School board OKs teacher contract Raises now will be based on evaluations BY KATHRYN BASSETT kbassett@kpcmedia.com
WATERLOO — The DeKalb Central school board Tuesday ratified a one-year contract for DeKalb Central teachers. Because of new laws, teacher contracts no longer include annual increment raises that, for DeKalb Central teachers, amounted to about $1,500. Instead, $230,000 will be divided among teachers for pay increases.
Raises will be given only to teachers who are evaluated under a new model as being “effective” or “highly effective.” Those rated as effective will receive about $1,240, and those who receive a highly effective rating will receive about $1,355, said school district chief financial officer Lance Brauchla. “I believe this is a fair contract that maintains the integrity of operating within the parameters
of the new legislation, and I recommend your approval of the one-year contract,” Superintendent Sherry Grate told the board. “I sincerely appreciate the efforts of the DeKalb Educators negotiations team and their willingness to think about the future of our children and how we can become more progressive in our service to our students.” The district’s 2013-2014 teacher’s hiring scale shows an entry-level teacher with a bachelor’s degree and no teaching

experience will receive a salary of $36,997. At the top of the scale, a teacher with a master’s degree and 19 years of experience will receive a salary of $57,033 to $68,244. DeKalb Educators Association President Ryan Lengacher attended Tuesday’s meeting and asked the board to ensure adequate money is budgeted to teacher salaries in future years. “We need to make sure teachers just beginning their careers with us believe they can SEE CONTRACT, PAGE A6
Killer heard voices Navy yard shooter kept security rating
imately 15 Auburn police officers have $10 taken out of their checks each pay period. For the $10, officers become eligible to sport trimmed goatees on duty. Saturday’s event brought 45 officers from around the state to Auburn. Departments represented included the Indianapolis and South Bend police departments and officers from Chesterton, the Indiana State Police and numerous sheriff’s departments from Indiana and Ohio. A special prize was given to a retired officer from South Dakota, who arranged a visit home to see relatives in LaGrange County so he could participate in the shoot. The overall winner of the competition was state police Trooper Caleb Anderson. Second place was secured by last year’s winner, Sheldon Scott of the South Bend Police Department. State police Sgt. Corey Culler was third, followed by Auburn Police Department Capt. Mark Stump. Trooper Brian Walker placed fifth. This year, organizers tweaked the event by allowing two compet-
WASHINGTON (AP) — The former Navy reservist who killed 12 people at the Washington Navy Yard had been hearing voices and was undergoing treatment in the weeks before the shooting rampage, but was not stripped of his security clearance, officials said Tuesday. Aaron Alexis, a 34-year-old information technology employee with a defense contractor, used a valid pass to get into the highly secured installation Monday morning and started firing inside a building, the FBI said. He was killed in a gun Alexis battle with police. The motive for the mass shooting — the deadliest on a military installation in the U.S. since the attack at Fort Hood, Texas, in 2009 — was a mystery, investigators said. U.S. law enforcement officials told The Associated Press that there was no known connection to terrorism and that investigators have found no manifesto or other writings suggesting a political or religious motive. Alexis had been suffering a host of serious mental problems, including paranoia and a sleep disorder, and had been hearing voices in his head, according to the officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the criminal investigation was still going on. He had been treated since August by Veterans Affairs, the officials said. The Navy had not declared him

Police marksmen raise money Department seeks to update shooting range BY MATT GETTS mgetts@kpcmedia.com
AUBURN — Shot by shot Saturday, the Auburn Police Department moved a little closer to a new training facility structure at its shooting range south of the city. The second annual marksmanship competition raised approximately $3,000, according to event organizer Stacy Sexton, a detective with the Auburn Police Department. “I’m very pleased with the turnout,” Sexton said. “I’m very pleased with the sponsors and vendors who are here.” For more than a year, the Auburn Police Department has been raising money to replace its dilapidated training building at the range with a new structure. The estimated cost of the new facility,
which would increase the training room size by nearly three times, is $300,000, Sexton said. “This will be the hub for training in DeKalb County,” Sexton said. “It will be a whole lot easier to do training.” With a larger training room, police will be able to hold large classes, with room for such things as defensive tactic training as well as Anderson honing marksmanship skills. Departments that routinely use the facility now include the DeKalb, Noble and Steuben county sheriff’s departments, Waterloo, Ashley, Kendallville, Rome City and Wolcottville police departments. The Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms also shoots in Auburn. So far, the department has raised $104,000 to build the new facility, a figure that includes no tax dollars.

Auburn takes stock of accessibility features Walter calls for lower speeds on Grandstaff Drive BY AARON ORGAN aorgan@kpcmedia.com
AUBURN — The Auburn Common Council on Tuesday evening passed on first reading the city’s completed inventory of the federally required Americans with Disabilities Act transition plan. The plan lists an inventory of all city street crossings, sidewalks
Children’s Clothing & Toy Resale
and handicap-access ramps, as well as out-of-code bathroom handles, door frames and other issues, that need attention to comply with ADA policy. The plan further prioritizes the items so they can be tended to as city funds become available. City engineer Steve Bruns said he and staff spent countless hours creating the inventory. The city spent $11,000 for a consultant to prepare the plan and report. Mayor Norm Yoder said the projects will be completed in order, based on importance and when funds are available. Bruns said many items will be handled
while other repairs or updates are made, but others would require a complete overhaul of entire buildings, for example. Yoder said if a resident comes across an issue within the city that requires attention, the city will make accommodations to tend to those issues. In other business Tuesday, Councilman Mike Walter asked council attorney Erik Weber to prepare an amendment to the city’s traffic ordinance to reduce the speed limit on the full length of Grandstaff Drive to 30 mph, a measure he hopes would reduce traffic crashes at the exit from

Auburn Plaza onto the roadway. In June, Walter requested a study of the intersection after reporting a rash of traffic crashes caused when motorists try to turn north onto Grandstaff from the plaza. A study presented to the council in July by the Northeast Indiana Regional Coordinating Council, though, showed the exit onto South Grandstaff Drive is safer than similar intersections around the state, with a total of 11 crashes since 2008, which translates to 0.6 crashes per million vehicles.

Butler selling water bonds BY JEFF JONES jjones@kpcmedia.com
BUTLER — Later this month, the city of Butler will begin the process of selling bonds to pay for a water main improvement project. Monday, the City Council approved the second reading of an ordinance authorizing the project that will increase the average residential water bill by $7 per month. By Sept. 30, a draft of a bond ordinance will be prepared. At the City Council’s Oct. 21 meeting, the bond ordinance will be introduced, with first passage slated to take place at the Nov. 4 meeting. Bond bids are slated to be opened Dec. 4, with closing set to take place Dec. 19, according to city attorney Gerald McNerney. The total bond issuance is expected to be $1 million to $1.4 million, he added. City officials want to replace 100-year-old water mains in the 100 and 200 blocks of South Broadway in 2014, as the Indiana Department of Transportation has indicated it intends to pave S.R. 1 (Broadway) in 2015. City superintendent Ted Miller said he will meet with INDOT officials in Butler Monday to discuss the water main work. City officials also have a meeting in Indianapolis Monday with architects about the Steel Dynamics Inc. force main extension project. In other business Monday, Clerk-Treasurer Angela Eck announced the city’s health insurance premiums for its employees will increase 25 percent. Currently, Butler employees pay 10 percent of the insurance cost. The insurance committee — City Councilmen Eric Johnson and Larry Moore — did
The
not want to pass along the increases to employees, so the higher cost will be absorbed within the budget through the end of 2013. The city can absorb the cost until the end of the year, Eck said. It also gives city officials time to look for a better insurance package. By 4-0 votes — Johnson was absent — the City Council approved separate second readings of salary ordinances for elected officials and city employees. The council also approved the final reading of amendments to a smoking ordinance after no one appeared at a public hearing. The amended ordinance prohibits smoking on or in any city-owned property, including parks and athletic fields. No one addressed the City Council during a public hearing about the proposed 2014 budget, which checks in at just under $2.4 million. The budget is slated for adoption at a future meeting. Later, Mayor Ron Walter announced the Indiana Department of Environmental Management has found the City of Butler to be in violation of combined sewer overflow (CSO) guidelines related to stormwater. The city’s consultant, Dave Wagner of Millennium Environmental, is working on Butler’s response to the violation notice. Butler officials must come up with a long-term CSO plan to prevent incidents from happening again. Earlier, the Butler Board of Works approved a $199,687 low bid from API Construction of LaOtto to repair several streets. The board, however, plans to issue a change order to scale the project back to $164,300 to meet its budget. API officials are aware of the change order plan.

Man sentenced for child molesting BY AMY OBERLIN aoberlin@kpcmedia.com
ANGOLA — A Hamilton man was sentenced to 24 years in prison Monday in Steuben Circuit Court for the repeated molestation of an 8-year-old girl. Zachariah M. Dirrim, 23, pleaded guilty to two Class B felony counts and one Class C felony count of child molesting. Judge Allen Wheat sentenced him to 10 years for each Class B felony, with an additional four years for the C felony. Because of the victim’s age, Dirrim is a credit-restricted felon. Instead of receiving a day of credit for each day he serves in prison with good behavior, Dirrim
will receive a day of credit for every six days he serves. He received credit for 537 days served in jail before his sentencing. “The devil will see you burn in eternal hell,” the victim’s grandmother said Monday in a statement directed to Dirrim. “What she told me you put her through just makes me want to vomit.” The grandmother thanked Steuben County Sheriff’s Detective Chris Emerick and the Steuben County Prosecutor’s Office for bringing Dirrim to justice. The incidents occurred at a rural Hamilton residence in late December 2011 and early January 2012. “You pretended to be this sweet, caring guy,” said the
Realtors report strong August sales in region FORT WAYNE — The Upstar Alliance of Realtors released its August 2013 local housing report Tuesday, covering seven counties in and around Fort Wayne. The alliance said home sales remain strong, and declining inventory continues to favor sellers. Comparing August 2013 figures to the same month last year, market indicators showed: • New listings increased by 3 percent to 1,045. • Pending sales were up 6.5 percent to 701. • Closed sales increased 1.8 percent to 696. • Inventory levels shrank 7.5 percent to 3,477 units. • The median sales price increased 4.6 percent to $115,000. • The percentage of original list price received increased 1.7 percent to 93.5. • The supply of inventory was down by 17.6 percent to 5.6 months. The alliance report includes the counties of Adams, Allen, DeKalb, Huntington, Noble, Wells and Whitley.
DeKalb County reported 38 closed sales in August, five more than a year ago. The median sales price was $119,500, up nearly $10,000 from the previous year. Sellers received 93.7 percent of original list price, an improvement from 91.4 percent a year earlier. The inventory of single-family homes for sale stood at 187, a decrease of 16. Noble County reported 24 closed sales in August, a decrease from 43 one year ago. The median sales price of $91,500 was a 13 percent increase. Buyers received 90.6 percent of original list price, an improvement from 86.3 percent one year ago. The inventory of singlefamily homes for sale grew to 228, an increase of 21 homes. “Confidence in the market is growing as we see buyers and sellers jumping off the fence before interest rates rise and the winter season arrives,” said Phil Stinson, 2013 Upstar MLS President. “We continue to see multiple offers as buyers compete for well priced, well staged homes.”
girl’s mother. “You took advantage of a sweet little girl.” The girl suffered a seizure in her sleep not long ago, among other serious effects from the incident. “I hope you look in the mirror Dirrim and see another soulless coward in a sea of faces in prison,” the mother said, adding that Dirrim no longer exists to her family. When he is released from prison, Dirrim must be on the sex offender registry for life.
In his statement, Dirrim denied ever touching a child and said he’d baby-sat 22 children in his life. “I’ve still got people out there who want me to watch their kids,” Dirrim said. A competency hearing was conducted Dec. 3, 2012, following evaluations by two mental health professionals. Dirrim, represented by public defender Linda Wagoner, was found competent to stand trial. He originally was charged with two Class A felony charges and the Class C felony. On Aug. 15, the court approved the amendment of counts I-III and the filing of additional counts — the Class B felonies to which Dirrim pleaded guilty.
Regional Roundup • 1 dead, 1 missing in house explosion STONY RIDGE, Ohio (AP) — An explosion leveled a home in northwest Ohio early Tuesday, leaving one person dead and another missing.

Kokomo hospital cutting staff KOKOMO (AP) — Employees at a central Indiana hospital are facing job cuts as Community Howard Regional Health will reduce its current workforce by 50 positions over the next few weeks. Officials of the Kokomo hospital said the job cuts are needed because of fewer patients being hospitalized, uncertainty with the federal health care overhaul and reductions in Medicare and private insurance reimbursement.
Grandma’s neglect sentence upheld SOUTH BEND (AP) — The Indiana Court of Appeals has upheld the 50-year sentence for a northern Indiana woman on three counts of neglect for ignoring the abuse of three grandchildren, including one who died. The appeals panel Tuesday rejected the appeal of 53-year-old Dellia Castile of South Bend. A jury convicted Castile last October in connection with November 2011 death of 10-year-old Tramelle Sturgis and the abuse of his two brothers. Their father, Terry Sturgis, is serving 140 years in prison on his convictions for murder and other charges.
Former youth pastor pleads guilty HARTFORD CITY (AP) — The former youth pastor at a northeastern Indiana church has been sentenced to eight years in prison for sexual relationship with a teenage church member. Thirty-three-year-old Joseph Pennington of Hartford City pleaded guilty during Monday’s court hearing to felony sexual misconduct charges. Authorities say he committed sex acts with the 15-year-old girl while he was the part-time director of youth ministries at Hartford City Wesleyan Church in 2010 and 2011.
New rule requires meeting for jobless benefits INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Unemployed Indiana residents risk losing their jobless benefits if they fail to show up for an in-person meeting required under a new rule taking effect next month. Department of Workforce
Development will begin mailing notices in mid-October to unemployed Hoosiers who’ve received at least four weeks’ worth of jobless benefits. Those individuals will need to schedule an in-person meeting at a local
WorkOne office, where they must show a photo ID and provide proof that they’ve been looking for work. Agency spokesman Joe Frank says the provision is aimed at cutting unemployment fraud and making sure
people use the agency’s resources to speed their return to work. Unemployment recipients who repeatedly fail to show up for an in-person meeting will have their benefits cut off until they meet the provision.

magazines including articles on Lin’s theory of Flux and its applications such as nuclear fusion reaction for energy production; and the principle of conversion from equilibrium and non-equilibrium reactions for increase of reaction rate and resulting product concentration, etc. In 1974, Ping started inventing on his own and established 17 patents in the field of air pollution control, construction materials, water and wastewater treatment, soil and foundation stabilization, etc. In 1988, he founded and became the CEO of Lin Technologies in the ’80s. In 1973, he developed a sulfur dioxide (responsible for acid rain) removal process from stack gas where the by-product could be used for water and wastewater treatment and construction materials. Later he developed a novel method for constructing sub-jacent foundations which required soil freezing and tunneling and was particularly designed for stabilization of the Leaning Tower of Pisa. He was also a resident associate for Argonne National Laboratory in Argonne, Ill., in 1977.

His last professional appearance was presenting a paper in China in 2008. Lin has dedicated his working life to environmental engineering and is responsible for the Lin Theory of Flux, a pioneering development in fluid systems which bears his name. It can lead to more efficient and economic industrial processes and could have a far-reaching impact on fuel consumption, global warming, and the migration of pollution. The theory has been substantiated by many published scientific accounts and by the pilot plant studies. It can be the basis for the development of far more efficient and economic processes. He believed, if utilized, the application of the theory would promote world economy; and result in the reduction of energy consumption and mitigation of the adverse effects of pollution and global warming on our environment. He had ideas on sulphuric acid production based on his revolutionary approach and unlike conventional methods do not require catalytic converters or drying towers, resulting in a simple cheap and energy efficient process. Dr. Lin won many awards. Some of them are the International Peace
Prize, United Culture Conventions, USA (daring to soar and creating a Harmony of Humankind), Achievement Award by the United Inventors and Scientists of America. Lin is listed in various years of publications like Who’s Who in American Inventors, Honorary Award from Chinese Electrical Engineering, Industry’s Directory of Technical Biography, Who’s Who in Engineering, Who’s Who in Technology Today, Who’s Who in Midwest, Who’s Who in Science and Technology, Who’s Who in Education, Who’s Who in the World (13th-16th ed), 500 Greatest Geniuses of the 21st Century, American Biographical Institute, 500 Founders of the 21st Century, American Men & Women of Science, Men of Achievement, International Who’s Who of Intellectuals, Men of Distinction, Leaders of American Science, and International Book of Honor.

WASHINGTON (AP) — A dozen people died in a shooting rampage Monday at the Washington Navy Yard. It was the deadliest attack at a domestic military installation since November 2009, when an Army psychiatrist killed 13 people and wounded 30 others at Fort Hood, Texas. Early Tuesday, the stories of some of those who died started to surface. • Michael Arnold, 59, of Lorton, Va., was a Navy veteran and avid pilot who was building a light airplane at his home, said his uncle, Steve Hunter. “It would have been the first plane he ever owned,â€? Hunter said in a telephone interview from Rochester, Mich., Arnold’s hometown. “It’s partially assembled in his basement.â€? • Sylvia Frasier, 53, had worked at Naval Sea Systems Command as an information assurance manager since 2000, according to a LinkedIn profile in her name.

Frasier studied at Strayer University, earning a bachelor of science in computer information systems in 2000 and a master’s in information systems in 2002. • Kathleen Gaarde, 63, of Woodbridge, Va., was a financial analyst who supported the organization responsible for the shipyards, her husband, Douglass, wrote in an email to the AP Tuesday. • Frank Kohler, 50, was a past president of the Rotary Club in Lexington Park, Md. As such, he proudly held the title of “King Oysterâ€? at the annual festival celebrating the region’s signature bivalve the third weekend of each October. “He walks around with a crown and robe and gives out candy,â€? said Bob Allen, Kohler’s former boss at Lockheed Martin in southern Maryland. “In fact, he was in charge of the beer stand. I used to have that job and when I left, I handed it off to him.â€?
• Information technology specialist Mary Knight, 51, of Reston, Va., was the daughter of a former Green Beret instructor, according to Theodore Hisey, who identified himself as a family spokesman. Her father served at the Fort Bragg Army installation and retired in Fayetteville, N.C., Hisey said. Knight’s mother, Liliana, told a Raleigh television station that the shootings were a test of faith. • Marine engineer and naval architect Vishnu Pandit, 61, preferred the nickname Kisan, the Hindi word for “peasant.â€? It suited the hard-working Indian immigrant, known for his devotion to family, community and his 30-year civilian Navy career. “He was very dedicated to improving the performance of naval ships and systems,â€? longtime friend M.

mentally unfit, which would have rescinded a security clearance Alexis had from his earlier time in the Navy Reserve. The assault is likely to raise more questions about the adequacy of the background checks done on contract employees and others who are issued security clearances — an issue that came up most recently with National Security Agency leaker Edward Snowden, an IT employee with a government contractor. Navy Secretary Ray Mabus ordered two security reviews Tuesday to look at how well the Navy protects its bases and how accurately it screens its workers. A
senior defense official also said Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel intends to order a review of physical security and access at all department installations worldwide. In the hours after the Navy Yard attack, a profile of Alexis began coming into focus. A Buddhist convert who had also had flare-ups of rage, Alexis, a black man who grew up in New York City and whose last known address was in Fort Worth, Texas, complained about the Navy and being a victim of discrimination. He also had run-ins with the law over shootings in 2004 and 2010 in Texas and Seattle, and was ticketed for disorderly conduct after being thrown
out of a metro Atlanta nightclub in 2008. Alexis’ bouts of insubordination, disorderly conduct and being absent from work without authorization prompted the Navy to grant him an early — but honorable — discharge in 2011 after nearly four years as a full-time reservist, authorities said. During his service, he repaired aircraft electrical systems at Fort Worth. In addition to those killed at the Navy Yard attack, eight people were hurt, including three who were shot and wounded, authorities said. Those three were a police officer and two female civilians. They were all expected to survive.

the plaza up to 32.6 mph south of the plaza. Yoder said considering those figures, lowering the speed limit on the stretch “would not be inconveniencing anybody.� In response to Walter’s request for a traffic ordinance amendment,
Councilman Jim Finchum said, “From the data I’ve heard, I see no reason to change (the speed limit).� The council also heard from Yoder that the city’s 2014 operating budget is complete. The budget will be presented to the council at its Oct. 1 meeting.

FORT WAYNE (AP) — U.S. Rep. Marlin Stutzman says his vote against proposed rules for the House debate on the federal farm bill cost him his position with the Republican leadership team. Stutzman was removed as an assistant whip, or vote counter, for congressional Republicans because he opposed the GOP leadership’s limits on which farm bill amendments would be debated. “I did vote against Stutzman the rule, and I knew it would cost me my position as assistant whip,� Stutzman told The Journal Gazette. “One of the requirements is you have to vote for all the rules with leadership if you’re on the whip team.� Stutzman was first elected to northeastern Indiana’s 3rd District seat in 2010. His vote in June came after the House Rules Committee rejected his proposed amendments to separate agriculture programs from the food stamp program, which account for about 80 percent of farm bill spending. Stutzman was among only four Republicans in the
“I think I proved out that I was right under the circumstances.�
U.S. Rep. Marlin Stutzman R-Indiana
• 233-member caucus who voted against GOP rules for considering the bill. A day later, Stutzman and 61 other Republicans joined 172 Democrats in defeating the farm bill. Three weeks later, House Republicans narrowly passed legislation to split agriculture programs and food stamps. “I think that I proved out that I was right under the circumstances,â€? he said. Stutzman said he remains on good terms with Republican leaders. Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., is scheduled to attend an October fundraiser for Stutzman in Indiana. The House could vote on a bill this week that would cut the nearly $80 billiona-year food stamp program by an estimated $4 billion annually. and allow states to put broad new work requirements in place for recipients.

Tigers, Reds earns wins DETROIT (AP) — Miguel Cabrera homered, Austin Jackson hit a two-run single and the Detroit Tigers held on despite a short-handed bullpen, beating the Seattle Mariners 6-2 on Tuesday night. The AL Central-leading Tigers were ahead 3-2 when they escaped a bases-loaded jam in the eighth while playing without closer Joaquin Benoit and left-handed reliever Drew Smyly. They were both given the night off. Anibal Sanchez struck out 10 in 6 1-3 innings, but the Mariners tied it at 2 against him in the seventh, forcing Detroit’s relievers into action.
Al Alburquerque (3-3) got out of the seventh, and Phil Coke and Jose Alvarez made it through a dodgy eighth. Alvarez got two outs in the ninth, and Jose Veras finished. Yoervis Medina (4-6) took the loss. Reds 10, Astros 0 Jay Bruce hit a grand slam and had 5 RBIs, Mike Leake pitched eight scoreless innings and the Cincinnati Reds cruised to a 10-0 win over Houston on Tuesday night, handing the Astros their 100th loss. Cincinnati is 4½ games ahead of Washington for second NL wild card.
The Astros are the first major league team to lose at least 100 games in three straight seasons since Kansas City from 2004-06. The Reds got to work early, with Zack Cozart driving in two runs in a four-run first inning. Cincinnati was up by five in the fourth before Bruce’s towering slam to the Crawford Boxes in left field pushed the lead to 9-0 and chased Jordan Lyles (7-8). Leake (14-6) allowed five hits over eight innings and struck out six with two walks. Sean Marshall, who hadn’t pitched since May 20 because of shoulder tendinitis, threw a perfect ninth to complete the shutout.

Home sweet home ND seeks to match longest home streak in 15 years SOUTH BEND (AP) — Notre Dame Stadium is a tough place to play again, thanks in part to Ozzy Osbourne’s “Crazy Train.” Coach Brian Kelly has made the “House that Rockne Built” a tough win after nearly a decade of mediocrity. The 22nd-ranked Fighting Irish (2-1) enter Saturday’s game against Michigan State (3-0) on a nine-game home winning streak, the longest such streak at the school since winning 10 straight under Bob Davie in 1997-98. Kelly made some subtle changes in how the team prepares for games, such as moving the
pregame Mass from the morning of the game to a day earlier. Some other small schedule changes were made to help the players, he said. “It’s given them the opportunity to regroup a little bit, focus in on the game and not all the other things that are going on around the campus,” he said. The school helped out by trying to enliven what is known as a quiet stadium by piping in music during the game, such as “Crazy Train” — a staple when the opponent is facing third down — and playing Dropkick Murphys’ “I’m Shipping Up to Boston” before the opening kickoff.
The university first started piping in music when Notre Dame played its first home night game in 21 years, a 31-17 loss to USC two years ago. The Irish haven’t lost at home since, going undefeated at home last season for the time since 1998. “They like that extra energy of the music,” Kelly said. Michigan has the nation’s longest home winning streak at 17 games, while South Carolina and Georgia are tied for second at 13 and Notre Dame’s streak is tied for sixth longest in the nation.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — Ian Kinsler and Elvis Andrus homered and drove in three runs each and the Texas Rangers snapped a seven-game losing streak with a 7-1 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays on Tuesday night. The Rangers pulled even with the Rays at the top of the AL wild-card race. The Rangers, who held the No. 1 wild-card spot or the AL West lead for most of the summer, won for only the fourth time in 17 games. Kinsler hit Jeremy Hellickson’s first pitch for his 12th home run, breaking a streak of seven homerless games for the Rangers, their longest in 23 years. The 1-0 lead marked the first time Texas has led in a game since its last victory, on Sept. 8. Kinsler added a two-run single in the Rangers’ four-run third, driving in three runs on the first two pitches he saw from Hellickson (11-9). Andrus followed with his third home run of the season to put the Rangers up 5-0. Alexi Ogando (7-4) won in his first start since Aug. 13, giving up two hits in five innings. He had made four relief appearances after spending three weeks on the disabled list with shoulder inflammation. Ogando retired the first seven Rays he faced, the last four with strikeouts, before Jose Lobaton homered in the third inning. Leonys Martin doubled twice and added a ninth-inning home run, his eighth of the season.
Late Scots goal beats Trine men BY KEN FILLMORE kfillmore@kpcmedia.com

Trine freshman Bill Wilson possesses the ball and shields it away from an Alma player in the Scots’ defensive third of the field during second half play of a Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association men’s soccer match Tuesday afternoon at Trine’s Weaver Field. Wilson scored his fourth goal of the season late in the first half, but the Thunder lost to Alma 4-3.
ANGOLA — Trine University’s men’s soccer team kept up with an undefeated Alma club Tuesday afternoon in the opening Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association match for both teams at Weaver Field. But the Scots got a late go-ahead goal from Chad Buitenhuis with 2 minutes, 53 seconds left and escaped with a 4-3 victory on the road to win their fifth straight match to start the season. “The guys are not used to scoring goals like this at Alma,” Scots coach Josh Oakley said. “Our defense left a lot to be desired. But to our credit, we overcame that. “I like to think that this was not our best effort. But the opponent had a lot to do with that. Trine made it difficult on us.” Alma (5-0, 1-0 MIAA) has now scored 25 goals in the midst of a possible turnaround season. It only had 22 goals in all of 2012 when it went 7-12-1. The Thunder (2-3-1, 0-1 MIAA) are a young team in transition. They were on the outside of the four-team MIAA Tournament mix last season in fifth place at 6-7-1 (8-10-1 overall). Among their graduation losses, they lost two key players up front in Andre
Hilson, a third team All-Central Region forward last year by the National Soccer Coaches Association of America, and Curtis Holcom. Trine had answers three times after Alma took one-goal leads on Tuesday. Freshman Bill Wilson and Samuel Seibolt scored late in the first half and the match was even at 2 at halftime. The Thunder made something out of not much as sophomore Nick Lang made a perfect shot from a little over 15 yards away inside the far left post to tie the game at 3 with a little over 13 minutes left. “That was a laser,” Oakley said. Trine had two big chances with around 6 and a half minutes left. Alma goalkeeper Graham Wallace punched a high direct free kick from freshman Zach O’Brien over the crossbar. Then a header from Chris Short off a Thunder corner kick went off the crossbar. Wallace dove to his right to rob Karston Shephard with a little over 20 minutes left in regulation. “Our offense is in stride,” Trine second-year coach Trevor Ferrell said. “We kind of dominated play for most of the first half. We played hard and finished our chances. But they were doing the same thing.” SEE TRINE, PAGE B2

IRISH: MSU
up next for ND FROM PAGE B1
Kelly got off to a rough start at Notre Dame Stadium, going 6-5 in his first 11 home games, including stunning losses to Tulsa and South Florida. But the problems started long before Kelly arrived. His predecessor, Charlie Weis, was just 19-14 at home — a 57.6 winning percentage. Under Weis, the Irish lost to Navy twice at home, and also fell to Air Force and Syracuse, the first eight-loss team to beat the Irish, and sustained the second worst loss in stadium history, a 38-0 defeat to Michigan in 2007. Before that, Tyrone Willingham was a mediocre 11-7 at Notre Dame Stadium, including a 37-0 loss to Florida State. Kelly believes the biggest change is the Irish players have taken on a tenacious attitude at home. “I’ve always wanted our teams to play hard for four quarters and just fight really hard and we’ll figure out a way to win the games,” he said. The streak, by Notre Dame standards, isn’t all that impressive. After all, Notre Dame won 40 straight at home from 1907 through 1918 and 38 straight under Knute Rockne, whose teams were 45-1-2 in South Bend. But after nine years of struggle, it’s a welcome change even for those who aren’t big fans of Ozzy Osbourne. NOTES: Starting defensive end Sheldon Day sprained his ankle against Purdue.
TRINE: Alma strikes with game-winner FROM PAGE B1
Buitenhuis had more space to work with before blasting what turned out to be the game-winning goal past Thunder goalie Chris Stewart. Shephard, a mainstay in the Thunder midfield, fell to the ground after getting spiked at the top of a foot as he competed for a ball with an Alma player. He hopped off the pitch after the goal and had that lower leg wrapped heavily. Ferrell said Shephard should be OK. Ferrell is more comfortable leading a college soccer program in his second season at the helm. The Angola High graduate is the son of former longtime Thunder men’s coach Mike Ferrell. Mike is Trevor’s assistant head coach. “There are a few things we have to shore up. But I’m happy with how things are coming together,” Trevor Ferrell said. “I have a good group of guys to work with.”

SPORTS BRIEFS • Colts put Donald Thomas on injured reserve list INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The Colts have placed left guard Donald Thomas on injured reserve and waived fullback Dan Moore. Thomas tore a quad tendon in his right leg during the first quarter of Sunday’s 24-20 loss to Miami. Coach Chuck Pagano said Monday that Thomas would undergo seasonending surgery. He is expected to be replaced in Indy’s lineup by rookie Hugh Thornton, a third-round draft pick. Moore signed with the Colts as an undrafted rookie in April after playing at Montana. He injured his shoulder early in training camp and was put on injured reserve after being waived Aug. 19 and clearing waivers. The Colts announced the moves on Tuesday.
Luck taking different tack with endorsement deals INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Andrew Luck isn’t taking endorsement calls. He’s making them. Five months after Luck first started using a new sports drink during offseason workouts, the Colts quarterback and Bodyarmor announced they had reached a multiyear agreement for Luck to promote the product. Contract details were not provided, though Luck will receive an equity stake in the company. The advertising campaign kicked off Tuesday and will soon include television commercials in Indy and other markets featuring the Colts’ franchise quarterback. After giving up his final year of eligibility at Stanford to enter the NFL draft, Luck had many opportunities to make big bucks endorsing major products. He turned most of them down, just like his predecessor in Indianapolis, Peyton Manning. Manning, Tiger Woods and others have become high-profile pitchmen for major products. Luck, however, has been picky about the brands he chooses. So far, he’s gone primarily after deals with lower-profile products that he uses and says he believes in. “I make sure I only do endorsement things for products I enjoy,” Luck said. While Luck may have lost out on the big paydays in the short-term, marketing experts believe Luck will be able to recoup that money in the long-term — if he continues to be successful on the field.
Pelicans training center finished in time for camp METAIRIE, La. (AP) — The New Orleans Pelicans’ new $15 million practice headquarters is complete and ready for training camp, which opens Oct. 1. The facility includes two full-size courts, player and staff locker rooms, a weight room, a stadium-style theater for video review, meeting rooms, a dining area and offices. The building sits on the same property as the practice headquarters and front offices for the New Orleans Saints. Both clubs are owned by Tom Benson, who received $10 million in state money for the Pelicans’ practice center. The state money was set aside in 2002, when the franchise, then known as the Hornets, moved to new Orleans from Charlotte. Meanwhile, team president Dennis Lauscha says the club has surpassed 12,000 in season tickets for the first time in New Orleans.
Fed court nixes N.J. appeal in sports betting case NEWARK, N.J. (AP) — A federal appeals court dealt another blow to New Jersey’s efforts to legalize sports gambling Tuesday, upholding a ruling that the state’s betting law conflicts with federal law and shouldn’t be implemented. The case was heard by a three-judge panel at the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia, and the state could seek to have the case re-heard by the full appeals court. But Tuesday’s ruling more likely means New Jersey’s last chance to legalize sports gambling is to ask the U.S. Supreme Court to hear the case. In March, U.S. District Judge Michael Shipp ruled that some of the questions raised in the case were novel, but he suggested the best way to change the U.S. law was to get Congress to repeal or amend the 1992 Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act. Tuesday’s appellate ruling, by a 2-1 majority, reinforced Shipp’s view. In a dissenting opinion, Judge Thomas Vanaskie agreed substantially with his two colleagues but differed in his interpretation of PASPA, a law that allowed state-sanctioned sports gambling only in Nevada and three other states. “PASPA attempts to implement federal policy by telling the states that they may not regulate an otherwise unregulated activity,” Vanaskie wrote. “The Constitution affords Congress no such power.” Gov. Chris Christie’s spokesman on Tuesday reiterated that the administration would take the case to the Supreme Court if necessary. “In the dissent, the judge agrees with New Jersey’s central argument — that the law is unconstitutional since it prevents sports betting in New Jersey against the wishes of its own elected officials and citizens,” spokesman Colin Reed said in an email. “This makes the issue all the more appropriate to be decided by the U.S. Supreme Court.”

Twerking to fame Thanks to the explosion of reality television, being famous no longer requires being talented. Being a train wreck also now qualifies a person to have his or her name thrown about the celebrity show circuit (aka circus). If you tan yourself into a orangeish shade of poor embalming, you can become famous. If you leave your children in your Range Rover while you enjoy a 12-pack at the bar, you can become famous. Or you could twerk, like former Disney poster child Miley Cyrus. The topic of recent conversation, I finally had to MATT ask around the office for a definition of what twerking GETTS is. No one at the office would divulge it to me. After some light research, I discovered that twerking is a suggestive dance. OK, that’s putting it mildly. Like describing ice as being slightly cool. Or the surface of the sun being lukewarm. For the sake of those around me, I have never been much of a dancer. Convulsive. That’s a good word to describe my technique. Seizure-like also fits. For a couple of weeks, Cyrus has made waves because of her dance moves on the MTV Video Music Cyrus was not lauded Awards for her singing talents show. Once after the show. She was upon a time, lauded for being dirty. Cyrus was the darling of the Disney Channel. She had her own show. It was wildly popular. She appeared wholesome, and her acting talent — such as it was — seemed fit for a cheesy, G-rated sitcom. The Disney show ran its course, and apparently young Miss Cyrus had to find something else to fill her time. So she went bawdy, to put it mildly. Which is her choice. She will get rich from it. Yawn. Judging the dance on its merits is not my thing. My thing is also not about the sexuality implied (aka overtly stated). A social conservative, I would not consider myself prudish. Sexuality, after all, pretty much is necessary to continue the existence of the human race. My thing is all the talk about what she did. Cyrus was not lauded for her singing talents after the show. She was lauded for being dirty. Sadly, we have all had a time in our lives when we wanted to be famous. I wanted to be a Major League Baseball player when I was very young. I saw the players on television, and it seemed an awesome opportunity. Athletic achievements take a back seat for air time when something like twerking comes along. Pretty much everyone has heard of Cyrus’ sexy dancing. Sex sells. It entices. Will it stand the test of time? Ask Britney Spears, who has all but dissolved from public view. Then look at the Rolling Stones. These guys have talent. They have endured because of it. Talent makes things happens. It builds things. It lifts the human spirit. Young people today want to be famous, just like we did when we were younger. They know they can get it by being perverse in public. Like it or not, Cyrus is a role model. And a poor one at that. Society, as a whole, seems bent on becoming famous, whatever it takes. What ever happened to wanting to be talented?

Briefs • Mega Millions changing games for bigger prizes DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — If it seems that giant lottery jackpots have people lining up at convenience stores more frequently, just wait: More big payouts could be coming. Most attention has been on Powerball jackpots since the game’s rules were changed in early 2012 to boost payoffs. On Wednesday, Powerball’s estimated $400 million jackpot will be the nation’s fifth-largest ever. Now organizers of the country’s other big lottery, Mega Millions, are planning changes of their own. Although Mega Millions still holds the record for the largest jackpot in U.S. history — a $656 million prize in March 2012 — organizers are hoping to more regularly see huge jackpots by lessening the odds of winning big but upping a player’s shot at smaller but still hefty prizes. “Certainly, we were looking at the fact that changes that Powerball made, primarily by increasing the price point, it definitely favorably impacted the jackpot,” said Paula Otto, executive director for the Virginia Lottery and lead director for Mega Millions.
Tourists stranded by Mexico flooding ACAPULCO, Mexico (AP) — Emergency flights began arriving in Acapulco Tuesday to evacuate some of the tens of thousands of tourists stranded in the resort city by flooding and landslides that shut down the highway to Mexico City and swamped the international airport. The death toll rose to 38 from the combined punch of Tropical Storm Manuel, which hit Acapulco and hundreds of miles of Mexico’s Pacific Coast, and Hurricane Ingrid, which battered the Gulf Coast over the weekend. As many as 60,000 tourists, many of whom traveled from Mexico City for a long holiday weekend, found themselves stranded in Acapulco, with the airport flooded and highways blocked by landslides and flooding caused by Manuel.
People • Britney announces Vegas commitment NEW YORK (AP) — After months of rumors and hint-dropping, pop icon Britney Spears revealed what she called her “(not-so-) secret” news — she’s heading to Las Vegas. The 31-year-old pop star confirmed a two-year residency at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino on Spears ABC’s “Good Morning America” on Tuesday. “Britney: Piece of Me” will debut Dec. 27, just in time for Las Vegas’ massive New Year’s crowds. Spears announced 16 dates, but she will perform 50 shows each in 2014 and 2015. Spears was airlifted to a dry lake bed in the Nevada desert for the predawn announcement. About 1,300 people had been bused to the remote location in the wee hours of the morning, and were waiting for her dressed in Britney Spears T-shirts or the singer’s signature schoolgirl look from her “… Baby One More Time” music video. The Grammy-winning singer’s confirmation about the residency comes after much online speculation, including some of her own Vegas-themed tweets. She said in an interview on “GMA” that the show will feature her greatest hits as well as new material.

Russia still opposes force against Syria DAMASCUS, Syria (AP) — Russia insisted Tuesday that a U.N. Security Council resolution governing Syria’s handling of its chemical weapons not allow the use of force, but it suggested that could change if Damascus reneges on the deal to give up its stockpile. The main Syrian opposition coalition, meanwhile, urged the international community to take swift action against the regime of President Bashar Assad in response to a U.N. finding that the nerve agent sarin was used in a deadly attack near the capital last month. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said his country “spoke clearly” about rejecting the use of force when the chemical weapons agreement was worked out Saturday in Geneva between Washington and Moscow. The plan calls for an inventory of Syria’s chemical weapons within a week, with all components of the program out of the country or destroyed by mid-2014. But if signs emerge that Syria is not fulfilling the agreement or there are reports of further chemical weapons use, “then the Security Council will examine the situation,” Lavrov said, suggesting the issue could be reconsidered. U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said a resolution on the U.S.-Russia deal must be enforceable, telling reporters that the “most effective” way is under Chapter 7 of the U.N. Charter. That deals with threats to international peace and security and has provisions for enforcement by military or non-military means, such as sanctions. While in principle all Security Council resolutions are legally binding, Ban said, “in reality, we need clear guidelines under Chapter 7.”
Lavrov made his remarks at a news conference in Moscow with French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius. France and the U.S. say a military option remained on the table, and they are pushing for the U.N. resolution to reflect that. U.S. Mission spokeswoman Erin Pelton said the five permanent council members — the U.S., Russia, China, Britain and France — would meet later Tuesday on a draft resolution. On Monday, U.N. inspectors submitted a report on the Aug. 21 chemical weapons attack near Damascus that deepened the Syrian crisis. It was the first official confirmation by impartial experts that chemical weapons were used in the attack, which killed hundreds. The report confirmed that chemical weapons were used but did not ascribe blame, and Lavrov and Fabius differed sharply on their interpretations. “The report exposes the regime,” Fabius said. “On the basis of the information of our external agents, we consider that the report proves the responsibility of the regime for the chemical weapons attack of Aug. 21.” The U.S., Britain and France said evidence in the report — the type of rockets, the composition of the sarin agent, and trajectory of the missiles — showed that Assad’s government was responsible. The report said surface-to-surface rockets containing sarin were fired from an area where Syria’s military has bases, but said the evidence could have been manipulated in the rebel-controlled neighborhood that was hit. Russia, a staunch ally of the Syrian regime, disagreed with the West’s conclusions. Lavrov said Moscow has
U.S. poverty rate still at 15 percent WASHINGTON (AP) — The nation’s poverty rate remained stuck at 15 percent last year despite America’s slowly reviving economy, a discouraging lack of improvement for the record 46.5 million poor and an unwelcome benchmark for President Barack Obama’s recovery plans. More than 1 in 7 Americans were living in poverty, not statistically different from the 46.2 million of 2011 and the sixth straight year the rate had failed to improve, the Census Bureau reported Tuesday. Median income for the nation’s households was $51,017, also unchanged from the previous year after two consecutive annual declines, while the share of people without health
insurance did improve but only a bit, from 15.7 percent to 15.4 percent. “We’re in the doldrums, with high poverty and inequality as the new normal for the foreseeable future,” said Timothy Smeeding, an economics professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison who specializes in income inequality. “The fact we’ve seen no real recovery in employment and wages means we’ve just flatlined.” Mississippi had the highest share of its residents in poverty, at 22 percent, according to rough calculations by the Census Bureau. It was followed by Louisiana, New Mexico and Arkansas. On the other end of the scale, New Hampshire had the lowest share, at 8.1 percent.
Obama critical of those blocking tougher gun laws WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama’s spokesman on Tuesday criticized lawmakers who have stood in the way of expanded background checks for gun purchases and said the White House will continue to push the cause in the wake of the Washington Navy Yard shooting. Gun control proponents are citing Monday’s death of 13, including a gunman who opened fire at the military installation in the nation’s capital, to condemn Congress for failing to strengthen firearms laws. Yet there’s no sign that any of the lawmakers who
have successfully opposed stronger gun laws have change their position as a result or that momentum could be shifting in the debate. “We all witnessed the power of a narrow special interest to influence a vote against the will of 80-90 percent of the American people,” said White House press secretary Jay Carney. “And that’s the world that we live in, but we have to keep pressing forward.” Carney said lawmakers who oppose expanded background checks are taking cues from the gun lobby instead of serving their constituents.

Secretary of State John Kerry speaks to the media as he arrives at the at the Capitol for a closed-door briefing
“serious reason to suggest that this was a provocation” by the rebels. Ban called the report “the most significant confirmed use of chemical weapons against civilians since Saddam Hussein used them” against ethnic Kurds in Halabja, Iraq, in 1988. The main Syrian opposition group, the Westernbacked Syrian National Coalition, said the report clearly shows that only the Syrian regime could have carried out the attack, and it urged the U.N. to refer Syria to the International Criminal Court. “The Syrian coalition urges the Security Council to end the culture of impunity in Syria, and to stop the Syrian regime from carrying out further war crimes and crimes against humanity,” the coalition said. SNC president Ahmad al-Jarba said the U.N. resolution should force the destruction of Syria’s chemical weapons and also stop “the regime’s war machine by banning the use of its air force, missiles and artillery.”
on Syria with members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee Tuesday.
The Syrian Foreign Ministry slammed the U.S., Britain and France for demanding that Assad step down, denouncing “their frantic quest to impose their will” on Syria. “Assad is the legitimate president chosen by the Syrian people and will remain so as long as the Syrian people want this,” the statement said. Russia’s Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov traveled to Damascus to meet with Syrian Foreign Minister Walid al-Moallem. Russia’s ITAR-Tass news agency said Ryabkov would discuss the plan to dismantle chemical weapons. Fighting in the civil war raged on, with a car bomb wounding more than a dozen people in northern Syria at a border crossing with Turkey. The blast at the Bab al-Hawa frontier wounded 19 people, according to activist Ahmad al-Khatib in Idlib. Rami Abdul-Rahman, who heads the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, said 15 were wounded.
In February, a car bomb at the border post killed 14 and two car bombs in May on the Turkish side killed 43. Syria accused Turkey of escalating tensions by shooting down a Syrian military helicopter Monday. The military said the helicopter was monitoring cross-border infiltration of rebels when it “mistakenly” entered Turkish airspace. Turkey’s Deputy Prime Pinister Bulent Arinc said the aircraft was downed by a fighter jet after it ignored repeated warnings to leave Turkish airspace. South of Damascus, Syrian government troops backed by Lebanon’s militant group Hezbollah captured parts of the town of Chebaa, the Observatory said. Chebaa is also close to the Sayida Zeinab shrine that is sacred to Shiites. Syrian troops shelled rebel-held areas and sent reinforcements to the southern region of Quneitra near Syria’s Israeli-occupied Golan Heights, the Observatory said.

Reaching out to others might help with shyness DEAR ABBY: I’m a 14-year-old girl who just started high school. I started to notice boys when I was in middle school, and I’d like to start dating soon. The problem is I’ve never had a close friend who was a boy, and the idea isn’t natural to me. How can I ask a boy out if I don’t even grasp the concept of being friends with one? I’m frustrated over this, especially because I really like one particular guy. The only advice I have been given is, “Get over your fear and just TALK to him.” This isn’t very helpful to me. I want to know how to get over my fear! Abby, your thoughts would be appreciated. — CAN’T FIND THE NERVE IN OHIO DEAR CAN’T FIND THE NERVE: I’ll gladly share some thoughts. The first is I hope you realize how many girls and guys

Monitoring blood pressure can be done at home is where your blood pressure is on average. Before we had home blood pressure monitoring machines, the way a doctor determined if your blood pressure was controlled was to have you make a trip to his or her office. If you think about it, that’s pretty silly. The doctor ASK is supposed DOCTOR K. to estimate what your average blood is Dr. Anthony pressure all day and night Komaroff all based on one visit to the doctor’s office every several months.

not be representative. Home blood pressure machines make it easy to get a much better estimate of what your average blood pressure really is. The latest evidence for the benefits of home blood pressure monitoring comes from researchers who studied 450 people with hypertension. About half were given home blood pressure monitors that electronically sent readings to a secure website. The volunteers were asked to send six readings each week. Pharmacists analyzed that information and adjusted medications if needed or offered advice on lifestyle changes to lower blood pressure. The other volunteers received usual care from their primary care providers. At every step of the way, people in the home monitoring group had more success getting their blood pressure under control. The benefits persisted six months after the program had ended.

ment. You don’t have to be brilliant or witty. Try leading off with a friendly remark or a compliment. (“Nice shirt, cellphone,” etc.) I know very few people who don’t appreciate a compliment. Overcoming shyness takes practice, so don’t go after the boy you “really like” at first. Make a point of smiling and saying hello to everyone. It’s friendly, it’s welcoming. Keep in mind that the majority of people have the same insecurities you do. Many of them will respond positively because they appreciate being noticed. That’s how you make friends of both genders.

DEAR DOCTOR K: I have hypertension. Should I be monitoring my blood pressure at home? DEAR READER: You bet. It’s easy and inexpensive, and provides you and your doctor the information you need to protect your health. About one in three adults in the United States has high blood pressure, or hypertension. And about half of those with high blood pressure don’t have it under control. Hypertension increases the risk for heart disease and stroke. In my opinion, hypertension may be the most important public health problem in the United States, as it affects so many people. Recognizing and treating it brings enormous health benefits. You always have a blood pressure, every minute of the night and day, and it can change a lot from one moment to the next. What matters most to your health
your age feel EXACTLY the same way you do. Social skills don’t come naturally to everyone — but they can be learned. And like any learned skill, they take practice. The surest cure for shyness — which is the DEAR “fear” you experiABBY are encing — is to forget about Jeanne Phillips yourself and concentrate on the other person. Smile and introduce yourself if the guy doesn’t know you. If you share a class with him or know an activity he’s involved in, ask a question about it. He’s not good at sports? Not musical? Ask him about a class assign-
You can buy a good home blood pressure monitor for under $100. Look for: • an automatic monitor that doesn’t require a stethoscope (it’s easier to use); • a monitor that takes the blood pressure reading using a cuff that fits around the upper arm; • a read-out large enough for you to see the numbers; • a seal of approval from a trusted organization. Ask your doctor, nurse or pharmacist for help in calibrating your monitor and learning how to use it. Also ask how often you should check your blood pressure, and share the results of your readings with your doctor. Finally, remember that home monitoring is not a substitute for regular physician checkups. DR. KOMAROFF is a physician and professor at Harvard Medical School. His website is AskDoctorK.com.

Gay marriage Colorado families wait, worry issue bringing strange alliances INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The battle over amending the Indiana Constitution to ban gay marriage is splitting pretty clearly along ideological lines but making for some odd pairings of otherwise partisan foes. When opponents of the amendment launched their campaign last month, they tapped a veteran Republican operative, Megan Robertson, to lead the charge. They then announced this week they had hired the director of the Democratic Party’s field operations, Peter Hanscom. Supporters, meanwhile, are counting on a base of conservative and rural Democrats to bolster their already strong position among legislative Republicans. “This isn’t an issue that’s divided on party lines so much,” said Robertson, campaign manager of Freedom Indiana, the group leading the fight against the amendment. “It’s a different kind of issue than what you see typically being discussed at the Statehouse. It’s something where people can really come together regardless of what party they’re from,” she said. Indiana already limits marriage to being between one man and one woman. But supporters are fearful a judge could overturn the state law, in part relying on this past summer’s Supreme Court decision. The first part of what

of the missing remains elusive, with state and county agencies sometimes reporting conflicting totals. Colorado officials listed 1,253 people missing statewide at one point Monday and then updated it to just 658 later in the afternoon. Most of the missing were in Larimer and Boulder counties, which lie north of Denver and are dotted with self-reliant mountain hamlets where privacy-conscious residents live in remote homes difficult to access even in ideal conditions. Boulder County has assigned 10 police detectives to search for the missing. Officials are struggling to gauge how many people might actually be in danger as they field hundreds of calls from relatives, friends, estranged siblings and also near-strangers. Rescuers and shelter workers are taking down lists of evacuees to feed to county officials, and people are asked to call in when they locate their relatives. Federal officials Monday repeatedly implored people affected by the flooding to call and reassure their loved ones. In the funky mountain town of Lyons, stranded residents were unsure how to communicate their status. Telephone landlines were knocked out as floodwater rushed in Wednesday, and most people’s cellphones died long ago. One man drove with his young son past the shuttered shops on a muddy and abandoned Main Street searching for guidance.

Guntle is hoping his sister and her two children — his only family now that his parents have passed away — are among the holdouts who have chosen boiled water, pantry items and isolation over homelessness. He called the makeshift shelter for displaced Lyons residents on Friday and was told his sister hadn’t come in. He called 10 more times that day, but couldn’t get through again.
