Local food, festivities draw thousands to Watson Park

By Chris Hong chong@ljworld.com

Lawrence residents gathered at Watson Park, Seventh and Kentucky streets, Monday afternoon to enjoy live music, eat local food and, more than likely, sweat through their clothes.

It was a hot Fourth of July this year, with temperatures approaching 90, and many of the hundreds of people at the Lawrence Originals Party in the Park sought out shade. Bluegrass music blared from the stage as children ran in the grass, while others grabbed food from one of the 19 booths serving food from Lawrence restaurants. There was also a three-legged race for Please see FESTIVITIES, page 2A

When gasoline prices were lower in Topeka than Lawrence this spring, drivers started taking notice.

Several weeks later, when gasoline prices along Interstate 70 and in small towns like Perry and Linwood dropped well below what Lawrence gasoline station were charging, people became angry.

“It is crazy,” said John Benson, who watched as prices in nearby cities fell while Lawrence’s barely budged. “What is frustrating a lot of people in Lawrence and a lot of people who come to work in Lawrence is: Why is Lawrence’s gasoline so high?”

Benson’s question is one that many have asked across town.

In May, for example, the price of gasoline was 16 cents higher per gallon in Lawrence than Topeka.

Since then, the price has come down, but the gap between Lawrence and Topeka remained.

According to AAA’s Fuel Price Finder, the average price of gasoline in Lawrence was $3.39 a gallon on Friday afternoon. That was 5 cents higher than Topeka and 2 cents higher than Perry.

The disparity was greater a week ago, when gasoline prices in Topeka and in smaller towns such as Tonganoxie were at least 20 cents lower.

“I could drive to Perry, which is less than 10 miles away, and get it a lot cheaper,” Benson said.

Competitive market Part of the answer has more to do with the market in Topeka than Lawrence.

Gary Haag, vice president of Haag Oil Company, owns two gas stations in Lawrence and about a dozen in Topeka.

“Well, Topeka is going through a shakedown over here,” Haag said.

Kwik Shop has opened two new stores in Topeka, several grocery stores have opened filling stations, and there have been a couple of other gas stations that were closed and then reopened.

“There’s at least seven brand new large-format stores that have opened in Topeka and are pricing aggressively,” Haag said.

As a result, gas stations in Topeka are pricing gasoline at or below cost.

Increased competition seems to be a reasonable explanation for Jim Hanni, executive vice president of AAA Kansas. Hanni, who commutes Please see GASOLINE, page 2A

Tritium leaks found at many nuclear power plant sites

By Jeff Donn Associated Press Writer

BRACEVILLE , I LL . — Radioactive tritium has leaked from three-quarters of U.S. commercial nuclear power sites, often into groundwater from corroded, buried piping, an Associated Press investigation shows.

The number and severity of the leaks has been escalating, even as federal regulators extend the licenses of more and more reactors across the nation.

Tritium, which is a radioactive form of hydrogen, has leaked from at least 48 of 65 sites, according to U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission records reviewed as part of the AP’s yearlong

L AWRENCE J OURNAL -WORLD

Aviation industry balks at attack on aircraft tax breaks WICHITA (AP ) — President Barack Obama’s proposal to eliminate tax breaks for corporate aircraft isn’t flying so well in a city that calls itself the air capital of the world.

Obama told reporters last week he backs killing the incentive for corporations to buy their own aircraft as part of efforts to cut the deficit.

“Before we ask our seniors to pay more for health care, before we cut our children’s education, before we sacrifice our commitment to the research and innovation that will create more jobs in the economy, I think it’s only fair to ask an oil company or a corporate jet owner that has done so well to give up that tax break that no other business enjoys,” Obama said.

Industry officials bristled

at the prospect.

“It’s one of the few exporting industries that we have, with high-value, high-paying jobs,” said Shawn Vick, executive vice president at Hawker Beechcraft, told The Wichita Eagle. “If the focus is on reining in spending in Washington, which programs are not adding value? Why are we electing to damage the manufacturing infrastructure? It just doesn’t make sense.”

The industry produces $150 billion economic impact and employs 1.2 million people, according to the General Aviation Manufacturers Association.

“That’s huge,” said Danielle Boudreau, director of public relations for Bombardier Business Aircraft. “This is critical stimulus, and more

and more is being exported internationally out of the U.S.” A joint letter of protest was sent to Obama from Peter Bunce, president and CEO of the General Aviation Manufacturers Association, and Tom Buffenbarger, international president of the Machinists union.

In it, they say they are perplexed at Obama’s proposal in light of a March speech by Secretary of Transportation Ray LaHood praising the industry for helping the administration meet its goal of doubling exports within five years.

“While such talk may appear to some as good politics, the reality is that it hurts one of the leading manufacturing and exporting industries in the United States,” Bunce and Buffenbarger wrote.

“

Prices have risen dramatically, and we absolutely understand CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A their frustrations. If between Lawrence and Tope- consumers feel like they ka, has kept an eye on the are being gouged, file a price difference. complaint.”

“There hasn’t been a lot of new convenience stores put into the Lawrence market lately, so it’s not quite as hypercompetitive as a market as it may be over (in Topeka),” he said.

Roller-coaster prices While competition would explain the difference between the Lawrence and Topeka gas stations, it doesn’t justify why Lawrence has higher prices than the smaller towns around it.

Haag said that might have to do with the fact that Lawrence gets most of its gasoline from the Kansas City refineries, which are required to have gasoline that carries summer blends that result in fewer emissions. And while Lawrence isn’t required to use those summer blends, its gasoline supply could still be affected by it.

On top of that, Haag said, the price gas stations have to pay for gasoline has been on a roller coaster this summer.

“We have had five days in the last two months when it went up or down more than it did on Hurricane Katrina (when prices went up 17 cents),” Haag said.

If an owner of a smaller gas station buys gasoline at a time when prices are at their peak, they can be stuck at that price for days. Larger gasoline stations have an easier time absorbing the shifts in the market.

Price gouging?

Some, including Benson, don’t buy those explanations.

He and others have used words such as price fixing, gouging and monopoly to describe how they think gasoline prices are being set in Lawrence.

Such accusations are hard to prove in court, said Jeff Wagaman, deputy chief of staff for the Kansas Attorney General’s office.

Under Kansas law, price gouging is when the price charged grossly exceeds the prices charged for similar products available to similar consumers.

Price gouging would be clear

— Jeff Wagaman, deputy chief of staff for the Kansas Attorney General’s office if gas stations were charging $3.50 a gallon in one part of city, but $7 in other areas.

At lower amounts, say 20 cents, price gouging might be difficult to prove in a court of law, Wagaman said.

Price fixing is when there is an agreement between two or more people that affects the price paid by consumers. That also is hard to prove in court.

Wagaman named other reasons why gasoline prices could be higher in Lawrence.

For example, gas stations have to take into account labor costs, property values and taxes when setting prices.

Then there is the heavy demand on gasoline created by summer holiday and weekend traffic.

“Higher demand usually translates into higher gasoline prices,” Wagaman said.

Tom Palace, executive director for the Petroleum Marketers and Convenience Store Association of Kansas, said that gas station owners have every right to charge as little or as much as they want.

“We are the only industry to post our prices daily,” he said. “I’d like to know if (consumers) didn’t see the price sign up there, what would they think.”

So far no complaints about Lawrence’s high gasoline prices have found their way to the attorney general’s office.

But, Wagaman said, consumers are free to make them.

“Prices have risen dramatically, and we absolutely understand their frustrations,” he said. “If consumers feel like they are being gouged, file a complaint.”

Those complaints can be filed by calling (800) 432-2310 or by going online to the attorney general’s website at www.ksag.org.

Constance Wolfe, Lawrence Originals founder who helped organize the event, said this year’s third

edition was probably the biggest one so far. She said she expected about 5,000 to 10,000 people to attend.

Tiffany Taber and Blake Warford came to the park after working on their house for most of the day. They planned on staying for dinner and said they would probably go to the river to watch the fireworks. The Lawrence

couple, who are originally from Tulsa, Okla., said they enjoyed having an event that lasted all day.

“Even with all the fireworks in Tulsa, it started at 8 or 9, and ended at 10,” Taber said. “It’s like you waited all day long, and then you had two hours.”

Mars landing: Official describes how state pursued candy plant

T O P E K A (AP ) — Economic development is a little like courtship, says Steve Jenkins, senior vice president of Go Topeka Economic Partnership, but as he describes the city’s pursuit of a new Mars candy factory, tactics from the art of war also come into play.

Be aware of the enemy (the dozens of other communities also being considered). Be comfortable with secrets (code names for projects are useful). And choose weapons wisely (incentives tailored to the company being pursued).

State agencies and Go Topeka Economic Partnership apparently got the mix right. Last week, Mars Inc. announced it would build a 350,000-square-foot plant — its first candy factory in 35 years — in Topeka’s Kanza Fire Commerce Park, at an initial cost of $250 million.

Groundbreaking is scheduled for August, with the plant expected to start turning out Snickers and M&M’s in late 2013. Operated by Mars Chocolate North America, the plant is expected to have about 200 employees to start, with what the company said is the potential to eventually create 1,000 direct and indirect jobs.

Jenkins said that securing the largest single economic investment in the city’s history began with the courtshiplike side of economic development.

“It is based on relationships. Building relationships with companies is crucial,” he said. “They trusted us, and we trusted them.”

When competing with — Reporter Christine Metz can be reached other cities — in this case, 82 at 832-6352. potential sites in 13 states —

it is important the entities aren’t sitting across the table from each other. “We need to be sitting side by side with them,” Jenkins said.

Go Topeka learned last September from the Kansas Department of Commerce’s East Coast office about a company looking for a location.

The company — which was known only to Go Topeka as “Project Sweetness,” later to become “Project Pepper” and then “Project Buffalo” — had specific criteria, such as rail access and a large amount of land.

Go Topeka answered several questions and heard from the company within two weeks about a visit to the city.

Jenkins and several other people had to sign a nondisclosure agreement about the company, although Jenkins knew it was Mars.

The company sent a site selection committee to Topeka, where the visitors took photos of Kanza Fire Commerce Park and asked to see downtown.

“They want to be in a community that is on the move and vibrant,” Jenkins said.

“They are excited about the plans for downtown.”

The Mars officials also headed to metropolitan Kansas City to look at a potential site, but they contacted Go Topeka within two weeks.

“Then things kicked into high gear,” Jenkins said, with the company rapidly whittling down the possible sites to a handful.

More visits followed. Mars officials met with people from other major Topeka

employers, such as Goodyear and Frito Lay, and from school districts, cultural groups and Washburn University. The local groups weren’t told the company’s name.

Next came months of financial negotiations that Jenkins said could sometimes feel like a battle.

“This is a tough business,” Jenkins said. “It is intensively competitive. Those incentive packages become very important when you are down to the f inal two or three.

“There is a lot of strategy involved. You know your enemy is out there, but you don’t know what they are using for weapons. It’s intense. The larger the project, the more complex.”

What emerged was an incentive package totaling slightly more than $9 million, including the land, site and infrastructure improvements, permit fees, and an agreement with Washburn to help train employees.

On the day before the deal’s announcement in Topeka, Jenkins traveled to Mars Chocolate North America’s corporate headquarters in Hackettstown, N.J., for the internal announcement.

“That place just erupted in applause,” he said. “They are excited this company is growing.”

Chavez returns after cancer surgery Hugo Chavez’s surprise return from Cuba after cancer treatment was a classic maneuver for a president who excels at showmanship. It’s also likely to give him a political boost as supporters rally around their ailing leader.

The 56-year-old president projected a strong, vibrant image as he stepped off a plane early Monday. Smiling, he hugged his vice president, broke into song and later raised a fist in triumph.

Despite the confident image, doubts about his future re-emerged as he suggested later in the day that he still isn’t ready for a full comeback.

He told state television by telephone that he doesn’t expect to attend celebrations today marking the 200th anniversary of Venezuela’s independence from Spain. Normally, Chavez would be front and center at the patriotic event.

KU budget cuts felt across campus

By Andy Hyland ahyland@ljworld.com

As Kansas University continues to strain in the face of the realities of state budget cuts, indications of the effects are all over campus.

The school will absorb an additional 1.193 percent reduction in its state funding for the 2012 fiscal year that begins this month.

Sure, there are the big things.

Rodolfo Torres, a KU math professor who will serve as the faculty senate president this year, is quick to mention that faculty and staff have gone three years without salary increases.

“It’s really affecting the morale of the faculty,” he said, and he has heard of some who have left the university for higher-paying jobs.

KU recently approved limited raises as part of a tuition increase.

But KU is seeing all kinds of other signs of scrimping, saving and increased efficiencies all over campus. Here’s a quick look at just some: ● Mark Reiske, associate director of design and construction management, said that the university’s utility budget has been strained at times.

Petraeus: Focus of troops will shift The outgoing commander of U.S. and NATO forces in Afghanistan said Monday that the focus of the war will shift in coming months from Taliban strongholds in the south to the eastern border with Pakistan where insurgents closest to al-Qaida and other militants hold sway.

On his last Fourth of July in uniform before becoming the new CIA director, Gen. David Petraeus said that come fall, more special forces, intelligence, surveillance, air power will be concentrated in areas along Afghanistan’s rugged eastern border with Pakistan. There will be substantially more Afghan boots on the ground in the east and perhaps a small number of extra coalition forces too.

“There could be some small (coalition) forces that will move, but this is about shifting helicopters — lift and attack. It’s about shifting close-air support.

It’s about shifting, above all, intelligence, surveillance and recognizance assets,” he said in interviews with The Associated Press and three other news outlets.

Jurors weighing Anthony murder case Jurors began deliberating Monday in the Casey Anthony murder trial after hearing prosecutors argue the woman killed her 2-year-old daughter Caylee because the toddler interrupted her carefree partying and love life.

Prosecutors in their rebuttal closing argument earlier Monday said the defense’s assertion that Caylee’s death was an accident made no sense.

Anthony’s attorneys say the girl drowned in the family’s pool. They have said Anthony panicked and that her father, a former police officer, decided to make the death look like a homicide by placing duct tape over the child’s mouth and dumping the body in some nearby woods. George Anthony has denied that.

The university designates a set amount of money for utilities each year, he said. Thermostats in classrooms are controlled centrally.

“Those have crept up in cooling seasons and crept down in heating seasons,” he said.

Also, some classrooms that are inefficient to keep cool haven’t been used this summer, he said, including some rooms in the military science building and in Summerfield Hall. ● KU Libraries is one area where budgets have been held stable, said Lorraine Haricombe, the dean of libraries. But that doesn’t mean they haven’t had to make cutbacks. As journal subscription prices have continued to go up, the libraries consulted faculty members to see which journals — both print and electronic — are in the highest demand.

And the libraries just began offering donors an opportunity to sponsor a journal subscription.

“It’s a fairly new idea,” Haricombe said, adding that “a couple” of donors have signed up so far. It’s not a model the libraries can rely on into the future, she said, to ensure that the most relevant journals are produced. ● In KU’s College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, the overall number of faculty members has shrunk by 20 since the budget cuts began in 2009, said Danny Anderson, the college’s dean.

Some faculty have voluntarily taught overloads, but, in many cases, class sizes are growing, and courses are being offered less frequently. ● Matt Cook, an information specialist working in the biology department, said he didn’t know how cuts were affecting the IT department on a grand scale.

But he is seeing signs of decreased staffing levels in his area — the two-man team that works on IT issues for the biology department would soon be shrinking to one-and-a-half, he said, as his co-worker would be splitting time between biology and chemistry. ● In KU’s School of Pharmacy, the school is cutting its continuing education for licensed pharmacists as a cost-saving move, said Ken Audus, KU’s dean of pharmacy.

Many members of the industry offer the training for free, which is not something the school could do, Audus said.

Though he said he has heard complaints, he said the decision helped preserve other things the school was doing.

Rash of house fires reported over holiday TOPEKA — Spent fireworks are blamed for at least one of a rash of house fires around Kansas on the Fourth of July. There were no reports of injuries, but several families were left looking for places to stay.

In the Topeka area, a singlefamily home was destroyed early Monday in Soldier Township. Investigators were studying whether the blaze was sparked by fireworks.

want to put on the backs of students,” Audus said. ● Even in places at the university that aren’t seeing budget cuts, that doesn’t mean they’re not looking for ways to save.

At Watkins Community Health Center, student fees and fees for service pay the bills, and they’re holding relatively steady, said Joe Gillespie, Watkins associate director of student health services.

But they’re still moving away from most paper forms to cut back on costs. Student forms such as personal and family health histories must be filled out online now, he said, through the student’s personal online portal.

Appointments may also be made online, he said. ● In the office of research and graduate studies, some staff members have left for higher-paying jobs, said Kevin Boatright, communications director for the office.

Some of those have even taken other jobs at KU to obtain a salary raise, he said.

As the move to replace those staff members has been slower, more and more of the administrative work associated with research grants is being passed on to faculty members, he said.

The office is managing well overall, in spite of those challenges, he said.

more common in Lawrence than people think.

Canelos organizes a monthly clinic during which workers in the area stop in for help getting unpaid wages.

Canelos sees a variety of situations, but often it’s cases involving unpaid overtime or employees who aren’t paid minimum wage.

“Every little thing you can do,” said Canelos, explaining the many, sometimes creative, ways that employers skirt federal and state labor laws.

Exactly how often wage theft occurs in Lawrence isn’t known. The Journal-World filed an open records request with the U.S. Department of Labor for formal complaints made against Lawrence businesses.

But the department doesn’t sort complaints by city, and fulfilling the Journal-World’s request would have cost at least several thousand dollars, the labor department said.

In the year Canelos has been operating the clinic, she’s handled about 30 cases.

Often, an informal inquiry by Canelos is enough to get an employer to pay up. If not, Canelos has the option of helping file a formal complaint with the labor department.

Adam Huggins, an investi-

gator with the department’s Kansas City district office, said his office sees a wide variety of wage theft cases.

But education is the key, he said, to ensuring that workers are paid what they deserve.

For instance, undocumented workers are a population that’s especially vulnerable to wage theft, as they may not be familiar with laws or they fear being deported if they complain.

But Huggins said his department doesn’t check documentation status, and department workers’ only concern is getting employers to abide federal labor laws.

Huggins speaks across the region to employers and employees, trying to spread the word about the labor laws and encourage best practices.

Both Huggins and Canelos advise workers to keep as much documentation as possible, and especially recommend keeping a detailed log of work hours.

For Dalyrmple, who was helped by the Worker Justice Coalition, it was the threat of a labor department complaint that got his former boss earlier this year to pay the $1,300.

Once he started working with the coalition, it took several months for his ex-boss to comply. The money helped, but, more importantly, Dalyrmple said: “It’s the principle of it. You’re due that money.”

Schafer’s first tasks were to analyze the damage and clean the murals of varnish and nonoriginal paint applied during a touchup in 1996.

If you believe we have made such an error, call (785) 8327154, or e-mail news@ljworld.com.

Schafer cleaned each painting by dipping giant cotton swabs in solvents provided by the K-State chemistry department and rubbing the solution on a small area of each mural to reveal where paint had worn down or was completely gone.

Photos were taken of the murals after they were cleaned so the hues of the new paint could be matched to the original colors.

Schafer then used tiny brushes to dot paint on each mural to fill in the images or pull out the colors of the original oil paint.

The restoration project revealed some of Overmyer ’s painting techniques and uncovered some details few people notice when viewing the murals from the ground.

“The original paint has become more transparent over time, making some of the grid lines Overmyer used to create his painting more visible,” Schafer said. “They tell you a little bit about how he started painting the murals.

He used the grid to transfer a composition from a sketch to the wall. In this way he was able to go from something small to something much larger.”

Overmyer used black charcoal to draw the grid lines, as well as add detail on top of the paint. For example, in the mural titled “Home,” one can see the faint outlines of a book on a music stand and a diamondshaped window that were never painted in the final version.

Goetsch said the Friends of K-State Libraries paid the bulk of the $150,000 needed to restore the murals.

Dorothy program gains national attention for community work “

A DAMAGED IRVING ELEMENTARY SCHOOL and surrounding neighborhood is seen May 24 in Joplin, Mo. While large neighborhoods have been lost, an effort is under way to preserve the history of the tornado itself.

Effort to preserve history under way after tornado

By Wally Kennedy The Joplin Globe

JOPLIN, MO. — The May 22 tornado virtually erased two residential areas that were important in the early development of Joplin.

“Blendville and Schifferdecker’s First Addition were part of the early bedrock of Joplin,” said Leslie Simpson, an expert on Joplin’s architectural history. “When these neighborhoods are rebuilt, they will be so totally different. A person will have no concept that these important neighborhoods were ever there.”

In addition to the neighborhoods, some historic homes and buildings were lost, including the oldest remaining buildings of the Blendville Water Treatment Plant.

While large neighborhoods have been lost, an effort is under way to preserve the history of the tornado itself. Artifacts are being collected to reflect the power of the tornado.

Documenting the disaster Samuel Brister, of Seneca, was shopping with his family at the Walmart store at 15th Street and Range Line Road when the tornado hit. He and his family survived a direct hit in the store, but their 1992 GMC conversion van was not so lucky. It was found a few blocks away, wrapped around a tree.

“We had just bought it,” Brister said. “We hadn’t had a chance to get insurance on it.

I’m just glad nobody was in it.”

The van has been eyed by the city of Joplin as among those that might be preserved to show how badly the tornado mangled vehicles. An estimated 18,000 vehicles were lost in the storm.

Patrick Tuttle, director of the Joplin Convention and Visitors Bureau, said: “Since the beginning of this, we have been looking for ways to document what happened. Not knowing how to document it

for the future, we decided to acquire some unique pieces now that someday might be used in a monument.

“These examples represent the worst of what the tornado did, and that van is among the worst. You want them in case you need them.”

The city is not purchasing the vehicles and has not purchased the van. So far, two ruined vehicles have been donated. The van has a scrap metal value of $175.

Kelly Samuel, a friend of the Brister family, is storing the van on her property east of Carthage. She said: “If anyone has an old van they want to donate, this family sure could use it. If someone can help them, we would give this van to the city for its museum.”

‘A nice place to live’ Simpson said the memory of Blendville and Schifferdecker’s First Addition will now last only in photographs because so little survived the storm.

“Blendville was one of the original towns,” she said. “It was a separate town. It had its own school, churches and businesses. They had their own Main Street. At one time, Blendville had a couple of thousand people.”

Blendville was established in southwest Joplin as Cox Diggings in 1876. The prosperous community incorporated as Blendville, so named because of the huge amounts of zinc blend in the ground.

“There was mining all around Blendville,” Simpson said. “It was completely undermined over by St. John’s.”

Thomas Cunningham, who founded the Bank of Joplin in 1882, owned the original area that would become Blendville.

“Cunningham owned the residential area, which he divided into lots and sold at low rates so that miners could afford their own homes,” said Simpson. “The early stuff

would have been miners’ shacks. But it became a nice place to live.”

The city’s streetcar line was extended to Blendville.

In 1892, Joplin annexed the village. In July 1898, while he was serving as mayor, Cunningham donated Cunningham Grove as Joplin’s first city park. The tornado took out most of the original Blendville area, including Cunningham Park.

The tornado caused significant damage to a building that was constructed in 1887 as part of the Blendville Water Treatment Plant. A second building, constructed in 1901, was destroyed.

Don Jackson, lead operator of the plant for Missouri American Water Co., said the 1901 filtering building will be reconstructed to look like the original.

“The building built in 1887 had significant damage to its roof, but we think it can be rebuilt,” he said. “It had a steam-driven pump put in it in 1899. It supposedly is the only one like it left in the United States.”

Also destroyed by the tornado was the historic Carl Owen house, which was built in about 1911. The house overlooked Cunningham Park.

“We have so many tales about that house,” said Simpson. “People have said it once was a restaurant, a church and a mining office. Our earliest records give no proof it was anything but a house. It was very unique in its style.

There was none like it in Joplin.”

The other area of historic significance was Schifferdecker’s First Addition, a residential area developed in the south part of Joplin beginning in 1900. The Joplin Globe referred to the area lying south of 20th Street and fronting on Wall and Joplin avenues, and Main Street, as “a beautiful new addition affording the most desirable building property” to be found anywhere in the city.

Montana population to hit 1 million

By Nicholas Geranios Associated Press Writer

M I S S O U L A , M ONT . — Montanans like to call their state “Big Sky Country,” or “The last best place.” Nowhere in these descriptions are there hints of crowds.

Yet Montana is set to reach a major milestone later this year when the state tops 1 million residents for the first time, according to projections by the U.S. Census.

The slowest-growing state in one of the nation’s fastestgrowing regions, Montana will remain a vast and largely empty place. Don’t expect to wait in line at fly-fishing streams. And morning commutes will still average 17 minutes, enough to make big city dwellers cry.

Even so, some Montanans are treating the advancing milestone with dread.

“That’s the question I get most commonly: Are we at a million?” said Mary Craigle, Census director for the state.

When she says no, people are pleased. “They don’t want more neighbors.”

The 2010 Census counted 994,416 Montanans, and the millionth Montanan is projected to appear sometime in November or December, Craigle said. Population growth is estimated through births, deaths, and people moving in and out of the state, she said.

If the Census results are accurate, the millionth Montanan will likely show up in a community near Yellowstone or Glacier national parks, the

college towns of Missoula or Bozeman, or the city of Billings. That’s where growth is concentrated. Most of the other communities were either static or lost population in the decade.

Montanans know the marker is a psychological milestone, a sort of closing of the frontier.

“Once over a million, we get put into a different ballpark with other states,” said Bob Clark, with the Sierra Club environmental group in Missoula.

There are some positives to growth. Clark said a rising population may return to Montana its second seat in the U.S. House of Representatives. Montana is the largest state to have just one House member.

LIBERAL — Oz needed only one Dorothy to free the country from wicked witches; however, Liberal has 20 at its beck and call.

Nearly half of these Dorothys are new to the job.

All are excited at the prospect of the difference their roles will make in the community and in their lives.

The Dorothy program includes both junior high and high school girls.

It began in 1981 when a select number of young women were chosen from the community to do little things: ribbon cuttings, personal appearances and working at the gift shop at the Land of Oz Museum.

The program grew to include more structure and training.

Today, the Dorothy program has gained national and international attention for the community.

“One of our Dorothys received recognition from (U.S. President Barack Obama) for her community service this year,” said historical society and Land of Oz executive director JoAnne Mansell. “We really feel that the Dorothy program is one of the best in the country.”

Potential Dorothys, though, have to be determined to get to the Land of Oz. The process requires many of the same things any other job would ask: paperwork, references and an interview. It doesn’t require the Judy Garland-look, and Dorothy can be any color.

“We have girls from every walk of life there is in this town,” said Mansell, who loves the cultural diversity on the Dorothy roster.

“Being African-American and also a Dorothy will help me face racial adversity,” Kyana said, “and, hopefully, this experience will help me grow as a person.”

Kyana is not alone. Myrna

A Dorothy represents the Wizard of Oz and girls, every girl, who wants to go somewhere over the rainbow.”

— Shelby, a “Dorothy”

has found that her Hispanic background opens up a whole new aspect of her job.

“Sometimes ... I have to translate (my tour) to Spanish. But I like to do it because I want everyone on my tour to understand what I’m saying,” she said.

Becoming a Dorothy The Dorothys experience a two-week training period to learn their many responsibilities. They learn the history of Seward County, Liberal and the many ghost towns in the area in order to give tours through the Coronado Museum. This includes information about the Native American people who lived here before the pioneers and cattle ranchers arrived.

They memorize interesting facts about the movie “The Wizard of Oz.” The Dorothys need to know the Land of Oz well enough to talk as if they have been there, as if they are Dorothy Gale herself. They must be able to talk about Dorothy’s House as if it’s their own home.

Mansell has also incorporated training in comportment and etiquette into the Dorothy curriculum.

“Dorothys are expected to comport themselves in a ladylike manner at all times whether they are in uniform or not,” Mansell stated.

The training offers a wellrounded spectrum. One of the sessions includes a visit by a KBI officer, who covers safety issues for young women.

During the training, future Dorothys are called “ducklings.” The term was adopted

after Mansell looked out her window and saw a Dorothy leading a trail of trainees a l o n g t h e Ye l l ow B r i c k Road.

After the two weeks are up, the ducklings complete a 100question test over all the material they must know to be an authentic Dorothy Gale. The girls must score higher than 90 percent to begin Dorothy-hood.

“The test isn’t multiple choice, either,” Mansell said.

“They have to know the answers to become a Dorothy.”

Special ladies Once a duckling passes, her work has only begun.

Each girl must have her own community service project.

In years past, Dorothys have adopted senior citizens, gone caroling at nursing homes, worked with Big Brothers Big Sisters and given gifts to children in foster care.

“These young ladies are special,” Mansell said. “And this year’s Dorothys are just exceptional.”

The diversity of the Dorothys lends a freshness to the museum. Even though the facts are the same, each Dorothy’s tour is unique.

Each one adds a little of her own personality and perspective to her tour style and technique. No Dorothy wants her tour to be boring.

“I can’t wait to make my tours my own,” Josephine, a Dorothy in training, said.

The Dorothys form a tightknit community, marked by a “once a Dorothy, always a Dorothy” attitude.

“A Dorothy represents the Wizard of Oz and girls, every girl, who wants to go somewhere over the rainbow,” Shelby said.

Leaks CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

Welsh of Vermont, both Democrats — on Tuesday released a study by independent federal analysts who had identified problems with the regulation of underground piping.

The report by the U.S. Government Accountability Office noted that while the industry has a voluntary initiative to monitor leaks into underground water sources, the NRC hasn’t evaluated how promptly that system detects such leaks. “Absent such an assessment, we continue to believe that NRC has no assurance that the Groundwater Protection Initiative will lead to prompt detection of underground piping system leaks as nuclear power plants age,” the report’s authors concluded.

Any exposure to radioactivity, no matter how slight, boosts cancer risk, according to the National Academy of Sciences. Federal regulators set a limit for how much tritium is allowed in drinking water, where this contaminant poses its main health risk. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency says tritium should measure no more than 20,000 picocuries per liter in drinking water.

The agency estimates seven of 200,000 people who drink such water for decades would develop cancer.

The tritium leaks also have spurred doubts among independent engineers about the reliability of emergency safety systems at the 104 nuclear reactors situated on the 65 sites. That’s partly because some of the leaky underground pipes carry water meant to cool a reactor in an emergency shutdown and to prevent a meltdown. Fast moving, tritium can indicate the presence of more powerful radioactive isotopes, like cesium-137 and strontium-90.

So far, federal and industry officials say, the tritium leaks pose no health or safety threat. Tony Pietrangelo, chief nuclear officer of the industry’s Nuclear Energy Institute, said impacts are “next to zero.”

Leaks are prolific Like rust under a car, corrosion has propagated for decades along the hard-toreach, wet underbellies of the reactors — generally built in a burst of construction during the 1960s and 1970s.

There were 38 leaks from underground piping between 2000 and 2009, according to an industry document presented at a tritium conference. Nearly two-thirds of the leaks were reported over the latest five years.

For example, at the threeunit Browns Ferry complex in Alabama, a valve was mistakenly left open in a storage tank during modifications over the years. When the tank was filled in April 2010, about 1,000 gallons of tritium-laden water poured onto the ground at a concentration of 2 million picocuries per liter.

In drinking water, that would be 100 times higher than the EPA health standard.

And in 2008, 7.5 million picocuries per liter leaked from underground piping at Quad Cities in western Illinois — 375 times the EPA limit.

Subsurface water not only rusts underground pipes, it attacks other buried components, including electrical cables that carry signals to control operations.

piping when it must be dug up for some other reason.

Even when leaks are detected, repairs may be postponed for up to two years with the NRC’s blessing.

“You got pipes that have been buried underground for 30 or 40 years, and they’ve never been inspected, and the NRC is looking the other way,” said engineer Paul Blanch, who has worked for the industry and later became a whistleblower.

“They could have corrosion all over the place.”

RETIREE BOB SCAMEN STANDS near a discharge pipe for the Braidwood Nuclear Power Station about 300 feet from his property, Dec. 14, 2010, in Braidwood, Ill., 50 miles southwest of Chicago. In 1998 the pipe poured out 3 million gallons of water but, at first, Scamen did not realize it was radioactive.

Radioactive tritium has leaked from three-quarters of U.S. commercial nuclear power sites, often into groundwater from corroded, buried piping, an Associated Press investigation shows.

The number and severity of the leaks has been escalating, even as federal regulators extend the licenses of more and more reactors across the nation. reported industry data showing 83 failed cables between 21 and 30 years of service — but only 40 within their first 10 years of service. Underground cabling set in concrete can be extraordinarily difficult to replace.

Under NRC rules, tiny concentrations of tritium and other contaminants are routinely released in monitored increments from nuclear plants; leaks from corroded pipes are not permitted.

The leaks sometimes go undiscovered for years, the AP found. Many of the pipes or tanks have been patched, and contaminated soil and water have been removed in some places. But leaks are often discovered later from other nearby piping, tanks or vaults. Mistakes and defective material have contributed to some leaks. However, corrosion — from decades of use and deterioration — is the main cause.

And, safety engineers say, the rash of leaks suggest nuclear operators are hard put to

maintain the decades-old systems.

Over the history of the U.S. industry, more than 400 known radioactive leaks of all kinds of substances have occurred, the activist Union of Concerned Scientists reported in September.

Nuclear engineer Bill Corcoran, an industry consultant who has taught NRC personnel how to analyze the cause of accidents, said that since much of the piping is inaccessible and carries cooling water, the worry is if the pipes leak there could be a meltdown.

“Any leak is a problem because you have the leak itself — but it also says something about the piping,” said Mario V. Bonaca, a former member of the NRC’s Advisory Committee on Reactor Safeguards. “Evidently something has to be done.”

However, even with the best probes, it is hard to pinpoint partial cracks or damage in skinny pipes or bends.

The industry tends to inspect

East Coast issues One of the highest known tritium readings was discovered in 2002 at the Salem nuclear plant in Lower Alloways Creek Township, N.J. Tritium leaks from the spent fuel pool contaminated groundwater under the facility — located on an island in Delaware Bay — at a concentration of 15 million picocuries per liter. That’s 750 times the EPA drinking water limit. According to NRC records, the tritium readings last year still exceeded EPA drinking water standards.

And tritium found separately in an onsite storm drain system measured 1 million picocuries per liter in April 2010.

Also last year, the operator, PSEG Nuclear, discovered 680 feet of corroded, buried pipe that is supposed to carry cooling water to Salem Unit 1 in an accident, according to an NRC report. Some had worn down to a quarter of its minimum required thickness, though no leaks were found. The piping was dug up and replaced.

The operator had not visually inspected the piping — the surest way to find corrosion— since the reactor went on line in 1977, according to the NRC. PSEG Nuclear was found to be in violation of NRC rules because it hadn’t even tested the piping since 1988.

Last year, the Vermont Senate was so troubled by tritium leaks as high as 2.5 million picocuries per liter at the Vermont Yankee reactor in southern Vermont (125 times the EPA drinking-water standard) that it voted to block relicensing — a power that the Legislature holds in that state.

In March, the NRC granted the plant a 20-year license extension, despite the state opposition. Weeks ago, operator Entergy sued Vermont in federal court, challenging its authority to force the plant to close.

Global warming pause linked to China sulfur WASHINGTON (AP) — Scientists have come up with a possible explanation for why the rise in Earth’s temperature paused for a bit during the 2000s, one of the hottest decades on record.

The answer seems counterintuitive. It’s all that sulfur pollution in the air from China’s massive coal-burning, according to a new study.

Sulfur particles in the air deflect the sun’s rays and can temporarily cool things down a bit. That can happen even as coal-burn-

ing produces the carbon dioxide that contributes to global warming.

“People normally just focus on the warming effect of CO2 (carbon dioxide), but during the Chinese economic expansion there was a huge increase in sulfur emissions,” which have a cooling effect, explained Robert K. Kaufmann of Boston University.

He’s the lead author of the study published Monday in Proceedings of the National Academy of Science.

But sulfur’s cooling effect is only temporary, while the

carbon dioxide from coal burning stays in Earth’s atmosphere a long time.

Chinese coal consumption doubled between 2003 and 2007, and that caused a 26 percent increase in global coal consumption, Kaufmann said.

Now, Chinese leaders have recognized the effects of that pollution on their environment and their citizens’ health and are installing equipment to scrub out the sulfur particles, Kaufmann said.

Sulfur quickly drops out of the air if it is not replen-

ished, while carbon dioxide remains for a long time, so its warming effects are beginning to be visible again, he noted. The plateau in temperature growth disappeared in 2009 and 2010, when temperatures lurched upward.

Indeed, NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, have listed 2010 as tied for the warmest year on record, while the Hadley Center of the British Meteorological Office lists it as second warmest, after 1998.

operating reactor, the latest tritium troubles started in April 2009, a week after it was relicensed for 20 more years.

That’s when plant workers discovered tritium by chance in about 3,000 gallons of water that had leaked into a concrete vault housing electrical lines.

Since then, workers have found leaking tritium three more times at concentrations up to 10.8 million picocuries per liter — 540 times the EPA’s drinking water limit — according to the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection. None has been directly measured in drinking water, but it has been found in an aquifer and in a canal discharging into nearby Barnegat Bay, a popular spot for swimming, boating and fishing.

Exelon’s piping problems To Oyster Creek owner Exelon — the country’s biggest nuclear operator, with 17 units — piping problems are just a fact of life. At a meeting with regulators in 2009, representatives of Exelon acknowledged that “100 percent verification of piping integrity is not practical,” according to a copy of its presentation.

Of course, the company could dig up the pipes and check them out. But that would be costly.

“Excavations have significant impact on plant operations,” the company said.

Exelon has had some major leaks. At the company’s tworeactor Dresden site west of Chicago, tritium has leaked into the ground at up to 9 million picocuries per liter — 450 times the federal limit for drinking water. Leaks from Dresden also have contaminated offsite drinking water wells, but below the EPA drinking water limit.

There’s also been contamination of offsite drinking water wells near the two-unit Prairie Island plant southeast of Minneapolis, then operated by Nuclear Management Co. and now by Xcel Energy, and at Exelon’s two-unit Braidwood nuclear facility, 10 miles from Dresden. The offsite tritium concentrations from both facilities also were below the EPA level.

The Prairie Island leak was found in the well of a nearby home in 1989. It was traced to a canal where radioactive waste was discharged.

Braidwood has leaked more than six million gallons of tritium-laden water in repeated leaks dating back to the 1990s — but not publicly reported until 2005. The leaks were traced to pipes that carried limited, monitored discharges of tritium into the river.

“They weren’t properly maintained, and some of them had corrosion,” said Exelon spokeswoman Krista Lopykinski.

Last year, Exelon, which has acknowledged violating Illinois state groundwater standards, agreed to pay $1.2 million to settle state and county complaints over the tritium leaks at Braidwood and nearby Dresden and Byron sites. The NRC also sanctioned Exelon.

A DECOY SITS on Bob Scamen’s pond in Braidwood, Ill., within view of the Braidwood Nuclear Power Station in Braceville, Ill., about 50 miles southwest of Chicago on Dec. 14, 2010. Braidwood has leaked more than 6 million gallons of tritium-laden water in repeated leaks dating back to the 1990s — but not publicly reported until 2005.

Tritium measuring 1,500 picocuries per liter turned up in an offsite drinking well at a home near Braidwood.

Though company and industry officials did not view any of the Braidwood concentrations as dangerous, unnerved residents took to bottled water and sued over feared loss of property value. A consolidated lawsuit was dismissed, but Exelon ultimately bought some homes so residents could leave.

Public relations effort An NRC task force on tritium leaks last year dismissed the danger to public health. Instead, its report called the leaks “a challenging issue from the perspective of communications around environmental protection.” The task force noted ruefully that the rampant leaking had “impacted public confidence.”

For sure, the industry also is trying to stop the leaks. For several years now, plant owners around the country have been drilling more monitoring wells and taking a more aggressive approach in replacing old piping when leaks are suspected or discovered.

But such measures have yet to stop widespread leaking.

Meantime, the reactors keep getting older — 66 have been approved for 20-year extensions to their original 40-year licenses, with 16 more extensions pending.

And, as the AP has been reporting in its ongoing series, Aging Nukes, regulators and industry have worked in concert to loosen safety standards to keep the plants operating.

In an initiative started last year, NRC Chairman Gregory Jaczko asked his staff to examine regulations on buried piping to evaluate if stricter standards or more inspections were needed.

The staff report, issued in June, openly acknowledged that the NRC “has not placed an emphasis on preventing” the leaks.

And they predicted even more.

Exxon: Yellowstone leak worse than thought The scope of Exxon Mobil Corp.’s oil leak into the Yellowstone River could extend far beyond a 10-mile stretch of the famed waterway, the company acknowledged under political pressure Monday.

As the company intensified its cleanup of tens of thousands of gallons of spilled crude, Exxon Mobil Pipeline Co. President Gary Pruessing pledged to do “whatever is necessary” to find and mop up oil from the 12-inch pipeline that broke at the bottom of the river over the weekend.

The company earlier downplayed assertions from state and federal officials that damage from the spill was spread over dozens of miles. That drew sharp criticism from Montana Gov. Brian Schweitzer, who planned to tour the damaged areas today.

Company officials said their statements were misconstrued, and Pruessing pledged that crews would begin walking the Yellowstone shoreline as soon as the flooding river recedes to look for pooled oil along the banks.

Tourists still missing after boat capsizes American tourists on an annual July 4 fishing trip were plunged into the Gulf of California in the middle of the night after a flash storm upended their boat, killing at least one U.S. man and leaving seven others missing.

Mexican officials on Monday were considering calling off the search for survivors and turning their efforts to recovering bodies after rescuing 19 tourists and all 16 crew members.

Navy, army and state officials reviewed their strategy as divers prepared to search the wreckage for bodies, said State Civil Protection Director Alfredo Escobedo Ortiz.

The 115-foot vessel, the Erik, sank about 60 miles south of the port of San Felipe early Sunday. Most the 27 were from Northern California.

U.S. celebrates Fourth with fireworks, food

By Karen Zraick Associated Press Writer

N E W Y O R K — The U.S. marked the 235th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence with parades, fireworks, barbecues — plus presidential campaigning, a White House birthday and competitive eating.

Thousands were showing up near the Washington Monument to eagerly await the annual fireworks show on the National Mall, while others were throwing on Hawaiian shirts and shorts to ski the still-snowy slopes at resorts from California to Colorado.

In Boston, the annual Boston Pops concert was a must. In Akron, Ohio, the Rib, White & Blue Food Festival was enticing. And then, there were Nevada’s casinos, which promised a pyrotechnics extravaganza that could be a gambler’s best bet.

On New York’s Coney Island, the annual Nathan’s Famous July Fourth hot dogeating contest brought out the biggest names in competitive eating for a clash that was short in timespan but high in calories.

Some of the twins were identical and some were non-identical, or fraternal, twins.

The researchers used DNA testing to determine which twins were identical and which were fraternal. That was important because identical twins come from one fertilized egg and have identical genetic makeups. Fraternal twins, from two fertilized eggs, share no more genetic material than any other siblings.

The new study found, as expected, high rates of shared autism disorders for identical twins: 77 percent of male twin pairs and 50 percent for female pairs had autism in both twins.

Surprisingly, it also found fairly high rates of fraternal twins both having autism spectrum disorders: 31 percent rate for male fraternal twins and 36 percent for female fraternal twins.

Other studies have found 10 to 20 percent of younger siblings of children with autism are likely to be diagnosed themselves with the disorder.

Fraternal twins share the same womb, even though they don’t share identical genes. That could be important, said Dr. John Constantino of Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, who wasn’t involved in the new research.

“Finding so many fraternal twin pairs in whom both twins have autism spectrum disorders is a key finding that puts a spotlight on pregnancy as a time when environmental factors might exert their effects,” Constantino said.

Those factors could include stress, diet, infections, a mother’s age and medications, experts said.

The new study didn’t try to determine what factors increase risk.

The study was funded by grants from the National Institute of Mental Health and Autism Speaks, an advocacy group.

Associated Press Writer

P A R I S — Dominique Strauss-Kahn faced a potential new sexual assault investigation Monday after a young French writer said she would formally accuse him of trying to rape her during a 2002 book interview — a dizzying turn of events just as the former IMF chief ’s fortunes seemed to be growing brighter.

With France debating his possible return to presidential politics, Strauss-Kahn swiftly hit back at author Tristane Banon’s plans to take him to court over the attempted rape accusations, labeling her account “imaginary” and countering with his own plans to file a criminal complaint of slander.

The sordid exchange may have deep ramifications for the 2012 presidential race in France, where the surprise weakening of the sexual assault case against StraussKahn in New York last week sparked a fierce debate about whether he should return to politics if the American case against him collapses completely.

Before Banon’s announcement, polls showed voters were evenly split about whether Strauss-Kahn, 62, should try to revive a career that until recently had him on track to take on conservative President Nicolas Sarkozy in the race to be France’s next leader.

“DSK Back?” the left-leaning daily Liberation asked on its front page Monday.

Some politicians and pundits see Strauss-Kahn, who won plaudits for his stewardship of the International Monetary Fund, as a victim of overzealous American prosecutors and journalists who denied him the presumption of innocence when a maid accused him of forcing her to perform oral sex in his Manhattan hotel room.

“He was crushed, then, by that fraction of the American judicial apparatus that, by putting Dominique StraussKahn in stocks, by humiliat-

Libya reports progress in talks with rebels resigns and orders a ceasefire.

“The Libyans do not want Gadhafi to stay even if he’s dead ... after what he’s done while in power and during the revolt against him,” Abdul-Jalil said Monday.

In the Gadhafi-controlled capital of Tripoli, Deputy Foreign Minister Khaled Kaim told reporters that talks with various rebel officials have been going on for two months.

He said the negotiations have included some mem-

bers of a transitional council based in the eastern rebel stronghold of B enghazi, though he acknowledged that “of course there are elements within the rebellion who are not in favor in talks.”

The aim of the discussions, taking place outside Libya and over the phone, is to halt hostilities and set a framework for further dialogue, he said.

Asked if progress has been made, he said: “In some areas, yes, of course.”

ing him before the entire world, by ruthlessly pursuing him, has probably ruined his life,” celebrity philosopher Bernard-Henri Levy wrote on The Daily Beast website.

Others have expressed disgust with allegations that the Socialist politician routinely subjected women to crude sexual advances, and lived a luxurious lifestyle out of touch with ordinary French people, even in the glare of press attention in New York.

“Between his luxury tastes and other subjects, Dominique Strauss-Kahn has not offered a very positive image recently,” Sports Minister Chantal Jouanno, a Sarkozy ally, said on Europe1 radio.

Strauss-Kahn has been living under house arrest in a $50,000-a-month town house in the trendy TriBeCa neighborhood.

Once released, Strauss-Kahn had dinner at a pricey Manhattan restaurant.

“To see Strauss-Kahn freed then straight away eat in a luxury restaurant with friends, that makes me sick,” Banon told the magazine L’Express in an account published Monday. “I only want one thing, that he comes back

to France, with his presumption of innocence, so that we can go before a court.”

Banon, 31, said on a 2007 television show that she had been attacked five years earlier by a politician she had interviewed for a book in his apartment. She later identified the man as Strauss-Kahn.

“It finished very violently,” she said on the television show. “I kicked him. He opened my bra. He tried to undo my jeans. It finished very badly.”

L aw ye r D av i d Ko u b b i said Banon had been dissuaded from filing charges by her mother, a regional councilor in Strauss-Kahn’s Socialist party. Her mother, Anne Mansouret, admitted in a French television interview in May that she had urged her daughter not to file a complaint after the incident.

Banon came forward again after Strauss-Kahn’s May 14 arrest in New York, but Koubbi said his client had no intention of pressing charges while the American prosecution was going on because the two cases should be kept separate.

Banon is now moving forward, Koubbi told The Associated Press.

Useful exchange University communities may still have a lot to learn from one another.

T

he more things change, the more they stay the same.

A recent Journal-World story told of a conference in Boulder, Colo., attended by City Manager David Corliss and Commissioner Hugh Carter. The meeting focused on “towngown” relations and — surprise! — revealed that other university communities share issues like those that concern Lawrence.

Corliss noted that Lawrence wants to examine what other communities have done on situations related to neighborhoods with high student rental populations.

Decades ago, officials from cities in the old Big Eight Conference scheduled annual meetings to exchange information about common problems and concerns. Interestingly, old newspaper clippings refer to Carter’s father, former Mayor Ed, taking part, along with current Commissioner Bob Schumm during his first stint on the commission. Conference participants routinely included representatives from the universities, the cities’ news media, city officials, Chamber of Commerce leaders and others. Topics ranged widely, depending upon the issues of the day, from housing to utilities, recycling, transportation and even policies about dogs.

Ecology, local schools, municipal growth, jobs, crime and other matters deemed timely were the subject of featured speakers and panel presentations.

Attendees frequently included representatives from university communities outside the region, interested in seeing how the cities in the Big Eight were handling matters, and in how the annual Big Eight Cities Conference operated. It also was not uncommon for legislators, governors, and others to be part of the annual gatherings, which rotated among cities in the conference. (Toward the end of its successful run, the complaint from participants was that top university administrators had stopped taking part.)

Perhaps Lawrence officials should attempt to revive the conference and make sure that university leaders agree to be actively engaged in the discussions. The recent experience of Corliss and Carter would seem to underscore the value of sharing and exchanging information.

Republican divisions are nothing new L EBANON , N.H. — Up here in tranquil New Hampshire, where the hills glow peacefully in the summer sunshine, everyone’s talking about the war for the soul of the Republican Party.

Hold it, I am thinking. Haven’t I witnessed several wars for the soul of the Republican Party?

Six in my lifetime alone, now that I’m counting.

There’s no denying that there’s a struggle within the Republican Party as it moves toward the first presidential primary here, tentatively (and, given the nature of this campaign, perhaps mischievously) scheduled for next Feb. 14. But the Republicans are holding no lovefest in New Hampshire. Already the party is divided every which way — between regulars and irregulars, economic conservatives and social conservatives, established politicians and newcomers, Westerners and Easterners, males and females.

The Republicans haven’t been at each other’s throats this much since ... the last election.

In our historical imagination, the Republicans are the sober, organized, unflappable ones — the quiet members of Rotary and Kiwanis who do their duty, tend to commerce, stiffen their upper lips at adversity, take everything in stride. They don’t raise their voices or raise hackles. They’re the party of social order and stability. That’s the image. The reality is quite different.

A measure of the chasm between them: Can you imagine Romney putting Bachmann on his ticket or the other way around?

But the Republicans had a similar struggle in 2008, when Sen. John McCain of Arizona, only four years after being considered a vice presidential possibility on the Democratic ticket, had almost nothing in common with his Republican rivals, primarily Romney and former Gov. Mike Huckabee of Arkansas.

Four elections earlier, commentator Patrick J. Buchanan took on President George H.W. Bush here in New Hampshire, painting Bush as effete and feckless and indicting him for being an apostate from the true Reagan faith. At the 1992 Republican National Convention, Buchanan spoke openly of a “culture war.”

History shows other rivalries Look back at the last century — go all the way back to the critical election of 1912, when giants strode the Earth and four of them, William Howard Taft, Woodrow Wilson, Theodore Roosevelt and Eugene V. Debs, ran for president — and you can count nine distinct battles for the soul of the Republican Party. The Democrats, the ones ridiculed as being the disorganized and emotional pugilists in American politics, have had only four such battles, fewer than half their rivals’.

This time, the battle for the More GOP struggles It turns out that Ronald Reagan soul of the Republican Party pits three former governors, Mitt and Bush played central roles in Romney of Massachusetts, Tim two other GOP struggles, the one

that spanned the 1976 and 1980 elections (main themes: the aggressiveness of modern conservatism and the validity of supplyside economics), and the one in 1988 (main themes: whether and how the Reagan revolution would be extended, and whether and how the demands of religious conservatives should be accommodated).

Major struggles over the nature of conservatism also occurred in 1940 (over Wendell Willkie’s views on internationalism) and in 1952 (when the Taft and Eisenhower wings clashed).

Perhaps the most significant GOP struggle occurred in 1964, when the Eastern Republican establishment personified by Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller of New York was challenged, and defeated, by the new Western conservatism represented by Sen. Barry Goldwater of Arizona. Goldwater’s landslide defeat at the hands of President Lyndon B. Johnson left the Republican Party in tatters — only to be revived four years later when former Vice President Richard M. Nixon beat Vice President Hubert H. Humphrey as the Democrats were undergoing one of their own internal struggles.

differences between the Democrats of the North and the Democrats of the South.

The party also split in 1928 over legalized drink and the degree to which the Democrats, who nominated Gov. Al Smith of New York for president that year, should identify themselves with Catholics and the immigrant families from Ireland and Eastern Europe that increasingly were becoming part of the political mainstream.

There’s no obvious reason why the party of stability, as Republicans sometimes regard themselves, has had more upheaval than the party of change, which is how Democrats sometimes think of themselves. Perhaps it is because these internal struggles often precede and follow the appearance of political titans, and the Republicans have had two in modern times (Dwight Eisenhower and Reagan) while the Democratic century was dominated by one (Franklin Roosevelt).

Eisenhower and Reagan were skillful above all in their ability to mask the differences in their party.

U.S. must fill Afghan gaps KHOST, AFGHANISTAN — A Taliban prisoner named Mohammed Nazir is brought into the warden’s office here in ankle cuffs and seated on the couch next to me. He is wary but articulate about what ails his country. “The major problem is our justice system. It is corrupt,” he says.

And he’s right.

The Taliban’s greatest asset has been its ability to provide quick justice in a country shattered by war and corruption. It was the recruiting card for Afghans such as Nazir, a 31-year-old mullah with a long black beard and incongruously sparkling white teeth, who was convicted of helping plant roadside bombs.

Here lies the biggest challenge for America as it begins to reduce forces in Afghanistan. The U.S. must help the Afghan government provide justice and other basics of governance in the Pashtun areas where the Taliban took root. An old Pashtun proverb says that “a country without law is a jungle,” and if the jungle remains, the Taliban wins.

I had a glimpse last week of some new U.S. efforts to fill the vacuum, in visits to Khost near the eastern border and Baghlan province in the far north. I came away impressed by these projects, but wishing they had begun years ago, at the beginning of the 10-year war in Afghanistan. Now, with American patience exhausted and U.S. combat power on the decline starting this month, there may not be enough time.

The trip to Khost was arranged by Brig. Gen. Mark Martins, who heads a new Rule of Law Field Force. He’s one of the Army’s stars — West Point, Rhodes Scholar, Harvard Law and part of Gen. David Petraeus’ inner circle in Iraq and Afghanistan. To visualize the justice problem, Martins displayed the 88 Afghan districts without government prosecutors and the

ment provide justice and other basics of governance in the Pashtun areas where the Taliban took root.”

117 without judges. The map is very similar to that of the Taliban’s strongholds.

It’s clear in Khost that the U.S. has some worthy Afghan allies, as well as antagonists such as Nazir. The most impressive colleague was Lt. Mohammed Zareem, a local police commander who was the hero of a May 22 assault.

Four Taliban wearing suicide vests had seized a police building and captured four cops.

Zareem and a five-man Afghan police team, partnered with three U.S. soldiers, rescued the hostages, killed the suicide bombers and defused a car bomb outside. Zareem carried a wounded American sergeant away from the building under fire and was shot twice. “That was my job,” he says.

You often hear stories about poor performance by Afghan soldiers and police, but Zareem’s tale made me think again. Working closely with U.S. mentors, such as Col. Chris Toner, the commander of U.S. forces in Khost, the Afghans are performing better.

In Baghlan, I saw another attempt to fill the local governance gap. Lt. Gen David Rodriguez, the deputy to Petraeus, was making a

farewell tour to the north. In the village of Gaji, he met a former Taliban fighter named Noor ul-Hak, who joined the “reintegration” program and now heads a nearly 300-man unit of a new program called the Afghan Local Police.

The scene was something out of a counterinsurgency manual.

The 6-foot-5 Rodriguez sat on the floor next to the spindly former insurgent, flanked by U.S. Special Forces soldiers who have been living rough in this valley, mentoring Hak and the other ALP recruits nominated by local tribal leaders. With their bushy beards and faces weathered by the sun, the Special Forces operatives might be mistaken for tribesmen themselves.

The enemy out here is the corrupt and incompetent Afghan government, as much as the Taliban. “The government is supposed to solve problems, but it’s the opposite, they create problems.”

Hak said, with Rodriquez nodding assent. Indeed, that very week, he had pushed the Afghan interior minister to fire the Baghlan provincial chief of police. The hope is that the ALP, which will eventually have 100 branches, can work through tribal elders to build local security where the government can’t, or won’t.

But it’s a tricky business.

Hak’s tribe may be pleased to see him wielding power with American support, but other local tribes are not.

Rodriguez, who’s finishing his second tour here and, like Petraeus, will be leaving Afghanistan this month, says his main regret is that the U.S. didn’t implement its current strategy faster. “When I first got here, I didn’t know 10 percent of what I needed,” he explains.

“We poured money in here without the proper governance systems.” The U.S. has learned lessons, but late in the game.

A record crowd of about 16,000 persons had gathered on the previous night in Kansas University Memorial Stadium for a fireworks YEARS display. The 18th annual show, AGO sponsored by the Lawrence IN 1971 Jaycees, was also witnessed by hundreds more people seated on the grassy slopes between the stadium and the KU Campanile.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for July 5, 1911: “‘It was the quietest Fourth I have ever known in Lawrence.’ That YEARS is the way a local police officer AGO expressed it this morning. There IN 1911 was not a single arrest made all day.

While ‘Young America’ was out in full force with his pockets full of firecrackers and dynamite caps, there was a very noticeable tendency to be careful and avoid the accidents that have characterized the day in previous years.”

“For some reason the people of Lawrence are not patronizing the park. The crowd was large yesterday, but fewer people rode to the park than rode the year before. The street car company has gone to great expense to make the park attractive.... Why do people not go to Woodland park?”

Congested Mo. River threatens tributaries

By Grant Schulte Associated Press Writer

LINCOLN, NEB. — In a season of flooding by some of the nation’s biggest rivers, it’s streams most Americans have never heard of that could cause some of the worst problems in the Midwest.

Hundreds of tributaries that feed the congested Missouri River face a greater-than-normal flood risk this summer because of water levels that have kept them from draining.

The Missouri is expected to remain near historic highs for months, which means the threat will remain through summer — a season when the Midwest often is beset with thunderstorms that can quickly dump heavy rain.

University of Iowa engineering professor Witold Krajewski, director of the Iowa Flood Center, compared the situation to a “traffic jam” of water. It started with the sustained release of massive amounts of water from dams on the upper Missouri, caused by spring rain and a heavy Rocky Mountain snow-

pack that filled reservoirs.

“It’s like a football game and baseball game getting out at the same time,” Krajewski said. “There are all these cars trying to move. It doesn’t take long before drivers can’t get out of the side streets.”

Backed-up tributaries in South Dakota and Missouri have already submerged streets and threatened homes near the point where they reach the surging river. In Hamburg, Iowa, work crews are keeping close watch on changing levels of the Nishnabotna River to their east, as they try to hold off the Missouri River from the west.

Some tributaries, such as the Nodaway and Big Sioux, are so backed up with high water in the larger river that local officials worry that a well-placed downpour could suddenly pose a new flooding threat.

Nebraska State Climatologist Al Dutcher said the problem won’t end soon.

“We’re probably going to see the tributaries be problematic all year,” Dutcher said.

KANSAS FOOTBALL

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Bring back Norm As labor disputes threaten to wipe out the next professional football and basketball seasons, it’s time to consider other viewing options.

With any luck, one of the billion cable channels will decide to bring back The Sports Show with Norm Macdonald, canceled in June by Comedy Central.

Macdonald, the former Saturday Night Live Weekend Update anchor, sat at a desk and did a 23-minute sportscast that mocked all that needed to be mocked.

His brand of humor isn’t for everybody. For example, the humorless won’t find him funny because they aren’t happy unless they’re angry.

Macdonald packs a politically incorrect punch and because of that does far more to expose and ridicule the ridiculous stereotypes that created political correctness in the first place.

A sampling from one May episode of The Sports Show with Norm Macdonald: “After public accusation, Laker guard Shannon Brown tweeted this weekend that he did not sleep with teammate Pau Gasol’s girlfriend. You know, how come if a guy goes on Twitter to say that he didn’t sleep with another guy’s girlfriend, it makes you think, ‘Hey, I bet that guy slept with that other guy’s girlfriend?’ ” Macdonald stayed with the Lakers, who didn’t have the decency to put personal feuds aside and send Phil Jackson out a winner: “With the Lakers out of the playoffs, Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom will be spending a lot more time together, which has inspired Lamar’s new fragrance, ‘Kill Me Now.’ ” As a video of a famous skateboarder zipping down a thin railing played, Macdonald commented, “Seattle, Washington, Nyja Houston, so difficult and so very, very uninteresting.”

Naturally, Macdonald weighed in on Michael Jordan’s bizarre facial-hair choice for his Hanes Underwear commercial.

“I am certainly not the first one to point this out,” Macdonald said. “As a matter of fact, if you google ‘Hitler mustache,’ Michael Jordan appears on the first page. Let’s get to the bottom of this. The question is, ‘What did Hanes know about Jordan’s Hitler mustache and when did they know it?’ ” Macdonald put forth the possibility Hanes didn’t know about it until Jordan showed up for the shoot.

“The director sees Michael for the first time and he says to himself, ‘Good Lord, his upper lip is sporting the most universally recognized symbol of evil ever known to man. Oh well, we’ll work around it.’ ” Elsewhere, Charles Barkley, who called Jordan’s mustache, “one of the stupidest things I’ve seen in a long time,” pointed out that it proves how much bigger a star Jordan is because nobody hesitates to critique Barkley’s appearance when he shows up for a commercial.

If the NBA shuts down into the season, Macdonald might want to team with Barkley on a show that could make everyone forget about the lockout.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY’S QUARTERBACKS, IN CLOCKWISE ORDER STARTING AT TOP LEFT, are Brock Berglund (16), Michael Cummings (4), Quinn Mecham (8), and Jordan Webb. Berglund, who did not participate in spring drills and returned home to Colorado for personal reasons, could join the Jayhawks for practices in August. KU assistant coaches say they will continue to place a heavy emphasis on recruiting quarterbacks in the immediate future.

KU assistant coaches place premium on recruiting QBs

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

While the coaching staff waits to see if either Brock Berglund or Michael Cummings turns out to be Kansas University’s quarterback of the future, the position remains a priority on the recruiting trail.

“You’re probably always gonna take a quarterback,” KU assistant coach Reggie Mitchell said, when asked what position, if any, the Jayhawks would recruit every year in

a recent interview with the Journal-World. “That’s just the nature of that position.”

Sometimes quarterbacks pan out. Other times they flop. And still other times they change positions.

KU’s current two-deep depth chart features three such examples, as wide receivers Kale Pick and Christian Matthews, and tight end AJ Steward all arrived on campus as QBs. Then there’s the case of Todd Reesing and Kerry Meier.

Meier made his way to KU in the Class of 2005 and came with 4.6second 40-yard dash speed and a 6foot-3, 203-pound frame. Clearly, Meier was the kind of QB the Jayhawks envisioned shaping their future around. But one year later, former KU coach Mark Mangino had a hunch about a 5-10, 180pound waterbug out of Texas and offered him a scholarship. It turned out to be the best move Mangino ever made. Reesing beat out Meier for the starting QB job in 2007 and

led the Jayhawks to a 12-1 season and an Orange Bowl victory while becoming one of the greatest players in Kansas football history. At the same time, Meier took his size and skill and became an NFL-caliber wide receiver, one of the best to ever play the position at KU. Imagine if Mangino had sat on Meier as his quarterback and simply stopped recruiting the position.

Kaun relishes time in Russia

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

FORMER KANSAS UNIVERSITY CENTER SASHA KAUN WALKS in front of the KU basketball mural on Thursday outside the Northwest tunnel of Allen Fieldhouse. Kaun has been in town visiting for about a week.

Former Kansas University basketball center Sasha Kaun — who has made over $1 million a season playing for Russian Superleague Club CSKA Moscow the past three years — is in no hurry to switch to the NBA. “I think every player that plays the game wants to be in the NBA and over here,” the 6-foot-11, 250pound Kaun said Thursday in an interview in Allen Fieldhouse.

“But the biggest thing and the most scary part is if you don’t play.

There you know you are one of the better players and always play.

“As long as I’m having fun and getting good pay out of it ... European basketball is growing a lot.

A lot of good players come there and play. Whatever I’ve done so far ... I’ve been pretty blessed.

Continuing on would be fine for me.”

Kaun — he has one year left on his deal in his homeland of Russia — remains the property of the NBA’s Cleveland Cavaliers, who acquired his draft rights from Seattle in the 2008 NBA Draft.

There’s a buyout in Kaun’s contract that would enable Cleveland to sign him when the current lockout is lifted and a new collective bargaining agreement is reached.

“There are a lot of different factors. It’s all great as long as you can make money and support your family,” Kaun said.

He’s married to former KU soccer player Taylor Blue of Olathe.

“I think she is adjusting to it,” Tomsk native Kaun said of residing in Russia. “She misses a lot of American-style living. It’s tough at times. I think she likes our schedule better than she would in the NBA. I’m not traveling as much as those guys do. Our road trips are like college — leave the night before and come back after the game. It’s easier on her. She Please see KAUN, page 3B

COMING WEDNESDAY • Recap of the Royals second game in Chicago against the White Sox

U.S. still looking to beat Sweden WOLFSBURG, GERMANY (AP) — Rest is nice, winning is better.

The United States plays Sweden in the group stage finale at the Women’s World Cup on Wednesday, a game that would seem to have little importance with both teams already through to the quarterfinals. But there is plenty still at stake for the Americans, starting with the bragging rights — and

everything that comes with them — for winning the group.

“We go for a win,” U.S. coach Pia Sundhage said Monday. “Absolutely.”

The two-time World Cup champions need only a tie against Sweden to win Group C and likely avoid a quarterfinal matchup with Brazil. The Group C winner plays the second-place team in Group D,

likely Australia or Norway, while the Group C runner-up gets the Group D winner.

Brazil, runner-up in 2007 and at the last two Olympics, needs only a draw against World Cup newcomer Equatorial Guinea to win Group D. “I can safely say that there’s not going to be one player or person or staff member from the United

States that’s going to say, ’We want a tie,”’ Abby Wambach said. “We want to win this game because we want to keep the momentum going forward. Obviously, you have to be smart. We want to get some of those 90-minute players some rest if we can do that. But first and foremost, we want to make sure and secure the first place out of this group.”

By Tim Cowlishaw The Dallas Morning News

DALLAS — It came to me several times over the winter, this feeling that the Rangers-Giants World Series had never happened. After sitting in the stands for that first Rangers game in 1972 and wondering for 38 years what an Arlington World Series would look and feel like, it was easy to think the whole thing had been a dream.

I didn’t expect similar feelings following the Mavericks’ marvelous championship run. So many years in the making, the championship celebration in Miami and the parade through downtown Dallas streets felt like a well-deserved reward for a franchise’s often frustrating but decadelong quest for achievement.

And then I took two weeks’ vacation and returned only to find that the Mavericks — at least those players that produced this city a championship — no longer exist.

At least that’s the case on the team’s website where, yes, it tells you right away that the Mavericks are champions. But if you didn’t know any better, you would think the Mavericks dancers had just taken the rest of the league by storm, not Dirk Nowitzki, whose picture has been replaced by what I have always felt is the team’s very confusing logo (what’s with the horse?).

Of course, this is nothing but the work of commissioner David Stern, and Mavericks owner Mark Cuban has no choice but to go along.

The NBA has joined the NFL on sport’s sideline, and I can’t help but wonder what the extremely casual sports fan makes of all these leagues shutting down the workplace at a time when most of us are part of a “sluggish” economy at best.

I’d like to sit here and say, “Well, you just don’t understand the situation here,” but really I don’t think that’s the point at all. I often wonder if the legal experts on both sides and the owners and the players themselves have a truly firm grip on what it is they’ve set out to accomplish.

The best I can say about the NBA’s decision to close its doors and “unfriend” its players (removing their photos from websites, how clever) is that it’s not as outrageous as the NFL’s suggestion that its model, too, is broken.

Listen, the one thing we know about any group of sports owners is that you can lock them all in a windowless room with a giant stack of money, and when you open the door 15 minutes later, the money will be gone and they won’t know what happened.

Every league is different, but the common thread in the current lockouts is that the owners want players to save them from offering bad contracts. No matter what kind of system that players’ lawyers submit to in order to get their clients back on the field of play, owners will always find loopholes that allow them to spend money foolishly.

The biggest laugh I get is from people saying that the NBA needs to follow the model of the NHL, which shut down for an entire season but enjoyed record TV ratings just a few years after.

Those Stanley Cup ratings are a product of four straight years of Red Wings and Penguins and Blackhawks and Flyers and, this year, Bruins in the finals.

NBA fans, you’re just going to have to ride this one out. Unlike the NFL, which I never thought for a moment would cancel regular-season games, the NBA will not play a full season in 2011-12.

But at some point, they will come back.

And, yes, you will see Dirk Nowitzki, not only on the team’s website, but on a number of whatever national telecasts remain on the post-lockout schedule.

And the owners will have a new system, with something they perceive as a hard salary cap but will dutifully call something else (”flex” cap is the word of the week). It may even take them three or four years before they abuse it and cry for help once more.

TYLER FARRAR OF THE U.S. FORMS A ‘W’ as he crosses the finish line to win the third stage of the Tour de France cycling race over 198 kilometers (123 miles) starting in Olonne sur Mer, Vendee region, and finishing on Monday in Redon, Brittany, western France. Farrar held up a ‘W’’ to honor his friend and training partner Wouter Weylandt, who died in a crash during the Giro d’Italia in May.

Farrar wins Monday stage at Tour de France REDON, FRANCE — Two months ago, Tyler Farrar was demoralized, sleeping 20 hours a day. He had even stopped riding, overcome by sorrow after his best friend died in a crash at the Giro d’Italia.

On Monday, Farrar became the first American to win a stage of the Tour de France on the Fourth of July. It was the first time he had won a stage in cycling’s showcase race, and he dedicated the victory to the late Wouter Weylandt of Belgium.

“It’s a little bit unbelievable to me at the moment that it actually happened,” said Farrar, who pulled out of the Giro after the accident.

After crossing the finish line, Farrar held up his hands to form a ‘W’ with his fingers and thumbs in tribute to Weylandt.

“This has been a horrible last two months with everything that happened in the Giro,” Farrar said. “I’ve had a lot of ups and downs.

But in the end, I wanted to be able to come back, and do something special to pay tribute, and this is certainly the biggest stage in the world to do that.”

Farrar, a sprint specialist from Wenatchee, Wash., who rides for Garmin-Cervelo, sped ahead in the last few hundred yards of the 123-mile course from Olonne-sur-Mer to Redon to win the third stage. He has now won a stage in each of cycling’s three-week major tours — France, Italy and Spain.

“I certainly would have taken it on any day,” Farrar said. “But as an American, winning on the Fourth of July, it’s the icing on the cake. ...

Lucky me.”

MLB Pujols may return to Cardinals today ST. LOUIS — Albert Pujols could be back in the St. Louis Cardinals’ lineup as early as tonight, beating the initial timetable for his return from a broken left wrist by a month.

After taking indoor batting practice and fielding grounders outside on Monday, Pujols said there was no pain and added that he felt great. He’s scheduled to be examined by team physician Dr. George Paletta on Tuesday morning.

“I can’t wait to get back on the field,” Pujols said. “Hopefully, it can be tomorrow. If it’s not, whenever the time comes will be the right time to play.”

Tuesday is the first day Pujols is eligible to return from the 15-day disabled list. He broke the wrist in a collision at first base trying to make a tag with his glove hand of the Royals’ Wilson Betemit on June 19.

“Oh yeah, he’s ahead of schedule,” manager Tony La Russa said. “No doubt.”

Nats’ top pick Harper to Double-A WASHINGTON — Bryce Harper’s impressive stats earned the teenager a Fourth of July promotion Monday, moving on to Double-A as part of the Washington Nationals’ measured approach with last year’s No. 1 overall draft pick.

Harper was set to make his debut Monday night for the Harrisburg Senators of the Eastern League. The 18-year-old outfielder has been a hitting sensation at Class-A Hagerstown, ranking among league leaders with a .318 average along with 14 home runs, 46 RBIs and 19 stolen bases.

But the Nationals are sticking to their plan not to have Harper make his big league debut this year.

NFL Retired players feel excluded MINNEAPOLIS — While NFL owners and players appear to be inching toward a resolution of the league’s long lockout, a group of retired players is clamoring to be more involved in the discussions.

The group filed a class-action complaint against the owners and current players in federal court Monday, saying they have been excluded from the mediation sessions taking place in an attempt to end the lockout.

Named plaintiffs including Hall of Famers Carl Eller, Franco Harris, Marcus Allen and Paul Krause are asking U.S. District Judge Susan Richard Nelson to put a halt to the mediation she ordered and declare that the current players cannot negotiate on behalf of those who are retired.

Owners and current players have met five times over the last few weeks as they work to put together a new collective bargaining agreement in time to avoid the loss of training camps and games. They met with U.S. Magistrate Judge Arthur J. Boylan in Minneapolis last week, including for more than 15 hours on Thursday, and will resume meetings on Tuesday in New York.

The retired players say that NFL owners, the NFL Players’ Association and a group of current players including star quarterbacks Tom Brady, Peyton Manning and Drew Brees are “conspiring to depress the amounts of pension and disability benefits to be paid to former NFL players in order to maximize the salaries and benefits to current NFL players.”

The NFL declined comment on the complaint, which was first reported by the New York Times.

TENNIS Serbs welcome Djokovic after title BELGRADE, SERBIA — Novak Djokovic received an adoring welcome in Serbia on Monday after his championship at Wimbledon and on his first day as the world’s top-ranked tennis player.

Tens of thousands of fans chanted Djokovic’s nickname, “Nole, Nole,” as they gathered in front of the national assembly building in downtown Belgrade at a boisterous welcoming ceremony.

“You made this day the best day of my life,” Djokovic told the screaming crowd of mostly young people as he held a replica of the Wimbledon trophy that is given to the winners to keep.

“The Best Tennis Player in the World” read a sign on the stage erected in front of the assembly building.

Djokovic officially overtook Rafael Nadal as the No. 1-ranked player Monday after beating the Spaniard 6-4, 6-1, 1-6, 6-3 on Sunday in the Wimbledon final. It’s the first time in near1 ly 7 ⁄2 years that a man other than Nadal or Roger Federer is ranked No. 1.

Djokovic is 48-1 with eight titles this year, including two Grand Slam trophies.

White Sox wipe out Royals on balk call turned his shoulder, turned his head and stepped off. I don’t know.”

Royals outfielders Jeff Francouer was even more adamant.

“I love Ed Rapuano and he’s one of my favorite (umpires), but you better be damn well sure if someone balks when you call a game on that,” Francoeur said. “I understand if he drops the ball or blatantly moves, but he’s calling him for flinching when he’s stepping back off the mound — what the hell are you supposed to do? How are you supposed to step off? It’s a disappointing call.”

Adam Dunn hit a two-run homer in the eighth inning off Crow to make it 4-3. Dunn, who came in hitting .165, received a loud ovation from the 31,077 fans.

CHICAGO (AP) — The Kansas City Royals’ latest loss left them perplexed.

Aaron Crow committed a game-ending balk in the ninth inning and the Chicago White Sox beat Kansas City, 5-4, on Monday night after the Royals had tied it on a homer first ruled a triple in the top of the inning.

A.J. Pierzynski led off the ninth with a pinch-hit single off Crow (2-2), advancing to second on Gordon Beckham’s sacrifice bunt, then to third on a wild pitch. After striking out Mark Teahen, Crow walked pinch-hitter Juan Pierre. With Adam Dunn up and facing a 10 count, Crow stepped off the mound and home plate umpire Ed Rapuano called a balk, giving Chicago the win.

“I just thought I stepped straight off the back of the

but I couldn’t hear what (Rapuano) was saying ... It’s tough. At the same time, if I didn’t throw a wild pitch to let him get to third base, even if he did call a balk it wouldn’t cost us the game. I just have to keep out of those situations.”

Royals manager Ned Yost argued the call with Rapuano before heading back to the dugout.

“I don’t know how you can end a game like that,” Yost said. “They seem to all be in agreement in the umpires’ room that it was a balk. I’ve watched the video 15 times.

Kaun

Kaun — he’s been back in the U.S. for about a week — plans on joining the current Jayhawks in pick-up basketball games. He’s already been lifting weights under the supervision of KU assistant AD/sports performance Andrea Hudy.

“You want to rest a little bit, especially with our season so long — going from early September to the end of June,” Kaun said. “Playing on the national team makes it a little bit tougher. I’ll see what their schedules are. It’s always good to play with the guys here.”

Kaun — he played at KU from 2004-08 — still follows the Jayhawks closely. He was able to attend several games last winter as he rehabbed from patella surgery back in the U.S. “It was the first time since I left KU I got to come back and go to games. Watching them early in the season and seeing where they were at the end of the season, I definitely think

they grew as a team a lot,” Kaun said of the 35-3 Jayhawks. “I don’t think a lot of people expected us to be as good as those guys were at the end of the season. Who would have expected they would be a No. 1 seed? It was an amazing journey they went through. It shows the guys care. They want to get better, be coached and win.”

Kaun said he was saddened Big 12 regular-season and postseason champ KU fell to VCU in the Elite Eight.

“They had a bad game at the wrong time, if you think about it,” Kaun said. “It just happens. It’s the beauty of the NCAA Tournament. It’s not an NBA series. If you put those two teams in a series, we’d beat them nine out of 10 times probably, but the one time they had a bad game and unfortunately had to go home.”

Kaun, who helped KU to the 2008 national title, was asked to offer advice to future Jayhawk players.

“Definitely to have fun,” he said. “I watched the special on UCLA and (coach) John Wooden. He had this thing ... the guy never talked about winning or losing. It wasn’t his agenda with the team. As long as the team takes care of what needs to be taken care of, that’s the most important thing. The wins and losses come. Coach (Bill Self) has the same kind of mentality.

Everybody knows we need to win. The most important thing is do what it takes to win, do the right things.”

Kaun, 26, plans on “having fun” on the court a long time.

“Especially now that it has become my lifestyle, making money and playing professionally, it brings a lot of joy to me,” he said of basketball. “Of all the sports, I like to watch basketball, play basketball.

Def initely sometimes it’s tough with injuries and being hurt. Sometimes it gets you down, but besides that it’s lots of fun and making money at the same time.”

which was ranked as one of the Top 35 classes in the country by most recruiting services.

With just 13 scholarships available for the Class of 2012, Gill’s crew has encountered a vastly different recruiting landscape than the one with which it had such success a year ago. Smaller pools of athletes, deeper player evaluations and careful consideration of each offer has created a slight change of style. In short, the staff is making its list and checking it 10 times.

“You hate to say it, because you don’t want it to seem like you work harder some years than others,” Mitchell said.

“But, this year, because of our numbers, we’ve had to do an even better job of evaluating guys because with (13) scholarships you can’t afford to make a mistake.”

Three players — Overland Park offensive lineman Brian Beckmann, Florida cornerback Daniel Gray and Arkansas athlete Derek Keaton — already have made oral commitments to Kansas, which leaves the Jayhawks with 10 scholarships left to hand out.

Though the Jayhawks have

identified areas of need, they won’t stick to them blindly.

“It’s kind of like the NFL Draft,” Mitchell said. “You go in with a set plan, but you’re not gonna turn down a great player just to get a position of need. You’re gonna take the best players.”

Mitchell continued: “It’s not a perfect science, but we’ve watched guys and rewatched ’em and we’re really evaluating guys just to make sure we aren’t gonna miss on a guy. We’ve probably scrutinized them a little more than we have in the past.”

While the Jayhawks have fewer scholarships to dish out and different paths to pursue this time around, their main objective remains the same as it was last year.

“We’re trying to get speed,” Mitchell said.

doesn’t have to be at home two weeks by herself.”

Kaun, who averaged 7.6 points and 4.0 rebounds a game in limited duty last season because of a knee injury that required surgery, exploded on the international scene last summer. He averaged 10.4 points and 6.3 boards for Russia at the World Championships.

He will join Russia’s national team later this month with hopes of leading his country to a first-place finish at the European championships and automatic qualifying spot in the 2012 London Olympics.

“I think it would be a cool experience to be in the Olympics,” Kaun said. “If we don’t get first place we have to go to qualifications next year.

We’re not in automatically.

We’ve got some good players on the team.”

QB’s CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

The numbers show Mitchell’s claim to be dead on.

During the past 10 seasons, KU has signed a quarterback in every class. In five of those 10 classes, the Jayhawks signed two QBs. Nine of the 15 guys on that list stayed at quarterback — eight of those started at least one game — while four moved to wide receiver, one moved to tight end and one left the program a year after arriving. While it’s still too early to tell where freshmen Berglund or Cummings will play, it’s safe to expect KU to keep recruiting QBs behind them.

“One thing I learned about the quarterback position a long time ago is you never know,” offensive coordinator Chuck Long said. “You never know.”

Recruiting a different game with Class of 2012 During their first full season at Kansas, the KU coaching staff signed 27 players in the Class of 2011,

Do I have the right to forbid a male nurse from attending me? I was told that since female nurses can examine male patients, a male nurse should be able to do the same with females. The anxiety is killing me just thinking about ACROSS it. What should I do? — Mod1 Muscle est in Iowa

Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell

Dear Modest: Most health professionals have no prurient interest in their patients.

A nurse, male or female, who removes a catheter is acting solely in a medical capacity.

He was not “violating” you.

However, you are entitled to request only female nurses if the hospital can provide them. Please don’t let your anxiety keep you from followup treatment. Talk to your

‘Talent’ hopefuls shock audiences with misdirection New hopefuls audition on "America's Got Talent" (7 p.m., NBC), followed by a repeat (8 p.m.) from last week. The memorable talent on "Talent" seems to be trained in the art of misdirection. A dancer comes out and discusses his classical training and then stuns the audience with a pole-dancing routine. A gum-chewing car wash attendant in dreadlocks from West Virginia blows everyone away with a Vegas-ready impersonation of the Chairman of the Board. What you see is not necessarily what you get.

I'm not generally in the business of Monday morning quarterbacking, but did anybody see the finale of "The Voice" last week? I'm inclined to forgive and forget, but this show threatens to return, so a little criticism is in order.

For starters, it was a finale, the culmination of a (short) season's work. But the atmosphere was decidedly flat.

Even when the outcome seems obvious, as it often does on "American Idol," they still amp up the effervescence. I never thought I'd be singing the praises of Ryan Seacrest, but when Carson Daly announced, "It's only seven minutes until we reveal 'The Voice,'" he seemed almost eager to get out of the building and to put the whole thing behind him. He might as well have looked down at his watch.

And maybe somebody should have been watching the clock. By the time the winner Javier Colon was announced, there was barely time for a group hug and a feeble confetti drop. He didn't get a chance to perform as the newly anointed "Voice." He just stood there, somewhat awkwardly, as the show simply ran out of time. Long after it had run out of gas. ● About 90 percent of documentaries tend to belabor the obvious with heavyhanded narration that gives the audience no credit for the ability to reach its own conclusion. Tonight's "POV" (9 p.m., PBS) offering, "Sweetgrass," goes a tad too far in the other direction.

Don't get me wrong; it's a gorgeous film and an often-mesmerizing meditation on the vanishing way of life of the Montana sheep farmer. But if you've ever watched somebody meditate, a little watching goes a long way.

Filled with beautiful scenes of pastoral life and rugged scenery, "Sweetgrass" is audaciously dull. Brazenly boring. It explores the fine line between hypnotic and catatonic.

The first two or three minutes of the film consist of a sheep staring at the camera. Chewing. Something. A full 13 minutes go by before a human voice is heard. And it's directed at a wayward sheep, not the audience. If you like long (and I mean long), lingering glances at sheep herds in motion, "Sweetgrass" is the film for you.

At one point we're shown a tired cowboy sleeping, waking up and then falling asleep again. I had a similar experience while watching "Sweetgrass."

TV-themed DVDs available today include the first season of the Nickelodeon tween comedy "Victorious."

Tonight’s other highlights ● Life is hard in the Big Easy on "Kitchen Nightmares" (7 p.m., Fox). ● A baker's dozen compete on "MasterChef" (8 p.m., Fox). ● Vinny bakes something nice for the cast of Broadway's "Billy Elliot" on "Staten Island Cakes" (8 p.m., WE).

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS For Tuesday, July 5: This year, you naturally will transform your mental outlook and perspective.

These changes could have ramifications beyond the obvious. If you are single, you could meet someone through a friend, or a friendship could become more. A change in your circle of friends also could have an impact. If you are attached, the two of you need to work on your friendship, too. Virgo helps you open up.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You'll Have: 5Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) ★★★★ You could be taken aback by various situations, feeling that you are getting too much information. A boss streamlines a directive. Tonight: Stay fit. Get some exercise.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) ★★★★★ You often wonder where a situation ends and begins. You also could be crossing boundaries inadvertently.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) ★★★★ Keep communication flowing. How you deal with someone and the choices you make could be more instrumental than you might think. Tonight: Hang out with a friend.

Clear the air.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) ★★★ Be aware of the costs of proceeding in a certain direction. You might need to revise your thoughts. Determining a new direction could be important. Tonight: Stick to your budget.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ★★★★ You might be so upbeat that you actually make someone angry!

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ★★★ Your drive to figure out what is going on and to get all the facts will pay off. The less said the better off you will be.

Tonight: Take some muchneeded personal time.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ★★★★★ Zero in on what you want. Someone who is quite close could be antagonistic or jealous.

Though you might try a few gentle words, only this person can decide to change his or her mind.

Tonight: Where the fun is.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22Dec. 21) ★★★ Tension builds around work. You feel as if you don't have the say-so you would like. Without intending to, you could irritate people left and right.

Tonight: A force to be dealt with.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ★★★★ Keep reaching out for more information in order to illuminate a situation. In some sense, you could be driven to find the right answer or response.

Tonight: Hop on the computer.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ★★★★ A good friend could be making some demands. You might not be able to meet them in the fashion you would choose.

Tonight: Chat over dinner.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) ★★★★ You might want to handle a personal matter in a different way, especially if there are many side effects. Knowing what you want could be instrumental in creating just that.

Tonight: Go with someone else's suggestion.

Dear Annie: I’m 22 years old and recently needed an operation in the only hospital in our area. I am an extremely shy and modest female and would never go to a male doctor except in an emergency.

Luckily, I was able to arrange for a female surgeon and an all-female surgery team.

However, while I was in the recovery room, a young male nurse — a guy with whom I had gone to high school — came into the room and told me he was there to remove my catheter. I was stunned. I told him there was no way I would allow him to do that. He tried to convince me, saying, “I’m a nurse. It’s OK,” but I wouldn’t back down. He finally found a female nurse after I threatened to sue him if he came any closer.

Am I wrong to feel that a young male my age, especially someone I know, should not have access to the most intimate and private parts of my body, especially since removing a catheter is not an emergency?

I made a pact with my boyfriend that no male will see me undressed until I marry, and then only my husband. When I told my boyfriend about this nurse, he was ready to knock the guy’s block off.

MAJOR-LEAGUE ROUNDUP

Indians power past Yanks, spoil Jeter’s return American League

American League

East Division

Indians 6, Yankees 3 CLEVELAND — Austin Kearns hit his first homer in 105 atbats this season, a stunning three-run shot in the seventh inning off New York’s A.J. Burnett, to send Jeter Cleveland to a victory and spoil Derek Jeter’s return to the Yankees’ lineup Monday night.

Jeter was back at shortstop and again atop the batting order for the first time since June 13, when he went on the disabled list with a calf injury.

New York’s captain went 0for-4 and remained six shy of becoming the first Yankees player to reach 3,000 hits.

Josh Tomlin (10-4), who carried a no-hitter into the seventh, allowed two runs and three hits. The Indians’ righthander also became the first pitcher since 1919 to go at least five innings in each of his first 29 career appearances.
