Police and volunteers will close streets and intersections during the event, which is expected to end about 9 p.m.

Purdue to help students with cost of studying abroad WEST LAFAYETTE, (AP) — Purdue University officials hope paying students up to $3,000 will lead to more of them to study abroad. Fewer than 20 percent of Purdue students participate in international study programs before graduating, and one of university President Mitch Daniels’ new initiatives is to increase that to one-third of some 30,000 undergrads. “Learning in another country is an educational necessity, and making study abroad a core component of a Purdue education will help students grow, learn and prepare themselves to make an impact in a global economy,” Daniels said. The money will be available starting spring semester for qualified undergraduates who complete a credit-bearing study-abroad program for a semester or school year.

Suspect in abduction arrested LAGRANGE — A man wanted as a suspect in an abduction was arrested early this afternoon, the LaGrange County Sheriff’s Department said. Steven Gail Gose, 40, was taken into custody by the Rome City Police Department and the Noble County Sheriff’s Department. Officers took him to the LaGrange County Jail to be held on multiple outstanding warrants. Friday, LaGrange County Superior Court Judge George Brown issued a warrant for Gose on charges of criminal confine-

ment, a Class C Felony, and two Class D felony offenses, domestic battery and strangulation. He also was wanted for parole violation. Gose is suspected of abducting Jennifer Lee Bitzel, of Peru and formerly of Rome City, late Wednesday night. Rome City Police found her safe in Rome City early Friday morning, police said. She had bruising to her head, face and throat, police added. Police previously said the incident began Wednesday at a residence in the 3000 block of

LaGrange C.R. 600E, where Bitzel was battered severely. She then was removed forcefully from the residence by a man who allegedly Gose made death threats to Bitzel before forcing her into a silver, 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix. Bitzel’s two young children were left behind at the residence. In a posting on its Facebook page Monday, the LaGrange

County Sheriff’s Department expressed gratitude for “the tremendous amount of assistance that we have received with this case.” It said help came from concerned citizens who provided many tips and leads, its Facebook followers, “area news media for their persistent coverage of this case” and all LaGrange County law enforcement agencies, the Noble County Sheriff’s Department, Rome City Police Department, Indiana State Police and the Kendallville Police Department.

Robber to serve 11 years Battle LAGRANGE — Aljamar Gregory, 27, an Elkhart man convicted of robbery by a LaGrange County jury — even though he skipped his own trial — was sentenced to serve 11 years in an Indiana prison Monday afternoon by LaGrange County Circuit Court Judge J. Scott VanDerbeck. Gregory, who has a lengthy criminal record, maintained he is innocent of the bank robbery charge even at his sentencing hearing. He admitted to the court that while he makes a living selling drugs, “I didn’t rob no bank.” Gregory then shrugged his shoulders and with a matter-of-fact attitude told the judge to do what ever the judge needed to do. “I’ll just do the time and get out,” Gregory added. Gregory was convicted in February by a LaGrange County jury of being one of three men who robbed Howe’s branch of Peoples Federal Savings Bank of an undisclosed amount of money in December 2010. Gregory was linked to the Howe robbery after being arrested by South Bend police in possession of cash police say was taken from the bank. Gregory was charged with armed robbery and possession of stolen property. After attending all his pretrial hearings, Gregory disappeared the day of his trial and was tried in absentia. Gregory was found guilty of a lesser charge of robbery and the second charge, possession of stolen property. Gregory resurfaced in Elkhart County in July and was arrested by Elkhart police on an outstanding warrant for possession of marijuana. At Monday’s hearing, Wible asked the judge to sentence Gregory to the maximum eight years for the robbery and three years for possession of stolen property.

arrest, Wible painted a picture of Gregory as a career criminal. Wible showed pictures of Gregory holding a gun similar to the one used in the Howe robbery, large amounts of cash and small children holding money and a handgun. “He’s a gangster,” Wible said of Gregory. Citing more than 10 prior convictions, including two stints in prison, Wible said he didn’t believe Gregory was the type of person who would respond well to a short prison sentence. “Every day he is in jail is a day of the week he’s not here to rob someone else,” Wible said.

Gregory’s court-appointed defense attorney, Eric Blackman of Kendallville, said Wible’s portrayal of Gregory might not be accurate. “We’re being asked to connect a lot of dots here,” Blackman said. “Maybe they do make a picture, maybe they don’t.” The judge sided with the prosecutor, sentencing Gregory to the maximum prison time and not offering to suspend any of the sentence. Gregory will be returned to the Elkhart County jail. He is expected to face additional charges from authorities in Elkhart and St. Joseph counties.

NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) — Kenyan security forces battled al-Qaida-linked terrorists in an upscale mall for a third day Monday in what they said was a final push to rescue the last few hostages in a siege that has left at least 62 people dead. While the government announced Sunday that “most” hostages had been released, a security expert with contacts inside the mall said at least 10 were still being held by a band of attackers described as “a multinational collection from all over the world.” The expert, who insisted on anonymity to talk freely about the situation, said many hostages had been freed or escaped in the previous 24-36 hours, including some who were in hiding. However, there were at least 30 hostages when the assault by al-Shabab militants began Saturday, he said, and “it’s clear” that Kenyan security officials “haven’t cleared the building fully.” Flames and dark plumes of smoke rose Monday above the Westgate shopping complex for more than an hour after four large explosions rocked the surrounding neighborhood. The smoke was pouring through a large skylight inside the mall’s main department and grocery store, where mattresses and other flammable goods appeared to have been set on fire, a person with knowledge of the rescue operation told The Associated Press. The explosions were followed by volleys of gunfire as police helicopters and a military jet circled overhead, giving the SEE BATTLE, PAGE A6

Mid-skill jobs account for much of state’s gap BY SUE CARPENTER scarpenter@kpcmedia.com

GARRETT — The largest and fastest-growing segment of Indiana’s skills gap comes from middle-skill jobs, those that require at least a high school diploma but less than a four-year college degree, said a report released Monday by the Indiana Skills2Compete Coalition. The findings were offered at a news conference by coalition co-chairs Sen. Dennis Kruse, R-Auburn, and Jessica Fraser from the Indiana Institute of Working Families at Group Dekko’s Garrett plant, one of several northeast Indiana manufacturers with firsthand knowledge of the skills gap. The report concludes the skills gap is an adult problem that will require adult solutions. Fraser noted Indiana’s

unemployment rate is stuck above 8 percent and more than 44 percent of Hoosiers between the ages of 18 and 65 have no post-secondary education at all, meaning that more than 1.8 million Hoosier adults currently lack the skills attainment to be competitive in the workforce. Middle-skill jobs account for more than 550,000 job openings in Indiana — half of all openings through 2020. That number has increased by almost 63,000 jobs over the number of mid-skill jobs projected from 2006-2016, according to the report. While 54 percent of all jobs in Indiana are classified as middle-skill, only 47 percent of the state’s workers have the skills and credentials for the jobs. Although Indiana policymakers have emphasized the skills gap in recent workforce development

and education efforts, the report shows the skills gap won’t be filled without adult solutions.

The coalition selected four policy priorities for 2014 that focus on SEE GAP, PAGE A6

Colleagues mourn loss of Rep. Phyllis Pond FROM STAFF REPORTS

NEW HAVEN — Colleagues and Indiana leaders praised state Rep. Phyllis Pond, R-New Haven, Monday, in the wake of her death Sunday evening. Pond had been diagnosed with pulmonary fibrosis in early September and recently resigned her seat in the Indiana House of Representatives, effective Oct. 15, due to her health. Calling and her funeral will be held at the Emmanuel Lutheran Church in New Haven and will be open to the public. Her family still is deciding on the time and date. Cards may be sent to Rep. Phyllis Pond’s family at 8530 Seiler Road, New Haven, IN 46774. Pond was elected to the state Legislature in 1978 and was the longest-serving female state representative in Indiana history. For

several years, her district included southern portions of DeKalb County. That ended with redrawing of district lines for the 2012 election. “Today, the State of Indiana mourns the loss of a leader and a friend to all Hoosiers. Phyllis was a revered colleague, a strong voice for her district and a compassionate conservative who always stood by her principles,” said House Speaker Brian C. Bosma, R-Indianapolis. “Phyllis has been a steadfast leader in our caucus and has forged a new path for women legislators in Indiana. Her dedication and service will continue to be fondly remembered by all. She will undoubtedly be missed.” “She will be fondly remembered as a strong leader for our state who always spoke her mind and would move mountains for her constituents. She will be sorely missed,” said Rep.

Dave Ober, R-Albion. District 51 State Rep. Dennis Zent, R-Angola, served only one year with Pond, but he lived several years in her district before moving to Lake James. “While I didn’t get much time to work with her, I’ve known her for a long time,” Zent Rep. Pond said. “She was as genuine as they come. She could see all sides of an issue. Maybe it was her background as a school teacher. She just had this certain ability to listen and make well-reasoned decisions with her constituents in mind.” Zent was one of many newcomers to the Legislature who Pond would take aside for a little mentoring.

She told new members to take their time, listen to as many viewpoints as possible and above all, represent the wishes of their constituents. “She just brought a certain civility to the process. She was a lady. I just hope I can be as well thought of as she some day,” Zent said. “Phyllis had it down, and she’s going to be missed.” “Phyllis Pond was an historic leader for Allen County and for the people of Indiana,” said Indiana Senate President Pro Tem David Long, R-Fort Wayne. “She was one of the first women to serve in the state Legislature from our area, and she served with great effectiveness, passion and distinction for 35 years. She never lost her zeal for the job, nor her focus on improving the lives of the people of our state. It’s hard to imagine our delegation without Phyllis. We will miss her greatly.”

Indiana’s U.S. Sen. Dan Coats issued a statement on behalf of himself and his wife, Marsha. “Phyllis was a true friend and someone who dedicated her life to public service,” Coats said. “She faithfully represented the interests of Hoosiers in her district. Marsha and I extend our deepest condolences to her family and also our gratitude for her example of living a life dedicated to serving others and the community.” Pond also had a career as a kindergarten teacher. Drawing on her experience, in one of her most significant achievements she authored the state’s Primetime Education law that capped classroom sizes at 18 children for kindergarten through third grade. A Republican caucus to choose her replacement in the Indiana House already had been scheduled for Oct. 8.

Student with knife arrested at game BY DENNIS NARTKER dnartker@kpcmedia.com

KENDALLVILLE — An East Noble student was arrested at Friday night’s high school football game on charges of intimidation and possession of a knife on school property, after he allegedly threatened a

younger student. At about 8:20 p.m., East Noble resource officer Sgt. John Dixon was notified about the alleged incident by Kendallville police reserve Cpl. Christopher Streich, who was working security at the East Noble vs. Carroll football game. Streich

received a report from an 11-year-old boy that he was threatened by an older student who brandished a knife, according to a Kendallville Police Department news release. Streich relayed the information to other police officers providing security at the game. Due to the quick response by the officers and East Noble officials, the 14-year-old male suspect was located and removed from the large crowd of spectators within minutes and without incident, according to Dixon. The suspect, an East Noble student from Kendallville, reportedly gave Dixon the knife he used to threaten the victim. He also admitted to school officials that he threatened the younger boy with knife.

Credit union breaks ground SHIPSHEWANA — With shovels painted gold, officers of a credit union, town officials and construction company representatives officially broke ground Monday morning for a new credit union office in Shipshewana. Construction on the new branch office of Interra Credit kicked off nearly two weeks ago on Berkshire Drive, just north of E&S Sales. Workers were busy Monday morning preparing the office’s new foundation. The 3,500-square-foot branch office will include a lobby, teller and office area, safe-deposit boxes, drive-up lanes, an ATM and a night depository. The Shipshewana office will offer members a full

range of financial services including checking, savings, business and agricultural loans. Interra Credit is a Goshen-based credit union that started more than 80 years ago. While the largest portion of Interra’s business is residential mortgages, the credit union said it prides itself on understanding the needs of both small business and small farms, and “English” and Amish customers. The firm recently opened its first LaGrange County office in Topeka and has an established office in Middlebury. “We already have a good membership over here, so opening an office in Shipshewana was just a natural extension,” said Sanford Miller, a vice

Deadline nears for matching donations LAGRANGE — Time is running out to earn matching dollars for donations through the LaGrange County Community Foundation for the benefit of either the LaGrange or Shipshewana ministerial associations. The foundation has declared September to be LaGrange County’s 2013 Ministerial Association Month. Any gift made to the LCCF Good Samaritan Fund during September will be set aside for a matching grant to those associations’ emergency assistance funds. Topeka has opted not to participate in the matching program this year. The LCCF has pledged to match all local gifts, dollar for dollar, up to an additional $2,000 for each ministerial association. Checks submitted to LCCF during September for this purpose must note on the memo line — “Good Samaritan Fund” and then specify either “LaGrange” or “Shipshewana.” Gifts that do not specify one or the other ministerial association will be evenly distributed between both. Cash donations to the Community Foundation should be accompanied by a note with the same information. Questions about the program may be directed to Loren Heinlen, program officer at the foundation, by calling 463-4363.

Deaths & Funerals • Bill Burnworth KIMMELL — Bill G. Burnworth of Kimmell passed away on Sunday, September 22, 2013, at 4 p.m. surrounded by his loving family at his home on Harper Lake. He was born on December 13, 1930, in Noble Township, Noble County, and was the son Mr. of Melvin Burnworth and Catherine (Buckles) Burnworth. Mr. Burnworth’s mother died in 1939 and in 1940 at the age of nine he went to live with his Aunt and Uncle Fred and Hazel (Buckles) Howard, who raised him. Bill graduated from Wolf Lake High School in 1949. Bill began farming in 1941, weeding mint. His family moved to the home farm, in Washington Township, Noble County, in 1945 where he was a dairy and grain farmer. On March 1, 1952, he married Phyllis Jean Campbell at the home of Rev. Marion Shroyer in Columbia City, Indiana. From 1956 until 1982 they resided on the home farm, and in 1982 they moved to their present home on Harper Lake. Bill loved his wife and family dearly and enjoyed being with all of them and a part of their lives. In 1979, Bill went into partnership with his daughter and son-in-law, Deb and Rick Zollars, buying a Ford dealership in Kimmell. In 1980 they built a new Ford dealership in Ligonier, where Bill worked as a salesman until 1995 when he was diagnosed with lymphoma. He continued to work part-time as his health permitted. Bill underwent aggressive chemo and radiation treatments from which he never fully recovered. Bill served on many boards and committees such as Noble County REMC for 33 years, and of these 33 years was chairman for 27 years. He retired from the board nine years ago. He also served on the Noble County SWCD board, West Noble FFA Ag Advisory Board, Washington Township Advisory Board, Washington Township 4-H Advisory Board, Precinct Committeeman, Election Board, Treasury of Crestview Building Corporation, Production Credit Association, Noble County Farm Bureau Board and was a member and served many offices of the Ormas Baptist Church. Bill also attended the Etna United Methodist Church Men’s Fellowship coffee. Bill enjoyed fishing, and he and Phyllis enjoyed traveling numerous places

HOME IMPROVEMENT

I am thinking about replacing all the windows in my house. What items should I look for in order to make the correct decision?

Usually when people are thinking about replacing their windows or doors, there are two main reasons: lack of energy efficiency, and too hard to maintain. Most replacement windows manufactured today are going to do a pretty good job at solving these problems as long as they are Tyler Knox installed properly. It is important to find an installer Owner or dealer who shows you a sample of the actual window they are going to be installing, not just a picture or brochure. They should be able to give you an accurate estimate right then. If they say they will be back with you, it usually means they need to check window prices, which can mean they are not that comfortable with the job. I would definitely ask for warranty information as well. How long is the installation warranty, and how long is the window warranty? There are many other questions you may have, so feel free to call today to set up a free estimate on any of your windows, doors, or siding needs.

Q A

VETERINARIAN

Is antifreeze poisonous to my pet?

Ethylene glycol is used as an automotive antifreeze and is often checked or changed during this time of the year. If it is left uncovered, drained or spilled on the floor, dogs and cats may drink it because of the sweet taste. A cat need only clean its paws after walking through a puddle Scott A. Taylor for antifreeze to result in severe and fatal D.V.M. poisoning. Ethylene glycol is rapidly changed in the body and forms crystals in the kidneys causing permanent damage and even death. Prompt intensive treatment and hospitalization are required to treat most antifreeze poisonings and to avoid severe kidney damage. If you suspect your pet has ingested antifreeze, contact your veterinarian immediately for instructions on proper treatment.

COUNSELING & THERAPY

Q Why do I feel in a constant "state of stress?"

Many couples experience stress because one feels the other isn't considering their needs. If you find it uncomfortable to talk Dr. Connolly about your needs, and instead, keep them bottled up, then you are engaging in the very process that fuels the "state of stress." As such, they will continue to build up until they reach an exploding point. Therefore, I might suggest you may benefit from counseling that teaches you to be comfortable in talking about your wants, dreams and needs. Call for an appointment.

neighborhood the feel of a war zone. By evening, Kenyan security officials claimed the upper hand. “Taken control of all the floors. We’re not here to feed the attackers with pastries but to finish and punish them,” Police Inspector General David Kimaiyo said on Twitter. Kenya’s Interior Minister Joseph Ole Lenku said the evacuation of hostages had gone “very, very well” and that Kenyan officials were “very certain” that few if any hostages were left in the building. But with the mall cordoned off and under heavy security it was not possible to independently verify the assertions. Similar claims of a quick resolution were made by Kenyan officials on Sunday and the siege continued. Authorities have also not provided any details on how many hostages were freed or how many still remain captive. Three attackers were killed in the fighting Monday, Kenyan authorities said, and more than 10 suspects arrested. Eleven Kenyan soldiers were

wounded in the running gun battles. Somalia’s al-Qaida-linked rebel group, al-Shabab, which claimed responsibility for the attack, said the hostage-takers were well-armed and ready to take on the Kenyan forces. An al-Shabab spokesman, Sheik Ali Mohamud Rage, said in an audio file posted on a militant website that the attackers had been ordered to “take punitive action against the hostages” if force was used to try to rescue them. The attackers have lots of ammunition, the militant group said in a Twitter feed, adding that Kenya’s government would be responsible for any loss of hostages’ lives. A Western security official in Nairobi who insisted on not being named to share information about the rescue operation said the only reason the siege hadn’t yet ended would be because hostages were still inside. Westgate mall, a vast complex with multiple banks that have secure vaults and bulletproof glass partitions, as well as a casino, is difficult to take, the official said. “They are not made for storming,” he said of the labyrinth of shops, restau-

U.S., Iran closer to high-level talks NEW YORK (AP) — The Obama administration edged close to direct, high-level talks with Iran’s new government on Monday, with Secretary of State John Kerry slated to meet his Iranian counterpart this week and the White House weighing the risks and rewards of an encounter between President Barack Obama and Iran’s president, Hasan Rouhani. An Obama-Rouhani exchange on the sidelines of the U.N. General Assembly would mark the first meeting at that high level for the two nations in more than 30 years. Such talks could signal a turning point in U.S.-Iranian relations — but also could be seen as a premature endorsement for

a new Iranian government that has yet to answer key questions about the future of its disputed nuclear program. Obama advisers said no meeting was scheduled. But they added that the U.S. planned to take advantage of diplomatic opportunities while in New York and indicated they were not leaving a possible encounter between Obama and Rouhani to chance. “I don’t think that anything would happen by happenstance on a relationship and an issue that is this important,” Ben Rhodes, Obama’s deputy national security adviser, told reporters traveling with the president to New York. The election of Rouhani, a moderate cleric, has

led to speculation about possible progress on Iran’s nuclear impasse with the U.S. Particularly intriguing to American officials are Rouhani’s assertions that his government has “complete authority” in nuclear negotiations. That would be a marked change from previous governments and their relationship with Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. The U.S. and its allies have long suspected that Iran is trying to produce a nuclear weapon, though Tehran insists its nuclear activities are only for producing energy and for medical research. American officials say Rouhani’s change in tone is driven by the Iranian public’s

The militants specifically targeted non-Muslims, and at least 18 foreigners were among the dead, including six Britons, as well as citizens from France, Canada, the Netherlands, Australia, Peru, India, Ghana, South Africa and China. Nearly 200 people were wounded, including five Americans. Fighters from an array of nations participated in the assault, according to Kenya Chief of Defense forces Gen. Julius Karangi. “We have an idea who these people are and they are clearly a multinational collection from all over the world,” he said. In the United States, the FBI was looking into whether Americans were involved in the attack, said FBI spokesman Paul Bresson.

frustration with crippling economic sanctions levied by the U.S. But it is still unclear whether Iran is willing to take the steps the U.S. is seeking in order to ease the sanctions, including curbing uranium enrichment and shutting down the underground Fordo nuclear facility. State Department officials said Kerry would seek to answer that question on Thursday when new Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif joins nuclear talks between the U.S. and five other world powers. Zarif’s participation, which was announced Monday, sets up the first meeting in six years between an American secretary of state and an Iranian foreign minister.

GAP: Making financial aid more accessible one suggestion FROM PAGE A10

middle-skill attainment for Indiana’s adult workers: • Increasing access to financial aid for part-time students, many of whom are currently working and are faced with the need to upgrade skills or want the opportunity to advance in their chosen fields. • Continue differentiation of services for students in adult basic education, certain basic skills training, development education, and language acquisition that could be better pursued through adult basic education and community-based agencies. • Maximize on-the-job training opportunities already available through federal funds by minimizing policy barriers that prevent more employers from using the program. The programs are designed to help reduce employers’ upfront hiring and training costs associated with the new staff and enable new hires to earn while they learn. • Promote statewide establishment of Prior Learning Assessments for adults with significant work experience, awarding academic credit for meritorious portfolios, accepting transfer academic-credit awarded through rigorous review by other institutions, and encouraging viable candidates to undertake the assessment process.

Knights shine on Senior Night BY JAMES FISHER jfisher@kpcnews.net

KENDALLVILLE — East Noble set the tone early in Monday’s Northeast Hoosier Conference boys soccer match up with Columbia City. The Knights struck three times with goals in the opening 10 minutes on the way to a dominating 10-1 victory over the Eagles on Senior Night. “We came prepared, had the mentality to win,” said East Noble senior Oscar Pita. “The three goals put us in the mood and took a little of the pressure off.” Pita put the Knights on the scoreboard on an assist from Matt Patton, with Zan Foltyniak then connecting at the nine-minute mark. A minute later Kyle Bloom connected for a 3-0 East Noble lead. “It was good for the seniors to get a start like that,” said East Noble coach Rob Berkley. “We gained confidence, knew we’d be able to continue to carry it through the game.” Pita struck again when the Columbia City keeper came out of the net, with the Knights finding Pita open on the opposite side of the net. Evan Strack soon made it

5-0 with a shot in front of the net. The Eagles scored their lone goal just before the half, sending the Knights into the break with a 5-1 margin. Senior Kaleb Williams, who spent the first half in goal, joined in the scoring to open the second half, connecting twice to put the Knights up 7-1. Before game’s end, the squad also got scores from Mason Diffendorfer, Jesse Maley and Sergio Castro. “We have a group of guys, a blue collar group, that’s always working hard,” Pita said. Seniors on the East Noble squad are Pita, Williams, Strack, Bloom, Patton, Foltyniak, Maley, Aaron Berkey, Kam Wible, Victor Gonzalez and Andy Kretler. “I’ve been here for four years, this is my first group from beginning to end,” Berkley said. “They mean a lot to me.” The Knights beat Wawasee 2-0 on Saturday. “That was one of our better wins,” Berkley explained. “Wawasee has been playing very JAMES FISHER well. It was another shutout for East Noble senior Oscar Pita celebrates after scoring his second Kaleb Williams and crew.” Patton and Mohsin Shemman goal during Monday’s 10-1 victory over Columbia City on Senior Night. scored for the Knights.

Colts are clicking Colts’ philosophy works perfectly at San Francisco

I challenged them in game two to step up and get some points, they responded and pulled it out,” DeKalb coach Andrea Spiess said. “When this team makes that choice, they’re really mentally tough, and that’s something we talk about, playing as a team, being mentally tough behind the line and staying aggressive.”

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Chuck Pagano spent months trying to convince others that his old-school football philosophy would still work. Those who didn’t believe it then sure do now. Thanks to a powerful ground game, a productive passing game and a persistent defense, the short-handed Colts surprised everyone by easily overpowering defending NFC champion San Francisco — on the 49ers’ home turf. “It builds confidence throughout the locker room, throughout the organization and obviously on both sides of the ball and special teams,” Pagano said. “Like you said, they (the players) have bought in from Day 1, but it just lends credence to what you’re doing philosophically. When you lay out a blueprint, it doesn’t matter what venue, if we’re home or away, it shows that if you stick to the process, it comes to fruition and you go win a game like we just won, you can build on that.” Inside the Colts’ locker room, few doubted that the transformation from finesse, pass-first team to a physically-imposing balanced offense would work.

DeKalb spikers sweep Blazers BY JEFF JONES jjones@kpcmedia.com

WATERLOO — There comes a point when you put fatigue aside and decide it’s time to win the game. After winning the first game 25-14 over Eastside Monday, the DeKalb Barons were faced with that scenario in game two, when the Blazers took a 23-21 lead.

The Barons came out of a timeout, quickly gained two kills, and a Maddy Fifer ace closed out the 25-23 rally and win. In the third game, DeKalb (11-4) maintained a steady, if not comfortable margin throughout, pulling away for a 25-16 win. “We looked tired, just coming off a tournament this weekend, but they rallied back, and when

Baron girls dominant in NHC soccer win BY KEN FILLMORE kfillmore@kpcmedia.com

WATERLOO — DeKalb’s girls soccer team gradually took control of its Northeast Corner Conference match with Norwell as the first half went on Monday evening and went on to a 5-0 victory. “We started slow. We were a little sluggish,” Barons coach Sam Weicht said. “But we were passing the ball and that helped get us going. “John (Proegler, Knights coach) did a good job with her girls and had them ready,” Weicht added. “That number 1 (midfielder Kaycee Strunk) is faster than all get out. We’d push a through ball and she would take it from us.” The aggressiveness of Norwell sophomore goalkeeper Jessica Siela twice kept DeKalb (9-2, 5-1 NHC) from striking early in the first 13 minutes by intercepting crossing passes in front of the

Knights’ goal and not giving up rebounds. The play was largely in the Knights’ defensive half of the field and the Barons broke through with two goals 1 minute, 17 seconds apart late in the first half. Junior Taya Poynter scored off a long lead pass from senior Katie Hamlin with 4:33 left before halftime. Poynter’s shot slowly rolled past the goal line. Not long after, Baron senior Alyssa Clark headed home Marisa Robinett’s corner kick to put her team up 2-0. Senior Kacey Wells got ahead of the Knights’ defense and blasted a shot high and to the right of Siela 14:20 into the second half to make it 3-0. Sophomore Andrea Oster scored on an assist from senior Madison VanWye with 19:06 left. The Hamlin-to-Poynter connection worked again with just under eight minutes left as Poynter scored her

second goal of the match. “We moved Katie from center midfield and she has been solid in how she passes that ball,” Weicht said. “She’s a hard worker. Colleges will want to get that girl.” DeKalb outshot Norwell 28-1. The Barons had three corner kicks while the Knights did not have any. “Our defense had a good night,” Weicht said. “They’ve kept us in games all year long.” Norwell’s Siela made 12 saves in goal. Allie Gaff started in goal for the Barons and did not have to make a save. DeKalb’s only losses have been to state-ranked teams: Homestead, who was ranked 13th in Class 2A last week, and Canterbury, who was ranked sixth in 1A last week. The Barons defeated perennial area power Carroll earlier this season for the first time in 11 years.

Keck was named the conference’s Special Teams Player of the Week in football for the second time this season and third time in his Thunder career. The senior from Elkhart made six extra points and a 30-yard field goal, averaged 55 yards per kickoff, had three touchbacks and executed a short kickoff his team recovered in Trine’s 47-41 home win over Concordia (Wis.) Saturday. Searles was named the MIAA’s Specialty Player of the Week in volleyball for the first time in her college career. The junior setter from Levering, Mich., had 117 assists, 34 digs and 17 kills in the Thunder’s three MIAA wins last week.

Reds close in on wild card, beat Mets 3-2 in 10th CINCINNATI (AP) — Shin-Soo Choo drove in the winning run with a single off the wall in the 10th inning, and the Cincinnati Reds closed in on a wild-card berth by beating the New York Mets 3-2 on Monday night. Second-place Cincinnati can clinch a playoff spot with one more win or a loss by Washington, which played at first-place St. Louis on Monday night. Manager Dusty Baker said there would be no celebration of a wild-card clinching, not with a second straight NL Central title still in play. David Aardsma pitched out of a bases-loaded threat in the ninth, retiring Todd Frazier on a flyout. Greg Burke (0-3) gave up a one-out single by Devin Mesoraco in the 10th, and Derrick Robinson singled him to third.

COLTS: Indy tops 100 yards rushing for third time FROM PAGE B1

Andrew Luck and the rest of Indy’s contingent from Stanford saw the same formula turn a stumbling college program into a national contender. The defensive players who had been part of Pagano’s system in Baltimore, such as Cory Redding, or similar defenses around the league already knew it was a proven commodity. But fans were understandably nervous. After watching Peyton Manning & Co. make high-scoring shootouts and mind-numbing stats the norm, then seeing Luck do essentially the same thing in last year’s pass-happy offense, many wondered whether the Colts were doing the right thing by relying on a more balanced attack. A dismal Week 2 loss to Miami brought out critics from all corners. They’ve all vanished after seeing the kind of stat sheet that would make any coach happy. —Indy never trailed in producing its most lopsided

road win since Oct. 25, 2009. —The Colts rushed for 179 yards and topped the 100-yard mark for the third straight week, the first time that’s happened in Indy since September 1989. —Newly acquired Trent Richardson scored a touchdown on his first carry with the Colts, while Luck and starting running back Ahmad Bradshaw each scored on TD runs, too. —The defense limited San Francisco to 254 yards, 91 on its only scoring drive and 67 on its final series, and forced two turnovers. —Indy still has not lost back-to-back games since Pagano took over as coach last season, improving to 6-0 after losses. —And they did all that without six starters. Pagano couldn’t have drawn it up any better. “It was as complete a game as I think we’ve played since we’ve been here,” he said. “Every game is going to be different, so

sometimes, you’re going to throw more than you run. But any time you can win the time of possession battle like that, and you win the turnover battle, win the third-down battle …” Usually, you win. The only question left is whether the Colts (2-1) can continue winning this way. On Sunday, they shuffled the lineup after losing their best blocking tight end, Dwayne Allen, left guard Donald Thomas and starting center Samson Satele to injuries. So Pagano moved right guard Mike McGlynn to center, started rookie Hugh Thornton at left guard and Jeff Linkenbach at right guard, and used Joe Reitz and tight end Dominique Jones as extra blockers in heavy run formations. It worked. Bradshaw had his best game since joining the Colts, running 19 times for 95 yards and Richardson gave the Colts a strong two-man wrecking crew on inside runs.

DeKalb led 9-5 in game three, but Eastside (5-12) hung around, pulling to within 14-13 on an Erin Strock tip. Hannah Lewis had a kill, and a Lexi Hooks ace boosted the Baron lead to 16-13. After an exchange of sideouts, Lewis had a kill and ace, and Hooks added a back row kill to extend the lead to five. Hunter Daub contributed an ace into the far corner, and Hayley Martin’s kill spun off the net and bounced just inside the sideline for match point. Lewis and Martin finished with 13 kills each to lead the Barons, and Shade Herbolsheimer added seven. Herbolsheimer and Skylar Ostrowski had two blocks each. Grace Hooks served three aces, and Daub and Lexi Hooks had two each. Daub had 28 assists for DeKalb. “We’ve really put a focus on our defense, being scrappy and making sure the ball doesn’t touch our side,” Spiess said. “Defense creates offense, and we have a strong offensive attack when we can swing.” Strock finished with 10 kills to lead Eastside. Maddy Minehart had five blocks, and Kylee Yoder added four. Yoder had 17 assists for the Blazers. DeKalb won the reserve match 25-10, 25-16. Both teams are in conference matches tonight. Eastside travels to Lakeland in a Northeast Corner Conference match. DeKalb hosts Homestead in a Northeast Hoosier Conference match.

Novak Djokovic of Serbia celebrates a point during the 2013 Davis Cup. Djokovic is No. 1 in the ATP rankings for the 100th week and is the ninth player to reach the milestone.

Djokovic reaches 100th week at No. 1 in rankings LONDON (AP) — Novak Djokovic is No. 1 in the ATP rankings for the 100th week. The 26-year-old Serb is the ninth player to reach the milestone, joining Andre Agassi (101 weeks), Rafael Nadal (102), Bjorn Borg (109), John McEnroe (170), Jimmy Connors (268), Ivan Lendl (270), Pete Sampras (286) and Roger Federer (302). Djokovic reached No. 1 in July 2011. He lost the top spot to Federer for three months in 2012 but regained it in November of that year. Djokovic’s bid to finish the year at No. 1 for a third straight time is under serious threat from Nadal. Djokovic has 11,120 points, while Nadal has 10,860. Both are entered in next week’s China Open, where Djokovic will be defending his title and Nadal has no points to defend. Nadal can get to No. 1 for the first time since July 3, 2011, by reaching the final.

Pacers hope to sign George contract before season INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Paul George has no intention of leaving the Pacers. Larry Bird is spending most of his time these days trying to sure Indiana’s budding star sticks around for the next few years. The team president left Monday’s annual Pacers Foundation golf outing before the others teed off so he could continue negotiating a long-term deal to keep George in town. “We’re talking, but we’ve got a ways to go. That’s where I’m going now, back to work,” Bird said. George, Bird’s first-round pick in 2010, has made significant strides each of the past two seasons. He went from bench contributor as a rookie to full-time starter in 2011-12 to his first All-Star game appearance last season, when the Pacers fell one win short of reaching the NBA Finals. Last season, George averaged 17.4 points, 7.6 rebounds and 4.1 assists during the regular season, and was even better in the playoffs while also emerging as one of the league’s top defenders. His reward was being named the most improved player in the league last season. A year ago, Indiana locked up All-Star center Roy Hibbert and point guard George Hill with long-term deals. This summer, they re-signed power forward David West, traded for Luis Scola and revamped the bench with the signing of free agents Chris Copeland, Donald Sloan and C.J. Watson. The next two priorities are re-signing George and guard Lance Stephenson, who thrived in a starting role last season. Stephenson also could become a restricted free agent after the season.

Grizzlies announce hirings of three assistants MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — The Memphis Grizzlies have hired Elston Turner, Duane Ticknor and Shawn Respert to join the returning Bob Thornton as assistants on new head coach Dave Joerger’s staff. Turner previously worked as an assistant for Portland (1996-2000), Sacramento (2000-06), Houston (2007-11) and Phoenix (2011-13). Ticknor spent last season as head coach of the NBA Development League’s Fort Wayne Mad Ants. Joerger worked as an assistant for Ticknor in 1999-2000 with the International Basketball Association’s Dakota Wizards. Respert was director of player development for Houston from 2008-11 and spent the last two years as an assistant with Minnesota. The Grizzlies also have hired Chattin Hill as athletic performance coach and Mark Sanford as assistant video coordinator/player development.

New texting service helps students achieve college degree The latest technology teens are carrying in their pockets can help them earn a college degree. A new cyber service, Trip To College Alerts by the Indiana Youth Institute, sends three to four monthly text messages to students 13 and older to prepare them for education after high school. The messages are grade specific and provide information on ACT and SAT test dates, career assessments, scholarship information, financial aid deadlines and other tips on the essential steps to earning a postsecondary education. The texts often direct students to links where they can get more information. “Many students told me they absolutely wanted to pursue some education after high school, but they were worried they would miss important steps in the process” said Kate Coffman, director of the IYI’s Career and College Counseling (C3) initiate “Students need to take BILL several actions over the course STANCZYKIEWICZ of a few years to prepare for post-secondary education. One student said texting was the easiest way to get them the information they need.” Trip To College Alerts communicates with students in the medium they use most. The texts provide information specifically targeted for each student’s grade level over the course of the middle and high school years. According to Pew Research, 83 percent of teens own a cell phone with 54 percent text daily. Yet finding information on a website can be difficult, even for this tech savvy generation. Trip To College Alerts is reaching students by putting the information directly into the mobile phones and tablets they use daily. Almost 90 percent of students who tested Trip To College Alerts said the information received through the texts was helpful. Students found the alerts made it easy to get a clear idea of what they needed to do to realize their college dreams. All those involved in the test recommended that other students sign up for the service. The service is another way to “reach middle and high school students where they live,” to provide information about the growing importance of achieving some form of education or training after high school as a way to broaden students’ career options, said IYI President and CEO, Bill Stanczykiewicz. “The alerts also provide information about certificate programs, military training, apprenticeships and associate degrees, in addition to the traditional college route, which all open paths to jobs,” Stanczykiewicz said. “This is a critical time in Indiana, where the need for a better educated workforce is evident in the tens of thousands of jobs currently available for workers with the right type of education. We hope Trip To College Alerts helps families gain the knowledge they need to explore all the educational options available for their children, resulting in graduates prepared to meet the demands of the 21st century economy.” To join Trip To College Alerts, students should text the word “grad” and their graduation year to 69979. For example, a senior would text “grad2014” as one word, while a freshman would text “grad2017.” Students must be 13 or older to join. Standard texting rates apply and students should have the permission of a parent or guardian to sign up. Parents and mentors can also join Trip To College Alerts to discuss the messages with their children. All the parents who tested the text alerts found the information helpful and would recommend it to other parents. One parent said it was a better way to get information so she could better support her child’s college dreams. Parents can join multiple campaigns if they have more than one child. They just need to text “grad” and the graduation year of each child separately to 69979. So if parents have an eighth grader and a junior, they would text “grad2018” and then separately text “grad2015.” The parents would then receive texts that apply to each child. In addition to Trip To College Alerts, students are encouraged to visit DriveOfYourLife.org, which has grade-specific information about careers and what education is needed for students to obtain their dream job. Parents and students also can visit the college planning website TripToCollege.org to find out more about financial aid, steps to college and other tips to make sure their children stay on track for education after high school.

Letters to The Editor • Branches of U.S. government are the most socialist ever To the editor: After decades of paying taxes, I can honestly say I’ve never been forced to make such a bad investment. Until Obamacare. In a short period of time I will be blessed with compound bad investments. No only will I be much poorer, so will other citizens not yet poor enough. Even Robin Hood didn’t rob the middle class. A mandatory premium for health care

that is a “tax.” Justice John Roberts was on the same socialistic medication as the other socialist justices that supported this hallucinatory atrocity. It would do no good to relieve those socialist justices of their positions, as Obama would replace them with even more devoted socialist judges. With elected and appointed authorities instituting and protecting socialistic agendas, the Constitution has taken a back seat to the guiding principles of a once-great nation. There are now no

guiding principles! Arbitrary regulation. Feelgood legislation (when it happens at all). Political correctness to the point of self-flagellation. Group laws instead of individual rights. This administration. This Congress. This Supreme Court. Three of the most ever progressive (socialist) branches of government that happens to be the only government between a people of liberty and socialism/communism. Monty Strawser LaGrange

A system of exquisite balance has been disrupted WASHINGTON — So much about Washington seems unchanging from decade to decade, from generation to generation: The Capitol dome, shimmering in the blue-black sky of evening. The monuments, bleached white and inspiring reflection (Washington, Lincoln and Jefferson) and remembrance (World War II, Korea, Vietnam). The White House, majestic in its simple elegance. The tourists, clutching cameras and high hopes for the American experiment, even with more than a dozen dead of gun wounds a few blocks away. And yet in a political system designed to be forever new — the regular rotation of House members in biennial elections, the immutable four-year rhythms of a presidential term — there is something new but deeply unsettling about the capital as summer melts into autumn. It is as if a system of exquisite balance has been disrupted. It isn’t any one thing but an accumulation of factors that have contributed to the word that dare not speak its name — the word (malaise) that Jimmy Carter never actually uttered in a 1979 speech remembered in presidential infamy. Here are some of the symptoms: The president has lost his gyroscope. Even in the most discouraging moments of his first term, President Obama knew where he was going and had a sure notion of how to get there. No more, and the Syria episode, now being celebrated by some as an example of the president’s shrewdness (the end of Syrian chemical weapons without the start of American bombing!), is the principal example. The president’s moral outrage was appropriate after last month’s gas attacks, and the nation shared his sense of shock even as Americans were not in awe of his response, which was changeable if not inscrutable. Still unanswered: the real timetable for the elimination of Syria’s chemical weapons, the real motive of Vladimir Putin and the resolution of Obama’s vow that Bashar Assad should pay a price for his actions. The country has lost, at least in the short term, its pre-eminence in world diplomacy. For two generations, the American

narrative — this was decidedly not the Soviet narrative, nor, after 1989, the Russian narrative — was that the United States continually had to respond to Moscow’s nefarious gambits: 1956 in Hungary, 1968 in Czechoslovakia, 1980 in Afghanistan, along with shady episodes of agitation in Nicaragua and Africa and support for rebellions in Korea and Vietnam. DAVID M. In all those situations, at least in their renderings SHRIBMAN in the West, Moscow wore the black hat or hid one in the top drawer or back closet. Now, Putin, no exemplar of democratic values, has upended the narrative. He’s taken the initiative in Syria, and in the United Nations, too, and he’s the one wearing the white hat. “The greatest honor history can bestow is the title of peacemaker,” the president whose style most resembles Putin’s, Richard M. Nixon, said in his 1969 inaugural address. Putin is luxuriating in that title. The president has lost his influence on Capitol Hill. Obama plainly could not carry his own party on Syria, which is one reason reasonable people might wonder why he decided in the first place — no, it was actually the second place — to kick the Syria can up to Capitol Hill. In doing so he only increased the specific gravity of an extremely unlikely coalition of liberals and libertarian conservatives that was drawn together by concerns over the growth of government surveillance and now comprises an unwieldy peacenik-isolationist caucus that could be dangerous to Obama in the coming years. Not that the president has the customary prerogatives granted to chief executives, such as the benefit of the doubt among members of his own party on important appointments. Only a day before Lawrence H. Summers withdrew from consideration as chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank, three members of the Senate Banking Committee, including a reliable ally,

•

Sherrod Brown of Ohio, indicated they would not back the president’s choice. The president has little reason for hope for the way forward. New tax, spending and debt-ceiling confrontations are just around a dangerous corner. The president has to be admired for his patience, commitment and resilience as he bounces from one economic crisis to another, but there is little hope he will get his way, or even get a reprieve from House Republicans, who are not inclined or motivated to compromise with him. Instead, these House Republicans took heart from the recent Wall Street Journal/ NBC News poll underlining the deep skepticism Americans still feel about the health care law that has become known as Obamacare. (Ronald Reagan once marveled that the opponents who described his economic policies as Reaganomics abandoned the name once it seemed his policies were working. Obama no doubt harbors the same hope.) That opinion poll showed that less than a third of Americans thought the measure was a good idea, as opposed to 44 percent who condemned it. This was accompanied by poll findings showing that two-thirds of those polled acknowledged they didn’t understand the law very well or only partially — not a good sign for the president nor testimony to his marketing acumen. The House Republicans no doubt will vote to repeal Obamacare a few dozen more times, a meaningless gesture except that it reinforces their determination to frustrate the president. Until the Summers withdrawal, the president was pinning his hopes on gaining GOP support for his Fed choice in the Senate (which, unlike the House, has confirmation powers). The president cannot count on Republican support for anything in the House. The result is a season of frustration for Obama and few prospects for improvements in the political atmosphere for the remainder of the year. Then comes winter. All signs point to a cold one. DAVID M. SHRIBMAN is the executive editor of the Pittsburgh Post Gazette. His email is dshribman@post-gazette.com.

What Others Say • Rodman builds team spirit in North Korea On Monday, just back from his second visit to North Korea, basketball star Dennis Rodman held a New York news conference at which he announced plans to put together a team of former NBA all-stars to play in a pair of exhibition games in North Korea in January. He also said North Korean leader

Kim Jong Un had asked him to coach North Korea’s 2016 Olympic basketball team. Rodman told American sports writers, “I’ll tell you guys one thing: Take me seriously.” The flamboyant athlete has spent a lifetime making sure that they didn’t. Rodman is exuberant, candid to a fault, covered with tattoos and body piercings; he has been known to appear in a

wedding dress. North Korean athletes keep straight faces on pain of being imprisoned. In assembling his team, Rodman certainly will want to consider North Korea’s ruler. If he’s half the athlete his father was, Rodman will certainly want him. The first time the elder Kim played golf, he made 11 holes in one, or so the story goes. Rodman, who calls Kim

“the marshal” and claims him as a good friend, has refused to intervene on behalf of an ailing, imprisoned U.S. missionary. Still, Rodman is one of the few foreigners outside of gunshot range who has found anything good to say about Kim: “If he wanted to bomb anybody in the world, he would have done it.” Evansville Courier & Press

Overprotective parents driving daughter out door DEAR ABBY: I’m a 23-year-old woman who still lives at home. I have been working for the last five years and have saved enough to live comfortably on my own. Unfortunately, my parents have forbidden me to do it because they think I’m being manipulated into it by my boyfriend, that I just want to “do whatever I want” and be out until late (although I’m rarely up past 9 p.m. and they know it), and because I “can’t stand them” anymore. I have no privacy! My mail is opened “mistakenly” and my calls are listened in on even when I politely — and sometimes angrily — ask them not to. They have even imposed a rule that I must show them my bank balance weekly. They have told me I will not leave the house without being married first. I would like to live on my own before I actually marry so I can experience what it’s like. This

is something I have always wanted to do. If I do move out, they say I’ll “bring shame and embarrassment” to the family. There seems to be a double standard going on here because my older brother has his girlfriend DEAR sleep over. ABBY How can I accommodate my Jeanne Phillips parents without being disowned? — FEELING HELPLESS DEAR FEELING HELPLESS: Your parents have chosen to ignore that you are an adult, self-supporting and entitled to make your own choices. They appear to be extremely heavy-handed. Their hyper-vigilance —

•

opening your mail, eavesdropping on your phone calls and insisting on checking your bank balance weekly — is over the top. They would like you to be “safely” married before you leave their protection. Is their problem that they disapprove of your boyfriend? If you get a place of your own, do you plan on moving him in? If that’s not the case, there is no reason why your living independently might shame or embarrass them. Not knowing your parents, I can’t judge whether their threat to disown you is serious or not. However, if it is, realize it’s a form of blackmail, and you will have to decide which is more important — your freedom or their support. DEAR ABBY 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. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

DEAR DOCTOR K: You’ve mentioned biofeedback as a treatment option for several conditions, but I still don’t understand what it is. Could you explain? DEAR READER: Biofeedback is a technique that helps you monitor and control your body’s responses. By learning to control certain functions, you can improve your medical condition, relieve chronic pain, reduce stress, or improve your physical or mental performance. During biofeedback training, a therapist attaches sensors to your body. The type and placement of sensors varies according to what is being measured. Sensors can detect changes in everything from your heart rate, skin temperature or muscle tension to your brain-wave patterns. The machine then translates its measurements into a form of immediate

— devices keep getting smaller and more powerful. Already there are sensors that attach to the skin and are so small you barely notice them. They send messages about your body through wireless signals to machines that interpret them. Some experts predict that people with certain chronic illnesses will soon be constantly monitored, day and night. The illnesses include irregular heart rhythms and epilepsy, for example. The monitoring will spot early warning signs and collect information that affects treatment. It may sound a little like Big Brother, but it could become a valuable aid in diagnosing and treating disease. DR. KOMAROFF is a physician and professor at Harvard Medical School. His website is: AskDoctorK.com.
