Prosecutor loads up for trials Council balks at designating money to new full-time positions BY MIKE MARTURELLO mmarturello@kpcmedia.com
ANGOLA — Steuben County Prosecutor Mike Hess received funding from the Steuben County Council for additional staffing
needs on Tuesday. Hess told the council he needed an additional deputy and two more full-time support staff members because of mandated work from the state and a caseload that
includes five murder cases this year. Approved was $50,000 for Hess to use at his discretion for staffing. The money will come from the county’s riverboat casino fund. Hess had requested $50,000 for an additional full-time deputy prosecutor and $23,133 apiece for support staff. Had that request been granted, it would have amounted to an
FORT WAYNE — U.S. Rep. Marlin Stutzman, R-Howe, will sponsor a job fair Friday from 1-4 p.m. at Indiana University-Purdue University Fort Wayne. More than 50 employers with nearly 1,000 jobs to fill are scheduled to attend the job fair in the Classic Ballroom of the Walb Student Union, 2010 E. Coliseum Boulevard, a news release said.
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Members of the United Steelworkers union have voted to reject a proposed three-year contract that covers 2,400 workers at BF Goodrich facilities in Woodburn and Tuscaloosa, Ala. The USW said negotiations will resume today in Knoxville, Tenn. The union and the tire company had been working since June on a new collective bargaining agreement. The previous contract expired July 27. The BF Goodrich plant in Woodburn employs 1,580 workers.

FORT WAYNE (AP) — Leaders of Indiana’s largest school district have backed a resolution criticizing the state’s A-F grading system for schools and calling for a new means of recognizing performance and improvement. The Fort Wayne Community Schools board voted 6-1 Monday night in favor of the resolution expressing concerns about how the grades are calculated. The Fort Wayne resolution cites concerns that the A-F system tallied a school’s grade based on student scores on the standardized ISTEP exam without considering factors such as how many students are living in poverty, learning the English language or have special needs.

Getting ready for school Volunteers fill up backpacks for less privileged students from Steuben County at Fairview Missionary Church on Tuesday. At the right, Project Help volunteer Nick LaRose fills a backpack for distribution. During this year’s back-to-school supply distribution, it was expected that more than the 800 students who received supplies last year would do so this year. A line snaked through the Fairview parking lot. Each student received a new backpack filled with supplies needed for their grade level and specific school, said Project Help Executive Director Sheri Frank. “They’re getting startups of everything,” said Jean Bienz, Angola, who helps coordinate the effort. The project, coordinated by Project Help, is funded by many organizations in the community. They included the Women’s Fund at the Steuben Community Foundation, Ashley-Hudson Fund, Fremont Fund, Beacon Financial Credit Union and the Steuben County Community Foundation. Panache Salon and Spa provided students vouchers for back to school haircuts.
ANGOLA — As he often does, Angola Mayor Dick Hickman again stressed the reason for the city’s sound financial shape is long-range planning and teamwork. Hickman presented the city’s proposed 2014 budget at a special meeting Monday. In doing so, he lauded advance planning by the city, Clerk-Treasurer Deb Twitchell, city department heads and members of the Common Council. “Businesses and our citizens cannot just survive in Angola, but have an opportunity to prosper. It all begins with our annual budgets and it ends with every department staying within those budgets,” he wrote in the budget’s introduction. Hickman acknowledged the proposed budget for total city, utility and pension funds is $15.4 million — 1 percent more than the 2013 budget of $15.3 million. Some public works projects the city would like to tackle next year include: adding a traffic signal for public safety vehicles, trail way emergency phones, a City Hall Americans With Disabilities Act-compliant front entry, Wendell Jacob Avenue SEE ANGOLA, PAGE A6

26 Palestinians released before talks JERUSALEM (AP) — Israel released 26 Palestinian inmates, including many convicted in grisly killings, on the eve of long-stalled Mideast peace talks, angering families of those slain by the prisoners, who were welcomed as heroes in the West Bank and Gaza. Buses carrying the inmates departed the Ayalon prison in central Israel late Tuesday, a nighttime release that was aimed at preventing the spectacle of prisoners flashing victory signs as has happened in the past. Relatives of the victims, many with their hands painted red to symbolize what they say is the blood on the hands of the inmates, held protests throughout the day, and some protesters tried briefly to block the buses from leaving. The decision to release the men stirred anguish in Israel, where many Israelis view them as terrorists. Most of the prisoners were convicted of killings, including
Israeli civilians, soldiers and suspected Palestinian collaborators, while others were involved in attempted murder or kidnapping. Celebrations erupted in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, where thousands of Palestinian well-wishers awaited the buses’ arrival. Palestinians generally view the prisoners as heroes regardless of their acts, arguing they made personal sacrifices in the struggle for independence. Fireworks lit the sky in Gaza, where rival Hamas and Fatah supporters, including several masked gunmen, celebrated to the beat of drums. Some danced while others flashed victory signs and waved flags of the Palestinian factions. Cars with loudspeakers blasted nationalistic songs. “Today is a day of joy and happiness. I can’t wait until I hug my beloved son,” said Aicha Abu Setta, the 68-year-old mother of freed prisoner Alla Abu Setta.
“I am so excited that he will be free and he will spend his first night among us after more than 20 years,” she said, clutching a picture of her 43-year-old son, who was arrested in 1994, charged, along with his cousin, of killing a soldier. Palestinians hurled rocks at the Israeli military vehicles escorting the bus convoy as it reached the crossing to the West Bank after 1 a.m. In Ramallah, the released prisoners laid a wreath at the grave of late Palestinian President Yasser Arafat and were greeted by Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas personally at the presidential compound. Tuesday’s release was part of an agreement brokered by U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry to get Israel and the Palestinians back to the table for peace talks that had been paralyzed since 2008. In all, 104 convicts are to SEE TALKS, PAGE A6
ORLAND — The Orland Town Council annexed the southern portion of its industrial park into town jurisdiction at Monday night’s meeting. The 12 1/2-acre addition encompasses all of the Lord’s Seed property. The company, which has been in the location for the past several years, is in the process of expanding. There are a half dozen companies in the industrial complex, including Kain Tool, which announced its plans to expand earlier this year, garnering a tax abatement from the town for an estimated investment of $250,000 for a 10,000 square-foot-expansion and $170,000 in new machinery and equipment. In other recent industrial news, CTA Acoustics leased a 95,000-square-foot facility in 2012 to manufacture fiber insulation components for the automotive industry. The town has been working with the county to create a bypass for the park, hoping it will encourage more businesses to locate there.

Brave Thunder watches over the herd at the Wild Winds Buffalo Preserve.
Bellow with bulls this weekend Powwow gives the big boys their due BY AMY OBERLIN aoberlin@kpcmedia.com
FREMONT — Hats off to the bull this weekend at Wild Winds Buffalo Preserve, 6975 N. Ray Road. The preserve’s inter-tribal powwow will feature the “bellowing of the bulls” — a ceremony to honor the males of the herd — Saturday and Sunday. “We celebrate the females here,” said preserve caretaker Scott Mitchell. “All the bulls get is a contest called the bellowing of the bulls contest.” At Wild Winds, the bulls will get their day, with the contest set to start at 11 a.m. following opening ceremonies at 10 a.m. Saturday by the White Oak Singers. Everyone can join the contest, with Saturday’s winner bellowing off against Sunday’s winner for the best lungs in the northeastern part of the county and a deluxe one-night stay at the preserve’s White Pines Lodge. “Last year, a woman won,” said Mitchell. There are adults’ and children’s

contests, with everybody encouraged to emulate the sound of a dominant bull.
“It’s almost like a lion roar, like a deep, throaty lion roar,” said Mitchell.
Activities are planned throughout the weekend at Wild Winds. Mitchell encouraged people to take advantage of the cultural activities. The “no politics powwow” will be a diverse showcase of Native American ways. Drummers will be set up at the burial site of Bosco — the premier bull of the Wild Winds herd who passed away at the age of 20 a year ago. The spirit of Bosco will be alive, said Mitchell, “We’ll be focused and spread that through the people that come.” There will be drummers, dancers and a vendor serving buffalo specialties. Kirk Bass of Ohio will do hawk and knife throw demonstrations. Admission costs $5, $3 for children 10 years old and under with 2-year-olds and under admitted free. Primitive camping will be available for $20. There is a Facebook page set up specifically for the event: Bellowing of the Bulls Powwow. It has been advertised on websites tailored to Native American gatherings. The closing ceremony on Sunday will honor preserve owner Dr. John Trippy and all the proceeds from the event will go back into the preserve and to throw next year’s powwow.

In Steuben County, Ruiz faes a charge of operating while intoxicated and a probation violation. Porter County authorities have charged Ruiz with driving while suspended.
Ruiz has been convicted of two counts of child molesting in Marion County. He moved to Waterloo in August 2011. Terms of his conviction required that Ruiz visit the sheriff’s department to register and update his photograph and personal information once a year. DeKalb County Sheriff’s Department employee Dave Bundy, who administers the county’s sex offender registry, said he went to Ruiz’s rural Waterloo address in April for a routine check. Bundy

Byerly has been with Urgent Care since Day 1 BY EMILY ERNSBERGER news@kpcnews.net
ANGOLA — Urgent Care of Cameron Hospital is celebrating its 25th anniversary this week and Flo Byerly has been there every step of the way. A reception will be held to mark the anniversary on Thursday from 4-6 p.m. in the Urgent Care parking lot, 1381 N. Wayne St. Free blood sugar checks and a blood pressure screening will be available as well as refreshments. The clinic, initially named Angola Urgent Care Center, was founded on Aug. 15, 1988, by doctors Berry Miller, Tom Miller,
R. Wyatt Weaver, Larry Watkins, Ted Crisman and Terry Shipe, and was located in the current Cameron Memorial Community Hospital Medical Byerly Office Building on East Maumee Street, just west of the hospital. Byerly, current director of Urgent Care, is the only person who has been a part of the service for all 25 years. Byerly started as a licensed practical nurse, later worked as
a registered nurse and became director in September 2001. “I loved Urgent Care from the first day,” she said. “I learned a lot from the local doctors and I grew as a nurse. I never thought about leaving. It’s a great place to work.” Byerly has witnessed all changes in Urgent Care, from moving buildings to being purchased by Cameron Memorial Community Hospital to adding new services. “It was really hard when the doctors left in 1999,” she said, remembering being purchased by Cameron. “But when the hospital
acquired us, it became a bigger family, and we’ve had a positive relationship.” She has also seen the addition of occupational health, mammography and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scan services, as well as adding more employees. Along with the six founding doctors, a nurse, X-ray technician and receptionist made up the original staff. Today, the staff consists of three nurses, an X-ray technician, a physician and nurse practitioner. For future growth, Byerly would like to see the expansion of Urgent Care’s occupa-

HAMILTON — The Hamilton Community Schools board on Monday approved a plan to fund its after-school program through money gleaned from a district-rescuing property tax increase. State-required after-school programs had been funded through federal money, but that revenue was sliced by the budget sequester last spring, Superintendent Jon Willman told the board. That meant those programs would need to be supported by the district’s general fund, money largely earmarked for personnel, Willman said. However, with dollars generated by a property tax increase of 44 cents per $100 of assessed value that taxpayers voted to approve last November, the money is on hand to fund the program that officials called “critical.” The district will offer a “Full Speed Ahead” program at a $6,000 cost to the district, a remediation program at a cost of $9,000, a math program at a $2,000 cost, a skills tutor program at a cost of $1,400 and a summer reading program at a $1,200 cost. The Steuben County Literacy Coalition administers Full Speed Ahead. It received approximately $190,000 in grant money for the program, serving the four school districts of Steuben County. Also Monday, the board hired a new boys varsity soccer coach, after a coach of less than two weeks submitted his resignation Monday. Taylor Cool submitted his resignation to athletics director Jesse Webb. Coolo had come under fire from the community for a perceived lack of experience. He initially was rejected by the board for the position before ultimately being hired on July 31, Cool reportedly has accepted a position with New Haven High School as its
soccer coach, Webb told the board. Webb read Cool’s resignation letter to the board, in which he detailed a difficult time facing public scrutiny throughout the process of interviewing for what Cool called his “dream job” in coaching Hamilton, his alma mater. A handful of parents previously told the board their concerns over the district’s interview process and raised questions about Cool’s coaching experience. The board on Monday hired Johnny Fugate as boys varsity soccer coach. He was granted a $1,462 stipend. The board also hired an assistant soccer coach in Scott Nusbaum for an $877 stipend and junior high soccer coach Scott Wilson for a $1,023 stipend. In other business Monday, the board: • learned that the district has a preliminary enrollment of 446 students, up from 430 last year and 419 the year before. Willman told the board the enrollment spike marks the first time the district has seen an enrollment increase for two consecutive years in the past 15 years. • hired Pam Harger as Title 1 instructional assistant at a rate of $10 per hour for seven hours a day; Haley Manahan as after-school study tables monitor at $10 per hour for one hour per day; Jeff Ervin as secondary detention supervisor at $10 per hour for one hour each Thursday; Gina Petre as cafeteria dishwasher at $8 per hour for three hours per day; Minde Raney as lighting and sound coordinator for a $438 stipend; and Debbie Thompson as consultant for speech langage therapy. • approved the resignation of cafeteria dishwasher Constance Cook. • heard from business manager and corporation treasurer Stacy Oberlin that a budget hearing will be held Sept. 26 regarding the district’s 2014 budget.

WARSAW — Two of Bowen Center’s newest satellite offices are being recognized for their efforts to combat tobacco use, the organization said. Bowen Center offices in Auburn and Angola are two of eight health care facilities to receive Rural Indiana Smoke-Free Environment (R.I.S.E.) awards for strong tobacco-free policies, according to the Indiana Rural Health Association. To receive the award, facilities must adopt and enforce comprehensive tobacco-free grounds policies. The awards were given for the ninth consecutive year at the 16th Annual Indiana Rural Health Association conference, held
cuts to his hands and was taken by a private vehicle to Parkview Noble Hospital for treatment. “Kevin wasn’t worried about himself. He was worried about saving Damion,” said Sandy Shepherd, Lisa Shepherd’s mother. Firefighters gathered at the scene after the fire and applauded the teen for his heroics, according to Riehm. “He’s my friend, my hero,” said Damion Shepherd. Williams and the boy have known each other about two years. Tuesday afternoon they were playing football in the yard between their mobile homes. “He’s my buddy,” said Williams, an East Noble sophomore and a cornerback on the football team. His right hand and wrist are wrapped in protective bandage. “I called the coach and told him what happened. I’ll be out of practice for about a week,” Williams said. The cause of the fire is under investigation. Broken windows were boarded up, but the mobile home is habitable. Noble County EMS and Kendallville police assisted Kendallville firefighters at the scene.
Shepherd went for help at her neighbors’ mobile home at 1816 Oak Tree Road where Williams lived. “Before I could finish explaining what was happening, Kevin ran out,” she said. Williams said he used his clenched right hand to punch and break the glass window to Damion’s bedroom on the north side of the mobile home. Shepherd told Williams her son was in her bedroom. He ran to the east end of the mobile home, broke a second window with his right fist and pulled the 70-pound Damion from the room that quickly was filling with smoke. “He was crying. I called to him, ‘Here, buddy,’ and pulled and lifted him out,” Williams said. Riehm said the teen saved the boy without regard to his own safety. “This could have been bad. There were aerosol cans in the trash that went off, spreading shrapnel. The fire had started to move up a wall. He had the child out before we got there,” Riehm said. Williams saved her son’s life, said Shepherd. “The things that were burned can be replaced. My son cannot,” she said. The teen suffered a sprain and

KENDALLVILLE — A 15-yearold boy is credited with saving the life of a child trapped in a bedroom fire in a mobile home Monday night. Kevin Williams broke a window with his bare hands to rescue his 5-year-old neighbor and “buddy,” Damion Shepherd. “We hear a lot about the bad things teens do, and we don’t hear enough about the good things. He saved the boy’s life,” said Kendallville Fire Chief Mike Riehm. Firefighters were dispatched at 9:58 p.m. to 1818 Oak Tree Road in the Maple Grove Mobile Home Park, on the city’s south side. Kendallville police had received a 911 call reporting a mobile home fire with a person trapped inside. Firefighters arrived on the scene at 10:02 p.m. to find smoke coming from a bedroom window in the single-wide mobile home, Riehm said. The home’s occupants, Lisa Shepherd, 27, and Damion, her son, were outside unharmed. Firefighters entered the bedroom by forcing open the door and quickly extinguished the fire in a trash container just inside the room. Firefighters had the fire under control at 10:08 p.m. The mobile home sustained smoke damage and minor fire damage. The incident happened during a thunderstorm with heavy rain and lightning. Shepherd said Tuesday she and her son were in her bedroom. When she left the room, the young boy apparently locked the door. “I was gone only a split second, and then I smelled smoke,” she said. She looked through a crack between the door and wall and saw smoke and flames. “I panicked and screamed. I couldn’t get in because the door was locked,” she said.

We provide good quality health care for Steuben County, and I think we have provided a good service.” Since it’s opening, Urgent Care has helped more than 450,000 patients, currently averaging 65 to 70 patients a day.

Carolina conservatives want more opposition in Washington LINCOLNTON, N.C. (AP) — Republican Patrick McHenry’s loudest constituents have no desire to see conciliation on gridlocked Capitol Hill, unless it comes from President Barack Obama and his fellow Democrats. As the congressman holds public questionand-answer sessions with constituents during Congress’ summer break, conservatives and GOP loyalists who enjoy significant influence in his western North Carolina district are demanding that he and his House colleagues defund “Obamacare,” refuse to raise the nation’s debt limit and generally intensify opposition to the White House and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid. Congress has abysmal approval ratings, and polls suggest that most voters want the divided government to seek out compromise. Yet the no-holdsbarred attitude on display
here — and elsewhere as other House Republicans hold town-hall style gatherings — offers an ominous forecast of the legislative battles ahead this fall and underscores how little political incentive many Republicans have to reach common ground on issues ranging from immigration to the budget. The atmosphere has put Republicans like McHenry in a challenging spot. He and others are all but forced to square their criticism of the president with their unwillingness to go as far as the far right wants. In doing so, they risk irking the party’s most conservative voters and drawing a primary challenge; many face re-election in districts Obama lost in 2012. So at nearly every event over the past week, the 37-year-old, fifth-term congressman pre-emptively opened several recent appearances by suggesting that there are limits to the

WASHINGTON (AP) — An Air Force unit that operates one-third of the nation’s land-based nuclear missiles has failed a safety and security inspection, marking the second major setback this year for a force charged with the military’s most sensitive mission, the general in charge of the nuclear air force told The Associated Press on Tuesday. Lt. Gen. James M. Kowalski, commander of Air Force Global Strike Command, said a team of “relatively low ranking” airmen failed one exercise as part of a broader inspection, which began last week and ended Tuesday. He said that for security reasons he could not be specific about the team or the exercise. “This unit fumbled on this exercise,” Kowalski said by telephone from his headquarters at Barksdale Air Force Base, La., adding that this did not call into question the safety or control of nuclear weapons at Malmstrom Air Force Base in Montana. “The team did not demonstrate the right procedures,” he said, and as a result was rated a failure. To elaborate “could reveal a potential vulnerability” in the force,
Kowalski said. In a written statement on its website, Kowalski’s command said there had been “tactical-level errors” in the snap exercise, revealing “discrepancies.” Without more details it is difficult to reliably judge the extent and severity of the problem uncovered at Malmstrom, home of the 341st Missile Wing, which is one of three nuclear missile wings. Each wing operates 150 Minuteman 3 intercontinental ballistic missiles, or ICBMs, on alert for potential launch against targets around the globe. On Capitol Hill, a spokesman for Rep. Howard “Buck” McKeon, R-Calif., chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, said that “two troubling inspections in a row at two different missile wings is unacceptable” to McKeon. “It is his sense that the Air Force must refocus on the nuclear mission,” spokesman John Noonan said. “The Air Force should hold failed leadership at the group and wing level accountable, recommit itself from the top down to the nuclear deterrent mission, and ensure a daily focus on its centrality to our nation’s security.”

GOP’s power, reminding his constituents that “elections have consequences … (and) this president is in office through 2016.” He found himself seeking to delicately explain why he doesn’t support a government shut-down or a national credit default, and why there’s only so much House Republicans can do to stop funding the health care law given that some of the federal spending is automatic. Still, at the Lincolnton Chamber of Commerce, about 40 miles outside Charlotte, Keith Gaskill told McHenry he wants to see “more backbone from the Republican Party” against Obama, Attorney General Eric Holder and the rest of the executive branch. McHenry reminded Gaskill that he voted to hold the attorney general in contempt of Congress. And, when Lincoln County resident Robert Varney insisted that
Congress should remove Holder from office, McHenry noted that the Democratic Senate would have to hold a trial. “Do you really think that would happen?” he asked Varney, who was unbowed. Varney was among voters who praised Sens. Ted Cruz of Texas and Mike Lee of Utah, tea party favorites who want to deny money for implementing Obama’s health care law even if that means not financing core government functions at all after Sept. 30. Others pressed McHenry on whether he would vote to extend the nation’s debt limit later this fall. And a crowd at Lincolnton City Hall erupted in applause when a retired FBI agent from McHenry’s hometown declared that “money is oxygen is Washington” and told McHenry that Republicans should “use the power of the purse” to extract what they want from the executive branch.

The upper-level platform from where 30-year-old Ronald Homer fell into the player’s parking lot at Monday night’s game is seen at Turner Field Tuesday in Atlanta.
Fan who died in stadium fall was regular attendee ATLANTA (AP) — A lifelong Atlanta Braves fan who fell about 85 feet to his death at the team’s stadium was waiting out a rain delay in a smoking area and talking to his mother on the Homer phone shortly before the accident. Ronald Lee Homer Jr., 30, had just told his mother that the rain was letting up and he was about to head to his seat for the game against the Philadelphia Phillies on Monday night. At least four witnesses told police that no one else was standing near him when he fell over a 42-inch high, fourth-level railing into a parking lot for players. “He said ‘I love you mom, and I said ‘I love you too’ and that was it,” his mother, Connie Homer, said in an interview on Tuesday morning. Police said the fall that
occurred around 8:30 p.m. appears to have been an accident and there was no indication of foul play. A police report released Tuesday says Homer was unconscious and wasn’t breathing when paramedics arrived. He was later pronounced dead at a hospital. Homer didn’t appear to suffer any injuries aside from ones that were associated with his fall, Fulton County Medical Office investigators said in a release. He died of blunt force trauma. Toxicology tests were pending. The frequency of such falls around the country — including two others in Atlanta in the past year — raises the question of whether stadiums are safe enough. The Braves played the Philadelphia Phillies at 7:10 p.m. Tuesday at Turner Field. A team spokeswoman declined to comment on the circumstances of Homer’s death, or whether safety changes were being made.

ID your pets for peace of mind BY ANNETTE RYAN KLEINHENZ
We heard scratching on wood between frantic barks from our dogs alerting us to a visitor. A sleek young black dog stood on her hind legs clawing on our front door. It was early morning and the poor thing wanted in. She was clean, healthy and wiggling from nose to tail, happy she found someone home. We assumed she was lost or at least misplaced. She had a collar with a phone number and in no time we had Lilly reunited with her family. Identification is all that stands between a pet on the lam and the shelter, or the disagreeable fate of being stolen or trying to find food and shelter as a stray. Mike is an adorable and strong over-sized puppy. He dashed between my legs as I opened the door to take out the trash. Three adults and a basset hound went tearing through the woods, briars and mud after him as he headed toward the marsh. We finally tackled him and it looked like a scene from a mud-wrestling tournament. He wore tags from his home in Cleveland, but he was in Steuben County with his family. Mike has a great nose but he is a city dog, not used to wetlands and woods, and he might have had a problem finding his way back. You can try to find the owner of a lost pet or call local law enforcement and they will call in animal control (aka the dog catcher, a Steuben County Humane Society shelter employee). You cannot call the dog catcher on your own. The dog catcher will take the animal to the shelter, give it food and water and put it in a safe and comfortable holding pen. The shelter holds the animal for five days in order for you to come get it. On day six the animal is considered abandoned and it goes up for adoption. Take a photo to the shelter to improve the chances of finding your pet. Our shelter is a very busy place but one of their high priorities, and one of their greatest joys, is sending new deliveries back to their rightful homes. If you are near a county border you cannot assume a pet running on the loose has remained in Steuben County so contact the other county shelter as well. Your pet can get lost while you are on vacation or you could be out looking for your pet. Include a cell number on the tags so if a kind stranger has corralled the animal they can notify you right away. Jasmine, a beautiful and curious long-hair cat, silently slipped out when UPS hoisted a huge and heavy box through the wide open door of her suburban Steuben County home. This was in the morning and no one missed her until afternoon. A worried family spent hours and hours searching for their

cat. At nearly midnight a distant neighbor heard a rake and bucket clattering on cobblestones and found Jasmine quivering with chill and anxiety trying to jump into their shed. The reunion was swift and easy because she wore tags. It was the locating her that was hard. Cats and dogs are lost every day in Steuben County. Many are found and safely returned but some are not. How can you keep your pet from becoming a sad statistic? Even if you have indoor pets or you don’t ordinarily socialize with your neighbors, let your neighbors know you have pets, what kind, their names and introduce your animals and neighbors, or at least show them pictures. Little 9-pound Cammie, a definite indoor dog, escaped on a cold spring night. Her frightened owners were up until 3, calling and driving and scouring the neighborhood. No one on the block knew Cammie. A very nice person only eight doors down who didn’t see the family out searching and didn’t know this dog, scooped up the terrified Cammie from their driveway and because she was clearly a house pet but had no tags and it was too late to do anything else, let her spend the night in their bathroom. Cammie had tags but a month ago the attachment ring broke and the tags were lying on the kitchen windowsill until her owner could get new hardware. By the time Cammie was found, the owner had lost a
great deal of sleep and her family had been robbed of a day’s peace of mind. Even if you have to do a temporary safety pin or wire job, keep tags on your animals. Buy a backup set of tag and ring, and put them away or purchase an embroidered collar as back up ID (luckypet.com). Most people will call a phone number, but not everyone will go further than that. If there is no tag you are taking a huge chance on getting your animal back. Which brings us to microchipping, the electronic tag. The first thing the shelter does is scan for a microchip. Veterinarians do the same. It’s cheap and easy to get your animal microchipped. Microchips cannot fall off. You need a scanner to read a chip, so you also need tags for rapid identification. A microchip is the best and most fail-proof identification available in the United States. Keep a current photo of your pet available, one you can email. If you need to put up posters or alert the shelter for your pet’s potential arrival, a recent color photo is invaluable. Teach your pet to come when you call. If your
animal escapes they may feel they are on a grand adventure, and ignore you or not hear you calling, but they probably will once the excitement of being on the loose dwindles. When out looking for your pet take a leash and food treats. If you see your pet and they will not come back, toss food at them and a treat may be the lure you need to get them close enough to grab them. Spay or neuter your animal. Females in heat or males on the scent of a female may be single minded and highly creative about getting out of the house or yard. It’s a fact of nature. Keep your pet busy and entertained. A bored pet will bolt to seek adventure. Check the security of your pet enclosures, the latches and perimeters. If your automatic door closers operate slowly, consider increasing their speed. If guests keep getting the uniquely operating latch on your door or gate wrong, change it to something simpler. Does your pet dig at the bottom of the fence? Is the leash or tie-out strong enough to tolerate a serious lunge? Does the collar fit? Even if your cat or dog loves you, they may take the chance to go on an adventure, so look at their environment and think like a cat or dog. Where and how could they escape? If your pet is missing check your neighborhood, tell everyone you can in your area, call the shelter, post photos, take a photo to the shelter, and keep looking. Many cats and dogs are returned unharmed so don’t automatically assume your pet was lunch for a predator, kidnapped or died of exposure. Those are possible outcomes, but not inevitable. Identification is the best insurance for being reunited with your pet. Notification and distributing pictures is the best way to find your pet. Please remember that if you come to the shelter looking for a lost pet it will not be in the general cage area for five days so you must tell the staff why you are visiting. They will take you to the holding areas. Visit in person and if your pet is not there, leave them your contact information written on a recent color photo. Nothing puts a smile on the shelter’s day like the joyful reunion of pet and owner. It helps make up for the sorrowful things we see. ANNETTE RYAN KLEINHENZ

COUNCIL: Hint made at finding new revenue FROM PAGE A1
“I don’t disagree with any of that, but how do we fund all of that,� Council President Rick Shipe asked. Other council members suggested the requests be taken up during the annual budget writing process, which is starting in the coming weeks. “Unfortunately for Mr. Hess, his work isn’t on our timeline,� Caruso said. There have been two murder trials already this year, one from a 2012 case and an attempted murder case from 2004. An additional murder
case has been filed from a July 7 Jimmerson Lake incident in which there are two defendants. A 1989 cold case has also become active in the system. That’s five murder or attempted murder defendants and their cases from four murders or attempted murders the prosecutor has handled this year. During his presentation, Hess said the five murder cases this year compares to six total in the 20 years the previous prosecutor, Tom Wilson, served. He was replaced by Hess in 2011 after Wilson retired. Hess
was elected in 2010. During budget time, council members said, staffing needs will be an issue. Councilwoman Linda Hansen said it might be a matter of trying to determine whether to pull staff from one department so another can grow. Caruso said he didn’t want to see taxes increase, but Councilwoman Sara Tubergen suggested that might be a consideration. “During budget time, I think we need to sit down and look at ways to raise additional revenue,� Tubergen said.
utilities reconstruction and sewer, Maumee Streetscape engineering, downtown parking and a convenience facility purchase of the former Wendy’s restaurant building, a new well at the main water treatment plant, rain garden and drain improvements in the Public Square’s southwest quadrant and various treatment plant improvements. Some of the other budget items that were noted were: • a big difference in the fire fund. Last year, income and benefits came out below budget, Twitchell said. That excess amount will be placed back into the general fund. • Angola Police Chief Stu Hamblen is requesting $57,000 be budgeted to
equip three new vehicles — all cars — two will be marked and one will be unmarked. • “I want to shoot for the moon and get a lot done quickly,â€? said Tom Selman, water superintendent. Selman told the council that the city’s water plants aren’t operating at full capacity. He’s also like a satellite plant up and running. “We have lot of good assets in the water department. They’re just not dialed in,â€? he said. • State Sen. Sue Glick, R-LaGrange, recently announced Angola would receive $91,000 more for roads. Twitchell said that amount is reflected in the budget. • The budget includes $250,000 for the purchase and razing of the old
Wendy’s restaurant building downtown. In doing so, the city would turn it into a convenience facility with parking. The proposed convenience facility was in Angola’s Stellar Community application for grant funding earlier this year. Angola was a Stellar finalist, but did not receive the designation. • Angola Fire Chief Mike Meek reported the jaws of life the city received from Steuben County some 20 or 30 years ago recently broke. While he said his department can make do with two other jaws, he budgeted $20,000 for a new one. The city’s budget must be adopted by council Nov. 1, at which time it will be forwarded to the Indiana Department of Local Government and Financing.
TALKS: Meetings slated for today in Jerusalem FROM PAGE A1
be released in four batches, although their freedom is contingent on progress in peace talks. Israelis and Palestinians are to launch talks in Jerusalem today, following a preparatory round two weeks ago in Washington. Among those released Tuesday was a Palestinian convicted in the 1994 slaying of Isaac Rotenberg, a 69-year-old Holocaust survivor who was attacked with an ax as he was working at a construction site where he was a contractor. Others were convicted in the slayings of Ian Feinberg, an Israeli lawyer killed in a European aid office in Gaza in 1993, and Frederick Rosenfeld, an American slain while hiking in the West Bank in 1989. Thousands of Palestinians have spent time in Israeli prisons since Israel’s capture of the West Bank, Gaza and east Jerusalem in 1967. They were jailed on charges ranging from throwing rocks to killing civilians in
bombings, shootings and other attacks. On Monday, Israel’s prison service posted the names online of the first 26 inmates to be released to allow for possible court appeals. Israel’s Supreme Court rejected an appeal by families of those killed by the prisoners earlier Tuesday. The fate of the prisoners is extremely emotional in Palestinian society. After decades of fighting Israel, many families have had a member imprisoned and the release of prisoners has been a longstanding demand. Most of the inmates already have served around 20 years, with the longestheld arrested in 1985. Fourteen of the prisoners were released to the Gaza Strip and 12 to the West Bank. Earlier Tuesday, Israel angered Palestinians when it announced it was moving forward with building nearly 900 new settlement homes in east Jerusalem. The Palestinians had refused to resume negoti-
ations with Israel unless it halted settlement construction in territory it wants for a future state. Israel has refused insisting that settlements and other core issues be resolved through talks. After six trips to the region, Kerry managed to persuade Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to drop the settlement issue as a condition for negotiations to start. In exchange, Israel agreed to the prisoner release. The Palestinians argue the settlements, now home to more than 500,000 Israelis, are making it increasingly difficult to carve out their state and that continued Israeli construction is a sign of bad faith. Hanan Ashrawi, a senior Palestinian official, said Israel’s settlement plans are a slap in the face of the Palestinians and Kerry. “It is not just deliberate sabotage of the talks, but really a destruction of the outcome,� she said. Ashrawi urged Kerry “to stand up to Israel� and deliver a tough response.

Irish focusing on present SOUTH BEND (AP) — Notre Dame is trying to focus on the present. And who can blame the Irish? Not much has gone right for them since the calendar turned to 2013. After enjoying their first unbeaten regular season since 1988, when they last won the national championship, the new year started with an embarrassing 42-14 loss to Alabama in the BCS title game, followed quickly by news that linebacker Manti Te’o had been the victim of an equally embarrassing hoax — a girlfriend who never was. Then there was the disclosure that coach Brian Kelly had interviewed with the Philadelphia Eagles, the revelation that quarterback Everett Golson had been suspended for the fall for poor academic judgment and the defection of blue chip signee Eddie Vanderdoes to UCLA. Talk about luck of the Irish. Kelly says those problems are behind Notre Dame as it seeks to prove it is ready to consistently contend for national titles. “We’ve worked hard to put ourselves in a position to be back in the national spotlight. We have no intention of giving that up,” Kelly said. Here are five things to watch as the Irish look to post four straight winning seasons for the first time since 1995-98 and seek back-toback seasons with nine victories or more for the first time since 2005-06. 1. NEW STARS: The Irish lost their best big-play players in linebacker Manti Te’o, tight end Tyler Eifert (both NFL draft picks) and Golson. The two biggest-name returnees are defensive linemen
AP
In this April 20 file photo, Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly heads off the field after the Blue-Gold spring NCAA college football game in South Bend. After enjoying the best regular season since winning its last national championship in 1988, not much has gone right for the Fighting Irish since the calendar turned to 2013.
Louis Nix III and Stephon Tuitt. The Irish need to find a go-to guy on offense and leaders on defense. On offense, the Irish need to establish a deep threat. Aside from TJ Jones and DeVaris Daniels, no other returning receiver caught more than seven passes. Te’o was the face of the defense, winning just about every award shy of the Heisman. On offense and defense, the Irish need to find playmakers.
2. REPLACING GOLSON: Golson wasn’t outstanding as a first-year starter, but good enough to help the Irish go 12-0 during the regular season and get to the national championship game. Tommy Rees is back in as the starter after losing out to Golson by throwing 14 interceptions and losing five fumbles in 2011. He is 14-4 as a starter and played key roles in four victories last season.
The Irish need him to make good decisions and be an accurate passer. Kelly is looking to return to the fast-tempo offense his squads were known for at Cincinnati and Central Michigan. Kelly says he believes having Rees at quarterback will make it easier because he knows the offense better and can read defenses better than Golson. Kelly also says he’ll considering using a “complementary” quarterback, meaning he could insert Andrew Hendrix to establish a running threat. 3. DOMINANT DEFENSE: Notre Dame looked like a dominant defense until it ran into Alabama, giving up season highs in points, total offense (529 yards), rushing yards (265) and first downs (28). The Irish return eight starters from a squad that finished seventh in the nation in total defense — their best showing in 32 years. The Irish say they believe even without Te’o they can be even better than last year. The last time the Irish were ranked in the top 10 in total defense in back-to-back seasons was in 1973 (No. 2) and 1974 (No. 1) — the last two seasons Ara Parseghian was coach. 4. BALL CARRIERS: The Irish finished 38th in the nation in rushing offense, their best finish in 11 seasons. But their top two rushers from last season, Theo Riddick (917 yards) and Cierre Wood (742 yards) are gone and the Irish are without Golson (298 yards). Notre Dame’s only 1,000-yard rusher the past six seasons was Wood in 2011. The leading candidates to carry the load this year are SEE NOTRE DAME, PAGE B2
Rays sent to 6th straight loss Hornet girls 6th in invite ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — Leadoff hitter Brad Miller homered twice to help the Seattle Mariners send the Tampa Bay Rays to their sixth straight loss with a 5-4 victory on Tuesday night. Miller has four home runs this season, which have come in a pair of two-homer games. He connected for his first two big league homers on July 19 at Houston. Tampa Bay also got two homers from its leadoff hitter, Ben Zobrist. According to the Rays, it is just the third time since 1916, when records are available, that both leadoff hitters had multihomer games. The others were June 5, 1994 (Minnesota’s Chuck Knoblauch and Tony Phillips of Detroit) and July 8, 1965 (Houston’s Joe Morgan and Felipe Alou of the Milwaukee Braves). After Justin Smoak ended Chris Archer’s night with a leadoff single in the sixth, Dustin Ackley gave Seattle a 5-4 lead on a triple off Wesley Wright. Zobrist got the Rays even at 4 on his second homer of the game, a two-run shot in the fifth against Erasmo Ramirez (4-0), who allowed four runs and seven hits in 5 1-3 innings. Danny Farquhar pitched the ninth for his fifth save. Smoak had a two-run single through a defensive shift as the Mariners went ahead 3-2 in the fourth. Miller’s second homer of the game, a fifth-inning shot, made it 4-2. Archer (6-5), who left his previous start last Wednesday at Arizona after 1 2-3 innings due to right forearm tightness, gave up five runs and nine hits over five-plus innings. Miller opened the game with

Detroit Lions running back Reggie Bush runs during the first quarter of a preseason NFL game against the New York Jets at Ford Field in Detroit on Friday.
Lions go deep in backfield
ALLEN PARK, Mich. (AP) — Running back Reggie Bush was one of the bigger free-agent signings in Detroit Lions history. That doesn’t means he will be hogging the carries this season. Joique Bell and Mikel Leshoure rushed for more than a combined 1,000 yards in Detroit’s pass-happy offense last year and offensive coordinator Scott Linehan thinks there’s still room for both of them. “They’ve all got experience,” Linehan said. “Reggie’s got the most and, really, Joique got a great year for us last year with the injuries and Mikel being there, too. They complement each other and they’ll be seeing some snaps for us.” Bush made his biggest impact as a receiver and returner after New Orleans drafted him in the first round of the 2006 draft. He showed he could be an everyday running back after he went to Miami before the 2011 season. There, he rushed for 1,086 and 986 yards in consecutive seasons before becoming a free agent. It’s likely the Lions will continue to take advantage of his abilities as a receiver, much the same way Linehan did with Jahvid Best, who was let go following recurring effects from a concussion. Leshoure missed his entire rookie season with an
Achilles tendon injury and was out the first two games last year due to a suspension. He proved to be Detroit’s most reliable back, gaining 798 yards on 215 carries and scoring a team-best nine touchdowns. He also caught 34 passes for 214 yards. Bell, who once worked part-time as a security guard while playing at nearby Wayne State, spent his first two professional seasons bouncing around a handful of practice squads before he was signed by the Lions near the end of the 2011 season. He gained 414 yards while averaging five yards per carry and scored three touchdowns out of the backfield last year. He also caught 52 passes for 485 yards. Much of his playing time came because Best was unable to play due to a concussion. “With a couple young players to add to what we’re doing now with Reggie in the fold, everybody kind of brings something different to the table,” Linehan said. Detroit could use a boost for its running game. It ranked 24th in the league with 81 yards per game, but that made them a good fit in the NFC North, where none of the four teams cracked the top 20 in rushing yards. The Lions play their second exhibition game Thursday night at Cleveland and open the season Sept. 8 against visiting Minnesota.

NOTRE DAME: Irish football squad full of sons with famous fathers
Six boats enjoyed the breeze and pounded through power boat waves. Stiefel, who lives at Lake George during the summer months, served as race chair. The fleet completed a two-lap triangle race and a Modified Olympic race. Each skipper will be scored for the better of her/his finishes. Jeff Smith, also of Lake George, was close behind Stiefel in second place in both races. John Albright of Indianapolis lost his tiller extension between the races, but toughed it out and competed in the second race without it.
LEXINGTON, Ky. — The American Volleyball Coaches Association announced last Wednesday that the Trine University women’s volleyball team earned the association’s Team Academic Award for the 2012-13 season. It is the first AVCA Team Academic Award for the Thunder under head coach Jamie Wozniak and just the second time for the program since Trine became an NCAA member school in 2004. The Thunder spikers also earned the honor for the 2005-06 season. The Trine squad adds to its academic honors for the 2012-13 year after earning the Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association Team GPA award. It was one of seven MIAA schools honored among the 93 AVCA Team Academic Award winners in NCAA Division III. In all, 622 teams earned the honor. The AVCA Team Academic Award, which was initiated during the 1992-93 academic year, honors collegiate and high school volleyball teams that maintain at least a 3.3 cumulative team grade point average on a 4.0 scale or a 4.10 cumulative team GPA on a 5.0 scale.
Trine takes part in retreat INDIANAPOLIS — Trine University track & field student-athletes Dakota Bagwell from Kokomo and Luke Fimreite from McCordsville were part of the Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association’s Student-Athlete Advisory Committee who attended the committee’s annual retreat at the NCAA headquarters Aug. 2 and 3. The MIAA’s SAAC met with NCAA staff, who gave a number of presentations ranging from how the NCAA is governed to upcoming proposals being considered. The MIAA group also toured the NCAA Hall of Champions, which currently features an exhibit honoring the MIAA’s 125th anniversary. Bagwell, who is entering his junior year at Trine, was chosen vice president of the MIAA’s SAAC. Thunder men’s track and cross country coach Charlie Massi was among the SAAC advisors who also attended the retreat.
Colts try to get owner’s message INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The Indianapolis Colts got the message, loud and clear. The team owner expects a sharper performance and a better effort Sunday night against the New York Giants. One day after Jim Irsay used Twitter to apologize to fans for Indy’s poor showing in the preseason opener, players and coaches got back to work Tuesday, looking for solutions. “I’ve been around owners who have called players out and demanded more out of you,” defensive lineman Cory Redding said. “Some guys need to be called out because they react better that way, in a good way. I think he lit a fire under some people.” That was essentially the point. In his Monday post, Irsay described Sunday’s 44-20 blowout loss to Buffalo as a “crap performance.” Irsay also explained he had already spoken to his “commanders” and that he had given them an “earful.” Team spokesman Avis Roper said those discussions took place after the game. “There’s no need to panic,” coach Chuck Pagano said. “But certainly,
everybody’s accountable and everybody understands what they have to do.” Irsay spent nearly $140 million in free agency to add size and speed to the often-maligned defense, to rebuild an offensive line that allowed Andrew Luck to be sacked 41 times and to perform better on special teams. Instead, what the Colts owner saw against Buffalo was a Bills team that broke its franchise record for points in a preseason game despite playing two rookie quarterbacks, Luck sacked once and Chandler Harnish under consistent duress, and Bills kick returner Marquise Goodwin setting up one score with a 53-yard return and tying the score with a 107-yard return for a TD. That’s not what Irsay or the fans expected. And it’s certainly not what the players or coaches envisioned. “You can tell his heart is in the Colts 100 percent and his players, I think, at least I do personally, really appreciate how much he (Irsay) cares,” Luck said. “If that’s the way he felt, then I think more power to him for making those thoughts known.”

SPORTS BRIEFS • Voters to decide on $217M Astrodome bond issue HOUSTON (AP) — The fate of a plan to renovate the Houston Astrodome, an iconic stadium that’s fallen into disrepair since it was shuttered four years ago, will be in the hands of voters this fall. Harris County commissioners on Tuesday approved placing a measure on the Nov. 5 ballot that will ask voters to authorize up to $217 million in bonds to pay for a plan to turn the stadium into a giant convention center and exhibition space. County commissioners, who unanimously approved placing the measure on the ballot, said it was important that voters decide the Astrodome’s future. Commissioners stressed Tuesday that voters must understand that approval of the measure would lead to a property tax increase of around half a cent per $100 of assessed value. Officials said they will try to make that as clear as possible on the ballot measure. On a home valued at about $200,000, officials said a person’s tax bill would go up about $8 per year if the measure is approved. Officials say tax breaks, naming rights and other incentives are expected to lower the project’s cost. The final figure on the ballot is expected to be lower than $217 million. Opened in 1965, the Astrodome was dubbed the “Eighth Wonder of the World.” The 400,000-square foot dome was once home to Major League Baseball’s Houston Astros and the NFL’s Houston Oilers. It was also home to the city’s rodeo until 2003.
Colts activate Bradshaw, Angerer from PUP list ANDERSON (AP) — The Indianapolis Colts have activated running back Ahmad Bradshaw and linebacker Pat Angerer from the physically unable to perform list. Both are eligible to practice, though Bradshaw said Tuesday he would not play against the Giants, his former team, on Sunday night. Indy signed Bradshaw in June after he had offseason surgery on his right foot. When training camp opened July 27, Bradshaw was already on the PUP list. That barred him from practicing until he was activated. But after participating in a walkthrough last week, league officials instructed the Colts to activate Bradshaw. Coach Chuck Pagano called Bradshaw day-to-day and said he would be eased into practice. Angerer, the Colts’ top tackler in 2011, also had offseason surgery on his right foot.
N.D. oil patch city prepares for brief baseball boom FARGO, N.D. (AP) — A city in the heart of the western North Dakota oil patch will be changing its label from Boomtown USA to baseball town for one week. Williston is the host site for the 13-year-old Babe Ruth World Series. Pool play for the 10-team tournament is scheduled to begin Saturday. Some of the teams are preparing for a long day of travel on Wednesday. The Niskayuna, N.Y., team will be taking a bus about 200 miles to Boston, flying to Chicago and Fargo, and catching another bus for the 400-mile trip to Williston. Niskayuna coach Chris Bianchi says his players are treating the trip as an adventure. He says the travel might be hardest on the adults. Three of the teams are from North Dakota: Williston, Fargo and Grand Forks.
Albany coach Bob Ford announces retirement ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — Longtime University at Albany football coach Bob Ford is coaching his last season. Ford announced Tuesday at the team’s media day that he’ll retire after the season. Hired in 1970, he’s the longest tenured coach in college football. With 264 career victories, Ford ranks second among all active college coaches and first among active Division I coaches. He’s been named Northeast Conference coach of the year four times and has led the Great Danes to six NEC titles. At one time, Ford was the youngest head football coach in the nation when at 26 he took over the reins at St. Lawrence University in 1965. He will end his career as the nation’s oldest. He turns 76 next month.
Colquitt now highest-paid punter in family, NFL ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — Britton Colquitt is the NFL’s new highest-paid punter. Colquitt became the league’s highestpaid punter when he signed his three-year, $11.7 million extension upon arriving to work Monday. The deal included a $3 million signing bonus that, when added to this year’s $1.275 million salary, also makes him the NFL’s highest-compensated punter in 2013. His extension averages $3.9 million a season, besting the $3.75 million average that his older brother, Dustin, is getting with a five-year, $18.75 million deal he signed this spring with the Kansas City Chiefs. Colquitt’s father, Craig, won two Super Bowls as the Pittsburgh Steelers’ punter from 1978-84.

Eric Holder and Jeffrey Jarrett Yes, Mr. Holder, there are things worse than nonviolent illegal drug offenders. Crimes against children come to mind. And so does Jeffrey Jarrett. On Monday in DeKalb County Superior Court II, Jarrett, 35, of the 2600 block of C.R. 56, Auburn, pleaded guilty to two counts of theft of more than $100,000, a Class C felony, and two counts of theft, a Class D felony, as part of a plea agreement. Jarrett, a DeKalb County investment adviser, has admitted the theft of $354,000 from four of his clients. Sentencing is open to the court, and the court will establish the terms MATT of restitution, including restitution in three charges GETTS that will be dismissed as part of the plea agreement. The charges to be dismissed are theft, a Class C felony; forgery, a Class C felony; and theft, a Class D felony. A Class C felony carries a possible sentence of two to eight years in prison, and a Class D felony carries a possible penalty of six months to three years in prison. Judge Monte Brown took the agreement under advisement and scheduled a sentencing hearing for Oct. 7. Also on Monday, U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder announced a major shift in federal sentencing policies. According to The Associated Press, the shift targets long mandatory terms that Holder said have flooded the nation’s prisons with low-level drug offenders and have diverted crime-fighting dollars that could be far better spent. As a first step, Holder has instructed federal prosecutors to stop charging many nonviolent drug defendants with offenses that carry Basically, the United mandatory minimum States of America no sentences. longer can afford to Holder said he wants to finance the incarceradivert people tion of low-level drug convicted of low-level offenders. offenses to drug treatment and community service programs and expand a prison program to allow for release of some elderly, nonviolent offenders. Basically, the United States of America no longer can afford to finance the incarceration of low-level drug offenders. No one wants to live next to a drug dealer, low-level or not (unless you are a drug user, one supposes). But apparently, no one wants to pay to make sure that doesn’t happen (though no one from the federal government has called to ask me if this is the case or not.). By encouraging this behavior, Holder is giving the federal government’s endorsement of permitting a type of behavior most of us find abhorrent to occur in our neighborhoods. Realistically, there are worse things than selling dime bags of marijuana. Take Mr. Jarrett’s crimes. While no motive has been discussed for the thefts he has admitted to, it doesn’t take a large leap in cognition to come to the conclusion that greed had something to do with it. In at least two instances, the victims were retired people who had trusted Jarrett to take their money and turn it into more money. The future these people had prepared for has taken a serious hit. While it could be argued that petty drug crimes are victimless, Jarrett’s crimes are heinous because there are victims. At least to some extent, Jarrett has taken away not just money, but also a sense of security. Hopefully, Judge Brown will send a stronger message on Oct. 7 than Holder sent on Monday.

Letters to The Editor • Education is a lifetime adventure To the editor: Recently, there has been a lot of attention given to education. There is talk of test scores, schedules, costs and grading. In all this, the most important phases of education have been ignored. Overlooked is the fact that education is a lifetime adventure. We come into this world knowing nothing. The most gifted orator could not speak, the greatest athlete could not walk, and the most fastidious person could not care for himself or herself. All we know is learned behavior. Our education begins shortly after we are born, and the best seat of learning is a home with caring parents. These early instructions include fair, firm and gentle discipline. Respect, good manners and instructions of right and wrong must be learned. Good communication expressed in appropriate language and the importance of obedience is learning during these years. The importance of sharing and living with siblings and friends needs to be taught. Creativity, imagination and responsibility needs encouragement. The list goes on while a feeling of love and safety is provided. These lessons are the start of a happy life. The next phase was once called “common sense.” It is taking early lessons plus academic learning into everyday
life. Life is not programmed minute by minute in any manual, so a bit of thinking is involved. Cause and effect, and that actions have consequences or rewards must be understood. As a modern society, we are not encouraged to think, and common sense is not so common. The best teachers in life are experiences. We must learn from our mistakes and watching the mistakes of others. Our society would be much better if we spent more time learning the lessons of life outside the classroom. Academics are very important, but lessons in moral behavior, citizenship and charity are the ones which make a better society and happy individuals. Charles Cole Auburn
Bry expresses gratitude for Noble County’s vision To the editor: It has been a wonderful three years and a half plus years. It has been my pleasure to serve Noble County. My time with the visitors bureau will certainly be one of the highlights of my career always. I am so proud of the accomplishments we have achieved together, and to witness Noble County’s continued rise as a model example of what a collaborative spirit can achieve. More work lies ahead, and I am confident Sheryl, David and the CVB board will continue to move Noble County in aspiring and
positive directions for the development of tourism and grassroots community development initiatives. I am so very proud of Noble County, its communities and its people. For the next year I will turn my attention to the completion of my master’s degree at Ball State University — a goal I have put aside for far too long. Thank you for your friendship, support, dedication and commitment to an exciting vision for Noble County. Thank you for allowing me to be part of your community, and the inspiration you have given me time and time again. John Bry Auburn
Good art can be bad public policy To the editor: There is a point missing when people ask if a piece of art is “a hunk of junk” in a predictably boosterish defense of Fort Wayne’s Freiman Square’s nonobjective sculpture, “Helmholtz.” It is that good art can be bad public policy. Roger Starr, a member of the New York Times editorial board, devotes a chapter of his New York history to the thesis that the elite there got so caught up in the “all is relative” spirit of nonobjective art that they lost judgment, tempting financial ruin: “It is not overreaching to suggest that when the institutional leaders of a city make
modern painting and sculpture their most prized art form, and when they devote as much time, intelligence and, not least, money to its pursuit as the New York leaders of the postwar world did, they demonstrate a set of values that endangers those needed to keep an urban polity on a firm, reasonable and safe course.” Starr, formerly New York’s housing commissioner, contended that modern art is contra productive to the degree it influences government decision-making. “Sympathetic critics of nonobjective art ascribe meaning in portentous statements that the intra-canvas artifacts allegedly express,” he wrote. “Unfortunately, real life cannot survive on portentous statements; it requires the knowledge that iron is hard, and exactly how hard, and how much harder it is than flesh. It is the value of precisely such discrimination the canons of nonobjective art condemn.” As if to prove that point, “Helmholtz” (or at least its welds) buckled in a low-speed crash in the wee hours of the morning — no match, at least, for a more reality-based work of art, the 2013 GMC Sierra truck, crafted, incidentally, at the plant just inside the county line. It might have been a statement. It might have been an accident. It certainly was poetry. Craig Ladwig Fort Wayne
Land of three rivers: from Miami capital to Fort Wayne It’s no coincidence that Indiana’s second largest city occupies land that once served as a capital of the Miami Indian Nation. Native Americans chose Fort Wayne for its strategic location. The confluence of three rivers — St. Joseph, St. Marys and Maumee — would prove equally appealing to French fur traders, English military men and American pioneers. “This area was important for one main reason,” explains Kathleen O’Connell, a volunteer for Historic Fort Wayne. “Three rivers converged at a point where there was a short portage of six to nine miles to another series of rivers that would ultimately take you all the way to the Gulf of Mexico.” Historic Fort Wayne is a not-for-profit group that manages the Old Fort, a replica of the last active fort in the Three Rivers Area. It is located near the original Miami village of Kekionga. James Madison, in his book, The Indiana Way, describes Kekionga as “the meeting ground of the Miami tribal council” and “one of the most significant strategic locations in the trans-Appalachian West.” The French arrived at Kekionga in the late 17th Century and built a fortified trading post as a way to lay claim to the region. A series of forts followed. The first was built between 1712 and 1722 adjacent to the St. Marys River near where the portage trail began. It was known by different names: St. Phillipe, Post Miami or Fort Miami. It was primarily a trading post for the fur traders but also a base for French soldiers.
During the 1730s and 1740s, the British sought to gain profits in the fur trade by eliminating French competition. They gained the support of the local Indians, who burned Fort Miami in 1747. In 1750, the French rebuilt the fort at a new location on the east side of the St. Joseph River. In 1760, at the end of the French and Indian War, this fort was surrendered to the British. Native forces destroyed it in 1763 during Pontiac’s Rebellion, an ANDREA uprising against the British. In 1794, after the final NEAL battle of the Northwest Indian War, Gen. Anthony Wayne established the first American fort on the site. A new structure was built in 1798, and it proved pivotal during the War of 1812, turning back repeated assaults by heavily armed Indians. In 1816, Major John Whistler oversaw construction of the last active military fort. His drawings were the basis for the replica that opened in 1976 to celebrate the nation’s bicentennial. The fort is open to the public for field trips and special occasions such as the upcoming “Fort Miamies Aug. 24-25,” which commemorates the time of French occupation. By interacting with re-enactors dressed in historic garb, visitors may better appreciate Indiana history prior to statehood.

Briefs • Brazil demands answers on NSA BRASILIA, Brazil (AP) — Brazil demanded answers Tuesday from the U.S. about National Security Agency spying in the country and warned that trust between the two nations would be damaged if U.S. explanations about the program were not satisfactory. U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, who was visiting Brasilia, sought to allay Brazil’s concerns about the program, saying the U.S. would work to provide answers to Brazil and other Latin American nations rankled by the NSA surveillance revealed by systems analyst Edward Snowden. “We’re now facing a new type of challenge in our bilateral relationship,” Brazil Foreign Minister Antonio Patriota said at a news conference. “The challenge is related to news about the interception of Brazilian electronic and telephone communications. And if those challenges are not resolved in a satisfactory way, we run the risk of casting a shadow of distrust over our work.”
Detroit billboards give wrong date to go to the polls DETROIT (AP) — Billboards promoting Detroit’s upcoming general election offered up some erroneous information about when to go to the polls. The Detroit Free Press reports that many of the 14 billboards gave a September date for the election. The vote will actually take place Nov. 5. City Clerk Janice Winfrey says the billboards were updated Saturday with information about the general election, and she calls the September date “a mistake” by the business that handles the billboards.
People • Oprah ‘sorry’ for Switzerland flap LOS ANGELES (AP) — Oprah Winfrey says she’s “sorry” that a media frenzy emerged after saying she experienced racism during a trip to Switzerland. “I think that incident in SwitzerWinfrey land was just an incident in Switzerland. I’m really sorry that it got blown up. I purposefully did not mention the name of the store. I’m sorry that I said it was Switzerland,” Winfrey said Monday night at the Los Angeles premiere of “Lee Daniels: The Butler.” “I was just referencing it as an example of being in a place where people don’t expect that you would be able to be there,” she continued. In a recent interview with “Entertainment Tonight,” Winfrey recalled a clerk at an upscale Zurich boutique refusing to show her a handbag. Winfrey said she was told she could not afford the $38,000 purse.

Government sues to block airline merger DALLAS (AP) — American Airlines and US Airways expected to spend this week cruising toward completion of their huge merger, a deal that was worth $14 billion on paper and would create the world’s biggest airline. Instead, they were stunned Tuesday when the federal government and six states sued to block the deal, saying it would hurt competition and cost consumers hundreds of millions of dollars a year in higher fares and extra fees. Antitrust regulators had done little to interfere with three other big airline mergers in the past five years, so they were not
expected to stand in the way of American and US Airways. But this latest deal would leave four airlines controlling more than 80 percent of the U.S. air-travel market. The Justice Department turned the words of US Airways leaders against them. The 56-page lawsuit filed in federal district court in Washington, D.C., was peppered with quotes from internal emails, investor presentations and public comments in which the airlines’ top executives noted that previous mergers had helped lead to higher fares and higher fees to check a bag or change a ticket.
Executives of the two companies vowed to challenge the lawsuit. “We will fight them,” declared US Airways CEO Doug Parker, who would run the combined company. Paul Denis, a Washington antitrust lawyer hired by US Airways, said Tuesday was the Justice Department’s “best day.” “They got to hold their press conference. Now they’ve got to try their case in court,” he said. Tom Horton, CEO of American Airlines parent AMR Corp., noted that the companies had spent months trying to convince the Justice Department that the merger would
help customers and boost competition by creating a tough new rival to larger airlines United and Delta. “Since the DOJ has formed a contrary view, the matter will now be settled by the courts,” Horton said. AMR has been operating under bankruptcy protection since November 2011. It has cut labor costs, renegotiated aircraft and other leases and earned $220 million profit in the second quarter — its first profit in the April-toJune period in six years. It is forging ahead with an order for hundreds of new airplanes. The company had expected that the highlight of this week would be a
Thursday hearing in which a federal bankruptcy court judge would approve its reorganization plan, including the merger. That would be one of the final steps before AMR could exit Chapter 11 protection by the end of September. The hearing is likely to go ahead, and the judge could approve AMR’s turnaround plan on the condition that the Justice Department’s opposition is resolved. But AMR probably won’t come out of bankruptcy for at least a few more months while it fights the lawsuit, officials at the companies said.

Eurozone turning a corner as the recession set to end LONDON (AP) — The recession that’s gripped the eurozone since late 2011 is likely over. On Wednesday official figures are expected to show that economic growth among the 17 countries that use the euro inched up 0.2 percent in the April-June quarter compared with the previous quarter. The increase is slight. But it would end six straight quarters of a debilitating recession — the longest to afflict the single-currency bloc since its creation in 1999. And it would represent an encouraging sign for other economies, including the United States, the world’s largest, because the eurozone is the world’s biggest trading bloc. The eurozone’s recession held back growth in the United States, Japan and elsewhere as European consumers and businesses spent less on goods from those nations. “Concerns about the eurozone were causing a lot of companies to put investment on hold,” said David Owen, chief European economist at Jefferies International. The eurozone’s recession was a byproduct of the debt crisis that engulfed the currency union in 2010. The crisis forced debt-laden governments to impose painful cuts, spooked investors and raised doubts about the viability of the eurozone. Shrunken government spending and higher taxes devastated living standards in much of the eurozone, slowed economies and drove the bloc’s unemployment rate to a record 12.1 percent. The austerity programs embraced by the most troubled eurozone countries contrast with more expansionary efforts in the
United States. The Federal Reserve has also been more active than the European Central Bank in helping the economy. It drove borrowing rates to record lows once the financial crisis erupted in 2008. Ultra-low U.S. rates helped boost stock prices and home sales. U.S. unemployment has dropped to 7.4 percent from 10 percent in late 2009 despite a subpar economic recovery. In recent months, the picture has brightened in Europe as well as governments have shifted their focus away from debt reduction. Industrial production is rising. Consumer spending has stabilized. Exports have increased as key trade partners, including the United States and Japan, strengthen. Confidence has also recovered as stock and bond markets have rallied. That’s partly due to the European Central Bank’s pledge a year ago to do “whatever it takes” to save the currency union and its decision to cut its main interest rate to a record low of 0.5 percent. In Spain and Italy, for example, government borrowing rates have sunk in the past year, a sign of investor confidence. Analysts expect Wednesday’s figures to show improvement in both countries, though both are likely to have remained in recession. Investors have bid up stock prices in key eurozone countries this year. Stock indexes in two major economies — France and Spain — have reached 52-week highs. France’s CAC 40 stock index has jumped 12 percent this year and Spain’s IBEX 7 percent. Germany’s DAX index is up nearly 10 percent this year and Italy’s FTSE MIB nearly 7 percent.
CAIRO (AP) — Instead of rushing for the exits, Islamist supporters of Egypt’s ousted president are replacing tents with wooden huts in their sprawling Cairo encampment. Barbershops have sprung up and many tents now have satellite dishes. There’s little sign of alarm over the potential for violence if security forces move to clear this ground zero of resistance to the coup six weeks ago. On Tuesday, solar power panels were added to the encampment’s several generators in case authorities cut off power. The post-coup government has repeatedly warned that the sit-ins outside the Rabaah al-Adawiya mosque and a smaller one on the other side of the city cannot stay. They portray them as a threat to national security and launch pads for terrorism. The protesters say their vigils are peaceful and will end only when Mohammed Morsi is reinstated as president. As the faceoff has dragged on, participants in the larger of the two vigils have had time to weave a narrative about their cause immersed in religious fervor, revolutionary
rhetoric and martyrdom. Thrown into the mix is the evolution of the protest camp into a sort of autonomous entity with its own institutions and social order. Many protesters frame the standoff as pitting Islam’s true followers against enemies of the faith or between revolutionaries and forces of darkness determined to rob Egyptians of their freedom. “We are here standing up to a world of infidels that refuses to follow Islam,” shouted a speaker on the sit-in’s main stage one recent evening. “Victory may come late because society is not equipped to accommodate righteousness, goodness and justice represented by the nation of the faithful,” declares a sign outside a tent that housed a group of men discussing Shariah Islamic laws. “The people here are on the right side of history,” said Gehad el-Haddad, a spokesman for Morsi’s Muslim Brotherhood. “We are not going to let go of the revolution. We are here for as long as it is needed. It is all
up to the will of the people.” But other facts about this crisis go unaddressed. Little is said about the millions of Egyptians who took to the streets on June 30 to call on Morsi to step down, and even less about the former president’s widely perceived failure to effectively tackle any of Egypt’s many problems, from a woeful economy and high unemployment to the shortages of staple goods and power cuts. Also, in portraying the encampment as representing all Egyptians, the protesters say little about the Muslim Brotherhood being the vigil’s chief organizer, and, judging by the proliferation of men in beards and women in Islamic dress, almost all the protesters are Islamists. The sit-ins began as a show of support for Morsi against mass protests demanding that he step down. After military chief Gen. Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi ousted him on July 3 after just one year in office, the protesters’ chief demand became the reinstatement of Egypt’s first freely elected president, with 52 percent of the vote.

Freeloading daddy refuses to hit the road DEAR ABBY: My 22-year-old daughter and her two young children live with me. She doesn’t work, which is fine. I don’t mind supporting her because I’d rather have the kids see their mom. I spent most of my life as a single mom, working long hours and not seeing my kids. My work has finally paid off, and I’m at a point where, while not rich, I can support my daughter and grandbabies. The problem is the baby daddy. He has a history of drug abuse, theft and jail time. He works only part-time jobs, which he loses monthly. He gives my daughter nothing. I don’t want to support him, but he has moved in and won’t leave my house. I have told him to go, that he’s welcome to visit the kids, but he ignores me. It’s like talking to a wall. He won’t even acknowledge that I told him to leave. He acts like he’s king of the castle when it’s my home! I can’t take it anymore. I pay all the

a while, you may need a lawyer to get him out. According to Los Angeles attorney Lee Dresie: “You can get rid of the freeloader by giving him a 30-day ‘notice to leave’ in writing. It should say, ‘You have 30 days to leave my home. If you don’t, I will bring an action to evict you.’ If he still refuses to go, consult an attorney who specializes in eviction law.” This is Abby again: Be sure you have a witness present when the notice is given so Baby Daddy can’t deny receiving it. Your son could be that witness, and yes, he should be asked to lead the discussion on how to resolve this situation. It is also troubling that the daughter for whom you provide food and shelter is ignoring you. You’re treated this way because you don’t assert yourself. Please do it before Baby Daddy impregnates her again and you have four people to support.

Almanac •
DEAR DOCTOR K: My brother and I are planning a long bike trip this summer. I’m worried about the heat. What can I do to prevent heat stroke? DEAR READER: Normally, the human body does a good job of regulating its temperature. As you’d expect, your body tends to heat up more easily when it is surrounded by hot air. It also heats up during exercise, since hard-working muscles generate heat. When you exercise in hot weather, your body is particularly challenged to get rid of excess heat so that it can maintain a normal body temperature. A part of our brain is constantly monitoring how hot we are. When our body temperature starts to rise above normal, the brain sends signals that cause the blood vessels near our skin to open wide, which in turn
bills. I told my daughter, and she ignores me as well. My oldest son has offered to talk to them for me. I don’t want to lose my grandbabies. They are my purpose in life. Please help. — FURIOUS IN PENNSYLDEAR VANIA ABBY DEAR FURIOUS: Part of your Jeanne Phillips problem may be the degree to which you enable your daughter. You won’t be around forever. She needs to learn to be independent so she can support herself and those children. Clearly, Baby Daddy isn’t man enough to be of any assistance. If he has lived with you for
in wet sheets. If you have ice packs, place them at the person’s neck, groin and armpits to accelerate cooling. During your bike trip, do the following to help you stay cool and avoid heat illness: • Drink lots of water throughout the day. • Stay indoors in an air-conditioned area whenever you feel too warm. • Wear lightweight, light-colored clothing. • Avoid strenuous activity in the hottest part of the day (between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.). If you must participate, take frequent breaks. • Limit the time you wear a helmet by taking it off between activities. • Drink less caffeine and alcohol, which can contribute to dehydration. DR. KOMAROFF is a physician and professor at Harvard Medical School. His website is AskDoctorK.com.

Study: Half who now buy own health plan to get aid WASHINGTON (AP) — About half the people who now buy their own health insurance— and potentially would face higher premiums next year under President Barack Obama’s health care law— would qualify for federal tax credits to offset rate shock, according to a new private study. Many other people, however, earn too much money to be eligible for help, and could end up paying more. The estimate, being released Wednesday by the nonpartisan Kaiser Family Foundation, tries to answer one of the biggest remaining questions about the impact of Obama’s law on American families: Will
consumers wince — or even balk — when they see the premiums for the new plans? The study found that 48 percent of families currently buying their own coverage would be eligible for tax credits next year, averaging $5,548 per family, or 66 percent of the average cost of a benchmark “silver” policy offered through new state insurance markets. “About half of the people won’t be paying the sticker price,” said Gary Claxton, director of the health care marketplace project at Kaiser, an information clearinghouse on the health care system. “The people who get help will get quite a lot of help.”
“Many, but certainly not all, of the people who don’t get tax credits will pay more,” he said. “How much more will be a function of a lot of different things.” For example, some people who don’t qualify for tax credits may get jobs that offer coverage, added Claxton, a co-author of the study. And the bottom line on premiums may not be clear until sometime this fall, after the Health and Human Services Department releases rates for more than 30 states where the federal government is taking the lead setting up new insurance markets for individuals and small businesses. People can enroll starting
Oct. 1, and coverage becomes effective Jan. 1. Most people currently covered by employer plans are not affected. The law is likely to increase the sticker price for individually purchased coverage next year for several reasons: • Insurers will have to cover people with pre-existing medical conditions, whose needs are costlier to provide for. • Policies must provide certain standard benefits, including prescription drugs, mental health and substance abuse treatment and rehabilitative services. • Policyholders’ annual out-of-pocket costs will be capped.
So far, premiums reported by a number of individual states have been coming in lower than initially projected by the Congressional Budget Office. But they are higher — according to industry and consultants — than what people now typically pay for individual plans, which tend to be bare-bones coverage. However, the law also will pump in billions of dollars in federal tax credits to help the uninsured pay premiums — and ease cost increases for many who are currently buying the skimpy individual policies. The money will go directly to the insurance plan, and policyholders will pay the
difference — a discounted sticker price, in effect. The tax credits, available on a sliding scale based on family income, will be offered to people who don’t have access to affordable coverage through their jobs and buy policies through the new state markets. Those making between 100-400 percent of the federal poverty level — between $11,500 and $46,000 for an individual and $23,550 and $94,200 for a family of four — are eligible for some level of help. Families on the low end of the scale will pay 2 percent of their income for a benchmark plan, while those on the upper end will pay 9.5 percent.
