Federal and state candidates set for general election

By Ty Rushing Daily News Senior Staff Writer

and Mike Mendenhall Daily News Staff Writer

When Sen. Tom Harkin (D-Iowa) an-nounced he wouldn’t seek re-election for his seat in the U.S. Senate, a number of candidates took advantage of the opportu-nity and threw their hats in the ring. After Tuesday’s primary election, only two re-mained.

Rep. Bruce Braley (D-Iowa) secured the Democratic nomination for Senate, receiving 530 out of 536 votes in Jasper County.

“As someone who grew up in a work-ing family in Brooklyn, Iowa, worked my way through college and law school here in Iowa, and spent my life representing people from all across our state, I’m deeply honored to win the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate tonight,” Braley said in a release.

“I look forward to bringing my campaign to all corners of Iowa in the next five months to discuss my vision to improve the lives of working families and expand opportunities for all Iowans. No matter who my oppo-nent is, I look forward to a rigorous debate about who can rise above the partisanship of Washington politics and fight for Iowa’s working families who need a strong voice in Washington.”

Joni Ernst was the winner of the crowd-ed Republican field for Senate and received 1,084 out 1,890 votes in Jasper County. She beat out Sam Clovis, 428 votes; Mark Jacobs, 206 votes; Scott Schaber, 15; and Matt Whitaker, 157 votes.

“Thank you Iowa! I am humbled and honored to accept the Republican nomina-tion for United States Senate,” Ernst wrote on her Facebook page. “Now it’s time to beat President Obama’s choice, Bruce Bral-ey, and get this seat back into our hands. The hard work begins now — let’s send Braley home!”

Incumbent U.S. Representative for Con-gressional District 2 Dave Loebsack (D-Io-wa) ran opposed in the Democratic Primary and received 537 out of 540 votes in Jasper County.

“This election is about the hardwork-ing men and women of Iowa. This election will be about protecting and expanding the middle class — the folks who work hard but are still struggling to get by,” Loebsack said in a release. “Having grown up in poverty, I know what it is like to sit around the kitch-en table and make hard choices,”

“That is what this election will be about. Do we want to move forward by increas-ing the minimum wage, securing social se-curity and Medicare and keeping jobs here at home?” Loebsack continued. “Or do we want the extreme wing of the Republican Party to move us backward. There is a clear choice and I look forward to laying out these differences as we head into Novem-ber.”

Loebsack will face Dr. Mariannette Miller-Meeks, who beat out Mark Lofgren and Matthew Waldren for the Republi-can nomination. She received 590 votes in Jasper County, while Lofgren carried the county with 644 votes and Waldren had 357 of 1,594 Republican ballots cast in Jasper County.

Reasnor mayor reasons with county supervisors on back taxes

By Ty Rushing Daily News Senior Staff Writer

Because of the pre-vious administration’s missteps, current Reas-nor mayor Cliff Vos doesn’t believe his city should have to pay its back taxes to Jasper County on two of the three parcels of land the city is behind on.

“There’s a new mayor and new council now, and we don’t feel that we should have to pay for these,” Vos told the Jasper County Board of Supervisors at Tuesday’s meeting.

Reasnor is currently behind on its county taxes for three parcels of land, which amounts to $1,498. Vos said one of the parcels should be exempt from the back taxes due to the property being under restrictions from the Federal Emer-gency Management Agency after flooding in the past.

Vos also felt the city should be exempt from paying the taxes on the other two and he said the taxes should’ve been abated when Reasnor took possession of those parcels. He added that

the city had acquired these properties very re-cently, and he didn’t find out about the back taxes until two weeks ago.

Jasper County Asses-sor John Deegan agreed with Vos about Reas-nor’s FEMA property but disagreed with Vos’ assessment of the other two properties.

“These are 2012 taxes that we are talk-ing about,” Deegan said. “These (properties) were owned by the bank in 2012. They are liable

candidates set for county electionsBy Ty Rushing

Daily News Senior Staff Writer

After initially having four candidates, unofficial results indicate the race for the two open seats on the Jasper County Board of Supervisors has come down to three names — Joe Brock, Dennis Carpenter and Jeremy Heaberlin.

Carpenter, Heaberlin and Jason Web-ster all ran in the Republican Primary and Carpenter received more than 50 percent of the votes cast. He wound up 1,257 of the 2,506 votes cast. Heaberlin secured his position in the general election with 805 votes and Webster had 435 votes, which

was just four short of the amount needed to make the general election ballot.

Both Carpenter and Heaberlin were ec-static in interviews after results came in.

“I give God the praise and glory for it, and it was him that did it,” Carpenter said. “I feel blessed that Jasper County has the confidence in me to represent them as their County Supervisor. I would also like to congratulate Denny Carpenter,” Heaberlin said. “There is a lot of work ahead, and I want people to know that this is my passion. I want to be a voice for all of Jasper County. There is so much more that can be done.”

Brock is currently serving as the chair for the Jasper County of Board of Super-

visors and ran opposed in the Democratic Primary. He received 95.6 percent of the vote and had 545 out of 570 votes.

“I look forward to the fall election and certainly intend to work hard to be reelect-ed,” Brock said.

In the race to replace retiring incum-bent Jasper County Recorder Nancy Par-rott, Democrat Denise Allan secured her party’s nomination as did Republican Marshall Critchfield. Allan had 99.64 of the Democratic vote and received 559 of the 564 votes cast.

Newton Village opens new health care center

By Zach Johnson Daily News Staff Writer

The staff of Newton Village and their corporate office Elim Care cele-brated the grand opening of the New-ton Village Health Care Center with the official ribbon-cutting ceremony Tuesday done by the Greater Newton Area Chamber of Commerce ambas-sador team.

“The journey goes back to about three years ago, when we started work-ing with the state of Iowa to license the approval to build the center,” Elim Care Chief Executive Officer Bob Dahl said. “It was a significant pro-cess that took us a year to go through, which was followed by a year of plan-ning and ended with a year of con-struction.”

Executive Director and Adminis-trator Brenda Colvin joined the New-ton Village team in November.

“I was here for the second half of the construction and now for the grand opening. It has actually been

fantastic,” Colvin said. “The construc-tion crew, architects and everyone has been great. I was really blessed and fortunate to walk into a project that was going really well. For me, I was really lucky.”

The new addition will offer the current and future residents of New-ton Village the opportunity to have all their care under one roof.

“We’re so excited to be able to of-fer four levels of care,” Colvin said. “I look at what I would want as a senior, which I am a couple years away from, and this is where I would want to live. (We are) able to offer this and love on our residents from the day that they move in to the day they potentially pass away.”

Dahl complemented Colvin’s re-sponse representing Elim Care.

“I think this meets all of our expec-tations this represents the standard that we were trying to achieve in all of our locations,” Dahl said. “We are very pleased with the building that we have.”

Let’s be honest here — you need a jolt.Yes, you manage to show up at the job every

morning, and, sure, you’re able to spend most of the day in a semi-vertical position, and OK, you’re really good at looking like you’re actu-ally working, but we know the truth, don’t we? You’re going through the motions. You’re cruising on empty. You’ve checked out.

Like I say — you need a jolt.

Now I am not talking about a jolt — or even a jot — of motivation. No new-age guru spouting self-realization claptrap is going to get you going. When I say jolt, I mean jolt. As in electricity. As in actual amperes of elec-trical current coursing through your brain.

Yes, I’m talking about transcranial direct current stimulation, or as we like to call it in brain-hacking circles, tDCS.

Since you are currently operating without current, I should explain that tDCS is a hot topic for people interested in improving men-tal performance without the use of surgery, drugs or vodka. According to Amy Standen, whose story on tDCS, “Hacking The Brain With Electricity: Don’t Try This At Home,” recently appeared on NPR’s “Morning Edi-tion,” just slightly electrocuting your brain is “the latest craze for people who want to im-prove their mental performance: zapping the brain with electricity to make it sharper and more focused.”

Does it work? According to Standen, when the Air Force performed a performance test on pilots, “those who received tDCS performed 25 percent better on training tests than those who received no brain stimulation.”

With results like this, who wouldn’t want to stick their toe in an electric socket and jump-start their cranium?

This may all sound crazy, but it shouldn’t sound new. Electroshock therapy has been around since Roman days when electric tor-pedo fish were placed on a patient’s scalp as a cure for headaches. Today, deep-brain stimu-lation from surgically implanted electrodes is regularly used for the treatment of epilepsy and Parkinson’s.

What’s different about tDCS is that shock-ing the brain is no longer the sole property of fancy-schmancy neurosurgeons. It’s a do-it-yourself world, friend, and now, average folks, like thee and me, are frying our brains on our own, and we’re loving it!

If you’re wondering whom to thank for this shocking development, you can direct your gratitude toward the world’s nerds and gamers.

Their need to maximize their minimal men-tal capacity has lead to devices like the $249 Foc.us headset, a “Star Wars”-grade apparatus that “passes a small electric current (<2.05mA) through the prefrontal cortex of the wearer.”

(Lest you have any silly safety concerns, let me — and the Foc.us website — assure you that “the headset has been tested to all required regulatory standards including CE Safety stan-dard EN60601-2-10: 2001 and EN60601-1: 2006.” And now that your childish qualms have been completely quashed, here’s the im-portant news. It’s available in two colors: black and red.)

Even without the aid of electric stimulation, I think you can see where I’m going with this. If Air Force pilots, brain-hacking nerds and brain-dead gamers are using tDCS to improve their performance, how long do you think it will be before your managers start wiring your workstation to zap you into high-achievement mode all through the workday?

And why should they not? They already have you wired up for a computer and a tele-phone. Is it that big a stretch to imagine a geek from the IT department knocking on your cubicle wall for permission to turn your office chair into an electric chair?

Not every employee will embrace this op-portunity, of course, but if you hesitate to turn yourself into a brain-crash dummy, you do risk being considered one of those marginal em-ployees who lacks company spirit. (Certainly, it won’t be your supervisors who get themselves wired up. Before you can improve brain per-formance, you have to a brain to begin with.)

I say, go with the flow of electricity. In fact, get ahead of the trend. If you can’t afford a $249 Foc.us headset, you can create a reason-able facsimile by wearing an aluminum foil helmet with a big, thick power cord attached to five or six car batteries stacked up on your desk.

Whether this is safe or not, I have no idea, but it is likely to keep management far away from you, which should allow you to actually get some work done. And if you ask me, that’s the way to improve performance.

Box 967, Newton, IA 50208, or to [email protected] via email.Opinions expressed in letters and columns are those of the writers and

do not represent the views of the Newton Daily News.

According to the National Institute of Mental Health, 74 percent of people suffer from “speech anxiety” i.e. the fear of public speaking. My big question is “why?”

I’ve al-ways found it funny that more people fear pub-lic speaking than they do death, I mean think about how preposterous that is. Peo-ple literally fear messing up their words and talking to a crowd more than they do the Grim Reaper.

Death is permanent, flubbing a word or two is not, and you can easily backtrack or even turn the moment into a joke on the fly. With death, there is no coming back and there is no “funny haha moment,” you are done for.

The reason this topic has run across my mind is because of the amount of public speaking I’m doing and will continue to do here in Newton. Just last week I got to give a presentation to Aktion Club at Progress Indus-tries, the week before I spoke at the Special Olympics Torch Run and in recent weeks I’ve held im-promptu Q&A session in class-rooms across Newton while cov-ering school events.

Personally, I love public speaking and revel in every op-portunity to do so that I’m given. It’s fun, it’s exhilarating and it’s your chance to inform and cap-tivate an audience on a topic of your choosing.

How can you not love that?I guess it’s different for me; I

caught the public speaking bug at an early age. It all started when my family realized that I wasn’t exactly a shy kid. So, whenever we had some sort of family event where an MC was needed, there I was ready to step up and present.

This soon spread to church, where as a child, I would read speeches, participate in plays and I have even lead a few dis-cussions in youth Sunday school. However, church and family functions didn’t prove enough to help quench my thirst for engag-ing with an audience and I soon began doing it at school as well.

My shortly lived political ca-reer may have been my first time speaking at one of my schools — all my relatives who can verify an earlier moment I may have for-

gotten have passed away. In the fourth-grade, I decided to run for vice-president of the student council for Melcher Elementary School.

I had big ambitions, but I was being wise about the situ-ation. As a fourth grader, in a school that was only fourth and fifth graders, I knew running for president of student council was a long shot, but VP seemed like a safe bet.

My best friend at the time, Marvin Childs, and I put up posters all over the school and I made plenty of campaign ap-pearances on the playground, in the lunchroom and the school library, sorry librarians, but you couldn’t “shhhh” my message.

Finally, the big election hap-pened and I gave one of my most powerful speeches, that I wrote unassisted I might add, to the entire student body and I re-ceived a standing ovation. Not to toot my own horn, but I was a pretty good writer in the fourth-grade and I have the certificates to prove it.

This speech was right up there with some of the best that my then political idols — Emanuel Cleaver, current Congressman and the first black mayor of Kan-sas City, Mo., and Bob Dole, leg-endary former U.S. Senator from Kansas — had given, according to my nine-year-old logic.

I presented facts, I had charis-ma, I made eye contact and most of all I showed the people that

“I” was the best candidate for the job of getting the Melcher stu-dent council back inline. (If you can’t tell, I was a pretty serious kid at times.)

I lost, pretty badly to a cute and popular fifth-grade girl named Ivy. They announced the results over the intercom and upon hearing I didn’t win, I cried right there at my desk in the middle of class.

Politics is hard stuff people.Despite not winning the

election — and giving the best speech of all time according to my fourth-grade classmate Jus-tin Tatum — I didn’t let that negative moment deter me from continuing to be a public speak-er.

I delivered the “I Have a Dream Speech” to the entire school in both fifth and eighth grade, I participated in speech and debate in high school and I’ve even delivered eulogies or read condolences at funerals. Here in Newton, I’ve spoken to schools, classrooms, clubs and organizations and I’m always open to speaking if my schedule permits.

So don’t be afraid to give pub-lic speaking a shot. It’s nowhere near as bad as death or worse — crying in front of your entire classroom.

for the taxes, and now, if the attorney’s didn’t collect tax money when they gave the property to the city, that’s not our fault.

“I think the attorneys are to be liable. I’m not pointing fingers, but I do believe there’s some attorney involvement here. Why would the city accept some prop-erty that’s not clean? … I don’t understand how the city could ac-cept something without a clear title. It’s got to be clean, (and) taxes are number one.”

As the board was deliberating over state-ments that Vos and Deegan had given, Jas-per County Treasurer Doug Bishop — whose office sent out all three the delinquency notices — commented on the matter. Like Deegan,

Bishop cautioned the board against taking ac-tions against the FEMA connected property, but he felt the taxes for the other two properties should be paid.

“With the other two, we have 100 cases just like that. Somehow, the taxes didn’t get paid, and I would caution the board that if you abate these taxes, you will have a line of people standing up here say-ing, ‘I was caught in the same situation.’”

In the end, the board decided to table the matter until next week so that they could con-sult with other county officials on the matter.

Jasper County IT Director Celia Robert-son’s plan to virtualize all of the county offices’ servers is coming closer to fruition.

The Jasper County Attorney’s Office and Secondary Roads De-partment, respectively,

were approved to re-ceive “virtualization.” Virtualization allows companies to utilize fewer resources, such as servers and storage devices, but still be able to manage its networks and back up its data in an efficient manner.

Urbandale-based IP Pathways was chosen to provide the service at a cost of $24,602.24. IP previously won the bid to virtualize the Jasper County Sheriff ’s Office in April.

In other business:• The board approved

the termination of lim-ited land use easement agreement for Elosie Sward of Sully. Jasper County Planning Zon-ing Administrator Lar-ry Ryan said by ending the easement, this puts the property back in line with the county or-dinance.

• An updated 28E agreement between the county and the Central

Iowa Community Ser-vices Region was pre-sented and approved by the board.

• CICSR provides mental health services to Jasper County and other members include Boone, Franklin, Ham-ilton, Hardin, Madison, Marshall, Poweshiek, Story and Warren counties.

• The Young Pro-fessionals of Jasper County were granted permission to use the courthouse lawn for “Thanks with Franks” on Sept. 4.

• Dennis Hammer Jr., Mike Herbold and Cory Wade were all granted fireworks per-mits. The permit dates range between July 1 and 8.

family is welcoming these girls into their house. At some point, the girls might go back home, but they maintain the relationships they made with the family.”

The issue of sexism also is addressed.

“The issue is recognizing

sexism as we see it in our daily living and saying some-thing about it,” Petersen said. “The idea of sexism is something that is woven into our daily lives. Most people would say that’s just the way things are when it’s truly sex-ist.”

The morning circle group is able to have the experience of having women come to-gether and talk about some of

their experiences and where things were when they were growing up or when their mothers were growing up.

“The exchange student from Sierra Leon came and shared of her experienc-es with our group and the young woman from Afghani-stan shared as well,” Petersen said. “A lot of what’s going on just involves opening up your eyes for a little bit more

to become aware and being able to seek and discern what differences can you make right here in Newton and in Jasper County.”

For Petersen, being able to have these experiences with not just her congregation but the community is exciting for her.

“I’m excited because it’s what were called to do, to share the gospel while car-

ing for all of God’s people, which is working to build the realm of God in this place and time,” Petersen said. “I can’t ask for anything more than that, but it’s what we’re called to do because why else would we come togeth-er to be this community? It makes me feel that I am do-ing something right and that I am a part of something that matters.”

“We all know Washington is a mess and the middle class is being squeezed. Iowans deserve better health care re-forms, increased take-home pay, and a government that is accountable,” Miller-Meeks wrote on Facebook. “Yester-day was the first step on our long journey of sending a doctor, veteran and problem-solver to fix the dysfunction in Washington.”

In the state election, Gov. Terry Branstad defeated his Republican challenger Tom Hoefling. Branstad had 1,490 votes of the 1,844 cast in Jas-per County, while Hoefling had 350.

“Iowa Republicans de-cided today that they want to see continued job growth, business investment, higher incomes, better schools and lower taxes,” Branstad said.

“We are thankful to the voters who supported us today and to the thousands of volunteers across the 99 counties who made this victory possible.

“Now we will continue to work hard through the No-vember election to help Re-publicans all the way down the ticket. We look forward to having all of our Republican candidates and their support-ers come together and unite for the final five months of the 2014 campaign.”

Branstad will face Demo-crat Jack Hatch, who secured his party’s nomination and had 522 of 527 votes in Jasper County.

“Thank you Iowa! Now it’s time to get ready for the road ahead,” Hatch wrote on his Facebook page.

With 35 of 36 precincts reporting, Crystal Bruntz of Baxter won the Republican primary for Iowa Senate Dis-trict 15 with 67.9 percent of the vote over Mitchellville

Mayor Jeremy Filbert. Jasper and Polk County voters cast 1,771 votes for Bruntz to Fil-bert’s 833. After the results came in, Bruntz said she was happy with the support given to her campaign.

“I want to thank my friends and family for making calls and doing door knock-ing. That was a great help,” Bruntz said. “It was fun to meet all the people.”

Bruntz general election opponent will be Chaz Al-len who ran unopposed in the Democratic Primary. Allen won with 98 percent of the vote and received 696 of 710 ballots cast with results from all 36 precincts.

“First, I want to thank my supporters. I appreciate the support,” Allen said in a state-ment. “Next, I want to con-gratulate Crystal on her win in her primary. I look forward to the months ahead and get-ting out and meeting every-one in the district and hearing

what’s important to them.”In the race for Iowa State

Representative for District 29, incumbent Democrat Dan Kelley received 98.9 percent of the vote and 469 out of 474 for votes for the 18 precincts that reported.

Kelley will face Patrick Payton who ran unopposed in the Republican Primary and received 99.6 percent of the votes from the 18 reported precincts. In total, he received 1,093 of the 1,097 ballots cast.

Both Megan Suhr (D-Knoxville) and incumbent Greg Heartsill (R-Chariton) ran uncontested in bids for their parties’ nominations in for Iowa State Representa-tive for District 28. Suhr had 100 percent of the votes out of 236 votes ballots cast in the district.

“I hope to run a really strong campaign,” Suhr said. “The support has been fan-tastic.”

Heartsill released a com-ment on his website and had 99.7 percent of the vote and locked up 1,483 of the 1,488 ballots cast in the district.

“I appreciate those that took the time to vote in the Primary Election and I’m honored by all the support across House District 28,” Heartsill said.

Other match-ups include:• Republican Paul Pate fac-

ing Democrat Brad Anderson for Iowa Secretary of State.

• Democrat Jonathan Nei-derbach will face Republican Mary Mosiman in the race for Iowa Auditor of State.

• For Iowa Treasurer of State, Democrat Michael Fitzgerald is currently run-ning unopposed.

• Republican Bill Northey will be challenged by Demo-crat Sherrie Taha for Iowa Secretary of Agriculture.

• Democrat Tom Miller is running unopposed for Iowa Attorney General.

“I’m just very pleased with the re-sponse and all fired up to go here for this fall,” Allan said. “I want to thank everyone who went to the polls and voted for me, and I appreciate it very

much.”Critchfield had 99.15 percent of

the Republican vote and received 1,290 of 1,301 ballots cast.

“I would like to sincerely thank the 1,290 Jasper County residents who voted for me yesterday,” Critch-field said. “I’m excited to spend the next five months connecting with

the remainder of the population and explaining why my brand of leader-ship is the best option for the future of Jasper County.”

Incumbent Jasper County Trea-surer Doug Bishop and incumbent Jasper County Attorney Mike Ja-cobsen both ran opposed and se-cured the Democratic nominations.

Bishop had 99.11 percent of the vote and received 559 of 564 ballots cast. Jacobsen had 99.25 percent of the vote and received 530 of 534 ballots cast.

DEAR ABBY: More and more of my friends are trying to work and take care of parents who have Alzheimer’s disease. One of my closest friends’ husbands was recently diagnosed with it. He is only 62. I thought Al-zheimer’s was only memory loss, but it seems like so much more. His per-sonality has changed. She tells me he gets angry with her when she tries to help him.

What exactly is Alzheimer’s, and what can be done to stop it? — UN-SURE IN OAK PARK, ILLINOIS

DEAR UNSURE: I’m sorry to say — from personal experience — that Alzheimer’s disease, while often thought of as “minor memory loss,” is a disease that is ultimately fatal. Its cause is not yet understood. I lost my mother to it. Alzheimer’s kills nerve cells and tissue in the brain, causing it to shrink dramatically. It affects a person’s ability to communicate, to think and, eventually, to breathe. At least 44 million people worldwide are now living with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias. As our popula-tions age, those numbers will swell to 76 million by 2030.

Currently there is no way to pre-vent, stop or even to slow the pro-gression of Alzheimer’s disease. Some drugs manage the symptoms, but only temporarily. This is why more funding for Alzheimer’s and more support for the families who are caring for loved ones who have it are so urgently needed. Please sug-gest to your friend that she contact the Alzheimer’s Association for help because it offers support groups for spouses.

Readers, June is Alzheimer’s and Brain Awareness Month. If you are concerned about Alzheimer’s disease — and we all should be — you can

get involved by joining the global fight against this very nasty disease. To learn more, visit alz.org/abam.

DEAR ABBY: I’m currently dat-ing a man who is 10 years older than I am. I’m 24; he’s 34. We have known each other for two years and we live together. He has two beautiful daughters I adore.

His older daughter, “Pearl” (age 12), called me “Mom” the other night, and then asked me if it was OK. I’m not their mother, and I would never try to take that role away from my boyfriend’s ex, but this puts me in an awkward situation. As much as I love his girls, I don’t want to cause drama or have Pearl get in trouble with her mother. — SHE CALLED ME MOM

DEAR CALLED ME MOM: Talk to Pearl. Tell her you were touched knowing she feels that way about you and deeply flattered when she called you “Mom,” but you feel if her mother knew about it that she would be hurt. (This is especially true if the girls live with their mother.) Then ask Pearl to come up with an-other affectionate name for you, or suggest one to her.

Church, community embrace the issue of oppressed women

The Congregational United Church of Christ will be finishing up its year of adult educational programing with a viewing of the second half of the documentary “Half the Sky,” is which based on the book “Half the Sky” written by Sheryl WuDunn and Nicholas D. Kristoff. Participants watched the first half of the documentary last month.

“Our women’s group has been reading and studying the book,” Congregational United Church of Christ Pastor Rev. Jessica Pe-tersen said. “We will often show movies that are kind of topical that we think are on important topics that people in the com-munity and, of course, people in the church should be more aware of and hopefully get actively in-volved with in their own lives.”

The documentary “Half the Sky” is about the oppression and empowerment of women world-wide.

“The documentary film is done in two parts as it was done for public television with each half being two hours long and bro-ken into three segments each,” Petersen said. “In the first part of the documentary talks about vio-lence against women focusing on rape in Sierra Leon, sex traffick-ing in Cambodia and education of women in Thailand.”

During the documentary, one of the authors of the book, Krist-off, who is a reporter for the New York Times, goes with famous actresses to these various loca-tions because they feel it would help raise awareness of these is-sues.

“During the documentary Kristoff said, ‘No one knows who I am, but people know who Meg Ryan and Gabrielle Union are, so it brings a little more of a spot-light on these issues.’” Petersen said.

“The second half of the docu-mentary will cover issues in India involving intergenerational pros-

titution,” Petersen said. “The film crews go to Samiland they look at the rise in the motherhood mor-tality rates, and on Kenya they look at the economic empower-ment.”

In between each of the sec-tions, celebrities and politicians who are active in national and in-ternational programs are working for women’s rights. The active ce-lebrities and politicians are both men and women.

“George Clooney starts off the documentary by saying ‘We have got to use our name for some-thing good to shine a light on the issues,’” Petersen said.

The documentary covers many harsh realities of some of these situations but gives viewers a ray of hope, showing people are working to better things.

“These wonderful women, who are working in their com-munities to advocate for them-selves and other women of all ages,” Petersen said. “‘Half the Sky’ says that there’s these re-ally big global issues. They go to Asia and Africa, but these are not problems that are just happening just in Asia and Africa. These are global problems.”

“They’re things we can do about them right here in the U.S to uplift women,” Petersen con-tinues. “It’s not about putting men down, but it’s about respect-ing and valuing women, which

is why the documentary is called ‘Half the Sky’ because a Chinese Proverb says that women hold up half the sky.”

Even before the release of the documentary, many families and women who are becoming active and hoping to empower women right here in Newton and Jasper County.

“There’s a woman in Jas-per County who is a part of the church here that her and her hus-band have been supporting girls from different countries all over the world,” Petersen said.

The family has hosted eight different exchange students.

“Their most recent exchange student is from Sierra Leon,” Pe-tersen said. “They will also help support a young woman from Af-ghanistan while she furthers her education.”

They’re taking these girls into their home, welcoming them into their families, and this fam-ily connects with the girl’s family back in their native country.

“The young women accept them as their family by forming these bonds and get the educa-tion that they might not be able to in their native country,” Pe-tersen said. “Although things are better in different areas, this

First Presbyterian welcomes new pastor

The First P r e s b y t e r i a n Church of New-ton is pleased to announce the call of Rev. Meghan Davis, who began her ministry at the church on June 1.

Davis was born and raised in Taos, N.M.

She graduated from the College of Wooster in Ohio and has a master of arts in theater his-tory and criticism from Ohio University. Da-vis left her career in theater to answer God’s call to ministry.

Having earned her master of divinity from San Francisco Theological Seminary, Da-vis’ first call was to Longview Presbyterian Church in Washington State. She is excited to be coming to serve First Presbyterian Church and the greater Newton community.

Davis is a certified yoga instructor with a passion for incorporating yoga into Christian spiritual practice. In addition to continuing First Presbyterian’s current mission, worship, music and education programs, she looks for-ward to teaching yoga at First Presbyterian. Davis enjoys reading, film, knitting (poorly), and running (slowly) and is looking forward to getting to know Newton and Iowa.

First Presbyterian Church encourages members of the community to come and meet Davis.

Jocelyn Sheets/Daily NewsAll smiles — Newton’s girls won the third-place trophy at the 2014 Iowa Class 4A State Girls’ Golf Tournament Tuesday in Ames. Members of the team are (left to right), head coach Scott Enyart, Cydney Hillyard, Madigan Hillyard, Shelbey Cochran, Madeline Wellik, Jessica Reynolds, who earned the eighth-place individual medal, Carrie Cun-ningham and assistant coach Alison Grier.

Cardinals capture third at 4A state golf tournament

AMES — “Just another round of golf.”

That was the mindset of Newton’s six golfers as they set foot on the Ames Golf and Country Club course Tues-day morning for the second round of the 2014 Iowa Class 4A State Golf Tournament. It worked for the Car-dinals.

“I told the girls on the way to the golf course that we were in a good position heading into today’s round,” said Newton head coach Scott Enyart. “They were more relaxed and confi dent playing today. Each one went out and did what they needed to do to push us up to third. I’m super proud of them.”

Newton’s girls shaved 13 strokes off their team score from Monday’s fi rst round. They went into the second day of the 36-hole event in fi fth place as a team. Only two teams shot better or even with Newton’s team score Tues-

day.After combining for a team 380 on

Monday, the Cardinals came in with a 367 on Tuesday. Wahlert equaled that and Cedar Rapids Xavier, which had a 31-shot lead over the fi eld heading into the the second round, kept its lead with a 339 on the fi nal 18 holes.

Newton’s Cardinals captured third place in the 4A state girls’ golf tour-nament. They fi nished with a 747, one shot out of second. Charles City placed second with a 746 and Xavier claimed the 4A state title with a 691.

“We grew together this year and we all got better,” said Carrie Cunning-ham, Newton senior, about claiming third place. Cunningham and four of the other Cardinals competed in the 2013 state tournament fi nishing sixth.

Sophomore Jessica Reynolds played even rounds of 18 — 90 and 90 — for a 180 and claimed the eighth-place individual medal. Reynolds shot a team low 40 on her fi nal nine holes of the day. She said her iron shots and drives were the strong suit of her game Tuesday.

PELLA — It took 100 minutes and penalty kicks to decide the regular-season game between Newton’s Car-dinals and the Pella Lady Dutch. Tuesday’s Class 2A Region 6 semifi nal game seemed to be shaping up to much of the same.

Unfortunately, Mother Na-ture intervened. Pella led 1-0 at halftime when the game was suspended for a lightning delay. The teams never came back on the fi eld. The game was entered in the books as fi nal.

“We waited on rain de-lays for about an hour and a half and the game was called. We were anxious to want to get back in that second half

because we started off the game very timid for the fi rst 10 minutes, but then really started playing our style and getting after it,” said Newton head coach Cathy Reiter.

Pella scored on a long free kick in the fi rst half as the lone goal of the contest. The Lady Dutch had edged the New-ton girls, 3-2, in a shootout in Little Hawkeye Conference action earlier this season.

“It’s really hard to end a season like we did tonight, so many ‘What ifs?’” Reiter said. “After the game, I talked with the girls about how this is just life and there are going to be many times when you feel things are unfair, but its about how you overcome that. I told them that when they think back to this year we don’t want to just remember this

one game, but to remember the whole season as a whole in how much we grew, how successful we were, and how much fun we had.”

Newton fi nished 13-4 overall and ranked 13th in Class 2A.

Reiter said she couldn’t have asked for a better group of girls to work with in her fi rst-ever year of coaching. “They were truly awesome and I’m so proud of them.”

MANY of the soccer play-off games were postponed or suspended until Wednesday because of the Tuesday night weather conditions. Collins-Maxwell/Baxter’s Class 1A Region 4 fi rst-round game at North Polk was postponed until tonight at Alleman. The Raiders play at 6:30 p.m.

Newton coaches and players react as a game offi cial explains there would be a delay in restarting Tuesday playoff game in Pella because of severe weather. The teams completed the fi rst half with Pella leading 1-0. They didn’t get back on the fi eld and the game was called complete, ending Newton’s season.

Major League Baseball

GREENBURGH, N.Y. (AP) — Hen-rik Lundqvist had his game-day face on at practice.

He still smiled and answered all the questions thrown at him Monday about the Los Angeles Kings — the New York Rang-ers’ long-awaited opponent in the Stanley Cup fi nals.

“Exciting. Long fl ight,” the star goalie said Monday before he and his teammates headed to California for New York’s fi rst appearance in the fi nals since winning the title in 1994. “East Coast-West Coast. I’ll look forward to this matchup.”

The Rangers have been waiting since Thursday to fi nd out if they would face the 2012 Stanley Cup-winning Kings or the defending champion Chicago Blackhawks in the fi nals.

They took two days off before returning to practice on Sunday. Most of the players said they watched at least part of Los An-geles’ third road Game 7 win of this playoff year that night.

So practice on Monday had a bit more focus for the Rangers as they knew exactly who was standing in their way next.

“Any team you play at this time of year is a good hockey team, especially a team that has kind of been around the playoffs and the Stanley Cup fi nals a couple of times in the last few years,” forward Derek Stepan said. “This is a very good hockey club, We have a tough challenge in front of us.”

The Kings returned to Los Angeles after their 5-4 come-from-behind over-time win at Chicago and took Monday off. They have played a record 21 playoff games before the fi nals — one more than the Rangers, who eliminated the Montreal Canadiens in six games during the Eastern Conference fi nals.

Before this year, no team that played seven games in each of the fi rst two rounds had reached the fi nals. Now, both clubs have done it. The Kings are taking it a step further with a trio of seven-game series.

“When you knew you were playing L.A., the adrenaline started coming a little bit more,” Lundqvist said. “You’ve been think-ing about this ever since you beat Montre-al, but now knowing we’re going to L.A., it was easier to focus on what’s coming.

Both teams will be back to the grind on Tuesday for media day, leading up to the opener the following night.

The Rangers and Kings split two games during the regular season — with each team winning in the other club’s build-ing — but they haven’t seen each other since Los Angeles’ 1-0 victory at Madison Square Garden on Nov. 17.

New York opened with a fi ve-game Western road trip as fi nal renovations were being made at the Garden. Its only win during that stretch was a 3-1 victory at Los Angeles on Oct. 7 — a 28-save perfor-mance by Lundqvist.

“Great goaltending. Great defense. Great forwards. Great special teams,” Kings coach Darryl Sutter provided as a quick scouting report on the Rangers. “We’re up against it again.”

The Rangers know that many, if not most, in the hockey world aren’t giving them much of a chance to win the Cup. They neither mind nor embrace the role of underdog.

They have heard it before, and have just gone about their business.

“When you get into the NHL, you know how hard it is to win,” forward Brad Richards said. “The underdog thing and the favorite thing really doesn’t mean any-thing in the locker room. You have to go out and play.”

New York needed seven games to get past division rival Philadelphia in the fi rst round. The Rangers weren’t expected to beat Pittsburgh from the start, and certain-ly not after they fell into a 3-1 series defi cit.

Montreal was coming off a stirring seven-game victory over defending East-ern Conference champion Boston, so odds makers favored the Canadiens in their matchup against New York, too.

But here the Rangers are as the last team standing.

“To put it quite simply, we’re up against the team that won the Stanley Cup two years ago that just beat the defending Stan-ley Cup champions, that without a doubt is battle-tested,” Rangers coach Alain Vi-gneault said. “We know exactly what we have to do. If we want to have a chance, we’re going to have to bring our best hock-ey of the year. It’s as simple as that.”

Rangers, Kings square off in Stanley Cup fi nal

ST. LOUIS (AP) — Eric Hosmer hit a tiebreaking single off closer Trevor Rosen-thal in the ninth inning and the Kansas City Royals beat the St. Louis Cardinals 8-7 Tuesday night for their second straight road victory in the four- game, two-city se-ries.

Rookie Kolten Wong’s fi rst career home run was a grand slam in the second that ended the Cardinals’ 20-inning scoreless drought and gave them an early four-run cushion. The defending National League champions fi nished a dismal 2-7 home stand when their pitchers faltered.

Alex Gordon’s three-run homer capped a six-run fi fth for the Royals against Jaime Garcia that put them up by two.

Kansas City starter James Shields also scuffl ed, surrendering fi ve earned runs in 5 1/3 innings, and has given up seven homers his last three starts. Shields helped himself with two hits, including an RBI double.

Peter Bourjos’ 422-foot homer put the Cardinals ahead 7-6 in the sixth. Alcides Escobar’s bloop RBI single off Pat Neshek tied it in the eighth.

Omar Infante doubled off Rosenthal (0-3) with one out in the ninth ahead of Hosmer’s hit.

Greg Holland worked the ninth for his 16th save in 17 chances for the Royals, the home team for the last two games of intrastate interleague series that resumes Wednesday.

Wade Davis (5-1) pitched the eighth and got the win.

Jhonny Peralta added two doubles and an RBI for St. Louis, outscored 14-0 the previous two games by the Royals and Gi-ants.

Wong was chosen as the NL rookie of the month earlier Tuesday and his slam in the second was the Cardinals’ fi fth hit in 10 at-bats against Shields.

St. Louis loaded the bases in the fi rst, too, but Yadier Molina grounded into an inning-ending double play on good glove-work by Escobar at shortstop and capped by Infante’s barehanded grab on the move at second and relay.

The Royals had one runner in scoring position the fi rst four innings, then batted around and hit for the cycle in the sixth to take the lead.

Gordon homered for the second straight day, Escobar had an RBI triple and Shields had an RBI double with his second straight hit.

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Kirsti Merritt hit a three-run homer, and Flori-da defeated Alabama 6-3 on Tuesday night to win its first NCAA softball champion-ship.

The Gators (55-12) swept the championship series 2-0.

Jackie Traina, one of the nation’s best pitchers, gave up five runs in 1 1/3 innings before getting pulled for Ala-bama (53-13).

Florida coach Tim Walton chose not to start ace Hannah Rogers, but she entered the game in the sixth inning after Lauren Haeger and Delanie Gourley gave her a lead. She gave up one run in two in-nings. Merritt helped her with a spectacular diving catch in center field for the first out in the top of the seventh.

Florida beat its Southeast-ern Conference rival despite committing four errors and giving Alabama (53-13) plen-

ty of chances to score.It looked early as though

Walton’s decision to start Haeger would backfire. Af-ter getting just one hit in the first six innings Monday against Rogers, Alabama got singles from Haylie McCle-ney and Kallie Case in its first two at bats on Tuesday. Jadyn Spencer singled to knock in McCleney, giving Alabama its first run of the champion-ship series. But the Crimson Tide got just one run out of the three-hit inning.

In the bottom of the first, Florida’s Stephanie Tofft cranked a 2-2 pitch with two outs over the left-field fence to tie the score. Traina threw 34 pitches in the first inning.

Florida’s Kelsey Stewart knocked in Aubree Munro to give the Gators a 2-1 lead in the bottom of the second. After that, Merritt ’s homer pushed the lead to 5-1 and chased Traina.

Royals outlast Cardinals Florida wins softball title

Spurs disagree with James, say they respect Heat SAN ANTONIO (AP) — LeBron

James has it all wrong. Gregg Popovich is a people person.

“I like everybody,” the San Antonio Spurs coach said.

Sideline reporters might disagree, but that’s what Popovich said in re-sponse to James’ comments that the Spurs don’t like the Miami Heat.

Immediately after San Antonio beat Oklahoma City in Game 6 of the Western Conference fi nals to set up the NBA Finals rematch with the Heat that begins Thursday, Tim Dun-can said, “We’ve got four more to win. We’ll do it this time.”

The Spurs nearly did it last year, but coughed up a fi ve-point lead in the fi -nal half-minute of regulation of Game 6 before losing Game 7. The agony of that loss, San Antonio’s fi rst in fi ve trips to the fi nals, led James to surmise that the Spurs aren’t very fond of the Heat.

The Spurs, whose demeanor and remarks are normally as plain as sand-wich bread, were a bit taken aback by James’ reaction.

“Knowing Timmy, that’s not trash talking,” San Antonio’s Tony Parker said. “I don’t think he meant it like that. But obviously, we are very moti-

vated and we want to get it done. At the same time, we realize we are play-ing a very good team that went to the fi nal four times in a row and won the last two.”

Spurs guard Manu Ginobili said the comment was taken completely out of context and “not a big deal at all.” He and Parker both said the Spurs have great respect for what the Heat have accomplished, having never made it to back-to-back NBA Finals until this season.

San Antonio did so after a rugged postseason run in the Western Con-ference, escaping a seven-game series

with Dallas before closing out Portland in fi ve games and Oklahoma City in six.

“Every time you play a team in the playoffs, you don’t like them,” Gino-bili said. “That grows on you. It’s such a challenge, you want to beat them so bad that you start to grow that chal-lenge of you don’t want the opponent to score on me, you don’t want them to do good. You want to do everything you can to limit them. In some ways it’s sort of dislike, but the same hap-pened to me against Dallas and against Portland and against Oklahoma City. It’s part of what the playoffs are about.”

Astrograph

The moon in Virgo aligns with the values of the Gemini sun — this is “get it done” energy. Both Virgo and Gemini are ruled by Mercury, who is slowing to a halt as he readies himself for a reversal on Saturday, June 7. Despite the stall of Mercury, this sun/moon combo is rooting for us to handle a dozen things before the retro-grade.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (June 4). The pressure to know a lot and to be good at things is off. This is what you needed to feel free to pursue what you want to do! Many people will congratu-late you for what you accomplish in July, and it comes with financial rewards, too. Love and travel will be the focus of August. September successfully ends a quest. Sagittarius and Pisces people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 3, 14, 38, 9 and 50.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The one you find irresistible will bring you to new heights of under-standing and confusion

all in the same conversa-tion. Now that’s a kind of talent, considering how even-minded you are today.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). The effort you put out to accomplish a goal will actually make you smarter. So don’t worry about whether you know enough or have the right kind of mind. You’ll get the right kind of mind as you work.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The step you take today will feel remarkably like the one you took yes-terday — and maybe it pretty much is the same step. But take it anyway. The sum of your efforts will be far greater than the number of steps taken.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The group needs a leader, and you’re it. Things will flounder without you. Don’t let that happen. Take charge. Your boldness will inspire help and support further down the line.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Your focus on one

goal is so strong early in the day that you’ll hardly notice all of the unrelated talk and distracting extras vying for your attention. Tonight, you may go delightfully off-course.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Your brevity will be appreciated. Whether it’s a meeting, lunch or date, end it on the early side. When you don’t let things drag on, the part-ing will be sweeter; the memories, more dear.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). There are no measures of personal success that are constant, because personal success is different for everyone. When you work your hardest to be your best, that is success.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Even though you’re busy, your mind will keep returning to the events of this past weekend.Something happened that will take weeks to fully process. Get comfortable with a transition.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). In the Golden

Era of Hollywood, some cinematographers would film through gauze to give everything a magi-cal, diffused look. It’s similar to the way you see the world today. Are you in love?

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). It only makes sense to take pride in what you did. In today’s case, this should include figuring out a good way to tell the story of it. Work it out on paper if you have to. This is one for the archives.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Don’t think in terms of success or failure. The move that doesn’t work the way you wanted it to is actually just a spring-board to the next experi-ment. These are the lines of thought that lead to happiness.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Others might see your actions as impul-sive, but you’re really not. You just know when improvisation is the right call. You read the room and respond accordingly.

“I wanted to stay consistent and go for pars. I had a bad front nine and just worked to get pars on the back nine. I came back after been really down on my front nine,” Reynolds said. Reynolds shot 50 on the front nine of the Ames course Tuesday.

Reynolds led the Cardinals. Reyn-olds, Cunningham, seniors Madeline Wellik and Madigan Hillyard and ju-nior Shelbey Cochran were in their second consecutive state tournament. Sophomore Cydney Hillyard played in her fi rst state tournament.

“Last year, I was really inexperienced and gained a lot from playing here then. I have two more years to gain even more experience,” Reynolds said. “I want to thank Coach (Scott) Enyart, my dad — Kyle Reynolds — and Brad Sponseller (Westwood Golf Course pro) for all their work with me. Also want to thank God for blessing me with these talents.”

Madigan Hillyard had a strong fi nal day in her NHS career. She shot 96 on Monday and came back with an 89 (45-44) to fi nish with a 185, tying for 14th. Cunningham carded 94 and 94 (49-45) for a 188 to end up tied for 19th.

The biggest turn around for Newton was by Cochran. Cochran came in at 105 on Monday.

“I had a much better round today. I couldn’t hit my irons or drives on Mon-day,” Cochran admitted. “Things went a lot batter today and I was more re-laxed and got in the groove of things. It’s a lot of fun (playing in the state tournament) and I really like the people we play golf with here.”

Cochran, who had a tough time on her back nine holes on Monday, scored even rounds of 47 on Tuesday for a 94. Her two-day total was 199, tying her for 31st.

“I expected Shelbey to bounce back and she did,” Enyart said. “Jesscia had a

rough fi rst nine holes but really battled back and earned her individual placing on that back nine. The girls came out and improved on the second day in a two-day tournament and you can’t ask for more than that. They did a great job.”

Wellik also had a better day with a 99 to fi nish with a 202 for 34th. Cyd-ney Hillyard fi nished at 205 (100-105) to take 37th.

Wellik, Cunningham and Madigan Hillyard played their fi nal round of golf for Newton.

“It was fun and it was nice to be here at state. After playing here last year, it calmed our nerves and we knew what to expect when you play a state tourna-ment,” Wellik said.

“It was good but there were a couple of things I could have done better. I wanted to at least shoot 89 so that was disappointing, but I’m glad we had our last round playing in the state tourna-ment,” Cunningham said.

“Yesterday (Monday) was pretty rough but we got a grip today. I was frustrated Monday,” Hillyard said. “We really relaxed today and didn’t worry about anything. It was just another round of golf today.”

The three Newton seniors agreed it was “a great last season” for them.

Cedar Rapids Xavier was led by se-niors Maddie Bertsch and Grace Wink-er, who went 1-2 as individuals. Bertsch shot a 149 and Winker had a 156.

Mount Pleasant was fourth as a team with a 755 followed by Adel-DeSoto-Minburn with a 758. Western Dubuque fi nished with a 761, Wahlert had a 767 and Washington had a 780.

Western Dubuque’s Lauren Prier made a hole-in-one Tuesday on the Par-3 No. 9. She aced the 130-yard hole on a tee-shot with a 9-iron. Quick research during the tournament showed it may have been a fi rst for state tourna-ment competition.
