Jamee A. Pierson/Daily NewsJasper County Treasurer Doug Bishop along with the Jasper County Board of Supervisors discuss the budget for the coming year.

Supervisors continue budgets talks, appointments

By Jamee A. PiersonNewton Daily News

Budget talks continued along with several appointments at the Jasper County Board of Super-visors meeting Tuesday. County Treasurer Doug Bishop said he was maintaining his budget with only wage and benefit increases. He is hoping to get a new copier for his department to replace the used machine that he purchased six years ago.

“I got three different quotes and I actually sent it back to Forbes and said, ‘you need to keep business local. I want to,’ and they did,” Bishop said. “I figured this time around there was a used one when I came in and I bought a used one and got our money’s worth, I figured this time we’ll buy one for the long haul.”

Also in the treasurer’s office, Cindy Meredith and Warren Braun were appointed deputies

and approved by the supervisors. County Recorder Denise Allan had two deputies approved as well. Linda Hammer and Pam Keenan were appointed to the recorder’s office as of Jan. 2.

A public hearing will be set for a five-year agreement with ShoreTel Phone Maintenance for phone systems across the county. If the agreement is ap-proved, the county could poten-tially save $2,450 over the yearly renewal.

Supina Dake was approved for a part-time service coordina-tor position in the county CPC department. Her start date is Jan. 15 with a pay rate at $16.23 per hour.

The fair board spoke to the supervisors about work that had been accomplished at the fair grounds in Colfax including four new roofs on barns and on the vendor building. It said fu-ture projects include two addi-tional roof barns, repainting the

pavilion after flood damage a few years ago and new hog pens. It was also mentioned the possi-ble ADA requirements might be coming, including having paved handicap parking.

In the past year, the fair board received $10,000 for the super-visors but showed the board a break down of how much each county gives to its fair. The av-erage was more than $20,000 in the state. No additional money was requested. It presented an idea of how much the new proj-ects would cost.

The supervisors also heard from representatives of the Jas-per County Museum, engineer and wellness, information sys-tems, maintenance and capital projects and the auditor’s office. Budget workshop talks conclude Wednesday.

Man’s death highlights lack

of cages in Iowa patrol cars

The Associated Press

IOWA CITY — Of-ficers failed to guard an Iowa drunken driving s u s p e c t before he e s c aped from a S t a t e P a t r o l car while h a n d -c u f f e d and was struck by a van and killed, video and reports obtained by The Associ-ated Press show.

Matthew Lentzkow’s death has brought at-

tention to how Iowa State Patrol vehicles lack cages to transport suspects. Lentzkow’s father said the lack of a cage — and the trooper’s decision to not place his son in the nearby vehicle of a sheriff ’s deputy that had one — was one of several factors that con-tributed to the death.

“I’m hoping that no-body else has to bury their kids because of silly mistakes,” Gary Lentzkow said in his first media interview about the death of his son, who he recalled as a

Community Investment Plan under discussion

by city councilBy Jamee A. Pierson

Newton Daily News

City Administrator Bob Knabel gave a pre-sentation about the city’s Community Investment Plan (CIP) at Monday’s city council meeting.

The CIP is one of four documents that make up the city’s strategic plan. The other three docu-ments are the compre-hensive plan, action plan goals and objectives and the annual budget. It is a five year plan cover-ing from 2015 through

2010.“When

you look at these four doc-u m e n t s and you put them toge ther and col-l ec t i ve l y see the

direction the city is tak-ing, where we are going and what we hope to achieve,” Knable said.

H o w -ever, one item at the meeting didn’t involve future planning, but the months ahead. The board unanimously approved a plan to bring two Central College stu-dent-teachers to Newton during the fourth quar-

ter of the 2014-15 school year.

Superintendent Bob Callaghan presented a contract that Central sent to him, which expires June 30.

“We’ve done this, simi-larly, in the fall, with oth-er colleges and universi-ties we’ve partnered with for student teaching,” Callaghan said.

Board member Bill Perrenoud joked that fel-low board members con-sider that he attended Central College before voting. He voted in favor of the measure by loudly and happily saying “aye.”

Timothy Knepper will speak about The Comparison Project: Three Years of Interfaith Pro-gramming and Exploration in the city of Des Moines, of which he is the director, from 7:15 to 8:45 p.m. Jan. 21 at the Newton Congregational United Church of Christ, 308 E. Second St. N.

Knepper is also an associate professor of philosophy at Drake University and the chair of the department of religion and phi-losophy. The event is free and open to the public.

During the discussion, people can learn about three resources that currently support the proj-ect. An ongoing lecture and dialogue series will take place about comparative religion, in Des Moines and throughout the world. Second, a digital story-telling initiative with the reli-gions of Des Moines and finally, a picture book on the religions of Des Moines that Knepper has just started working on with a local photographer.

Founded in 2012, The Com-parison Project was developed as a means of bringing greater awareness to the religious di-versity in Des Moines through a series of interfaith dialogues. It aimed to provide a forum for lo-cal religious congregation to dis-cuss issues of religion and how important they are in the com-munity. Educating the commu-nity at Drake and Des Moines in general about diversity between and within religions was also a focal point of the project.

Since its inception, a third area of focus was added to pro-duce knowledge in comparative philosophy of historical reli-gions. The project began look-ing at highly visible “world reli-

gions” but also lesser known and more misunderstood religions around the world. In the new area, it hopes to compare acts of religious reasons, giving not only to find their differences and sim-ilarities but also find out, explain and evaluate their significances.

Knepper is the director of the project and is assisted by fellow religion and philosophy profes-sors at the university. The ad-visory board of the project in-cludes several members of the

Des Moines community includ-ing Sarai Rice, executive director of the Des Moines Area Reli-gious Council, Richard Deming, medical director of the Mercy Cancer Center and founder and chairman of Above and Beyond Cancer and Bulent Sengun, ex-ecutive director of the Niagara Foundation of Iowa.

Church members brave the cold to bless the Iowa River

CORALVILLE (AP) — Leaders from three Orthodox churches braved the cold to bless the Iowa River as part of an annual event.

About 35 people from St. Raphael Orthodox Church in Iowa City, St. John the Baptist Greek Orthodox Church in Cedar Rapids and St. George Orthodox Church in Cedar Rapids gathered Saturday near the Iowa River Pedestrian Bridge in Coralville.

The leaders say the bless-

ing recognizes the holiday of Theophany, which they be-lieve celebrates the baptism of Jesus Christ in the Jordan River, the Iowa City Press-Citizen reported.

“It ’s cold, but just because it ’s not convenient doesn’t mean we stop this unbroken tradition,” said the Rev. Pe-ter Andronache of St. John the Baptist Greek Orthodox Church. “I think the Ortho-dox church tends to have a lot to say about traditions that are

hundreds and thousands of years old.”

The annual blessing includ-ed a Bible, a bowl of water and a wooden cross attached to a string. The tips of the wooden cross were dipped in the bowl of water before the cross was thrown from the edge of the railing at the bridge. The cross was then reeled back in.

The crowd watched as the religious leaders wore golden robes and carried out the cer-emony.

city to plan long term. There are many projects that take a number of years to complete because of issues with fund-ing, policy and additional unknown problems that can arise.

“There are all kinds of is-sues that come with the big projects that come before the city and this five year plan does give us the means and where with all to appropri-ately plan,” Knable said.

The CIP is funded by seven different sources. The com-munity investment plan has $5,662,200, the general fund has $465,600, the ending fund balance has $1,026,200, the landfill enterprise fund has $4,330,000, the road use tax fund has $3,170,000, the TIF fun has $3,170,000 and the water pollution control fund has $4,638,900 to total $20,377,700.

The community invest-ment plan, general fund and ending fund balance all rely on the general fund and prop-erty taxes for revenue sources. The landfill enterprise fund gets revenue from the landfill, the road use tax fun receives state revenues, the TIF fund relies on taxes specific to dis-tricts and the water pollution control fund is supplied by sewer revenues.

“The landfill and water pollution control enterprise funds, TIF and road use tax have separate revenue sourc-es and capacity to complete most projects presented,” Knable said. “The commu-nity investment fun, general fund and ending fund balance have limited capacity and will require funds beyond current resources as mentioned in franchise fee discussion.”

Over the past five years, the general fund has committed 3.2 percent to capital, which was an average of $309,000 and is projected to be less

than $200,000. In this CIP, $93,000 would need to come from the general fund. Knable gave a word of caution that in two of the past five years there has been under $45,000 avail-able.

From the ending fund bal-ance an average of $350,000 has been available over the past five years, which puts a capacity of $175,000. The cur-rent CIP requires $205,240 and Knable once again said that the amount needed may not be dependable.

In order to meet the needs of the community invest-ment fund, Knable proposed using a bond issue, which the city has a history of do-ing, approximately every two years to cover major needs. The initial amount the fund projects for the first two years is $2,887,700 with projects in six different areas. The airport has projects costing $49,700, new fire equipment totals $940,000, the library has $60,000 in projects, the

parks has $1,024,000, streets and sidewalks have $770,000 and new warning sirens will cost $44,000.

Knable posed several ques-tions to the council on how it would like to proceed includ-ing if bonds should be used every two years for major capital needs, what should be the target for the debt service levy, what are the guidelines for the maximum amount du-ration and term of the bonds, what areas should be included for bond use and should tar-gets be set for the general fund and ending fund balance.

“Honestly, if we don’t have support from council want-ing to commit yourselves to this then let’s not waste a lot of time and energy and pub-lic discussion if we’re not in-terested in doing it,” Knable said.

Council member Noreen Otto replied that she does not like the idea of using bonding but agrees with the way the franchise fee went, the council

needs to make some decisions about the capital projects. She would like to continue the conversation about bonds and get further questions an-swered.

Council member Jeff Price agreed that conversa-tion should continue but did say that he thinks bonding is absolutely necessary for the streets. Overall, the coun-cil agreed that conversation should continue with further questions to be discussed at the budget meeting.

“I do not believe that we should just allow things to happen to us. I think we should step up and make them happen. We make them happen to do something or we make the decision not to do something, but do it in-tentionally and we make the conscious choice either we do it or we don’t,” Knable said.

Both student-teachers will be paid by NCSD at the conclusion of the assign-ment, which should last through the end of the school year. The student-teachers initially report to a school principal.

It wasn’t specified which Newton school or schools will host the student-teachers.

They are to be invited to participate in any pre-service or in-service work-

shops. Newton school personnel will both supervise and evaluate the Central student-teachers.

There were only about nine people in attendance at Monday’s meeting, be-sides the board.

The items that took up the most time were a length were the aging Berg school complex, which the board will take to the voters as an approximately $30-million bond issue, as well as po-tential reconfiguration and approving the Emerson Hough building as an “educational facility.”

The next board meeting will be held Jan. 24 at Berg Elementary.

Tesha Huffaker, of Newton, took top hon-ors in Grinnell Mu-tual’s Hometown Pride Photo Contest. Huf-faker’s photo “Country Beauty” won first in the rural landscape cat-egory.

All of the winning photos are posted on Grinnell Mutual’s web-

Trooper Matthew Papin stopped and ar-rested Lentzkow, who was heavily intoxicated and driving erratically on Interstate 80 about 35 miles east of Des Moines.

Two Jasper County deputies who assisted with the Nov. 1 stop of-fered to place Lentzkow in the cage of their ve-hicle after he tried to flee once and was tackled and handcuffed. Papin de-clined the offer, buckling Lentzkow in the front passenger seat of his car with Lentzkow’s hands

cuffed behind his back, deputies’ reports show.

Patrol video shows all three officers leaving the 36-year-old Newton man in the car while they searched his truck 45 feet away. Lentzkow unbuck-led his seatbelt, opened the door and minutes later attempted to run across the interstate. A van driver slammed on his breaks and tried to swerve but hit Lentzkow.

Jasper County Sheriff John Halferty said the officers, who thought they had done every-thing right at the time, are haunted by the man’s death.

“If it’s hindsight, they would have put him in a cage and had somebody sit with him the whole time,” he said.

After Lentzkow got hit, Papin turned to one of the deputies and asked: “What the hell are you

doing?” He noted in his report that he’d asked the deputy to watch Lentz-kow during the search in which marijuana was found.

The deputy wrote that he was watching Lentz-kow and also monitoring oncoming traffic to pro-tect the officers. He drew his gun and unsuccess-fully ordered Lentzkow to stop after he got out.

Joe Cacciatore, the attorney for Lentzkow’s family, said relatives are considering legal action against the state and county.

“A person in custody should never be in a po-sition to escape from a patrol car when he pres-ents a danger to himself and others,” Cacciatore said. “The officers knew he was impaired. They knew he was a flight risk. Yet they left him un-guarded.”

On New Year’s Eve, I made a resolution to be more active.

O n N e w Y e a r ’ s Day, I broke my foot.

S o that’s the way it’s gonna be, huh? Oh, it’s on, 2015! It. Is. On!

I guess I shouldn’t bust out the brass knuckles just yet — or, you know, buy them. Where does one buy such a thing? Do I lose my street cred if I pick up a decorative pair in the gift shop for the “Newsies” musical?

It is a tad premature to purchase a weapon with a no-return policy. I don’t re-ally know whether I broke my foot. I just really think I did. Despite my best ef-forts, the results have been inconclusive. Either way, it hurts like a beast, and this limp didn’t exactly help me hit the ground running on my resolution.

It all started about noon on Jan. 1. My son and I had come in from a walk, and I was chasing after him and tickling him, when I rammed my foot into the corner of our cof-fee table. Lesson learned: Never, ever, under any cir-cumstances, play with your children.

Everyone is skilled in something. My talent lies in breaking my extremities. I broke my big toe a week before my first marathon. I broke my right thumb within the first month of a four-month backpacking trip in Europe. Nearly 10 years later, I still can’t lift it high enough to hitch-hike back east. I broke two toes jumping into a shal-low pool. Then I broke the rest of the toes slipping on ice while on crutches from the pool break. I am well-versed in tiny digit trauma. And this 2015 coffee table incident was, in my esti-mation, a solid break of at least one of my toes.

Not that I’d let that stop me. After all, I had postponed getting my toe looked at until after the marathon so the doc-tor wouldn’t dissuade me

from running. Every step of those 26.2 miles sent spikes of pain up my leg. I’d still hoofed around the EU, waiting until I arrived home to go to a doctor. Some people call this stu-pid. Namely, my mom. But I call it, well, stupid. But far be it from me to be some-one I am not.

Stubborn and unabash-edly committed to my resolution, I refused to let my injured foot stop me from being more active. So I went to a buffet. There is a lot of walking at a buffet. At least, there is if you’re doing it right.

Over the next few days, my toes stayed blue. And then they turned kinda knobby. A tad crooked. The whole top quarter of my foot went black, too. But I’m fairly confident I read that you shouldn’t see a doctor unless your toes actually start falling off.

Knowing I could rent a wheelchair, I went to the zoo. I only had to hobble across the great expanse of the parking lot. And then one flight of stairs. And then another flight. And then a third, before arriv-ing at the kiosk where you rent wheelchairs. Only to be told we needed to pro-vide a cash deposit and must walk to the other end of the zoo village to access an ATM.

Five days after the inju-ry, I still had not regained movement in my last three toes. I went to urgent care. They didn’t have an X-ray machine. Instead, they re-lied on an ultrasound. Af-ter gooping up my toes and maneuvering the ultra-wand around my foot, the doctor announced that my fourth toe is pregnant with twins. We are all very ex-cited but unsure which of my other toes is the father.

OK, the doctor didn’t see twins. The problem was he didn’t see much of anything. The swelling had caused a fuzzy image. He sent me to another clinic, whose X-ray machine was broken. They sent me to a third clinic, which was too busy to see me. Yesterday I returned to the third clinic and had to wait, standing and pacing in the waiting room for two hours before I was X-rayed.

I’m currently waiting to hear from the doctor regard-ing the results.

“Peaches come in a can. They were put there by a man, in a fac-tory downtown.”

The words of the 1990s band The Presidents of the United States of America certainly ap-ply to me and most other Ameri-cans, but I’m out to change that.

My knowledge of fruit pro-cessing and packaging is about the same as my knowledge of corn and soybeans. Just as I would hope to learn more about fruit in, say, Georgia or Florida, I hope to learn more about the crops that fuel Iowa. It’s great to be able to learn about new things as a part of regular duties, but as reporter in Jasper County, I’m seeing how learning about farm-ing and agriculture can help me become a more well-rounded human being.

Many of the problems in modern society have to do with human relations — humans not communicating, or being unwill-ing or uncaring toward others who are not exactly like them.

It seems if we could learn more about each other — what we do, where we go, what are challenges are and how we address them — it would help us progress toward co-existing with less friction and unrest. Of course, some people tell it as if there were one human solution to all of our world’s ills.

If this one condition could be changed, all would be well. I don’t think things will get easier or smoother in this life with any one magic solution — but I be-lieve learning where food comes from is an important step in a complex process.

A businessman in a large East Coast city, whose knowledge of Iowa might come purely from the Internet, late-night comedi-ans and magazine photos, would be widely criticized for having never been out to the fields or the co-ops or the stockyards to see “boots on the ground” and the real work involved.

While I did grow up far from the fields of Jasper County, not

knowing much more about Iowa than what teachers or textbooks told me, I can change that now. I’m here and willing to learn.

Just as planting corn is one of many steps in making cornmeal, getting the first basic facts is an important step in learning. It doesn’t seem to slow folks down in an argument when they are confronted about a lack of basic knowledge about soil or growing seasons, but I don’t want to be that guy.

It seems easy to find people with strong opinions about ag-riculture.

There seems to be plenty of positive and encouraging, uplift-ing dialogue, about how we’re al-most there, and about to turn the corner in healthy, efficient farm-ing that profits many. Yet at the same time, and, in some cases, within the same conversations, doomsayers talk about the immi-nent demise of humanity, fueled by greed and toxic products and processes.

Who has the answers to the heaviest farming questions? Probably not guys in suits in big cities — unless they’ve been farmers themselves. But farmers and guys in suits are both part of the same economy and infra-structure, so it’s important for them to understand each others’ way of life.

I’ve got a long way to go be-fore even understanding the ba-sics of Iowa corn production. Just this week, I learned how farmers tend to place seed orders with co-ops in the mid-fall. Just be-cause I started at the same place as others doesn’t mean I need to stay there.

Learning about agriculture won’t push me into some high-er moral order, above others who don’t hunger for the same knowledge, but it will help me make more informed choices.

Officers are not above the lawHerman LentzSumner

The case of a state patrol officer stopping a superior of-

ficer for speeding near Newton sounds similar to that case of a DCI Agent Hedlund report-ing Governor Terry Branstad’s car speeding a couple years ago. I hope officer Bryan Guill doesn’t get fired for having the

gumption and bravery to stop a superior officer for violating the law.

He probably would be fired if he had charged the superior officer on the spot/time of vio-lation.

Supports save the Seed Store ideaSherm and Sue SwankNewton

We are so pleased with the idea to save the Newton Seed Store as a family zone place. What a won-derful idea — close to the library and downtown. Great save for the community!

Better yet, how about the city

throwing in the old water building since the roof is now fixed? Make that public restrooms, offices and a kitchen/eating area. Perfect for both buildings and in the winter the inner courtyard could be used for basketball. To the north, a basketball court and a parking lot could be built.

By waterhill there used to be picnic tables, benches, horse shoe

pits and lawn bowling — young and old had a lot of fun. Why can’t we have that again?

Put in geo-thermal and a boiler under floor heat and make it a place we can afford to enjoy. Main Street and grant money maybe could be found. This could be wonderful for race fans with families to enjoy family outings. A destination fam-ily zone! Please rally behind this.

Landes Ladies Park Project receives a $1,000 donation

In an effort to give back and show apprecia-tion for the support they receive from their local community, Wes Finch Auto Plaza donated to local charity organiza-tions during 2014.

Instead of choosing these organizations on their own, Wes Finch Auto Plaza allowed the community to choose which organizations should receive the do-nations. This is done by listing each organization that enters the contest on the Wes Finch Auto Plaza Facebook page and allowing the com-munity to vote by simply “liking” the photo of the logo that represents their favorite local charity.

The third round of this contest for 2014 was conducted Dec. 1 through Dec. 30. Eigh-

teen charity organiza-tions from the local area participated. Lan-des Ladies Park Proj-ect received the most votes and was therefore awarded the $1,000 do-nation from Wes Finch Auto Plaza.

Landes Ladies Park Project was created to update and improve playground equipment in the Brooklyn com-munity. They plan to use the donation from Wes Finch Auto Plaza to purchase an updated play structure that ap-peals to children of all ages.

Wes Finch Auto Pla-za plans on hosting an-other round of the Face-book contest in February. Charity organizations interested in participat-ing should email [email protected] with their contact information.

DEAR ABBY: I’m a good person, but when I get frustrated over some-thing, I fly off the handle. I date, have several close friends and a good job in a field I enjoy.

Stresses in life are normal. But sometimes I blow up over things. When it happens, I can see my co-workers and friends are taken aback by my behavior. I need to improve this. I’m worried my explosive temper will affect my relationships, my job and the people I see socially. I heard you have a booklet about this issue. Where can I get one, and do you have any advice for me? — HOT AND BOTHERED IN ATLANTA

DEAR HOT AND BOTH-ERED: Yes, I do. While anger is a normal emotion, the problem with a hair-trigger temper is that people who fly off the handle often shoot themselves in the foot. That’s why it’s important to develop tools to rec-ognize, control and channel anger ef-fectively without exploding.

A first step in doing that is to analyze what may be setting you off. Does being overtired, hungry or not feeling up to par cause you to lash out? Feeling vulnerable has been known to make people feel angry and has negatively affected relationships. When a person’s beliefs or values are questioned, they can become angry and, believe it or not, low self-esteem causes people to fly off the handle. People who suffer from feelings of inadequacy constantly try to prove themselves — which drives them to win every “battle” whether it’s a discussion about sports or any other subject that arises.

Most adults learn from early childhood to manage anger. But it’s equally important to learn to EX-PRESS anger in ways that are con-structive. In my booklet “The Anger in All of Us and How to Deal With

It,” I offer tools for channeling an-ger. (First among them is to recog-nize you are becoming angry before losing control.) It also contains sug-gestions for managing and expressing anger appropriately. It can be ordered by sending your name and mail-ing address, plus a check or money order for $7 (U.S. funds) to Dear Abby — Anger Booklet, P.O. Box 447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-0447. Shipping and handling are included in the price. I hope it will be help-ful for you. It takes maturity to iden-tify and verbalize negative emotions rather than lash out at others. Being able to calmly say, “When you do that (or say that) it makes me angry” will earn you the respect of others. And it’s the key to defusing anger before losing control.

DEAR ABBY: What are my fi-nancial obligations if I invite a gen-tleman to a formal out-of-state wed-ding? Must I pay 100 percent for airfare, hotel, meals and clothing? — PROPER MISS IN OHIO

DEAR PROPER MISS: If the man is a gentleman, he will offer to split the cost of the airfare, hotel and meals with you. If he’s not — or can’t afford it — then the person footing the bills will be you and only you.

Huckabee slams Obama for letting daughters listen to Beyoncé


DES MOINES — Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee has ac-cused President Barack Obama and his wife Michelle of parenting by double-standard, in an interview published Tuesday, saying they shelter their daughters from some things but allow them to listen to the music of Beyoncé.

While promoting his new book, Hucka-bee told People maga-zine, “I don’t under-

stand how on one hand they can be such doting parents and so care-ful about the intake of everything — how much broccoli they eat and where they go to school ... and yet they don’t see anything that might not be suitable” in the lyrics and a Be-yoncé choreography “best left for the pri-vacy of her bedroom.”

Huckabee described the Grammy Award-winning Beyoncé in his book as “mental poi-son.”

The first lady’s office declined to comment on Huckabee’s com-ments.

Huckabee recently stepped down from his role at Fox News as host of a weekend pro-gram. Having run for president in 2008, and considered running in 2012, Huckabee has said he’s weighing whether to seek the GOP nomination in 2016.

Huckabee is no stranger to such point-ed statements.

Branstad: 2015 devoted to better roads, Internet capability


DES MOINES — Gov. Terry Branstad said Tuesday that he plans to spend this year working to improve Iowa’s roads and Internet infrastruc-ture and to combat school bullying, among other things.

Branstad told the General Assembly during his 2015 Condition of the State speech that it is time to find a bipartisan solution that will increase funding for the state’s bridges and roads, many of which are in disrepair.

“Without action, Io-wa’s roads and bridges face an uncertain future. Our farmers will find it more difficult in deliver-ing commodities to mar-ket,” said Branstad, who called on lawmakers to

help him craft a bi-partisan approach to fund-ing the r e p a i r s i n s t e a d of lay-ing out a plan of his own.

Brans-tad, a Republican who will be sworn in for his sixth term as governor on Friday, has proposed a slightly larger general fund budget for the next fiscal year, of $7.3 billion.

He said he will seek the approval of two ini-tiatives that failed last year — an expansion of broadband Internet and an effort to crack down on bullying. His pro-posals this year include

a grant fund for Inter-net investments and an anti-bullying plan that provides students and schools with more dis-cretion over parental notification.

“Together we can make 2015 the year Iowa acted to protect our children and grand-children by ending bul-lying in schools,” Brans-tad said.

The budget plan also includes funding to sup-port a tuition freeze at state universities and some additional fund-ing for schools. Brans-tad also proposed more investment in parks and cultural initiatives and said he will offer leg-islation to crack down on domestic violence through increased penal-ties for repeat offenders.

Ninth-ranked Pella downs Cardinal boysResponding was key for

Newton High’s Cardinals Tuesday. Newton’s boys re-sponded in the correct way to a disappointing loss Fri-day at Oskaloosa. They re-sponded correctly to having one of their top scorers side-lined with an injury.

Despite another slow start, the Cardinals were in position to upend Class 3A’s ninth-ranked Pella Little Dutch Tuesday. New-ton erased an eight-point first-quarter deficit to trail by three at halftime and to make it a back-and-forth game in the second half.

The Dutch got a three-point play from Will Warner to open the fourth quarter to push the lead to 44-36. Pella fended off each challenge Newton mounted in the fi-nal eight minutes, including hitting seven free throws in the last minute to post a 59-48 Little Hawkeye Confer-ence win over the Cardinals.

“The effort was there all night,” said Nick Wilkins, Cardinal head coach, follow-ing the loss at home. “We talked about responding tonight. We believe we’re a better team than Oskaloo-sa, but we shot 5-of-30 last Friday night from 3-point range and some night’s that happens.

“Our guys didn’t get down. Shots weren’t falling for us again early tonight. The guys stayed with it. Not having Nick (Easley) was tough tonight but Drew Stout played amazing for us. Everyone stepped up tonight.”

Senior guard Nick Easley suffered a foot injury at the

end of Friday’s game at Os-kaloosa and was on crutches Tuesday. Easley said he was hoping to be back by Friday’s home game against Nor-walk. Wilkins said Easley’s status for that game is still unknown.

Wilkins pointed to the de-fensive job the Cardinals did against a Pella team that has already scored 90 points in a game this season. He said to hold Pella, which scores in the 80s, to 59 points was tremendous.

After Warner’s three-point play at the start of the fourth quarter, Newton re-sponded with a 3-pointer by Jake Bennett and a tip-in by Joseph Banfield to trim the margin to three points, 44-41, by the 6:18 mark.

The Little Dutch scored the next six points. Devin Shores scored for Newton with 4:14 on the game clock to make it 50-43. Connor Gholson came up with a steal leading to a bucket by Banfield at it was 50-45 with 2:15 remaining to play.

Jackson Scholton sank both ends of a one-and-one for Pella to push the lead back to seven. Gholson’s only three of the night came at the 1:25 mark and New-ton was back to within four with 1:25 left.

Following a timeout, Pella was content to work the ball on offense. Newton used fouls to stop the clock and extend the game. Ryan VanWyk went 3-for-4 at the free-throw line for Pella. With 5.2 seconds left,

Isaac Naaktgeboren was fouled plus a technical foul was assessed against Wilkins.

For more than five minutes, New-ton High’s Cardinals held Class 4A 12th-ranked Pella’s Lady Dutch with-out a field goal. Then the flood gates opened.

Victoria Jordan came off the New-ton bench to score the first field goal of Tuesday’s Little Hawkeye Confer-ence home game. Jordan’s basket with 2:56 left in the first quarter narrowed Pella’s lead to 4-3.

Pella’s Katie Vander Molen drained a 3-pointer at the 2:25 mark. Another three by Katie Finney put the Lady Dutch up 11-3 with 25 seconds left. Over the first four minutes of the sec-ond period, Pella outscored Newton 15-3 en route to a 59-35 win.

“We came ready not to play,” said Brandon Sharp, Newton head coach. “We’re right there to finish in the top half of the conference and we can’t come out and play like this, if we want to finish in the top half. We can’t let this happen again.

“I know our girls will learn from

this game.”Sharp said the first quarter was

very sloppy for both teams, easy shots missed at both ends of the court. He said the Cardinals gave a very good Pella team too many second-point chances. Newton got out rebounded by the Lady Dutch, 48-32.

“Two main focus points for us are when we get the ball by the basket, we have to finish, and for us to compete, we have to win the rebounding battle. We didn’t do either tonight,” Sharp said.

The Cardinals faced a 37-10 half-

time deficit. They came out of the locker room ready to play in the sec-ond half. Jessica Reynolds took the ball inside for two points then Mi-chaela Jacobsen hit a 3-pointer. Pella’s lead was 53-15 midway through the third quarter.

Newton outscored Pella 26-22 in the second half, but the 27-point dif-ference in the first half was too much to come back from for the Cardinals. Newton shot 22 percent, 10-of-45, from the field. At the free-throw line,

Nevada keeps Tigerhawk hoops in reverse

NEVADA — Colin Lou-rens had another double-dou-ble, Blake Summy put in a season-high and Jarod Nichols grabbed 10 rebounds, but it wasn’t enough for the Colfax-Mingo boys’ basketball team on the road.

The Tigerhawks led for a good chunk of the first half, but suffered a 66-47 loss to Nevada on Tuesday night.

Lourens had 16 points and 14 rebounds to lead the Ti-gerhawks, while Blake Summy added a season-high 11 points. Summy came into the game with 15 points total in the first seven games of the year.

“Our kids played hard,” Colfax-Mingo coach John Borts said. “We led a good deal of the first half and handled their full-court pressure pretty well most of the time.

“We still need to finish more of our close shots and make more free throws. We could have been right there with a chance to win if we do that.”

Colfax-Mingo led 13-10 af-ter one quarter but trailed 28-21 at the break.

Nevada took control for good with a 20-8 surplus in the third.

The Tigerhawks were just 13-of-26 from the line, while Nevada buried 6-of-12.

Jacob Lietz also nine points and six rebounds, but 20 turn-overs dropped the Tigerhawks

to 0-8 on the season.Nevada is now 6-3 overall

and 6-2 in Heart of Iowa Ath-letic Conference play.

The Cubs won their second straight game after losing their three previous games.

Cole Gidel had 14 points and six steals to lead the hosts, while AJ Strottman chipped in 12 and six boards and Matt Chitty scored eight and grabbed nine boards.

Tuttle helps 23rd-ranked

UNI beat rival Braves

PEORIA, Ill. (AP) — Northern Iowa coach Ben Jacobson liked what he saw early in his team’s 63-53 win over Missouri Valley Conference foe Bradley Tuesday night.

But he wished he could forget the final five minutes of a game that saw the Panther’s ninth-ranked defense nearly crumble under an unexpected onslaught from a Bradley team that trailed by more than 20 points just 12 minutes earlier.

“Our offense and defense were terrific in that first half,” Jacobson said.

“But that last four or five minutes, well, I guess that would be on my shoulders. I needed to get them into some-thing that was working against the increased pressure, and didn’t get it done.”

Despite the late troubles, No. 23 North-ern Iowa escaped with the win, thanks in part to 6-8 senior forward Seth Tuttle, who calmly sank four free throws in the final minutes to ice the win.

“Tuttle is just a great player,” said Bradley coach Geno Ford. “Ev-erything they do goes through him. He con-trols the whole game out there.”

The Panthers (15-2, 4-1 MVC) dominated the Braves both offen-sively and defensively early, leading 29-9 at one point late in the first half.

Nate Buss and Paul Jesperson chipped in 11 and 9 points respectively for Northern Iowa.

Mustangs make easy work of Rams

JEFFERSON —Coming off its worst offensive per-formance of the season, the Class 3A No. 13 Prairie City-Monroe girls’ basketball team bounced back in a big way Tuesday night.

The Mustangs scored just 39 points in a five-point loss

to Gilbert last Friday, but they surpassed that total in the first half alone against Greene County, finishing off a season sweep of the Rams, 67-31.

PCM (8-3, 8-1) led 43-13 at the break and has now won six of its last seven games. Greene County (4-7, 4-5) has now lost six games in a row. In two games this season, the Mustangs are outscoring the

Rams 133-66.Rachel Freland finished

with a game-high 19 points for PCM, while Katie Vande-Wall added a season-high 15 points and six rebounds.

Rachel Gulling also was in double-figures with 11.

The Mustang boys also won Tuesday to complete the sweep over Greene County. PCM won its seventh game

in a row following a 65-47 tri-umph. The Mustangs are now 8-2 on the year and 8-1 in Heart of Iowa Athletic Con-ference play.

PCM travels to South Hamilton on Friday. Tip off is set for 6 p.m.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The second-half fade has become a theme for Iowa this season.

So has the resilient win on the road.

Jarrod Uthoff ’s pull-up jumper with 3.5 seconds left Tuesday lifted Iowa to a 77-75 victory over Minnesota, sealed when DeAndre Ma-thieu’s full-court drive for a layup at the buzzer was ruled a split-second late.

“We’re kind of a calm bunch. We’re not an overly emotional group. We don’t typically rattle. We had to fight on those last four min-utes,” Hawkeyes coach Fran McCaffrey said. “I’m really proud of how we did that.”

Uthoff had 16 of his career-high 22 points in the second half for the Hawkeyes (12-5, 3-1 Big Ten), who squan-dered a 17-point lead when the Gophers scored on 15 of 16 possessions. They led 73-69 with 3:11 remaining on a 3-pointer by Joey King, but two front-end misses on one-and-one free-throw oppor-

tunities was s a n d w i c h e d around a pair of foul shots by Uthoff with 2:24 left.

The 6-foot-8 transfer from W i s c o n s i n followed with a 3-pointer for a 75-73 lead,

and Mathieu answered with the tying reverse layup with 1:39 remaining.

But the Hawkeyes got the ball back with 37 seconds left and set up a play for Uthoff, who had a seven-inch height advantage over his defender, Andre Hollins, when he let the ball go from the elbow of the lane. The Gophers were playing three guards at the time.

“If I would’ve jumped with him, I would’ve fouled him because I was literally right on his hip,” a subdued Hol-lins said.

Mathieu was even more distraught in the locker room after his end-to-end race to

re-tie the game was waved off, a call affirmed by review. His double clutch as he ap-proached the defense in the lane delayed his release of the ball just long enough to ne-gate the basket.

“Nothing’s going our way,” Mathieu said.

McCaffrey was preoccu-pied with concern about Io-wa’s lax defense on the play.

“It was no good, so I can only say it was no good,” the coach said. “Kid made a heck of a play.”

Carlos Morris scored 20 points for the Gophers (11-7, 0-5), who have lost four of their five conference games by five points or fewer.

“We talk about finish-ing the job, and the last five games we didn’t finish the job,” said Nate Mason, who bumped Mathieu from the starting lineup and had 17 points.

The Hawkeyes made sev-en of their first eight shots and stretched a 38-27 ad-vantage at the break into a 17-point lead before the first

television timeout of the sec-ond half, before Mason car-ried Minnesota through the dawn of the comeback with his finest college perfor-mance yet. With a 3-pointer and a layup on consecutive possessions, the freshman brought the Gophers within 59-53 to lift the crowd noise to its loudest level to that point.

Mathieu, bumped from his starting spot by Mason, swished a 3-pointer from the corner with a little more than seven minutes remaining to cut the deficit to 65-64 and got a jarring bear hug from coach Richard Pitino right after that. King’s 3-pointer with 6:21 left gave the Go-phers their first lead of the game at 67-65.

But the Hawkeyes, who turned halftime leads into double-digit defeats against Texas, Northern Iowa and Michigan State, kept their poise.

“This is huge for our con-fidence, huge for our morale,” Uthoff said.

the Lady Dutch dropped in 17-of-24 attempts while the Cardinals went 13-of-16.

“It took a whole half of play to snap out of it tonight. In the second half, we played much better. We played with a lot more passion, enthusiasm and fo-cus,” Sharp said.

Sydney Jenkins led the Cardinals with eight points and Michaela Jacob-sen scored seven points. Reynolds con-trolled six rebounds and Michaela Ja-cobsen pulled down five rebounds.

Macy Leonard and Hannah Rhoads each dished out two assists. Rhoads made two steals. The Cardinals had 18 turnovers.

Pella (8-2) improved to 5-0 in Little Hawkeye Conference play. Ciara Buch-heit and Jessica Holterhaus scored 10 points apiece for the Lady Dutch. Pella had three players score nine points.

Newton wrestlers drop double dual at Ames

AMES — Newton High’s wrestling team traveled north Tuesday for a rescheduled double dual with Urbandale and host Ames. It was a rough night on the mat for the Cardi-nals.

Newton won seven out of the 27 matches contest-ed in the double dual. The Cardinals lost to Ames, 61-15, and to Urbandale, 49-21.

Ames has three wres-tlers ranked in Class 3A. They all won in quick order against the Cardi-nals. Sixth-ranked Marcus Coleman pinned Newton’s Brady Smith in 51 seconds at 152. Hank Swall, ranked fifth, pinned Jacob Smith in 53 seconds at 182 and ninth-ranked Harrison Townsend pinned New-ton’s Caleb Kite in 18 sec-onds at 220.

Newton was trailing Ames 27-0 when Duncan Lee claimed a double over-time win against William Hayes at 195 pounds.

Lee came off the bottom for an escape in the third period to tie the match at 1-1. Lee and Hayes went into overtime and Lee used an escape to claim a 4-2 win.

Hunter Versteegh pinned Ames’ Giovanni Alvarez at the 4:58 mark of their 113-pound match. Ames still led 43-9. New-ton’s Lorgan Zibert add-ed six points to the team

score in the final match of the dual, winning at 138 pounds by forfeit.

Against Urbandale, Lee posted a 7-2 decision over Nouri Bouhalk in the 220-pound match. Parker Schuster earned a forfeit win for the Cardinals at 126.

Reece Thurmond pinned Sam Estes in 2:42 at 132 pounds. Bryce Tish finished the dual with a pin of Urbandale’s J.T. Kramer in 1:53 in the 145-pound match.

SULLY — At no time were Lynnville-Sully’s girls or boys in jeopardy of losing at home Tuesday night. The Hawk teams dominated the visiting Tro-jan squads from Tri-County in South Iowa Cedar League play.

Iowa Class 1A’s eight-ranked Lynnville-Sully’s girls reeled off 28 points in the opening eight minutes on their way to a resound-ing 65-32 victory. The Hawk girls led 28-10 after one period.

Next up was the boys’ contest. Lynnville-Sully’s boys locked up control quickly on a 19-9 first-quarter run. The Hawks pushed out to a 36-19 lead by halftime and won going away, 61-35.

Lynnville-Sully’s girls re-mained undefeated at 12-0. They are 11-0 in SICL action.

Lysandra James was the force inside for the Hawk girls. James scored 26 points and pulled down nine rebounds. Brenna Lanser added 10 points, plus had seven rebounds, four assists and five steals in the game.

The Hawk girls extended their 39-16 halftime lead by only giving up two points in the third quarter. Lynnville-Sully poured in 16 points in the period.

“The girls really came out at the start and set the tempo on defense,” said Jerry Huls-ing, Lynnville-Sully girls’ head coach.

“It was good to see us play with a lot of energy and not let Tri-County get into a rhythm on offense. Our passing was sharp tonight which allowed us to get good looks at basket. Everyone contributed to tonight’s win.”

Madison Rasmusson and Marissa Vos each scored nine

points. Kasiah Ehresman had five points and four steals. Shel-by Davis scored four points and Makenzy Rozendall had two points.

The Hawk girls’ defense forced 32 turnovers by the Tro-jan girls. Michaela Lundy scored 12 points for Tri-County.

Following much the same pattern as the girls, Lynnville-Sully’s boys stretch their half-time lead in a big third quarter. The Hawk boys outscored the Trojans, 21-6, in that span.

“The guys did a good job of pressuring the basketball and creating turnovers,” said Nick Harthoorn, Lynnville-Sully boys’ head coach.

“We were able to hurt them on the boards. We didn’t shoot real well from the outside, but were able to find others ways to get the ball in the basket.”

Sage Ehresman led a bal-anced scoring attack for the Hawk boys with 16 points. Jesse Van Wyk scored 11. Ben Tret-tin had 10 points, nine rebounds and six steals.

Kyle VanDyke worked in-side for eight points and pulled down seven rebounds. Baker Zegers had six points followed by John Trettin with five, Tyler Van Zante with three and Caleb James with two.

Jacob Bombei and Dalton Ehret scored 11 points and 10 points, respectively for the win-less Trojans.

Lynnville-Sully’s boys im-proved to 7-3 overall and 6-3 in SICL play.

The Hawk teams go to Mon-tezuma Friday.



Lynnville-Sully girls,boys win home SICL games



Naaktgeboren downed four straight free throws to seal the game for the Little Dutch.

“Drew and Jake Bennett hit some big threes at big spots for us in the game. They are guys not looked upon by other teams as scorers and to have them ex-ecute and score for us tonight was great,” Wilkins said.

“We had guys doing a lot of little things right out there and we saw a lot of good things from our team tonight.”

Newton’s offense was slow to get going again. The Cardinals trailed 7-3 when Bennett drained a 3-pointer with 2:50 left in the first quarter. Pella carried a 14-6 lead into the second period.

Grant Judkins opened the sec-ond quarter with a 3-pointer for Pella. Newton’s Tyler Wood made a high lob pass to the basket and Jordan Travis finished with a bas-ket. Banfield scored for the Car-dinals to cut the deficit to seven, 17-10.

Newton was down 21-12 when Stout and Bennett drained back-to-back threes. A trey by Wood at the 3:23 mark made it 23-21. Pella responded with a outback by Warner and a field goal by Garrett Jansen.

Wood netted a 3-pointer with 1:32 left in the first half and Newton wad down by three, 27-24. A strong defensive stand and Newton had the basketball at the end of the second quarter.

A long 3-point attempt by Wood with about three seconds left on the clock bounced off the front of the rim. Newton trailed 27-24 at the break.

The Cardinals outscored the Little Dutch 6-2 in the opening two minutes of the third quar-ter to take their only lead, 30-29, of the night. Travis had the first basket which was answered by a bucket from Pella’s Warner. Wood scored then Banfield’s field goal put the Cardinals up.

Pella claimed an offensive re-bound off a missed free throw and Seth Johnson buried a three.

Wood had a three-point play at Newton’s end with 4:38 left in the third and it was 34-33.

Down by three, Stout drilled a trey at the 3:35 mark to tie the game at 36-36, but Pella scored five unanswered to lead 41-36 heading into the fourth quarter.

The Little Dutch cashed in on 21-of-27 free throw attempts in the game while Newton at-tempted just two, hitting both, free throws in the game.

“Hey, as I told our guys after the game, this is still a work in progress and we’re not quite half-way through the season,” Wilkins said. “We get to play these teams again, which is fun. We’ll build on this and get ready for Norwalk on Friday.”

Wood topped the Newton scoring list with 11 points fol-lowed by Banfield with 10. Ben-nett added nine and Stout had six — all those points came on 3-point field goals from the two guards.

Naaktegboren was 7-of-8 at the line on his way to a team-high 16 points for Pella. Warner tossed in 12 points. Pella improved to 7-2 overall and 3-2 in Little Hawkeye play.

Newton is 1-4 in LHC action and 5-5 overall. The Cardinals host Norwalk Friday.

Astrograph

The Mars-square-Saturn situation rocks people to the core. Ambitions that felt like a natural extension of who we are suddenly get thwarted. Not only that, but foundational thinking will feel all wrong. Why did we want it in the first place? Don’t let yourself get too disheartened. Be inwardly gentle and reasonable as you question your original intentions.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Jan. 14). What makes this year’s story so great is that whatever comes, love and perseverance will win out in the end. The next six weeks bring a lucky break. Just don’t try to grow too quickly, and save your money. March is a happy song for your love life, and many people will be happy to share your joy. Aries and Gemini people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 5, 23, 4, 11 and 14. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Happiness is simple today. You put your whole self into mundane tasks like paying bills or making dinner. Conse-

A list can be like a playground for your mind, a mental way of trying things on for size. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’re still trying to break yourself of a certain habit that no longer serves you well. You’ll have more success when you think of

replacing the habit with a better one. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Before you let your-self fall for the thing that is out of reach, be sure it’s worth falling for. Make sure that “unobtainable” isn’t the most appealing thing about it. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Hold on, because to-day’s atmosphere may turn wild, hectic and unsup-portive. It’s why you need to give yourself a good breakfast and leave plenty of time for getting from place to place. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). No one can be exactly like you, though a few will try! Take it as a compliment. You’re the big sibling of the zodiac now, and the others are learning from the way you manage things. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The ones who try to eliminate the competition through negative press are clearly insecure about what they have to offer.

The only legitimate way to eliminate the competition is to do it better, faster or cheaper. Maybe all three! LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Today features high stakes and intense competition. Keep in mind that an obliging attitude will gain you more respect than any fine trapping you could drive around in or throw on your back. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You give smiles, help and many other things be-sides money. It just doesn’t quite feel right to hand over cash. Tighten those purse strings. Hold back until you’re sure where your money will do the most good. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Change is natural, but it’s not always easy. In order to become who you want to be, you have to sacrifice something about the person you are now. COPYRIGHT 2015 CREATORS.COM
