“For our state, the one thing we all have to understand is based on the geography of where we live.

Every lake, every pond is a candidate,” Langer said.

Key to controlling bluegreen algal blooms is better management of the nutrients that run into watersheds and into lakes and ponds. Those nutrients makes it easier for algae to flourish.

TOPEKA — When Robert Siedlecki Jr. took the reins of the state welfare agency, he vowed sweeping changes to establish faith-based initiatives to strengthen marriage and families.

And he certainly had the blessing of his boss, Gov. Sam Brownback.

But recently, Siedlecki’s comments indicate that effort may have changed direction.

In a meeting earlier this month with legislators, when asked about the Kansas Department of Social and Rehabilitation Services’ faithbased initiative, Siedlecki said it Siedlecki didn’t exist.

He said SRS was doing what previous administrations had done, and that was ensuring that faith-based groups “have a seat at the table.”

He added, “They won’t be discriminated against; they won’t be discriminated for,” he said.

That seems a far cry from earlier statements.

In a pre-Memorial Day announcement, Siedlecki reorganized SRS, which included putting Anna Pilato in a new position called Deputy Secretary for Strategic Development and Faith-Based Community Initiatives.

Pilato had served for five years in the Bush administration, including as director of the Center for Faith-Based and Community Initiatives at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

But Pilato, who is making $97,500 per year, says that in her job she wears two hats — strategic development and faith-based initiatives — and that the strategic development part of her job, which includes overseeing the design and development of staff for SRS, is by far the larger of the two.

As far as the faith-based part of her job, she says she is developing a database of faith-based and secular community groups that could be used as a resource.

In his previous experience, Siedlecki also had been senior counsel with the U.S. Justice Department’s faith-based initiative task force under Bush.

In April, Siedlecki met behind closed doors with approximately 20 representatives of groups, many of them faith-based, that shared ideas on preserving marriages and lowering divorce rates. Siedlecki, a divorced father of two, has frequently spoken about the need to preserve families.

But some of those within that group that met with Siedlecki included controversial figures

Low supplies of cancer drugs, painkillers affect patient care

By Karrey Britt kbritt@ljworld.com

There is a growing shortage of pharmaceutical drugs, and it’s affecting patient care in Lawrence and the rest of the country.

Patients are receiving alternative treatments that are less than ideal, Fox treatments are being delayed, and in worse-case scenarios, there are no treatments available.

age expert, said we are in a health care crisis.

“It’s not just happening in rural places. It’s not just happening in small hospitals. This is impacting just about every hospital across the United States,” she said in a recent telephone interview.

Fox is the manager of the Drug Information Service at the University of Utah Hospitals and Clinics in Salt Lake City. The service monitors and verifies shortages for the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists.

So far this year, she said

there are 213 drugs in short supply. That’s triple the 70 drugs reported five years ago. About 80 percent of the shortage is injectable drugs.

“The big blockbuster drugs aren’t the ones that are experiencing shortages. It’s things we need for surgery. Things that we’ve used for 20 years,” she said.

Among them are fentanyl, a pain reliever that is used frequently in operating rooms and intensive care units, and labetalol, which is used to treat high blood pressure.

As the weather cools, days grow shorter and winds pick up, the algal blooms across Kansas are disappearing. And as they do, state agencies are beginning to study just how well they responded to this year’s outbreak and how to better manage future blooms.

“As we go into the winter months, we aren’t just

going to put the binder back on the shelf,” said Tom Langer, KDHE director of the Bureau of Environmental Health.

“We are studying what we have learned. This was the second summer we have been collecting this type of data.”

The KDHE plans to have an epidemiologist look at the health effects of the blooms. They plan to write papers, publish their findings and share the information they’ve gathered with other states.

One thing’s certain: Algal blooms will return next

A survey of local government websites found that Internet browsers can find many — but not all — public records, voluntarily uploaded by public agencies.

The Journal-World examined the websites of the city of Lawrence, Douglas County and the Lawrence school district using an online transparency checklist created by Sunshine Review, a national nonprofit group that advocates for online access to public records.

The checklist looks for records such as audits, budgets, meeting minutes and

information about how to request records.

Here’s how the three agencies stacked up to the adapted checklist, which varies its requirements, making it specific to cities, counties and school districts: ! City of Lawrence: Included online access to all eight categories of public records recommended by the checklist.

who have urged that poor women marry as a way to get out of poverty, that states repeal no-fault divorce and that polygamy was more in line with common values than same-sex marriage.

Recently, SRS applied for a $6.6 million grant to pay for either faith-based or secular counseling that encouraged unwed parents to marry.

Under the proposal, if the couple completed counseling, the state would pay the $86.50 marriage license fee.

But the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services rejected the grant.

Despite Siedlecki’s comments, which seem to be backing away from faithbased efforts, SRS spokeswoman Angela de Rocha said he has not changed strategy.

“There is no departure from what the secretary intended to do when he took office, which was bring more groups to the table to contribute to SRS’ mission, including faith-based organizations, such as churches,” she said.

She added, “There are no separate, free-standing faithbased initiatives. Rather, the object is to undergird SRS efforts already under way, for example, promoting adoption and working to help reduce childhood poverty.

There are no new programs per se.”

1 | TURKEY

Quake kills at least 138 Cries of panic and horror filled the air as a 7.2-magnitude earthquake struck eastern Turkey, killing at least 138 people as buildings pancaked and crumpled into rubble. The death toll was expected to rise as rescuers sifted through the rubble and reached outlying villages.

Tens of thousands fled into the streets running, screaming or trying to reach relatives on cellphones as apartment and office buildings cracked or collapsed. As the full extent of the damage became clear, survivors dug in with shovels or even their bare hands, desperately trying to rescue the trapped and the injured.

The hardest hit area was Ercis, an eastern city of 75,000 close to the Iranian border, which lies on one of Turkey’s most earthquake-prone zones. The bustling city of Van, about 55 miles to the south, also sustained substantial damage. Highways in the area caved in. The temblor struck at 1:41 p.m. local time, or 5:41 a.m. CDT, the U.S. Geological Survey said.

EUDORA SCHOOLS

Standards-based grades extend to 3rd grade

By Mark Fagan mfagan@ljworld.com

Just like their colleagues in Lawrence, officials in the Eudora school district are busy dropping letter grades as they extend standards-based grading system to older students this academic year.

Unlike administrators in Lawrence, they’re not hearing any complaints from middle-school parents crowding into school board meetings upset about

communication, a lack of planning and inability to motivate students as they prepare to advance in a competitive world.

Maybe that’s because the Eudora system is inching its system into third grade.

“For parents to know exactly what a child is mastering is more definitive than a letter grade, and parents like that,” said Shelley Dougherty, assistant principal at Eudora Elementary School. “At this level, parents like this. We’ve had no

problems at all.”

Third-graders at Eudora Elementary School no longer are receiving letter grades for the first quarter. Their marks are being replaced by a series of pluses and minuses indicative of a standards-based model.

The system is designed to assess each child’s “educational growth in a more meaningful manner,” Dougherty said This shift isn’t creating the uproar that surfaced in Lawrence, where parents and teachers of

sixth-graders have come to the Lawrence school board — twice — seeking answers about why a standards-based model used for years in elementary schools had been moved up into middle schools, which sixth-graders are attending for the first time.

Lawrence sixth-graders still get letter grades, just as they did in elementary school, but the system has spurred changes in report forms, grading standards Please see GRADING, page 4A

Dozens dig up facts on museum’s rock, fossil findings

2 | ARGENTINA

President wins landslide re-election President Cristina Fernandez was re-elected in a landslide Sunday, winning with the widest victory margin in Argentina’s history after her government spread the wealth of a booming economy.

Fernandez had 53 percent of the vote after 58 percent of the polling stations reported nationwide.

Her nearest challenger got just 17 percent. Interior Minister Florencio Randazzo predicted the president’s share would rise as polls reported from her party’s stronghold of densely populated Buenos Aires province.

“Count on me to continue pursuing the project,” Fernandez vowed in her victory speech. “All I want is to keep collaborating ... to keep Argentina growing. I want to keep changing history.”

Fernandez is Latin America’s first woman to be re-elected as president, but the victory was personally bittersweet — the first without her husband and predecessor, Nestor Kirchner, who died of a heart attack last Oct. 27.

Clinton to Iran: Don’t misread departure

The Kansas University Natural History Museum displayed dozens of fossils on Sunday and offered amateur fossil hunters a chance to identify their finds.

The event, “What on Earth?

Rocks, Fossils and Meteorites,” gave visitors the chance to learn about the museum’s collection, as well as which fossils they could expect to find in the area.

“The Natural History Museum is here to serve the public,” said Jen Humphrey, communications director at the museum. “They can learn not all fossils are dinosaurs.”

Indeed, there was much more to see than dinosaurs.

The event had several display tables dedicated to different species of plants, insects, mammals and even sea monsters.

One of the tables featured fossils found in the Kansas River, bones of ancient elk, bison and beaver. These extinct ancestors were far bigger than their present-day descendants; the archaic beaver would have been over four feet long with five-inch teeth.

David Burnham, a paleontologist at the KU Biodiversity Institute, talked with

visitors and showed off the institute’s newest addition: a dinosaur skull found in Montana, still encased in rock and wrapped in a plaster jacket.

“It comes as a giant 600-pound plaster boulder,” Burnham said. He is now in the process of extracting the skull from the stone.

The event also showcased smaller fossils from around the area. Andrew Bireta, 12, brought a box of fossils he found near Kansas Highway 10, east of Eudora, to be identified. They included plants and small clams from more than 300 million years ago.

Dozens of people came to the museum, 1345 Jayhawk Blvd., to learn from the institute’s researchers and KU graduate students.

“If people have any questions, they’re always welcome to bring it to our lab,” said Carla Harper, a graduate student from Del Rio, Texas.

“We really support that.”

Humphrey said the museum periodically holds events to educate the public. She also said it was a great chance to showcase the institute’s vast collection, which includes more than 9 million specimens.

Iran should not misread the withdrawal of American troops from Iraq as affecting the U.S. commitment to the fledgling democracy, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton said Sunday.

President Barack Obama’s announcement Friday that all American troops would return from Iraq by the end of the year will close a chapter on U.S.-Iraq relations that began in 2003 with the U.S.-led invasion to overthrow Saddam Hussein.

Washington has long worried that meddling by Iran, a Shiite Muslim theocracy, could inflame tensions between Iraq’s Shiite-led government and its minority Sunnis, setting off a chain reaction of violence and disputes across the Mideast.

Clinton said in a series of news show interviews that the U.S. would continue its training mission with Iraq and that it would resemble operations in Colombia and elsewhere. While the U.S. will not have combat troops in Iraq, she said the American presence would remain strong because of its bases in the region.

“Iran would be badly miscalculating if they did not look at the entire region and all of our presence in many countries in the region, both in bases, in training, with NATO allies, like Turkey,” she told CNN’s “State of the Union.”

Paul wants to end federal student loans

chong@ljworld.com

Republican presidential contender Ron Paul said Sunday he wants to end federal student loans, calling it a failed program that has put students $1 trillion in debt when there are no jobs and when the quality of education has deteriorated.

Paul unveiled a plan last week to cut $1 trillion from the federal budget that would eliminate five Cabinet departments, including education. He’s also wants young workers to be able to opt out of Social Security.

The student loan program is not part of those cuts, but Paul said Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that he’d kill the loan program eventually if he were president. That could put him at odds with some of his young followers, many of whom are college students.

Kansas University Hillel, Concerned Active and Aware Students and the Jubilee Café are teaming up to fight hunger in Lawrence.

On Sunday, they hosted the first Challah for Humanity workshop at the First United Methodist Church, 946 Vt. More than 30 people prepared challah, a traditional Jewish bread that is braided. They sold the bread at the church, and at various greek houses and scholarship halls at KU. The group will donate proceeds to the Lawrence Community Shelter and Just Food.

“We’re trying to make it monthly,”

Love Where You Live

said Nora Freyman, event coordinator and a KU student.

Dana Wilensky, a KU student from Minneapolis, Minn., helped prepare the challah, pronounced “hallah.” After mixing in raisins or chocolate chips, she separated the dough into three rolls and carefully braided them together. Then, she coated it in egg white to give it a shiny finish.

“It’s a good way to spend the weekend,” she said.

Challah contains sugar and eggs, giving it its yellow tint. Cooper Nickel, a KU student from Linsdborg, said the bread pairs well with honey.

Writer calls for better sustainability foresight

By Christine Metz cmetz@ljworld.com

In 2007, Bryan Welch nearly killed himself on a twisty mountain road in Oregon.

He was on a motorcycle and entering what is the bane of inexperienced riders — a curve that begins with a gentle arc and gradually becomes smaller. To successfully ride through it, a rider leans into the curve and visualizes the exit.

But Welch lost his nerve.

He did what motorcyclists are never supposed to do. He slowed down in the middle of a high-speed curve. He quickly found himself bouncing off a guardrail and went down in the middle of the road at 50 mph.

He walked away from the crash with some major bruises, a ruined helmet and a new perspective on the country’s environmental movement.

Welch, a Lawrence resident and publisher of Mother Earth News, shares the story of the crash in his recently released book, “Beautiful and Abundant.” And as he does, he compares his fear of not being able to successfully navigate the curve to how

Bryan Welch humans are preparing for the future.

To him, worries about climate change and other doom-and-gloom environmental disaster scenarios are the guardrail that is occupying too much of our attention and keeping us from envisioning a positive future.

“I didn’t wreck because the curve wasn’t rideable. I didn’t wreck because I didn’t know how to carve my way through a corner. I wrecked because I lost confidence in completing it successfully,” Welch said in a recent interview. “We are in danger of

becoming so distracted by environmental obstacles that we forget to plan for the future we want to create.”

By nature, Welch is an optimist. But even he had a sense of environmental foreboding in his 20s.

“I came to realize how counterproductive that state of mind was,” he said.

Welch is publisher and editorial director of Ogden Publications, a Topeka-based company that publishes Natural Home and Garden and Utne Reader along with Mother Earth News.

So what’s the world that Welch envisions?

It’s one where there are true pieces of wilderness on every continent and for every environment.

Welch’s picture of the future involves a new kind of capitalism where companies are valued not just on superficial costs, but their ability to conscientiously make things that are truly durable.

He’d like to see a world were creativity is rewarded and no one is excluded from financial success, regardless

and computer systems since the beginning of the school year, leading to confusion and concern.

In Eudora, teachers are proceeding as usual. Parents are showing up for conferences, with teachers explaining the standards-based system that they themselves support.

The Eudora district’s Curriculum Coordinating Council — a 23-member group composed of parents, teachers and administrators — approved plans in March to extend the grading system used in kindergarten, first and second grades into third grade for this year.

“We’re talking about third grade,” said Marla Johnson, curriculum director for the Eudora school district and math teacher at Eudora Middle School. “We know better than to jump into the middle school fray.”

The system is the same as Lawrence’s: Teachers rate students based on “indicators,” or skills, that correspond with district standards that are based state requirements. While the list of such skills has been reduced to six for each subject for Law-

The math report card, for example, carries 22 indicators awaiting pluses or minuses, ranging from “compares and orders whole numbers from zero to 10,000” to “finds the median with an odd number of data points.”

Parents, then, can see how their child is doing in specific areas of class, Johnson said, rather than having to extrapolate strengths and weaknesses from an overall letter grade. And the reports — again, like those in Lawrence — cover learner behaviors, such as “solves personal problems independently” and “strives for neat, accurate work.”

“Parents need to know where the problems are occurring, so if interventions need to take place, then we have something on paper to talk about,” Johnson said.

Lawrence parents have expressed concern that the Lawrence district has

“It is important when visualizing to set aside what you think of as a given fact and to (visualize) without being too realistic,” he said.

While Welch’s book isn’t available in any local bookstores, it can be purchased at Amazon.com, where it has had success in a digital format.

His hope is that it will reach out to those who don’t traditionally read books on sustainability and prompt them to start thinking about it.

“If we don’t visualize achievement, our chances of realizing that achievement are virtually nil,” Welch said.

Welch will discuss his book at 3 p.m. Nov. 3 at the Dole Institute of Politics, 2350 Petefish Drive.

Democrats get energized in Wichita WICHITA — Kansas Democrats are looking toward 2012 after attending an annual event this past weekend in Wichita.

The Wichita Eagle reported that the focus of this year’s DemoFest was preparing for the upcoming elections after taking a beating in 2010.

Kansas Democratic Party chairwoman Joan Wagnon says the party faithful were told they don’t have to accept the results of the past election as the trend.

The attendees included local activists, county chairs and young Democrats. They participated in seminars focused on sending the right message, fundraising strategies and recruiting new candidates.

HOLIDAY RETAIL JOBS ADDED OCT., NOV. AND DEC.

sdhittle@ljworld.com

Though he expects the typical spike in holiday shopping and sales this year, Tom Wilkerson, owner of Jayhawk Spirit, 935 Mass., said that won’t lead to any increase in staffing.

“It’s not enough of a boost to bump (staff) up,” Wilkerson said. Instead, existing staff will likely just work more hours to compensate for the increase in business.

“We just tough it out.”

And economic analysts, despite a slight expected increase in retail sales this year, say the retail hiring outlook between October and December is expected to remain flat.

“The hiring hasn’t picked up,” said Robert Brusca, chief economist at the New Yorkbased research firm Factand-Opinion. Brusca said retailers just don’t yet have enough confidence in the market, and there are “still a lot of questions.”

Statistics on retail holiday hiring show sharp increases and decreases since 2007, when retailers hired more than 700,000 workers during the holiday season. Those numbers dipped by several hundred thousand in 2008 and 2009, before bumping back up in 2010, according to the research firm Challenger, Gray and Christmas Inc. So, retailers are hiring, just not at pre-recession levels.

And that shouldn’t discourage people looking for seasonal work, said John Challenger, chief executive officer of Challenger, Gray and Christmas Inc. “Even if seasonal hiring is flat, we are still talking about an extra 620,000 being added to retail payrolls, beginning in October,” Challenger said in his firm’s annual hiring outlook news release.

Challenger said job-seekers should look to the larger “big-box” stores, which typi-

! 2007: 720,800 ! 2008: 324,900 ! 2009: 495,800 ! 2010: 627,600 ! 2011: 620,000 (Pre-

dicted)

cally hire more workers to accommodate a larger volume of sales.

“The big box stores need extra workers on the floor, but they also need extra workers in their shipping facilities and overnight stocking positions,” he said.

What that means for some larger local retail stores isn’t clear. Several contacted by the Journal-World did not respond to phone calls, and others, such as Best Buy, would only release national hiring estimates. A Best Buy spokesperson said the company expects to add 15,000 workers, but wouldn’t say how many jobs would be added to the Lawrence store.

Challenger said the best way for job-seekers to get their foot in the door is to network and make connections at stores they shop at.

“The key is separating oneself from the pile of applicants the store will see between now and Halloween,” he said.

plans for extending the use of standards-based reports into seventh and eighth grades — as indicated in an August letter to parents from the district — but the Eudora district isn’t going that far, at least not anytime soon.

“There’s no talk of it at this time,” Johnson said. “If we did something like that, we would definitely consider fourth grade and fifth grade long before we’d consider middle school. Once they get into a secondary level, it’s more difficult. High school?

That’s still pretty (letter) grade-dependent, and colleges are still looking at (letter) grades.”

Q: A:

When does Daylight Saving Time end?

ON THE RECORD

LAW ENFORCEMENT REPORT • A 19-year-old Lawrence man was arrested early Sunday morning after a fight outside a residence in the 1700 block of Kentucky.

Lawrence Police Sgt. Kirk Fultz said a fight occurred about 1 a.m. outside the house after a group interrupted a birthday party. Fultz said two men who were battered said someone showed a knife during the fight.

The knife was not used, and the men sustained minor facial injuries.

When police arrived, two men fled the scene, and police picked up Dauda Sheriff a few blocks away. A victim positively identified him, and police arrested him for aggravated assault and interference with police duties.

change. It takes decades and decades to get to a condition like this. And it will take decades before we resolve this,” Langer said.

One community in Kansas already has begun to take serious steps. Great Bend, which has had a blue-green algal problem in a community lake since January, is looking at ways to restore its watershed and better manage what flows into the drainage area. Langer hopes lessons learned in Great Bend can be applied throughout Kansas.

Last summer, the state got a glimpse of just how bad it could get when Kansas’ largest reservoir, Milford Lake, was closed to swimming, wading and water skiing for nearly three months.

Last week, an algal bloom that had been festering in Milford Lake since the end of June returned to normal levels. But it was far too late to attract many of the visitors who had stayed away during those hot summer days.

“It scared away a lot of people,”, said Jan Boan, who owns the Flagstop Resort and RV Park, a campground on the edge of the lake.

After Labor Day, most people packed up and went home, Boan said.

“There’s not much going on outside other than fishermen in the water,” she said last week.

A unique set of circumstances made the algal bloom at Milford Lake particularly bad this summer. At the base of the lake is nutrient-rich soil.

Even more nutrients were absorbed this year when upstream flooding pushed the reservoir 15 feet above its normal level. And for much of the summer, none of that extra water could be released from Milford because of downstream flooding.

And then there were the days upon days of 100-degree temperatures.

“It was a giant Petri dish,” Langer said.

The toxic algal bloom in Milford Lake had a far reach.

When floodwaters finally receded downstream in late August, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers released water from Milford Lake. When the water flowed through the Kansas River it brought with it toxic levels of blue-green algae that could be detected all the way to Johnson County. Those levels prompted the city of Lawrence to stop pulling water from the Kansas River.

Tests later showed that the blue-green algae levels weren’t be detected in treated drinking water. But it was one example of just how interconnected watersheds are.

“We want people to understand the severity of it. It’s not just white noise, Chicken Little or a boy crying wolf,” Langer said of the bluegreen algae outbreaks and the health of the state’s aging lakes. “It is going to affect every single one of us. We rely on water. It’s important that we are taking the proper steps.”

Sediment creates issues in Kan. lakes, reservoirs

WICHITA (AP) — Dirt is slowly filling lakes and ponds in Kansas, and experts are divided over how much to worry.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers reports that there is still plenty of room for flood control, but some experts fear the influx of silt will threaten water supplies, The Wichita Eagle reported.

About 60 percent of Kansas residents currently get their water from lakes, and the number is expected to grow. To understand the issue, experts point to John Redmond Reservoir, which supplies water to several Kansas towns and the Wolf Creek nuclear plant. It has only about 58 percent of its original capacity.

“John Redmond is our poster child,” said Earl Lewis, Kansas Water Office assistant director. “It now has such a low average depth and has lost more than 40 percent of its storage area to sediment. If there’s one place in Kansas where we could (soon) have a problem with our water supply, it’s probably it. You wonder what would happen if we’d get a (long-term) drought like in the ‘50s.”

Long-term fixes are neither cheap nor quick. The cost of dredging a large reservoir could cost $1 billion. Building a new one would be even more costly and could take 20 years from initial planning to completion.

The Kansas Water Office, charged with long-term planning for future drinking water supplies, ranks the problem on par with the depletion of the Ogallala Aquifer because of its threat the longterm quality and quantity of our water.

“They’re going to fill up with their natural surroundings, soil and clay,” said Jerry de Noyelles, the deputy director of the Kansas Biological Survey, of the state’s lakes. “It’s nobody’s fault; nothing was done wrong. We have always known the lakes inherently weren’t going to last very long.”

Most of Kansas’ major reservoirs were built with 100year lifespans. Many are now 50 to 60 years old.

Already there are issues.

We return to Central Standard Time at 2 a.m. Nov. 6.

This is the fifth year of extended Daylight Saving Time. President George W. Bush signed into law a broad energy bill that extended Daylight Saving Time by four weeks beginning in 2007.

Since 1986 the United States had observed Daylight Saving Time from the first Sunday in April through the last Sunday in October. The provisions of the latest bill called for Daylight Saving Time to begin three weeks earlier on DOUGLAS COUNTY the second Sunday in March DISTRICT COURT and end on the first Sunday MARRIAGE LICENSES ISSUED in November.

many Kansas lakes. Toxins from the algae contaminate the water, causing treatment plants to spend more to produce clean drinking water.

But the Corps of Engineers isn’t panicking, noting that sedimentation rates were factored into the planning of all of their reservoirs.

Much of the current sediment has accumulated where it has little effect on the lake’s main uses, said Corps of Engineers hydrologist Stephen Spaulding. He noted that Perry Reservoir has about 15 feet of sediment in the lake’s main body, but there’s still about 50 feet of water in some places.

“We’re not going to worry about it. Who knows what regional needs will be in 20 to 30 years from now,” Spaulding said. “When that time comes, we’ll work with people to see if we can modify plans accordingly.”

Spaulding said one option is to simply increase what is considered a lake’s normal level a few feet, which could prolong a reservoir’s life 20 years. Most of the federal projects include huge areas of land around the lakes so the lake levels can be raised if needed.

“For all practical purposes it really doesn’t affect the actual operation at the lake,” Spaulding said. “As the pool gets higher, the space is increased dramatically, too.”

But that approach doesn’t necessarily work with nonfederal water supply lakes because they often are surrounded by houses and docks.

“Raise the water level a few feet in some places, like Gardner City Lake, and it will be in somebody’s living room,” de Noyelles said.

Rep. Tom Sloan, R-Lawrence, and Sen. Carolyn McGinn, R-Sedgwick, have been trying to push for solutions in Topeka for several years.

They agree that the state needs to expand programs that decrease sedimentation by stabilizing soil along rivers and streams that drain into lakes.

But both said the state is headed in the wrong direction for such programs.

“The state water office has been very underfunded for the last four years,” McGinn said. “Some of the programs that really decrease sediment are some of the ones that are being cut.”

Libya declared free, but Gadhafi death questioned

BRIEFLY Will Ferrell awarded top humor prize WASHINGTON — Will Ferrell, who refined his impersonation of President George W. Bush on “Saturday Night Live” and later took his presidential act to Broadway, was awarded the nation’s top humor prize Sunday night.

The TV star went on to make movies and co-found the popular website FunnyorDie. com in a career that won the 44-year-old the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor from the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts.

It was the Bush impression, though, that might have made the Washington crowd laugh — and cringe — the hardest Sunday.

“Washington is not a city much known for its comedy — at least not the intentional kind,” said PBS news anchor Gwen Ifill, who mentored Ferrell on his journalistic skills for the movie “Anchorman.”

She introduced a clip of Ferrell playing Bush in “You’re Welcome, America: A Final Night with George W. Bush” on Broadway. Dressed in a flight suit under a banner that read “Mission Accomplished” in a mock Oval Office he explained how Morocco had sent a special unit of 2,000 trained monkeys to fight terrorism “and make children laugh.”

With that kind of comedy, Ferrell had accomplished something amazing, Ifill said.

Conan O’Brien, Jack Black, Matthew Broderick, Ben Stiller and Billie Joe Armstrong from the rock band Green Day performed Sunday in Ferrell’s honor, joined by Molly Shannon, Tim Meadows and Andy Samberg from Ferrell’s “SNL” days.

The show was taped for broadcast Oct. 31 on PBS stations nationwide.

MARK LINDQUIST, OF JOPLIN, MO., IS EMBRACED BY HIS SISTERS Vehrlene Crosswhite, left, and Linda Baldwin just before being released from the Missouri Rehabilitation Center in Mount Vernon, Mo., in this Oct. 3 photo. Lindquist is an underpaid social worker who nearly gave his life trying to save three developmentally disabled adults from the Joplin tornado.

But his workers’ compensation claim was denied “based on the fact that there was no greater risk than the general public at the time you were involved in the Joplin tornado,” according to Accident Fund Insurance Company of America.

Joplin tornado survivor denied workers’ comp

By Jim Salter Associated Press

JOPLIN, MO. — By all accounts, Mark Lindquist is a hero, an underpaid social worker who nearly gave his life trying to save three developmentally disabled adults from the Joplin tornado. Both houses of the Missouri legislature honored Lindquist, the Senate resolution calling him “a true hero and inspiration to others.”

But heroism doesn’t pay the bills. The tornado’s 200 mph winds tossed Lindquist nearly a block, broke every rib, obliterated his shoulder, knocked out most of his teeth and put him in a coma for about two months.

Lindquist, 51, ran up medical expenses that exceed $2.5 million, and the bills keep coming. He requires 11 daily prescriptions and will need more surgery.

But he has no medical insurance. Lindquist couldn’t afford it on a job paying barely above minimum wage. He assumed workers’ compensation would cover his bills, but his claim was denied “based on the fact that there was no greater risk than the general public at the time you were involved in the Joplin tornado,” according to a letter to Lindquist from Accident Fund Insurance Company of America, his company’s workers’ comp provider.

That reasoning has angered Lindquist’s family, employer, even lawmakers.

“I think they need to take another look at the circumstances and revisit the claim,” state Rep. Bill Lant, R-Joplin, said. “What he did went beyond heroics.”

TRIPOLI, LIBYA — Libya’s interim rulers declared the country liberated on Sunday after an 8-month civil war, launching the oil-rich nation on what is meant to be a two-year transition to democracy. But they laid out plans with an Islamist tone that could rattle their Western backers.

The joyful ceremony formally Gadhafi marking the end of Moammar Gadhafi’s 42-year tyranny was also clouded by mounting pressure from the leaders of the NATO campaign that helped secure victory to investigate whether Gadhafi, dragged wounded but alive out of a drainage ditch last week, was then executed by his captors.

The circumstances of Gadhafi’s death remain unclear.

In separate accounts late Sunday, two Libyan fighters said Gadhafi was hurt after being captured, but was able to stand. One said that when he and others placed Gadhafi in an ambulance, the former Libyan leader had not yet suffered what Libya’s chief pathologist said was a fatal gunshot to the head.

Critics said the gruesome spectacle of his bloodstreaked body laid out as a trophy for a third day of public viewing in a commercial freezer tests the new leadership’s commitment to the rule of law.

Britain’s defense secretary, Philip Hammond, said the Libyan revolutionaries’ image had been “a little bit stained” by Gadhafi’s violent death. Both he and U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton said a full investigation is necessary.

Gadhafi’s capture and the

fall of his hometown of Sirte, the last loyalist stronghold, set the stage for the longawaited declaration of liberation, delivered by the head of the National Transitional Council, Mustafa Abdul-Jalil.

He did not mention the circumstances surrounding Gadhafi’s death — mobile phone videos showed the wounded leader being taunted and beaten by a mob after his capture. But he urged his people to avoid hatred.

“You should only embrace honesty, patience, and mercy,” Abdul-Jalil told a flag-waving crowd of several thousand at the declaration ceremony in the eastern city of Benghazi, the birthplace of the uprising against Gadhafi.

Abdul-Jalil laid out a vision for a new Libya with an Islamist tint, saying Islamic Sharia law would be the “basic source” of legislation, and that existing laws that contradict the teachings of Islam would be nullified.

Alabama civil rights icon praised

By Errin Haines Associated Press

BIRMINGHAM, ALA. — The Rev. Fred Shuttlesworth, often eclipsed by the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. in life, was praised Sunday as the catalyst who brought the civil rights movement to Birmingham and launched King into immortality.

Those who knew him best urged others to continue the tireless example he set, working long after victory in the 1963 campaign to liberate the segregated Southern city he called home. Fellow preachers, foot soldiers from the movement, and members of his family told a crowd gathered at the historic 16th Street Baptist Church that for all of his heroic efforts, the fiery minister’s work remains undone.

Attorney General Eric Holder told the audience: “Without him, there would be no me.”

“We are bound by more than sorrow,” Holder said.

“We are united by our shared admiration of Reverend Shuttlesworth, by our deep appreciation of his legacy, and perhaps most importantly by our collective responsibility to carry on his critical work, and to live up to the example

of service that he left to us.”

A parade of clergy lined up to give Shuttlesworth his due at the memorial, which lasted nearly three hours. Five decades ago, when a little-known black Baptist preacher named Martin Luther King took the helm of the Montgomery, Ala., bus boycott in 1955, Shuttlesworth was already in Birmingham trying to start a movement, but hardly anyone was paying attention.

Shuttlesworth was from a small church. His credentials and pedigree made it easy for local whites to dismiss him as a radical. Until King came to Birmingham, Shuttlesworth couldn’t get the national press to recognize his city as the embodiment of the horrors of the segregated South.

He was just another black preacher getting beat up, said former Atlanta mayor, congressman and United Nations ambassador Andrew Young, who worked alongside King and Shuttlesworth in the Southern Christian Leadership Conference. All three men helped establish the organization in 1957.

“They were sued together, they helped organize SCLC together,” Young said of King and Shuttlesworth. “He

wanted the spotlight very much, but there wasn’t but one Martin Luther King.”

It was King who won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1964 and went on to become the icon of the civil rights movement. Shuttlesworth, who was overshadowed in life by his comrade in the movement, was again eclipsed

by King in death.

Though he died nearly three weeks ago, Shuttlesworth is only now being buried today.

The reason for the delay: The dedication of the King Memorial on the National Mall, sending most of Shuttlesworth’s civil rights colleagues to Washington last weekend.

Had they not been there, they would have likely been in Birmingham remembering Shuttlesworth. His funeral will be today.

After Iraq, U.S. may shift approach to war

THIS UNDATED PHOTO PROVIDED BY EARTHCAM SHOWS the Statue of Liberty in New York Harbor, New York, through a fisheye lens mounted in its torch. Five torch cams will be switched on Friday during a ceremony to commemorate the statue’s anniversary. The five cameras, which will be on 24/7, were donated to the National Park Service by Earthcam Inc., a New Jersey-based company that manages a network of webcams around the world.

By Cristian Salazar and Randy Herschaft

Lady Liberty is getting hightech gifts for her 125th birthday: webcams on her torch that will let viewers gaze out at New York Harbor and read the tablet in her hands or see visitors on the grounds of the island below in real time.

The five torch cams are to be switched on Friday during a ceremony to commemorate the dedication of the Statue of Liberty on Oct. 28, 1886.

The ceremony caps a week of events centered around the historic date, including the debut of a major museum exhibition about poet Emma Lazarus, who helped bring the monument renown as the “Mother of Exiles.”

The statue’s webcams will offer views from the torch that have been unavailable to the public since 1916, said Stephen A. Briganti, the president of the Statue of LibertyEllis Island Foundation Inc. “The statue is the most famous symbol in the world,” he said. “Most of the people in the world have seen it, but they have not seen it like this.

It will be a visit that so many people, including New Yorkers, have never taken before.”

Through the webcams, Internet users around the world will have four views, including a high-quality, 180-degree stitched panorama of the harbor with stunning views of Ellis and Governors islands.

They will be able to watch as

ships go by Liberty Island and observe as the Freedom Tower at the World Trade Center goes up floor-by-floor in lower Manhattan. They can get a fish-eye look at the torch itself as it glows in the night.

The five cameras, which will be on 24 hours, seven days a week, were donated to the National Park Service by Earthcam Inc., a New Jerseybased company that manages webcams around the world.

The cameras put viewers on the balcony of the torch and high above the crown, said Brian Cury, the founder of Earthcam.

“This is not your dad’s picture of the Statue of Liberty,” he said. “This is not a view from a tourist helicopter.

This is unique.”

Friday’s ceremony also will be marked by a water flotilla, actress Sigourney Weaver reading Lazarus’ poem and a naturalization ceremony for 125 candidates for citizenship representing over 40 countries.

The public is invited to attend the ceremony, with ferry service available between Manhattan and Liberty Island. The interior of the statue — from the pedestal down to the museum base — will close after the 125th celebration for up to a year so that stairwells, elevators and mechanical systems can be upgraded. The park itself will remain open to visitors.

BALI, INDONESIA — In the final days of the U.S. war in Iraq, the outlook for America’s military entanglements is markedly different from the confusing, convulsive first days.

Early on Iraq looked, to many, like one in a string of big conflicts in a “war on terror.”

That was the view of John Abizaid when the now-retired Army general led U.S. forces in Iraq in 2003-04. At a U.S. base in northern Iraq one day in early 2004, Abizaid told soldiers preparing to return home that he hoped they would remain in uniform and keep building combat experience.

Asked by an Associated Press reporter why he had made that pitch, Abizaid said, “I think the country is going to face more of these (ground wars) in the years ahead.”

That was a widely accepted, and often dreaded, view at the time.

Now, with the last American troops set to depart by year’s end, Iraq seems more likely to signal an end to such long and enormously costly undertakings in the name of preventing another terrorist attack on U.S. soil — at least under the administration of President Barack Obama. He opposed the Iraq war and has declared that “the tides of war are receding.”

With Obama also pledging to end the U.S. combat role in Afghanistan within three years, the military’s focus is turning to places such as Yemen and Somalia.

There, the approach is different. Aerial drones, proxy forces and small teams of U.S. commandos are the preferred formula for containing the Islamic extremists who would plot terrorist attacks against the U.S. Libya, too, has so far been a case for limited U.S. military intervention. The U.S. cleared the sky ahead of a NATO-led air campaign to protect civilians without putting any troops on the ground.

It took about eight months and cost the U.S. about $1.1 billion to achieve the Libyan rebels’ goal of toppling Col. Moammar Gadhafi.

The potential for bigger conflicts persists in places such as Pakistan, whose growing arsenal of nuclear weapons sets it apart from other potential hot spots.

Iran is a major worry, too, in light of its suspected drive to build a nuclear bomb and its proclaimed goal of wiping out Israel. But a U.S. invasion of Iran, on a scale like Iraq, seems highly unlikely for now.

There are other troublesome security challenges facing the U.S., including in Asia where China is expanding its military and asserting its influence.

GOP primary now a contest of character

By Beth Fouhy Associated Press

NEW YORK — The Republican presidential race has become a no-holds-barred contest over character.

With the pace of the GOP contest quickening, Mitt Romney and Rick Perry are resorting to tough language online and while campaigning to undermine each other’s credibility and values.

“It’s time for you to tell the truth,” Perry said during last week’s Republican debate, all but calling the former Massachusetts governor a liar.

The Texas governor also is trying to cast Romney as someone who lacks a core set of beliefs, highlighting Romney’s shifts on health care and other issues in hopes of dislodging him from atop the field.

Romney is portraying Perry as a dimwitted novice who coddles illegal immigrants and takes liberties with his economic record.

“The great challenges we have we will overcome,” Romney said in South Dakota recently, “if we have leaders that will tell the truth, and live with integrity, and who, by virtue of their life

experience, know how to lead.” It was a suggestion that Perry didn’t fit that bill.

T h e amped-up Perry rhetoric signals a more aggressive phase in the race and sets the tone in the 10 weeks before the nominating contest begins in Iowa Romney in early January. It also illuminates campaign strategies and previews likely attack ads sure to surface on television soon.

It’s raised concerns among some Republicans, who fear a drawn-out, personal battle between their top contenders will only help President Barack Obama’s chances of winning next year.

“I don’t like that, I’m not for that. I’m a Ronald Reagan Republican, he didn’t think it was smart to attack each other and I don’t either,” oil billionaire T. Boone Pickens told Fox News

last week after Romney and Perry got in each other’s faces during the Las Vegas debate.

Despite their oft-stated reverence for Reagan, the two leading Republican hopefuls are ignoring Reagan’s socalled 11th commandment: “Thou shalt not speak ill of any fellow Republican.”

Romney, seen as the Republican to beat, has identified Perry as his top rival, even with businessman Herman Cain polling well and lower-tier contenders such as Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum drawing positive buzz in debates.

Only Perry has been able to compete with Romney in fundraising and the two are expected to have enough resources for a protracted national campaign if necessary. Both have the backing of powerful special political action committees that can raise unlimited funds to run attack ads of their own.

But the Obama approach — not unique, but distinctive in comparison to that of his predecessor, George W. Bush — is to try to prevent festering security problems from growing into full-blown crises.

The U.S. military can play a role in those cases without being called on to invade and depose a government.

Robert Gates captured this idea in a speech last winter to Army caGates dets at the U.S. Military Academy in which he said it would be unwise to ever fight another war like Iraq or Afghanistan.

“In my opinion, any future defense secretary who advises the president to again send a big American land army into Asia or into the Middle East or Africa should ‘have his head examined,’ as General MacArthur so delicately put it,” Gates said.

Even with the Iraq exit in sight, the U.S. military is unlikely to wash its hands of the problems it will leave behind after nearly nine years of fighting. Wars don’t end that neatly, and it is yet to be seen whether U.S. troops take on new missions in Iraq in 2012 to keep the country on track.

Obama is ending the U.S. role in the Iraq war, but that does not necessarily mean the war itself is ending.

Al-Qaida in Iraq remains.

Ethnic and sectarian tensions persist. Chaos could again descend upon the country, testing the resilience of Iraqis who suffered enormously under Saddam Hussein and again during the U.S. war.

Even after the U.S. declares an end to its presence in Iraq in December, about 157 U.S. service personnel are expected to remain, working out of the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad under Army Lt. Gen. Robert Caslen.

Trash options A city task force needs to start putting some numbers to possible changes in city trash services.

T

here is a lot of talk about trash in Lawrence.

Community members are wondering whether they’ll be required to use special city-issued carts instead of their old trash cans. They are questioning whether their monthly trash bill should include a fee for curbside recycling services, whether or not they use such services. Questions also are swirling about whether the city’s popular yard waste collection service will continue as it does today or if changes are on tap.

The city’s volunteer Solid Waste Task Force should be congratulated for its work thus far. The members have been committed to exploring ways that the city’s trash and recycling services can be improved, and they plan to have further discussions making their recommendations at the end of the year.

The group, however, has not done much in the way of producing numbers — primarily how much some of these changes might cost. It is understandable that the group did not start with the cost question. It was appropriate to have some broad discussions about what the best system could look like regardless of cost.

But now it is time for the trash discussion to enter a new phase. It is critical that city leaders begin putting some cost estimates to potential changes to the city’s trash and recycling system. Those cost estimates should not be limited only to the recommended changes that come out of the task force. Cost estimates for other options also should be developed so that residents can make meaningful comparisons.

Among the options the city ought to develop cost estimates for are: !" once-per-week trash service, once-perweek curbside recycling service and once-perweek yard waste service (during the spring, summer and fall, as is currently done); !" once-per-week trash service, every-otherweek curbside recycling service and every-other-week yard waste collection; !" once-per-week trash service, once-perweek curbside recycling and a subscription service that would allow residents to pay an extra fee if they want to use yard waste services; !" an estimate of how much rates likely will have to increase if the city makes no changes at all to its trash system. It is likely city rates would increase under a status quo scenario because landfill tipping fees are increasing and the city’s aging trash truck fleet will need replacing.

Estimates also should include how much the city might save in personnel costs by switching to automated trucks and how much curbside recycling could be expected to save the city in tipping fees. As the city develops these estimates, they should try to account for how much it will cost the city to provide these services versus what a private company would charge the city.

The trash discussion will be an important one, and probably an emotional one. Changing a weekly habit like how people put out their trash will produce a surprising amount of engagement from the public.

The best way to stem public criticism of whatever course they choose is for city officials to have a full set of numbers to help justify their decision.

‘Third Reich’ was cultural landmark It sat there on your parents’ shelf, or maybe your grandparents’, alongside the six volumes of Winston Churchill’s chronicle of World War II and the 11 volumes of Will and Ariel Durant’s “The Story of Civilization.” It had two distinctions. One was the menacing swastika on the spine of the book. The other was that it was the only one of those 18 volumes that anyone in your family ever actually opened.

It is William L. Shirer’s “The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich,” and more than a million people did more than buy it or open it.

They read it. It may be, aside from the Bible, the biggest book ever read by a big audience, and that audience devoured it, discussed it and was shaped by it. A generation of Americans formed their view of the horrors of Nazi Germany between 1933 and 1945 from its pages or from elders or teachers who themselves read it and were molded by it.

No other book of history in the last century — not Charles Beard on the Constitution, not C. Vann Woodward on the South, not Doris Kearns Goodwin on Roosevelt and Lincoln, nor David McCullough on Harry Truman and John Adams — remotely approaches its reach, influence and significance.

That is a remarkable achievement, even more so because this work of history was undertaken by a journalist — one whose career flared and flamed out, one whose work was questioned if not pilloried, one who wrote the book because he needed the money, much as U.S. Grant wrote his remarkable personal memoirs to pay for his own funeral and assure the financial security of his wife and children.

The six volumes of Churchill on World War II are a great read, better than you expect — all the better, in fact, because

“

A generation of Americans formed their view of the horrors of Nazi Germany between 1933 and 1945 from its pages or from elders or teachers who themselves read it and were molded by it.”

they are so one-sided and selfserving. I have no idea whether the Durants’ civilization series is any good because I have never opened a single volume, even though it has rested on my shelf for more than three decades.

But Shirer’s volume is one of the great reading experiences, and now it has been reissued in a new edition commemorating the 50th anniversary of its selection for the National Book Award. Nowhere except between the covers of that book have so many read so much about, for example, the three Reichstag elections held within five months in 1932 — and much more.

So important a cultural force was “Rise and Fall” that Time magazine listed it as one of the eight best nonfiction books written since 1923, when the magazine was founded. It was, as Ron Rosenbaum writes in an introduction prepared for the commemorative edition, “a kind of a leap from eyewitness war correspondent to archival historian.”

Shirer was, as Dean Acheson would say in a different context, present at the creation (though not at the destruction), but he sought, as Mr. Rosenbaum put it, to write like “the kind of historian, who, like Thucydides, had firsthand experience of war and then sought to adopt the analytic distance of the historian.”

That almost never works for journalists; piles of campaign books, forgotten weeks after they are published, provide sad testimony to that. In fact, the only exceptions I can think of are Theodore H. White’s “Making of the President” volumes for 1960 and 1964 (but not 1968 or 1972) and maybe “Ten Days that Shook the World,” about the Russian Revolution, by John Reed, or “Scum of the Earth,” about the fall of France, by Arthur Koestler. (Drop me a line if you can think of another one.)

Like no other book of the period, Shirer’s possesses the gravitas of the archives as well as the grit of the streets.

Shirer himself had a rise and fall — a rise from Cedar Rapids, Iowa, to the world stage, where he intersected with Hitler and Gandhi, representatives of the two extremes of 20th century history, and then a fall from grace when, as the original of the fabled “Murrow Boys” at CBS, he fell afoul of Edward R. Murrow and William S. Paley and fell into near penury, in part as a result of his name appearing on a list of media leftists.

“To keep the family afloat, his only option was to dream up another book idea,” Steve Wick wrote in “The Long Night,” published earlier this year, a chronicle of Shirer’s life covering Germany. The plan: Use captured German documents as the basis for an authoritative account of Hitler’s ascent and decline. It won him a $10,000 advance from

Simon and Schuster. No one thought Shirer would ever earn back that advance.

Including Shirer: “I began to see that soon I would be back to where I had been for the last dozen years: struggling to make ends meet and not quite making it,” he wrote in “A Native’s Return.”

I met Shirer on a morning 17 years after the publication of “Rise and Fall,” in a second-floor study of his New England farmhouse, where he wrote on a battered Royal typewriter. He was wearing a blue denim outfit with droopy back pockets and rolledup cuffs, and had been reading Balzac and Stendhal, Pushkin and Chekhov, in front of a brick fireplace. He was bald on the front of his skull but two huge white earmuffs of hair rested on either side of his head. He had no patience for the book’s academic critics, who dismissed it as mere journalism. “I had more time to write than history teachers,” he said. “I had no classes to teach.”

Yet Shirer’s book still has lessons. Jonathan Steinberg, who teaches modern European history at the University of Pennsylvania, considers “Rise and Fall” a vital primary source. “He was there,” Mr. Steinberg says. “It has a direct vividness of the eyewitness that other books lack.”

The book was the first serious swipe at digesting 485 tons of confidential documents in the archives of the German government, and it shaped like no other force the way Nazism was remembered in the 1960s and the way it is interpreted in 2011. But that may not be its ultimate significance. William Shirer died 18 years ago. But his book — indeed, the book as an art form, even if it isn’t always in book form — is far from dead.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Oct. 24, 1911: “Tomorrow afternoon in Fraternal Aid Hall a meeting will be held for YEARS those interested in the play ground AGO movement. Dr. James Naismith will IN 1911 tell about play grounds and what they do for other children. Plans are now being made whereby Lawrence will have a play ground and it is supposed that some interesting announcements will be made very soon.”

“By a sweeping ruling made by the State Board of Health all towns of Kansas having a ground water supply must submit samples of their water to the University for tests. This is a ruling that will undoubtedly have a visible influence on the health of the state, for many diseases are known to start from water.”

Lesson repeated?

Jobs, spending

To the editor: I have just sat down at my computer after watching “60 Minutes” on Oct. 16 about the war in Afghanistan and its longterm probabilities. A top U.S. ambassador and a four-star general were discussing the American electorate’s dissatisfaction with the continuation of this war into possibly ten more years of our troops on the ground.

They were explaining how the future may become much brighter for the citizens of Afghanistan after we finish building their roads, schools and infrastructure. It seems to me that we need to do those same jobs here at home. I think that the Afghans are used to living as they have; we are not.

I know for a fact that the generals of the army want to complete and win their war and the ambassador was assigned by our president to help the generals.

But as I continued to watch and hear their strategy, I became enraged and began screaming at my television, “Get the hell out of there and bring our troops home NOW.” I can recall my war in Korea in 1953, when after more than 50,000 American soldiers killed and 200,000 wounded, we watched as the Korean citizens decided that enough was enough and called a truce with North Korea. How could we explain to the families of our boys killed for obviously no reason that their country fought an unnecessary war? We did the same thing in Vietnam in the late 1960s and, after even more mortalities, we called that one off and came home again.

Have we learned our lesson?

Richard M. Hassur, Lawrence

To the editor: According to CNN Money, economists estimate that the country needs to create at least 125,000 jobs per month just to keep up with the nation’s expanding job force. That translates into 11 million jobs just to get back to the 5 percent unemployment rate from before the recession, which began in 2007.

According to what I read, those 11 million jobs are lost and will likely not return — for they went abroad. Are Americans generally lazy and unwilling to work? I say no. Approximately 11 million Americans are looking for full-time employment.

Where are 11 million new jobs? Home loan scams and free trade agreements put Americans out of work. Outsourcing U.S. jobs provides cheaper goods for Americans to buy. Is that so? Where is the hard evidence? I say putting Americans out of work adds a great deal to the cost of U.S. goods produced outside the U.S. Putting Americans out of work by the millions prevents economic growth, which in turn prevents new employment opportunities, which in turn prevents creating new wealth for the nation as a whole. This longterm expense to the nation is unacceptable.

When Americans suddenly become unemployed they require unemployment assistance.

When Americans suddenly become unemployed they lose medical insurance.

When Americans suddenly become unemployed retirement plans often times go up in smoke.

How in the world is the USA saving money considering all of the above?

Americans need to be employed to buy these cheaper goods.

unit under Morrison, alleges she was fired in retaliation for her complaints of sex discrimination.

Her lawsuit alleges in part that Kline and his senior deputy district attorney tolerated incompetence by male attorneys and gave female attorneys “unwarranted criticism.”

Kline, however, contends Spradling was fired for such things as insubordination, failure to follow office policy and a negative attitude.

Spradling’s attorney, Joseph Colantuono, said the county agreed to the settlement and to his client’s request that the money go to Safehome, a domestic violence shelter. County officials wouldn’t comment other than to emphasize that the settlement money was going to the shelter.

Kline lost a Republican primary in his bid for a full term as district attorney in August 2008. He is now an assistant visiting professor of law at Liberty University in Lynchburg, Va., which was founded by late evangelist the Rev. Jerry Falwell.

the past four decades, what been the most deadly natural Q: Inhas disaster?

Johnson County settles in sex discrimination suit TOPEKA (AP) — Johnson County has been dropped from a lawsuit that claims Phill Kline sexually discriminated against a senior prosecutor while he was the county’s district attorney.

Johnson County Judge Gerald T. Elliott agreed to dismiss the county from the lawsuit this past week after county officials agreed to a $7,500 settlement.

The Kansas City Star reported that the trial had been scheduled for this week but has been postponed. Kline and the state of Kansas are among the remaining defendants.

The suit was filed by Jacqie Spradling, who was a senior Johnson County prosecutor when Kline was appointed district attorney in January 2007, two months after he lost a re-election bid as Kansas attorney general to former Johnson County DA Paul Morrison. Kline fired several prosecutors the day he took office and dismissed Spradling three months later, in April 2007.

KANSAS CITY 28, OAKLAND 0

Chiefs pick six

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Futility records in reach The Kansas University football team’s defense, on the wrong end of domination weekly, is on pace to break every Football Bowl Subdivision scoring record for futility.

The Jayhawks have allowed an average of 50.4 points per game and are on pace to surrender 605 points. The 2010 East Carolina Pirates hold the mark for most points allowed (572), and it took them 13 games. The 2002 Eastern Michigan Eagles hold the record (566 points) for 12 games.

How did East Carolina play 13 games when it had such a horrible defense? It qualified for a bowl game with a 6-6 record. It doesn’t take much anymore.

Kansas also is on pace to break Louisiana-Lafayette’s 1997 record for most points averaged by an opponent, 50.3 in 11 games. KU has allowed 50.4 points.

Even though Kansas opponents have scored 24 more points through seven games than Eastern Michigan had allowed at that point, the smart money says KU won’t break the records.

Kansas already has put the toughest portion of its Big 12 schedule behind it. Games against Texas and Iowa State, the two least productive offenses in the conference, remain.

Three of the top four offenses (1. Oklahoma State, 3. Oklahoma, 4. Texas Tech) already played Kansas.

Texas, Saturday’s opponent, is coming off a bye week and will have the home-field advantage, but the Longhorns average a mere 30 points a game.

Then again, UT hasn’t yet played a team on pace to shatter futility records, a team that in the past five games has allowed an average of 57.4 points.

Freshman David Ash and sophomore Case McCoy, Colt’s brother, had been sharing the quarterback job until Ash was given it outright against Oklahoma State. Ash responded with a lousy game, completing 22 of 40 passes for just 139 yards. He didn’t throw a touchdown pass and was picked off twice in a 38-26 loss to the Cowboys.

True freshman running back Malcolm Brown hasn’t met superstar expectations, but he did rush for 135 yards and two touchdowns against OSU, both career highs.

Kansas supplies Ash and Brown with an opportunity to build confidence with big games, but it doesn’t feel as if the Longhorns will become the sixth team in two seasons to score 55 points or more against the Jayhawks.

But nothing’s impossible with a football team packed with so many men who think the team’s improving when game-day data suggests otherwise. Also, the athletes are in the uncomfortable position of playing for a coach whose job security has become a topic of daily discussion.

“Sometimes, I think it’s ridiculous what people say about him,” senior linebacker Steven Johnson said of coach Turner Gill. “It really hurts. ... I look up to him because he takes in so much heat every day and does his job and doesn’t let it faze him.”

Words won’t help if the weekly blastings persist.

“I’m pretty sure you guys and other people talk bad about him and try to get him out of here, but I feel as though that would be a big mistake,” Johnson said. “It would be a huge mistake because this program is on the rise.”

Expectations have plummeted, but surely not enough to consider this bunch closing in on historic facility to be “on the rise.”

KANSAS CITY CORNERBACK BRANDON FLOWERS AND FREE SAFETY KENDRICK LEWIS (23) break up a pass intended for Oakland wide receiver Denarius Moore (17) in the third quarter, one of the few passes thrown toward Flowers and Lewis they didn’t intercept. K.C. had six interceptions in a a 28-0 rout of the Raiders on Sunday in Oakland, Calif.

Half-dozen INTs help K.C. win third straight OAKLAND, CALIF. (AP) — Brandon Flowers heard the boos at the Black Hole grow louder with every pass the Kansas City Chiefs intercepted and could only chuckle.

Just three weeks ago, that’s all the Chiefs heard too.

In a surprising turnaround from the NFL’s basement, Flowers and Kendrick Lewis returned interceptions for touchdowns, and Kansas City piled up six interceptions to shut out the Oakland Raiders, 280, Sunday for its third straight victory.

“We love it. Any defense loves to play away and hear boos,” said Flowers, who had two interceptions. “Every defense loves that.

For us to come out here and get the Oakland Raiders crowd to do that, the Black Hole, that was big for us.”

The Chiefs didn’t care who played quarterback for Oakland.

Starter Kyle Boller became the first Raiders quarterback in 13 years to throw three interceptions in the first half, including Lewis’ 59-yard score on the first drive of the game for Oakland (4-3).

OAKLAND QUARTERBACK KYLE BOLLER (7) sits on the bench next to quarterback Carson Palmer in the second quarter. trade Tuesday, relieved him in the second half and threw three more interceptions — including one that Flowers returned 58 yards to give the Chiefs a 28-0 lead early in the fourth quarter.

The Chiefs (3-3) have rebounded from an 0-3 start and will play for a share of the AFC West lead on Monday night against San Diego.

“We just have to keep believing,” Flowers said. “We never bowed our head and thought the season was done like some people did. We just knew if we kept pushing, things would turn around for us. It’s going to be a great showdown Monday night.”

Javier Arenas and Le’Ron McClain each added touchdown runs for the Chiefs on a day the Kansas City offense didn’t have to do much at all.

After being outscored 89-10 in losses to Buffalo and Detroit to open the season, the defending AFC West champion Chiefs are back in contention in the division.

While the wins came against cellar dwellers Minnesota and Indianapolis and a banged-up Raiders team missing its leading passer, scorer and rusher for most of the game, the Chiefs aren’t apologizing.

ARLINGTON, TEXAS (AP) — Derek Holland kept Albert Pujols in the ballpark and the Texas Rangers in this World Series.

In a title matchup that’s getting more interesting with every game, Holland put the emphasis back on pitching. Given a pep talk by manager Ron Washington minutes before the game, Holland threw two-hit ball for 81⁄3 innings to beat the St. Louis Cardinals, 4-0, on Sunday night and even things at 2-all.

Holland struck out seven, walked two and never was in trouble against a team that erupted for 16 runs the previous night. He came within two outs of pitching the first completegame shutout in the World Series since Josh Beckett’s gem for Florida to clinch the 2003 title at Yankee Stadium.

“I was very focused. I knew this was a big game for us,” Holland said. “I had to step up and make sure I was prepared.”

Hobbled Josh Hamilton put Texas ahead with an RBI double in the first inning. Then Mike Napoli broke it open with a three-run homer in the sixth that set off a hearty high-five in the front row between team president Nolan Ryan and former President George W. Bush.

And just like that, for the first time since 2003, the World Series stood at two games apiece.

Loss to KSU ‘step back’ for KU

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Despite dropping five straight games after starting the season 2-0, Kansas University football coach Turner Gill has continued to talk about improvement and progress.

Sunday, one day after suffering an embarrassing loss to in-state rival Kansas State for the second year in a row, Gill

shed some light on how he and his coaching staff measure improvement.

“Week to week, and from the beginning of the year to where we’re at today are kind of the two ways we look at it,” Gill said. “Week to week, from Oklahoma to the Kansas State game, I think we took a step back as far as the overall team continuing to improve. Overall season, I know we are better than we

were last year on offense and special teams. Defense … it’s kind of hard to say whether we are totally improved in that area.”

The numbers seem to say no.

During its current five-game losing streak, the KU defense has Nick Krug/Journal-World Photo given up an average of 57 points and 595 yards of offense per KANSAS COACH TURNER GILL watches the disgame. Rather than dwell on that, mantling of his team during the third quarter of a 59-21 loss to Kansas State on Saturday at Please see FOOTBALL, page 3B Memorial Stadium.

World Series Now the whole season is down to a best of three, with the outcome to be decided back at Busch Stadium.

Game 5 is tonight at Rangers Ballpark.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a rematch of the opener, when Cardinals ace Chris Carpenter topped C.J. Wilson.

A day after Pujols produced arguably the greatest hitting show in postseason history, tying Series records with three home runs, six RBIs and five hits during the Cardinalsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; romp, Holland emerged as the unlikely star.

Holland got a big cheer when he took the mound in the ninth and was still throwing 96 mph. With the crowd chanting his name, he walked Rafael Furcal and was pulled by Washington after a long talk on the mound. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was begging to stay out there,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I said, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll give it evBOX SCORE erything Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got.

His outing was the longest scoreless appearance by an AL starter in the Series since Andy Pettitte also went 81â &#x201E;3 at Atlanta in 1996.

Neftali Feliz took over and closed. He walked Allen Craig, then retired Pujols on a fly ball and struck out Matt Holliday to end it.

Pujols finished 0 for 4 and hit the ball out of the infield only once. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I wanted him to see my â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Aâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; game,â&#x20AC;? Holland said.

The bounce-back Rangers managed to avoid consecutive losses for the first time since Aug. 23-25, a streak thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kept them out of trouble in the postseason.

The Rangers also completed a Sunday sweep in the matchup of teams from St. Louis and the Dallas area. Earlier in the afternoon, the Cowboys beat the Rams 34-7 right across the parking lots. Hamilton and Lance Berkman served as honorary captains for the pregame coin toss, wearing their baseball uniforms.

Many fans might remember Holland from last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s World Series. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the reliever who came in against San Francisco, walked his first three batters and promptly got pulled.

Maybe that guy was an impostor. Because this 25-year-old lefty with the sorry little mustache was completely poised, with pinpoint control. Perhaps it was the talk he got from Washington near the dugout shortly before taking the mound. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He shows that he cares about all his players, and he definitely showed that when he talked to me,â&#x20AC;? Holland said.

After that, Holland was in total command in his first Series start, and improved to 3-0 lifetime in the postseason.

LUKE DONALD, CENTER, IS FLANKED by a couple of unidentified Disney employees after Donald â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the golfer, not the duck â&#x20AC;&#x201D; won the Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Miracle Network Classic on Sunday in Lake Buena Vista, Fla.

Donald roars to Disney win; Woodland 12th LAKE BUENA VISTA, FLA. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Already No. 1 in the world, Luke Donald left little doubt who was No. 1 on the PGA Tour.

Believing his only chance to capture the PGA Tour money title was to win at Disney, Donald ran off six straight birdies on the back nine Sunday and closed with an 8-under 64 to come from five shots off the lead and win the Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Miracle Network Classic.

Donald, who trailed Webb Simpson by $363,029 coming into the finale, was two behind Simpson at the turn. Then came a performance that ranks among Donaldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best, even in his greatest season of golf.

He holed four straight birdie putts inside 8 feet, took the lead with an 18-foot birdie on the par-5 14th hole, then sealed his stunning rally with a 45-foot birdie on the 15th hole.

It was his second PGA Tour win of the year.

Donald also won the Vardon Trophy for the lowest adjusted scoring average. With no one else winning more than twice this year, the Englishman established himself as a heavy favorite to be PGA Tour player of the year.

Equally important, he kept alive his bid to become the first player to win the money title on the PGA Tour and European Tour in the same season. His lead in Europe is just over $1.8 million over Rory McIlroy with five tournaments remaining.

Former Kansas University golfer Gary Woodland shot a final-round 69 and finished tied for 12th. He was six back of Donald at 277 and won $95,175.

Tseng finished at 16 under and earned $300,000 for her seventh LPGA Tour victory of the season to push her tour-leading total to $2,873,629.

OU falls to No. 11 No. 1 LSU and No. 2 Alabama have locked in their spots for the biggest regular-season game in Southeastern Conference history.

The Tigers and Crimson Tide held the first two spots in the Associated Press Top 25 released Sunday after huge victories a day earlier. With both heading into an off week, LSU and Alabama are virtually assured of meeting on Nov. 5 in Tuscaloosa as the top two teams in the country.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be the second 1 vs. 2 matchup involving SEC teams, but the first time came in the conference championship game.

Oklahoma, the preseason No. 1, dropped eight spots to No. 11 after its first loss of the season.

Oklahoma State is No. 3, followed by fellow unbeatens Stanford, Boise State and Clemson.

The Cowboys have their best ranking since Nov. 19, 1984, when they were also No. 3.

OSU up to No. 3 in BCS

MISSOULA, MONT. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Police say officers used stun guns to subdue two University of Montana football players Sunday morning after the team returned to Missoula following a game Saturday at Northern Arizona.

Sgt. Collin Rose says quarterback Gerald Kemp and cornerback Trumaine Johnson scuffled with police officers who responded to a noise complaint at about 2:40 a.m.

Rose says one player struck an officer in the chest with an open hand and the second player grabbed the officer to prevent the arrest of his teammate.

Gill and company seem content to promote the positive, with the overall state of the offense and special teams outweighing the disappointing defense.

“We look at numbers, and we also look at assignments and what they’re doing with their techniques and how that compares to last year,” said Gill, continuing to talk about how improvement is measured. “That’s how I can make that statement that we have improved, overall, as a football team compared to last year.”

Regardless of what the numbers say or how maddening the past five weeks have been, most of KU’s players have remained upbeat and continued to tell tales of progress.

“We are improving,” sophomore running back James Sims said. “It’s just little by little. People may not see it, but we see it as a team. We

just need to take bigger steps instead of smaller steps.”

A quick check of how improvement was gauged after Saturday’s 59-21 loss revealed that the KU players may not be looking at it the same way the coaches do. Instead of focusing on the big picture — year to year, game to game, first half of the season to second half — the players look a little closer to home.

“I think it’s an every-day deal,” junior wide receiver Kale Pick said. “Just come in every day and pick out a few things you can improve on and try to improve on those and get your game better overall. I think a lot of our players do that. They come in and study the film and what they need to work on, whether it’s technique or fundamentals, making plays.”

Added sophomore quarterback Jordan Webb: “We really do take it day by day. Last year was a totally different team from this year. We have different guys out there, a lot of new faces. And we feel like we’re right on the brink of breaking through and being

“This is a tough group of guys we’ve got,” Chiefs coach Todd Haley said.

The Raiders’ promising season was jolted last week when Jason Campbell was knocked out with a broken collarbone. Coach Hue Jackson moved quickly to get a replacement by trading for Palmer on Tuesday.

Palmer had been available because he refused to play with Cincinnati and had been working out on his own in Southern California.

Because of his rust and unfamiliarity with his teammates and the playbook, Palmer did not start in his debut.

It didn’t end up mattering because neither quarterback was able to do much.

Boller was 7 for 14 for 61 yards and became the first Raiders quarterback to throw three interceptions in the first half since Donald Hollas in 1998 against Miami. Palmer went 8 for 21 for 116 yards with the three interceptions.

This marked the first time the Raiders had thrown six interceptions in a game since that 1998 game against the Dolphins and the Chiefs had their first six-interception game since 1984 against Seattle.

“We knew that they had a quarterback controversy,” Lewis said. “We studied film and studied their routes and that they were going to give him a limited playbook.

When we had the opportunity to make big plays and capitalize, that’s what we did.

And we did a good job with it.”

shut out at home, with five coming since the start of the 2006 season.

Jackson was coy all week about whether Boller or Palmer would start at quarterback in Oakland’s first game since Campbell broke his collarbone.

Oakland moved into Kansas City territory on its first drive and tried to run a trick play on third-and-1 that backfired.

No. 3 quarterback Terrelle Pryor lined up at receiver and went in motion to behind the center and took a quick snap for a keeper. The Raiders were called for a false start because Pryor was not set for a second.

On the next play, Boller threw a pass to Jacoby Ford that Lewis stepped in front of and returned 59 yards for the touchdown to give the Chiefs a 7-0 lead.

“Travis (Releford) is probably going to be as good a ‘steal-you-an-extra possession-guy’ as we have in our league, which every team has to have one of those.

His stroke has improved so much.

“And Jeff (Withey) is talented. I just don’t think Jeff always plays as tough. He’s talented. It’s easy to be talented when you are playing 15 minutes, playing in short spurts, and you know you are coming out and let it go, than if you are playing 30 minutes a game. Can you extend those short spurts into long spurts?

That’s what we’re struggling with a little right now with Jeff. I really like those guys, our first five. I don’t want to lock them into being the first five because things can change. they have separated themselves with (Conner) Teahan being right there.”

KU will continue practicing all week with the first exhibition game set for Nov. 1. The Jayhawks will meet Pittsburg State in a 7 p.m. tipoff in Allen Fieldhouse.

‘In-Laws’ has all the appeal of a car wreck What would it be like if Dr. Phil counseled the knuckleheads on “Jersey Shore” and mediated their every argument with New Age blather? The answer arrives on “Monster In-Laws” (9 p.m., A&E), a sickeningly compelling new reality series about feuding family members with absolutely no sense of boundaries.

The show kicks off with the Ciccones, a stereotypically hot-tempered ItalianAmerican New York family continually on the verge of emotional Armageddon and bouts of physical violence. The problems stem from Richie, a proud grandfather who thinks nothing of monopolizing his granddaughter and all but banishing his son-in-law Anthony from her life.

Richie’s disrespect for his daughter and her husband is apparent to everyone but Grandpa. Problems are compounded by the fact that he and the young couple own and run a restaurant together — a restaurant named after the granddaughter.

One half expects “Kitchen Nightmares” host Gordon Ramsay to show up and knock some sense into Richie or to browbeat Anthony into growing a backbone. Instead, we get relationship expert Mel Robbins, who spouts platitudes about the obvious and puts the feuding family through workshops and exercises for our entertainment. In less than a half hour, Robbins “solves” everyone’s problems and banishes festering resentments decades in the making.

Not believable for a second, “Monster” has an addictive, guilty-pleasure component that some will find difficult to resist.

A seemingly content mother of four vanishes the day before Valentine’s Day 2001, on the fourth-season premiere of “Disappeared” (9 p.m., ID). Family members spend years searching for her and wondering if she was a victim of violence or simply left on her own. A decade later, an investigation into a seemingly unrelated triple-homicide unearths unsettling information about the case.

Every week, “Disappeared” follows families as they try to solve the most emotionally wrenching puzzle of their lives. Some segments end well, others in tragedy. Almost all hold surprises few viewers will see coming.

Tonight’s other highlights

The Cardinals and Texas Rangers meet in Game Five of the World Series (6:30 p.m., Fox).

The top eight compete on “The SingOff” (7 p.m., NBC).

Jonathan appears on a revival of “The Dick Cavett Show” on “Bored to Death” (8 p.m., HBO).

Murder and charity don’t mix on “Hawaii Five-O” (9 p.m., CBS).

The child of a murdered mother goes missing on “Prime Suspect” (9 p.m., NBC).

A professional ghost hunter joins his spectral prey on “Castle” (9 p.m., ABC).

Cult choice The sole survivor of an auto wreck (Candace Hilligoss) takes a job as a church organist and finds herself pursued by ghouls in the 1962 shocker “Carnival of Souls” (7 p.m., TCM). Directed by industrial filmmaker Herk Harvey for an estimated $33,000, this odd little movie remains one of the creepiest films you’ll ever see.

HOT AT THE BOX OFFICE By Jill Pepper

10/24

Dear Mother: You are reading too much into this.

Your ex-husband is a single guy and, like all others in attendance, is entitled to fight for the bride’s garter. We agree that it doesn’t show much decorum on his part, nor is it what a good host would do (if he is paying for the wedding), but his boorish behavior is outside your control.

Dear Annie: I am 29 years old, have been married for eight years and have two toddlers. I have decided to leave my husband.

When we met, I was in college and my husband had just graduated. I quit school with the assumption that he would pass his licensure exam. He has since failed it three times.

He has trouble retaining information and will likely never pass.

Four years ago, I had the opportunity to return to school, all expenses paid. I started classes six weeks after our first child was born.

My husband was initially supportive, but over time, he has become jealous. I have passed all of my exams with flying colors. While I am careful not to make disparaging remarks about his licensure exam, I believe he is threatened by my success.

The closer I get to finishing the uglier it gets. Twice he said, “I hope you fail.” He has told me to quit school, knowing we would have to pay back every cent of the tuition.

He said he doesn’t believe it is God’s will for me to attend school. (He’s also said that if I don’t have sex with him, it will be my fault if he fails his exam again.) The biggest problem is what he says in front of the kids. He told our oldest that Mommy was going to lose the

ROUNDUP

Tebow rallies Broncos past Miami STANDINGS

The Associated Press

Broncos 18, Dolphins 15, OT MIAMI — Tim Tebow rallied the Broncos for two touchdowns in the final 2:44 of the fourth quarter to force overtime, and Matt Prater’s 52-yard field goal gave Denver an improbable victory Sunday over the stunned Dolphins.

The Broncos appeared beaten when they trailed 15-0 with 5:23 left and took over at their 20. At that point Tebow was 4-for-14 for 40 yards.

But he threw two TD passes sandwiched around a successful onside kick, and scored a two-point conversion standing up with 17 seconds left to tie the game.

In overtime, Denver’s D.J. Williams sacked Matt Moore to force a fumble and recovered it at the Miami 36. Three plays later Prater hit the game-winner.
