Newton, Iowa

New school board members make waves in first meeting

OBITUARIES Marta Mellinger, 60

By Ty Rushing Daily News Staff Writer

INSIDE TODAY

Out with the old and in with the new was the theme of Monday’s Newton Community School Board of Education meeting, as the new board members were sworn in and departing board members took part in their last meeting.

“Thanks for the warm seat,” new board member Robyn Friedman jokingly told outgoing board member Dennis Combs, after he and Don Poynter moved from the board table to the audience.

In addition to Friedman, Travis Padget was the other new face and Andy Elbert and Sheri Benson retained their positions on the board.

“I know that we’re going to miss Dennis and Don and we appreciate all their years of service and I know they will be missed,” NCSD Superintendent Bob Callaghan said.

“However, this is an exciting time for our board, as two new members of our community have been elected to replace this outgoing leadership.”

“The enthusiasm shown by all of you with the recent forum was enthusiastic and excit-

ing,” he continued. “I can tell you that as a leadership team, our expectations are high and that your impact on our students is going to be vital to their success.”

The new board wasted no time in establishing themselves and a few changes were made. Starting on Oct. 14 school board meetings will start at 7 p.m., so as not to conflict with Friedman’s duties with the Newton YMCA board. The Oct. 28 board meeting will now be held at Aurora Heights and the BOARD See Page 2A

Miss Iowa Teen USA pageants are the official state preliminary pageants to the national Miss USA and Miss Teen USA programs. The newly crowned winners will receive thousands of dollars in college scholarships, prizes and awards.

In days gone by, a diploma from a college or trade school could prove you had the skills necessary for a highskill, high-pay job. But, times change.

Today, there are many mediumto high-skill jobs that pay well, but don’t require a diploma. Some, in fact, require very specialized skills that can only be provided on the job. So, how do employers find the right people to fill those jobs?

Enter the National Career Readiness Certificate.

The NCRC is a credential — accepted almost everywhere in the United States — that demonstrates achievement and a certain level of workplace employability skills in: • applied mathematics, • locating information, and • reading for information.

In an effort to improve the community’s ability to attract highskill, high-pay jobs, the Greater Newton Area Chamber of Commerce and Newton Development Corporation are encouraging everyone in Newton to take the NCRC test. They are

Newton Clinic’s newest doctor didn’t grow up in Iowa, but everyone assumes she did.

“I was raised in Wisconsin, in a little town called Waterloo,” said Dr. Stephanie Bantell.

“It was so small that even people in Wisconsin hadn’t heard of it. I’d say ‘Waterloo’ and they’d say, ‘Iowa?’”

The physician, who provides family practice and OB services, may have lived in a community of only 3,000, but she found plenty to keep herself busy.

“We’re excited to once again bring back and welcome the pageant organizers, participants and their friends and family to Newton,” NCVB Executive Director Linda Bacon said. “We now know from the last two years the flood of excitement and entertainment the pageant brings to the community, and you can’t help but get caught up in its wake.”

The Iowa component of one of the world’s largest scholarship competitions is returning to Newton again next month.

The 2014 Miss Iowa USA and Miss Iowa Teen USA pageants, part of the Miss Universe Organization, will take place the weekend of Oct. 12 and 13 at Newton Senior High School. With more contestants expected than in previous years, the event, which has now called Newton home for the past two years, will draw approximately 1,000 people for its third year.

“Women from opposite ends of Iowa will join together in Newton this fall to participate in this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity,” pageant co-director Denise Wallace said. “We are thrilled to be bringing back such a high-profile and internationally recognized event back to the community of Newton.”

Wallace’s organization, Future Productions, is the licensed producer of the state event. She has been working closely with Newton Senior High School, the Newton Convention & Visitors Bureau, as well local

She thrived academically, knowing by the third grade that she had an affinity for science and knowing by age 16 that she wanted to be a doctor.

“However,” she said with a mischievous grin, “being a doctor was my back-up career, in case being a singing and dancing actress didn’t work out.”

She may be joking, but her love of the arts was absolutely serious.

She danced from a young age, studying ballet, jazz and tap, performed in show choir and drama club, and won the female lead role in

“Guys and Dolls” as a teenager. If all that didn’t keep her busy enough, she was also in cheerleading, cross country and swimming, and did a mentorship with the local physician during her senior year of high school.

For someone who is clearly a renaissance woman, the pursuit of medicine was a great fit.

“I knew it would be challenging and that I wouldn’t get bored,” she said.

Bantell’s hard work in the classroom paid off when the time came to apply for college. She received a full-ride scholar-

ship at the University of New Orleans, where she majored in biomedical science and graduated only months before Hurricane Katrina struck.

“My husband Adam, who was my boyfriend at the time, attended Tu-

lane University and graduated when I did,” Bantell said.

“It was hard to watch TV and see the flooding and damage, knowing it all as well as we did.”

If the jump from small-town Wisconsin to the Big Easy seemed im-

pressive, Bantell’s next move was even more dramatic. Following a month of backpacking in Europe, she started at Ross University School of Medicine in the Caribbean.

There is no charge to retest under Skilled Iowa.

Feb. 28 meeting will be held at Thomas Jefferson.

The new board also voted to have a joint administrative and support staff board meeting on March 10 and to use another date in March as a board work session.

There was also a shakeup in the leadership of the board. Elbert retained his presidency over the board; however, Nat Clark did not retain his position as vice-president. Benson was elected the new vice-president on a 6-1 vote, Clark was the single “No” vote.

Before the new board members were sworn in, the 2012-2013 board had several action items to take care of. The previous board approved the election results submitted to them by the county and approved the second reading of district policy 1004.1, which is with regard to public use of district facilities.

Callaghan wanted to make sure the intention of the policy was clear to the public and board in case there were any misinterpretations during the Sept. 9 meeting.

“If the facility had to be rented, our goal is to be good stewards of the taxpayer dollar and be friendly to organizations that promote our students, our cause and our programs, while remaining open to community members, businesses and taxpayers who might need to use our facilities to promote a legitimate purpose,” he said.

The policy itself also states the facilities will be made available at a reasonable fee to all local, civic, religious, fraternal, patriotic, and community welfare organizations or groups interested in promoting activities that align with the district’s mission and vision. Also, additional users’ fees may be charged for custodial services, if necessary. Those costs would fall in line with the

building’s normal operating costs.

“The one thing I want to make sure that everybody understands is that if we have to hire a custodian, that guy has got to be paid,” Callaghan said. “We have to pay him or her overtime. That would be the only reason we would charge.”

A big ticket item the 2013-2014 board had to deal with was the vote on allowable growth and supplement aid for the district’s negative special education balance. The measure was approved; however, it has no immediate impact on the district.

The vote will allow the board to apply for supplemental aid and allowable growth and to be able to levy property taxes to recoup money that is spent on special education in the district, according to Business Services Director/Board Secretary Gayle Isaac.

“I hate to be the bearer of bad tidings, but we did increase the negative balance this year,” Isaac said.

Isaac didn’t have estimates for the current year, but said last year, the deficit was around $1.1 million.

He also emphasized the district can’t apply for either supplemental aid or allowable growth if it doesn’t have a negative balance.

“We can levy the property tax to recoup money spent on special ed,” Isaac said. “That is not saying that you are committing or telling the community that you are levying the property tax — at this point.

But you have to pass this resolution to allow you to make that decision in March or April for the certified budget in the 2014-2015 school year.”

“So to recoup that deficit, the only tool that we have is to levy property tax. Is that accurate?”

Cook asked Isaac.

“That is correct,” Isaac responded.

Callaghan and the board reassured the audience the purpose of

the discussion the district’s special education budget wasn’t to reduce cost, but to figure out a way to be more efficient with the tools and funds that are currently available.

“We recognize our service should result in positive product, regardless of the cost,” Callaghan said. “Our goal right now is to produce a better product, with a more efficient use of funds. There is no stone being left unturned, at this moment in time, to distinguish where we need to improve.”

In other business: • During his report, Callaghan updated the district’s enrollment figure to 3,073 students.

• Newton High School’s FFA organization was granted approval for two out of state trips. The first of which will take place on Oct. 1 and students will visit Northwest Missouri State University for a career development event. From Oct. 29 to Nov. 2, the students will travel to Louisville for the FFA National Convention.

• The Knights of Columbus donated $1,357.41 to the district for special needs students.

• The district’s various fund balances were discussed. The general fund balance was at $3,426,278, which Isaac said was around $800,000 less than last year. The student activity balance was at $372,820, which was $70,000 more than last year.

• The management fund was $1,123,839, capitol projects fund was $1,634,515, the physical plant and levy fund was $703,520, the debt service fund was $350,864 and • The food service fund was $888,446 and Isaac said the Iowa Department of Education recommended the district use some of those funds to upgrade kitchen equipment.

Marta Mellinger

Obituary

Nov. 11, 1952 — Sept. 13, 2013 Marta Mellinger, beloved wife and mother, died from a rare form of ovarian cancer on Sept.

13, 2013. She was 60 years old.

Marta was born in Santa Monica, Calif., on Nov. 11, 1952, the eldest daughter of John and Mary Ellan Mellinger of Newton, Iowa, whose work ethic and small town values became the core of Marta’s life. Her childhood was graced with a passion for reading, writing and sports.

Marta graduated from Iowa State University in 1974 with degrees in Theater and English, the latter of which she used in her first job working for the Des Moines Register writing obituaries and theater reviews. Following her heart and her love for the natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest, she moved to Oregon in 1975.

Every summer Marta returned to her beloved Des Moines YMCA Family Camp in Boone, Iowa to reconnect with her extended family and friends. She later transferred that love to her husband, daughters and other friends.

Oregon provided many opportunities for Marta, beginning with her first job working for the Multnomah County Republican Central Committee during the day and stage acting in a number of roles at night.

At 27, Marta switched her career focus to building arts organizations, a continuing passion until her death. As Director of Communications at Seattle Repertory Theater and later Long Wharf Theatre of New Haven, Conn., Marta honed her professional skills. She moved to the East Coast in 1983.

In New Haven, Conn., Marta met her beloved, David Frackelton, whom she married in June 1985.

In March 1987, they had their first child, Alexan-

dra “Zan”, and bought their first house. Their love was sustained by a growing and remarkable group of friends.

It was during this time that Marta worked as a management consultant, developing her interest in organizational change theory and facilitation.

Before Zan was two, Marta and David decided to move back to the Pacific Northwest. With the birth of their second daughter, Gillian, in July 1989, the Frackelton family was complete, settling in the Raleigh Park neighborhood of Southwest Portland.

In Portland, Marta began a long series of volunteer activities, including grass roots fundraising for the first “Local Option Levy” for Beaverton Schools, redevelopment of the Beaverton Education Foundation including committee work to develop its Annual Telethon, Skyquilt for Artquake 1992, design and production of The Raleigh Park School’s annual talent show, design and leadership of a Coming of Age Program for her church and various political campaigns. She was always interested in how groups of volunteers could be organized to make the world a better place. She used her skills and energy to that end.

Her professional life included consulting for many arts and cultural organizations throughout the West Coast. She particularly enjoyed her work for Trimet, Legislative Administration on the Oregon State Capitol History Center Strategic Plan and many projects for the Oregon Arts Commission over a

Taylor Marie Foster

Police Blotter 20-year relationship, including five Arts Summits and the formational cultural summit that led to the creation of the Oregon Cultural Trust. She also consulted with such diverse organizations as the National Endowment for the Arts, University of Oregon, University of California Santa Cruz/ Santa Cruz County, U.S. Department of Justice and Pacificorp.

During her five year tenure as Executive Director of the Oregon Children’s Theater, she led the theater through a transition from its founder, leaving it fiscally strong and organizationally healthy. Her final years were filled with many projects working with David and other collaborators through her company, The Canoe Group.

Marta was most proud of raising two extraordinary daughters with David that know how to be themselves and creating a happy, joy-filled and productive marriage. She loved creating art, solving Sudoku puzzles and gardening in her backyard meadow. She will be remembered for her passion, creativity, honesty and love of nature’s beauty. In spite of the difficulty of her cancer, Marta’s generous and loving spirit shone brilliantly in her final years and she will be deeply missed. Her writing about her cancer can be found at www.blazerlady.com.

Marta is survived by her husband; daughters; parents; and brother, David Mellinger of Johnston, Iowa. She is preceded in death by her brothers, Mark Mellinger of Flower Mound, Texas and Todd Mellinger of Newton, Iowa.

Her public memorial service will be held at 2 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 29, 2013, at First Unitarian Church of Portland, followed by a reception celebrating her life. The family requests any memorial contributions be made to The Des Moines YMCA Camp in Boone, Iowa.

Birth

Sept. 5, 2013 Tanner and Cassie Foster of Newton announce the birth of their daughter, Taylor Marie Foster, on Sept. 5, 2013, at Skiff Medical Center in Newton.

Taylor has two siblings, Indi, 6, and Ian, 4.

Grandparents are Katherine and Richard Polk of Rock Island, Deb Breckenridge-Scott of Newton and Richard and Judy Foster of Little Jegg Harbor, N.J. Great-grandparent is Barbra Ingraham of Newton.

How important could this be to your business? Very.

There are some who bring a light so bright to the world, that even after they are gone, the light remains.

Holly Buckman-Minor was such a woman. She lived with cancer for 15 years, yet her smile never diminished. She never asked God to cure her, only allow her and her husband to raise their two daughters to adulthood. God honored Holly’s prayer and both daughters are now grown up, both graduated college and, like their mom, both honor Jesus Christ in their personal lives. Holly prayed beyond her life, praying God’s love and grace into not only her daughters’ lives, but on into the lives of any grandchildren to follow.

Her legacy continues.

We miss our Holly, but she is safe with her Jesus, and our family will be reunited some glorious day. God promises!

Common Sense

Why can’t it ever play out like it does in my head?

It never plays out like it does in your head. Ever. I wish it did, though.

Especially this week.

S e v e r a l months ago, when the Daily News took up a leadership role alongside the Greater Newton Area Chamber of Commerce and Newton Development Corpo- By Bob Eschliman Daily News Editor ration to promote Skilled Iowa in Newton, we talked about having a fun National Career Readiness Certificate testing day (to learn more about the NCRC, see the story on today’s front page). We were going to promote the “big names” in town who would be taking the test, and we were all going to go head-to-head to see who could score the highest.

Like I said, it never works out like it does in your head. If it did, I would need a cape, some sunglasses and “Mean” Gene Okerlund. Oh, and a

microphone.

Can’t forget the microphone.

Anyway, it would play out something like this ...

Mean Gene would start out, addressing the camera, telling the world that guys like Chaz Allen, Steve Long, Bryan Friedman and Bob Knabel aren’t signed up to take the NCRC test this week. I would stroll in from camera left and stand a half-step behind Gene’s right shoulder and look menacingly at the camera (through my sunglasses — at least as menacingly as one can when wearing a cape) as he asked me for my reaction.

I would then go into my best AllStar Wrestling-inspired monologue, throw down some smack, and just as I was about to reach the cresendo of my speech — WHAM!!!

I’d get a folding chair to the head.

Still, one of these days, I’d love to be able to do the whole, “So, what do you think about [fill in the blank]?”

And just as the other party is about to answer, in my best impersonation of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, yell, “IT DOESN’T MATTER WHAT

Usual Eccentric

YOU THINK!” I’d especially love to lay one of those out for a politician. I mean, seriously ...

Sorry, it’s the ADHD again.

As much as I’d love to see some more of our community leaders taking the test this week, I also understand the immense scheduling challenges they face. I’m going to have to “work ahead” on my usual morning production work to free myself up for the three hours it will take to complete the test.

For those of you looking to improve your ability to get a high-paying job, however, three hours is time well invested. And, what’s good for the rest of you is good for the rest of us.

When you make more money, you’re probably going to buy a better home. You’re probably going to buy better stuff to put inside said better home. And, you’re probably going to buy a better car or truck (or both) to park out front.

All of that purchasing does two things that help those around you: 1) the spending, especially when it’s

done locally, injects money into the local economy that will roll over up to eight times; and 2) that spending creates additional tax revenue for the state and local governmental bodies, which can be used for better roads, better schools and better infrastructure.

For those who have been struggling to find work over the last few years, this can also mean less need for government entitlements, which reduces government’s burden on taxpayers. It also places less strain on other social services provided by area nonprofit agencies.

That’s why it’s important to all of us to take a more active role in the Skilled Iowa program. That’s why it’s important to encourage everyone to take part in the NCRC testing program offered through DMACC’s Newton campus.

A View From the Left

The (fake) Crying Game

House Republicans’ child’s play

I am so good at fake crying that I wish it was a contested sport. If producing fraudulent tears was an Olympic event I would surely be awarded the gold medal. I would be standing

By Will E Sanders on the poCreators Syndicate dium (next to Halle Berry) as the National Anthem played, proudly representing my country and wiping away fake tears with an American flag the whole time.

Don’t believe me? I don’t care. I won’t lose sleep about it tonight, nor will I (fake) cry myself to sleep. Trust me, I am a much better fake crier than you or your whiny toddler could ever hope to be.

I can whip up some flowing fake tears faster than it takes a person to say crybaby. My eyeballs are an emotional waterworks that I can turn on and off lickety-split. I have pretending to pout down to a science.

Oh, you lost your dog?

Quick, let me manufacture some convincing crocodile tears. What’s that? You lost your job? That’s rough; sorry, there must be something in my eyes. The McDonald’s drivethru twerp forgot to put your extra large fries in the bag? I’m so sorry. Please pass me a tissue or a napkin.

For the record I realize I should not be bragging about the ability to feign sympathy so easily. Essentially that’s a little too close to bragging about being a sociopath as far as I am concerned. But understand that I am not very talented in terms of natural athletic ability or superior intellect, nor do I possess a particularly charming personality, so I trumpet what little achievements I have when and where I can — even it if makes me appear heartless.

I am actually very talented in the whole realm of faking things: faking a laugh, faking interest, faking being a semitalentless hack and, most importantly, faking I have an important phone call I need to

If the House Republicans were children, they’d surely be getting a “timeout.”

Are they really going to close down the government in a futile attempt to undo Obamacare?

Are they really willing to risk the full faith and credit of the United States to score political points?

Symbolic votes to repeal Obamacare —

By Susan Estrich and the House has Creators Syndicate had plenty of them — are, at worst, a waste of time that might be better spent addressing the real problems Americans face. But what House Republicans are now planning goes beyond symbolism.

Now, it’s not just the failure to address real problems that is at issue. If they have their way and close down the government to make a point, they will actually be hurting people. Shame on them.

I’ll be OK. I don’t depend on Social Security and Medicare.

I’m not supporting my family with a paycheck from the government. As a Democrat, I suppose I could just sit back and watch Speaker John Boehner lead a kamikaze mission that will, in the end, give Democrats a better chance to take back the House in the midterm elections.

But too many people will pay for this too dearly to consider this solely from a political perspective.

Hurting people who are already hurting is not just bad politics. It’s wrong.

If House Republicans hate Obamacare that much, then they should get out there and elect more Republicans — and a Republican president. In the meantime, they should stop playing games and throwing temper tantrums.

You don’t play “chicken” with people’s lives.

The speaker is, apparently, not the one who came up with this stupid plan.

Maybe he’s just smart enough to remember what happened to Newt Gingrich when he shut down the government. Boehner, as far as I know, is not

take.

But again, I am not bragging about being heartless and insincere. I am just really, really good at it. In a way it’s like someone bragging about being a great backseat driver or a fantastic serial killer.

I am an even better liar than a fake crier. Because the truth of the matter is I cry a lot and it doesn’t take much to force me to tears. After all, if the tears are real can someone really be fake crying? It reeks of the old conundrum: if a tree falls in the woods and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?

Because how can sound exist if no one is around to hear it?

As a member of the Y Chromosome Club, I am not suppose to cry, admit to crying, think about crying or watch movies that involve crying, most notably the “The Crying Game.”

According to something I didn’t steal directly from Wikipedia, a German study concluded women cry between 30 to 64 times a year, and men only 6 to 17. A different independent study also revealed my father has never cried in his entire life. It reeks of another old conundrum — if my father cries in the woods and no one is around to hear it, is he actually crying?

I just tell people I am a great fake crier because I am embarrassed how much I cry.

Men aren’t supposed to cry, and surely not as much as I do.

These sockets of mine sure do spit out saline solution by the eyefuls. I would imagine it’s due to some emotionally offbalance condition, but I’ll be honest with you, I can’t afford a therapist. Besides, that’s what my wife is for.

And I even cry more than my wife. When we got married I was bawling. She had the stoic look of someone trying to prepare their own taxes.

I try so hard not to cry during movies, but I can’t help it.

Christine always catches me.

Even commercials make me tear up.

What can I say? I am a cry baby.

And I don’t know whether I should fake laugh or fake cry about it.

looking for a job on CNN. Or maybe he understands that closing down the government and threatening default on our obligations could undermine the economy and cause real hardship for people.

Boehner’s problem is not that he came up with a bad idea, but that he has decided to go along with the ideological extremists in his own party who did. The extremists who are leading the charge down the rabbit hole come from overwhelmingly Republican districts.

Safe seats.

The way district lines are drawn, most incumbents have more to fear from primary challenges than from general elections. On the Democratic side, it’s less of an issue because we don’t have an organized, ideologically motivated extreme ready to fund primary challenges.

On the Republican side, it’s an issue.

Is Boehner really such a cowardly lion?

Will enough Republicans who know better go along with this dangerous strategy in order to stave off primary challenges from their own party?

In every politician’s life, there are moments when you have to decide what is worth risking your seat over.

This is such a moment for the speaker and his colleagues. Standing up to your opponents is easy. Standing up to powerful people in your own party is risky.

It could cost Boehner his job.

Boehner isn’t just the speaker of the tea party — but that’s precisely what he’s acting like. In the short run, it may win him points on the right. But they will come at the expense of the most vulnerable people in our country.

If you wonder why so many people think so little of Congress, why decent and honorable people don’t want to hold elective office, this is why.

When children throw temper tantrums, books on childrearing tell you to call a “timeout.”

When politicians behave like out-ofcontrol children, the man who is supposed to be their leader needs to step up and lead, not dive headfirst into the sandbox.

Quotable The best measure of a man’s honesty isn’t his income tax return. It’s the zero adjust on his bathroom scale.

— Arthur C. Clarke I would rather be accused of breaking precedents than breaking promises.

— John F. Kennedy

If you tell the truth you don’t have to remember anything.

Grapes

Blotter

“Every year, we come out with stuff, and we are always about new and upcoming products,” Schmidt said. “We always try to push the new stuff and the new rage, and I think we found one here.”

Schmidt’s assessment of the grapes popularity seemed to very accurate, as the shelves that house the product held a lot of empty spaces. This feat is especially impressive, as Cotton Candy Grapes cost $3.99 a pound, which is around $2 more than some of the less unique varieties of the fruit.

“It’s been around once every two weeks that I get them for right now,” Schmidt said. “They first came out last year, so the production isn’t up to demand yet. What you see in all your first crop stuff like the Honeycrisp Apples and the Holiday Grapes (is) they are so good the supply hasn’t met the demand yet. That’s why you see your prices go up a bit.”

Schmidt said the difficulty in growing the rare fruits and high demand is why the cost is much higher than standard fruits. He also said this is why it’s hard to know when the next shipment will be for the grapes.

While the sales for the grapes has been high, sometimes figures and people’s taste buds don’t always match up. Schmidt said this has not been an issue with the Cotton Candy Grapes.

“Almost everyone that’s tried them has loved them,” he said. “I haven’t really heard one person complain about them or not like the taste. It’s almost 100 percent positive feedback.”

2008 Chevy Impala reported the car stolen along with an uncashed check in the car. Once Merrill was located on Sept. 18, he told officers he cashed the check at a bank in Newton for $450. He was taken to jail.

• A Newton 14-year-old male was charged with fourth degree possession of stolen property after officers were dispatched at 7:14 p.m. Sept. 8 to 412 S. 11th Ave. W. on a report of a theft.

Officer’s determined the phone was at the 14-year-old male’s house, who gave the phone back, stating he bought it from a friend for $20.

The October pageant will consist of three equally scored areas of competition: evening gown, swimwear and interview. To be eligible, unmarried young women 14 to 26 years of age must be residents of Iowa.

FAMILY CIRCUS

Tuesday, September 24, 2013

Overprotective parents are driving daughter out the door DEAR ABBY: I’m a 23-year-old woman who still lives at home. I have been working for the last five years and have saved enough to live comfortably on my own. Unfortunately, my parents have forbidden me to do it because they think I’m being manipulated into it by my boyfriend, that I just want to “do whatever I want” and be out until late (although I’m rarely up past 9 p.m. and they know it), and because I “can’t stand them” anymore.

I have no privacy! My mail is opened “mistakenly” and my calls are listened in on even when I politely — and sometimes angrily — ask them not to. They have even imposed a rule that I must show them my bank balance weekly.

They have told me I will not leave the house without being married first.

I would like to live on my own before I actually marry so I can experience what it’s like. This is something I have always wanted to do. If I do move out, they say I’ll “bring shame and embarrassment” to the family.

There seems to be a double standard going on here because my older brother has his girlfriend sleep over. How can I accommodate my parents without being disowned? — FEELING HELPLESS IN ILLINOIS DEAR FEELING HELPLESS: Your parents have chosen to ignore that you are an adult, self-supporting and entitled to make your own choices. They may be well-meaning, but they are extremely heavy-handed. Their hyper-vigilance — opening your mail, eavesdropping on your phone calls and insisting on checking your bank balance weekly — is over the top. They would like you to be “safely” married before you leave their protection.

Is their problem that they disapprove of your boyfriend? If you get a place of your own, do you plan on moving him in? If that’s not the case, there is no reason why your living independently might shame or embarrass them.

Not knowing your parents, I can’t judge whether their threat to disown you is serious or not. However, if it is, realize it’s a form of blackmail, and you will have to decide which is more important — your freedom or their support.

DEAR ABBY: “Lights Out in Federal Way, Wash.” (Aug. 13) asked if it was a “sign” that her deceased parents were watching over her when streetlights would go out as she drove under them on her way home.

I understand your desire to give encouragement to someone who has lost her loved ones, but don’t you know that many streetlights are light-activated so that after headlights hit them in just the right way they will turn off? After you pass under them, it becomes dark enough again and they will turn back on within a few minutes.

While I’m sure that given the opportunity this girl’s parents would watch over her, the streetlights she described have nothing to do with the paranormal but have a scientific and logical explanation. — SOMEONE’S WATCHING IN GUILFORD, MO. DEAR WATCHING: While many readers shared similar experiences, the majority had a logical explanation as you did. However, I still feel that if what she’s experiencing brings her comfort, the important thing is what she chooses to believe.

Cotton Candy Grapes available in Newton

ISA board of directors elects 2014 officers

By Ty Rushing Daily News Staff Writer Marge Simpson once famously said, “Fruit is nature’s candy” in a classic episode of The Simpsons. Little did she know that modern day growers would take those sentiments to heart and thus Cotton Candy Grapes were created.

The grapes were created by the Grapery, a company based out of Bakersfield, Calif., that specializes in unique and high flavor grapes, such as Cotton Candy Grapes. Newton Hy-Vee Produce Manager Devin Schmidt said he became aware of them from the company’s corporate office.

Ty Rushing/Daily News Newton Hy-Vee Produce Manager Devin Schmidt poses with the “the latest rage” the Cotton Candy Grapes, which are flying off of the shelves.

Doctor Continued from Page 1A “People hear that and think, ooh, tropical beaches and beauty,” she said. “But this was a small, inhospitable island in the West Indies, genuinely a third-world setting. We called it The Rock. You would take a commercial airline to get from the U.S. to Puerto Rico, and then it was a propeller plane the rest of the way.”

The education was as intense as the setting.

“There were about 1,500 students there at a time,” Bantell said. “What is normally a twoyear curriculum would get condensed into only 16 months. And all our instructors were PhDs, so the material was incredibly hard and detailed.”

In the latter portion of medical school, Bantell was back in the U.S., doing clinical rotations in places like New York and Chicago. For a time, she was torn between surgery and family practice.

“As a teenager, I thought I would be a pediatric heart surgeon. But as much as I enjoyed the OR setting, I didn’t like the

limited patient interaction. I wanted to be able to develop that relationship with the people in my care.”

Residency — the severalyear training that happens after receiving a medical degree but before practicing independently — finally brought Bantell back to familiar territory when she was accepted into the Mercy Health System Family Medicine Residency Program in Janesville, Wis., less than an hour away from where she grew up.

“I liked the program not just because it was close to family,” she said, “but also because it was an unopposed residency, meaning that the family practice doctors weren’t having to compete with surgical residents or OB residents for patients. There weren’t territorial battles. I could do as much as I wanted, learn in all the areas I wanted.”

As the final year of residency approached, Bantell had some big life changes looming. Not only were she and Adam expecting their first child but they had to decide where they would be raising him.

“As I was starting the job hunt, I got emails from a lot of recruit-

ers,” Bantell said. “One of them mentioned an opportunity in Newton, Iowa. On paper alone, it seemed perfect, independently owned but with a large number of providers, in a town that was just the right size, and a place where I could practice OB in addition to family medicine.”

When she and Adam visited Newton in late fall 2012, the good impressions continued to add up. As they toured through Skiff Medical Center, Bantell admired a set of ducky-themed baby bibs in the window of the gift shop. At that point, she was eight months pregnant with their son, Dante (a name she had selected, just like her career, by the age of 16) and planning a nursery decorated in duckies.

She didn’t even know that anyone noticed her pointing out the items to Adam, yet during a recruiting dinner later that night, she was presented with a gift bag containing the bibs, along with Skiff apparel for her, her husband and their unborn baby.

“That attention to detail was amazing,” she said. “And having so many of the Newton Clinic doctors attend the meals held for us made me feel truly wanted

ANKENY – Six farmers, including Rolland Schnell of Newton, were elected to leadership positions at the Sept. 5 meeting of the Iowa Soybean Association board of directors.

Brian Kemp of Sibley took his seat as president, and Tom Oswald of Cleghorn was elected president-elect. Schnell was chosen as treasurer, and Wayne Fredericks of Osage was elected secretary. Jeff Jorgenson of Sidney also was elected to the executive committee.

In addition, the directors discussed a number of issues concerning soybean farmers including the Iowa Nutrient Reduction Strategy, consumer outreach efforts, new and continuing crop research, sustainability programs and more during the meeting.

for the practice. I specifically remember getting a big hug from Dr. Min Pak. Newton was just meant to be.”

Fast-forward to the present, and Bantell now calls Newton home. She and Adam have purchased a house on the outskirts of town, where they are raising Dante, a little adventurer who, not even 9 months old yet, is already crawling and pulling up on furniture. Adam, who studied engineering and most recently worked as a college lab instructor, is loving his new role as a stayat-home dad. Meanwhile, at the clinic, Bantell’s practice is already flourishing.

“I love the familial feeling here,” she said. “I know that I can call my fellow doctors at any time to ask questions. The nurses are very attentive. Overall, it’s exactly what I was looking for.”

The established providers at the clinic have been more than happy to welcome Bantell on board.

“It’s great to have her here,” said Dr. Steve Hill. “She has good clinical skills, is conscientious and a good listener.”

“Dr. Bantell brings great energy, enthusiasm and humor to

Newton Clinic and to the community,” said Dr. Zack Alexander. “She’s an extremely valuable asset to our already excellent OB services, and I expect we’ll see her schedule fill quickly.”

In addition to seeing OB patients, Bantell enjoys helping patients with chronic conditions, including diabetes and obesity.

As a self-described “big girl,” she feels that is something she can relate to.

“My patients can turn to me because this is something I’ve struggled with,” she said. “It’s such a poorly understood condition, so I don’t give them false promises, but I do give them guidance. Exercise is great, of course, but that’s not enough.

We’re such a fast food country, and you just can’t run off a thousand-calorie Big Mac. So we work on nutrition and, if the situation merits, explore medication options. And if my patients need a cheerleader, I’m always there for them.”

Bantell is currently accepting both general and OB patients.

Cardinals snag fifth on tiebreaker score

By Jocelyn Sheets Daily News Sports Editor ANKENY — Senior Cory Hartgers finished Monday’s West Des Moines Valley Invitational golf tournament with a 90. He was the No. 5 golfer for Newton’s Cardinals, but his score became very critical.

Newton and Ames ended up with a four-man score of 344. Hartgers’ score was a tiebreaker, as it was lower than Ames’ No. 5 golfer’s score.

That gave fifth place to the Cardinals in the 10team field.

Valley worked its home course well to edge out Dowling Catholic by one stroke for the team championship. Valley had a 305 and Dowling scored 306. Ankeny Centennial fired a 311 and Johnston was fourth with a 319.

“The conditions were tough as the wind blew pretty hard all day and there was out-of-bounds on both sides of most of the fairways. All of the team scores were higher so I was really impressed with our kids today,” said Pat Riley, Newton head coach.

Ankeny placed seventh with a 349. Marshalltown won the tiebreaker with Mason City for Jocelyn Sheets/Daily News At left, Newton’s Jordan Henning is set to hit his golf ball out of the trees during the Cardinals’ home meet earlier this month at Westwood Golf Course.

Henning and the Cardinals played Monday at Anekey.

eighth. Both teams had a 350 score. Urbandale was 10th at 366.

Bobby Dowling, another senior, paced the Cardinals at Briarwood Golf Course with an 84. Freshman Austin Reynolds carded an 85 and junior Devin Shorts had an 86. Sophomore Derek Damman fired an 89, followed by Hartgers. Sophomore Jordan Henning finished with a 101.

“I was happy with our scores today considering the tough conditions and the lay-out of the course. We beat some good teams but still have a step to take to catch the elite teams,” Riley said. “Bobby continues to play well for us. He has shot mid to low 80s in five of the last six meets.

“Austin really played well today considering this was his first time playing Briarwood. He putted well, which helped him fire his 85.”

Tuesday, the Cardinals travel to Pleasant Hill for the Southeast Polk Invitational. The tournament is at Cooper Creek Golf Course, which is the same course the Class 4A district tournament will be played, Oct. 8.

“It will be a great advantage for our kids to see the course Tuesday. We also play a practice round there on Oct. 2 before the district tournament,” Riley said.

Newton has one more regular-season golf meet — a nine-hole dual at Norwalk on Oct. 3. District tournaments are Oct. 8 and the state tournament is Oct.11-12 in Marion.

Newton JV blanks South Tama

By Jocelyn Sheets Daily News Sports Editor Newton football teams had a clean sweep of games against an opponent this week. More important, the Cardinal junior varsity recorded its first win of the season Monday at home.

Newton used four first-half touchdowns to claim the junior varsity game against South Tama.

Jocelyn Sheets/Daily News At left, Newton’s Brandon Fisher (4) makes a one-handed grab of a pass from Blake Anderson on a fourthdown play at the South Tama eightyard line in Monday’s junior varsity game at H.A. Lynn Stadium. Fisher pulled in the football and scored a touchdown on the play.

The Cardinals won, 28-0.

That win came after the Cardinal varsity and freshman teams won at South Tama last Friday night.

Duncan Lee put the Cardinals up for good on the opening drive of Monday’s junior varsity game.

Lee capped the drive with a 19yard touchdown run with 7:33 on the first-quarter clock. He had set up the score on a 47-yard run. Josh Gulling kicked the extra point.

Newton scored three touchdowns in the second quarter.

The first one came on a fourthand-goal play at the South Tama JUNIOR VARSITY See Page 3B

Missing my favorite Kansas fishing hole You can take the girl out of Kansas, but you can’t take the Kansas out of the girl.

Don’t take that statement the wrong way, please. I’m enjoying it here in Iowa — in this community and surrounding communities. I love my job.

But...

I finally had a chance to call and catch up with my dad over the weekend. I was so jealous when he began telling me his “fish stories.”

He has taken out four or five “ g o o d - e a t i n g ” By Jocelyn Sheets Daily News size catfish out of Sports Editor his pond.

Now, I have to tell you, the Sheets’ family pond is not a typical farm pond. My parents owned 60 acres of land when I was growing up. A lot of that land was timber, with natural springs feeding creeks. They decided to build a pond under a federal program.

The pond was built in the woods.

It is about three acres, spring-fed and stocked with catfish, bass and bluegill fish. We finally developed areas around the pond for picnics. My parents trucked in loads of sand to build a small beach area. There’s trees all around it. It’s never gone dry.

It is one of my favorite places to get away and enjoy. I love to toss a line in the water with a worm on it, and just wait. Fishing is something I can do with my dad. We may not say much to each other for hours down there.

Maybe — “are you getting any bites?”, “what was that?”, “you want to move to the other side”, or “you ready to go up (to the house)?”

minutes left in the quarter, the Mustangs faced a fourth and six on the CMB 34-yard line. A big tackle in the backfield by Austin Moorman stopped the drive.

On the next drive, PCM would capitalize. Blake McWilliams ran the ball down the field in three carries, and he finished the drive off with a two-yard touchdown run. The twopoint conversion put PCM ahead 14-0.

With seven minutes left in the half, CMB was trying to force the issue. The Raiders had a fourth and six at the 40-yard line, when they decided to go for it. Ryan Donahue penetrated the defensive line and dragged Samson down for the sack and the turnover on downs.

McWilliams had 19 yards rushing to set up a play action throw to Reeve for the touchdown, giving Reeve scores from both sides of the football and putting the Mustangs ahead 21-0.

The Raiders were determined to come back down the field, knowing they were going to get the ball following halftime. A pass to Brady Stover followed by an end around to Moorman put the ball at the 48-yard line of PCM. On third and one, Samson bulldozed up the middle for 18 yards. They got down to the nine-yard line in a hurry, but the first three tries on goal were unsuccessful.

On fourth down, the Raiders set up a swinging gate play with much of their offensive line lined up on the right side of the field, Stover in the shotgun and Samson playing center. Samson snapped the ball to Stover, who found a wide open Samson for the touchdown, making it 21-7 going into halftime.

On their second possession of the half, the Raiders faked a punt when Stover attempted to find Samson again, but this time the pass fell incomplete. When PCM had the football, they continued to pound on the ground.

Lions take advantage of Eagle miscues

By Jocelyn Sheets Daily News Sports Editor URBANDALE — Pella Christian’s Eagles found out they have to play four quarters of a game to win last Friday night.

The Eagles had a strong start against host Des Moines Christian’s Lions, but the finish was not to their liking.

“Drive-killing mistakes were our downfall. We have to be better at executing and holding onto the football,” said Rich Kacmarynski, Eagle head coach, after a 30-17 Class 1A, District 7 loss to the Lions.

The Eagles fall to 1-1 in district play.

They take a 2-2 overall mark into this Friday’s non-district contest at SigourneyKeota.

“We had some very good drives in the game, but two key turnovers and couple of penalties allowed Des Moines Christian to score on us. Really, they had one drive at the end of the first half,” Kacmarynski said.

Pella Christian had a 10-play drive to open the game, which Miles Wichhart capped on an eight-yard touchdown run.

Jacob Brouwer kicked the extra point, then nailed a 21-yard field goal in the second period to put the Eagles up 10-0.

A Nate Haveman punt pinned the Lions down at their own five-yard line. Kacmarynski said DMC was penalized back to the 2 1/2-yard line, then went on a 13-play

drive to score right at the end of the first half. The Lions went to the air to do it, utilizing eight pass plays to move the ball against the Eagles.

“We led 10-7 and had a nice drive to open the third quarter. We moved about 40 yards then fumbled the ball. They scooped it up and scored,” Kacmarynski said. “On the next drive, they had a pick-6 to go up by two scores.”

The Lions added another touchdown and a field goal to lead 30-10. In the fourth quarter, Mason Howerzyl dashed 16 yards to paydirt for the Eagles. Brouwer kicked the extra point.

Howerzyl rushed for 159 yards on 29 carries for Pella Christian. Wichhart had 14 yards on five carries, and Carson Dugger ended up with 22 yards on four carries.

Dillon Branderhorst had 11 yards on our carries.

Colten Collins completed 8-of-15 passes for 113 yards. Dugger hauled in five receptions for 62 yards. Josh Posthuma made a 32-yard catch. Branderhorst had one catch for 10 yards, and Jake De Ruiter made one catch for nine yards.

Leading the Eagle defense was Andrew Vander Hart with seven solo tackles and two assisted tackles. David Kacmarynski recorded five solo stops and five assists while Zach Van Zee made five solo tackles and two assisted tackles.

Volleyball: Seniors Jungling and De Graaf lead Hawks Continued from Page 1B season this weekend,” Nikkel said. “Plus its great to have two of our starters back at full strength.”

Nikkel is talking of seniors Lauren Jungling and Logan De Graaf. She said the two led the team well on Saturday.

Jungling returns to help with the setting duties for the team. She had 29 set assists for the tournament, plus made 11 kills at the net. Abby Pleima was credited with 22 assists.

De Graaf pounded down 16 kills and put up four of the team’s eight solo blocks on the day. She had four assisted blocks.

Becca Gritters led the net attack with 25 kills. Hannah Beltman delivered 13 kills, and had two solo blocks and six assisted blocks.

Christa Veenstra had 10 kills along with one solo block and six assisted blocks for the

Eagles. Laura Nicholson was credited with six assisted blocks.

Libero Alyssa Starkey cleared 35 digs in the five-match run for the Eagles. De Graaf had 26 digs, while Gritters made 19 digs.

Pleima had 14 digs, and Julia Dykstra made 12 digs.

At the service line, the Eagles were 182for-211 in the tournament. Against HLV, the team had 12 aces serves led by Jungling’s 12-of-13 service stint with three aces.

Jungling had 12 aces serves for the tournament, and Pleima delivered 10 aces. Starkey served seven aces, followed by De Graaf with four, Gritters with three, Veenstra and Rachel Ver Meer with two each, and Dykstra with one.

The Eagles improved to 7-11 on the season. They host Oskaloosa Tuesday in Little Hawkeye Conference play, then prepare for their home tournament this coming Saturday.

yard line. McWilliams punched it in from seven yards out to make the score 28-7.

The Raiders came out fast and furious on their next drive. Samson kicked it off with a 25-yard pass to Moorman. He then found Hunter Gunderson for 16. Samson rushed up the middle for seven yards, trucking a PCM defender in the process. Another 20-yard pass to Moorman put the ball on the three-yard line, and Samson ran it in on first and goal.

PCM drove the ball down to its own 41, and faced a third down and three. Moorman had another tackle in the backfield to force a punt. On first and 10, Samson barely missed Bryce Kemp on a pass down the right sideline. He scrambled around on the next play and found Moorman for 27 yards. He rushed up the middle for eight then threw another TD to Moorman to pull within eight.

Strong runs by Logan Gilman and McWilliams sealed the deal for the Mustangs, who drove it down for a touchdown. CMB got one “garbage time” score to arrive at the final of 35-27.

McWilliams was the headline. He rushed for 218 on 36 carries for three touchdowns.

The rushing game was on display, and CMB’s defense did not have much of an answer.

“The guys up front were great at picking up blitzes and making blocking adjustments,” Bonnett said. “They did a great job, and what can you say about Blake? He was great for us.

He ran hard. They couldn’t tackle him with one guy. He was really tough to bring down.”

Gilman ran for 26 yards from the QB position, and Uhlenhopp had 13 yards on the ground.

Leading PCM’s defense was who else but McWilliams with eight tackles. Brandon Charls had seven tackles. Luke Cummings had six. Uhlenhopp recorded five.

Hayes Applegate, Jade Coleman, Donahue, Glenn Gillespie, Ryan Jennings. Jaret Maggard, Ronnie Marshall and Reeve had three apiece.

Samson completed 14-of-29 for the Raiders fro 207 yards and two touchdowns. He led the team in rushing with 58 yards on 19 carries. Moorman carried twice for 20 yards.

Moorman caught eight balls for 121 yards and a touchdown. Kemp caught two passes for 48 yards. Stover caught two balls for 27 yards.

Kemp led the defense with 12 tackles.

Austin O’Connor and Clayton Weltha each had eight tackles. Nick Litell and Logan Cory had seven apiece. Stover and Samson each had six tackles. Patrick Girard had five tackles. Jordan Coughenour had four.

Colfax-Mingo blown out at Mt. Ayr

By Dustin Turner Daily News Sports Writer MOUNT AYR — ColfaxMingo’s football team fell to 2-2 after losing its second straight district game on Friday night’s trip to Mount Ayr. The Tigerhawks were unable to mount much of any attack against the Raiders, falling 61-13.

This marks the second consecutive 40-plus point loss for ColfaxMingo as they have sputtered out to an early 0-2 district record and must now travel to Ogden in what will be another difficult matchup for C-M. Sophomore quarterback Jared Myers went 16-of-35 throwing the football for 204 yards and one

touchdown. Blake Summy led the Tigerhawks with seven receptions for 98 yards. Jake Lietz had two catches for 32 yards. Sam Smith caught three balls for 28 yards.

Nate Smith had two catches for 15 yards. Juan Gonzales had one 20-yard reception, and Tim Blood caught one ball, an 11-yard touchdown pass.

Smith had the team’s lead in tackles with 12. Lietz and Myers each had nine tackles. Nate Smith and Summy had eight apiece. Alan Wheeler picked up six tackles. Blood and Gabe Simpson had five.

Myers picked one off and returned it 39 yards for a touchdown.

Brady DeJoode and Nate Smith each had fumble recoveries.

Hawks lose to third-ranked Bears

By Jocelyn Sheets Daily News Sports Editor BROOKLYN — BGM’s Bears lived up to their No. 3 ranking in Class A. Lynnville-Sully’s Hawks kept pace with the Bears for a quarter, down 7-0, but found out mistakes can’t be made against BGM. “We turned the ball over and they took advantage of it. BGM is a really good team. You can’t make mistakes against good teams and win,” said Mike Parkinson, Hawk head coach, following a 42-6 loss last Friday in Class A, District 6 action.

“We’ll go forward from here.

Our guys did some things well.

They battled and never gave up in this game. We’ll take one game at a time,” he said.

The Bears scored 21 points in the second quarter to lead 28-0 at halftime. Lynnville-Sully didn’t give up any points in the third quarter. BGM tacked on two fourth-quarter touchdowns before Lynnville-Sully scored its lone touchdown.

Caden Doll broke off a 69-yard touchdown run for the Hawks in the fourth quarter. Doll finished

with 149 yards on 20 carries.

Brandon Dunsbergen completed 5-of-13 passes for 39 yards. T.J. Cunningham made two catches for 17 yards and Darin Hofer had one catch for 15 yards. Sage Ehresman caught one pass for nine yards.

BGM got 104 yards on 25 carries and three touchdowns from Jack Kline, who also tossed a seven-yard touchdown pass to quarterback Bryan Kriegel. Kriegel was 7-of-10 for 160 yards passing, and had a 14-yard touchdown pass to Colton Ryan. Ryan also scored on a 51-yard interception return.

“We played good defense. We just keep hurting ourselves offensively, allowing teams to have short fields to drive on,” Parkinson said. “Our kids are playing together. We just have to make plays on both sides of the football to be successful.”

Cunningham led the Hawk defense with 10 tackles. Doll made eight tackles, followed by Ehresman with seven tackles and Daniel Zimmerman with six tackles.

Dunsbergen intercepted a pass.

The Hawks (0-4) play at Southeast Warren this Friday.

Junior varsity: Cardinals record first victory Continued from Page 1B eight-yard line. Brandon Fisher pulled in a pass from Blake Anderson with one hand, secured it and scored the touchdown. Gulling kicked the extra point.

Newton forced the Trojans to punt and scored again. Parker Schuster threw a 57-yard touchdown pass to Jake Bennett. South Tama blocked the extra-point kick, leaving the Cardinals with a 20-0 lead with 7:04 left in the period.

Bennett intercepted a South Tama pass, returning the football to the Trojan two-yard line. Two plays later, Bennett went in from one yard out. Schuster tacked on the two-point conversion run.

“Defensively, this was our best performance of the season, including two more pass interceptions,” said Tom Weeks, NHS assistant coach. “We had a lot of player with outstanding games.

Chris Sorbo and Mac Icenbice played well.”

The Newton junior varsity goes to Grinnell next Monday.

Rosenquist leads NHS freshmen to victory

By Jocelyn Sheets Daily News Sports Editor TAMA — Back-andforth went Newton and South Tama’s freshman football teams. South Tama led 8-6 at halftime, then 52 points were scored in the second half last Friday night.

The Trojans’ Kolbie Clark scored his third touchdown of the second half to put his team up 30-28 with 1:17 left in the game.

Newton’s Reese Rosenquist had four touchdowns already on the scoreboard for the Cardinals.

Rosenquist had one more in him. He ran the ensuing

kickoff back 77 yards for the go-ahead touchdown.

The Cardinals tacked on the two-point to go up 36-30, but the drama continued.

Clark powered the Trojan offense down the field.

Caden Manning, Newton defensive lineman, dropped Clark for an eight-yard loss during the drive. South Tama reached the Newton nine-yard line, faced a fourth-and-four with 4.4 seconds left in the game.

The game came down to one play. Newton’s freshmen made the defensive stand and claimed the 36-30 win.

“That was one of the wildest, most exciting ninth-

grade games that I have been a part of. Our boys found a way to make a couple more plays than South Tama at the end to come out on top,” said Trent Powers, NHS assistant coach. “The offensive line did a great job dominating the line of scrimmage the second half. South Tama was blitzing and causing some confusion in the first half, but we adjusted to it and really started to move in the second half.”

Rosenquist rushed for 181 yards and had 37 yards receiving. He scored on runs of two, four, eight and 31 yards, along with the kickoff return.

Justice Borger ran for 58 yards for the Cardinals, and Morgan Maher had 42 yards receiving. The Cardinals amassed 351 yards of total offense.“Reese had an amazing game for our team. He was all over the field on offense and defense,” Powers said. “Defensively, Morgan had an interception, and Brady Smith had a fumble recovery. Peyton Patterson, Josh Gulling and Caden Manning all had tackles for loss.”

The Newton freshmen are 2-2 on the season. They host Grinnell at 4:45 p.m. this Friday at H.A. Lynn Stadium.

Kenseth wins at New Hampshire LOUDON, N.H. (AP) — Matt Kenseth made it 2 for 2 in the Chase, holding off teammate Kyle Busch to win at New Hampshire Motor Speedway.

Kenseth followed his win in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship opener at Chicagoland with his series-high seventh victory of the season. Kenseth made his 500th career start and maintained his points lead as the series shifts to Dover.

Kenseth and Busch made it a 1-2 finish for Joe Gibbs Racing for the second straight week and helped the organization win for the fourth time in the last five Cup races.

Chase drivers filled six of the top 10 spots. Greg Biffle was third and Jimmie Johnson fourth. Dale Earnhardt Jr. was sixth and Carl Edwards ninth.

Jocelyn Sheets/Daily News On his way to his fourth touchdown of the night is Newton’s Reese Rosenquist, leaving South Tama defenders behind. Rosenquist would later return a kickoff 77 yards for the go-ahead touchdown in the Cardinal freshman game Friday night at Tama. Newton won the game, 36-30.

The Lions (2-1) ended a 21-game road losing streak against the Redskins, the second longest in NFL history. Detroit’s last win away from home in the series came in 1935 against the Boston Redskins, two years before the franchise’s move to Washington.

This one came as Matthew Stafford completed 25 of 42 passes for 385 yards with two touchdowns in a 27-20 triumph. Calvin Johnson and Nate Burleson both had 100 yards receiving for Detroit.

“You never know how the cookie’s going to crumble, and it feels good that it crumbled our way this time,” Detroit cornerback Rashean Mathis said. “I wasn’t a part of the past, but I am part of the future, so it feels good

to give the fans something to feel good about, and we can demolish a record, our streak, that was going on for years and years and years.”

Another losing string was snapped by the Titans.

Tennessee had fallen nine straight times to San Diego before Jake Locker connected with rookie Justin Hunter on a 34-yard touchdown pass with 15 seconds left for a 20-17 win.

The last time the Titans beat the Chargers was 1992 when the team was still in Houston.

“We needed a win like this,” said Tennessee coach Mike Munchak, who was with the franchise when it was the Oilers and last beat San Diego.

Also Sunday, it was Indianapolis 27, San Francisco

Doing good deeds makes both the doer and the receiver happy -- but mostly the doer. The caveat is that the good deeds must be fresh and meaningful. With too much repetition of the same good deed, the kindness becomes just another chore sans the helper’s high. The Gemini moon inspires the sharing of something new and heartfelt.

bring favorable results to your mood. A Capricorn figures into your future good fortune.

easier to love your neighbor if you have something to do with the choice of where you live.

Your most peaceful option is to retreat as soon as possible to a safe and neutral territory.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). A person with horrible and abundant problems will be most effective in distracting you from your own, which pale in comparison. Suddenly the world won’t seem so bad.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You will address the “how” and the “why” of a problem, thoroughly going through the mechanics of each. The “why” will prove more important and will be crucial to the solution.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). People who can’t connect with themselves also can’t connect with others.

Try not to expect a deep connection with those who are ill-equipped and/or unable to make this happen.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Sept. 25). Choose your next move carefully. The inspired action you take will help your family, but loveless labors aren’t worth the energy drain. You reinvent yourself in November and find a fresh income source. Reunions and new agreements happen in January. In February, you’ll focus on one talent and become an expert. Pisces and Aries people adore you.

Your lucky numbers are: 4, 19, 33, 27 and 41.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22Dec. 21). Don’t you hate to get unsolicited advice?

At least in today’s case it will be something useful, though you will have to dig deeper and interpret to figure out its use.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Getting more information doesn’t always clear things up. When there’s little else to go on, you’ll use your intuition and instinct and get astounding results.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19). You can’t be too nice today. But who deserves your niceness the most? When people violate the rules of civility, you are being nice to the general public by calling them out.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Because you have such a curious mind and a courageous spirit that makes you unafraid to follow your curiosity, your day will be made livelier by elements of mystery, glamour and illusion.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). It’s important to do things the right way. Take the time to read all of the instructions or the map before you start an endeavor. Any shortcut you attempt is apt to make things harder for you in the long run.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

A surge of raw energy will help you tackle big and small jobs. Burning some of it off in exercise will

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20Feb. 18). People who feel trapped are generally not as friendly as those who feel free. In other words, it’s

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). It’s more stressful to be in the middle of opposing forces than it is to be on either side of the battle.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept.

22). You don’t mind it when your path is cluttered with one obstacle or another. You see this as training for tougher times. This is only making you stronger for later when it will matter most.
