Local officials dedicated to saving Lawrence SRS

Weinaug

Talks are under way to save the Lawrence off ice of the Kansas Department of Social and Rehabilitation Services, officials said Friday.

Douglas County commissioners

met in closed session to gather information aimed at keeping the office in operation.

And a meeting is scheduled next week between House Minority Leader Paul Davis, D-Lawrence, and Gov. Sam Brownback.

“I’m encouraged that SRS and the governor’s office are at least willing

to talk with us,” Davis said.

Brownback and SRS Secretary Robert Siedlecki Jr. have proposed closing nine SRS offices, including the one in Lawrence, to save $1 million in administrative costs.

Douglas County commissioners met with Administrator Craig Weinaug and Chris Berger, assis-

tant county counselor, for 80 minutes Friday afternoon, during an executive session at the Douglas County Courthouse called to discuss matters deemed privileged through their attorney-client relationship.

A rundown of road woes

JACK PAGE, RIGHT, OF WILDCAT CONCRETE SERVICES takes a break to wipe sweat from his face as he and others chip away bad concrete from the outside southbound lane of the Kansas River Bridge as resurfacing of the bridge continued on Thursday. The bridge work is one of various construction projects that have complicated getting around town this summer.

It’s ‘part of life,’ but some projects will soon be over

By Mark Fagan mfagan@ljworld.com

Your car’s idling, you’re sweating, and your destination is waiting.

But there’s no sense complaining about the road work that’s putting the brakes on your daily travel at seemingly every turn, according to a guy who feels your pain.

“It’s in every town, all summer long,” said Brad Minnick, a salesman from Lawrence who visits hundreds of communities, large and small, throughout

northeast Kansas and runs into barricades, orange cones and flag-wielding construction workers at each stop.

“It’s just part of life. If you’re not able to deal with it, my own personal opinion is you might need to get some help yourself.”

But before you book an appointment with an anger-management therapist, take a deep breath and check out this list of projects that are among the most disruptive in and around Lawrence.

The soothing message: There’s a light at the end of the tunnel — or,

better yet, a fresh and smooth road surface at the end of each project.

A rundown: ● Sixth Street, from Missouri to Tennessee streets, down to one lane each way for repaving and addition of a right-turn lane at Maine Street, with scheduled completion Aug. 8. After that, the stretch from Missouri to Iowa streets will be down to one lane in each direction for repaving and addition of a right-turn lane at Michigan Street, expected to be finished in midSeptember. ● Sixth Street, from Monterey Way Please see ROAD, page 2A

WASHINGTON — In an unforgiving display of partisanship, the Republican-controlled House approved emergency legislation Friday night to avoid an unprecedented government default and Senate Democrats scuttled it less than two hours later in hopes of a better deal.

“We are almost out of time” for a compromise, warned President Barack Obama as U.S. financial markets trembled at the prospect of economic chaos next week.

The Dow Jones average fell for a sixth straight session.

Lawmakers in both parties said they were determined to avoid a default, yet there was little evidence of progress — or even significant negotiations — on a compromise during a long day of intense political maneuvering.

Boehner The House vote was 218-210, almost entirely along party lines, on a Republicandrafted bill to provide a quick $900 billion increase in U.S. borrowing authority — essential to allow the government to continue paying all its bills — along with $917 billion in cuts from federal spending.

It had been rewritten hastily overnight to say that before any additional increase in the debt limit could take place, Congress must approve a balanced-budget amendment to the Constitution and send it to the states for ratification. That marked a concession to tea party-backed conservatives and others in the rank and file who had thwarted House Speaker John Boehner’s attempt to pass the bill Please see DEBT, page 2A

HOW THEY VOTED How Kansas’ representatives in the U.S. House voted for the GOP bill aimed at preventing a government default (all are Republicans. A “yes” vote is a vote to pass the bill): Huelskamp, N; Jenkins, Y; Pompeo, Y; Yoder, Y. How Kansas’ senators voted on the House-passed bill (both are Republicans. A “yes” vote is a vote to reject the bill): Moran, No; Roberts, No.

City working to keep water treatment plant operating as repairs are made

By Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

You think you’re having a hard time keeping up with your watering chores?

Crews with the city’s water department are struggling to keep one of Lawrence’s two water treatment plants operating as temperatures remain high and dry conditions persist.

The city is undertaking at least

$200,000 worth of emergency repairs at the Kaw Water Treatment Plant near Third and Indiana streets.

As previously reported, the aging plant had to be shut down in early June after a key pipe became clogged and the plant was unable to draw water from the Kansas River.

On Friday, city officials acknowledged that the plant had to be shut down a second time — about two weeks ago — for the same reasons.

“It is a significant problem, and

It is a significant problem, and we don’t know exactly what is causing it.”

— Jeanette Klamm, a spokeswoman for the city’s utilities department we don’t know exactly what is causing it,” said Jeanette Klamm, a spokeswoman for the city’s utilities department.

The second shutdown did cause the city to ask some of its larger water users — Kansas University, golf courses and other major irrigators — to voluntarily reduce their water usage until the problem could be resolved. The plant was brought back online the next day, and normal water production resumed.

Thus far, Klamm said, city officials do not think it is likely the problems at the plant will require residential customers to begin cur-

“We don’t anticipate that right now,” Klamm said. “We’re not at that point.”

But water department leaders are plenty concerned.

“It is imperative that we figure out what is going on,” Klamm said.

Scheduled completion: mid-August. ● Kentucky Street, from 17th to 19th streets, down to one lane for replacement of waterlines. Scheduled completion: Undetermined, but entire project — split into successive one- and two-block sections heading north to 12th Street — is to be finished in January. ● Ninth Street, from Vermont to Tennessee streets, down to one lane in each direction for replacement of waterlines.

Still more major work awaits: From early to late September, a city project calls for resurfacing all lanes and reconfiguring center-lane medians along Kasold Drive, from Trail to Peterson roads. The work will reduce traffic to one lane in each direction along Kasold.

But the work has to end sometime, right? And that sometime is moving ever closer, said Mark Thiel, who oversees many of the projects as the city’s assistant director of public works.

“We’ve got another six to eight weeks of good construction weather,” he said.

“We’re continuing to work on that issue,” said Jim Flory, a Republican who serves as commission chairman.

Added Mike Gaughan, a Democrat, “We have not yet had any discussions with the state about alternative outcomes. However, everybody recognizes the importance of resolving this in a way that maintains the relationships and the unique services that SRS is able to provide to our community.”

Gaughan added: “We’re looking forward to working with the state to keep this office open.”

The Lawrence office, with 87 employees who assist thousands of clients, is by far the largest slated for closure.

Since the announcement July 1, officials in Lawrence have asked Brownback to keep the office open, saying

Debt CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

Thursday night.

“Today we have a chance to end this debt limit crisis,” Boehner declared, his endgame strategy upended by rebels within his own party.

But the changes he made to the House GOP bill further alienated Democrats. And they complicated prospects of a compromise that could clear both houses and win Obama’s signature by next Tuesday’s deadline.

‘Last chance’ At the other end of the Capitol, Senate Democrats rejected the measure without so much as a debate. The vote was 59-41, with all Democrats, two independents and six Republicans joining in opposition.

Moments later, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., unveiled an alternative that would cut spending by $2.4 trillion and raise the debt limit by the same amount, enough to meet Obama’s terms that it tide the Treasury over until 2013.

Reid invited Republicans to suggest changes, saying, “This is likely our last chance to save this nation from default.”

The Senate GOP leader, Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, accused Democrats of “rounding up ‘no’ votes to keep this crisis alive,” and noted the House had passed two bills to raise the debt limit and the Senate none.

The House, eager to return the Senate’s favor rejecting the Boehner bill, set a vote to reject Reid’s proposal today.

The Senate set a test vote at about 1 a.m. on Sunday, a middle-of-the-night roll call that underscored the limited time available to lawmakers.

—Douglas County legislators, in a letter to Gov. Brownback the decision to shut it down was made with incomplete information.

Siedlecki has said closing the Lawrence operations — housed in two buildings at 1900 and 1901 Del. — would save the state $400,000, mostly in rental costs.

But about half the rent is paid for with federal funds.

And a possible lawsuit against the state for breaking its lease at the SRS office could negate any savings, local officials have said.

Some in the community have suggested local government could help out with the costs, but no public discussion among policymakers of that has taken place yet.

Brownback and Siedlecki have also argued that SRS

clients could access services online or by traveling to offices in Topeka, Kansas City or Overland Park. Advocates for the poor and those with disabilities say many SRS services, such as applying for Medicaid, cannot be done online, and many of those seeking assistance don’t have transportation to other cities.

“Our most vulnerable citizens lack the resources or ability to travel 40 miles and would therefore be left unable to access services when a visit is required,” Douglas County legislators said in a letter to Brownback.

“Overall, it may not be cutting costs, but simply shifting them to the community, the clients and to other state agencies,” the letter said.

It was signed by state Sens.

Marci Francisco, D-Lawrence, Anthony Hensley, D-Topeka, and Tom Holland, D-Baldwin City, and state Reps. Barbara Ballard, D-Lawrence, TerriLois Gregory, R-Baldwin City, Ann Mah, D-Topeka, Tom Sloan, R-Lawrence, and Davis.

appealed for bipartisanship, he and other party leaders accused Boehner of caving in to extremists in the GOP Reid ranks — “the last holdouts of the tea party,” Sen. Richard Durbin of Illinois called them.

Republicans conceded that the overnight delay had weakened Boehner’s hand in the endgame with Obama and Senate Democrats.

But the Ohio Republican drew applause from his rank and file when he said the House, alone, had advanced legislation to cut deficits, and that he had “stuck his neck out” in recent weeks in hopes of concluding a sweeping deficit reduction deal with Obama.

Boehner’s measure would provide a quick $900 billion increase in borrowing authority — essential for the U.S. to keep paying all its bills after next Tuesday — and $917 billion in spending cuts.

After the bill’s latest alteration, any future increases in the debt limit would be contingent on Congress approving the constitutional amendment and sending it to the states for ratification.

“With conservatives insisting on the addition of a balanced-budget amendment requirement, Speaker Boehner’s bill will now cut, cap and balance” federal spending, said Rep. Jeff Flake of Arizona as Friday’s scheduled vote approached.

The White House called the bill a nonstarter. Press secretary Jay Carney issued a statement that called it a “political exercise” and said congressional leaders should turn their efforts to a compromise that Obama can sign by Tuesday.

Lost leverage?

The developments occurred one day after Boehner was forced to postpone a vote in the House for fear the earlier version of his measure would suffer a defeat.

But by forcing a delay the conservative rebels upended the leadership’s strategy of making their bill the only one that could clear Congress before a default and win Obama’s reluctant signature.

“Everybody acknowledges that because of the dust-up yesterday we’ve lost some leverage,” said Rep. Steven LaTourette, R-Ohio, an ally of the speaker.

The rebels said they were more worried about stemming the nation’s steady rise of red ink.

Rep. Jeff Landry, R-La., a, a first-term lawmaker, issued a statement saying his pressure had paid off.

“The American people have strongly renewed their November calls of bringing fiscal sanity to Washington. I am blessed to be a vehicle driving their wishes to fruition,” he said. “This plan is not a Washington deal but a real solution to fundamentally change the way Washington operates.”

Administration officials say that without legislation in place by Tuesday, the Treasury will no longer be able to pay all its bills. The result could inflict significant damage on the economy, they add, causing interest rates to rise and financial markets to sink.

Executives from the country’s biggest banks met with U.S. Treasury officials to discuss how debt auctions will be handled if Congress fails to raise the borrowing limit before Tuesday’s deadline.

But Carney said the administration did not plan to provide the public with details Friday on how the government will prioritize payments.

more modern plant that treats water pulled from Clinton Lake. That plant has the ability to provide water to the entire community during normal conditions, but Klamm said it does become strained when water demands are high from people watering their lawns.

The situation at the Kaw plant has been exacerbated by the fact the plant is designed to run with two water intakes. But one of the water intakes has been inoperable for several years. The city’s proposed 2012 budget — scheduled to be approved Tuesday — includes more than $7 million for that intake to be repaired.

Other problems, though, also are surfacing at the plant.

Water plant officials said a key debris screen and a clarifying filter have been badly damaged. Fixing those two parts are included in the $200,000 worth of emergency repairs. Klamm said it will be critical for those pieces to be operational before the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers begins raising the water levels in the Kaw by releasing water held in upstream lakes. When those releases begin, the amount of debris in the river increases significantly.

“That would be a big issue for us to deal with,” Klamm said.

FBI names Ottawa bank robbery suspect

1 | LIBYA

Commander killed by fellow rebels The Libyan rebels’ military commander was killed by his comrades while in custody after he was arrested by the opposition’s leadership on suspicion of treason, witnesses said Friday, in a sign of disarray that posed a major setback for the movement battling Moammar Gadhafi.

The slaying of Abdel-Fattah Younis raised fear and uncertainty in Benghazi, the de facto rebel capital.

Thousands marched behind his coffin, wrapped in the rebels’ tricolor flag, to the graveyard for his burial, chanting that he was a martyr “beloved by God.” Troops fired a military salute as the coffin arrived, and angry and grieving supporters fired wildly into the air with automatic weapons.

At the graveside, Younis’ son, Ashraf, broke down, crying and screaming as they lowered the body into the ground and — in a startling and risky display in a city that was the first to shed Gadhafi’s rule nearly six months ago — pleaded hysterically for the return of the Libyan leader to bring stability.

2 | TEXAS

AWOL soldier shouts in court Coolly defiant, Pfc. Naser Abdo shouted “Nidal Hasan Fort Hood 2009!” as he was led out of the courtroom Friday, an apparent homage to the suspect in the worst mass shooting ever on a U.S. military installation. He condemned the attack less than a year ago but is now accused of trying to repeat it.

Investigators say Abdo, who cited his Muslim beliefs in requesting conscientious objector status last year, was found in a motel room three miles from Fort Hood’s main gate with a handgun, an article titled “Make a bomb in the kitchen of your Mom” and the ingredients for an explosive device, including gunpowder, shrapnel and pressure cookers. An article with that title appears in an al-Qaida magazine.

Minnesota man charged with kidnapping wife

By Chris Hong chong@ljworld.com

A Minnesota man charged with kidnapping his wife also has been named as a suspect in a July 15 bank robbery in Ottawa.

Bridget Patton, public affairs specialist for the FBI in Kansas City, said Timothy Glen Caskey matches the physical description of the bank robbery suspect.

Patton said Caskey has not been charged with the bank robbery.

Ottawa bank robber, believed to be Timothy Glen Caskey of Minnesota

Authorities allege that Caskey abducted his wife, Roberta Caskey, on July 14 as she walked with a friend in Virginia, Minn.

Timothy Caskey had just been released from a jail near Duluth, which is about an hour south of Virginia, where he’d been held on charges of violating a protective order against his wife.

The following day, on July 15, a man entered Great Southern Bank in Ottawa and handed the teller a note demanding money.

The suspect did not show a weapon and fled with an undisclosed amount of cash in a red pickup truck. A woman was a passenger in the red truck.

Ottawa is about 640 miles southwest along Interstate 35 from Duluth.

The next day, a used-car dealer in New Braunfels, Texas, reported seeing a couple matching the Caskeys’ description.

Raw politics takes center stage in debt/budget drama

By Dolph C. Simons Jr.

The headlines read: “Political gridlock worries Wall Street,” “Budget stalemate drags stocks down most in almost 2 months,” “Impasse could be costly for states,” “Race on to get debt plans in form for vote,” “With the debt limit, no raise lasts forever,” “Magic things can happen in every Congress in a short period of time, under the right circumstances,” “What would Reagan do,” “How to end an idiotic game of chicken,” “Leaders crack down on their rank and file,” “U.S. downgrade may ‘be a big thing,’” “Washington has four days to raise debt ceiling,” “Treasury will default on some bills.”

Stories tell of threats about Social Security checks not being mailed, U.S. servicemen and servicewomen not being paid and many other similar actions where federal funds would be withheld because Uncle Sam would not be able to meet his obligations.

As one of President Barack Obama’s top advisers said several years ago, never let a good crisis go to waste.

It’s obvious this advice is in the forefront for Obama’s inner circle

Feathers 3 for $18, 5 for $30

and also in the minds of many GOP strategists.

The national debt, uncontrolled spending, a balanced budget, our national security, unemployment and illegal immigration all will be major issues in the 2012 elections.

Some are suggesting it will be a vicious and dirty campaign.

But now, raw politics is at center stage in this terribly serious theatrical drama being played out in Congress and the White House with the final curtain only hours or days away.

President Obama has been focused on his re-election in 2012 since he moved into the White House in January 2009. Most every action has been based on what is in his best interests and what gives him the best chance to win a second term.

He does not want any of the debt ceiling or uncontrolled spending debate carrying over into 2012, which would cloud his popularity and re-election efforts.

The same thinking is at center stage with Democratic senators and House members who face re-election next year. They and the president don’t want to anger the millions of potential voters receiving federal entitlement money by talking about cuts. At the same time,

they know growing numbers of thinking Americans realize there must be cuts in these massive entitlement programs, which cannot be sustained if there is any hope of ever coming close to a balanced national budget.

COMMENTARY Republicans also are well aware they have the opportunity to use 2012 as a means of calling for and getting action now because Democrats are so fearful of this mess being pushed into the election year.

Numerous Democrats have suggested making a temporary fix now but postponing more serious action on debt/ borrowing /spending issues until after the November 2012 election when they hope Obama will be given another four years in the White House. He would use these additional years to further “change” in America, turning it into a far more socialist nation and making big government even bigger.

Republicans who were elected in the 2010 landslide were put into office to live up to their pledges of bringing fiscal sanity to Washing-

ton. The public was sufficiently stirred up prior to the 2010 election to elect those candidates who pledged to fight for lower federal spending and more favorable tax rates to encourage business and reduce unemployment numbers.

It will be difficult for these new House and Senate members to go back to their districts and ask to be re-elected if they have not performed as they pledged.

Obama is fighting for political survival, and he will be using every possible ploy to win votes, including stirring fears by telling his supporters that if the GOP wins the White House, millions upon millions of entitlement dollars will dry up.

Only a few days remain before the Aug. 2 deadline set by Obama as the date when the United States will default on its obligations and lose the confidence and trust of the rest of the world — unless Congress agrees to raise the national debt ceiling by trillions of dollars.

Voters — more importantly, concerned citizens — should realize that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada would not even allow his fellow senators to vote on the Houseapproved measure calling for a lim-

ited rise in the national debt but a larger cut in national spending.

How does he justify not even allowing a debate on this approach to the issue?

When will the time come when those elected to serve in Congress and in the presidency will have the nation’s best interest as their main goal rather than raw politics and personal gain?

Both parties are guilty of playing this game, in the past and today, but Obama and his gang have brought it to a new, ugly and dangerous high.

The public cannot allow itself to be comforted by thinking everything usually turns out OK and that, over the nation’s history, crises have come and gone but, in the end, we still are a strong, healthy country.

There is no guarantee this will always be the case. Obama’s plan and dreams of changing this country could easily turn into a nightmare, with serious and lasting consequences: a far different and weaker America with fewer freedoms and opportunities for its citizens, a nation that no longer is the world’s respected leader and superpower fighting for freedom and opportunity for individuals throughout the world.

BRIEFLY Judge orders new trial in sexual battery case

Governor appoints Native American liaison

A Douglas County judge has ordered a 28-year-old man who has served five years in prison for a sexual battery conviction should get a new trial based on new evidence in the case.

According to court records, District Judge Robert Fairchild granted Jason Ellison’s motion for a new trial last week after he heard evidence at a hearing last week and earlier this month.

COURTS A jury in November 2006 convicted Ellison of aggravated sexual battery and acquitted him of attempted aggravated criminal sodomy after a sister of Ellison’s former girlfriend in July 2006 accused him of attempting to molest her twice in Lawrence. Fairchild sentenced Ellison to serve 22 years in prison based on his criminal history. A Kansas Court of Appeals panel earlier upheld the conviction.

But Ellison and his attorney, Napoleon Crews, argued that several people since the trial said they heard the woman say her allegations about him were not true. The allegations from the witnesses came as part of an investigation by student interns at the Kansas University School of Law’s Paul E. Wilson Project for Innocence and Post-Conviction Remedies.

Douglas County prosecutors had argued the witnesses Ellison was relying on were biased and that the evidence did not meet the legal standard for a new trial.

District Attorney Charles Branson said Friday his office would review Fairchild's decision, attempt to meet with the victim and then decide on a course of action.

TOPEKA — Gov. Sam Brownback on Friday announced the appointment of Chris Howell as Native American liaison.

Howell, a member of the Pawnee Nation of Oklahoma and a Lawrence native, will work to ensure that Native American concerns are addressed in state policy decisions, the governor’s office said.

He will also coordinate communications between tribal governments and state agencies. Kansas is home to four Native American tribes: the Kickapoo, Prairie Band Potawatomi, Sac and Fox, and the Iowa.

“Native American Kansans play a very important role in our state’s history, culture and economy,” Brownback said. “It is essential for them to have a direct line into the governor’s office.”

Howell has worked in state government for 19 years, most recently as chief operating officer for the Kansas Arts Commission. Brownback defunded that agency in a veto.

Howell will be paid $65,000 a year in what is a new position, according to the governor’s office. Several state agencies, including the governor’s office, are sharing in the cost of Howell’s salary, the governor’s office said.

City to repair 23rd St. water main leak The city will repair a water main leak on 23rd Street early Monday.

In fact, the repairs on the leak at 814 W. 23rd St. will start at midnight Sunday and will be done by 6 a.m. Monday, said Jeanette Klamm, the city’s utilities programs manager.

Westbound traffic will be reduced to one lane during the work, and water supplied to several restaurants, including McDonald’s, will be shut off.

All businesses that will be affected by the shutoff have been notified.

Public comment sought on library expansion Lawrence Public Library will host another round of public comment about the proposed design for a $19 million expansion of the library.

The meeting will be at 2 p.m. Aug. 6 at the library, 707 Vt. The event will feature a presentation from architects for the project and will include time for the public to ask questions or make comments about the design.

The project includes an expansion of about 20,000 square feet of the downtown library and the construction of a new 250-space parking garage.

Museum to put on Civil War open house Douglas County Historical Society will host an open house Aug. 11 commemorating the Civil War. The event features displays, presentations, tours and handouts. A new exhibit called “It Happened on Mass. Street: 150 Years in Lawrence” will also open to the public that evening.

Historical societies from across the area will be participating in the event, which runs from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the Watkins Community Museum of History, 1047 Mass.

The event is free and open to the public. For more information, call the museum at 841-4109.

“

I like seeing how the other racers do. And I like riding her fast.”

— Cassidy Jones, a 9-year-old barrel racer who won the Pee-Wee Division

Fair CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

Jones is a former competitive rider herself, and this year her 9-year-old daughter Cassidy won the Pee-Wee Division atop Sonita, whom they call “Sony” for short.

“I like seeing how the other racers do,” Cassidy said. “And I like riding her fast.”

Cassidy began riding in November and now spends nearly every weekend at area competitions. In addition to barrel racing, she also competes in goat-tying and polebending events. She said she helps care for her horse at her Leavenworth County home, and saddles and cleans her off after competition.

Some of the youngest barrel racers had parents jogging alongside to help them guide their horses, but Cassidy and other youngsters raced unaided.

“It’s great for kids,” Jones said. “It teaches them discipline and respect.”

Though men are allowed to enter, by tradition it’s a competition dominated by women. This year was no different, with a nearly allfemale contestant group.

Division winners received about $200 in prize money.

“We have little kids that love it, we have older people that love it,” Zaremba said.

“We just have a great time with it.”

Robbery CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

Police said the man asked to test drive a white 1998 Chevrolet Z71 truck and provided Timothy Caskey’s driver’s license in exchange.

The man drove the truck off the lot but didn’t return with it.

Police then recovered Caskey’s red 1991 GMC Sierra truck, with a knife under the seat, at the dealership.

New Braunfels, also along I-35, is about 730 miles southwest of Ottawa and about 190 miles from the Mexican border.

Detective Tim Koivunen of the Virginia Police Department said Timothy Caskey has previously been arrested in Mexico so it’s possible he was headed there again.

Caskey’s criminal record includes domestic violence, carjacking and drug charges.

Caskey faces federal kidnapping charges, and Minnesota police issued arrest warrants for false imprisonment and parole violation.

The FBI is offering $5,000 for information leading to his arrest.

I’m a beautiful girl with my sassy black stripes and gorgeous green eyes. And I’ve got a cute white muzzle and whiskers. Because I’m so soft, you’ll want to pet me forever … which I’ll love along with a good chin scratch. I’m 2 to 3 years old and was lost from my former home. So I’m really lonesome for someone to love. If you’re looking for someone to love, we’ll be a purr-fect pair!

I’m the ultimate exercise machine! In fact, I need someone committed to running with me regularly. Moreover, I’m a gorgeous boy: an American Staffordshire Terrier, 3 years old, and I’ve got a rich coat of brindle brown and bright white markings. I’m very energetic outdoors, but inside I’m a true gentleman, stately and steady. I’d prefer to be the only dog in the home — guess I want you all to myself.

KU not yet revealing possible efficiency measures

By Andy Hyland ahyland@ljworld.com

An efficiency and effectiveness study at Kansas University is continuing to progress, but university officials aren’t saying much — at least for now — about how they will achieve those new efficiencies.

Huron Consulting Group is conducting the study and is being paid with a contract for up to $2.28 million, using private dollars, if all of its initiatives are implemented.

The consulting group has already presented a list of about 40 options to KU, and an executive committee will pare that list to about eight to 10 “business cases,” which will be examined further.

KU officials said that while they would be releasing the list of about 10 areas they will examine further, they will not be divulging the 40 or so initial options that Huron provided.

Jack Martin, a KU spokesman, said the university didn’t want to cause “unnecessary anxiety” by having people see a list of areas that were only suggested for review.

The same question came up at a town hall meeting on the consulting plan this week. An audience member asked if the list of about 40 initial items would be made public.

Jeff Vitter, KU’s provost, said university officials had no plans to do that.

“If something is put forward that we don’t really intend to pursue, especially if it’s somewhat problematic in really not fitting in with KU, it could cause all kinds of alarms and get people concerned about something that is never going to happen anyway,” Vitter said.

Still, a few of the kinds of things KU is looking at are known. One audience member at the town hall identified herself as a student-housing employee.

“We have heard that there is a consideration of us being absorbed by (Facilities Operations), and I was wondering how that would benefit me as an employee of student housing,” she said. “Our focus is on our students, and maintaining that they have good housing and they get the services that they need.”

John Curry, a managing director for Huron, confirmed that they had looked at that as an option.

“It’s not a foregone conclusion at all,” he said. “But it’s something that we will be thinking about today and maybe thinking about further.”

A Facilities Operations employee asked if there were plans for reductions in KU’s workforce. Diane Goddard, KU’s vice provost for administration and finance, said the university didn’t go into the process with the goal of fewer staff.

“Our hope is that if there are reductions in workforce, that those will be achieved either through attrition, or they will be achieved by retooling people and giving people the opportunity to learn new skills and to step into new roles,” Goddard said.

Vitter said KU could be releasing more information on the 10 or so areas of focus within the next two weeks.

State compiled no data to support abortion clinic rules

Attorney says Kansas can’t prove justification for new regulations

By John Hanna Associated Press Writer

TOPEKA — Kansas officials drafted new regulations for abortion providers without independently compiling data or studies on how the new rules would make the procedures safer for the women seeking them, and attorneys for providers expect the apparent lack of such research to be a central issue in a federal lawsuit challenging the rules.

Teresa Woody, a Kansas City, Mo., attorney representing two Kansas doctors who perform abortions, said Friday that the providers don’t think the state can show it has a medical justification for the new regulations. The rules tell providers what drugs and equipment they must stock and set requirements for room sizes and temperatures, among other things.

The rules were supposed to take effect July 1, but U.S. District Judge Carlos Murguia, in Kansas City, blocked their enforcement until the lawsuit is resolved. After an initial hearing, Murg uia questioned whether the state had compiled evidence showing the Kansas Department of Health and Environment’s rules were “rationally related” to protecting patients.

The Associated Press then f iled an open records request, seeking a copy of studies, reports or summaries of data compiled by the department’s staff from Jan. 1 through early July, or summaries of existing data or studies used in drafting the regulations. A response said the department “has no document that meets this request.”

“We don’t think any of these regulations are medically necessary,” Woody told The Associated Press. “If they have research out there that shows the regulations are medically necessary, we haven’t seen it.”

Health department officials have said they based their regulations on rules from other states, most notably Arizona and Texas.

KDHE spokeswoman Miranda Myrick said Friday that both state and federal guidelines for hospitals, clinics and other facilities are based on an assumption that they will “result in a higher level of care.”

“In developing these regulations, KDHE looked to resources that used established, industry-accepted standards of care in clinical settings that have been developed over many years,” she said in an email, adding that such standards are “grounded in evidence.”

Woody filed notices in federal court this week disclosing that the providers’ attorneys plan to question health department off icials and members of the attorney general’s staff in September.

Those to be interviewed include Joseph Kroll, the director of the KDHE bureau that drafted the regulations, and KDHE Secretary Robert Moser.

She also filed a notice that both the health department and attorney general’s office had received a list of questions and a demand to produce documents. Court filings show the providers’ attorneys want to question officials about the steps they took to research their regulations.

“It obviously goes to proving our case that it’s an undue burden,” Woody said.

Terrorists’ persistence shouldn’t be a surprise

WASHINGTON — So next time the Norwegians will arm more of their police.

Aum Shinrikyo. It poisoned the Tokyo subway system with sarin, a deadly nerve gas, in 1995, causing 13 deaths and an astounding 6,252 injuries.

Danzig’s report, drawn from interviews over the last three years with imprisoned members of the cult, is revelatory. It shows how extremists are driven toward ever-more toxic weapons. And it illustrates how lax police can be until disaster happens.

Though the Japanese police had evidence that Aum Shinrikyo was producing chemical weapons, they couldn’t prosecute because no Japanese law specifically banned manufac-

ture of poison gas!

The report makes some interesting contrarian points, too. There’s a selflimiting quality in these terrorist cults — an emphasis on secrecy and hierarchy that sometimes prevents them from using materials they can so easily obtain. They botch repeated attempts to make their weapons work.

But they are persistent: They keep coming back, until they get it right.

This finding surely fits al-Qaida, the masters of trial and error. And it applies to other groups, whose names we won’t know until they burst out in bloody headlines, as with Breivik and his vision of the Knights Templar.

The Aum Shinrikyo story centers on a bearded, nearly-blind Japanese cult leader who called himself Shoko Asahara. In the beginning, the group was a peaceful proponent of yoga and a purifying “original Buddhism,” but it soon took on a political mission. Asahara tortured his wife until she complied with his vision, and he began experimenting with botulism toxin in 1989 to kill a renegade member of the order.

A common strand with Asahara, the Norwegian Breivik and al-Qaida’s Osama Bin Laden is that they all embraced grandiose schemes for imposing their political-religious order of things. Asahara literally drew his inspiration from science fiction — imagining plasma ray guns that could

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for July 30, 1911: YEARS “Marshal Carter AGO yesterday made a IN 1911 trip of inspection through every alley on the west side following the instructions of Mayor Bishop that the town must be kept clean. Mr. Carter said this morning that he found the alleys to be in pretty good shape, but according to the strict interpretation of the ordinance there was hardly an alley on the west side that did not need a little cleaning up.

— David Ignatius is a columnist for Washington Post Writers Group.

The operating committee of the Kansas Union had decided to seek an YEARS application for a AGO city license to IN 1971 serve 3.2 beer at the Union, according to union director Frank Burge.

Olin Petefish, counsel for the committee, said that such sales were made possible by an attorney general's ruling that 3.2 beer is not an alcoholic beverage and is therefore exempt from the prohibition of the sale and consumption of alcoholic beverages on state property.

vaporize humans, and floating mirrors in space that could zap earthlings.

Aum Shinrikyo tried and failed repeatedly on its way to the successful 1995 subway attack. Its first big batch of nine tons of botulism toxin was so useless that when a cult member fell into the vat by accident, he was unharmed. A test effort to kill 2,000 mice failed. A plan to spray anthrax failed because of a faulty sprayer, as did an attempt to blow anthrax powder. The group tried to use VX nerve gas a half-dozen times in assassination attempts, and failed each time.

Yet they kept on coming, finally with the nerve gas sarin. The first attack was a 1994 attempt to kill judges opposing Aum Shinrikyo in a commercial case, but the nerve gas blew instead into an apartment complex, killing eight and injuring 200. The next year came the horrific Tokyo subway attack — all but advertised in advance and still unstopped.

Danzig and his co-authors make the essential point: In dealing with these extremist groups and cults, the world is playing Russian roulette: “Many chambers in the gun prove to be harmless, but some chambers are loaded.” Another bullet was fired last Friday, and we are surely clicking toward more. The surprise is that we’re still surprised.

Street sense To the editor: Does anyone at City Hall own, let alone wear, a thinking hat? Sixth Street, Ninth Street, 19th Street, both Kansas River bridges, Kasold (again, STILL!) and God only knows what other streets torn up the week prior to Aug. 1 lease rollover!

“Welcome to Lawrence. We hope your visit and especially commutes are pleasurable. Well, no, we’d never consider doing any street repair at night — especially on major thoroughfares. That would make it too easy on residents and visitors.”

Protect benefits To the editor: Right now, the president and Congress are considering a deal to pay the nation’s bills that could cut billions from Social Security and Medicare benefits for today’s seniors.

Some in Washington want the deal to include proposals that could raise Medicare premiums, co-pays and deductibles for seniors, shifting costs to seniors rather than lowering costs throughout the health care system.

Politicians are also considering including a proposal that could cut Social Security by $112 billion over 10 years by permanently reducing Social Security cost-of-living increases. This proposal is particularly upsetting to seniors who

have seen shortcomings in the current Social Security cost-of-living formula leave them struggling with no cost-of-living increase despite two years of steadily rising costs for fuel, food, prescription drugs and medical care.

Washington needs to reduce our nation’s growing debt, but it should crack down on wasteful spending and close tax loopholes, not cut the Medicare and Social Security benefits seniors worked for their entire lives.

Ernie Kutzley, AARP Kansas, Lawrence

Great show To the editor: It goes without saying that the Lawrence Arts Center puts on high quality theater productions, but the Summer Youth Theater’s presentation of “West Side Story” has proved once again that the LAC inspires kids to take their talents to a new, incredible level.

From the lead actors to the supporting cast, from the orchestra to the technicians, from the singing dancers to the dancing singers — this show was truly a joy to watch on opening night.

I encourage everyone to come in from the heat this weekend and spend a couple hours being transported to another place by our local theater talents. “When you’re a Jet, you’re a Jet all the way, from your first cigarette ‘til your last dyin’ day…”

Grateful grandma To the editor: I am a frequent traveler on the T, along with my grandchildren.

On Tuesday, four of the grandchildren (ages 2 to 9 years) and I took the late afternoon bus No. 9 westward from Clinton Parkway and Kasold Drive to McDonald’s on Wakarusa Drive. The driver politely dropped us off and we had an enjoyable two hours.

I had misread the timetable for the buses (they stop transporting at 8 p.m.) and headed, with the four grandchildren, across Sixth Street to wait for the returning 8 p.m. bus. The evening bus driver recognized my mistake as he saw us crossing the street and called his supervisor to advise him of our situation. By the time bus No. 9 had pulled to our stop, he informed us that his bus was out of service and his supervisor was coming to pick us up to return us to where my car was parked at Clinton Parkway and Kasold Drive.

We were overwhelmed with thankfulness. Before the supervisor had arrived, two people, at separate times, had come to ask if they could help me. Lawrence may be a big town, but small-town helpfulness is still alive and well.

This grandma, who will be much more careful to read bus schedules in the future, and her four grandchildren publicly send their thanks to the gracious bus driver of bus 9 and his supervisor.

Students serve $10,000 lemonade WICHITA (AP) — At $10,000 a glass, you would think a Wichita businessman was about to drink a vintage wine.

But George Holland plunked down the thousands of dollars Friday to drink a glass of lemonade from a stand run by elementary students.

Holland, owner of Holland Paving in Wichita, presented the check to students at College Hill Elementary School.

Their lemonade stand is raising money to buy school supplies for students in the Joplin school district, which lost four schools and had six others damaged in a May 22 tornado.

The Wichita Eagle reported that with Holland’s donation, the students have raised $13,300.

Former Jayhawks get shot in NFL

KANSAS FOOTBALL

In good condition

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

While last Monday’s announcement of the end of the NFL lockout marked a big day for the professional football players of the world, it also proved to be a huge moment for a few undrafted, former college players who have had to wait a lot longer than any before them to get their shot at living out their dreams.

After more than 120 days of negotiation and posturing, the lockout was lifted Monday afternoon. Tues- Harris day, the NFL’s 30 teams were allowed to return to business, which meant negotiating with player representatives, tracking free agents and scouting possible personnel moves.

Tuesday morning, cornerback Chris Harris flew to Thorson the Mile High city and signed a freeagent contract with the Denver Broncos. A little later that day, former KU offensive lineman Brad Thorson agreed to a deal with the Arizona Cardinals.

And Thursday, former Laptad defensive end Jake Laptad announced, via Twitter, that he was getting his crack with the Chicago Bears.

None of these players are guaranteed anything more than a shot from their chosen NFL franchises, but, according to a couple of pro scouts who spoke with the Journal-World last spring, Harris, Laptad and Thorson were the top three pro prospects on KU’s team last season.

It’s clear that, regardless of how slim the odds of them becoming big-time NFL players

THE KANSAS FOOTBALL TEAM SPRINTS during spring football practice on April 18 at the practice fields next to Memorial Stadium. KU coaches started timing the players’ sprints last winter.

Players in better shape with more intense workouts

By Jesse Newell jnewell@ljworld.com

Kansas tight end Tim Biere admits that his conditioning limited him during the 2010 season, when he played at around 260 pounds.

“This year I’ve lost about 10 pounds, and so I’m running a lot better,” Biere said. “I think it’ll help a ton this season, as far as the end of games.

“I knew I needed to drop some weight.”

Biere believes he isn’t the only Jayhawk that will be in better shape for the start of the 2011 season, as KU coaches have amped up the intensity during summer workouts in year two.

“I’ve seen people responding better and people taking accountability for what they do in the weight room and out on the football field a lot more,” Biere said.

“Just people wanting to get better, not people wanting to get through a workout.”

Biere admits he was surprised last summer on the first day of conditioning drills when coaches didn’t keep times during player sprints. According to Biere, KU’s previous strength and conditioning coach Chris Dawson “was

KANSAS DEFENSIVE END TOBEN OPURUM HITS THE SLED during practice on April 18 at the practice fields near Memorial Stadium. pretty crazy about that kind of stuff.”

The results were somewhat predictable. Biere said he saw teammates setting a slow pace, then taking it easy at the end of runs.

That’s changed this year, as coaches began timing sprints last winter. Now, on 110-yard dashes, skill players have 14 seconds to fin-

ish, big skill players (linebackers and tight ends) have 15 seconds and linemen have around 19 seconds.

Biere said guys are making their times, too.

“This year everybody’s running hard,” Biere said. “It’s been a completely different team this offseason than it was last year.”

KU linebacker Steven Johnson

has noticed one focus in workouts has been working on explosiveness.

In addition to 110-yard dashes, the players also have been grinding through 300s — a drill where each player runs around the perimeter of the football field.

The team runs seven or eight consecutively with only a 30-second break between each. Once again, players are required to complete the run in a certain time.

Johnson believes the additional conditioning this summer will help.

“On the defensive side of the ball, I know we’re just going to be able to get from sideline to sideline really easy,” Johnson said. “I don’t feel that many Big 12 teams are going to be able to get away from us this year.

We’re going to be able to run people down and stop drives.”

Players also are noticing a difference in the weight room.

KU center Jeremiah Hatch said last year’s situation was similar to being dropped off at a babysitter’s for the first time — players were testing limits to figure out the new staff’s boundaries.

Royals heat up

KU pursuing pair of Dallas teammates

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

SHAWNEE — Urban DFW Elite graduate Darrell Arthur has gotten to know some of the current players on coach Jazzy Hartwell’s Dallas/Fort Worthbased AAU basketball team.

“He is a great player and a great guy,” Urban Elite power forward Karviar Shepherd said of the Memphis Grizzlies’ power forward, who helped Kansas University win a national championship in 2008.

It’s way too early in the recruiting process to know whether Shepherd, a 6-foot-9, 215-pound junior-to-be from DeSoto (Texas) High, and 6-7, 200-pound DeSoto/DFW Elite teammate Jordan Mickey will follow in Arthur’s footsteps at KU. What is known is the two have already received scholar-

ship offers from KU coach Bill Self.

The two, who are playing at this week’s KC Prep Invitational at Mid-America Sports Complex West, visited KU’s campus unofficially in June.

“It was a good experience,” Shepherd said of KU. “We got to play against their players. They kept the intensity up against us.

They didn’t let us go easy,” added Shepherd, who has a current list of KU, Texas, Texas A&M, Oklahoma, Florida State and others.

Mickey, who is currently being pursued by those exact same schools, plus Providence and others, said of his KU visit: “We thought it was a great program ... great coaches, great facility, just a great place to be. I am still open minded (about adding schools to list).”

KANSAS CITY ROYALS’ BILLY BUTLER, LEFT, IS HELD BACK by Cleveland Indians catcher Lou Marson after Indians starting pitcher Carlos Carrasco threw a high inside pitch to Butler in the fourth inning. Carrasco was ejected on Please see RECRUITING, page 3B Friday in Cleveland.

CLEVELAND (AP) — Melky Cabrera and the Kansas City Royals got off to a fast start, then kept piling on after Carlos Carrasco drew their ire with a dangerous pitch.

Cabrera hit a grand slam, Jeff Francis pitched eight sharp innings and the Royals pounded the Cleveland Indians, 12-0, on Friday night in a testy game between regular AL Central foes.

Billy Butler went deep twice and Alex Gordon also connected for Kansas City, which has won seven of 10. Butler hit a two-run shot in the first and a solo drive in the eighth, giving him five long balls in a four-game homer streak.

“We’re swinging the bats pretty good right now,” Royals manager Ned Yost said. “Francis threw the ball great.”

Butler came to the plate right after Cabrera’s grand slam in the fourth, and Cleveland starter Carlos Carrasco promptly threw

one at his head on the first pitch.

Players from both dugouts and bullpens came on the field, and Carrasco was ejected.

“That’s not professional,” Butler said. “I understand the game.

You don’t go above the shoulders. I knew there was the possibility that I would get hit, but that’s too high. You’re never supposed to throw at somebody’s head.”

Several Royals players gestured and yelled at Carrasco as he was walking to Cleveland’s dugout. Carrasco shouted back before leaving the field.

Right fielder Jeff Francoeur, who was hit in the face while playing in the minors, was the most demonstrative Royals player.

“I was yelling to hit him in the leg or hit him in the side,” Francoeur said. “You don’t throw at someone’s head. You could really hurt somebody. That’s just Please see ROYALS, page 3B

Eagles land cornerback Asomugha BETHLEHEM, PA. (AP) — Philadelphia has become quite the attractive free-agent destination of late.

On Friday, Nnamdi Asomugha and the Eagles joined in on the party.

One day after acquiring Pro Bowl cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie from the Cardinals, the Eagles stunned the NFL world, and signed another Pro Bowl cornerback, Asomugha, to a five-year contract.

Very quietly, while other teams made headlines in their pursuit of Asomugha, Eagles general manag-

er Howie Roseman and president Joe Banner made a pitch to him that he simply could not refuse.

Asomugha’s deal will pay him $60 million over the life of it, with $25 million guaranteed.

“Howie and Joe worked their Asomugha tail off and put together this phenomenal plan,” Philadelphia coach Andy Reid said. “They came out of the gates

By Sam Farmer Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — Cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha ... intercepted!

Running back DeAngelo Williams ... brought down deep in his own territory!

Defensive end Ray Edwards ... here comes the sack dance — with two overstuffed bags of cash!

The NFL stormed back into the headlines this week for the right reasons. After nearly five months of bitter arguing with players, and the ever-looming threat of the season being canceled, the country’s most popular sports league stumbled onto something that just works.

Here’s a vote for reducing the freeagency period to a wild few days when players are flying around everywhere.

Asomugha, formerly of the Oakland Raiders, was the prize of this free-agent class. It was widely reported Friday that there were two teams in the running for his services: the Dallas Cowboys and New York Jets. Up pop the Philadelphia Eagles and pick him off, capping a 24 hours in which they made another big splash by trading quarterback Kevin Kolb to Arizona for cornerback Dominique RodgersCromartie and a second-round pick.

Carolina’s Williams, the best running back in free agency, decided to stay with his old team, a trend that was repeated throughout the league. Pittsburgh held on to cornerback Ike Taylor. The Jets kept their best receiver, Santonio Holmes.

Atlanta right tackle Tyson Clabo will keep protecting the front side of Matt Ryan.

Those same Falcons made former Minnesota defensive end Edwards a six-million-dollar man, signing him to a deal reportedly worth $30 million over five years, an early example of how the new collective bargaining agreement encourages teams to spread money among veterans rather than spending it all on rookies.

That’s another great aspect of this new, accidental week of excitement: the signing of rookies has been greeted with minimal fanfare, as it should be. Yes, a few of them have major impacts in their first season, but most get far too much attention relative to their first-year footprint on a franchise.

When reports spread Friday afternoon that No. 1 pick Cam Newton had reached an agreement with the Panthers, hardly anyone lifted their heads to notice. That wasn’t a knock on Newton, but there was too much going on with players who have already accomplished something in the pros.

What’s more, the money the Panthers will pay Newton is much more in line with what the top rookie should make.

The deal has been widely reported as four years, $22 million. A year ago, St. Louis quarterback Sam Bradford signed the largest contract ever for a rookie — six years, $78 million with $50 million in guarantees.

In less than a week, we’ve gone from talk of locked-out players to lock-down corners, from gavels to sledgehammers, from legal eagles to the ones that landed Asomugha.

Titans, will back up Eagles starter Michael Vick.

Asomugha, considered the top free agent on the market, spent his f irst eight seasons with the Raiders. He had a career-high eight interceptions in 2006, went to the Pro Bowl after the 2008, 2009 and 2010 seasons and was named a first-team all-pro in 2008 and 2010.

Even though he has just three interceptions in the last three years, Asomugha is considered one of the top cover cornerbacks in the NFL.

NFL COMMENTARY

Less time for signings means more excitement

like wild men and attacked the issue. Neither one of them has had much sleep. But they’ve rewarded our football team and the city of Philadelphia with some great players.”

Lost in the Asomugha shuffle, was the fact that the Eagles also formally announced a one-year deal for quarterback Vince Young, a 2006 first-round pick of Tennessee. Young, who went 30-2 as a starter at Texas and led the Longhorns to a national championship in his final game there only to have an up-and-down tenure with the

Phillies trade for outfielder Pence PHILADELPHIA — Hunter Pence is adding his big bat to a pennant race.

Philadelphia is counting on its latest All-Star acquisition from Houston to do what Brad Lidge and Roy Oswalt did before him — help take the team with the best record in baseball deep into the postseason.

The Phillies made another deadline splash Friday night, acquiring Pence from the Astros for a package of highly-rated prospects.

“He’s a guy that I think our fans will take to very well,” Phillies general manager Ruben Amaro Jr. said.

NFL Bears agree with WR Williams BOURBONNAIS, ILL. — Quarterback Jay Cutler has a new target and Roy Williams has a chance to redeem himself. The former Pro Bowl receiver will try to re-energize his career in a system he knows well after signing a oneyear deal with Chicago on Friday.

Panthers sign No. 1 pick Newton SPARTANBURG, S.C. — No. 1 draft pick Cam Newton has signed with the Carolina Panthers and has arrived at training camp.

The team announced Friday evening that he had signed a deal and was attending team meetings. The Panthers also said on Twitter that the quarterback “had officially signed on the dotted line.”

Bus Cook, Newton’s agent, told the The Associated Press via a text message Friday night that the deal was for four years and “$22 million-plus.”

Bills sign draft choice Dareus PITTSFORD, N.Y. — Marcell Dareus can finally put his offseason lawn-mowing job behind him now that the rookie first-round draft pick has signed his contract with the Buffalo Bills.

The hulking defensive lineman, selected third overall out of Alabama, signed a fouryear, $20.4 million contract and arrived at training camp in time for the team’s first conditioning session at training camp in suburban Rochester on Friday.

earlier this month in which he used an antigay slur when talking about commissioner Roger Goodell and criticized teammates for their play in Pittsburgh’s Super Bowl loss to Green Bay.

Jackson signs franchise tag SAN DIEGO — Vincent Jackson, who missed training camp and most of last season in a salary dispute with San Diego, signed a franchise tag with the Chargers on Friday worth nearly $11 million.

The wide receiver was coming off a Pro Bowl season in 2009 when he and the Chargers became embroiled in a salary dispute.

QB Manning to miss practice time INDIANAPOLIS — The pain in Peyton Manning’s neck will keep him off the practice field early next week.

Indianapolis still isn’t sure how long it will take to get the four-time MVP back.

Colts coach Jim Caldwell said Friday that the Colts will be cautious with their franchise quarterback, who had neck surgery in May, and will not push him too hard. Camp opens Monday at Anderson University.

Steelers’ LB Harrison apologizes LATROBE, PA. — James Harrison is an emotional guy. Always has been. The Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker plays with an intensity few in the NFL can match.

Yet the four-time Pro Bowler knows that fury has its limits, and Friday he admitted he blew right past them in a magazine article

The person told The Associated Press Friday that Johnson will not report to the Titans.

Johnson, a Florida native, said in 2010 he wanted a new deal with $30 million guaranteed. The Titans revised his contract by pushing some money from the final year into 2010 to convince the running back to report.

Chiefs sign first-round pick ST. JOSEPH, MO. (AP) — The Kansas City Chiefs signed first-round pick Jonathan Baldwin on Friday morning, then capped a busy day by agreeing to terms with eight unrestricted free agents, including Arizona wide receiver Steve Breaston and their own veteran center Casey Wiegmann.

Baldwin, the 26th pick overall in the 2011 draft, played 39 games at Pittsburgh and caught 128 passes for 2,337 yards and 16 touchdowns. As a senior, the 6-foot4 Baldwin had 822 yards receiving and five TDs. Their biggest free agent acquisition to date is Breaston, who had his best years when Chiefs coach Todd Haley was his offensive coordinator at Arizona. In 60 regular-season games with the Cardinals he had 187 recep-

tions for 2,528 yards with seven touchdowns. He also had 113 punt returns for 885 yards and one TD. The other players signed were all Chiefs last season: running back Jackie Battle, wide receiver Terrance Copper, cornerback Travis Daniels, safety Jon McGraw, tackle Ryan O’Callaghan and tight end Leonard Pope. The Chiefs also announced that fullback Mike Cox had signed his restricted free agent tender and defensive back Reshard Langford signed his exclusive rights free agent tender.

Baldwin signed a four-year deal with the option for a fifth.

He, Breaston and Pro Bowl selection Dwayne Bowe could give quarterback Matt Cassel an array of wide receiver targets.

Wiegmann is back for a

16th year in the NFL. Going back to 2001, he has started 159 consecutive games at center and taken 10,141 consecutive snaps. That is believed to be an NFL record, but the league does not keep such statistics.

McGraw is a team leader, which becomes important with the retirement of linebacker Mike Vrabel and the release of five-time Pro Bowl guard Brian Waters. He has played in 43 games with the Chiefs.

The team also put secondyear tight end Tony Moeaki on the physically unable to perform list.

Coach Todd Haley declined to say Friday what Moeaki’s problem was. He seemed fine when speaking briefly with the media as players moved into their training camp dorm room on Thursday.

says to do, and just do it. Or I can come in and compete with the person across from me and do it. It’s a big difference.”

Johnson has seen times when the receivers and defensive backs have had battles back and forth, each unit trying to out-lift the other.

“That’s what’s good, when you get lost in the hard work you’re doing,” Johnson said.

“That’s when you know you’re actually getting better.”

Johnson said that though KU had some vocal leaders last year, the team didn’t always have guys out there backing up their words.

“I know this year, we have people out there doing it,” Johnson said. “Not talking as

much, but out there really putting the work in and trying to get better.”

This year, Johnson said, everyone seems more focused.

“The strength and conditioning coaches, they might have been a little light on us at first, because they were feeling their way,” Johnson said.

“Everybody was feeling their way last year, coaches and everything, just trying to learn about KU. “This year, we’ve got a year under our belts, so it’s like, ‘All right, now I can turn it up.

Now I can yell at you a little bit more. Now I can get on your butt when you don’t do something right.’”

The reason so many teams sign so many free agents is because they never know when they’ll find that diamond-in-the-rough who’s capable of helping out, be it on offense, defense or special teams. Last year, former KU defensive back Justin Thornton was a surprise free-agent signing of the Pittsburgh Steelers and he made it all the way to the team’s final cut, one cut away from being a part of a team that reached the Super Bowl.

In order to stick, Harris, Laptad and Thorson will have to survive a series of cuts and earn a spot on their squad’s active roster or practice squad. Each player reported to his respective training

camp earlier this week and all three already have participated in workouts with their new teams.

In all, there are 11 former Jayhawks currently participating in NFL training camps.

After being allowed to bring in as many fresh faces as they like during the opening weeks of camp, teams are required to trim their active rosters to 75 players by the end of August and again to 53

by Sept. 4.

A couple of other former Jayhawks are still hoping to get scooped up by a team in the next few days. Included among them are: punter Alonso Rojas and wide receiver Johnathan Wilson.

ects as a power forward or center in college, said he’s ready for the long recruiting process to pick up steam.

“It’s going to be fun. This is all fun,” he said of his summertime experiences. He had five points and several rebounds in the first-round victory. “We have great chemistry on our team. Nobody is selfish. We play well together.”

Mickey is ranked No. 75 and Shepherd No. 79 in Rivals.com’s Class of 2013.

This, that: Future KU player Conner Frankamp scored 19 points in Kansas City Pump N Run’s 61-54 win over St. Louis Gateway on Friday. The 6-foot1 guard from Wichita North hit 10 free throws. KU coach Bill Self attended the game. ... Mitch McGary, a 6-10 center from Brewster Academy in Wolfeboro, N.H., scored 19 points in SYF’s 72-53 win over Wedman Pumas. Self attended as did Duke’s Mike Krzyzewski.

because we made it easier,” Hatch said. “We weren’t competing. Doing just enough to get by.”

Hatch said now he sees players wanting to lift more than the guy across from them. If a player sees someone in his position group lifting 300 pounds, then he pushes himself to try to lift 305.

“There’s a difference between doing your work and doing your work,” Hatch said.

“I can come in there and lift a couple of weights, do everything that the card or the coach

may be, these guys are thrilled to get their shot and believe that all the hard work and preparation will pay off.

“First practice today,” Harris said on Thursday. “Finally here.”

The players weren’t the only ones excited about the recent developments.

“We signed 17 college free agents this a.m.,” Tweeted Hall of Fame quarterback, John Elway, the Broncos’ executive vice president of football operations. “It’s a talented class we feel great about — will add depth and competition.”

Mickey, who had 10 points and 10 rebounds in DFW Elite’s first-round victory over MBA Elite, is known as a great shot blocker.

“I need to work more on guard skills and shooting. I probably won’t be a post in college,” he said.

wrong. That’s why I like the National League because that stuff doesn’t happen. You have to take a bat up there.”

Indians manager Manny Acta also was unhappy with Carrasco.

“We don’t condone throwing at people’s heads,” Acta said. “He was talked to by (pitching coach Tim Belcher).

That’s a dangerous situation.”

Carrasco admitted he was upset that Cabrera stood at home plate and admired his 13th homer, but denied the pitch to Butler was intentional.

“I didn’t throw at anybody, the baseball just ran away,” he Carrasco was replaced by said. “I know it looked bad Chad Durbin, who threw a after a home run, but there is high-and-inside pitch to nothing I can do right there.” Cabrera with the bases loaded

in the fifth. Cabrera hit the dirt and glared at Durbin, but didn’t make a move toward the mound.

Francis (4-11) won for the first time since June 10. He allowed four hits, struck out six and walked one.

“It was the offense’s night, for sure” Francis said. “It’s a different game when you get a big lead in the fourth. They didn’t get good wood on the mistakes I did make.”

The Indians, who were nohit by Angels right-hander Ervin Santana on Thursday, have lost seven of eight, managing just 13 runs during the slide. Right fielder Kosuke Fukudome, acquired from the Chicago Cubs on Thursday, went 0-for-4 in his Indians debut.

Carrasco (8-9) lost his fifth straight start and has allowed seven home runs in his losing streak.

‘What’s your favorite book of the Bible?’

————

If I had to just pick one, First Corinthians would be a good choice The Rev. Matt Sturtevant, First Baptist Church of Lawrence, 1330 Kasold Drive: My favorite book of the Bible? Come on! I’m a Baptist preacher. It’s like the potato chips — I can’t pick just one!

There are so many lifechanging options. The blunt honesty of the stories of the Pentateuch. The bedrock theology of the Gospels. The missional power of Acts.

I guess if I were pinned down for an answer, I would have to pick First Corinthians. This book combines all of the above: honest stories of the community of faith and their real-life problems, the service and sacrif ice of Christ, and the power of the Holy Spirit to equip us beyond what we can do alone.

Paul’s relationships with

the Corinthians were deep and abiding, so the honesty with which he writes this letter to his friends is refreshing.

He explains how to handle arguments between Sturtevant believers, how God created each of them with special gifts, and how to assure that community is welcoming and equitable for all.

This is Paul at his greatest — caring but firm, practical but spiritual, open to the leading of the Holy Spirit but expectant of the believer’s responsibility. Every chapter is a new pearl of wisdom —

from the controversy of Chapter 10 about whether or not believers should eat meat sacrificed to idols (it’s really more about legalism and sharing your faith than menu options) to the beautiful poetry of chapter 13 (the “love passage” that you probably heard at the last wedding you attended).

First Corinthians is relevant because it was relevant.

It proves that the faith is practical, dynamic and alive, even in the midst of the ambiguities of life. The practical words of a tentmaker from 2,000 years ago teach us how to be community, live in faith, and worship Christ. If I had to just pick one, it would be a good choice.

In broken, humiliating moments the Book of Job sings to me The Rev. Glenn Fletcher, pastor of student ministries, Christ Community Church, 1100 Kasold Drive: My answer to this question may be disturbing for some, and yet for others it may be just the ray of hope they need.

The world we live in today seems full of disappointment and troubling news ... scandals and break-ups, staggering unemployment, nations on brink of financial collapse, wars and fighting, disasters and all sorts of horrible diseases.

Day in and day out, we seem to be bombarded by even more bad news. We become overwhelmed and numb, powerless and helpless. We watch what seems all hope fade into the blackened depressive abyss to be con-

L AWRENCE J OURNAL -WORLD

sumed by it. And for those hit the hardest in these times, the whole world seems to say, “You failure! Why don’t you just give up?”

It is in those broken, crushed and humiliating moments that the Book of Job sings to me.

See, Job goes from having it all together: good health, unmatched Fletcher fame and fortune, a beautiful wife and loving family, to losing everything in a single day. Hour by hour more and more bad news befalls Job. He loses all his possessions, all his investments came crash-

ing down, his kids are killed in a gruesome accident, and his body is ravaged with a horrid disease. His friends can’t understand what he’s going through and his own wife’s advice was for him to “curse God and die.”

Where is the hope? Where is the justice? What did Job do to deserve such misery?

Nothing.

But in the midst of all the muck and mire, it was there that the Creator God demonstrated his awesome might, his unfailing love, his great mercy and unerring justice for Job. And I am comforted knowing that God will do the same for me in my darkest moments.

Marriage falters over ‘flippant comment’ Annie’s Mailbox

many people believe that such “flippant comments” hold hidden truths (see: Freud). At this point, there may be no way to convince Amy that you don’t harbor salacious thoughts about Zoe. Your best bet is to enlist the help of Amy’s parents.

Apologize to them. Admit you were an obtuse idiot. Cry. Beg them to get Amy to consider counseling. We hope it works.

You sound truly remorseful.

Dear Annie: My husband is anniesmailbox@comcast.net going to be evaluated for a lung ror, she packed her bags and transplant next month, but he is having second thoughts. I said our marriage was over.

I figured I’d give her time to asked the doctor if he could calm down, but things went put my husband in touch with south from there. Amy told me she couldn’t be married to a man who was so insensitive, and after that, she refused to see me or speak to me. The next thing I know, I’m being served with divorce papers.

I don’t know what to do. Her family has swooped in to shield her from me, so I can’t even get close enough to suggest counseling. Everyone is angry with me, and I’m angry with myself and my big, stupid mouth. Even though I know I was wrong, I can’t believe a wonderful marriage can be over just because of a flippant comment that I didn’t mean. Is there any hope for us? — Suffering Soon-to-Be Ex Dear Suffering: Aside from your incredible disregard for your wife’s major sore spot,

Whale tale runs off course

Take a serious actor (Danny Glover) and star him in an adaptation of a serious book (“Moby Dick”) made for Syfy’s cheesy Saturday night movie franchise and you’ve got a serious mess on your hands. It’s called “Age of the Dragons” (8 p.m.).

Glover is Ahab, a man obsessed with the white dragon that killed his sister and broiled much of his body. As in the book, Ishmael (Corey Sevier) narrates. But in this case, the drifter dragon-slayer sounds like a Keanu Reeves impersonator.

But even if Orson Welles were alive and narrating, Herman Melville’s exalted prose would seem out of place amid the cheap sets and preposterous situations.

For starters, Ahab doesn’t chase dragons on the vast eternity of the sea, but in some kind of covered-wagon land tank. As a result, most of “Dragons” takes place in the dank and claustrophobic hold of the wooden vehicle. This allows Ishmael and the other lusty dragon-slayers to make knowing glances at Ahab’s fetching daughter, played by Sofia Pernas with all the gusto of a petulant supermodel on her day off. But she has every right to seem burdened. Except for a brief flashback of Ahab’s martyred sister and some fleshy beer wenches at the dragon slayers’ saloon, she’s the only female character in this very dull movie. ● A divorced mom (Lea Thompson) packs the brood for an educational vacation to Scotland. Little does she know that a careless booking agent has assigned the very same cabin to a divorced dad (Steven Brand) with the same last name. Gosh, what could happen?

Dear Annie: My wife, “Amy,” is 26. She is a wonderful, pretty girl, and I love her to pieces. We’ve been married two years. Her married sister, “Zoe,” is a year older and supermodel gorgeous, but I have never been even remotely attracted to her.

A few months back, we had a big family party to watch the royal wedding. Somewhere along the way, a lighthearted discussion broke out among the guys as to who was more attractive — the bride or her sister. That’s when I made the biggest mistake of my life. I joked that my brother-in-law was lucky he nabbed Zoe first, or I would have snatched her up. I don’t know why I said it.

I didn’t even mean it.

Zoe and my mother-in-law shot daggers at me, and my wife was quiet for the rest of the evening. I decided I would apologize as soon as we got home, but I never had the chance. As soon as we walked in the door, Amy went totally ballistic. She screamed and cried about how I humiliated her in front of everyone, and that she’d felt second-best to Zoe her entire life. I knew she was hurt, but no matter what I said or how hard I apologized, she refused to accept that it was a joke.

Somalia: More aid needed; troops gain ground

By Jason Straziuso Associated Press Writer

MOGADISHU , S OMALIA — African Union and Somali forces traded barrages of fire at a new front line in Mogadishu on Friday, as AU forces gained new territory.

The country’s president appealed for more international aid, saying the government can’t feed all the overwhelming number of Somalis suffering from famine.

The African Union military force fears that alShabab militants may try to attack the camps that now house tens of thousands of famine refugees in the Somali capital, disrupting the distribution of food aid. A new offensive to push the militant front line farther back from the camps began Thursday.

A battlefield commander, Col. Paul Lokech, told The Associated Press on a visit near the front line Friday that a Pakistani fighter was commanding the al-Shabab troops battling his forces nearby, and that the militants were “active.” Al-Shabab counts hundreds of foreign fighters among its ranks.

Speaking of the Pakistani, Lokech said: “Don’t worry, I’ll get him.”

Mortar fire and guns rang out nearby, as the militants put up more resistance than the AU forces had expected.

“They’re worried about the ground they’ve lost,” Lokech said.

The African Union and Somali troops have been fighting a concerted offensive against al-Shabab all year and have gained a large swath of new territory in Mogadishu. But the fight took on a new importance in recent days as tens of thousands of famine refugees began squatting in squalid, hunger-filled refugee camps here.

President Sheik Sharif Sheik Ahmed said Friday that

Obama: Africa needs world to respond

ISMAIL HAJI, 3, A MALNOURISHED CHILD, sits in Banadir hospital Friday in Mogadishu after fleeing from southern Somalia. The U.N. says a second plane has landed in famine-hit Somalia carrying more than 20 tons of nutritional supplements urgently needed to treat malnourished children. The World Food Program said Friday that with the second delivery it has airlifted nearly 31 tons of ready-to-use food into Mogadishu so far.

HOW TO HELP: A compilation of aid groups collecting aid for eastern Africa can be found at interaction.org/crisis-list/interaction-members-respond-drought-crisis-horn-africa his government has created several refugee camps, but that his country needs urgent support because it can’t support the level of aid that is needed. Ahmed also said the military has weakened alShabab, and that “soon they will be defeated.”

The government spokesman went even further, saying the famine response from aid agencies “is too slow” and that the crisis is even more severe than the U.N. has said.

He noted that diseases are spreading through the camps, including measles.

“The current famine situation in Somalia actually demands urgency, not only

assessments and far-off responses, because many Somali children are dying in the county on a daily basis for lack of help,” said Abdirahman Omar Osman. “We are asking the international community to increase their efforts and help these people facing misery. We believe the famine is bigger than the U.N. said.”

The drought and the famine it’s caused in Somalia have affected more than 11 million people, including 2.2 million Somalis who live in al-Shabab controlled territory in south-central Somalia where aid groups can’t deliver food. Thousands are

Somali tells horrors of fleeing famine

By Malkhadir M. Muhumed Associated Press Writer

DADAAB, KENYA — When alQaida-linked militants learned that Ahmedhashim Mawlid Abdi and his family were planning to flee Somalia’s famine, they threw the 40-year-old father of seven in jail for two days.

Over the next 17 days, as they made their escape, a gang of gunmen robbed them of the little food they had, Abdi’s pregnant wife was raped in front Abdi of him, and his 7-year-old son died of starvation and disease. They were even attacked by a lion.

When they finally made it to the Dagahaley refugee camp in neighboring Kenya, their struggles were far from over.

Food rations in the overcrowded camp are “just enough to survive on,” Abdi said. And the future is uncertain.

As Somalia’s famine unfolds in the middle of a war zone, some 2.2 million people are in peril in an area controlled by the al-Qaida-linked al-Shabab that is inaccessible to aid groups.

In an extended interview conducted in Somali with The Associated Press, Abdi describes the drought-ravaged region he and his family escaped and the plight facing him and tens of thousands of other refugees in camps in Kenya and Ethiopia.

Q: A:

What your life was like in Somalia?

We were nomads and lived off our sheep and goats and cows.

During the rainy seasons we drank their milk, and during the dry seasons we sold some of them and used the money to buy food, milk and sugar from the local market. We were also farmers.

Conditions have changed.

Several seasons passed without enough rain. It is God’s act, not human’s. The current drought in Somalia has affected us in every possible way. It affected our animals and farms and our lives. The ongo-

ing conflict in our country has also added to our problems.

When two elephants fight, it’s the grass that suffers.

Q: What did you do after you lost all your animals and the rains still did not come?

A: We fled to the nearest town, Afmadow. We have a Somali saying that goes: A town has many ways to give you a new lease on life. But Afmadow was in a completely different situation when we arrived. It was in the hands of al-Shabab. The militants harassed anyone they believed was opposed to them. I did odd jobs, like fetching firewood from the bush and building houses.

But when the going got tough, I decided to flee with six children. I left two more children — a 4-year-old girl and a 20year-old — with relatives.

Q: Did al-Shabab prevent you from fleeing the country?

A:Yes. We sneaked out in the middle of the night and headed to an area far away from our actual direction so the militants couldn’t trace us. They put me in jail for 48 hours after they suspected me of leaving the town to head to Kenya.

Their logic is: Kenya is a Christian country and if you go there, you’re a Christian. I was released after local elders intervened. They kicked and slapped me on the face.

They even dragged me like a corpse. They said to me: ‘You are an apostate,’ a word that angered me very much.

Q: Tell me about the perils you faced.

A: We faced hunger, thirst, danger and exhaustion. It took us 17 days to arrive here (at Dagahaley refugee camp).

One night a lion almost ate me before I scared it away with my flashlight. Along the way, I carried my 5-year-old daughter on my back and 10 kilograms of rice. My wife also carried a 2-year-old daughter on her back. She was four months pregnant. Luckily, we found relatives on the way and they relieved us of the goods by allowing us to offload them on the donkey-pulled cart.

Q: What was the worst thing that happened?

A: The worst experience

we faced was when gunmen ambushed. The gang robbed us of the little food we had with us and raped our women in front of us as if they wanted us to witness their horrors.

The gang was made up of 15 gunmen and we were five families. They raped all the five women. While some men raped the women, others kept watch over them. That ordeal was the worst I have ever faced in my life. I once thought of looking for ways to get a gun to take revenge.

Only three days after that I lost my 7-year-old boy to hunger, exhaustion and disease. He came down with a severe fever and cold but got no treatment. He died at night as we rested. His mother cried a lot, but I accepted God’s will. I didn’t cry.

Q: How do you see your life as a refugee here?

A: The refugee life is not easy. What I found here is different from what I was thinking of before I came here. I thought a refugee’s life in Kenya was like a paradise. I thought that there will be plenty of food. But the rations we receive are just an amount on which we can survive. Not a satisfactory one, but in fact better than the destitution in Somalia.

Q: How do you see your future now?

A: I have high hopes that things will improve. No condition is permanent. I believe in God and pray that he improves my life. I’m hopeful that my children will also get a proper education and help me in the future.

Q: Are you thinking of returning to Somalia?

A: Yes, if — and only if — it becomes safe. I will return to Somalia only if a full peace dominates there. It is my country and the country of my father and grandfathers.

But if it remains as it is now, I will go to any other place where I can find peace.

Q: What is your advice to other Somalis still in the country?

A: I say to them: Believe in God and pray a lot to save you from the problems you’re currently facing. No place is better than your home country.

crammed into squalid refugee camps in the capital.

Though the masses arrived in hopes of finding food, many are not yet being fed, leading to an untold number of deaths in the camps.

A second U.N. plane landed in Mogadishu on Friday with more than 20 tons of nutritional supplements on board. A Kuwait Air Force transport plane also landed in the capital and offloaded sacks of food.

The World Food Program said with its second delivery Friday it has airlifted nearly 31 tons of ready-to-use food into Mogadishu. A WFP plane with 10 tons of peanut butter land-

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama says that the famine developing in eastern Africa needs an international response and that African nations must help figure out how to keep tens of thousands of people from starving.

Obama met at the White House on Friday with the presidents of four African countries: Guinea, Benin, Niger and Ivory Coast.

Addressing reporters afterward, he said the looming humanitarian crisis hasn’t gotten the attention from the U.S. that it deserves.

A drought and the famine it’s caused in Somalia have affected more than 11 million people, including 2.2 million Somalis who live in a militant-controlled area where aid groups can’t deliver food.

The U.N. and the World Food Program delivered more than 50 tons of ready-to-use food and nutritional supplements to the capital of Mogadishu on Friday. ed Wednesday in Mogadishu, the first of several planned airlifts in coming weeks.

WFP says it is supplying a hot meal to 85,000 people daily at 20 feeding centers in Mogadishu, but many refugees can’t find the feeding sites or don’t know about them.

“Our feeding centers continue to operate in spite of the difficult security situation and WFP is moving stocks out of our warehouse in Mogadishu to feed growing numbers of internally displaced Somalis who have fled the famine zone to the capital,” the U.N. agency said Friday.

Judge: Time to unseal Nixon’s Watergate testimony WASHINGTON (AP) — Thirtysix years after Richard Nixon testified to a grand jury about the Watergate break-in that drove him from office, a federal judge on Friday ordered the secret transcript made public.

But the 297 pages of testimony won’t be available immediately because the government gets time to decide whether to appeal.

The Obama administration opposed the transcript’s release, chiefly to protect the privacy of people discussed during the ex-president’s testimony who are still alive.

Nevertheless, U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth agreed with historians who sued for release of the documents that the historical significance outweighs arguments for secrecy, because the investigations are long over and Nixon has been dead 17 years.

Nixon was interviewed behind closed doors near his California home for 11 hours over two days in June 1975, 10 months after resigning the presidency. Two grand jurors were flown in and the transcript was read to the rest of the panel sitting back in Washington. It was the first time a former U.S. president testified before a grand jury — Bill Clinton became the first sitting president to do so during the Monica Lewinsky investigation.

At the time of his testimony, Nixon could not be prosecuted for conduct related to Watergate because he had been pardoned by President Gerald Ford. Ten days after Nixon testified, the grand jury was dismissed without making any indictments based on what he told them.

BUSINESS AT A GLANCE

Notable ● President Barack Obama and automakers ushered in the largest cut in fuel consumption since the 1970s on Friday with a deal that will save drivers money at the pump and dramatically cut heat-trapping gases coming from tailpipes.

The agreement pledges to double overall fuel economy to 54.5 mpg by 2025, bringing even greater under-the-hood changes to the nation’s automobiles starting in model year 2017. Cars and trucks on the road today average 27 mpg.

“This agreement on fuel standards represents the single most important step we have taken as a nation to reduce our dependence on foreign oil,” Obama said, sharing the stage with top executives of 11 major automakers and a top automobile workers union official, before a backdrop of some of the most cutting-edge cars and pickup trucks on the road.

Recession risks up amid slow growth, debt standoff

By Paul Wiseman and Christopher S. Rugaber Associated Press Writers

WASHINGTON — The economy is at risk of slipping into another recession.

It nearly stalled in the first six months of the year, the government reported Friday. Economic growth was feeble in the second quarter and practically non-existent in the first.

The new picture of an economy far weaker than most analysts had expected suddenly made a second recession a more serious threat — and the threat will rise if Congress can’t reach a deal to raise the government’s debt limit.

“The only question now is, how much weaker could things get?” says Nariman Behravesh, chief economist at IHS Global Insight.

In April, May and June, the economy grew at a 1.3 percent annual rate, below expectations. And the government changed its growth figure for January, February and March to 0.4 percent, far below the previous estimate of 1.9 percent.

Combined, the first half of the year amounts to the worst six-month performance since the Great Recession officially ended in June 2009.

Over the past year, the gross domestic product — the total output of goods and services in the United States, and the broadest measure of the economy’s health — recorded actual growth of 1.6 percent.

Since 1950, year-to-year growth has dipped below 2 percent 12 times. Ten of those times, the economy was already in recession or soon

fell into one, says Mark Vitner, senior economist at Wells Fargo Securities.

Normal economic growth is closer to 3 percent.

High gasoline prices leave people with less money to spend on other goods and services. And not all spending on gas contributes to the U.S. economy because some of the money goes to oil-producing countries. GDP figures are also inflation-adjusted, so spending $1 more for a gallon doesn’t mean $1 of additional help to the economy.

Manufacturing disruptions from the Japan earthquake, cuts in state and local government and tighter household budgets have weighed down the economy, too.

Add to those problems the uncertainty fanned by the political stalemate in Washington, with Republicans refusing to raise the federal government’s $14.3 trillion borrowing limit unless Democrats agree to deep federal spending cuts on the GOP’s terms.

Without an agreement, the Treasury Department says, the government won’t have enough money to pay all its bills after Tuesday. It will have to cut spending by about 40 percent and choose which programs and beneficiaries receive money and which don’t.

The dismal second-quarter report led economists to reduce their estimates for growth in the second half of the year. Capital Economics, which had expected the economy to grow 2.5 percent this year, now says 2 percent looks more likely.
