Defense claims officer did not appear intoxicated FORT WAYNE (AP) — A defense attorney says an Indianapolis police officer charged with causing a fatal crash with his squad car didn’t appear drunk to the many officers and others who spoke with him that day. Attorneys made opening statements Wednesday in the long-delayed trial of David Bisard on charges including reckless homicide and drunken driving stemming from the August 2010 crash into two motorcycles that killed a man and seriously injured two other people. Defense attorney John Kautzman says he’ll have experts testify that blood tests done on Bisard were flawed. Prosecutors say those tests showed Bisard had a blood-alcohol level of more than twice Indiana’s legal limit of 0.08 percent.
Indy tries to warn of heroin dangers INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — A new public service announcement campaign is warning Indianapolis residents about the dangers of heroin after the Marion County coroner’s office reported 49 people died of overdoses from the drug in the first six months of this year. Coroner Frank Lloyd says the numbers represent a disturbing trend. Officials say the campaign launched Tuesday also follows a sharp increase in the number of emergency room visits and property crimes related to heroin use.

Man killed by train identified BY DENNIS NARTKER dnartker@kpcmedia.com
KENDALLVILLE — Anthony Sills, 41, of Kendallville was killed Tuesday when he was struck by a train while crossing the Main Street railroad tracks in a battery-powered wheelchair. Investigators don’t know exactly what happened and hope video from Sills a camera mounted on the train’s lead engine will provide them with answers. Was he trying to cross before the train passed, or could he have been stopped on the crossing for some reason and could not escape in time? These are among the questions investigators hope to answer after reviewing the video.
Sills often traveled on city sidewalks and crossed the Main Street tracks in his powered wheelchair. Police Chief Rob Wiley said Wednesday the investigation is continuing, and results from the video may be available in about a week. Sills died from blunt-force trauma from the train hitting him, Noble County Coroner Joan Cripe reported Wednesday. No autopsy is scheduled. Emergency responders were called to the scene at 5:18 p.m. The westbound freight train had stopped, blocking the Main Street and Riley Street crossings. Sills’ body was found along the north side of the tracks, just west of the Kendallville Pawn Shop at 211 N. Main St.
Victim was well-known throughout Kendallville BY DAVE KURTZ dkurtz@kpcmedia.com
KENDALLVILLE — Ray Sills “was one of those people that everybody loved, and everybody in town knew him,” longtime friend Faith Meyer of Kendallville said Wednesday. Though cerebral palsy confined Sills to a wheelchair, “He never let his disability limit him on where he would go. He would get in his power chair and go down to Bixler Lake and hang out with people,” Meyer said.

KENDALLVILLE — The Kendallville Area Chamber of Commerce has a new executive director. Lynette Leamon of Kendallville, the chamber’s marketing and public relations coordinator from 2010 to 2012 and a marketing and public relations specialist, started her duties Tuesday as executive director. Leamon, a 1982 East Noble High School graduate, fills a vacancy created by Michael Walton’s resignation last month. Asked why she returned to the chamber, Leamon said she is excited about promoting and supporting local businesses and the relationships she has enjoyed over the years with people in the Kendallville community. “With my marketing background, I hope to boost the chamber’s connections to business and industry,” she said. As the chamber’s public relations coordinator, Leamon solicited chamber memberships and sponsors and coordinated planning and sponsorships for all chamber events. From 2003 to 2010, Leamon was membership and marketing director for Cole Center Family YMCA in Kendallville, and from 1994 to 2003 she was a marketing assistant and marketing and communications administrator

WASHINGTON (AP) — Up against a deadline, Congress passed and sent a waiting President Barack Obama legislation late Wednesday night to avoid a threatened national default and end the 16-day partial government shutdown, the culmination of an epic political drama that placed the U.S. economy at risk. The Senate voted first, a bipartisan 81-18 at midevening. That cleared the way for a final 285-144 vote in the Republican-controlled House about two hours later on the legislation, which hewed strictly to the terms Obama laid down when the twin crises erupted more than three weeks ago. The legislation would permit the Treasury to borrow normally through Feb. 7 or perhaps a month longer, and fund the government through Jan. 15. More than 2 million federal workers would be paid — those who had remained on the job and those who had been furloughed. After the Senate approved the measure, Obama hailed the vote and said he would sign it immediately after it reached his desk. “We’ll begin reopening our government immediately and we can begin to lift this cloud of uncertainty from our businesses and the American people.” Later, in the House, Rep. Harold Rogers, R-Ky., said, “After two long weeks, it is time to end this government shutdown. It’s time to take the threat of default
ANGOLA — Say it ain’t so. Say it ain’t snow. The sad reality is at least one weather forecasting outlet is calling for possible snow in nearby parts of the Midwest this weekend. Weather maps do not show snow in Indiana’s future — at least not yet. AccuWeather.com reports as waves of colder air sweep southward from Canada, the first snowflakes of the season are possible for some locations in northern portions of Minnesota,
Wisconsin and Michigan. The combination of progressively colder air and weak disturbances will set the atmosphere up to produce chilly rain showers over the Upper Midwest starting this weekend, predicts AccuWeather. com, which provides weather for our website, kpcnews.com. The warm waters of the Great Lakes will warm the air slightly but, at the same time, will add some moisture to the air and make some of the showers heavier.

Church plans to remodel, occupy former IGA building BY DENNIS NARTKER dnartker@kpcmedia.com
KENDALLVILLE — A local church plans to remodel and move into a former grocery store building that has been vacant for years. The Board of Zoning Appeals Wednesday night granted Destiny Family Faith Church a special exception for a church in the former IGA grocery store at 445 N. Riley St. The property is zoned for commercial use, and the city’s zoning codes allow for a church in a commercial district, said Dave Lange, city director of planning and zoning. “This is a good use for a building not being used,” said board member John Blume, before making a motion to grant the special exception. The church currently holds
services in a former commercial building in Cornerstone Plaza on the city’s north side. Mike Albaugh with the church told the board the church plans to purchase the Riley Street property, remodel the building and clean up the lot and parking lot. The lot has two Riley Street accesses and one Wayne Street access. Board members expressed no concerns with the special exception, provided the church follows Lange’s recommendations and designs parking spaces to accommodate a minimum of one space for every three seats in the church. Lange told the board he is working with the church’s engineer on the building’s remodeled design. No one attended the meeting to object to the special exception.
ALBION — Prosecutors have dropped one of two of the arresting officer’s preliminary charges against a Kendallville man reported in Tuesday’s edition of The News Sun. Matthew R.

STAR Team named to Indiana Main Street program BY BOB BRALEY bbraley@kpcmedia.com
ALBION — The Super Town of Albion Revitalization Team has been named as a member community in the Indiana Main Street program, it was announced Wednesday. “Developing a strong business climate in our downtowns is crucial for community development,” said Lt. Gov. Ellspermann. “I’m pleased to welcome Albion to the Indiana
Main Street Program. “Whether it’s the Harvest Chili Cook Off or the preservation of historic downtown buildings, focusing on the downtown area can revitalize the heart of our communities.” “We are glad to have the S.T.A.R. Team as part of the Indiana Main Street family. The new organization has the support of the broader community which understands the importance of a
thriving downtown,” said Indiana Main Street program manager Shae Kmicikewycz. The Indiana Main Street program encourages economic development, redevelopment and improvement to the downtown areas of Indiana’s cities and towns. The S.T.A.R. Team will join more than 115 other Indiana Main Street Communities dedicated to revitalization of their downtown areas.
The program is founded on a four-point approach to downtown development: organization, design, promotion and economic restructuring. Each of the points represents an aspect of the downtown that is vital in the restoration efforts of the community. The STAR Team has committees devoted to addressing each of the four points. The program is administered by the Indiana Office of Community and Rural Affairs.

KENDALLVILLE — Police cited a driver for having no insurance following a collision Tuesday on U.S. 6 at the Main Street intersection. A 2013 Ford F-150 pickup truck, driven by Tim Kochanski, 52, of rural Kendallville, was westbound approaching the Main Street intersection. Kochanski told police he changed lanes and his struck a 1995 Ford Taurus, driven by Ashley N. Acker, 27, of the 300 block of Ashton Drive, Kendallville. The Taurus left the scene. Kochanski followed the vehicle to the Carriage House Apartments on Angling Road, and described to police the damage, according to a Kendallville police news release. Kendallville police officer Nathaniel L. Stahl investigated and located Acker who admitted she was driving the car when the collision occurred. She left the scene because she thought the pickup truck left the area. No injuries were reported. Acker was cited for having no insurance. Police estimated the damage at $1,000 to $2,500.

Both Steuben, LaGrange need HR professionals We have to hand it to our county officials from Steuben and LaGrange counties. They are being creative, particularly when it comes to resources and the sharing thereof. Earlier this year Steuben County Community Corrections was approached with the idea of taking in LaGrange County to administer a similar program. There was a good model working in Steuben and the ability to run a similar program for LaGrange was broached and now is in the process of being implemented. In a similar vein — as a way to share resources and save money — 10 county officials, five each from both counties, started discussing the possibility of hiring a human resources manager to serve both counties on Tuesday. While we commend the counties for making such a move, we have a difficult time seeing how this will be a practical solution for the human resources needs for the two counties. “We’re at the doorstep, or right in that room,” said Jac Price, president of the LaGrange County Board of Commissioners. “Our two counties work well together. I think it’s a good fit,” said Loretta Smart, a Steuben County commissioner. How the two counties currently handle their human resources issues points to a potential problem to having a shared HR staffer. Price said LaGrange’s HR issues are handled by a combination of a county-appointed HR committee, contracted HR advisers and lawyers from a Fort Wayne law firm, and he believes the process could be streamlined, saving money for each county. Steuben County has some of its HR functions handled by its payroll clerk. Others are deferred to the county attorney. There is a personnel committee, but it mainly acts as an executive body, not one that deals with day-to-day HR issues. Unlike a corrections program where laws and rules would be hard and fast, dealing with HR in two counties would pose a number of challenges. It is doubtful the two counties share the same work rules. The counties more than likely have different merit programs that reward employees for longevity. There most likely would be differences in insurance policies. The sheriff’s departments could have programs, like supplemental retirement accounts, that would differ. There might be numerous differences between the two counties that could keep the head of the best HR professional spinning. While not impossible — it could be similar to a union shop where there are differing rules for the rank and file and the salaried office personnel — having one HR person for two counties would not be much different than two similar but unrelated companies sharing such a staff person. Again, though not impossible, this person would be dealing with issues in offices some 40 miles apart, and due to the nature of government, possibly at all times of the day. For many people in Steuben and LaGrange counties, learning that neither had an actual HR person on staff was a bit surprising. This is particularly so when you consider these two counties employ in the range of 500 between the two. The group spent nearly half of its hour-long meeting discussing credentials they thought an HR professional would need to meet the demands of the job. We believe the discussion should be about each county hiring its own HR person. This is a very important area that needs to be addressed, one that is long overdue.

A religious icon remains encased amid the rubble in Bohol province in central Philippines Wednesday, a day after a 7.2-magnitude quake hit Bohol and Cebu provinces. The quake that struck the central Philippines and killed more than a hundred people also dealt a serious blow to the region’s historical and religious legacy by heavily damaging a dozen or more churches, some of them hundreds of years old.
Central Philippine earthquake damages historic churches LOON, Philippines (AP) — The earthquake that struck the central Philippines and killed at least 144 people also dealt a serious blow to the region’s historical and religious legacy by heavily damaging a dozen or more churches, some of them hundreds of years old. As rescuers reached some of the hardest-hit areas on Wednesday and the death toll from the quake a day earlier continued to rise, images of the wrecked religious buildings resonated across a nation where 80 percent of the population is Roman Catholic. The bell tower toppled from Cebu city’s 16th-century Basilica of the Holy Child — a remnant of the Spanish colonial era and the country’s oldest church building — becoming a pile of rubble in the courtyard. Other churches on the neighboring island of Bohol, epicenter of the quake and a popular tourist destination known for its beaches, were also damaged, some beyond repair. “The heritage old churches are also very close to the hearts of the Boholanos,” said Bohol Gov. Edgardo Chatto, using the term for residents of the island. He said authorities would attempt to restore the historic churches, but some may never return to their former state. “Every piece of the church should be left untouched so that restoration efforts can be easier,” he said. “It may not be a total restoration, but closest to what it used to be before.” The back, front and the right wing of the church were destroyed.

The structure is said to be made from corals cemented together with egg white. Tuesday was a national holiday in the Philippines celebrating the Muslim feast of Eid ul Adha, which meant some of the most damaged structures, like schools and office buildings, were empty when the quake struck, which saved many lives. “That is our only consolation,” said Bohol provincial health officer Reymoses Cabagnot. Gay Flores had just woken up in her two-story house in the town of Carmen when the 7.2-magnitude quake struck at 8:15 a.m., sending shock waves across the picturesque island —and knocking her off her feet. “I crawled down to our kitchen because my mother and nephews were there,” she said. “Then we crawled out of the house.” The roof of their house had caved in and the cement walls had collapsed, but she was alive, and so were her parents. “We left everything behind,” Flores said by phone from the Bohol town of Carmen. “Belongings don’t matter as long as we can save our lives.” A day after the quake, Gov. Chatto said that all towns in need had been reached, although landslides and damaged bridges were slowing down road travel. Only two of the island’s 20 bridges were passable. “The towns that needed help have been reached. The most heavily hit in terms of casualties was the town of Loon, and there are still ongoing processes there, of recovery,” he said.

No bid for less than 99.0% of the face value of the Bonds will be considered. The Bonds will be awarded to the highest qualified bidder who has submitted a bid in accordance herewith. The highest bidder will be the one who offers the lowest net interest cost to the Library, to be determined by computing the total interest on all of the Bonds to their maturities based upon the schedules provided by the Library prior to the sale and deducting therefrom the premium bid, if any, and adding thereto the discount bid, if any. No conditional bids will be considered. The right is reserved to reject any and all bids. If an acceptable bid is not received for the Bonds on the date of sale hereinbefore fixed,
the sale may be continued from day to day thereafter, during which time no bids for less than the highest bid received at the time of the advertised sale will be considered. Each bid must be submitted on a customary bid form, addressed to the Library, and marked "Bid for Ligonier Public Library General Obligation Bonds of 2013". The successful bidder (the "Purchaser") will be notified and instructed to submit a good faith deposit ("Deposit") in the form of cash, certified or cashier's check or wire transfer in the amount of one percent of the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds. If a check is submitted, it shall be drawn on a bank or trust company which is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and shall be submitted to the Library (or wire transfer such amount as instructed by the Library) by the Purchaser not later than 3:30 p.m. (EST) on the next business day following the award. If such Deposit is not received by that time, the Library may reject the bid. No interest on the Deposit will accrue to the Purchaser. The Deposit will be applied to the purchase price of the Bonds. In the event the Purchaser fails to honor its accepted bid, the Deposit will be retained by the Library as liquidated damages. The Purchaser shall make payment for the Bonds in Federal Reserve funds to the registrar (the "Registrar") for the Bonds and accept delivery thereof from the Registrar within five (5) days after being notified that the Bonds are ready for delivery. It is anticipated that the Bonds will be ready for delivery within thirty (30) days after the date of sale. If the Library fails to have the Bonds ready for delivery prior to the close of banking hours on the forty fifth (45th) day after the date of sale, the bidder may secure the release of his bid upon request in writing, filed with the Library. The Purchaser is expected to apply to a securities depository registered with the SEC to make such Bonds depository eligible. At the time of delivery of the Bonds to the Purchaser, the Purchaser will be required to certify to the Library the initial reoffering price to the public of a substantial amount of each maturity of the Bonds. The Bonds may be initially issued by way of a Book Entry Only system with no physical distribution of bond certificates made to the public. In this case, one bond certificate in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of The Depository Trust Company, New York, New York (“DTC”), and immobilized in its custody. The Purchaser, as a condition of delivery of the Bonds, may be required to deposit the bond certificates with DTC, registered in the name of Cede & Co., nominee of DTC. It is anticipated that CUSIP identification numbers will be printed on the Bonds, but neither the failure to print such numbers on any Bond nor any error with respect thereto shall constitute cause for failure or refusal by the Purchaser therefore to accept delivery of and pay for the Bonds in accordance with the terms of its bid. No CUSIP identification number shall be deemed to be a part of any Bond or a part of the contract evidenced thereby and no liability shall hereafter attach to the Library or any of its officers or agents because of or on account of such numbers. All expenses in relation to the printing of CUSIP identification numbers on the Bonds shall be paid for by the Library; provided, however, that the CUSIP Service Bureau charge for the assignment of said numbers shall be the responsibility of and shall be paid for by the Purchaser. The Purchaser will also be responsible for any other fees or expenses it incurs in connection with the resale of the Bonds. The approving opinion of Beers Mallers Backs & Salin, LLP, bond counsel of LaGrange, Indiana, together with a transcript of the proceedings relating to the issuance of the Bonds and closing papers in the usual form showing no litigation questioning the validity of the Bonds, will be furnished to the Purchaser at the expense of the Library. The Bonds are being issued under the provisions of I.C. §36 12-3-9. The Bonds are being issued for the purpose of procuring funds to be used to finance the acquisition, construction, extension, alteration, improvement, remodeling, and equipping of an addition to and renovation of the Library and the related incidental expenses to be incurred in connection therewith and on account of the issuance of the Bonds. The Bonds will be direct obligations of the
Library payable out of ad valorem taxes to be collected on the taxable property within the district of the Library; however, the Library's collection of the levy may be limited by operation of I.C. §6-1.1-20.6, which provides taxpayers with tax credits for property taxes attributable to different classes of property in an amount that exceeds certain percentages of gross assessed value of that property. The Library is required by law to fully fund the payment of debt service on the Bonds in an amount sufficient to pay the debt service, regardless of any reduction in property tax collections due to the application of such tax credits. The Library may not be able to levy or collect additional property taxes to make up this short fall. In the opinion of bond counsel, under the federal statutes, decisions, regulations and rulings existing on this date, the interest on the Bonds is excludable from gross income for purposes of federal income taxation. The Bonds constitute an indebtedness only of the Library. The Bonds are subject to the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 as in effect on the date of their issuance (“Code”) which imposes limitations on the issuance of obligations like the Bonds under federal tax law. The Library has covenanted to comply with those limitations to the extent required to preserve the exclusion of interest on the Bonds from gross income for federal income tax purposes. The Library has designated the Bonds for purposes of Section 265(b)(3) of the Code to qualify for the $10,000,000 annual exception from 100% disallowance, in the case of banks and other financial institutions, of the deduction for interest expense allocable to tax-exempt obligations. The Library has authorized the preparation of an Official Statement relating to the Bonds which will be in a form deemed to be a nearly final official statement. A copy of the Official Statement may be obtained from Jerry Nesbitt, Director at Ligonier Public Library, 300 S. Main St., Ligonier, IN 46767, (260) 894-4511 or in limited quantities prior to submission of a bid by request from the Library's financial advisor. Within seven (7) business days of the sale, the Library will provide the Purchaser with up to fifteen (15) copies of the final Official Statement at the Library's expense. Additional copies, at the Purchaser's expense, must be requested within five (5) business days of the sale. Inquiries concerning matters contained in the nearly final Official Statement must be made and pricing and other information necessary to complete the final Official Statement must be submitted by the Purchaser within two (2) business days following the sale to be included in the final Official Statement. The Library has agreed to enter into a Continuing Disclosure Undertaking in order to permit the successful purchaser to comply with the SEC Rule 15(c)2 12. A description of this undertaking is set forth in the near final Official Statement and will also be set forth in the final Official Statement. The Continuing Disclosure Undertaking will be executed and delivered by the Library at the closing of the issuance of the Bonds. Further information relative to said issue and a copy of the nearly final Official Statement may be obtained upon application to H.J. Umbaugh & Associates, Certified Public Accountants, LLP, 8365 Keystone Crossing, Suite 300, Indianapolis, Indiana 46240, financial advisor to the Library.

off the table. It’s time to restore some sanity to this place.” U.S. Rep. Marlin Stutzman, R-3rd, of Howe, voted against the bill. “Hoosier families are struggling under the weight of Obamacare’s job-killing mandates and the nation’s crushing $17 trillion debt. This bill does nothing to provide relief of those issues or end special treatment for Members of Congress under Obamacare, and therefore I will oppose it,” Stutzman said in a news release before the vote. U.S. Sens. Dan Coats, R-Ind., and Joe Donnelly, D-Ind., voted for the bill in the Senate. “While I deplore supporting yet another short-term Band-Aid, the only thing worse would be a continued government shutdown, the United States defaulting on its debt obligations and the elimination of the spending reductions enacted by Congress in 2011,” Coats said. The stock market surged higher at the prospect of an end to the crisis that also had threatened to shake confidence in the U.S.
economy overseas. Republicans conceded defeat after a long struggle. “We fought the good fight. We just didn’t win,” conceded House Speaker John Boehner as lawmakers lined up to vote on a bill that includes nothing for GOP lawmakers who had demand to eradicate or scale back Obama’s signature health care overhaul. “The compromise we reached will provide our economy with the stability it desperately needs,” said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, declaring that the nation “came to the brink of disaster” before sealing an agreement. Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell, who negotiated the deal with Reid, emphasized that it preserved a round of spending cuts negotiated two years ago with Obama and Democrats. As a result, he said, “government spending has declined for two years in a row” for the first time since the Korean War. “And we’re not going back on this agreement,” he added. Only a temporary truce, the measure set a time frame of early next winter for the
next likely clash between Obama and the Republicans over spending and borrowing. But for now, government was lurching back to life. In one example, officials met to discuss plans for gearing back up at the Department of Housing and Urban Development, where 307 employees remained at work during the partial shutdown and more than 8,000 were furloughed. After weeks of gridlock, the measure had support from the White House, most if not all Democrats in Congress and many Republicans fearful of the economic impact of a default. Boehner and the rest of the top GOP leadership told their rank and file they would vote for the measure, and there was little or no doubt it would pass both houses and reach the White House in time for Obama’s signature before the administration’s 11:59 p.m. Oct. 17 deadline. That was when Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew said the government would reach the current $16.7 trillion debt limit and could no longer borrow to meet its obligations.

one day … a couple of weeks ago.” Sills once became stuck on the railroad tracks in Albion, but someone pushed him to safety, said another longtime friend, Lisa Lash Boller of Kendallville. Sills also was hit by a car while crossing a street in Albion, where he lived a few years ago before returning to Kendallville around 2010, Boller said.
“Ray had nine lives. He really did,” Boller said. Sills’ blonde hair, tanned face and witty, curmudgeonly nature made him a familiar fixture in Kendallville, his friends said. He grew up in the city and graduated from East Noble High School. “If Ray could be outside, he would be outside,” Boller said. Though he lived in the Lamplighter apartments at the north edge of the city, he would travel more than
a mile to the south edge of downtown to buy soda at a better price. In his travels, Sills made friends such as Meyer, who encountered him when she was walking her dog. “He was one of those guys that he just kind of grew on you. It was really hard not to get attached to him,” Meyer said. “Under a rough facade, he was pretty caring. He would always give you good advice or just give you
an ear, just listen to you talk about your problems.” “If he was grouchy at you, and you were grouchy back, he thrived on that,” Boller said. “Ray had so many friends and so many people who loved him, and he never even realized it,” Boller added. Now, she said, “They need to celebrate Ray and who he was and how well-loved he was.”

The 30-year average for snowfall in northeast Indiana in October is less than a half-inch. AccuWeather.com is predicting that there could be some frost — more accurately, snow — on those Halloween pumpkins. Through nearly the end of October, the waves of colder air will keep coming from Central Canada and will make more progress to the south and east around the Great Lakes region. From Minnesota to Michigan this weekend, temperatures can dip near to below freezing at times during the daylight hours, after including wind, actual temperature, precipitation and other factors.

Weather Bug is calling for a possibility of snow next Thursday in northeast Indiana. It is not unusual for a small amount snow to fall in the vicinity the Great Lakes and Appalachians during the second half of October.

Witnesses told police the crossing gates were down, red signals were flashing and a bell was ringing indicating an approaching train when Sills attempted to cross the tracks. Kendallville Police and

said. They also are all too frequently the only constant in the lives of the children they serve, she said. Phillips said that, when she was asked to get involved with CASA, she looked up what it was online and learned it was a not-for-profit group working on behalf of children in the courts, but she’s since learned its much more. “CASA, for me, is a tireless and passionate executive director who lives her job 24-7,” Phillips said. Bachman is committed to meeting the needs of each child, and has a staff and volunteers who are as committed as she is. At the CASA National Conference, Phillips said she heard stories of the victims of emotional, physical and sexual abuse being removed
from the only homes they knew. “They just knew that they were being taken away, and they were so alone,” she said. From foster home to foster home, the one constant presence for these young people was their CASA, Phillips said. In Noble, LaGrange, DeKalb, Steuben and Whitley counties, CASAs protect the most valuable, most precious resource there, — the children, Phillips said. There are 40 volunteers locally and all are superheroes, Bachman said. She read from a poem by Belinda Wilson: “You don’t wear a mask or cape/You don’t wear any special disguise/But to the children you champion for/ You’re truly superheroes in their eyes.”

Stowaway taken away from parents MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — A 9-year-old who eluded airport security and stowed away on a flight from Minneapolis to Las Vegas should live away from his parents for now while he and his family get therapy and other services, a judge ruled Wednesday. Hennepin County District Judge Joseph Klein granted the county’s petition to declare the boy a “child in need of protection or services,” starting the protection process under court supervision. He also ordered individual therapy for the boy and family therapy for his parents while county and
school officials work with them to determine what kind of help the boy needs. Klein also granted the parents liberal visitation privileges. Exactly where the boy is staying was left unclear. The judge and attorneys referred only to an “out-ofhome placement” and did not discuss when he might return home. After the hearing, county officials declined to be more specific, saying simply that the boy was safe. “She wants to get her family back together and have her son returned home,” said Robert Paule, the mother’s lawyer.
Are hard-liners heroes or fools for refusing to budge? WASHINGTON (AP) — Fool’s errand or heroic stand? The bipartisan compromise on Wednesday to avoid a financial default and end a 16-day partial government shutdown cast a spotlight on Sens. Ted Cruz of Texas and Mike Lee of Utah, who had precipitated the crises with their demand that President Barack Obama gut his 3-year-old health care law. Senate Republicans who repeatedly had warned the two about their quixotic move took little pleasure in saying “I-told-you-so.” The final deal hardly nicked the health care law while the shutdown and near default left the GOP reeling.
“Our numbers have gone down, Obamacare’s somehow mysteriously have gone up. And other than that, this has been great,” said Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., with a heavy dose of gallows humor. “The way we’re behaving and the path we’ve taken in the last couple of weeks leads to a marginalized party in the eyes of the American people.” Cruz, a freshman who engaged in a 21-hour talkathon and egged on House Republicans for the fight, was unapologetic. “This battle will continue to provide real relief for the millions of Americans who are hurting, who right now still don’t have a voice in
the United States Senate,” said Cruz, surrounded by a pack of reporters. His defiance has been wildly cheered by outside conservative groups that have made money on the months-long dispute and the far right flank that hails Cruz and Lee for what they call a principled, courageous stand. Cruz, a potential presidential candidate in 2016, has seized the headlines and collected nearly $800,000 for his political action committee in the past three months. “I think Ted Cruz and Mike Lee did exactly the job that those of us who helped them get elected” wanted them to do, said Drew Ryun of the Madison
Project, one of the first conservative organizations to back Cruz last year in his long-shot Senate bid. Among Senate Republicans, Cruz and Lee are near pariahs, publicly slammed for a tactic that has taken a heavy toll on the GOP’s standing and privately criticized for helping outside groups targeting Republican incumbents before next year’s congressional elections. The latest Washington Post-ABC News poll showed three-quarters of Americans disapproving of the way congressional Republicans were handling the budget. “What did I say three weeks ago, what did I say a
month ago, it was a fool’s errand,” said Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., waving a copy of the latest poll for reporters clustered in the Senate basement earlier this week. “I knew that it was going to be a disaster and it is a disaster.” Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, a fierce opponent of the health care law, called the effort to unravel the law a “fantasy.” Compromise has never been part of the vocabulary for Lee, who was elected in 2010, and Cruz, a member of the Senate for some 10 months. The two have been relegated to the sidelines during the Senate negotiations. Neither was part of a bipartisan group that
jump-started talks. The two even skipped Tuesday’s weekly closed-door Republican luncheon. Further riling the GOP is the reality that shutdown and the default threat have overshadowed the problemplagued rollout of the health care markets on Oct. 1 despite Republican efforts to highlight the programs’ woes. In private, Republicans have been dismissive and confrontational with Cruz, according to lawmakers and congressional aides. At one meeting, Cruz presented his own poll numbers and argued that Republicans weren’t suffering despite the overwhelming evidence suggesting they were.

Barons blank Bellmont VanWye scores twice to lead DeKalb to regional final match BY PHIL FRIEND pfriend@kpcmedia.com
KENDALLVILLE — If the players on the DeKalb girls soccer team were nervous playing in their first-ever regional game Wednesday night against Bellmont, the Barons certainly didn’t show it. DeKalb scored three second-half goals, two from senior Madison VanWye, to break open a close match as the Barons defeated their Northeast Hoosier Conference rival 4-0 in the Class 2A East Noble Regional semifinal. “They never give up. They have hearts of champions,” said DeKalb coach Sam Weicht about his Barons. “I can’t say anything bad about Bellmont. Steve (Lee) did a great job with those girls down there. They pushed us to the brink in the regular season and it was nothing different (Wednesday night).” DeKalb (17-2) plays Homestead (14-2-4) in the regional championship at 1 p.m. Saturday. The Spartans defeated Carroll 1-0. The Barons took a 1-0 lead in the 16th minute thanks to the right foot of sophomore Andrea

again Wednesday. After a Bellmont player was called for a handball, Oster stepped up a hit the free kick from 20 yards
out. DeKalb was on the front foot for much of the first half, but only managed that one goal as
the Squaws (12-7) tried to stay in the match. It didn’t take long for the Barons to stretch the lead to two goals in the second half. In the 42nd minute, VanWye took the pass from Alyson Noye, created some space in the box and shot it past goalkeeper Victoria Smitley. It was certainly a satisfying goal for the senior midfielder/forward, who hit the woodwork twice in the first half. “We were possessing the ball, playing smart and playing a good half of soccer,” Weicht said. “We just didn’t hit the back of the net. At halftime we talked about how Bellmont’s going to come out strong and we’ve got to respond. The want it just as bad as we do. Maddie came back with a really nice one.” Nine minutes later, VanWye struck again to push DeKalb’s lead to 3-0, scoring with an assist from junior Taya Poynter. Poynter got a goal off her own in the 79th minute, beating a Bellmont defender to a through-ball from Oster, and calmly put the strike in the back of the net. SEE BARONS, PAGE B2
L.A. Dodgers stay alive in NLCS LOS ANGELES (AP) — Adrian Gonzalez homered twice and Zack Greinke gave the Los Angeles Dodgers the clutch performance they needed in a 6-4 victory over the Cardinals on Wednesday that trimmed St. Louis’ lead to 3-2 in the NL championship series. Carl Crawford and A.J. Ellis also went deep for the Dodgers, who rediscovered their power stroke just in time to save their season. They held on in the ninth inning, when St. Louis scored twice off closer Kenley Jansen before he struck out pinch-hitter Adron Chambers with two on to end it. The best-of-seven series shifts back to St. Louis for Game 6 on Friday night, with ace Clayton Kershaw scheduled to start for the Dodgers against rookie Michael Wacha. When those two squared off in Game 2, the Cardinals won 1-0 on an unearned run. “This series is only getting started,” Gonzalez said. “We like where we’re at.” Desperate to avoid elimination, the Dodgers brought in some Hollywood star power for pregame introductions. Will Ferrell announced their lineup and lent a comic spin to each player’s name, capping it by introducing Greinke as “today’s winning pitcher.”
Ferrell knew what he was talking about. Greinke got into a bases-loaded jam with none out in the first inning but escaped with no damage. From there, he pitched seven strong innings and even delivered an RBI single. The Cardinals also led last year’s NLCS 3-1 before losing three straight games to the eventual World Series champion San Francisco Giants. “We’re looking to do the same thing,” Gonzalez said. The Dodgers rallied in this one after Greinke gave up an early 2-0 lead just as he did in Game 1, which Los Angeles lost 3-2 in 13 innings on the road. After neither team homered in the first three games for the first time in NLCS history, the big bats came out. The Cardinals used a two-run homer by Matt Holliday and a solo shot from pinch-hitter Shane Robinson to win 4-2 on Tuesday night. This time, Gonzalez went 3 for 4 with two solo homers. His two-out shot in the eighth made it 6-2. The Cardinals tied it at 2 in the third on Carlos Beltran’s RBI triple and Holliday’s run-scoring double before Yadier Molina grounded into his second inningending double play.

Los Angeles Dodgers’ Adrian Gonzalez is congratulated in the dugout after hitting a home run during the third inning of Game 5 of the National League baseball championship series against the St. Louis Cardinals on Wednesday in Los Angeles.
Los Angeles answered in the bottom half. Mark Ellis singled leading off but was erased when Hanley Ramirez grounded into a double play. Gonzalez followed with the
Dodgers’ first homer of the NLCS, slugging the ball an estimated 428 feet into the right-field pavilion for a 3-2 lead. As he headed toward the SEE NLCS, PAGE B2
Peyton no comment on Irsay ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — Thanks to the musings of his former owner, Peyton Manning’s return to Indianapolis this week has turned into something less than the warm-and-fuzzy homecoming it could have been. If any of that bothers No. 18, it’s not showing. Dictating the terms of his Wednesday news conference as effectively as he orchestrates his offense from the line of scrimmage, Manning paid virtually no heed to this week’s comments from Colts owner Jim Irsay, while heaping plenty of praise on his former team and its fans. “I don’t have an answer for you on that, or any comment on that,” was Manning’s response to the first, predictable question of his news conference — the one asking for reaction to Irsay’s comments about giving up the old Indy
offense’s “Star Wars” numbers in a quest for more Super Bowl rings. As for his 14 years in Indianapolis and the bittersweet parting Irsay engineered after Manning missed the 2011 season with shoulder and neck problems — well, Manning has no regrets. “I’ve learned that in life you need to be at peace with other people’s decisions that affect you that you have no control over,” he said. “That’s good advice I’ve had over the years and it’s certainly served me well in this particular scenario.” Earlier this week, Irsay talked to USA Today about Manning’s tenure in Indianapolis, which produced one title, another trip to the Super Bowl, 11 playoff appearances but seven one-and-done postseasons. “That leaves you
frustrated,” Irsay said. “You make the playoffs 11 times, and you’re out in the first round seven out of 11 times. You love to have the ‘Star Wars’ numbers from Peyton and Marvin (Harrison) and Reggie (Wayne). Mostly, you love” winning Super Bowls. That triggered a strong response from the usually bland Broncos coach, John Fox, who on his national radio show Tuesday called Irsay’s comments a cheap shot that was “disappointing and inappropriate.” Others chimed in, including Tony Dungy, Fran Tarkenton, Manning’s former college teammate Todd Helton and his former general manager Bill Polian, all of them taking Manning’s side in one way or another. With that, the game that was supposed to be a Manning love fest suddenly felt like something much different.

dugout, Gonzalez cupped his hands to his ears and wiggled them in a gesture resembling mouse ears. It was an apparent tweak at Cardinals pitcher Adam Wainwright, who said Gonzalez had done “some Mickey Mouse stuff” in celebrating a double on Monday night. The Dodgers are trying to become the 12th team to rally from a 3-1 deficit to win a best-of-seven series. After wriggling out of big trouble in the first when Molina bounced into a double play, Greinke allowed two runs and six hits. He struck out four and walked one. “He made his pitches, we made the plays, got out of it,” Gonzalez said. “We
were able to get run support for him. All he needed was a few runs.” Jansen gave up RBI singles to Matt Adams and Pete Kozma in the ninth. A.J. Ellis homered in seventh, sending an 0-2 pitch from Edward Mujica into the left-field pavilion to make it 5-2. Crawford homered with one out in the fifth, extending the Dodgers’ lead to 4-2. He walloped a 3-2 pitch from starter Joe Kelly an estimated 447 feet into the right-field pavilion. Kelly gave up four runs and seven hits in five innings, struck out three and walked none. Beltran’s triple went over the head of Andre Ethier and to the wall in center, scoring Matt Carpenter, who singled.

Defending Cup champion Brad Keselowski gets first win of 2013 with victory at Charlotte
Ryan Reed signs with Roush Fenway Racing for 2014 Nationwide Series
For the 2013 season, David Ragan, driving for a Front Row Racing team that has far fewer resources than the sport’s powerhouse teams, has an average finish of 26.3, with just one top-10 finish so far. But that one top-10 was a big one — a dramatic victory at Talladega Superspeedway back in May. In that race, Ragan used a push from his teammate David Gilliland to surge into the lead on the last lap and score his second 'DYLG 5DJDQ FDSWXUHG WKH FKHFNHUHG ÁDJ career Cup victory. at Talladega in May. As Ragan and the circuit return to Talladega this weekend, he said another David versus Goliath scenario isn’t out of the question. He said that the nature of restrictor-plate racing and the effects of the draft take away many of the advantages enjoyed by the bigger teams at other tracks. “Racing at Daytona and Talladega requires a different style to get to the front,” he said. “It’s all about getting to those last 10 laps or so with your car in good shape and a good plan of attack.” Ragan, whose other Cup victory came at Daytona in 2011 aboard a RoushFenway Racing Ford, said he and his No. 34 Ford are ready for another try at Talladega. “We’re running the same car,” he said. “We didn’t get any damage on it before, and we’ve been able to work on it and hopefully make it better.” Ragan’s Talladega win didn’t cause an immediate change in his racing fortunes. He and his team continue to work under the reduced expectations that come with running with fewer dollars than the competition. But it has had its rewards. “It validated the commitment of the sponsors we had, and it’s been a plus when it comes to sponsorship for the future,” Ragan said. “We expect to have an announcement on that in a few days.” And it has been something to savor over time. “When it happens, you’re thinking about the next race and how you’re going to approach it,” he said. “I’ve actually come to appreciate it more in the four or five months since then.”
Ryan Reed has signed on to drive the No. 16 Ford for Roush Fenway Racing full time next year in the Nationwide Series. He’ll do so with sponsorship from Lilly Diabetes, which is promoting the American Diabetes Association’s Drive to Stop Diabetes. It’s a fitting sponsorship as Reed, a 19-year-old short-track driver from Bakersfield, Calif., was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes in February 2011. “This has all the right parts, and to be included in that is unreal for me as a driver and someone living with diabetes,” Reed said. “I just want to play a small part in helping stop diabetes, and it means a lot to be here.” Reed said he understands that he’s a role model for others hoping to overcome medical challenges and Ryan Reed excel in sports. “I just want to drive race cars,” he said. “I want to stay healthy as a person, so I can compete at the highest level, and that’s what is important to me. I have such a passion for giving back and being that role model that I would never jeopardize it in a million years because it’s something that I’m blessed to have.” Reed has run four Nationwide races for Roush this season, with a best run of ninth at Richmond last month, and an average finish of 16.2.

Defending Talladega winner David Ragan uses a “different style to get to the front”
Darlington Raceway and Kansas Speedway, two tracks owned by International Speedway Corp., are switching race dates, with Darlington moving its lone Sprint Cup race from Mother’s Day weekend to April 11-12, and Kansas taking the Saturday night before Mother’s Day, May 10, beginning next season. “We’re making this change with the fan experience in mind,” Darlington President Chip Wile said in a release announcing the change. “We’ve always enjoyed the tradition of racing on Mother’s Day weekend, but sometimes a change like this is necessary. We have the opportunity to get a fresh start and embrace a new date on the NASCAR calendar.” Wile, who recently took his post at Darlington, went on to say that South Carolina’s weather is typically more favorable for racing than the conditions in May. “The average temperature in April 2013 was 75.2 degrees, with May’s average at 81 degrees,” he said. Kansas also will host the Hollywood Casino 400 on Sunday, Oct. 5, 2014.
Vickers out again due to health issues For the second time in the past three years, Brian Vickers has had to step away from NASCAR racing because of blood clots. Vickers’ Michael Waltrip Racing team announced on Monday Brian Vickers that the 29-year-old driver will miss the remainder of the 2013 season after Dr. William Downey placed him on blood-thinning medication. The decision was made after a Monday morning examination during which the doctor discovered a clot in the calf region of Vickers’ right leg. Vickers said in a team release that his physicians are confident he will be able to resume activity before the 2014 NASCAR Sprint Cup season begins. “If there’s anything to be positive about with today’s news, it’s that this is only a temporary setback,” he said. “The timing for this is never good, but I’m glad we’ll get it out of the way now and be ready to run for a championship with the Aaron’s Dream Machine in 2014.” Team co-owner Michael Waltrip already was set to drive the No. 55 Aaron’s Dream Machine at Talladega Superspeedway this weekend, and a replacement driver for the remainder of Cup drivers who Laps led the the season isinexpected toSprint be named later. won a race in 2012 but past 17 Sprint Cup Vickers run 17 Cup races seahave yet tothis win this raceshas at Talladega son; he hasbya Matt win at New Hampshire season: Denny Hamlin, Superspeedway Earnhardt Jr., Jeff Kenseth, among drivers.

cream of the crop,” Keselowski said. “That’s how, obviously, they would make it in the Chase, and they should win races, and probably sweep the Chase, but this is a very good team.” He pointed out that his team has had a number of misfortunes this season, which kept him out of the top 13. “But along the way, all season long, we’ve had the speed, we’ve had what we need to be a championship team, we just haven’t put them all together,” he said. “All the pieces haven’t come together on the nights that count, and they did, for the most part [at Charlotte].” He did have one close call on Saturday, when the jack became stuck under his car after an early pit stop Brad Keselowski celebrates in Victory Lane at and he had to return to the pits and have it removed, which put him 35th Charlotte Motor Speedway. came at the expense of Johnson, who was in the running order at that point. “There have been weeks where we’ve had cruising at the head of the pack when a caution flag for debris allowed the leadthe speed and execution and we’ve just ers to pit and gave Keselowski a chance had some rotten luck,” he said. “It’s just to win.

Defending Sprint Cup champion Brad Keselowski finally got his first Cup win of the 2013 season, as he bounced back from an early pit miscue to race past Kasey Kahne with nine laps remaining and win Saturday’s Bank of America 500 at Charlotte Motor Speedway. The victory, the 10th of Keselowski’s Cup career, came too late to help him in the championship hunt, as he missed the cut for the Chase for the Sprint Cup. He and Tony Stewart, in 2005-06, are the only two drivers in the history of the Chase to win the championship one year and fail to make the Chase the following year. Keselowski’s victory also put him in rather select company, as he’s now one of just 11 non-Chase drivers to win a Chase race since the new championship format was adopted in 2004. It’s happened a total of 16 times, and the last to do it before Keselowski was Kahne, at Phoenix in 2011. Behind Keselowski on the track at Charlotte and far ahead of him in the points standings, the top two championship contenders, Matt Kenseth and Jimmie Johnson, battled to a virtual tie, with Kenseth finishing third and Johnson fourth. As the Chase heads into its sixth race, at Talladega Superspeedway on Sunday, Kenseth leads Johnson by four points, with Kevin Harvick a fairly distant third, 29 points out of the lead. But for Keselowski, it was a win that showed that his No. 2 Ford team is one of the sport’s elite, even if it’s not among the current championship contenders. “The perception is, and rightfully so, that the guys that are in the Chase are the

SPORTS BRIEFS • Lions’ Suh to be fined again ALLEN PARK, Mich. (AP) — A person familiar with the decision tells The Associated Press the NFL has fined Detroit Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh $31,500 for a hit on Cleveland Browns quarterback Brandon Weeden. The person spoke Wednesday on condition of anonymity because the fine had not been announced. Earlier in the day, Ndamukong Suh insisted he was unaware the NFL was reviewing his hit on Weeden on Sunday. Suh wasn’t penalized for the play, but it was shown on a video posted on NFL. com as vice president of officiating Dean Blandino said he wanted to look at it more for “potential helmet to the body.” Suh was fined $100,000 for an illegal block on Minnesota center John Sullivan in Week 1.
Freeman to start for Vikings EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. (AP) — Josh Freeman will be the starting quarterback for the Minnesota Vikings on Monday night against the New York Giants. Vikings coach Leslie Frazier made the announcement after practice on Wednesday. Frazier also said that Christian Ponder will be the backup, not Matt Cassel, assuming Freeman makes it through the week without problems. “I like the things he’s done in his career, along with what he’s done since he arrived here with our football team, the time he put in, how well he’s adapted to our system,” Frazier said. “He’s done enough for us to say we want to give him this opportunity, which is something we had in mind when we acquired him. I think now is the time. Our coaching staff is going to do a great job in preparing him, making sure we have a game plan that will allow him to be successful and allow our team to be successful.” Freeman will be the third starter in the last four games for the Vikings (1-4). He was cut by Tampa Bay on Oct. 3 and signed by Minnesota to a one year contract five days later. Freeman started 59 games over four-plus seasons with the Buccaneers. The 25-year-old former first-round draft pick threw for 25 touchdowns and just six interceptions in 2010, his first full season as a starter, but has been up and down since. Frazier said he was impressed by Freeman’s first practice with the team. “The way he functioned that day, it was far different than what I expected, than what any of our coaches expected,” Frazier said. “But he had worked hard once he arrived. From the moment he stepped in the building, he wanted to learn. And the way he handled himself in that practice, it changed my mindset about the possibilities.”
Bourdais signs with KVSH BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Four-time series champion Sebastien Bourdais has signed a two-year deal with KVSH Racing to replace Indianapolis 500 winner Tony Kanaan. The contract confirmed to The Associated Press on Wednesday gives team principals Kevin Kalkhoven, Jimmy Vasser and James “Sulli” Sullivan hope that KVSH can compete for titles going forward now that it has a driver that is tied for second with Mario Andretti and Dario Franchitti for series championships. Kanaan won the Indianapolis 500 in May with KVSH, but decided to leave for Chip Ganassi Racing next year. KVSH acted fast in offering the same deal it offered Kanaan to three-race winner James Hinchcliffe, but the team gave Hinchcliffe a short deadline to accept the contract that did not require the driver to bring any sponsorship. When Hinchcliffe decided KVSH’s timeline was too fast, the team moved on to Bourdais, winner of four consecutive Champ Car titles from 2004 through 2007. Bourdais has 31 victories, tied with Franchitti and Paul Tracy for eighth on the wins list.
Dallas Cowboys release DT Ratliff after failed physical IRVING, Texas (AP) — Jay Ratliff’s mysterious and rapid decline with the Dallas Cowboys has ended with his release. The Cowboys unloaded the apparently disgruntled defensive tackle on Wednesday, saying he failed a physical after spending the first six weeks of the season on the physically unable to perform list. He was eligible to be activated this week. Ratliff missed the last six games of 2012 with a groin injury that required surgery. The four-time Pro Bowler injured his hamstring during the conditioning test before training camp in July and never practiced for the Cowboys this season. The ninth-year pro wasn’t seen by reporters in the locker room all season after hinting there was tension with the Dallas medical staff, and agent Mark Slough said his relationship with team doctors was “strained.” But Ratliff tried to put a happy face on his departure in a statement issued by Slough, thanking “the best fans in the NFL” and giving owner Jerry Jones credit for “taking a chance” on a seventh-round pick from 2005 who went to four straight Pro Bowls. “I have thoroughly enjoyed my time with the Cowboys and it was always my desire to begin and end my career here in Dallas,” Ratliff said. “But I understand this business and now it’s time to move on, turn the page and begin again.”

Deer tracking dogs can save the day Having to track a wounded deer with a dog combines deer hunting’s worst-case scenario with man’s best friend. In some states it is illegal, in others it is legal but only OUTDOORS done as a WITH DON charitable favor between Don Mulligan hunters, and in some places it is big business. In every case, it is a sight to behold and often the only way some deer are ever recovered. “The first thing you learn when you track as many deer as we do, is that all the old wives’ tales about what wounded deer do are nonsense,” said Ryan Rothhaar, Cloverdale, Ind. Rothhaar and his partner Katia track deer within an hour of their home every year at no charge using their professionally trained, four-year-old Standard European Dachshund, Oskar. “We have never tracked a wounded deer that went to water to die, for example,” he said. “Almost all of them simply go to a bedding area, whether they were shot in the morning or in the evening.” He also revealed that the majority of deer not recovered by hunters are shot too high in the deer’s

body. In this, and any other situation that requires a dog to find a wounded deer, Rothhaar has some advice to make success more likely. “Stay off the trail and call us immediately,” he said. In fact, most deer trackers prefer talking to hunters before season. There are situations they can help the hunter avoid which will make the odds of success a lot better. For example, even the best tracking dog has a tough time following a wounded deer from the point where hunters lost the trail. Rothhaar says that spot is like a “scent-bomb” to a tracking dog and prefers hunters don’t even follow a trail if they think they made a bad hit on a deer. “People wander all over in these spots trying to re-find the trail. They trample any deer scent and leave all kinds of foreign smells for the dog to sort out”, he said. “If we get past the scent-bomb spot and back on the trail, we are usually pretty successful at finding the deer, but it can be tough.” Not every wounded deer Rothhaar tracks is recovered or even dead, however. For this reason he doesn’t take any money for his services. Money makes him an employee of the hunter and he prefers reserving the right to decide if a hit was nonfatal. If no money changes hands, Rothhaar feels comfortable ending the search, regardless of the hunter’s opinion. Not all deer trackers work for free. Many accept
Hunters can help those who are hungry
This fall, some Hoosiers who need some help will be able to put more food on the table, thanks to deer hunters and the Indiana Department of Natural Resources Division of Law Enforcement’s Sportsman’s Benevolence Fund. The fund makes it possible for hunters to donate venison through a participating butcher by paying the processing fee. To participate, a licensed deer hunter must legally harvest a deer, field dress it and deliver it to a participating butcher. DON MULLIGAN “This program provides Katia Rothhaar and her tracking dog, Oskar, located this 171-inch Indiana buck after an opportunity for our hunters to demonstrate their the hunter lost the trail.

Baggage handler sets off bombs as prank at LAX
Enterprise renting motorcycles in Vegas LAS VEGAS (AP) — Enterprise Rent-A-Car is taking a leap into the motorcycle business with a new, Las Vegas-based fleet of Harley-Davidsons. The company better known for four-wheeled vehicles launched its two-wheeled line on Wednesday, marking the first time a major car rental company is offering motorcycles in the U.S. Enterprise Vice President Steve Short says the company started the pilot program in Sin City because it sees opportunity among tourists who want to venture out to attractions like Hoover Dam and the Grand Canyon. Customers can now rent five different Harley models from a new Enterprise branch on Flamingo Road. Two more models should be available by the end of November. Las Vegas visitors have long been able to rent motorcycles around the Strip, but this is the first time a major car rental company is offering them.
Four dead after boat capsizes near Florida MIAMI BEACH, Fla. (AP) — Ten people were found clinging to the hull of a small boat that capsized early Wednesday off South Florida, trapping the bodies of four dead women and one survivor in a tiny pocket of air beneath it. The fifteen people appeared to be making a perilous journey that thousands try each year. Migrants from Haiti, Cuba and other Caribbean countries routinely attempt to illegally enter the U.S. by reaching Florida’s coast in overloaded or unseaworthy vessels, often through established smuggling networks that include islands in the Bahamas and Turks and Caicos. Early Wednesday, one of the survivors called 911 on a cellphone, alerting authorities to their location seven miles east of Miami. “Sadly, and tragically, we did find four females, adults, underneath the boat that had perished,� said Coast Guard Cmdr. Darren Caprara. The survivor found when Coast Guard officials flipped over the boat was suffering seizures and he was taken by boat to a Miami Beach hospital, officials said.
People • Elton John AIDS group honors Hillary Clinton NEW YORK (AP) — Elton John honored Hillary Rodham Clinton for her work to help those affected by HIV and AIDS at an annual event for his foundation. Clinton was excited as she accepted the first founders award from the Elton John AIDS Foundation on Tuesday night in New York. The former secretary of Clinton state told the crowd at Cipriani’s restaurant that “we still have so far to goâ€? when it comes to helping those affected by HIV and AIDS. “There are so many challenges in front of us,â€? Clinton said. The former U.S. senator added that she wants to see an “AIDS-free generationâ€? and that accomplishing that must be “our North Star.â€? “I thank you, but I know there’s more for us to do,â€? she said. “Humans may discriminate, but viruses don’t.â€? Billy Joel, Alec Baldwin, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, Lisa Marie Presley and Courtney Love also attended John’s “An Enduring Vision: A Benefit for the Elton John AIDS Foundationâ€? event, which raised $3.45 million.

A woman looks at the aftermath of landslides in the rubble of smashed houses in Oshima after a powerful typhoon hit Izu Oshima island, about
75 miles south of Tokyo Wednesday. Typhoon Wipha triggered landslides and caused multiple deaths on the Japanese island.
Typhoon slams Japan with winds, mudslides TOKYO (AP) — A typhoon caused deadly mudslides that buried people and destroyed homes on a Japanese island Wednesday before sweeping up the Pacific coast, grounding hundreds of flights and disrupting Tokyo’s transportation during the morning rush. At least 17 deaths were reported and nearly 50 people were missing. Hardest hit from Typhoon Wipha was Izu Oshima island, which is about 75 miles south of Tokyo. Rescuers found 16 bodies, most of them buried by mudslides, police and town officials said. Dozens of homes were destroyed, and about 45 people were missing. A woman from Tokyo died after falling into a river and being washed
10 kilometers (6 miles) downriver to Yokohama, police said. Two sixth-grade boys and another person were missing on Japan’s main island, Honshu, the Fire and Disaster Management Agency said. More than 350 homes were damaged or destroyed, including 283 on Izu Oshima, it said. The typhoon, which stayed offshore in the Pacific, had sustained winds of 126 kilometers per hour (78 miles per hour), with gusts up to 180 kph (110 mph), before it was downgraded to a tropical storm Wednesday evening. The storm was moving northeast, off the northern Japanese island of Hokkaido. More than 80 centimeters (30 inches) of rain fell on Izu Oshima during a 24-hour period ending
Wednesday morning, the most since record-keeping began in 1991. The rainfall was particularly heavy before dawn, the kind in which “you can’t see anything or hear anything,� Japan Meteorological Agency official Yoshiaki Yano said. Izu Oshima is the largest island in the Izu chain southwest of Tokyo. It has one of Japan’s most active volcanoes, Mount Mihara, and is a major base for growing camellias. About 8,200 people live on the island, which is accessible by ferry from Tokyo. Yutaka Sagara, a 59-year-old sushi chef on the east coast of the island, said he spent a sleepless night with colleagues at their company housing.
Project aims to give women their due on Wikipedia PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) — Look up a female scientist or technologist on Wikipedia, and you might not find what you’re looking for. Many don’t have detailed pages or any page at all on the free online encyclopedia created by contributors, the vast majority of them men. It’s a symptom of a larger problem for women in so-called STEM fields — science, technology, engineering and mathematics — where men far outnumber women. Even women who have done pioneering work in these fields don’t always get recognition. Since 2009, no woman has won a Nobel Prize in science. A Brown University biology professor and an alumna hope to help chip away at the problem with a
LOS ANGELES (AP) — A baggage handler arrested after dry ice bombs exploded at Los Angeles International Airport planted the devices as a prank, police said Wednesday. The motive was disclosed a day after the arrest of Dicarlo Bennett, a 28-year-old employee for the ground handling company Servisair. “I think we can safely say he is not a terrorist or an organized crime boss. He did this for his own amusement,� said Los Angeles police Deputy Chief Michael Downing, who heads the department’s counter-terrorism and special operations bureau. No one was hurt on Sunday when two plastic bottles packed with dry ice exploded in an employee bathroom and on the airport’s tarmac. An unexploded device was
found Monday night. As a result of the incident, airport officials plan to meet with law enforcement authorities to examine potential security enhancements at the nation’s second-busiest airport. The meeting also will explore the handling and transport of dry ice and other hazardous materials and possible improvements to those procedures. Arif Alikhan, deputy executive director for Homeland Security and Law Enforcement at Los Angeles World Airports, said such meetings are routine after problems. “We’ll look at all layers of security existing at the airport, including technology, physical infrastructure, the partnership of tenants, awareness of employees to potential hazardous items like dry ice,� Alikhan said.
Suicide bomber kills 8 in Pakistan DERA ISMAIL KHAN, Pakistan (AP) — A suicide bomber shot his way into the residence of a provincial government minister Wednesday in northwestern Pakistan, killing the official and seven others in an explosion, police said. The blast near the town of Dera Ismail Khan also wounded more than 30 people, senior police officer Mohammad Jan said. The minister of law for Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, Israullah Gandapur, was meeting
with people at his house to celebrate the Muslim Eid holiday when the bomber struck, Jan said. The attacker first shot dead the guard at the house before blowing himself inside the guest room of the minister’s residence, the officer said. The minister died on the way to the hospital. The suicide bomber got very close to the minister before the blast and carried about eight kilograms (17 pounds) of explosives on his body, Jan said.

Wikipedia “edit-a-thon,� one of many that’s been held in recent years to help increase the representation of women on Wikipedia. They gathered dozens of students and some faculty members this week at Brown to train them on how to add and edit pages. They also provided lists of suggestions for women to add. Among those listed was Ingeborg Hochmair, who does not have a page even though last month she won the prestigious Lasker Award for medical research for her work developing the modern cochlear implant. By contrast, her husband, Erwin Hochmair, an accomplished engineer who helped develop the device but did not win a Lasker prize, has his own page.

Only time can heal pain of losing pets DEAR ABBY: You gave some nice advice to “Afraid of the Loss” (June 25), who wrote concerning the impending death of a beloved pet. I think your suggestion of a support group is helpful, but having lost a pet I had for 16 years, I have experienced the deep pain this man will feel. Adding a second pet to his home while his pet is still alive often energizes an older pet. When the time comes, it will help the human to have another loving pet to help with the grieving. As I learned, only time was able to take the deep hurt to a place where I could think of him without tears. Keeping the ashes of a pet can be comforting, whether you choose to bury them later or tuck them away in your home. Most important is having a plan for when that moment comes so you automatically know what needs to be done. It really helped to have all the

DEAR ABBY: Your pet is your child. Anyone who doesn’t understand that isn’t worth worrying about when the loss occurs. Will it hurt? Of course. But the pain does ease in time. When my first dog died, I spoke with a grief counselor at the local veterinary college. It didn’t make my pain disappear, but it helped me to understand it more. Your pet does not live in the future, but in the moment. Enjoy every moment you have together and accept the unconditional love your pet has given you. You WILL get through it. — DEB DEAR ABBY is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at .DearAbby.com or P.O.

DEAR DOCTOR K: I’ve tried to quit smoking on my own, but it never lasts. Could medications help? How do they work? DEAR READER: Medicines can help, and they have improved “quit rates.” Although smoking is a particularly hard habit to break, you can do it. The proof: There are more ex-smokers in the United States today than there are smokers. Cigarette smoke contains many different substances that damage the tissues of the body and increase the risk of cancer. But those damaging substances are not what make you addicted to cigarettes. Nicotine, one of the many dangerous chemicals found in cigarettes, is what addicts you. It doesn’t damage your tissues; it just makes you want to smoke. Each hit of nicotine produces pleasure. But as nicotine leaves the body, you begin to experience

It’s ABBY something that should be on Jeanne Phillips everyone’s bucket list. — CATHY DEAR CATHY: My thanks to you and all the readers who sent heartfelt letters supporting “Afraid.” It’s easy to see why dogs are called man’s best friend because of all the love, affection, entertainment and companionship they give us, and why we only want the best for them in this life and after. Read on:
called an e-cigarette) delivers a low dose of nicotine through the mouth, throat and lungs. You use the inhaler when you feel the urge for a cigarette. • Lozenges supply a low dose of nicotine that gets absorbed into your bloodstream. Two other quit-smoking medications do not contain nicotine; they act on the brain to decrease nicotine cravings, nicotine withdrawal symptoms, or both. Varenicline (Chantix) and bupropion (Wellbutrin, Zyban) are prescription drugs. They imitate some effects of nicotine, cutting down on cravings and withdrawal symptoms. So if you slip and have a cigarette, you will experience less of a reward. DR. KOMAROFF is a physician and professor at Harvard Medical School. His website is AskDoctorK.com.
