.

“I just tried to do whatever I could to help this team win,”

Lewis said. “I knew I couldn’t let them score any more runs to give us a chance.”

The extra-inning victory sends the Tigerhawks (18-5) to the district championship game against Moravia at 7 p.m. Saturday.

The Mohawks downed Lynnville-Sully, 10-6, in the

first semifinal game of the night.

Ross (7-1) got off to a rocky start when he hit the first batter he faced and put two runners on with a walk. Embray made it 3-0 when he crushed a 3-1 pitch to left field.

Errors, free bases plague Hawks in season-ending loss to Moravia

By Troy Hyde Newton Daily News

Troy Hyde/Daily News Lynnville-Sully senior Caden Dunsbergen fights back his emotions after the Hawks’ baseball team lost 10-6 to Moravia in the Class 1A District 11 semifinal in Bussey on Thursday.

Manning to play in Shrine Bowl W hen he walked off the football field at Newton’s H. A. Lynn Stadium on Friday, Oct. 21, Caden Manning believed his high school football career was finished. He was ready to move on, and did by signing to play college football at Ellsworth Community College.

But wait ... a few weeks ago, the Newton High 2017 graduManning ate was invited to play in the 2017 Iowa Shrine Bowl. He accepted the invitation. Manning has one more high school football game to play.

Manning is the first Newton High player to be honored as a Shrine Bowl participant since Derrick Hurt in 2013.

Before Hurt, Brooks Skaggs was the

The Pressbox Jocelyn Sheets last Newton player in the 2007 game.

Manning joins two other area graduated seniors on the South all-star squad for the 45th Annual Iowa Shrine Bowl. The all-star game is at 4 p.m. July 29 in the UNI Dome in Cedar Falls.

The two other area players are Prairie City-Monroe’s Luke Greiner and Collins-Maxwell/Baxter’s Blake Coughenhour. Coughenhour was recently asked to play much like Manning.

“Caden has been a great representative of our school and our programs.

This is a great honor for him,” Newton coach Ed Ergenbright said. “He’s a really solid student, a great teammate and just all of the things you’d hope your own son would be.”

Manning is a 6-foot-3-inch, 275-pound offensive lineman. Ergenbright said Manning played tackle, guard and center in his years as a Newton High Cardinal. He was a three-year starter for Newton.

“I’m not sure where Coach Patter-

BUSSEY — The Lynnville-Sully baseball team didn’t win its first conference title since 2001 by walking a bunch of batters on the mound and committing too many errors in the field.

Unfortunately for the Hawks, they did those things in a season-ending loss to Moravia on Thursday during Class 1A District 11 semifinal action at Twin Cedars High School.

Three Lynnville-Sully pitchers combined to walk 10 batters and the Hawk defense committed four errors during a 10-6 loss to the Mohawks.

“We just struggled to get the ball across the plate and to make defensive plays, but we kept battling,” Lynnville-Sully coach Bob Scandridge said.

“That’s what I am most proud of. I am not going to let this game dictate how our season went. The kids still had a son will play him on the offensive line — tackle or guard,” Ergenbright said.

“Caden is big and strong with quick feet. He’s football IQ is high. We’re proud to see him playing in the Shrine Bowl.”

Norwalk’s Paul Patterson is the head coach for the Shrine Bowl South squad. Also on the coaching staff are Dean Lansman of Greene County, Todd Bohlen of Belle Plaine, Brad Zelenovich of Southeast Polk, Cody Hackett of West Marshall and Richard Kacmarynski of Pella Christian.

Players report to Shrine Bowl squad camps on July 23 in Cedar Falls.

Manning was a captain for the Newton Cardinal football team this season.

He helped guide the Cardinals to a 6-3 overall mark playing a Class 4A schedule.

Newton went 2-3 in 4A district play, finishing third just out of the playoffs.

Manning earned 4A All-District 4 First-Team honors as an offensive lineman. He played a key role up front to help Newton lead District 4 in rushing — 2,472 yards on 429 rush attempts, which is a 5.8-yard per carry average.

Valley rushed for 2,171 yards on 333 carries (6.5 average).

fantastic season.”

Scandridge was forced to say goodbye to a strong group of seniors earlier than he had hoped to. Caden Dunsbergen, Isaac Collins and Tyler Van Zante were part of a five-win season just five years ago. They said goodbye to the program with a conference title this season.

“It’s the sudden stop at the end that hurts. This year is no different,” Scandridge said. “I have been a part of this a lot, but it doesn’t make it any easier.

I will miss these kids. They put a lot into the program. We have gotten better each year the last four years.”

The Hawks fell behind early after Moravia plated two runs in the bottom of the first inning. Van Zante started on the mound and walked the first two batters he faced. The Mohawks scored two runs on one hit, three walks and two Hawk errors.

HAWKS | 2B Manning and the Cardinals won the final game of his NHS career. The Cardinals beat Indianola, 45-28, on Senior Night.

The motto of the all-star football Shrine Bowl games everywhere is “Strong legs run that weak legs may walk.”

Manning will represent himself, Newton High School and the Newton community well in not just the football game, but all the special activities involved with the experience. The players meet patients and staff from Shriners Hospitals.

The banner of Newton Cardinal Pride will be held high by Manning as it has been by past NHS players in the Iowa Shrine Bowl.

Just a personal note: I’m taking a week off, going home to Kansas. I know about Shrine Bowls because Kansas also has one.

I’m going to do a bit of relaxing and fishing with my Dad next week. To hear him tell it, he has been pulling some big ones out of the family pond.

We’ll see. Stay cool. I’ll see you in a week.

Venus Williams reaches 9th Wimbledon final LONDON (AP) — All these years later, Wimbledon still brings out the best in Venus Williams.

With her latest display of gutsy serving and big hitting, Williams beat Johanna Konta 6-4, 6-2 on Thursday to reach her ninth title match at the All England Club and first since 2009.

At 37, Williams is the oldest Wimbledon finalist since Martina Navratilova was the 1994 runner-up at that age.

Williams also stopped Konta’s bid to become the first woman from Britain in 40 years to win the country’s Grand Slam tournament.

“I couldn’t have asked for more, but I’ll ask for a little more.

One more win would be amazing,” Williams said. “It won’t be a given, but I’m going to Williams give it my all.”

She will be seeking her sixth Wimbledon championship and eighth Grand Slam singles trophy overall. Her most recent came in 2008, when she defeated her younger sister, Serena, for the title at the All

England Club. A year later, she lost the final to Serena.

In the time since, Williams revealed that she was diagnosed with Sjogren’s syndrome, which can sap energy and cause joint pain. As time went on, there were questions about whether she might retire, especially after a half-dozen first-round losses at major tournaments. But she kept on going, and lately has returned to winning.

Her resurgence began in earnest at Wimbledon a year ago, when she made it to the semifinals. Then, at the Australian Open in January, Wil-

liams reached the final, where she lost to — yes, you guessed it — her sister. Serena is off the tour for the rest of this year because she is pregnant.

“I missed her so much before this match. And I was like, ‘I just wish she was here.’ And I was like, ‘I wish she could do this for me,’” Williams said with a laugh. “And I was like, ‘No, this time you have to do it for yourself.’ So here we are.”

On Saturday, the 10th-seeded American will participate in her second Grand Slam final of the season, this time against 14th-seeded Garbine Muguruza of Spain.

Colfax-Mingo Continued from Page 1B The Tigerhawks rallied with a fiverun second to take a 5-3 lead. Ross started the rally with a one-out single and then his courtesy runner, sophomore Isaac Clouse, scored on Lewis’ RBI double.

Senior Jimmy Camp was hit by a pitch before freshman Trinity Schroeder brought home Lewis with an RBI single. Sophomore Zarek Hill made it 5-3 when he laced a two-run double to the gap in left-center field.

Colfax-Mingo tacked on another run in the third. Jacobs began the frame with an infield single and then moved up a base on a Ross sacrifice bunt. With two outs, freshman Brady Berkey walked and then an error on a ground ball by Camp allowed Jacobs to score.

Ross got through the second and third innings with no damage against Twin Cedars. But in the fourth, the Sabers grabbed the lead against the Tigerhawk freshman.

Ross hit Austin Test to open the frame and then walked Daniel Beary.

A fielder’s choice ground ball got Ross one out, but he walked Kade Dunkin to load the bases.

After a visit to the mound, Milledge decided to allow Ross to pitch to Embray. That proved to be a mistake as Embray smoked the first pitch he saw well over the fence in left field. The grand slam made it 7-6 in favor of the Sabers (17-11).

“The guys laughed off the hit,” Milledge said. “There’s nothing you can do about a ball hit that hard. We were able to shake that off, and we would not have done that in the past.”

Troy Hyde/Daily News Colfax-Mingo junior Jonathan Jacobs, right, applies the tag to Twin Cedars’ Jake Knox at second base during the Tigerhawks’ 8-7, eight-inning win over the Sabers in Bussey on Thursday. Knox was called safe on the play.

Colfax-Mingo was down to its final three outs. Senior Adam Teed and Jacobs singled to start the seventh. Both runners moved up a base on a wild pitch and then Lewis loaded the bases with a one-out walk.

Before Berkey grounded out and Camp struck out to end the inning, Teed scored on a wild pitch to force extra innings.

That’s when Jacobs made sure the Sabers stayed off the scoreboard. He came into the game with two outs in the seventh and struck out Colton Spaur to end the inning. Jacobs struck out the side to keep the game tied in the eighth.

Needing just one run, Schroeder started the inning with an infield single. Junior Misha Seebeck and Teed were both hit by pitches to load the bases with one out.

Jacobs grounded into a fielder’s

choice as Schroeder was thrown out at home.

With two outs, a wild pitch by Ben Rowley allowed Seebeck to sprint home for the walk-off win.

“I was just hoping for a hit or anything,” Seebeck said. “I needed to find a way to score the run, and I was able to do my job.”

Ross started on the mound and allowed seven earned runs on two hits with four strikeouts, six walks and three hit by pitches in 3 1/3 innings.

Lewis walked one and hit one but struck out seven and didn’t allow a hit in 3 1/3 innings. Jacobs (5-0) got the win after allowing no runs on no hits with four strikeouts in 1 1/3 innings.

“Their performances on the mound were incredible,” Seebeck said of teammates Lewis and Jacobs. “That’s exactly what we needed. We trusted them to get the job done, and they did it. Ear-

MLB STANDINGS

Hawks Continued from Page 1B After Lynnville-Sully stranded a pair of runners on base in the first, the Hawks (16-8) closed within one run in the second. Corbin James reached on an error and then scored on another Mohawk error.

The Hawks left the bases loaded, trailing 2-1.

After Van Zante got threw the second inning with no damage, Moravia added to its lead in the third with a pair of runs. The Mohawks recorded back-to-back singles with one out and then scored on another Hawk error.

“We put ourselves in a hole, and they just digging and clawing their way back into it,” Scandridge said. “And if you are going to be a man, that’s what you do. Sometimes life is tough like this. But I never questioned their heart.”

The heart showed up in the fourth when L-S tied the game with a trio of runs. Collins started the frame with a single and then Dunsbergen walked. Junior Carson Dunsbergen singled to load the bases before an RBI walk by junior Elijah Collins made it 4-2.

Van Zante closed the gap to one with an RBI single and then freshman Bray Noun Harder tied the game with an RBI fielder’s choice.

“I told the kids I was proud of them because we didn’t bring our best game over here today and we made some mistakes, but they battled and came back from an early hole,” Scandridge said.

The Hawks were unable to get over the hump against the Mohawks. The offense wasn’t the issue. They scored six runs on nine hits but stranded nine runners on base.

Moravia (22-7) came right back after the Hawks’ big inning with big inning of its own.

The Mohawks sent nine batters to the plate and scored four runs on just one hit. Van Zante was chased on the mound in favor of junior Josh Dunsbergen, but the duo walked four in the frame and the defense committed another error.

Van Zante (5-4) wound up taking the loss on the mound after allowing six runs — three earned — on five hits with five walks and one strikeout in three innings.

lier in the season, we probably would have folded after they took the lead.”

Lewis was taken out after 40 pitches because Milledge wants to possibly use him in the district championship game Saturday. Jacobs, who threw less than 40 pitches, will get the start in Colfax-Mingo’s biggest game in several years against the champions of the Bluegrass Conference.

“I want the ball for that game,” Jacobs said. “I just want to throw strikes and let my defense make plays behind me. “This game tonight showed our colors. We just don’t quit.”

Colfax-Mingo will take a four-game winning streak into the district title game. The only pitcher not available to throw in that game for the Tigerhawks is Ross.

Troy Hyde/Daily News Lynnville-Sully senior Tyler Van Zante puts the ball in play during the Hawks’ 10-6 loss to Moravia in the Class 1A District 11 semifinals in Bussey on Thursday.

“The walks are not like Tyler, but some of that may have been the amount of time he had off. He hadn’t pitched in over a week,” Scandridge said. “He also got his hand stepped on tonight trying to break up a double play. His hand is swollen pretty bad.”

“He tried to battle through it. I probably should have taken him out sooner.”

Josh Dunsbergen threw the next 1 2/3 innings, allowing two earned runs on no hits but had five walks. Freshman Blaize Kuhlmann tossed the final 1 1/3 innings and surrendered two earned runs on two hits with no walks and one strikeout.

Lynnville-Sully gave itself a chance at a late-inning rally with a pair of runs in the fifth.

Josh Dunsbergen led off the frame with a bunt single, and he moved up a base following a one-out walk by Kuhlmann.

Caden Dunsbergen brought the Hawks within 8-5 with an RBI single and then Kuhlmann scored on a wild pitch.

Unfortunately, Moravia came right back with two runs in the bottom of the sixth inning. The Mohawks closed the door with two runs on two hits.

Caden Dunsbergen, Josh Dunsbergen and James all had two hits apiece. Caden Dunsbergen and Josh Dunsbergen both walked once, too.

Astrograph

Neptune’s retrograde resonance with the watery Pisces moon reminds us that while a reasonable series of moves can take you from Point A to Point B, an unreasonable one will take you past the alphabet, through the numeric system and beyond the emoji landscape, too. How far do you want to go with that wild imagination?

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (July 14). You’re the ringleader of this circus with an extraordinary instinct for coming up with what’s next in the grand show. Since you see the big picture with clarity, tend to broad lines and let someone else do the detail work. You’ll

be adored more than ever in 2018. Just soak it up. Invest and hold on in September.

Libra and Taurus adore you.

Your lucky numbers are: 5, 12, 23, 27 and 14.

ARIES (March 21-April 19).

Taking care of your soul is important work, and you’re not the only one responsible for it, either. The ones you love and those who love you will pitch in with gusto.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Sure, some mistakes are avoidable. But if you didn’t or couldn’t, well, it’s a useless regret. Anyway, mistakes are for the adventurous, a sign that you’re trying something new.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

The value of persistence cannot be underestimated today.

Every time you are knocked down, get up and try and do and do and try. This is the only way to break through.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Your imagination is so powerful that it will not only take you from here to there; it will take you beyond -- to the “theres” that are brought into existence the moment you envision them.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). It’s OK not to be right very often.

Those who need to be right all of the time are living in a very small bubble of their own certainty. What scale do you choose? Maybe it really is a

small world, but the universe is massive.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

Mastery demands full attention. The barrier between you and the mastery you seek is atmospheric. There are others who need your attention. To get to the next level, go where there is no competition for your attention.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

You don’t always know the thing you do that gives value to another person. But once it happens, and that value is exchanged, you’ll be onto yet another one of your talents.

This one is worth cultivating further.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

You experience your thoughts

and feelings as separate from the rest, and yet you are in, of and all about the rest. There is no getting around it. You are part of this whole thing and this whole thing is part of you.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Any chance to widen your circle of compassion will be wonderful for you. Yes, it’s true that it won’t always feel nice. Uncomfortable things will happen in the name of diversity, but diversity always makes us better.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’ve exhausted a lot of the excitement supply of your own vicinity. Back to the drawing board. You’ll be surprised at what you can see when you ask your mind to come up with a preview of coming attrac-

tions.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

Every difficulty is an opportunity. No one ever grew up big, strong and wise by having what they needed handed to them on a silver platter. The best people work at it.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

If the enemy is within (and the most formidable enemies always are) then liberating yourself from yourself is the warrior-like task that will both free and alter you.
