Jasper County Concert Association preparing to launch season Thursday

The Jasper County Concert Association has been providing quality live entertainment since 1983 and on Thursday at 7 p.m., it will kick off its 2013-14 season at the Newton Senior High School Center for Per-formance with the Unex-pected Surfer Boys.

The Unexpected Surfer Boys are a Beach Boys

tribute band, who ac-cording to their website, provide “tongue-in-cheek Bachelor Party scenario(s) and plenty of ‘Fun, Fun, Fun!’ With our roster of Broadway veterans, we also love to create Broad-way revues, showcasing classic hits of The Great White Way.”

The next show takes place at 7 p.m. Nov. 18 and will feature the Aure-ole Trio, a mini-orchestra type group. The Aureole

Trio features Laura Gil-bert on flute, Mary Ham-mann on viola, and Stacey Shames playing the harp. Their website describes their style as a “unique blend of instruments — consolidating the entire orchestral palette into its three essential compo-nents — perform(ed) with an infinite array of colors and sounds.”

Casterlines wanted for questioning in murder of woman

The mother and son arrested just outside of Newton on Saturday fol-lowing an alleged robbery were later discovered to be wanted for question-ing in connection with a Nebraska murder investigation.

Late Mon-day morning, the Newton Police Department is-sued a statement regarding the ar-rest Saturday eve-ning of Andrew James Casterline, 23, and Shelley Lynn Casterline, 41.

According to Newton Police Lt. Bill Hen-ninger, officers were called to the Newton Walmart at 5:30 p.m. Sat-urday to investi-gate the theft of a purse from a pa-tron in the store’s parking lot. Upon arrival, officers met with the alleged victims.

“The victims said the male suspect approached them asking for direc-tions, and while giving the suspect di-rections, he grabbed her purse,” Hen-ninger said. “The victim, upon trying to retrieve the purse, was met by a fe-male who brandished a knife.”

Newton City Council amends several economic districts

The Newton City Council amended sev-eral economic develop-ment districts Monday night, some with sub-stantial changes while bringing others into ac-cordance with new Iowa laws.

The council voted to amend The North Cen-

tral Urban Renewal Plan to include the downtown area around the Jasper County Courthouse. City Administrator Bob Kna-bel said this amendment would give the city coun-cil and the community access to program funds to make improvements to the downtown area the council doesn’t have now.

The council also amended the Prairie

Fire TIF District with the speedway district. Knabel said this consoli-dation would benefit the entire area.

“There’s some value in it for community, as well as the two districts,” Knabel said.

Knabel said both ar-eas are very similar and having the ability to move funds around be-tween the areas will give

the city more flexibility.“The areas are so

close and compatible they speak to the en-tire area,” Knabel said. “I think it gives the city greater flexibly and pos-sibility in improving that interchange.”

Without discus-sion, the council also amended the Southwest Newton Economic De-velopment Area Urban

Renewal Plan and East-Mart Economic Devel-opment Area Urban Re-newal Plan. A new Iowa code requires such plans to list specific projects.

The council also re-tired the East 12th Street Economic De-velopment Area Urban Renewal Plan district.

First Presbyterian Church to host fall Style Show fundraiserBy Daily News Staff

First Presbyterian Church of Newton will host the annual Mode Huis Style Show and Luncheon at 11:30 a.m. Friday, Oct. 18.

During the 10 years Mode Huis has been in Newton, local women have enjoyed seeing the latest fashions the store has to offer while enjoying the com-pany of each other and good food as well. This has become the tradition of the Style Show.

Due to the closing of Shay’s Tearoom and Gifts, another venue was needed for the Style Show to continue. The Mission Committee of First Presbyteri-an Church in Newton was ap-proached to see if it wanted to use the event as a fundraiser.

It was decided this would be a good fit for the church as a fundraiser for its El Salvador Mission.

Rule to bar Iowa abortion pill system moves aheadDES MOINES

(AP) — A new Iowa rule ending the prac-tice of distributing a b o r t i o n - i n d u c i n g pills via a conferenc-ing system will move forward, a legislative committee decided Monday.

The Iowa Board of Medicine’s rule will now go into effect Nov. 6. The committee meeting was the last opportunity to stop the rule administra-tively. The issue is now up to the courts.

The system in ques-

tion allows Planned Parenthood of the Heartland to offer the abortion-inducing pills at clinics in 15 remote locations where the or-ganization doesn’t have doctors who can meet with patients in per-son. Instead, a doctor, typically based in Des Moines, meets with the women using an Internet video system before giving them the drugs, one dose to be taken at the office, the other at home.

Sen. Tom Court-ney, a Burlington

Democrat, proposed delaying the rule, but Republicans on the Administrative Rules Review Committee had enough votes to defeat the motion.

Courtney said it ’s obvious the rule is tar-geting only abortion because the medical board admitted it did not consider any other telemedicine proce-dures performed in Iowa. He also said the rule will have the most severe effect on those who live in rural areas and do not have a local

doctor nearby.“Whether you agree

with abortion or not, it ’s federal law right now,” he said. “I believe it ’s just another way of sneaking around and trying to outlaw a legal procedure.”

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved the use of an abortion drug in 2000. The medication is typ-ically offered to wom-en in the first nine weeks of pregnancy.

National Newspaper Week: October 6-12, 2013

We’ve been calling it the end of an era for a long time now.

It’s supposed to be the end of news-papers, accord-ing to naysayers who have been predicting their ultimate demise for years. But the facts prove the newspaper in-dustry is growing and transforming rather than dy-ing. Of course, there are always bumps in the road to innovation, but as it turns out, we’re actually in the midst of a prom-ising and exciting time.

Top businessmen and investors such as Warren Buffet, John Henry and Jeff Bezos are demonstrating that newspapers are still lucrative invest-ments. And despite gloomy predic-tions, our circulation revenue is actu-ally rising.

We’re experimenting and trans-forming to match the pace of our in-novative and digitally-driven world. Digital and bundled subscriptions accounted for a five percent uptick in circulation revenue in 2012 – the first national rise in circulation revenue since 2003.

Newspaper content is now ubiqui-tous, available and accessed on every platform and device. Recent Scarbor-

ough research also shows that across all print, digital and mobile platforms, a full 70 percent of U.S. adults read newspaper content each week. That’s more than 164 million adults – 144 million of whom, still pick up the print copy.

And despite the common percep-tion that the younger, digitally-native generation has abandoned newspa-pers, this study shows quite the oppo-site. Some 57 percent of young adults, ranging in age from 18 to 34, read newspaper content in a given week.

This is a strong indication that the industry is still a relevant and vital source of information, even to Millen-nials, who coincidentally also contrib-ute heavily to the growth of mobile readership, which jumped 58 percent over the last year.

The reason for this is simple. With the deluge of information available on the Internet, people of all ages rely heavily on sources they trust to pro-vide accurate content and quickly sift fact from fiction.

Newspapers consistently and reli-ably provide the most up-to-date, ac-curate and important news. And our audiences recognize this, rating news-papers as the most trusted of all media forms in a recent Nielsen study. While 56 percent say they trust newspapers, 52 percent trust local television and only 37 percent trust social media.

Today’s technology has only proven how valuable this content is by pro-

viding a platform to widen the audi-ence for each story, which can now be taken and repeated, shared, tweeted, condensed and emailed countless times a day.

Newspapers have always been the cornerstone of our society, and that did not change with the digital revo-lution. Ever since the Philadelphia Evening Post first published the Dec-laration of Independence, our news-papers have continued to unite us as communities and as a nation. News media connects us through stories, keeping us informed on school board decisions, local heroes, national bud-gets and international conflict.

The public’s right to know is essen-tial to preserving our unique American democracy, and newspapers serve the vital role of independent watchdogs – keeping governments, businesses and other institutions in check. Without a free press that can protect its sources, American democracy will suffer.

The newspaper industry will con-tinue to innovate and transform with the times, just like any other industry. But one thing will never change: Our historic promise to connect, inform, investigate and foster an educated so-ciety.

To the editor:I went to the Newton Com-

munity Theatre last weekend to see a play with five ladies as actors. It was a play probably written for women, but this 84-year-old man thoroughly enjoyed it.

If you don’t like to walk a long ways to your car, as I do, go early and park up close.

John MellingerNewton

To the editor:An Oct. 3 letter went home

with our seventh- and eighth-grade Berg Middle School stu-dents describing some details of the movie “Bully” and na-tional issues of bullying.

In short, it’s a permission slip for parents to sign allow-ing their child to attend but also includes an invitation for parents to review the movie prior to the students viewing. The letter hopes that parents will support the participation of their student as it’s deemed a valuable educational event.

It was disappointing that only four families were in at-tendance to see “Bully” at the Capitol ll Theater last night. Why so few taking interest when we have so many stu-dents? Maybe the title and de-scription of preventing bullying gives an automatic assumption of a good thing. More should be concerned.

Putting myself in the per-spective of an eighth grader, I might view “Bully” affirming that adults are part of the bul-lying problem. They don’t lis-ten, they lie and they cover up issues.

In the movie some of the parents didn’t listen to their child that was being victimized. The school administration hid the truth and lied to the kids that were being bullied, as well to their parents, as did law en-forcement.

Will our students conclude that adults can’t be trusted from this movie? Especially the school administration? Why would they go to us for help? The movie certainly portrays that in part.

“Bully” put a lot of emphasis on kids bullied to the point that they took their own lives. As unfortunate as that is, I think this movie adds a risk when viewed by seventh and eighth graders that any kid bullied will finally get peace, recognition and be appreciated only after that tragic occurrence.

That’s obviously not the in-tent. It’s hoped to stop bully-ing, identify those that are or assist the victims before a trag-edy occurs. The way the movie chooses to tell these stories, however, adds risk of making their life end as an option.

I hope our teachers, admin-istration and school board re-viewed this movie and are com-fortable with its contents.

Parents should not need a movie to replace them in what they should be teaching their kids and living an example for. Shame on us for this failure as there would be no need for a movie like this if we all were doing our part.

We took the ability away from good teachers to disci-pline our kids at school and although bullying has been around for years, it may well be an increased side effect of lim-iting what our teachers can and cannot do. Again, shame on us.

Planned Parenthood established the Iowa program in 2008, and it was the first such system in the U.S. Since 2011, 16 states have enacted laws barring telemedicine abortions, though not all of those laws are currently in ef-fect, a spokeswoman for Guttmacher Institute, a reproductive rights think-tank, has said.

Earlier this summer, abortion opponents petitioned the Iowa Board of Medicine to establish new rules that require a doctor to be physically present with a woman when an abortion-inducing drug is provided and require a follow-up visit by the doctor. It would effec-tively end the program in many rural areas.

The organization says the program benefits women in rural locations and that it’s received no complaints from patients. But medical board members said they had concerns about the pro-cess and the care women were receiving; they said the goal wasn’t to restrict abortion access.

Committee chairwoman Rep. Dawn Petten-gill, R-Mount Auburn, said Monday many women develop complications, which can in-clude heavy bleeding, after being sent home.

According to FDA statistics, an estimated 1.5 million women used mifepristone, the first of the two abortion pills given, between Sep-tember 2000 and April 2011; 14 deaths were reported and 2,207 women said they experi-enced some type of adverse event.

Pettengill also said the rule sets up a doctor-patient relationship that will be safer for pa-tients.

Sen. Mark Chelgren, R-Ottumwa said the U.S. Supreme Court’s Roe v. Wade ruling that legalized abortion says states have a legitimate interest in seeing that abortions are performed in a way that ensures maximum safety of pa-tients — which includes aftercare and adequate provisions for complications that may arise.

“I’m not a doctor and I don’t pretend to be one, but I do respect the decision of this board and what they’re trying to accomplish,” he said.

Sharon Malheiro, an attorney representing Planned Parenthood, said a lawsuit filed Sept. 30 in Polk County District Court asks a judge to stop the rule from taking effect. The lawsuit alleges violation of federal and state constitu-tional rights of due process and equal protec-tion.

BlotterContinued from Page 3A

Absentee ballots available for Nov. 5 electionAbsentee ballots for

the upcoming Nov. 5 city election are now available, according to Jasper County Audi-tor and Commissioner of Elections Dennis K. Parrott.

Persons wishing to vote by absentee bal-lot may do so person-ally in the office of the Commissioner of Elec-tions, Room 201, Jasper County Courthouse in Newton. The office is open from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday.

Registered voters may also request a bal-lot be mailed to them by calling the office at

(641) 792-7016 and requesting an absentee ballot request form be mailed to them. The voter then completes the information on the request form and mails the ballot request form back to the auditor’s office, and an absentee ballot will be mailed to them. This information is also available on the Jasper County website at www.co.jasper.ia.us.

In-office voter regis-tration for the city elec-tion closes on Friday, Oct. 25.

The deadline for registered voters to re-quest an absentee ballot by mail is Friday, Nov.

1.There also will be

some polling place changes from past city elections. Voters in the City of Newton will have the option of vot-ing at one of two vote centers located at the Union Hall, 1813 First St. N. in Newton, or the Jasper County Com-munity Center, 2401 First Ave. E. in New-ton. Voters in the City of Valeria will be voting in Mingo at the Mingo Community Building, 202 E. Railroad St. in Mingo. Voters in Oak-land Acres will be vot-ing in Kellogg at the Kellogg City Hall, 417

Front St. in Kellogg. Voters in Lambs Grove will be voting at the Union Hall, 1813 First St. N. in Newton.

Polling sites in Jas-per County will open at either 7 a.m. or at noon. Watch for the public notice to be posted with polling place hours.

Iowa Law now per-mits same day voter registration. Voters need to present current identification at their polling location to be able to register and vote on Election Day.

Call Jasper County Auditor’s Office for ad-ditional information at (641) 792-7016.

The district was used for the Walgreen’s project and city staff said it has met its original pur-pose.

“Those who say these things never go away, well here’s one we’re terminating,” Knabel said.

Council Member Dennis Ju-lius pointed out the success of the district and how the property will now contribute to the city’s gen-eral fund.

“And the impact of that is both of those properties have become part of the general taxing dis-trict,” Julius said.

Library Director Sue Padilla gave a presentation regarding the usage of the library’s services by the community.

Padilla said circulation

dropped by 4,000 items this year but library visits saw a smaller drop; 76,574 people to 75,861.

Despite the drop in circula-tion, Padilla said the library is taking on a new role in the com-munity. She cited several free ser-vices they currently offer, includ-ing free Wi-Fi, the proctoring of tests for college students, instruc-tion in basic Internet usage and e-reader instruction. The library also subscribes to 29 databases that patrons can use.

“Essentially then, the library is transforming into the city’s tech-nology center for the public,” Pa-dilla said.

This year, the Newton Public Library Foundation gave the li-brary $11,561.34 for several pro-grams for promoting reading and other education for youth.

“The library is an ongoing community project that involves

many people and affects many lives,” Padilla said. “Numerous businesses and organizations in the community provided mone-tary or merchandise donations in conjunction with library projects and programs.”

The last item on Monday night’s agenda included a pre-sentation and further discussion about the housing initiative. One concern noted by several council members was the low budget of the dangerous and dilapidated program. Knabel said this is one area where there may be more de-mand than resources.

“I think this can make a big difference in our neighborhoods, if we go after those properties,” Knabel said.

PAJAMA DIARIES

DEAR ABBY: My husband and I go out to dinner once a month with a couple we have known for years. “Joe” is an active conversationalist, while my husband is fairly quiet.

The problem is Joe addresses only me and stares at me throughout the meal. I think it’s just a bad habit he has acquired. To no avail I have tried various seat-ing arrangements to avoid the constant stare. It makes me very uncomfortable. I feel bad for my husband, who is totally ignored, but doesn’t seem to care as long as the food is good!

How do I get Joe to include my hus-band in the conversation and rest his gaze elsewhere? I would never say any-thing to “Mrs. Joe” about it because I don’t want to make her uncomfortable, too. I really want to continue the friend-ship and the socializing, but I’d like to feel more relaxed at the dinner table. Any suggestions? — DISTRESSED DINER

DEAR DISTRESSED: You are not helpless. The next time Joe directs his comments and questions only to you, toss the verbal ball to your husband and say, “Honey, what do YOU think about that?” It will give him an opening to en-ter the conversation.

As for the staring, Joe may not be aware of what he’s doing. You could bring it to his attention by simply say-ing: “You keep looking at me, Joe. Do I have food in my teeth? Is my lipstick smeared?” Then haul out a compact and make a show of checking for yourself. It may help to curb his discomfiting habit.

DEAR ABBY: I’m single and have grown children. I know I am not going to live forever, and I want to make sure I am not a burden to them even after death. I have a will and no bills beyond my house and normal living expenses. What else do I need to do to make sure everything is taken care of when I’m gone? — PRE-PARING IN ADVANCE

DEAR PREPARING: Do you have an advance directive for health care in

case you become so ill before your death that you can’t speak for yourself? Do you have at least one health care advocate who will ensure your wishes are car-ried out? Do you have a cemetery plot selected and paid for, so your children won’t have to do it? How about money set aside for your funeral or memorial?

If the answer to each of these ques-tions is yes, all you need to do is make certain your children are aware of it. If not, then get busy!

DEAR ABBY: I’m 14 and in the eighth grade. Some of my friends have problems with body odor. It makes it hard for me to be around them. They are all nice people, but sometimes I can’t breathe when I’m near them.

Some of my other friends say I should tell them, but I’m not sure how without hurting their feelings. The odor ranges from breath to body. Abby, they are known throughout our school for being “the smelly ones.” How do I tell them without offending them? — BREATH-LESS IN BEACHWOOD, OHIO

DEAR BREATHLESS: I agree that telling people they have bad breath or body odor can be embarrassing. But to do so is not hurtful; in fact, it is doing the person a huge favor. The way to do it is PRIVATELY. This is important because your friends are probably not aware that they have a problem or have been causing one.

The suspects reportedly fled the scene in a stolen vehicle. They were later apprehended by the Iowa State Patrol on Interstate Highway 80 east of Newton.

They remain in the Jasper County Jail, each facing charges of first-degree robbery, a Class B felony. A preliminary hearing has been sched-uled for 9 a.m. Monday, Oct. 14, in the case.

The State Public Defender’s Of-fice has been appointed to represent the Casterlines in court.

“The stolen vehicle is being in-vestigated by the Iowa State Patrol,” Henninger said. “Both suspects were wanted for questioning regarding a homicide in Nebraska, which is be-ing investigated by the Nebraska State Patrol.”

The Nebraska State Patrol issued a report over the weekend that Virgin-ia Barone, 68, of Guide Rock, Neb., was found dead in her home Satur-day around 8 a.m. after responding

to a request to check her well being. The Webster County Sheriff ’s Office reported when deputies arrived, they found Barone dead.

A spokeswoman with the NSP re-fused to comment further, citing the fact the investigation is still ongo-ing.

Although the Newton Police De-partment report indicated the Cast-erlines were from Nashville, Tenn., Nebraska media reports indicate the Casterlines had been living in Guide Rock for some time. Barone’s son, who reportedly lived only a few feet

from his mother’s home, told Ne-braska media the Casterlines were his fiancee and stepson-to-be.

Ronald Barone, who has two daughters with Shelley Casterline, said he believes an argument erupted when the Casterlines asked Virginia Barone for permission to use her car, and she refused. He said he thinks they then attacked his mother, beat-ing her severely.

First Presbyterian has been sending delegations to El Sal-vador since 1995, and over the past several years has de-veloped a close relationship with the small canton of Mu-noces. The church recently raised funds to help Munoces complete the purchase of wa-ter tanks for each family in the community.

There was some urgency in the timing of this pur-

chase, as the tanks need to be filled during the rainy season, which ends in November.

First Presbyterian funds several projects in the small community of Munoces, El Salvador. These projects are identified by the community’s directiva (similar to a town council) in consultation with the leaders of Our Sister Par-ish (the Pastoral team which includes Des Moines Pres-bytery Mission co-worker, Katherine Pater).

The needs in the commu-nity are great and ongoing, so

the directiva has to prioritize and make difficult decisions about which projects are most important to the community.

Water tanks were the num-ber one priority of the com-munity. Other priorities that have been determined are health care, fertilizer, and ed-ucation scholarships.

Young people in Muno-ces can attend kindergarten through sixth grade in Muno-ces. If they are able to go on to seventh and eighth grades, they must make the mile-long walk on rough moun-

tain roads to the village of El Tablon.

If they wish to extend their education beyond eighth grade, they must go to the high school in Berlin, which due to distance and lack of transportation requires a place to stay during the week. First Presbyterian Church of New-ton is assisting any Munoces student who wishes to contin-ue their education into high school.

The scholarship does not cover all expenses, but is enough to encourage students

and their families to commit to more education. Currently, the church is sponsoring five high school students.

Profits from ticket pur-chases will go towards the church’s mission in El Salva-dor, particularly for scholar-ships. Tickets are $20 and can be purchased at Mode Huis on the east side of the square or First Presbyterian Church, 220 N. Second Ave. E.

The church phone number is (641) 792-2790. The final day for ticket purchases will be Monday, Oct. 14.

Style ShowContinued from Page 1A

After a slight hiatus, shows resume on Feb. 18, at 7 p.m. with a perfor-mance from Charlie Albright, who labels himself a “Poet of the Piano.” Albright is a 25-year-old piano vir-tuoso, who is also a frequent collabo-rator with famed cellist Yo-Yo Ma.

The final show of the season takes place on April 3, at 7 p.m. and con-cludes with Everything Fitz, a Cana-

dian-based family band. According to their website, they feature “high-energy fiddling and percussive step dancing of four of Canada’s finest young musicians.

“With roots in the Canadian old-time fiddle tradition and Ottawa Val-ley step dancing, their unique stage show combines a variety of musical styles — everything from tradition-al jigs and reels, bluegrass, jazz and swing standards, Celtic, gospel as well as novelty numbers and choreo-graphed dance routines.”

Season tickets are $40 for indi-viduals, $10 for students and $75 for families or $20 at the door for indi-vidual tickets. In addition to being able to attend all shows in Newton, season ticket holders are able to at-tend all shows the Indianola Com-munity Concert Association hosts at no cost. And for only an additional $10, they can also see shows the Marshalltown Community Concert Series hosts.

JCCA Chair/Public Relations Mary Jo Niskin encourages all citi-

zens to experience these events.“Throughout the years, the Jas-

per County Concert Association has brought a number of world rec-ognized artists to town,” Niskin said. “Included in that list were The Christy Minstrels, The Vienna Choir Boys, Tony Sandler and his ensem-ble, The Neal Ramsey Duo and the Ahn Sisters Trio.”

1 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 20. The film “Argo” tells the story of how six Americans were rescued in the midst of the

Iranian Hostage Crisis of 1979-1981. Koob will tell the story of those who were held against their will for 444 days.

After teaching at NHS, Koob went on to work for the United States Foreign

Service, serving in several countries before her assign-ment to the U.S. Embassy in Tehran, Iran. Nov. 4, 1979, a group of armed Ira-nians stormed the embassy, taking a group of hostages that included Koob, and

holding them until Jan. 20, 1981.

Following her ordeal, Koob wrote the book “Guest of the Revolution.” She encourages those who plan to attend her discus-sion to read the book be-

forehand, if they can.After her release, Koob

went back to work for the Foreign Service, spending time in Australia before her retirement. She now resides in Waverly in Northeast Iowa.

Key Cooperative accepting bushels for Ag

Key Cooperative in Newton is sponsoring the Newton FFA chapter in a program called Bushels For Ag.

In this program, farmers have the option to do-nate any number of bushels of corn or soybeans to the Newton FFA. The Newton FFA members choose the best time to market these items, and the chapter receives all the proceeds. Key Cooperative already has donated 75 bushels of corn and 25 bush-els of beans. One option for farmers is to donate portions of their bushels left over after they fi nish their contracts that way they do not have to pay for storage.

If interested in donating, take corn or beans to Key Cooperative in Newton and tell them it is for Newton’s FFA Chapter.

Early snow kills thousands of cattle in SD PIERRE, S.D. (AP) — A record-breaking

storm that dumped 4 feet of snow in parts of western South Dakota left ranchers dealing with heavy losses, in some cases perhaps up to half their herds, as they assess how many of their cat-tle died during the unseasonably early blizzard.

Meanwhile, utility companies were working to restore power to tens of thousands of people still without electricity Monday after the week-end storm that was part of a powerful weather system that also buried parts of Wyoming and Colorado with snow and produced destructive tornadoes in Nebraska and Iowa. At least four deaths were attributed to the weather, including a South Dakota man who collapsed while clean-ing snow off his roof.

Gary Cammack, who ranches on the prairie near Union Center about 40 miles northeast of the Black Hills, said he lost about 70 cows and some calves, about 15 percent of his herd. A calf would normally sell for $1,000, while a mature cow would bring $1,500 or more, he said.

“It’s bad. It’s really bad. I’m the eternal opti-mist and this is really bad,” Cammack said. “The

livestock loss is just catastrophic. ... It’s pretty unbelievable.”

Cammack said cattle were soaked by 12 hours of rain early in the storm, so many were unable to survive an additional 48 hours of snow and winds up to 60 mph.

“It’s the worst early season snowstorm I’ve seen in my lifetime,” said Cammack, 60.

Early estimates suggest western South Dako-ta lost at least 5 percent of its cattle, said Silvia Christen, executive director of the South Da-kota Stockgrowers Association. Some individual ranchers reported losses of 20 percent to 50 per-cent of their livestock, Christen said. The storm killed calves that were due to be sold soon as well as cows that would produce next year’s calves in an area where livestock production is a big part of the economy, she said.

Some ranchers still aren’t sure how many ani-mals they lost, because they haven’t been able to track down all of their cattle. Snowdrifts covered fences, allowing cattle to leave their pastures and drift for miles.

DES MOINES — Trent Pease of Colfax, IA, was awarded the $1,000 4-H/IFAA Foundation Scholarship by the Iowa Foundation of Agriculture Advancement during the Iowa State Fair Sale of Champions on Saturday, Aug. 1. Trent’s parents are Brian and Danette Pease.

IFAA is a non-profi t organization founded in 1988. It is compromised of agricultural enthusiasts dedicated to encouraging 4-H and FFA livestock, poultry and agriculture project members to pursue Ag-related careers. IFAA founders recognized that Iowa’s young people are the future of agriculture in Iowa and that an important way to support and re-tain Iowa’s future Ag leaders is to provide fi nancial support to those young people interested in Ag ca-reers.

More than $5,704,575 has been generated since 1988 for 1,484 Winner’s Circle Scholarships, 1,016 Performance and Carcass Awards and 362 Sale of Champions livestock exhibitions.

ISU Field Agronomist discusses drought in Iowa

As the drought situation in Jasper County has went from moderate to severe, Mark Li-cht, a fi eld agronomist for the Iowa State University Exten-sion and Outreach Offi ce, said it could have been worse for the county.

“Jasper County probably didn’t get hit as hard as other counties with the wet spring conditions. Most of the de-layed/prevent planted acres were in northern Iowa,” Licht said. “Dry conditions were worse in central and southern Iowa. The yield variability is going to be tremendous both within and amongst fi elds.”

While the 2012 drought could be classifi ed as worse, Licht said he doesn’t believe it played a part in this year’s drought.

“I can’t really speak to why we’ve had such a dry year. That’s more weather related than anything. I would note

that while we were extremely dry last year and into the win-ter/spring there was plenty of rainfall this April, May and early June to recharge the soil moisture profi le,” he said. “To me, this indicates the 2013 drought is a separate drought from the 2012 drought. And that the 2012 drought, likely did not have much if any effect on crop conditions this sum-mer.”

Although Licht doesn’t be-lieve this drought was as se-vere as last year’s, he does see it having an impact on this year’s crop yield.

“This year’s yields are defi -nitely going to be impacted. Maybe not completely from the drought conditions of 2013, but likely (it’s) complicated or even compounded with the wet spring conditions that delayed planting in many parts of the state. So a combination of late planting, dry conditions since mid-June, and high tempera-tures in mid-July and August are all going to show their mark

on crop yields of 2013.”“In relatively small areas, I’ve

heard corn yields ranging from 75 to 190 bushels per acre and soybean yields ranging from 30 to 60 bushels per acre,” he con-tinued. “I suspect we’ll be tar-geting a fi nal yield for the area around 160 bushels per acre for corn and 45 bushel per acres for soybean.”

With harvest season now in full effect, Licht offered a few tips for farmers next year in case dry conditions persist.

“Farmers can help minimize effects from the dry conditions by limiting tillage this fall,” he said. “This does a couple things. (It) helps trap more snow cov-er and reduces the amount of evaporation of soil moisture from the surface soil. If in the spring, dry conditions persist, hybrid/variety selection will be critical but a slit downward ad-justment of seeding rates may also prove benefi cial.”

NEWTON — Newton’s junior varsity football Cardinals could not get their offense in gear to move against visiting Dallas Center-Grimes. The Cardinal junior varsity lost 37-0 to the visiting Mustangs Monday at H.A. Lynn Stadium.

DCG scored three touchdowns in the fi rst half to claim a 20-0 lead at the break. Cardinal turnovers al-lowed the Mustangs to have great fi eld positions on their way to 17 second-half points.

“Dallas Center-Grimes plays so well defensively, it created oppor-tunites for its offense. We seemed to play the whole game in our own territory,” said Tom Weeks, New-ton assistant coach.

Weeks pointed to the play of Collin Jacobsen and Justin Ruiz-Pittman and Blake Anderson, who had a couple quarterback sacks on defense. He said Duncan Lee and Jake Bennett played well on the of-fensive side of the ball for the Car-dinals.

Newton’s junior varsity travels to Adel DeSoto Minburn next Monday.

“The most valuable thing we each own is our mind. Educate your mind and you are a very powerful person.”

Two years ago, former Kansas State University head basketball coach Frank Martin spoke to students at a Kansas school I covered. He told them it is true that a mind is a terrible thing to waste.

“I have three simple rules. Be on time. Be prepared. Give me what you’ve got,” Martin told the students.

“When you are on time, you get chances to do more. If you come prepared for math class or prepared for basketball practice, you learn more. And all I ask is give me all you’ve got every day.”

I was fortunate in the years

M a r t i n coached at Kan-sas State to meet the man. He defi -n i t e l y was pas-s i o n a t e a b o u t b a s -ketba l l . S o m e did not like his style during games. I just told them to lis-ten to me talk of his players, the sport, the school and life in general when the game is not in the way. Martin re-spected his players and en-joyed helping them become better people not just better players on the court.

During sporting events. fans yell things at coaches, offi cials and even players that make no sense. Knowing the game, which involves rules, is important. Unfortunately, those few fans behave a poor sports, spoil it for everyone.

When you face a “supe-rior” opponent, you must have the mindset of I can do this or in this case — we can do this. Athletics are about teamwork and pushing not just your body to do its best, but your mind.

Martin talked of educat-ing your mind and how pow-erful a tool the mind is for all of us. It reminded me of the story my Mom always read to

PITTSBURGH (AP) — Michael Wacha heard the chants. Then again, when 40,000 people clad in black scream your name relentlessly for the better part of three hours, it’s kind of hard to miss.

The goal was to rattle the St. Louis rookie, remind him that 22-year-old pitchers aren’t built to withstand the pressure of an elimination game.

One problem. Wacha doesn’t re-ally do rattled. He doesn’t do pressure, either. The louder PNC Park grew, the more unhittable Wacha became.

“I kind of like it,” Wacha said. “It kind of gives me adrenaline. I kind of use it in my fa-vor.”

And the Pittsburgh Pirates — not to mention anyone else he might face in the postseason — “kind of ” need to get used to it.

Wacha took a no-hit bid into the eighth inning and the Cardinals showed off their October poise, edging the Pi-rates 2-1 Monday to force a winner-

take-all Game 5 in the NL division se-ries. St. Louis is 7-1 over the last three years with its season on the line.

“I think you take high talent and high character people that are motivated and support each other, and they don’t give up,” Cardinals manager Mike Matheny said. “That’s a tough combination.”

One the Pirates are still trying to master. Pedro Alvarez hit his third home run of the series, connecting with one out in the eighth for Pittsburgh’s only hit in Game 4. It wasn’t enough for the Pirates to advance to the NL champion-ship series for the fi rst time in 21 years.

“I guess that’s why we play fi ve,” star center fi elder Andrew McCutchen said. “We’ll be ready for the fi fth one.”

The Pirates weren’t quite ready for the fourth one, not with the way Wacha was dealing. He walked two and struck out nine before giving way to the bull-pen in the eighth.

Matt Holliday’s two-run homer off Charlie Morton in the sixth was all the offense required on a day the Cardinals tossed the fi rst one-hitter in the club’s lengthy postseason history.

Trevor Rosenthal worked around a two-out walk in the ninth, retiring Mc-Cutchen on a popup to shallow center

fi eld for his fi rst postseason save.“It was a good pitch for him,” Mc-

Cutchen said. “I wish it got a little more of the barrel. It would have been a great story.”

Instead, a taut series will head back to Busch Stadium.

Game 5 will be Wednesday, with ace Adam Wainwright starting for the NL Central champion Cardinals and rookie Gerrit Cole going for the wild-card Pi-rates. Both pitchers won last week in the NLDS.

The Cardinals fi nished with only three hits, and that was enough. Hol-liday got two of them, including his homer in the sixth after Morton walked big- hitting Carlos Beltran to start the inning.

“You could go back and look at pitch-es over and over again and second guess yourself,” Morton said. “I don’t know where that pitch was. It was outer third somewhere, thigh-down and he went out and got it, he’s strong.”

So was the 6-foot-6 kid on the one, the one barely a year removed from a standout college career at Texas A&M. Wacha didn’t permit a runner until walking Russell Martin leading off the sixth.

DETROIT (AP) — The Oakland Athletics have beaten Detroit with both pitching and power. And that’s left the Tigers on the brink of elimination — and simmering with frustration.

Brandon Moss, Josh Reddick and Seth Smith homered for the Athletics, who chased Anibal Sanchez in the fi fth inning Monday and defeated the Tigers 6-3 for a 2-1 AL division series lead.

Moss broke a 3-all tie in the fi fth with a solo shot, and Smith’s two-run drive later in the inning ended Sanchez’s day. It was an impressive offensive show af-ter the teams split two taut, low-scoring games in Oakland.

This one got a little tense in the ninth, too, when A’s closer Grant Balfour and Detroit hitter Victor Martinez started shouting at each other after a foul ball, causing benches and bullpens to empty.

The A’s aren’t worried about mak-ing friends, especially after losing to the Tigers in a fi ve-game division series last year. Oakland can close out this series Tuesday and reach the AL champion-ship series for the fi rst time since 2006 — when the Athletics were swept by the Tigers.

Oakland will send rookie Dan Straily to the mound against Detroit’s Doug Fister.

Coco Crisp had two doubles and a single for the A’s.

Red Sox lose to Rays ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) —

Boston closer Koji Uehara had been virtually untouchable the past three months.

Jose Lobaton changed that with one swing.

Lobaton hit a solo home run with

two outs in the bottom of the ninth in-ning off Uehara into the giant fi sh tank beyond the center-fi eld wall, and the Tampa Bay Rays staved off elimination once again by beating the Red Sox 5-4 on Monday night.

Evan Longoria had a three-run homer and the Rays prevented a play-off sweep, cutting Boston’s lead to 2-1 in the best-of-fi ve series. Game 4 is Tues-day night at Tropicana Field, with Jake Peavy starting for the Red Sox against Jeremy Hellickson.

Tampa Bay took a win-or-go-home game for the fourth time in nine days. The Rays did it with an unlikely stroke from Lobaton, who came off the bench to catch in the top of the ninth.

The Red Sox tied it in the ninth against closer Fernando Rodney. Dustin Pedroia’s RBI grounder made it 4-all.

NFL Standings

SOUTH HARDIN — Collins-Maxwell Bax-ter’s cross country team continues to make strides, both in the times the ath-letes run and in the mind of their coach.

CMB traveled to South Hardin on Saturday to participate in the annual Invitational. Both the boys and girls teams fin-ished eighth in the overall standings, and head coach Jerry Meinerts was very pleased to see his teams’ times continue to drop.

The Tiger girls won the team crown on their home course with 68 points. In second was Iowa Falls Alden with 102, followed by East Marshall (114), Webster City (123), Ne-vada (124), South Tama (163), North Tama (165), and CMB took eighth with 167 points.

Chasity Moody had the fastest time for the Raiders, running a 4K in 17 min-utes, 9 seconds and finish-ing 24th. Running right alongside her was Winter Brown, with a 25th-place finishing 17:12. Stephanie

Twohey was 31st at 17:33. Anna Jones ran 39th in 17:47. Chantel Maxwell snuck into the top-50, running 18:27 and fin-ishing 4 9 t h . Mack-e n z i e K l -e m m e r a n 1 8 : 4 3 to fin-i s h 5 5 t h . V e -r o n i c Condon was 66th with a time of 19:27.

“Our girls ran well to-day. I was very pleased with their efforts,” Meinerts said. “Their times are dropping, but so are everyone else’s. We need to continue mov-ing up in the placings. Win-ter Brown ran extremely well today. She got out and ran with Chasity and held on the entire race. Steph and Anna had great races today as well. We’ve been working a lot on running a quicker pace and our girls did a great job of that to-day.”

The eighth-place boys finished with a team to-

tal of 202 points, running without captain Mark Deutsch due to illness. East Marshall took the top spot with 50 points, followed by Nevada with 92 and BCLUW with 110.

CMB was led by Co-lin Thomson’s 15th-place time of 18:40. Calvin Jones was 40th at 20:16. Brock Jonson ean 48th with a time of 20:53. Con-nor Johnson ran 52nd in 21:28. Jacob Hallett (22:04) and Drake Caple (22:14) ran side-by-side for 56th and 57th, respec-tively.

“All of our guys re-ally stepped up and ran good races on a perfect day for racing,” Meinerts said. “Colin continues to pace the team, running another great race, earning himself a medal. Our oth-er guys just need to step up and run a quicker pace. They need to be under 20:00 for our team to be competitive. I know they can do it, it’s just a matter of believing that and going out there and doing it.”

CMB runs at South Hamilton Thursday after-noon.

Astrograph

The residue of yesterday’s meeting of Mercury and Sat-urn still lingers, suggesting a day of contrasting scenes. Venus in Sagittarius is full of energy and passion, and yet there is also a nagging sense of doubt. Opening one door means not choosing any of the other paths. You may find yourself wondering what you passed up.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Oct. 9). You’ll definitely sing your own song this year, and it all starts with the pas-sionate and creative influ-ence of the next six weeks. There will be pleasure in research, and by Novem-ber, you’ll apply what you know and make a significant change. December shifts your focus. You’ll move for-ward with plans for family life in January. Cancer and Scorpio people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 17, 1, 22, 24 and 38. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Your moral compass is spinning, and you’ll strive to settle the dial in the right direction. You’ll act because you’re driven to do what you

think is right, not because you want praise or attention. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). There will be good news. This could have to do with an inheritance, a happy outcome from apply-ing your personal talent or the acquisition of property. Enjoy this bounty. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Tenderness is the essential ingredient that will make your relationships work. It is the glue that holds your familial bonds and friendships together. It may seem counterintuitive, but tenderness makes you strong. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You will build your assets by focusing on what you do have instead of on what you don’t have. Put your energy into high-lighting your best work. No one has quite your lineup of gifts and talents. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You admire people of action, but today it’s more important to consider the action itself and not just the

person who moves on an impulse. As for you, you’re better off thinking things through for another day. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Groups are power-ful and sometimes not in a good way. Beware: The dominant forces in the room gain followers precisely be-cause of their dominance, even though their message may be terribly off.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Compassion starts at home. It is hard to be kind to others if you haven’t been kind to yourself. With this in mind, take the time to do the things that make you smile. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Negative attitudes are contagious. Avoid the complainers and malcon-tents lest you become part of their clan. Make a move away from them to assure that you stay self-contained. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Whatever you believe about yourself, whether it’s accu-rate or completely off base, is likely to become true.

With that in mind, try this one on for size: You are at the beginning of a cycle of prosperity. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Your desire to overcome a problem or limitation is ad-mirable, and yet you may be overlooking the main asset of your particular person-ality makeup. What if you embraced the flaw instead of trying to change it? LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ll be in charge in a hands-off kind of way. You’ll be the responsible party and a guide for others without micromanaging their efforts. They can feel that you trust them, and they’ll work to maintain that trust. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You don’t require a lot of external stimuli in your en-vironment. In fact, you do your best work when the sound, light and personal-ity of the room is muted enough to allow your rich inner life to take over.

By Jocelyn SheetsDaily News Sports Writer

WASHINGTON (AP) — The NFL is prepared to meet with an Indian tribe pushing for the Wash-ington Redskins to drop the team’s nickname. Just not this week.

As league owners gathered in the nation’s capital for their fall meet-ings, the Oneida Indian Nation held a symposium across town to promote their “Change the Mas-cot” campaign. Oneida representa-tive Ray Halbritter said the NFL was invited to attend.

Instead, NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said, a meeting has been scheduled for next month — and could happen sooner. He said the Redskins name is not on the agenda for the owners’ meetings.

It’s a topic generating discussion lately, though. President Barack Obama said in an interview with The Associated Press last week that he would “think about chang-ing” the team’s name if he were the owner.

NFL, tribe to meet over ‘Redskins’ name

ATLANTA (AP) — Geno Smith wasn’t flustered. Not after all the mistakes in his first four games. Not after the Atlanta Falcons went ahead on a touchdown with less than two minutes remaining.

Smith threw three touchdown passes and directed a drive that set up Nick Folk’s 43-yard field goal on the final play, giving the Jets a 30-28 victory over the stagger-ing Falcons on Monday night.

“It’s always been a dream of mine since I was a kid to be in those situations,” Smith said.

The Jets (3-2) have been waiting for this sort of per-formance from Smith, who came into the game leading the NFL with 11 turnovers, including eight intercep-tions. He completed 16 of 20 passes for 199 yards and threw almost as many touchdown passes as the four he had in the first four games.

“My confidence is always sky-high,” Smith said. “Nothing can bring me down.”

The Jets led 17-7 after a goal-line stand on the final play of the first half, which turned out to be awful big at the end of the game.

Atlanta had two cracks at the end zone on fourth-and-goal from the 1. The first attempt resulted in an in-complete pass, but the Jets were called for pass interfer-ence when they grabbed Tony Gonzalez as he tried to get open.

The Falcons again passed on a chip-shot field goal, and curiously decided to hand it to their smallest back — Rodgers is just 5-foot-6 and 196 pounds — for a power run behind their shaky offensive line. Rodgers was swal-lowed up by the New York line, sending the Jets racing off the field in celebration while the Falcons staggered to their locker room to a round of boos from the Georgia Dome crowd.

Smith completed a 12-yard pass to Stephen Hill, a 13 yarder to Jeremy Kerley, and went to Hill again on a 9-yarder. Smith scrambled around left end to the Atlanta 38. After one more Smith completion, the Jets let the clock run down and sent on their kicker.

“I hit it pretty solid,” Folk said. “As soon as I saw it go and get up in the air, I knew it was pretty good.”
