Deal announced on raising debt ceiling

By David Espo Associated Press Writer

W A S H I N G T O N — Ending a perilous stalemate, President Barack Obama and congressional leaders announced a historic agreement Sunday night on emergency legislation to avert the nation’s firstever financial default.

The dramatic resolution lifted a cloud that had threatened the still-fragile econom-

ic recovery at home — and it instantly powered a rise in financial markets overseas.

The agreement would slice at least $2.2 trillion from federal spending over a decade, a steep price for many Democrats, too little for many Republicans. The Treasury’s authority to borrow would be extended beyond the 2012 elections, a key objective for Obama, though the president had to give up

devastating effect on our economy,” he said.

House Speaker John Boehner telephoned Obama at mid-evening to say the agreement had been struck, then immediately began pitching the deal to his fractious rank and file.

“It isn’t the greatest deal in the world, but it shows how much we’ve changed the terms of the debate in this town,” he said on a confer-

ence call, according to GOP off icials. He added the agreement was “all spending cuts. The White House bid to raise taxes has been shut down.”

The House Democratic leader, Rep. Nancy Pelosi, was noncommittal. “I look forward to reviewing the legislation with my caucus to see what level of support we can provide,” she said in a written statement.

his insistence on raising taxes on wealthy Americans to reduce deficits.

The deal, with scant time remaining before Tuesday’s debt-limit deadline for paying government bills, “will allow us to avoid default and end the crisis that Washington imposed on the rest of America,” the president said in an announcement at the White House.

On a recent morning, Darlene Mortell left her east Lawrence home and traveled along sidewalks, side streets and bike lanes to get to the SRS office, which was one mile away at 1901 Del. She used her heavy-duty, custom-f it electronic wheelchair to get there, and her personal care attendant, Sarah Anderson, walked alongside her.

Mortell dropped off an inch-thick stack of papers that contained information about her medical history she received from her doctor. They were required for Vocational Rehabilitation Services, which she hopes will help her find a job.

“It’s something to do,” she said. “And the extra money would be nice.”

The widow and mother of two grown sons lives on $699 a month.

She also receives food and medical assistance through the Kansas Department of Social and Rehabilitation Services and has worked with the same case

manager since moving to Lawrence in 1992.

She visits the local office several times a month, if not more, because of required testing for vocational rehabilitation and paperwork

for the services.

Mortell has no idea what she’s going to do when the Lawrence SRS office closes.

She’s terrified. She can’t take her wheelchair to Kansas City or Topeka.

A call to her SRS case manager was returned by Angela de Rocha, director

of communications for SRS. She said SRS employees couldn’t talk about individual cases because of policies.

‘Extreme Makeover’ to build Ottawa home

ANDERSON AND MORTELL travel along Learnard Avenue on a recent outing. Mortell doesn’t like to stay cooped up in her house, but the SRS office closure will remove one of her most important and often-used destinations.

ABC television’s “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition” has chosen an Ottawa family to appear on its show.

The show features a team of designers, contractors and volunteers who race to do months worth of renovations in only a week.

The show picked the family of Staff Sgt. Allen Hill,

who nearly died when a roadside bomb exploded near him while he was serving in Iraq. Hill has recovered from the injuries but still deals with the effects of post-traumatic stress disorder. Loud noises are very unpleasant for Hill, which is especially problematic: His home is near a quarry and railroad tracks, and the sounds of dynamite blasts and loud train engines routinely fill the air.

The “Extreme Makeover” team wants to fix this by building the family a new home on different property.

Hill, along with his wife and two sons, will be sent on a weeklong vacation to Yosemite National Park while crews build the new house. Construction begins Tuesday.

A fundraising barbecue for the Family Build Fund will be from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.

Thursday at Forest Park,

600 N. Locust St. in Ottawa.

The Kansas City Barbeque Society is bringing in eight of the country’s top 10 pitmasters and their pit crews for the Extreme Makeover BBQ Throwdown, which will be judged by the cast of the show.

It’s pretty easy to rob a bank.

You don’t need much of a plan, don’t really need a weapon, probably won’t get much resistance from a bank teller and can get in and out quickly.

Two men — still not captured — followed that formula in two recent bank robberies, one in Lawrence on July 14 and one in Ottawa on July 15.

before today, to give rank and file lawmakers time to review the package. Senate approval seems virtually certain; the House could prove more difficult.

Without legislation in place by Tuesday, the Treasury would not be able to pay all its bills, raising the threat of a default that administration officials say could inflict catastrophic damage on the economy.

If approved, though, a compromise would presumably preserve America’s sterling credit rating, reassure investors in financial markets across the globe and possibly reverse the losses that spread across Wall Street in recent days as the threat of a default grew.

Even word of an impending deal earlier in the day by Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky sent U.S. stock futures upward. And before Obama had f inished speaking, Japan’s benchmark Nikkei index, opening this morning — at 7 p.m. Sunday CDT — was up 1.7 percent in early trading.

with $1.5 trillion more in deficit cuts from benefit programs or tax reform before Thanksgiving. Congress must vote on them by Christmas — or trigger across-theboard cuts that would hit the Pentagon and domestic programs.

Pending final passage, the agreement marked a dramatic reach across party lines that played out over six months and several rounds of negotiating, interspersed by periods of intense partisanship.

“Sometimes it seems our two sides disagree on almost everything,” Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said in floor remarks.

“But in the end, reasonable people were able to agree on this: The United States could not take the chance of defaulting on our debt, risking a United States financial collapse and a worldwide depression.”

Vice President Joe Biden, who played an important part in this weekend’s negotiations, agreed. He tweeted, “Compromise makes a comeback.”

Sharp divisions remain Not everyone felt that way.

“Someone has to say no. I will,” said Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., a contender for the 2012 Republican presidential nomination.

Over the weeks, Boehner emerged as Obama’s principal Republican antagonist in a contentious new era of divided government, yet struggled to corral his own rank and file at times.

Thursday at the Trinity Lutheran Church in Lawrence. Private inurnent will be in Pioneer Cemetery in Lawrence.

He died Friday, July 29, 2011, at his home.

He was born Aug. 24, 1927, in Kansas City, Mo., the son of James Elmer and Catherine Knaack Mesler.

He was a graduate of Paseo High School in Kansas City, Mo. He then served in the U.S. Navy during World War II. Following the war, he received his Bachelor of Science in engineering from Kansas University in 1949.

He studied at the Oak Ridge School of Reactor Technology in Tennessee.

He received his Master of Science and Ph.D. from the University of Michigan in 1955.

He was a professor emeritus in chemical and petroleum engineering at Kansas University and a professional engineer. While teaching, he was designated as the Warren S. Bellows Distinguished Professor of Chemical and Petroleum Engineering. He came to KU in 1957 from Ann Arbor, Mich.

In addition to doing research work in heat transfer focusing on boiling in thin liquid films, he helped to develop and teach courses in nuclear engineering.

He pioneered experimental measurement techniques that have contributed to the understanding of the phenomena of nucleate boiling.

He used high-speed photography to obtain some amazing “movies” of the boiling phenomenon.

He supervised the construction and operation of the KU nuclear reactor. The

nuclear operation was commissioned in 1961 and continued for almost 25 years before it was terminated.

Mesler During his career, he had two sabbaticals to Berkeley Nuclear Laboratory in England and traveled in Europe presenting research papers, many of which were published in the The American Institute of Chemical Engineers Journal.

He retired in 1992.

He was a member of Trinity Lutheran Church in Lawrence, the American Society of Chemical and Petroleum Engineers, the American Nuclear Society for more than 50 years and the Tau Beta Pi Honorary Engineering Society. He had also received numerous National Science Foundation research grants.

He married Jenny-Lea McGowan on June 9, 1951, in Lawrence. She preceded him in death Dec. 4, 2005.

Survivors include two daughters, Diane Mailen, Pomona, and Sandra Mesler, Berlin; two sons, Scott, Lawrence, and Doug, Tampa, Fla.; seven grandchildren and one great-grandson.

At the end, though, McConnell and Biden, who looked on as Obama announced the deal, provided a negotiating channel to get the deal completed, overcoming a last-minute standoff over the impact of spending cuts on the Pentagon budget.

The plan calls for spending cuts and increased borrowing authority for the Treasury in two stages.

In the first, passage of the legislation would trigger more than $900 billion in spending cuts over a decade as well as a $900 billion increase in the government’s borrowing authority.

The spending cuts would come from hundreds of federal programs across the face of government — accounts that Obama said would be left with the lowest levels of spending as a percentage of the overall economy in more than a half-century.

The increased borrowing authority includes $400 billion that would take effect immediately, and $500 billion that would be permitted after Congress had a chance to block it.

In the second stage, a newly created joint committee of Congress would be charged with recommending $1.5 trillion in deficit reductions by the end of November that would be put to a vote in Congress by year’s end. The cuts could come from benefit programs such as Medicare, Social Security and Medicaid as well as from an overhaul of the tax code.

The committee proposals

could trigger a debt limit increase of as much as $1.5 trillion, if approved by Congress. But if they do not materialize, automatic spending cuts would be applied across government to trim spending by $1.2 trillion.

Social Security, Medicaid and veterans’ benefits would be exempt from the automatic cuts, but payments to doctors, nursing homes and other Medicare providers could be trimmed, as could subsidies to insurance companies that offer an alternative to government-run Medicare.

The deal marked a classic compromise, a triumph of divided government that would let both Obama and Republicans claim they had achieved their objectives.

As the president demanded, the deal would allow the debt limit to rise by enough to tide the Treasury over until after the 2012 elections.

But Obama’s request to extend the current payroll tax holiday beyond the end of 2011 would not be included, nor his call for extended unemployment benefits for victims of the recession.

Republicans would win spending cuts of slightly more than the increase in the debt limit, as they have demanded. Additionally, tax increases would be off limits unless recommended by the bipartisan committee, which is expected to include six Republicans and six Democrats. The conservative campaign to force Congress to approve a balanced-budget amendment to the Constitution would be jettisoned.

said. No resistance is made.

“We don’t want to take any risks,” he said. “Money can be replaced.”

So nearly anyone can walk into a bank, demand money, and a teller will hand it over.

That leaves bank security in the hands of deterrence — aided by the stiff prison sentences— and apprehension.

Gay noted all the factors that weigh against a bank robber: surveillance footage and security tactics, such as tracking devices that can be attached to stolen money.

In the Ottawa case, surveillance cameras shot a clear picture of the suspect, and law enforcement obtained a description of the vehicle used as the getaway car, which was later abandoned. The FBI recently released the name of the suspect, Timothy Glen Caskey, also wanted in connection with several other crimes. His last known location was in Texas, and it was possible he was headed to Mexico In the Lawrence case, a hat obscured the face of the suspect, and authorities have not released a vehicle description.

Though there have been no arrests yet in either of these two cases, the odds of the robbers eluding capture for long are against them, said Bridget Patton, FBI spokeswoman.

Bank robberies boast one of the highest solution rates for all crimes — about 60 percent, according to FBI statistics. In 2011 so far, there have been 20 robberies in Kansas, 13 of which have been solved, Patton said.

The FBI has also been utilizing new options for some of the serial bank robbers that skip across states lines, such as electronic billboards and bank robber websites. The Kansas City field office operates BanditTrackerKansasCity.com, which features information about local cases and ways for the public to submit tips electronically.

The fact that the Lawrence and Ottawa bank robbers escaped capture initially doesn’t necessarily mean their freedom will last for long, Patton said.

“We’re going to keep working it until it’s solved,” she said.

2010 BANK ROBBERIES ● There were 5,546 bank robberies reported in the United States, 33 in Kansas. ● The average amount stolen was $7,670. ● In 97 percent of bank robberies, the suspect robbed a bank teller. ● 57 percent of bank robbers used a “demand note,” while 44 percent either displayed or threatened a weapon. ● In only 16 of the total bank robberies was there a death, and in 13 of those the bank robber was killed. ● About 10 percent of bank robberies are committed by women. ● If a weapon is used or threatened, the minimum sentence for a first-time offender is about six years, and can range up to 15 years, depending on criminal history. ● The clearance rate for bank robberies is about 60 percent.

Request threatens 2 senior meal sites

1 | BEIRUT

Syrian forces attack defiant cities Syrian security forces backed by tanks and snipers launched a ferocious assault Sunday on defiant cities and towns, killing at least 70 people and possibly many more as the regime raced to crush dissent ahead of Ramadan. Corpses littered the streets after a surge in violence that drew widespread international condemnation.

Estimates of the death toll, which were impossible to verify, ranged from around 75 people to nearly 140 on a day when the attacks began before dawn and witnesses said they were too frightened to collect corpses from the streets.

The worst carnage was in Hama, the scene of a 1982 massacre by President Bashar Assad’s late father and predecessor and a city with a history of defiance against 40 years of Assad family rule. Hospitals there were overwhelmed with bloodied casualties, suggesting the death toll could rise sharply, witnesses said.

President Barack Obama called the reports “horrifying” and said Assad is “completely incapable and unwilling” to respond to the legitimate grievances of the Syrian people.

CARLEEN ROBERTS, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF DOUGLAS COUNTY SENIOR SERVICES, talks with Greg Lewis, Lawrence, during lunch on Friday at the Senior Center, 745 Vt. Roberts is trying to appeal a request that meals served at the Senior Center be moved to Babcock Place.

2 | AFGHANISTAN

The Jayhawk Area Agency on Aging is considering an appeal by Douglas County Senior Services to keep its meal sites open at the Lawrence Senior Center and at Clinton Place Apartments.

In late spring, former Executive Director John Glassman requested that the Clinton Place Apartments location, 2125 Clinton Parkway, be closed. He also requested that the meals at the senior center, 745 Vt., be provided at Babcock Place Apartments, 1700 Mass., instead of the senior center.

Since then, Douglas County Senior Services has hired a new executive director, Carleen Roberts, who went to JAAA to appeal Glassman’s request.

She wants to keep both sites open and work on increasing attendance at the sites.

“I’m hoping and praying that’s what happens,” she said. “I did everything but get down on my knees.”

Douglas County Senior Services provides a noon meal for anyone 60 and older at five locations in the county, including Baldwin City and Eudora. The meals cost $2.75, but nobody is turned away because they can’t pay.

The meals are funded by the Older Americans Act, and the money is funneled through the Jayhawk Area Agency on Aging, or JAAA. Please see REQUEST, page 5A

No horsing around at fair contest

Plan sought by mid-October for U.S. exit The top U.S. commander in Afghanistan has been ordered to submit a plan by mid-October for the initial withdrawal of American troops, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff said Sunday. That plan may hinge in part on whether the latest surge in attacks continues through the holy month of Ramadan.

Commanders are hearing that Taliban leaders might leave their fighters in the country to try to regain lost ground during the Islamic holy period, which begins today, rather than crossing the border to Pakistan, said Adm. Mike Mullen, the Joint Chiefs chairman.

Mullen, who visited U.S. outposts along Afghanistan’s eastern border on Sunday, also said U.S. troops are making progress in their renewed campaign against Haqqani network insurgents in havens in Pakistan. And he issued another warning that Islamabad must step up its efforts to root out those militants.

Area riders flaunt talent in Open Horse Show

The Douglas County Fair continued Sunday morning with the Open Horse Show.

More than 50 participants of all ages and experience levels displayed their skills in a variety of events. Participants competed for purple, blue and white ribbons along with various prizes, including trophies and saddlebags.

Gretchen Brumm, one of the event’s superintendents, said the event was a great way for families to spend the day, featuring several activities for kids.

One event was a competition for younger riders to show with the help of an older relative or friend. Josie Scharfenberg, a 5-year-old from Ohio visiting her grandparents, participated with her aunt. The duo won the “outstanding” blue ribbon, which earned them a two-foot trophy.

There was also a stick-horse show for children not quite old enough to ride a horse.

Brumm’s husband made the stick horses for the children to choose and name.

“The judge will be out there judging them, and they ride and do everything like the big horses do,” Brumm said. “We have a lot of fun with it.”

At least 11 killed in police HQ bombing A suicide bomber blew himself up Sunday at the main gate of a provincial police headquarters in southern Afghanistan, killing at least 11 people in a city where Afghans have recently taken control of security.

Separately, five international service members were killed Sunday.

The suicide bombing in Lashkar Gah was the latest in a string of attacks in the south in recent weeks that have included assassinations of high-level government officials in neighboring Kandahar and a coordinated attack against government buildings in Uruzgan province that killed 19 people last week.

Insanity ruling not likely in Norway It’s unlikely that the right-wing extremist who admitted killing dozens in Norway last week will be declared legally insane because he appears to have been in control of his actions, the head of the panel that will review his psychiatric evaluation told The Associated Press.

The decision on Anders Behring Breivik’s mental state will determine whether he can be held criminally liable and punished with a prison sentence or sent to a psychiatric ward for treatment.

The July 22 attacks were so carefully planned and executed that it would be difficult to argue they were the work of a delusional madman, said Dr. Tarjei Rygnestad, who heads the Norwegian Board of Forensic Medicine.

SHARON'S BILLTOWN CAFE USED TO BE a favorite diner just east of Williamstown. It closed down June 30, 2006. Sharon Dodds operated the cafe for 18 years, and the locals raved about her homemade biscuits and gravy, pies and chicken and noodles. There had been a diner at that site since the 1940s.

manager through Communityworks Inc., said of Mortell’s means of transportation, “It’s a heavy duty chair, but not heavy duty enough for you to jump on the highway and go to Topeka.”

Communityworks is a nonprofit agency based in Overland Park that helps people with disabilities remain in their home and as independent as possible.

It’s also difficult for Mortell to use a telephone or computer because of her medical conditions. ●●●

Mortell has had muscular dystrophy since age 17. She has asthma, diabetes, thyroid problems, deterioration of the spine and food allergies.

She has been diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder and a traumatic brain injury. She was battered as a child.

She’s overweight because of her lack of mobility, the thyroid problem and as a result of medications. She said she watches her fats and eats a healthy diet. She even tracked her diet for her doctor, who found out she wasn’t consuming enough calories.

“I just don’t have the energy to eat,” she said. “But, I’m doing better.”

She gets teary-eyed as she talks about how she used to have long hair and weigh 140 pounds.

“Can’t do what I used to,” she said, adding that physical therapy causes a lot of pain.

Her wheelchair weighs 375 pounds, and she weighs more than 225, so she can’t use the Lawrence bus system because the weight limit for the lift is 600 pounds.

But, Mortell said she doesn’t mind using her wheelchair.

“That’s how I travel,” she said with a smile. “I love to roam. I can’t stay put in the house.”

She buys groceries, goes to the library and bank, and visits friends. She worked at Jubilee Cafe for 14 years and has volunteered at the Lawrence Community Shelter. She’s done a variety of jobs during her lifetime. She talked about getting her hands greasy as a diesel engine mechanic. ●●●

Mortell is a kind person who doesn’t complain even though her back “feels like someone is stomping” on it.

She has a positive outlook on life and will call you “honey” with her Southern accent.

But when she learned that the SRS office was closing, she said, “I was hotter than all firecrackers.”

That’s her way of saying she’s really angry and it’s no laughing matter.

On two hot and humid days, which affect her breathing, she made a point to attend public forums about the closure of the Lawrence office.

That didn’t surprise Donovan, who described Mortell has a fighter and activist.

“The fact that she went through her pain, the tiredness and the heat of that day tells you this is an important matter to her,” Donovan said.

aren’t able to get out. That’s why she described the SRS plan to close the local office as disastrous.

“It’s a huge hardship to ask people to go out of our town for anything. They can’t get to a doctor’s appointment in Kansas City, so how are they going to get to an SRS office?” she asked.

Donovan said to receive food assistance, a lot of people, including Mortell, need to make face-to-face appointments with their SRS workers because they have to show receipts.

Internet access is not going to help the situation. A friend recently bought a computer for Mortell, and she’s able to use it only with the assistance of her personal care attendant. She’s learning to reconnect with friends through Facebook.

“She’s my teacher,” Mortell said of Anderson.

Donovan said she can’t figure out how to apply for Medicaid online, so she doesn’t expect her clients to.

“I think having that in-person resource is massively important,” she said.

SUNDAY CROSSWORD SOLUTION FOR JULY 31

●●●

For people with disabilities, body language is important, and that was obvious during my interview with Mortell.

When she had trouble comprehending questions, I saw a confused look on her face. She also carefully watched my body language and facial expressions to know whether she was getting her point across.

Donovan said SRS workers are supposed to be connecting their clients to resources and helping them find ways to improve life.

“We take that away from people, and there’s a huge hole,” she said. “So, basically what they are saying is, ‘You are out of luck. You don’t get to communicate with your worker face-to-face,’ and I think that’s appalling. I am pretty disturbed by that.”

Mortell said someone SRS had closed her case, which caused anxiety. She immediately went to the local office and found out that it wasn’t true. It was resolved quickly.

“People don’t go to SRS when things are going great.

They are usually in crisis,” Donovan said. “It’s always a crisis when you are in poverty and when you are disabled and you need assistance.”

Donovan said SRS often mails notices about changes in services. She gets notices for Mortell. At the bottom of the notices, it states to contact SRS if there are questions. She said that may seem easy, but for people with brain injuries, the constant influx of paperwork is confusing and they need to go over it with an SRS worker.

SRS also has a Low-Income Energy Assistance Program, or LEAP. Donovan said the applications are difficult and require a lot of information, so typically someone helps.

Without the local office, she believes people won’t apply and as a result, their utilities will be shut off.

“This is going to be disastrous for more people than we can even count right now, and what it’s going to end up costing people — we can’t even measure at this point.”

Kansas law defunding Request clinic faces first legal test

OPEN HOUSE

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

By Roxana Hegeman Associated Press Writer

WICHITA — Planned Parenthood has portrayed a new state statute defunding its Kansas chapter as the product of abortion politics — even though none of the federal monies it receives goes to pay for abortions.

As Planned Parenthood of Kansas and Mid-Missouri heads into a courtroom today in hope of convincing a federal judge to block the provision’s implementation, his ruling could imminently impact thousands of lowincome patients.

Some 5,700 women, men and teenagers depend on its clinics in Wichita and Hays for contraception services, pregnancy testing, cancer screenings and testing for sexually transmitted diseases.

Planned Parenthood offers abortion services in Kansas only at its clinic in Overland Park, a Kansas City suburb, but also has clinics in Wichita and Hays. Those two clinics are operated at a loss and offer reproductive health care services.

Closure would be necessary The entity has already said it would be forced to close its Hays clinic unless U.S. District Judge J. Thomas Marten immediately prohibits the state from stripping it of $330,000 in federal Title X annual funding. Patients would face higher costs, less access to services and longer wait or travel times for appointments, it argued.

Breaks CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

Lawrence, attended the trip to Zion National Park over spring break last semester.

His group did volunteer work that supported nature preservation.

It was very rewarding, he said, and a change from the flat plains of Kansas.

“When you get out in Zion National Park, it’s pretty much a network of huge valleys,” he said.

He collected cacti, removed invasive weeds and managed to forget all about the election back home for Student Senate — for which he served on the executive staff.

The Alternative Breaks group will soon begin a campaign to raise $30,000 for a scholarship fund, Jian said.

The endowed fund would provide scholarships for students to attend alternative break programs.

The weeklong breaks typically cost $275, Jian said. That pays for travel, food and lodging.

“But if a college student doesn’t have $275, they don’t

Attorneys representing the state of Kansas have countered that the preliminary injunction sought by Planned Parenthood is unnecessary because other public agencies can handle these lowincome patients. They noted the state has already contracted with the Sedgwick County Health Department to offer family planning services to low-income individuals and is presently negotiating with another provider in Hays to do the same.

Meanwhile, Planned Parenthood has questioned whether the county health department can expand its staff and facilities fast enough to handle double its present patient load and whether it can match the weekend hours and long-term contraceptive services it offers. It has also argued the situation is even “more dire” in Hays where there is no Title X provider in place.

Those conflicting portrayals come as both sides try to bolster their cases with various constitutional arguments as the first courtroom test of the Kansas statute nears.

Testing constitutionality The state of Kansas has touted state sovereignty, arguing that the proposed injunction would unconstitutionally replace the state’s discretion with the court’s judgment. It contended such a ruling would effectively “commandeer” one of the state’s agencies, forcing it to cancel past contracts and enter into new ones selected by the court.

have $275,” she said of the reason for the scholarships.

Applications and a complete list of programs are available online at groups.ku.edu/~albreaks.

Sam Long, a Topeka senior, traveled to Cincinnati this summer to volunteer at a center for children with Down syndrome.

“It was an awesome experience,” he said.

When he was growing up, he said he often encountered other children with mental disabilities but never engaged with them very much.

“When you really get to know them, it sounds clichéd, but you see they’re not that different from everyone else,” he said.

After returning from Cincinnati, members of his group have been volunteering on their own at a similar center in Kansas City, he said.

Joyce said he was glad to see the program expanding.

“It really is a great program,” Joyce said. “I’d like to see every student participate in it.”

Jocelyn Lyons, executive director of JAAA, said the agency allocates money based on need. She said that agencies, like Douglas County Senior Services, receive a reimbursement for each meal they provide, but that the amount is capped based on the amount agreed upon in a contract. If a site closes, Douglas County would lose those federal dollars.

The Lawrence Senior Center serves an average of 25 people per day, and there’s an average of six per day at Clinton Place.

She said she likes the friendly atmosphere and familiar faces.

Chuck Benedict said that’s one of the reasons he eats lunch at the senior center almost every day.

“I like to B.S. with the guys,” he said. “And for the money, you can’t beat it. It’s filling.”

Some seniors said they would feel unwelcome at Babcock Place.

A message left on Glassman’s cellphone was not returned.

Emily Donaldson, chairwoman of the Douglas County Senior Services board, said the decision to close the sites was made prematurely and mostly based on library construction. At the time, the board supported Glassman’s decision and now it supports Roberts’ appeal.

“We are in the position of having to constantly review our meal sites and the services that we provide to make sure that we are using our resources wisely across all of Douglas County,” she said.

If JAAA decides to close the meal sites, the decision would go into effect Oct. 1.

JAAA is still accepting comments about the possible closure of the meal sites.

Comments can be emailed to mridinger@jhawkaaa.org or mailed to Jayhawk Area Agency on Aging, 2910 SW Topeka Blvd., Topeka, KS 66611.

The Senior Wheels program, which serves homebound residents, will not be affected by the decision.

Salina juvenile facility sees jump in residents SALINA — There was a time when the Salina County Juvenile Detention Center had room to spare and rented out space to other counties.

Those times are over. The center’s Lt. Sean Kochanowski told The Salina Journal that he has seen his clientele swell from a few to, at times, more than a dozen residents in the 10-bed facility.

Holy month marred by unrest, high food prices

PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA SPEAKS from White House briefing room Sunday in Washington, about a deal being reached to raise the debt limit. Americans showed a range of emotions and responses to deal, but nearly none of them were positive.

In general, Americans exasperated over news of debt-limit deal

By Andrew Dalton Associated Press Writer

L OS A N G E L E S — From the right and center: mild disgust.

From the left: outright anger.

Americans showed a range of emotions and responses to the debt-limit deal President Barack Obama and top leaders of Congress struck Sunday, but nearly none of them were positive. Except perhaps relief that the weeks of wrangling were finally over.

Phil Waters of Anchorage, Alaska, gave a variation of the most common response.

“It should have happened a real long time ago,” said Waters, a 60-year-old semiretired helicopter mechanic as he sat inside Darwin’s Theory, a downtown Anchorage bar. “It never should have gotten this far out of hand.”

Waters, who described himself as an “almost Libertarian conservative,” said he would have liked to see a lot more cuts than the spending reductions Obama and House Speaker John Boehner agreed to.

But Kiran Mahto of Portland, Ore., who volunteered for the Obama campaign in 2008, would have preferred no deal at all to the concessions the president made to congressional Republicans.

Mahto, a 35-year-old managing editor who works in health care information technology, said the agreement is the latest in a long string of times Obama has disappointed him and vowed it would be the last.

“I’m actively opposed to this president now. That also goes for his party since they’ve been silent through the whole ordeal,” said Mahto, who thinks the debt deal will lead to an Obama defeat in 2012. “Cutting the deficit will do nothing to get people jobs. Without jobs and without a liberal base, he will lose.”

The agreement would cut at least $2.4 trillion from fed-

eral spending over a decade, but allowed the country to avoid a first-ever debt default and extended the Treasury’s authority to borrow beyond the 2012 elections.

Even the outline of the agreement, much less the details, left those without strong feelings confused and frustrated.

Brett Piper, 34, and Matthew Crosby, 30, radiology residents visiting Silver Spring, Md., from Indianapolis for a conference felt that they have probably been paying more attention to the debate than most, but were still unsure how much they could really understand.

“It’s hard to know what to trust,” Piper said. “The issue is made so complicated that it’s tough for the average American to make sense of it.”

Crosby agreed.

“It just makes me mad,” he said. “I’m innately interested, but I just get frustrated.”

Piper said he is a Republican but doesn’t feel that he can trust the Republicans.

“It’s a political game,” Piper said. “And in this game, everyone looks bad.”

Many, including foreign nationals visiting the United States, were happy that worries about a debt default and international financial havoc could be put to rest.

Several British tourists discussed the developments in Times Square, not far from the National Debt Clock, a billboard-size digital display showing how much money the United States owes. They noted that Britain has had to cut costs over the last few years.

“For us in Europe it’s a good thing,” said one of the tourists, Andrew Harris, who works for an airline. “We were waiting for them to come to an agreement. It was really a scary thing to hear.

What happens in the U.S. always has an impact in Europe.”

C A I R O — From Syria to Libya and Egypt, the uprisings and unrest gripping the Arab world have cast a pall on the start of Ramadan, the Muslim holy month when the traditional focus on piety will likely be eclipsed by more unrest.

Food prices — part of the economic hardships that catalyzed the ouster of the Egyptian and Tunisian leaders — are still climbing. And protesters have shown little patience for conciliatory gestures by governments after decades of empty promises.

With momentum strong to drive out authoritarian regimes, there is no sign that opposition forces will ease up on protests — even with the difficulties of the month of dawn-to-dusk fasting that begins today.

Predictions of a tense Ramadan have already started to be realized.

Libyan rebels are turning their weapons on each other, dimming hopes for the overthrow of longtime leader Moammar Gadhafi.

Syrian security forces escalated their crackdown on protesters the day before Ramadan on Sunday, killing more than 70 people. And the violence in Syria is only expected to intensify throughout the holy month.

In Egypt, Cairo’s Tahrir Square is once again a tent encampment and the joyous celebrations that accompanied Hosni Mubarak’s fall on Feb. 11 have given way to anger and impatience over the slow pace of change.

In response to the pressure from a new round of protests, the judiciary is promising to put Mubarak, his security chief and his two sons on trial this week for a range of charges from corruption to

A WOMAN POINTS SKYWARD AS SHE AND HER SONS LOOK FOR THE CRESCENT MOON in Amman, Jordan, at sunset Sunday. Religious authorities in most of the Middle East declared that today will be the start of the holy month of Ramadan, a period devoted to dawn-to-dusk fasting, prayers and spiritual introspection. Ramadan begins around 11 days earlier each year. Its start is calculated based on the sighting of the new moon, which marks the beginning of the Muslim lunar month that varies between 29 or 30 days. ordering the killing of protesters during the uprising.

The hearings are to be carried live on state television, broadcasts that could easily outshine the Ramadan television serials that Egyptians love to watch during the month.

Ramadan falls this year during the scorching summer, when tempers already running hot could easily boil over, especially as Egyptians complain about the continued rise in food prices and the general economic malaise after the uprising.

Food prices typically spike during Ramadan, and the extravagant dinners many put on to break the daily fast drive a deep hole in household budgets.

“Before the revolution,

Egyptians were like kindling waiting for a match,” said Mahmoud El-Askalany with the consumer group Citizens Against the High Cost of Living. He was talking about the sense of frustration over soaring prices of food and consumer goods, as well as the gross income inequality and nepotism that prevailed before the Arab uprisings.

“If anyone thinks that this has changed, they’d be wrong,” El-Askalany said.

“The same rage we saw then can surface again, and worse.”

Still, Egyptians have not lost their sense of humor. In the annual tradition of naming dates after celebrities, they have dubbed the cheapest, least desirable variety of the fruit “Hosni Mubarak” this year.

“They’re the lousiest of them all,” said date vendor Sherif Ramadan, flicking one of the shriveled brown pellets back into a burlap sack with the others. Even though they sell for 2.2 pounds, and dates are a traditional food for Ramadan, “there’s no demand for them,” he says.

In Syria, protests and the government’s violent crackdown on them are expected to escalate during the month ahead, deepening a spiral of violence that has already killed at least 1,600 people since the uprising began in mid-March.

Libya’s civil war remains mired in a stalemate, and across the oil-rich OPEC member, the fighting has battered what was once an economy on the cusp of sharp growth.

Elderly in remote towns especially at risk in heat wave

main strip in this tiny northern Oklahoma farming community, but there aren’t many customers.

With temperatures topping 100 degrees, the elderly farmers and retirees who Knight says like to gather and “swap lies” are nowhere to be seen. They’re also probably not at their doctor’s appointments, shopping at the store or at their club meetings.

Many are afraid to go outside.

The heat wave scorching the Great Plains has turned many rural communities into virtual ghost towns for the last month and also heightened a sense of isolation among the elderly residents who make up much of their population these days. The relentless stretch of 100degree days, which began unusually early this year and

— Mary Hasley, 79, who has canceled her doctor’s appointments because of the heat could run for weeks longer, is making their way of life difficult and even dangerous, thwarting their routines for getting the supplies and health care they need.

“I can’t hardly do nothing when it’s this hot,” said Bryce Butler, an 86-year-old World War II veteran who stays in his house every day in this town of 200 people. He usually drives to the county seat in Guthrie, about 15 miles away, for errands but now can’t go out after noon.

“I’m afraid if I had car trouble, I’d have a heat stroke,” said Mary Hasley, 79, who lives in nearby Cashion. She

has canceled her doctor’s appointments. “It’s just too dangerous.”

It’s been over 100 for more than 30 days in a row in many parts of Oklahoma. In the town of Altus, the average high in June — when the weather is normally mild — was 105. In the many dozens of rural communities like Mulhall, where there are no longer any stores or other services, the elderly must drive other places for almost everything, and that has become daunting this summer.

“We go into plenty of areas where there’s not even a service station, no drug store, no grocery stores,” said Marlene Snow, who delivers meals to elderly residents as the project director of the Logan County Areawide Aging Agency. “Most of them don’t want to go out. They don’t have the energy.”

In remote towns, the elderly residents try to look out for each other. But it isn’t easy when those who live out in

the country are afraid to drive to town. Many live alone.

James Tucker, pastor of Mulhall’s First Baptist Church, says he’s trying to keep track of who’s coming to services and who’s not.

“Being a small community, you know who needs what and everybody tries to check on each other,” he said.

But Jo Swinney, an outreach specialist for the Logan County group, worries some elderly folks could easily slip through the cracks. “I’m sure there are,” Swinney said. “It’s hard to make contact with people in these rural areas if they don’t seek help from someone.”

The oppressive heat already has been blamed on nine deaths in Oklahoma, including a man in Oklahoma City who was discovered inside his home with no electricity or running water; it’s suspected as the cause of seven others, said Cherokee Ballard, a spokeswoman for the state medical examiner’s office.

BRIEFLY Verdict for Americans in Iran within a week TEHRAN, IRAN — The lawyer for two Americans jailed in Iran on charges of espionage said Sunday the court will announce its verdict within a week, dashing hopes for their immediate release after a final hearing in the case.

Shane Bauer and Josh Fattal, both 29, have been held in Iran’s Evin Prison since shortly after their arrest along the border with Iraq exactly two years ago on Sunday. The case has added to tensions between the United States and Iran that were already high over issues like Tehran’s disputed nuclear program.

The Americans’ lawyer, Masoud Shafiei, had hoped that Sunday’s final court session would result in their immediate release because it coincided with the two-year anniversary of their arrest and came near the start this week of the holy Muslim month of Ramadan, when pardons are traditionally handed down.

Shafiei said he and the two Americans presented closing arguments in their defense and the court announced the end of its hearings.

“The judge said the court will announce its verdict about my clients within one week,” Shafiei told The Associated Press.

He said he was still hopeful that, if found guilty, they would be sentenced to time already served and released.

Katharine Hepburn home up for sale OLD SAYBROOK, CONN. — Katharine Hepburn’s former home on Connecticut’s Long Island Sound is up for sale.

Owners have updated the house by combining rooms to create larger and more open spaces. The house had 21 rooms and nine bathrooms but has been reduced to 15 rooms and 7 1/2 bathrooms.

The estate is now on the market for $28 million. The house, on the largest of three lots, can be purchased separately for $18 million.

Seven years ago, the property sold for $6 million.

The Academy Award-winning actress retired to the home and lived there until her death in 2003 at age 96. The feminist icon won four Oscars and received 12 nominations over her 60-year career.

4 shot after George Clinton show in Ohio CLEVELAND — A man fired several shots from a handgun during a large fight near an outdoor concert venue featuring funk music artist George Clinton, killing one person and wounding three others, police said Sunday.

The fight erupted before 10 p.m. Saturday at an intersection near Luke Easter Park, the venue for the eighth annual Unity in the Park festival.

Police didn’t have a description of the shooter, and no arrests had been made.

It was unclear how long after Clinton or the other musicians performed that the shooting erupted or what prompted it. Police said they

didn’t know if those involved in the fight were among concertgoers leaving the area.

“These were younger people, so we’re not sure,” police Sgt. Sammy Morris said.

“George Clinton is an older (artist). We’re not going to speculate.”

A 16-year-old boy with a gunshot wound to the head died of his injuries early Sunday, Morris said. He didn’t know the conditions of the other three who were wounded: a 20-year-old woman shot in the neck, and a 14-year-old boy and a 23-year-old man each hospitalized with leg wounds.

Stepping up Local residents should appreciate the creative efforts of county officials to help Lawrence Community Shelter plans move forward.

I

t’s always nice to see a plan come together.

That seems to be the case with Douglas County’s plan to purchase land for a consolidated public works operation and, at the same time, open a door that may allow plans to move forward for a new facility to serve the local homeless population.

After months of searching for a new location, officials with the Lawrence Community Shelter decided to pursue a plan to purchase a vacant warehouse in a complex east of the Douglas County Jail. Although the Lawrence City Commission approved the location, shelter off icials still faced a problem with covenants on the property that some neighboring landowners contended would prohibit the use of the property for a homeless shelter and workshop.

Enter Douglas County officials. Although they had no firm timeline for consolidating public works operations, when the time comes, they would need some land. A location near the county jail made some sense. On Wednesday, commissioners approved the purchase of 34 acres east of the jail.

Not entirely coincidentally, that 34 acres is in the same complex as the proposed homeless shelter site. The county’s purchase will make it the majority landowner in the complex and, therefore, the majority controller of the covenants. The county can ask members of the board of trustees that oversees the covenants to resign and appoint new members to the board who will be supportive of the Lawrence Community Shelter project.

The move clears the way for shelter officials to reopen negotiations to buy the warehouse and move their operation out of downtown.

The new site may not be perfect, but it is away from downtown and most residential developments, and shelter officials say it will meet their needs.

The Lawrence Community Shelter has ambitious plans to help homeless people put their lives together and become productive members of society. However, the new facility won’t serve as a drop-in center, which means it won’t serve everyone. The continuing goal has been to move the shelter out of downtown, but moving the shelter won’t move all the homeless out of downtown, especially when that’s where meals and other services are provided.

One hurdle may have been cleared for those who want to help the community’s homeless population, but others remain.

The good news is that while other groups and individuals were standing by, county officials took a creative step to try to clear the way for the Lawrence Community Shelter to move to another location. The community should be grateful for the county’s efforts to work toward a solution for this difficult issue.

Libertarian trends undercut government WASHINGTON — August is upon us, beaches beckon, and Michele Bachmann has set the selfimprovement bar high. She recently told The Wall Street Journal, “When I go on vacation and I lay on the beach, I bring von Mises.” The congresswoman may be the first person ever to dribble sun lotion on the section of Ludwig von Mises’ “Human Action” wherein the Austrian economist (1881-1973) discussed “the formal and aprioristic character of praxeology.”

Autodidacts less exacting than Bachmann should spill sand on the pages of “The Declaration of Independents: How Libertarian Politics Can Fix What’s Wrong With America” by Nick Gillespie and Matt Welch. These incurably upbeat journalists with Reason magazine believe that not even government, try as it will, can prevent onrushing social improvement.

“Confirmation bias” is the propensity to believe news that confirms our beliefs. Gillespie and Welch say “existence bias” disposes us to believe that things that exist always will. The authors say that the most ossified, sclerotic sectors of American life — politics and government — are about to be blown up by new capabilities, especially the Internet, and the public’s wholesome impatience that is encouraged by them.

“Think of any customer experience that has made you wince or kick the cat. What jumps to mind? Waiting in multiple lines at the Department of Motor Vehi-

cles. Observing the bureaucratic sloth and lowest-commondenominator performance of public schools, especially in big cities. Getting ritually humiliated going through airport security.

Trying desperately to understand your doctor bills. Navigating the permitting process at your local city hall. Wasting a day at home while the gas man fails to show up. Whatever you come up with, chances are good that the culprit is either a direct government monopoly (as in the providers of K-12 education) or a heavily regulated industry or utility where the government is the largest player (as in health care).”

Since 1970, per pupil real, inflation-adjusted spending has doubled and the teacher-pupil ratio

has declined substantially. But math and reading scores are essentially unchanged, so we are spending much more to achieve the same results. America has the shortest school year in the industrial world, an academic calendar — speaking of nostalgia — suited to an America when children were needed on the farms and ranches in the late spring and early autumn. “No other industry,” Gillespie and Welch write, “still adheres to a calendar based on 19th-century agricultural cycles — even agriculture has given up that schedule.”

In the 1950s, A&P supermarkets (remember them? You probably don’t) had a 75 percent market share. What used to be the General Motors Building near Central Park South has an Apple store where the automobile showroom once was. When Kodak loses customers, it withers.

But when government fails, it expands even faster. This is, Gillespie and Welch say, because “politics is a lagging indicator of change,” a sector of top-down traditions increasingly out of step with today’s “bottom-up business and culture” of: “You want soy with that decaf mocha frappuccino?”

A generation that has grown up with the Internet “has essentially been raised libertarian,” swimming in markets, which are choices among competing alternatives.

And the left weeps. Preaching what has been called nostalgianomics, liberals mourn the passing of the days when there was

one phone company, three car companies, three television networks, an airline cartel, and big labor and big business were cozy with big government.

The America of one universally known list of Top 40 records is as gone as records. When the Census offered people the choice of checking the “multiracial” category, Maxine Waters, then chairing the Congressional Black Caucus, was indignant: “Letting individuals opt out of the current categories just blurs everything.”

This is the voice of reactionary liberalism: No blurring, no changes, no escape from old categories, spin the world back to the 1950s.

“Declaration of Independents” is suitable reading for this summer of debt-ceiling debate, which has been a proxy for a bigger debate, which is about nothing less than this: What should be the nature of the American regime?

America is moving in the libertarians’ direction not because they have won an argument but because government and the sectors it dominates have made themselves ludicrous. This has, however, opened minds to the libertarians’ argument.

The essence of which is the commonsensical principle that before government interferes with the freedom of the individual, and of individuals making consensual transactions in markets, it ought to have a defensible reason for doing so. It usually does not.

OLD HOME TOWN

100

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Aug. 1, 1911: YEARS “The occasional AGO visitor to Lawrence IN 1911 will look in vain for the familiar Masonic emblems beaming from the upper story of the Lawrence National Bank building. Soon the lodge will be happily housed it its beautiful new temple at the corner of Massachusetts and Berkeley streets.”

“A tub full of ice cold beer is what the officers found last Saturday night when they raided the place belonging to ‘Aunt Jane’ Williams on Arkansas street. The booze was as cold as ice could make it and had evidently been put to the test judging from the number of empties and labels that were found scattered about the room. There were still about eight bottles on the ice and the officers promptly confiscated them…”

Iranian threat still looms as U.S. leaves Iraq WASHINGTON — Of all the leftover business for the Obama administration as U.S. troops prepare to leave Iraq at the end of the year, nothing is more symbolic of the continuing threats there — and throughout the region — than the case of a Lebanese Hezbollah operative named Ali Mussa Daqduq.

Daqduq has been one of Iran’s top covert operatives in Iraq, according to U.S. officials. He was captured in March 2007 by U.S. forces in Basra who had evidence he had plotted (with Iranian help) a kidnapping in Karbala that January that resulted in the deaths of five American soldiers.

U.S. satellite photos showed the Iranians had even built a mockup of the Karbala facility inside Iran to practice the kidnapping.

Daqduq is now a prisoner at Camp Cropper, a U.S. detention facility near the Baghdad airport.

Thousands of other detainees have already been released, and the U.S. must close Camp Cropper by year-end, under the status-of-forces agreement negotiated by the Bush administration.

The detainees will be handed over to the Iraqis (who would likely free many of them) unless they are transferred elsewhere.

Herein lies the Daqduq conundrum, which has been the subject of weekly interagency meetings this summer: The White House is leaning against releasing a prisoner who has American blood on

David Ignatius davidignatius@washpost.com

These Hezbollah “cadres, backed with

Iranian money and intelligence support, have in recent years fanned out across the region.” his hands. But how should he be prosecuted?

The administration is weighing several options. First, Daqduq could be tried by a U.S. military commission, presumably at Guantanamo Bay, under the laws of war. A second option is to try him in a civilian court. That’s what the Justice Department decided to do earlier this month with a Somali terrorism suspect named Ahmed Abdulkadir Warsame. He was indicted and transferred to New York for trial, after being held for months in a naval vessel in the Persian Gulf.

The case — surprise! — has become something of a partisan political squabble. On July 21, 20 Republican senators wrote

Defense Secretary Leon Panetta urging him not to release Daqduq to the Iraqis and arguing that he should be held at Gitmo and, if possible, tried by a military commission. “If he is released from custody, we firmly believe he will seek to harm or kill more American servicemen and women,” the senators wrote.

In a May 16 letter, Republican senators had warned Attorney General Eric Holder against trying Daqduq in a civilian court.

“His actions clearly defy the laws of war,” they argued.

I’m no legal expert, but I do know that Daqduq represents the sharp end of the spear that Iran is pointing at Iraq and other Arab nations. He was part of Hezbollah’s special operations unit, created in the mid-1980s by the late Imad Mughniyah and directed by him until he was assassinated in 2008.

The senior surviving member of this elite group of Hezbollah fighters is said to be Mustafa Badr alDin, who, according to news reports, was indicted by the U.N. Special Tribunal for Lebanon for the 2005 murder of Rafiq al-Hariri.

A dossier on Daqduq — suggesting the scope of Iranian activities in Iraq — was presented in July 2007 by Brig. Gen. Kevin Bergner, then U.S. military spokesman in Baghdad. In 2005, Hezbollah sent Daqduq to Iran to help train Iraqi extremists for the Quds Force, the covert-action arm of the Iranian Revolutionary

Guard Corps. He made four trips into Iraq in 2006.

Back in Tehran, Daqduq was told to organize “Special Groups” of Shiite extremists that would operate like Hezbollah fighters.

According to Bergner, Iran was, at that time, funding the Special Groups with $750,000 to $3 million a month, as well as training them to use “Explosively Formed Projectiles,” the sophisticated roadside bombs that have killed so many U.S. troops.

These Hezbollah cadres, backed with Iranian money and intelligence support, have in recent years fanned out across the region. As Arabic-speaking Lebanese, they can work with Shiite activists from Bahrain and eastern Saudi Arabia, as well as Iraq.

Iran’s leverage in Iraq will be especially important if its ally, Bashar al-Assad, is toppled in Syria.

At a time when Iranian-made weapons are killing a rising number of U.S. troops who remain in Iraq, U.S. senior military commanders have warned the White House that releasing Daqduq would send what one calls “a horrible message.” The Obama administration seems to agree — and is weighing how to try this Hezbollah operative. I favor a trial, but not in the heart of Manhattan. The al-Qaida threat may be waning but not that posed by Hezbollah.

DILBERT Columbia recoups $14K in parking fines COLUMBIA, MO. (AP) — The city of Columbia recovered more than $15,000 in late fines recently after the local newspaper published a list of unpaid parking tickets.

The Columbia Daily Tribune, which published the list in June, reported Sunday that drivers have since paid back $14,130 in fines, and $3,085 worth of tickets were returned as undeliverable. That leaves 170 tickets totaling about $21,315 in fines left.

City prosecutors are reviewing the remaining unpaid tickets for possible prosecution. If prosecuted, a driver could be fined as much as $500 per ticket.

Shara Meyer, municipal court clerk, said she thinks so many people paid their late fines because of an increase in late payment fees and attention surrounding an increase in meter fines from $5 to $10 — not because of the publication of list.

KANSAS CITY CHIEFS QUARTERBACK MATT CASSEL (7) FIRES a pass to a teammate during training camp on Sunday in St. Joseph, Mo. The Chiefs will enter the season without a proven backup quarterback behind Cassel.

Chiefs lack experience behind QB Cassel

By Doug Tucker Associated Press Sports Writer

ST . J OSEPH , M O . — If Kansas City Chiefs fans could make a wish, they should probably plead for Matt Cassel’s continued good health.

Behind their Pro Bowl quarterback, at least early in camp, are two potential backups with a grand total of four NFL completions between them. And one guy has all of those.

Risky? No doubt. And there’s no guarantee the Chiefs won’t eventually bring in an experienced signal-caller to compete with rookie Ricky Stanzi and Tyler Palko, who has attempted Matt Strasen/AP Photo AP File Photo just six passes since entering the BEARS RUNNING BACK GALE SAYERS (40) CARRIES the ball in this TEXAS A&M RUNNING BACK CYRUS GRAY LAUGHS before answering a NFL in 2007 as a rookie free Nov. 10, 1970, file photo against San Francisco in Chicago.

Royals complete road trip with win

Tony Dejak/AP Photo

KANSAS CITY RELIEF PITCHER JOAKIM SORIA, RIGHT, IS CONGRATULATED by catcher Brayan Pena after closing out the game against Cleveland. The Royals defeated the Indians, 5-3, on Sunday in Cleveland.

CLEVELAND (AP) — The Kansas City Royals aren’t playing like a last-place team.

Sunday’s 5-3 victory over Cleveland completed a successful road trip for the Royals, who split four games in Boston and won two of three against the Indians.

Manager Ned Yost hopes his club has picked up some momentum to start a homestand that begins Tuesday against Baltimore.

“Two wins against Boston — in Boston — is really good,” he said. “Coming in here and battling with this team, and winning two out of three with a chance to

take all three of them, I thought we played great baseball the whole road trip.”

If not for Joakim Soria’s blown save in Saturday’s 5-2 loss, the Royals would have pulled off a sweep. Soria redeemed himself by closing out Sunday’s win, his 20th save in 26 chances.

Asdrubal Cabrera drew a oneout walk, but Carlos Santana hit into a game-ending double play. “(Saturday night) just happened. He threw good pitches and he got hit,” Yost said of Soria’s turnaround. “(Sunday) he made good pitches and he got us through it. He definitely did an outstanding job.”

Danny Duffy pitched into the sixth inning starting for the injured Kyle Davies, and Jeff Francoeur and Alex Gordon homered. The Royals have won eight of 12.

Duffy (3-4) allowed two runs in five innings, giving up eight hits and striking out six. He also picked two runners off first.

Duffy was told Saturday night that he would replace Davies, who has been bothered by a sore right shoulder.

“I told him (Saturday) to start thinking about being ready,” Yost said.

ROYALS

Stallings nabs first win; Woodland stroke back WHITE SULPHER SPRINGS , W.V A. ( AP ) — Scott Stallings made a birdie on the final hole to qualify for a three-way playoff, then sprinted in excitement toward the 18th tee and showed he could repeat the feat on the first extra hole.

The PGA Tour rookie sank a seven-footer for birdie on the 168yard hole to win the Greenbrier

Classic on Sunday, beating Bob Estes and Bill Haas.

After watching Estes and Haas miss longer birdie attempts on the first extra hole, Stallings curled in his putt for his first tour victory.

He flipped his putter, then hugged and high-fived his caddie.

“To be a champion in such a great event is a huge blessing,” Stallings said.

The 26-year-old Stallings is the 10th first-time winner on the PGA Tour this year and the sixth rookie to do it.

“I’ve wanted to do this since I was a little kid,” Stallings said. “I was that little boy running around chasing autographs and yelling at guys because they wouldn’t stop and sign my golf balls.”

Stallings overcame a tough start

and made six birdies on the back nine to gain the playoff, where he earned a winner’s check worth $1.08 million and a spot in the Bridgestone Invitational.

Jimmy Walker (68), Andres Romero (65), Brendon de Jonge (66), Cameron Tringale (67) and former Kansas University golfer Gary Woodland (69) finished at 9 under, one stroke out of the playoff.

Tigers-Angels more like pro wrestling

Receiver Burress makes jump from jail to Jets

By Michael Rosenberg Detroit Free Press

DETROIT — For much of Sunday afternoon, I thought we would need a baseball historian to put the Tigers-Angels game in perspective. As it turns out, we needed a mediator.

Justin Verlander nearly threw another no-hitter, but it’s hard to pitch in the middle of a pro wrestling match. We’ll never know if Verlander would have finished his no-hitter if everybody else had behaved like an adult. But, man, he sure looked like he was on his way.

Verlander had pitched seven no-hit innings. He had thrown just 91 pitches. He was hitting triple digits on the radar gun.

His breaking ball was barely visible, let alone hittable. This was Verlander in full, seemingly unstoppable.

Unfortunately, the foolishness was already percolating.

Magglio Ordonez had hit a home run inside the left foul pole in the third inning and watched the ball clear the fence before he began his trot. Ordonez said later, “I was making sure it was a fair ball and I started running.”

I believe him. Alas, Angels pitcher Jered Weaver did not. Weaver responded by trying to expand Ordonez’s vocabulary.

Ordonez said, “If you get mad because somebody hits a home run against you ... you gotta take it like a man.”

Yes, you do. The Tigers had the moral high ground, and Carlos Guillen promptly pulled them off it. Guillen took Weaver deep, then stood admiring his home run, and stared at Weaver and pointed toward the fence. He did everything but give Weaver the finger. I’ve seen still-life paintings that moved faster than Guillen. “We’re all teammates,” Guillen said afterward. “Not because Magglio is from Venezuela (like Guillen). Somebody put down my teammate.”

So what?

Call him an idiot after the game.

Don’t embarrass yourself like that.

“I’ve never showed anybody up in this game,” Weaver said. “I respected those guys. I thought they respected me. I just felt I got disrespected.”

Weaver responded by respectfully throwing a pitch over Alex Avila’s head. (“I had a feeling he was gonna throw one at me,” Avila said. “I was just hoping it wasn’t near my head.”) Weaver was ejected, of course, and could be suspended.

Meanwhile, Justin Verlander was still trying to throw a no-hitter.

The game had unraveled. Thanks to the Weaver ejection, the bottom of the seventh had taken forever — when a pitcher is ejected, the reliever gets a million warmup pitches.

And the Angels opened the eighth inning by trying to bunt. I don’t have a problem with that. The Angels are in the pennant race, they were down only 3-0, and speed is a big part of their game. But now Verlander was ticked.

And I think Verlander started to get a bit rattled. Who wouldn’t? It’s hard enough to pitch a no-hitter under normal circumstances. Verlander fielded the bunt and made a throwing error. (Nothing in sports makes me shake my head like pitchers making throwing errors.) Two batters later, Don Kelly threw the ball late to Verlander on a rundown and the Angels scored.

Verlander struck out Howie Kendrick, but Maicer Izturis broke up the no-hitter with a clean single. The inning should have been over; Verlander later wondered if he would have pitched Izturis differently to start the ninth.

We’ll never know. Hey, the Tigers won the game. Verlander has already pitched two no-hitters, and I suspect he will throw more. He is that gifted. It’s just a shame that one of the memorable games of the season turned into a lesson in how not to behave. ● Angels-Tigers game story on page 10B

COMMENTARY

NEW YORK — Stuck in prison and his NFL career derailed, Plaxico Burress insisted he’d be back one day.

Rex Ryan and the New York Jets are giving him that second chance.

“I’m just grateful,” a confident yet humble Burress said Sunday night. “I’m excited about the opportunity, and I’m going to give them everything I’ve got because they put their trust in me to be able to come in and contribute and have an impact.”

The former Super Bowl star with the Giants signed a one-year deal with the Jets on Sunday after recently being released from prison after serving 20 months on a gun charge. Burress, who turns 34 on Aug. 12, caught the game-winning touchdown in the Giants’ upset of the unbeaten New England Patriots in the 2008 Super Bowl, before his career derailed after he accidentally shot himself in a New York nightclub later that year.

Burress “When something’s taken away from you that you love, you know you love it more,” he said. “You learn that playing in this business is definitely a privilege. I definitely miss being away from the game and the guys and being able to compete every Sunday with the best athletes in the world.”

Now, the Jets are hoping Burress can revive his career the way Michael Vick did with the Eagles.

Vick served 18 months in prison for his involvement in a dogfighting ring before returning to football in 2009. He was eased back into things by the Eagles before taking over as the starting quarterback last year and capping a terrific season by being selected as the AP’s Comeback Player of the Year.

In other deals Sunday: ■ The AL East-leading Red Sox picked up Bedard after a deal for Rich Harden fell through late Saturday. Six prospects were involved in a three-team, seven-player trade involving the Los Angeles Dodgers.

■ The St. Louis Cardinals acquired Furcal, a two-time All-Star shortstop, from the Dodgers for Double-A outfielder Alex Castellanos.

■ Texas further bolstered its bullpen a day after adding Baltimore right-hander Koji Uehara by dealing for Adams, San Diego’s stellar setup man.

■ Atlanta made a move to keep up with the NL East-leading Phillies, getting Bourn from the Astros, who also sent Pence to Philadelphia on Friday night.

The Astros received outfielder Jordan Schafer and three minor-league pitchers, but the Braves didn’t give up any of their top prospects.

AUTO RACING Menard pulls upset at Brickyard

INDIANAPOLIS — Paul Menard became NASCAR’s newest first-time winner Sunday with an upset victory at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, a track steeped in tradition for his family.

The first half of the race was dominated by drivers with the strongest cars. But when debris cautions jumbled up the pit cycles, the Brickyard 400 turned into a race of pure strategy.

Menard and his Richard Childress Racing team played it brilliantly, as crew chief Slugger Labbe had Menard give the lead up to defending race winner Jamie McMurray in an effort to save fuel. Certain McMurray didn’t have enough gas to make it to the finish, Labbe then turned his attention to Jeff Gordon, who fell 12 seconds behind after a late fuel stop but was slicing his way through the field.

Although Gray, 22, is majoring in agricultural leadership and development, he considers himself a history buff when it comes to football.

“I am,” he said. “When you get a chance to watch the NFL Network any time they’re showing great running backs or great players, you see Gale

starting to handle the ball a lot more. He shoots it well, plays with a lot of confidence. The thing I like the most when I saw him develop over the summer was attacking the rim, putting it on the floor and getting to the basket and not just settling for three-pointers.”

Goolsby said Pritchard, the son of former KU great Kevin Pritchard, has heard from Air Force and Oral Roberts.

“I don’t know what offers will be there (as his senior year progresses), but I think something for sure will play out for him,” Goolsby said.

Another Pump N Run player who didn’t play in the final because of injury is Thomas Diaz, a 6-5 senior from Seabury, who is known for his driving ability and defense.

Duffy said it would not have mattered when Yost told him because he warms up quickly.

“I’m pretty microwaveable,” he said. “You give me 30 minutes, and I’ll be ready.

Today was a really good win for this team. Our bullpen went four good innings, and we ended up winning the road trip.”

Yost isn’t sure when Davies (1-9, 6.75 ERA) will pitch again.

“It bothers him playing catch, and it bothers him when he tries to extend on his fastball,” Yost said. “So we thought it was best to go ahead and skip him. We’ll reevaluate it (today) and see where we’re at.”

Sayers. He’s the guy that started a lot of things that not too many guys know about.

He’s exciting to watch even now.”

Since his first flirtation with Sayers’ film, Gray has become one of the top college running backs in the country.

Last season, in an emergency type of role, Gray rushed for 1,133 yards and 12 TDs in seven starts while helping lead the Aggies to a 9-3 season. After starting the year 3-3, A&M ripped off six straight wins before falling to LSU in the Cotton Bowl. During that stretch, Gray delivered seven straight 100-yard games.

“Certainly Cyrus finished the season on somewhat of a tear,” A&M coach Mike Sherman said. “And we want to see him pick up where he left off.”

Gray, who admits he knows

Sayers more as a Chicago Bear than a Kansas Jayhawk, visited KU before signing with A&M. On his visit, he met Sayers briefly.

“He was a great guy, and you could definitely see that he might still have it,” Gray said.

“It was great meeting him.”

So, after meeting his hero, how was it possible for Gray to turn down Kansas?

“I’m in a good spot, and it all came down to being closer to home so my parents could see me play more,” he said. “Ever since I’ve been at A&M, they’ve been at every game.”

Gray and the Aggies will open the season Sept. 4 against SMU. A&M will play host to the Jayhawks on Nov. 19, when Gray hopes to get one more chance to visit with Sayers.

“That would be amazing,” he said.

He’s expected to land at a midmajor college.

The K.C. tournament completed a hectic month of July for Pump N Run, which competed at two tournaments in K.C., one in Indianapolis and one in Las Vegas in a 20-day span. Players who distinguished themselves included: Gavin Thurman, 6-7 forward, Wichita Heights; Mason Wedel, 6-1, De Soto; and Jalen Love, 6-2, Wichita East.

Nationally, Goolsby has been impressed with three players with KU on their lists: Mitch McGary (6-10, Brewster Academy, Wolfeboro, N.H.); Shabazz Muhammad (6-6, Bishop Gorman, Las Vegas); and Marcus Smart (6-4, Marcus High, Flower Mound, Texas).

“One you fall in love with at how hard he plays consistently is Marcus Smart,” Goolsby said. “The way he kind of puts those guys on his back. To win the championship (at adidas Super 64) in Las Vegas was

pretty impressive. The guy doesn’t really have a position.

He just gets so much stuff done on the floor. He wills his team to win.”

Veteran AAU coach Goolsby said he’s looking forward to a bright future with Pump N Run. The landscape may change a bit starting next school year.

“I am hoping the NCAA makes changes to make it shorter tournaments on the weekends in July and open up April a couple of weekends,” Goolsby said. “It would benefit everybody. I think it really will help the kids. They mentally won’t get so fatigued and physically as well. It’s tough when they have to play 20 days in July. By the end of it, especially after Vegas or Orlando (last week), the kids are really tired. We’re fortunate because our last tournament is back home. Guys are a little more energized playing back home.”

off the second. Gordon’s home run came with one out in the fifth.

Kansas City scored an unearned run in the fourth.

Francoeur drew a one-out walk and went to third on Mike Moustakas’ double over first. Francoeur scored when Kosuke Fukudome’s throw from right field skipped away from second baseman Jason Kipnis. Fukudome was charged with an error.

Billy Butler hit a sacrifice fly in the eighth, while Alcides Escobar added an RBI single in the ninth, capping a 14pitch at-bat against Tony Sipp.

“Escobar’s at-bat in the ninth inning was huge to give us that little extra cushion that we needed,” Yost said. “A 14-pitch at-bat is a heck of an at-bat. He just kept battling, battling, battling until he got a pitch that he could drive up the middle.”

Pittsburgh than hall of famer Dan Marino did as a Panther.

He was out of football entirely in 2008, then was picked up

by Pittsburgh in 2009. He was listed as the Steelers’ third QB in one game, but still got released.

The Chiefs signed him in 2010 and gave him what is so far his only NFL experience.

He appeared in two games and hit four of six passes for 35 yards. He also carried twice for five yards.

This may be his last and best opportunity to gain a foothold in the NFL. Not only is his competition a rookie, but his new quarterback coach, Jim Zorn, was a lefthanded passer just like him.

But by refusing to discuss it, she is trying to sweep the problem under the rug, which won’t work.

Dear Annie: I live in a 32-

‘Moby Dick’ assumes viewer hasn’t read book Some books you just have to read. Like F. Scott Fitzgerald’s “The Great Gatsby,” Herman Melville’s “Moby Dick” has suffered any number of unsatisfying screen adaptations. A book so filled with strange ruminations and poetry just doesn’t hold up when boiled down for action.

Encore’s two-night “Moby Dick” miniseries (7 p.m., concludes Tuesday) tries to domesticate Captain Ahab (John Hurt), supplying him with a wife (Gillian Anderson) and a precocious son. Look for Ethan Hawke as Starbuck. The always intense Eddie Marsan (“Little Dorrit,” “HappyGo- Lucky”) plays Stubb, and Raoul Trujillo (“Apocalypto”) is the mystical Queequeg. Charlie Cox plays the novel’s narrator, and when you hear him casually say, “Call me Ishmael” to Pip (Daniyah Ysrayl) in an opening scene, you know this miniseries is not off to a promising start. ● Ashley makes her big decision as “The Bachelorette” (7 p.m., ABC) concludes in Fiji, of all places. For those with short memories, an “After the Final Rose” (9 p.m.) recap will look back at a “journey” that included some kind of fight between Ashley and her sister and came down to a choice between men called Ben F. and J.P. ● A film about an Islamic variation on a national spelling bee, “Koran by Heart” (8 p.m., HBO) documents an annual contest involving more than 100 young scholars from more than 70 countries. Filmmaker Greg Barker follows three 10-year-old contestants who have dedicated their lives to memorizing and reciting the Koran. The young people offer viewers a glance at a wide spectrum of Islamic societies, from modern and secular to austerely fundamental. ● “This Illegal American Life” (8 p.m., Current) looks at the uncertainties facing undocumented young people, from UCLA undergraduates to migrant workers.

Tonight’s other highlights ● The 2004 documentary “Nine Innings From Ground Zero” (5:45 p.m., HBO) looks at the role baseball played in soothing a wounded city after the 2001 terrorist attacks. ● A baker’s dozen return to “Hell’s Kitchen” (7 p.m., Fox). ● Up in the air on “Eureka” (7 p.m., Syfy). ● “The Godfather” (7 p.m., AMC) kicks off a week of mob-related movies on AMC. Former New York Mayor (and mob-busting federal prosecutor) Rudolph Giuliani hosts. ● A lawsuit sparks homicides on “Law & Order: Criminal Intent” (8 p.m., NBC). ● Eight compete on “MasterChef” (8 p.m., Fox). ● Kathy Ireland serves as guest judge on “Design Star” (8 p.m., HGTV). ● Jeri Ryan guest-stars on “Warehouse 13” (8 p.m., Syfy). ● The search for a missing boy on “The Closer” (8 p.m., TNT). ● “Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations” (8 p.m., Travel) explores the cuisine of Spain. ● Discovery’s Shark Week continues with originals “Rogue Shark” (8 p.m.) and “Summer of the Shark” (9 p.m.). ● A Rosetta Stone on “Alphas” (9 p.m., Syfy). ● “Unsung” (9 p.m., TV One) profiles The Sylvers.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS For Monday, Aug. 1: Don't underestimate your capabilities. You often think your fussiness over details isn't an asset. But it is. You have the ability to carry a broad concept into reality this year because of your attention to detail.

You have a strong mix of precision and broad vision.

You can understand big concepts yet deal with the details. If you are single, you could attract someone quite interesting. This person might be quite understated. If you are attached, once more, the two of you juggle the different roles involved in a union. VIRGO can be critical.

Dear Annie: My wife and I are both 30 and have been married for five years. We have a toddler.

The problem is, over the past few years, my wife has cut down sex to roughly once every couple of months. I do what I can to keep her happy and have even bargained with her to get sex by offering to take her out to eat at her favorite restaurant or giving back massages, but she won’t discuss it. As soon as I bring it up, she gets angry, and it puts her in a bad mood.

My wife doesn’t seem to care about my needs at all, and I can’t help but resent her for doing this to me. The rest of our marriage is solid, but this one issue has me considering divorce. I don’t want to cheat on her, but I want to be with someone who cares about me. I can deal with sex as infrequently as once a month, but there are stretches where it’s been half a year.

I could understand if she had a medical problem, but she doesn’t. I’m being pushed to the brink. My wife has no interest in talking to a counselor. She says no one else needs to know about our problems. Should I consider counseling on my own? Is there a different way of having this conversation so she

Verlander wins; Weaver seethes The Associated Press

Tigers 3, Angels 2 DETROIT — Justin Verlander came within four outs of another no-hitter, outpitching an angry Jered Weaver as Detroit beat the Angels on Sunday in a testy game that grew particularly heated in the late innings.

Maicer Izturis lined an RBI single to left field with two outs in the eighth for the Angels’ only hit. Verlander (15-5) was trying for his third career no-hitter and second this season.

Weaver (14-5) was ejected for throwing a pitch over Alex Avila’s head in the seventh, right after Carlos Guillen showboated on a solo home run.

Guillen flipped his bat, posed at the plate and skipped a few steps sideways, prompting Weaver to yell at him before Guillen rounded the bases.

Sensing trouble was coming, plate umpire Hunter Wendelstedt warned both benches. But Weaver threw the next pitch near Avila’s head and was quickly ejected along with Los Angeles manager Mike Scioscia.

In a marquee matchup of All-Star aces, Verlander allowed two unearned runs in eight innings.

Freddy Garcia (10-7) struck out six in six innings to send the Yankees to 22 games over .500, their highest point of the season.

New York shortstop Derek Jeter left after getting hit by a pitch, but X-rays only showed a bruised right middle finger.

Rays 8, Mariners 1 S E A T T L E — Tampa Bay’s Jeremy Hellickson held Seattle to a run and five hits over seven-plus innings to become the first AL rookie with 10 wins.

Hellickson retired the next three batters on a flyout and two foulouts.

Hellickson is the quickest Tampa Bay rookie to 10 wins since Rolando Arrojo reached the mark on June 27, 1998.

Cubs 6, Cardinals 3 ST. L OUIS — Starlin Castro and Marlon Byrd had key hits as Chicago broke up Jake Westbrook’s perfect game with a four-run sixth inning and held off the Cardinals to avoid a three-game sweep.

Lance Berkman’s three-run homer in the bottom of the sixth made it interesting for the Cardinals.
