School board hires group for consulting on SAMs

By Jason W. Brooks Newton Daily News

Jamee A. Pierson/Daily News Crews continue working to demolish houses in 300 block of East Fourth Street North Wednesday morning that were purchased through the D&D program. The program, which is coming to the end of its funding, will move onto its next phase of redevelopment and new construction for lots the city now owns.

Following successful D&D program, city looks to redevelopment

By Jamee A. Pierson Newton Daily News Through the Dangerous and Dilapidated program, the city has demolished 48 properties to date, according to Erin Chambers, director of Planning and Zoning, who addressed the Newton City Council Monday.

Since the program began two years ago, it has been one of the most visible examples of the efforts the city is making to clean up problem areas, she said.

“We’ve done a lot of work in the D&D program and now we are moving into the next phase of the program. The vast majority of the funding that has been set aside has been utilized,” Chambers said.

The city has been successfully utilizing three primary tools

on the blighted properties — the low-cost purchase of the property and demolition, petitioning the court for ownership of abandoned buildings and the use of Chambers notice and order under the 1997 Uniform Code for the Abatement of Dangerous Buildings.

“Of those 48 properties the city has or will be taking ownership of about 36 of those properties,” Chambers said. “The purpose of the D&D program isn’t to grow the amount of property held by the city government, rather it seeks to eventually return the property back to the tax base.”

To date, the city has sold or agreed to sell five properties in the program. The funds from those sales are then returned back to the program to be utilized on other dilapidated homes.

“As a result of the recent D&D efforts, several larger redevelopment footprints have emerged.

For these assembled footprints, staff is working on development concepts that can be used to market the areas to potential developers,” Chambers said.

An example of assembled footprints are found in the 300 block of East Fourth Street North, the 1400 and 1500 block of East Sixth Street South, the 1000 block of East Eighth Street North and the 900 block of East Ninth Street North.

After the Newton Community School District board of education had new members and its officers sworn in at last week’s regular meeting, it was time to move on to some financial issues.

One of the board’s first acts at the meeting was to extend, for 2015-16, an operating agreement with the School Administrators of Iowa, whom NCSD will pay nearly $16,000 for school-administrator consulting services. The district used SAI’s services last year, and Superintendent Bob Callaghan said Newton personnel speak very highly of the impact from the training provided during the 201415 school year.

SAI is an organization of more than 2,000 Iowa educational ad-

ministrators whose stated mission is to “support, encourage and develop Iowa’s educational leaders and learners.”

The organization provides training for school administration managers and others in leadership positions, who are learning about nuances of school management.

“With the district’s direction toward SAMs, and the school principals feeling this is of great benefit, this will be a continuation into the second year of the project,” Callaghan said.

“We feel it’s been extremely valuable.”

“One of our building principals (Lisa Sharp of Berg Middle School) would like to expand that, and she has added a Level II SAM to the project, and that is identified in this agreement,” Callaghan said.

The Jasper County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday approved Jasper County Elderly Nutrition to use excess funds to purchase shelf-stable and frozen meals. The meals would be purchased using $9,300 in carryover funds that was distributed to the county.

“I would like to spend a portion of it on shelf-stable meals. We’ve done this in the past.

They are meals that we can give to our clients, they can be put on a shelf and if we are closed due to weather and if they don’t have electricity and can’t use a microwave, they can pull the meals out, open the can and eat it as is,” project manager Kelli Van Manen said.

Trent Childers to lead program on addiction

By Jamee A. Pierson Newton Daily News Millions of people are affected by addiction every year.

Alcohol and drug abuse, gambling, pornography and other vices consume relationships, destroy marriages and ruin lives.

In an effort to help battle the addictions, former addict Trent Childers, author of “Pressing Forward,” will be at the Jasper County Church of Christ for a free four day Bible-based addiction recovery program beginning Oct. 11.

“By God’s grace, I was able to write a book, ‘Pressing Forward: Bible Based Addiction Recovery.’ It is meant to be more than a book, though. We believe that addiction is a spiritual problem, therefore the territory of the church. Addicts need to find hope and peace in Jesus Christ,” Childers said.

The program starts Oct. 11 with three sessions, the first at 9:30 a.m. is called Modeling Outreach of Jesus. The second focuses on Overcoming Pharisaism and begins at 10:30 a.m. with the final session of the day at 1:30 p.m., titled Helping or Hurting. Also that day the church, 1100 N. Third Ave. E., will be having a picnic as an opportunity get better acquainted with Childers.

He will host three additional sessions at 7 p.m. Oct. 12-14.

Those sessions are titled, Jesus is the Answer, Pressing Forward and Living Love.

“He has written this program based off of AA but is showing scripture from the Bible to say how applicable it is to our lives today,” the Rev. Fred Rhodes said.

The program will be styled similarly to a church service with a sermon given by Childers and a question and answer period to follow. It is open to the community of Newton and free with only a collection taken at the 10:30 a.m. service.

“Every family in Newton is directly affected by additions either in their family or in their

extended family or their neighbors. He is not only speaking to addicts but people that are dealing with addicts,” Dorothy Rhodes said.

A Tennessee native, Childers struggled with drug addiction until he made a commitment to get help in 2004. He has since graduated from Amridge University with a degree in biblical studies and believes his past struggles with addiction, his biblical training and his faith in Christ have compelled him to help.

He wrote the book “Pressing Forward” in 2014 as a way to offer freedom to those who are

lost in addiction. The book is divided into three sections that define addiction, offers biblical counsel about overcoming addiction and leads to a life of faithfulness to Jesus. It will be used during the program and will be available for purchase to those who attend.

Pope Francis arrives in US, faces a polarized country WASHINGTON (AP) — Pope Francis arrived Tuesday on the first visit of his life to the United States, bringing his “church of the poor” to the world’s wealthiest superpower and a country polarized over issues closest to his heart: immigration, social injustice and economic inequality.

According a rare honor to the pontiff, President Barack Obama and his wife and daughters welcomed Francis on the red-carpeted tarmac at Andrews Air Force Base in Maryland, just outside the nation’s capital, after the pope’s chartered plane touched

down from Cuba. Presidents usually make important visitors come to them at the White House.

Emerging from the plane to boisterous cheers from a crowd of hundreds, the 78-year-old pontiff removed his skullcap in the windy weather and made his way down the steps in his white robes. He was met by a military honor guard, schoolchildren, politicians, and Roman Catholic clergymen in black robes and brightly colored sashes.

During his six-day, three-city visit to the U.S., the pope will meet with

the president, address Congress, speak at the United Nations in New York and take part in a Vatican-sponsored conference on the family in Philadelphia.

The Argentine known as the “slum pope” for ministering to the downtrodden in his native Buenos Aires is expected to urge America to take better care of the environment and the poor and return to its founding ideals of religious liberty and open arms toward immigrants.

During the flight, Francis defended himself against conservative criti-

cism of his economic views. He told reporters aboard the plane that some explanations of his writings may have given the impression that he’s “a little bit more left-leaning.” But he said such explanations are wrong, and he is only repeating church doctrine.

Francis’ enormous popularity, propensity for wading into crowds and insistence on using an open-sided Jeep rather than a bulletproof popemobile have complicated things for U.S. law enforcement, which has mounted one of the biggest security operations in American history to keep him safe.

Chamber of Commerce sponsors Magnetic Main Street fundraiser Newton Daily News The Second annual Magnetic Main Street fundraiser, sponsored by the Greater Newton Area Chamber of Commerce, will be at 5 p.m.

Thursday on the north side of the courthouse square.

Donors can win gift certificates from area restaurants and businesses, tickets to entertainment venues and more.

More than 250 prize packages are available with prizes totaling more than $4,000 in value.

SAMs Continued from Page 1A Stephanie Langstradt was hired this summer to come from the Prairie City-Monroe district to Newton to become an assistant principal at the middle school. Board member Robyn Friedman asked which BMS staff member would be preparing to take on more SAM responsibilities, with Callaghan replied that it would be Betty Buckley.

Principals and assistant principals are near-

Meals Continued from Page 1A use those instead of our sack lunches that we send out on holidays,” Van Manen said. “It will be a little adjustment, we can’t send out five at a time because a lot of our clients wouldn’t have freezer space to do that. We have the money we might as well try that and see how it goes.”

The frozen meals will be purchased from GA Foods located in St. Petersburg, Fla. Also approved was the designation of a section of Mission Avenue to be changed from a level “B” road to a level “C” road. The county had received requests from adjacent landowners that the road change classification, enabling the county to put up

“We had such a good time with the event last year we had to do it again,” said Karen Liebl, Newton Main Street Organization committee member. “It is really fun to watch people react to the prizes they win, especially when they win a big one.”

Donors pay $5 for the chance to select a magnet from the Iowa Speedway pace car, which will be parked on N. Second Ave. W. before and after the Newton High School Homecoming Parade. Each magnet is

coded to a prize package.

Each prize package has a value of $5 or greater.

Proceeds from the event will support Newton Main Street’s downtown revitalization projects.

“Donors get awesome prizes. Prize packages show off what area businesses have to offer and help businesses develop clientele. Donations fund Main Street projects,” Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Craig Light said. “It’s a win-win-win for everybody.”

ly always former teachers, and must have state credentialing to take on those jobs. However, a SAM is a newer, hybrid type of role, more geared toward staff and student management throughout a school day than with helping implement class curricula.

Callaghan explained that the SAM role is somewhat custom-tailored to the qualifications of the leadership at each building — especially as it pertains to training provided by SAI. While Buckley is not a teacher — she is a long-

time veteran school office staff member — Callaghan said Sharp feels strongly about utilizing her in the SAM role.

Sharp was not present for last week’s discussion.

Callaghan explained SAMs of varying levels of experience and post-graduate education are being used in different ways on various Newton campus administration teams. For example, Thomas Jefferson Elementary School has a first-year SAM in Trisca Mick, who is new to the district, while Mike Moran, who was a SAM at

Berg Elementary School last year, is continuing on that campus as a “level two” SAM this year.

“Ms. Buckley’s case is a little different, because she isn’t an administrator,” Callaghan explained. “I’ll be honest with you — it’s an experiment. We jumped off on it last year and found great results. We’re taking a little bit of a leap of faith that this will also provide the same benefits.”

Friedman asked if the board could receive an update and more detailed explanation at an

gates and keep people of the road that had been doing damage to their property.

Once reclassified, the county is no longer responsible for blading or dragging on a regular basis, snow and ice removal along with sanding and salting on a regular basis and bridges may not be maintained to carry legal loads. The shoulder, crown, repairs, uniform width and inspections will not be maintained or done on a regular basis. Gates will be purchased, installed and maintained by the county for the road.

Continued from Page 1A The city recently bought 415 N. Fourth Ave. E., the last of seven properties in an area primed for new construction.

For more than a year, the city has analyzed the area as part of the process of setting a strategy for neighborhood improvements through demolition.

“Our building professional Melvin Duncan has worked with Jack Topp of OPN Architects to come up with a design concept for this redevelopment area,” Chambers said. Potential plans include two duplexes and a four-plex.

In addition to the redevelopment footprints, about a dozen individual lots remain, of which about half have potential for redevelopment. Beginning this fall, the city will initiate communication with property owners

adjacent to the properties that are not considered for redevelopment due to size or other constraints.

“It would be hoped that those properties could be sold to adjacent property owners, relieving the city of the maintenance liability,” Chambers said.

The city plans to create concept site plans that show potential developers the building size and a potential layout for the properties that are considered for redevelopment. Also, it plans to collaborate with fellow organizations, such as the Newton Housing Development Corporation, to bring home builders to the lots.

“We’re really excited about what we have been able to accomplish for the last several years through D&D and excited to see what is coming forward,” Chambers said.

Council Member Noreen Otto said the money designat-

funds will come out of the general fund, and the district administrative team has budgeted for the expense. There are provisions in the agreement for mileage and out-of-town and overnight travel, but Callaghan said those are not major components of the SAI training.

“Most of the training comes to us,” he said.

ed for the program was almost completely used, and wondered if that meant the end of identifying properties to be demolished. Chambers said they are not reaching the end of identifying properties and she still has a handful of properties that can be addressed should money return to the program from selling lots.

“For all intents and purposes, this round of work is complete,” Chambers said.

“This is such an obvious, visible project to the citizens of Newton and I think people have really been encouraged by what they have seen the program do,” Otto said. “I think what will be even more encouraging will be when we see the first foundations be poured and structures go up that are new and updated and modern. This is very exciting.”

Some celebs can’t be ‘normal’

By Jason. W. Brooks Staff Writer

www.newtondailynews.com | Wednesday | Sept. 23, 2015

There is no retreating into a so-called normal life for certain celebrities — but there should be.

While some celebrities return to earth — especially if they were ordinary citizens before a brief moment in the spotlight — others are on another level of visibility for all or most of their lives.

Some of the presidential candidates I’ve covered have traveled with almost no security. Others, such as Hillary Clinton, travel with heavy security. Certain leaders, such as Clinton, will have U.S. Secret Service protection or similar for the rest of their lives — which puts some distance between themselves and most citizens, on many levels.

When Clinton made an appearance at DMACC’s Newton Campus and Uncle Nancy’s Coffee House and Eatery earlier this month, she brought with her the tightest web of human security forces available to a person in the U.S., with the exception of possibly a sitting president.

Clinton will never know a

“normal” life, which seems to keep someone from really understanding how most of us live.

It made me wonder if that makes it nearly impossible for someone in Clinton’s position to relate to regular folks, or if those levels of insulation are needed in order to give someone the confidence to complete their role as a “famous person.”

Not everyone whose name is well-known gets around the country the way a former First Lady travels. Rick Santorum is known to many Americans, especially in Iowa and his home state of Pennsylvania However, when Santorum arrived at DMACC for an Aug. 31 economic round-table discussion (which turned out to be mostly brief complaints or questions from area entrepreneurs and Santorum then bragging about what he did in Congress), he was dropped off at the curb by the driver of an unassuming white SUV. He walked up to the east entrance by himself, and I was the only one outdoors

to greet him.

The former U.S. Senator shook my hand, and asked me where the Newton Development meeting room was located.

Dressed casually, Santorum could blend in visually, and probably connects with people better than most people that have many layers of security and regulations inhibiting their interactions.

While Santorum can laugh and joke and make regular conversation, and probably spends enough time traveling in rural areas to actually have extended conversations that are not about him or his campaign, he still has the money and notoriety to live basically how he likes.

Santorum is on a sort of an in-between level of fame, where he can probably say his own name and get certain things to happen or not happen, but can still go into a grocery store in many states without being instantly recognized.

Then there are those who can probably turn fame on or off as

needed, at least at this stage of their lives. Jessica McClure Morales, for example, is best known to most of us as “Baby Jessica,” who fell into a well in her aunt’s backyard in Midland, Texas in 1987, prompting a 58-hour national media watch in the 58 hours it took to rescue her.

Now 29, Morales is fairly set thanks to a trust fund, although most of us haven’t seen her as an adult. She can probably go most places without being noticed. She lives only a few miles from the house where the well incident occurred, so anyone in Midland who has wanted to meet her wouldn’t have to look very far.

Mike Huckabee seemed much different in person than he did when the cameras are rolling. Is a “famous persona” needed in order to remain famous? It seems that way.

Letters to the Editor

Clinton will strengthen rural health care Cindy Pollard Newton While nearly one-sixth of Americans live in rural areas, only one-tenth of physicians practice in rural communities. We desperately need to expand rural access to health care through strengthening our country’s telemedicine

End the silence Ron Berg Iowa City Two-thirds of American families have been touched by addiction. Think about that. It is a staggering statistic. It means that a large majority of us have a family member, co-worker, neighbor or friend who has struggled with substance abuse. And yet, we don’t talk about it openly like any other type of chronic illness.

The subject is plagued by myths and overwhelming misinformation. “He did this to himself.” “She could stop if she really wanted to.”

“He has no moral compass.“ How often have these and similar judgments entered your thoughts when confronted with addiction?

system.

Hillary Clinton understands this. Earlier this month in Iowa, she talked about how she would strengthen rural America, and a key component of that plan is to harness public resources and private innovation to expand telehealth and information technology to benefit patients in rural areas and all over the country.

Her plan to support rural America focuses by further integrating

telehealth, remote patient monitoring and other information technologies.

She is committed to exploring cost-effective ways to broaden the scope of health care providers eligible for telehealth reimbursement under Medicare and other programs, including federally qualified health centers and rural health clinics. As a retired nurse living in a rural community, I have just two words: thank you.

This is stigma. Stigma not only keeps people from seeking help, it also hurts those who are living successfully in recovery.

Recovery is real, and it’s everywhere. More than 23 million Americans are living in recovery from substance abuse. At Prelude, we feel privileged to witness recovery every day. By sharing our stories and talking freely about recovery, we can break down the stigma and encourage others to seek help. Together, we can end the silence and bring the promise and the reality of recovery out into the open.

September is National Recovery Month. For the first time ever, there will be a march on the National Mall in Washington, D.C. “Unite To Face Addiction” will take place on Oct. 4. Details

about the march can be found at www.iamnotanonymous.org.

Prelude is joining this national movement to end the silence and stand up for recovery through an on-line project with our clients.

The Prelude Project features personal discoveries made by individuals in recovery and stories of success. Follow The Prelude Project on Facebook and Twitter (#voicesofsubstance and #preludevoices) and Pinterest. If you or someone you know would like to submit a personal recovery story, we encourage everyone to go to the link on our homepage at www.preludeiowa.org.

Recovery is all of us. Speak up, and encourage others to do so as well. When we end the silence, we help so many others begin their recovery journey.

California is the land of hypocrites.

As I pulled into the parking lot adjacent to my radio station in Los Angeles, I noticed a Mercedes R500 s i t t i n g By Ben Shapiro next to me. Between the Mercedes symbol and the R500 label sat a big, fat bumper sticker: “BERNIE SANDERS 2016.”

The Mercedes R500 retailed at $71,000 back in 2006, when the welloff young gentledriver’s parents presumably purchased it. Now, their kid pulls up to the pricey Equinox gym (sticker price: $160 per month) with a bumper sticker touting the virtues of redistribution of wealth.

This is the privileged generation of Americans. They’ve been able to benefit from the free markets of their parents; they can afford to purchase Fine water to sip while running on the world’s highest-end ellipticals, then clean off beneath the rain shower head before heading out to brunch at Gracias Madre. Then, that night, they head off to the LA Memorial Sports Arena to listen to a 73-year-old socialist babble on about the evils of the system that granted them their wealth.

America has become so wealthy that its citizens now ignore the source of that wealth.

“It’s not all about the money” is an easy thing for rich people to say.

But ask the billions around the globe living in abject poverty whether trashing a system that guarantees tremendous baseline economic opportunity seems like a great idea.

But this is what happens when no one teaches young Americans the morality behind the

system that guarantees economic opportunity: young Americans decide that “higher morality” dictates the death of that system. Young Americans don’t desire an Xbox and a car — they desperately want a feeling of meaning and belonging, none of which capitalism naturally provides.

Socialism, however, does.

The outcome: California. It isn’t just the incoherence of bumper stickers and car brands that makes California the center of American hypocrisy. It’s the fact that Californians routinely embrace more regulation and higher taxes in order to feel that quick boost of self-esteem, and then spend effort and time attempting to avoid those rules. Nannies expect to be paid in cash, because all the same people who voted for higher employer taxes refuse to pay those taxes. Young Californians only use free market Uber after endorsing higher minimum wage and more restrictions on transportation. Californians take massive tax deductions, but only after voting to raise their own income taxes.

None of this makes California more livable.

Instead, Californians live in a fantasy world of their own making: a socialist utopia with a thriving black market, in which the popularly backed economy fails while individuals strive to avoid it. All of which runs fine, until the day that Bernie Sanders actually closes the loopholes and cracks down on the cheating. Then the Mercedes turns into a Yugo, and the bumper sticker finally lands where it belongs: on a product of socialism rather than free markets.

Ben Shapiro, 31, is a graduate of UCLA and Harvard Law School, a radio host on KTTH 770 Seattle.

Couple’s open relationship may end up closing theirs

DEAR ABBY: I am a 24-year-old woman and currently live with my boyfriend. We have a child. Before we started living together, we discussed having an open relationship. We realized how messy it can be, so we agreed on having a “free pass” with ONE person, ONE time. I have met that person; it is a woman.

At first, my boyfriend was OK with it. But now that I’m ready to do it, he’s acting jealous. I told him I would stand by his side if he changed his mind about me doing this, but I’m excited to experience this alone and not have him involved. Help, please, Abby? — CARRYING OUT THE PLAN IN CALIFORNIA DEAR CARRYING OUT: Your boyfriend may be feeling insecure because he is afraid of losing you. But this is what he agreed to — a “free pass” with one person. If you feel you need to further explore your sexuality and he is unwilling to allow it, then it’s time to rethink your relationship with him because you may not be as suited to each other as you both thought.

And, by the way, the same may be true for him. If he needs someone who is a one-man woman, then you may not be it.

DEAR ABBY: My son “Pete” is a felon from an incident that cost him six years in a federal penitentiary. He has one more year left on parole. He married a professional “psychic” he met online who we believe has borderline personality disorder. There have been several instances of serious physical abuse toward my son. He is constantly trying to adapt to her ever-changing moods to reduce these conflicts, to no avail.

Yesterday she smashed a coffee pot into Pete’s face, causing a 3-inch gash.

Then she took his guitar and smashed in the windows of his truck. When she’s not violent, she threatens to kill herself. She recently moved here from the U.K. and must maintain a living

situation with her husband for at least a year to establish citizenship. Pete wants to stick it out for the sake of his wife’s daughter.

I think my son should call the police and make a report, but he is afraid of how she would and will retaliate.

She knows his background and could accuse him of anything, if it comes down to a “he said/she said” situation.

I’m not sure what to do, Abby. Any thoughts? — DESPERATE MOM IN MARYLAND DEAR DESPERATE MOM: For his own safety, your son should not continue living with someone as volatile as this woman. Pete could be even more seriously injured in her next attack if he stays. When she acts out again — notice I didn’t say “if ” — I agree that he should call the police and make a report. He should also go to an emergency room for treatment and to have his injuries photographed.

If his parole officer doesn’t know what has been going on, he or she should be informed. If Pete thinks his wife could harm her daughter, he should report it to child protective services.

He should never have allowed himself to be held hostage by her threats to kill herself, which is classic emotional blackmail. This “citizenship” marriage has been a sham from the beginning, and your son should end it.

The jury in Buena Vista County District Court returned the verdict Tuesday.

Breaking silence, Clinton says she opposes Keystone pipeline The Associated Press DES MOINES — Hillary Rodham Clinton said Tuesday she opposes construction of the Keystone XL pipeline, breaking her longstanding silence over a project criticized by environmentalists as a threat to the planet’s climate.

The Democratic presidential candidate said she decided to speak out after concluding the ongoing debate over whether the pipeline should be built had become a distraction to larger efforts to fight climate change.

Mike Tice/Special to Daily News A stockpile of 30-inch pipe, as seen from above earlier this month, continues to grow in a farm field north of Highway 6 East on East 76th Street North, three miles east of Newton. The pipe intended for the pending Dakota Access Pipeline began arriving in Jasper County in mid-April. Dakota Access LLC on Tuesday said some contracts for the proposed oil pipeline have been awarded.

Contracts awarded for proposed oil pipeline across Iowa DES MOINES (AP) — The company proposing to build an oil pipeline across Iowa has awarded construction contracts for some of the work.

Dakota Access, LLC, a unit of Dallas-based Energy Transfer Partners, said Tuesday that Michels Pipeline of Brownsville, Wis., and Pre-

cision Pipeline, LLC, of Eau Claire, Wis., would provide workers for construction of the pipeline.

The pipeline would transport crude oil daily from North Dakota through South Dakota and Iowa to a distribution center in Illinois.

Critics say the pipeline could have negative effects on the environ-

Michels Pipeline is expected to construct segments in Iowa, South Dakota and North Dakota. Precision would construct segments in Iowa and Illinois.

A spokeswoman for Dakota Access said the company expects regulatory approval for the project.

That distraction, she said, is “unfortunately, from my perspective, one that interferes with our ability to move forward to deal with the other issues.

Therefore I oppose it.�

Clinton’s announcement came as she has ceded ground in some polls to Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, who has long opposed the project. It also followed the appearance of protesters at some of her recent campaign events holding signs that read, “I’m Ready for Hillary to say no KXL.�

Republican Bush says multiculturalism wrong for US The Associated Press CEDAR FALLS — Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush said Tuesday that multiculturalism is bad for the United States, adding that immigrants who close themselves off from American culture deny themselves access to economic rewards.

The former governor of Florida, who speaks fluent Spanish and often touts his success winning Latino votes in a party that badly needs them, addressed the is-

sue in a packed northern Iowa diner as he met people in the crowd.

A young woman approached the candidate and asked how the federal government could help refugees better incorporate into U.S. society. “We should not have a multicultural society,�

Bush said, before beginning a longer explanation of his views of what comprises culture in the U.S. “When you create pockets of isolation — and in some places the

Bush’s remarks appeared to conflict with the way he has presented himself throughout the campaign and hew toward other GOP presidential hopefuls who are hoping to appeal to the party’s core supporters.

But Bush said later he viewed multiculturalism as not aspiring to an American ideal.

Theisen’s, a family-owned, leading Midwest retailer, with the help of their customers, donated $40,486 to the Alzheimer’s Association during the Opening Ceremonies of the Dubuque Walk to End Alzheimer’s event.

The donation was propelled through a month-long program of selling $1 Forget Me Nots in Theisen’s 22

Optimae Continued from Page 1A Those who win bids do not need to be present to receive and will be notified following the event. All money raised at the silent auction will go to the central Iowa NAMI on behalf Jasper County.

NAMI is a mental health organization that educates both health care providers and families or individuals on mental illness to get the support and information they need; it advocates for national public policy; they provide a HelpLine and on a local level they help place people in need with the appropriate services.

Last year, Optimae raised more than $800 for NAMI on behalf of Jasper County. This year the goal is $1,000, Optimae team lead and silent auction organizer James Jensen said.

Jensen and colleagues Becky Van Baale, Pauline Hesson and Ashley Marshall are organizing the silent auction fundraiser to help support NAMI and the clients they know that are affected. The biggest

stores, fundraisers in the corporate office and an additional $5,000 from Theisen’s Home Farm Auto directly.

“Theisen’s makes it a priority to be involved in many nonprofit organizations. With our family being personally impacted

by Alzheimer’s, it is even more extraordinary for us to see our customers generously support the Alzheimer’s Association,” Jim Theisen, owner and president of Theisen’s, said.

This campaign allows us to promote awareness, raise funds and create an environment of caring in our stores. It is a win-win for everyone. We proudly support the Alzheimer’s Association and encourage others to do so as well.”

More than 25 family members and Theisen’s associates walked in the Dubuque walk. Funds raised from each store are distributed to their local Alzheimer’s Walk.

reason they work with NAMI and participate in the annual walk each year is to promote education and help eliminate the stigma.

“Mental illness is prevalent in Jasper County,” Jensen said.

“There’s also a lot of stigma attached to it and that’s the biggest thing that NAMI does.

They put a lot of education out there to let people know they aren’t the only ones dealing with this, there are others, and that it’s OK to ask for help.”

There will also be a Jasper County NAMI Walk open to the public at 10 a.m. Saturday at Agnes Patterson Park, 3000 N. Fourth Ave. E. in Newton.

Jim Kool participated in the NAMI Walk last fall and thinks people should come to the silent auction event Thursday to help support and raise money for the NAMI Walk, he said. “I want to help people with disabilities.” Kool said.

After the walk around the park, walkers and friends will host a chili and soup lunch open to the public at Optimae.

This luncheon is freewill donation and all

money raised will go to NAMI on behalf of Jasper County.

Mental illness affects many. It includes numerous disorders that affect behavior and personality such as depression, anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder, panic disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder. Just because you can not see it doesn’t mean its not there, organizers said.

“The money is used for education and support to families who have loved ones with mental illness. Our Jasper County affiliate sponsored Mental Health 1st Aid to service providers, teachers and law enforcement.

The monthly NAMI Jasper County meetings is a time when families can support each other regarding the day-today challenges of having a family member who struggle with mental illness. The money raised with this walk has a significant impact on many,” Optimae Lifeservices Director Connie Wright said.

Jocelyn Sheets/Daily News Newton High freshman Caelyn Briley moves through a portion of the 5K course in Tuesday’s varsity girls’ cross country race.

NHS teams run 6th at Cardinal Invitational

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News Runners competing in the 39th annual Newton High Cardinal Invitational cross country meet Tuesday couldn’t have much better weather to race on the course across Westwood Golf Course.

Newton’s girls and boys claimed sixth in their respective varsity divisions. Class 3A top-ranked Grinnell won the boys’ varsity team title with 43 points followed by Des Moines Roosevelt with 52 points. Ankeny ran away with the girls’ varsity championship with 39 points followed by Southeast Polk with 61 points.

Newton’s boys scored 185

points for sixth place. Ankeny finished third with 56, 3A third-ranked Dallas Center-Grimes was fourth with 62 points and Oskaloosa took fifth with 144 points. Marshalltown was seventh with 219 followed by Perry with 253 and Des Moines East in ninth with 256 points.

The Cardinal girls tallied 152 points for sixth place.

Grinnell placed third with 88 points and Class 4A 15thranked Des Moines Roosevelt was fourth with 92 points.

Oskaloosa finished with 101 points for fifth. Marshalltown scored 189 points for seventh and Perry had 230 points taking eighth.

Rachel Rhoads, Newton’s freshman who is ranked 10th

in Class 3A, ran a personal-best time to capture the sixth-place medal. Rhoads ran the 5K course in 20 minutes, 55 seconds.

Class 4A’s 11th-ranked Sierra Mitchell of Southeast Polk was the top medalist in 20:05 followed by 3A’s sixthranked Sienna DeJong of Oskaloosa in second in 20:31.

“This course is tough with the extra 1,000 meter loop as it adds in a rather long hill,” Newton girls’ head coach Rachelle Tipton said. “The girls did a great job persevering.

Rachel got out well and held on strong; she really fought for that place and time.”

Caelyn Briley, another freshman, was Newton’s No. 2 runner in the race, finishing

29th in 22:58 and sophomore Tessa Keeton was 31st in 23:23. Freshman Abbie Barr placed 42nd in 25:08 followed by junior Ellie Horn in 44th at 25:51.

Juniors Katherine Thorpe and Michaella Cope were 48th and 49th, respectively, in 27:28 and 27:32. Tipton said Keeton and Cope were very close to their best times and looked good throughout the race.

Newton had two girls in the junior varsity race. Sophomore Rylie Bakalar posted her best 5K time in 31:43 for 80th. Tipton said Bakalar had a great night and a solid comeback after missing last week.

Senior Annie Hurt ran her final Cardinal Invitational.

She placed 97th in the junior

varsity race in 35:53. Newton’s other senior, Grace Coen, is still sidelined with an injury.

Coen, a three-time state qualifier, has yet to compete this season.

Leading top-ranked Grinnell to the boys’ varsity team title was Class 3A’s topranked individual — senior Jackson Schulte. Schulte won the individual top medal, running the 5K race in 17:03.

Newton’s top finisher was sophomore Jack Callaghan in 21st in 18:31. Three other sophomores followed for the Cardinals — Michael Bradley in 33rd at 19:16, Bradley Portner in 42nd in 20:01 and Dylan Main in 43rd in 20:07.

Fillies down Cardinals in LHC volleyball play

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News

Jocelyn Sheets/Daily News Allison Ergenbright goes on the attack at the net for Newton High’s Cardinals in a recent home match. The Cardinals lost at Dallas Center-Grimes Tuesday in Little Hawkeye Conference play. They play in a tournament Saturday at Nevada.

GRIMES — Newton High’s Cardinals were no match for their hosts Tuesday. Dallas Center-Grimes’ Fillies rolled to a 25-10, 25-14, 2515 win over the Cardinals in Little Hawkeye Conference play.

“DCG brought their A game,” Newton assistant coach Taylor Peska said. “We know what we need to work on to make improvements.”

Megan Pressgrove pounded down six kills to lead the Newton net attack.

Kaytlin Ahn delivered three kills and Emily Fitzgerald had two kills. Taylor Shipley had one kill.

Morgan Allen made a solo block and Allison Ergenbright made one block assist. Pressgrove had three set assists, Ergenbright had two set assists and Shipley had one set assist.

Fran Lucas was credited with 12 digs followed by Audrey Lucas and Ahn with three digs each and Pressgrove with two digs. Fitzgerald and Shipley had one dig apiece.

From the service line, Pressgrove had two ace serves. Ahn and Audrey Lucas each had one ace serve.

The Cardinals fell to 0-3 in LHC action and 8-11 overall. Newton plays in the Nevada tournament Saturday.

Newton’s junior varsity beat Dallas Center-Grimes, 25-21, 25-7. The junior varsity plays in a tournament Sat-

urday at Indianola.

The NHS freshman A-team lost 25-21, 25-6 to DCG. Tegan Simmons had two kills and one solo block. Brittney McConnell downed a kill and Mariah Wickliffe had a dig.

Newton’s freshman B-team split with DCG, losing the first set, 25-7, and winning the second set, 25-22.

Kyleigh Stevenson had three service aces and three kills while Carolyn Kimmel had three ace serves and one kill. Desirae Shelton served two aces and downed three kills. Anna VanDam had one ace serve.

“We came out strong right away with DCG, good serves and attacks at the net. We stopped passing consistently and communicating and that is what triggered us to fall apart,” Newton freshman head coach Michaela Wood said.

“In the B game, the girls had good serves and attacks, and after a couple points, we were playing really tough and aggressive. We’ve got some days of rest and practice before playing next week at home. With it being homecoming, I hope the girls will be able to enjoy the activities associated with it.”

ISU’s Ryen is latest walk-on to receive scholarship from Rhoads

By Troy Hyde Newton Daily News AMES — Iowa State football coach Paul Rhoads awarded five walkons with scholarships in 2014.

H e needed only t h r e e games to award Ryen his first walk-on with a scholarship in 2015.

Sophomore running back Trever Ryen was the recipient of the scholarship Tuesday as Rhoads made the announcement at a team meeting.

Ryen is the 20th walk-on in the Rhoads era to receive a scholarship.

Ryen, a native of Ida Grove, has been a surprise contributor for the Cyclones (1-2) this season.

Ryen returned a punt 81 yards for the touchdown in the season opener against Northern Iowa and gained 36 yards on seven carries with one touchdown against Toledo on Saturday.

Ryen also has caught four passes for 80 yards, including a 53-yard catch against Iowa.

Ryen joined the Iowa State football team and redshirted last year after participating on the Northern Iowa track and field team in 201314.

He was one of the fastest sprinters in the state during his prep career at OA-BCIG, running the 200 meters in 21.92 seconds.

Other notable walkons to receive scholarships under Rhoads include Jeff Woody (2010), Edwin Arceo (2013), Justin Coleman (2013), Drake Ferch (2014), Ben Boesen (2014) and Levi Peters (2014).

The Cyclones are in their bye week and will host Kansas on Oct. 3.

Troy Hyde/Daily News Collins-Maxwell/Baxter sophomore Carter Fricke placed 13th overall at the West Marshall Invitational on Tuesday in State Center. The Raider boys were fourth overall, trailing the host Trojans by three points for third place.

STATE CENTER — The Collins-Maxwell/Baxter girls’ cross country team celebrated another team title Tuesday at the West Marshall Invitational, but the Raiders weren’t completely satisfied.

Four CMB harriers crossed the finish line in the top six positions, and the final scorer was 11th as the Raiders knocked off Class 2A No. 11 West Marshall by 11 points.

Freshman Brenna Thomson came in second behind West Marshall’s Ashlee Johnson, while junior Heather Jessen, freshman Lauren Ratliff and freshman Shasta Moody finished third, fifth and sixth, respectively.

Thomson crossed the line in 21 minutes, 41 seconds, while Jessen was clocked at 22:04.

Ratliff finished in 22:34, Moody hit the line in 22:34 and senior Chasity Moody was the final counting runner in 11th with a time of 23:19 as the Raiders scored 27 points.

“I’m really pleased with our team’s efforts tonight,” CMB coach Jerry Meinerts said.

“Our girls were really focused and set some really lofty goals and accomplished all of them.

“One nice thing about our team this year is that they are still not satisfied. They know there is more they can do and little improvements still to make. We’ll enjoy this victory, but we’ll get back to work tomorrow and continue to make improvements.”

The other two varsity run-

ners were Anna Jones (25:11) and Stephanie Twohey (25:18).

The CMB boys were once again led by freshman Ian Thomson and sophomores Carter Fricke and Max Van Maanen. And that trio’s three top-15 finishes helped CMB finish in fourth place with 79 points.

Ian Thomson was fifth overall with a time of 18:19, while Fricke and Van Maanen were 13th and 14th, respectively. Fricke crossed in 19:30 and Van Maanen hit the line in 19:40.

“Five of our varsity boys ran their best times of the year,” Meinerts said. “The boys were excited to finish fourth tonight. They were only three points away from third. They are improving.”

Brady Ross (22:24), Curtis Jones (23:09) and Addison Swaab (23:40) also ran for CMB, which trailed West Marshall by three points in the team race.

South Hamilton won the meet with 38 points and Colo-NESCO was second with 61. Ankeny Christian (92) and Meskwaki Settlement School (NTS) also competed.

Colo-NESCO (88) trailed CMB and West Marshall in the girls’ team race.

South Hamilton (90) was fourth while Ankeny Christian and Meskwaki Settlement School also competed but did not have enough runners for a team score.

Tigerhawks swept by Montezuma in SICL action

By Troy Hyde Newton Daily News MONTEZUMA — The Colfax-Mingo volleyball team dropped a narrow opening set to Montezuma on Monday night and then never regained momentum in a three-set loss to the Braves in South Iowa Cedar League play.

Montezuma recorded a 2725 win in the first set and then rolled to the sweep by winning

the next two sets 25-11, 2513.

C o l fax-Mingo (3-8 overall, 1-3 in SICL play) has lost five straight matches.

Russell Sophomore Ries Wilson led the Tigerhawks, who don’t have a senior on their roster,

Iowa QB C.J. Beathard making plays for undefeated Hawkeyes IOWA CITY (AP) — The game clock was set to expire, and Iowa desperately needed to get near fieldgoal range.

Once again, quarterback C.J. Beathard made the play that needed to be made, scrambling out of the pocket and, with his eyes glued to the clock, hitBeathard ting the ground with two seconds left.

Those extra seconds and yards were just enough for Marshall Koehn, whose 57-yard field goal gave Iowa a thrilling 27-24 win over Pittsburgh last weekend.

Heads-up plays like that have become common for Beathard, who has used his arm and legs to push the Hawkeyes to their first 3-0 start in six years. Iowa closes out non-conference play Saturday against North Texas.

“If anything, I’ve been impressed with — and I think I can speak for our staff — his poise and his judgment over three games,” coach Kirk Ferentz said.

Beathard’s overall passing numbers — a 64 percent completion rate, 684 yards and four touchdowns — rank near the middle of the pack in the Big Ten. Nonetheless, his leadership and knack for key plays have lifted the Hawkeyes again and again.

Beathard, a junior, set the tone for the offense on the second possession of the season,

leading Iowa on its first 99-yard touchdown drive in 13 years.

In a road win at Iowa State, Beathard reeled off first-half runs of 44 and 57 yards that kept the Hawkeyes in a game that was threatening to get away from them. Beathard later broke a 17-all tie with just 2:14 left on a gorgeous 25-yard scoring pass to Riley McCarron.

Iowa went on to win 31-17.

Beathard credits much of his success to the fact that he doesn’t have to worry about losing his starting spot after two seasons spent backing up Jake Rudock.

“That plays a big part of it, and also to get the reps that I’ve been getting. I feel more comfortable,” Beathard said. “The longer I’m here, the more comfortable I get.”

Beathard made his first major mistake against Pitt, throwing a pick that set up a Panthers touchdown. But stuck at the 30-yard line with 39 seconds left, Beathard single-handedly set up one of the best kicks in school history.

Despite being battered repeatedly by Pitt’s physical defense, Beathard had enough left to pick up consecutive first downs with his legs.

With no time left to try and force the ball to a covered receiver, Beathard took what was available — which proved to be enough for the strong-legged Koehn.

Beathard is 4-0 as a starter, including a win at Purdue in 2014, and he has won all three of his starts against Power Five opponents.

with 13 kills, 15 digs and three aces. She was 8-of-9 in serves.

Sophomore Megan Earles had 14 assists, seven digs and was 8-of-8 in serves, while freshman Chelsea Russell collected 13 digs and was 7-of-8 in serves.

Junior Dakota Hostetter had four kills and eight digs.

Freshmen Mackensie Brown and Delaney Underwood were 11-of-11 and 10of-11 in serves on the night.

NCMP Aquagirls swim past Dowling in duel meet

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News WEST DES MOINES — Sweeping the relay races and winning three individual races laid a strong foundation for NCMP’s Aquagirls Tuesday to upend host Dowling Catholic, 97-89.

“Swimming against Dowling is one of the highlights of the season for us,” NCMP head coach Sarah Patterson said. “We’ve developed a great and fun rivalry with them, and we took it to the limit last night to get the win.”

Sydney Jenkins, Hannah Rhoads, Emily Miller and Alexis Stout set the tone, combining to win the 200yard medley relay race in 1 minute, 57.96 seconds. NCMP’s B-team of Sarah Prendergast, Sierra Griffith, Elizabeth Myers and Kaelee Knoll placed third in 2:02.76.

“Our A team’s time is exactly where we needed to be.

Our B and C team (Lakin Jenkins, Lindsay Blommers, Alex Inskeep and Taylor Tremmel) grabbed fifth with a 2:10.30,” Patterson said.

Just before the diving break, the Aquagirls made a big momentum swing in the water. Samantha Hedrick led a 1-2-3 finish in the 50 freestyle against Dowling. Hedrick won the race in 24.84 seconds followed by Knoll and Myers.

“The 50 free was huge for us. It is not always a strong event for us, so to sweep the top points was incredible.

Kaelee had a breakthrough night, swimming her best times all night long.”

Morgann Eide finished second in the 1-meter diving event and Alivia Hoffman was fifth for NCMP. Madeline Webb and Jessica Zahn were fourth and sixth in the 200 freestyle. Webb posted a season’s best 2:08.49 and Zahn had personal-best 2:13.20.

In the 200 individual medley, Rhoads swam a season-best 2:22 for third. Also notching season-best times were Miller and Griffith, finishing fifth and sixth. Willa Colville was second in the junior varsity race.

Midway through the swimming events, Stout, Miller and Rhoads teamed up with Samantha Hedrick to win the 200 freestyle relay, in 1:43.47.

The foursome of Knoll, Alexis DeVries, Blommers and Webb placed third.

Hedrick claimed first in the 100 butterfly in 58.30 seconds with Stout taking third in 1:05.02, and Myers in fifth at 1:07.68.

Blommers, a freshman, won the 100 breaststroke in 1:13.55, overtaking the Dowling girl in the second lap.

Rhoads and Griffith, both seniors, finished third and fourth in the event.

Prendergast and Colville had strong swims in the 100 freestyle. Prendergast finished fourth with a personal-best time of 58.48 seconds in the varsity race while Colville placed second in the junior

varsity event at 1:04.08.

Patterson said Zahn broke the “magic 6-minute mark” in the 500 freestyle, placing fourth in 6:00.27.

Posting season-best times all around in the 100 backstroke were Sydney Jenkins, Prendergast and Lakin Jenkins. Sydney Jenkins was second followed

by Prendergast in fourth and Lakin Jenkins in sixth.

In the final event of the night, NCMP’s junior varsity 400 freestyle relay team of Camilla Schlosser, Erin Van

Sickle, Kaitlyn Barnes and Julia Prime won its race.

Webb, Myers, Sydney Jenkins and Hedrick left no doubt in the varsity 400 freestyle relay race. The foursome recorded a winning time of 3:47.26. The B-team of Stout, Prendergast, Zahn and Miller finished third in 3:59.41.

“It was a great meet. The girls and the crowd really got into it, which makes it fun,” Patterson said. “We started the meet up by 10 points, but then it was back and forth.

We led, we were tied, we were down, and then we got back in the lead.”

NCMP competes in the West Des Moines Valley High Invitational Saturday.

“We will build on Tuesday night’s momentum and keep going,” Patterson said.

The Aquagirls are home against Atlantic on Oct. 1 at the Newton YMCA. Contact Jocelyn Sheets at 641-792-3121 ext. 6535 or jsheets@newtondailynews.com
