Drug deal brings 6-year sentence GOOD MORNING
Inside today
BY BOB BRALEY bbraley@kpcmedia.com
ALBION — A Kendallville man was sentenced Friday in Noble Circuit Court to serve six years in prison for dealing a narcotic drug. Cody C. Langley, 24, was convicted of dealing a Schedule II controlled substance, a Class B felony. Court records said Langley dealt oxycodone in the 500 block of South Main Street, Kendallville, on Sept. 11, 2012. Langley said he had received something legal from someone for free and was asked to deliver the oxycodone and make the payment. He said the money all went to the supplier. “I wasn’t profiting off this,” he said.
Defense attorney Richard Thonert said Langley isn’t as easily influenced now as he was at the time of the offense. The defendant also has a good job, he said. Thonert asked for a lengthy term of probation for Langley. The safeguard of probation would be, if Langley violates it, he’s going to jail, Thonert said. He added that a prison sentence would undercut the progress Langley has made. Noble County Prosecuting Attorney Steven Clouse said Langley came to the court with a troubling history of juvenile offenses from before he moved to Indiana. Also, Langley was selling an opiate, Clouse said. Illegal sales of prescription opiates are a major
problem in the region. Langley also was selling the drug with no interest in using it himself, Clouse said. “We don’t have a person who’s fueling an addiction,” he said. Clouse asked that Langley be sentenced to 10 years in prison, with eight to be served and two suspended and on probation. Circuit Judge G. David Laur said Langley was an admitted drug dealer. “I understand that somebody asked you to get the drugs. What I don’t understand is that you knew where to get them and you did go get them,” Laur said. Laur said probation and Community Corrections were not viable sentencing options for SEE DEAL, PAGE A8

1950s. He thought about taking his car to a professional painter, but then heard about the Impact Institute’s auto body and repair program. “A friend of mine’s grandson was taking a class and told me about it,” he said. Cearbaugh discussed his car’s needs with the instructors and decided to trust the students with his hot rod. “I brought it over part by part after we had restored them, and the kids went to work,” said Cearbaugh. Mariana Salazaar, a 2013 East Noble graduate, led the student team that prepped and painted the
GENEVA (AP) — The top diplomats from the United States and Russia raised hopes Friday for reviving broad talks to end the long and deadly Syrian civil war, even as they struggled to deal with the most notorious part — the use of chemical weapons on civilians. The path to a U.N. resolution on securing those weapons seemed at least somewhat clearer, with the U.S. indicating it could accept an enforcement measure that didn’t threaten military retribution. U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, leading talks in Geneva to defuse the crisis, both made clear that any prospects for restarting broad peace negotiations depended on first settling the standoff over the chemical weapons. They were to meet again Saturday. The U.S. has been seeking a U.N. Security Council resolution to solidify the turnover that Syrian President Bashar Assad has promised, including consequences if he doesn’t follow through. Addressing a difficult sticking point, administration officials said Friday that President Barack Obama was open to a resolution that did not include military force as a punishment, given that Russia would be all but certain to veto any measure including such a penalty. Even without a military trigger included in a U.N. resolution, the
KENDALLVILLE — “I’m thrilled. They did a beautiful job.” Mike Cearbaugh of Orland couldn’t stop smiling while looking over his canary yellow 1930 Ford Model A hot rod parked in the Impact Institute Auto Body and Repair Shop on East Dowling Street this week. He brought it back to show it again to the Impact Institute’s Auto Body and Repair program students, who worked on it last year, and the new students in the course. He wanted to thank everyone again. Instructor Jose Gallo praised his
students for their prep work and paint job on the historic car. “They worked very hard on this. Some came in on Saturdays. I’m proud of them,” Gallo said. Cearbaugh, who describes himself as a car buff, acquired the Model A in 1991 and worked on restoring it with his neighbor, Al Henderson off and on in recent years. He’s also working on a 1953 Ford flatbed truck and a 1952 Ford pickup truck. “All model A’s coming off the Ford assembly line in those days were black,” he said. Cearbaugh wanted a more flashy hot-rod look with painted flames that was popular in the
Taliban attack on U.S. Consulate kills 4 Afghans KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — The Taliban attacked a U.S. Consulate in western Afghanistan with car bombs and guns on Friday, killing at least four Afghans but failing to enter the compound or hurt any Americans. The attack in the city of Herat underscored concerns about an insurgency that shows no signs of letting up as U.S.-led troops reduce their presence ahead of a full withdrawal next year. Within hours of the assault, the U.S. temporarily evacuated many of its consular personnel to the embassy in Kabul, 650 kilometers
(400 miles) to the east. Herat lies near Afghanistan’s border with Iran and is considered one of the safer cities in the country, with a strong Iranian influence. Friday’s attack highlighted the Taliban’s reach: The militants once concentrated their activities in the east and the south, but in recent years have demonstrated an ability to strike with more frequency in the once-peaceful north and west. In a phone call, Taliban spokesman Qari Yousef Ahmadi took responsibility for the assault. An interpreter and three
members of the Afghan security forces were killed, said U.S. State Department deputy spokeswoman Marie Harf. Seven militants, including two drivers of explosives-laden vehicles, also died, according to Gen. Rahmatullah Safi, Herat province’s chief of police. At least 17 people were wounded, said Herat hospital official Sayednaim Alemi. The attack began about 6 a.m. when militants in an SUV and a van set off their explosives while others on foot fired on Afghan security forces guarding the

Consulate, Safi said. He said the militants were not able to breach the compound, where Americans live and work. Harf said the attackers fired rocket propelled grenades and that the compound’s front gate was extensively damaged in one of the bombings. Footage broadcast on Afghanistan’s Tolo television network showed Afghan police dragging away a badly bloodied man from the scene. Rubble and twisted pieces of metal lay strewn in a seemingly wide area near the consulate.

Mother charged with neglect in baby’s death SALEM (AP) — A 23-year-old southeastern Indiana woman has been charged with neglect of a dependent in the death of her -8-month-old son. State police say Casey Crain of Salem, about 40 miles northwest of Louisville, Ky., was arrested Friday. She was being held in the Washington County Jail. Court records did not indicate whether she has hired an attorney. Police say her son,
Leelan Crain, died Sunday. Preliminary autopsy results indicate the cause of death was blunt force trauma to the head. Crain’s boyfriend, 24-year-old Jamie J. Lykins of Salem, was charged earlier with battery causing death and neglect of a dependent. Innocent pleas were entered on his behalf when he appeared in court on Wednesday. Police say Crain told them she found her son unresponsive while taking a nap.

KENDALLVILLE — “Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds.” The U.S. Post Office has no official motto, but this inscription on the General Post Office in New York City, taken from the works of ancient Greek historian Herodotus, has become the unofficial creed of the post office mail carriers. Kendallville mail carrier Paul “Chip” Meyer, 58, knows the unofficial motto well. He has lived it for more than 37 years. “There have been a few times when the mail has not gotten through like the blizzard in 1978 and the tornado in 1992, but it’s mostly true,” he said Thursday at the Kendallville post office. Meyer is retiring. His final day delivering the mail is today. He will clock in this morning about 7:30 as usual, check his mail delivery truck’s lights, brakes and steering as usual, sort his load of mail for his route on the north side of the city as usual, and head out in his post office truck to deliver mail to 844 mailboxes. “I’ve probably been on every porch in town,” he said.

2 area liquor licenses available in annual permit auction FROM STAFF REPORTS
INDIANAPOLIS — Two area licenses will be up for bid when the Indiana Alcohol and Tobacco Commission holds its annual alcoholic-beverage permit auction Nov. 1. The permit auction, which is required by Indiana law, will be held at the Indiana Government Center South, Conference Center Room B, 302 W. Washington St., Indianapolis, at 10 a.m. Bidder check-in begins at 9 a.m. This year, the ATC will auction 38 permits — down from 60 permits last year — for various communities around the state.
In this area, permits available are a beer, wine and liquor permit in Corunna and a beer dealer permit for a grocery in Rome City. Prospective bidders must complete a pre-qualification packet and post $500 to $1,000 pre-bid security, depending on the type of permit sought. A successful bid at the auction merely allows the bidder to apply for the appropriate permit. Successful bidders still must go through the normal application process. It includes a hearing before a local alcoholic beverage board in the county in which the permit would be located.
At this public hearing, members of the local community may testify for or against the permit’s issuance. After the local board makes a recommendation to approve or disapprove the permit’s issuance, the ATC then reviews the application and the local board’s recommendation and decides whether the applicant should be issued the permit. A complete list of available permits is available at in.gov/atc. Pre-bid qualification packets must be received by the ATC on or before close of business Oct. 20. For more information, visit in.gov/atc.
Regional Roundup • Catholic bishop recovering from collarbone surgery FORT WAYNE (AP) — The Roman Catholic bishop for much of northern Indiana is recovering after surgery to repair a broken collarbone. A spokesman for Fort Wayne-South Bend Bishop Kevin Rhoades said he was injured in a fall Sunday night while he was on his way to Washington, D.C., for meetings with the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops. Diocesan spokesman Sean McBride said Rhoades returned to Fort Wayne on Wednesday and underwent surgery Thursday at a Fort Wayne hospital. McBride said the bishop’s surgery was successful and that he plans to keep his upcoming schedule.

Goshen mayor nixes deputy
Man fatally shot outside club
GOSHEN — Goshen Mayor Allan Kauffman has vetoed an the ordinance establishing an unpaid deputy mayor position for the city, according to news reports. The Goshen News reports the City Council had approved the measure last Tuesday, and could override the mayor’s veto if five of seven council members voted to do so. “While it is a position I asked to have established, and I still believe there are valid reasons to have one, there are incongruities that don’t register well with me,” Kauffman said.
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Police say a 33-yearold Indianapolis man was fatally shot outside a city nightclub after he was denied entrance, started a fight and stabbed two people in the parking lot. Police have identified the deceased man as Andrew Sobers. The attack happened just before 3 a.m. Friday at the Black Diamond nightclub near the Lafayette Square shopping mall on the city’s northwest side. Officer Christopher Wilburn says Sobers became angry and argued with a group of men in the parking lot, pulling out a knife and stabbing two men. Another person then shot the attacker several times. Wilburn says officers have the shooter in custody and the two stabbed men were taken to a hospital in stable condition.

but he remembers when mail carriers in Kendallville walked their routes carrying leather pouches over their shoulders or pushing carts. “People have always been friendly on my routes. I will miss the little kids who walked with me and called to me,” he said.

Meyer will be taking it easy enjoying his three grandchildren and Purdue sports.

Hospital ends plan for autism center FORT WAYNE (AP) — A northeastern Indiana hospital announced it will not be able to proceed with its plan to open an autism treatment center to serve children ages 2 to 18. An area newspaper reports Parkview Huntington Hospital announced Friday that it can’t move ahead with the plan it announced in October because of delays in state review and approval of the project layout and because of a lack of partnerships with behavioral therapists. Parkview Huntington says plans for the facility were submitted to the Indiana State Department of Health for review and approval, but it not received a response. The center was to offer therapeutic and rehabilitation services, and would have provided support-group meetings for families of autistic children,

NEW YORK (AP) — Stocks rose broadly Friday, giving the Dow Jones industrial average its best week since January. The market got a lift from two economic reports, one showing that inflation remained tame in August and the other showing that Americans spent more at stores last month. The Dow rose 75.42 points, or 0.5 percent, to 15,376.06. The index closed up three percent for the week, its best five-day performance since the week ending Jan. 4. Intel led the Dow higher. Analysts at Jefferies & Co. said Intel may be able to increase its sales with power-efficient chips. Intel rose 81 cents, or 3.6 percent, to $23.44. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index rose 4.57 points, or 0.3 percent, to 1,687.99. The Nasdaq composite index rose 6.22 points, or 0.2 percent, to 3,722.18. Traders had a few economic reports to work through. Americans increased their spending modestly in August, roughly
0.2 percent, the Commerce Department reported, however that was half of what economists expected. The sales report was mixed. Shoppers spent more on cars, electronics and furniture, but they didn’t buy much else. Last month, several retail chains including Nordstrom, Macy’s and Wal-Mart cut their profit forecasts for the year. The government also reported that wholesale prices rose 0.3 percent last month. Over the past year, prices have only gained 1.4 percent, a sign that inflation has remains modest. One thing driving wholesale prices higher was energy, which spiked as tensions with Syria and the U.S. escalated. Trading was light as Wall Street headed into the weekend and the Jewish holiday of Yom Kippur. Investors were looking ahead to the Federal Reserve’s policy meeting on Sept. 17-18, when the central bank is expected to decide the future of its bond-buying program.
Teachers strike in Mexico City MEXICO CITY (AP) — Thousands of striking teachers seized control of the historic heart of Mexico City on Friday, blockading the Zocalo plaza armed with metal pipes and wooden clubs as riot police flooded the area for what could be an ugly confrontation culminating weeks of protests against an education reform. The teachers used steel grates and plastic traffic dividers to block the streets leading into the Zocalo, home to the Metropolitan Cathedral, Templo Mayor and National Palace, some of the city’s best-known tourist attractions. Hundreds of Mexico City and federal riot police massed on the other sides of the barriers. Mexico’s government has promised that Independence Day celebrations, including the traditional presidential shout of independence from a balcony overlooking the square, will take place there Sunday and Monday. The teachers, many veterans of battles with police in the
poor southern states where they live, are promising not to move from the square where they have camped out for weeks, launching a string of disruptive marches around the city. Manuel Mondragon, the head of the federal police, warned on national television that police would move in at 4 p.m. local time. One of the heads of the teachers’ union organizing the protests said organizers were still deciding what to do, but protesters on the street said they were preparing for battle. The teachers have disrupted the center of one of the world’s largest cities at least 15 times over the last two months decrying a plan that aims to break union control of Mexico’s dysfunctional education system. President Enrique Pena Nieto dashed the teachers’ hopes of blocking the overhaul when he signed the new system into law Tuesday. On Wednesday, the protests began turning violent.
Deaths & Funerals • Ellen Lash KENDALLVILLE — Ellen Lash, 100, of Kendallville, died at the home of her son in LaPorte on Thursday, September 12, 2013.

Tractors changed farms, and America’s way of life Growing up, my dad and grandfather almost always had draft horses or mules on their farms. Since I left home, my mom and dad have gotten back into draft horses a lot more. Dad uses them for wagon rides and doing chores around the farm, from hauling hay out to ELYSIA animals to logging RODGERS trees out of the woods. Even though we do have a tractor, it is always fun watching how farming was done “in the old days.” The use of horses is actually making a bit of a comeback lately, as people are looking at slowing things down. While horses are wonderful work animals, sometimes you just need the power from a tractor. David Mas Masumoto, writer of “Special to The Bee,” wrote the following article
•
about the history of the tractor: Early in the 1900s, Henry Ford first introduced the Fordson, a modern tractor with a smaller gas-powered engine. The Model F was farmer-friendly, if the average farmer was willing to tolerate the unbearable engine heat and the occasional motor catching on fire. Driven by efficiency, gradually the Fordson was improved. It still required new inputs of gas and oil and used resources of steel and later rubber, but it could outperform the poor old horse. Imagine millions of farmers, shaking their heads and saying, “Ain’t gonna work.” They then returned to their farm with Jake or Betty, their loyal and steady team of horses or mules. They could not foresee the changes coming. They didn’t understand Ford’s arrogant yet visionary comment: Ask farmers what they want and they would have said a faster horse. The tractor triggered a massive change in farm size. In 1900, farmers typically
worked about 100 acres; by 1960 it was 300 acres (and today it’s over 400 acres). Some claim the push for productivity forced farmers to keep expanding in a never-ending race. Productivity in agriculture has resulted in cheaper and cheaper food, the efficiencies brought by the tractor as well as other innovations and equipment, made food more available than ever before. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the percent of our annual income spent on food has continually plummeted. In 1900, when horses ruled our farmlands, Americans spent 43 percent of their income on food. By 1950, it had dropped to 30 percent, and today it’s less than 9 percent. Tractors rule, horses drool. American farms changed in another significant way: human labor was no longer needed and the farm population dramatically shifted. In 1900, 41 percent of America claimed to be farmers and 60 percent of Americans lived in rural areas. By 1960 (as
tractors dominated agriculture), the number of farmers had collapsed to only 8 percent, and rural communities shrank to 30 percent. Today, less than 2 percent acknowledge they’re farmers, and rural America is about one-fifth of the population. But were millions of workers displaced or freed? Other than periods of the Great Depression and images from “The Grapes of Wrath,” this migration off the farm did not necessarily include economic refugees who were poor, out of work, and fleeing the terror of the tractors that pushed humans off the land. For many, it was an escape from the hard physical work of farming. Industrial America grew at precisely the same moment in our nation’s history, absorbing this labor force. Commerce benefitted from a new set of skilled hands, launching the rise of the urban middle class. The tractor, far from being a mechanical demon, was seen as a savior: freeing millions from the torture of farm labor and isolated rural life.
What price are we paying for cheap food? Major medical problems today are associated with the current dietary opportunity of inexpensive processed food that Americans stuff themselves with. Indirectly, can obesity and diabetes somehow be connected with the tractor and the rise of mass-produced commodities in search of a mouth to feed? Or is this all a moot point, long after the horse left the barn? And are bigger farms necessarily always better? Some will claim that environmental bill has yet to be paid by large-scale agriculture. In our valley, some communities cannot drink water from their wells, as excess nitrates, often from agriculture, have polluted groundwater supplies. Ironically, the loss of people on the farm also meant a loss of voters supporting agricultural policy. We forget that tractors also displaced rural political clout. Politically, the farm vote really doesn’t count anymore.
In the last election, the failure of controversial Proposition 37 – about labeling GMOs (generically modified organisms) – was defeated by the urban vote. More and more, policy decisions for agriculture are determined by “city folks.” It’s not about politics, it’s geography. I have a number of tractors on our farm. They don’t require daily feeding and can work for hours and hours, pulling with ease heavy equipment through my fields. Daily, my body thanks the arrival of tractors. But they aren’t alive, and I find little comfort in their cold metal and the smell of diesel. So when I look at the horse tack hanging in my old barn, I also see more than the rise of tractor power. I can’t help but see the consequences that innovation brings. ELYSIA RODGERS is the agriculture and natural resources director for the Purdue University Cooperative Extension Service in DeKalb County.

Soybean outlook rises after USDA downgrades crop CHICAGO —Goldman Sachs Group Inc. raised its outlook for U.S. soybean prices in the next three and six months after a government report yesterday showed U.S. production will be reduced due to dry weather. Soybeans may be $12.50 a bushel in three months and $11.50 in six months, below current price levels while above the bank’s previous outlook of $10.50 a bushel, Goldman analysts including Damien Courvalin wrote in an e-mailed report today. The U.S. Department of Agriculture lowered its forecast for the U.S. harvest to 3.149 billion bushels yesterday, its second cut in as many months and 3.3 percent less than expected in August. “Uncertainty over the size of the U.S. corn and especially soybean crops remain unusually high for this time of year given the volatility and extremes in planting and growing weather across the Midwest,” Courvalin wrote. The USDA may lower its outlook for U.S. yields again in its October report, he said. Soybeans for November delivery rallied 2.8 percent Thursday on the Chicago Board of Trade, before falling as much as 0.7 percent Friday to $13.8675 a bushel. The most-active contract has jumped 20 percent since reaching a 19-month low in August as heat and dry weather intensified in U.S. growing areas.

Purdue sees lower grain prices ahead BY DAVE KURTZ dkurtz@kpcnews.net
AUBURN — After three years of record income, U.S. farmers can expect more moderate profits in 2014, a Purdue expert said Friday. Corinne Alexander. an agricultural economist, spoke to local farmers by Internet from the Purdue campus. A half-dozen farmers attended at the Extension office in downtown Auburn. Lower grain prices will be a leading cause of reduced farm income, Alexander said. After a drought pushed corn prices to $6.90 per bushel last year, Purdue is predicting a range of $4.40 to $5.20 per bushel for this year’s crop — the lowest prices since 2009-2010. “We have to rebuild usage, stimulate the users to use a lot more corn, because there’s a lot more corn available,” Alexander said. However, she said, “There’s still a lot of question marks” about the corn crop. It looked “fantastic” in early August, but hot, dry weather has set
in since then. Farmers at the seminar agreed that lack of rain has hurt the quality of crops — especially soybeans. One said his fields have not felt a good rain since the first week of July. This week’s rain came too late to be of much benefit, the farmers added. Alexander’s advice said farmers could expect to gain 45 cents per bushel by storing their corn crop for sale next July. “As I go around the state of Indiana, I see a lot of new grain bins that can be filled … to capture those storage returns,” she said. Purdue is forecasting an average soybean yield of 41.2 bushels per acre, which is being revised downward because major soybeangrowing areas are experiencing drought. U.S. soybean production is forecast at 3.15 billion bushels, the fourth-largest crop on record, up from 3 billion last year. Purdue is predicting a soybean price of $12.50 per bushel, equal to two years
ago, but down from $14.40 last year. However, the price still could reach the $13.50 to $14 range. “The hot, dry weather this August really pushed soybean prices higher,” Alexander said. She advised selling soybeans before or at harvest, or storing only 30-120 days, to avoid falling prices due to a large South American crop. She said Brazil could surpass U.S. soybean production for the first time in 2014. Alexander said the cost of planting grain should be lower next year. She predicted it will cost $422 per acre to plant corn, down 9 percent, chiefly because fertilizer prices will drop by 22 percent. The forecast predicts $225 per acre to plant soybeans, down from $239 last year. After three years with very high feed costs, it will be time for livestock producers to take advantage of lower feed prices, Alexander said. All categories of livestock production are expected to increase except beef, which
is being hampered by drought in the west. “The current size of the U.S. cattle herd is back to a level we have not seen since 1952,” Alexander said. Purdue is expecting hog prices to stay profitable, possibly declining to break-even by late 2014. The soaring price of average Indiana farm land set a record at nearly $7,500 per acre this year, Alexander reported. It has risen from $4,240 in 2008 and $5,488 in 2011. With lower crop prices, Purdue expects values to start leveling or declining. “In general, I hear a lot of people pessimistic about farmland values,” she said. Average Indiana land rental also set a new record of $229 per acre this year. Alexander said she expects little change for 2014, but an adjustment to new realities in 2015-2016. One farmer at the session said he regularly attends the annual Purdue outlook meetings, “and they have been pretty close to being right.”

High Risk Factors on Farms The following factors may increase risk of injuryor illness for farm workers: • Age – Injury rates are highest among children age 15 and under and adults over 65. • Equipment and Machinery – Most farm accidents and fatalities involve machinery. Proper machine guarding and doing equipment maintenance according to manufacturers’ recommendations can help prevent accidents. • Protective Equipment – Using protective equipment, such as seat belts on tractors, and personal protective equipment (such as safety gloves, coveralls, boots, hats,
aprons, goggles, face shields) could significantly reduce farming injuries. • Medical Care – Hospitals and emergency medical care are typically not readily accessible in rural areas near farms.
How You Can Improve Farm Safety You can start by increasing your awareness of farm-

AFGHANS: American Consulate personnel ‘safe and accounted for’ TALKS: Obama insists removal of weapons must be ‘enforceable’ American security personnel were among those FROM PAGE A1
responding to the attack, Harf said. Robert Hilton, a spokesman for the U.S. Embassy in Kabul, said “all consulate personnel are safe and accounted for.� Most of the staff were temporarily relocated to the capital, but some essential personnel stayed in Herat, he said. U.S. and other foreign missions are attractive targets for militants in Afghanistan, but their high walls and strict security also make them difficult to penetrate. The militants also often carry out complex attacks that include suicide car bombers and fighters on foot. Last month, a botched bombing against the Indian Consulate in the Afghan city of Jalalabad killed nine people, including six children. No Indian officials were hurt. And two years ago to the day, insurgents fired rocket-propelled grenades and assault rifles at the U.S. Embassy, NATO offices and

U.S.-led troops investigate the site of a suicide car bombing and a gunfight near
other buildings in Kabul. Also Friday morning, a suicide truck bombing wounded seven Afghans in eastern Paktika province’s Sar Hawza district, said Mokhlis Afghan, a spokesman for the provincial governor. Paktika province

lies along the border with Pakistan, and militants affiliated with the Taliban and al-Qaida are active in the region. Friday’s attacks came in the wake of nationwide celebrations after the Afghan soccer team won
the South Asian Football Federation Championship on Wednesday. The win produced a rare moment of national unity in this ethnically divided country, and euphoric Afghans poured into the streets to express their joy over the victory.
Tropical storm pounding Mexico VERACRUZ, Mexico (AP) — Heavy rains lashed Mexico’s Gulf Coast Friday as Tropical Storm Ingrid formed over water about 60 miles away, threatening more damage in a state where landslides and flooding have killed dozens of people in recent weeks. At least three major rivers in the eastern state of Veracruz were flooding or close to overflowing their banks and hundreds of people were evacuating low-lying areas, officials said. A bridge collapsed
near the northern city of Misantla, cutting off the area from the state capital. Thirteen people died when a landslide buried their homes in heavy rains spawned by Tropical Depression Fernand on Monday. State officials imposed an orange alert, the highest possible, in parts of southern Veracruz. The storm’s maximum sustained winds early Friday were near 45 mph (75 kph), according to the U.S. National Hurricane Center. It was nearly stationary,
entered about 40 miles (65 kilometers) east-northeast of the port city of Veracruz, but forecasters said it was likely to advance north and curve into the coast near Tampico during Mexico’s long Independence Day weekend. A tropical storm warning was in effect for Mexico’s coast from Coatzacoalcos to Cabo Rojo and the system and it was expected to dump 10 to 15 inches (25 to 40 centimeters) of rain over a large part of eastern Mexico with 25 inches (65 centime-
Activists pressing Obama for action on immigration WASHINGTON (AP) — With immigration legislation stalled in Congress, advocates are intensifying pressure on the Obama administration to act unilaterally to stop deportations or grant legal status to some of the 11 million people now living in the U.S. illegally. Activists are stepping up acts of civil disobedience like one last month in Phoenix, where they blocked a bus full of immigrant detainees. And labor leaders plan to press the issue with a top White House official in an upcoming meeting. Many advocates continue to hold out hope for a legislative solution even as some shift their focus to the White House. “If Congress doesn’t move, the president has a duty to act,� said Ana Avendano, director of immigration and community
action at the AFL-CIO. “Just because the Republicans have buried their heads in the sand doesn’t mean that immigrant communities aren’t feeling the sting of constant deportations.� The possibility of executive action is inflaming Republican suspicions. Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., and others warn that President Barack Obama will be tempted to act on his own to legalize some or all of the people now living in the country illegally. “I think that’s actually what Obama wants to do. I think he wants Congress not to pass something so he can do it on his own and he can take credit for it,� Rep. Raul Labrador, R-Idaho, said in an interview. “He needs to be very careful, though, because he continues to flout the law, and he continues to do things that are beyond his authority.
And at some point, Congress is going to have enough.� The administration acted on its own a year ago to change policy and suspend deportations of some immigrants brought illegally to the country as children. About 400,000 of them have benefited so far. White House officials refuse to publicly entertain any discussion of taking further steps. “The only way to bring 11 million undocumented individuals out of the shadow economy is for Congress to pass common-sense reform with an earned path to citizenship. That’s it. Full stop,� said White House spokesman Bobby Whithorne. When asked in interviews about the high number of deportations under his administration, Obama has sought to put the onus on Congress. “I’m not a king,� he told Telemundo.
ters) in some places. On the other side of the country, Tropical Storm Manuel prompted Mexico’s government to issue warnings for the Pacific coast from Acapulco to Punta San Telmo. Forecasters at the National Hurricane Center in Miami say Manuel had sustained winds Friday afternoon of 40 mph (65 kph) and the center was located about 150 miles (240 kilometers) south-southwest of Zihuatanejo.
officials said Obama would retain the authority to order U.S. air strikes against Syria. At the White House, Obama said any agreement to remove Syria’s chemical weapons stockpile “needs to be verifiable and enforceable.� As for possible U.N. action, State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said, “We are not going to prejudge the outcome of negotiations that are just beginning in New York. The U.S. has been clear that for any effort to be credible it must be verifiable and include consequences for noncompliance.� Senior administration officials also outlined for the first time a timetable for a diplomatic resolution of the issue of the weapons, saying the U.S. will know within a few weeks whether a path is workable. The officials spoke only on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the internal deliberations publicly. U.N. inspectors prepared to turn in their own poison gas report this weekend, sure to be an important basis for any further action. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said he expected “an overwhelming report� that chemical weapons were indeed used on the outskirts of Damascus on Aug. 21. The chief inspector, Ake Sellstrom, told The Associated Press that he would deliver his report to the secretary-general in New York this weekend. In Geneva, meanwhile, Kerry and Lavrov have disclosed little since their meetings began Thursday with Kerry’s dismissal of
Assad’s offer to begin by turning over information, not weapons, starting weeks from now after signing an international convention. A U.S. official said the talks were at a “pivotal point� and would continue Saturday morning. Some progress has been made on how to account for Syria’s chemical weapons inventory, the official said, adding that the U.S. and Russia also had narrowed their differences over what each country believes to be the size of the Syrian stockpiles. Kerry and Lavrov also met with U.N.-Arab League envoy Lakhdar Brahimi about the potential for a new peace conference in the Swiss city. Kerry said he, Lavrov and Brahimi agreed to meet around Sept. 28 on the sidelines of the annual U.N. General Assembly meetings in New York. “We are committed to try to work together, beginning with this initiative on the chemical weapons, in hopes that those efforts could pay off and bring peace and stability to a war-torn part of the world,� he said. Kerry, flanked by Lavrov and Brahimi, told reporters after an hour-long meeting that the chances for a second peace conference in Geneva will require success first with the chemical weapons talks, which he said had been “constructive� so far. “I will say on behalf of the United States that President Obama is deeply committed to a negotiated solution with respect to Syria, and we know that Russia is likewise. We are working hard to find the common ground to be able to make that happen,� Kerry said.

car parts. “The biggest challenges were getting the paint right, and painting inside the engine compartment,� she said. Eastside High School senior Kyle Franz and Hamilton High School senior Trevor Hicks sanded the car parts before primer was applied. “This was the first hot rod we worked on, and we did most of the sanding by hand,� said Hicks. They spent several weeks removing the old, black paint. “I think it looks great,�
said Franz. The students applied three coats of primer and then three coats of the canary yellow paint as Cearbaugh wanted. Working on an all-steel car body was something different for the students used to working on modern vehicles, said Salazaar. “We were aware it was an historic car,� she said. The hot rod won an award at the Kendallville car show, and Cearbaugh plans to enter it in more car shows, but he also drives it a lot. “It’s a fun car to drive around,� he said. The car has red painted
flames coming out of the engine compartment. Impact Institute, formerly called Four County Area Vocational Cooperative with central offices in Kendallville, serves students from 12 school districts in northeastern Indiana. It offers 15 specialized vocational education programs at satellite locations separate from school facilities. High school juniors and seniors accepted into the programs spend half of each school day attending classes at their respective schools and half the day in Impact Institute programs.
DEAL: Judge says jail time appropriate for offense FROM PAGE A1
Langley at this time. “I’m not going to let you walk out of here today. You dealt drugs, and a drug dealer’s not going to walk out of here (without being taken to jail),� Laur said. The judge sentenced Langley to eight years in
prison, with six years to be served and two years suspended and on probation. Under the terms of a plea agreement in the case, Langley’s possible sentence was capped at 10 years. Class B felony offenses carry a sentencing range of six to 20 years in prison
under Indiana law. Two related charges against Langley were dismissed under the plea agreement — dealing a Schedule IV controlled substance, a Class C felony, and dealing marijuana grater than 30 grams, a Class D felony.

Rapper Queen Latifah set to start daytime TV show reports news in Senegal DAKAR, Senegal (AP) — The war in Syria isn’t the easiest topic to break down in a brief newscast. But that’s exactly what Senegalese rapper Makhtar “Xuman” Fall does — and throws it down in rhyme no less. “All eyes are turned to the powder keg of the world; To the Middle East where Syria is sitting on a bomb. Dialogue, discussions and negotiations; To legitimize a war you need a coalition.” Fall raps these lines in French from behind a newscaster’s desk, sporting reading glasses and a blazer with his long dreadlocks tied back behind his head. Next he turns to a “guest commentator,” Senegalese rap icon Didier Awadi who adds a few words of his own: “The bastards are getting organized and they want blood … One more time they want to make us swallow their lies. And even without the proof, they’ll bring out the heavy artillery.” In the span of a program just five minutes long, Fall and his co-host Cheikh “Keyti” Sene tackle everything from the Middle East to local woes like the flooding that disproportionately hits poor suburbs of Senegal’s capital. They even interview people on the street — all of whom can conveniently rap as well. The program “Journal Rappe” is now aired twice a week on a Senegalese television network after it went viral on YouTube earlier this year. In an effort to reach even more fans, Fall raps his portion in French while Sene’s contributions are in the other national language, Wolof. It’s not an identical translation but the two try to offer up rhymes along the same lines. Over the last several years, many rap artists in Senegal were active in anti-government protests.
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Queen Latifah knows a reliable stress reliever to cope with the pressures of launching a daytime show. “I have a drum set in my dressing room and I go in there and play for a few minutes to relax. They can forget about it being quiet around here — I’m going to bang my drums,” said the singer-songwriter and actress, who’s adding the job of host to her resume. With Monday’s debut of the syndicated “The Queen Latifah Show” (check local listings for station, time), she intends to make noise in the competitive realm of daytime TV. “I’m naturally a bit edgier than typical daytime, but I kind of want to push things a little bit further, as far as I can respectfully, within the daytime space,” said Latifah. “I want more out of daytime TV. I want more choices, I want more
heart, more humor.” She also wants more music, befitting someone who broke ground as a female rapper before expanding into other genres. Her wish list is varied and includes Coldplay and Kings of Leon, and she’s already got Alicia Keys and Plain White T’s lead singer Tom Higgenson booked for her first week. Other inaugural guests include John Travolta, Sharon Stone, Jamie Foxx, Jake Gyllenhaal and Lisa Kudrow. Also invited are “regular people who do amazing things” that are inspirational and who deserve to share the stage with celebrities, Latifah said. “As much bad news as we see every day, it’s good to see people out there doing positive things that give you hope. I’m an optimist,” she said. Monday’s show will feature a performance by preteen actress-
singer Willow Smith, with dad Will Smith dropping in Tuesday. If the schedule seems a tad Smith family heavy, it’s with good reason: Latifah and Smith go way back, and he and wife Jada Pinkett Smith are among the producers of Latifah’s new venture. “She’s just fantastic,” Pinkett Smith told reporters in August. “I just feel like every (day), you have the opportunity to kick it with your girlfriend, Queen Latifah.” Latifah, 43, would have liked such a team for her first try as a talk-show host. The program had an abbreviated run from 1999-2001 but pointed her in the right direction for her new effort from Sony Pictures Television. “I learned I really have to be true to myself. … I want to go out there and do something that feels like me every day and is something I’m comfortable with and excited

about,” said Latifah. Oprah Winfrey’s 2011 departure from daytime opened the floodgates for new shows, but Latifah said she was glad to hold off on joining the fray and isn’t presenting herself as a successor: She wants to have Winfrey on as a guest to demonstrate “that I am the current Latifah and she is the current Oprah,” she said, wryly. She’s hopeful fans of her music and her films, including “Chicago” and “The Secret Life of Bees,” will be part of her audience. But they have many choices, whether celebrity-driven talk shows or alternatives including “Dr. Phil” and “Dr. Oz.” “She’s coming on at a time when it’s very competitive, but she brings the name recognition and the support of a major studio to launch her show,” said Bill Carroll, a daytime TV expert for Katz Media.

LOS ALAMOS, N.M. (AP) — At Los Alamos National Laboratory, a seven-year, $213 million upgrade to the security system that protects the lab’s most sensitive nuclear bomb-making facilities doesn’t work. Those same facilities, which sit atop a fault line, remain susceptible to collapse and dangerous radiation releases, despite millions more spent on improvement plans. In Tennessee, the price tag for a new uranium processing facility has grown nearly sevenfold in eight years to upward of $6 billion because of problems that include a redesign to raise the roof. And the estimated cost of an ongoing effort to refurbish 400 of the country’s B61 bombs has grown from $1.5 billion to $10 billion. Virtually every major
project under the National Nuclear Security Administration’s oversight is behind schedule and over budget — the result, watchdogs and government auditors say, of years of lax accountability and nearly automatic annual budget increases for the agency responsible for maintaining the nation’s nuclear stockpile. The NNSA has racked up $16 billion in cost overruns on 10 major projects that are a combined 38 years behind schedule, the U.S. Government Accountability Office reports. Other projects have been cancelled or suspended, despite hundreds of millions of dollars already spent, because they grew too bloated. Advocates say spending increases are necessary to keep the nation’s nuclear arsenal operating and safe, and to continue cutting-

edge research at the nation’s nuclear labs. But critics say the nuclear program — run largely by private contractors and overseen by the NNSA, an arm of the U.S. Energy Department — has turned into a massive jobs program with duplicative functions. “The post-Cold War nuclear warhead complex has become a gigantic self-licking ice cream cone for contractors,� said Greg Mello of the Los Alamos Study Group, a watchdog organization. U.S. Sen. Claire McCaskill, chairwoman of the Senate Homeland Security financial and contracting oversight subcommittee, said a key problem is the Energy Department’s reliance on private contractors to carry out its mission. The DOE has fewer than 16,000 employees.

East Noble running back Brandon Mable runs for a second quarter score during Friday’s Northeast
Knights roll at DeKalb BY AARON ORGAN aorgan@kpcmedia.com
WATERLOO – It was the tenacious defense and effective offense that has been East Noble’s calling card this season, against a DeKalb team just looking for a glimpse of success. The Knights defense held the Barons offense to just 64 yards of offense while its own offense built up 477 yards and tailback Brandon Mable ran for over 200 yards and three touchdowns as East Noble thoroughly handled host DeKalb 50-7 Friday night. East Noble improves to 3-1 (1-1 Northeast Hoosier Conference), while the Barons fall to 0-4 (0-4 NHC). The East Noble tormenting pass rush had Barons sophomore quarterback Harrison Price, in his first start for DeKalb, fleeing for safety most the night. Price was sacked eight

LAGRANGE — Angola provided some resistance against Lakeland in a key early season Northeast Corner Conference football matchup Friday. But the Lakers stayed undefeated by winning their homecoming game 31-0. “That team is not a bad team,” Lakeland coach Keith Thompson said of the Hornets. “They made it a little tougher than it had been. But we played hard and made enough plays. “I thought our defense played very, very, very well. We kept it simple and stayed with our option responsibilities,” he added. “Coach (Jason) Schackow got our defense ready to go. Wyatt (Petty) and Evan (Garretson) had really good games.” Lakeland (4-0, 4-0 NECC) held Angola to just 31 yards of total offense and had five quarterback sacks. The Hornets (2-2,

times in the game, and paid for the keepers he was able to advance beyond the line of scrimmage. The Knights allowed just 5 rushing yards and did not allow a DeKalb first down until 10:56 of the second quarter. “Our defense played pretty solid all game,” said East Noble coach Luke Amstutz. “We hang our hat on our defense. They did a great job. They get after it, they hit, they intimidate a little bit — that’s what they do.” After that defense sacked Price twice on the Barons opening series, Knights quarterback Bryce Wolfe snuck a run 17 yards up the middle for a touchdown to start his team’s scoring. The East Noble defense then sacked Price two plays into the ensuing series before senior Landan Tackett intercepted him and returned
it for a touchdown. Another sack on the Barons’ next series led to a turnover on downs, which the Knights capitalized on through a 5-yard touchdown scamper by Brandon Mable. The senior tailback would score again from 11 yards out on East Noble’s next series on the first play of the second quarter. Amstutz called Mable “the best player on the field,” and his speed and elusiveness was a mismatch. He finished with 213 yards on 14 carries. “Brandon had a heck of a game,” said Amstutz. “He’s the best player on the field, and that showed. He’s dynamic and makes big plays whenever he touches it, and we’ve got to keep finding ways to give him the ball and let him do his thing.”

2-1) lost four of their six fumbles and were not decisive enough in their option game against an attacking Laker defense. The senior ends Petty and Garretson were in the Angola backfield for a large majority of the night. “Their blocking scheme was washing our ends down. Our ends figured it out pretty quick,” Thompson said. Lakeland methodically moved the ball 61 yards on 12 plays on the first drive of the game to score. It was capped by a 5-yard touchdown pass from William Kelly to Hunter Sams 7 minutes, 4 seconds into the contest. Marco Olivares kicked the extra point to put the Lakers up 7-0. The Hornets responded with a nice drive after another Olivares touchback, moving the ball from their 20-yard line to the Lakers’ 29. A trick play on the first play got Angola going with an 18-yard halfback pass from Austin Bauer to Jake Roddy. SEE LAKERS, PAGE B2

BENTON — Fairfield used a big third quarter to walk past West Noble, 42-13, in Northeast Corner Conference football action Friday night. The first two quarters were close as Fairfield led 7-0 after the first 12 minutes and then led by a 14-7 score at halftime. But the Falcons opened the scoring floodgates with three touchdowns in the third quarter to come away with the home-field victory. The game was also costly for the Chargers, 1-3, as starting quarterback Landon Stover left the game in the third quarter and didn’t return. “He really took a shot and I don’t expect him to play next week,” West Noble coach Monte Mawhorter said of Stover. Levi Nelson scored both of the the Chargers’ touchdowns on short runs in the second and fourth quarters. Nelson carried the ball 26 times for 76 net yards; Payton Shrock had 12 runs for 94 yards. Stover completed 6-of-10 passes for 118 yards before he left the game. Shrock caught three of those completes for 73 yards, including one bomb for 53 yards. West Noble’s Riley McFarren caught two passes for 23 yards and Brandon Moser had one catch for 22 yards. “When Landon went down we lost a a little wind and a made a few mistakes they were able to capitalize on,” Mawhorter said. Fairfield picked up 215 yards rushing and 179 in the air. Cameron Kitson had 142 rushing yards for Fairfield, with 77 of those coming on a first-quarter touchdown run. This was the 51st meeting between the two schools. Fairfield moved to 3-1 on the season.

Prairie Heights scores shutout over Cougars BY CHRIS SMURR
ALBION—The Central Noble Cougars ran into a brick wall against a stingy Prairie Heights defense as the Panthers improved to 2-2 overall, taking down their Northeast Corner Conference foe 28-0 Friday night. Senior cornerback Corey Johnson had two interceptions for PH and senior linebacker Zach Shepard added a sack. “Our defensive play and installation of multiple fronts and multiple coverages (we had) last year, we’re seeing that happen this year,” Prairie Heights head coach Vincent Royer said. The fruits of his team’s labor paid off in full Friday, limiting what the Cougar offense could accomplish, despite losses on his team. “This week we had three defensive starters out,” Royer said. “Our younger guys, our sophomores are on their way and they are blooming. We’re very excited about that. We’re trying to develop not only the individual, but the team. It’s something that is now happening and we’re very pleased about that,” he added. The first quarter saw the Panthers’ offense start the game correctly by scoring 14 points. Both touchdowns came from turnovers created by Johnson. Shepard played double duty

Prairie Heights’ Zach Shepard, center, attempts to run through the tackles of Central Noble’s James Calvelage (77) and Fidel Murillo (8) during
on offense and defense. He ran the ball early in the first quarter by taking his team down to the Cougars’ 19-yard line. From there, senior running back Bobby Blum took a pitch and ran it into the end zone with 4 minutes, 31 seconds to play in the first quarter to put Prairie Heights up 6-0.
the first half of Friday night’s game in Albion. Prairie Heights won, 28-0.
Blum would find the end zone again in the fourth quarter, only this time taking no prisoners as he juked out would-be tacklers at the line of scrimmage and scored from 62 yards out. He finished the night with 84 yards on the ground on 15 carries while also hauling in two catches worth 51 yards
from senior quarterback Kyler West. West finished the game with 105 yards passing and touchdown passes to Shepard and senior Levi Tuckerman. In the second quarter, the Panthers’ offense came to a standstill. Royer and his staff
calmly regrouped the troops at the intermission. “Going into halftime, I always give the players their corrections,” Royer said. “Those corrections are on an individual basis, then as a group, he said. After that, they’ve break off with coaches and after that they got three to four minutes by themselves and then they’re back out. “It’s all business, which they’re not used to. Now they’re starting to get used to it and we saw it in the second half.” Royer was proud of his leaders. “In the second half, we allowed more of our younger guys to get reps and the older guys are peer teaching. That’s something that you don’t find a lot of in high school football. Our defensive lineman Ryder Moore and linebacker Dylan Stayner not only had to teach the younger guys, but keep them under control and knowing their role and doing their job.” Royer hopes to see his starters back from injury for next week’s non-conference home game with Woodlan. He was very gracious not just to his team’s performance, but also of the warm reception he has received thus far while being the Panthers’ head coach. “This community has really welcomed me in and I’m thankful for it,” Royer said.
LAKERS: Lakeland retains unbeaten record for season FROM PAGE B1
But Lakeland made the big play to stop the drive. Garretson blew up a Hornet option play to stop quarterback Trevor Lynch for a loss on fourth down. Angola had a hard time moving the ball from that point on. A game-changing play came in the final seconds of the first half. Angola was content to run it on fourth-and-11 at its own 44-yard line and play defense for about 10 seconds near midfield. But Petty broke up a handoff, took the ball away from Lynch and scampered 39 yards for a touchdown with 16 seconds left before halftime. Olivares kicked the extra point and Lakeland led 14-0 at the half. “That was huge,” Thompson said. “With a 7-0 lead, you are never comfortable. One missed tackle and things tighten up. That play helped loosen it up.” Angola coach Josh Schoeff said, “We wanted to run the ball inside the tackles, a pre-determined inside run. But their
linebacker (Petty) made a great play hitting Bauer on the give and taking the ball out of the air. On the flip side, we didn’t do what we were coached to do.” It was all Lakeland in the second half. It scored on a short field late in the third quarter to make it 21-0 after recovering a Hornet option pitch that went to nobody. Kyle Casper capped the two-play, 8-yard drive with a 5-yard scoring run at the 1:08 mark. Tayor Raatz added a 58-yard touchdown run and Olivares hit a 37-yard field goal in the fourth quarter for the Lakers. Raatz returned from missing last week’s game at Central Noble and rushed for 78 yards on only four carries. Thomas Roebel added 54 yards on 12 carries, and fullback Josh Collyer had 43 yards on seven rushes. Kelly completed 7-of-11 passes for 37 yards. Thompson thought his Lakers played more to their capabilities in the second half.
“We played better in the second half,” Thompson said. “We were doing some things in the first half that we can’t get away with against our schedule from here on out.” Bauer had a diving interception and a 57-yard punt in the second quarter for Angola. Schoeff thought his Hornets played better than the final score showed. And it’s still pretty early in the process with the veer option offense. “We really didn’t play that bad,” Schoeff said. “You take away the two free touchdowns, it’s only a 14-0 game and hard saying what might happen. “But we’re still missing enough assignments and that’s not good enough against a good football team. Lakeland is a good football team,” he added. “We identified their two best defensive linemen, but fundamentally did not do well enough. The option will take time, but we’re getting better.”

KNIGHTS: East Noble built 36-0 lead by halftime FROM PAGE B1
East Noble went into the half with a 36-0 lead, and scored 1:12 seconds into the second half when Mable took a handoff around the edge and sped 70 yards for a score. Wolfe then hit sophomore receiver Bret Sible on a fade in the corner of the endzone for a 5-yard touchdown the next Knights series. By the end of the third quarter, DeKalb’s offense began to get its legs — largely against the East Noble reserves. Price hit a streaking Chad Ramus in stride for a 49-yard completion that stands as the Barons’ biggest play of the year. Then late in the fourth quarter, Price led the offense into the redzone for the first time this season, capped by a 3-yard keeper around the end that was the first score of the season for the Barons’ offense.
“We’ve been close a couple times this year and it’s nice to finally put that in there. It’s a nice goal that we hit there,” said DeKalb coach Mike DeVos. DeVos said he was proud of his team, which played hard throughout the game. “The score obviously (is bad) — 50-7 —but we played four quarters of football, we had some good drives on offense, and we had some good stops defensively against a very good East Noble team,” said DeVos. “We got a little bit better tonight, and every week we’ve just got to get a little bit better. We’ve got to start from the base, get the little things down, and improve each week.” Price finished 4 for 21 for 59 yards passing with an interception. Wolfe threw for 109 yards and a touchdown for the Knights.

Tannehill hopes to even series with Luck INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Ryan Tannehill admires everything Andrew Luck can do on a football field. He’s seen the big arm, the surprising athleticism, even the stunning strength as he followed Luck’s career through high school, college and the NFL. Now, with the two Texas prep stars about to meet for the second time in the NFL, the Dolphins quarterback is eager to show everyone how much progress he’s made. And that he deserves to be mentioned with the top stars from the 2012 quarterback draft class. “Last year in training camp I was battling for the starting position, so I really got to use training camp this year to really grow, and grow in the offense,” he said. “We are excited about what we can do this year.” And why not? A year ago, Tannehill was the No. 8 pick, going behind Luck and Robert Griffin III and ahead of Russell Wilson. Despite being upstaged by all three, Tannehill still managed to break Miami’s rookie records for completions, attempts and yards — records previously held by David Woodley, Bob Griese and Dan Marino. The knock was he threw 12 TD passes and 13 interceptions and won seven games, failing to reach the playoffs like Luck, Griffin and Wilson. Things might be changing. A year after losing 23-20 to Luck and the Colts (1-0), Miami (1-0) returns to Indy with a new cast and coming off a 23-10 win over Cleveland. Luck isn’t surprised by Tannehill’s progress. “I’ve always been impressed

with him as a football player,” the Colts quarterback said. “To get to know him as a person was great, he’s a phenomenal guy.” Here are five things to watch Sunday: MIRROR, MIRROR: No teams spent more money in free agency than Indianapolis and Miami, and no two teams went about it quite the same way. Indy tried to reinforce its offensive line, added a high-profile receiver, a power runner and revamped its defense. The Dolphins did essentially the same thing, though they spent more money on WR Mike Wallace than any other offensive spot. Sunday’s game gives the
two big spenders a chance to see which team got the better bargain. PROTECTION CONNECTION: Colts owner Jim Irsay used Twitter to “demand” the Colts protect the franchise quarterback better after giving up four sacks last week. It could have been worse. Somehow, Luck escaped another seemingly certain sack, and took a couple of other big shots during the game. Irsay expects to see far fewer hits this week. In Miami, the complaints haven’t been the same after Tannehill was sacked four times, but both teams expect better performances in Indy.
UNHAPPY CAMPERS: Apparently, winning doesn’t cure all ills. Miami’s Randy Starks, unhappy with stalled contract negotiations and the fact he didn’t start last week, made his displeasure known with an obscene gesture during last week’s victory. Wallace, who signed a $60 million deal, was angry after catching one pass. If the Dolphins can put these issues behind them, it could go a long way in determining how competitive they will be against the Colts — and perhaps the rest of the season. THE SWITCHEROO: Vontae Davis’ trade from Miami to Indianapolis was profiled on last year’s “Hard Knocks.” He gets a second shot at his former team, and the Dolphins may not recognize Davis. Since December 2012, the former first-round draft pick has improved steadily. He won’t be the only player with something to prove Sunday. Former Colts linebacker Phillip Wheeler goes against his former team, and three ex-Dolphins — center Samson Satele, right guard Donald Thomas and linebacker Erik Walden — will start for Indy. HOME, SWEET HOME: When the Colts hired coach Chuck Pagano, he promised to make Lucas Oil Stadium a tough venue. Indy is just one play away — an improbable last-minute, 80-yard TD pass from Jacksonville — from having a perfect home mark under Pagano’s tenure. The Colts have won seven straight at home, while Miami is 3-6 on the road under second-year coach Joe Philbin.

SPORTS BRIEFS • NASCAR adds Gordon to Chase field amid controversy JOLIET, Ill. (AP) — NASCAR added Jeff Gordon to the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship field Friday, a stunning and unprecedented step in the fallout from at least two attempts to manipulate the results of the regular season-ending race at Richmond last weekend. Chairman Brian France expanded the field to 13 drivers for the first time since the format was implemented in 2004. Front Row Motorsports appeared to ask for a deal from Penske Racing in the closing laps at Richmond as part of an apparent request from Penske to give Joey Logano pivotal track position he needed to earn a spot in the Chase. Logano passed Front Row driver David Gilliland, who then seemed to slow down by at least 1 mph, according to an Associated Press review of radio communications and data. France said NASCAR could not determine there was a bargain between Front Row and Penske, but still believed the move was necessary to protect the “integrity” of the series. He said both teams had been placed on probation for the rest of the season. Gordon, the four-time champion, now joins Hendrick Motorsports teammates Jimmie Johnson, the five-time champion, Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Kasey Kahne in the Chase. Gordon goes into the Chase as the 13th seed, 15 points behind leader Matt Kenseth when the 10-race series begins Sunday at Chicagoland Speedway. NASCAR will hold a mandatory team and driver meeting Saturday to clarify “the rules of the road” moving forward. France would not specify what won’t be tolerated going forward. The entire mess began a mere seven laps from the finish Saturday night with Newman en route to a victory that would have given him the final spot in the Chase. MWR driver Clint Bowyer spun, bringing out a caution and setting in motion a chain of events that cost Newman the win and a Chase berth. It also cost Gordon a Chase berth and put Truex and Logano into the final two spots. It later became clear that Bowyer’s spin was deliberate — although NASCAR has said it can’t prove that — and that Bowyer and teammate Brian Vickers allowed Logano to gain late finishing positions to bump Gordon out of the Chase to aid Truex. Among the penalties levied against MWR was a $300,000 fine and the indefinite suspension of general manager Ty Norris. Bowyer, Truex and Brian Vickers were docked 50 points each, and their crew chiefs were placed on probation through the end of the year. Bowyer has denied the spin was deliberate. NASCAR could only prove one action — radio communication between Norris and Vickers in which a confused Vickers was told to pit as the field went green with three laps to go.
Appeals court upholds slugger Bonds’ conviction SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A federal appeals court in San Francisco on Friday upheld former Giants slugger Barry Bond’s obstruction of justice conviction stemming from his 2003 testimony to a grand jury investigating performance enhancing drug use among elite athletes. The Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that Bonds’ response to a question about whether his trainer, Greg Anderson, had ever given him any self-injectable substances was “evasive, misleading, and capable of influencing the grand jury to minimize the trainer’s role in the distribution of performance enhancing drugs.” Bonds gave the testimony before a grand jury in December 2003 after prosecutors asked him whether Anderson had ever given him “anything that required a syringe to inject yourself with?” Bonds referred to his father, former major leaguer Bobby Bonds, when he responded “that’s what keeps our friendship. You know, I am sorry, but that — you know, that — I was a celebrity child, not just in baseball by my own instincts. I became a celebrity child with a famous father. I just don’t get into other people’s business because of my father’s situation, you see ...” A federal jury in April 2011 found baseball’s all-time home runs leader guilty of obstruction as a result of that response. That particular exchange wasn’t included in the indictment originally released in November 2007. During oral arguments before the appeals court, Bonds’ attorney argued that that omission was a “dagger in the heart” of Bonds’ conviction. The attorney, Dennis Riordan, also said that Bonds ultimately answered the question when it was put to him again and he denied receiving any substance to inject. Assistant U.S. Attorney Merry Jean Chan countered that the denial was a lie because Bonds’ former personal assistant, Cathy Hoskins, testified that she witnessed Anderson inject Bonds. Chan said Bonds’ denial and his other rambling answers to the same question throughout his grand jury appearance added up to obstruction. Bonds is now facing 30-days’ home confinement as well as two years of probation, 250 hours of community service and a $4,000 fine.

THE NEWS SUN
Road to Damascus Some things you just have to do, in spite of great uncertainty. Launching missiles at Syria isn’t one of them. Many pundits talk about going to war as if all we have to do is make up our minds about what “ought” to happen — who the bad guys are — and the rest is just details. If we decide we must punish a tyrant, let the military worry about how to get it done. We ought to worry more about details. Everyone agrees there are huge “known unknowns” in Syria — we barely know the composition of the rebel movement we’re supposed to aid — we should be more JOHN but concerned about “unknown unknowns,” to borrow STOSSEL former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld’s phrase. Remember the confidence with which he and other Bush administration officials described their plans to remake Iraq? Dick Cheney said, “We will, in fact, be greeted as liberators.” The Wall Street Journal beat the drums for war for a year. I read that Iraq was full of repressed democratic activists just waiting for Saddam to be overthrown. Pundits also argued that once the authoritarian ruler was gone, Iraq would blossom into a showcase of peace and democracy that would inspire transformation throughout the region. I wanted to believe it. Once they had a choice, why wouldn’t they pursue our way of life? It’s clearly better! Instead, we’ve spent more than a decade fighting feuding factions that most Americans have never heard of — and still can’t name. When pro-war pundits did admit to uncertainty about what would happen in Iraq, it was often to stoke fear about what would happen if we didn’t intervene. Saddam might use chemical weapons! Saddam might get nukes! Well, maybe. I’m glad Saddam is gone, and Iraqis are better off. But the masses yearning to breathe free turned out to include more troublemakers than we expected. I don’t trust John Kerry, but I’ll accept his claim that Syria’s leaders probably used chemical weapons to kill 1,400 people. Horrible. But are we going to enforce a “red line” to tell dictators that if they murder their people, they better use conventional weapons? Even if that’s the goal, our options are limited. Maybe we’ll: • lob a few cruise missiles, like Bill Clinton did in Sudan. • hit Assad’s compound, killing hundreds of innocents, without killing Assad. • kill Assad himself and then … what? President Obama argues that limited intervention in Syria might accomplish good more quickly and cheaply than our efforts in Iraq did. He said he wants a two-day engagement instead of months of fighting. But we thought that would happen in Iraq, too. We didn’t foresee years of civil war. What do we fail to foresee now? More intervention from Russia? China? Iran? World war? Even if the conflict remains localized and contained — a dangerous assumption in the “fog of war” — we can’t assume that a new government will be more democratic or tolerant than Assad’s regime. We already know that the rebel forces include factions allied with al-Qaida. Some of those people execute Christians and want to replace Assad’s repressive but multi-faith regime with Islamic totalitarianism. If they murder Christians while still fighting Assad, what will they do once in power? Years ago, al-Qaida (and Osama bin Laden) gained power because America funded “rebels” fighting the Russians in Afghanistan. Given what happened on Sept. 11, 2001, there are worse things than leaving murderous Russian-backed governments in place. I hate Assad. I hate what’s happened in Syria. I also hate what happened in Rwanda and Darfur and what still happens in Somalia, China, Russia, Zimbabwe and so on. But there’s just not much we can do about it without making new enemies and exacerbating America’s coming bankruptcy. America cannot police the world and shouldn’t try. Defense should mean defense. Unless we are attacked, we shouldn’t go to war.

Voice Of The People • Thanks offered for help with blood drive; donors needed
Sponsors, supporters of Stone’s Trace Pioneer Festival thanked
To the editor: The American Red Cross wishes to thank the Ligonier Sports and Recreation Center for hosting our Sept. 6 blood drive. Many people worked to stage this important event. Norma Buchanan and Saundra Luke made lots of calls to line up our volunteers and plan the lunch menu. Ken and Nancy Stump, Kay Collins, Betty Grawcock, Julie Routsong, JoAnne Franks, Ruth Ann Hite and Saundra Luke were the volunteers for the day. We appreciate everything brought in by our workers to make our canteen so good, especially the pies from Jo-Anne Franks and Julie Routsong. Ligonier Pizza Hut donated four large delicious pizzas, and manager Ben Miller was also a donor this time. Everyone who donated, or tried to donate, made everyone’s hard work well worth it. As always, members of the Ligonier Lions Club helped tear down after the drive. The Cromwell-Kimmell Lions Club, Ligonier Lions, area radio stations and churches, The Advance Leader of Ligonier, The News Sun and Ferrellgas of Kimmell all helped with publicity and/or expenses for supplies. Everyone’s support is deeply appreciated. Unfortunately, we fell quite a bit short of our goal. Needless to say, there was no waiting this time. We would have had plenty of staff and chairs for at least 30 more people. The drive at the Ligonier United Methodist church on Nov. 1 will be an opportunity for us donors to make and even exceed goal. Please mark that date on your calendars! I am making a plea to everyone to please talk these blood drives up! Some lives literally depend on these drives. Our local blood drives help enable the Red Cross to keep their inventories sufficient to meet our area medical needs and emergencies. Almost all of us have known someone who has needed a transfusion because of an accident or illness. Let’s make every effort to not let future victims down. Also please remember that if your iron is sometimes low, take iron supplements for a few days before each scheduled blood drive.

We all need to do a little purple for Mary We take our stories and our secrets to those we trust in our lives. Sometimes these folks are relatives or close friends or they are the folks we see on occasion. These folks greet us with a smile, tell us to have a seat and listen to our stories. Bartender. Barbershop owner. Hairdresser. Fortune teller. Horse groomer. Which one am I choosing? I have to say I have a secret love affair with my hairdresser, Mary Ramsey. Mary and I have had this affair for over 10 years. I walk into the shop, am greeted with her smile and we begin. I love visiting Mary. In one short hour we can cover all our news with nonstop talking. Not only is she my hairdresser, but Mary has starred in our theater Radio Shows. Before each show she brings along the girls from Finishing Touch to do hair and make-up to make sure we look star quality on stage. Once in a while I do worry that my hair will turn blue or she will take a whack at it with the scissors. I carry a picture of Susan Sarandon in my bag and always set it out so she can see our ultimate goal. The picture is a bit wrinkled, but nonetheless I always set it out. Mary laughs each time. This love relationship did not always exist in my life. The first time I ever visited the beauty shop (as we called it) I had cut my own hair. We were swimming every day when I was 11 and had to wear bathing caps. My long hair was jammed up inside the cap, so I cut a hole in the top to let my ponytail trail out. One day I thought I would be clever
enough to cut my hair a little shorter, so I simply cut off the pony tail. It didn’t work out so well. My mom took me to the Beauty Shop, where I ended up with a pixie hair cut. I am still a bit spontaneous about my hair. Once when I was teaching at Hamilton I asked Lynne Bercaw to cut my hair off during recess. We went down to the nurse’s room (where the scissors were really sharp) and she did cut off my hair. I let Jonah cut LOU ANN it once also when he was 3. What was I thinking on HOMAN- that one? The last time a nonhairdresser cut my hair SAYLOR was this summer after I broke my arm and couldn’t put it in a ponytail. I gave the scissors to Kristin, my daughter-in-law, and told her to cut off my hair. She actually did a good job. Mary often jokes with me when I take a seat in her chair. “So, who did you have cut your hair this time?” She does not forget a story. After my accident in China, Mary came to my house twice and set up shop in my kitchen. Does it get any better than that? Usually she works and we laugh out loud, and sometimes we whisper. Time flies. By the time I leave I have forgotten I actually came in because of hair. I think Mary and
•
I could while away any summer afternoon even without scissors in her hand. But now, after all her kindness to everyone who meets her, Mary needs us. Mary was diagnosed with breast cancer in August and is preparing for surgery and for what else may follow in the months ahead. It is our time to take care of Mary. I know the usual color for breast cancer awareness is pink, but our Mary has purple hair. She just doesn’t do pink. So, ladies and gentlemen, the campaign is just beginning. We are going purple for Mary. You don’t have to color all your hair, unless you want to, but just a piece here and there. I am calling this Fifty Shades of Purple. The girls at Finishing Touch (or other salons) are ready for you to add this lovely color to your hair. My purple streak is underneath and is plainly visible when I pull my hair back. Every day I think of Mary when I see this purple. Sometimes it just feels really good to do something for someone. Mary is not just someone. She is a wonderful friend to many. So, let’s go purple! One more thing … do I or don’t I? I have to say that only my hairdresser knows, and Mary isn’t about to tell. LOU ANN HOMAN-SAYLOR lives in Angola at the White Picket Gardens where you can find her gardening or writing late into the night under the light of her frayed scarlet lamp. She is a storyteller, teacher, writer, actress and a collector of front porch stories.

Briefs • Flight 666 goes to Helsinki on Friday the 13th HELSINKI (AP) — Would you board flight 666 to HEL on Friday the 13th? For superstitious travelers, that might be tempting fate. But Finnair passengers on AY666 to Helsinki — which has the 3 letter designation HEL — didn’t seem too bothered. Friday’s flight was almost full. “It has been quite a joke among the pilots” said veteran Finnair pilot Juha-Pekka Keidasto, who flew the Airbus A320 from Copenhagen to Helsinki. “I’m not a superstitious man. It’s only a coincidence for me.” The daily flight AY666 from Copenhagen to Helsinki falls on Friday the 13th twice in 2013. Friday the 13th is considered bad luck in many countries and the number 666 also has strong negative biblical associations. Some airlines, like Scandinavian Airlines, take these fears seriously and don’t have a row 13 on board. However, the negative connotations are a relatively new phenomenon for northern Europeans, and Finnair and other regional carriers like Norwegian and Estonian Air keep row 13.
Four sentenced to death in India gang rape trial NEW DELHI (AP) — An Indian court Friday sentenced to death four men for the gang rape and murder of a young New Delhi woman, ordering them to the gallows for a brutal attack that riveted India, where it became a symbol of the widespread mistreatment of women and the government’s inability to deal with crime. Issuing his decision, Judge Yogesh Khanna said the attack “shocked the collective conscience” of India. “In these times, when crime against women is on the rise, the courts cannot turn a blind eye toward such gruesome crimes.” After the death sentence, the wail of one of the four men, 20-year-old Vinay Sharma, filled the tiny courtroom. Sharma, an assistant at a gym, then broke down in sobs. As Khanna walked from his bench, defense lawyer A.P. Singh, who has defended all four men at various times, began to shout at him: “This is not the victory of truth. But it is the defeat of justice.” Like all death sentences, Khanna’s order must be confirmed by India’s High Court.
People • Lohan’s mother charged with drunken driving FARMINGDALE, N.Y. (AP) — Lindsay Lohan’s mother is facing an aggravated drunken driving charge in New York following a traffic stop on Long Island. State police say Dina Lohan, 50, was stopped on the Northern State Parkway Lohan in Nassau County at 11 p.m. Thursday after troopers clocked her driving a BMW at 77 mph in a 55-mph zone. She took a breath test that pegged her blood-alcohol level at 0.20 percent, police said. That’s more than twice New York’s legal limit of 0.08 percent. Lohan was brought to a state police barracks in Farmingdale, issued tickets for driving while intoxicated and speeding and then released to a “sober third party,” state police said in a news release. She is due in court Sept. 24.

Four dead from flooding in Colorado LYONS, Colo. (AP) — Coffee-colored floodwaters cascaded downstream from the Colorado Rockies on Friday, transforming normally scenic rivers and creeks into fast, unforgiving torrents and forcing thousands more evacuations from water-logged communities beset by days of steady rain. The relentless rush of water turned whole towns into muddy swamps and brought most transportation to a standstill. Damage assessments were on hold as authorities tried to rescue more than 2,500 people stranded in an emergency that stretched from Colorado Springs all the way to the Wyoming border. A break in the weather aided crews as they ferried a dozen residents at a time out of Lyons and other mountain towns that had been cut off by high water. The Colorado National Guard tweeted that it helped evacuate nearly 300 people from Lyons and on Friday added helicopter flights to the search-and-rescue efforts, spokeswoman
Cheresa Theiral said. Many roads remained impassable, and still more rain was expected later in the day. The overflowing St. Vrain River sliced the town of Longmont in half. All major roads were closed, and several thousand homes and businesses were without power. “This one’s going to bring us to our knees,” said Tom Simmons, president and co-owner of Crating Technologies, a packing service that had its warehouse inundated. “It’s hoping against hope. We’re out of business for a long time.” Most of those who were stranded were not in immediate danger. Many chose to stay behind with loved ones or to watch over their property. But some families had been without electricity or running water for two days. Others were low on fuel and medicine. At least four people have been killed. And the rains forced hundreds of people to seek emergency shelter up and down Colorado’s heavily populated Front Range, which has received

Retail sales show growth in August WASHINGTON (AP) — Americans boosted their spending at retail businesses only modestly in August, indicating that economic growth remains sluggish. Consumers bought more cars, furniture and electronics last month but held back on most other purchases. Spending at retail businesses rose just 0.2 percent last month, the Commerce Department said Friday. It was the smallest gain in four months. But AP the government said retail Firefighters look at the charred area the large portion of the boardwalk Friday in spending was stronger in the previous month than first morning after a massive fire burned a Seaside Park, N.J. estimated, revising the July estimate to 0.4 percent from 0.2 percent Excluding volatile spending on autos, gas and building supplies, sales in August increased just 0.2 percent, or less than half July’s 0.5 percent gain.

July-September quarter, about the same as the previous quarter. That suggests economic growth is slowing to an annual rate of about 2 percent, down from the 2.5 percent annual rate that the government estimated for the April-June quarter. Most economists said the retail sales figures are likely healthy enough for the Federal Reserve to begin cutting back its monthly bond purchases when it meets next week. The Fed is buying $85 billion in Treasury bonds and mortgage-backed securities each month to keep interest rates low and spur more borrowing and spending. Sales of autos and furniture both jumped 0.9 percent in August. Electronics and appliance sales rose 0.8 percent. But clothing sales dropped 0.8 percent and sporting goods sales also fell. Last week automakers reported that their sales in August topped 16 million at an annual pace for the first time since November 2007, just before the recession began. Toyota, Ford, Nissan, Honda, Chrysler and General Motors all posted double-digit gains over last August. But many retailers have said in recent weeks that shoppers have been reluctant to spend freely for back-toschool shopping. According to a tally of 10 retail chains by the International Council of Shopping Centers, sales rose 3.6 percent last month. That’s down from a 6 percent gain for in August 2012.
Girl bullied for almost a year before suicide TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — For nearly a year, as many as 15 girls ganged up on 12-year-old Rebecca Ann Sedwick and picked on her, authorities say, bombarding her with online messages such as “You should die” and “Why don’t you go kill yourself.” Rebecca couldn’t take it anymore. She changed one of her online screen names to “That Dead Girl.” She messaged a boy in North Carolina: “I’m jumping.” And then, on Monday, the Lakeland girl went to an abandoned concrete plant, climbed a tower and hurled herself to her death. Authorities have seized computers and cellphones from some of the girls as they decide whether to bring charges in what appeared to be the nation’s latest deadly cyberbullying case. The bullying started over a “boyfriend issue” last
year at Crystal Lake Middle School, Sheriff Grady Judd said. But he gave no details. Police said Rebecca was suspended at one point for fighting with a girl who used to be her friend. Rebecca had been “absolutely terrorized” by the other girls, Judd said. He said detectives found some of her diaries at her home, and she talked of how depressed she was about the situation. “Her writings would break your heart,” he said. The case has illustrated, once more, the ways in which youngsters are using the Internet to torment others. “There is a lot of digital drama. Middle-school kids are horrible to each other, especially girls,” said Perry Aftab, a New Jersey-based lawyer and expert on cyberbullying. Last December, Rebecca was hospitalized for three
days after cutting her wrists because of what she said was bullying, according to the sheriff. Later, after Rebecca complained that she had been pushed in the hallway and that another girl wanted to fight her, Rebecca’s mother began home-schooling her in Lakeland, a city of about 100,000 midway between Tampa and Orlando, Judd said. This fall, Rebecca started at a new school, Lawton Chiles Middle Academy, and loved it, Judd said. But the bullying continued online. “She put on a perfect, happy face. She never told me,” Rebecca’s mother, Tricia Norman, told the Lakeland Ledger. “I never had a clue. I mean, she told me last year when she was being bullied, but not this year, and I have no idea why.” After Rebecca’s suicide, police looked at her computer and found search queries such as “what is
overweight for a 13-year-old girl,” ”how to get blades out of razors,” and “how many over-the-counter drugs do you take to die.” One of her screensavers also showed Rebecca with her head resting on a railroad track. Police said that she had met the North Carolina boy at an airport and that they had remained friends online. The 12-year-old boy didn’t tell anyone about the “I’m jumping, I can’t take it anymore” message he received from her on Monday morning, shortly before her suicide, authorities said. Detectives said the other girls’ parents have been cooperative. Florida has a bullying law, but it leaves punishment to schools, not police. Legal experts said it is difficult to bring charges against someone accused of driving a person to suicide. “We’ve had so many
suicides that are related to digital harassment. But we also have free-speech laws in this country,” Aftab said. In a review of news articles, The Associated Press found about a dozen suicides in the U.S. since October 2010 that were attributed at least in part to cyberbullying. Aftab said she believes the real number is at least twice that. In 2006, 13-year-old Megan Meier hanged herself in California after she was dumped online by a fictitious teenage boy created in part by an adult neighbor, Lori Drew, authorities said. A jury found Drew guilty of three federal misdemeanors, but a judge threw out the verdicts and acquitted her. Florida’s law, the Jeffrey Johnston Stand Up for All Students Act, was named after a teenager who killed himself after being harassed by classmates.

I’m really smart, and at my school that’s a really bad thing. I try hard to be nice, but here that’s worse than being smart. The teachers didn’t help me with the bullies, so I stopped telling them. My mom told everyone she could about the bullies, but nobody helps. It keeps getting worse over time. Every day someone picks on me, pushes me or makes fun of me. Please help me. —FEELING TORN IN TEXAS DEAR FEELING TORN: Because you haven’t told your teachers that the bullying hasn’t stopped, they may think that it’s no longer going on. Tell them again what you are experiencing, and be sure your mother knows. She should discuss this with your teacher. If things don’t get better, she needs to talk to the principal and, if

may also use other therapies. These include massage, heat and cold therapies, and electrotherapies. For some people, chiropractic care reduces the amount of medication needed to control pain. A 2010 review looked at 12 studies involving 2,887 people with low back pain. It concluded that chiropractic care improved short- and mediumterm pain more than other treatments. These included exercise, physical therapy and medication. But the overall differences were slight — and there was no difference in long-term pain. People who saw chiropractors also reported less short-term disability compared with people who received other treatments. But again, the difference was small. On the other hand, studies like this one give us good information about the experience of the average patient. You may or may not be like the “average” patient. If you have

DEAR DOCTOR K: I suffer from low back pain, and I’m thinking of visiting a chiropractor for spinal manipulation treatments. What do you think? DEAR READER: Spinal manipulation treatments are performed by chiropractors, osteopaths, and some massage and physical therapists. More than one of my patients has tried this treatment for back pain. They usually don’t like to tell me about it, because they think I’ll disapprove. Actually, I think there is evidence from scientific studies that chiropractic therapy for short-term or recurrent pain may be at least as effective as the treatments that I have to offer. But there’s not enough evidence to recommend chiropractic care for chronic back pain. Your spine is made up of a column of interlocking bones called vertebrae. Each vertebra has a circular solid body and a bony ring behind it. The
necessary, the school board. Many schools offer programs that discourage bullying and train students who can help. As a last resort, your mother should consult a lawyer. You have a right to an education that’s free DEAR from this ABBY kind of pressure.
had good relief from spinal manipulation in the past, I would not discourage you from trying it again. Chiropractic care carries a small degree of risk. That’s especially true for people with neck pain. While I know of patients who have found relief from spinal manipulation of the vertebrae in the neck, I think such treatment is risky. Very rarely, chiropractic manipulations can worsen or even cause additional problems. You also should avoid spinal manipulation if you have rheumatoid arthritis or nerve-related low back pain. If you’ve been told you have a “slipped disk” or a “herniated disk” that is pinching a nerve and causing pain in your buttock, thigh and lower leg, that’s likely nerve-related pain. DR.

Helping Great Lakes rare bipartisan goal TRAVERSE CITY, Mich. (AP) — Nowhere has the fervor to cut government down to size been more dramatically on display than in the industrial Midwest. Republicans have seized control of statehouses across the traditional battleground region, where they’ve slashed budgets with a vengeance. Their counterparts in Congress have waged war with Democrats over federal spending, led by Rep. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin, architect of blueprints that renounce “earmarks” for local
projects and even target Social Security. But there’s a 94,000-square-mile exception to the Republicans’ crusade to starve the federal beast: the Great Lakes. For all their indignation about government overreach, Republicans in the eight-state region are matching Democrats’ enthusiasm for an array of federal programs benefiting the inland seas, from dredging harbors to controlling invasive predators like the
fish-killing sea lamprey. When a House subcommittee this summer tried to cut 80 percent of President Barack Obama’s Great Lakes Restoration Initiative, which has pumped $1.3 billion into 1,700 grants for cleanups and research since 2010, alarmed Republican freshman David Joyce of Ohio quickly weighed in to get most of next year’s money restored. A bipartisan parade from neighboring states is now backing his push to get the rest of the money or even increase it.
Where the Great Lakes are concerned, party politics really does stop at the water’s edge. It’s a marriage of convenience, explained partly by the lakes’ equal importance to the economy and the environment. They supply the drinking needs of more than 30 million people, support 1.5 million jobs and generate $62 billion in wages annually. They’re also home to more than 3,500 plant and animal species. More fundamentally, the vast lakes are cultural icons, inspiring poetry such
as Longfellow’s “The Song of Hiawatha” and countless memories of fishing with grandpa or camping on the beach. “There’s just something about the Great Lakes that’s part of our DNA, I think,” said Rep. Candice Miller, a Republican from suburban Detroit. “It’s hard to explain. It’s about our way of life.” In Congress, vote-rich states such as Illinois and Ohio, along with neighboring Pennsylvania and New York, pack considerable punch when they

stick together. Other clean-water programs lacking such an impassioned constituency haven’t fared as well. Federal funds that provide loans for drinking water and sewage treatment improvements also were cut 80 percent. No one has come to their rescue. “The Great Lakes Restoration Initiative is among the most fiercely defended programs in the country,” said Andy Buchsbaum, regional director of the National Wildlife Federation.
