Goodwill Career Connection Center now open in Newton By Ty Rushing Daily News Senior Staff Writer Newton Mayor Mike Hansen has seen his city go through a lot of things, both good and bad, in the last decade but he was more than happy to share in some positive news recently. Goodwill of Central Iowa had an offi- cial ribbon cutting ceremony on Wednes- day in Newton to open up its second Ca- reer Connection Center in its 22 county area. The first center is located inside of the Southridge Mall in Des Moines. “We are so appreciative of the center here in the city of Newton. It’s a win-win for not only employees, but for employ- ers,” Hansen said. The center is located inside of New- ton’s DMACC Campus, and it is aiming to help the community in a number of different ways. “We will serve everybody we can that has any barriers to employment or is looking to advance their career — (peo- ple) that are looking to the next level, that need help setting up a resume or work on interviewing skills,” said Miranda Kulis, the center’s coordinator. In addition, Kulis plans on reaching out to local businesses to be able to pitch them on hiring candidates that have been ser- viced through the center. It will offer classes on computer basics, application strategies, creating a LinkedIn account and others. All services are free of charge. Goodwill of Central Iowa President Marlyn McKeen said his organiza- tion’s strong working relationship with DMACC made this possible and that Newton was an ideal location to open up the second center. “We are extremely excited to be here in Newton, Iowa,” McKeen said. “Basi- cally, our purpose here is to help people find jobs … This year, we have placed 350 people into competitive employment al- ready and we hope by opening this, that number will grow.” More than 9,400 people have utilized the Des Moines-based center’s services this year, Mckeen said. Craig Light, the new executive direc- tor of the Greater Newton Area Chamber of Commerce, said he has made use of the original center’s services when he was job hunting. He added that the new center will be a great fit to the other practices Newton has in place, such as the Buxton Study, to attract employers. It has only taken a couple of months for the center to go from the planning stages to being ready to serve. Goodwill recruited Kulis from her previous position as a director of career services at a college in Minnesota almost three months ago, and she has been vital to getting this of- fice up and running for the company. Kulis said that in her time here, she has grown to appreciate how tight knit the community is and its resiliency, which is why she is looking forward to getting started.

Stonehocker receives DAISY awardNewton Daily News
Katy Stonehocker, registered nurse at Skiff Medical Center, was recognized as an “un-sung hero” during the organization’s third 2014 DAISY award ceremony on Aug. 13.
The DAISY Award For Extraordinary Nurses was presented to Stonehocker following a nomination by 11 of her colleagues.
Stonehocker and her team are “often unsung heroes,” according to the written nomination.
“They are our first line of defense in the case of a code, hectic admission, PICC line insertion or emergency C-section. On nights and weekends, they take on the roles of our IT department, our pharmacy, our lab as-sistant and our materi-als’ management. Katy Stonehoker is a perfect example of how vital these individuals are to the smooth operation of the nursing department. Despite being pulled in several different direc-tions at once, she is never too busy to assist in any manner required. She is not only a cool head in a storm, an excellent
mediator and a skilled nurse, who performs all her responsibilities with a ready smile and a cheerful disposition.”
As with many DAISY winners, Stonehocker cited her peers as mak-ing her accomplishments possible.
“I work with an amaz-ing staff,” she said. “I couldn’t do what I do without them.”
Stonehocker was among four nurses nom-inated for this quarter’s DAISY Award: Stepha-nie Bailey, Lauren Clark and Patty Smith (nomi-nated twice).
The DAISY Award, presented in collabora-tion with The American Organization of Nurse Executives, is part of the DAISY Foundation’s program to recognize the super-human efforts nurses perform every day. The not-for-profit DAISY Foundation is based in Glen Ellen, Ca-lif., and was established by family members in memory of J. Patrick Barnes. Patrick died at the age of 33 in late 1999 from complications of Idiopathic Throm-bocytopenic Purpura, a little-known but not un-common auto-immune
disease. (DAISY is an acronym for Diseases Attacking the Immune System). The care Pat-rick and his family re-ceived from nurses while he was ill inspired this unique means of thank-ing nurses for making a profound difference in the lives of their patients and patient families.
Nomination forms are available through-out Skiff Medical Cen-
ter. The nominations are reviewed and award winners are selected on a quarterly basis by the Nursing Coordinating Council, which consists of professional nursing representatives from all areas of the organization.

Local OpinionPage 4A Thursday, Sept. 4, 2014
When a call comes across the scanner that a vehicle has been found submerged in a body of water, the first thing you is try to figure out is where you’re going. When that doesn’t pan out, you pray for your iPhone battery to hold out and have someone guide you to your des-tination.
Such was the case Wednesday morning when this event took me around parts of Jas-per County I have nev-er before seen. Before I go any further, I should let you know the vehicle was pulled from the South Skunk River with no oc-cupants and was apparently stolen from Newton earlier this week. (You can find more details on that with the news story.)
My breaking news reporter brought the incident to my attention as she was walk-ing out the door for an appointment with Skiff CEO Brett Altman. Since we had just met with Altman and some of his team members Tuesday (and they provided a re-ally fantastic lunch. Hospital food = deli-cious. Who knew?) I decided it would be best she didn’t stand him up. I volunteered to take the assignment.
My destination, I thought, was in rural Lynnville. Having never been to Lynnville, I was pleasantly surprised to learn it has its own exit off of Interstate 80. (Yes, I’ve apparently overlooked that for several de-cades.) And what a nice exit it is. Highway T38 is beautifully paved and is surrounded by abundant fields and rolling hills. My folks reside in rural Greene County, Iowa, which is as flat as the day is long. I’m still taken aback at some of the natural beauty in this area.
Once I made my way past Lynnville and onto the gravel roads, my assignment be-came more complicated. I couldn’t find a sheriff ’s deputy for the life of me, and cer-tainly no vehicle submerged in water.
What I did find was a super nice coun-ty road crew that was rebuilding part of South 120th Avenue East (I hope I have that right. There were so many gravel roads. So many.) Not only did they pause from their lunch break to try to help me, they also let me drive through their road project — twice.
While I love my phone, and the map on my phone, that feature wasn’t available in that area. Neither was Siri. In the end, I had talked to Mike Mendenhall nine times before we finally discovered I was in the wrong area. We discussed having him head to the scene in rural Monroe or just forget-ting it all together.
Although I had been on the road for more than an hour, and was hangry be-cause I hadn’t had lunch, I was determined to find it. (Hangry is a made up word that means hungry and angry. I was delighted when earlier this year researchers discov-ered people do get mad — or hangry — when they haven’t eaten. I’m the worst. My husband can verify that.)
So by the time I arrived in the right place, I had never been so happy to see a sheriff ’s deputy in my life. I spotted the patrol vehicle under the bridge that spans the South Skunk River in rural Monroe; locals apparently call it Byer’s Bridge.
Since I’ve been in a manager’s position in a newsroom for many years now, I’ve often instructed reporters there are two things you must come to work with on a daily basis: a full tank of gas and an alter-nate pair of shoes.
As you may have guessed, I didn’t take my own advice — the riverbank was muddy and I was dressed in high heels. So I did what any respectable woman would do. I tiptoed to the driest areas and got the shots I needed.
I would later tweet a photo of my muddy heels to a former colleague who was forever clad in adorable shoes, but almost always on the way to the scene of breaking news. I was pleased to learn she now keeps a pair of sneakers in her car.
As for me, I will be grabbing a spare pair of shoes and tracking down one of those old-fashioned paper maps. You never know what tomorrow will bring.
High heels and gravel travel

The First Amendment
I’m a Hawkeye — plain and simple. For those Cyclone fans in our readership, I respect you but I will never be able to understand your affinity for a red bird that looks like a car-dinal, goes by the name “Cy” but has nothing to do with a tornado. Alas, to each their own.
This weekend I returned to my alma mater to relive my days as an Iowa City townie. For those of you unfamiliar with the term, a townie is a resident — some-one who personifies the culture of a city and not one there for a simple extended stay. Follow-ing my years at the University of Iowa, I hung my hat in Iowa City immersing myself in litera-ture, craft beers and football.
But this weekend’s trip there
was a welcome surprise. When we took the long hike past the Pentacrest, through the English/philosophy building parking lot up to Kinnick Stadium, I found a subdued atmosphere. Tailgaters were still participating in call and response as they walked by, super-fans still sported facepaint and black and gold overalls but everyone seemed relaxed.
To put it in perspective, my first UI tailgate was a much dif-ferent scene. As a naive 18-year-old, I walked past the tailgating hotspot Olive Court in sheer horror. Solo cups and empty cases of Budlight littered the ground. A young man — presumably a student — stood atop a car with a funnel and hose spraying the crowd with an amber pilsner causing a frenzy. It was a parent’s and a petrified college freshman’s worse nightmare.
But 11 years later — to the university’s and city’s credit — the scene was much more peace-ful and family-friendly. Students still held their can of beer and played bagtoss, but there was no
littering, no fiendish behavior and no party atmosphere.
In recent years, the UI Police Department and City of Iowa City have put in place new regu-lations on tailgating areas and acceptable zones for open con-tainers. Downtown, there was a similar scene. Students and fans were still indulging, but not to the same level of debauchery. The 21-only ordinance upheld by Iowa City voters in 2013, appears to be doing its job — keeping more of the underage drinking out of the downtown area, closing problem spots and enticing new businesses into the pedestrian mall.
This year, UI officially and unceremoniously lost its num-ber one spot on Princeton Re-view’s top U.S. party schools. If this trend progresses, perhaps UI football will once again become the family-friendly event pro-moting healthy competition and camaraderie it originally set out to be.

UI football returning to civility?
To the editor,
Dan Kelley understands the importance of green jobs. It’s a simple sentence. Newton went through a difficult transition and if you look at our tax base we desperately need the jobs that places like REG, Trinity and TPI have provided.
I was fortunate enough to work for REG and saw the importance of having an advocate for renewable fuels. Lobbyists for fossil fuels are around every corner. Advocates for biodiesel aren’t. Biodiesel in-creases the value of every feedstock used to produce it. It gives truckers a job along with those working to produce it. Dan Kelley knew what an asset REG was for Newton and how important it is to have a supportive state legislature.
Dan Kelley understands the importance of liv-
able wage jobs in Newton. Dan is running against a fine gentleman without a doubt, but I’ve seen first-hand Dan’s tireless efforts supporting those things he believes are good for the state of Iowa and spe-cifically for Newton. That is one of the reasons I will be supporting him in November’s election.
A simple sentence doesn’t equal a simple task when it comes to putting the words into action. Dan has been and will be there for REG, the re-newable fuels industry and all the sectors it creates value for. The Iowa Renewable Fuels Association thought so much of his work they named him a 2014 Champion of Renewable Fuel. Without leg-islators like him these industries wouldn’t have sur-vived past their infant stages to grow day by day into sustainable businesses. Thanks Dan for doing your part.

GM donates vehicles to DMACC
Submitted PhotoGeneral Motors has donated a 2015 Yukon XL to the Des Moines Area Community College GM Automotive Service Education Program so the students can learn the latest technology equipped on today’s vehicles. Some of the students who will get to work on this vehicle in-clude (front row, from left) Colton Gearhart of Newton, Kyle Reinders of Des Moines, Cameron DeMaris of Ankeny, Michael Miller of Urbandale, Jordan Gosselink of Leighton, Chet Bullington of Runnells, (back row) Brad Burchett of Windsor Heights, Jonah Bassett of Urbandale, Jeremy Thompson of Ankeny, Doug Suchomel of Cedar Rapids, Evan Shaben of Harlan and Peter Bailey of Des Moines.
The Com-prehensive Plan, which was adopted in 2012, is in its two-year revisit. The Planning and Zoning Commis-sion is looking at the plan now and will update it with feedback from two community meet-ings and an online survey. To date, the city is working on 28 items from the Comprehen-sive Plan, has com-pleted two and will be adding 17 new items.
The mission statement, vision statement, goals, objective and ac-tion items are a part
of the City Action Plan. The council was satisfied with all the parts of the City Action Plan with the exception of the vision statement.
Currently, the statement reads “Newton Shines Brightly: Newton is a progressive, fami-ly friend communi-ty, a shining start of Central Iowa and a place to call home.”
Council mem-ber Steve Mullan suggested instead of shining star, it could read rising star or becoming the shining star.
“In other words, we’re moving up. We may not be a shining start yet, but we are moving up,” Mullan said.
Mayor Michael Hansen commend-
ed the work that has been done.
“It’s great to have data that we can look at,” Hansen said.
Knabel said that they would like to continue to become more data driven in the future and use it in their decision making.
A Strategic Plan meeting is set for the end of Sep-tember to discuss the goals and ob-jectives the council has already set. Any updates or changes will be discussed after reviewing the Community Survey and the Compre-hensive Plan.

“So many things that this community has been doing to come back — it ’s so nice to be a part of this community and help this community that I live in and am a part of,” Ku-lis said.
Much like Hansen and the other civic leaders in atten-dance, Kulis wants to contrib-ute right away to Newton’s economic development.
“That moment where they
say, ‘I have a career.’ That’s what I find most exciting … I think I’m more excited than the people are when they find jobs,” Kulis said.
Hours of operation for the Career Connection Center are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday and on Satur-days by appointment only. To schedule an appointment, call (641) 417-9174.

Vendors will be selling a assort-ment of merchan-dise from crafts and antiques to collect-ables and products
from their home-based businesses. There will also be baked goods to pur-chase and food ven-dors available.
If the event, which was an idea that came from a Newton resident, is successful, Mar-shall hopes to add a spring show along with the one cur-rently in the fall. Also, she would like to move it to the square, where the other Weekend Pit Stop events are
held.Weekend Pit

Iowa settles lawsuit in movie tax incentive program scandal
DES MOINES (AP) — Iowa has settled a lawsuit stemming from the suspension of a tax incentive program for movies to be made in the state.
The payment of a little more than $2 million will settle claims involving three mov-ies: “When September Ends,” ‘’Lucky” and “Underground.” Anthony Gudas of Providence, R.I., said his company invest-ed in four film projects based on state contracts, but the tax
credits were never paid. In Oc-tober 2013 the state agreed to pay $225,000 to settle part of the lawsuit for one of the four movies, “2001 Maniacs: Field of Screams.”
Iowa suspended the movie incentive program after an au-dit uncovered $26 million in credits were improperly issued by the state Economic Devel-opment Department. Seven people eventually were con-victed.
Man charged with killing officer offers no regret
CLARION (AP) — Jurors in the first-degree murder trial of a man charged with killing a Rockwell City police of-ficer heard a taped inter-view Wednesday in which he expressed no regret about shooting the offi-cer.
In the first day of tes-timony, jurors heard a two-hour interview of 33-year-old Corey Trott. He’s charged with the September 2013 death of 37-year-old officer Jamie Buenting during a stand-off at Trott’s house. He has pleaded not guilty.
Told that Buenting had died, Trott told Special Agent Jon Turbett, of the Iowa Division of Crimi-nal Investigation, “I don’t have any regrets.”
Trott told Turbett he’d had many run-ins with Rockwell City police and thought they were “mon-keying around” with his parents’ rental property. He also claimed officer were harassing and con-stantly watching him.
“In my opinion, the po-lice department’s manip-ulating our family,” Trott said in the interview.
Turbett asked Trott if he would say anything to Buenting’s family.
“I wouldn’t say any-thing,” Trott replied. “I’m an alpha male and he’s probably an alpha male too. I don’t have any re-grets about taking that shot.”
Webster County Sher-iff ’s Sgt. Luke Fleener, a commander of the tacti-
cal team at the standoff, also testified, noting of-ficers weren’t sure Trott was in the home because of darkness. That dark-ness increased the danger, he said.
“The unknown is the most dangerous thing we face,” he said. “That was a large unknown.”
Rockwell City Assis-tant Police Chief Mike Anderson testified the standoff came after re-peated attempts to serve an arrest warrant on Trott on an assault charge.
Earlier, Trott’s lawyer, Joseph McCarville, said in his opening statements that jurors should find his client guilty of something less than first-degree murder. Testimony will continue today.

DEAR ABBY: My son’s out-of-town wedding is coming up. My mother will attend and be traveling with me. I am single, and my mom is also single. She’s planning on sharing a room with me.
Abby, my mom has a severe snoring problem, and I’m a very light sleeper. I cannot sleep with a snorer! I don’t want to ruin my time at my son’s wed-ding, and she’s upset about the added expense of another room, which nei-ther of us can really afford, but I don’t know what else to do. — MOTHER OF THE GROOM
DEAR MOTHER OF THE GROOM: The separate room may be a luxury you can’t “really afford,” but incurring the expense may be worth it so you won’t sleepwalk through your son’s wedding. I’m not recommend-ing earplugs because, while they may dull the racket, they won’t completely eliminate the sound of severe snoring.
P.S. If your mother’s physician doesn’t know about her snoring, it should be discussed so the doctor can make sure it isn’t a symptom of a seri-ous health problem.
DEAR ABBY: My son has two children who are in temporary foster care, and has visitation with the ex’s stepsister, who got the right to grant visitation. Recently we had a birthday party for them. All the grandparents, aunts and uncles were invited. It was a kiddie party, of course, and I jumped into the pool and played with the children. We had a ball!
A few weeks later, I heard the step-sister’s mother had said I had “no business” playing in the pool with the kids. I was taken aback. Isn’t that what grandmas are for? I love playing with the little ones.
Was I wrong for not “acting my age”? Did I make a fool of myself?
The custody fight is ongoing and I don’t want to do anything that would jeopardize my son winning custody. — WORRIED IN NEW YORK
DEAR WORRIED: I don’t think you did anything inappropriate. I sus-pect the stepsister’s mother was jeal-ous that she wasn’t the person in the pool, which is why she didn’t speak up during the party and you had to hear it weeks later secondhand.
DEAR ABBY: On July 31 you printed my question about throw-ing a 25th anniversary party for my parents. I want to let you know that instead of taking on an expensive din-ner that I can’t afford right now, I’m collaborating with a cousin to have a chef come into their home to prepare a nice meal for them and the people who participated in their wedding. I felt it was a much more personal and cost-effective way to give them the nice anniversary they deserve. Thank you for your advice! — SON OF SIL-VERS
DEAR S.O.S.: I’m delighted you wrote to share your solution. The idea is terrific. I am sure your parents will be thrilled and other readers will ap-preciate your ingenuity. Thank you!

File PhotoAdding barley to a meal like breakfast or dinner will increase fiber intake and help lower cholesterol levels. Barley is a great addition to traditional chili and substituting ground turkey for ground beef will keep the fat calories down as well.
Add fiber to your fall with barley
If you’re looking to add variety to fall recipes, go barley.
This ancient grain has been shown to lower cholesterol, helps control blood sugar and has stay-ing power to fill you up. Better yet, it’s versatile, tasty and costs pennies a serving. A 16-ounce box that has nine servings costs less than $2. Barley can be cooked low and slow or cooked up in minutes.
Pearl barley — which is what is found in grocery stores — has been processed to remove the tough inedible outer hull and then pearled or polished. Pearl barley is cooked similar to rice in a saucepan with water, and will cook in 45 minutes. Quick cook-ing barley is pearl barley that has been processed one step further. It is steamed during processing so that cooking time takes only 10 minutes. They are found side by side in the grocery store. Both varieties provide a wealth of nu-trients and fiber because the fiber is found throughout the entire kernel, not just in the outer layer.
As a healthy change of pace, think barley for any meal.
Barley for BreakfastThis recipe features regular
pearl barley and cooks while you sleep! It makes a generous 6 serv-ings; however, cooked barley may be covered and refrigerated for up
to three days.Slow Cooked Barley Breakfast1 cup pearl barley4 ½ cups waterSpray a small or medium slow
cooker with non stick spray. In it, combine barley and water. Cover and cook on low for six to eight hours. Serve hot with chopped dried fruit, fresh berries, chopped dark chocolate, pecans, cinnamon, milk or a dollop of Greek yogurt.
Barley for LunchOrdinary soup turns into a nu-
trition powerhouse with the addi-tion of barley. Cook this chili on the weekend, and then pack it up in a thermos to enjoy for lunch throughout the week.
Rock-m Sock-m Chili1 pound lean ground beef, turkey or chicken1 cup chopped onion½ cup pearl barley1 can (28 oz) cut tomatoes1 cup water1-2 tablespoons chili powder½ teaspoon salt2 cans (15 oz each) pinto or red
beans — drained and rinsedCook ground meat and onion
in a heavy 4 to 5 qt pan, over me-dium heat, until meat is no longer pink. Drain meat and onion mix-ture in colander and rinse with 1 cup hot water. Return to pan and add barley, tomatoes, water, chili powder and salt. Cover and cook 30 minutes over medium-low heat. Add beans and continue to cook 15 to 20 minutes to blend
flavors and finish cooking barley. Recipe makes 8 servings.
Barley for SupperThis recipe uses quick cooking
barley to speed up the cooking time. Serve this flavorful side dish alongside grilled chicken or pork.
Barley Orange Pilaf1 cup quick cooking pearl barley2 cups water½ cup chopped apricots3 tablespoons orange marmalade¾ teaspoon ground cumin¼ teaspoon salt½ cup slivered almondsIn medium saucepan with lid
bring water to a boil. Add barley and return to boil. Reduce heat to low and cook 10 minutes or until barley is tender and liquid is absorbed. Set aside. In a large skillet, heat apricots and orange marmalade until heated through, approximately 3 minutes. Blend in cumin and salt. Cook 1 min-ute longer. Stir in barley and al-monds. Serve hot. Recipe makes 6 servings.
In addition to these recipes, cook up a batch of pearl barley (either regular or quick cooking) and add to prepared soups, stews, casseroles, and salads for extra fla-vor, texture and fiber. Give barley a try for a tasty, healthy change of pace.

Work for Newton High’s Cardinals this week has been on eliminating penalties. The Cardinals focused on how to be better on offense and de-fense going into their second football game.
The Cardinals also focused on Marshalltown’s Bobcats. Two 1-0 teams meet Friday in Marshalltown for a non-league contest. NHS head coach Ed Ergenbright said the Cardinals are expecting to face a tough Bobcat team on a sloppy natural grass fi eld.
“We learned the Marshall-town fi eld was torn up pretty good last week in the fi rst game after all the rain. We have rain forecasted for this week and it could be a sloppy fi eld Friday night,” Ergen-bright said.
Marshalltown recorded a 31-0 win over Waterloo East at Leonard Cole Field, while Newton was decking Knox-ville 41-7 at H.A. Lynn Sta-dium last week. Kickoff on Friday is 7:30 p.m.
Ergenbright said New-ton and Marshalltown used to be in the same conference years ago. This is a renewed rivalry between the Cardinals and Bobcats, both teams in the original CIC. Newton is a Class 3A team which went
4-5 a year ago and Marshall-town is a 4A team coming off a 1-8 season.
Newton survived 17 penal-ties in its opener. Both Ergen-bright and players recognized the fact the Cardinals needed to “clean up” the infractions — most came on the offensive side with false starts along the offensive line and holding penalties.
“Marshalltown is a really solid football team. We’ve been concentrating on fi x-ing what we can fi x of what we do,” Ergenbright said. “Marshalltown had very good
skilled athletes at the receiver spot and its quarterback does a good job of getting the ball out to players. Their running backs run hard.”
Marshalltown’s offense is led by quarterback Austin Klu-ver, who threw two touchdown passes in the opening week win for the Bobcats. Kluver went 8-of-13 for 62 yards. Luke Sev-erson and Jordan Smith caught touchdown passes.
John Espinoza and Joe Re-bik powered the Bobcat run-ning attack against Waterloo East. Espinoza rushed for 92 yards on 20 carries with one
touchdown and Rebik had 35 yards on 10 carries. Rebik had a touchdown run and returned a punt 61 yards for a score.
“Defensively, we have to shift gears because Marshall-town is a spread offense. They spread you out sideline to sideline to help create run-ning lanes. We have to be disciplined and sound against the run, mix up our coverages and blitz packages,” Ergen-bright said.
Newton will bring its of-fense of working the perime-ter with its speed through the running and passing game.
Ergenbright said the Cardi-nals continue to work to de-velop an inside running game.
“We want continuity along our offensive line. Our run blocking needs to improve so we can run the ball between the tackles as well as to the outside,” Ergenbright said. “Keys for us against Mar-shalltown are to eliminate the penalties, move the football and score points and play sol-id defense.”

Pregame Outlook —
Newton renews rivalry with Marshalltown By Jocelyn Sheets
Daily News Sports Editor
Jocelyn Sheets/Daily NewsIt all starts up front. Newton High’s offensive line is making strides from the start of practices through the fi rst game of the season. The Cardinals are working to be better along the line of scrimmage against Marshalltown on Friday.
NCMP’s Aquagirls and those who are affi liated with multiple sclerosis will benefi t from the team’s Swim for MS project. The team members get
into better condition while rais-ing funds for the charity.
“We’re going after 50,000 laps as a team to raise $1,000 for the Multiple Sclerosis Association of America,” said Rachel Prendergast, se-nior member of the NCMP
swim team. “We began taking pledges in August but in the month of September is when we’re starting our lap count.”
The Aquagirls swim laps every day in practice as condi-tioning for their competitions. They are incorporating their
lap work into raising money for the charity to help people dealing with multiple sclerosis.
NCMP has one home regu-lar meet on Sept. 11. The team will hold a benefi t night during the the swim meet with Des Moines Roosevelt and West
Des Moines Dowling Catholic at the Newton YMCA. Pren-dergast said the team is asking for donations that night.
“I’m proud of Rachel for taking the leadership on this project. It is a great way for our girls to raise awareness for MS and to work for a greater cause,” said Sarah Patterson, NCMP head coach.
Prendergast, who has two family members suffering with MS, said she saw Swim for MS on television then went to the Swim for MS website to gath-er information on it. She said Newton High Athletic Director Scott Garvis is always encourag-ing athletic teams to participate in community service projects.
“At our intrasquad scrim-mage, we had relays for MS, where members of team fami-lies and others paid $5 each to participate in special relays. The NHS cross country girls got involved in that. Everyone had a good time,” Prendergast said. “We are the fi rst team in Iowa to do the Swim for MS.”
Donations may be made in cash or check — made out to Swim for MS — given to mem-bers of the swim team or coach-es. Prendergast said people may donate online at the Swim for MS website by searching for NCMP Aquagirls

KNOXVILLE — Newton High’s junior varsity football team wasn’t able to overcome a 14-0 fi rst-half defi cit Tues-day in its season opener at Knoxville. Knoxville defeated Newton, 22-7.
Jordan Norvell, who rushed for more than 200 yards in the game, scored on a 21-yard run with 5:57 left in the third quarter for Newton. Josh Gulling kicked the extra
point to make it 14-7.Knoxville scored its fi nal
touchdown on a short fi eld after Newton failed to covert on a fourth-down play.
The Cardinals fi nished with almost 400 yards of to-tal offense. Several promising drives in the game were ham-pered by Cardinal penalties. Keith Steinbach rushed for 65 yards in the second half for Newton.
“Although we lost, a lot was gained from this experi-ence,” said Tom Weeks, NHS
assistant coach. “A number of young players stepped for-ward and gave it a 110-per-cent effort. From a defensive and offensive prospective ev-eryone contributed. You can’t ask for more than that. It’s always nice to win. But, ju-nior varsity football is about learning, and preparing for the next level. I think we did that.”

COLFAX — Following Colfax-Min-go’s season-opening victory at Pleasant-ville last Friday, the team stopped at a Casey’s General Store on the way home. The players wanted food. They received a history lesson.
The Tigerhawks shut out Pleasantville, 21-0. The coaches, curious, started dig-ging. How long had it been since Colfax-Mingo, a team that allowed an average of roughly 54 points per game last season, last held an opponent scoreless?
“After the game coach (Matt) Barkalow came up to me and said in all the years he had, it had been a long time, so then we started looking into it a little bit and asked a few other people and figured out it was back in ‘03,” second-year head coach Jeff Lietz said. “I didn’t tell the boys that until we got to Casey’s, so they didn’t know that they had done something that hadn’t been done in quite some time.
“It’s something to celebrate coming off of what we did last year defensively when we didn’t stop a whole lot of anything.”
Ten years passed between the team’s last two shutouts. The current Tigerhawks hope it’s not that long before the next one.
An anxious Colfax-Mingo squad hosts Clarke Friday in the Tigerhawks’ home opener at 7 p.m. Another shutout is on players’ minds.
“I think if we get another shutout this week, it’ll really set a tone,” junior line-backer Jake Lietz said. “What we’ve been talking about as a defense this year is having a certain swagger about us that we’re the de-fense this year and we’re not going to let stuff happen to us.”
Such a mind set was missing last year, Lietz said. He described the defense’s play as “...flat. People weren’t very pumped up.”
It showed on the scoreboard. Eight of Colfax-Mingo’s nine opponents last sea-son posted season-high point totals when they played the Tigerhawks.
“Defense was definitely our Achilles’ heal last year,” fellow junior and lineback-er Jacob Buehrer said.
Jeff Lietz sat down for individual meetings with each player after the sea-son ended. Defense was frequently a topic of discussion.
As a result, more emphasis has been placed on stopping opponents from reaching the end zone rather than the Ti-gerhawks scoring themselves.
“That’s one thing we’re working on more and focusing on more in prac-tice this year is more team defense stuff, spending more time trying to get the de-
fense on the field and work with them, whereas last year, I wouldn’t say we didn’t spend enough time on it, but we focused more on the offensive side of the ball,” Jeff Lietz said. “They’re taking more pride in the defensive side of the ball. In the off-season interviews I did with the boys, they all said, ‘I want to work defense more.’”
Jake Lietz, the head coach’s son, ex-pressed the pride his dad mentioned when he talked about the new defense’s men-tality through practice and Week 1. He hopes a new “feeling,” perhaps better de-scribed as a fear, is instilled in opponents that he and his defensive teammates are “not the little, baby Colfax-Mingo. We’re the huge, strong Colfax-Mingo.”
The Tigerhawks, in all likelihood, still have tackles to make and opponents to stop before that thought comes to frui-tion.
The first shut out in 10 years seems like a good starting point, though.
“I think what (the shutout of Pleas-antville) does is just, within the system, it lets them know that the system works,” Colfax-Mingo’s head coach said. “It lets them see, OK, it did what we see on film. It did what they tell us it can do. As the boys gain trust and confidence in the sys-tem, they’re going to do well.”

AMES (AP) — One of the defining qualities of Iowa State coach Paul Rhoads is his ability to generate optimism in lieu of success.
It ’s going to be tough to keep selling hope after another awful start.
The Cyclones (0-1) didn’t just drop their first game for the sec-ond year in a row. They fell at home, 34-14, to North Dakota State — an FCS program with 22 fewer scholarships, a new coach and a new quarterback.
Considering what lies ahead for the Cyclones in the coming weeks; No. 20 Kansas State (1-0) on Saturday, at Iowa, No. 10 Baylor and at Oklahoma State, Rhoads’ stated goal of a bowl win this season already seems a bit un-realistic.
We need to focus on “urgen-cy and getting your job done,” Rhoads said. “Whether it ’s a tack-le, a route, whether it ’s a block. Everyone needs a little more ur-gency in coaching and playing.”
Iowa State’s offense sputtered badly in its first game under new coordinator Mark Mangino.
It won’t be easy to fix things with star wide receiver Quenton Bundrage out for the year.
Bundrage, who led the Cy-clones with 48 catches and nine TDs in 2013 and was arguably the most talented player on their ros-ter, injured his right knee during the first series Saturday.
Rhoads said Monday that Bun-drage tore his anterior cruciate ligament and won’t be back in 2014.
Perhaps the only consolation for Iowa State is that wide receiv-er remains the program’s deepest position. Promising freshman Al-len Lazard and transfer D’Vario Montgomery will get more snaps as the Cyclones seek to replace Bundrage’s production.
“He’s a big playmaker,” Rhoads said. “Bundrage was a very big
part of our offense ... he was look-ing forward to not only a big-play season but a consistent season for himself. To have that taken away on the fourth play of a football game is really disheartening for the young man. I feel for him.”
Iowa State also lost center Tom Farniok to a knee injury against the Bison. But Rhoads said that the Cyclones are confident that Farniok will be able to go against the Wildcats.
That ’s good news for the Cy-clones, because their offense fell apart without Farniok in the line-up.
Iowa State was held score-less for the final 44 minutes and gained just 57 yards in the second half as North Dakota State rattled off 34 unanswered points.
The lack of offensive cohesive-ness without Farniok on the field was a big reason why quarterback Sam Richardson ran the ball 15 times — more than running backs Aaron Wimberly and DeVondrick Nealy combined.
Richardson also finished 20 of 31 passing for 151 yards and two interceptions.
“He was going through his pro-gressions much better than he has in the past,” Rhoads said. “But Sam was thoroughly a pass-first quarterback, as we’d like him to be, and ran when he had to.”
For the second year in a row, Iowa State has been forced to answer questions about how it ’ ll bounce back from a home loss to an FCS school in its opener.
Last season’s 28-20 defeat to Northern Iowa set a bad tone for the rest of the year. The Cyclones went on to lose nine of their first 10 games and finished 3-9, their worst record under Rhoads.
Iowa State is hoping to avoid a similar tailspin this time around.
“We’ll respond to it better than we did last year,” Richardson said. “We’ve got to respond to it quick-er than we did last year.”
Iowa State football off to another awful start
IOWA CITY (AP) — The hope for Iowa was that a deep and talented defensive line would help mask its inexperience at linebacker and in the sec-ondary.
A line can only do so much.The back end of the Hawkeyes defense was ex-
posed in last weekend’s 31-23 win over FCS rival Northern Iowa. Quarterback Sawyer Kollmorgen threw for 380 yards, and nearly half of that total came on three short throws to running back David Johnson over the middle.
Iowa (1-0) knows it’ll have to get those glaring mistakes corrected as it prepares to host Ball State (1-0) on Saturday.
“It was probably the most displeasing part about the ballgame, giving up big plays, particularly in the passing game,” Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz said. “If we’re going to have a good defensive ball club we’re going to have to eliminate those things.”
It wasn’t surprising to see Johnson play so well.
Johnson is considered one of the best backs in the country regardless of classification, and last season he was 11th in the FCS with 1,679 all-purpose yards.
Still, the Hawkeyes made it way too easy for him.Johnson took a short pass 53 yards on Northern
Iowa’s second play from scrimmage, and his 60-yard catch and run in the second quarter looked eerily similar. Johnson’s third big play went for 70 yards and a touchdown in the third quarter and helped keep the Panthers in the game until their final pos-session.
New linebackers Quinton Alston, Reggie Spear-man and Bo Bower shouldered much of the blame for those lapses, but Ferentz described them as team-wide breakdowns. The game also marked the debut at free safety for Jordan Lomax, a converted cornerback still adapting to his new position.
Alston bounced back from his earlier mistakes with a key fourth quarter sack. Bower, a redshirt freshman who just recently earned a scholarship, had
a key interception and the first sack of his career in the second half.
“It’s stuff that’s easily correctable. When you look back at the film, there’s a lot of bad things. But there’s a lot of good things. We try to look at the positives. It’s pretty encouraging to see the good play by some of the young players like Bo Bower,” Alston said.
The biggest positive for Iowa’s defense in the opener was that its line more than lived up to its high expectations.
Tackle Carl Davis appeared to be unstoppable for stretches, and Louis Trinca-Pasat finished with 10 tackles, including three for losses. Drew Ott also got loose for a key sack, and the line helped hold John-son to just 34 yards rushing.
“That’s good for us that at least, for the most part, we were able to do that. It obviously just makes the whole defense’s job easier,” Trinca-Pasat said of lim-iting Johnson’s rushing yards. “Now we’ve just got to correct some things as far as the passing game goes.”

Newton Daily News Jasper County Advertiser newtondailynews.com
Astrograph
Tomorrow will bring a change of heart — all the more reason to celebrate today’s heart and all the ways it leans, flies and dances. Letting yourself follow these impulses is the stuff of childhood (the realm over which creative Leo rules). While the love goddess is still in Leo, ask your heart to reveal its desires.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Sept. 4). Your big leap is coming — the thing that’s been holding you back will be cleared in three weeks’ time. October is a thrill-ride. Healthy routines make you stronger. Career wins are featured in November. Family relationships heal in December. Travel in the new year, and you may also learn a different language. Aries and Sagit-tarius people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 43, 25, 41, 2 and 29.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Some people try to keep up with the Joneses. Others just talk about the Joneses behind their backs. Still others try to drag those Joneses down a few notches. The best way
may be to ignore those Joneses. It’s their biz, after all.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). As you are inclined to reject all dull and dreary affairs, it’s probably best that you don’t pay too much attention to the local scuttlebutt. Think big. If you’re going to follow a bit of news, make sure it’s international.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Some friends get you on a level that other friends will never under-stand. That’s just how it is. Your ability to roll with it and appreciate whatever people appreciate about you is what keeps you rich in friendship.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Be patient and listen to other people’s ex-periences, some of which will resonate and others of which will guide you. It will be good to reminisce about what’s occurred and get ready for what’s com-ing up.
CAPRICORN (Dec.22-Jan. 19). Wild ideas lead to excellent plans, but there’s some sorting
to do in the transition. What’s reasonable? Dis-count that. Go for what’s just beyond reasonable.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Your accomplish-ment will draw attention, and that can’t be helped. Luckily, your inherent kindness keeps any of the props you get for to-day’s success from going straight to your head.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You may be worried about what to say. The best thing is to con-gratulate others on their success, acknowledge the challenges and ignore all else. Cover those, and you’ll be considered a social genius.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Funny, you don’t feel like an expression of di-vine energy. Well, if they insist. Maybe you can feel a glimmer of it this afternoon, and that will be enough to help you focus on what’s going right.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’ll be making a speedy and yet very important exit. There’s an emotion to leaving, and
everyone feels it. Know and control it, and you’re basically knowing your own attitude.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Great film directors pay attention to the geom-etry of bodies and scenery frame-by-frame. In real life, it’s up to you to cre-ate interesting images in the way you use space. Someone is very attracted to the way you do this.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Losing your enthusi-asm is worse than losing your way. If you lose your mojo, don’t let yourself go too long without it. Gather a search-and-rescue team to find it.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). What you used to think of as pressure is now a fun challenge. This is because you’ve grown. If your brain were a bicep, you would note this growth outright. But for now, you’ll just have to accept it.
