Blue-green algae traveling down Kaw

released from Milford Lake moves downstream along the Kansas River.

On Aug. 31, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers released water from the bulging Milford Lake reservoir, which had been plagued by dangerous levels of blue-green algae toxins for much of the summer. Two days later, USGS began testing water at 14 different sites along the Kansas River for the algae, known scientifically as cyanobacteria.

At that point, water released from Milford Lake

— Jeanette Klamm, projects manager for the city of Lawrence utilities department hadn’t made it past the Wamego and Belvue area, said Jennifer Graham, a research hydrologist with the USGS who has studied blue-green algae across the country. But the preliminary data showed that the toxins — and taste and odor problems — prevalent on Milford Lake were being transported downstream.

Graham said that by ear-

ly Tuesday, the peak flow from Milford Lake had likely reached Kansas City. The USGS took more water samples Thursday and will have those results by next Tuesday.

Some Lawrence residents noticed a change in their water quality shortly after the Milford Lake water was believed to have passed through Lawrence.

Among them was Sarah Scoular, who on Tuesday evening was making a protein shake when she smelled that earthy, musky smell that was so common in the city’s water supply late last summer.

“I was pouring water into blender and I smelled dirt,” Scoular said. “I said it’s happening again. It is a very distinct dirt smell.”

That musky taste hasn’t left, Scoular said.

The taste and odor isn’t currently as bad as last year, and Scoular said she believes she is more sensitive to it than most people.

KU Endowment raises record $153.2 million — and explains why campaign name is not unique Cornell has been using ‘Far Above’ for 5 years

As the Kansas University Endowment Association announced it had raised a record $153.2 million, it also announced the name of an upcoming comprehensive fundraising campaign.

WASHINGTON — Attacking a deepening jobs crisis, President Barack Obama challenged a reluctant Congress Thursday night to urgently pass a larger-than-expected $450 billion plan to “jolt an economy that has stalled.”

He urged lawmakers to slash Social Security taxes for tens of millions of Americans and for almost every business to encourage hiring.

“Stop the political circus,” an animated Obama told a joint session of Congress in a nationally televised speech.

Over and over he implored lawmakers to “pass this jobs bill.”

Open to discussion but making no promises, Republican House Speaker John Boehner said Obama’s ideas would be considered but the president should give heed to Republicans’ as well. “It’s my hope that we can work together,” he said.

In announcing a plan heavy on the tax cuts that Republicans traditionally love, Obama sought to achieve multiple goals: offer a plan that could actually get through a deeply divided Please see JOBS, page 2A

Kansas Republicans want to boost employment rates without spending

By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

TOPEKA — Kansas’ all-Republican congressional delegation saw little to like Thursday in President Barack Obama’s $447 billion plan that he said will produce thousands of jobs and put more money in the pockets of American workers.

“It will provide a jolt to an economy that is stalled,” Obama said.

The Democrat urged Congress to put aside political differences and help Americans as quickly as possible.

“You should pass this right away,” he said several times.

U.S. Sen. Pat Roberts, R-Kan., opposed the extra spending.

“Creating jobs doesn’t have to cost our country a dime,” Roberts said. “Instead,

Kansas

R-Fowler, criticized Obama’s plan, saying, “Spending money we do not have on programs that do not work is no solution.”

Huelskamp called Obama’s proposal another stimulus plan.

“The White House should throw out the copier: Obama Stimulus One failed, and so would Stimulus Two,” he said. In 2009, Congress approved an $825 billion stimulus plan.

But Huelskamp recited several of the items that Obama said were needed to help the economy recover.

Those included passage of trade agreements, simplifying the tax code and making more spending cuts.

The Kansas Chamber of Commerce said Obama should reduce taxes, repeal the federal health reform law, end union control of the National Labor Relations Board and “reverse the government’s addiction to overregulation.”

Obama’s proposal calls for cutting payroll taxes that workers pay from 4.2 percent to 3.1 percent and from 6.2 percent to 3.1 percent for businesses. Businesses would also get a tax break for hiring new workers.

His plan also would spend $25 billion to modernize 35,000 schools, and $35 billion to prevent layoffs of up to 280,000 teachers.

He said he would pay for the plan through more spending cuts, reforming the tax code so that the wealthiest Americans “pay their fair share,” and making adjustments to Medicare and Medicaid.

describing Obama’s proposal as “more of the same.” Moran added, “I had hoped to hear the President outline a different approach to get our economy back on sound footing — rather than more of the same failed policies.”

U.S. Rep. Lynn Jenkins, R-Topeka, whose district includes western Douglas County, said there was agreement on both sides of the aisle to approve the trade agreements and reform the tax code.

She said she rejected more spending to create jobs, but added, “the most important development of the night was that all of Washington seems to finally agree that the top priority of the federal government needs to be addressing this job crisis in order to get our economy moving again.”

U.S. Rep. Kevin Yoder, ROverland Park, whose district covers eastern Douglas County, said he was disappointed that Obama “decided to double down on more stimulus spending and greater government growth.”

But Yoder said he appreciated Obama’s emphasis on small-business owners and entrepreneurs.

“Both Republicans and Democrats have placed job-creation proposals on the table that merit consideration. I look forward to joining members of both parties as we work together to support policies that rebuild America and restore our economic prosperity,” he said.

Banned synthetic pot hits streets KANSAS CITY, MO. (AP) — Police in Kansas and Missouri report a multitude of synthetic marijuana busts after lawmakers banned the herb-based product that was once sold openly in coffeehouses, gas stations and convenience stores.

In Kansas City, police reported that investigators recovered more than 12 pounds of the substance during an early August violent-crime initiative.

The Kansas City Star reported that an earlier raid yielded 10,000 packets of synthetic pot, each weighing 3 to 5 grams. And a citizen complaint recently led to the seizure of 1,000 grams at a retail establishment, said Maj. Jan Zimmerman, commander of the narcotics and vice division of the Kansas City Police Department.

“We’re just raking it in,” Kansas City police Sgt. Brad Dumit said. “We’re seeing it all over the place.”

Johnson County Sheriff’s Department Deputy Tom Erickson said the substance is showing up in all the typical places where illegal drugs are found.

Police and public health experts say that users seeking the more benign high associated with marijuana may be unprepared for the synthetic version, most commonly known as K2 or K3. Users describe a more intense but shorter high, with effects lasting about 20 minutes as opposed to several hours.

Lawmakers in both Kansas and Missouri last year outlawed chemicals used to produce it. But synthetic pot once again proliferated after

slight variations were made to its chemical makeup that weren’t covered by the law.

“It’s hard to stay ahead of designer drugs,” said Sen. Vicki Schmidt, R-Topeka.

“People designing them can be very creative.”

This year, lawmakers went one step further, approving new laws covering the entire class of chemical compounds that were being used to circumvent the previous laws.

“I think the new law covers all of those variables,” Zimmerman said of the new Missouri law. “The new legislation closes that loophole.”

Under the beefed up Missouri and Kansas laws, distribution and manufacture of the banned substances is a felony. Possession of small amounts is considered a misdemeanor.

said Thursday that city officials haven’t heard any complaints from water customers about taste and odor problems. While the city does test daily for water quality issues caused by algae, it doesn’t test for toxic cyanobacteria.

The algae isn’t always toxic, but at certain levels it can be deadly to humans and animals.

Even if there were high levels, Klamm said, the toxins are filtered out at the water treatment plant.

“Because they were detecting cyanobacteria toxins in the reservoir water coming into the Kansas River doesn’t necessarily mean they are making it past our treatment process,” Klamm said.

“There isn’t any indication that our treatment process isn’t removing them.”

Lawrence, along with the Topeka water department and WaterOne, which supplies water to Johnson County, have met with the USGS to talk about high cyanobacteria levels.

“They are looking at their drinking water and making changes to the treatment process,” Graham said.

Congress, speed hiring in a nation where 14 million are out of work, shore up public confidence in his leadership and put Republicans on the spot to take action.

The fate of economy will define Obama’s re-election bid, but he sought to dismiss that element as political fodder that means nothing to hurting Americans.

Obama never estimated how many jobs would be created by his plan, which also includes new federal spending for construction, hiring and an extension of jobless benefits for the long-term unemployed. Despite his promise that it would all be paid for, he has not yet released the details on how.

His message was unmistakable to the point of repetition, as he told Congress more than 15 times in one way or another to act quickly. That was meant as direct challenge by a Democratic president to the Republicans running the House to get behind his plan, especially on tax cuts, or be tarred as standing in the way.

The urgency of the jobs crisis is as pronounced as it’s been since the early days of Obama’s term. Employers added zero jobs last month. A whopping number of Americans — about eight in 10 — think the country is headed in the wrong direction and Obama’s approval ratings are on the decline.

In the House chamber, Obama received a warm response but then the usual political pattern took hold, Republicans often sitting in silence on the applause lines that had Democrats roaring.

Boehner had chummy moments with Vice President Joe Biden at his side before the speech but was somber

over Obama’s shoulder as the president spoke.

“The people of this country work hard to meet their responsibilities. The question tonight is whether we’ll meet ours,” Obama said. “The question is whether, in the face of an ongoing national crisis, we can stop the political circus and actually do something to help the economy.”

The newest and boldest element of Obama’s plan would cut the Social Security payroll tax both for tens of millions of workers and for employers, too.

For individuals, that tax has been shaved from 6.2 percent to 4.2 percent for this year but is to go back up again without action by Congress.

Obama wants to deepen the cut to 3.1 percent for workers.

Obama would also apply the payroll tax cut to employers, halving their taxes to 3.1 percent on their first $5 million in payroll. Businesses that hire new workers or give raises to those they already employ would get an even bigger benefit: On payroll increases up to $50 million they would pay no Social Security tax.

Obama proposed spending to fix schools and roads, hire local teachers and police and extend unemployment benefits. He proposed a tax credit for businesses that hire people out of work for six months or longer, plus other tax relief aimed as snaring bipartisan support in a time of divided government.

The White House put the price tag of Obama’s plan at $447 billion, with about $253 billion in tax cuts and $194 billion in federal spending.

The president said he would make his case to the public and will waste no time taking his sales pitch on the road. His first stop will be on Friday at the University of Richmond in the Virginia congressional district of House majority Leader Eric Cantor, a frequent critic of the president’s policies.

And Seuferling pointed out that one of KU’s chancellors, Deane Waldo Malott, left KU to become Cornell’s sixth president.

“There’s a lot of similar campaign names out there,” he said, noting that two other recent KU campaigns, KU First and Campaign Kansas, both have many similar names at other universities.

Officials chase ‘credible’ bomb plot

By Mark Fagan mfagan@ljworld.com

U.S. officials said Thursday they were investigating a credible but unconfirmed threat that al-Qaida was planning to use a car bomb to target bridges or tunnels in New York City or Washington to coincide with the 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks, the first tip of an “active plot” around that date.

The Homeland Security Department said the threat is credible and specific, but unconfirmed. The nation’s terror alert level has not changed, but raising it was under consideration Thursday night.

Law enforcement officials were investigating three people who recently entered the U.S. The threat was received by the U.S. intelligence community late Wednesday night, officials said.

“There is specific, credible but unconfirmed threat information,” said Janice Fedarcyk, the assistant director in charge of the FBI’s New York division.

“As we always do before important dates like the anniversary of 9/11, we will undoubtedly get more reporting in the coming days.”

Security has been enhanced around the country in the weeks leading up to the 10th anniversary. Law enforcement officials have been wary, particularly after information gleaned from Osama bin Laden’s compound in May indicated that al-Qaida had considered attacking the U.S. on the anniversary and other important dates.

The threat came in a single piece of information and was so specific — and came at such a time of already heightened alert — that it could not be ignored. The officials described the threat to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive security matters.

The written record is now set in the legal battle over planned completion of the South Lawrence Trafficway, setting the stage for attorneys on both sides of the issue to speak directly to three appeals court judges.

At stake: Whether the $192 million project can continue as designed, with construction contractors to be hired in late

$2M sought as Larned State Hospital nearing capacity

Lee drenches Northeast The remnants of Tropical Storm Lee poured water on top of the already soaked Northeast on Thursday, closing hundreds of roads and forcing evacuation orders for more than 100,000 people from the Susquehanna River’s worst flooding in nearly 40 years.

Most of the evacuations were ordered in and around Wilkes-Barre, where the levee system is just high enough to hold back the river if it crests at the predicted level. Even if the levees hold, 800 to 900 unprotected homes were in danger. If they fail, thousands of buildings could be lost.

“This is a scary situation,” said Stephen Bekanich, Luzerne County’s emergency management director. He and other officials were confident the levees would work but sought volunteers to lay sandbags on both sides of the river.

In Binghamton, N.Y., a city of about 45,000, the Susquehanna coursed into the streets and climbed halfway up lampposts at a downtown plaza. Mayor Matt Ryan said it was the city’s worst flooding since the flood walls were built in the 1930s and ‘40s.

By Alex Garrison

Power outage hits up to 5M A major power outage knocked out electricity to up to 5 million people in California, Arizona and Mexico on Thursday, bringing San Diego and Tijuana to a standstill and leaving people sweltering in the late-summer heat in the surrounding desert.

Two nuclear reactors were offline after losing electricity, but officials said there was no danger to the public or workers.

San Diego bore the brunt of the blackout that started shortly before 4 p.m. PDT; most of the nation’s eighth-largest city was darkened. All outgoing flights from San Diego’s Lindbergh Field were grounded and police stations were using generators to accept emergency calls across the area.

Parts of Orange County regained power Thursday evening, but officials said most people would remain in the dark through the night.

The outage was likely caused by an employee removing a piece of monitoring equipment that was causing problems at a power substation in southwest Arizona, officials said. The power loss should have been limited to the Yuma, Ariz., area. The power company, Arizona Public Service, was investigating why the outage wasn’t contained.

“This was not a deliberate act. The employee was just switching out a piece of equipment that was problematic,” said Dan Froetscher, a vice president at APS. Homes and businesses were darkened from southern parts of Orange County to San Diego to Yuma. It also affected cities south of the border across much of the state of northern Baja. Border officials said crossings into California are open.

“It feels like you’re in an oven and you can’t escape,” said Rosa Maria Gonzales, a spokeswoman with the Imperial Irrigation District in California’s sizzling eastern desert. She said it was about 115 degrees when the power went out for about 150,000 of its customers.

An estimated 36 million Americans suffer from some form of seasonal allergies, but how do you to tell when an occasional annoyance requires

medical attention?

Warren Frick, a specialist at Asthma, Allergy and Rheumatology Associates, 346 Maine, said mild cases — marked by inflammation of the eyes and nose — can be treated with over-thecounter remedies. Moderate to severe cases, on the other hand, require prescription drugs as over-the-counter aids do little to help, and complications such as sinus infections and even asthma may develop if the in-

flammation is untreated.

Frick said that if the typical symptoms of irritation in the nose and eyes is accompanied by wheezing, coughing or tightness of breath, it may be seasonal allergies accompanied by the more severe ailment of asthma.

“Asthma is really just allergies in the lungs,” he said.

The buck stops here: Hunters, officials discuss options to curb deer population

By Christine Metz cmetz@ljworld.com

From crossbow enthusiasts to muzzleloaders, hunters of all kinds had plenty of ideas on how the Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism could better manage its deer hunting season.

More than 40 hunters and landowners met at the Dole Institute of Politics on Thursday night as part of a listening tour the KDWPT is holding throughout the state as it looks at ways to modify the hunting season.

Currently, between 500,000 and 600,000 deer are thought to live in Kansas. It’s a number that is increasing in Douglas County and much of the state.

With those rising numbers come more conflicts between humans and deer, such as vehicle accidents and crop damage. Last year, Kansas hunters spent 1.2 million days hunting and killed nearly 100,000 deer. But that might not be enough to manage deer population.

“Harvest is up a little bit. But as far as controlling deer num-

2011

bers, controlling them is an uphill battle,” said Lloyd Fox, who is the big-game program coordinator for the KDWPT. Fox and others at Thursday’s meeting said the main issue is having access to the land to hunt the deer. That’s especially true for Unit 19, the region that encompasses Douglas County.

“Unit 19 is still in a small land ownership pattern,” Fox said.

“Having access to effective hunting locations for the hunters that

TOPEKA — The state’s sexual predator treatment program has nearly reached its capacity, forcing officials to seek more than $2 million for an expansion, it was announced Thursday.

“This population continues to grow,” said Robert Siedlecki Jr., Kansas Department of Social and Rehabilitation Services secretary.

“SRS has an obligation to Siedlecki the people of Kansas to keep these individuals separated from society at large and to house them in buildings that are both safe and secure.”

There are 214 people in the program, which is located at Larned State Hospital. An estimated 18 new residents are admitted each year, according to SRS. Enacted in 1994, the program has been controversial because it indefinitely holds convicted sex offenders past their prison sentences if they have been civilly committed under the law because they have been deemed a continuing threat to the community.

SRS outlined a plan to remodel a building at Larned, which will provide space for 34 more people at a cost of $2 million.

The agency also wants to remodel facilities on the Parsons State Hospital grounds to house eight people who are transitioning for possible release. That will cost about $200,000.

Efficiency programs available before cold weather arrives

By Christine Metz cmetz@ljworld.com

People who were relying on the state’s Efficiency Kansas program to ready their homes for winter might have other options available.

This summer, the state pulled $22 million from Efficiency Kansas, a program that provided low-interest to no-interest loans so homeowners could make upgrades to lower their energy bills.

The loans covered everything from replacing aging furnaces to caulking windows.

More than 100 people are waiting for their loan application to be processed as the Kansas Energy Office looks for alternate sources of funding. For those wanting to make the upgrades before the cold weather sets in, Tony Hoch, who is with the city of Lawrence, said other programs are offering assistance.

Emergency and Furnace Loan With money from Community Development Block Grants, the city offers emergency loans for everything from replacing furnaces to fixing rotting roofs.

The interest-free loan, up to $5,000, doesn’t have to be repaid until the homeowner leaves the home or no longer owns it. The limit for mobile homes: $2,500.

“It is essentially to help with emergency repairs and to correct a hazard, like in the case of a furnace with a leaky heat exchanger that could be dangerous,” Hoch said.

To qualify, a homeowner would have to earn 80 percent or less of the annual me-

infections, which start to become more common during this time of year, too. But infections typically cause aches and chills where mild allergies do not.

For mild allergy sufferers, finding relief from the effects of ragweed and pollen in the air is often a process of trial and error, as they try different antihistamines, drops and physical methods such as salt water sinus baths.

It can be a costly venture to guess and check which medications work, but pharmacist

tion in choosing a 32nd Street alignment for completing the trafficway.

The highway would connect with the existing trafficway at Iowa Street, at the southern edge of town, and run east through the wetlands to Kansas Highway 10 near Noria Road.

The Federal Highway Administration filed its final legal brief last month. The

dian income. Under federal guidelines in Douglas County, a single person couldn’t make more than $39,550 and a family of four could make no more than $56,500.

For more information: lawrenceks.org/pds/housing_programs.

Weatherization program Homeowners and renters also might want to consider a weatherization program through East Central Kansas Economic Opportunity Corp., even if part of the program’s funding source is about to end.

The weatherization program requires a home energy audit to determine which upgrades would save the most energy.

But unlike Efficiency Kansas, ECKAN’s weatherization program covers all upgrade costs and it is geared toward low-income families, seniors and people with disabilities.

For nearly three years, the program has been largely operating with $10 million received through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. That money is set to run out in March.

Alex Thompson, ECKAN’s weatherization director, hopes funding will be available through grants from the U.S. Department of Energy and the state’s Low-Income Energy Assistance Program.

“We anticipate cuts. We just don’t know how much

those cuts are going to be,” Thompson said.

With several hundred people on the waiting list, Thompson said homeowners and renters could still apply for the program. But it could take a year before ECKAN will get to new applications.

With the stimulus money, Thompson said that 1,200 to 1,300 homes received an average of $6,500.

“It was a very good program,” he said. “There were a ton of people who got to take advantage of it and we are still proceeding ... until our money is gone.”

To qualify, applicants must make 75 percent or less of the annual median income, which in Douglas County under federal guidelines would be about $37,000 for a single person and $52,950 for a family of four.

“Our main objective is to reduce the amount of unwanted air that comes into a home,” Thompson said.

For more information: eckan.org/weatherization.html or 785-242-6413.

Home Energy Audits Efficiency Kansas is still offering a home energy audit valued up to $600 for only $100 — until the end of the month.

Certified energy auditors help find areas in a home that are leaking energy and then evaluate what can provide the most energy savings.

Jeff Sigler of Sigler Pharmacy, 4525 W. Sixth St., says it’s the only way to combat HEALTH symptoms for these mild allergens.

“That’s why they call it ‘practicing’ medicine,” Sigler said.

Trying different over-thecounters carries little risk, except the drowsiness caused by some, such as Benadryl, which Sigler said works well to get rid of the symptoms but also is good at putting its users to sleep.

Sigler said he often recommends mild sufferers

try eating locally produced honey as a sort of homeopathic exposure treatment, hopefully building an increased immunity to the plant matter in the air that causes the allergies.

Mild symptoms will always be an issue for many throughout the country, Frick said. When no overthe-counter seems to provide relief, it’s time to see a doctor or nurse, but for the majority, topical solutions or oral antihistamines should, eventually, provide relief.

“Nobody’s holding any secret trick to ‘solving’ allergies,” he said.

brief maintains, among other things, that the route through the wetlands — in conjunction with plans for removing and rerouting adjacent roads, plus expanding the wetlands, providing for the area’s maintenance and creating an educational center — would be better for the wetlands overall.

In the brief, the highway administration noted that it already had determined that a route outside the wetlands, along a 42nd Street alignment, would not be prudent.

“Such an inquiry calls for judgment, for balancing, for

the practical settlement of disputes on which reasonable people will disagree,” the highway administration said in its brief. “FHWA’s conclusion ... is reasonable and should be upheld.”

want to hunt there, without that permission we can have all the seasons and permits out there, but this is private land.”

Ron Charity, a bow hunter from Olathe, said he’s driven down dirt roads asking “farmer after farmer” to hunt on their land.

“And I still haven’t gotten permission on a single property,” Charity said.

One man said that places he has hunted for 50 years now have leases on them so he can’t hunt there. In some cases, its small landowners not wanting hunters on their property, and in other instances it’s land where leases have been purchased by outfitters to accommodate outof-state hunters.

KDWPT Regional Wildlife Supervisor Roger Wolfe said the agency has tried to work with landowners to open their land to hunting, but it can be a hard sell, especially in eastern Kansas.

“The perception is out there of it being dangerous during rifle season. That’s not a reality. But it’s hard to convince (a landowner) to let someone hunt with a rifle on a 16-acre tract behind the house,” Wolfe said.

Jamie Howarter, who lives in Overland Park and hunts in Anderson County, said his family had to buy land so they could continue to hunt and wouldn’t have to ask permission.

“Not a lot of people have opportunity to be able to do so,” he said.

While many of the hunters agreed that more access to land is needed, they disagreed on how the KDWPT should change its seasons and permitting process.

Fox told the crowd the recommendations they had received from hunters, landowners, legislators and citizens revolved around wanting to provide more opportunities to young hunters, extending hunting seasons over holiday weekends when people had more time, and reducing the number of roadway accidents.

Here were some of the solutions hunters proposed Thursday night: ! Patrick Jankowski, a Eudora man who uses a muzzleloader to hunt, suggested making a primitive weapon season that combined bow hunting and muzzleloading without a scope. Jankowski said that as someone who hunts with a muzzleloader, he doesn’t feel safe hunting during rifle season — a sentiment that many bow hunters shared. ! Sean Miller, an avid hunter and Lecompton resident, asked if youth season for rifle hunting season could be extended to include the holiday season so young hunters could have a chance to hunt while school was out.

If it were over the Thanksgiving weekend, he said, the youth season should be con-

current with the existing bow hunting season. ! Some people had concerns that allowing rifle season too early in the season could reduce the quality of the deer herd and interfere with pheasant hunting. Several bow hunters said the state has far more trophy deer than other surrounding states because it doesn’t allow rifle hunting during rutting season. ! Several people recommended implementing a combo permit, which would allow hunters to harvest both a buck and a doe. In some instances, hunters suggested having a permit where a hunter would be required to kill a doe before a buck to better manage population numbers.

REPORT

• Kansas University Public Safety officers are investigating a report of a vehicle burglary that occurred between 8:40 a.m. and 1:15 p.m. Wednesday in lot 301 in the 2000 block of Becker Avenue. The driver’s-side window of a vehicle was broken, and a stereo system valued at $1,300 was taken, causing $1,100 in damage. A second vehicle burglary was reported nearby at the Park and Ride lot on West Campus on Wednesday alleged to have occurred at 10:10 a.m. after someone forced entry into a vehicle and stole an iPod, baseball bag, two baseball bats and a glove. Loss in that burglary was valued at $945.

• Two people were taken to Lawrence Memorial Hospital Thursday morning after a crash involving two vehicles on Iowa Street near Stratford Road, emergency dispatchers said.

The Journal-World does not print accounts of all police reports filed.

The newspaper generally reports: • Burglaries, only with a loss of $1,000 or more, unless there are unusual circumstances. To protect victims, we generally don’t identify them by name.

• The names and circumstances of people arrested, only after they are charged.

• Assaults and batteries, only if major injuries are reported.

• Holdups and robberies.

KNI gets Nonprofit agrees to stop using reprieve, ‘Purple Heart’ in its name “ for now

By Shaun Hittle

sdhittle@ljworld.com

By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

TOPEKA — Gov. Sam Brownback’s administration said Thursday it was abandoning its efforts, at least for now, to shut down the Kansas Neurological Institute.

The issue came up in a brief exchange during a meeting of the House-Senate Committee on State Building Construction.

SRS officials came before the committee to discuss the agency’s capital improvement plan and answer questions about the recent closings of several agency offices.

Rep. Bob Grant, D-Cherokee, asked what happened to Brownback’s proposal to close KNI, a state hospital for people with profound disabilities.

During the last legislative session, Brownback had sought to shut down the facility as one of many costcutting moves in the face of what was then an estimated $500 million state budget gap. A bipartisan group of legislators, however, rejected the proposal.

“The Legislature has spoken on that issue,” said Gary Haulmark, director of legislative affairs for SRS. He said that in conversations with the governor’s office, Brownback’s staff indicated no effort would be made this year on that front.

Grant said, “I just wanted to see if our voice was heard.” Haulmark answered, “It was.”

KNI, which is in Topeka, has about 155 residents.

Some disability rights groups have argued that moving residents to more community-based group homes would improve their quality of life, and that shutting down the facility would free up funds for other people with disabilities who are on waiting lists.

But supporters of KNI have said the residents couldn’t get the same quality of care in community-based groups that they now receive.

BRIEFLY Woman pleads on child endangerment A 25-year-old Lawrence woman Thursday morning pleaded no contest to two misdemeanor child endangerment charges.

Amy McGowan, a chief assistant Douglas County district attorney, said in court that prosecutors agreed to reduce two original felony aggravated child endangerment charges against Natasha A. Short. Prosecutors will ask District Judge Michael Malone to sentence Short to one year on probation as long as she follows recommendations from family services officials and the judge.

Last December, Short’s husband at the time— Bradley Ford, 30 — pleaded guilty to two counts of felony child abuse, and, in February, Malone sentenced him to serve two years and eight months in prison. Prosecutors had accused Ford of throwing the couple’s 6-week-old daughter onto a bed last September as she was crying. The baby bounced onto the floor, suffering broken bones. Ford was also convicted of choking his 6-year-old stepdaughter last September at the family’s residence in the 200 block of Pinecone Drive.

Prosecutors accused Short of placing the girls in danger by leaving them with Ford.

Prosecutors are asking Malone to order Short to serve one year in jail if she violates her probation terms. Malone will sentence Short on Oct. 20.

Tonganoxie-based nonprofit Purple Heart Veterans Foundation can no longer use the term “Purple Heart,” according to a consent decree and order filed in federal court Thursday.

The order settles a lawsuit filed by the Virginia-based Military Order of the Purple Heart Service Foundation alleging trademark infringement by the local nonprofit, operated by Tonganoxie man Andrew Gruber.

The lawsuit — filed Aug. 26 in U.S. District Court — alleged that Gruber’s organization was deceiving donors, who might believe that Gruber’s charity was aligned with the Military Order of the Purple Heart. Established in 1932, the Military Order of the Purple Heart assists veterans who have been awarded the Purple Heart, which is a military honor given to veterans killed or wounded in combat.

I think there’s a public goal. It was important that (the Military Order of the Purple Heart) stepped up and stopped this guy.”

— Timothy West, an attorney for the Military Order of the Purple Heart

In addition to discontinuing the use of the term “Purple Heart” within 15 days, Gruber — who founded his nonprofit in 2009 — also agreed to pay the Military Order of the Purple Heart $5,000.

In recent weeks, a JournalWorld investigation highlighted several concerns with Gruber and the nonprofit, mainly that only 11 cents of every dollar donated to the charity actually went to veterans. Gruber also spent six months in a Kansas prison in 2004 for felony theft.

Last week, Gruber said he

planned to dissolve the nonprofit, though he did not say when. He also said that he would be transferring leadership of another nonprofit he founded in 2010 — Kids vs. Cancer — to his brother Steven Gruber, who lives in Texas.

Timothy West, who acted as local attorney for the Military Order of the Purple Heart, said the organization was pleased Gruber agreed to settle the issue quickly.

“He essentially consented to everything,” West said.

But they also aimed to stop Gruber from operating the nonprofit after learning of the numerous issues highlighted during the Journal-World investigation, West said.

“I think there’s a public goal,” West said. “It was important that (the Military Order of the Purple Heart) stepped up and stopped this guy.”

Regents review salaries of school leaders

By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

TOPEKA — State higher education officials are looking at whether the salaries of chief executive officers at the regents universities are competitive.

“We want to make sure we can attract the best people,” Kansas Board of Regents Chairman Ed McKechnie of Arcadia said Thursday.

The board is trying to fill the vacancy of president at Emporia State University.

“We’re just studying everything,” he said. The board will make a decision later this year on salary issues.

The board held a closeddoor session Wednesday on the issue of chief executive salaries.

The board has not granted salary increases to the heads of regents schools since 2009 as the state has struggled with the recession.

— Reporter Shaun Hittle can be reached Kansas University Chanat 832-7173. cellor Bernadette Gray-Lit-

tle is paid $267,177 by the state and has a salary cap of $425,000. The difference is made up by private funds from the Kansas University Endowment Association.

This is the level she was hired at in 2009.

Kansas State University President Kirk Schulz makes $255,298 with a total salary cap of $350,000. Donald Beggs, the president of Wichita State, makes $223,391 with a cap of $277,160. Fort Hays State President Ed Hammond and Pittsburg State President Steven Scott each make $202,593. Hammond’s cap is $223,860, while Scott’s is $213,200. The last Emporia State president, Michael Lane, made $202,540 with a cap of $213,200.

Andy Tompkins, president and chief executive officer of the Kansas Board of Regents, makes $185,000 with a cap of $197,000.

Special unit hunting Gadhafi

By Ryan Lucas Associated Press

TRIPOLI, LIBYA — Determined to hunt down Moammar Gadhafi, Libya’s new rulers say they have dedicated a special unit of fighters to track the elusive former leader, listening in on his aides’ phone calls, poring over satellite images and interviewing witnesses.

Although leads come mostly from on-the-ground tips, help is also coming from France and other Western countries, according to a French intelligence official. Satellite-based transmission intercepts of suspicious phone calls try to pinpoint where Gadhafi might be.

Small CIA teams are also assisting in the manhunt, according to former U.S. officials.

Gadhafi, who hasn’t been seen in public for months, went underground after antiregime fighters swept into Tripoli on Aug. 21. Capturing the ousted ruler would allow the former rebels to seal their grip on the country and shut the door on the possibility of Gadhafi’s inspiring an insurgency against the new leaders.

After more than four decades under his authoritarian rule, Libyans are haunted by the question of Gadhafi’s whereabouts, and the country has been awash with rumors that have put him everywhere from deep in a bunker under Tripoli to safe in exile in neighboring Niger or Algeria.

On Thursday, Gadhafi himself dismissed talk of his flight, saying in an audio broadcast that he’s still in Libya, and exhorting followers to keep fighting.

An anti-Gadhafi fighter, speaking on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the matter, said revolutionary forces stormed a villa on Tripoli’s outskirts last week acting on a tip.

The fighter, who took part in the operation, said they believe Gadhafi was at the villa and escaped less than an hour before the raid through a secret tunnel. Computers were on and cups of tea were still warm, he said, indicating the occupants had just fled.

Two chefs working at the villa were detained and documents recovered, the fighter said.

Kuwait may host U.S. backup force

By Rebecca Santana and Robert Burns Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The Obama administration is considering staging American troops in Kuwait next year as a backup or rotational training force for Iraq, after the Pentagon completes the scheduled withdrawal of its current 45,000-strong force from Iraq in December, U.S. officials said.

The proposal, not yet publicly announced, is among a number of options the administration is considering for extending its military training role in still-violent Iraq, whose divided government has been reluctant to directly ask Washington to keep troops on its soil beyond this year.

All troops are to depart Iraq by Dec. 31 under a 2008 security agreement, but senior U.S. officials are concerned that without more training the Iraqi forces may squander hard-won security gains. The Iraqi army, for

Associated Press

LOS ANGELES — Federal regulators who are supposed to decide whether to impose limits on prescription drugs in U.S. drinking water still aren’t even sure which pharmaceuticals pose human health risks at the low concentrations scientists are finding, government investigators say in a new report.

What began several years ago as a coordinated effort among federal agencies to analyze what — if anything — should be done about hormones, antibiotics, painkillers and other drugs in tap water has fizzled, according to a report released Thursday by the Government Accountability Office.

The solution proposed by GAO investigators: Another federal “workgroup” to tackle the issue systematically.

The lack of coordination among regulators persists three years after an Associated Press investigation revealed that traces of pharmaceuticals were passing through treatment plants and into drinking water supplies nationwide.

The main source of the contamination is medicine that people take, but that their bodies don’t fully absorb. Some of the active ingredients are flushed when people use the toilet, beginning a journey to sewage plants, into waterways that are drinking water sources, and — after further treatment to make it potable — back to the kitchen sink.

Representatives of water utilities and pharmaceutical manufacturers say that the low concentrations pose no

example, is only now taking delivery of U.S. battle tanks, on which they have yet to be trained.

Iraq’s security forces are improving but still lack the capability to fully defend Iraqi air space, borders and territorial waters, U.S. military officers say.

“There are some gaps in their military capabilities, their security capabilities, that we believe we could offer some assistance with,” Navy Capt. John Kirby, a spokesman for the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said Thursday. Discussions with the Iraqis on this are in an early stage, Kirby added.

The Obama administration favors a proposal that would leave 3,000 to 5,000 U.S. troops in Iraq next year to train Iraqi forces, U.S. officials said this week. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because Iraq has not yet asked for any extension of forces.

It has not previously been reported that staging U.S. forces in Kuwait as a part of

that training mission — or possibly in addition to that mission — is under consideration.

One of the U.S. officials said the administration would foresee the Kuwait arrangement lasting for three years, starting in 2012, with troops rotating into Iraq for six-month stints. No decisions have been made, and it was not clear whether direct talks with the Kuwaiti government have begun.

Kuwait has played a key role in the Iraq war from its beginning. The bulk of U.S. ground forces launched the invasion from Kuwaiti territory in March 2003, and the tiny Gulf state has served as a transit point for coalition supply convoys and air transport throughout the conflict.

The U.S. uses Kuwaiti air and land bases and maintains a small force in the country now. The Iraq backup forces would be in addition to that contingent.

The final stage of the U.S. troop withdrawal from Iraq began this week.

Bones a ‘game-changer’ in evolution

By Randolph E. Schmid Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Two-million-year-old bones belonging to a creature with both apelike and human traits provide the clearest evidence of evolution’s first major step toward modern humans — findings some are calling a potential game-changer.

An analysis of the bones found in South Africa suggests Australopithecus sediba is the most likely candidate to be the ancestor of humans, said lead researcher Lee R. Berger of the University of Witwatersrand in South Africa.

The fossils, belonging to a male child and an adult female, show a novel combination of features, almost as though nature were experimenting. Some resemble prehuman creatures while others suggest the genus Homo, which includes Homo sapiens, modern people.

“It’s as if evolution is caught in one vital moment, a stop-action snapshot of evolution in action,” said Rich-

Report: Feds stumble over limiting drugs in water

human health risk — that a person would need to drink thousands of glasses of water to get a typical therapeutic dose. Research cited in AP’s original 2008 investigation suggested cause for concern: Even very small amounts of unwanted drugs could do cumulative harm to people who regularly drink water, in part because they may combine with other pharmaceuticals to unforeseen effect, according to researchers.

In the new GAO report, investigators focused on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, which is in charge of national water policy.

Two years ago, the EPA announced that it would consider setting limits for pharmaceuticals in drinking water, publishing a list of nine sex hormones, one antibiotic and two other chemicals that remain candidates for regulation. Making the candidate list doesn’t mean a chemical will be regulated — that’s the analysis EPA officials have to complete, and they have said they intend to make preliminary decisions on some of the 12 contaminants next year.

Just how that will be done was one source of concern to authors of the GAO report, who cited a lack of data on water quality and human health effects.

“EPA is collaborating with the Food and Drug Administration and U.S. Geological Survey on research to help obtain such data but these efforts are largely informal,” the authors wrote. “EPA officials said there is no formal mechanism, such as a long-term strategy or formal agreement, to manage and sustain these collaborative efforts.”

ard Potts, director of the human origins program at the Smithsonian Institution. He was not among the team, led

by South African scientists, whose research was published online Thursday in the journal Science.

Scientists have long considered the Australopithecus family, which includes the famous fossil Lucy, to be a primitive candidate for a human ancestor. The new research establishes a creature that combines features of both groups.

The newly studied bones were found in 2008 in the fossil-rich cave region of Malapa near Johannesberg.

Berger’s then 9-year-old son, Matthew, found a bone that was determined to belong to the child. Two weeks later Berger uncovered the fossils of the female.

Fidel breaks long silence with interview HAVANA — Fidel Castro has broken a long silence by granting an interview to a Venezuelan television station, his first since rumors began to spread that the former Cuban leader might be sick or near death. A top Cuban official said Thursday that the revolutionary is in good health.

Photographs of the sit-down with a journalist from Venezolana de Television were posted on Cubadebate, a state-run website. The 85-year-old appears relaxed and healthy in the pictures, sitting in an easy chair and wearing a white jacket and green pants.

The website said the interview occurred Tuesday in Havana, but it had not yet been broadcast and it was not immediately clear when it would be.

“I hate to inform those who are enjoying themselves by believing that Commandante Fidel has had a stroke that he is alive and kicking,” the Venezuelan journalist who conducted the interview, Mario Silva, was quoted as saying on the website.

KU’s No. 1 fan Through thick and thin, the Kansas University football program had no greater or more loyal fan than former coach Don Fambrough

F

ormer Kansas football coach Don Fambrough’s hatred of Missouri and especially the Missouri Tigers is legend, but the people of Lawrence will have many other lasting memories of Fambrough, who died Saturday.

First of all, Kansas University had no greater fan. He played and coached football at KU, but he also loved the KU Marching Jayhawks and supported efforts to make the band better and bigger. Did you remember that he wrote a children’s book? It was called “Three Little Jayhawks,” and it was about — you guessed it — some smart little Jayhawks who outwit the big bad Missouri tiger.

It was a natural task for Fambrough. He was an incredible story-teller who didn’t hesitate to embellish the details a little to enhance the effect of his tale. His language could be a little, shall we say, salty, but it always seemed to be connected to his passion about his subject rather than any intent to be mean-spirited.

Fambrough supported many community efforts in the city he called home for more than 60 years. He was the focus of the 2003 “Evening with Coach Fam and Friends” to raise funds for the Bert Nash Community Mental Health Center. Moved by the care that his wife, Del, received before her death in 2001, he also became a big fan and supporter of Douglas County Visiting Nurses and Hospice.

He was a native of Texas, but his love of KU was unmatched. In October 2007, KU dedicated a bench overlooking Memorial Stadium to Fambrough, and photos from the event show him greeting former players and sitting on his bench with his arm around a 10-yearold fan. In November 2009, Fambrough organized a rally for KU players before they headed to their showdown with Missouri in Arrowhead Stadium. He was a frequent visitor to KU practices, and his speeches to stir up players’ fury before the annual Missouri game are legend.

Quite simply, he was always there for the KU football program, as well as many other community efforts.

The coach may have hated Missouri but, in Lawrence, he was everyone’s friend. His easy smile, great stories and infectious passion for the Jayhawks will be a fond and lasting memory for all the players and friends whose lives he touched.

Latin America’s love of China wanes After a decade of record Latin American exports to China, which helped the region grow significantly despite the recent global recession, there are signs that the honeymoon may be coming to an end.

Growing numbers of Latin American business leaders and trade experts are complaining that China is buying almost exclusively raw materials from the region, while refusing to purchase more sophisticated — and expensive — Latin American goods, thus preventing the region from having more diversified economies.

In addition, Chinese companies are bringing dubious business practices to the region, exploiting workers and destroying the environment, they say.

A recent column by former Brazilian diplomat Rubens Barbosa in the daily O Estado de Sao Paulo, says that along with an increase in trade and investments, Chinese companies in developing countries are bringing “an everything-goes culture, which includes even physical violence in labor relations.”

Citing an article in The Economist on China’s investments in Africa, Barbosa says that China “is destroying parks and forests in search of mineral and agricultural resources, and routinely violates the most elementary labor laws. Roads and hospitals built by the Chinese are badly finished, among other things because their construction companies pay bribes to local officials.”

Until now, Chinese companies had a big advantage in developing countries: their presence

was not seen with suspicion, or hostility. But that’s changing, he Unfortunately, some South American governments have been fooling their populations by claiming that their recent growth was due to novel economic policies, rather than by a Chinese buying spree that may not last forever. says.

Barbosa, who served as ambassador to Washington during the Luiz Inacio Lula de Silva government and now heads the foreign trade council of Brazil’s powerful FIESP industrialists federation, said Brazilian executives working for Chinese firms are also complaining about “long work days, frequent overtime, teleconferences in the wee

hours, and production goals that are unrealistic and non-negotiable.”

As a result, 42 percent of Brazilian executives working for Chinese firms quit their jobs in their first year, he said, quoting a story in the daily Folha de Sao Paulo. Barbosa concluded that China’s business practices “should be followed with attention” by government authorities, labor unions and business associations.

Almost simultaneously, a new study by the United Nations Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC), “Overview of Latin America’s insertion in the world economy,” shows that 87 percent of Latin America’s exports to Asia — mainly China — are raw materials, while only 13 percent are manufactured goods.

By comparison, 60 percent of Latin America’s exports to the United States are manufactured goods, and the remaining 40 percent raw materials, the study says. Clearly, one of the main pending assignments for Chinadependent Latin American commodity exporting countries is to diversify their exports to China, so that they are not vulnerable to sudden price drops, it says.

“China’s demand for Latin American raw materials will continue, but at a slower pace, because the Chinese economy is slowing down,” ECLAC Executive Director Alicia Barcena told me. “We must try to go beyond exporting raw materials.”

Arturo Valenzuela, who headed the U.S. State Department’s Western Hemisphere department until last month, told me in another interview that many

Latin American countries are beginning to see the United States as a more promising business partner than China.

“China is not willing to buy more sophisticated goods, such as processed soybeans, and at the same time wants to sell its sophisticated goods to the region,” he said. “That asymmetry is complicating Latin America’s situation.”

He added, “On the other hand, the United States wants to create value chains, where all sides benefit, as is the case with the auto industry in Mexico, the United States and Canada.

That’s what’s most beneficial for societies, because these value chains require better education.

That’s the way countries will advance, not selling raw materials.”

My opinion: China’s emergence as a major buyer of Latin American commodities has been a blessing for the region, but it has also become a problem, in that it has distracted countries from the urgent task of diversifying their exports, and producing more sophisticated goods.

Unfortunately, some South American governments have been fooling their populations by claiming that their recent growth was due to novel economic policies, rather than by a Chinese buying spree that may not last forever. Hopefully, a more realistic view will help countries seek more mature trade ties with China, which would greatly benefit the region.

The children worked hard and some of them worried through the hardest time. The lot at the corner of Indiana and Warren streets was especially well cared for.... Mrs. Harriet E. Tanner writes the Journal-World especially commenting on the work done on that lot and says that Dolph Simons is entitled to the $1 cash prize offered to the child making the best showing.

Dolph put a lot of time on his little garden and the results of his garden are most gratifying.”

To the editor In response to Sept. 4 letter to the editor: The Flat Earth Party believes that the Flat Earth Party would trigger worldwide depression in a move to take over government. A depression will allow them to be elected and take over the government as the problem is the current government’s head, which they will not let improve conditions until after the next election. Supporters will not hire the unemployed To the editor: until after the elections and only Tuesday was the unofficial if they vote for the Flat Earth start of fall, a really pleasant and Party candidates. beautiful bicycle commuting The Flat Earth Party promis- season in Kansas.

Cycling season

you very much for the offer, Ms. Bachmann). Riding a bicycle or walking won’t save the world, but you will enjoy it. Besides, making that small change in thinking about what is necessary for your life may lead to other changes. It might lead to demanding some changes from national leaders.

So, join the cycling community. Get out the bike, pump up your tires, put on a helmet. If you ride in the dark, you need a light in front and back and as much reflective stuff as you can get. Stay alert. Assume drivers often will not notice you. Stop where you are supposed to.

Avoid the busiest streets but enjoy the ride. It’s easy and it’s fun.

Joe Douglas, Lawrence

Enjoying Obama To the editor: Yes, Mr. Shewmon, I AM enjoying the changes that President Obama has brought to the office of the presidency. We now have an intelligent person in the office who understands the Constitution and who is respected by world leaders. He appointed two women to the Supreme Court. He saved the auto industry. His health care bill has already given thousands access to affordable coverage. The Ledbetter Act calls for equal pay

for equal work. He is pushing to eliminate “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” in the military, as well as working for better care for returning veterans. He is bringing home the troops … and on and on.

The change I do NOT like since the 2008 election is how the GOP members of Congress have refused to work out any compromises on any issue, even on bills which they once introduced themselves. They have acted like children in saying “no” to every proposal supported by the president regarding jobs and then they blame him for not creating jobs! Congressional GOP members have signed no-tax pledges, becoming slaves to Grover Norquist and the tea party caucus. Nothing is left of that once-proud political party to which I once belonged. No president has ever had to deal with such an obstinate group of legislators as he tries to address this economic crisis, which was not of his own making. As Michael Tomasky stated on June 9 in The Daily Beast, “We did not spend our way into this crisis, we de-taxed our way into it.”

Yes, I fully support the president, and I will work for his reelection in 2012!

Audrey Mortensen, Lawrence

Story slam Tonight’s story slam at the Lawrence Arts Center, 940 N.H., is about the feelgood themes of mistrust and dishonesty. Entitled “Lies,” the story slam is hosted by David Hollond and features guest storytellers and musicians sharing stories about the art of lying. What’s more, those in attendance are encouraged to tell their own true story about lies. Music begins at 7 p.m. and the stories start at 7:30 p.m. Or maybe I’m lying. I’m not. The event is donation-based and open to anyone 18 and older, as the stories get a little racy.

NORTHERN ILLINOIS AT KANSAS ! 6 P.M. SATURDAY Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Recruiting Illinois wise idea As uncertainty muddies Kansas University’s conference affiliation, fears grow the Jayhawks could end up in a league without strong ties to their most fertile recruiting ground, the state of Texas.

KU will continue to recruit Texas football players, regardless of its affiliation, but must expand its recruiting nets.

Turner Gill’s staff already has done so, taking advantage of Robert Wimberly’s strong ties in Florida and recruiting coordinator Reggie Mitchell’s in multiple areas.

Look for Kansas to do a better job in the state of Illinois in coming years thanks to Mitchell, who recruited for Michigan State and Illinois. KU’s Saturday opponent, Northern Illinois, proves that not all the Illinois talent gets gobbled up

by Big Ten powers.

Northern Illinois, which visits Memorial Stadium as nearly a touchdown favorite, went 11-3 and won a bowl game last season.

Northern Illinois lists 106 players on its roster, including 46 from Illinois. Three of the four Illinois natives on KU’s roster are freshmen, including swift running back Tony Pierson.

Mining talent from Illinois is a wise strategy for KU, which can offer recruits the chance to play in a big-name conference, something the Huskies, who play in the Mid-American Conference, can’t.

Jerry Kill and his staff did such a fine job of recruiting and developing in-state talent for NIU that Kill was hired away

by Minnesota. Replacing him is former Mark Mangino assistant coach Dave Doeren, who left KU for Wisconsin, where he worked his way to the defensive-coordinator position.

Despite Doeren’s background, stopping the Huskies presents KU with an even greater challenge than scoring on them.

NIU has won 10 of its last 11 games, and the 49 points it scored in last week’s rout of Army was only the fifth-highest point total during that stretch.

Senior quarterback Chandler Harnish, from Blufton, Ind., threw for five touchdowns and ran for one against Army.

With experience comes the ability to read defenses and pick them apart. Harnish, a serious running threat as well, gives Northern Illinois the advantage against KU. He hit seven different receivers in the opener. He and tailback Jasmin Hopkins (138 rushing yards, 9.9 yards per carry) give NIU enough variety that the Mid-American school doesn’t have to rely on any one method to put defenses in retreat.

At this point, Kansas must stick to its run-first approach and hope that the Huskies are forced into loading the box to try to stop the run, so that JaCorey Shepherd and the other KU receivers can work against single coverage, get open, and hope quarterback Jordan Webb can find them in time.

No reason to believe Kansas can’t mount another strong rushing night, provided the play-callers don’t panic and abandon the run as soon as the Jayhawks fall behind.

Against McNeese State, Kansas rushed 55 times for 301 yards. Army ran it 63 times for 303 yards vs. NIU. It shapes up as an interesting matchup, an experienced team picked to finish atop the small conference against an inexperienced one picked to finish at the bottom of a BCS league.

Underdog mentality

NORTHERN ILLINOIS COACH DAVE DOEREN, LEFT, WILL LEAD his Huskies into Lawrence on Saturday against Turner Gill, right, and Kansas University.

Despite being favored by 51⁄2 points, NIU players said they still feel like the underdog heading into the 6 p.m. battle at Memorial Stadium.

KU, NIU players approach matchup with similar mind-sets

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

More times than not, when a Big 12 football school takes on a team from the MAC, the Big 12 team is favored, especially when that game takes place in Big 12 country.

That’s not the case this week, though, as Kansas University (10) enters Saturday’s game as a 51⁄2-point underdog to Northern Illinois (1-0) despite playing host to the Huskies at 6 p.m. at Memorial Stadium.

While the actual numbers make for an odd situation, the way the teams are reacting to it is even

stranger. Is it possible to have two underdogs in the same game? It is if you ask players from KU and NIU. “We don’t pay attention to the point spreads and all that,” NIU quarterback Chandler Harnish said. “Because, in our hearts, we’re still the underdog going into that game. I’m pretty sure everyone in that stadium is going to expect Kansas to win. They can’t lose to a MAC team. That’s what they’re thinking. So all the pressure’s really on them.”

Except that it isn’t.

“This is a good football team,” said KU offensive coordinator Chuck Long of NIU, which pound-

ed Army, 49-26 during Week 1.

“They’ve had winning handed down to them over a number of years now. That makes them a good football team. This is a big challenge for us.”

Added KU linebacker Steven Johnson: “It’s going to be a fight, because NIU is a really respected team. I’m pretty sure they could be a team that could play in the Big 12. Even though they’re in a small conference, they pack a lot of power.”

So there you have it. Both sides talking the other one-up. Hardly sounds like a nonconference game during the second week of the season. It sounds a little more

like the postseason. Regardless of what they believe about the game — KU opened as a seven-point underdog — the Jayhawks admit that they use every slight as motivation.

“We take it in,” junior linebacker Malcolm Walker said. “We know we’re the last team that everybody picks to win, so it makes you work even harder. I think this will set the tempo for the season.

After this game, this will really just show guys what Kansas is all about.” ! Matt Tait’s KU football

KANSAS MEN’S BASKETBALL

Freshmen Traylor, McLemore attending class

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Kansas University freshmen basketball players Ben McLemore and Jamari Traylor attended classes Thursday morning for the first time this semester, but have not yet been fully cleared by the NCAA to participate during the 2011-12 basketball season, coach Bill Self said Thursday.

Self said he expects to hear today from the NCAA Clearinghouse regarding the status of freshman Braeden Anderson, who is not yet on campus and has not been cleared to be on scholarship.

“Ben and Jamari both are enrolled in classes and attending,” Self said. “The NCAA and Big 12 have cleared them to be on scholarship and attend class

while they still are responding to some academic materials (submitted by the players and the three high schools they attended).”

McLemore and Traylor will not be allowed to take part in individual preseason practice drills until they are fully cleared, which Self hoped would be soon.

“I think it’s Traylor a situation we don’t like dealing with and know the NCAA doesn’t like, either, but they’ve got a job to do,” Self said of NCAA Clearinghouse officials’ determining eligibility of the trio. “We did not anticipate having to go through this with these

kids at all, but they (NCAA) brought up some points they wanted to look into. The process does take a little time.

“We are really glad to have them in school.

I know those two kids are excited,” Self added.

“We know the next week or two will be spent getting them in catch-up mode McLemore so they are back to a level playing field (academically).”

McLemore, a 6-foot-5 guard from St. Louis, started at Wellston High in his hometown.

LAWRENCE HIGH FOOTBALL

FSHS not taking Pioneers lightly in home matchup

Lions far from content with opening victory

By Jesse Newell jnewell@ljworld.com

The days of Leavenworth High football being a Sunflower League pushover might be coming to an end.

Leavenworth boasts 19 returning starters and talent at the skill positions. Free State coach Bob Lisher sees a squad with potential.

“They’re a scary team, simply because speed can hurt you regardless,” Lisher said, “and they have a lot of it.”

The Firebirds’ home opener against Leavenworth will kick off at 7 tonight at Free State.

Leavenworth’s offense centers on two players: junior quarterback Judson Cole and sophomore running back Jason Randall.

The Pioneers run most of their offensive plays out of the shotgun formation, meaning Leavenworth coach Kevin Kopecky isn’t afraid to let Cole throw it around.

“He’s got speed and can throw,” Lisher said of Cole. “There’s more than one thing we have to defend against Leavenworth. They’ll throw it everywhere.”

FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS What: FSHS football vs. Leavenworth When: 7 tonight Where: FSHS What: LHS football at O-South When: 7 tonight Where: ODAC

By Corey Thibodeaux Journal-World Sports Writer

Friday’s victory against Shawnee Mission West was a great feat for Lawrence High’s football team, but the Lions are still trying to solidify their place atop the Sunflower League.

Lawrence coach Dirk Wedd is sure his team won’t settle for becoming a one-hit wonder, which makes today’s 7 p.m. game at Olathe South even more significant.

“They don’t want to be a flash in the pan,” Wedd said. “They want to be a football team that is

consistent every week and that people will want to support.”

Before the season began, most preseason polls had Olathe East, O-South and SM West among the best teams in the league.

Those happen to be Lawrence’s first three opponents. LHS passed the first test, but it only gets harder from here.

The challenge now is keeping the players level-headed so they can concentrate on the opponent. Senior defensive tackle Sean Thomas said he would be focused on tonight.

Peyton Manning out â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;awhileâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; after surgery INDIANAPOLIS â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Peyton Manning underwent more neck surgery Thursday, the third time in 19 months, and will miss not only the opening game but possibly the entire season.

Losing Manning for any stretch of time is a huge blow to the Colts and throws the race for the AFC South wide open. The four-time NFL MVP hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t missed a game in 14 NFL seasons, with 227 consecutive starts, including postseason. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Rehabilitation from such surgery is typically an involved process,â&#x20AC;? the team said in a statement, calling the procedure â&#x20AC;&#x153;uneventful.â&#x20AC;?

The Colts said there would be â&#x20AC;&#x153;no estimation of a return date at this time.

We will keep Peyton on the active roster until we have a clear picture of his recovery process.â&#x20AC;?

Team owner Jim Irsay Manning tweeted that the 35-yearold Manning would be out â&#x20AC;&#x153;awhile.â&#x20AC;?

The Colts could have put Manning on injured reserve to open a roster spot, but it would have meant not playing at all during a season that ends with a Super Bowl at Lucas Oil Stadium in downtown Indianapolis.

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;MNFâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; on ESPN through 2021 ESPN is betting nearly $2 billion a year that fans are ready for even more football on even more platforms.

The network agreed with the league on an eight-year contract extension that keeps â&#x20AC;&#x153;Monday Night Footballâ&#x20AC;? on ESPN through the 2021 season, brings the games to some tablets and boosts the amount of programming shown on the already football-saturated family of networks.

The deal is worth $1.9 billion a year for a total of $15.2 billion over the length of the contract, two people with knowledge of the agreement told the Associated Press. The people spoke on condition of anonymity because no money figures were officially announced.

Miami signs Larry Johnson DAVIE, FLA. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Two-time Pro Bowl running back Larry Johnson has become a bottomof-the-roster player struggling to prolong his career, which he did Thursday by re-signing with the Miami Dolphins.

The move came five days after the Dolphins cut Johnson.

Miami needed a reinforcement because rookie running back Daniel Thomas hurt his hamstring Wednesday and sat out practice Thursday. He is day to day, coach Tony Sparano said.

Johnson originally joined the Dolphins on Aug. 23 and scored on a 22-yard run in their final exhibition game â&#x20AC;&#x201D; his first TD since 2008 with Kansas City. He sat out most of last season after his career was derailed by a series of off-the-field missteps.

STILLWATER, OKLA. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Brandon Weeden connected with Justin Blackmon on two short touchdown tosses, Joseph Randle ran for two scores, and No. 9 Oklahoma State used an early burst of offense to beat Arizona, 37-14, on Thursday night in a rematch of last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Alamo Bowl.

The Cowboys (2-0) scored on their first three drives to open a 21-0 lead in the first 161â &#x201E;2 minutes, then put it away with two scores midway through the second half.

Randle had 121 yards rushing and nine catches for 99 yards, and Blackmon had 128 yards on 12 receptions to extend his NCAA record streak to 14 straight games with at least 100 yards receiving.

Weeden finished with 397 yards passing, one less than Arizonaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Nick Foles, in a duel between the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top two passers from the first week of the season.

The Wildcats (1-1) played without Juron Criner, who was the Pac-10â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top receiver last season and tied the school record with 11 touchdown catches. He had an appendectomy on Monday, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unclear whether heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be able to return in time for Arizonaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home games the next two weeks against No. 6 Stanford and No. 12 Oregon.

But even with Criner out, Foles flung it around without many issues. Texas transfer Dan Buckner had 10 catches for 142 yards, including a 54-yarder for a touchdown, and Austin Hill had 128 yards on eight receptions.

The Wildcatsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; running game was virtually nonexistent for the second straight week, though. Keola Antonin had just 22 yards on 13 carries, including a 1-yard touchdown run during a stretch when Arizona made five straight defensive stops to give itself a chance.

Oklahoma State flipped the field when punter Quinn Sharp took off for a 23-yard gain on a fake, and the Wildcats then got in their own way with a series of penalties that backed them up to their own 1-yard line before punting it back.

Weeden capitalized on the short field by feeding Blackmon on four straight plays, the last one a 3-yard fade pattern to the right side of the end zone. Randle highlighted the Cowboysâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; next drive by coming out of the backfield to catch a 63-yard flip over the middle and set up Jeremy Smithâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 6-yard TD run that made it 34-7 early in the fourth quarter.

Buckner answered with his long TD on a stop-and-go down the right sideline against Devin Hedgepeth, but it was too little, too late for Arizona.

The Wildcats, who lost 36-10 in the Alamo Bowl to complete a five-game free fall at the end of last season, hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t put up nearly enough resistance at the start and lost to OSU for the second time in nine months.

Weeden completed 19 of his first 20 passes as Oklahoma State charged down the field on scoring drives of 88, 80 and 70 yards. Randle had touchdown runs of 1 and 4 yards, and in between Weeden tossed a 3-yard fade pass that Blackmon caught over his shoulder before tapping his right foot in the corner of the end zone.

Weedenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first 13 passes were completed.

CONFERENCE REALIGNMENT

Chaos quiets down for a change

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Relative to Wednesday’s mass chaos, Thursday was a calm day in the world of conference realignment.

That’s not to say things weren’t happening.

As the Big 12 Conference strives to stay alive for the second year in a row, and the rest of the country awaits the outcome with nationwide conference restructuring potentially hanging in the balance, university officials throughout the league used Thursday as an opportunity to sit back and re-evaluate their position.

That’s thanks in large part to Baylor’s efforts on Wednesday to stall, if not derail, Texas A&M’s move to the SEC, which seemed to be a slam dunk as recently as Tuesday night when the SEC voted unanimously to welcome the Aggies.

Not content simply to let the conference dissolve, Bay-

TAIT’S TAKE Follow the realignment madness as it happens with Matt Tait’s Tale of the Tait blog on KUSports.com. lor, which one source said acted alone in starting the push to slow the Aggies’ departure, stood up for itself and threatened legal action, causing the Aggies to tap the brakes. By the end of the day Wednesday, several other schools, including Kansas University, had jumped in line behind Baylor.

“What that showed is that the have-nots have some power,” one university official said Thursday. “And what that did is gave everyone a chance to breathe.”

What began earlier this week as a power play involving the league’s giants — Texas, Texas A&M and Oklahoma — quickly shifted into a scenario in which the so-called little guys were

calling the shots. At least momentarily.

Sources indicated Thursday that Kansas, Kansas State and Missouri all had become instrumental in backing Baylor and fighting to keep the Big 12 intact.

One Big 12 source said what went down Wednesday humbled some of the Big 12’s power brokers and sent a clear message to the entire league that jumping ship would not be easy or tolerated. However, it may still happen.

Thursday evening, reports surfaced that Oklahoma and Oklahoma State, both rumored to be hot-to-trot to join the Pac-12, had waived their right to sue the SEC or A&M regarding the Aggies’ efforts to leave the Big 12.

The SEC has said all along that it would not take the Aggies if the threat of legal action loomed.

Whether Thursday’s move was made as a precursor to the Oklahoma schools

“After the buzzer sounded when we beat Shawnee Mission West, my mind set on Olathe South,” he said. “That was a good win and all, but it’s in the past.”

Don’t be misled by last week’s 35-12 victory. There are plenty of mistakes for the Lions to correct. Wedd said the tackling needed improvement, and the pass protection was mediocre at best. Plus, they turned the ball over twice and only took it away once.

As LHS works to correct its own issues, it also has to prepare for the impressive rushing attack that O-South used to dismantle Free State, 35-14, Friday. The Falcons ran for 320 yards on 49 carries. If the Lions want a shot at winning, they have to control the middle of the field and plug holes on defense. It sounds easy, but O-South has had a lot of success while running its unconventional offense.

Doeren returns

A year ago, freshman Josh Selby was in a similar situation as the clearinghouse examined his high school coursework.

He was allowed by the NCAA to start attending class on Sept. 7 as the clearinghouse continued to look into his transcripts and grades.

He ultimately was cleared academically on Oct. 27.

Selby elected not to attend classes before getting cleared because in the case of not being cleared, the stu-

“It’s a lot of misdirection, and it’s hard to keep track of the football,” Wedd said.

Wedd said his team has had a good week of practice, which started on Labor Day. The same starters for LHS last week will start against OSouth, but it looks to be one of the toughest games of the year.

Junior quarterback Brad Strauss and the Lion offense shouldn’t have too much trouble making plays, as the Falcons gave up 335 total yards to the Firebirds.

Randall, meanwhile, started for the Pioneers as a true freshman last season.

“He’s really strong, actually, for a sophomore,” Free State junior defensive end/ offensive lineman Cody Stanclift said. “He’s pretty big.

He’s fast, too.”

Stanclift said he was impressed by the Pioneers’ quickness.

“They probably have more speed than us,” Stanclift said.

“The size is about equal, which is kind of a surprise, because we’re a small team for 6A. But if we can contain that speed, we should be able to control the game.”

Leavenworth’s 40-14 loss to Olathe Northwest last week had many similarities to Free State’s season-opening 35-14 loss to Olathe South.

Both Leavenworth and Free State were competitive until the third quarter, when costly mistakes turned close games into routs.

Seattle Smoaks K.C. American League Mariners 4, Royals 1 SEATTLE — Justin Smoak hit his first home run in nearly three months, a two-run shot in the sixth inning, to help Seattle claim a victory over Kansas City on Thursday night.

Smoak hit a 1-1 fastball from Luke Hochevar (10-11) into the right-field seats for his 13th, but first since June 12. He had gone 48 games between home runs.

Jason Vargas (8-13) picked up the victory, his first since Aug. 10. He worked six innings, allowing four hits and one run. Jamey Wright, Tom Wilhelmsen each worked a hitless inning.

Brandon League had a little trouble getting out of the ninth. He took a two-out line drive from Mike Moustakas off his left leg, with Moustakas reaching. Shortstop Brendan Ryan bobbled a Johnny Giavotella ground ball.

League got Salvador Perez to ground out to end the game and earn his 34th save in 39 opportunities.

National League Braves 6-5, Mets 5-1 NEW YORK — Julio Teheran gave flashes of his vast potential in earning his first big-league win, and Atlanta, using a lineup with Chipper Jones starting as the No. 2 hitter for the first time in 15 years, beat New York to complete a sweep of a doubleheader made necessary by the threat of Hurricane Irene.

Jones had a sacrifice fly and RBI double in the nightcap and a solo homer and a double in the opener, a 6-5 victory for Atlanta. The Braves were making a quick stop in New York to play two games postponed Aug. 27-28 after being handed their first three-game sweep of the season, by the Phillies.

mention our liability should anything happen to her. She was furious and stopped speaking to me.

I thought it was common sense and established social decorum that one should not swim in a neighbor’s pool without an invitation. Am I correct? How do I mend our relationship? — Confused Pool Owner

Dear Confused: You are correct.

She also has a short and those words and images fuse. We don’t know why will stick in your head for a long time. Your wife has betrayed your trust, whether or not she slept with the guy.

Two friends and show business veterans swap stories on “Mel Brooks and Dick Cavett Together Again” (8 p.m., HBO).

They are completely at ease with each other and make the most of their contrasts. Brooks, the accomplished comedy filmmaker and producer of “The Producers” on stage and screen, never forgets his roots in bawdy and even scatological humor. Cavett plays the urbane Yale grad and Midwestern WASP to Brooks’ Catskills comedian, and their mutual admiration and respect are infectious.

Most of “Together” consists of the two men revealing familiar but “never before told” anecdotes about show business luminaries. Aged 84 when this was filmed before a live theater audience, Brooks still brings a giddy, wicked, boyish enthusiasm to his off-color stories. He seems truly ageless. A full decade younger, Cavett appears to be further removed from the talk show persona that depended so heavily on boyish looks.

Both men have roots deep in television.

Cavett wrote for Jack Paar, Johnny Carson and Jerry Lewis, among other hosts, before getting his own series, arguably the best TV talk show ever. Writers for “Your Show of Shows,” Brooks and Carl Reiner were regulars on “The Steve Allen Show,” where they re-created their long-running routine, the 2000- Year-Old Man. Brooks also co-created “Get Smart” with Buck Henry, who wrote “The Graduate” at roughly the same time Brooks was making “The Producers.”

Brooks and Cavett share a mid-20th century affection for old Hollywood and the Great American Songbook. Their sensibilities appear to have been well established before Elvis Presley cut a record. And that’s what makes them so special, and increasingly rare. It’s fun to hear these old pros egging each other on and spilling not-so-secret tales about the eating habits of Alfred Hitchcock and Orson Welles, Cary Grant’s insecurities, Frank Sinatra’s dubious associates, Fred Astaire’s opinion of Katharine Hepburn and the amorous excesses of Tallulah Bankhead and Grace Kelly.

The voice of Neil Patrick Harris animates a new chapter of “The Penguins of Madagascar” (7 p.m., Nickelodeon), “Blowhole Strikes Back.”

Tonight’s other highlights

Scheduled on “48 Hours Mystery” (7 p.m., CBS): A survivor tells of an encounter with “The Railroad Killer.”

On two episodes of “Friends With Benefits” (NBC): work (7 p.m.), buddies (7:30 p.m.).

A couple of survivors endure a forest fire on “Man, Woman, Wild” (8 p.m., Discovery).

Time for a lockdown on “Haven” (9 p.m., Syfy).

One final mission on “Torchwood” (9 p.m., Starz).

An outdoor garden sprouts vermin on “Rat Busters NYC” (9 p.m., Animal Planet).

Cult choice All work and no play makes Jack (Jack Nicholson) a dull boy in Stanley Kubrick’s 1980 adaptation of Stephen King’s horror novel “The Shining” (8 p.m., BBC America).

Actor Cliff Robertson is 88. Singer Inez Foxx is 69. Singer Dee Dee Sharp is 66. Rock singer-musician Doug Ingle is 65. College Football Hall of Famer and former NFL player Joe

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS For Friday, Sept. 9: This year, be open to the unexpected within a partnership. Your understanding deepens because of a continually developing perception. Travel, a foreigner and education all could play significant roles in your year. If you are single, you could meet someone from a different culture. If you are attached, the two of you benefit from planning that special, long-desired vacation. Aquarius is a good sign for a co-worker.

you want to mend fences with someone who apparently only values you for your swim facilities. If you apologize for upsetting her, she will expect to have complete access to the pool again. The best you can do is smile and say hello when you see her, and hope for the best.

Dear Annie: I once invited my 60-year-old next-door neighbor to swim in our pool.

She then informed me that she would come over daily after dinner and didn’t plan to phone first. As she put it, “It’s not convenient to call every day.”

I tried to tell her politely that the pool is visible from our living room and it is not appropriate for her to use it without our knowledge. We are concerned with our privacy and her safety, not to

Dear Annie: My wife and I have been married for 20 years. I was laid off recently for the second time. While reviewing our finances, I noticed that our cellphone usage had substantially increased. I asked my wife about it, and she explained that she was catching up with friends.

I normally do not look at her phone, but I decided to see who she was yakking with. It turns out she was calling and texting a former male co-worker. I then found a naked photo of the man on her phone. She tried to pass it off as a joke and then said he’d been drinking when he sent it. Additional investigation led me to discover there were plenty of late-night texts and calls, and that she was also sending intimate photos of herself to him.

I feel betrayed and cheated on. We have talked and are working through this situation. I want to ask my cellphone provider for transcripts of their texts just to see if there is more to the situation than she is admitting.

Do you think this is a wise choice? — Feeling Cheated On
