Veterans supermarket slated for May 17 By SARAH BROWNCNA staff [email protected]

Veterans Affairs personnel from Adams and Union counties are providing a one-stop “shopping” experience for southwest Iowa veterans 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. May 17 at Creston’s Restored Depot, 116 W. Adams St.

This “supermarket of veterans benefits” will bring dozens of agencies under one roof to learn about benefits they are entitled

to, but possibly not receiving.“It’s been seven or eight years

since we have had a program like this in Creston,” said Gary O’Daniels, VFW Post 1797 Com-mander. “It allows veterans to come to a centralized spot in-stead of driving to Des Moines or Omaha.”

O’Daniels said the “super-market” is a place for veterans to receive information about eligibility, women’s programs, disability compensation and Dis-abled Veteran Association, pen-sion and healthcare services such as vision, hearing and mental health. Information about ob-

taining military records, med-als and burial in veteran cem-eteries may also be addressed.

The event, which is spon-sored by the Veterans Af-fairs Central Iowa Health Care System will also feature local organizations and businesses including, but not limited to Southwestern Community Col-

lege admissions, Southwest Iowa Hospice and Fredricksen Memo-rials.

O’Daniels said there may be veterans and dependants who are eligible for various benefits but who, for some reason, have never applied for them.

There is no charge to attend the VA “supermarket.” Refresh-ments will also be served.

For more information, contact Union County Veterans Affairs Director Blaise Reha at (641) 782-1723.

� Dozens of agencies will be available to help local veterans May 17 at the restored Creston Depot located at 116 W . Adams St.

Are you ready for Taste of the Town?

The fourth annual Taste of the Town event will be held in Creston May 9-10 whereby several local busi-nesses will be serving appetizer-type foods to the public during regular business hours.

The theme this year is “On the Right Track.”

“This theme goes back to our heritage of the rail system,” said Ellen Gerharz, executive director at Chamber of Com-merce. “This is a fun event where you try some tasty foods at local businesses and if you like it, there will be recipes available so you can try making it at home.”

Gerharz said the list of foods being served this year at participating busi-nesses has not been finalized yet, but will be available next week.

Each year, about 20 businesses par-ticipate in this event serving items like peanut butter bars, taco soup, chicken wing dip and banana bread.

Food needed at local pantryThe shelves at MATURA Family Development Center’s food bank in Union County are “very, very low.” They are in need of any and all dona-tions.

“This year, we’ve seen about a 60 per-cent increase in the number of house-holds being helped,” said Ron Ludwig, executive director at MATURA.

Food donations can be delivered to the east side of the MATURA build-ing located at 207B N. Elm St. in Cres-ton. Items most needed include cans of soup, canned vegetables, macaroni and cheese, spaghetti noodles and spaghetti sauce.

Also, MATURA is hosting a friend-ship fund hot breakfast fundraiser 5:30 to 9:30 a.m. May 9 at Trinity Lutheran Church, 800 N. Sumner.

Menu includes eggs, French toast and ham. Cost is $5 per plate for eat in or to go.

Call MATURA at 782-8431 for ticket information.

Friendship funds are for anything clients need that are not covered by any of the other MATURA programs and services. This may include eye-glasses, dental work, water deposits and prevention of water disconnects.

Twister kills 35 as storm system heads east

(MCT) — As a deadly storm system continued its eastward trek Tuesday, the South began tallying its losses from a tornado outbreak that killed at least 35 people in a swath from Arkansas, Okla-homa and Iowa to Mississippi, Alabama and Tennessee.

In Iowa, KCRG-TV reported that An-gie Hanchett was killed in her home in Kinross Sunday. Pam Ledger of Keokuk County died Tuesday morning from her injuries sustained after a barn collapsed on her during Sunday’s storm.

The harsh weather carved a wound from the Midwest and eastward, bring-ing severe thunderstorms, fierce winds and large hail, with the latest tornadoes damaging homes in North Carolina on Tuesday evening. Significant portions of Alabama and Mississippi remained un-der tornado watch.

Hundreds of injuries have been report-ed since Sunday as homes and buildings toppled, mobile homes were tossed like toys and heavy vehicles twisted in the wind.

This week’s tornadoes occurred near the anniversary of a 2011 outbreak that left more than 350 people dead across the South. In Alabama, more than 250 peo-ple died April 27, 2011, from more than 60 twisters.

This year’s tornado season had a much less severe start but it was still deadly. Dozens of tornadoes have touched down in recent days, with the majority scour-ing central Mississippi and northern Ala-bama on Monday.

Arkansas, especially in the Little Rock-area towns of Vilonia and Mayflower, was especially hard hit Sunday with 15 deaths in three counties. A sequence of at least two tornadoes scoured a nearly straight line of damage through the cen-tral part of the state, bringing winds in ex-cess of 136 mph and carving a track more than half a mile wide in places.

Speaking in Washington on Tuesday, Arkansas Republican Rep. Steve Wom-ack said: “The state’s in a state of shock

Teen gets prison for bringing gun to school

WATERLOO (MCT) — A former Dunkerton High School student was sen-tenced to prison Monday for bringing a loaded fire-arm to school.

Mar’yo Lindsey Jr. was sentenced to five years in prison for carrying weap-ons, five years for being in possession of a firearm as a felon and two years in pris-on being in possession of a firearm on school grounds. The sentences are to be served concurrently.

Lindsey was also given credit for time served on a

count of possession of mari-juana.

Lindsey said little during the hearing. His attorney, Matthew Hoffey, said Lind-sey was a young man who made a serious mistake. He asked the sentence be sus-pended.

“No one was ever threat-ened with this weapon, it was never displayed,” Hof-fey said.

Assistant County Attor-ney Peter Blink pointed out Lindsey had been sentenced under similar charges in ju-venile court.

“This defendant con-tinues to surround him-self with firearms when he shouldn’t,” Blink said.

Judge David Staudt agreed, and noted the ju-venile weapons possession case was adjudicated just a year before a August 2013 incident involving Lindsey.

Lindsey played for the Dunkerton football team, and authorities said he brought a long-barreled Ru-ger Single Six revolver

Iowa man caught with 32 pounds of marijuana

SAVANNA (MCT) – A regular traffic stop in rural Savanna on Monday turned into a rather large arrest for the Carroll County Sheriff’s Department.

Deputies say that after pulling over an Iowa man, they found 32 pounds of pot in his car.

Eric T. Irwin, of Nampa, Iowa, was charged with trafficking marijuana.

A Carroll County sher-iff’s deputy pulled Irwin over for a regular traffic stop when the deputy re-quested a K-9 unit, accord-

ing to a news release.When the extra car ar-

rived, the dog, Illo, “hit” on the car, at which point dep-uties found the marijuana.

Irwin was taken to Car-roll County Jail on Monday. The sentence for drug traf-ficking can range anywhere from 6 to 30 years in prison.

right now.” Womack, whose district northwest of Little Rock was spared much of the damage, added: “These will try your souls.”

The dangerous storms moved through Mississippi, where torna-does began to strike Monday after-noon through the evening. Tupelo, a community of about 35,000 people in northeastern Mississippi, was hard hit and every building in a two-block area was damaged, officials told tele-vision reporters.

Officials said nine people died in Mississippi’s Winston County, where Louisville is the county seat, with about 6,600 people. An apparent EF-4 tornado with winds stronger than 160 mph swept the area, severe-ly damaging a medical center and a nursing home.

As of Tuesday, the Mississippi Emergency Management Agency confirmed at least 12 deaths across the state.

Ruth Bennett, 53, died saving a child at her Ruth’s Child Care Cen-ter when the tornado hit Louisville. A firefighter who came upon her body gently pulled the toddler from her arms, according to The Associ-ated Press.

“It makes you just take a breath now,” said next-door neighbor Ken-neth Billingsley, who witnessed the scene at what was left of the center. “It makes you pay attention to life.”

Bennett’s niece, Tanisha Lockett, said she had worked at Ruth’s Child Care since it opened seven years ago. She said that all but the one child had been picked up before the storm. The 4-year-old, whose name was not released, was taken to a Jackson hos-pital.

“We’re just trying to keep a smile on our faces,” said Jackie Ivy, an employee who was helping with the cleanup Tuesday. “I cried all last night.”

Mississippi Republican state Sen. Giles Ward huddled in a bathroom with his wife, four other family mem-bers and their dog Monday as a tor-nado destroyed his two-story brick house and flipped his son-in-law’s SUV upside-down onto the patio in Louisville.

“For about 30 seconds, it was unbelievable,” Ward told report-ers. “It’s about as awful as anything we’ve gone through.”

Another person died in Mississip-pi when her car either hydroplaned or was blown off a road during the storm in Verona, south of Tupelo.

Three weather-related deaths were confirmed in Alabama, with 19 coun-ties reporting storm damage. One of those tornadoes destroyed the Kim-berly Church of God in Kimberly,

Ala. Pastor Stan Cooke was using the church as a community shelter, keeping about 25 people safe under-ground.

“I cried. I cried,” Cooke said to television reporters. “The church is not the people; the people are the church.”

In southern Tennessee, two people were killed in a home when a sus-pected tornado hit Monday night, Lincoln County Emergency Man-agement Director Mike Hall told The Associated Press. The winds de-stroyed several other homes as well as a middle school in the county that borders Alabama, Hall said.

The storm even sent the staff at a TV news station running for cover. Chief meteorologist Matt Laubhan at NBC affiliate WTVA-TV in Tu-pelo, Miss., was reporting live on the air about 3 p.m. when he realized that the twister was approaching. He warned viewers and his 35 co-work-ers to get to safety.

“This is a tornado ripping through the city of Tupelo as we speak. And this could be deadly,” he said in a video widely tweeted and broadcast on YouTube.

Moments later he added, “A dam-aging tornado. On the ground. Right now.”

“Basement, now!” he yelled to the staff before disappearing off camera.

to an away game inside a backpack that was stored in his school-issued gear bag in August. He became injured during the game at Riceville and was taken to a hospital for treatment.

School officials took Lindsey’s bag back to school, where they found the weapon loaded with one round. Also in the bag was marijuana, rolling pa-pers and a plastic bag la-beled “Maryo” containing a cell phone.

“Clearly you’re not get-ting the point,” Staudt said. “You got a heck of a break even then.”

Blink said a prison term would send a message to the community that has a

“plague of violence.”Lindsey’s friends and

family packed the court-room for the hearing. His father, Mar’yo Lindsey Sr., agreed that some people need an example of conse-quences for their actions, but added the state found the wrong target.

“I’ve seen people do worse and not go to pris-on,” said Lindsey Sr., add-ing his son had no intention of harming anyone.

“I just feel he would have had a chance on proba-tion,” Lindsey said.

2014

I wasn’t nervous to give my speech at the Orient-Macksburg National Honor Society induc-tion ceremony until I looked out into the crowd and saw all the fa-miliar student faces.

But they weren’t so familiar anymore; they were older and matured by life’s lessons. They all looked up at me expecting words of encouragement, motivation and hope.

In my now shaking hands, I held an outline of a speech that high-lighted the virtues of the honor society — scholarship, leadership, service and character.

What had I accomplished that made me qualified to give a speech

that would mean anything to the students at O-M?

When did I become an expert on being a scholar or becoming a leader?

How had I exemplified proper service and good character?

It felt like just a short time ago I was the one sitting in on the stage at an induction ceremony trying to soak up as many life lessons as I

could before stepping out into the real world on my own.

I was 18 and planning my entire life around someday. I went off to college to gain the knowledge that would allow me to make a differ-ence. I spent time traveling the country. I made new friendships, worked late nights and tried great food.

But before I knew it, the some-day I had been planning for all along was that day, on stage at my old high school. I felt old, and more importantly, like I had failed what I set out to do six years ago.

With a wavering voice, I gave my speech. Thankfully, some of the students and parents laughed

at my jokes, but I left Orient feel-ing like I was not able to convey the importance of living life for today, not just planning for some-day.

What I don’t want to happen is for my someday to turn into yesterday. When I look back on my life a couple years from now, I don’t want to regret the times I didn’t go see friends, minutes I could have shared with loved ones or days I should have spent smil-ing instead of stressing.

I may have gained more from giving my speech at O-M than the people who came to listen. I am still learning a lot about myself and where I want to be, but I can’t

spend my days waiting for some-day to happen.

There is a barrenness to a busy life. Filling up every minute of the day with tasks that do not hold any meaning are just as wasteful as the minutes spent procrastinating in-stead of being proactive.

If you do not know where or how to start living for today, the virtues of the honor society — scholar-ship, leadership, service and char-acter — are a good benchmark.

This week’s motivation: The trick is to enjoy life. Don’t wish away your days, waiting for better ones ahead. - Marjorie Pay Hinck-ley

HOLLYWOOD — God bless America, and how’s everybody?

L.A. Clippers owner Donald Sterling was caught on tape tell-ing his girlfirend not to bring black people to his games. Fans were angry and puzzled. If Don-ald Sterling really had that much of a problem with black people, you’d think he would have bought a hockey team instead.

John Kerry warned Israel if it doesn’t adopt a two-state solutionit will become an apartheid state like old South Africa. Apartheid is an ugly old system of racial seg-regation. Donald Sterling heard what Kerry said and he immedi-ately made plans to move the Clip-pers to Tel Aviv.

Jesse Jackson urged the NBA to suspend Donald Sterling as owner of the L.A. Clippers and he likened Donald Sterling to the antebellum slave owners back in the Old South. That is not fair at all. Say what you want about slave owners, but they never went over the salary cap.

Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel announced plans for the city to build the Barack Obama College Preparatory High School that opens in three years. The school is already plagued with problems. People are trying to enroll their kids in the school, but the website’s not working.

President Obama said farewell to Kuala Lumpur Monday and flew out of Malaysia to the Philip-pines. He made it. The Secret Ser-

vice may drink and chase hookers when they’re on the road, but by God, they can get you out of Ma-laysia, which is more than the local airlines can say.

Hillary Clinton said Saturday older women can still make adifference in politics. She said she doesn’t know if she’ll run forpresident. With three hundred mil-lion Americans, what are the odds she’s the only one in the country who doesn’t know she’s running for president in 2016.

The American Distillers Asso-ciation over the weekend set up a booth at the National Rifle Asso-ciation Convention in Indianapo-lis. The distillers have an issue and this is the place to push it. Millions of people are outraged that Geor-gia doesn’t grant liquor licenses to gun ranges.

The Beverly Hills Hotel was boycotted by the gays Friday after the hotel owner, the Sultan of Bru-nei, decreed the death penalty for gay sex in Brunei. This is one of the nicest hotels in the world. At the Beverly Hills Hotel the towels are so thick you can barely close your suitcase.

French president Francois Hollande named his ex-partner Segolene Royal to his cabinet

Friday. He left her for journalist Valerie Trietweiler whom he just left for actress Julie Gayet, twenty years younger than him. Under French infidelity law he could get up to twenty high fives.

Arbor Day was celebrated Fri-day which is the day Americansappreciate trees and the U.S. pio-neers who planted trees as they came west. Trees naturally bring Al Gore to mind. Al Gore will always be a inspiration to every American who ever suffered from Dutch Elm Disease.

The Vatican hosted a canoniza-tion ceremony Sunday inducting Pope John XXIII and Pope John Paul II into sainthood. The church is getting pretty lax about the defi-nition of miracles required for can-onization. John Paul II was cited for being really lucky at finding parking spots.

North Korea’s Kim Jung Un de-cided to play nice and not set offnuclear tests while Barack Obama was visiting in South Korea lastFriday. After all, they both love NBA basketball. The North Ko-rean dictator has a gentle side, he looks at Dennis Rodman as the uncle he never killed.

Iran’s Ayatollah Khameni began promoting a baby-making cam-paign, offering a gold coin to every couple that has a baby. He wants to double Iran’s population. If he’s serious about more pregnancies, he may have to join the sixteenth century and legalize cleavage and alcohol.

O-M FFA members attend 2014 World Food Prize’s Iowa Youth Institute

ORIENT — Orient-Macksburg FFA members Merritt Caviness and Wyatt Hensley recently attended the 2014 World Food Prize’s Iowa Youth Institute held annually at Iowa State Uni-versity in Ames.

The Iowa Youth Institute connects students interested in science, agriculture and related fields with Iowa lead-ers and innovators on the cutting edge of science and research.

Each participating high school student wrote a re-search paper on a key issue that impacts hunger in an-other a country, such as wa-ter scarcity in Afghanistan or a lack of rural infrastructure in Brazil. The students pro-posed their own solutions in small-group roundtable dis-cussions facilitated by aca-demic and industry experts, and students and teachers also participated in hands-on “immersion” activities in research facilities and labs at Iowa State University.

Students also heard from and interacted with 2010 World Food Prize Laureate Jo Luck, Gov. Terry Brans-

tad, Lt. Gov. Kim Reynolds, and ISU President Steven Leath.

This year marks the third anniversary of the Iowa Youth Institute, and the 20th anniversary of the very first World Food Prize youth

program, the Global Youth Institute.

Adair County 4-H’ers bring home state project awards GREENFIELD — Adair

Merritt Caviness, high school senior, earned the state science, engineering and technology award. He is currently president of Adair County Hot Shots and five-year member of Speak Out for Agriculture Planning Committee. Merritt is the son of Randy and Janalee Caviness of Greenfield.

Nodaway Valley sopho-more Heath Downing earned the state beef award. He is currently president of Richland Royals and is a two-year member of Adair

County 4-H Youth Coun-cil. Downing is the son of Steve and Karen Downing of Creston.

Anna Horn, West Cen-tral Valley junior, earned the state horse award. She is a member of Jefferson Pioneers and active in fine arts activities at West Cen-tral Valley High School. Horn, daughter of Jeff and Brenda Horn of Stuart, is also a member of Central Iowa Dancing Hooves Drill Team.

Nodaway Valley fresh-man Riley Lonsdale earned the state citizenship award. She is a six-year member of Adair County Wing Walk-ers and also a member of Adair County 4-H Youth Council. Lonsdale, daugh-ter of Martin and Maureen Lonsdale of Greenfield, is a four-year recipient of the President’s Volunteer Service Award for devot-ing more than 700 hours to

community service.Morgan Smith, West

Central Valley sophomore, earned the state commu-nication award. She is a member of Harrison Hum-mers and Adair County 4-H Youth Council. Smith, daughter of Christine Smith of Stuart, has attended State 4-H Conference and competed at the state level in communication activities.

Nodaway Valley High School senior Hannah Yount earned the state horse award. She is current-ly president of NV Champi-ons and member of Adair County 4-H Youth Council. Yount, daughter of Louise Convery and Bill Yount of Greenfield, is active in her 4-H club and Nodaway Val-ley FFA Chapter.

ACHS implementing state-of-the-art health information technology GREENFIELD — Adair

County Health System (ACHS) has entered into an agreement to implement a suite of state-of-the-art health information tech-nology (IT) solutions from Kansas City-based Cerner Corporation, including a se-cure electronic health record (EHR) system. The EHR system eliminates the need for paper patient health re-cords and acts as the single source of truth for accurate health information.

The new technology pro-vides ACHS clinicians with

access to medical best prac-tices and ensures they have access to the right informa-tion at the right time at the point of care. Implement-ing this technology will also assist ACHS in qualifying for Medicare and Medicaid financial reimbursements provided for in the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act for hospitals that demonstrate meaningful use of health in-formation technology.

Other benefits from the new system for ACHS in-

clude:• Ensuring medication

safety. When prescribing medications, physicians can access a patient’s medical history, including allergies and diagnostic results, to ensure accurate medication administration.

• Reducing medical errors. If a physician were to inad-vertently prescribe an adult dose to a child, the decision support features within the system would alert him or her of the potential over-dose, as well as drug interac-tions and alternatives.

• Providing quality care. The use of standardized treatment guidelines pro-motes evidence-based, effec-tive and consistent care for every patient while enabling quality improvement and operational efficiency.

• Reducing transcription errors. All care is document-ed electronically, virtually eliminating the possibility of errors because of illegible handwriting.

• Improving access to in-formation. Clinicians have instant access to patient in-formation when and where

they need it and no longer have to spend time searching for misplaced paper charts.

Additional Cerner solu-tions will digitize processes in multiple departments, providing instant access to clinical information and integrating workflow with the patient’s EHR. The so-lutions automate nursing communication, intensive care unit operations, clini-cian documentation, image management, pharmacy and laboratory operations, medi-cation administration pro-cesses, patient accounting

and surgery operations.“Adair County Health

System is committed to pro-viding quality care for our community,” said Angela Mortoza, CEO at ACHS. “Implementing Cerner as our EHR is a step towards making sure our patients’ information is accurate and easily accessible to all of the providers at Adair County Health System.”

Thursday, May 1, 2014 ARIES (March 21 to April

19) This is an interesting day with new faces and new plac-es. Spontaneous short trips are likely; and your mind is buzzing with bright ideas!

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) You might have clever moneymaking ideas today; however, do

keep an eye on your cash and your possessions. If shopping, keep your receipts and count your change.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Today the Moon is in your sign dancing with unpredict-able Uranus - this makes you feel restless. You want excite-ment, but nothing too crazy.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) It’s hard to settle down today because your ruler the Moon is mildly disturbed by another planet and it is hid-den in your chart. This is very minor and will be gone in a day.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) A female friend might sur-prise you today. Or, alterna-tively, you might meet a female acquaintance who is bizarre or unorthodox. It’s not a boring day!

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Conversations with author-ity figures, especially females, will be unpredictable today. Someone might say something that excites or offends you. (Don’t quit your day job.) In any case, it will likely be a posi-tive exchange.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Unexpected travel plans might fall in your lap today. Similarly, a chance to take a course or study something new and stimulating could come your way.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Keep in touch with your bank account and details about shared property, because a few surprises are possible today. Fortunately, they look like posi-tive issues. (Fingers crossed.)

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Because the Moon today is opposite your sign, you will have to go more than halfway when dealing with oth-ers. This is no big deal. Easy peasey for some Sagittarians, who are so friendly and breezy.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Your work routine will be unpredictable today, perhaps because of computer crashes, electronic glitches

or equipment breakdowns. Or someone unexpected may change your day.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) This is a mildly accident-prone day for your kids so par-ents should be extra vigilant. However, it’s a productive day for artists and anyone working on creative projects.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Minor breakages could occur or small appliances might break down today. Surprise company might knock on the door. Expect the unex-

pected! YOU BORN TODAY You

speak your mind. You know how to communicate with or without words. Although witty and sardonic, you seek a calm environment. You are a realist who takes a keen interest in the world around you. This year you will have opportunities for growth and a chance to start to boost your finances for the next three years. Reduce your debt. All your relationships will improve. Bonus!

Dear Readers: Many times, a piece of GLASS BAKE-WARE may shatter, and it’s not very fun or safe to clean up. As we were talking in Hel-oise Central about the issue, it came up how many of us have NEVER read the directions. Or we just use and clean them the way our mothers did. To-day’s glass bakeware is not the same as that of long ago. So, here are a few hints for you to think about:

• Don’t use bakeware if it is damaged in any way (chipped, scratched or cracked).

• Don’t clean it with any-thing abrasive or use a metal brush to clean it with.

• The oven should be at the temperature you are going to bake with.

• Rapid changes in tempera-ture (i.e., going from the oven and then placing the bakeware on a cold surface, countertop or metal trivet) are a no-no.

• Don’t use it in a toaster oven. I’ve done this! Who knew?

Don’t buy glass bakeware at a thrift store or garage sale. You have no idea how it’s been handled, and it may be unsafe. — Heloise

com FREEZING CHEESEDear Heloise: Can I freeze

packages of cheese slices (like the cheese slices that are indi-vidually wrapped in plastic)? How about the little blocks of cheese that are wrapped in plastic? I am referring to un-opened packages. — Paul A., via email

Yes, you can freeze most cheese, including the slices and the blocks wrapped in plastic. Do put the cheese in a freezer-safe plastic bag or container first, though. The cheese may be more crumbly after it’s been frozen, but it is fine to eat. — Heloise

CLEAN MICROWAVEDear Heloise: I learned this

hint years ago. Use a micro-wave-safe 2-cup measuring cup, fill it with about 3/4 cup water, then add a teaspoon

of your favorite flavor to it (for example, vanilla, lemon extract, etc.). Microwave on high for a few minutes (until it boils), then shut off the micro-wave and let it sit for about 15 minutes.

The moisture from the steam will have softened all the cooked-on splatters, and the inside will wipe clean. Plus, the flavoring will put a nice aroma in your kitchen. — Kathy C., via email

DRAWER DIVIDERSDear Heloise: On a clean-

ing spree, I decided that my drawers needed some serious reorganizing. I used cleaned cookie and cracker dividers from the packages to hold little things (like buttons and pins in my desk) and cut down cereal boxes to organize my socks in my dresser, and I am so happy. Nothing gets mis-placed anymore! — Helene, via email

PERFECT POWDERDear Readers: If you’re

looking for a delicate accent to fruits and desserts, try filling a tea steeper with powdered sugar and shaking to sprinkle the perfect amount onto the goodies. It’s as simple as that! — Heloise

apple fritter cake

WOW!! Another great cake to serve anytime. This was another hit with the advertising department. Smakelijk eten!

apple fritter cakeFor Filling

1 heaping cup of sliced apples, cored, pealed and sliced

1/3 cup sugar

1/4 tsp. cinnamon

small pinch freshly grated nutmeg

2 Tbsp. cornstarch

2 tsp. water

1/2 cup brown sugar

1/2 tsp. cinnamon

For Filling:

Make your filling by combining apples, sugar, water, cinnamon and cornstarch in a small saucepan. Cook on low heat for 5 to 7

minutes, stirring constantly until the sauce is thickend and the apples are a bit soft. Set aside to cool. In a small bowl, mix the

brown sugar and cinnamon together until well combined and set aside.

For Cake:

Preheat oven to 350°. Grease and flour a 9x13 baking dish. Set aside.

Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add applesauce and vanilla and mix till combined. Add the eggs,

one at a time, beating well after each addition.

Sift the dry ingredients together. Add the dry ingredients to the batter in three parts alternating with the yogurt in two parts,

beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Beat until just combined.

Spoon half of the batter into the prepared pan. Spoon the cooled apple mixture over the batter carefully and spread as evenly

as possible. Sprinkle 2/3 of brown sugar cinnamon mixture over apples and cover with the rest of the batter. Sprinkle the rest of

the brown sugar cinnamon mixture over the top.

Bake for 45-55 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

For Glaze:

While the cake is baking, make the glaze. In a bowl, mix the powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk until the glaze is desired

consistency. When the cake comes out of the oven, immediately but carefully pour onto hot cake. Try to pour as evenly as

possible. You might have to pick up the cake and tilt it to spread the glaze evenly. I even poured some out that pooled at the

corners and repoured that over the top. Let the cake sit for awhile for the glaze to set.

For Cake:

1/3 cup butter

3/4 cup sugar

1/2 cup applesauce

1 tsp. vanilla

2 eggs

2 1/4 cups flour

1 tsp. baking powder

1 tsp. baking soda

1 tsp. salt

1 tsp. cinnamon

1 cup greek yogurt (you could use plain yogurt as well or sour cream)

For Glaze:

2 cups powdered sugar

1 tsp. vanilla

6 Tbsp. milk

Cinco de Mayo is, offi cially, a holiday celebrating Mexico’s victory over France in the 1862 Battle of Puebla. In the U.S., where it is actually celebrated with more gusto than in its native country, the holiday has

become a celebration of Mexican heritage and culture. Fresh sweet corn is an essential component of many Mexican

dishes and a cultural staple. Luckily, Cinco de Mayo falls right in the middle of Florida’s Sunshine Sweet Corn season, meaning that the sweetest corn, available all year, arrives just in time to be a part of your Cinco de Mayo celebration.

Panthers primed for Glenwood showdownLC girls sail 10-0

By LARRY PETERSONCNA sports writer • [email protected]

COUNCIL BLUFFS — On a rain-soaked turf field, Lewis Central girls and Creston boys won soccer shutouts here Tuesday night.

The Lewis Central girls ended a 10-0 victory early in the second half on the mercy rule.

Creston’s boys countered with a 5-0 lead in the first half with the wind at their backs, and outscored the Titans 1-0 in the second half to improve to 9-1 for the season and 3-1 in Hawkeye 10 play. That al-ready matches the win total from last year’s 9-7 campaign.

Lewis Central boys fell to 2-8 overall and 1-3 in the league.

Creston ju-nior Conner Pals scored three goals Tuesday, lifting his season total to 17 — six short of his brother Seth’s school season re-cord of 23. Ben Irr added two assists and a goal.

Irr scored the first one and then Levi Eblen bent a corner kick behind the goal-keeper to make it 2-0. Pals was fouled in the box and converted a

penalty kick to make it 3-0.The fourth goal came off an Eblen

throw-in that skipped through and touched by Ryan Helm past the goalie for a 4-0 advantage. Pals scored again to send the halftime bulge to 5-0.

Coach Jesus Rodriguez made a strategic change with his team fac-ing the wind in the second half.

“We changed our formation to keep the shutout,” he said. “We put Trevor Frain in front of our center back, as a defensive center mid, to contain number nine, their really good player (senior Tony Rew). Trevor was able to do that. He (Rew) got off one missile shot a couple steps inside the 18, but Alex Nielsen had cat reflexes and made a dive to block the shot. Alex has good reach and great reflexes to move quickly.”

Creston’s only goal of the sec-ond half came when Irr had a free kick outside of the box, The keeper blocked it, but the ball was loose and Pals knocked it in for his third goal of the night to make it 6-0.

Glenwood, in a tie for the ninth-place ranking in Class 2A, recently beat Lewis Central by a similar score (9-0). The Rams are 6-2 over-all and 4-0 atop the conference, and host the Panthers Thursday.

Creston, ranked 16th in Class 2A last week, could effectively take a hold on first place in the Hawkeye 10 by handing the Rams their first loss, and owning the head-to-head advantage.

“I can’t wait for Thursday,” Ro-driguez said. “We know they are a great team. But we are playing well. Tonight we were generating quick passes and playing in space to score. We got adjusted to the turf field during warm-ups. Our defense is playing strong.”

With four players gone at State FFA activities Tuesday, the Pan-thers were helped by JV members Caleb Cramer, Connor Kinkade, Helm and Isaac Wignall.

The Panthers are off to the best start since the 2010 team led by all-time leading scorer Seth Pals and all-state midfielder Kevin Irr that reached a No. 7 state rating at 8-1 after wins over ranked Denison-Schleswig, Glenwood and ADM. That team finished 10-5 and lost in the substate finals.Girls match

In the girls match, freshman Kelsey McSorley scored five goals for Lewis Central and senior Haley Cleaver added two.

The Class 2A sixth-ranked Ti-tans (7-1) had 27 total shots and 17 on goal. Creston’s only shot was by Shelby Palser. Sadie Jones had 13 saves in sharing duties in the net with Becca Ross.

Lewis Central built a 6-0 halftime lead and scored a flurry of goals early in the second half to end the match on the mercy rule at the 32:10 mark of the second half.

“That’s probably the best team we’ve faced so far, although St. Al-bert was just as capable,” Creston

coach Kim Lauffer said. “They just played different styles against us.”

Lauffer said the fast field turf sur-face created a quicker game and ex-posed some of her team’s shortcom-ings. Conditions were slick in the rain-soaked environment, creating some problems for the goalkeepers in handling the ball.

The Panther girls (0-6 overall, 0-5 conference) are home Friday against Oakland Riverside, with varsity playing first.

“They had crisp and clean passes, and the pace of the game was faster than what we were used to,” said Lauffer, who was missing starter Sa-vannah Hartman at State FFA func-tions.

The Numbers Game

Life banNEW YORK — NBA

Commissioner Adam Silver banned Clippers owner Donald Sterling from the NBA on Tues-day.

The ban comes af-ter audio surfaced this weekend where Sterling is heard making racial remarks towards minor-ities and players.

“Effective immedi-ately, I’m a banning Mr. Sterling for life from any association with the Clippers organization or the NBA,” Silver said.

“Mr. Sterling may not attend any NBA games or practices,” Silver con-tinued. “He may not be present at any Clippers facility and he may not participate in any busi-ness or player personnel decisions involving the team.”

Sterling was also fined $2.5 million — the maxi-mum amount under the NBA constitution. He will also be forced to sell his stake in the Clippers organization.Clippers win

LOS ANGELES — The Los Angeles Clip-pers beat the Golden State Warriors 113-103 to win Game 5 of the first round of the NBA Western Conference playoffs.

DeAndre Jordan led the Clippers with 25 points, 18 rebounds and four blocks. Chris Paul added 20 points.

The Clippers lead the series 3 games to 2. Game 6 is on Thursday.Bulls eliminated

CHICAGO — John Wall finished with 24 points, Nene scored 20, and the Washington Wizards beat the Chica-go Bulls 75-69 on Tues-day night to clinch their first-round series in five games.

Bradley Beal scored 17 points, and the fifth-seeded Wizards ad-vanced in the postseason for just the third time since the 1970s. They will meet Indiana or Atlanta in the Eastern Conference semifinals.

The franchise hadn’t been to the postseason since 2008, but with Wall and Beal leading the way, they won 44 games during the regular sea-son.Grizzlies win

OKLAHOMA CITY — Mike Miller scored 21 points and the Memphis Grizzlies held off the Oklahoma City Thun-der 100-99 in a record fourth straight overtime game Tuesday night to take a 3-2 lead in the first-round series.

Oklahoma City re-bounded a missed 3-point attempt by Mill-er and called a timeout, trailing 100-99 with 2.9 seconds remaining. Kev-in Durant of the Thun-der missed a long 3-point attempt and teammate Serge Ibaka tipped the ball in on the rebound. The shot was reviewed and it was determined that it was released after the buzzer, ending the game. Zach Randolph added 20 points and 10 rebounds.

Twins’ Eddie Rosario dealing with his poor decision By LA VELLE E. NEAL IIIStar Tribune

FORT MYERS, Fla. — Eddie Rosario leaned against a fence in front of a dugout last week as other Twins mi-nor leaguers went through fielding drills at the Lee County Sports Complex.

He still is rehabilitating a sore elbow. Even if he was 100 percent healthy, though, the highly touted infield pros-pect still would be at Fort My-ers, working out on the back fields. Rosario is idle, paying the price because, he said, “I made a mistake.”

Rosario is in the middle of a 50-game suspension for violat-ing base-ball’s drug policy. He confirmed in a con-versation with the Star Tri-bune late last week that he smoked marijuana during the Arizona Fall League and failed a drug test soon after that. The momentum he had built as he moved up the mi-nor league ladder has skidded to a halt.

“It’s tough,” he said. “I miss baseball bad.”

He won’t be able to join Class AA New Britain until the last week in May — rain-outs keep pushing his re-turn date back. Rosario, 22, was ranked as the sixth-best prospect in the organization by Baseball America and is one of the better-hitting prospects in the minors. He is considered a good contact hitter with the potential to hit for some power — he had 21 homers at rookie league Elizabethton in 2011. He bat-

ted .307 with a .358 on base percentage and .867 on base-plus-slugging percentage in four minor league seasons.

What he is missing out on is at-bats to further his develop-ment and move him closer to his major league debut.

Rosario said he is dealing with his poor decision. As soon as the Twins learned of the results, he was entered into the club’s employee as-sistance program, which pro-vides the necessary counsel-ing and other support to help players and staff who run into problems like Rosario’s.

“We will move past the suspension and get him ready to play so when he is eligible he will be ready to go,” said Rob Antony, Twins assistant general manager. “We don’t expect the elbow to be an is-sue and should be fine by the time he is ready to play in real games.”

Rosario, a fourth-round pick in the 2010 draft, bat-ted .238 in the Arizona Fall League and .173 in the Puerto Rican winter league. Part of his struggles, he said, was knowing that he tested positive, with a suspension to come. He didn’t report to spring camp until April 12 — more than three weeks after minor leaguers reported — so he could deal with a personal matter at his home of Guay-anna, Puerto Rico.

“It was a mistake,” Rosario said, “but it’s in the past.”

New Britain is 6-16 and in sixth place in the Eastern League’s Eastern Division. Rosario was scheduled to open the year with the Rock Cats after batting .284 with four homers and 38 RBI in 70 games there in 2013 following a midseason promotion from Class A Fort Myers. Not only that, but top prospects By-ron Buxton and Miguel Sano

were also headed to New Britain in what would have been a lineup gushing with top-end potential. But the team has been snakebit.

Buxton, a consensus pick as the top prospect in base-ball, hasn’t played an inning because of a strained left wrist and is just beginning his return. Sano, considered one of the top power hitting prospects in the minors, is out for the season because of Tommy John elbow liga-ment replacement surgery.

The Twins’ plan to group these top prospects togeth-er will not materialize this season.

“We were certainly opti-mistic about it and certainly looking forward to those guys playing together,” said Brad Steil, the Twins direc-tor of minor league opera-tions. “We thought it would be a good idea for all those guys to get a chance to play together, which they didn’t get to last year.”

It’s another example of what can happen — and po-tentially ruin — the path to the majors. Rosario knows that now as he waits for his season to start. He said his family — parents Eddie Sr. and Maria, and his wife, Milany — have helped him through a difficult time in his life.

“My family keeps telling me that the most important thing for me is my family and my work,” said Rosa-rio, who has two daughters: Mileiddy, 4, and Raydiel-iz, 2. “And every day the Twins help me. I’m play-ing for my future. I’m good right now.”

The Greater Regional Diabetes Education pro-gram has been awarded continued recognition from the American Dia-betes Association (ADA). The prestigious award rec-ognizes quality diabetes self-management educa-tion programs. The ADA believes the Greater Re-gional Diabetes Education program offers high-quality education that is an essen-tial component of effective diabetes treatment.

The ADA Education Recognition Certification assures that educational programs meet the Nation-al Standards for Diabetes Self-Management Educa-tion Programs. Programs apply for recognition vol-untarily. Programs that achieve recognition status have a staff of knowledge-able health professionals who can provide partici-pants with comprehensive information about diabetes management.

According to the Ameri-can Diabetes Association, there are 25.8 million peo-ple or 8.5 percent of the population in the United States who have diabetes. While an estimated 18.8 million have been diag-nosed, 7.0 million people are not aware they have the disease. Each day, approxi-mately 5,205 people are diagnosed with diabetes. Many will first learn they have they disease when they are treated for one of its life-threatening com-

plications – heart disease and stroke, kidney disease, blindness and nerve disease and amputation.

Assuring high-quality education for patient self-care is one of the primary goals of the education rec-ognition program. Through the support of the health care team and increased knowledge and awareness of diabetes, the patient can assume a major part of the responsibility for his/her diabetes management. Un-necessary hospital admis-sions and some of the acute and chronic complications of diabetes may be prevent-ed through self-manage-ment education.

For more information, contact the Greater Re-gional Diabetes Education program at 641-782-3845 or visit GreaterRegional.org.
