Pugel received 82.17 percent of the vote in Jasper County, compared to his opponent Joe Riding’s 9.37 percent, an overwhelming majority. Residents surveyed in exit polls Pugel backed Pugel, insisting DMACC needed local representation.

A Newton man facing multiple charges including vehicular homicide and first-degree burglary turned himself into authorities on Tuesday after another warrant for his arrest was issued.

Alex M. Sp ange nbu rg , 24, was taken Spangenburg into custody at 9:50 p.m. at the Jasper County Sheriff ’s Office after a judge revoked his bond and issued a warrant for his arrest. He is now being held without bond and is scheduled for another court appearance Monday.

Spangenburg was most recently was arrested on Friday for public intoxication after authorities were called about a man walking down the street and yelling at children. He is also facing charges from an July 27 incident in Monroe where he allegedly followed a vehicle and punched the driver twice in the face in an attempt to force his way in. Previously, Spangenburg was charged with vehicular homicide for the October 2016 death of Bret Rice.

Spangenburg was the driver of a motorcycle which crashed at West Fourth Street South and South 15th Avenue West near Maytag Park, killing his passenger, Rice. Newton police said Spangenburg’s BAC was more than .163 at the time of the crash. An Oct. 25 jury trial is currently scheduled.

Lawmakers celebrate DEC passage Bill helps fight drug problems in Jasper County

By David Dolmage Newton Daily News Anyone who’s seen “Schoolhouse Rock!” knows it’s not easy for a bill to become a law. It should come as no surprise that legislators and county officials took time out of their busy schedules to celebrate the passage of Drug Endangered Children legislation Tuesday.

The legislation, which passed this past legislative session, has brought changes to the way DHS

officials investigate child abuse claims. Now, when DHS employees discover evidence of hard drug use, such as amphetamines, heroin or cocaine during family assessments, they can turn that information over to law enforcement. Previously, the only option available to DHS employees was to recommend the parents seek treatment. Until 2014, all hard drug abuse allegations were treated as child abuse assessments. The law changed when the

state enacted differential response, which created two separate pathways for assessing child abuse.

Under the child abuse pathway, law enforcement, the courts and the Iowa Department of Human Services work together. The cases are treated more urgently, and the investigation is much stronger. Children can be removed from the home if necessary. Jasper County First Assistant County Attorney Scott Nicholson said by treating drug use as a child abuse investigation DHS has put more resources at their disposal. The timeframe for investigations

Today in History

WEATHER FORECAST

Today is Wednesday, Sept. 13, the 256th day of 2017. There are 109 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On Sept. 13, 1788, the Congress of the Confederation authorized the first national election, and declared New York City the temporary national capital.

On this date: In 1911, the song “Oh, You Beautiful Doll,� a romantic rag by Nat D. Ayer and Seymour Brown, was first published by Jerome H. Remick & Co. In 1923, Miguel Primo de Rivera, the captain general of Catalonia, seized power in Spain.

In 1948, Republican Margaret Chase Smith of Maine was elected to the U.S. Senate; she became the first woman to serve in both houses of Congress.

In 1962, Mississippi Gov. Ross Barnett rejected the U.S. Supreme Court’s order for the University of Mississippi to admit James Meredith, a black student, declaring in a televised address, “We will not drink from the cup of genocide.�

In 1971, a four-day inmates’ rebellion at the Attica Correctional Facility in western New York ended as police and guards stormed the prison; the ordeal and final assault claimed the lives of 32 inmates and 11 hostages.

In 1977, conductor Leopold Stokowski died in Hampshire, England, at age 95.

In 1989, Fay Vincent was elected commissioner of Major League Baseball, succeeding the late A. Bartlett Giamatti.

In 1997, funeral services were held in Calcutta, India, for Nobel peace laureate Mother Teresa.

In 2002, the earliest known online use of the term “selfie� (a photographic self-portrait, usually taken with a smartphone) occurred on an Australian Broadcasting Corp. website forum; it came from a man named Nathan Hope, who denied coining the term, saying it was “common slang.�

Ten years ago: President George W. Bush, defending an unpopular war, ordered gradual reductions in U.S. forces in Iraq and said in a televised address, “The more successful we are, the more American troops can return home.� Abdul-Sattar Abu Risha, the most prominent figure in a U.S.-backed revolt of Sunni sheiks against al-Qaida in Iraq, was killed by a bomb planted near his home in Anbar province.

Five years ago: Chanting “death to America,� hundreds of protesters angered by an anti-Islam film stormed the U.S. Embassy compound in Yemen’s capital and burned the American flag. New York City’s Board of Health passed a ban on the sale of big sodas and other sugary drinks, limiting the size sold at restaurants, concession stands and other eateries to 16 ounces.

One year ago: Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump rolled out a plan aimed at making child care more affordable, guaranteeing new mothers six weeks of paid maternity leave and suggesting new incentives for employees to provide their workers childcare during a speech in Aston, Pennsylvania. Former Israeli President Shimon Peres, 93, suffered a major stroke (he died 15 days later).

A bit of Emmy drama: Which nominee will be named Best Drama?

NEW YORK (AP) — Year after year, too many Emmy categories are laden with expected and oft-repeated winners. No drama then, when the envelope is torn.

But there is drama ahead in the drama categories that will be presented Sunday night.

Four of the seven nominated drama series are new on the scene. Consequently at least half of the Best Drama Actress, Actor and Supporting Actor nominees come from freshman shows, as do no fewer than five of the six Best Supporting Actress drama nominees.

No wonder the Best Drama field has confounded odds-makers.

Any one of those nominees could take home the trophy.

Consider the wide range of contenders: — “Better Call Saul.�

On basic cable (AMC), with its third consecutive Best Drama nomination, yet thus far no Emmy wins in any category. — “Westworld.� On premium cable (HBO).

Its first year in contention. — “The Handmaid’s Tale.� On a streaming channel (Hulu). Its first

shut out of this category for years. (CBS’ “The Good Wife� was these broadcasters’ last drama series to be nominated, in 2011, and ABC’s “Lost� was the last to win, way back in 2005.)

Tom O’Neil, author of “The Emmys� reference book and editor of Gold Derby, an awards handicapping website, predicts “Stranger Things� will take the prize, but in the same breath he acknowledges that show is too young-skewing and too “genre� to be an Emmy slam-dunk. The drama category, he sums up, is “wide open. You could make a compelling argu-

ment for all seven nominees.�

But let’s set aside for a moment who will win, and focus on what these nominees say about TV today. For starters, more than half of the field come from streaming channels, a distribution system that wasn’t represented by the Emmys until “House of Cards� claimed three statuettes in 2013.

Both premium and basic cable are also represented. (And it’s fun to recall that, until 1988, Emmy didn’t even recognize cable shows.)

And as the category’s biggest surprise, broadcast TV, which once had the Emmys all to itself, has pulled an upset by a network denied a drama-series win for 14 years.

Another oddity about the Best Drama field this year: Here, at least, Emmy voters have kicked the habit of picking the same series time and again.

(Consider the Best Comedy category, where “Veep� has been nominated yearly since its 2012 premiere and won twice — so far.)

The last time as many as half the drama field was newcomers happened more than 30 years ago.

FNNB Bank shares three important things to know about commercial loans SPONSORED BY

Most people are familiar with mortgage loans, but how do they differ from commercial loans?

Commercial real estate loans are obtained for funding businesses such as multifamily apartment properties, office buildings, retail centers and restaurants. These types of loans can also be used to start up a new company, purchase new equipment, perform repairs or fund new construction.

These types of mortgages vary from residential home mortgages.

There are three important facts to know when you begin the process of obtaining a commercial loan.

1. When an application for a home mortgage is reviewed, the loan officer focuses on credit history and personal income. Obtaining a commercial loan requires more than a strong credit history and financials.

Although these two areas still apply for commercial loans, the lenders also take into consideration the condition of the property and its capability to service the loan along with day-to-day operations.

said. “DMACC is in Newton, not Altoona.”

This is the first time that Pugel, a 20-year veteran of the DMACC board, has faced a challenger. Jennifer Pryke, a Newton resident who is a special education teacher at Lynnville-Sully High School also appeared on the ballot but had withdrawn her name before the election and thrown her support behind Pu-

3. The terms of a commercial loan are different from a single-family, owner occupied property.

With a commercial loan, you will need between 20 and 25 percent down.

Unlike a traditional 30-year fixed mortgage, you may also have to select a 3, 5 or 7-year adjustable rate option.

Commercial loans can also require a minimum loan amount.

DEC Continued from Page 1A This isn’t the first time legislators have looked at this issue. A 2016 bill that failed to pass was not supported by DHS. The work group’s new report, which is trimmed back in comparison to last year’s proposal, is supported by DHS. Getting the law passed required rewriting the entire code section, and several members of the Iowa legislature worked together on the process. Rep. Greg Heartsill, R-Columbia, and Sen. Chaz Allen, D-Newton co-sponsored the bill. On Tuesday Allen said while the process to get the law changed was lengthy, the legislation was critical to protect children.

“It made sense to me,” Allen said. “We don’t want to have kids in houses with drugs, we want to get them out of there and get the parents some help.”

Nicholson stressed cooperation between agencies is a critical element in the fight to protect children in Jasper County. Before the DEC team of Jasper County formed in 2007, DHS and the drug task force did not cooperate effectively, Nicholson said. Former Jasper County Attorney Steve Johnson drafted an agreement that allowed the entities to share information. As a result, relationships improved.

In its 10th year of existence, the DEC board has more than 20 members from diverse backgrounds. Probation officers, DHS employees, a school resource officer, a chief of police, a victims services coordinator, nurses from a children’s hospital, a doctor and others make up the board.

A member of the DEC taskforce since 2010, Sgt. Chad Plowman with the Newton Police Department said keeping law enforcement in the loop helps keep kids safe. As police officers begin to see signs of second generation drug users in Jasper County Plowman said it’s more important than ever to create safe havens for local children.

“We’re more involved now, we’re able to focus on what’s best for the kids, and it’s an opportunity for us to put kids in a safe place,” Plowman said.

gel. An instrumental part of the deal that saw the former Maytag facilities donated to the Newton DMACC campus, Pugel is also president of the DMACC board.

As the election results were announced, Pugel said it felt good to know the Newton community was behind him. He’ll remain president of the board, and he pledged he’d continue to work toward growing DMACC in Newton and adding new programming to the local campus.

“I want to continue to build on the success that we’ve had,” Pugel said. “People want someone who’s more local, and more rural, and that means a lot to me.”

Pugel’s influence on bringing DMACC to Newton was enough to get Marty Hoffert’s vote.

By voting for Pugel, Hoffert hopes Pugel can help Newton’s DMACC campus continue to grow.

He also stressed it was important to have a local candidate, who can represent Newton and Newton’s interests first.

“The other candidate isn’t from Newton, we don’t want voters from Polk County overrunning our interests,” Hoffert said. “We want things to grow and grow and grow here, and to keep bringing more things to Newton.”

DMACC’s District 5, also includes Polk County, where support for Riding, a resident of Altoona was highest. In Polk County, Riding collected 69.87 percent of the vote, only 14.64 percent of voters gave Pugel the nod.

In Marion County, Pugel beat Riding handily, 87 to 43, to capture 47.8 percent of the vote. All told, Pugel garnered 1,227 votes to Riding’s 825.

After meeting with a Kiwanis Club in Altoona Tuesday morning and then attending a Rotary event in Newton, Pugel said he felt confident about his chances as residents headed to the polls.

It wasn’t until he checked the numbers in Polk County he started to feel a twinge of doubt. When reached by phone Tuesday night and informed that he’d won, Pugel was elated.

“If that’s it I feel pretty good about it,” Pugel said.

Poll worker Ellen Schumann said the turnout from voters was higher than she’d expected.

At 5 p.m. more than 500 residents had voted in the election, and with polls set to close at 8 p.m. residents were will streaming in to cast their votes.

Isn’t it ironic?

I

t’s been more than 20 years since Alanis Morissette released her hit single “Ironic,” and even though I’ve heard it a thousand times, it still makes me smile when I hear it on the radio. I’m not ashamed to admit I’m still a big fan. I’ll turn it up and sing out loud, and if anyone who’s within earshot finds it ironic, because I’m utterly tone deaf.

Which is ironic isn’t it? I love music, and I love to sing, but I couldn’t carry a tune in a bucket.

I lost most of my hearing when I was in the second grade, and I’ve been hopelessly tone deaf ever since.

No one’s quite sure what happened, other than I woke up one morning, and I just couldn’t hear anymore. My parents spent most of that year hauling me back and forth across Iowa to different doctors and clinics, looking for answers. I’ve seen the inside of more MRI tubes than your average NFL lineman. Testing revealed I’d lost nearly all the hearing in my left ear,

So It Goes David Dolmage and more than half in my right.

Hearing aids technology has advanced by leaps and bounds, but things were still pretty primitive in the mid ‘80s. I was outfitted with two over the ear hearing aids, and at school I wore an auditory trainer, essentially a one-way walkie talkie. The system consisted of a microphone my teacher wore around her neck, which transmitted to a belt pack that was wired into my hearing aids. Pretty advanced stuff for mid ‘80s but then again, cordless phones were considered advanced technology back then.

Those early hearing aids didn’t do much more than amplify sound, and they lacked the sophisticated processing our brains have. Instead of blocking out the white noise to prioritize speech, they just made everything louder.

When a big chunk of my hearing disappeared overnight faster than Milli Vanilli’s music career so did my ability to hear different tonal ranges.

Unable to differentiate between different musical pitches, I was as flat as a 2x4.

You might think this meant I wasn’t able to participate in musical activities, but au contraire, you’d be wrong. Bless their hearts, I was allowed to join the school choir, and I sang my heart out.

If you attended any of those concerts, and you’re reading this, I’m sorry.

Even though I was terrible I still had the opportunity to try. I’m still trying, and although I’m hopelessly tone deaf, it hasn’t stopped me from singing along with the radio, or singing in the shower. In college, I decided I wanted to learn how to play the guitar, which meant singing and playing alongside the entire class. I got through the class only because my friend James was a guitar savant. Before each playing test James would meet me outside of the classroom and tune the guitar for me, with my hearing loss it was impossible

for me to hear the chords and tune by ear.

I’d always try to be the first person to play for the teacher, worried that a shift in temperature or some other random occurrence would knock the guitar out of tune. I’d sing each song as loudly as I could while my classmates alternated between contemplating suicide or staring at their shoes. At the end of the semester our instructor pulled me aside, and told me he’d give me C if I promised never to enroll in another music class.

I have a guitar at home, and I’ll play it once in awhile. I wrote an entire album of country songs for a writing project years ago, and I’ll sing them out loud to myself while I’m working.

I live alone now, so the boos from the audience aren’t as loud as they used to be.

Isn’t it ironic? Life has a funny way of sneaking up you. You don’t have to be greatest to do what you love, you’ve just got to keep trying.

American Conservative Ben Shapiro

Democrats’ new plan: Nationalized health care On Monday, two seemingly unrelated headlines made the news. The first: America’s national debt had finally reached $20 trillion. The second: New Jersey Democratic Sen. Cory Booker had finally come out in favor of Vermont independent Sen. Bernie Sanders’ magical, mythical “Medicare-ForAll” plan.

Of course, the two aren’t unrelated at all. Once again, the Democratic Party is signing checks the country can’t cash. Sanders’ Medicare-For-All scheme would add some $13.8 trillion in spending over the first decade alone. Medicare already carries $58 trillion in unfunded liabilities, according to National Review. How unrealistic is MedicareFor-All? It’s so unrealistic that the state of California has rejected a single-payer health care for being too expensive — and California currently has a Democratic supermajority in the state assembly.

Yet Democrats continue to push further and further to the left, fearful of being outflanked. Booker isn’t alone in his newfound embrace of socialized medicine. California’s Sen. Kamala Harris has also endorsed Sanders’ ridiculous plan. Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren will be co-sponsoring Sanders’ plan, as will Democratic Sen. Jeff Merkley of Oregon.

Why? Because Democrats are deeply frightened of being outflanked by socialists. There’s no benefit to moving to the center when your base sees no purpose in fiscal responsibility. So instead, Democrats race one another to the Soviet Union.

Meanwhile, Republicans cower in fear. Afraid of making the case for freedom, they compete with Democrats to see who can administer the giant state more “efficiently,” as though efficiency were the key problem with statism. Thus, Republicans ran headlong from the possibility of repealing Obamacare, afraid that the American people would backlash against them for “taking away” some form of entitlement.

This is a mistake by Republicans. Yes, whoever touches entitlements pays a price. But that’s not true if the alternative is a slide into total governmental control. That’s the case Republicans made from the day Obamacare was initiated: that it was the first step toward socialized medicine. Now Democrats are showing that the Republican critique was true. Republicans ought to provide a binary choice here: Either slide into nationalized health care with Democrats or help us tear away the bulwarks of tyranny in health care in favor of freedom.

In exposing their own radicalism, the Democrats have provided Republicans with an opportunity to seize the middle with conservatism. Republicans need not bend before the media’s insistence that health care is a government responsibility — they can easily and honestly point at the Democratic frontrunners and identify the agenda. The question is whether Republicans have the courage to do so or whether they’ve bought the false narrative that President Trump won because he campaigned as a centrist. Trump won promising full Obamacare repeal. Republicans can do the same now and have the credibility of an awful alternative behind them.

All it takes is courage. Democratic cowardice has led the Party down the primrose path to full-on socialism.

Now, Republicans must either make a stand against it or be complicit in bringing about that regime.

Friends in Hope makes an impact Friends in Hope has been an extremely helpful organization that has helped many community newcomers and long-term members with mentoring and gentle teaching of identifying true friendships.

I was asked to assist with Friends in Hope as an employee of The Salvation Army and making appropriate referrals to Friends in Hope when a need was identified. Marilyn Terlouw and Robyn Taylor have been there since the very first connection and friendship.

The transformations of great friendships developing from the many walks of life is remarkable.

Families have become self-suffi-

cient during these friendships.

People who may have found themselves making bad decisions or through no faults of their own, facing homelessness and, basically with no support system have been met with a warm smile, warm words of encouragement and ultimately have developed long and lasting friendships and have been able to mentor others in a friendly way.

Many of the initial friendships were because personal vulnerabilities and life experiences had caused sadness and desperation and family members and previous friends had shunned the member. Friendships were invited, formed and engagements have been proactive in a life improvement.

I am writing to encourage people to volunteer or recog-

nize the founding members an offering of appreciation and encouragement or thanking the continuing volunteers for their efforts in giving people a reason to shine in their darkest days. Great appreciation is also expressed to Mission Coalition for designating the proceeds of the annual pie sale to Friends in Hope for revenue to the charity.

The hours I have walked in the journey of watching the friendships form and continue has been so rewarding and the hours of work the volunteers have given to families is unsurpassed as is the knowledge, the lessons, the transportation trips, the selection of furniture and housegoods to start over can not be thanked enough. Thank you.

The next subprime loan crisis The self-described “Geniuses of Wall Street” are being stupid.

Again.

In 2007, their stupid schemes and frauds crashed our economy, destroying middle-class jobs, wealth, and opportunities. Far from being punished, however, the scofflaws were bailed out by their Washington enablers — so the moral lesson they learned was clear: Stupid pays! Go Stupid!

Sure enough, here they come again.

Rather than investing America’s capital in real businesses to generate grassroots jobs and shared prosperity, Wall Street is siphoning billions of investment dollars into speculative nonsense — such as bundles of high-risk, subprime auto loans.

It works like this: Car dealers,

Another View Jim Hightower eager to goose up sales, hawk new vehicles to lower-income people, offering quick loan approval, even to those with poor credit ratings. Banks — eager to hook more people on monthly car payments — okay these subprime car loans without verifying the buyer’s ability to pay.

Then, a Wall Street bank’s investment house buys up thousands of these iffy individual loans, bundles them into multimillion-dollar “debt securities,” and sells them to wealthy global speculators.

Last year alone, Bloomberg reports, banks sold $26 billion worth of these explosive bundles of car loans.

This is a gaseous repeat of Wall Street’s subprime mortgage bubble that burst a decade ago.

The scam generates easy money at the start for speculators and banksters. But as more and more buyers are unable to make their car payments, defaults build up — and the whole financial bubble pops.

Wasting America’s much-needed investment capital on a scheme that intentionally puts people in cars they can’t afford with loans they can’t repay isn’t only stupid, but immoral — and it’s killing our real economy. Why are we letting elite Wall Street loan sharks do this to us?

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Handy advice and tips help girls sharpen social skills

DEAR ABBY: I enjoy reading your column, especially letters regarding young girls and their social skills. I have two granddaughters who have the normal drama, mostly with other girls.

I worry their social skills are getting sidetracked.

I am interested in ordering your booklet about popularity. You have such a good way with words, and I’m sure the girls would find it helpful and enjoyable reading. They are the only grandchildren I have, and I’m trying to give them insight and help them along to become fully functional, successful adults. Is it still available? — LINDA IN TERRE HAUTE, IND. DEAR LINDA: Yes, the booklet is still available. It was written in response to thousands of questions from readers over the years who were not naturally socially assertive and contains many useful tips for polishing social skills. It can be ordered by sending your name and mailing address, plus check or money order for $7 (U.S. funds) to Dear Abby Popularity Booklet, P.O. Box 447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-0447.

Shipping and handling are included in the price. You will find the booklet covers a variety of situations and is meant for people of all ages. Everyone wants to be the kind of person others find interesting, attractive and worth knowing better. (If parents, teachers and clergy know someone needing help in this regard, it might make an inexpensive gift that could help change the course of that person’s life.)

The key to being well-liked by both sexes is: Be kind. Be honest. Be tactful.

Don’t be afraid to give someone a compliment if you think it’s deserved.

If you think you’re not beautiful (or handsome), be well-groomed, tastefully dressed, conscious of your posture.

(People who stand tall project self-confidence.) If you are not a “brain,” try harder. If you are smarter than most,

don’t be a know-it-all. Ask others what they think and encourage them to share their opinions.

If you’re not a good athlete, be a good sport. Be generous with kind words and affectionate gestures, but respect yourself and your family values always. If you think “putting out” will make someone like you, forget it. (It won’t work, and later you’ll be glad you didn’t.) If you need help, ask God. And if you don’t need anything, THANK God! DEAR ABBY: My husband refuses to wear headphones. This means that when we sit in the living room together, I must put up with the blaring noise of whatever he is watching.

I do a lot of writing, and in order to think, I need silence. I have tried earplugs, but they don’t muffle enough of the noise. Now, when I have had enough, I leave the room. This results in us being in two separate places, which he hates. Is there another solution I may be overlooking? — LOUD IN MAINE DEAR LOUD: You might try noise-canceling headphones. However, if that doesn’t work, because you need to “hear” in your head the sentences you are trying to write, you may have to do your writing when your husband is not at home.

Nurse accused of keeping patients’ drugs she’d ordered WALL LAKE — A nurse has been accused of stealing painkillers from a nursing home in northwest Iowa. Court records say 50-year-old Michelle Green is charged with fraudulent practice, dependent adult abuse, tampering with records and four counts of prohibited acts. Court records say Green kept for herself narcotic medications that she’d ordered for residents when she was working at Twilight Acres nursing home.

DES MOINES — An Iowa official says he’s less optimistic a proposal will be approved that would allow the state to shift money used for the Affordable Care Act. Iowa Insurance Commissioner Doug Ommen told lawmakers Tuesday he’s still awaiting a decision from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services regarding a so-called stopgap measure for the state’s individual insurance market. He says he’s “less optimistic” because he expected an answer by now.

County moves NCSD Transportation Director: forward with Smooth sailing for school buses unpaved road changes

By David Dolmage Newton Daily News

By Jamee A. Pierson Newton Daily News The Jasper County Board of Supervisors chose to waive the third public hearing and adopt an ordinance repealing and amending text on unpaved roads construction and reconstruction on Tuesday. A topic which has been at the forefront of many board meetings, the ordinance will establish the county’s policy for the construction and reconstruction of roads, bridges and other roadways in the secondary road system.

“We have not heard anything (from the public) after two meeting,s” assistant to the county engineer Pam Olson said.

With approval, the policy will set the minimum design standards the county will follow in construction or reconstruction roads and bridges. The criteria used will be based on accepted engineering practices and standards established by the Jasper County Engineer, Iowa Department of Transportation and the Federal Highway Administration.

For granular surfaced roads, new construction will have a 28-foot finished top. Reconstruction of granular surfaced roads will have a 28-foot finished top and a 26-foot minimum may be used when terrain, right of way or sufficient drainage deems it necessary. If the road has an existing width of less than 28 feet, it will be finished to the pre-existing width if unable to be widened.

Bridges on unpaved routes will be constructed at a minimum of 24 feet. If culverts are

used, they may be metal or concrete and pipe culverts larger than 54 inches in diameter can be substituted with reinforced box culverts.

The ordinance also addresses paved routes.

New pavement will be constructed at a minimum of 22 feet wide with granular shoulders.

Any intersection with non-paved roads will have pavement extended back onto the intersection road at a minimum of 50 foot beyond the end of the intersection radius.

Any reconstructed paved roads will be reconstructed at 22 feet wide with pavement or to the previous pavement width, whichever is greater. They will also have granular shoulders.

The board also waived the third public hearing establishing several Level B roadway designations in areas in the county. A 1.02 mile section of North 99th Avenue East near the Poweshiek County line in Hickory Grove Township, .22 miles on West 92nd Street North in Independence Township and one mile on North 35th Avenue West in Sherman Township were approved to change the designation.

In other business: • A contract with Skiff Medical Center for employee wellness blood draw services was approved.

• Craig Nolin and James Lewis were approved for hire as skilled laborers in the secondary roads department. The starting pay rate is $21.81 per hour with a start date of Monday.

The buses are rolling in Newton, and Newton Community Schools Transportation Director Curt Roorda reported to the school board on Monday this year’s gotten off to a good start.

Last year, the school officials heard complaints from parents about traffic jams at Berg Middle School, but Roorda said this year has been smooth sailing so far.

“We really got off to a pretty good start this year,” Roorda said.

Previously at Berg, buses parked behind the school, with the front drive, off Fifth Avenue East, being used for parents to drop off and pick up students.

That area is now be used a staging area for buses, with a new drop off and pick up location designated for parents off East 19th Street North, on the west side of the building.The front drive will open to passenger vehicles between the hours of 8 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. to make it easier for parents to have access to the school during the day.

There were concerns that staging all of the buses at Berg this year would create traffic issues for parents dropping off students, but that hasn’t been the case this year. Board members said they’ve heard only good feedback from parents so far, and board member Robyn Friedman, a Berg parent said the improvement is noticeable.

“It’s been extremely smooth, the first week all the teachers really helped coordinate the kids,” Friedman said. “Compared to last year when we had so many negative comments, to not have that this year has been really positive.”

The buses are staged on East 19th Street to roll in together, which has created some minor traffic issues but nothing significant, according to NCSD Su-

perintendent Bob Callaghan.

Callaghan told the board at Monday’s meeting that once the buses have departed traffic quickly dissipates. To Friedman, the coordination between the drivers was like watching a marching band.

“It’s almost musical, the way it all fits together,” Friedman said.

With parents picking up their kids on the back side of Berg this year instead of using the front drive Friedman said lines haven’t been too long, and she believes it’s easier for parents to get in and out than in previous years.

“It’s been extremely smooth ... compared to last year when we had so many negative comments, to not have that this year has been really positive.”

“That was a concern of mine, but it really hasn’t been an issue,” Friedman said.

Additionally, the district has added more crossing guards near Berg, which Friedman said have helped students get into the building and where they need to be much quicker than in previous years. Both Roorda and Friedman credited Berg Principal Lisa Sharp for her efforts in coordinating the bus drop off changes and getting the word out about those changes to parents.

“Mrs. Sharp has done an excellent job of communicating with parents,” Roorda said.

Roorda also reported to the board the district had completed its annual bus inspections in August of this year with no significant issues to report. There are some changes to the routes this year, according to the transportation director but no big differences.

Whatever floats your boat

Students decorate homecoming floats in preparation for homecoming parade

By David Dolmage Newton Daily News As homecoming week gets underway, Newton students are hard at preparing their homecoming floats. Each class decorates its own float, with the class whose float is judged to be the best gaining bragging rights over their peers for the rest of the year.

Float building takes place in secret, with teams of students hard at work gluing, painting and stapling in order to transform ordinary trailers into extraordinary artwork. Students began work on the floats Monday night after school, and work will continue, with students hustling to finish last minute details before Thursday’s parade.

The annual Homecoming parade will start at 6 p.m. Thursday in the high school parking lot, and will conclude with a pep rally on the square in Newton.

Tigers snag LHC win from Cardinals

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News

On a big night for Newton High volleyball, Newton High’s 2017 team found itself in unchartered waters for the season. The Cardinals and the visiting Grinnell Tigers battled to a fifth set to decide their Little Hawkeye Conference match.

Newton rallied from a firstset loss to win the next two sets, but Grinnell pulled out a 25-23 decision in the fourth set to force a fifth set. The Tigers won the LHC contest 2516, 22-25, 24-26, 25-23, 15-9.

“We’re getting better communicating with each other and understanding what we’re doing on the court,” senior middle blocker and hitter Alexis Hoffman said following the match. “We’ve improved so much from the beginning of the season.”

Hoffman said she believed the Cardinals were getting to the point where they can do great things when they are in the right mindset. She said the players are working on developing the mental toughness Jocelyn Sheets/Daily News they need to finish matches Blocked — Newton High senior Alexis Hoffman, right, blocks an attempted hit by Grinnell’s Hope Nelson, left, during Tuesday’s Little Hawkeye Conference match at Newton.

Three Cardinal runners earn medals at Oskaloosa meet

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News OSKALOOSA — For one of the rare occasions this fall, Newton High’s Cardinal cross country runners had to deal with the heat. The Cardinals competed in Tuesday’s Oskaloosa Invitational meet at Edmundson Park in Oskaloosa.

“The heat affected us today, but the girls still gave a good effort,” Newton girls’ head coach Rachelle Tipton said.

Newton’s girls finished sixth in the 11-team field with 136 points. Ottumwa was led to the varsity team championship

by individual winner Kaylie Latham. Ottumwa scored 33 points and second-place Williamsburg had 83 points.

The Cardinal boys ended up ninth with 215 points in their 11-team division. Clear

Creek Amana was the boys’ varsity champion with 30 points and host Oskaloosa was second with 52 points.

Two Cardinal girls claimed individual medals. Rachel Rhoads paced the Cardinals

with a 10th-place finish time of 22 minutes, 20 seconds for the 5K race. Ashay Malow placed 15th in 23:02.

“Ashay had a great run today. She got out and grabbed onto a pack, then moved well with it and hung on to get a medal,” Tipton said. “Getting two to medal tonight was a big accomplishment.”

Newton’s No. 3 runner in the meet was Clare Muckler, who finished 27th in 24:32, followed by Abbie Barr in 40th at 26:15. Original Tesfay was 44th in 26:33. Tessa Keeton and Willow Oswalt ran 53rd and 63rd respectively, in

27:53 and 28:36.

Adam Hunter captured the ninth-place medal for the Newton’s boys as he ran the 5K distance in 18:43.2. Dylan Main was the second Cardinal runner to cross the finish line, finishing 31st in 20:20.5.

Williamsburg’s Ben Lamparek won the boys’ varsity race in 17:58.4.

NCMP cruises past Oskaloosa

By Troy Hyde Newton Daily News The NCMP Aquagirls had a lot of fun in the pool Tuesday night.

NCMP went headto-head against a short-handed Oskaloosa team and dominated almost every event on its way to a 125-35 victory.

The Aquagirls won all but one event, finished 1-2-3 in five events and were at least 1-2 in seven more.

Three different swimmers — Alex Inskeep, Lakin Jenkins and Lindsey Blommers — were a part of four victories each.

“It was a fun meet.

There wasn’t a lot of pressure tonight,” NCMP coach Sarah Patterson said. “We have some things we still need to work on, but the kids know that. There were a lot of good things tonight, too.”

Oskaloosa competed with only 12 swimmers.

So the winner was pretty much known before the 200 medley relay kicked off. The Indians managed to take the top spot in the 100-meter freestyle, but the Aquagirls were 2-3-4 in that event as well.

“It was a fun meet.

I know the Oskaloosa girls too so it was nice to see us all swim well,” Inskeep said. “It’s good motivation for our team moving forward.”

Inskeep, Jenkins and Blommers all won two individual events and were part of two winning relays.

Inskeep won the 200 freestyle and 100 butterfly, Jenkins was the victor in the 200 IM and 100 backstroke and Blommers claimed victories in the 100 breaststroke the 50 freestyle.

Troy Hyde/Daily News NCMP’s Alex Inskeep won the 100 butterfly on Tuesday during the Aquagirls’ 125-35 win over Oskaloosa at the Newton YMCA. Inskeep was part of four wins on the night.

Indians tie AL record with 20th straight win CLEVELAND (AP) — The Cleveland Indians share a record with a team celebrated

by Hollywood. “Moneyball” has its sequel.

Following a familiar script of scoring first, playing strong defense and riding dominant pitching, the Indians extended their winning streak to 20 games and matched the AL mark held by the 2002 Oakland Athletics, beating the Detroit Tigers 2-0 on Tuesday night.

Cleveland’s streak, which began on Aug. 24 in Boston, is tied for the majors’ second-longest in 82 years — and the Indians show no signs of stopping.

Corey Kluber (16-4) strengthened his Cy Young Award case with a four-hitter as Cleveland joined the 2002 A’s, 1935 Chicago Cubs (21) and 1916 New York Giants (26) as the only teams to win at least 20 in a row.

Iowa’s passing game takes step forward after dismal ‘17 IOWA CITY (AP) — It’s difficult to overstate just how inept Iowa’s passing game had become by the end of last season.

Last weekend’s win at Iowa State showed that the Hawkeyes (2-0) might finally be dangerous through the air again.

Sophomore Nate Stanley leads the Big Ten in passing touchdowns (eight) and is tied for third nationally after he threw five of them in a 44-41 overtime victory over the Cyclones.

Stanley’s growth, combined with the emergence of first-year receivers Nick Easley and Ihmir Smith-Marsette, have given Iowa reasons for optimism with Big Ten play approaching.

The Hawkeyes host North Texas (1-1) in their final non-conference game on Saturday.

“I think we have a chance to have some balance. But we’re hardly out of the woods,” Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz said. Stanley “looked a lot more comfortable out there.... he made some beautiful throws and the guys helped him out.”

Iowa finished 118th out of 128 teams nationally in passing offense a year ago despite having a quarterback, C.J. Beathard, that was talented enough to be drafted in the third round by San Francisco.

A new coordinator in Brian Ferentz, a new signal caller and a host of new receivers have the Hawkeyes trending in the right direction.

Stanley wasn’t asked to do too much in his first start, finishing just 8-of-15 for 125 yards against Wyoming.

Against Iowa State, Iowa was forced to turn to their young quarterback after they fell behind by 10 in the second half.

Stanley was brilliant in his first big test, finishing with 333 yards and becoming the first Iowa quarterback in 30 years with more than 300 yards passing and five TDs in one game.

“He showed that he can be the great leader that he is. He never complains. He never whines. He never yells at a player if he drops a pass,” said star running back Akrum Wadley, who took a short pass from Stanley 46 yards for a touchdown to force overtime last week. “He’s just always composed.”

Stanley’s transition has been

By Troy Hyde Newton Daily News

Troy Hyde/Daily News Iowa sophomore Nate Stanley, back, earned Big Ten Conference Co-Offensive Player of the Week honors after throwing for 333 yards and five touchdowns against Iowa State last weekend. The Hawkeyes’ passing game through the first two games is off to a much better start than it was at any point last season.

eased by the quick development of Easley, a junior college transfer who has emerged as Stanley’s safety valve.

Easley has a team-high 11 catches for 125 yards and two TDs and is the first player under coach Kirk Ferentz, now in his 19th season, with touchdowns catches in each of his first two starts.

“You know he’s always going to be in the right place at the right time,” Stanley said. “He’s really reliable. Good hands, and obviously he can make some people miss when he gets the ball.”

Smith-Marsette, a freshman, made up for the fumble he lost on his first touch as a Hawkeye last week with a pair of TD catches, including the game-winner in OT. Senior teammate James Butler lauded Smith-Marsette’s maturity on Tuesday, and his speed and athleticism have been apparent ever

since he showed up on campus.

“You could see that he was making moves that, not a lot of guys in (fall) camp could really run with him,” Butler said. “We knew he could play.”

Iowa also has gotten a boost from the return of senior Matt VandeBerg, who scored his first touchdown of the season last week, and Wadley showed how dangerous he can be in space on his game-tying touchdown.

The Hawkeyes will continue to lean heavily on Wadley in both the running and the passing game — but they might have more weapons than they originally realized.

“We’ll try to balance that out a little bit, and there’s no reason that we can’t,” Ferentz said of Wadley, who had 28 carries and caught four passes last week.

“We’ve got other guys who’ve done a really good job.”

Danica Patrick done at Stewart-Haas, future unsure CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Danica Patrick, the only female driver at NASCAR’s top level, is likely at the end of her driving career after a sponsorship shake-up left her without a ride at Stewart-Haas Racing.

Patrick posted a statement on her Facebook page Tuesday saying her time with Stewart-Haas “had come to an end” due to a new sponsorship arrangement for the team next season. The statement came shortly after Smithfield Foods said it will leave Richard Petty Motorsports to become a primary sponsor at Stewart-Haas next year.

The news is a blow to RPM, which also is losing driver Aric Almirola. But it also forced changes at Stewart-Haas, which has struggled with sponsorship for three of its four cars, including the No. 10 Ford driven

by Patrick.

“It has been my honor to drive for Tony Stewart, Gene Haas and everyone at Stewart-Haas Racing for the past six seasons,” Patrick wrote.

“Sponsorship plays a vital role in our sport, and I have been very fortunate over the course of my career, but this year threw us for a curve.”

Patrick, whose participation in NASCAR has always been polarizing given the attention she receives despite her lack of success, closed the post by writing: “I

PCM, Colfax-Mingo harriers compete at Pleasantville

have the utmost faith in myself and those around me, and feel confident about my future.”

Patrick has launched Patrick a clothing line, has a book coming out next year and has made a huge transition into promoting a healthy and fit lifestyle. It has her positioned for a second career at the age of 35 if she chooses. She’s also in a long-term relationship with fellow driver Ricky Stenhouse Jr., who will make his debut in the playoffs this weekend.

Sponsorship dollars have been hard to come by for a number of drivers and teams. Smithfield’s decision leaves Petty’s team in need of a sponsor, and Almirola is looking for a ride.

But the bigger changes are clearly underway at SHR, which didn’t reveal where Smithfield will be in the organization in 2018.

“Details of the agreement, including the driver who will be added to SHR’s Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series lineup in 2018, will be provided at a later date,” SHR said in a statement.

That means Smithfield could end up on the car Patrick has driven. Clint Bow-

yer and Kurt Busch both need sponsorship on their cars, too. Busch, the Daytona 500 winner, does not have a deal with SHR for next season.

Both Harvick and Busch will represent SHR in the 10-race playoffs that begin Sunday at Chicagoland Speedway.

Now that Patrick has confirmed she’s out at SHR, the team could choose to downsize to three cars, or pursue Almirola, Matt Kenseth, Kasey Kahne or any other available driver. The team could be in the market to replace just Patrick, or both Patrick and Busch.

Patrick has driven for Stewart-Haas Racing her entire Cup career. She has seven top-10 finishes in 180 career starts and is currently 28th in the standings.

Still, she won the pole for the 2013 Daytona 500, won an IndyCar race in 2008, is the highest finishing female driver in Indianapolis 500 history with a third-place run in 2009 and is the only woman to lead laps in both the Indy 500 and the Daytona 500.

Patrick is the only woman to win a Cup pole.

“She will go down as the best female NASCAR driver of all time. Will likely take decades to see anyone even challenge her legacy,” Brad Keselowski posted on Twitter.

PLEASANTVILLE — Prairie City-Monroe and Colfax-Mingo cross country teams finished in the first four positions in both the girls’ and boys’ divisions Monday at the Pleasantville Invitational.

The Mustang girls placed four runners in the top 12 to win the team title with 69 points, while Colfax-Mingo finished third with 73 points.

Tigerhawk sophomore Abbey McConeghey had the top area finish as she was second overall with a time of 21 minutes, 10 seconds.

In the boys’ division, PCM placed second overall with 72 points. The Mustangs trailed champion Martensdale-St. Marys by 20 points. Colfax-Mingo finished fourth with 105 points, three points back of Interstate 35.

Astrograph

People think they’re being smart by quickly summing up the situation, but that may not be the case. There will be many factors at play today, and you’re wise to wait and see which ones cancel each other out. Avoid assuming knowledge and you’ll also avoid mistakes. This advice is brought to you courtesy of a difficult solar position to Saturn.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Sept.

13). If this year were a musical score, it would have the soaring melodies of a John Williams action/adventure piece. You’ll make friends who up your game. The financial infusion next month will be well-invested in education or

travel. The end of the year will bring a merging of families.

May is the most romantic month. Pisces and Libra adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 10, 36, 2, 28 and 31.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). There may be legitimate reasons for futile pursuits. As impossible as the standard of perfection may be, there are excellent near-perfect findings along the way to make such a quest worthwhile.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

Not every appetite is an indulgence. More often than not, what you crave will point you to what your body and soul know will nourish you. Follow

an interest into the deeper and more nourishing levels.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Of course you stand for something: You stand for a lot of things, in fact. That being the case, there’s no need to go out of your way to find new things to stand for. This is a day to relax and just be who you are.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

In the case where the boss is away, inept or nonexistent, someone has to lead. You’ll be good at it. You’ll call some key shots, in a manner that is necessary and beneficial to you and all involved.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You refuse to give a mood too much sway over your schedule. Moods come and go. You

prefer to make decisions based on your overall vision of your life, not the moment-to-moment minutiae of feelings.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

Repetition makes for ease... that is until it makes for weariness and exhaustion. Practice until you get good -- but then know when to quit. Recognize the point of diminishing returns.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The competition isn’t always coming at you from an opposing side. Often it’s your nearest and dearest who are the most competitive with you, which adds complications to the scene today.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

You want something that

scares you. The prospect of having what you want is even more frightening than the possibility of never having it, but you’re brave, so you’ll go for it anyway.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’re a hard worker today, with deeper wells of self-discipline than usual. Take advantage of these focusing powers while they last. Also look for ways to apply more of your talents to the task at hand.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). It will be important to separate your identity from your opinions. Your opinions -- even your beliefs -- may change as you come to understand more about the world.

Who you are is much deeper than one worldview.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

People connect in the soft parts of their hearts. Those are also the vulnerable parts. You cannot make that connection without leaving yourself somewhat vulnerable. On some level you have to agree to get hurt.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

If relationships were emotional weather, some would be a gentle wind through the mind and others would put you on tornado watch. Then again, you can be a bit of a storm chaser these days. It’s one way to fight the ennui.

The Newton freshmen beat Grinnell 25-14, 16-25, 15-7. As a team, the Cardinals were 42-of-49 serving with nine service aces and had nine kills.

“I was very pleased with the effort tonight,” Newton freshman coach Eric VanderVelden said. “The girls came ready to play. We switched our serve receive up at Monday’s practice and it was outstanding. Our passing was much improved.”

Newton’s freshmen play in Saturday’s Des Moines East freshman tournament. Matches begin at 9 a.m.

The junior varsity plays in a tournament Monday at Prairie-City Monroe.

NCMP Continued from Page 1B The other individual winner on the night was Natalie Boll. She won the 400 freestyle. Boll also was second in the 200 freestyle, and Jessica Zahn and Jaclyn Michener were part of two winning relay teams.

“Alex swam great in 100 fly tonight, and Lindsey continues to impress in her breaststroke and her 50,” Patterson said. “Natalie Boll swam great in her 200 and 400. Rachel (Boll) had her best time in the backstroke. Lakin swam well, too. She looks really smooth this year, and I am excited to see how she finishes the season.”

There were not very many personal-best times on the night. But that was to be expected, according to Patterson, who said the team worked super hard in practice the past few days.

“We practiced really hard Saturday and both practices yesterday were really hard,” Patterson said. “We also practiced this morning so the girls are a little fatigued, and they should be at this point in the season.

“There won’t be a lot of season-best times right now.

They just have to know that that stuff will work its way back around. They’ll be a pay off in the end.”

The Aquagirls began the night with a 1-2-4 finish in the 200 medley relay. The winning team of Jenkins, Blommers, Mackenna Brooks and Michener stopped the clock at

2 minutes, 14.58 seconds.

Inskeep and Natalie Boll had quite the battle in the 200 freestyle. Inskeep won the race in 2:28.26, which was .08 seconds faster than Boll in second.

Jenkins won the 200 IM with a time of 2:48.43, and Blommers won the 50 freestyle in 29.84. Michener and Abbie Hill finished 2-3 in 31.94 and 32.45, respectively.

The Aquagirls also were 1-2-3 in the 100 butterfly.

Inskeep’s winning time was 1:15.6, while Brooks finished in 1:18.42 and Paulius was clocked at 1:28.62.

Oskaloosa’s Veronica Bolibaugh won the 100 freestyle in 1:07.55, but Courtney Dawson was the runner-up in 1:08.72.

Natalie Boll won the 400 freestyle in 5:13.77, Blommers

won the 100 breaststroke in 1:16.95 and Jenkins claimed the victory in the 100 backstroke in 1:16.59.

The 200 freestyle relay winners were Blommers, Zahn, Michener and Inskeep. They hit the wall in 2:01.89. The 400 freestyle relay included Natalie Boll, Zahn, Jenkins and Inskeep, and they won the race in 4:30.24.

“I am really working on my mental strategy,” Patterson said. “I have had a big mental block the past few years so getting over that and pushing myself over that block is what I am trying to go for right now.”

Inskeep isn’t the only NCMP swimmer battling through mental blocks at this point in the season.

“We are a time driven sport, and when you look up and

don’t see a season-best time or if you don’t go as fast as you think, it can be discouraging,” Patterson said. “It can weigh on your mind and you have to find a way to put that on hold and keep pushing through.

“We have to stay positive.

You can’t get down on yourself in any sport. That’s never going to end well.”

The NCMP junior varsity defeated Oskaloosa 1368. Mariah Petro was part of three wins. Kali Smith, Molly Coy, Brooke McNeer and Liv Barnes were all winners of two races.
