MSHP

Patrol seeking information in consumer Mtn. View fraud investigation The Missouri State Highway Patrol, in conjunction with the Missouri Department of Revenue Compliance and Investigation Bureau and the National Insurance Crime Bureau, have been investigating a series of consumer frauds related to the purchase and subsequent sale of motor vehicles by a man and woman residing in the Kansas City metropolitan area. The couple purchase a vehicle, typically from the Craigslist Internet auction site. The vehicle’s mileage reading is altered and the vehicle is placed back on Craigslist. The two suspects pose as the previous owners of the vehicle. The investigation revealed approximately 48 vehicle purchases/sales within the past year. It is possible not all the transactions involve an odometer rollback. Investigators are seeking to discuss these transactions with the sellers and purchasers of these vehicles. There has been no indication of impropriety on behalf of the sellers or purchasers, and See MSHP on Page 7

Big changes are coming to the emergency room (ER) at Mercy St. Francis Hospital. With the help of a private donor, Mercy plans to make a major expansion inside its ER, including an upgraded triage area, remodeled front lobby with environmentally-friendly features, new additions to patient rooms, a more secure medicine room and a revamped nurses station. “From patient satisfaction to better security, this project is going to be a win-win for everyone,” said Roger Strosnider, director of facilities at See Expansion on Page 7

Rates on the rise

20% across the board - renters face mandatory deposits by Laura Wagner Mountain View Standard News laura@mvstandard.com

Electric rates will increase for Mtn. View residents after council approved the increase during the November council meeting. The 20 percent increase was approved with a motion made by Councilman Paul O’Brien and seconded by Council-

Liberty Sports

man Larry David. The increase will go into effect on January 1, 2016 but residents will not see the increase on their electric bill until March 1, 2016. Council has deliberated on the topic of increasing the city’s electric rates for the past few months. With Sho-Me Power, the city’s current supplier, requested an upgrade in a letter dated

December 2011 for the city to switch from a 4,160 voltage to 13,200. The city will also begin negotiations with Sho-Me Power in 2017 for the purchase of power. Negotiations directly with the electric company are a result of past City of Mtn. View Administration who chose to buy directly from Sho-Me Power versus joining the option at that time of joining a

consortium made up of numerous city municipalities throughout the state. The increase in electric rates for city residents will offset the rising costs the city is seeing from Sho-Me Power as well as beginning the process for upgrading the city’s electrical infrastructure.

Epic battle ends in heartbreak by Brian Ingalls Mountain View Standard News brian@mvstandard.com

For all but 52 seconds of the game, the Liberty Eagles were about to make history. A touchdown coming on a hook and ladder play from Andrew Raider to Cale Cornman gave the Eagles a 7-6 lead over the undefeated, four-time State Champion Lamar Tigers just before halftime, and Liberty kept that lead until the Tigers put together two big plays to go up 14-7 with under a minute left in the game. Even then, the Eagles nearly came back, getting within 12 yards of the end-zone before time ran out, and the season officially came to an end with another loss to Lamar. This one was different than Hook and Ladder!

If Washington was more like Missouri, America would be a lot better off. This is something I have always thought, but over my first couple years in Congress it has become more and more true. Here in Missouri, things like family, liberty, personal and fiscal responsibility, and good ol’ common sense are held true, yet they are simply missing from our nation’s capital. I was lucky enough to grow up right here in southern Missouri. As a Salem native, early on I learned values such as hard work and perseverance – cutting brush, hauling hay, picking up rocks, mowing lawns, and scraping parts at my dad’s auto shop – if you didn’t have blisters on your hands you weren’t giving it your all. That type of hard work shaped me into the person I am today. While now my job takes me out to our nation’s capital – I always try for the first flight home and the latest flight back to D.C. each week so that I can spend as much time as possible talking with the folks I am honored to represent. On Sundays I enjoy attending my home church, Grace Community, and seeing the same faces I have come to know over the years; it’s a true sense of home. I have never felt comfortable in Washington and I am not sure I ever will. I will never call Washington home and each night there I sleep on an air mattress in my office so that I can work late, rise early, and return to my true home as soon as possible. Sitting in a Congressional hearing, reviewing legislation, or casting a vote on the House Floor I am always mindful of the folks back home. How will this law affect them? How would their lives change? Are we enhancing their freedoms and liberties as an American? The people of southern and southeast Missouri are family-focused, hardworking, and they just want the government off their back and out of their business. They are the machinists, nurses, farmers, and teachers I meet when I travel throughout the district. I was recently in Dexter, Missouri, speaking to business leaders about topics including the confusing tax code, burdensome regulations, and the persistent war on small business and rural America. They all just want Washington to stop interfering, get out of the way, and let them grow their businesses and communities. Simply put, we need Washington to function a lot more like Missouri – a balanced budget amendment, looking each other in the eye, and having someone’s word and handshake be binding. Washington has lost its way. We have a record high debt, freedoms are being eroded, and folks wonder if America is ever going to get back on track. Across the country American’s worry about stagnant wages and finding a job. Every day, families are struggling to keep up with rising health care, food, and energy costs. In the Show-Me State, we are taught that if we put hard work, living within our means, and taking care of family in focus and in our hearts, we can be proud of the life we lead. I hope that during my time in Washington I can instill some of those same lessons and values in the leaders I serve alongside – helping correct the direction of Washington and the dysfunction in your government.

Addressing the Unauthorized Immigration Issue

There were an estimated 11.5 million unauthorized immigrants living in the United States in 2011 according to a population report from the Department of Homeland Security. The survey defines an unauthorized resident immigrant population as “all foreign-born non-citizens who are not legal residents… unauthorized residents either entered the United States without inspection or were admitted temporarily and stayed past the date they were required to leave.” A significant amount of the U.S. immigrant population has entered the country illegally and continues to pose problems for the lawful residents of our country. I see this as a problem. This coming session I will be introducing legislation making it a class B felony for any unauthorized alien to re-enter, attempt to re-enter or be found in Missouri after he or she has been removed from the country. Let me be clear — I am not against immigrants coming to America to better their lives. Our great country was built by immigrants, and the American Dream is still as worthy a goal as ever for foreigners looking to create a life here. As long as people entering the country follow the law and go through the appropriate measures to gain citizenship, then I believe they do contribute to our economy, culture and society as a whole. What I do take issue with, however, are the millions of unauthorized immigrants who have entered the United States illegally, many of whom have malicious and criminal aspirations. A report published by the Pew Hispanic Center estimates there were 70,000 unauthorized immigrants living in Missouri in 2011. This is a problem that needs to be addressed and my proposed legislation will become part of a solution to combat this issue. I believe my upcoming Senate bill is especially pertinent for our state this year as the issue of undocumented immigration continues to mount in importance across the nation. Just this past Monday, a federal appeals court ruled against President Obama’s plan to shield unauthorized immigrants from deportation, according to a Washington Post article by David Nakamura. The blocked executive action would have allowed undocumented parents of U.S. citizens to remain in the country and receive temporary work permits, rather than be deported for breaking immigration laws. I appreciate your support, and will continue to fight for legal Missouri workers. I feel strongly about ensuring the inherent rights each and every lawful Missourian is entitled to and will take action against harmful unauthorized immigration within our great state. As always, I appreciate it when groups from around Missouri and from our community back home come to visit me at the Capitol. If you would like to arrange a time to come and visit me in Jefferson City, or if you ever have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact my Capitol office at (573) 751-1882.

Pinkel announced retirement, Tigers beat BYU by Benjamin Herrold Sports Columnist At the end of a tumultuous week of protests and resignations for the University of Missouri, coach Gary Pinkel announced he would retire at the end of the season. It was a stunning move, as Pinkel has been the head coach at Missouri since Bill Clinton was President. Pinkel was diagnosed this spring with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, and although he says he feels fine, he wanted to focus on family and his health. He said he made this decision before the protests on campus, but he acknowledged the “daily grind” of coaching. At very least, this challenging season on the field and having to suspend his starting quarterback twice could have tipped the stress scales toward retirement.

Mizzou (5-5, 1-5 in SEC play) responded by earning Pinkel a 20-16 win over Brigham Young (7-3) last Saturday at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City. Freshman quarterback Drew Lock, from the Kansas City area, had his best start since taking over for the suspended Maty Mauk. Center Evan Boehm, also from Kansas City, made his 50th consecutive start. The crowd chanted Pinkel’s name late in the game, and the old coach danced on the field with his players afterward. It was a nice moment at a fitting site, as Pinkel’s star maybe shone brightest on another November night at Arrowhead, in 2007, when the Tigers beat arch rival Kansas to ascend to the No. 1 ranking in the nation. Pinkel could be grouchy with the media, but he gave glimpses of humanity and

humility, especially in his later seasons. He had his flaws, famously the 2011 drunk driving arrest, but he was also involved in numerous charitable efforts, such as the local food bank. Pinkel never won the conference championship he so wanted for Missouri, the program he built and loved. But on an Atlanta night after one of those four conference title game losses, riding a train back to my hotel, it was clear to me that even if that never happened for Gary, he had still done an incredible job at Missouri. Above all, he stayed. For 15 years, he kept building the program, winning more games than any football coach in Missouri history. He gave Tiger fans joyful moments we’ll never forget. His stubbornness was also a persistence to keep rowing, keep chopping away, lifting Missouri to higher rankings, a new conference and a bigger stadium. Now, will Pinkel get one more bowl game at Missouri? The Tigers need to win one of their last two games and will be the underdog in both. First is Saturday’s home game with surging Tennessee (6:15 p.m. on ESPN2). The Volunteers (6-4, 3-3 in SEC) have won three straight and four of five after a tough start to the season. Led by quarterback Josh Dobbs and running back Jalen Hurd, Tennessee is a strong test for Missouri’s defense. The crowd at Faurot Field will likely be fired up for Pinkel’s last home game, and the Tigers will need all the extra boost they can get to upset the Vols.

How to Guard Against Deadly Aortic Aneurysms Dear Savvy Senior, My father died several years ago, at the age of 76, from a stomach aneurysm, which now has me wondering. What are my risk factors of getting this, and what can I do to protect myself, as I get older? Just Turned 60 Dear 60, Stomach aneurysms, also known as “abdominal aortic aneurysms,” are very dangerous and the third leading cause of death in men over 60. They also tend to run in families, so having had a parent with this condition makes you much more vulnerable yourself. An abdominal aortic aneurysm (or AAA) is a weak area in the lower portion of the aorta, which is the major artery that carries blood from the heart to the rest of the body. As blood flows through the aorta, the weak area bulges like a balloon and can burst if it gets too big, causing life-threatening internal bleeding. In fact, nearly 80 percent of AAAs that rupture are fatal, but the good news is that more than nine out of 10 that are detected early are treatable. Who’s At Risk? Around 200,000 people are diagnosed with AAAs each year, but estimates suggest that another 2 million people may have it but not realize it. The factors that can put you at increased risk are: • Smoking: Ninety percent of people with an AAA smoke or have smoked. This is the number one risk factor and one you can avoid. • Age: Your risk of getting an AAA increases significantly after age 60 in men, and after age 70 in women. • Family history: Having a parent or sibling who has had an AAA can increase your risk to around one in four. • Gender: AAAs are five times more likely in men than in women. • Health factors: Atherosclerosis, also known as hardening of the arteries, high blood pressure and high cholesterol levels also increase your risk. Detection and Treatment Because AAAs usually start small and enlarge slowly, they rarely show any symptoms, making them difficult to detect. However, large AAAs can sometimes cause a throbbing or pulsation in the abdomen, or cause abdominal or lower back pain. The best way to detect an AAA is to get a simple, painless, 10-minute ultrasound screening test. All men over age 65 that have ever smoked, and anyone over 60 with a first-degree relative (father, mother or sibling) who has had an AAA should talk to their doctor getting screened. You should also know that most health insurance plans cover AAA screenings, as does Medicare to beneficiaries with a family history of AAAs, and to men between the ages of 65 and 75 who have smoked at least 100 cigarettes during their life. If an AAA is detected during screening, how it’s treated will depend on its size, rate of growth and your general health. If caught in the early stages when the aneurysm is small, it can be monitored and treated with medication. But if it is large or enlarging rapidly, you’ll probably need surgery. AAA Protection While some risk factors like your age, gender and family history are uncontrollable, there are a number of things you can do to protect yourself from AAA. For starters, if you smoke, you need to quit – see smokefree.gov or call 1-800-QUIT-NOW for help. You also need to keep tabs on your blood pressure and cholesterol levels, and if they are high you need to take steps to lower them through diet, exercise and if necessary, medication.

Football For the first time since these two teams met in the playoffs five years ago, the Eagles were every bit a match for the Tigers. Liberty held Lamar to 138 total yards in the first half, and held the run-oriented Tigers to just 202 total rushing yards for the game. The Tigers finished with 60 yards passing, 45 of those coming on the second to last play of Lamar’s final drive that ended with a 10-yard touchdown run by quarterback Stuart McKarus to give the Tigers a 14-7 lead with 52 seconds remaining. The Liberty offense nearly responded, finding some big plays of their own to reach the Tiger’s 12-yard line with five seconds left. It was the third time in the second half that

From Page One Liberty had threatened to score. A controversial interception ruling by the officials on a pass to Brenton Bush ended one drive, and an incomplete pass on fourth down at the Lamar 22-yard line ended the second. The biggest two plays came on Liberty’s furious, final drive, however as the Tigers managed to break up the final two passes from the 12-yard line to escape with a seven-point victory. It was the first time since 2012 that Lamar had scored less than 20 points in a game. The first quarter ended scoreless as both team’s defenses came to play. For the Eagles, Cale Cornman terrorized the Tigers’ running backs as Liberty stopped Lamar on downs, and forced the Tigers

to do something they had rarely done in a game this season: Punt. Liberty put together a drive with four first downs as the first quarter ended and the second quarter began. The drive, which started at the Liberty 13yard line, began with a hook and ladder play on a pass to Xander Marshall who caught the ball and lateralled immediately to Cale Cornman. It was the same play Carl Junction had used to defeat the Lamar Tigers last year, the last time Lamar had lost a game. Liberty used it for a 17-yard gain to reach their 30-yard line. Pruett ran the ball for another first down, and on fourth and one from mid-field, another run by Pruett gave the Eagles a first down inside Lamar territory. Liberty went to the air as Pruett passed to Marshall for nine yards, and Raider for three more for a first-down at the Tigers 36-yard line, but that’s where the drive would stall after a third down pass fell incomplete and Liberty punted. The Tigers found some momentum on their next possession, thanks especially to a 20yard run that could have been much more if not for a saving tackle by Cornman. Once inside Eagles territory the Tigers pounded the ball to the threeyard line, before MaKarus plowed into the end-zone for 6-0 Lamar lead with 4:22 left in the first half. Liberty’s offense took over at their own 20-yard line following the kickoff, and once again started putting firstdowns together. A draw play to Koel Orchard for nine yards, and a run by Pruett for six more gave the Eagles a first at the 35-yard line. Two plays later,

Pruett rolled out and scrambled for 14 yards, and Marcos Rodriguez followed that play by rumbling for 11 yards and a first down at the Lamar 35yard line. Facing a third-and-3 at the Lamar 28, Pruett passed to Marshall who stretched out to catch the ball for eight yards and another first-down. After two incompletions and a draw play that went nowhere, the hook and ladder play to Cornman on fourth down gave the Eagles a 7-6 halftime lead. That’s where it stayed for the third quarter, but not without a controversial call by the officials to stop a Liberty drive. Liberty’s first possession started at the four-yard line, but the Eagles put together a drive that crossed mid-field before a stop on third down forced the Eagles to punt. As it turned out the punt by Pruett was one of the better plays of the day, pinning the Tigers on their four-yard line. Liberty’s defense held, and the Tigers were forced to punt right back giving the Eagles prime field position at the Lamar 46-yard line. The Eagles picked up a first and drove to the Lamar 27-yard line, but a second down pass to Bush in the end-zone ended in a jump ball as both players came down with it. Lamar’s Anthony Wilkerson eventually out-wrested Bush for the ball, and after the officials talked it over, they ruled the play an interception and a touchback for Lamar. Liberty’s defense returned the favor on Lamar’s next possession after a big hit by Adam Shaw popped the ball lose and Marshall recovered near midfield. As the fourth-quarter be-

Defense! 200lb fullback Danny Embree (32) gets upended by Brenton Bush (8) during Saturday’s State Quarterfinal game between Liberty and Lamar. The Eagles defense held the Tigers to just 202 total rushing yards. (Photo: Standard/Wagner) gan, Liberty was driving again on the Tigers’ side of the field, but a fumble by the Eagles ended Liberty’s chance. The Eagles would get two more shots. The first came on a drive that started at the Lamar 36-yard line after an ill-advised attempt by the Tigers to go for it on fourth down on their own 45 resulted in a sack by Orchard. Liberty picked up a first down, but with 2:36 to go in the game, an incomplete pass on fourth and seven gave the Tigers the ball 78-yards away from the end-zone. The Tigers went to their seldom used passing game, mixing it in with runs to reach their 46-yard line with just over a minute remaining. That’s when McKarus rolled out and found a wide-open receiver for a 45-yard gain to the Eagles 10-yard line. With 52 seconds left, McKarus scored on the next play and Lamar took a 14-7 lead after converting the two-pointer.

The Eagles nearly pulled off the comeback however as Pruett hit Raider on the Eagles first play for 51-yards. Raider made a diving, stretching catch to give Liberty the first down at the Lamar 37-yardline. A 17-yard pass to Bush two plays later set the Eagles up at the 20-yard line, and another pass for eight yards gave the Eagles a chance from the 12-yard line with 5 seconds remaining. It was the same sort of desperation defensive stand the Eagles and Lamar Tigers found themselves in back in 2010, only this time it was Lamar trying to hold on. The first pass was in and out of the hands of the receiver in the corner of the end-zone. That gave Liberty one more shot with 0.4 seconds, and the Tigers managed to break up the pass as it arrived. The officials let the contact go without a flag, and the Liberty comeback fell just that short.
