he United States turning 238 isn’t the only American milestone in July. Nearly 45 years ago, a Saturn-V Rocket launched from the John F. Kennedy Space Center, carrying the crew of the first men to walk the lunar surface. And 45 years later, that excursion has rippled across the nation and the world to the smallest of Midwest towns, like Muncie. On the outskirts of town, surrounded by open fields, sits the Academy of Model Aeronautics and the National Model Aviation Museum, curated by Michael Smith.

Police: Bump may have caused shooting Investigators looking « It’s wall-to-wall people outside, and for shooter of 7 people God forbid you bump into someone and they don’t like it. » in Broad Ripple street | THE ASSOCIATED PRESS INDIANAPOLIS — A shooting in a Indianapolis neighborhood that injured seven people may have been set off by two people bumping into each other in the street, police said Saturday. “It looks like it was two guys bumped into each other and it took off from there,” Indianapolis Police Chief Rick Hite said. “There was no rhyme or reason.” Police arrested a 23-year-old man on a preliminary charge of being a felon in possession of a firearm and questioned him about the shooting.

with the shooting, police spokesman Lt. Chris Bailey said. As of Sunday night, police had not made any arrests. “We don’t know who the shooter was yet — shooter or shooters,” Bailey said. Investigators were still trying to sort out what happened more than 12 hours later and were hoping witnesses would come forward once the initial fear had worn down. “We know some of the things that happened, but we need confirmation,” Hite said. Police said one man was in critical condition at a local hospital. Five other men and a woman also were shot, but did not have life-threatening injuries, authorities said. All of the victims are in their 20s. Hite said numerous officers, even those who were off duty, responded to the gunfire about 2:23 a.m. Sat-

PITTSBURGH PIRATES CLAIM FORMER BALL STATE PLAYER The Pittsburgh Pirates claimed former Ball State baseball player Dean Anna off waivers Saturday. A native of Gary, Ind., Anna had been designated for assignment by the New York Yankees on Thursday after making his MLB debut with the team April 4. In 12 games with New York, Anna registered three hits in 22 at bats, a home run and three RBIs. DEAN ANNA, In addition to his early season a former Ball stint with the Yankees, Anna also State player played in 36 games for the club’s Triple-A affiliate the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders. There, he posted a .192 batting average in 152 plate appearances. The Pirates have optioned Anna to its Triple-A affiliate, the Indianapolis Indians. Anna was drafted in the 26th round of the 2008 amateur draft by the San Diego Padres.

urday in Broad Ripple, about a halfhour before the bars were to close at 3 a.m. The neighborhood about eight miles north of downtown Indianapolis has many bars and restaurants and is a popular spot with college students and other young people. “I’ve been told there were quite a few people out ... on a typical Friday night, bouncing from bar to bar,” Bailey said at a news conference earlier in the day. “Someone opens fire in a crowd like that, we’re lucky more weren’t hurt.” Hite said such incidents could be avoided if people simply didn’t carry
their guns when they party. “Late night, drinking and weapons don’t mix,” Hite said. Rob Sabatini, who owns three bars in the area, told The Indianapolis Star that the streets were crowded before the shooting. “The bars will be half-empty, but the streets are packed,” he said. “It’s wall-to-wall people outside, and God forbid you bump into someone and they don’t like it.” The shootings are the latest in a violent year for Indianapolis, which is on track to rival its record of 162 homicides, set in 1998.

ISRAEL ARRESTS 6 IN SLAYING OF TEEN FROM JERUSALEM
JERUSALEM (AP) — Israel arrested six Jewish suspects Sunday in the grisly slaying of a Palestinian teenager who was abducted and burned to death last week, marking a breakthrough in a case that has touched off violent protests in Arab sections of Jerusalem and northern Israel. While a statement did not say how many were taken into custody, an official speaking on condition of anonymity, said it was six. In a case that has gripped the country’s attention, Mohammed Abu Khdeir, 16, was abducted outside his home in east Jerusalem early Wednesday, and his charred remains were found in a Jerusalem forest. Palestinians immediately accused Jewish extremists of killing Abu Khdeir to avenge the killings of three Israeli teens who were kidnapped while hitchhiking. Israel has blamed the slayings on the Palestinian militant group Hamas. Israeli officials said they believe the killers acted out of “nationalistic” motives.
TODAY PARIS (AP) — France is increasing security on flights headed for the United States this summer amid concerns that al-Qaida is trying to develop a new bomb. The Obama administration this week called for tighter security measures at foreign airports that have direct flights to the U.S., prompting British airports to increase security Thursday. The French civil aviation authority Friday announced stepped-up security measures “for the summer period.” The
agency said the measures might cause delays on U.S.-bound flights. French government officials would not elaborate on the measures, citing the need for discretion in security matters. One fear is that extremists with a U.S. or other Western passport could carry the new bomb onto a plane undetected by airport security. At Paris’ Charles de Gaulle airport, U.S.-bound flights saw delays of 30 minutes to an hour Friday.
4. ACTIVISTS HOPEFUL OF DELAYED DEPORTATION

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Activists are pointing to the delayed deportation of a mother and her children as the kind of compassion they hope President Barack Obama will pursue in the wake of his announcement that he’ll act on his own to address immigration problems. Garland resident Ana Cañenquez and four of her seven children were originally ordered to leave the United States and return to El Salvador by March 21. That date was pushed back, and now there’s
no specific deadline for them to leave. The extra time allows her to save money to afford a home back in El Salvador, both she and immigration officials said. “It makes sense for [the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency] to focus on serious criminals rather than to separate families or target people who keep out of trouble here,” Proyecto Latino de Utah director Tony Yapias said. “That is a wiser use of resources.”
5. THIEF RETURNS 9/11 FIREFIGHTER’S FLAG
DONETSK, Ukraine (AP) — Driven out of their key stronghold in eastern Ukraine, pro-Russia separatists regrouped Sunday in the city of Donetsk with thousands of supporters at a rally, vowing to renew their fight against the government in Kiev. Ukrainian troops Saturday forced the rebels out of Slovyansk, a city of about 100,000 that had been the center of the fighting. The government’s success there suggested it may finally be making gains in the months-long battle.
HUNTINGTON STATION, N.Y. (AP) — An American flag stolen from the family of a firefighter killed Sept. 11, 2001, has been returned with a note that says: “I am so sorry, I had no idea.” NBC New York reported that the flag was returned Thursday. It has resumed flying on the porch of Melissa Brengel’s home in Huntington Station on New York’s Long Island.
EDITOR-IN-CHIEF Matt McKinney
President Petro Poroshenko said, while it was not a total victory, purging Slovyansk of the armed insurgents had “incredible symbolic importance.” It was not yet clear, however, whether the rebels have been permanently crippled and their setback will increase pressure on Russia to do more to help them. Rebel fighters from Slovyansk and other towns taken over by the Ukrainian army moved freely Sunday around central Donetsk.

BELO HORIZONTE, Brazil — Even without Neymar, Brazil’s show must go on. The World Cup hosts, now forced to play without their injured superstar, will face Germany on Tuesday for a spot in next weekend’s final. Neymar fractured a vertebra in his lower back in Brazil’s quarterfinal win over Colombia, ruling him out for the rest of the tournament. Despite having to stay off the field, the 22-year-old striker with the dyed-blonde fauxhawk is still expecting Brazil to win its sixth World Cup title. “I won’t be able to fulfill the dream of playing in a World Cup final,” Neymar said. “But I’m sure they will win this one, they will become champions, and I will be there with them and all of Brazil will be celebrating together.” Along with Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, Neymar was among the biggest stars at the World Cup. And in Brazil, the man in the yellow No. 10 jersey is something of a megastar, with his face plastered on billboards around the country and constantly shown on TV. His play on the field lived up to the hype, with four goals in the group stage. He continued to make an impact, without any more goals, in the knock-

out games until he took a knee in the back late in the match against Colombia. The question for Brazil now is who will step up to replace Neymar as the focal point of the attack? The much-maligned Fred has been largely ineffective so far, while Hulk has failed to score for the hosts. Making things tougher on Brazil is the suspension of captain Thiago Silva. The Paris Saint-Germain defender scored the first goal in the quarterfinal victory, but later picked up a yellow card for foolishly impeding the Colombia goalkeeper. It was his second yellow of the tournament, so he must sit out the match against Germany. Brazil has played Germany only once at the World Cup, winning 2-0 in the 2002 final. But the Germans, who will make their 13th appearance in the semifinals, have reached the final seven times and won three of them. At this year’s tournament, Germany coach Joachim Loew has experimented with the defense, moving captain Philipp Lahm into the midfield and then back to his usual right back position. “The team is improving from match to match,” said Loew, who has led Germany to the semifinals in every major tournament since taking over eight years ago. The winner of Tuesday’s match will face either Argentina or the Netherlands in Sunday’s final. And if it’s Neymar’s teammates that prevail, the match at Maracana Stadium in

Ordinary Internet users caught up in data sweep Non-targeted people make up 90 percent of NSA’s collection | THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — When the U.S. National Security Agency intercepted the online accounts of legally targeted foreigners over a four-year period it also collected the conversations of nine times as many ordinary Internet users, both Americans and non-Americans, according to a probe by The Washington Post. Nearly half of those surveillance files contained names, email addresses or other details that the NSA marked as belonging to U.S. citizens or residents, the Post reported in a story posted on its website Saturday night. While the federal agency tried to protect their privacy by masking more than 65,000 such references to individuals, the newspaper said it found nearly 900 additional email addresses that could be
strongly linked to U.S. citizens or residents. At the same time, the intercepted messages contained material of considerable intelligence value, the Post reported, such as information about a secret overseas nuclear project, double-dealing by an ostensible ally, a military calamity that befell an unfriendly power, and the identities of aggressive intruders into U.S. computer networks. As an example, the newspaper said the files showed that months of tracking communications across dozens of alias accounts led directly to the capture in 2011 of a Pakistan-based bomb builder suspected in a 2002 terrorist bombing in Bali. The Post said it was withholding other examples, at the request of the CIA, that would compromise ongoing investigations. The material reviewed by the Post included roughly 160,000 intercepted email and instantmessage conversations, some of them hundreds of pages long, and 7,900 documents taken from more than 11,000
online accounts. It spanned President Barack Obama’s first term, 2009 to 2012 and was provided to the Post by former NSA analyst Edward Snowden. The daily lives of more than 10,000 account holders who were not targeted were catalogued and recorded, the Post reported. The newspaper described that material as telling “stories of love and heartbreak, illicit sexual liaisons, mental-health crises, political and religious conversions, financial anxieties and disappointed hopes.” The material collected included more than 5,000 private photos, the paper said. The cache Snowden provided to the newspaper came from domestic NSA operations under the broad authority granted by Congress in 2008 with amendments to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, according to the Post. By law, the NSA may “target” only foreign nationals located overseas unless it obtains a warrant based on probable cause from a special surveil-

The newspaper looked over data intercepted by the NSA from 2009 to 2012. Compared to targeted foreigners, nine times as many ordinary Internet users’ conversations were collected. For example, the agency catalogued and recorded the daily lives of more than 10,000 account holders who were not targeted. Roughly 160,000 email and IM conversations were read. lance court, the Post said. “Incidental collection” of third-party communications is inevitable in many forms of surveillance, according to the newspaper. In the case of the material Snowden provided, those in an online chat room visited by a target or merely reading the discussion were included in the data sweep, as were hundreds of people using a computer server whose Internet protocol was targeted.

CHRISTOPHER STEPHENS CHIEF REPORTER castephens@bsu.edu
This month, hundreds of bills and acts signed into law by Gov. Mike Pence during the 2014 legislative session come into effect. New laws include stopping police officers from downloading or looking at accused criminals’ cellphones without a search warrant, protecting minors who are reporting a sex crime from alcohol-related offenses and allowing the production of industrial hemp in the state. Here are some of the laws that came into effect July 1.

The law focuses on laws concerning texting and driving. Officers are still allowed to access phones if they have a permit or are otherwise authorized by law.

Senate Bill 227: The state’s Lifeline Law provides immunity to a minor who has consumed alcohol to report a medical emergency for a friend. Senate Bill 227 enhances the law, giving immunity to victims of sexual assault and a person who believes they are witnessing a crime. The change also gives a mitigating circumstance for a person during sentencing if they
House Bill 1006: This bill was written to fix conflicts between several bills that concern the treatment of criminals. First, the bill gives a court the ability to reduce or suspend a criminal’s jail sentence after they have spent a year in jail. The decision would be based on the criminal’s conduct in jail. Another sweeping change to criminal code changes felonies from defined as “classes” to “levels.” This breaks the Class A felony into Levels 1 and 2, the Class B felony into Levels 3 and 4, the Class C felony into Level 5 and the Class D felony into Level 6. Several changes were made to crimes involving dealing cocaine or other narcotic drugs and methamphetamine.

This includes craft such as a model of the X-33, a proposed replacement for the space shuttle. “They came to us because ... the person who was working there at the model shop was a longtime air model enthusiast, and he recognized the value of these models for others,” Smith said. “So he was able to work out an agreement where we ... are able to display them.” Manufacturers and individuals have donated the predecessors to the popularized unmanned aerial vehicles, known as drones, used by the military. It’s not just the weekend hobbyists who play with model aircraft, Smith said. “NASA is still very interested in unmanned vehicles as research tools,” he said. “Even today with everything being designed on computers, they still use subscale models and drop them in order to get real
SOCIAL HOST LAW
Senate Bill 236: Adults who provide a spot for minors to drink alcohol are now committing a Class B misdemeanor. This includes providing rental properties and arranging the use of a property to allow a minor to drink. This misdemeanor moves up to Class A if the person has a prior, unrelated conviction and can become a Level 6 felony if consumption, ingestion or use of alcohol causes a serious injury or death.
COLLEGE EPINEPHRINE
House Bill 1323: Colleges and universities are allowed to craft policies for emergency administration of epinephrine. The drug helps ease the symptoms of people suffering from many allergic reactions. Schools are now allowed to receive prescriptions for the drug to be kept in case of emergencies.
LIFELINE LAW EXTENDED
property crimes and auto theft was reduced from a Level 5 to Level 6 felony. Possessing a pornographic image of a person younger than 18 by another person under 18 is lowered to a Class A misdemeanor if the two are in a dating relationship and both parties consent. A lower offense category was created for someone dealing less than a gram of illegal drugs.
UNDERAGE TANNING
Senate Bill 50: This new law prohibits people younger than 16 from using a tanning bed. Previously, children under 16 could tan with the permission of a parent or legal guardian. The bill was created and prepared by the Health Financial Commission, a committee made up of state legislators to assess the health and cost benefits of new legislation.
INDUSTRIAL HEMP
Senate Bill 357: After federal approval, it will be legal to grow hemp for industrial purposes. A grower will be required to receive a license and will be subject to inspection. The definition of marijuana was changed to allow for the cultivation of the plant material without growing the buds of the plant, which are still illegal.

Ferguson’s contract lasts for five years, ending June 30, 2019, but both the Board of Trustees and Ferguson “desire and anticipate“ the relationship to last longer. The board can offer extensions to Ferguson to keep him. After the first year of Ferguson’s tenure, he will meet with the Board of Trustees to have a performance review. Ferguson’s performance goals will be agreed upon beforehand by both parties. Ferguson will receive a base annual salary of $450,000 before taxes. These will come in monthly payments of approximately $37,500. Ferguson is allowed 12 workdays of sick leave per year.
He must live in Bracken House, the university-owned residence at 2200 W. Berwyn Road in Muncie. Ball State pays for all utilities associated with the house, except his personal telephone service. This include a “day” housekeeping service that the board will provide on what it considers a “need” basis. Ferguson must regularly entertain people from the university, including “faculty, staff, students, alumni and friends of the university.” The board will furnish or pay for repairs, maintenance and decoration if they are what the board deems “necessary and reasonable.”
Ball State will give Ferguson an insured vehicle and pay for fuel used for university business or presidential duties. The university will pay or reimburse Ferguson for any moving expenses it deems reasonable and necessary when he moves into Bracken House. Ferguson will receive a Delaware Country Club membership at the expense of Ball State, which will pay monthly dues and expenses for university-related business at the club.
Ferguson gets 24 days of paid vacation each year. If he doesn’t use them, the days carry over for 90 days after the end of the fiscal year, but not year to year unless the board approves this in advance. Ferguson may be terminated from his position for conduct “that would bring public disrespect, contempt or ridicule upon the university.“
If fired with cause, he wouldn’t be entitled to severance pay or benefits.

Their use and development bleeds through to everyday life, just how the technology used in the Apollo missions bled through into society almost a half a century ago, Smith said. “For unmanned air systems in general, there is tremendous growth potential,” he said. “Being able to alleviate the pilot on board removes the risk. There is going to be a potentially huge evolutionary change, even on
land and sea. What does the future look like when you don’t have to drive the car?” Other potential uses for unmanned systems in society are commercial delivery or monitoring forest fires. The bleed through Smith discussed refers to how the miniaturization of components led to mass-produced radio equipment for model aircraft available at stores. However, on a larger scale, NASA research and endeavors has led to LED lights, ear thermometers, safety grooving on

Smith said NASA and space exploration have given more to society than some people realize. “There are a lot of discoveries and advancements made today that a lot of people just go, ‘Oh gee-whiz, that’s cool’ and don’t realize the implications of them and won’t until we see applications for them in our everyday lives,” he said.

First lady fights for school lunch rules Obama bucks GOP on efforts to soften anti-obesity plan | THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — Michelle Obama has jumped into perhaps her biggest battle yet. She’s fighting a House Republican effort to soften a central part of her anti-childhood obesity campaign and said she’s ready “to fight until the bitter end.” Obama even mocked the GOP effort in an opinion column and argued her case on Twitter. “Remember a few years ago when Congress declared that the sauce on a slice of pizza should count as a vegetable in school lunches?” she wrote in The New York Times. “You don’t have to be a nutritionist to know that this doesn’t make much sense.” Obama lobbied largely behind
the scenes four years ago for the Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010, which requires more fruit, vegetables and whole grains in school meals, along with less sodium, sugar and fat. It was a major achievement, the first update to school lunch rules in decades designed to make school meals more nutritious. The School Nutrition Association, an industry-backed group that represents school cafeteria workers and originally supported the standards, has now turned against them. The association said it fully supports getting kids to eat healthier but said many districts are losing money because students aren’t buying the healthier lunches. More than 1 million fewer students eat lunch at school each day since the first round of standards went into effect in 2012, following decades of steadily increasing participation, said Diane Pratt-Heavner, a spokes-
woman for the association. A second round of rules, including standards for school breakfasts, took effect July 1. “How can we call these standards a success when they are

Between 1913 and 1971, more than 5,300 people were cremated at the hospital. Most were patients at the mental institution, but some died at local hospitals, the state tuberculosis hospital, a state penitentiary or the Fairview Training Center, where people with developmental disabilities were institutionalized. Hospital officials have been working for years to reunite the remains of their former patients with surviving relatives. Since the urns were found by lawmakers on a tour of the hospital in
2005, 183 have been claimed. The 3,409 that remain and have been identified are listed in a searchable online database. Thirty-eight urns will likely never be identified; they’re unmarked, have duplicate numbers or aren’t listed in ledgers of people cremated at the hospital. Some stayed just days before they died, others for their entire lives. They came from every state except Alaska and Hawaii. Nearly 1,000 were born in 44 countries. Five were born at sea. Some patients spent a lifetime at the hospital for conditions like depression and bipolar disorder that, in modern times, are treated on an outpatient basis. Some suffered from severe delusions, others from physical deformities. Some seemed to be institutionalized because their

SWINDLED CHURCH LOOKS TO SURVIVE
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — An Indianapolis church that was swindled out of $400,000 intended to help the congregation rebuild after a fire instead is fighting for its survival. Bell’s Chapel Church is facing foreclosure at year’s end, and many members have left after Hrond Arman Gasparian’s promises of helping them secure a grant to rebuild turned out to be an elaborate fraud. Gasparian, 67, of Fishers, was convicted in June on 10 counts of wire fraud after a three-day jury trial. “But he not only robbed God,” Bishop Adrienne Holmes told the Indianapolis Star. “He robbed this community.” Bell’s Chapel has served the community on the city’s northeast side since 1925. The old church was destroyed in a November 2008 fire that went unsolved, Holmes said. Court documents said Gasparian spent the church’s $400,000 and never secured a grant to help rebuild. Half-erected steel that was intended to be the church’s framework is all that stands on the empty lot now.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Last week saw two diametrically opposed Indiana politicians go to great lengths to ensure the state wins large sums of federal money without the strings that are normally attached. Last Monday, Schools Superintendent Glenda Ritz, a Democrat, filed a request with the U.S. Department of Education to continue using federal “Title I” education money with flexibility. A day later, Republican Gov. Mike Pence asked the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services to grant the state an exemption — and about $16.5 billion — to expand Medicaid using a version of the Healthy Indiana Plan. The federal government’s say in how the state operates has been a point of contention for some of Indiana’s leaders. For example, Sen. Scott Schneider, R-Indianapolis, led the drive to pull Indiana out of the Common Core national education standards. But he removed his name from the legislation that formally ended the state’s involvement when a caveat was added — that Indiana would do whatever was needed to maintain federal funding.

Cut your layers. This part is a little tricky. The bottom layer should stay intact. For the second layer, you are going to cut away everything that you want to show — in this photo, the background. In the third layer, cut away everything you want to show from the first and second layer, so the background and the subject. The fourth layer is going to be the top layer, and for me, all that I wanted to show was the face of the sign. When you line them up, they should look something like this step.
Photos make great gifts, but if you can make something out of a photo, that’s even better. Making 3-D photos with a shadow box is an easy way to make a cheap, personalized gift that the recipient will cherish.
WHAT YOU WILL NEED:
• Prints of your photo (about 4-7 copies) • X-Acto knife • Mat board or foam core • Glue stick • Frames (2 or 3 of the same size) • Hot glue or heavy duty craft glue
1
When selecting a photo, look for one that will give you layers to cut out. The background is going to be one layer, then your subject another one. Look for other objects in the foreground that can be used to make more layers, like the sign in the photo I used. Print out a copy of the photo and make marks to help see the layers.
