LANSING (AP) — A Michi-gan senator apologized Thurs-day for putting false informa-tion about the sighting ofwolves outside a day care cen-ter in his resolution urgingCongress to strip gray wolves ofendangered species protections.Sen. Tom Casperson, R-

Escanaba, acknowledged on theSenate floor that his 2011 reso-lution included fiction.“I was mistaken, I am

accountable, and I am sorry,”Casperson said. “Words matter.Accuracy matters. Especiallyhere, with a topic that is soemotional and is so importantto so many, especially thosewhose way of life is beingchanged in my district.”According to MLive.com, an

Ironwood woman said she sawone wolf on her lawn in 2010

while she was caring for chil-dren inside. Lori Holm said shescreamed and it fled.The resolu-

Community College’s Construction Technol-ogy program is ahead of schedule this fall.Students have been busy working on a

ranch-style home on two levels with 3,500square feet in north Bessemer.GCC students are enrolled, along with

high school students from Wakefield-Marenisco, Bessemer and Ironwood in theGogebic-Ontonagon Intermediate SchoolDistrict’s vocational building trades pro-gram.“At this point, the students have complet-

ed the foundation work, rough framing andthe roof,” said instructor Ray Niemi. Theyare ahead of schedule, as the goal was tocomplete the roof by mid-November. “Their hard work and extra effort have

brought the project to this point,” Niemisaid,This week students began working with

the electrical, mechanical and plumbingsubcontractors. When building for a privateowner, all subcontracts for the home gothrough the owner, while Niemi managesthe delivery of materials and estimates.

“The goal by the end of the semester,which is mid-December, is to have the homeenclosed with doors and windows so we canbegin heating the structure, which is ontrack,” said Niemi.Niemi said Todd Hamel, Mt. Zion opera-

tions supervisor, provided the telescopingbucket truck for setting the trusses earlierthis fall. “Without his help, we would not beat the point we are today,” Niemi said.Completion of the house is set for the first

week in May. An open house for the commu-nity to view the project will be set.

Michigan graded ‘C’ on pre-term birth rateWhile Michigan lowered its pre-term birth

rate, giving more babies a healthy start in life,the state received only a grade of “C” on a 2012report card issued by the March of Dimes. Michigan’s 2012 pre-term birth rate was 11.8

percent, down from 12 percent in 2011.“Too many continue to be born too soon,

before their lungs, brains or other organs arefully developed,” said Sonia Hassan, M.D., asso-ciate dean for Maternal, Perinatal and ChildHealth at Wayne State University School ofMedicine.The March of Dimes is supporting implemen-

tation of universal cervical length screening and

vaginal progesterone, as well as hospital effortsto end early elective deliveries that will helpwomen have full-term pregnancies and healthybabies.Michigan is part of a national six-year trend

toward improved pre-term birth rates. Onreport card, 31 states, Puerto Rico and the Dis-trict of Columbia saw improvement in pre-termbirth rates between 2011 and 2012. Nationwide, the largest declines in prema-

ture birth occurred among babies born at 34

BERLIN (AP) — U.S. militarydocuments are deepening themystery surrounding the morethan 1,400 artworks found in aMunich apartment.In the chaotic aftermath of

World War II, the American mili-tary seized 20 boxes of art fromGerman dealer Hildebrand Gurlittin Aschbach in December 1945,according to documents located byThe Associated Press in the U.S.National Archives in Washington.Gurlitt had worked closely

with the Nazi regime in the1930s to sell art it considered“degenerate” to fill its war cof-fers.American investigators at the

time expressed doubts aboutGurlitt’s claims to the works, butthey eventually decided that inmost cases he was the rightfulowner. So on Dec. 15, 1950, theU.S. returned 206 items to him:115 paintings, 19 drawings and72 “various other objects.”At least three of the artworks

documented by the Americanshave now re-surfaced, found hid-den in the Munich apartment ofGurlitt’s son, 80-year-old Cor-nelius Gurlitt, during a tax eva-sion probe that German prosecu-tors announced earlier this week.The three paintings that the

Americans returned to Cornelius’father in 1950 and which haveshowed up in the Munich troveare Max Liebermann’s “Two Rid-ers on the Beach;” Otto Dix’s self-portrait and an allegorical paint-ing by Marc Chagall.Also found in the son’s apart-

ment were paintings, drawings,engravings, woodcuts and printsby Henri Matisse, Pablo Picasso,Pierre-Auguste Renoir, OskarKokoschka, and leading Germanartists Dix, Liebermann andErnst Ludwig Kirchner.Prosecutors gave few further

details about the overall collection.

Still, they said they found evidencethat at least one item in the Munichapartment — a Henri Matissepainting of a sitting woman — wasstolen by the Nazis from a Frenchbank in 1942.Christoph Zuschlag, an art

historian at the University ofKoblenz, said the American doc-uments indicated U.S. investiga-tors suspected right after the warthat Gurlitt may have been inpossession of looted art.He said if German authorities

published a full list of the find atthe apartment, then experts coulddetermine more quickly whetherGurlitt was the rightful owner.“As a historian, I have to say pic-

tures and information about all theart has to be published onlineimmediately,” he said. “A wholeteam of experts should work on thisdiscovery and try to answer all theremaining open questions.”German prosecutors who are

pursuing the tax case against Cor-nelius Gurlitt — whose where-abouts are currently unknown —said this week they had “concreteevidence” the artworks found in hisapartment included both “degener-ate art” seized from German muse-ums and other works that mayhave been taken from individuals.Museums, galleries and the

heirs to those individuals, likelyJewish collectors forced to give upor sell their art at rock-bottomprices, could now have claims.The Conference on Jewish

Material Claims Against Ger-many, which administers resti-tution claims from victims ofNazi crimes, said the quickestand most efficient way to clearup any doubts would be for pros-ecutors to release a complete list.Spokeswoman Hillary Kessler-

Godin said the Claims Conferencealready has an online database of20,000 looted objects based on theNazis’ own records that is search-able by owner, artist and otherkeywords. She said that could beeasily used to determine if thereare any claims on the Gurlitt col-lection.“Our experts believe that a

number of the works found inMunich could be in this database,”Kessler-Godin said in an email.“Keeping the list a secret hindersthe process of expeditious restitu-tion.”

MANILA, Philippines (AP) —One of the most powerfultyphoons ever recorded slammedinto the Philippines early Friday,and one weather expert warned,“There will be catastrophic dam-age.”The U.S. Navy’s Joint

Typhoon Warning Center shortlybefore Typhoon Haiyan’s landfallsaid its maximum sustainedwinds were 195 mph, with gustsup to 235 mph.“195-mile-per-hour winds,

there aren’t too many build-ings constructed that can with-stand that kind of wind,” saidJeff Masters, a former hurri-cane meteorologist who ismeteorology director at theprivate firm Weather Under-ground.Masters said the storm had

been poised to be the strongesttropical cyclone ever recorded atlandfall. He warned of catas-trophic damage.Local authorities reported

having troubles reaching col-leagues in the landfall area.The local weather bureau

had a lower reading on thestorm’s power, saying its speedat landfall in Eastern Samarprovince’s Guiuan township had

sustained winds at 147 milesper hour, with gusts of 170mph. The bureau takes mea-sures based on longer periods oftime.Authorities in Guiuan could

not immediately be reachedfor word of any deaths or dam-age, regional civil defensechief Rey Gozon told DZBBradio. Forecaster MarioPalafox with the nationalweather bureau said it hadlost contact with its staff inthe landfall area.The storm was not expected to

directly hit the flood-prone capi-tal, Manila, further north.The National Disaster Risk

Reduction and ManagementCouncil said more than 125,000people had been evacuated fromtowns and villages in thetyphoon’s path.Typhoon Haiyan’s wind

strength at landfall had beenexpected to beat out HurricaneCamille, which was 190 mph atlandfall in the United States1969, Masters said.The only tiny bright side is

that it’s a fast-moving storm, soflooding from heavy rain —which usually causes the mostdeaths from typhoons in the

Philippines — may not be as bad,Masters said.“The wind damage should be

the most extreme in Phillipineshistory,” he said.The storm later will be a

threat to both Vietnam andLaos and is likely to be amongthe top five natural disastersfor those two countries, Masterssaid. The storm is forecast tobarrel through the Philippines’central region Friday and Sat-urday before blowing towardthe South China Sea over theweekend, heading toward Viet-nam.President Benigno Aquino

III on Thursday warned peopleto leave high-risk areas, includ-ing 100 coastal communitieswhere forecasters said thestorm surge could reach up to23 feet. He urged seafarers tostay in port.Aquino ordered officials to

aim for zero casualties, a goaloften not met in an archipelagolashed by about 20 tropicalstorms each year, most of themdeadly and destructive. Haiyanis the 24th such storm to hit thePhilippines this year.The president also assured

the public of war-like prepara-tions: three C-130 air force cargoplanes and 32 military heli-copters and planes on standby,along with 20 navy ships.“No typhoon can bring Fil-

ipinos to their knees if we’ll beunited,” he said in a televisedaddress.

Strongest typhoon of the year slams Philippines

reduce, reuse, recycle

Canceled policies couldbe a plus for new markets WASHINGTON (AP) —

Insurance cancellations are fuel-ing a political backlash againstPresident Barack Obama andDemocrats supporting his healthcare overhaul.The president apologized

Thursday for the turmoil someconsumers are going through,but there may yet be a silver lin-ing as far as the law itself.It’s Economics 101, a little-

noticed consequence of a contro-versial policy decision. And thereare winners and losers.Millions of people who cur-

rently buy their own healthinsurance coverage are losing itnext year because their plansdon’t meet requirements of thehealth care law. But experts saythe resulting shift of those peopleinto the new health insurancemarkets under Obama’s lawwould bring in customers alreadyknown to insurers, reducing theoverall financial risks for eachstate’s insurance pool.That’s painful for those who

end up paying higher premiumsfor upgraded policies. But itcould save money for the taxpay-ers who are subsidizing the newcoverage.“Already-insured people who

do roll over will improve the riskpool, not hurt it,” said DavidAxene, a California-based actu-arial consultant for health plans,hospitals, government programsand employers.Compared to the uninsured,

people with coverage are lesslikely to have a pent-up need formedical services, he explained.They may have already had thatknee replacement instead of hob-bling around on a cane. They’realso more likely to have seen adoctor regularly.“The current individual mar-

ket enrollees are definitely a

good addition to the risk pool,”concurred Larry Levitt, aninsurance expert with the non-partisan Kaiser Family Founda-tion.At some point, all these cus-

tomers had to pass extensivemedical screening that insurerstraditionally use to screen outpeople with health problems.Such filtering will no longer beallowed starting next year, and asizable share of the uninsuredpeople expected to gain coverageunder Obama’s law have healthproblems that has kept themfrom getting coverage. They’ll bethe costly cases.Obama had sold his health

care overhaul as a win allaround. Uninsured Americanswould get coverage and peoplewith insurance could keep theirplans if they liked them, he said.In hindsight, the presidentmight have wanted to say thatyou could keep your plan as longas your insurer or your employerdid not change it beyond certainlimits prescribed by the govern-ment.That test proved too hard for

many plans purchased directlyby individuals, leading to a waveof cancellations affecting at least3.5 million people, based on anAP survey in which about halfthe states reported data.“I am sorry that they ... are

finding themselves in this situa-tion, based on assurances theygot from me,” Obama said in anNBC interview, adding that theadministration will do “every-thing we can” to help.The new plans under Obama’s

law generally guarantee abroader set of basic benefits andprovide stronger financial pro-tection in cases of catastrophicillness.“There is change coming to

the individual marketplace withconsumer protections that manypeople have never enjoyed orexperienced,” Health andHuman Services SecretaryKathleen Sebelius told senatorsthis week.But better coverage also costs

more.“The loser is the consumer

who is paying higher premiumsto subsidize Obamacare, andwho was paying lower premiumsbecause they were in anotherplan before,” said Bob Laszews-ki, a health care industry consul-tant critical of the law.Ian Hodge of Lancaster, Pa.,

fears he’ll lose out financially.He and his wife are in their early60s, so Hodge said “we reallydon’t worry about maternalcare,” one of the guaranteed ben-efits in the new plans. TheHodges recently got a cancella-tion notice and they’re concerneda new plan may costs them hun-dreds of dollars more than theyare paying now.“We are the persons who

President Obama wants to paymore in health care so we cansubsidize some of the people whowill pay less,” said Hodge.A new analysis backs up his

instinct. The study by the KaiserFamily Foundation found thatpeople who already have individ-ual coverage, like the Hodges,are less likely to qualify for thetax credits that will make cover-age more affordable through thehealth law’s insurance markets.According to the findings, 73

percent of potential customerswho are uninsured will be eligi-ble for tax credits that limit theirpremiums to a fixed percentageof their income. However, fewerthan 40 percent of those whocurrently have individual healthinsurance will qualify.

US documents raise questionson Munich art hoard

Associated Press

A PAINTING from Max Liebermann “Zwei Reiter am Strande” (“Two rid-ers on the beach”) is projected on a screen during a news conference inAugsburg, southern Germany, Tuesday, on the art found in Munich.

MILWAUKEE (AP) — Asouthern Wisconsin family whohad lost hope of ever seeingtheir cat after he ran off fiveyears ago has been reunitedwith the gray tabby.A Racine woman turned

Sammie into the local Wiscon-sin Humane Society after beingconcerned the declawed kittythat’d been hanging around herhome for months would not sur-vive the cold weather. Turns out the 8-year-old cat

was microchipped, so ownerLindsay O’Neill, who also livesin Racine, was called Mondayevening after the cat had beenbrought in.She picked him up Tuesday

at the shelter, about 30 milessouth of Milwaukee.“When I saw him I just broke

down and cried,” O’Neill, 32,said Thursday. “It’s really hardbecause for five years he waswithout a home. He was roam-ing the streets. ... It just brokemy heart that he went throughthat. He’s a good cat and I’m soglad he’s home.”She said she originally wasn’t

sure if they could take backSammie, who spent the firstfour years of his life with thefamily before running off whilethey were moving into a newhome. The family was worried that

he’d changed, and they also hada new cat, dog and a third child

— a toddler.“As soon as I brought him

home within 45 minutes I hadsome alone time with him,” shesaid. “He was purring. He wasaffectionate, rubbing his bodyagainst my legs. He was lickingmy face, just very loving andthat’s who Sammie is.”He did have a skin infection

caused by fleas and a mouthinjury that was already healed,but otherwise he was fine. He still even uses the litter

box.The family, including two

daughters that are now 13 and10, was devastated to lose Sam-

mie, she said, and for a while,they kept up hope he’s returnbecause of his microchip. But astime passed, the familyassumed his sweet personalityattracted him a new owner.“Microchips make reunions

like this possible,” said AlisonKleibor, director of the humanesociety’s Racine location.O’Neill agreed, saying Sam-

mie is warming up to the newanimals and to her 3-year-oldson.“I just think he’s relieved to

be indoors,” she said. “He sun-bathes at the patio door but hasno desire to go outside.”

Thief gets away with140,000 pounds of nutsESCALON, Calif. (AP) —

Authorities in California are try-ing to crack the case of a nutthief who made off with 140,000pounds of walnuts.The theft, estimated at nearly

$400,000, occurred Sunday inthe small Central Valley town ofEscalon. Investigators say it wasone of the biggest to hit the

booming industry. Last month,about 12,000 pounds of walnutsworth $50,000 were stolen from atrailer parked on Highway 99north of Sacramento.This time several truckloads

of walnuts were taken from thefacility. Authorities say risingprices — about $2 per pound —is what appears to be driving therecent walnut thefts.No arrests have yet been

made.

In Their Opinion

An announcement last week that the state of Michiganis in line to receive an infusion of money aimed at, amongother things, reducing infant mortality, seems like a wiseuse of federal dollars.According to The Associated Press, Michigan will

receive $14.4 million from the Department of Health andHuman Services Michigan Department of CommunityHealth’s Maternal, Infant and Early Childhood HomeVisiting Program. Those funds funds follow a more mod-est $32 million federal stipend for the same program lastyear.“This expansion grant is Michigan’s opportunity to fur-

ther support prevention-focused home visiting in a num-ber of at-risk Michigan communities,” James K. Have-man, MDCH director, said in a written statement includ-ed in AP’s coverage of the announcement. “ExpandingMichigan’s home visiting efforts is one of the key strate-gies identified in the effort to reduce our infant mortalityrates.”As AP reported, the Home Visiting Program is

designed to promote maternal, infant and early childhoodhealth, development, and safety, school readiness andstrong parent-child relationships. Home visiting matchestrained professionals with families to provide support andinformation during pregnancy and throughout a child’searly years, according to the state agency. Quality home visiting has been shown to lead to fewer

children in social welfare programs, juvenile corrections,or mental health systems, as well as a reduction in infantmortality. Home visiting helps parents learn why mater-nal health before, during and after pregnancy is impor-tant, and can help parents learn how to care for an infantand build strong, healthy relationships with their chil-dren.Over the years, The Mining Journal has been very cir-

cumspect when considering government initiatives thatlook more like make work programs for bureaucrats thanthe wise use of tax money. That said, this looks to us likea program that will actually accomplish some good at areasonable expenditure of public funds.

OPINION THE DAILY GLOBE • YOURDAILYGLOBE.COM4 l FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 2013

DAILY GLOBENew Jersey GOP still home to RepublicansWe have a young friend who ran the

Young Republicans during her college yearsand now works for a GOP consulting firm.She’s a loyal party member, but she has aproblem. She’s from New York — her fatherand grandfather were both New York Citycops — and she feels increasingly alienatedfrom a party whose center of gravity hasmoved steadily to the South, the West andthe Right.A generation ago, many conservative

Southern Democrats became Republicansand explained their shift with some versionof the phrase, “I didn’t leave my party, myparty left me.” Today our young friend feelsthe same way, and she’s not alone. A GOPdominated by the likes of Sen. Ted Cruz andthe tea party is in danger of strangling itscentrist wing.But Tuesday’s election provides a spark of

hope for the GOP’s Constructive Caucus.The decisive re-election of New Jersey Gov.Chris Christie — a card-carrying pragmatist— and the defeat of Ken Cuccinelli — a teaparty hero who ran for governor of Virginia— shows that pragmatists might still have aplace in the GOP after all.That’s a good thing for the Republicans

and a good thing for American democracy. Inrecent years, the United States has come toresemble Europe, dominated by ideologicallypure parties on the left and the right. Thecenter of American politics has hollowed out.Two vital political species — right-leaningSouthern Democrats and left-leaning North-eastern Republicans — are in danger ofextinction.Christie stands as an important counter-

weight to that trend, a reasonable Republi-can who can chart a winning path in a deepblue state. And he’s part of a long tradition ofsuccessful GOPers in states like New Jersey.

Tom Kean (1982 to 1990) and ChristineWhitman (1994 to 2001) both won two termsin the state house as pragmatic problemsolvers and then served in the administra-tion of Bush 43: Kean as head of the 9/11Commission and Whitman as administratorof the EPA.There used to be plenty of reasonable

Republicans in the Senate as well. RobertStafford of Vermont authored a programthat provides low-cost loans to college stu-dents. Bill Cohen of Maine became Secretaryof Defense in Bill Clinton’s second term.Richard Lugar of Indiana worked withDemocrat Sam Nunn on a bipartisan bill todismantle nuclear weapons in the formerSoviet Union — and was then defeated by atea party challenger in the primaries lastyear.Hardly any Christie-type Republicans are

left in the Senate. One exception is SusanCollins of Maine, who once worked forCohen, took his seat in the Senate, andemerged as a key dealmaker during negotia-tions that reopened the government this fallafter a 16-day shutdown. She’s pretty lonely on Capitol Hill these

days, but there are more GOP pragmatistsserving as governors. After all, senatorsmake speeches but governors make deci-

sions, and that discipline forces them to bemore practical. One example: John Kasich ofOhio defied the Republican legislature thisfall and managed to expand the state’s Med-icaid program. It was “a matter of life anddeath,” as he told the Cincinnati Enquirer.Christie showed a similar governing style

when he worked with President Obama dur-ing Hurricane Sandy last year, infuriatingMitt Romney in the middle of his campaign.The New Jersey governor expressed thepragmatist’s creed when he told Politico:“People expect government to work for them... and you can compromise without compro-mising your principles. It’s not a dirty word.”Significantly, Christie asked only two

Republicans to campaign with him this year:former New York mayor Rudy Giuliani(many of his former aides now work forChristie) and Gov. Susana Martinez of NewMexico, a young Hispanic woman who, likeChristie, managed to win a blue state. NoTed Cruzes need apply.Cuccinelli took exactly the opposite

approach in Virginia, calling in right-wingstalwarts like Ron Paul and Marco Rubioand endorsing a government shutdown thatput thousands of Virginia voters out of work.That strategy might be successful in a pure-red state like Texas or Kentucky, but it’s aloser in a purple state like Virginia. And pur-ple places decide national elections.It’s not at all clear that Christie can win

the Republican nomination for president in2016. Voters in Republican primaries tilt farto the right, as the governor’s pal Giulianidiscovered in 2008. But after Tuesday, rea-sonable Republicans know they are not com-pletely alone. There’s still a home for them inthe GOP, at least in New Jersey.

Letter

Consolidation or not;maintain or close? To the Editor: America’s schools are adjust-

ing to the decreasing studentenrollments. To meet the chal-lenges of enrollment decline,communities across the countrywill need to find ways to reno-vate old and outdated facilities.Bessemer schools are fortunateto have experienced a steady orslight increase in student popu-lation; however, there are stillchallenges the Bessemer SchoolDistrict needs to meet. One strategy to meet the chal-

lenges of decreased enrollment isconsolidation. School districtshave been lured by these “consol-idated schools,” believing thatthey are more cost-effective andstudent opportunities aregreater. However, there isrenewed interest in returning tosmaller, neighborhood-basedschools and avoiding consolida-tion. Keeping our local BessemerSchools in Bessemer and our stu-dents a part of our community isour responsibility. “Students are more successful

when they are part of smaller,more intimate learning commu-nities,” a recent U.S. Depart-ment of Education study said.“Security improves and violencedecreases, as well as studentalcohol and drug abuse.” Smallschool size encourages teachersto innovate and students to par-ticipate, resulting in highergrades and test scores, improvedattendance rates, and lowerdrop-out rates.

When districts consolidate,one or more of the communitieslose their school and identity.Many examples of this can beseen in the western U.P. Notonly do you lose your school iden-tity, in many cases, the buildingsare also closed. More and more community

leaders are recognizing thepower of schools to attract andkeep residents in a neighbor-hood. Leaders in many smallcommunities across the countryare building or renovatingschools as part of broad strate-gies for revitalizing low economicareas. Bessemer can be a part ofthis movement and can be a lead-er in the U.P.States will continue to assist

schools with funding, but schoolsare going to have to reach out totheir local communities for sup-port to supplement governmentfunding.Small, neighborhood-based

schools are best positioned torespond to the calls for schools tobe more accountable, to be moreintegrated into communities,and to be more resource-efficient.Given the need for the BessemerSchool District to update ourbuildings, infrastructure andtechnologies, it is time for Besse-mer’s citizenry to be heard. Keepour schools in Bessemer andmaintain them for our studentsand community for many yearsto come. Any comments, pleasecontact me at 906-667-0802.

Thought for Today: “Man is bornto live, not to prepare for life.” —Boris Pasternak, Russian author(1890-1960).

GENEVA (AP) — Iran’s chiefnuclear negotiator signaledprogress at talks with six worldpowers Thursday on a deal to capsome of his country’s atomic pro-grams in exchange for limited relieffrom sanctions stifling Iran’s econo-my, saying the six had acceptedTehran’s proposals on how to pro-ceed.U.S. officials said Secretary of

State John Kerry will fly to Genevaon Friday to participate in the nego-tiations — a last-minute decisionthat suggests a deal could be immi-nent.A senior State Department offi-

cial traveling with Kerry inAmman, Jordan, said the secretarywould come to Geneva “to help nar-row differences in negotiations.”The official spoke on condition ofanonymity because he was notauthorized to release informationabout the Geneva visit.Even if an agreement is reached,

it would only be the start of a longprocess to reduce Iran’s potentialnuclear threat, with no guaranteeof ultimate success.Still, a limited accord would

mark a breakthrough after nearly adecade of mostly inconclusive talksfocused on limiting, if not eliminat-ing, Iranian atomic programs that

could be turned from producingenergy into making weapons.Tehran’s chief nuclear negotia-

tor, Abbas Araghchi, told Iranianstate TV that the six — the UnitedStates, Russia, China, Britain,France and Germany — “clearlysaid that they accept the proposedframework by Iran.” He later toldCNN that he thinks negotiators atthe table are now “ready to startdrafting” an accord that outlinesspecific steps to be taken.Though Araghchi described the

negotiations as “very difficult,” hetold Iranian state TV that heexpected agreement on details byFriday, the last scheduled round ofthe current talks.The upbeat comments suggested

that negotiators in Geneva weremoving from broad discussions overa nuclear deal to details meant tolimit Tehran’s ability to makeatomic weapons. In return, Iranwould start getting relief from sanc-tions that have hit its economyhard.U.S. officials said Kerry will

travel to the Geneva talks after abrief stop in Israel, where he willhold a third meeting with IsraeliPrime Minister BenjaminNetanyahu, who has spoken outagainst any limited deal that would

allow the Iranians sanctions relief.In Geneva, Kerry is expected to

meet Friday with the EuropeanUnion’s top diplomat, CatherineAshton, and Iranian Foreign Minis-ter Mohammad Javad Zarif, theofficials said. They spoke on condi-tion of anonymity because theywere not authorized to comment onthe schedule.The talks are primarily

focused on the size and output ofIran’s enrichment program,which can create both reactorfuel and weapons-grade materialsuitable for a nuclear bomb. Iraninsists it is pursuing only nucle-ar energy, medical treatmentsand research, but the UnitedStates and its allies fear thatIran could turn this material intothe fissile core of nuclear war-heads.President Barack Obama, in an

interview with NBC on Thursday,described any sanctions relief as“modest” but said core sanctionsagainst Iran would remain inplace.

mation becomes known and canbe shared with the public, it willbe shared.”The sheriff, who issued a

press release late Thursdayafternoon, said the Oneida Coun-ty District Attorney will handleprosecution of the case.

Wisconsin court records showJuergens currently faces acharge of operating with a sus-pended license (fourth or moreoffense) issued in Lincoln Countyand an Oneida County disorderlyconduct citation.In 1997, he entered a no con-

test plea to possession of THC,the active ingredient of marijua-na, and was assessed fines andcourt costs of $699 in a MarathonCounty case. He lived in StevensPoint at that time.The school district’s website

indicates Juergens is an Englishteacher.

One wolf zoneremains openOnly one wolf hunting zone in

Wisconsin remained open tohunting and trapping today afterthe Wisconsin Department ofNatural Resources closed thestate’s most southerly zone onThursday.The quota of wolves in zone 6

was 30 and the season closedwhen 29 animals were killed.Only zone 3, in the far north-

west part of the state, remainedopen.David MacFarland, DNR

large carnivore specialist, said,“We will be considering harvesttrends as we approach the quotain the final zone, as well.”The quota for zone 3, which

includes parts of Burnett, Wash-burn, Rusk and Taylor counties,is set at 71, but only 28 wolveshad been harvested.The two zones including Iron

County were among the first toclose as hunters and trappersquickly met the quotas.The statewide harvest on

Thursday stood at 199 out of agoal of 251.

remains a sound basis for hunt-ing wolves.“Contrary to those that

oppose the hunt, wolves canand will attack humans,” hesaid, citing an attack on ateenage camper in Minnesotathis year.“A decision here of whether

or not we use sound science tomanage wolves, as with alldecisions this body makes,should not be based on emo-

tions, agendas or innuendo, butrather on facts,” he said.Casperson said he still sup-

ports the thrust of the 2011 res-olution sent to Congress,despite the factual errors itcontained.“Years ago, when I worked

for my family’s trucking compa-ny, we didn’t scrap a log truckbecause it had a flat tire,”Casperson said. “We fixed thetire and kept trucking. For thesame reason, I will not disownthe whole resolution aboutwolves because of an error inthe text. I will correct the errorand continue to promote safetyin our communities.”

Obama: ‘I’m sorry’ Americans are losing insurance WASHINGTON (AP) — Seeking to

calm a growing furor, President BarackObama said Thursday he’s sorry Ameri-cans are losing health insurance plans herepeatedly said they could keep under hissignature health care law. But the presi-dent stopped short of apologizing for mak-ing those promises in the first place.“I am sorry that they are finding them-

selves in this situation based on assur-ances they got from me,” he said in aninterview with NBC News.Signaling possible tweaks to the law,

Obama said his administration was work-ing to close “some of the holes and gaps”that were causing millions of Americansto get cancellation letters. Officials said hewas referring to fixes the administrationcan make on its own, not legislativeoptions some congressional lawmakershave proposed.“We’ve got to work hard to make sure

that they know we hear them, and we aregoing to do everything we can to deal with

folks who find themselves in a tough posi-tion as a consequence of this,” Obamasaid.The president’s apology comes as the

White House tries to combat a cascade oftroubles surrounding the rollout of thehealth care law often referred to as “Oba-macare.” The healthcare.gov website thatwas supposed to be an easy portal forAmericans to purchase insurance hasbeen riddled by technical issues. And withat least 3.5 million Americans receivingcancellation notices from their insurancecompanies, there’s new scrutiny aimed atthe way the president tried to sell the lawto the public in the first place.In Thursday’s interview, Obama took

broader responsibility for the health carewoes than in his previous comments aboutthe rollout, declaring that if the law isn’tworking “it’s my job to get it fixed.”“When you’ve got a health care rollout

that is as important to the country and tome as this is and it doesn’t work like a

charm, that’s my fault,” he said.Some Republicans, who remain fierce

opponents of the law three years after itwon congressional approval, appearedunmoved by Obama’s mea culpa.“If the president is truly sorry for

breaking his promises to the Americanpeople, he’ll do more than just issue a half-hearted apology on TV,” Senate MinorityLeader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said in astatement.In recent days, focus has intensified on

the president’s promise that Americanswho liked their insurance coverage wouldbe able to keep it. He repeated the lineoften, both as the bill was being debated inCongress and after it was signed into law.But the health care law itself made

that promise almost impossible to keep. Itmandated that insurance coverage mustmeet certain standards and that policiesfalling short of those standards would nolonger be valid unless they were grandfa-thered, meaning some policies were

always expected to disappear.The White House says under those

guidelines, fewer than 5 percent of Ameri-cans will have to change their coverage.But in a nation of more than 300 millionpeople, 5 percent is about 15 million peo-ple.Officials argue that those forced to

change plans will end up with better cov-erage and that subsidies offered by thegovernment will help offset any increasedcosts.“We weren’t as clear as we needed to be

in terms of the changes that were takingplace,” Obama told NBC. “And I want todo everything we can to make sure thatpeople are finding themselves in a goodposition, a better position than they werebefore this law happened.”The president’s critics have accused

him of misleading the public aboutchanges that were coming under the law,which remains unpopular with manyAmericans.

Senate OKs gay rightsbill banningdiscrimination

WASHINGTON (AP) —Reflecting Americans’ increasingacceptance of gays, the Senateon Thursday approved legislationthat would bar workplace discrimi-nation based on sexual orientationand gender identity.

Gay rights advocates hailedthe bipartisan, 64-32 vote as ahistoric step although it couldprove short-lived. A foe of the bill,Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio,has signaled that the Republican-led House is unlikely to even vote.Senate proponents were lookingfor a way around that obstacle.

Seventeen years after a similaranti-discrimination measure failedby one vote, 54 members of theSenate Democratic majority and10 Republicans voted for theEmployment Non-DiscriminationAct. It is the first major gay rightsbill since Congress repealed theban on gays serving openly in themilitary three years ago.

“All Americans deserve a fairopportunity to pursue the Ameri-can dream,” said Sen. SusanCollins, R-Maine, a chief sponsorof the bill.

Proponents cast the effort asCongress following the lead ofbusiness and localities as some90 percent of Fortune 500 compa-nies and 22 states have outlawedemployment discriminationagainst gay, bisexual and trans-gender Americans.

HAYWARD, Wis. — A Madi-son man was recently convictedof trying to run down a wolf witha snowmobile.Kirk R. Munden, 33, was

found guilty by a Sawyer Countyjury of chasing the wolf acrossthe ice of Spider Lake in Febru-ary of 2007.Judge Gerald Wright fined

Munden $327 on the Departmentof Natural Resources citation,issued by conservation wardenHenry Bauman.Munden chased down the wolf

while accompanied by his broth-

er, Christopher Munden, andcousin, Timothy Harris.He used a helmet-mounted

video camera to film the pursuit,which ended when the wolf leftthe lake and entered woods. OnJan. 21, Kirk Munden posted thevideo on You Tube, where it wasviewed by a conservation war-den.Munden admitted he had

chased the wolf, even though heknew it was illegal.According to court records, the

12 jurors deliberated less thanan hour before coming up withthe verdict.Harris, 37, of Stillwater,

Minn., forfeited $144 andChristopher Munden, 34, of Bar-ron, forfeited $264 on DNR cita-tions related to the same inci-dent.

Senate votes to let barsbuy logoed beer glasses LANSING (AP) — The

Michigan Senate has voted tolift a ban on bars and restau-rants serving beer in logoedglasses.But critics say the bill

approved 34-3 Thursday does-n’t go far enough and allows toomuch government intrusioninto private establishments.The legislation headed to the

House lets retailers use brand-logoed glassware only if it’sbought from a third party andnot directly from alcohol manu-facturers and wholesalers. Barswould have to submit their pur-chase order to regulators forapproval, which is drawingwithering criticism from theMichigan Restaurant Associa-tion.The bill only applies to glass-

ware and still keeps bars andrestaurants from having beercompany logos on other itemslike plates, lights and pooltables.Regulators have signaled a

willingness to allow logoeditems. The bill would takeprecedence, though.

DETROIT (AP) — A police union leader whowas the last witness in a trial to determineDetroit’s next step in bankruptcy testifiedThursday that city officials who led privatemeetings about the city’s bleak finances beforethe historic filing were not interested in give-and-take negotiations.Detroit wants to slash billions of dollars of

debt in the largest bankruptcy in U.S. history.But before any numbers get crunched, it mustprove to a judge that it’s eligible for Chapter 9by passing several key steps, including evidenceof good-faith talks with creditors early last sum-mer.Unions and pension funds claim emergency

manager Kevyn Orr and his legal team plannedbankruptcy for months and really had no desireto strike a deal. They’re also pointing to theMichigan Constitution, which says public pen-

sions can’t be altered.Closing arguments are set for Friday.Mark Diaz, president of the Detroit Police

Officers Association, was asked about meetingsheld between June 14, when emergency manag-er Kevyn Orr offered just pennies on the dollar tocreditors, and the bankruptcy filing on July 18.“At one of the meetings it was definitely por-

trayed to me these were not negotiations,” Diaztestified.A consultant for city pension funds, Bradley

Robins, says Orr’s team didn’t allow a reason-able amount of time to negotiate possiblechanges to retiree health care. He said he didn’thave access to critical data until June 21, lessthan a month before the bankruptcy filing.But on cross-examination, Robins said he

wasn’t personally authorized to negotiate for thepension funds. He also acknowledged that “it

would be our starting point” that pensions can’tbe touched.During four days of testimony, Orr defended

his actions with creditors and said four weekswere plenty to make progress. The timing of theChapter 9 filing was also affected by a lawsuit instate court that was aimed at derailing the pro-cess.Orr, a bankruptcy expert who was appointed

emergency manager last March, has saidDetroit has at least $18 billion in long-termdebt, including $3.5 billion in pension shortfalls.If Detroit is found eligible to stay in

bankruptcy, the case would turn to how to solvethe debt. The city has said it could propose aplan by the end of the year. Meanwhile, a teamof mediators has been meeting with all sideswith the hope of reaching an out-of-court com-promise.

DULUTH, Minn. (AP) — TheNational Park Service plans tohold public meetings in Minneso-ta and Michigan on Isle RoyaleNational Park’s wolf population,which is teetering on the verge ofextinction.A debate is under way among

researchers, Park Service offi-cials and the public on whetherhumans should intervene to pre-serve the island’s isolated wolfpopulation, which some expertssay appears doomed because ofinbreeding and climate change.Officials said there are threebasic options: Doing nothing,waiting for the existing wolves todie off and then reintroducingnew wolves, or introducing newwolves soon while some wolvesstill are present.Phyllis Green, superintendent

of Isle Royale National Park, for-mer Ottawa National Forestsupervisor, said the meetingswill explain the predicament,offer new information and takepublic suggestions.

“We’ve talked to a lot ofexperts in recent months, and wewant to bring that new informa-tion to the public,” Green told theDuluth News Tribune onWednesday. “We are not in thedecision-making stage at thispoint. We’re still sorting outwhat intervention is appropri-ate.”The meetings are set for Nov.

12 in Houghton, Nov. 14 inChelsea, Nov. 19 in St. Paul andNov. 20 in Duluth.Eight wolves were counted in

this winter’s annual survey onthe 45-mile-long island in LakeSuperior, down from 24 in 2009.It’s an all-time low for the studyon the predator-prey relation-ship between the island’s wolvesand moose, which has beenunder way for more than 50years. Michigan TechnologicalUniversity researcher Rolf Peter-son said the wolf numbers havealways fluctuated, but they’vedropped so low now that theymay not be able to recover.

NEW YORK (AP) — Twitterpopped, but the rest of the marketdropped.Twitter wowed investors with a

73 percent surge on its first day oftrading Thursday. The broadermarket, however, had its worst daysince August as traders worriedthat the Federal Reserve could cutback on its economic stimulus.The cause of that worry was a

surprisingly strong report on U.S.economic growth in the third quar-ter. That led investors to believethe Fed could start pulling back assoon as next month, sooner thanmany anticipated.After 33 record-high closes this

year, an increasing number ofinvestors believe the stock markethas become frothy and is ready fora pullback. The first-day surge inTwitter, a company that has nevermade a profit, was the latest exam-ple.“The market had rallied a heck

of a lot and to justify further gains,we really need to see the economyimproving or corporate earningspicking up,” said Alec Young, glob-al equity strategist with S&P Cap-ital IQ.The Standard & Poor’s 500

index fell 23.34 points, 1.3 percent,to 1,747.15. Even after Thursday’sdrop, the index is still up 22.5 per-cent this year. The last time thebenchmark index had a bigger gainfor a whole year was in 2009.The Dow Jones industrial aver-

age retreated from the record highit set the day before, giving up

152.90 points, or 1 percent, to closeat 15,593.98.The Nasdaq composite lost

74.61 points, or 1.9 percent, to3,857.33.Twitter soared $18.90 to $44.90.

Twitter priced its initial publicoffering Wednesday night at $26per share.What got traders concerned

about a pullback by the Fed was areport from the government earlyin the day that the U.S. economyexpanded at an annual rate of 2.8percent in the third quarter, upfrom 2.5 percent in the previousquarter and more than economistsanticipated.The robust growth “certainly

raises the possibility of the Fedpulling back in December,” saidPeter Cardillo, chief marketeconomist at Rockwell Global Cap-ital. “The Fed is going to test thewater.”The Fed is buying $85 billion of

bonds every month to hold downinterest rates and encourage hiringand borrowing. The program hasalso helped drive the stock marketrally by lowering bond yields, mak-ing them less appealing toinvestors.Another key economic report

comes out on Friday, the govern-ment’s jobs survey for October.Economists forecast that U.S.employers added 122,000 jobs,down from 148,000 the monthbefore, reflecting a 16-day partialshutdown of the federal govern-ment.

No more trans fat: FDA banning the artery-clogger WASHINGTON (AP) — Heart-clogging

trans fats were once a staple of the Americandiet, plentiful in baked goods, microwavepopcorn and fried foods. Now, mindful of thehealth risks, the Food and Drug Administra-tion is getting rid of what’s left of them forgood.Condemning artificial trans fats as a

threat to public health, the FDA announcedThursday it will require the food industry tophase them out.Manufacturers already have eliminated

many trans fats, responding to criticismfrom the medical community and to locallaws, Even so, the FDA said getting rid ofthe rest — the average American still eatsaround a gram of trans fat a day — couldprevent 20,000 heart attacks and 7,000deaths each year.It won’t happen right away. The agency

will collect comments for two months beforedetermining a phase-out timetable. Differ-ent foods may have different schedules,depending how easy it is to find substitutes.“We want to do it in a way that doesn’t

unduly disrupt markets,” said Michael Tay-lor, FDA’s deputy commissioner for foods.Still, he says, the food “industry has demon-strated that it is, by and large, feasible todo.”Indeed, so much already has changed that

most people won’t notice much difference, ifany, in food they get at groceries or restau-rants.Scientists say there are no health benefits

to trans fats. And they can raise levels of“bad” cholesterol, increasing the risk of heartdisease, the leading cause of death in theUnited States. Trans fats are widely consid-ered the worst kind for your heart, evenworse than saturated fats, which also cancontribute to heart disease.Trans fats are used both in processed food

and in restaurants, often to improve the tex-ture, shelf life or flavor of foods. Though theyhave been removed from many items, thefats are still found in some baked goods suchas pie crusts and biscuits and in ready-to-eatfrostings that use the more-solid fats to keepconsistency.They also are sometimes used by restau-

rants for frying. Many larger chains havephased them out, but smaller restaurantsmay still get food containing trans fats fromsuppliers.How can the government get rid of them?

The FDA said it has made a preliminarydetermination that trans fats no longer fallin the agency’s “generally recognized as safe”category, which covers thousands of addi-tives that manufacturers can add to foodswithout FDA review. Once trans fats are offthe list, anyone who wants to use themwould have to petition the agency for a regu-lation allowing it, and that would likely notbe approved.The fats are created when hydrogen is

added to vegetable oil to make it more solid,which is why they are often called partiallyhydrogenated oils. The FDA is not targetingsmall amounts of trans fats that occur natu-rally in some meat and dairy products,because they would be too difficult to removeand aren’t considered a major public healththreat on their own.Many companies have already phased out

trans fats, prompted by new nutrition labelsintroduced by FDA in 2006 that list transfats and by an increasing number of locallaws, like one in New York City, that havebanned them. In 2011, Wal-Mart pledged toremove all artificial trans fats from the foodsthe company sells by 2016. Recent schoollunch guidelines prevent them from beingserved in cafeterias.In a statement, New York City Mayor

Michael Bloomberg said it was his city’s2008 ban that led to much of the change.“Our prohibition on trans fats was one ofmany bold public health measures that facedfierce initial criticism, only to gainwidespread acceptance and support,” hesaid.But support is far from universal. A

nationwide poll conducted by the PewResearch Center between Oct. 30 and Nov. 6said that of the 996 adults surveyed, 44 per-cent were in favor of prohibiting restaurantsfrom using trans fats while 52 percentopposed the idea.Still, Americans are eating much less of

the fat. According to the FDA, trans fat intakeamong Americans declined from 4.6 gramsper day in 2003 to around one gram in 2012.A handful of other countries have banned

them, including Switzerland and Denmark.Other countries have enacted strict labelinglaws.Dr. Leon Bruner, chief scientist at the

Grocery Manufacturers Association, said ina statement that his group estimates thatfood manufacturers have voluntarily low-ered the amount of trans fats in food prod-ucts by 73 percent.The group, which represents the country’s

largest food companies, did not speculate ona reasonable timeline or speak to how diffi-cult a ban might be for some manufacturers.Bruner said in a statement that “consumerscan be confident that their food is safe, andwe look forward to working with the FDA tobetter understand their concerns and howour industry can better serve consumers.”Said FDA Commissioner Margaret Ham-

burg: “While consumption of potentiallyharmful artificial trans fat has declined overthe last two decades in the United States,current intake remains a significant publichealth concern.”

ROCHESTER, N.Y. (AP) — The rub-ber duck squeaked out a win for a placein the National Toy Hall of Fame, join-ing the ancient game of chess in the2013 class inducted Thursday.The pair beat out 10 other finalists:

bubbles, the board game Clue, Fisher-Price Little People, little green Armymen, the Magic 8 Ball, My Little Pony,Nerf toys, the Pac-Man video game,Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and thescooter.Online polls had Teenage Mutant

Ninja Turtles and My Little Pony run-ning strong, but in the end a nationalselection committee made up of 23experts, including toy collectors, design-ers and psychologists, voted in the win-ners.“The two inductees ... are fantastic

examples of the two extremes in theworld of play,” said Christopher Bensch,vice president for collections at TheStrong Museum, which houses the 15-year-old hall.“One is so strategic. It’s rule-driven.

It’s something that adults play and puz-zle over,” Bensch said, “and at the otherextreme is a toy that’s pure fun. It hasno rules. No one wins or loses. Yousqueeze it. You float it. It’s so silly, sofun.”Anyone can nominate a toy for the

hall of fame, but to make it through theselection process and become a finalist atoy must have achieved icon status, sur-vived through generations, foster learn-

ing, creativity or discovery and have pro-foundly changed play or toy design.“If there is a game you can call clas-

sic, this is that game,” said curator Nico-las Ricketts as he introduced chess dur-ing an induction ceremony that featuredthe unveiling of chess- and rubber duck-themed cartoons by syndicated cartoon-

ist Leigh Rubin.Chess can be traced back centuries to

an ancient Indian war game, but evolvedinto the game it is today by 1475, Rick-etts said.“In 1779, Benjamin Franklin wrote

that playing this game inspires habits offoresight, circumspection and caution,

all important traits in human life,” hesaid. “Scholars today still study theeffect of this game’s play on the child-hood brain and development.”The rubber duck “has been a fixture

in pop culture for decades,” curatorPatricia Hogan said.Although rubber toys first appeared

in the late 1880s, no oneknows exactly who hatched the idea ofthe rubber duck, museum officials said.They weren’t always meant for the

bath — the first ones didn’t float — butErnie on “Sesame Street” secured itsplace in the tub with his 1970 ode, “Rub-ber Duckie.” The song made it to No. 16on the Billboard Top 40 chart.

CMA Awards, fellow starssalute George Strait

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) —The entertainer of the year tro-phy at the Country Music Asso-ciation Awards is one of the mostcoveted honors in the genre, butsometimes it’s OK to lose — like,say, when George Strait is anominee.Strait won his third enter-

tainer of the year award and hisfirst since 1990 o9n Wednesdaynight against country music’scurrent hit makers, and no oneseemed disappointed. BlakeShelton — one of five performerswith a leading two victories —was excited to lose to the 61-year-old whose popularity defieshis age.“That’s how it needs to be

because he’s not just entertainerof the year, he’s entertainer ofthe last three decades, I guess,or four decades,” Shelton said. “Idon’t know who’s keeping score.I mean, it’s George Strait. He’sKing George. I couldn’t be happi-er with how this turned out.”Shelton was one of five top

winners with two trophiesapiece, along with Florida Geor-gia Line and the trio of TaylorSwift, Tim McGraw and KeithUrban, who won music videoand music event of the year fortheir “Highway Don’t Care” col-laboration.Like Strait, Swift also was

going for her third entertainer of

the year, which would have beena CMA record for a woman. LikeShelton, she couldn’t have caredless when she lost, instead hug-ging Faith Hill as they criedtears of joy for Strait. She notedthey’ve both opened for Strait intheir careers and she recounteda story about how Strait and hiswife Norma dropped in to one ofher first headlining concertswhen she was a teenager just towish her luck.The crowd gave Strait a

standing ovation as he made hisway to the stage, and stayedstanding throughout his speech.It wasn’t just a special night forthose in the arena. It was alsothe show’s top trending momenton Facebook.His retirement from the road

has gained lots of attention, butStrait isn’t a relic. He recentlyearned his record 60th No. 1 andsigned a five-album deal withUniversal Music Nashville.Backstage, he shared with

reporters how it has felt as hecircles the country on his TheCowboy Rides Away tour, hislast.“When I first started out this

year, the first few shows, I aboutlost it every night, you know,leaving the stage ... thinking,‘This might be the last time Iever play on this stage again,’”Strait said.

IRON RIVER — Ironwood,with senior Jessica Gering firinga match-best 13 kills and plentyof support from a festive studentcheering section, claimed theClass C District 95 volleyballfinal here Thursday night atCharles Greenlund Gymnasium,holding off the Mountaineers 26-24, 25-16, 25-23.“Gering, she’s our senior lead-

er out there, and she had one ofher better games tonight,” saidIronwood coach Lisa Graham,who thinks it’s been at least 15years since Ironwood won a dis-trict championship.Gering also had two blocks,

while Mariah Beaudette added

12 more kills, one block and fouraces for the Red Devils.“Mariah has been our go-to

girl, and she played very welltoo,” Graham said.Ironwood, while slow to start

in the match, overmatched IronMountain with its firepower asthe match progressed. But theyoung Mountaineers didn’t foldeasy, using strong serving tokeep the match tight.“We’ve had strong servers all

year, and it’s kept us in a lot ofmatches,” Mountaineers coachJeanne Newberry said. Marti Pirkola was 13-for-13

serving with seven points. BriGeyser went 9-for-10 with sixpoints, and Cassie Feira was 11-for-13 with eight points. Pirkola,

Geyser (2), Alena Herman andFeira all served aces in thematch.Iron Mountain led the first set

by as many as seven points, hold-ing a 20-13 edge before Ironwoodfound its groove. Beaudette, witha couple a tip shots, helped bringthe Red Devils back. Ironwoodpulled even at 22-22 thanks to akill from Sarah Johnson, who fin-ished with seven. Spikes to openholes in the Mountaineer defenseby Beaudette, Gering and a sec-ond-attempt tip by Emily DiGior-gio ended the set in favor of theRed Devils.“We were very flat, couldn’t

get anything rolling off the bat,”Graham said. “I tried to calltimeout to get them out of that

slump, and we were able to get itgoing.”Ironwood never trailed in the

second set. Iron Mountain heldclose until a kill by Gering madeit 18-15 and ignited a late pushby the Red Devils. Katie Erick-son was key to the Red Devilssuccess, totaling 42 assists in thematch.“She’s our quarterback out

there giving them the ball,” Gra-ham said. The steady distribution by

Erickson helped fuel a strongattack that kept the Moun-taineer defense off-balance, andforced a number of errantreturns.“We were a little late in our

blocks,” Newberry said. “They

found the holes.”The final set was tight

throughout. An ace by Pirkolahad IM out front 21-20, but longhits and miscommunication keptthe Mountaineers from forcing afourth set.“No. 5 (Gering), she really con-

trolled their team,” Newberrysaid. “She held everythingtogether. She controlled the frontrow and did a good job talking inthe back row.”Anni Cevigney and Alena Her-

man led Iron Mountain with sixkills each. Iron Mountain loses two

seniors in Mandy Haferkorn andKristen Gendron.“Gendron was our defensive

specialist,” Newberry said. “And

Mandy was our server. We willmiss both them. We did have ayoung team. We had four sopho-mores out there at one point. Itgives me hope for next year. Wehad a strong bench, too. Thatmeans everything. To finish inthe district final from where wecame from, I can only see the pos-itive.“I was proud of my girls at the

beginning of the season, and I amstill proud of them now.”Ironwood goes to Gladstone

Tuesday to face Calumet in aregional semifinal.“All the girls, it was really a

good team effort,” Graham said.“We’ve played some pretty toughteams this season, so hopefullythat will help us get through.”

Red Devils sweep Mountaineers, win district title

IRONWOOD CELEBRATES the MHSAA Class C District 95 championship at Iron River Thursday.

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) —While Aaron Rodgers is hurt,another star player looks as ifhe’ll soon be returning to thePackers.Linebacker Clay Matthews is

working his way toward a poten-tial return to Lambeau Field forSunday’s game against thePhiladelphia Eagles.The heavy black wrap that vir-

tually encased his right hand inpractice offers a big clue as towhy he’s missed the past fourgames.“I think so. You know obvious-

ly it’s going to be coach’s decision,but you know, I’d like to be outthere,” Matthews said Thursday.“So I’m just trying to get ready tohelp out in any way which I can.”Getting Matthews back would

help offset the loss of Rodgers,who hurt his left collarbone inMonday night’s loss to the Bears.“It’s time for other positions to

elevate their game and reallycarry this team ... until he comesback,” Matthews said.The four-time Pro Bowler has

45½ sacks in 62 games, includingthree in his four appearances thisseason. His return would be ahuge boost for an outsidelinebacker group ravaged byinjuries.Matthews was limited in prac-

tice Thursday, as were threeother outside linebackers: MikeNeal (knee), Andy Mulumba(ankle) and Nick Perry (foot). Thelatter has missed the past threegames. The only healthy outsidelinebacker is rookie Nate Palmer.First, Matthews has to get

used to that “club” on his righthand he wears in practice. Fromafar, it looks as if he was wearinga large black oven mitt stuffedwith foam that’s sealed aroundhis wrist.Matthews is not a big fan of it.

“It does not feel good.”“I’ve just got to get used to

playing, you know a little morewith one hand and obviouslybeing comfortable with throwingit in there,” he said. “So I’m tak-ing baby steps in coming back topractice.”Whether trying to spin past an

offensive tackle or leveling anundersized running back tryingto throw a block, the hands areimportant in helping to get lever-age.“Obviously you need to have

great hands, and you know whenyou take one away it definitelyhinders your game a little bit,” hesaid. “We’ll take it day-by-day,but it’s getting better.”

Gussert, ForestPark sweepSpeedgirls

By PAT [email protected]

EWEN — The Crystal Falls For-est Park Lady Trojans brought theirA game to Ewen and toppled Besse-mer 25-13, 25-9, 25-12 to claim theMHSAA Class D District 127 title onThursday night.The Speedgirls were never able to

take the lead even once in any of thethree sets and though Bessemergave 100 percent effort and foughtback against Forest Park, the matchwas over in 52 minutes.“Bessemer has some good players

and they are a good, scrappy, hus-tling team,” Lady Trojan coach KimBjork said. “Our girls were just toomuch for them. We’re peaking at theright time and getting better eachgame. We’re really very young. Wehad three sophomores start on thefloor tonight. Each match they getmore experience and get better.”Bessemer coach Shelly Mettler

was impressed by Forest Park.“We never gave up and kept fight-

ing, but that’s an all-around goodteam with very few weaknesses,”Mettler said. “I’d be surprised if theydon’t make it to the quarterfinals orsemifinals. We wish them the best,because they’ll probably representthe U.P.”The Lady Trojans always seem to

come out of the gates very quicklyand Thursday was no exception.Libby Shamion bounced a kill off aBessemer defender’s hand to startthe first set, Kendra Campbell acedthe Speedgirls and Bessemerreturned a shot wide as Forest Parkwent up 3-0.Lexi Gussert got rolling and

boomed three kills down the middle.Maria Stankewicz’s service ace madeit 7-2.But the Speedgirls responded

when Nicole Lekies served a linedrive ace and Brenna Bogaczyk tookon Lexi Gussert at the net. Gussertis generally considered the bestfemale athlete in the U.P. and willbe attending Michigan State Univer-sity on a basketball scholarship nextfall. With Forest Park ahead 13-9,Gussert skied for a kill, butBogaczyk went up and blockedGussert’s shot down for a point.Bogaczyk would block Gussert’s hitsfour more times in the match.“She (Gussert) is definitely the

best I’ve played against,” Bogazyksaid. “She’s an awesome opponent,

but I’m proud of how we blocked herand challenged her. We all cametogether and played hard. It’s hardto part with these girls.”But Gussert came back with a

variety of shots and had a total of sixkills and five aces in the first setalone. By the end of the match,Gussert notched 14 kills and eightaces.The district tournament could

also have been called “The LexiGussert Road Show.”“She’s a one-woman wrecking

crew,” Mettler said. “Very few teamscan stop her. She has a very goodsupporting cast and the rest of theteam feeds off her leadership andenergy. And she just exudes confi-dence.”Bjork put it very simply.“You can’t ask for a better player

than Lexi,” she said.In game two, Bessemer narrowed

Forest Park’s lead to 11-7 whenJenika Laukka hit a bullet-likeserve for an ace. But the Lady Tro-jans reeled off nine straight points,highlighted by Shamion’s two killsdown the sideline. Despite two blocks by Bogaczyk,

Gussert slammed three straight killsto win the second set 25-9.In the final game, Forest Park

steadily built a 20-6 lead and beganto liberally substitute. SpeedgirlValerie Rowe served four straightpoints, including an ace and SarahTrudgeon’s nice tip made it 21-11,but it was too little, too late forBessemer.Trudgeon and Bogaczyk led

Bessemer with two kills and Boga-cyzk tallied seven blocks. Rowe hadtwo service aces.In Bessemer’s final huddle of the

year, it was apparent that theSpeedgirls were a close team astears began to fall.“We have seven seniors leaving

and they’ve left everything on thecourt,” Mettler said. “We’ve had sev-eral injuries and the girls have hadto overcome a lot. This is a goodgroup of kids and it’s hard to seethem go. They worked hard andwere very coachable. And theylearned to play for the love of thegame.”Bessemer’s seven seniors playing

their final high school volleyballgame were Claire Tourville, Mikhay-la Sampson, Jenika Laukka, JulieAhnen, Sarah Trudgeon, BrennaBogaczyk and Allyson Hanson.

DAILY GLOBE SCOREBOARDFootball

By JIM LITKEAP Sports Writer

Fans in the stands at SuperBowls past only think they’veseen it all.They’ve been sun-burned in

Los Angeles, soaked in Miamiand buffeted by winds at stopsin between. Deafened duringflyovers. Titillated at halftime,blacked out mid-game and evenmoved to tears by tributes toservicemen, veterans and thevictims of 9/11.Even so, this next Super

Bowl promises those in atten-dance something different: Thechance to freeze their rear endsoff.On Feb. 2, 2014 — the date

could still be changed if aNor’easter rolls in off the JerseyShore — every one of the 82,000or so ticketholders enteringMetLife Stadium will receive agift bag. Inside are a seat cush-ion, muffler, ski gaiters, threepairs of hand- and foot-warm-ers, lip balm and a package oftissues, plastered with enoughlogos to make a NASCAR driverjealous.The Super Bowl has been

played in northern cities fourtimes before — inside climate-controlled domes — but neveroutdoors. The average daily lowfor East Rutherford, N.J., inearly February is 22 degrees,with temperatures typicallyfalling throughout the night,when the game will be played.Snow, wind and rain, or allthree at once, is not out of thequestion. Exactly how muchprotection all that swag pro-vides against Mother Nature’swrath remains to be seen.“We can’t provide them with

coats,” said Frank Supovitz, theNFL’s vice president in chargeof preparations for the game.“But we will be strongly encour-aging them to stay in theirseats.”Which begs the question: If

the game is for the fans, whystage it outdoors in the NewJersey-New York metro areaprecisely when the trustyFarmer’s Almanac, hardly aloneamong forecasters, is predictinga blizzard?Money.NFL commissioner Roger

Goodell and his owners are tak-ing advantage of a lull in thetourism calendar to turn aswath of Manhattan into a play-ground and make cash registerssing. A 180 foot-tall tobogganslide will be plopped down inTimes Square, and a stretch ofBroadway from 34th Street to48th will be closed to traffic,renamed “Super Bowl Boule-vard,” and converted into a rol-licking theme park, merchan-dise shop and concert venuecalled the “NFL Experience.”For a week, kids will punt,

pass and kick while their par-ents shop for replica jerseys inlocales where bankers andaccount executives usually gob-ble down lunch. It won’t be theonly place on an already crowd-ed spit of land where jaded NewYorkers trade elbows with theirguests. As many as 200,000 out-of-towners will be cast in therole of Jack Lemmon in themovie of the same name, daz-zled by the goings-on and tryingnot to get fleeced by savvy hote-liers and street vendors.Already, reports are circulat-

ing about prices being tripled,with modest hotel rooms in Mid-town jacked to $1,000 a night,and even more modest accom-modations across the HudsonRiver in New Jersey, close toMetLife Stadium, offered at theprincely sum of $600. That’s ontop of what’s already the high-est ticket prices ever — rangingfrom $500 to $2,600 — a hikethe NFL candidly acknowledgedwas intended to make life toughon scalpers.

But hustlers won’t be theonly folks forced to improvise.Plans for the event have been

three years in the making, butdepending on weather, theymight not be finalized until thelast minute. Moving fans acrossthe region, even aided by thenation’s most extensive publictransportation network, pre-sents a logistical nightmare —even before security considera-tions are factored in.“You’ve got two states, sepa-

rated by a river, and peoplefrom the five boroughs andeight or nine counties in NewJersey all heading for the sameplace in a matter of hours,” saidAl Kelly, who heads up the hostSuper Bowl committee. “Whatwe have is a series of contingen-cy plans where priorities shiftaccording to the day and insome cases hour by hour. ... If astorm hits one day, we’ll shiftresources to clearing certainroads and bridges; if it landssomewhere else at a differenttime, we could be forced tochange the entire blueprint.“The one thing we better be,”

Kelly said finally, “is nimble.”But it’s not just the region’s

reputation on the line.By waiving the normal Super

Bowl specifications to greaseNew York’s winning bid in 2010— previously, bid cities wererequired to average 50-degreetemperatures during gameweek — Goodell and his ownersare out to prove the propositionFrank Sinatra laid out in “NewYork, New York.” Namely, thatif you can make it there, youcan make it anywhere.Since taking over as commis-

sioner in 2006, Goodell hasmade securing new stadiums orrenovating existing ones for hisalready wealthy owners —almost always with some levelof taxpayer-financing — everybit as much a signature issue asplayer safety. It’s no coinci-dence that all five of the stadi-ums that have, or will, comeonline during his tenure havealready been awarded the biggame.Nor is Goodell above dan-

gling the carrot of a futureSuper Bowl as a reward to citiesand states willing to throw taxdollars into stadium pots. With19 of the league’s 32 teams situ-ated within winter’s reach —six already have domed stadi-ums — a successful Super Bowloutdoors could put the entireU.S. map in play for his pitch.New York might seem like a

tough place to set a precedent.It’s already a nexus for many ofthe world’s financial, entertain-ment and media empires, andchaotic on its quietest day. Justrising above that clutter is nosmall feat. And even if the NFLdoes a bang-up job, it won’t turnaround and ask the region’s tax-payers for help anytime soon.MetLife Stadium opened forbusiness in April, 2010, withthe $1.6 billion constructioncost covered jointly by the co-tenants, New York’s Giants andJets, using private funds.“The other thing that’s

important,” said Giants co-owner John Mara, the thirdgeneration of his family to runthe club, “is that all of us, across

the NFL for many years, saidover and over that so many ofthe most memorable games everplayed were played in extremeweather.“So why not here?”The coldest Super Bowl on

record was played in TulaneUniversity’s stadium in 1972 —temperature at kickoff: 39degrees — back when the biggame was still a small event.More relevant in this case werethe 2000 and 2011 Super Bowls,when late-arriving stormsturned Atlanta and Dallas,respectively, into ghost towns.Though both games were playedin domes, much of Atlanta wasfrozen over and inaccessible;Dallas did a face-plant in thefour inches of snow that fellearly in the week, mostly shut-ting down instead of shovelingout.At the moment, the NFL is

one of the slickest, best-run con-glomerates on the planet. It hasthe kind of monopolistic hold onAmerican sports that Microsoftonce exercised over technology.The league takes the lion’sshare of sports-related TV dol-lars, ad revenues and airtime,and routinely crushes rivals inhead-to-head, time-slotmatchups. That’s why the dateof the Super Bowl has creepedfrom its traditional Sunday spotlate in January to the first weekof February, which just happensto be the start of sweeps month.Next year’s big game will be

viewed by 100 million-plus peo-ple in the United States, anddepending on whose numbersare crunched, it’s already themost-watched annual sportingevent around the world. Onlythe Olympics and the originalfutbol — with its World Cupand UEFA Champions Leaguefinal showcases — can offer anargument. So no matter howmany fannies are frozen offinside MetLife, the fans areessentially extras in a showpractically guaranteed to be ahit.Last year’s Super Bowl,

matching Baltimore againstSan Francisco inside NewOrleans’ Superdome, joinednearly two dozen of its prede-cessors on the short list of most-viewed television broadcasts inU.S. history. That despite a 34-minute stretch early in thethird quarter when an electricalfailure cut the lights over muchof the stadium, delaying thegame and sending fans at homescurrying to their refrigerators.No one was surprised those

fans returned in droves soonafter to watch a game that was-n’t decided for the Ravens untilthe final play. But it mystifiedsome, and outraged others, thatthe power went out in a build-ing to which taxpayers havecontributed, in installmentsover the years, about $1 billionto build and then renovate afterHurricane Katrina sweptthrough in 2005.Ravens linebacker Ray

Lewis, who retired after thatgame, and his old sidekick, Ter-rell Suggs, came up with a con-spiracy theory of their own.Both pointed a finger at Good-ell, suggesting without so muchas a shred of evidence that hethrew the switch so the 49erscould climb back into the game.“You’re a zillion-dollar com-

pany, and your lights go out?No,” Lewis said. “No way.”Apparently, he won’t have to

worry about that this timearound, no matter how cold itgets.“The one thing I feel really

confident about,” Mara said, “isthat the lights won’t go out.”

HURLEY HOSTSWebster tonight in a battle of 10-1 teams in a WIAA Division 6 state quarterfinal at VeteransMemorial Field in Hurley at 7 p.m. Above, Hurley’s Jared Wendt (10), Wayne Allen III (68) and Mitchell Makiare among those bringing down Athens’ Daltan Lavicka in last week’s 36-0 Level 2 win at Hurley.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The Minnesota Vikingsneeded most of the game to figure out how to stopRobert Griffin III and the Washington Redskins.They finally walked off their home field a winner,

too.Adrian Peterson ran for 75 yards and two touch-

downs, and the Vikings forced Griffin into threestraight incompletions from the 4 in the final secondsto hold on for a 34-27 victory Thursday night.Christian Ponder went 17 for 21 for 174 yards

with two touchdowns and an interception before leav-ing late in the third quarter with an injured leftshoulder. John Carlson had seven catches for 98yards and a touchdown for the Vikings (2-7).Griffin was 24 for 37 for 281 yards, three touch-

downs and no turnovers for the Redskins (3-6), wholed 27-14 early in the third quarter. He also ranseven times for 44 yards, but the Vikings took himdown for four sacks for 39 yards in the second half.The Redskins committed eight penalties for 63 yards.With the Redskins out of timeouts, Griffin ran for

12 yards on fourth-and-1 at his own 49 right after the2-minute warning. Jordan Reed caught a 17-yardpass to the 8 and, after a short run by the Redskins,the Vikings inexplicably stopped the clock with atimeout of their own. Wide receiver Greg Jenningswas livid on the sideline.But Griffin’s next two passes were incomplete. On

fourth-and-goal with 32 seconds left, his throw to thecorner of the end zone was caught by Santana Moss

with only one foot in bounds.Game over.After losing three games this year in the final

minute, the Vikings finally pulled one out.Blair Walsh kicked two fourth-quarter field goals

for the Vikings after Peterson’s second score gavethem a 28-27 lead late in the third quarter.That drive started at the Washington 41, thanks

to an unnecessary roughness call on Darrel Youngduring the punt return. Ponder scrambled and slunga third-and-12 laser to Jarius Wright for a first downat the sideline. Then, Ponder took off for a 14-yardrun that left him with an injured left shoulder, andan official replay reversed the touchdown call after hedived at the pylon and rolled out of bounds.

Matt Cassel came in, and Peterson scored to givethe Vikings the lead on the next play.The NFC East, which fittingly for this season

rhymes with least, has been right there for the Red-skins to take hold of.Dallas (5-4) and Philadelphia (4-5) are barely

ahead of them, and each has shown significant flaws.They’re going to have to tighten up this defense,though, if they’re going to keep this a true divisionrace with the Cowboys and Eagles. The three teamsentered this week with the three highest averages ofyards allowed per game in the league, and the Red-skins were being scored against at a greater ratethan any other squad except the winless JacksonvilleJaguars.

Ponder, Peterson help Vikings rally to beat Redskins for second win of season

DETROIT (AP) — Overtimegames suit the Dallas Stars just fine.

Rich Peverley’s goal at 4:41 ofovertime completed a comebackand gave Dallas a 4-3 win over theDetroit Red Wings on Thursdaynight.

It was the Stars’ fourth win inovertime or a shootout of the seasonand third straight on their three-game road trip.

“We’ve had a lot of overtimegames so far this year. You need tobe able to get points in any way,”Peverley said.

Peverley beat Howard on a wristshot from the high slot.

“I came off (the boards) and was

looking to shoot,” he said. “A lot oftraffic in front and he (Detroit goalieJimmy Howard) never saw it.”

Shawn Horcoff, Jamie Benn andCody Eakin also for Dallas. KariLehtonen stopped 26 shots.

IRONWOOD — There will bemany new things coming to theGogebic Community CollegeLady Samson basketball pro-gram for the 2013-14 season.The two most notable changes

are having a new coach andreplacing a number of good play-ers from last year’s team withnew Lady Samsons.After 17 years of being the

head coach of the BessemerSpeedboys varsity basketball pro-gram, Mark Movrich was recent-ly hired as the sixth coach of theLady Samsons. The program wasstarted by Deke Routheaux in1976.“I never thought the job would

open up,” Movrich said. “I justwanted to get to a higher leveland this is another challenge anda great opportunity.”Although his teaching job at

A.D. Johnston High Schoolremains the same, his coachingduties will move him from theHouse of Noise to the LindquistCenter and be a very new experi-ence.“Everything this season will be

new,” Movrich said. “One partwill be new for me and anotherpart is new for the girls. The girlsare all new and I have to identifywhat they do best so they can suc-ceed. That’s a big key to find outtheir role on the team. And forsome of these girls (the sopho-mores), I’m their third new coachin three years. “And the teams are new. When

we played our first game atBessemer, I knew if the otherteam would press us and if I hadto have our press-breaker ready.When we play Madison Collegeon Friday, I have no idea if theypress. It’s tough, because youhave to prepare for everything.”Movrich said even dealing

with the 30 second shot clock onoffense would be a new experi-ence for him.It may be a learning experi-

ence for Movrich, but he isn’tcomplaining and it’s a good bet hewill adapt quickly and he has thetrack record to prove it. Since hestarted coaching in the 1996-97season, his Bessemer teamsamassed a 206-164 record play-ing tough schedules. The Speedboys won district

titles in 1997, 2000, 2002 and

2004. Movrich called the 2000season “special,” when Bessemercaught fire at tournament timeand reached the state semifinals.Movrich said moving from

high school to college basketballwill not change the way he coach-es.“Once the ball is thrown up, I’ll

have the same fiery passion forthe game,” he said. “It’s still bas-ketball and I have certain expec-tations of how the game should beplayed. I stress defense andintensity. The first practice was astruggle, but we’re starting tocome around. The girls are eager,willing to learn and really workhard. It’s a good group to workwith and the intensity at practicehas gotten a lot better.”Basketball fans attending

GCC games this year are likely tosee a far different team than the2012-13 squad.Last year’s team loved to press

and would get out and run everychance they could. There wereabout 12 players and Gogebiccould send out waves of restedplayers. Opposing coaches men-tioned the players all seemed thesame in that they were quick andvery aggressive.The 2013-14 Lady Samsons

began practice with eight players(now up to nine), so Movrich saidpressing was not in the cards atthe present time. Fans are morelikely to see an intense, rock-solidhalf-court defense, especially asMovrich has more time to installhis defensive principles.But Movrich said he also want-

ed the team to run when opportu-nities presented themselves,especially with the 30 secondclock ticking down.Movrich knows that each year

both the men’s and women’steams set their sights on winningthe Region 13 Tournamentbecause there is no conferencetitle to win.“I’d like to win the regional,

too, and I’ve heard the girls talk-ing about it,” Movrich said. “Myteam goals are similar to thegoals I always had at Bessemer. Iwant our team to continuouslylearn and improve and reachtheir potential by the end of theseason. Everything else will takecare of itself. And the girls havebeen doing their part by comingto practice everyday, learningand working hard. They are also

a bunch of unselfish players.”Gogebic lost six good, veteran

players from last year’s team thatfinished with a sparkling 20-4record under coach StephanieJustinak. Four sophomoresreturn on this season’s team andJannelle Klemett is a new sopho-more who just came on board.Movrich will count heavily on

Bry Stengard (5-7, Hurley) andBrittany Raisanen (5-3, Hurley)to lead the way as they saw themost extensive playing time lastyear.Movrich said Stengard is “a

quiet leader” who always does theright things. She is very versatileand she can play on the perimeterand in the post and can defendopposing players in both areas.Even though Stengard is not tallwhen playing in the post, shefinds ways to get her share ofrebounds. GCC will probablyneed her for more scoring thisseason.Movrich said Raisanen fits the

model for the type of player helikes to coach.“She is one of our vocal lead-

ers,” Movrich said. “Brittany is ahard-nosed player who’s aggres-sive, real quick and an excellentdefender.”Sophomore Heather Selin (5-1,

Bessemer) is a quick guard whoplays good defense and is anothervocal leader on the team. When

Selin gets on a roll, she can torchthe nets and is especially good atsplashing 3-pointers. Movrichsaid she shoots best when she canget her feet set.Movrich said Adeline Karia-

nen (5-7, Dollar Bay) has becomemore assertive and aggressivesince the start of practice. She isa hard worker who rebounds welland is “an excellent post defend-er.”Klemett (5-2, Jeffers ) recently

joined the team and Movrich saidshe plays with enthusiasm andaggressiveness and is quicklypicking up on things in practice.Freshman Sam Ofstad (5-4,

Hurley) shared Player-of-the-Year honors in the IndianheadConference with Drummond’sBethany Best last season. Shehas excellent basketball skillsand Movrich wants the basket-ball in her hands as much as pos-

sible. “She’s our one true point

guard,” Movrich said. “She’s likea general on the floor when shehas the ball. Sam can create herown shot and create shots for oth-ers. She’s a real good passer, butsometimes she’s a little toounselfish and passes off toomuch.”Freshman Brittni Kisul (5-10,

Lake Linden) is just finishing upa very good volleyball season andMovrich called her “very athlet-ic.”“Right now, she is providing

our interior presence, both offen-sively and defensively,” Movrichsaid.Movrich said Korrie Trier (5-7,

Ironwood) started the year slowlybut is beginning to come on offen-sively and she has impressedMovrich with her defense. Triershould add some scoring punch to

Gogebic’s offensive attack.When Movrich first saw fresh-

man Samantha Robl (5-1, E-TC)play defense, he said he knew shehad been coached by the Beso-nens at Ewen-Trout Creek,because she was such a very goodand smart defensive player. Sheis cat-quick but has been both-ered by blisters that have limitedher practice time.Movrich said his main con-

cerns with the 2013-14 LadySamson team were “lack of heightand depth.”But Movrich has already come

up with three ways to combat theheight problem.“No. 1, take care of the ball,”

he said. “We have to make ourshots and then really box out ondefense.”Gogebic opens its season today

by traveling to the Anoka (Minn.)Classic to play Madison Collegeat 2 p.m.

LAKE FOREST, Ill. (AP) — Jay Cutler’s timeaway proved shorter than the Chicago Bears origi-nally expected.After missing one game, the quarterback will

return Sunday to face the Detroit Lions at SoldierField following a groin tear suffered Oct. 20. Teamofficials originally expected Cutler to be out fourweeks and then be assessed week to week, but doc-tors cleared Cutler to play Thursday and he prac-ticed without a problem.“As soon as I got hurt, I felt like I’d be back

quicker than they thought,” Cutler said. “I kind ofhad that mindset.”Coach Marc Trestman saw no reason to believe

the team is pushing its starter back onto the fieldtoo soon.“He had an excellent practice,” Trestman said.

“He moved around. We worked the entire gameplan today: our movements, climbing the pocket,throwing the football, down the field, short throws,everything. He did everything today.”Cutler does not view his quick return as a gam-

ble. He credited the use of an Athletic Rehabilita-tion and Performance machine (ARP), a device thathelps heal soft tissue, with his rapid recovery.“If I wasn’t back to 100 percent, or if they had

any doubts, I wouldn’t have been able to practicetoday,” he said. “That was the stipulation.”The Bears had a bye after their 45-41 loss to

Washington, which provided some extra time forCutler to recover. He suffered the injury with 10minutes left in the first half of the Washingtongame on a sack, and backup Josh McCown com-pleted the contest, then played all of Mondaynight’s 27-20 win at Green Bay.Cutler is slated to become a free agent after this

season, but called his contract status no factor incoming back so soon.“I haven’t worried about my contract,” he said. “I

haven’t worried about it, period. That stuff takes

care of itself somehow some way.“So my biggest thing was just helping Josh last

week to make sure, even though I knew he wouldbe ready, to make sure I could help him in anyway,and then get back as soon as possible so I couldhelp those guys.”McCown completed 36 of 61 for 476 yards and

did not turn the ball over as Cutler’s replacement.He had a passer rating of 100.2. Cutler has com-pleted 146 of 225 for 1,658 yards and 12 touch-downs with seven interceptions. He has a passerrating of 91.7.McCown said he had no problem returning to

the sidelines after playing so well.“Jay got hurt and I served my team by playing

and doing what I could to help us win a ballgame,and then play effective football when I was inthere,” McCown said. “When he’s healthy, he comesback and he’s the starter and that’s how it goes.That’s how we operate.”McCown said he will take no snaps with the first

team this week at practice, as is normal with back-up quarterbacks with the Bears and many NFLteams. Trestman said he wasn’t sure yet if he willhave third quarterback Jordan Palmer active as aprecaution Sunday.Cutler’s worst game of the season came facing

Detroit and a Lions pass rush spearheaded byNdamukong Suh at Ford Field on Sept. 29. TheBears lost 40-32 and Cutler turned the ball overthree times, including two interceptions and a lostfumble that resulted in a touchdown.“We’ve just got to do a good job up front and

we’ve got to be able to have the ability to move thequarterback around and get away from the rush,and we’ll try to do that, as well,” Trestman said.“Overall, we’ve got to play a cleaner game. We gavethe defense the ball in our territory too manytimes, four times, one on special teams and threetimes offensively. We gave up a touchdown.”

November National Alzheimer’s Disease Awareness monthBy CORTNEY [email protected]

Every 68 seconds, someone inthe United States developsAlzheimer’s disease, and by mid-century, it will increase to every 33seconds.

November is NationalAlzheimer’s Disease Awarenessmonth, and many people knowsomeone who is suffering or hassuffered from Alzheimer’s disease.Currently, there are about 5.2 mil-lion people in the U.S. withAlzheimer’s disease.

According to the Alzheimer’sAssociation, it is the most commontype of dementia, accounting for anestimated 60 to 80 percent of alldementia cases.

Symptoms of the diseaseinclude memory loss that disruptsdaily life, challenges in planningor solving problems, difficultycompleting familiar tasks, confu-sion with time or places, troubleunderstanding visual images andspatial relationships, new prob-lems with words in speaking orwriting, misplacing things andlosing the ability to retrace steps,decreased or poor judgment, with-drawal from work or social activi-ties and changes in mood or per-sonality.

The disease was first identifiedmore than 100 years ago, and theprecise change in the brain, trig-gering the disease, remainsunknown. Many experts believeAlzheimer’s, like other commonchronic diseases, develops as aresult of multiple factors, ratherthan a single cause, according tothe Alzheimer’s Association.

A variety of brain changes cantake place 20 or more years before

symptoms appear. Scientists con-sider the time between the initialchanges and the symptoms ofadvanced Alzheimer’s to be a “con-tinuum” of the disease.

At the start of the continuum,the individual is able to functionnormally despite brain changes,but further along the continuum,the brain can no longer compensatefor the neuronal damage that hasoccurred.

The only known cause ofAlzheimer’s is genetic mutation, anabnormal change in the sequence ofchemical pairs inside genes. Inher-iting these genetic mutations, guar-antees the individual will developthe disease, according to theAlzheimer’s Association. Symptomstend to develop before age 65, butsometimes as early as 30 years old.

Risk factors for the diseaseinclude, family history, having acondition call Mild CognitiveImpairment, cardiovascular riskfactors, the amount of education aperson has had over the course oftheir lives, social and cognitiveengagements and traumatic braininjuries.

With treating the disease, twooptions can be considered, includ-ing pharmacological and non-phar-macologic therapies.

With pharmacological therapy,medication is administered to stopan illness or treat its symptoms.None of the treatments availabletoday for Alzheimer’s slow or stopthe death and malfunction of neu-rons in the brain that cause symp-toms, however dozens of drugs andtherapies aimed at slowing or stop-ping brain cell death and malfunc-tion are being studied worldwide.

With non-pharmacologic, cogni-

tive training and behavioral inter-ventions are used. But as withpharmacologic therapy, no thera-pies have been shown to alter thecourse of the disease, althoughsome are used with the goal ofmaintaining cognitive function or

helping the brain compensate forimpairments.

According to the Alzheimer’sAssociation, one in nine people inthe U.S., age 65 or older, haveAlzheimer’s disease and one inthree senior citizens dies with

Alzheimer’s or another form ofdementia. Alzheimer’s is the sixth-leading cause of death in the U.S.

In 2013, an estimated 450,000people in the U.S. will die withAlzheimer’s disease, and over thenext five years, 5 to 15 percent of

all deaths in senior citizens can beattributed to the disease, based onpercentage changes in select caus-es of death over the past decade.

In 2010, Michigan had 2,736 per100,000 people die due toAlzheimer’s disease. Wisconsin had1,762 people die due to the disease.Both states are also expected tohave increased numbers of peoplewith the disease by 2025. Michiganis expected to increase up to 24 per-cent, while Wisconsin’s is expectedto increase by 24.1 and 31 percentby 2025.

Local resourcesTo help caregivers of those with

the disease, and other forms ofdementia, many local communitiesoffer support groups, includingAspirus Grand View in Ironwood.

According to Danielle Grayson,the group meets the fourth Wednes-day of every month at 5:30 p.m.

“Right now we are goingthrough a transition period, wherewe are opening up the group to anycaregivers, not just specificallyfocused on Alzheimer’s,” Graysonsaid.

Grayson said the meetings offerboth education and support forcaregivers.

“It’s a great chance to come andtalk to people that many be goingthrough similar circumstances,”Grayson said. “Anyone is welcometo attend, and if anyone is interest-ed, we would love to have themgive us a call.”

SPEED BUMPHERMAN

Dear Annie: My older broth-er and I are both in our mid-30sand have not gotten along for 20years. He has been verbally,psychologically and at timesphysically abusive toward me.He has a ferocious temper, andif I say anything he doesn’t like,he lambastes me.I try to avoid him, but since

the birth of my nephew (thecutest baby ever), that is notalways possible. I like his wifeand adore my nephew. Before avisit, I have trouble sleeping atnight. I feel anxious and dreadthe hours passing in anticipa-tion. When I get there, I try tostay silent and enjoy the baby,

not doing anything that mightmake him lash out. I wish there was a way to

heal my relationship with mybrother. He doesn’t believe he’sdone anything hurtful andthinks I should just “get over it.”I wish I could. Is there some-thing I could do? — Little Sis-ter in Need Dear Little Sister: Can you

create a tougher skin? You needto stop taking your brother’sanger personally. His commentshave nothing to do with yourintelligence, your personality oryour opinion on any subject. It’sabout his need to be in control ofevery situation, and at the bot-tom of that need is fear. Empower yourself. Learn to

smile indulgently and ignorehim or say calmly, “I guess wesimply disagree.” If you can cre-ate a different dynamic by refus-ing to be your brother’s favoritetarget, your entire relationshipcould evolve. Enlist his wife’shelp to keep visits pleasant.Whenever possible, see yournephew when your brother isn’taround. And they may both loveit if you offer to take the baby foran hour or so. Win-win.Dear Annie: I know you have

heard this before, but please tellmajor retailers to stock good-looking clothes for women size3X and larger — not those hor-rid blouses with prints that looklike they came from my grand-mother’s closet. I would love to buy a top that

has sleeves that fit and a neck-line that’s not trying to be sexyand to have choices in enoughstyles that I don’t have to buyfour of the same item in differ-ent colors. We have money to

spend on nice clothes if theywere offered. Stores manage to sell afford-

able clothes for skinny girls, sohow about the rest of us? Andplease don’t tell us to go to spe-cialty stores. I would like to findclothes in my size in any store.Wake up, corporate America!Americans are getting bigger.You can make lots of money ifyou offer decent clothes for bigwomen. — I Need NiceClothes, TooDear Need: Actually, there

are more stores carrying largersizes than ever before. And theselections range from inexpen-sive to pricey. There also aremultiple places online to findlarger sizes. There may not yetbe the same variety of styles andselections as there are for small-er sizes, but it’s much moreinclusive than it used to be. Themarket will go where the moneyis. It just takes time.Dear Annie: I sympathize

with “Regrets in Paradise,” the57-year-old woman who is in anunhappy marriage to a 61-year-old man. She discovered afterthey married that he isn’t thesame guy and simply wants herto take care of him.I am a 75-year-old widow of

six years. I have observed thatmost men my age are interestedin women 20 years younger. Ithink they are looking for a“nurse with a purse,” and I ambetter off as I am. For more than50 years, I waited on my hus-band and took care of himthrough his last illness. He wasthe father of my two children,and I would have done anythingfor him, but I have no intentionof going through that again. —Better Off Single Annie’s Mailbox is written

DAILY GLOBE

By Anthony L. Komaroff, M.D.DEAR DOCTOR K: What is tooth decay?Is it the same as a cavity?DEAR READER: Tooth decay is not thesame as a cavity -- but tooth decay canlead to the formation of a cavity.Tooth decay (also known as dentalcaries) originates with plaque, the sticky,bacteria-laden film that collects on yourteeth between brushings. In recent years,we've learned that many types of bacteriaproduce filmy substances that act like aprotective foam. Millions of bacteria livetogether inside the foam bubble they col-lectively have made. It's their house, andhelps them keep out threatening things.Protected from destruction by the film, thebacteria in plaque produce acid that grad-ually destroys the surface of the teeth.

When decay creates a hole in the enamel-- the hard outside layer of your tooth --this is a cavity.Here's a quick look at how tooth decayprogresses to cavity formation. (I've putan illustration of this process on my web-site, AskDoctorK.com.)(1) Cavity-causing bacteria accumulateon the teeth.(2) These bacteria produce acid that dis-solves the enamel surface of the teeth ina process called demineralization. Ordi-narily, the body has time to remineralize,or replenish the enamel. But whenenough bacteria accumulate, acid dis-solves enamel faster than the body canrebuild it. Tiny pits mar the surface of thetooth.(3) First-stage decay, the earliest stage ofdecay, appears as a white or brown areaon a tooth. This "white spot" is visible onlyto your dentist.(4) Unchecked, the acid eventually pene-trates the enamel and a cavity forms.If decay is caught early enough -- whileit's still an area of demineralization, or a"white spot" -- the tooth may be able to re-pair itself. Your dentist may be able tostop the decay to give your body achance to remineralize and repair thetooth:-- Fluoride applied to the teeth in the formof a gel or varnish can boost remineral-ization.-- Applying a gel or varnish containing a

powerful antiseptic can reduce the levelof cavity-causing bacteria in your mouth,slowing demineralization.-- Your dentist may apply a liquid plasticsealant to create a physical barrieragainst bacteria. Sealants can help evenafter there is evidence of decay.Once a cavity has formed, the emphasisshifts from prevention to restoration. Thetooth cannot at this point repair itself; yourdentist must correct the damage. Repairusually means cleaning out the area andfilling the cavity.We live in a world full of microbes. Some-times they ignore us, and sometimes theyprey on us. We have 13 trillion cells in ourbody, and we have 10 times 13 trillionbacteria living inside and on us all thetime. Some of them actually help us --such as gut bacteria that make vitaminsthat we need. Sometimes they lie waitingfor our defenses to falter and then attack.It's like that with tooth decay and cavities:It's best for us to keep a step or twoahead of them, through brushing andflossing and regular checkups.Dr. Komaroff is a physician and professorat Harvard Medical School.

First redouble, then a new suitBy Phillip Alder

Yesterday, we saw that if the open-er bids one of a suit, the next player makes a takeout double, and the re-sponder bids a lower-ranking suit at the two-level, this shows a weak hand. So, what does it mean if the responder redoubles first, then bids a new suit on the second round?

Right — logically, it must be forc-ing. The responder has promised at least 10 high-card points and the hunt is on for the right contract for the opening side.

In today’s deal, after responder’s three-club rebid, South might con-tinue with a three-diamond bid. Then North would presumably cue-bid three hearts to ask his partner to bid three no-trump with a heart stop-per. Here, of course, South would be happy to oblige. And, as in the given sequence, South just plunges straight into our favorite contract when we have game values but no major-suit fit. (Note that five clubs fails, but five diamonds makes.)

West leads the heart king. What should South do?

Unless the heart suit is blocked, if declarer loses a trick before he has taken nine, he rates to concede at least that lost trick and four hearts. So, South should concentrate on get-ting seven diamond winners.

After taking the first (or second) heart trick, South cashes the dia-mond ace. Then, when West discards, declarer must be careful to unblock dummy’s 10. Next, South leads a spade to the board, plays the dia-mond five to his nine, runs that suit, and cruises home with an overtrick.

Always watch the spot-cards close-ly to see if a suit blockage is threat-ened.

As temperatures drop and daylight is inshorter supply, we fight back: We crank upthe heat in our homes and turn on lights ear-lier and earlier. And yet we also want to keepour heating and electric bills as low as wecan.Can you keep your home warm and invit-

ing all winter while still conserving energy?Here, three home design experts offer

advice on how to keep things cozy while min-imizing energy use this winter. Their sugges-tions range from the traditional (there’s areason why your grandmother hung thoseheavy curtains in winter) to the high-tech,including a thermostat that can talk to youriPad.

Try new techMaxwell Ryan, founder of the popular

home décor website ApartmentTherapy.com,is a designer. John Colaneri, co-host ofHGTV’s “Kitchen Cousins,” is a constructionexpert who builds and remodels homes.Both offer identical pieces of advice about

staying warm while conserving power andsaving money: Swap out your old incandes-cent bulbs (and those swirly compact fluores-cent bulbs, too) for the new Cree brand LEDbulbs.“They can last longer than 10 years and

they use 84 percent less energy than incan-descents,” Ryan says. “They also aredimmable” and give a warm-looking light —a big change from the energy-saving compactfluorescents.“If you do the math on the LED,” he says,

the bulbs save you so much on electricity thatthey pay for themselves within a year andthen last about nine more years.Colaneri and Ryan also both advise home-

owners to replace old thermostats with newNest brand models. “They take 30 percent offyour bill each month,” Colaneri says. “Andthey look very high-tech and cool to display.”Nests are programmable “learning ther-

mostats,” which means they track yourhabits and adjust accordingly. They also con-

nect via Wi-Fi to check weather reportsonline, and you can control them remotelyfrom an iPad.There is new outdoor technology, as well.

On your deck or patio, designer Brian PatrickFlynn suggests adding a new propane-pow-ered space heater. The newest models arecost-effective and stylish, says Flynn, execu-tive producer of HGTV.com’s Holiday House.“They look like modern sculpture,” says

Flynn, “and many of them are under $500. Toensure my outdoor spaces stay warm duringthe winter, I keep modern, 7-foot tall spaceheaters in my covered outdoor living room.They’re on wheels, so it’s easy to move themaround to wherever people are seated. Andonce lit, the glass tubes which contain theflame from the propane tank put on a gor-geous show.”

Embrace upholsteryWarm, cozy upholstery fabrics work on a

practical level by holding your warmth whenyou touch or sit on them. But Ryan points outthat they also work visually: A room full ofsoft, warm fabrics will give you a psychologi-cal sense of warmth that adds to your enjoy-ment.So add thick throw blankets to chairs and

sofas, and swap out silk-covered pillows andeven lampshades for ones covered in thicker,nubbier fabrics like muslin and burlap.Ryan also recommends using thick cur-

tains in winter. A decade ago, he says, “cur-tains were considered fusty and old-fash-ioned and expensive.” But with so manybeautiful, inexpensive curtains availabletoday, they’ve become popular again.Besides adding color or a bold pattern to a

room, curtains also block cold air that mightleak in around windows. And they mufflesound from outside, which Ryan says helpsmake rooms feel more insulated in winter.“Curtains,” he says, “aren’t just for your

grandparents anymore.”The same technique can help warm up

outdoor spaces. Flynn recommends Sunbrel-la’s outdoor velveteen fabric for chairs andsofas. He also likes thick, woven blends.

“Velveteen is amazing for the outdoors,”he says, “since it’s warm and fuzzy.”

Light the fireCrackling flames in an indoor fireplace

can change the feel of a room instantly. Andoutdoors, they bring a welcome infusion ofheat and light on a winter evening.“Outdoor fireplaces are increasingly more

and more popular, coast to coast,” Flynnsays. “They’re not all that much of anexpense like an outdoor kitchen would be.”If you’re building a new outdoor fireplace,

leave ample room for seating. “Many timeshomeowners have outdoor fireplaces built,but there’s only enough room for a smalltable or two chairs. What’s the point, people?The whole idea is to gather and stay cozy out-doors,” Flynn says.He suggests planning “at least 12-by-14

feet of space around the front of the fireplaceto ensure a sofa and loveseat as well as a cof-fee table and end tables will fit.”

Lay down rugsGleaming hardwood or tile floors are love-

ly in spring and summer. But in cold weath-er, add a thick rug or swap out a thin one forsomething heavier. This will not only warmyour feet, but also change the look and soundof your space.“When acoustics are dampened,” Ryan

says, “the room feels warmer.”An outdoor rug can have the same impact.

“Thick outdoor area rugs are made ofacrylic/wool blends,” Flynn says. “The woolfeels great on your feet and definitely locks inwarmth.”

Improve your circulationThis last tip, shared by Maxwell Ryan,

comes from a conversation he had years agowith home décor guru Martha Stewart. Sheadvised him to run his ceiling fans backwardin winter to push warm air back down alongthe walls of the room.If you don’t have ceiling fans, Ryan sug-

gests adding one or two for energy savingsand added comfort year-round.

NEW YORK (AP) — There’sno shortage of buzz about bee-keeping these days.From environmentalists wor-

ried about disappearing coloniesto foodies seeking locallysourced liquid gold, lots of newbeekeepers are itching to rolldown their sleeves.With cities like New York

lifting beekeeping bans, andwith a wealth of new books,online videos and meet-upgroups, learning the basics iseasier than ever.But as a hobbyist beekeeper

myself, who once moved a hivefull of bees from Washington,D.C., to New York during acareer change, I can also tellyou that the sweet rewards ofhomemade honey don’t comewithout some sticky practicalchallenges.One of those, of course, is fac-

ing the bees themselves.“You can learn 99 percent of

beekeeping on YouTube, butyou need to know that whenyou’re actually there and you’redigging into a box filled with50,000 stinging insects, thatyou’re good with that,” saidChase Emmons, managing part-ner and apiary director atBrooklyn Grange, a rooftopfarm in New York that offerssome hands-on training at itshives.Whether you’re creating a

small business or just planningto enjoy your own honey, hereare some realistic pointers onthe money, space and neighbor-ly grace required of a beekeeper.

Location, location, locationWhere you keep your bees is

an important part of how tokeep them. A sunny, out-of-the-way spot with good drainage isbest. Scope out a location thatwon’t trip up unsuspectingneighbors, curious pets orrepairmen.Your hive should also be con-

venient for frequent inspec-tions. Remember you’ll be carry-ing equipment and removingheavy boxes of honey at harvesttime. If you have to scale a rick-ety roof ladder to see your bees,you might be tempted to neglectyour duties.Make sure your landlord is

on board and beekeeping islegal in your city. Then takesome time to sell the idea toyour neighbors. Emmons recom-mends coming armed with a fewjars of honey to sweeten thedeal.“The last thing you need is

unhappy neighbors,” he said.“You can catch more flies withhoney.”

Not just a walk in the parkThe good news is you don’t

have to hire a bee sitter whenyou leave town on vacation.Once the hive is up and run-ning, the bees are quite self-suf-ficient in their daily needs. But

preventing pests and swarms,as well as extracting honey, willrequire some time and evensome hard, physical work overthe course of the year.A deep hive chamber full of

honey can weigh as much as 90pounds, and actively managingyour hive will require liftingand maneuvering those bulkyboxes. You’ll also be suiting upin heavy clothing and workingin the hot sun.As a new beekeeper, you

should make time to attend aclass or meet-up group on top ofyour bee yard work. You mighteven meet a potential partner tohelp you shoulder the load.

Honey moneyBefore you take gold out of

your hive, you’ll have to putsome in. It might cost youaround $400 to get set withwooden hive equipment, toolsand the bees themselves,though much of your equipmentcan be used for several yearsbefore being replaced.Shop around before ordering,

and appraise deluxe, all-in-onekits carefully. They may be eas-ier than buying equipment a lacarte but they often include sup-plies you don’t really need. If you’re handy, you’ll also

find ample specs online forbuilding some of your ownequipment.When it comes to purchasing,

there’s strength in numbers.Joining a bee group is a goodway to get in on cheaper bulkorders or shipping discounts,swap used equipment and passthe hat on big purchases, likepricey honey extracting equip-ment.

Scratching the itchUsing good practices and

inspecting the hive at appropri-ate times can go a long waytoward minimizing stings. Butthey will happen from time totime.Assuming you don’t have a

severe allergy to apitoxin, thevenom in honey-bee stings, theworst you’ll have to endure issome local pain, itching andswelling that’s treatable withover-the-counter medicine.If you’re afraid of bee stings,

remember it’s OK to go heavyon the protective clothing if itencourages you to visit the hive,especially while you’re gettingused to handling the bees. Don’tlet beekeeper machismo intimi-date you into doing hive inspec-tions in a T-shirt if it makes younervous.In general, be flexible to try-

ing a different approach if yoursisn’t working.“When you have 10 beekeep-

ers in a room, you’re going tohave 12 opinions. Humans havebeen doing it for 10,000 yearsand there are really strong opin-ions,” Emmons said. “Go withwhat you’re comfortable with.”

To bee? Hobbyisthives requiretime, money

Associated Press

BEEKEEPER KELLENHenry checks her smoker before conducting a hiveinspection at a Feedback Farms hive in Myrtle Village Green communi-ty garden in the Bedford-Stuyvesant section of Brooklyn, in New York.The smoke calms the bees during the inspection. Though New Yorkreversed a long-standing ban on tending to honeybees in 2010, thereare issues beyond legality that potential beekeepers should consider.Beekeeping, especially in an urban area, requires space, time andcooperation with the surrounding community.

Simple steps to a home both cozy, cost-efficient
