GOOD MORNING Heights observing Rock the Belt BRUSHY PRAIRIE — Students Against Destructive Decisions Chapters statewide, including Prairie Heights High School, are holding Rock the Belt Day today as part of National Teen Driver Safety Week. The day focuses on educating drivers to buckle up when driving. Students are celebrating a statewide Rock the Belt Day to educate young people about the importance of wearing a safety belt with a Quick Click Challenge. Youths and adults are encouraged to buckle up. Car crashes remain the leading cause of death among 15-20 year-olds. In 2012, less than one-third of young Hoosier drivers killed in crashes were restrained. Half of those who were not wearing seat belts would have survived if only they had buckled up.

Alleged killer backs out of change of plea deal BY AMY OBERLIN aoberlin@kpcmedia.com

ANGOLA — The suspected shooter in a July 7 fatal shooting backed out of a guilty plea Wednesday afternoon. A change of plea hearing was scheduled for 1:45 p.m. in Steuben Circuit Court after Mark Zachery Hines, 28, indicated he was ready to plead guilty to one of the charges against him. He is charged with murder and conspiracy to commit murder as well as carrying a handgun without license and two allegations of habitual offender. Hines worked with his public defender Anthony Kraus to negotiate a plea bargain with the state, represented by chief deputy prosecutor Jeremy Musser. That deal was signed but not executed on Wednesday. The court hearing started around 2 p.m. with Kraus talking in hushed tones to Hines. After a few minutes, Kraus asked Judge Allen Wheat for more time to confer

with his client and they went to the Circuit Court’s filing room where they spent nearly an hour. Kraus emerged with no resolution, and Hines was returned to Steuben County Jail. He is scheduled for a pretrial conference on Monday at 8 a.m. in Circuit Court. A jury trial is on the court calendar for Nov. 18. Hines is accused of killing Ruben Sanchez, 29, on July 7 during a weekend of partying in the lakes area. He was arrested along with Tyler Lee Biggs, 18, of Jimmerson Lake, shortly after Sanchez’ shooting was reported to authorites. Hines allegedly shot Sanchez three times outside the Jimmerson Lake residence where Sanchez lived with his girlfriend. The .40-caliber pistol believed to be the weapon used in the crime was allegedly supplied by Biggs. Biggs, who has retained SEE HINES, PAGE A8

Judge blasts emails in Indy officer’s trial FORT WAYNE (AP) — Indianapolis police leaders are under fire after the judge overseeing a reckless homicide and drunken driving trial of one officer learned that another has been emailing trial summaries to department leaders, including at least one on the witness list. The Indianapolis Star reports the summaries went to five Indianapolis public safety leaders. Recipients included Police Chief Rick Hite and Deputy Chief Val Cunningham. Cunningham is a potential witness in the trial of Officer David Bisard. He’s charged in a 2010 crash that killed one motorcyclist and badly injured two others. Allen County Judge John Surbeck called the emails “unprofessional” Wednesday and said he may summon Hite to explain them. The issue is the latest in a case marked by mishandled evidence, demotions, lawsuits and secret recordings.

ANGOLA — A federal court hearing in the lawsuit between Showgirl’s owners and the city of Angola will go on as scheduled in U.S. District Court in South Bend on Friday. The hearing, though, will only involve a motion for a preliminary injunction against the city that, if granted, could allow Fort Wayne strip club owner Alva Butler to open a Showgirl in Angola. The city had filed a motion for summary judgment but that will not be heard Friday, Judge Robert Miller Jr. ruled on Tuesday. The court had entertained the parties to seek a continuance, which Angola did, because the court was lacking time to sufficiently address matters brought before it in the city’s motion. Butler and his wife, Sandra, have sued the city, claiming their First Amendment rights under the U.S. Constitution have been violated by Angola’s efforts to stop them from opening a strip club at 310 W.

Prairie Heights performs ‘A Delightful Quarantine’ BY JENNIFER DECKER jdecker@kpcmedia.com

BRUSHY PRAIRIE — An alien invasion, seven houses, hazmat suits and a quarantine. No, Prairie Heights High School isn’t under a state of emergency. Instead, it’s all part of the theater students’ upcoming production of the play, “A Delightful Quarantine.” Corrine Reed, the play’s director and Prairie Heights drama adviser, said the comedy production provides many opportunities for students to take to the stage — seven for the first time at Prairie Heights. She said the drama department lost several seniors to graduation last year. Because of that, Reed said she had a hard time choosing which play her students would present. But in the end she chose “A Delightful Quarantine” and noted the title is “quirky.” “In an alien invasion they quarantine everyone inside so they don’t get sick from aliens,” Reed said. “It’s a comedy, though it has its serious point that is to look at relationships and the importance of family and friends.” Reed said the ensemble has no lead character. “We have some interesting happenings in these houses during quarantine,” Reed said. “The framework that

The study is being touted as the first comprehensive look at the city’s rivers. It will focus on land use, flooding, housing and more. The Legacy Fund was created following the City Light Lease settlement between the City and Indiana Michigan Power that resulted in the payment of $39 million over 15 years.

ANGOLA — Trine University will introduce a major in cyber security, the university announced Wednesday during National Cyber Security Awareness Month. The Jannen School of Arts & Sciences will offer a Bachelor of Science in cyber security in fall 2014. The major will be grounded in science and mathematics in addition to courses in criminal justice, psychology, ethics, communication and electives. The Department of Homeland Security defines cyber security as the protection of computers and computer systems against unauthorized attacks or intrusion. “Trine’s new major will prepare graduates to enter the fast-developing field of cyber security,” said John Shannon, vice president of academic affairs. “This major fits well with Trine’s objective to generate work-ready graduates who are able to tackle today’s challenges.” The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts job growth in the cyber security field, including job titles such as information security analysts, web developers and computer network architects, to grow 22 percent faster than average. In 2010, the latest year for which figures are available, median pay was $75,660 per year and there were 302,300 such jobs. “Most businesses and industries rely on a computer network and access to the Internet, so individuals with this skill set will be in demand,” said Bill Barge, chair of the Department of Mathematics & Informatics that will offer the new major. “I think most of us know someone who’s been adversely affected by computer viruses or scammers so it’s not difficult to recognize the need for this specialty.”

US, Europe press Syrian opposition to agree to talks

School in England forced to close due to biting spiders LONDON (AP) â€” Creepy crawlies, in the form of a venomous spider infestation, has forced a school in Britain to close a week before Halloween. The Dean Academy, a secondary school in southwest Englandâ€™s Gloucestershire, said it was closing Wednesday to get rid of the false widow spiders. The spiders are commonly mistaken for their relative, the black widow spider, whose bite can be fatal. The school said no one has been bitten by the spider but local health authorities have advised it to close for the day to deal with the infestation. Experts say the Steodata nobilis, a species of the false widow, are becoming more common in the U.K. and are the most dangerous of the 12 species of biting spiders known in Britain. But they stress that spider bites are rare in Britain, and in most cases the symptoms are mild. The spiderâ€™s bite may sting, swell up or cause discomfort like a wasp sting, but has not been known to cause deaths.

sian agreement last month for Syria to give up its chemical weapons following a deadly sarin attack on the outskirts of Damascus on Aug. 21. With the West threatening military strikes, Syria quickly agreed to the deal. The U.N. Security Council resolution that enshrined that agreement also endorsed a roadmap for a political transition and called for an international peace conference in Geneva to be convened as soon as possible. While the U.S. and Europe continue to press for peace talks, nothing has shifted fundamentally in the conflict that would prompt either the government or the opposition to negotiate. The war remains a bloody grind as rebels and government troops battle block by block and field by field, seesawing back and forth. Assad himself cast doubt Monday on the prospects for Geneva, saying the factors that would help the conference succeed are not yet in place. Speaking to Lebanonâ€™s Al-Mayadeen TV, he said itâ€™s not clear who would represent the opposition, or what credibility opposition representatives would have inside Syria. The government has kept its options open on Geneva. Some officials have said all opposition groups should be represented, while others have refused to deal with those who called for foreign strikes against Syria â€” which would rule out the coalition. Assad has stuck to one point throughout: a refusal to talk with â€œterrorists,â€? the term the government uses for those trying to topple him.

Born in Steuben County, Indiana, Jim is the son of Robert L. and Annie (Davis) Isbell, both of whom have gone home to be with The Lord. After many moves Jim’s family finally settled in Elkhart, where Jim graduated from Elkhart High School in 1951. Jim proudly served in the U.S. Navy as a radio man aboard the USS Missouri during the Korean War. After returning, he attended Valparaiso University and married Nancy Lantz of Elkhart in 1959. He raised his family in South Bend and worked many different jobs in the South Bend/Elkhart area. He retired from Miles Laboratory.

Jim ran 30 full marathons over the years and dozens of 10Ks. He was an original member of the Indiana Striders running club in the ’70s back before it was a popular sport.

Boston Marathon suspect may blame brother BOSTON (AP) — Dzhokhar Tsarnaev’s lawyers may try to save him from the death penalty in the Boston Marathon bombing by arguing he fell under the murderous influence of his older brother, legal experts say. The outlines of a possible defense came into focus this week when it was learned that Tsarnaev’s attorneys are trying to get access to investigative records implicating the now-dead brother in a grisly triple slaying committed in 2011. In court papers Monday, federal prosecutors acknowledged publicly for the first time that a friend of Tamerlan Tsarnaev told investigators that Tamerlan participated in the unsolved killings of three men who were found in a Waltham apartment with their throats slit, marijuana sprinkled over their bodies. The younger Tsarnaev’s lawyers argued in court papers that any evidence of Tamerlan’s involvement is “mitigating information” that is critical as they prepare Dzhokhar’s defense. They asked a judge to force prosecutors to turn over the records. Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 20, faces 30 federal charges, including using a weapon of mass destruction, in the twin bombings April 15 that killed three people and injured more than 260. Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26, died in a gunbattle with police days later.

Obama, Pakistani prime minister meet amid easing tensions WASHINGTON (AP) — In the rocky relationship between the U.S. and Pakistan, the mere fact that President Barack Obama and Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif are sitting down together at the White House is seen as a sign of progress. Few breakthroughs were expected on the numerous hot-button issues on their agenda Wednesday, including American drone strikes and Pakistan’s alleged support for the Taliban. But officials in both countries are hoping to scale back tensions that escalated after the 2011 U.S. strike within Pakistan

that killed Osama bin Laden and last year’s accidental killing of two dozen Pakistani troops in an American airstrike along the Afghan border. “We want to find ways for our countries to cooperate, even as we have differences on some issues, and we want to make sure that the trajectory of this relationship is a positive one,” White House spokesman Jay Carney said. Sharif was welcomed to the White House Wednesday afternoon by a military honor guard lining the driveway leading to the West Wing. Vice President Joe Biden also held a breakfast

meeting with Sharif and first lady Michelle Obama hosted a tea and poetry recital for the prime minister’s wife. Obama and Sharif talked on the phone earlier this year, but they have never met in person. Sharif, who served two earlier stints as Pakistan’s prime minister, has held face-to-face talks with Secretary of State John Kerry and was scheduled to meet with other top U.S. officials while in Washington this week. The prime minister’s visit to the White House comes one day after Amnesty International released a report providing new details about the

alleged victims of U.S. drone attacks in Pakistan, one of them a 68-yearold grandmother hit while farming with her grandchildren. In Pakistan, there is widespread belief that American drone strikes kill large numbers of civilians and Sharif is expected to raise the issue with Obama. The White House responded to the Amnesty report by defending the drone program, with Carney saying U.S. counterterrorism operations “are precise, they are lawful and they are effective.” Also on the agenda for Wednesday’s meeting will be Obama’s looming

decision on whether to keep any American troops in Afghanistan after the war there formally concludes at the end of next year. Ahead of the U.S. withdrawal, the U.S. is seeking to push through a peace deal with the Taliban and Afghan government. Pakistan is seen as key to this process because of its historical connection to the Taliban. It helped the group grab power in Afghanistan in 1996 and is widely believed to have maintained ties as a hedge against neighbor and nuclear rival India — an allegation denied by Islamabad.

the U.S., Sharif said he planned to ask Obama for American intervention in resolving the dispute between Pakistan and India in Kashmir. On Wednesday, India accused Pakistani troops of firing guns and mortars on at least 50 Indian border posts overnight in Kashmir. Indian troops returned fire, but one Indian guard was killed and six were injured by a shell fired at the Arnia post in the Jammu region, he said. Indian Foreign Minister Salman Khurshid rejected the idea of U.S. involvement, saying Kashmir was a “bilateral issue between India and Pakistan.”

The US deal is made There was a collective sigh of relief as Democrats and Republicans in the U.S. Congress agreed at the 11th hour on a deal that reopened the government and averted a debt default. The agreement represents a virtually complete victory for President Barack Obama, who held steady to his position refusing to negotiate with a gun to his head. He is right. Extortion is no way to run a government. Unfortunately it is not clear if hardline Republicans have learned a lesson. The of the Obama is right to insist terms deal mean that extortion is no way that they will another to run a government have chance in a and that concessions few months try to in these circumstances to bring the will only cripple future president, the Democrats presidents. and the country to their knees. As always the final hours of negotiation were messy. As Senate leaders from both parties looked set to strike a deal, House Republicans tried to pre-empt any compromise with a plan of their own. That gambit temporarily stalled the Senate talks. Again, however, those GOP representatives were unable to agree among themselves, leaving a simple choice: the Senate proposal or default. Sensing that a default would be a mistake, the House GOP leadership abandoned its fealty to the Hastert rule — a self-imposed principle by which any legislation tabled by the GOP must enjoy a majority of the majority — and allowed a vote on the Senate proposal. Having passed the Senate by a margin of 81-18 vote, the House followed by approving it 285 to 144. All dissenters were Republicans. Obama signed the bill just after midnight. The final agreement funds the government until Jan. 15, 2014, and raises the debt ceiling until Feb. 7. In the interim, a bipartisan commission from both chambers will attempt to hammer out a larger budget deal that includes entitlement and tax code reform to provide long-term deficit reduction. The commission is to wrap up its work by Dec. 13 and then face a vote from the entire Congress. Unfortunately it is precisely Congress’ inability to strike such a deal that put the U.S. in this position. … Obama is right to insist that extortion is no way to run a government and that concessions in these circumstances will only cripple future presidents. It is not clear what, if anything, Republicans have learned from this debacle. GOP popularity ratings have reached historical lows. The party is perceived as being responsible for the shutdown, ready to take the U.S. economy and, by extension, the world economy to the precipice, and as being more interested in photo opportunities than in the hardships imposed on ordinary Americans. Many Republicans continue to dismiss the notion that a default will damage U.S. status and influence around the world. While GOP moderates acknowledge the damage done to their party’s image — and hope that memories will fade by the time of the 2014 midterm elections so that the party can retake control of the Senate — hardliners insist that the only problem is that they were not radical enough. … The questions remain: How many more times must the world watch the spectacle of lawmaker brinkmanship over the U.S. debt, and what it will take to silence the radicals? Ultimately, it is up to U.S. voters to stop this madness and demand accountability from their politicians. It is not too much to ask for.

We are proud to be a vital part of a community that cares so much! Lynn McVay, administrative assistant Steuben County Council on Aging

Government shutdown will be debated for years The drama about the future of nationally mandated health insurance, resuming government spending, extending the debt ceiling and avoiding national default involves important matters. Any one of them could be enough to stop a country dead in its tracks — and the ordeal of October 2013 surely will be studied by scholars for years to come. But in a way this month’s crisis has been about even greater issues, not the sort that are debated on the floor of the House or Senate or even in political science classes, but instead are the preoccupation of the philosophy department and the pulpit. We have been so consumed with avoiding default, or charting the barometric pressure inside the House Republican conference, or watching John Boehner balance what he wanted to do with what he needed to do, that we have overlooked the more enduring questions this episode has posed. We knew from the start of this struggle that eventually the government would open and that eventually Washington would pay its bills. But we also know that this crisis has raised but not answered these questions, unavoidable in our private lives even if they are avoidable in lawmakers’ public lives: When does principled resistance become stubbornness and intransigence? House Republicans angered Democrats and some Republicans for their determination not to allow the regular functions of government to proceed until Obamacare was, variously, repealed, trimmed back or adjusted. Many of these lawmakers were elected from devoutly conservative districts where resistance to Obamacare is genuine and strong and where their election to Congress was fueled by their vows to fight Obamacare on the beaches, on the landing grounds, in the fields, in the streets and in the hills. Many of you will recognize that the latter was paraphrased from Winston Churchill’s

June 1940 “we shall never surrender” speech, which is saluted (as Churchill would say) by English-speaking people as the ultimate expression of political and moral determination. We celebrate it because admire DAVID M. we the cause which he SHRIBMAN in enlisted those brave words: the defeat of a brutal tyranny bent on world domination and the extermination of its enemies, both military and civilian. Only a very few would create a moral equivalency between the drive to defeat Hitler and the drive to defeat Obamacare; there is a legitimate case to be made for proportion and for distinctions made on ethical grounds, for there is a grave difference between government-mandated insurance and government-sponsored genocide. But in questions of acknowledged lesser consequence, it is not as easy as the tea party critics say it is to draw the line between resistance and intransigence.

•

When does the practical trump the principle? From the start, Sen. John McCain of Arizona told his Republican colleagues that their effort was doomed to fail, that their one-House challenge to Obamacare was quixotic but doomed. “We were demanding something that was not achievable,” he said in exasperation Tuesday night as he declared the GOP had “lost this battle.” His words had greater force after a fortnight of struggle than they did at the beginning of the capital confrontation. And yet many of the House rebels believed fervently that they had to undertake this battle, that to bow to the practical was to sacrifice the principle. This is an enduring theme, and not only in conservative

circles. Throughout the late 1980s, after two terms of Reaganomics, some conservatives argued that the only thing wrong with supply-side economics was that it hadn’t been tried yet. In more recent days, Republican political figures have argued that the GOP’s repeated retreat to the center in presidential elections (nominating Sen. Robert Dole in 1996 or former Gov. Mitt Romney in 2012) had won the party nothing but defeat. Often such arguments have been no more resonant than the bleats from academic socialists and communists that pure Marxism has yet to be attempted and that their cause has been besmirched by leaders like Lenin and Stalin, who warped a precious principle and were tyrants and not ideologues. When does standing for one principle violate other principles? From the Republican viewpoint, the showdown that gripped the Capitol pit one widely held principle (antagonism toward Obamacare) against another one (financial responsibility). In cases like this, lawmakers have to weigh not only the moral value of one against the other, but also the practical consequences of one against the other. In the minds of mainstream Republicans, the tea partiers made the wrong choice. But in the minds of the rebels, they made the right choice, calculating that the sense of financial responsibility of their rivals would make them fold. These rebels weren’t the only ones playing that game, however. The Democrats made the same calculation, convincing themselves that the party of business would bend to business values, allowing them to keep Obamacare free from fetters. Of such calculations are crises made. When do we prize steely determination and when do we condemn it? That sounds like a hard one, but it’s really easy, which is why the country faced such

Only a very few would create a moral equivalency between the drive to defeat Hitler and the drive to defeat Obamacare … there is a grave difference between government-mandated insurance and government-sponsored genocide.

• a threat this month. We prize steely determination when we like a cause (integration is a good example) and we condemn it when we revile a cause (segregation, for instance). When does a leader’s responsibility rest with expressing the will of his followers and when does it rest with serving a greater good? And does a leader have the right, or responsibility, to discern a greater good? Welcome to John Boehner’s world — and to the prison of his position. From the beginning he knew what his conservative wing wanted, and he knew that financial default was a political, financial and moral disaster. If he did not know it at the beginning, he surely knew a week into the struggle that there was little likelihood of reconciling what some of his supporters wanted and what the nation needed. Boehner knew that his was a conundrum for the ages, a choice, like so much else in this episode, between competing perspectives — and a test case in one of the hardest decisions in life, and in politics: when to fight on principle and when to quit in principle.

Get rest and ready to go Rest is an important part of healthy living. We know we need to eat well and exercise, but if we are not getting the right amount of Zs, we will eventually grind to a halt, both physically and mentally. It is especially important for young, growing children to get the proper amount of sleep. Here are some tips provided by the YMCA of the U.S.A. for getting a healthy night’s sleep: • The More the Better — New and interesting YOUR Y research is showing us that getting Krista Milller the proper amount of restful sleep every night is a critical component of a healthy childhood. Based on their age, children need different amounts of sleep. When children do not get enough sleep it can cause moodiness, behavioral and cognitive problems that impact their ability to learn in school. Additionally, recent studies have found links between sleep and obesity in children. It may seem strange, but the more hours that kids sleep the less likely they are to develop an unhealthy weight. • Bedtime Means Lights Out — Try to ensure that kids stick to a consistent schedule when it comes to bedtime. Doing so will ensure they are getting enough restful sleep. Kids might test you at first until they learn that you are serious, so in the face of delaying tactics, be firm. Try to avoid concessions such as allowing kids to watch TV or read until they fall asleep.

•

• Establish a Relaxing Routine — Establish a consistent bedtime routine for your children. Doing so provides them with opportunities to wind down, relax and get ready for bed each night. Turning off the TV at least one hour or more before bedtime can make for better sleep and an easier transition. A typical routine might include a light snack and a glass of water, a warm bath, putting on pajamas, brushing teeth and reading a story with a parent. Try to read with your child in the bedroom where they sleep and not in another room. • Mind the Over-Scheduling — Between all of the activities and homework that kids have, getting the right amount of sleep can be a real challenge. It is important for you to carefully consider the potential health and developmental pitfalls of scheduling so much activity for children that it prevents them from getting the necessary amounts of sleep. Sometimes life happens and kids don’t get the rest they need. Always remember that we can “catch up on sleep” by getting extra rest, so allowing kids to do so is also an important strategy. • Make Rest Your Priority Too — Sleep isn’t just important for kids. Restful sleep has important short- and long-term health benefits for adults including a role in maintaining a healthy immune system, metabolism, mood, memory, learning and other vital functions. Researchers are

also beginning to point toward the benefits of sleep in preventing heart disease and other chronic conditions. The good news is that there are strategies and tactics we can use to get the sleep we need to be both healthy and happy. • Watch What and When You Eat and Drink — Eating dinner at least two hours before bedtime and eating only as much as you need both increase your chances of a good night’s rest. Also, because caffeine can take a long time to make its way out of your system, try not to have caffeine (including soft drinks, coffee, tea or chocolate) at least eight hours before bedtime. Similarly, alcohol can disrupt sleep and any amount of liquid just before bed may cause you to have to use the bathroom during the night. By watching what and when you eat and drink, you can prepare your body and mind for better sleep. • Don’t Clock-Watch — If you find yourself unable to fall asleep or you awaken in the middle of the night with something on your mind, try not to toss and turn as you watch the clock. Get out of bed and do something to divert your attention until you feel yourself getting drowsy again. Try reading a book, taking a warm bath or listening to soothing music to get your mind off whatever might be keeping you awake. • Create a Sleep Friendly Environment — Find ways to make your bedroom as sleep friendly as possible. By ensuring that your room is quiet, dark, cool and comfortable, you set yourself up for a good night’s rest. You might also want to limit the times that you allow kids or pets to sleep with you, because they can be disruptive to your sleep. Fans, humidifiers, the right blankets and a comfortable mattress may all be ways to improve both the quality of your sleep and your health. Tip of the Day: A healthy family home is a well-rested family home. Sleep is a vital part of the healthy development of children and adults need their sleep to stay healthy.

Wood ducks fill opening day bags Gray skies, brisk temperatures and intermittent rain greeted hunters who went afield on last weekend’s opening day of the duck season. It proved to be nearly ideal weather, causing JAMES H. ducks to fly low over marsh, PHILLIPS slough and river bottom. Weather is always a primary topic among waterfowl hunters. They believe it can dictate success. This is true each day a hunter goes afield as well over the course of the long season. The first week of this year’s season finds hunters discussing the weather more than is usually the case. Two days before our local opener I called a friend in North Dakota. He reported seeing lots of ducks and lots of water to hold them. He especially noted unprecedented large numbers blue-wing teal, traditionally the first of the “northern” ducks to migrate southward. Not only were there an abnormally high number of blue-wings lingering on the northern prairies, he said, but a lot of adult drake blue-wings which fly to the wintering grounds ahead of the adult hens and juveniles. He attributed this to a

•

late spring which delayed nesting. “It’s shaping up to be a late migration,” he said. Of course, our opening day traditionally focuses on locally raised wood ducks and mallards, plus a scattering of teal, both blue-wings and green-wings. The hunters I talked to reported seeing an abundance of woodies, suggesting the wet spring and summer produced a bountiful hatch. For some reason, mallards were less abundant than normal. What is problematic is the cold front that moved in a few days ago, sending the overnight mercury plummeting into the 30s. Wood ducks are lovers of warm weather. Did the cold-front cause large numbers of them to take wing and head for warmer climes? Hunters who go afield this weekend will find out. Mallards, of course, will brave the cold and snow as long as food and open water is available. But there are fewer of them than normal, according to reports I received. If many of our woodies have departed because of the cold snap, waterfowlers could stare at nearly empty skies for a few weeks until the delayed northern ducks start heading southward. This is not a pleasant prospect. Biologists tell us not all ducks migrate according to the weather. Some

Website woes continue WASHINGTON (AP) — On the defensive, the Obama administration acknowledged Wednesday its problem-plagued health insurance website didn’t get enough testing before going live. It said technicians were deep into the job of fixing major computer snags but provided no timetable. Democratic unhappiness with the situation began growing louder — including one call for President Barack Obama to “man up” and fire someone — as the president’s allies began to fret about the political fallout.

Democrats had hoped to run for re-election touting the benefits of the health care law for millions of uninsured Americans, but the computer problems are keeping many people from signing up. And Republican sniping continued unabated, with House Speaker John Boehner declaring, “We’ve got the whole threat of Obamacare continuing to hang over our economy like a wet blanket.” Obama himself, though strongly defending the health care overhaul, has been increasingly willing

“Plaintiffs’ Motion for Preliminary injunction seeks to vindicate and enable to Plaintiffs to exercise their First Amendment rights. The abridgment of First Amendment rights, even for minimal periods of time, is irreparable injury sufficient to justify injunctive relief,” argued Matthew Hoffer, attorney for the Butlers. Hoffer maintains that the Butlers and their company, BBL Inc., should be allowed to open a Showgirl in Angola because it qualifies under city law as it existed when Butler bought the former Slider’s Grill and Bar facility in August 2012. The Angola Common Council then enacted a law in September 2012 that rendered the former Slider’s location unqualified to house a sexually oriented business. Butler maintains that the city created legislation with the sole purpose of denying

him the ability to operate a sexually oriented business as allowed by the First Amendment. The city has maintained it is well within its rights as a municipality to enact and enforce ordinances. What appears to be one of the main issues before the court Friday is how the city’s building department dealt with Butler. “The present dispute largely centers on construction activity at the premises, and whether the city’s building official (Dean Twitchell) approved and instructed Plaintiffs to go ahead with certain activities it now contends to be unlawful,” Hoffer argued. Twitchell and city planner Vivian Likes have been named as defendants along with the city. One of the city’s attorneys, Scott Bergthold, argued that holding the hearing on the prelimi-

nary injunction could be a waste of time because if the court ruled in favor of the city’s motion for summary judgment, Butler’s points would be moot. The motion for summary judgment, in effect, seeks a dismissal of the case. “Plaintiffs’ motion seeks to alter the status quo and affirmatively allow the business to open in contravention of multiple Angola ordinances. Judicial economy will be best served not by conflating the pending motions, but by allowing factual issues, if any remain after resolution of the dispositive motions, to be developed after the Court resolves the threshold legal questions,” Bergthold argued. The city has also filed a motion to the court to allow a 10-minute inspection of the interior of Butler’s building prior to Friday’s hearing. Butler has objected to the request.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel presents a tap-proof mobile phone at a booth of Secusmart during the openinground tour of the world’s largest computer expo, CeBIT in Hannover, in March. Merkel complained to President

communications. The German government said it responded after receiving “information that the chancellor’s cellphone may be monitored” by U.S. intelligence. It wouldn’t elaborate, but German news magazine Der Spiegel, which has published material from NSA leaker Edward Snowden, said its research triggered the response. Merkel spokesman Steffen Seibert said in a statement the chancellor made clear to Obama in a phone call that “she views such practices, if the indications are confirmed … as completely unacceptable.”

Merkel said among close partners such as Germany and the U.S., “there must not be such surveillance of a head of government’s communication,” Seibert added. “That would be a serious breach of trust. Such practices must be stopped immediately.” Carney, the White House spokesman, said the U.S. is examining Germany’s concerns as part of an ongoing review of how the U.S. gathers intelligence. The White House has cited that review in responding to similar spying concerns from France, Brazil and other countries. U.S. allies knew that the

Americans were spying on them, but they had no idea how much. As details of National Security Agency spying programs have become public, citizens, activists and politicians in countries from Latin America to Europe have lined up to express shock and outrage at the scope of Washington’s spying. Merkel had previously raised concerns over the electronic eavesdropping issue when Obama visited Germany in June, has demanded answers from the U.S. government and backed calls for greater European data protection.

Student, 14, accused of killing popular teacher DANVERS, Mass. (AP) — A 14-year-old high school student described by classmates as soft-spoken and pleasant was accused of killing a well-liked math teacher, whose body was found in the woods behind the school. Law enforcement officials recovered the remains of 24-year-old Danvers High School teacher Colleen Ritzer early Wednesday, Essex District Attorney Jonathan Blodgett said. The teen, Philip Chism, was arraigned Wednesday in Salem on a murder charge and ordered held without bail. Ritzer was reported missing late Tuesday night after she didn’t come home from work or answer her cellphone. Investigators found blood in a second-

floor school bathroom and soon located her body, Blodgett said. He did not say how Ritzer died. “She was a very, very respected, loved teacher,” Blodgett said, calling the killing a “terrible tragedy.” The boy also was reported missing Tuesday after not coming home from school. He was spotted walking along a road in neighboring Topsfield at about 12:30 a.m. Wednesday. Investigators said in court documents that the arrest was made based on statements by the suspect and corroborating evidence at multiple scenes. They said they also recovered video surveillance. At his arraignment in adult court Wednesday afternoon, Chism’s defense

attorney argued for the proceeding to be closed and her client to be allowed to stay hidden because of his age. The judge denied the request. The attorney declined to comment outside court. Ritzer had a Twitter account where she gave homework assignments, encouraged students and described herself as a “math teacher often too excited about the topics I’m teaching.” She was a 2011 graduate of Assumption College in Worcester, a school spokeswoman said Wednesday. She graduated magna cum laude with a bachelor of arts degree in math, a minor in psychology and a secondary education concentration, according to the college’s 2011 commencement program.

Senators rout Red Wings, 6-1 DETROIT (AP) — Jason Spezza and the Ottawa Senators turned this reunion into a rout. Spezza and Bobby Ryan scored two goals apiece, and the Senators beat Daniel Alfredsson and the Detroit Red Wings 6-1 on Wednesday night. Alfredsson was held without a point by his former team. The Swedish winger spent 17 seasons with the Senators before signing a one-year deal with the Red Wings in the offseason. “It was different seeing them on the other side,” Alfredsson said. “Once the puck dropped in the game you focus on what you’re going to do out on the ice. It didn’t feel as awkward as I thought it would.” Eric Gryba and Jared Cowen also scored for the Senators, who had three goals on eight shots against Jimmy Howard before the

Detroit goalie was taken out in the first period. Craig Anderson made 31 saves for Ottawa. Todd Bertuzzi scored for the Red Wings. Spezza is Ottawa’s captain, a role Alfredsson filled previously. Spezza has seven goals on the season, trailing only Washington’s Alex Ovechkin, who leads the NHL with nine. “I was learning to be captain from Alfie when he was here and now I’m trying to do that,” Spezza said. “We found a way to beat one of the best teams in our division and we’ll try to use that as a springboard to keep playing better.” The Senators won at Detroit for the first time since 2006, although this was only their third road game against the Red Wings since then. Detroit moved to the Eastern Conference this year.

Gryba opened the scoring, beating Howard from the right circle after Detroit defenseman Danny DeKeyser couldn’t control the puck behind the net. Spezza made it 2-0 on a power play, shooting through traffic from the left circle. After Detroit’s Kyle Quincey was called for tripping, the Senators needed only 7 seconds to score again with the man advantage, this time on Ryan’s wrist shot to Howard’s stick side with 5:46 remaining in the first period. Jonas Gustavsson replaced Howard, and Bertuzzi scored a couple minutes later, stuffing the puck past Anderson on the power play. “It’s disappointing for us to lose the way we did at home tonight,” Alfredsson said. “I would have loved to win this one no question, but we played a

good game against San Jose (on Monday) and now we took a step back.” Anderson made a sprawling stick save on Pavel Datsyuk at the start of the second period, and Spezza made it 4-1 with his second goal of the night. His initial shot missed the net but bounced right back to him from the end boards, and he was able to shoot past a startled Gustavsson. “I know the boards are live — I didn’t try to do it on purpose,” Spezza said. “I tried to put it in on the first shot, it missed the net and came right back to me. I do know the boards are live here. We were looking at it this morning. I wish all the boards were like this.” Cowen scored early in the third when his shot from near the left point slipped past Gustavsson. Ryan scored on a rebound to make it 6-1.

It means a lot to know that they depend on me and can rely on me to be that player that will put it away and score for us.” But Martin is far from Dekalb’s only option.

WATERLOO — The DeKalb volleyball team enters tonight’s Class 4A Sectional 5 quarterfinal at Fort Wayne North with a sparkling 18-9 record. But the Barons’ second-year coach, Andrea Spiess, doesn’t want her team to view itself as a potential favorite in the sectional. She prefers the underdog role. “You have less pressure everywhere else,” Spiess said. “We put pressure on ourselves to go beyond expectations as far as what other people have. With that underdog role, we have nothing to lose and that’s the approach we’re taking. We think we’re capable of being sectional champions.” The Barons face a tough test right off the bat with the host Redskins. It was a close match the first time around, with DeKalb pulling out a victory in five games.

The Barons had nine days off between the regular season finale and tonight’s sectional match. In that time, Spiess has talked to the squad about staying in the right mind mentally. “Some people take the philosophy of focusing on the other team but we focus on ourselves and that’s what we need to do to be ready to play,” Spiess said. “We talk about ball speed, fast transition and not getting caught against the faster offenses that we see in our sectionals. We’re just as capable of attacking and forcing them out of their own system.” If the Barons win tonight, they’ll play the Northrop-Snider winner at 11 a.m. Saturday. East Noble and Carroll play each other in the other semifinal. If DeKalb is to advance in the tournament, a lot will depend on the play of senior Hayley Martin. The senior outside/middle hitter

Manning misses practice with ankle injury ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — Peyton Manning doesn’t like to skip any snaps, so you can imagine how unhappy he was Wednesday when a tender ankle forced him to miss practice for the first time since joining the Denver Broncos last year. “It was Greek’s call,” Manning said of head athletic trainer Steve Antonopulos. “I can assure I didn’t go down without a fight. But hopefully I’ll use the day to get a little better, feel a little better.” Manning said he plans to return to practice Thursday when the banged-up Broncos (6-1) continue preparations for Mike Shanahan’s return to Denver with the Washington Redskins (2-4). Manning was knocked around by his former team in his homecoming on Sunday night. His mix-and-match offensive line allowed him to get hit 10 times, including four sacks, two by Robert Mathis, in a 39-33 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. Coach John Fox declined to identify which ankle was bothering his star quarterback, and

Manning deflected questions about it, too. Showing his sense of humor was still intact even if he’s not up on current events, Manning cracked: “I know government is shut down right now but I still very firmly believe in HIPPA,” the federal medical privacy law. “So, I will refer all questions to the injury report.” That report, of course, didn’t specify which ankle was hurt, nor the severity of the injury, although Fox did allow this bit of detail: “It’s nothing serious, just sore.” Manning was one of seven starters who sat out Wednesday’s workout, joining right tackle Orlando Franklin (ankle), right guard Chris Kuper (ankle) and wide receivers Eric Decker (toe) and Wes Welker (ankle) on offense along with cornerback Champ Bailey (foot) and defensive end Shaun Phillips (hamstring). Manning was never knocked from the game Sunday night, although his passes were wobbly after a big sack/strip by Mathis that resulted in a safety that gave

the Colts early momentum. “It’s a physical game out there and I don’t know who, in their 16th year, ever feels 100 percent

at any point,” Manning said. “I’ve been hit a lot. I’ve taken big hits and it’s part of football is getting up and getting back in the game.”

HORNETS: Angola duo credit offseason work on USTA circuit for postseason success FROM PAGE B1

William Reifeis and junior Patrick McAuley from Indianapolis North Central in a semifinal match Saturday at 10 a.m. Reifeis and McAuley are 25-0. The state championship match is set for 2 p.m. on Saturday. “It’s an amazing feeling,” Arnold said. “It’s just crazy how much better we’ve gotten. “We’re one of the best six teams in the state. We’re not looking by anybody. We can’t look at record. But we don’t want to come back to Angola without a state champiwonship.” The Hornet duo was not bad last year as it went 20-7 and won the No. 1 doubles title in the Northeast Corner Conference Tournament and the DeKalb Invitational.

A lot of offseason work and a lot of tennis on the United States Tennis Association circuit has taken them to another level. Arnold and Nofziger also both play baseball for AHS, so that adds to their tight-knit bond. “We’re both a year older. We gained a lot of experience from last year,” Nofziger said. “We know each other’s tendencies and play to each other’s strengths. Losing at semistate last year made us put in the extra work and it has made all the difference.” Playing for a state championship is the ultimate goal for most high school athletes.

“At the beginning of the season, we thought we would be pretty good. But to compete with those tough teams and win, that got us rolling heading into the state tournament.

Jamie McMurray takes checkered flag at Talladega — second non-Chase driver Sprint Cup victory in a row

hardt Jr., with plenty of drafting help in the form of Austin Dillon, was about to make a move on McMurray off Turn Two, thirdrunning Dillon and fourth-running Ricky Stenhouse Jr. wrecked. That brought out the caution flag and sealed the win for McMurray as NASCAR set the finishing order by how the drivers were running when the yellow flag was displayed. Behind the leaders, Jimmie Johnson, with a 13th-place finish, took the points lead from Matt Kenseth, who finished 20th after leading 32 laps earlier in the race. Other than the last-lap crash, the race was far from typical for Talladega. There was no “Big One” crash, and instead of running in a big pack in the closing laps, the leaders wound up running single-file in the outside groove, and essentially finished where they were running when the race was flagged for the Stenhouse-Dillon crash. Earnhardt, who finished second, said he didn’t make a move earlier because he feared no one would go with him and he’d drop to the back of the pack. “I was in perfect position to be patient and wait as long as I wanted to,” Earnhardt said. “So that’s why we didn’t go any sooner than that. I just can’t anticipate a caution coming out every single time we run at Talladega race on the last lap, so I just assumed it would go to checkered, and was planning my move on the back straightaway.” McMurray said he was doing all he could to keep Earnhardt at bay. “When I got to the lead, I was trying to enter [the corners] a little bit lower so we weren’t using so much race track, so that if everyone behind me would follow, maybe the bottom line wouldn’t develop and move up as fast,” he said. “Every time I entered lower, I would get away from [Earnhardt],

In winning the Camping World RV Sales 500 at Talladega Superspeedway on Sunday, Jamie McMurray became the secondstraight non-Chase driver to win a Sprint Cup race this season. It was the first time since 2006 that non-Chase drivers won back-to-back Chase races. In ’06, Tony Stewart and Brian Vickers won at Kansas and Talladega, respectively, then Stewart won another two straight, at Atlanta and Texas. McMurray’s win, his first since 2010 at Charlotte and the seventh of his career, came a week after Brad Keselowski surged to victory at Charlotte Motor Speedway. McMurray won at Talladega from an unlikely position — holding the lead halfway through the final lap. Just as it looked as if eventual second-place finisher Dale Earn-

Chase contender Kyle Busch was ﬁfth, with non-Chase drivers David Ragan, David Gilliland and Martin Truex Jr. taking positions six through eight. All told, six of the top eight spots went to non-Chase drivers, a reversal of the usual scenario in the Chase.

‘Wild card’ oval tracks challenge drivers with back-to-back Sprint Cup races A standard deck of playing cards has two jokers, much like the typical Chase for the Sprint Cup has two “wild cards” in the form of back-to-back races at Talladega Superspeedway and Martinsville Speedway. Those two tracks — one the longest oval on the Cup circuit and the other the shortest — have little in common other than their propensity to set the stage for crashes that can quickly scramble the finishing order and thereby bring about great change in the Cup points standings. Two Chase leaders — Jimmie Johnson and Jeff Gordon — are among the best ever at Martinsville, with Johnson owning eight wins, including one there in April, and Gordon seven. On the other hand, Matt Kenseth, who lost the points lead to Johnson at Talladega, has never won at Martinsville and has an average finish of 15.8. His best Martinsville finish came back in 2002, when he was runner-up to Bobby Labonte. But since moving to Joe Gibbs Racing for the start of this season, where he’s a teammate to four-time Martinsville winner Denny Hamlin, he has an all-new outlook about the tricky, paper-clip-shaped track nestled in the picturesque Virginia foothills. He’s particularly encouraged after his run there in April, where he wound up 14th,

Martinsville Speedway track map but felt he was capable of a much higher ﬁnish. “We got off a little bit in the middle of the race, and then we pitted at the end and lost some spots, but I thought we were going to ﬁnish sixth or seventh if we wouldn’t have pitted,” he said, pointing out that he led more laps in that race (96) than he had in all of his previous Martinsville starts (73). “I thought we had a good car there.” Kenseth said that while he’s not generally considered a short-track specialist, his results this year are showing that previous performances while he was driving for Roush Fenway Racing are no indication of the way he’ll run this year at Gibbs.

“You look at tracks that you feel are some of your worst, and then you look at some you feel are your best, and if I just look through the last five weeks, I think we’ve had our best finishes at the two tracks I thought would have been our worst,” he said. “And some of our worst finishes so far are at the tracks I thought would have been our best. “You don’t know what’s going to happen. It’s been a fun year because [Joe Gibbs Racing] has made me run a lot better at tracks where we usually don’t run good at. “Hopefully, Martinsville will be one of those.” Gordon, on the other hand, said he believes his past performances at Martinsville are an indication that he has the potential to shine on Sunday, if he and his Hendrick Motorsports team can fix a few weak spots. “I’m excited about Martinsville,” he said. “I love that track. We always run well. “We’ve got to figure out how to lead as much in the second half of the race as we do in the first half. That’s where our focus is. You know there are going to be some classic battles there. It’s short-track racing, hard-braking, side-by-side; it’s probably one of the toughest places that we race at and certainly plenty of contact.”

Veteran Sprint Cup crew chief Todd Parrott faces an uncertain future after he was indefinitely suspended from NASCAR last week for violating the sanctioning body’s Substance Abuse Policy. Parrott has 31 career victories and was working as crew chief for the No. 43 Ford driven by Aric Almirola at Richard Petty Motorsports before his suspension. Sammy Johns, the team’s vice president of operations and competition, took over the crew chief duties of the No. 43, which started on the pole at Talladega and finished 22nd. Johns said in a statement that he and his team support NASCAR’s substance abuse policies. “We have an expectation of all RPM employees to conduct themselves at the highest level of professionalism and within the competitive confines as set forth by NASCAR,” Johns said. “We are very disappointed that one of our employees did not meet our expectations, and we completely support NASCAR, their policies and final decisions when it comes to the substance abuse policy.”

Sauter victorious in CWTS Fred’s 250 at Talladega While 12 of his competitors were wrecking behind him on the last lap at Talladega Superspeedway on Saturday, Johnny Sauter had clear sailing at the front as he sped across the finish line to win the Fred’s 250 Camping World Truck Series race. It was Sauter’s third win of the season and the ninth of his career, and it came in a race that saw a track record 29 lead changes for a Truck race. “I had a pretty good idea what was going to happen (at the end),” Sauter said. “Everybody was fighting for the same real estate. I’ve always wanted to win at [Talladega], and to be able to do it today was big.” Justin Lofton was the only driver to suffer an injury in the crash. He has a fractured left thumb, according to his team.

SPORTS BRIEFS • Stevens, Celtics close preseason with win over Nets BOSTON (AP) — Avery Bradley and Brandon Bass scored 16 points apiece and Vitor Faverani added 15 points and seven rebounds as the Boston Celtics closed out the preseason with a 101-97 victory over the short-handed Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday night. Among the resting veterans missing from the Nets lineup were former Celtics Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce, traded by Boston to Brooklyn in a blockbuster draft-night deal. Gerald Wallace had 14 points and five assists and Jeff Green scored 12 points for Boston. (2-6) Tyshawn Taylor scored 15 points and Reggie Evans finished with 11 points and eight rebounds for the Nets (4-2).

Dolphins QB Tannehill battling shoulder injuries DAVIE, Fla. (AP) — Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill is nursing a right shoulder injury that’s limiting his practice time. Tannehill has been sacked 26 times to lead the NFL but hasn’t missed a snap this season. His injury wasn’t disclosed until the Dolphins issued a practice report Wednesday. Miami (3-3) plays at New England (5-2) on Sunday. Tannehill was also listed with a sore right shoulder during the week leading up to the Dolphins’ third game this season.

Indians asking fans for opinion on ‘Wahoo’ logo CLEVELAND (AP) — The Indians are asking some fans for their opinions on the team’s “Chief Wahoo” logo. As part of their annual postseason survey to gauge fan satisfaction, the team is asking fans for feedback on a variety of topics including in-game experience, uniforms and Cleveland’s smiling Indians logo, a caricature some of have labeled offensive. In the survey, fans are asked to give their stance on five statements regarding the logo. The survey asks for similar responses — on a standard, five-choice scale — on the team’s “Block C” and “Script Indians logo.” The Indians have no immediate plans to change any of their logos. And although not connected, the Indians’ review of their fans’ attitudes about the logos comes as the Washington Redskins are being pressured to change their nickname.

Washington’s Merriweather sees suspension reduced NEW YORK (AP) — Washington Redskins safety Brandon Meriweather has had his two-game suspension cut in half by an appeals officer. Meriweather was suspended Monday by the NFL for repeated violations of player safety rules. But hearing officer Ted Cottrell reduced the fine to one game Wednesday. Cottrell is jointly appointed to the position by the league and the players union. Meriweather’s suspension by NFL vice president of football operations Merton Hanks came for repeated hits to the head and neck area of defenseless players, including two in Sunday’s Washington-Chicago game. He was flagged for a helmet-to-helmet hit on receiver Alshon Jeffery in the fourth quarter and for a helmet-first hit to the head and neck area of receiver Brandon Marshall. He also was fined $42,000 for a helmetfirst hit on Green Bay Packers running back Eddie Lacy in Week 2, forcing Lacy out of the game with a concussion. Later in that same game, another helmet-first hit left Meriweather with a concussion, knocking him out of the game. Meriweather will lose about $70,000 in salary as he sits out Sunday’s game at Denver. He is not allowed to participate in any football activities with the team during the suspension. Meriweather said after Sunday’s game that he thought both hits against the Bears were legal.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — A man hired to look after the cars of Philadelphia Eagles players during games is charged with stealing $225,000 from one player’s bank account. Federal officials said Wednesday that 37-year-old Robert Von Ryan of Philadelphia is charged with bank fraud. U.S. Attorney Zane David Memeger says Von Ryan went into Eagles guard Todd Herremans’ car and took documents containing the player’s checking account information, enabling him to transfer more than $225,000 from Herremans’ account to his own from 2009 to 2012. An Eagles spokesman says Von Ryan worked for a subcontractor security service that is no longer used by the team. The spokesman says Herremans was reimbursed by his insurance company.

Divorcee longs for fairy-tale proposal DEAR ABBY: I am a divorcee in my 40s who is in a committed relationship with a man who is also divorced. Neither of our marriages were happy ones. We stayed in them for all the wrong reasons. We have been together for three years, live together, love each other unconditionally and have talked extensively about getting married. My question is, am I wrong to expect a traditional proposal with an engagement ring? It is important to me that he would think enough of me to plan one. I feel if he did it for his first wife, he should do the same — or more — for me. Would it be in bad taste to mention this? — ASKING TOO MUCH?

THE BORN LOSER BY ART & CHIP SANSOM

Changing white fat to brown can help obesity thought that adult humans had only white fat. We knew some adult animals had brown fat, and that human babies did, too. But we thought babies lost their brown fat as they grew older. Discoveries here at Harvard Medical found ASK School that all of DOCTOR K. us maintain some brown fat cells Dr. Anthony throughout our life. Komaroff Why is this important? White fat cells store fat. When we get “fat” — when those love handles start to appear — that’s because we’re growing more and bigger white fat cells.

•

Brown fat cells, on the other hand, don’t store fat; they burn it. They are brown because they contain lots of mitochondria, the energy factories inside each cell. The mitochondria in brown fat cells burn fat to create one kind of energy: heat. Animals with relatively more brown fat are less likely to develop insulin resistance, a precursor to diabetes. They’re also less fat, because they burn more fat and store less fat. In other words, it appears that brown fat wards off obesity. These findings would be interesting — but not particularly relevant — if we couldn’t control the amount of white and brown fat in our bodies. But ongoing research suggests we can. Colleagues here at Harvard have recently discovered natural chemicals in all of us that affect the number of white and brown fat cells. One is a molecule

DEAR DOCTOR K: In a recent column about abdominal fat, you talked about two kinds of fat — brown fat and white fat. I’d like to hear more about them. DEAR READER: I’m glad you asked, because the discovery of these two types of fat could prove to be very important. In the column you’re referring to, I discussed how visceral, or abdominal, fat (which accumulates deep inside the abdomen) is more harmful to our health than subcutaneous fat (the fat just beneath the skin). But when it comes to fat, it’s not just location that matters. Color counts, too — and brown is better. Humans and other mammals have two types of fat: white fat and brown fat. (There may also be a third kind that’s in between, sometimes called “beige fat.”) Until very recently, we

is clairvoyance, express your feelings. He may not be aware that you would feel somehow cheated if he doesn’t come forth with a gesture that is “equal or better” than what his ex received. Consider DEAR carefully ABBY what resulted from that first fancy Jeanne Phillips proposal. An essential ingredient in a successful relationship is the ability to express one’s wants and needs to the other partner. I would only suggest that when you do, your thoughts are couched as a request and not a demand.

called irisin. This hormone is produced by muscle cells, particularly when those cells are regularly exercised. It circulates through the blood and transforms white fat cells into brown fat cells. When obese mice with insulin resistance are given injections of irisin, they lose weight and have reduced insulin resistance. This discovery has excited scientists, for obvious reasons. If it worked the same way in humans, and without side effects, it could have huge health benefits. A word of caution: Many “silver bullets” for obesity have come and gone. Still, I’d bet on this newly discovered molecule, and on other advances triggered by the discovery that we adult humans have brown fat. DR.

Church checks into Bishop’s luxury Deputies shoot boy in California VATICAN CITY (AP) — Pope Francis expelled a German bishop from his diocese on Wednesday pending the outcome of a church inquiry into his 31 million-euro ($43-million) new residence complex. The Vatican didn’t say how long Bishop Franz-Peter Tebartz-van Elst, 53, would spend away from the diocese of Limburg but it refused calls to remove him permanently. It gave no information on where he would go or what he would do. The Vatican said the bishop was leaving pending the outcome of a German church investigation into the expenditures and his role in the affair. Fellow bishops and lay Catholics in the diocese, however, expressed doubt that he would ever be able to return. “This is a crisis of confidence that will be hard to overcome,” said the dean of the cathedral chapter, Guenther Geis. Limburg’s vicar general, the Rev. Wolfgang Roesch, who had been due to start Jan. 1, will instead begin work immediately and will run the diocese during Tebartz-van Elst’s absence, the Vatican said. At the center of the controversy is the huge price tag for the construction of a new bishop’s residence complex and related renovations. Tebartz-van Elst has defended the expenditures, saying the bill was actually for 10 projects and there were additional costs because the buildings were under historical protection. But in a country where

Martin Luther launched the Reformation five centuries ago in response to what he said were excesses and abuses within the church, the outcry has been enormous. The perceived lack of financial transparency has also struck a chord since a church tax in Germany brings in billions a year to the German church. Tebartz-van Elst’s leadership style has also been criticized. In August and September, more than 4,000 people signed an open letter to the bishop criticizing what they considered his authoritarian style. The head of the German bishops’ confer-

ence, Archbishop Robert Zollitsch, has been particularly blunt in his criticism of the expenditures and the credibility problem it was causing the church. He said the “decisive” turning point came when Hamburg prosecutors earlier this month asked a court to levy an unspecified fine against the bishop for false testimony in a related case. Zollitsch has said the church commission will investigate the costs of the renovation, the financing and how decisions about the restoration evolved. Canon lawyers will determine if Tebartz-van Elst violated church law regarding the use of church money,

Zollitsch said. In a statement Wednesday, Zollitsch pledged that the commission would do its work “quickly and carefully.” Francis’ decision opens “a space to return to inner calm and create a new basis for talks,” he said. The Vatican stressed that Francis took the decision based on “objective” information, suggesting that the Vatican wasn’t being swayed by the popular outcry. Francis has also made it clear he expects his bishops to live simply, setting as an example his own humble lifestyle. Tebartz-van Elst met with Francis on Monday.

Middle School assistant principal Linsey Gannon. “Andy was a very loved student, a very popular, very handsome young man, very smart and capable,” Gannon said Wednesday. “Our community has been rocked by his loss.” Even members of law enforcement expressed sympathy. In a statement, Sheriff Steve Freitas said the shooting was a “tragedy” and that he would do everything he could to ensure the investigation was thorough and transparent. “As a father of two boys about this age, I can’t begin to imagine the grief this family is going through,” he said. After the deputies spotted the boy Tuesday, they called for backup and repeatedly ordered him to drop the gun, sheriff’s Lt. Dennis O’Leary said in a news release. His back was turned toward the deputies, and they did not realize at the time that he was a boy. According to the Santa Rosa police, the boy was about 20 to 30 feet from them when he turned toward the deputies with the gun and they opened fire. A neighbor in the area, Brian Zastrow, told the Santa Rosa Press Democrat he heard seven shots. “First, I heard a single siren and within seconds I heard seven shots go off, sounded like a nail gun, is what I thought it was,” he said.

SANTA ROSA, Calif. (AP) — A Northern California community is anguished over the fatal police shooting of a popular, 13-year-old boy who had been carrying a pellet gun that looked like an assault rifle. Sonoma County sheriff’s deputies had repeatedly asked the boy, Andy Lopez, to drop the weapon, but instead he raised it in their direction, police said at a news conference Wednesday. Only after the shooting did deputies realize the gun was a replica that looked strikingly similar to a real AK-47 assault rifle. Residents of Santa Rosa, a suburban town of roughly 170,000 people about 50 miles northwest of San Francisco in California’s wine country, were shaken by the boy’s death. Many expressed their grief by leaving candles, teddy bears and flowers at the edge of the field where the teen was shot Tuesday afternoon. Some community members wondered whether the deputies acted appropriately when they decided to fire on such a young person. “I’m sure you can tell he’s a 13-year-old boy,” Abrey Martin told KGO-TV. “He’s not some maniac.” Andy, an eighth-grade student who played trumpet in his school band, was described as a bright and popular student, liked by many in his community, including Lawrence Cook

Sex offender not free long after maneuvering into US SEATTLE (AP) — For a few weeks, Michael Sean Stanley managed to cut away from a troubled life in Canada and navigate a bizarre pathway to freedom. The sex offender removed his electronic monitoring bracelet, eluded a Canadian manhunt and headed for the border. He was allowed to cross into Washington state, where local authorities told the U.S. citizen to register as a sex offender but didn’t arrest him, since he’d committed no crimes here. Less than four days after registering, Stanley was accused this week of sexually assaulting a

16-year-old in a Seattle alley in a case that has caused alarm on both sides of the border and exposed a challenging dynamic of cross-border relations. “This, for us, was the worst-case scenario,” Seattle Police Det. Renee Witt said. “Our worst fear was realized when this kid came forward and said Stanley had attempted to sexually assault him.” Stanley’s criminal record in Canada dates back 25 years. He most recently served a 32-month prison term after luring two mentally challenged boys into an apartment, lighting a crack pipe and

blowing smoke in their faces and then sexually assaulting them. Parole board documents also describe another case in which Stanley broke into an elderly woman’s apartment while she was sleeping and sexually assaulted her. In other cases, Stanley was found in the bedroom of two young girls, was accused of assaulting another girl and had numerous violent encounters, according to parole records. He was being monitored by police under a peace bond, which Canadian authorities can get to impose conditions on individuals in the community.

Michael Sean Stanley, right, appears in court with defense attorney Nick Gross, Wednesday in Seattle. Days after Canadian authorities decided not to extradite Stanley, a violent sex offender who crossed into the U.S., he is in custody, suspected of sexually assaulting a 16-year-old boy.
