THE PAPERby Danielle Swan
After 29 years inthe insurance busi-ness and 15 yearswith AmericanFamily Insurance,Lynn Huber’s lastday before retire-ment will be April 30.Huber’s insurancecareer began inAugust 1981.“I was kind of in
between jobs at thattime and I saw BobElrod, Farm Bureaumanager, out at thefair,” Huber recalls.“He walked up to meand asked if I’d beinterested in sellinginsurance, I neverthought it would lastthis long.”During his career,
Huber has workedfor Farm Bureau,Nationwide, WabashInsurance and final-ly, American Family. “We’ve had a lot of
success withAmerican Family.We have been JDPowers Award win-ners for five straightyears,” he said. Inaddition to the JDPowers Award,Huber’s agency hasreceived numerousother awards forbeing number one inthe state in variousareas.While working in
the insurance indus-try, Huber has expe-rienced a continu-ously changing busi-ness landscape.“Computers really
didn’t start cominginto the insuranceindustry until ’91, ’92and ’93,” Huber said.“At one of the agen-cies I worked with,we had a Tandy 1000.The watch I’m wear-ing today has morememory than thatold Tandy 1000. Wewould get all of ourupdates and manualson these floppy disksand we just hadboxes and boxes ofthose things.“When I first start-
ed with FarmBureau, everythinghad to be mailed in –
claims, auto applica-tions, property poli-cies – they all had tobe mailed toI n d i a n a p o l i s .Unfortunately, therewere always somesurprises. Someonewould tell you theyhad no accidents orspeeding tickets soyou write the policy,you send it in andyou find out twoweeks later that it’sbeen rejected.”During these
changes, Huber saysAmerican Familyhas strived to main-tain a high level ofcustomer service,which Huber’sagency has excelledat. In fact, Huberconsiders his person-al contact withclients to be one ofthe main highlightsof his career.“We have a lot of
nice, nice peopleinsured here and itreally goes beyondknowing what carsthey have or if theyhave homeowners’insurance or lifeinsurance,” he said.“We have found that,over the years, some-body will sit downand before longyou’re talking abouttheir kids or theirgrandkids. It’s justgetting to know thepeople and becomingfamiliar with themand being on a first-name basis withthem. It’s not likecalling an 800 num-ber.”
Another highlightfor Huber has beenseveral companytrips that he quali-fied for as a result ofhis hard work.“We have gone
every place fromHawaii to Florida toArizona and it’s alljust for doing yourjob. You get rewardedfor doing your job,”he said.During retirement,
Huber and his wife,Karen, a retiredteacher, plan to con-tinue this traveling.“We’re going to
take off for awhile
and leave the cellphone at home.When you’restrapped down to anagency, it’s like anyother business. It’sjust an enormousamount of responsi-bility and we’ve got-ten away for a weekor so on companytrips, but that’s goingto change real short-ly. My standingorders will be: if it’snot broken, bleedingor on fire, don’t callus,” he joked.On April 30, Huber
will hand over thereigns to Tim andMellanie Geerling,and while he looksforward to beingrelieved of theresponsibility of theagency, he will stillbe in the picture.“My wife and I are
going to come backas part-time CSRswith Tim. We’regoing to stick aroundwith Tim for a yearor two and continuejust keeping ourhands in the busi-ness. It’s tough towalk away from it,but I’m looking for-ward to a little lessstress and strain,” hesaid.Huber feels that
the agency will con-tinue to do well inthe hands of theGeerlings.“Melanie has been
with me now goingon seven years andTim will have myexperience and mywife’s to back himup. They are verygood, talented peo-ple,” he said. “It’sbeen a good run, it’sbeen a successfulrun, and I’m gladwe’re in a situationwhere we can passthis on to Tim.“I think Bobby
Knight is the onethat said ‘Go out awinner’, and I feelthat, after all theseyears, it’s been agood career and it’stime to give it over tothe younger legs andthe younger people.
Lynn Huber prepares for retirement
AFTER 29 YEARS IN THE INSURANCE INDUSTRY, Lynn Huber, American Family Insurance,will be retiring on April 30. He plans to spend time traveling following his retirement. His businesswill be turned over to Tim and Mellanie Geerling. (photo provided)
by Danielle [email protected] March 5, leaders of Ivy
Tech Community College metwith a group of communitymembers to discuss optionsregarding the possibility of anew facility for the WabashIvy Tech campus. The meet-ing, hosted by Richard Ford,was attended by StephenAllen, executive director ofWabash Marketplace; DaveDorais, Dorais Chevy, Buick,GMC; Bill Konyha, presidentand CEO of EconomicDevelopment Group ofWabash County; Marsh Davis,president of IndianaLandmarks; Mayor RobertVanlandingham; and severalothers. The primary purpose for
the meeting was to apprise theIvy Tech officials of the optionof locating the new campus inHistoric Downtown Wabash.Parker Beauchamp, president
of Wabash Marketplace,worked to dispel any concernsthe officials may have.“There is almost 30 to 40
percent more passers-by in theDowntown area as there areon U.S. 24,” he said. “We havefound spaces Downtown thatcould potentially hold 800 to1,200 vehicles.”He also mentioned that he
felt public support of aDowntown project would begreater than that of a projecton U.S. 24, which translatesinto financial support.Some of the main issues
with the current location at277 N. Thorne St., Wabash, areparking and a need for a newtesting center. In addition tosolving these issues, a newlocation would provideexpanded opportunities forclasses and programming.“A lot of our current stu-
dents are traveling to otherregions for classes that they
can’t get at Wabash,” said PamGuthrie, dean of the Wabashcampus. “I’m really con-cerned about our studentsbecause I think with gasprices going up, it’s going tobecome even more difficult forthem to finish up theirdegrees.”More than likely, a new cam-
pus would also result ingrowth of Wabash Ivy Tech’senrollment. One Ivy Tech offi-cial referenced the newLogansport facility, whoseenrollment jumped from 600 to1,400 after their new facilitywas completed. They also dis-cussed the fact that some four-year universities are willingto come into the local campus-es and allow students to com-plete an entire four-yeardegree just minutes from theirhomes.“Our numbers in Wabash
are lower than state levels in

AT THORNE INSURANCE AGENCY, INC., one Top Sales ProducerAward is given out each year over all Thorne Insurance locations. Thisaward is earned by being the top sales producer within the company forstandard written property and casualty business for that year. David B.Callahan excelled in 2011 in new written business and earned the award.Callahan is a co-anchor/manager for both Wabash office locations. This isa very hard award to win, and it takes many hours outside of the officeboth working and networking with people to accomplish sales at this high-er level. Kevin Killen, owner of Thorne Insurance, said, “I am very proudof David and the work ethic he has portrayed to win this award. There arenot many insurance agents out there that will go the extra mile for the cus-tomer like he will. He is an excellent independent insurance agent!” (photoprovided)
Dear editor,The headline story
in the Wabash PlainDealer, “U.S. to stay inAfghanistan”, is thereason for this ques-tion: Why?The British and the
Russians gave up thewar in that hostileenvironment. TheUnited States hasbeen eight years withthe same bitter end insight. Representativedemocracy is almostimpossible to be creat-
ed, in a thousand-year-old Moslem trib-al culture.The enemy wears
no uniform, disre-gards the rules ofwar, knows the coun-try, it is their home-land. They havefought with eachother for centuries,and unite to fight anyoutside force.Far too much blood
and treasure havebeen invested in thiswar. The brave men
and women in thearmed forces mustfight with one eye onthe enemy and lookout for lawsuits andfear of trials for somenew rule is in place.The latest example ofthis mad conflict isthe Koran Disposal.President Obama
apologized toPresident Karzai,look at the result!Servicemen mur-dered, riots, threats of
trials by Afghans ofthose U.S. Militaryresponsible for theburning of religiousmaterial.If the United States
cannot keep the bor-der with Mexicosecure, why are westill waging a warwith no clear objec-tive and no end insight?

educational attain-ment and they are
higher as far as freeand reduced lunches,so we have a lot ofneed for education inWabash County,”Guthrie said. Financial support
of this project, whichcould cost $12 million,is a key issue, as fund-ing from the state islimited. As the onlystatewide communitycollege in the country,Ivy Tech is in aunique position
because they do notreceive local fundingas most communitycolleges would. The campus will be

The Fair BoardAssociation and the4-H Council ofWabash Countyrecently received$700 checks from theWabash CountyHospital Foundationas result of dona-tions to its Harvestfor Health program.Harvest for Health isadministrated by theWabash CountyHospital (WCH)Foundation, who dis-tributes 100 percentof the cash and cropgifts to the FairBoard Assoc., the 4-HCouncil of WabashCounty and theoncology services ofWabash CountyHospital.
In addition to cash
donors, county farm-ers are encouragedto donate cropsthrough the pro-gram. Tax benefits ofdonating cropsinclude a possiblereduction in federalincome tax as well ass e l f - emp loymen tsocial security taxes.
“We are striving toincrease crop dona-tions among ourfarming communityand increase aware-ness of the tax bene-fits. Farmers maydonate cropsthrough POET, LouisDreyfus in Claypoolor any WabashCounty elevator.They simply ask thebuyer to arrange aportion of their cropas a donation toHarvest for Health intheir name,” saidSusan Floor, Harvestfor Health chair.
“100% of everyHarvest for Healthgift is staying inWabash County tosupport these threeworthy organiza-tions. That’s impor-
tant to many donorswho are learninghow little is returnedto our county afterdonating to nationalorganizations,” addsKaren Newhouse,
WCH Foundationdirector.

The CommunityFoundation ofWabash County(CFWC) recentlyannounced a prelimi-nary report of itsstrategic plan.According to BonnieIngraham, 2011 boardpresident, strategicplanning at the boardlevel has been moti-vated by several fac-tors. In November, theLilly Endowmentrequired theFoundation to submita “look back” reportregarding the impactof the SustainingR e s o u r c eDevelopment, (SRD)grant, which theCFWC received in2005 and completed in2009. The Endowmentasked the CFWC toconsider the long-term effectiveness ofasset developmentstrategies initiated bythe SRD grant.
Secondly, a strate-gic plan is required inorder to be found incompliance with theCouncil onFoundations NationalStandards for U.S.C o m m u n i t yFoundations. TheStandards auditrequires submissionof copious docu-ments, including poli-cies and strategic andoperational narra-tives that demon-strate compliance to41 standards of excel-lence across six criti-cal areas of communi-ty foundation opera-tions. Foundationsare required to recon-firm their complianceevery five years. TheC o m m u n i t yFoundation ofWabash County waslast found in compli-ance in November2007.
And finally, theplanning sessionswere motivated byconsiderable changesin CFWC leadershipand staff over the lastseveral years.
Says Ingraham,
“the board is verycommitted to movingforward and to ana-lyzing how to fulfillits mission to servethe county. Sinceearly December, wehave engaged in sevenfacilitated sessionswith consultant MikeStone, of ImpactStrategies Inc. Thediscussions are criti-cal to evaluating howto best utilize our lim-ited grant-makingresources, and to ana-lyzing our leadershipand staff needs. “
Strategic findingsto date include thedevelopment of thefollowing positionstatements regardingasset development,grant making andcommunity leader-ship. Strategic priori-ties, performancegoals and work planswill be developedfrom the positionstatements.
In asset develop-ment, the Foundationaffirms the charitablewishes of individualdonors as the basis ofits asset developmentactivity. Specific assetdevelopment activi-ties of the Foundationwill be guided by a setof priorities related todonor categories andfund types.
In programming,the Foundation com-mits to the expansionof its programmaticrole by becomingmore intentional inidentifying andaddressing key com-munity needs andopportunities.
In leadership, theFoundation commitsto an expansion of itscommunity leader-ship role by integrat-ing its asset develop-ment and program-matic capabilities toenhance its communi-ty impact.
The CFWC Boardwill continue to devel-op the plan throughmid-summer. PattyGrant has accepted
the position of execu-tive director.
“I am pleased to bea part of the staff ofthe CommunityFoundation at thistime,” says Grant. “Iappreciate the verythoughtful delibera-tions of every boardmember. Communityfoundations varygreatly in the relativeattention and weightthey place on thethree components ofservice — program,development and con-vening. The planningconversations haveafforded serious con-versations about howbest to serve the coun-ty.”
Grant contributesover 20 years of com-munity foundationexperience. Shejoined the Foundationboard in 1989 andserved as chair ofdevelopment and mar-keting committeesduring each of thefirst four phases ofLilly Endowment’sGIFT (Giving IndianaFunds for Tomorrow)Initiatives, and asFoundation ED dur-ing the last, GIFTphase V. The GIFTInitiatives con-tributed more than $5million to endowmentassets. Patty lead thecreation of WabashCounty’s LillyE n d o w m e n tC o m m u n i t y
Scholarship programand the county-wideLEARN MORE essaycontest. In 1999, shelead the CFWC’sCAPE (CommunityAlliance to PromoteEducation) core teamwhich produced a $5million award win-ning grant proposal toLilly Endowment toaddress educationalattainment in WabashCounty. From 2004-06,Grant worked as acontract consultantwith IndianaG r a n t m a k e r sA l l i a n c e ,Indianapolis, as astandards reviewer ofother Indiana commu-nity foundations. Sherejoined the board ofthe CommunityFoundation in 2005.

Dear editor,Where did it go? I
ask you, where did itgo? Where did com-mon sense go? Gone,but not forgotten.In my over 88 years,
I never thought Iwould see such adivided America withthe political leader-ship in the hands ofspoiled and pamperedplutocrats blowinghot air.The general popula-
tion consists of thehaves against thehave-nots - no middleground.The country is
filled with foreclosed,overpriced real estate.Store prices are goingthrough the roof.They are sellingimported merchan-dise produced byalmost slave labor.
This great Americais held hostage byOPEC manipulatedcrude prices.American refiners ofcrude into car gas arereporting record prof-its every quarter fromwindfall-pricing oftheir products. Pricesare being set on thetelephone.Store prices are
going through theroof while our electedrepresentatives argueover contraceptivesand birth control. Ledby large worldwidechurches who are inno position to throwstones on anything. Folks, be prepared
for that trumpetsound because that’sone thing, for sure,you are going to hear.

Dear editor,Hoosiers deserve
better than what theIndiana Senate did asit carved away protec-tion from secondhandsmoke for thousandsof workers, passing amultitude of amend-ments to House Bill1149. Healthy workers
are the backbone of ahealthy economy, andmore than 70 percentof them support asmoke-free law thatincludes all work-places, bars andrestaurants. TheSenate battled to pro-tect them. If this billbecomes law as it iswritten, it would be
one of the weakest inthe nation. The bill will be sent
back to the House fora vote. Hopefully theywill be able tostrengthen it before itbecomes law. We cannot give up
yet. It is importantthat we keep in touchwith our legislators tolet them know howimportant it is to havea comprehensive lawin order to keep allHoosiers safe andhealthy.Why do some
Hoosiers deserve to beprotected and othersdon’t?

Americans have ahealthy appetite fornew televisions, com-puters, cell phonesand other electronicg a d g e t s .Subsequently, it’s like-ly that an old or obso-lete item or two is col-lecting dust some-where in your base-ment or garage. Someunwanted electronicseven find their finalresting place in thegarbage. In early 2011, an
Indiana state law(Indiana Code 13-20.5)went into effect pro-hibiting the disposalof unwanted electron-ics with municipalwaste that is intendedfor disposal at a land-fill or intended for dis-posal by burning orincineration. To help the citizens
of Wabash complywith this eco-con-scious legislation,Indianapolis-basedRecycleForce will col-lect outdated and bro-ken-down electronicson March 10th, in theparking lot of the Big
R from 10 a.m. to 2p.m. The not-for-profit
recycler will also col-lect non-electronicrecyclables at theevent. For a full list ofaccepted items, visitrecycleforce.org.In addition to recy-
cling collection,RecycleForce pro-vides life-changingworkforce training toformerly incarceratedindividuals. Thesocial enterprise recy-cles the materials anddisposes of the wastesafely and cleanly.The scrap metals andother reusable materi-als collected in thisprocess are sold tohelp pay for job train-ing programs andemployment opportu-nities for formerlyincarcerated men andwomen in order tosupport their re-entryback into society.Residents of Wabashcan help these indi-viduals by donatingtheir unwanted elec-tronics and otherrecyclables.

Indiana conserva-tion officers are inves-tigating a report of twoferal hogs that werenear U.S. 20 and CR 12in Middlebury, ElkhartCounty. According towitness, at approxi-mately 5:15 p.m. awoman came home tofind that there was apig in her yard. As shewent to enter herhouse, the pig cametowards her. She con-tacted her brother whoarrived and found thatthere were in fact twoferal hogs with approx-imately three-inchtusks and looked veryshaggy. The brothercontacted IndianaConservation OfficerSeth Owens and wasadvised that feral hogswere nuisance animalsand could be destroyedby the landowner orwritten permissiongiven to destroy theanimals. Both feralhogs were destroyed.
Officer Owens wouldlike to comment thatthis is not a normal sit-uation and more infor-mation is available onthe DNR website aboutferal hogs. Further, anysightings of feral hogsshould be reported tothe DNR.What are wild hogs?
“Wild hogs”, alsocalled “wild pigs”,“wild boar” or “feralpigs”, are among themany names that referto non-native swineand various hybridsthat have either beenillegally released orwere formerly domes-tic pigs allowed tobecome feral through-out many states,including Indiana.Wild hogs includedomestic hogs thathave acclimated to liv-ing in a wild or free-roaming environment,were born in the wild,are free-roaming with-out any visible tags,
markings, or havebehavioral characteris-tics that would indicatea domestic state or pri-vate ownership, orhave skeletal charac-teristics indicative of awild or Eurasian ori-gin as defined in 312IAC 9-3-18.6.Can a person legally
kill a wild hog inIndiana? A landowner,tenant or other personwith written permis-sion of the landownercan shoot or trap a wildhog on that landown-er’s private propertywithout a permit. Besure to check localordinances beforeusing a firearm. Iftrapped, the hog mustbe killed at the trap siteor euthanized immedi-ately after moving itfrom the trap site.However, wild hogscannot be offered forcompensation of anykind for hunting ortaking purposes and
cannot be released intothe wild. A person can-not charge a service feefor shooting, trappingor removing a wild hogfrom private propertyunless the person has anuisance wild animalcontrol permit fromthe Division of Fishand Wildlife. The Indiana
Department of NaturalResources, in coopera-tion with the USDA-APHIS WildlifeServices and theIndiana State Board ofAnimal Health(BOAH), are workingwith impactedlandowners in provid-ing technical informa-tion to control wild hogpopulations. TheIDNR, BOAH, andUSDA-APHIS WildlifeServices do not provideinformation on whereto hunt wild hogs inIndiana as part of thiscooperative work withlandowners.

What happened towinter? For manyMidwest residents,temperatures in the30s and 40s - not tomention 50s and 60s -are a relief after thepast several years ofheavy snow, icestorms and brutallycold temperatures.David Call, a Ball
State meteorologyprofessor, believesthis winter may go inthe record books.“Mild conditions
are expected to persistinto early spring,”Call says.“Indianapolis is cur-rently on track for thewarmest winter in adecade and the leastsnowy winter sincethe early 1980s, andthere’s no significantcold or snow in theforecast. More
r e m a r k a b l y ,Indianapolis has notexperienced a singletemperature readingto 10 degrees or lowerthis season.”But, he points out,
while the lower U.S.states are enjoying amild winter, the sameis not true for Alaskaand Eastern Europe,which have had thecoldest temperaturesand record snowfallin decades.Call says we have
seen some impact of aLa Nina, a PacificOcean cooling phe-nomenon that affectsweather around theworld and usuallycauses major wintersnowstorms acrossthe Midwest. But,other oscillationscloser to home, suchas the North AtlanticOscillation have driv-
en the jet stream wellnorth and sent thecold elsewhere.“The NAO has been
unusually and consis-tently positive thiswinter, which kept theeastern U.S. cold andEurope cold. Youmight not have heardmuch about it beforethis season becauseit’s usually more vari-able, plus it’s difficultto predict more than afew days in advance.But because it’s closerto the eastern U.S., itultimately has a muchbigger impact on ourweather.”
It could be the mildestwinter since early 1980s

Indiana DNRDirector Robert E.Carter Jr. has signed atemporary rule thatestablishes a limit onthe number of hooksallowed on a rig or lurearray used for sportfishing, essentiallymaking so-calledumbrella rigs legal
through the remainderof this year.Until recently,
umbrella rigs were atraditional saltwatertrolling apparatus usedeffectively in the north-eastern United Statesto catch striped bassand bluefish, accordingto Ken Smith’s Fishing
Encyclopedia.The rig is an umbrel-
la-shaped frame ofmultiple wires fromwhich lures or hooksare attached. It isdesigned to resemble aschool of baitfish.Professional bass
fisherman Paul Eliastriggered a frenzyamong freshwateranglers when he used aversion of the appara-tus, The Alabama Rig,to win an FLW Seriesnational tournamentin October. Eliascaught a 20-fish limitweighing more than100 pounds to beat hisclosest challenger by 17pounds and earn thetournament’s $100,000first-place prize.Bass Anglers
Sportsmen Society(BASS), the FLW’s rivaltour, announced inJanuary that umbrellarigs cannot be used inthe Bassmaster Classicor the Bassmaster EliteSeries.In the meantime,
states have been scram-bling to see if umbrellarigs fall inside or out-side of their fishing
regulations.Indiana’s existing
rules do not adequatelydescribe whether ornot umbrella rigs arelegal. IndianaAdministrative Code312 IAC 9-7-2 statesthat “an individualmay take fish with notmore than three poles,hand lines, or tip-upsat a time...(and) anindividual must affixto each line not morethan: two hooks, twoharnesses for usewith live bait, or twoartificial baits.The ambiguity with
the umbrella rig iswhether it should bedefined as one lurewith many parts ormany lures on singleline.As DNR officials
continue to study theissue, the temporaryrule adds a fourthoption to the existingregulation that allows“one rig or lure arrayfor use with multipleartificial baits withnot more than fivehooks.” The temporary rule

“This gives Hoosieranglers an opportuni-ty to gain first-handexperience with theuse and effectiveness,or drawbacks, of howumbrella rigs actuallyperform,” Carter said.“It also gives the DNRtime to gather infor-mation on what, ifany, future definitionsor restrictions need tobe considered.”The temporary rule
does not apply to troutand salmon streamsthat are tributaries ofLake Michigan or tothe St. Joseph Riverdownstream of theTwin Branch Dam inMishawaka. The regulations on

THE PAPER
Examining bulls forreproductive sound-ness is important asbreeding seasonapproaches, says aPurdue Extensionbeef specialist.Veterinarians spe-
cializing in reproduc-tion typically performthe exams. They eval-uate physical sound-ness, reproductiveorgans and semenquality and offer beefproducers a chance todetermine if bullshave any injuries orconditions that mightprevent them frombreeding cows in thespring.“Virgin bulls are
among the mostimportant for produc-ers to have testedbecause up to 10 per-cent of those animalscould have reproduc-tive issues,” said RonLemenager. “Youngbulls seem to be morevulnerable to changesin the environment,nutrition and diseasethat can affect semenquality. A majority ofour producers areusing relativelyyoung bulls, so it’simportant for them tohave those animalsevaluated.”During the exams,
semen quality, volumeand motility will beevaluated. The examprovider also will pal-pate reproductiveorgans and check forany problems such asswelling, adhesions,hair rings or warts.Young bulls that maynot have obtainedpuberty will be evalu-ated for reproductivematurity, as well.Lemenager recom-
mends that producershave their bulls evalu-ated 30-45 days beforethe start of breedingseason since it takesabout 60 days to pro-duce viable semen.Any condition thatincreases body tem-
perature can result inlower semen qualityand/or temporarysterility.“Normally we talk
about evaluating bullsa month to 45 daysbefore breeding sothat if they fail theexam, there is time tore-evaluate them,” hesaid. “If they fail asecond time, produc-ers then have achance to find areplacement and stillget cows bred ontime.”Lemenager also
said that with the cur-rent status of theindustry, breedingsoundness exams areworth the cost.“With the price of
cattle and feeds rightnow, these exams arevery cost-effective,”he said. “We want toget cows bred andcalving on time.”Several Purdue
Extension countyoffices will offer bullbreeding soundnessevaluations in Marchand April. They are:- Orange County,
