GOOD MORNING Grease buildup blamed for fire AUBURN — A grease buildup caused a fire that damaged a small Auburn restaurant one week ago, Auburn Fire Chief Mike VanZile said Wednesday.

The blaze at The Tasty, 1400 N. Main St., ignited just before 9 p.m. Aug. 2.

VanZile said the fire began in grease that accumulated in a duct system in the building’s ceiling. The heaviest damage occurred toward the front of the building.

An estimate of the value of the damage is not complete, VanZile said.

More charges for alleged burglar Police say they caught suspect twice

BY MATT GETTS mgetts@kpcmedia.com

AUBURN — An area man already in the DeKalb County Jail for allegedly burglarizing a home was hit with five similar charges Tuesday.

Robert Lee Slone, 52, whose last address was in rural Corunna, has been charged with burglary, a Class B felony; two counts of burglary, a Class C felony; attempted burglary, a Class C felony and receiving stolen property, a Class D felony.

Slone has been in the DeKalb

County Jail since DeKalb County Sheriff’s Department Sgt. Dave Cserep allegedly caught him stealing items from a garage in the 100 block of Michigan Street, Corunna, on May 4.

The other crimes are alleged to have been committed Slone between Dec. 17, 2012 and April 28 in five DeKalb County locations.

Slone also has been charged with being a habitual offender.

According to court papers, Slone was sentenced five times between 1985-2010 in Noble County.

Two of the convictions were for burglary and two others were for receiving stolen property and residential entry.

Slone told police in December he was homeless, but had recently lived in Butler, St. Joe, Spencerville and Albion. He claimed his wife was in a nursing home and he had a child in foster care.

Slone was allegedly caught in the act of burglarizing a rural Butler home on Dec. 17, 2012, by DeKalb County Sheriff’s Department Deputy Lee Stoy, Butler Police Chief Jim Nichols and

Probe finds grade issues

Cable cut disrupts Internet services ANGOLA — Upward of 30,000 Mediacom Internet and phone service customers across northern Indiana lost service for 10 hours due to a fiber optic cable cut Tuesday.

“When a fiber cut like this occurs, it has a very negative effect on our customers, and we are very sorry for that,” said Mediacom spokeswoman Phyllis Peters.

The cut occurred at about 12:37 p.m. EDT near the Illinois-Indiana border when a private contractor not working for Mediacom was doing soil boring work and cut a major Mediacom fiber cable in multiple places, Peters said. Service was restored at 10:40 p.m.

Between 20,000 and 30,000 customers lost phone and Internet service.

Complicating the issue was the fact that boring rods used by the contractor became stuck in the soil, Peters said.

Once Mediacom crews determined the extent of the damage, they set about replacing the damaged fiber with 800 feet of new fiber.

The repair was difficult, because the contractor’s equipment was difficult to remove so repairs could be made. Typically a cut of this magnitude takes 5-7 hours to repair, Peters said.

Peters said the fiber that was cut was the main line that services all of northern Indiana.

Mediacom television was interrupted for about 20 minutes, Peters said. Television service was rerouted through other lines.

Mediacom has not determined whether customers will receive credits for time lost due to Tuesday’s outage. Typically that is reserved for outages caused by acts of God.

Butler Patrolman Jon Bonifer.

Slone was originally booked on a parole violation warrant on sentencings relating to 2009 convictions in Noble County, and he was transferred to the Indiana Department of Correction to serve the remainder of his sentence.

Stoy said while Slone was in custody, officers attempted to tie him to other burglaries that had been committed in the area.

Stoy also was working with the prosecutor’s office in DeKalb County to determine the proper charge to file in the case.

Evidence of ‘manipulation’ found in school ratings KATHRYN BASSETT

DeKalb Central board hires former Eastside band director Graham takes middle school post

BY KATHRYN BASSETT kbassett@kpcmedia.com

WATERLOO — He led Eastside’s Marching Blazer Pride band to its first-ever appearance at the state finals. Now, Jim Graham will become the new band director at DeKalb Middle School.

The DeKalb Central school board voted to hire Graham at Tuesday night’s regular board meeting. He will replace Clayton Henady, who has resigned to take a position outside the district, said middle school Principal Kimberly Fifer. The board also accepted Henady’s resignation Tuesday night.

“Jim comes to us with 12 years experience and an outstanding track record,” Fifer said in a memo to the board. “He most recently led Eastside Junior-Senior High School to state last year.”

Under Graham’s direction, the Marching Blazer Pride tackled some of its most difficult music ever, with last year’s contest show featuring selections from Igor Stravinsky’s “The Firebird.”

With Graham as director, Eastside’s band made its first appearance at semi-state in 2008 and went on to compete in the semi-state contest in 2009, 2011 and 2012.

In other DeKalb Central school board business Tuesday: • James Elizondo of City Securities Corp. presented financing options for the McKenney-Harrison Elementary School renovation project. The board appears to have narrowed its options to two plans. One would involve demolishing the Harrison building and using new construction to consol-

idate school areas. The plan would save the newer, existing McKenney structure. It carries a price tag of $16.8 million, with $1 million in demolition and site work, $7 million in additions, $893,000 in heavy renovations, $4.4 million in other renovations and $3.3 million in soft costs.

The other plan under consideration involves saving the Harrison building, as well as using new construction to create a closed loop of classrooms on the McKenney site, while removing much of the 1950s portion of the McKenney building. That option has an estimated price of $20.5 million, with $1 million in demolition, $8 million in additions, $4.8 million in heavy renovations, $2.5 million in other renovations and $4.1 million in soft costs.

Elizondo presented information that showed the estimated tax rate impact with repayment over 20 SEE DIRECTOR, PAGE A6

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Indiana’s top education official on Wednesday acknowledged “manipulation” in the way the state’s schools are graded, the latest fallout from an Associated Press report that found her predecessor worked behind the scenes to improve the score of a charter school founded by an influential Republican donor.

Superintendent Glenda Ritz told state school board members that this year’s school ratings would be held up, at least temporarily, as a result of the independent review into the A-F grading system and left open the possibility some of last year’s grades could be changed.

The system was established by Tony Bennett, a rising star in the education reform movement, who last week resigned from his new job as Florida’s schools chief amid the scandal in Indiana.

“Upon our preliminary examination, the department has verified that there was manipulation of calculation categories and the department has also determined that there are broader issues that need to be examined,” Ritz said.

Ritz, a Democrat, brought up the scandal at Wednesday’s school board meeting, but Bennett’s allies on the Republican-dominated board had little to say. She met privately Wednesday afternoon with Indiana’s Republican legislaSEE GRADE, PAGE A6

Bids opened for library expansion in Garrett

BY SUE CARPENTER scarpenter@kpcmedia.com

The two-story additon will provide two meeting rooms on the second floor and additional youth and teen space on the lower level.

Jack Krouse, president of Construction Control Inc. of Fort Wayne, read bids submitted from six area contractors.

Alternative costs

were also submitted for various items, including three optional flooring and carpeting plans from $2,000 less to $29,500 more in costs; replacement of the existing 100-yearold original wooden doors with estimates ranging from $11,500 to $22,800; reroofing of the existing flat roof with estimates between $16,295 to $33,700; replacement and installation existing of lamps and ballasts estimated between $3,860 to $5,980; and an additional plaza on the south side of the building estimated at $6,443 to $9,300.

Krouse told contractor representatives at the meeting that he and his staff will reconfirm the numbers and strategize with Library Director Cate Birdseye

Birdseye said she hopes to award the contract in the next two weeks.

In addition to Signature Construction, contractors submitting bids for the project are Robert E. Crosby & Son Inc. of Fort Wayne; Gibson Lewis LLC of South Bend, Harold McComb & Son Inc. of Fort Wayne; Weigand Construction of Fort Wayne and The Hamstra Group Inc. of Wheatfield.

explain why they decided to commit suicide.

GARRETT — The Garrett Board of Works heard updates from city department heads during a brief meeting Tuesday in Westside Park to mark National Night Out. City planner Milton Otero reported two contractor bids were submitted for the city’s 50/50 sidewalk replacement plan.

Obama cancels Putin meeting

WASHINGTON (AP) — Already faltering, President Barack Obama’s five-year effort to reboot U.S.-Russian relations finally crashed Wednesday, as the White House abruptly canceled his planned face-to-face summit with Russia’s Vladimir Vicki Long Putin.

Kids find snakes, fish at state fair INDIANAPOLIS — Two Indiana Department of Natural Resources favorites — “Snakes Alive” and the Kids Fishin’ Pond — kick off day No. 1 of the Indiana State Fair and will be offered daily through Aug. 18.

They will be adjacent to the air-conditioned Natural Resources Building, the hub of DNR State Fair activities.

Check dnr.IN.gov/statefair for the entire DNR schedule.

During Snakes Alive, interpretive naturalists from across Indiana will talk about snakes Hoosiers might find in their backyards. Start time is 10 a.m. daily at the 150-seat DNR amphitheater.

The 312,000-gallon Fishin’ Pond next to the amphitheater is packed with fish ready to be caught and released. Youth fishing is available most days from

9 a.m. to noon and from 4-7 p.m. Parents/guardians should check the daily schedule online or in the State Fair program. New this year, kids will be able to fish with family members on Family Fishing Fridays at the Fishin’ Pond.

Also featured each afternoon is a program with at least one live bird of prey.

These programs take place at 4:30 p.m. every day.

Visitors to the building also can view native Indiana fish in aquariums, pick up free copies of the latest Recreation Guide and other informational brochures, subscribe to Outdoor Indiana magazine at a State Fair special deal, ask questions of DNR experts, visit the Mercantile to purchase unique outdoorsbased items, or just take an air-conditioned break.

HUNTERTOWN — ACRES Land Trust’s new preserve guides are available.

There are pictures, descriptions and maps of each of the Land Trust’s preserves in the 136-page booklet. It is available for $10 at the ACRES office, 1802 Chapman Road, Huntertown, and other locations that include Pokagon State Park’s Nature Center in Steuben County and Maplewood Nature Center in LaGrange.

Since 1960, ACRES Land Trust has acquired over 4,450 acres of significant natural areas.

There are preserves large and small, each with a distinct character and history, from the prairies of Wing Haven Nature Preserve adjacent to Pokagon, to the old growth forests of The Bicentennial Woods near Huntertown, to the waterfalls of Kokiwanee and Hathaway Preserve at Ross Run. In Fort Wayne, the guides are also available at Wild Birds Unlimited, Hyde Brothers Book Store, The Bird Seedery and Reigel’s Pipe and Tobacco Shop on Calhoun Street.

They are also on sale at Kosciusko County Convention and Visitors Bureau, Wabash County Historical

For the uninitiated, great meals in the great outdoors may seem like an oxymoron. But with a grounding in the basics, anyone can cook like a pro when away from the kitchen.

Adapt accordingly when you’re away from the kitchen.

Master the more simple recipes before increasing the challenge level. Avoid complicated, multi-course meals. And don’t try to bring the kitchen with you!

Learn to multi-task your gear, and further reduce your load by packing only what you’ll need.

Recognize that different types of trips require different approaches to cooking.

Campground or backpacking trail? On water or high ground? Small or large group? Short or long trip? Fair or foul weather?

Wild animals? These are some of the important questions to ponder before planning your menu and gathering the equipment.

Stout gear is ideal for the campground, but light and compact cookware is necessary when carrying it in a pack. On the water, less bulky gear is always a good idea, especially if portaging a canoe or kayak is required.

And foul weather and pesky animals will drive you to favor simpler and fast recipes. Prepare accordingly.

Understand your gear

options.

Stoves and cookware designed specifically for backpacking are compact and lightweight, usually intended for cooking for no more than a few people.

In contrast, equipment for the campground setting is designed to be rugged and generally adequate for larger groups. Because this type of gear is carried in your trunk or trailer, instead of on your back, more options are available, such as using cast iron cookware.

Consider the range of outdoor cooking techniques available.

What are your food preferences and favorite cooking techniques? The answers will determine the types of recipes best suited to your trip as well as the cooking methods to go along with them.

Using a pot or pan over a backpacking stove is the most common form of food preparation on the trail, but other forms of cooking are available, if pack weight permits (for example, a pack oven) or local regulations allow (e.g. a campfire).

In the campground, the options are nearly endless: pots or pans on the camp stove; grilling, foil cooking, plank cooking, or baking over a campfire; cooking in a Dutch oven over coals; baking in a box oven with coals; using a cooking iron or camp fork over flames; and, of course, the many no-cook options that are available.

all times.

High heat, sharp utensils, noxious fumes, heavy and hot cook gear, bacteria, viruses, and wild animals with teeth and claws: cooking outdoors without regard to these will ultimately end in injury or illness. Cook only in a fire-safe area in a quiet corner away from the action.

Exercise vigilance around any flame. Work slowly and methodically. Don’t cross-contaminate uncooked foods with raw meat or eggs. Sanitize your hands.

Keep perishable foods cool. Properly seal and store food items. Maintain your cooking equipment in good working order. Use windscreens to prevent flying embers. Keep you and your camping buddies healthy by being a life-long student of safety!

Want to become a acclaimed master chef of the wilderness? Planning, practice, and attention to detail will get you there.

Experts: North Korea grows nuke plant VIENNA (AP) — A U.S. institute tracking North Korea’s nuclear weapons program says recent satellite photos show Pyongyang is doubling the size of its uranium enrichment plant, jibing with the country’s announced plans to expand technology that can be used both to create energy and the core of nuclear weapons.

The imagery comes from two sources, satellite companies Digital Globe and Astrium Geoinformation Services, and was seen

by The Associated Press ahead of publication by the Institute for Science and International Security on Wednesday. In an accompanying note, ISIS said the photos of the Nyongbyon nuclear complex show

construction under way to “effectively double” the size of the enrichment hall.

That, said ISIS, would allow North Korea to also double the number of centrifuges now enriching uranium.

Revealing the existence of a uranium enrichment program three years ago, Pyongyang said the plant contained 2,000 centrifuges — machines that are linked up in series and spin uranium gas into material that can be used either to power reactors or arm nuclear weapons, depending on the degree of enrichment.

That means the 4,000 centrifuges that the space is apparently being expanded for could potentially make twice that amount, giving them the capacity to build

up to four bombs a year — should the country decide to use them for that purpose.

The most recent satellite photo was taken July 28.

ISIS says that measured against earlier images, it shows construction at the Nyongbyon site, including “the expansion of the gas centrifuge building” to twice its previous size.

The Washington-based think tank said the images indicate that work on the structure seems to have begun sometime in March.

It cited a North Korean government announcement that came shortly afterward revealing plans for “readjusting and restarting all the nuclear facilities in Nyongbyon, including (the) uranium enrichment plant.”

Briefs • Inferno roars through airport in Nairobi, Kenya NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) — A small fire at Kenya’s main airport swelled into a roaring inferno Wednesday that destroyed part of East Africa’s largest aviation hub and hampered air travel across the continent.

Firefighters were desperately short of equipment in an area where the county government apparently lacks a single working fire engine.

Crews needed hours to get the flames under control and at one point resorted to a line of officers passing water buckets.

The early morning blaze gutted the arrival hall, forcing authorities to close the entire airport and airlines to cancel dozens of flights.

The flames also charred airport banks and foreign exchange bureaus.

No serious injuries were

reported.

The fire broke out on the 15th anniversary of the bombings by al-Qaida of the U.S. embassies in Nairobi and Dar es Salaam, in neighboring Tanzania.

No terror connection to the fire was immediately evident, but the blaze revived long-standing safety concerns about Jomo Kenyatta International Airport.

Egypt: Diplomacy has failed to resolve crisis CAIRO (AP) — Egypt’s military-backed interim leadership proclaimed Wednesday that a crackdown against two protest sites is inevitable, saying that nearly two weeks of foreign diplomatic efforts to peacefully resolve its standoff with the Muslim Brotherhood have failed.

on his own, they want their roles minimized so that Hasan couldn’t ask them for help with a strategy they oppose.

Hasan repeatedly objected, telling the judge: “That’s a twist of the facts.”

The exchange prompted the judge, Col. Tara Osborn, to halt the long-delayed trial on only its second day. She must now decide what to do next, knowing that all moves she makes will be scrutinized by a military justice system that has overturned most soldiers’ death sentences in the last three decades.

Hasan faces a possible death sentence if convicted of the 13 counts of premeditated murder and 32 counts of attempted premeditated for the attack on the Texas military post.

“I don’t envy her. She’s on the horns of a dilemma here,” said Richard Rosen, a law professor at Texas Tech University and former military prosecutor who attended the first two days of trial. “I think whatever she does is potentially dangerous, at least from the view of an appellate court.”

Rosen and other experts said that if Osborn allows

Poppe and Hasan’s other standby defense attorneys to take over, the judge could be seen as having unfairly denied Hasan’s right to defend himself, a right guaranteed by the Bill of Rights. But if she lets Hasan continue defending himself, she could be depriving him of adequate help from experienced attorneys.

He also noted that it’s extremely rare for defendants to represent themselves in military court.

“They don’t want this case to be reversed on appeal,” Rosen said. “The worst thing that can happen would be to retry the case all over again.”

Giving Poppe a more active role in the case or having him take over the defense could enable Hasan to argue he was denied his right to defend himself, added Victor Hansen, another former military prosecutor who teaches at the New England School of Law. “At the end of the day, the defendant has the absolute right who’s going to represent him, including deciding to represent himself,” Hansen said Wednesday.

Leaders of growing al-Qaida a threat WASHINGTON (AP) — Far from being on the brink of collapse, al-Qaida’s core leadership remains a potent threat — and one that experts say has encouraged the terror network’s spread into more countries today than it was operating in immediately after 9/11.

President Barack Obama, who ordered the May 2011 raid that killed Osama bin Laden, has described al-Qaida’s headquarters as “a shadow of its former self” and his spokesman Jay Carney has called it “severely diminished” and “decimated.” The bravado, however, didn’t match the Obama administration’s action this week.

Nineteen U.S. diplomatic outposts stretching across the Eastern Hemisphere remain closed, and nonessential personnel have been evacuated from the U.S. Embassy in Yemen after intelligence officials said they had intercepted a recent message from al-Qaida’s top leader about plans for a major terror attack.

The new communique came from bin Laden’s

statements strongly suggested that Egypt’s sharp polarization may spiral into even more bloodshed as thousands of supporters of ousted President Mohammed Morsi, a longtime Brotherhood figure, camp out at two main Cairo intersections and hold daily protests outside security buildings.

FORT HOOD, Texas (AP) — On the first day Maj. Nidal Hasan went on trial for his life, he claimed responsibility for the 2009 shooting rampage at Fort Hood. He posed no questions to most witnesses.

He said the alleged murder weapon was his, even though no one asked.

The Army psychiatrist sometimes took notes while acting as his own attorney, but he mostly looked forward impassively and rarely asked for help as witness after witness said he was the shooter.

By Wednesday, the lawyers ordered to help him said they had had enough — they couldn’t watch him fulfill a death wish.

“It becomes clear his goal is to remove impediments or obstacles to the death penalty and is working toward a death penalty,” his lead standby attorney, Lt. Col. Kris Poppe, told the judge. That strategy, he argued, “is repugnant to defense counsel and contrary to our professional obligations.”

Poppe said he and the other standby lawyers want to take over the case, or if Hasan is allowed to continue

replacement, Ayman al-Zawahri, who as early as December 2001 announced plans to decentralize the network and scatter its affiliates across the globe as a way of ensuring its survival.

Now, major al-Qaida hubs are thriving along the Iraqi-Syrian border, in North Africa and, in the most serious risk to the U.S., in Yemen.

The regional hubs may not take direct orders from al-Zawahri, and terror experts say they rarely coordinate operations with each other or share funding and fighters. But they have promoted al-Qaida’s mission far beyond what its reach was a dozen years ago and, in turn, created an enduring legacy for its core leaders.

“Even while the core al-Qaida group may be in decline, al-Qaida-ism, the movement’s ideology, continues to resonate and attract new adherents,” Bruce Hoffman, director of the Security Studies Program at Georgetown University, wrote in a research paper earlier this year.

Bin Laden’s death,

Hoffman wrote, “left behind a resilient movement that, although seriously weakened, has been expanding and consolidating its control in new and far-flung locales.”

On Wednesday, State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said the U.S. has focused on al-Qaida’s affiliates, including the one based in Yemen, after targeting the terror network’s top leaders in Afghanistan and Pakistan.

“We’re not naive about the challenges we’re facing,” Psaki said. “We do think a threat still remains.”

“We’re intensifying our effort on affiliates,” she said.

“That’s part of what our focus is. And, yes, we’ve had some successes.”

Al-Zawahri, an Egyptian whose location is unknown, issues messages to followers every few months that are posted and circulated on jihadi websites. His latest, posted July 30, lashed out at Obama for the continued U.S. detention of terror suspects at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and for launching deadly drone attacks in Pakistan, Afghanistan, Yemen and other Muslim countries.

GRADE: Scandal puts focus on school grade system of a little more than a week last September, Bennett ordered his staff to find a way to get an A for Christel House, which he’d held up as a model for other charter schools.

“They need to understand that anything less than an A for Christel House compromises all of our accountability work,” Bennett wrote in a Sept. 12, 2012, email to then-chief of staff Heather Neal, who is now Gov. Mike Pence’s chief lobbyist.

In the following days, the school’s grade jumped from 2.9 to a 3.5, and, finally, a 3.75 on a 4-point scale.

Along the way, Bennett and his staff debated the legality of changing the grade for the school only and changing the public presentation of graphs to make a high B look like an A. At one point, Bennett suggested revising the cutoff for an A from a 3.51 to a 3.50. By Sept. 21, when grades were released for all the state’s schools, Christel House had a 3.75.

Leaders in the national education overhaul movement, who helped

build Bennett into a star following Indiana’s passage of sweeping education changes in 2011, flocked to his support in the wake of the scandal. Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush penned an op-ed for the Miami Herald in which he blamed political opponents for Bennett’s demise.

The scandal has put a new focus on school grading systems, pushed by Bush and other leaders as a means of holding schools accountable. The grades are used in part to determine school funding and teacher pay and to determine whether “failing” schools are turned over to charters for operation.

Critics, including the American Federation of Teachers, have said the scandal is proof that “accountability” systems are scams designed to move control of public schools to charter school operators bankrolling the national movement.

In his resignation speech, Bennett called on Indiana’s Republican-appointed inspector general to review the case.

Briefly • Union files appeal of Rodriguez’s suspension CHICAGO (AP) — The Major League Baseball Players Association formally appealed Alex Rodriguez’s 211-game suspension Wednesday, sending the case to an independent arbitrator.

Union spokesman Greg Bouris confirmed the appeal and said the players’ association had no further comment.

Rodriguez, who was back at third base and batting third for the New York Yankees against the Chicago White Sox on Wednesday night, said he had “no reaction” to the filing of the grievance.

“I don’t think any of us thought it was going to be any different,” Yankees manager Joe Girardi said.

“As far as having a reaction, it’s kind of what I expected.

It’s part of the process that was negotiated between MLB and the players’ association and you let it play out. I expect him to play a lot. We need him to help us.”

Rodriguez was suspended through the 2014 season on Monday when the league penalized 13 players following an investigation into Biogenesis of America, a shuttled Florida anti-aging clinic accused of distributing banned performance-enhancing drugs.

The other 12 players accepted 50-game suspensions, but Rodriguez said he planned to fight. Union head Michael Weiner said the punishment for the slugger was “way out of line.”

Rodriguez’s punishment was scheduled to begin Thursday, but he is allowed to keep playing until the grievance is heard by arbitrator Fredric Horowitz.

He isn’t expected to rule until November or December at the earliest.

Bruce 2-run homer powers Reds past Athletics CINCINNATI (AP) — Corky Miller got a chance to play a major league game in front of his sons on Wednesday, and the journeyman catcher made the most of the opportunity.

Jay Bruce hit a two-run homer and a run-scoring grounder for Cincinnati, which won consecutive games for the first time since July 24 in San Francisco and July 25 in Los Angeles. Joey Votto had two hits and Zack Cozart scored twice.

He could be headed back to the minors soon with Ryan Hanigan on his way back from a wrist injury.

“Bartolo didn’t have his best stuff,” manager Bob Melvin said.

“His velocity was down a little bit. He had a stomach virus in the bullpen. He’s had it before but worked through it.”

“It’s no excuse,” Colon said.

“I pitched bad. I wasn’t throwing strikes like I did before the All-Star game. The velocity was down a little, but it is no excuse.

Tony Stewart has surgery following Iowa crash KANNAPOLIS, N.C. (AP) — Tony Stewart told anyone who would listen why he continued racing anywhere, anytime, regardless of purse or crowd or car.

Even after he flipped five times last week, Stewart was quick to offer a stout defense for his short-track weeknight racing while some questioned if his extracurricular racing was putting his championship chances in NASCAR at risk.

Well, his championship chances are officially over for this season.

The three-time NASCAR champion broke his right leg Monday night at Southern Iowa Speedway in Oskaloosa, where he flipped his 360 winged sprint car while leading with five laps remaining in the 30-lap feature. He had surgery Tuesday on the upper and lower parts of his leg, and Stewart-Haas Racing said he’ll need a second surgery.

He remained hospitalized and

there was no timetable for his return to racing.

Max Papis was tabbed to replace Stewart this weekend in the No. 14 Chevrolet at Watkins Glen, where Stewart is a five-time winner and his streak of 521 consecutive starts will end.

The 42-year-old Stewart has wrecked three times in the last month in extracurricular racing, and the latest came a day after he finished ninth at Pocono in a NASCAR event to position himself 11th in the Sprint Cup standings with five races remaining to set the Chase for the championship field.

But Stewart had long refused to slow down his sprint car racing schedule, and passionately defended it following the June death of friend Jason Leffler in an accident at Bridgeport Speedway in Swedesboro, N.J. He was just as impassioned last Friday at Pocono when asked

I could, and I got some speed and momentum down the back and beat Jeff to Turn Two,” Kahne said. “That was kind of the race at that point. Once I cleared him getting into Two, from there it was just don’t make a mistake and try to run the quick lap on that last one.”

Gordon said he thought he made the right move by driving to the inside on the last restart, but Kahne was too strong on the outside.

“I thought I did everything I needed to do, and I looked in my mirror and I really thought that the inside lane got a good run on Kasey, so I thought all I needed to do was get in here and get the bottom and I’d be good,” Gordon said. “But, man, he got a killer run and blasted on the outside of me.

Caught me by surprise. In that case, and in that scenario, it just kills your momentum, so I feel fortunate to finish second.”

Gordon has five top-10 finishes in the past six races and he’s headed to Watkins Glen, where he has four career victories, but he said his Pocono finish is the best sign in a while that his team is Chase material.

“I feel like we’ve pulled together some decent finishes, but it hasn’t been pretty,” Gordon said. “[Pocono] was an impressive run for us internally. Just well-executed ... good [pit] stops. Everything just kind of went our way. I felt like we finally actually went out and earned that one.”

Kasey Kahne outduels Jeff Gordon after final restart to take the trophy at Pocono Raceway With the start of the Chase for the Sprint Cup just six weeks away, several likely contenders appear to be hitting their strides while others seem stuck in a rut of mediocre finishes.

At Pocono Raceway on Sunday, Jimmie Johnson once again appeared to have the car to beat, but he blew a right-front tire while leading and smacked the wall.

But in a show of strength that could be a deciding factor in the 10-race Chase, his team patched up the car and he drove it to a 13th-place finish, which allowed him to increase his points lead over second-place Clint Bowyer from 75 to 77 points.

And while Johnson was overcoming his setback, his Hendrick Motorsports teammates surged to the front, with Kasey Kahne outdueling Jeff Gordon to get the win, while Dale Earnhardt Jr. finished fifth. Brickyard 400 winner Ryan Newman, who runs Hendrick cars and engines, overcame slow pit work by his Stewart-Haas Racing team to finish fourth and move up one spot in the standings to 15th.

Kurt Busch, whose single-car Furniture Row Racing team has been plagued by inconsistency for much of the season, had a strong Pocono run, finishing third and moving up one spot in the standings to 13th, just 11 points out of 10th place, which is the final spot guaranteed a Chase berth after the regular season finale at Richmond International Raceway on Sept.

7.

Carl Edwards and Kevin Harvick held on to their points positions, Edwards third and Harvick fourth, but neither were factors at Pocono.

Edwards finished 11th despite a penalty for speeding on pit road, and Harvick was 17th.

For Kahne, the race was his to lose once Johnson crashed. He wound up leading a race-high 66 laps en route to his second win of the season, but he almost lost the win to Gordon, who passed him on the next-to-last restart.

The race’s final caution flag gave Kahne one more chance, and he drove to the outside of Gordon into Turn One and held on for the final two circuits.

“I had some help from Kurt Busch, pushed me down the frontstretch, and I just drove into [Turn] One as far as I felt

Kahne celebrates his win at Pocono Raceway on Sunday.

And he’s upbeat about his prospects for this week’s race on the road course at Watkins Glen, especially after a secondplace finish on the Cup circuit’s other road course at Sonoma, Calif.

“I felt like we learned a lot at the end of the second half of the race at Watkins Glen last year,” he said. “We kind of did a test more for Watkins Glen than we did for Sonoma prior to Sonoma, so I’m hoping that pays off.”

For Kahne, a Chase berth seems much more secure. He’s eighth in the standings, 18 points ahead of 11th-place Tony Stewart, but his two victories put him in good position to take a wild card berth should he drop out of the top 10.

He said his dominant Pocono victory “gives myself confidence and gives the whole team confidence. It closes the gap.”

And he said that making the Chase is very important.

“The Chase is what it’s all about in NASCAR,” he said. “You need to make it for the sponsors, for the teams.

“We’ve been right there on the edge with the way our summer went. So it was nice to get two wins. It gives us much more hope going in. We’ll just start a lot closer.”

Kahne’s crew chief, Kenny Francis, said the second victory makes his job easier for the next few weeks.

“It gives you a little more flexibility to be able to take more risks in the upcoming races,” he said. “You’ve already got your two wins. There is a good chance you’re going to make the Chase either way, so now you can maybe take a little more risk.”

“Wind Tunnel,” hosted by veteran broadcaster Dave Despain, will end its 11-year run on the SPEED channel, which is changing over to Fox Sports 1 and an emphasis on all sports instead of focusing on motorsports. “‘Wind Tunnel’ has been the most relevant and popular show on auto racing for 11 years, and Dave [Despain] has been the conscience,” Robin Miller, a veteran motor sports journalist and regular contributor to the show, said in a release from SPEED. “If you mattered, you were on ‘Wind Tunnel.’ It embraced all forms of motorsports and leaves a void that won’t be filled.”

“Maybe it sparked something then,” Stewart said back in 2011 of his Ohsweken win. He went on to say that while those around him feared for his safety racing sprinters, he feels Tony Stewart finished ninth at it was well worth the risks.

“It energized me,” he said. “It was like hitting a reset button.”

But those worried about Stewart’s safety have reason to be concerned. In May, Josh Burton was killed in a crash in Indiana. In June, one of Stewart’s fellow NASCAR drivers, Jason Leffler, died in a sprint car crash. And on Sunday, sprint car legend Kramer Williamson died from injuries suffered the night before when he flipped numerous times at Lincoln Speedway in Abbottstown, Pa. Williamson, who started racing in 1968, had been inducted into the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame in 2008 and the United Racing Co. Hall of Fame in 2010.

Tony Stewart, who spends as much of his spare time as possible racing sprint cars, flipped his sprinter five times last week while racing in a World of Outlaws event at Ohsweken Speedway in Ontario, Canada.

While his flip wasn’t especially nasty or all that uncommon for sprint car racers, it did get lots of attention because of Stewart’s primary job as a Sprint Cup Series driver and team owner.

At Pocono Raceway on Friday, Stewart explained to the assembled media, some of whom have called on him to curtail his extracurricular racing and concentrate on Cup, that the flip really was no big deal.

“You mortals have got to learn, you guys need to watch more sprint car videos and stuff,” he said. “It was not a big deal. It’s starting to get annoying this week about that.

“That was just an average sprint car wreck. When they wreck, they get upside down like that. That was not a big deal. I guarantee you there were 15 to 20 guys across the country that flipped just like that this weekend and were just fine just like we were.”

Stewart bounced back and finished fifth in the main event.

Ironically, it was at Ohsweken two years ago that Stewart won a World of Outlaws feature that started a win streak

“He ain’t no prima donna and life is short, and we don’t know how we are going to die or what’s going to happen,” Foyt said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press. “I just hate to see anybody badmouth Tony for anything he’s doing, and if they are, they are just jealous. People saying he’s putting his businesses at risk? I had three dealerships, people respected me.”

Although it sounds cliche, Foyt believes racers want to go out doing what they love.

“Tony is a true racer,” Foyt said. “That’s one thing I respect about him. A lot of them people go to NASCAR and become a kingpin in one type of car. Jeff Gordon and Kasey Kahne, they all were sprint car and midget cars drivers first, like Tony, and Tony still is a sprint car driver and it’s a shame he got hurt. But I don’t see where someone can condemn him for it.”

MAC hoping to build on banner season CHICAGO (AP) — In the last year, the Mid-American Conference has had a team in the Orange Bowl and a player picked No. 1 in the NFL draft.

Now, for an encore — how about a Heisman Trophy?

That may seem far-fetched, but Northern Illinois quarterback Jordan Lynch finished seventh in the voting last season, and he’s back to try to lead the Huskies to another banner year.

Northern Illinois played in the Orange Bowl on Jan. 1, and although the Huskies were beaten soundly, the MAC was celebrating again a short while later when Central Michigan offensive lineman Eric Fisher was the first pick in the draft.

“I think the conference is on

the rise, and a lot of great things are happening,” Lynch said.

“The whole Heisman campaign, Eric Fisher going No. 1 overall. … I think there’s great things going on, and I think the best is yet to come for this conference.”

That remains to be seen.

Northern Illinois has a new coach — Rod Carey led the Huskies in their bowl because predecessor Dave Doeren had taken the North Carolina State job. And since the Huskies lost to Florida State in the Orange Bowl by three touchdowns, the MAC champion might need an unbeaten record to repeat Northern Illinois’ feat of reaching a BCS bowl. Northern Illinois made it despite a loss in the regular season.

As for Lynch’s Heisman hopes, he threw for 3,138 yards and 25 touchdowns last season — while running for 1,815 yards and 19 TDs. Numbers like that — if he can repeat them — will get attention.

Six teams have won the MAC title in the last nine seasons, and the last three league championship games were down-to-the-wire thrillers.

Amid all that apparent parity, Northern Illinois is starting to look like a legitimate dynasty.

The Huskies are trying to become the first team to win three straight MAC titles since Marshall won four in a row from 1997-2000.

Including the last two conference title games, Northern

Illinois has won 17 straight against MAC opponents. The biggest threat to that streak this year may be a trip to Toledo in November.

As for the Huskies’ chances of going undefeated in the regular season, they’ll have to win three nonconference road games to do it — against Iowa, Idaho and Purdue.

P.J. Fleck, Western Michigan’s new coach, is the youngest in major college football at age 32. He took that title from Toledo’s Matt Campbell, who is exactly one year older.

Fleck is one of three new coaches in the MAC this year.

Carey and Kent State’s Paul Haynes are the others.

Elway: Denver Broncos ‘do look good on paper’ DENVER (AP) — John Elway says the Denver Broncos, still stinging from their playoff loss to the Baltimore Ravens in January, are primed for greatness in 2013 if they can just stay healthy and hungry.

Two of the biggest reasons for his optimism: Von Miller and Peyton Manning.

The Broncos executive vice president said he’s hopeful Miller won’t have to sit out all of September for violating the NFL’s drug-abuse policy. The All-Pro linebacker is having a terrific training camp while he appeals a pending four-game suspension.

Elway even called Miller, the first player he drafted, the most talented player he’s ever seen on either side of the ball.

He was equally effusive in

his praise of Manning, who is throwing the ball better and appears much more comfortable in his second season in Denver.

With the offseason addition of Wes Welker to the roster, Elway said he’s “truly jealous of the weapons that Peyton gets to throw to.”

After watching the four-time MVP throw the football with such authority this summer and then catching his hilarious new commercial with brother Eli for DirecTV this week, Elway noted that Manning’s pitches are strong this year both on and off the football field.

“Great video,” Elway said.

“But I will tell him today to stick to his day job.”

Elway made his remarks during a keynote address at an event held by the National

Sports Center for the Disabled on Wednesday at Sports Authority Field.

Manning’s right arm is noticeably thicker and his throws stronger now that he’s another year removed from a series of neck injuries and surgeries that affected a nerve that runs into his right triceps and cost him all of the 2011 season, his last in Indianapolis.

Manning was the Comeback Player of the Year last season when he led Denver to a 13-3 record and the AFC’s top seed before the Broncos lost 38-35 to the Ravens in double-overtime on Jan. 12, snapping their 11-game winning streak.

The Ravens went on to win the Super Bowl, but in an odd twist, those two teams will open the 2013 season not

in Baltimore but in Denver on Sept. 5 because baseball’s Orioles are playing at home that same day.

It’s the Broncos who are the trendy Super Bowl pick this year despite a series of embarrassing episodes including Miller’s troubles, the suspensions of Elway’s top two assistants for drunken driving arrests and the fax faux pas that led to Elvis Dumervil’s departure in free agency.

Elway compared the Broncos’ playoff loss to the Ravens last winter to Jacksonville’s upset of the well-rested Broncos in Denver in 1996 when they also were 13-3 and the AFC’s top-seeded team.

The Broncos bounced back that time to win the next two Super Bowls.

SPORTS BRIEFS • Wigged out Eli and Peyton rapping on new TV ad EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — Jay Z and 50 Cent had better watch out.

The rap world has a couple of wigged-out new stars — E-Z and $17.5-Mil. Haven’t heard of them?

Well, they’re known better on the football field.

Quarterbacks and Super Bowl MVPs Eli and Peyton Manning burst onto the music scene this week with a three-minute rap videotape in which P. Manning they promote “Football On Your Phone” for DirectTV. The commercial starts out with the Mannings sitting in barber chairs, wearing wigs that mimicked hair styles of the ‘60s and ‘70s. Eli has a frizzy, curly-haired mop and Peyton wore a straight, long-hair wig worthy of any rocker.

The brothers filmed the humorous commercial in one day in their native New Orleans, extolling the value of watching football games on a phone, joking at one point that someone was actually using his phone as a phone.

Broncos executive vice president John Elway saw the video and enjoyed the Manning’s performance.

“Great video,” said Elway, who will pay Peyton Manning $17.5 million to guide Denver’s offense this season. “But I will tell him today to stick to his day job.”

Indians reward Ryan Raburn with 2-year extension CLEVELAND (AP) — Ryan Raburn was rewarded Wednesday with a two-year, $4.85 million contract extension that includes a $3 million club option for 2016.

Released by the Detroit Tigers after last season, Raburn has had a major impact in his first year with the Cleveland Indians, who signed him to a minor league free agent contract in January.

Raburn is batting .277 with 13 homers — third most on the team — and 38 RBIs in 66 games. He’s made starts in right field (37), left (seven), second base (two) and designated hitter (five), and Indians manager Terry Francona has batted him everywhere but the No. 1 and 2 spot in the order.

Raburn has also been one of the Indians’ most clutch players. He entered Wednesday’s game batting .462 (12 of 26) with 19 RBIs with runners in scoring position and two outs.

Raburn was selected by Detroit in the 2001 draft.

Oden finalizes his signing with Heat MIAMI (AP) — Greg Oden has taken his physical, done a bit of house hunting in South Florida and signed on the dotted line.

Nearly four years after he last played, he’s officially back in the NBA. The former No. 1 overall pick signed his contract with the two-time defending NBA champion Miami Heat on Wednesday, the last in a series of formalities that needed to be completed before the team could finally announce the move.

Oden announced late last week that he was accepting Miami’s offer, one that will pay him about $1 million this coming year and includes a $1.1 million player option for the 2014-15 season.

Oden’s last NBA appearance was Dec. 5, 2009, for Portland against Houston. He went up to defend a layup attempt by the Rockets’ Aaron Brooks, fracturing his left kneecap on the play and doing so without even making contact with anyone. Oden collapsed to the floor in obvious agony, was wheeled off the floor after a delay, taken for surgery and the Blazers quickly announced that his season was over.

At the time, no one knew that the following three seasons were basically over as well.

Bears CB Hayden out for season with leg injury BOURBONNAIS, Ill. (AP) — Veteran Chicago cornerback Kelvin Hayden will miss the entire season after recently tearing his left hamstring in practice at Soldier Field.

Hayden will have surgery to repair the hamstring and will need six to eight months of rehab, Bears coach Marc Trestman said Wednesday. Hayden was injured in practice on Saturday night.

The 30-year-old Hayden has 12 career interceptions.

Second-year player Isaiah Frey will replace him in the nickel back spot in Friday’s preseason opener at Carolina.

Frey, a sixth-round draft pick out of Nevada, has been one of the surprises of training camp with a handful of forced turnovers.

O’Dell’s lead balloons to 9 shots at W.Va. Amateur WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W.Va. (AP) — Sam O’Dell shot a 3-under-par 69 to extend his lead to nine strokes at the West Virginia Amateur on Wednesday.

Barring a major meltdown, he’ll simply need to finish at the Old White TPC Course at The Greenbrier resort on Thursday to pick up his first win in a tournament he’s played since the mid-1990s.

Vienna’s Alan Cooke was at 2 under after shooting 74 on Wednesday.

Information about breastfeeding can be found at in.gov/isdh/25939.htm

Breastfeeding benefits babies, mothers, employers, taxpayers Gov. Mike Pence has proclaimed Indiana’s support for World Breastfeeding Week, which is the first week of August.

The state of Indiana allows a woman to breastfeed her child anywhere the law allows her to be. In addition, Indiana law provides that state and political subdivisions and employers with more than 25 employees “shall provide for reasonable paid breaks for an employee to express breast milk for her infant, make reasonable efforts to provide a room or other location, other than a toilet stall, where the employee can express breast milk in private and make reasonable efforts to provide for a refrigerator to keep breast milk that has been expressed.”

It takes most mothers much time and effort to become truly adept at breastfeeding. Mothers need education and support, beginning with expert instruction and encouragement prior to birth and in the hospital.

According to womenshealth.gov, a website provided by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, early breast milk is liquid gold. Known as liquid gold, colostrum is the thick yellow first breast milk that mothers make during pregnancy and just after birth. This milk is very rich in nutrients and antibodies to protect the baby.

Colostrum changes into what is called mature milk. By the third to fifth day after birth, this mature breast milk has the right amount of fat, sugar, water and protein to help the baby continue to grow. It provides all of the nutrients and antibodies the baby needs.

For most babies — especially premature babies — breast milk is easier to digest than formula.

The cells, hormones, and antibodies in breast milk protect babies from illness.

Formula cannot match the chemical makeup of human breast milk. In fact, among formula-fed babies, ear infections and diarrhea are more common. Formula-fed babies also have higher risks of a disease that affects the gastrointestinal tract in preterm infants, respiratory infections, asthma, obesity and Type 2 diabetes. Some research shows that breastfeeding can also reduce the risk of Type 1 diabetes, childhood leukemia and atopic dermatitis (a type of skin rash) in babies. Breastfeeding has also been shown to lower the risk of sudden infant death syndrome.

With breastfeeding, there are no bottles and nipples to sterilize. Formula and feeding supplies can more than $1,500 a year.

Breastfed babies are sick less often, which can lower health care costs.

Mothers and babies both benefit from the physical contact. It can help babies feel more secure, warm and comforted. The skin-toskin contact can boost the mother’s oxytocin, a calming hormone that helps milk flow.

In mothers, breastfeeding is linked to a lower risk of Type 2 diabetes, breast cancer, ovarian cancer and postpartum depression Breastfeeding mothers miss fewer days from work because their infants are sick less often.

Recent research shows that if 90 percent of U.S. families breastfed exclusively for six months, nearly 1,000 deaths among infants could be prevented annually. The U.S. would also save $13 billion per year because medical care costs are lower for fully breastfed infants than never-breastfed infants.

We thank the family members, friends, health care professionals, government officials and employers who encourage women in their decision to breastfeed.

Resume blunders from job-seekers bring chuckles Other interests: “Playing with my two dogs (They actually belong to my wife but I love the dogs more than my wife).”

This is actually a response a job-seeker gave on his resume.

For anyone seeking employment, a resume is a vital personal marketing tool. It’s a document used to present a person’s background and skills, usually in an effort to secure employment.

There are resume schools, resume classes and professional resume writers. It’s a billion dollar business helping people write resumes.

A resume is the first impression an employer gets of a job-seeker. Why should an employer arrange an interview with a job-seeker who submits a resume riddled with spelling, factual and grammatical errors?

Many years ago I applied for a high school English teaching position. I submitted a resume with a cover letter and was called to the assistant superintendent’s office for an interview. On his desk I noticed two orderly piles of resumes that he had received

for the teaching position. When I asked why two piles, he told me one pile had resumes with errors and the other did not.

Those with errors were eliminated.

Here are more resume blunders from the Bathroom LOL INSIDE Book by Jeff Kobus COMMENT Kreismer, Reyneke and Lori Walsh and mistakes Dennis Nartker resume websites: • “It’s best for employers that I not work with people.”

• “My goal is to be a meteorologist. But since I possess no training in meteorology, I suppose I should try stock brokerage.”

• “Time is very valuable, and it should always be used to achieve optimum results, and I believe it should not be played around with.”

• Hobbies: “Drugs and girls.”

•

• “Finished eighth in a class of ten.”

• Why interested in position: “To keep my parole officer from putting me back in jail.”

• “I’m intrested to here more about that. I’m working today in a furniture factory as a drawer.”

• Why should an employer hire you: “I bring doughnuts on Friday.”

• Hobbies: “Having a good time.”

• “Looking for a party time position with potential for advancement.”

• Languages: Speak English and Spinach.”

• Reason for leaving: “I thought the world was going to end.”

• Hobbies: “Enjoy cooking Chinese and Italians.”

• “I am about to enroll on a Business and Finance Degree with the Open University. I feel that this qualification will prove detrimental to me for future success.”

• “Let’s meet so you can ‘ooh’ and ‘aah’ over my experience.”

• “The company made me a scapegoat just like my previous

three employers.”

• “I have an excellent track record, although I’m not a horse.”

• “Wholly responsible for two failed financial institutions.”

These people are probably still looking for work.

Milestone noted Here’s a local sports milestone I learned about recently: Fort Wayne golf professional Scott Pieri shot a 63 at the par 72 Cobblestone Golf Course on Sunday, July 28, establishing a new course record.

He scored the 63 from the back tees at 6,976 yards. Holes No. 15 and No. 16 were lengthened last year, adding about 100 yards in total length from the back tees. He failed to birdie two of Cobblestone’s four Par 5s. Head professional Alan Moyer said the new record was announced because of the course changes and added length.

dedicated Internet system powered by fiber optics.

The staff was just awesome, making sure I was going to be able to work comfortably. They directed me to a couple different places where it would be quiet.

Quiet? I am not used to quiet. I am used to interruptions. I am used to noise, whether it is the banging of keyboards (I hope I wasn’t too loud, Carnegie patrons!) or the traffic outdoors or the construction at Cameron Memorial Community Hospital.

There are people constantly talking on the phone to sources. Or just talking. And so on.

In a library, where people are supposed to be quiet, you hear folks who whisper.

All the way across the room.

What a great place, Carnegie Public Library. I can’t say enough about the staff at Carnegie for accommodating me and allowing me to work some four hours Tuesday in order to get the paper put to bed.

It was the silver lining to an otherwise cloudy day at the office.

Now, if I can only figure out a way to sit in one of those comfy, overstuffed leather chairs with a keyboard, mouse and laptop and make it all work. I might end up faking fiber cuts!

What Others Say • Congress gets it right with student loan bill It’s a catch-22 for many Americans. They can’t afford a college education because they don’t have enough money. And they can’t make more money because they don’t have a college education.

The answer for many is student loans. They borrow money from the federal government, banking on gaining the near-future earning power to pay down their debt.

Some compile so much debt that they can’t pay their way out and finally have to file for bankruptcy. But many who borrow heavily for a college education do land better jobs

with better pay and eventually pay off their loans and continue on to a financially rewarding career.

Traditionally, student loans have been offered at reasonable rates. That is, before a faux pas by the federal government nearly forced interest rates so high that it would have meant almost certain financial ruin for loan-dependent college students from low-income families.

Six years ago, Congress lowered the interest rate on student loans to 3.4 percent.

That rate was set to expire last year, but lawmakers delayed action on re-establishing a rate in 2012, so that it wouldn’t become a presidential electionyear issue. The trouble started

this year, when legislators failed to establish a new rate.

Beginning July 1, the interest rates on federal student loans automatically doubled from 3.4 to 6.8 percent.

On Wednesday, after months of partisan bickering, the House of Representatives finally got it right, passing a bill that will establish the interest rate this year at 3.86 percent for undergraduate loans and 5.42 percent for graduate student loans. The bill, already approved by the U.S. Senate, will also grant relief to those who would have owed the exorbitantly high interest rates on loans taken out after July 1.

More importantly, the bill, which President Obama

is expected to sign into law, prescribes a new method for setting the interest rate. Instead of Congress reviewing and modifying the rate yearly, it will be figured by a formula based on market interest rates. The bill also includes a provision for protecting student loans from spikes in the market.

A recent report issued by student loan giant Sallie Mae shows that students are increasingly dependent on loans to get a college education. With tuition rates and other college costs spiraling higher and higher, the new law will offer at least a measure of protection against further gouging of students.

Contractor wants to fire wife, save marriage DEAR ABBY: I am a self-employed general contractor, and have been for the most part successful.

My wife, “Janine,” worked in the mortgage industry, but because of the economic downturn hasn’t worked in three years.

After her mom provided some financial help to my business eight months ago, Janine decided she wanted to work for me doing the office work and bookkeeping. The problem is, she doesn’t show up until late afternoon and stays only a short while. She doesn’t get any work done, and then she leaves. She constantly rushes to get the bills paid at the very last minute.

Although my wife is college-educated, she really can’t handle the job. Her work ethic is terrible. I started my company and I’m the boss. When Janine doesn’t agree with me about

and inappropriate. If her being in your office is connected to the money her mother loaned you, my advice is to repay it immediately before your wife’s “dabbling” as a business partner disrupts the business any further.

You may love Janine, but if the only thing holding your marriage together is allowing her to play at working in the office, then I’m sorry to say you don’t have much of a marriage.

Wake up and smell the coffee. You need an assistant and your wife needs something else to occupy her time.

THE BORN LOSER BY ART & CHIP SANSOM

Infant hip dysplasia is treatable condition The ball of the femur slips in and out of the socket because the ligaments that hold the two bones together are very loose or because the cup-shaped socket is not deep enough. This condition usually is present at birth, but it can develop after birth, during ASK infancy or DOCTOR K. childhood.

Usually just one hip is Dr. Anthony affected, but in about percent Komaroff 20 of children with this condition it affects both hips.

The condition is more common in babies who were breech deliveries.

It also seems to run in

•

families. It happens more often in little girls than in little boys, and more often in firstborn infants. We don’t know why.

Doctors routinely check for developmental dysplasia of the hip in newborns and at follow-up well-baby visits.

If the doctor feels unusual movement of the hip, he or she will use ultrasound or X-rays to confirm the diagnosis.

Left untreated, developmental dysplasia of the hip can lead to a shortened leg, arthritis, difficulty walking and long-term pain. But with early treatment, most children can walk normally and have normal hip function.

Treatment depends on the child’s age: • Newborns usually wear a special device, such as the Pavlik harness or the Frejka splint. These devices keep the top of the femur in the socket the right way.

Almanac •

DEAR DOCTOR K: My baby has developmental dysplasia of the hip. What is this? How will it be treated?

DEAR READER: Because I’m not a pediatrician, I haven’t seen a baby with developmental dysplasia of the hip since I was in medical school. But I talked with pediatrician colleagues here at Harvard Medical School and refreshed my memory.

Our hips are designed to support our full weight while allowing movement in all directions. To accomplish this, the rounded top of the thigh bone (femur) fits into a cup-shaped socket in the pelvis called the acetabulum.

The “ball” of the femur sits inside the socket. In developmental dysplasia of the hip, the ball at the top of the femur moves in and out of the socket either partway or all the way. That’s not supposed to happen: It makes the hip unreliable in supporting the baby’s weight.

something, she yells so loud I’m sure the people who work next door can hear her. I have talked to her about this, and we have fought about it. I tried to fire her but she says if she can’t work for my business, DEAR we might well get ABBY as divorced.

I never wanted a Jeanne Phillips partner and didn’t ask for one, and now I feel trapped with an employee from hell. I love Janine and don’t want a divorce. How can I get her to quit and still stay married? — NEEDS HELP IN CALIFORNIA DEAR NEEDS: Your wife’s behavior is immature

The hip ligaments gradually tighten and the hip joint usually stabilizes.

• For infants age 1 month to 6 months, the doctor will try a harness or splint. If these devices don’t help, the doctor will consider gently (and nonsurgically) putting the head of the femur in place while the child is under anesthesia. This is called a closed reduction. The child then wears a body cast (spica cast) until the hip joint is normal.

• Most children age 6 months to 2 years can be treated with closed reduction and a spica cast.

Some require open surgery.

• For children older than 2 years, surgery is often needed, followed by a spica cast.
