The pipe is intended for the pending Dakota Access Pipeline. Three Iowa landowners held a press conference Wednesday in Des Moines after filing a lawsuit in Cherokee County against the Iowa Utilities Board, claiming the project does not fall under the IUB’s jurisdiction to allow the use of eminent domain.

Four fire departments battled a structure fire southwest of Newton Wednesday afternoon.

Crews from Newton, Monroe, Colfax and Mingo needed more than an hour to contain a fire at a machine shed, located on the south side of South 48th Avenue West in the 4900 block. The first call came in shortly before 3 p.m.

Iowa landowners sue IUB over oil pipeline

By Mike Mendenhall Newton Daily News DES MOINES — Three Iowa landowners have filed a lawsuit against the Iowa Utilities Board, claiming the three-member panel does not have the authority to grant the use of eminent domain in the construction of the proposed Dakota Access crude oil pipeline.

The lawsuit was filed in Cherokee County District County on Monday by Marian Johnson of Cherokee County, Brent Jesse of Buena Vista County and Richard Lamb of Boone County.

According to the civil court petition, the plaintiffs argue the IUB does not have jurisdiction over an

interstate pipeline, not qualifying the project as a public utility as deemed necessary by the Iowa Code for the IUB to allow the use of eminent domain.

The 1,134-mile, 30-inch diameter oil pipeline would carry 570,000 barrels of crude oil per day. If approved by the IUB, the Iowa segment will be part of a connecting line between the North Dakota Bakken crude oil fields with a hub in Patoka, Ill., leading to gulf coast refineries. Nearly 34 miles of the proposed pipeline route goes through Jasper County, affecting landowners and farmland from Mingo to Reasnor.

Special education was board’s first leadership workshop topic

By Jason W. Brooks Newton Daily News

Jason W. Brooks/Daily News Associate Director of Secondary Services Tina Ross made the first of a new type of presentation to the Newton Community School District board of education on Monday.

Ross was selected to talk about some of the basic elements of special education in a 25-minute leadership workshop, open to the public, that will take place before the final board meeting of each month.

Fortunately, no one asked Associate Director of Secondary Services Tina Ross to cover every element of special education in Monday night’s 25-minute presentation.

Ross covered a lot of ground in 25 minutes, however, in a new workshop designed to detail specific topics before the final regular Newton Community School District board of education meeting of each month. Even though

being asked to “explain” special education is sort of like having to explain all the steps to building and testing a space shuttle orbiter, Ross brought the board up to speed on a number of important facts regarding the special-ed realm of public education.

At its April 23 meeting, the board voted to have leadership workshops one half-hour before the final meeting of each month, on a specific public-education topic. Monday was the debut of that new workshop, with Ross chosen

to speak about special education.

Ross stressed the importance of knowing how to include each student, help students feel valued as individuals and properly document each step of the educational process.

“There are a lot of acronyms in special education,” Ross said early in her presentation.

“And we want children with disabilities in with all of their non-disabled friends. That’s what kids want, too.”

File Photo Inactivity can put people at a higher risk for certain health issues. There are several simple ways to help counteract inactivity. Keeping track of your daily steps is one way to start improving your health.

Can physical inactivity increase your health risks?

By Nancy Schive, R.D., L.D. Skiff Medical Center Research shows that individuals who sit all day, even if they head to the gym for an hour, have and increased risk for chronic disease than those who are more active during the day.

“Informal” physical activity such as walking to a coworker’s desk instead of just emailing or calling or taking a walk around the mall or through a parking lot can add up to a lot of minutes throughout the day and is beneficial to overall health.

Researchers have been investigating how best to reduce our risk of chronic disease for years.

The big question has always been: How much exercise is needed to prevent disease?

According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ physical activity guidelines, adults should get at least 150 minutes of moderate intensity aerobic physical activity per week, including at least two days

of muscle-strengthening activities. This guideline was developed on the assumption that we are doing light physical activity during the day, including walking and standing. However, many of us sit most of the day at our jobs and technology has replaced the need to do much actual physical work.

Physical inactivity is anytime you are not standing or moving. Sitting at your desk, watching TV or being in your car for a long commute all fall into this category. Our health is impaired by how many hours we sit each day as well as how long we actually are inactive throughout the day. While there is not a specific published recommendation for a “safe” amount of sitting time yet, a good rule of thumb is to try to move for at least 1-2 minutes each hour in addition to the 150 minutes of moderate physical activity each week. If you have a sedentary job, you can break that up into smaller increments of activity to help improve your

health. Consider these tips to help get you moving during the day: • Wear a pedometer to track your daily steps. Aim for an ultimate goal of 10,000 steps per day. The key is to start somewhere and try to improve your number each day.

• Have walking meetings instead of sitting in a conference room.

• Stand during phone calls.

• Go for a brisk walk after lunch.

• Walk to your coworker’s office instead of emailing or calling.

• Drink enough water so that you have to use the restroom often.

• Spread your activity out during the week. You can also break it up into smaller pieces of time throughout the day.

• Make time for physical activity by changing the way you think about being active. Treat your workout just as you would any important appointment or commitment. You are worth it.

Tips for coping with severe summer heat Newton Daily News Hot summer temperatures, especially those that last for several days, are very dangerous and can cause death, especially for the elderly, young people and people with chronic health conditions. The best way to avoid heat-related health problems is to spend at least two hours a day in air conditioning. Here are some tips to keep yourself and your home cool: • Avoid using appliances during the day.

Wait until night to do laundry or use the oven or stove.

• Drink a lot of cold water throughout the day. Avoid beverages

with caffeine or alcohol because they will dehydrate you. To avoid dehydration, in addition to cold water, drink an electrolyte fluid like Smart Water or Pedialyte.

• Dress in cool, light clothing.

During dangerously hot weather, here are some great resources to contact: • Call 211, if you have questions about cooling your home or finding a cooler location.

• Call 911, if you are experiencing a heat-related illness. Symptoms include body temperature of 104 degrees or higher, lack of sweating, nausea and vomiting, flushed skin, rapid breathing, racing heart

Special classes are considered to be far from the ideal, she said. Modern schools have moved much closer to inclusion, with ways and means to keep special-ed students in the same milieu with their peers, rather than setting them apart in special-ed classrooms.

Ross took the board and a handful of observers (the workshops are open to the public) through several steps of the special-ed process, including the creation of individualized educational plans. She stressed the importance of IEPs, as a multi-page document that not only addresses the complexity of a student’s needs, but also their skills. It’s updated on an annual basis.

There are several roles represented at the ideal IEP meeting: a parent, a special education teacher, a regular classroom teacher, a representative of any other applicable districts ( if the student has open-enrolled in another district), someone who can interpret evaluation results, and an administrator authorized to approve expenditures.

“Can you have a meeting without all of these roles at the meeting?” Ross asked. “It’s not best practice, but it can happen.”

Ross said if a parent misses three meeting appointments, the team is able to proceed, as long as it documents the missed appointments.

Meeting notices are normally about 10 days out, and most educators try to meet at times that work for parents.

Once a student turn age 18, they are allowed to make their own educational decisions, Ross said. This is one of the many aspects Ross said educators start to remind parents about —even parents of the youngest children receiving special-ed services.

There are Level I, II and III special-ed students. District educators collect data and determine needs, and an outside agency, such as the Heartland Area Education Agency, completes matrixes and assigns weighting to help determine the level of assistance each student needs.

Ross said it’s important for staff working with each student to know as many of the limitations and special needs as possible, giving two clear examples.

“If a student can’t see well out of the right eye, you don’t want them on the far left-hand side of the room,” Ross said. “And some students can see contrast on a yellow sheet of paper better than on plain white. These things need to go into a plan, and the plan needs to be followed.”

The board’s next regular meeting is Aug. 10.

A workshop topic for August has not yet been announced.

Sinbad the sailor tricks his way out, and with the help of the travelers he saved, he returns and rescues Minerva to live happily ever after — or does he?

The second production will be “Little Red Robin Hood” featuring high school and college students. “Little Red Robin Hood”: We’ve all seen fractured fairy tales before, but never quite like this one, which takes a hilarious detour through Robin Hood’s Nottingham and Sherwood Forest.

Pipeline Continued from Page 1A In the suit, the landowners allege that representatives for Dakota Access, LLC — a subsidiary of Texas-based Energy Transfer Partners — led them to believe that IUB would allow Dakota Access to use eminent domain to condemn their land if they do not “immediately” sign an easement. Dakota Access is allowed to seek voluntary land easements from landowners for the proposed project, but the IUB will make the final decision following a final public hearing

on whether the company is allowed to use eminent domain to construct the pipeline on the remaining land.

Following a press conference in Des Moines Wednesday, Bill Hanigan, the attorney representing the landowners in the suit, said his clients are asking the IUB to respond to the petition by Aug. 20.

“The Iowa law allowing limited condemnation of farmland requires that a crude oil pipeline either be subject to Iowa safety regulatory jurisdiction or be a utility. Interstate crude oil pipelines are subject to federal jurisdiction, and

Hanigan said one of his plaintiffs felt threatened by Dakota Access representatives’ claims that the use of eminent domain for the limited condemnation of their farmland was a certainty if they did not agree to an easement.

“Petitioners lack an adequate remedy at the administrative level because of the immediate and irreparable injury associated with the permanent grant of an easement under the threat of eminent domain,” the

lawsuit reads. “Petitioners require clarity from the court as to whether they ultimately have a choice — are they negotiating with the interstate pipeline company at arm’s length, or are the threats of eminent domain substantiated and therefore the Petitioners must ultimately acquiesce.”

Road to redemption

By Mike Mendenhall Staff Writer

www.newtondailynews.com | Thursday | July 30, 2015

Editor’s note: The following events are true, but to maintain the privacy of the individuals discussed, the subject of this column will be refereed to only as “he.”

He walked into a fully-furnished one bedroom apartment after a year of uncertainty, living in a concrete dorm room above the downtown Des Moines Salvation Army. His first social media post after receiving the keys to his new place was an ode to his new grill and the fresh steaks he was about to season and serve to himself after only eating donated food for the last year.

When I last wrote about my friend, he was having withdrawals from a vodka binge.

In a Des Moines-area hospital, his blood alcohol content topped 0.4, nearly four times

the legal limit. He had been a frequent flyer at the hospital’s selective alcohol and substance abuse in-patient program, and the doctors thought his fifth visit within a year showed the program wasn’t working for his addiction.

He continued his downward spiral until he was kicked out of his mobile home by his girlfriend of nine years. He allegedly hit her in a drunken depression. He pleaded guilty in county court to domestic assault and served jail time.

It was Christmas time, and no one — not even his family — would help him post bail prior to trial.

He eventually convinced an old high school friend to pay the cash assured bond, so he could leave the county lockup. He moved into his friend’s one-story ranch with all his belongings in black

trash bags. My partner and I knew he wouldn’t be able to rehabilitate himself without a support system. We attended two Alcoholics Anonymous meetings with him in one evening. For New Year’s Eve, we planned an alcohol-free night — taking him to Sober Under the Stars at the Science Center of Des Moines. He arrived drunk.

He eventually was kicked out of his friend’s house, and with nowhere to turn, he checked into the Salvation Army’s rehab program. In exchange for room and board, he worked at the thrift store for nearly a year, maintaining his sobriety.

Sunday afternoons, for the last few months, my partner and I spent time with him at a downtown coffee shop, searching the online job boards in anticipation of his pending

treatment graduation. He lost his girlfriend, his home and his two dogs in the span of two months. As he saw his world crumble, he began to realize he had to make the decision to pick himself up. He had the support, but he had to make the final call to better himself.

After graduation, he did land a new job, a new apartment and a new perspective on life. Unemployed for more than two years, he is aware of the tenuous nature of his situation. It would not take much to open up that bottle once again. He will always be an alcoholic.

Twelve months ago, he was nearly homeless. Now, he’s standing once again. All it takes is one, but there is strength in numbers.

Empty Nest

Growing up in Selma, Iowa

Another View

Creeping out of the foxhole At long last Republican presidential hopefuls crept out of their foxholes, where they’d been cowering and maintaining radio silence, to attack Donald Trump.

With one or two exceptions, the field went AWOL as Trump trashed Kaul immigrants, calling them drug runners and rapists. But as soon as Trump said “I like people who weren’t captured,” suggesting that Senator John McCain was less than a hero, they pounced.

Senator Lindsey Graham fumed that Trump’s had “crossed a line.” Former Florida Governor Jeb Bush condemned his “slanderous attacks.” Former Texas Governor Rick Perry called on Trump to exit the race altogether.

How noble of them.

Of course, it helped having some truth on their side. As a Navy pilot, McCain was shot down and wounded during a bombing mission in the Vietnam War. The future Arizona senator spent five and a half years in a Hanoi prison, two of them in solitary confinement.

He was tortured and beaten and his injuries were allowed to go untended. Yet when his captors offered him release after discovering that his father commanded the entire Viet-

nam theater of the war, he refused. He was bound by military code to wait until everyone captured before him had been released.

That should settle the argument. Whatever you think of the Vietnam War, McCain showed tremendous integrity.

Trump is an idiot.

But I wonder where these Republicans and their ilk were in 2004, when John Kerry was the Democratic Party’s presidential nominee. He was another hero whose patriotism was assailed. The only difference: He was a Democrat and his assailants Republicans.

The GOP built a well-financed machine to tell lies about Kerry’s war record. His opponent, President George W. Bush, raised not a hand in protest at this slander.

As a matter of fact, there was only one prominent Republican who spoke out in protest of the scummy Republican campaign: John McCain.

What’s happened to Republicans? They used to be such nice people. Sure, they favored the moneyed interests and disliked unions and taxes, but they supported good causes too — like public schools.

Some Republicans were environmentalists and internationalists. And, never forget, it was under a Republican president, Dwight Eisenhower, that we undertook the greatest public works project in our history — the interstate highway system.

And it was another Republican, Teddy Roosevelt, who inaugurated our national parks system.

That kind of Republican either doesn’t exist anymore or is sheltered in a witness protection program.

Your current brand of Republicans wouldn’t pave a road unless it ran in front of their houses. Even then they’d pay for it by cutting Social Security payments.

They’re against opening up relations with Cuba, negotiating with Iran, cutting the military budget to bring it more in line with our needs, and raising the minimum wage. They don’t believe in climate change because to do so would mean going against the oil interests that generously fund their electoral campaigns.

Look at the gang that’s running for the Republican nomination: The worst of them seem deranged and the best appear fearful that they’ll do something to raise the ire of the party’s tea party wing. Like criticize Donald Trump when he slanders immigrants.

It’s not like the Democrats are white knights. They have more than their share of hypocrisy and cowardice. But the Republicans are talking it to a whole new level.

Even Ronald Reagan must be spinning in his grave.

“The houses and streets look smaller. The Des Moines River is still big as ever, it’s swollen from all this rain, but the bridge across the river looks smaller.

H o w can this By Curt Swarm be? Is it Guest Columnist because we’ve grown? Or is it because we’ve moved on?”

These were some of the comments made at the First Annual Selma High School Reunion held on July 18.

A Facebook page was started, “I Grew Up in Selma Iowa” and in short order, there were several hundred “friends,” from around the world. T-shirts were sold to raise money to rebuild the Selma War Memorial.

Where is Selma, Iowa?

It’s in northwest Van Buren County, right next to Eldon, where the American Gothic House is located. There are only about 50 residents in Selma nowadays, but in its prime, around the turn of the 20th century, it boasted three grocery stores, a lumber yard, stockyard, rail line, taverns, churches, and of course a school.

Here are a few of the stories told at the Selma High School Reunion, where that much food hadn’t been seen since the last-day-of-school picnics!

There were 140 people in attendance.

Woman: The gymnasium at the school was so small, the tops of the keys nearly touched each other.

There was a steel beam down the middle of the ceiling. If the basketball hit the beam, that was out-ofbounds. Other teams hated playing us. But we had just as much trouble playing on their full-size gyms.

Man: “There were so few kids, that most of my friends were adults. But from that, just like my dad, I never met a stranger.”

Woman: “I wasn’t supposed to cross the railroad tracks, or go near the river, but I did, because that’s

where all the fun was!”

Man: “On a band trip to the Cattle Congress in Cedar Rapids, we were coming back, and the bus ran over a skunk. The skunk got stuck between the rear dual wheels, and we couldn’t get it out. We smelled that skunk all the way to Selma! When I went into the Air Force, I had a chance to attend a year of language school at Yale University. I went through all the testing and was finally rejected because I had been involved in too many school activities. The Air Force was afraid that I wouldn’t be able to settle down and study. I protested and explained that there were only eight kids in my class, and 52 in the whole school. Everyone had to be involved in everything, like band, chorus, the class play, basketball, or there wouldn’t be those activities. I was accepted into language school, a kid from Selma, Iowa, going to Yale.”

Woman: “A fellow lived behind us and wanted to know if one of the boys could mow his yard. Sure.

We sent Fritz. The man came back and said, ‘That boy mowed my weed!’”

Man: “I hired on for $35 a month to pick up kids on one of the schoolbus routes in my 1930 Chevrolet. I’d pull the car into the gas station to fill’r up. You pumped the gas into the bowl up on top and let it drain into your tank. Six gallons, 90 cents!”

Man: “I was in the Korean Conflict and spent the whole time typing up requisitions for new parts at Ft. Hood, Texas, because of the typing class I took right here in Selma, Ioway.”

Man: “I started to school in 1947 and rode a horse-drawn school bus with a kerosene heater. It was so cold, we’d get out and walk beside the bus to warm up. One girl had her hair freeze. Later in life, I told this story to some folks out east. They were incredulous. They had gone to school in the thirties in an motorized bus, and had never even seen a horse-drawn school bus.”

Family pet-sitter helps herself to homeowner’s possessions DEAR ABBY: A trusted and beloved family member who takes care of my cats — and therefore has a key to my house — has been stealing things like cleaning supplies, knickknacks, family pictures, etc. Most of them have little monetary value. But imagine my surprise when I spotted some of my missing seashell collection in her fish tank!

Naturally, I can’t accuse her of taking things like seashells that anyone can pick up free on the beach, but I select ones with distinct markings, which is why I know they are mine. It’s frustrating to run out of toothpaste and find that the spare tube I just bought is missing. It’s not like she doesn’t have the money to buy her own.

She does so much for me and my kids. Should I just continue to ignore it? — SEASHELLS BY THE SEASHORE DEAR S.B.T.S.: Your family member may have a touch of kleptomania — a compulsion to steal — or perhaps she takes the items because she feels entitled to “payment” for the favors she does for you.

If you confront her, she will probably deny it. This is not to imply that you must continue putting up with it until she takes something with greater sentimental (or tangible) value. Ask her to return your key “because you have made other arrangements to care for your cats,” or change your locks. Then follow through with someone who won’t take advantage of your trust.

DEAR ABBY: My wife is a big woman (not fat). She’s an athlete and quite strong. We both enjoy wrestling.

We are evenly matched and do it often.

Many times she’ll pin me down with me on my back, shoulders to the ground. Other times, I do the same to her. The loser takes the winner out to dinner. We enjoy it greatly.

Are we crazy? Are we weird? And

most of all, are we alone in this activity?

— HAPPY HUSBAND IN FLORIDA DEAR HAPPY HUSBAND: As long as no one gets hurt, what two consenting adults do is their business.

I don’t think you are either crazy or weird, nor are you alone in this activity. What you have described as “wrestling” some people call “foreplay.”

DEAR ABBY: Can you advise me on how to respond to comments from younger men when I am at dinner or out with friends? I often get “Wow, you are really good looking for an older woman!” which I find vaguely insulting even though they may think it’s a compliment. I’m in good shape for my age (48), but my husband agrees it’s rude.

I’m at a loss for a snappy comeback and usually so embarrassed that I just turn away and pretend that I didn’t hear. Am I overly sensitive? Should I be thanking them? That doesn’t feel right. Any witty responses you think would be good? — SPEECHLESS IN SAN DIEGO DEAR SPEECHLESS: A left-handed compliment is one that has two meanings — one of which is not flattering to the recipient. Because you find it offensive, say, “I may look ‘older’ to you, but I’m not so old I consider that to be a compliment.”

Charges dropped in port-a-potty sex assault

4 Mission to cut back services

for homeless in Cedar Rapids

2

IOWA CITY — A judge has dismissed charges filed against a Coralville man accused of sexually assaulting a woman inside a port-a-potty near the University of Iowa’s Kinnick Stadium.

The judge last week ruled that prosecutors failed to bring 53-year-old Ronald Williams to trial in a timely fashion. Williams had been charged with kidnapping, assault with intent to commit sexual abuse and other crimes. He’d pleaded not guilty.

CEDAR RAPIDS — An official says a nonprofit that helps the homeless in Cedar Rapids will have to trim services next month because money is tight.

Mission of Hope receives no government funding, so it must depend on donations. Next month it will operate its food pantry, clothes closet and community meal program for just four days a week instead of the usual six. The mission’s homeless shelter will not be affected by the shutdown schedule.

DES MOINES — Authorities said a man leading a car chase in central Iowa reached speeds of more than 100 mph before his vehicle flew off the road and into an auto auction lot.

Sgt. Joel Ehler of the Iowa State Patrol says a trooper was pursuing the vehicle Wednesday near Waukee when the car increased its speed to more than 100 mph while passing other cars. The car flew off a highway ramp before entering a ditch and landing in an auto auction lot.

MASON CITY — Federal authorities believe a man who used an assault rifle to rob a credit union in Iowa is the “AK-47 Bandit” believed to have held up banks in several states and wounded a police officer in California. Authorities say a man entered the Iowa Heartland Credit Union in Mason City on Tuesday wearing a black ski mask.

He was armed with an AK-47 and left with an undisclosed amount of money.

Welcome Home to Newton

Wellness Coalition planning Thanks with Franks activity

By Jamee A. Pierson Newton Daily News

Jamee A. Pierson/Daily News The first Get to Know Newton Welcome Package was presented to Jason and Ashley Carter, who purchased a home in Fountain Hills Estates. Development Specialist Craig Armstrong, Housing Coordinator Amanda Price, NHDC President Jennifer Cook and Farver True Value Owner Scot Farver were on hand to present the package which is valued at nearly $4,000.

The welcome package consists of locally donated products and services including four 2016 season passes to Iowa Speedway, a one-year family membership to the YMCA, a Toro lawnmower from Farver True Value Hardware and a membership to Maytag Pool, among many other valuable goods.

The Carters are both teachers in the Newton Community School District and previously lived in Knoxville with their two daughters.

Perry dials back Christian appeal in Iowa, cites job record CLEAR LAKE (AP) — Rick Perry bragged to an Iowa barbecue crowd about the strong economy back in Texas, drew laughs comparing President Barack Obama to Jimmy Carter and won applause vowing to secure the U.S.-Mexico border. But in a state where evangelicals wield political influence, he didn’t mention religion until 25 minutes into his address, and only then

when asked about it.

“Nothing against golf, but on Sunday morning, you’re not going to see me at the golf course,” Perry quipped about his unwavering church attendance.

The former Texas governor’s devout Christian beliefs were a centerpiece of his short-lived 2012 White House bid but are an afterthought in his second-chance campaign

across Iowa.

While Republican rivals Mike Huckabee, Rick Santorum and Ted Cruz are pushing hard to mobilize the conservative evangelical vote, Perry prefers to trumpet his 14 years of executive experience leading the second most populous state. In a field with few military veterans, he also speaks about his five years in the Air Force.

The Newton Wellness Coalition plans to participate in Thanks with Franks again this year, with a slightly different activity the group decided Wednesday.

To encourage exercise and give kids an activity to participate in, the group plans to have an obstacle course at the event with a prize at the end.

“It’s mostly little people, ages 3 to 10, so it isn’t that difficult,” said coalition member Sheri Benson.

The group participated in the event last year as well. They had a balloon popping activity where a child would select a balloon, pop it and inside would be a quick activity to do, such as jumping jacks or push ups. They each received a prize for their efforts.

“I thought it went really well last year, it was fun,” said Jenny Thompson, coalition member.

Another activity the group participated in recently was the Newton Fourth of July parade. Like last year, the group handed out bananas along the parade route, as well as bags of almonds, to offer a healthy option to the patrons.

“I heard a lot of good things about us doing that again — people really think it is great,” member Nathan Unsworth, said.

The group tweaked its technique this year, having a trailer hold the bananas, which were donated by Hy-Vee and Walmart, instead of pushing them in a cart.

That gave those handing them out a better opportunity to reach more members in the crowd and not get behind in the parade.

“It really went well,” Unsworth said.

An event the group started earlier this summer will receive some changes. Newton Talks was an event where local community members spoke about

their wellness journeys, whether it be weight loss or living with a disease.

Although they were very pleased with the speakers, the turnout was not a high as they hoped. The final talk planned for July was canceled and the group began searching for new ideas to get the stories to a wider audience.

An idea the coalition had earlier was to attach the talks to an event already planned, which they did at a YMCA event with much success. That idea remains in play along with video taping the speakers and putting them on YouTube for easier access to the public.

“All the stories were really great; we just didn’t reach people,” Unsworth said. “By videotaping, we could reach more people.”

Did You Know...

Carpet doesn’t have to look dirty to be “dirty”. Well-maintained carpets make a big difference in how your home smells. Carpets act as a giant air filter by attracting dirt and allergens. Eventually, the fibers become “clogged” and lose their ability to attract and hold contaminants. The E.P.A. recommends cleaning your carpets every 6 to 12 months under normal conditions. Even more with pets and children!

Rhodes works into Xfinity youth movement Saturday’s U.S. Cellular 250 is 2015 finale for Iowa Speedway

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News Ben Rhodes made his NASCAR Xfinity Series debut at Iowa Speedway in May. Rhodes drove the No. 88 Alpha Energy Solutions Chevrolet of JR Motorsports to a seventh-place finish.

The JR Motorsports team placed all three of its cars in the top 11 led by 2014 Xfinity Series champion Chase Elliott in second and Regan Smith in 11th.

Since the 3M 250, Rhodes, who missed his high school graduation in May to race at Iowa Speedway, has two more starts in the No. 88. Rhodes will be back on the Iowa 7/8mile track this weekend competing in the U.S. Cellular 250 presented by New Holland.

Xfinity Series drivers have practices Friday at 3:30 p.m. and 6 p.m. The U.S. Cellular 250 qualifying is at 3:45 p.m.

Saturday with the race at 7 p.m. Driver introductions are at 6:30 p.m.

“I’ve been learning from the other drivers on the JR Motorsports team,” Rhodes said. “I was confident going into the first race at Iowa in May, but I made a few mistakes. It was different than driving a K&N Series car.”

Rhodes said Iowa Speedway is one of his favorite

NASCAR Photo Ben Rhodes, 18, climbs into the JR Motorsports No. 88 Alpha Energy Solutions Chevrolet for Saturday’s U.S. Cellular 250 at Iowa Speedway. The Louisville, Ky., native made his NASCAR Xfinity Series debut in May at Iowa Speedway and Saturday’s race is his fourth start of the season.

tracks to race on, and it has a challenging surface with the bumps. Before the May Xfinity race, Rhodes had four starts at Iowa Speedway in the K&N Pro Series, winning in May 2014. He won the K&N Pro Series East championship and was rookie of the year in 2014.

“It’s got character. I’m su-

per excited to come back to Iowa this weekend because of the track and the atmosphere there. The fans are great and there’s always great racing on the track,” Rhodes said. “I’m more confident this time. I’ve got three Xfinity races under my belt. We have a great team with Chase and Regan. We’re

collaborating to know the best set up for our cars on true Iowa Speedway track.”

Rhodes, Elliott and Smith will challenge Xfinity Series points leader Chris Buescher, who claimed his first victory of the 2015 season in May at Iowa. Buescher left Iowa in May with an eight-point lead

over Ty Dillon, but returns Saturday with a 25-point lead over Elliott. Dillon sits in third place down by 30 points and Smith is fourth down by 51 points.

Buescher used a strong restart to beat Elliott in May on a green-white-checker finish.

Buescher drives for Roush Fenway Racing in the No. 60 Mustang. Two-time defending champion of the U.S. Cellular 250 Brad Keselowski is not entered in this year’s race.

Rhodes had his best finish of his three races at Iowa in May. In June, he drove the No. 88 to a 21st finish at Chicago, and two weeks ago, Rhodes was 12th at New Hampshire after suffering a flat tire.

“I have a foundation to use coming into this weekend’s race at Iowa. The biggest thing I’m learning is how to handle the tires for the car,” Rhodes said. “The condition progression of tires is something as a driver I have to be aware of at all times. How tires changes between the heat cycles of a race weekend.

“The No. 88 Alpha Energy Solutions Chevy has been fast enough for better finishes, but I made mistakes in all three races. I’m learning. I need to limit my mistakes during a race and improve as the season goes along.”

Troy Hyde/Daily News From left: Brandon McReynolds (16), William Byron (9), Scott Heckert (34), Jesse Little (97) and Ronnie Bassett Jr. (04) race in the K&N Pro Series’ Casey’s General Stores 150 back on May 16 at Iowa Speedway. Byron led for 128 laps, but McReynolds stole the win after a late pass on a restart with eight laps to go.

Young Byron motivated by May’s runner-up finish

By Troy Hyde Newton Daily News Back on May 16, 17-yearold William Byron did everything but win the K&N Pro Series East-West combination race at Iowa Speedway.

Byron was the fastest qualifier, and he led 128 of the 150 laps.

But the youngest got passed by Brandon McReynolds on restart with eight laps to go and settled for second.

Friday, Byron looks for redemption, and another chance, when the K&N Pro

Series drivers return to Iowa Speedway for the #ThanksKenny 150.

“It definitely felt bittersweet,” Byron said. “We led a lot of laps, but it motivates us to be even better this weekend. And we hope to keep the momentum we have right now.”

Byron’s momentum has come after winning two of the last three East races. He is the current K&N Pro Series East points leader with 331, 29 clear of Austin Hill. Byron has four wins this season and has been in the top five in five

of the eight races and in the top 10 for 6-of-8.

Byron had the best car back in May during the Casey’s General Stores 150. But when his team checked out his No. 9 Liberty University Chevrolet, they discovered Byron was 10 pounds of air down in his tires.

“We won’t make excuses because we could have made a few more adjustments during the break, but if we were firing on all cylinders and had better tire pressure, it would have been tough to catch us.

“It was our first time at

(Iowa Speedway), so we didn’t exactly know what adjustments to make, but it was good to get the East win and second overall.”

Iowa is the only track on the series’ schedule that features drivers from both the East and the West.

It gives the drivers a chance to test their abilities against an even bigger field, and it presents itself more like a Sprint Cup race, according to Byron.

Drivers from the West Series have only won twice in 12 combination races, but the second victory was from

McReynolds back in May. West points leader Chris Eggleston hopes it’s a trend that can continue this weekend.

“There’s a lot of talk out there about how the East drivers are further along than the West guys,” said Eggleston, who is McReynolds’ teammate. “It was nice to see Brandon win the race back in May, and it’s exciting to go up against those guys twice a year. Hopefully we can prove we have some talent, too.”

All-State softball honors bestowed on seven area players

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News Newton High’s Sydney Jenkins and six area high school softball players were recognized with all-state honors by the Iowa Girls Coaches Association. The IGCA announced its 2015 All-State Softball Teams this week.

Jenkins, a junior, was named to the Class 4A second team.

Lynnville-Sully’s senior pitcher Madison Rasmusson and junior second baseman Kasiah Ehresman received All-State Class 1A first-team honors. Senior center fielder Lysandra James was named to the 1A third team.

Prairie City-Monroe’s se-

nior Molly Vignovich earned Class 3A second-team allstate honors.

Senior Rachel Freland received thirdteam recognition.

In Class 2A, Jenkins Collins-Maxwell/Baxter sophomore Abbey Kahler was named to the allstate third team.

Jenkins led the Cardinals in all offensive categories during the 2015 season. She led the team in hitting for the third straight season. Her .500 batting average was 10th best in 4A. She owned a .830 slugging percentage, which

Sports Xfinity Continued from Page 1B

Rhodes said it has been tough to get into a rhythm as a driver this season only having three races of his 10race schedule under his belt. He said he has been going to all the races to watch Kevin Harvick drive the No. 88 in Xfinity races, plus learning from Harvick, Dale Earnhardt Jr. an Kasey Kahne as they drive in the Sprint Cup races.

“What an opportunity I have to learn from some of the best drivers in the sport, including my JR Motorsports teammates Chase and Regan.

They have been great,” he said.

“Our whole No. 88 team has been great to work with this season. I’m looking forward to my schedule picking up pace after Iowa. As a driver, you want as much time in the car as possible and develop that rhythm to improve — and win, maybe.”

When he isn’t driving in a race or at a race, the Louisville, Ky. native said he uses a race simulator to hone his skills. He said he has a fitness routine to keep his fitness level up.

“I’m ready to be on the track more following this Iowa race. We have a couple of road course races, which I’m not familiar with coming up. The good thing is the races for me will be closer together, and I’ll get more time in the car. I’m excited about that and

www.newtondailynews.com | Thursday | July 30, 2015 using the knowledge I’ve gotten from my teammates out there in a race,” Rhodes said.

Rhodes goes to Watkins Glen International at Watkins Glen, N.Y., on Aug. 8 and Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course at Lexington, Ohio, on Aug. 15. He said he feels comfortable in the new car and “it’s my new home.”

Rhodes, 18, is in the youth movement thriving in NASCAR. He said moving from the K&N Pro Series to the Xfinity has been a good fit for him.

“I grew up watching the sport. The older drivers are beginning to retire like my idle, Jeff Gordon, and young drivers like Chase Elliott to move in and make their own legacy,” he said.

“We’re looking for new and young fans to come to the race and develop interest in the sport.

“We are seeing more and more young fans at the race track. As a young driver, I really enjoy seeing that happening. One of the reasons I love this sport is the challenges it presents. As you move up a level, there are more challenges. I like that. Of course, there’s the pure adrenaline rush of getting in the car and the speed on the track.”

Fans can flock to Iowa Speedway this weekend to watch the younger drivers in NASCAR compete. The K&N Pro Series East/West race — the #ThanksKenny 150 — is at 8 p.m.

Friday. The Xfinity Series U.S. Cellular 250 runs at 7 p.m. Saturday.

Newton Daily News

Troy Hyde/Daily News William Byron, left, and James Bickford celebrate strong runs in K&N Pro Series qualifying in May at Iowa Speedway. Byron and Bickford started 1-2 in the Casey’s General Stores 150 and both hope to be just as good this weekend when the series returns to Newton.

Speedway Continued from Page 1B Eggleston was running well in the first race at Iowa Speedway, but two flat tires forced him into a 15th-place finish.

He started 11th, which he hopes to improve this time around.

“We had a better race car than we showed during the first race,” said Eggleston, who holds a one-point lead on Noah Gragson. “We’re excited to run our new set up and see how things go. Hopefully we can qualify better and get into the mix earlier.”

Eggleston took over the West Eggleston points lead after claiming his second triumph of the year.

The lead grew to as large as 19 points, but two subpar efforts in the last two weekends have allowed other drivers to close the gap.

The top five guys in the standings are only separated by 13 points. Eggleston has 274 points, Gragson 273 and Gracin Raz is third with 271. Ryan Partridge (267) and David Mayhew (261) are fourth and fifth, respectively.

“This is a huge weekend for our No. 99 Napa Auto Parts Toyota Camry team,” Eggleston said.

Byron is a favorite for the K&N Sunoco Rookie of the Year award.

Byron also plans to drive full-time in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series next year. But he would like to claim a points title and win at Iowa Speedway before that happens.

Hill trails Byron by 29 points and is four points better than Scott Heckert (298) in the East standings.

Kyle Benjamin (288) is fourth and Dalton Sargeant (285) is fifth. Hill, Heckert and Benjamin each have one win this year.

“We have never been to any of these tracks before, but we just know what to look for,” Byron said. “We have good communication from the whole race team and we have a lot of confidence right now.”

The #ThanksKenny 150 goes green at 8 p.m. Friday.

The title is a tribute to Kenny Wallace, who will make his 547th and final NASCAR Xfinity Series start on Saturday at Iowa Speedway.

Chevrolet has won seven of the 12 combination races at Iowa Speedway, while Toyota has four wins and Ford has one just once.

Astrograph

The line between good business practice and generosity gets blurred with the moon’s crossing from ambitious Capricorn into philanthropic Aquarius. Free is an attractive price, but often it attracts way too many and too random a customer. That’s why it’s wise to put a different price on what you offer, one that’s appropriate for your target.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (July 30). You momentarily may have lost sight of your goal in recent weeks, but your solar return brings it back in shining glory. Your efforts with fellow fire signs create swift momentum. You’ll take control and

lead your group to revitalization. Astounding luck in September brings funding to fulfill a wish. Passion fills 2016.

Scorpio and Capricorn people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 3, 29, 1, 44 and 17.

ARIES (March 21-April 19).

Even the proudest individual usually has at least one person he or she looks up to. That’s the one you need to connect with to influence the egomaniac in your life.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

There’s an easy fix for the flat times in an all-too-familiar relationship. Forget about life’s pesky details, and focus on

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

Fear is only what you think, not what is. Writing your fear down or talking it over with a reasonable friend will help you see just how silly a certain fear is. You’ll laugh and then let it go.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

Passivity is not weakness. Nine times out of 10, an assertive response is overkill. Today you’ll win friends and fans while doing what the situation requires and no more than that.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).

Remember that time when you didn’t know you were on

speakerphone and you accidentally said things not meant for certain company? Well, today brings the chance to rectify that, or at least to not make the same mistake twice.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

Familiarity can blind you to how someone really is. That’s why spending time with outsiders can have an enormously (and in your case pleasantly) enlightening effect.

There will be applications for your artistry all day long.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

Vulnerability may repel some people, but it attracts the right people. Because you’re brave enough to be honest about what you’re going through and the help you need, you’ll find what you’re looking for.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22Dec. 21). The things you worry about seldom happen.

However, it still benefits you to prepare for the worst-case scenario. For starters, it makes you grateful for the positive way things pan out.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Someone would have you believe that today’s opportunity is as rare as a yellow diamond.

False! So put back your money, ask questions, poke around.

There’s no need to be too precious in your approach.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

People insist on making simple things more complicated for a variety of reasons, such as fear of boredom, an aversion to silence or a desperate need to avoid self-confrontation.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

The mystical “third eye” is what you’re using to see the truth about a relationship. You are also, perhaps unknowingly, applying a “third ear” to pick up the song in your loved one’s heart.
