Input on school tax rates welcome ■ Hearings set as most districts

poised to increase mill levies.

BY MARY CLARKIN The Hutchinson News mclarkin@hutchnews.com

People in Reno County will be able to speak out on school tax rates during public hearings on proposed 2013-14 budgets.

Most school districts in the

county are eyeing mill levy increases, but Fairfield USD 310 plans to lower its tax rate.

Oil drilling in the Langdon, Sylvia and Turon areas – all within USD 310’s boundaries – helped increase the district’s estimated assessed valuation.

One oil lease for a horizontal well carries an assessed valuation of over $1 million, noted Jan Hull, the Appraiser Department employee who will become Reno County

treasurer in a couple of months.

That’s a “pretty good-size” economic boost, Hull said.

Pretty Prairie USD 311 Superintendent Brad Wade said the district had hoped to hold the mill levy steady, but the July hailstorm damaged district property and forced a re-evaluation.

School roofs, windows, signs and even the tower used by the Pretty Prairie district for Internet purposes took a hit.

A 2012 bond issue for the Buhler school district and technology infrastructure upgrades for Hutchinson schools are pushing the mill levies up in those respective districts.

“We aren’t making any major purchases,” said Nickerson-South Hutchinson USD 309 Superintendent Bill Hagerman, but the mill levy is increasing.

Reduced federal aid and underfunding of the state’s equalization

formula for poor school districts amount to a revenue cut for USD 309, Hagerman said.

Haven USD 312’s proposed mill levy of 53.346 mills is a jump from the current 50.681 levy, but the proposed figure really is not much higher than what the tax rate was supposed to be for the district’s 2012-13 budget, district staff noted.

Man missing from prison ■ ‘Serial shoplifter’ banned from Topeka

Wal-Mart not eligible for release until 2023.

BY THE NEWS STAFF

Mable walks along one of the trails at the Sandy Lane nudist club. Mable describes herself as a “naturalist” more than a traditional nudist and finds peace being nude as a way to connect with nature rather than it being a mainly social activity like her husband, Adam.

The resort sits on 39 acres of protected land with several trails for its patrons to walk along and has been a bastion for bare-loving folks since its inception in 1955.

Hutchinson authorities are looking for a man who allegedly escaped from the Hutchinson Correctional Facility on Saturday afternoon.

Mark Lucas, 44, was found missing about 1:30 p.m. during an informal count that was being conducted at the south unit, which houses minimum custody inmates, according to Dirk Moss, public information officer.

Lucas is 6 foot, about 180 pounds with brown hair and hazel eyes. He was last seen LUCAS wearing a blue shirt, blue jeans and brown shoes.

Lucas was sentenced to prison in January for aggravated burglary and theft in Shawnee County. A Shawnee County judge called Lucas a “serial shoplifter” when he was sentenced in October 2012 for stealing a DVD player and wireless router from a Topeka Wal-Mart, where he was permanently banned.

Sandy Lane numbers waning but spirit remains

Editor’s note: The names of the club members that spoke with The News have been altered to protect their identities. ith bratwursts and lemon-peppered lamb chops cooking on the open grill, Adam sips his drink and smiles. A self-described foodie, he is clearly in his element as he turns the sizzling meat over with metal tongs.

Adam apologizes to his wife and a few friends for dinner taking so long; he just got carried away with chatting. No one minds. The weather is a little cloudy, but other than that it’s a mild summer night. There is no rush.

Of course, what’s significant in this scene isn’t the delicious smell coming from the grill, nor is it the lively conversation, the gorgeous green forest surrounding them.

Adam, in his late 50s and standing inches away from an open flame, is nude. And not only is Adam nude, so is his wife and so are his friends.

Everyone is nude. For them, it’s just another summer night at Sandy Lane.

Dinner would be served in a few minutes.

Sandy Lane nudist club, located about 20 miles outside of Hutchinson, has been around since 1956.

The club began as a vibrant group of individuals and families, baring it all in pursuit of mental and physi-

cal fitness. But these days, the crowd has shifted to a few dedicated members working to preserve it.

Even in 1999, Sandy Lane boasted membership in the 90s. Now, numbers have dropped to the 20s, with

Nine Afghans killed in attack on consulate THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BY PAUL WISEMAN AP Economics Writer

WASHINGTON – The 162,000 jobs the economy added in July were a disappointment. The quality of the jobs was even worse.

A disproportionate number of the added jobs were part-time or low-paying – or both.

Part-time work accounted for more than 65 percent of the positions employers added in July. Low-paying retailers, restaurants and bars supplied more than half July’s job gain.

KABUL, Afghanistan – Three suicide bombers tried to attack the Indian consulate in an eastern Afghan city on Saturday, sparking a shootout with guards on a bustling downtown street that left at least nine civilians dead, official said.

The attack, which ended when the militants detonated a car bomb that left charred debris scattered in central Jalalabad near the Pakistan border, did not appear to damage the consulate itself, and Indian officials said all of the facility’s staff escaped unharmed.

The Taliban denied responsibility for the attack, and suspicion instead fell upon Pakistan-based terrorist groups that have been blamed for deadly violence against Indian interests in Afghanistan in the past.

The bombing comes at a time when Afghanistan and India are both trying to patch up relations with Pakistan. Islamabad considers Afghanistan its strategic backyard, and has always viewed India – with which it has fought several wars in the past 65 years – as a rival here.

Afghan President Hamid Karzai, who has blamed Pakistani influence over the Taliban for much of the violence in his country, only last week announced plans to travel to Islamabad.

The two nations have had tense ties for years, and Afghanistan has accused Pakistan in the past of supporting the Taliban in the movement’s fight against the Afghan government.

But the election two months ago of a new prime minister in Pakistan had raised hopes in Kabul that Islamabad will be more open to helping start peace talks

with the Taliban than the previous government – which it perceived to be more hostile to Afghanistan.

Pakistan is seen as a key player in the Afghan peace process, and the U.S. has been trying to enlist its support to help coax the Taliban into talks. Islamabad has ties to the Taliban that date back to the 1990s, and many of the group’s leaders are believed to be detained or living on Pakistani territory.

Saturday’s attack began when two men wearing explosive vests got out of a car as it approached a checkpoint outside the consulate, prompting a police guard to immediately open fire on them, said Masum Khan Hashimi, the deputy police chief for Nangarhar province. As the two sides exchanged fire, a third militant still in the car detonated a large bomb inside the vehicle.

The blast killed nine bystanders and wounded another 24 people, including a policeman. Six of the dead and three of the wounded were children studying the Quran inside a nearby mosque, according to police and Jalalabad hospital director Dr. Humayun Zahir.

All three attackers also died, although it was not clear how many were killed by police fire and how many by the explosion.

Horse dies after running into fence THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Hutchapalooza goes on despite lack of crowds ■ Inaugural event had

frustrations, but organizer is already eyeing next year.

BY KRISTEN RODERICK The Hutchinson News kroderick@hutchnews.com

When Wichita band The Joy Coughs finished playing Saturday afternoon, they made it a point to thank each person in the audience: there was only one.

The person’s dog would make two.

That set the tone for the early afternoon concerts at the inaugural Hutchapalooza. When there was a significant audience, they gathered for the rock bands at DCI Park. Avenue A Park sat nearly empty for a majority of the afternoon.

“I’m very shocked that DCI has the turnout it does,” Organizer James Lowe said.

“People do like their rock

and metal, just not in Avenue A Park.”

Then the sound system blew. Thanks to the Emancipation Day Celebration, the City of Hutchinson’s sound system was already ready to go. Later that evening, Johnson Music offered its system to finish out the night.

By late afternoon, a dozen people sat in the grass and behind the stage at Avenue A Park. Lowe figured more people would come as the evening went on.

“We’ve sort of trained people to show up at night,” he said.

Concerts for the Cause started at 7 p.m. all summer.

But for one day, more than 20 local bands signed up to play in the all day show on two stages for two causes – The Salvation Army and the Hutchinson Zoo. Adding more woes, some of the bands that signed up to play did not show up.

With Lowe’s local music connections, the show went on.

The concert was not completely full of frustrations.

Another local organization stepped in to help the silent auction, when Third Thursday donated art.

The Salvation Army made at least $286 through concession sales. Proceeds for the Hutchinson Zoo were not available by press time.

Despite a poor afternoon crowd, Lowe is already planning ahead for next year’s Hutchapalooza. He will take lessons from this year to make it even better.

“It will probably be during the last Saturday of the summer,” he said.

The next Concerts for the Cause show will feature John Rowdy, Mark Bowling, Lacey Cruse and Julie Sutton at 7 p.m. Saturday at Avenue A Park. The show benefits Third Thursday.

Kansas senators seek to honor Lt. Gen. Seitz

BY JOHN MILBURN Associated Press

TOPEKA – Kansas’ two U.S. senators are seeking to rename a Veterans Affairs clinic in Junction City after a decorated World War II veteran who continued serving the military community around Fort Riley long after he retired.

Sens. Jerry Moran and Pat Roberts filed a measure in the Senate Friday to honor Lt. Gen. Richard Seitz by renam-

ing the health facility after the late general. Seitz died in June at age 95.

Moran and Roberts, both Republicans, said designating the outpatient clinic in Seitz’s honor was a “fitting tribute” to his work around Fort Riley.

“Our country lost a great man, a dedicated soldier, and an American hero when Lt. Gen. Dick Seitz recently passed away,” Moran said.

“Dick was a mentor, a friend, and someone I hold in extremely high regard.”

During the past decade, Seitz was present as soldiers deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan and there to greet them at all hours of the night when they returned.

“His focus was constantly on what was best for soldiers and their families. He always had time to lend his support, and the soldiers and their families admired and loved him,” said John Armbrust, a Manhattan resident and executive director of the Governor’s Military Council.

BRIEFS Preston teen killed after accident involving semi PRATT – A Preston teenager was killed early Saturday morning after his car hit a semi tractor-trailer.

Drake Evert, 16, was driving a 2000 Pontiac Grand Am northbound on K-61 shortly after 6:30 a.m. when his vehicle went left of center and hit a northbound semi, driven by Robert Myerski, 55, of Plains, Penn.

Evert’s vehicle ended up facing southeast in the northbound ditch, while the semi ended up in the southbound

ditch, according to the Kansas Highway Patrol.

Evert and Myerski both were taken to Pratt Regional Medical Center where Evert died. Both were wearing seat belts. Evert played several sports for Pratt High School, and he was set to play a key role on the football team.

Two injured in wreck after driver distracted by bug RUSSELL – Two people were injured Saturday afternoon when the teenage driver was distracted by a bug, causing the vehicle to crash

on I-70 Interstate.

Jeremy Baggs, 16, of Dacula, Ga., was eastbound on I70 near Russell shortly after 1:30 p.m. when he got distracted by the bug. The 2011 Ford Fiesta he was driving veered off the roadway into the south ditch and hit the 196 mile marker sign. The vehicle ended up facing northeast, according to the Kansas Highway Patrol.

Baggs and passenger Chelsea Bell, 21, of Kelso, Wash., were taken to Russell Regional Hospital. Both were wearing seat belts.

– From staff reports

down while bucking at the Phillipsburg Rodeo on Friday and went straight into a fence.

A veterinarian at the arena says the horse died instantly and did not suffer.

Veterinarian John Boyington says he has worked at the rodeo for 23 years and

it was the first time he had seen a horse die in that manner.

An owner of the Elk City, Okla., company that owned the horse says Jitterbug was a valuable asset, and her loss was like losing a star freshman player.

The horse is being buried in Kansas.

WORLD

US envoy in Egypt holds talks with opposing sides

BY AYA BATRAWY AND TONY G. GABRIEL Associated Press

CAIRO – Egypt’s Interior Ministry warned supporters of ousted President Mohammed Morsi on Saturday for a second time to abandon their protest camps as a senior U.S. diplomat met with officials on both sides of the country’s political divide.

U.S. Deputy Secretary of State William Burns extended his visit to Cairo by one day so he could meet military leader Gen. Abdel-Fatah el-Sissi and the country’s prime minister on Sunday, an Egyptian Foreign Ministry official said. A member of the pro-Morsi delegation that met Saturday with Burns said the four delegates also would meet again with the U.S. diplomat on Sunday for more talks.

At the core of talks is the political future of the Muslim Brotherhood and its Islamist allies following the July 3 coup that ousted Morsi, the country’s first freely elected president. The military coup, which followed several days of mass protests by millions of Egyptians demanding his ouster, also led to the dissolution of the Islamist-dominated parliament and the suspension of an Islamist-drafted constitution.

The Brotherhood says it is looking for concessions before beginning talks with their rivals. Such measures could include releasing detained Brotherhood leaders, unfreezing the group’s assets, lifting a ban on its television stations and reining in the use of force against its protesters.

Tarek el-Malt, who met with Burns and is a member of the Brotherhood-allied Wasat Party, said the delegation insisted that any initiatives for a way out of the crisis must center on the 2012 constitution being restored.

Manu Brabo/Associated Press

Supporters of ousted Egypt’s President Mohammed Morsi, pray after breaking their fast during the Islamic month of Ramadan, in Nasr City, Cairo, Egypt.

“Morsi would return to power in all cases,” he told The Associated Press.

“Whether he spends his full term in office or delegates his power to a national Cabinet is up for discussion.”

However, Burns and others have signaled that the West has moved on from Morsi’s presidency. Washington and others are foremost seeking stability in the Arab world’s most populous nation, and have called for the Brotherhood’s participation in the transition as a way to achieve national reconciliation.

The trip by Burns, his second to Cairo since the coup, comes amid heighted fears of more bloodshed after more than 80 Morsi supporters were killed in clashes with police a week ago. More than 280 people have been killed nationwide in political violence since Morsi’s removal.

America’s No. 2 diplomat also held talks Saturday with interim Egyptian President Adly Mansour and Vice President Mohamed ElBaradei, as did the European Union’s special envoy, Bernardino Leon.

Nevine Malak, who attended the same meeting

with Burns as el-Malt as part of a delegation representing those against the coup, said the session was mainly for “listening.” She said the group, which includes two members of the Brotherhood’s political wing, would meet Burns again on Sunday.

“Any solution or any initiative must include the return of the (suspended) constitution,” she told the AP. “We don’t ignore the fact that there were masses that took to the streets, but we don’t ignore either that what happened was a coup against legitimacy.”

Egyptian Foreign Minister Nabil Fahmy also met Burns and said Egyptian officials have made clear to their Western counterparts “there is no moving back.”

Fahmy also said the transitional roadmap adopted by the country’s militarybacked interim leaders is open to the Brotherhood for participation.

“There have been contacts between different figures, be they in government directly or indirectly, and those among the Brotherhood’s leaders,” Fahmy told journalists. He declined to describe those discussions as “negotiations.”

“The essence of a healthy relationship is not about sex or romance. It’s about feeling free.”

‘Adam,’ a member of the Sandy Lane nudist camp

Aaron Marineau/The Hutchinson News

Above: Dan showers after spending some time in the pool.

Left: A sign near the entrance of the Sandy Lane Club foreshadows the camp’s contents ahead.

Nudists ● From Page A1 the youngest members being in their mid-30s.

Now, as Sandy Lane continues to dwindle in membership, club-goers are asking themselves who is going to maintain it – both the grounds and the spirit – when they’re no longer able. *** Mable’s skin is flawless in a way that 50-plus years of aging shouldn’t allow. It’s not an absence of stretch marks or sunspots. It’s the way she wears her own body, a confident poise women across the globe spend thousands of dollars trying to attain. As Mable speaks of Italy, food, and fashion, her warm smile infects the gazebo. She shivers in an evening breeze and excuses herself, returning wrapped in a brightly colored sarong and the same easy grace she wore when nude.

For Mable, Adam’s wife, bodies are neither worshipped nor are they ignored.

They simply house the unique spirit, personality and life that truly make up a person.

But when Adam first expressed interest in nudist resorts six years ago, Mable hesitated for the same reasons anyone cringes at the idea of nudism. She agreed to try it out, but each resort they visited was wrong: the mood was strange, it was too busy, not busy enough, too close to home, too far. Adam saw Mable wasn’t comfortable and backed off. His marriage, he said, was his first priority.

Then the couple stumbled on Sandy Lane’s flowering canopy of catalpa trees, closer to home than the other resorts, but lush, green and secluded enough to forget the Kansas plains just outside the gates. Mable fell in love with its retro summer-camp charm and the miles of trails circling the facilities, which converted her to what she describes as naturism and allowed her to embrace Sandy Lane with her husband. For Mable, a self-proclaimed introvert, nudism became a treasured opportunity to get as close to nature as physically possible.

Still, nudism and naturism are drastic U-turns from the mindset of traditional American women, and if the transition happens, it is often slow.

Mable spent years chipping away at society-induced mental blocks before she was able to sit serenely in a lawn chair at Sandy Lane, fully engaged in conversation, breasts, stomach and thighs exposed.

Angela sits at the picnic table to Mable’s left, her body hunched and angled toward her husband, Kevin, as if his jubilance might rub off on her. Like Adam, Kevin has been inclined toward nudism since childhood. Like Mable, Angela couldn’t see the appeal, but agreed to visit. During the couple’s second visit to Sandy Lane, and third to any nudist resort, Angela kept her pink T-shirt on, her towel close and her voice low.

“On the fence” is how Angela describes her status.

Members nod. They’ve all been there. *** Motivations for nudism are complex and varied, making it a difficult task for Adam and other baby boomers who make up the heart of Sandy Lane to recruit new, younger members.

When asking visitors to abandon classic social con-

structs, time and experience are the best teachers, and there is only so much Sandy Lane can do to set them at ease. Clothing isn’t prohibited, though members agree it can create, rather than alleviate, divisions. The people who wear clothes and go nude often align themselves respectively.

Mable organizes womenonly sessions to discuss hesitations from a female perspective. But most importantly, the members don’t take their “nakations” too seriously. Puns abound, and they don’t get old.

“We’re having a BARE-becue!” Adam proclaims, describing Sandy Lane’s annual Independence Day festival, featuring body painters and a nude juggling comedy act.

Nailed to trees and fence posts are parodies of safety hazard signs with slogans like “No Clothing Zone” and “Nudist Crossing.” The painted handprints decorating the concrete walls of the poolhouse accompany several heart-shaped prints of buttocks.

Back in the ’50s, Gene remembers local teenagers coming to vandalize the club at night. He smiles as he talks about it. That doesn’t happen anymore, but he still refuses to tell his children that he and their mother are long-time nudists. They’re very religious, Gene says, and finding out their parents are nudists doesn’t exactly fit the mold of the pious family the children likely imagine.

Being nude has nothing to do with sex, he argues. If members of Sandy Lane were clothed, they would be perhaps the most PG group of adults one could find.

No drugs are allowed on Sandy Lane property and members aren’t allowed to overindulge in alcohol on the grounds. These are fairly typical standards for American Association for Nude Recreation clubs around the country. In direct contrast to the deviant eroticism the public might associate with nudism, Carl, president of the Lake Edun Foundation, a nudist lake on private land outside of Topeka, said members would even ask campers to leave for using foul language.

Less than a quarter mile into the trail circling the Sandy Lane sits a cleared out section of forest. Light leaks between the leaves and it’s common to see deer wander in the background. The quiet sanctuary is where, recently, a local preacher led prayer services.

It takes just a few bad apples to ruin the whole experience, though, and Adam says those apples can usually be determined with a simple Google search of a visitor’s name. The club focuses on creating a comfortable, family-friendly environment for its members.

“The essence of a healthy relationship is not about sex or romance,” Adam said. “It’s

about feeling free.”

Gene, who has visited Sandy Lane with his wife for decades, laughs when asked about sexual implications.

“Oh, you’re still seeing naked people?” he asks. **** “Take me out to the nudist camp Take your clothes off: go bare Meet some Friends and campers there You’ll enjoy it with no underwear For it’s hip-hooray for Sandy Lane You all will want to come back!

To swim and sun—it’s so much fun At our nudist camp” – Sandy Lane camp song While recruiting younger people has been problematic at Sandy Lane, this isn’t the case nationwide, say other nudist camp presidents and directors. AANR executive director Jim Smock said although membership to nudist clubs has declined moderately in the last two decades, younger people are a growing segment of the AANR population.

“What appeals to them is you don’t need any money or special equipment,” Smock said. “If you’re into golf, you need clubs. In tennis, you need rackets. For a nudist club, you just need yourself.”

And this is true at Sandy Lane. The club is run on a volunteer basis, and members donate their time and skills as electricians, welders and mechanics to maintain the buildings and land. Heavy outdoor maintenance risks chafing, burning and sharp objects, so Gene, Sandy Lane’s veteran handyman, slips in and out of a worn pair of overalls throughout the day. The official mantra is “clothing when necessary, nude when possible.” But for Adam, who has been known to shed his shorts as soon as the thermostat surpasses 30 degrees, “necessary” is relative.

Recently, a team combined efforts to build a guest cabin just yards away from the pool, an experience Adam smirks at when remembering.

“It’s always interesting doing construction work...naked,” he said, pointing out that bare skin actually provided more traction on the cabin’s metal roof than any sort of clothing would have.

The cabin, now complete and available to rent, is an effort to ease visitors’ transition to nudism. In what Adam deems “a trick of architecture,” a covered porch allows hesitant visitors to watch picnics, bocce ball and croquet from a comfortable buffer zone, observing the tight-knit community without completely joining in.

Adam says in meetings, members have conversations about how to attract more re-

cruits, but there’s a wide gap between discussion and action. Members worry they’ll get burnt out marketing their “nakation” spot, when Sandy Lane has always been a quiet retreat.

Ask them whether they would sacrifice the intimacy of the Sandy Lane community for a larger, younger membership, and Mable and Adam are unsure. They reflect on the community that more resembles an extended family.

Recently, one member lost his wife to cancer and the club members acted as a support group during her illness, checking in with meals, hospital visits and phone calls.

After she died, her husband found solace in returning to Sandy Lane.

“Just because she agreed to come and she was out there a few times, it opened the door for him to continue to experience the people and the place,” Mable said. “There’s really no regrets about how it all progressed.”

For now, the club will rely on the people who actively seek it out online. The new cabin, at least, has been booked every weekend this summer. *** Back at the camp, an ATV buzzes by. It’s Adam driving, a flesh-colored blur against the green backdrop. He parks in the clearing, dismounts and unloads his cargo – firewood and alcohol – before deftly rearranging his beach towel across the driver’s seat. People are now gathered around the grill, presenting the dishes they prepared for the potluck. Generously, Gene brought a pie.

“Homebaked! I spent all day on it,” he jokes as he removes the plastic store wrapper.

Adam, now wearing an apron screen-printed with Michelangelo’s “David,” uncorks the bottle and gets out the glasses. Everyone is dishing up.

“Who wants wine?”

Steakhouse cited again for violations ■ Airport eatery’s follow-up

still finds errors; three local restaurants lifted from list.

BY KAYLA REGAN The Hutchinson News kregan@hutchnews.com

In the last month, the Kansas Department of Agriculture visited more than 30 food establishments in Hutchinson. The News reviewed the public records of these inspections and found two restaurants that are currently not in compliance with Kansas law and more that have corrected issues that temporarily made them out of compliance. Almost every restaurant inspection had at least one critical violation.

The KDA sends an employee – sometimes local, sometimes not – to inspect every restaurant at least once a year for safety violations. Nicole Hamm, inspection manager, said an inspector lives in Reno County and does local inspections.

The most critical violations are priority violations, which are directly related to hazards associated with food-borne illness. The second-most critical violations are priority foundation violations, which support or one or more priority items.

The KDA, which took control of all food establishment inspections in 2008, considers restaurants out of compliance if they receive three or more priority violations, five or more priority foundation violations, or any combination of the two. Hamm said a restaurant has four follow-up visits to demonstrate it has corrected violations before it would receive a fine. She said most violations are corrected on site or by the second visit.

Inspectors have the same criteria for small and large restaurants and all follow-up actions are the same, Hamm said.

Last month, Oliver’s, Lonestar Cafe and Liberty Lounge were found non-compliant. All of those restaurants are now in compliance.

To see a full list of restau-

rant inspections, visit the KDA website.

Below are summaries of five of the most critical reports published in the last month. Check out this story on hutchnews.com for the full inspection reports.

The Airport Steakhouse, 1100 Airport Road After two inspections, the longstanding restaurant located inside the Hutchinson Airport remains out of compliance with state law.

In the first inspection on July 9, the restaurant received five priority violations and three priority foundation violations. Those violations included a piece of debris floating in a bottle of peppermint schnapps and a fruit fly floating in a bottle of Old Charter Whiskey (both bottles were removed on site); mold build up inside the ice bin; and inconsistent date marking on food, including shrimp being held in the walk-in marked for June 25.

In its second July 19 visit, the inspector cited the restaurant for two priority violations, including honeydew marked for July 12. Consequently, the restaurant remains out of compliance.

Owner Kevin Bowen said none of the violations would have resulted in customers becoming ill or unhappy with the product. He said his staff is fully trained and, while sometimes employees make small mistakes, the restaurant would pass its next follow-up inspection.

Applebee’s, 1609 E. 17th Ave. The hailstorm not only did a number on Lowe’s, Wal-Mart and the mall, it also played a part in the reason Applebee’s is out of compliance. Manager Robert Roehl said the restaurant mainly failed its inspection because hail from the July 23 storm damaged a piece of equipment on the roof that was connected to its walk-in cooler.

The restaurant received two priority violations and three priority foundation violations during the inspector’s July 24 visit. The most serious violations included

Top US officials meet to discuss embassy threat THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON – Top U.S. officials met Saturday to review the threat of a terrorist attack that led to the weekend closure of 21 U.S. embassies and consulates in the Muslim world and a global travel warning to Americans. President Barack Obama was briefed following the session, the White House said.

Obama’s national security adviser, Susan Rice, led the meeting and then joined Lisa Monaco, Obama’s assistant for homeland security and counterterrorism, in briefing the president, the White House said in a statement.

“The president has received frequent briefings over the last week on all aspects of the potential threat and our preparedness measures,” according to the statement.

Among those at the meeting Saturday afternoon were the secretaries of state, defense and homeland security and the directors of the FBI, CIA and the National Security Agency, according to the White House. Also attending was Gen. Martin Dempsey, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

In an interview Friday with ABC News, Dempsey said officials had determined there was “a significant threat stream” and that the threat was more specific than previous ones. The “intent is to attack Western, not just U.S. interests,” he said.

The global travel warning was the first such alert since an announcement before the 10th anniversary of the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.

The warning comes less

than a year since the deadly September attack on a U.S. diplomatic post in Benghazi, Libya, and with the Obama administration and Congress determined to prevent any similar breach of an American embassy or consulate.

The State Department’s warning urged U.S. travelers to take extra precautions overseas. It cited potential dangers involved with public transportation systems and other prime sites for tourists, and noted that previous attacks have centered on subway and rail networks as well as airplanes and boats.

Travelers were advised to sign up for State Department alerts and register with U.S. consulates in the countries they visit.

The statement said that alQaida or its allies might target either U.S. government or private American interests. The alert expires on Aug. 31.

The State Department said the potential for terrorism was particularly acute in the Middle East and North Africa, with a possible attack occurring on or coming from the Arabian Peninsula. The diplomatic facilities affected stretch from Mauritania in northwest Africa to Afghanistan.

U.S. officials pointed specifically to Yemen, the home of al-Qaida’s most dangerous affiliate and the network blamed for several notable plots against the United States, from the foiled Christmas Day 2009 effort to bomb an airliner over Detroit to the explosivesladen parcels intercepted the following year aboard cargo flights.

items like queso filling, raw shrimp and milk held up to 12 degrees higher than Kansas law requires in the walk-in cooler.

Roehl said employees were in the process of fixing the cooler when the inspector showed up and the problem was fixed by the end of the day. The restaurant has not had its follow-up inspection yet.

Gambino’s Pizza, 310 S. Main St., South Hutchinson The South Hutchinson pizza place received one priority violation and three priority foundation violations on the inspector’s July 17 visit. The priority violations included cut lettuce being held 12 degrees above required. The priority foundation violations stated the restaurant’s pizza-make table quit working and that no test strips for testing sanitizer solutions were available.

John Davenport, Gambino’s manager, said the restaurant has a new pizzamake table installed that is working perfectly. Davenport, who has worked in the food industry for 17 years, also said they now have sanitizer strips.

“We’re all fixed up. I’ve been through this every year.”

The Gambino’s follow-up report on July 29 showed zero violations.

Plaza Grill, 1515 S. Main St., South Hutchinson The Plaza Grill received four priority violations and five priority foundation violations on the KDA’s July 15 visit.

The violations include mold build-up in the ice bin and foods like sausage, tomato and bacon being held up to 16 degrees warmer than

appropriate.

Manager Chrystal Stapleton said the violations occurred because the restaurant’s sandwich cooler was broken – something they didn’t realize until the day the inspector arrived.

She said the problem was fixed, and the restaurant had zero violations on a followup visit.

Pretzels & More, 1500 E. 11th Ave. This Hutchinson Mall restaurant received a notice of noncompliance after the KDA’s July 22 visit, when it was cited for two priority violations and three priority foundation violations.

The violations included hot dogs in the hold case being held 30 degrees warmer than required and an open package of hot dogs being held more than 10 degrees warmer than required. The inspector also cited the restaurant for a broken thermometer.

Efforts to reach Pretzels & More management were unsuccessful. The restaurant is back in compliance after a successful follow-up visit Thursday.

Spangles, 120 E. Fourth Ave. The Wichita fast-food chain’s Fourth Avenue Hutchinson location was out of compliance briefly in July.

On the KDA’s July 17 inspection, Spangles No. 16 received two priority violations and two priority foundation violations. The most serious violation involved food items being held about 2 degrees higher than required and the food-make table testing 5 degrees warmer than required.

Corporate spokesman

Craig Steven said the violations stemmed from a gasket on a refrigerator that was worn down and hung loose.

He said the problem was corrected and the restaurant had no violations in the KDA’s July 29 visit.

“We are super, super particular and we handle those matters very swiftly because they are very important,” Steven said.

Dying 2-year-old is Pa. couple’s best man THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

JEANNETTE, Pa. – Looking dapper in a tiny tan pinstripe suit and orange shirt, a 2-year-old boy with only weeks to live served as the best man Saturday afternoon for his parents’ Pennsylvania wedding.

Christine Swidorsky carried Logan Stevenson on her shoulder at the Saturday afternoon wedding in Jeannette, a suburb of Pittsburgh, the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reported.

Logan stood with his grandmother, Debbie Stevenson, during a 12minute ceremony uniting Logan’s mother and his fa-

ther, Sean Stevenson. The boy has leukemia and other complications.

“We’re married,” Swidorsky exclaimed joyously after kissing her groom to applause from family and friends.

After a whirlwind week, the Jeannette couple tied the knot in a hastily arranged backyard ceremony that formalized their union and celebrated Logan’s life, which doctors say will be cut short soon by cancer.

The Stevensons abandoned an original wedding date of July 2014 after learning from doctors late last month that their son had

two to three weeks to live.

The couple wanted Logan to see them marry and to be part of family photos.

Logan, who was born Oct. 22, 2010, was diagnosed shortly after his first birthday with acute myeloid leukemia. He has Fanconi anemia, a rare disease that often leads to cancer. He endured a stem cell transplant in July 2012. Last March, he underwent surgery to remove a kidney.

During a trip to the emergency room last month, a test revealed a mass in his remaining kidney, which led to his terminal prognosis.

Logan is spending his remaining days at home.

OBITUARIES

Marian Lea Jones ORANGE CITY, Fla. – Marian L. Jones, 89, passed away peacefully at Florida Hospital, Orange City, on July 11, 2013.

Although living in Florida during her last years, she was always a HutchinsonJONES ian first.

Born Marian Lea Astle in Hutchinson, Kansas, on Feb. 27, 1924, she was the daughter of C. Fred Astle and Jimima Astle, of Hutchinson.

She graduated from Hutchinson High School in 1942, and attended Kansas State University before meeting a Naval Aviator, Gordon I. Jones, at Hutchinson Naval Air Station. They were married in 1944.

Aviation then became a hallmark of her life as Navy orders took them to Alameda NAS, Calif., during World War II and Hawaii during the Korean War. Always interested in dance and stage, while in Hawaii she learned the hula and performed with a group of Navy wives on Oahu at many functions, including one for the Territorial Governor. Returning to Hutchinson and then Kansas City for corporate flying positions, she often accompanied him on trips throughout the country.

With the rise in commercial jet travel, they moved to Seattle, Wash., when he was hired by Boeing as a pilot in their 727 and 737 programs.

The Hutchinson News ran this photo in 1969 when Gordon landed a 737 at the Hutchinson Airport on a cross-country trip and picked her up.

Always adventurous and open to foreign living conditions, she spent more than 10 years overseas in five foreign countries, while Gordon flew for the national airline in each country.

Their first destination was the country then known as Burma, where they lived in former British colonial housing in the city then known as Rangoon, followed by a period of time in Afghanistan, where they lived in the Intercontinental Hotel in Kabul. In Afghanistan, for ground transportation, they purchased the former King’s 1950’s vintage Rolls Royce.

When she took a road trip to Kandahar, it broke down and she and other wives with her spent the night in an insurgent area.

Following these adventures, they relocated to modern day Persia, where they lived in Tehran, Iran, during the Shah’s final years. Moving closer to home, her next foreign address was Santa Domingo, Dominican Republic.

They soon purchased a watchdog when their laundry was stolen off the lines.

Her last foreign residency was Singapore. In each foreign country, she overcame with good humor the challenges of finding a place to live and setting up a new household.

She also made it a point to learn the basics of the language and culture in their new setting.

She was a member of PEO for many years at many locations.

She always took care of everyone

BY KATHY HANKS The Hutchinson News khanks@hutchnews.com

DIGHTON – You would never hear, “What about me?” from Elda Jean Richards. For this woman, it was always about everyone else.

Richards, 70, died July 28 after a lifetime of caring for her family, friends and community.

Whether RICHARDS helping at a church dinner or Bible school, she would never take the spotlight. Her work was behind the scenes.

“Is everyone OK?” Elda Jean wanted to be certain of regarding her children and grandchildren, said her son, John Richards. She was always there with her soothing voice and a comforting hug.

“If someone came over, they ate. She would take care of anybody,” John said. “She was unwavering in wanting to care for everybody.”

She taught her family by example. John and his sisters, Lori Salmans and Lynette Bowker, have a strong sense of morality and service because of their mother.

“Mom was always one to put the needs of others before her,” John said.

She also had a sense of humor. One time when her daughters were young, she was helping them with their 4-H baking project.

“Quibbling began and cookie dough was hurled, which landed on mom’s forehead,” said John. “She just looked cross-eyed at the little ball of cookie dough stuck in the middle of her forehead.”

Everyone laughed.

“She was always quick to forgive,” said John, “and she showed unconditional love.”

Another funny memory came when John was in high school. There was a big walk-in storage closet in his bedroom. He happened to come home late one evening and saw his mother

Grant Raymond Colby Jr. Grant Raymond Colby Jr., 72, died Aug. 1, 2013, at Thorne Care Center, Wesley Towers. He was born March 16, 1941, in Hutchinson, the son of Grant Raymond Sr. and Freda HenriCOLBY JR. etta (Sly) Colby.

He graduated from Hutchinson High School in 1959 and attended Hutchinson Community College. He served in the United States Army as a PFC from 1959 – 1962. Grant retired from Cargill Salt after 40 years.

Grant was a member of Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic Church, where he was a PSR teacher and part of the parish council. He was involved in the Cursillo Movement and volunteered as a mentor in the 3M program at the Hutchinson Correctional Facility. Additionally, he volunteered for the Reno County Sheriff ’s Department Senior Patrol, and was a member and former president of ICWUC/UFCW, the International Chemical Workers Union Council.

Grant was a faithful fan of

bent over in the closet looking for something. She didn’t see him.

“Gently as I could I tapped her on the back,” he said. Startled, she jumped.

But instead of screaming, she let out a soft woooo sound.

“I asked her why she didn’t just scream,” he said.

“She told me she didn’t want to wake up dad. That was just another example of her thinking of others.”

Elda Jean met her husband, Howard Richards, while they were both students at Fort Hays State University.

“She was a resident assistant at a dorm and worked the switchboard,” Howard said. “I would go home to help on the farm and I would take this Dighton girl home with me. I would go in to have Elda Jean call the girl down.”

They had a common friend, who finally suggested Howard ask Elda Jean out on a date.

“The rest is history,” Howard said. “For 47 years, we did everything together.”

They played games together and would race to see who would win playing Sudoku every morning when the newspaper arrived. One year when Howard was teaching school, Elda Jean planted the wheat and claimed it was the best wheat they ever had.

After their three children flew the nest, a highlight for the couple was traveling to their grandchildren’s activities.

It was in November 2011 that Elda Jean was diagnosed with amyloidosis which was caused by a form of cancer known as multiple myeloma. She had a stem cell transplant and her health was improving. But in September 2012, she was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. For the woman who had always been the caregiver, she had a hard time giving up that role and letting others care for her.

“We miss her terribly but are so relieved she doesn’t have any more pain,” John said.

the Hutchinson Blue Dragons, attending all the ball games with his son.

On Feb. 23, 1963, he married Mary Curiel in Hutchinson. She survives. Other survivors include: four children, Laura Regier and husband Bart of McPherson, James Colby, Debra Colby, and Susan Mendoza, all of Hutchinson; seven grandchildren, Israel, Sienna and Bella Mendoza, Ian Bleu, Mariah, Cheyenne and Ross Regier; a great-grandchild, Emmerie Flores; a sister, Thelma Garrison of Anaheim, Calif.; and a brother, Leo Colby of Colo.

DRIVEN "I worked on the beast for at least a month putting around fifty hours of blood, sweat and tears into it." – Dakota Lonker This is eighteen-year-old Dakota Lonker of Medicine Lodge’s first year competing in demolition derbies. The Kingman County Fair Demolition Derby on July 27 was only his second derby.

Photos by Tim Goessman Dakota Lonker laughs in the pits as he explains how tight his seat belt is.

Lonker gets hit by Scott Murphy during a heat at the Kingman County Fair Demolition Derby July 27.

Demolition derby drivers listen to an official going over the rules.

Lonker smiles as he pokes his head out from inside his car after his final round in the derby. Lonker placed sixth.

Dalton Cope sits in line before the first heat of the derby. Cope placed seventh.

The new Dillons Marketplace near 30th and Waldron is still a month or so away from opening, but the pocket park and trail connection built just west of the store are finished.

The idea for the park grew out of discussions between Dillons, the city and the Hutchinson Community Foundation after Mark Fenton, a public health, planning and transportation consultant, came to town last year, heard about the new Dillons development and suggested linking it to the nearby city hikeand-bike trail.

The trail runs on the west side of the GVI drainage ditch, just west of the new store. The city built a connection across the ditch at 30th Avenue, then back north along the east side of the ditch and then east to the pocket park.

That park, built at the western edge of the Dillons parking lot at Dillons’ expense, has a shelter, picnic tables and several park benches. It has been landscaped with sod and seven trees and surrounded by a wrought-iron fence.

It should be an ideal resting place for those using the trail, and a shaded place to sit while sipping a cold drink bought at Dillons before heading home. Some who live far from the trail will be able to drive to Dillons, park there, and then take to the trail in running shoes or on their bikes.

– Ken Stephens Solar pioneer Former Lyons resident Jim Arwood was one of five people recognized by the Arizona Republic newspaper last week as “solar pioneers” – key players in helping make solar power mainstream in the state of Arizona.

The article noted that Arwood “first became interested in energy issues in grade school, when the federal government proposed dumping nuclear waste in his hometown of Lyons, Kan.,” a plan that was eventually scrapped.

Arwood was a member of the Phoenix Steering Committee for Sun Day, which helped plan the first big solar fair in the state on May 3, 1978, where homemade solar ovens, water heaters and greenhouses were displayed.

Arwood managed the state’s Solar Energy Research Commission in 1987 and served in the state Energy Office from 1987 to 2010. Then-Gov. Janet Napolitano named him director of the office in 2006.

Arwood returned briefly to Lyons in 2001 when he bought his parents’ home, living there until 2004, when he again returned to Arizona.

While in Kansas, Arwood had consulting contracts with the Kansas Energy Office, working closely with former Energy Office Director Jim Ploger and the current director, Ryan Freed.

Arwood is now a consultant in Arizona.

Review: Troubled waters swirl in novel

“Sea Creatures”

by Susanna Daniel There’s a charmer at the heart of “Sea Creatures,” and it’s not the novel’s narrator, Georgia, who is plenty likable in her own admittedly stumbling, searching way.

It’s her 3-year-old son, Frankie, whose refusal to talk has begun to weigh on Georgia’s marriage to the boy’s father, Graham. It weighs on the reader, too, as Frankie is recognizably bright, playful and inquisitive, but never quite ready to connect verbally.

second novel after her first, “Stiltsville,” won the PEN/Bingham Prize for outstanding debut fiction.

In “Sea Creatures,” she returns to the waters around Miami, including Stiltsville. It is an endearing, gripping second tour of this mesmerizing locale.

Almost like an actionfilled, emotional memoir, the story is told by Georgia in a voice that can be beautifully descriptive. It can also be reflective, confessional with an edge: “When I thought what life would be like for Frankie in school and as an adult if he never started to talk, I felt a fist tighten around my heart.”

Husband’s thoughtlessness breaks his wife’s heart Dear Annie: I am a 60year-old woman and just found out that there’s a small chance I may have uterine cancer. I’m scheduled for additional tests. I haven’t told friends or family because it seems too early to push the panic button. I told my husband, of course, but his response left me hurt and confused.

His only reaction was to ask whether our insurance would cover any costs. At the very least, I could have used a hug or some show of concern. After I told him how much his lack of response hurt me, he apologized and said he was scared, too. He is a great guy, but empathy has never been one of his strong suits.

The problem is, I am still very hurt by his initial reaction. Every time I think about it, I want to cry. – Still Hurting in Texas Dear Still: What a difficult time this must be for

Annie’s Mailbox

Kathy Mitchell, Marcy Sugar you. Please forgive your husband for his thoughtless response. When confronted with such potentially devastating information, it was easier for him to focus on the cost rather than the possibility that he could lose you. You already know that empathy is not his strong suit, so help him out a little. If you need him to comfort you, teach him how to do it. We think he will want to rise to the occasion.

Dear Annie: My sister always leaves big tips – like $5 for a cup of coffee. She also is overly generous in other ways. She gave our teenage niece several pairs of expensive boots and was furious when the girl then

she overtips, but your presence may be a major source of support for her.

Dear Annie: This is in response to “Frustrated Daughter-in-Law,” who said her mother-in-law has anxiety and self-diagnosed fibromyalgia. Your comment that Mom “may like her maladies” made it sound as if we have a choice in the matter.

Fibromyalgia can be a disabling disorder. Anxiety, depression and irritable bowel are all very real components of the illness.

I am only in my mid-50s and also find it difficult to exercise. I don’t leave the house unless I have to or unless it is for something I really enjoy.

When you have fibromyalgia, you learn to budget your energy. You owe a lot of people an apology. – In Her Shoes Dear Shoes: Our comment had nothing to do with the legitimate pains of fibromyalgia. We know that

many people suffer from this energy-draining illness.

But Mom has not seen a doctor about her various maladies and is unwilling to be tested.

She doesn’t actually know what’s wrong and is self-diagnosing in a way that allows her to maintain her current status. There could be something else going on that can be treated, and she should be willing to find out.

Review: Rowling hits a strike with crime novel People ● From Page B1

BY DEEPTI HAJELA Associated Press

“The Cuckoo’s Calling” (Mulholland Books),

by Robert Galbraith (J.K. Rowling) Full disclosure: I never would have guessed.

I’ve read every book J.K. Rowling has published, some of them several times over. OK, all of them several times over. And ROWLING still, I doubt I would have picked up on anything that would have made me think that SHE was the author behind “The Cuckoo’s Calling.”

I almost wish I hadn’t known, so I wouldn’t have read it with some of my attention in search of clues that would have made me suspicious that the book’s author wasn’t, in fact, an ex-military police officer and was actually one of the

world’s most famous storytellers.

Because this is a good story, one that is entertaining enough to merit a read even if Robert Galbraith, Rowling’s pseudonym, had been a real person who really wrote it.

“The Cuckoo’s Calling” introduces readers to Cormoran Strike, a London private detective with his own complicated backstory – he’s the son of a rock star and a groupie, has a prosthetic leg to replace the

SUNDAY EVENING 6 PM

sold them on eBay. Six years ago, my sister let her house go to mold.

When the local police began asking about her, I stepped in and found someone willing to buy her home and rehab it.

She has since lived in an extended-stay hotel and is now on antidepressants.

I recently met her for lunch. We both ordered soup for a total of $8. I left a 20 percent tip, but as I was walking out the door, I caught her checking out my tip and then adding to it.

She brags about her big tips.

Frankly, I don’t want to meet up with her anymore.

How should I handle this?– Indy Dear Indy: Has your sister been screened to see if she is bipolar? Her antidepressant may not be adequate.

We know her behavior is irritating, but please don’t cut her off over this. It is a minor annoyance to you if

6:30

one he lost in Afghanistan during his military service, and he just ended a difficult romantic relationship. He’s also quite clever.

Along with his startedout-temporary-but-whodidn’t-know-that-was-going -to-last secretary Robin Ellacott, he looks into the death of a supermodel, Lula.

Everyone assumes it was suicide, but Strike is asked to investigate it by someone who tells him it had to have been otherwise.

His investigation takes Strike into the worlds of high fashion and big money as he makes his way to the truth.

Rowling’s (er, Galbraith’s? Whoever.) literary gift is on display in this work.

She crafts an entertaining story with characters who hold the reader’s interest, and comes up with an ending that I’ll admit I was surprised by.

It gets a little too clever in some places, with the fi-

nal denouement tying together some earlier elements in a way that’s almost a little too pat, and some of the leaps Strike makes seem a little too outof-nowhere.

And it wouldn’t be a J.K. Rowling book if it didn’t have lots and LOTS of description, not all of which seems necessary.

But overall, it’s a fun read, with a main character you can care about and one you’ll want to see again in other adventures.

It reads like Rowling had fun writing it.

There’s a certain lightness to it that was missing from her other grown-up fiction endeavor, “The Casual Vacancy.” Perhaps that came from the freedom of writing and publishing under a pseudonym without all the pressure of her own backstory.

It will be interesting to see if she can maintain that sense of fun now that everyone knows it’s her and that particular mystery has been solved.

Ed positions open LIBERAL – Liberal USD 480 is a growing district with some growing pains. As of Thursday, the district had about 10 positions to fill before the start of school.

Jason McAfee, director of human resources and public relations at USD 480, said he was pretty confident the classroom teaching jobs would be filled, but was less confident about finding a district psychologist and a technology coach. The latter was among new positions created by the school board.

Some applicants are from outside Kansas, and McAfee said USD 480 doesn’t have trouble recruiting people from Wyoming, Michigan and Minnesota to southwest Kansas.

Recruiting in Pennsylvania, though, is tougher, McAfee said.

Applicants from Pennsylvania initially said yes, but then said no, he said.

WIN BY INFERENCE

East-West vulnerable. East deals.

NORTH ♠ Q 10 2 ♥K962 ♦ Q J 10 6 ♣Q8 WEST EAST ♠4 ♠9863 ♥Q75 ♥3 ♦ A53 ♦K874 ♣J97653 ♣ A K 10 4 SOUTH ♠AKJ75 ♥ A J 10 8 4 ♦92 ♣2

The bidding: EAST Pass Pass Pass Pass

SOUTH ♠ 1♠ 2♥ ♥ 4♥ ♥

WEST Pass Pass Pass

Opening lead: Six of ♣

NORTH 1NT 3♥ ♥ Pass

Study the bidding and play of this deal. Did someone err? If so, who and how?

By agreement, North’s one no trump response was forcing. Had South rebid in a minor, North planned to jump to three spades to show invitational values but only three-card support — a marginal choice with an aceless hand. When South rebid two hearts, North switched horses by inviting game in South’s second suit with a raise and South was happy to accept.

West led a low club to East’s king.

East continued with the ace, declarer ruffing. South now took the percentage play in hearts, leading a trump to the king and a trump back to the ace. When West showed out, declarer had no way to avoid losing a heart and two diamonds — down one.

Perfectly normal, wasn’t it? What is your opinion, and why?

Considered in a vacuum, South’s play in hearts was eminently correct.

But that is seldom the way one should think at the bridge table.

Here East, who had passed originally, has shown up with ace and king of clubs and the opening lead has marked him with a high diamond — West would surely have led a diamond holding the ace-king. Give East the queen of hearts as well, and the defender would surely have opened the bidding. East would then have at least two-and-a-half quick tricks and 12 points or more in high cards.

With that information at hand, South should have spurned the percentage play in trumps in favor of finessing West for her majesty by cashing the ace and running the jack.

That would have landed the contract instead of down one.

“We’re enlarging existing buildings, just adding additional square footage to house some improved processes,” explained General Manager Tom Oxley.

The largest project will add some 26,000 square feet to the company’s south building to house a new conveyor-ized

powder coat paint line.

“About 50 percent of the new space will be consumed by the new paint processing facility and equipment,” Oxley said. “There will also be a cool-off area, where the parts come back down to room temperature and loading and unloading areas to take parts off the rack and

put new parts on.”

Some 90 percent of the products it manufactures are painted, Oxley said, “and our current process is a little behind what industry expectations are. We want to upgrade to meet or exceed our customer expectations.”

Monday ● Institute for Supply Management releases its service sector index for July.

The Hutchinson News jgreen@hutchnews.com

After working unsuccessfully for nearly a year to find someone to open a restaurant in a downtown building he owns, Hutchinson resident Michael Lizalde decided to do it himself.

Lizalde is targeting the opening of 14 North, in the former W Building at 14 N. Main, in advance of Third Thursday on Aug. 15.

“We are going to be a sports bar and live entertainment venue,” said Lizalde. “We’re going to feature your sports bar type of menu, with wings and burgers, but also specialize in hand-cut, high-quality steaks.”

His signature burger, Lizalde said, will be a blend of brisket and ribeye, with no chuck.

They’ve developed a dozen chicken wing sauces, he said, all of which they’ll make in-house. The steaks will come from Kansas-producer Creekstone Farms.

BUSINESS BRIEFS

Beware the barrage of ‘free’ offers that aren’t free at all

BY THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU

How would you like a free iPad? Care for a free credit report? Free money from a government grant could come in handy, couldn’t it?

Surely you wouldn’t want to pass up this opportunity to claim your free $1,000 WalMart gift card? How about trying our amazing product for free?

They can make you feel like the luckiest person of Earth, but the folks behind these offers have you pegged differently: They’re betting you are the most gullible person on Earth.

The Better Business Bureau says beware: “Free” almost never is.

For that reason, it can be worthwhile to review some of the current high-profile “free” offers, and learn what is really behind them.

‘Free’ trial offers Trial offers can be a great way to find out whether you like a product, but in many cases you’ll be agreeing to buy additional products and services by default, unless you cancel within a specified period of time. Without knowing it, you could be enrolling yourself in a membership, subscription or service contract, complete with fees automatically charged to your credit card.

For this reason it is vital that you read the entire offer’s fine print. If you have questions that are not answered in writing, contact the company and ask them.

Here are questions that the BBB and the Federal Trade Commission recommend asking: ● Is the free offer related to a membership, subscrip-

tion or extended service contract? ● Do I have to contact the company to avoid receiving more merchandise or services? ● Whom do I contact to cancel? ● Will I get other products with the free one and will I have to pay for them or send them back if they’re unwanted? ● Is there a membership fee and is it refundable? ● Are any charges going to my credit card? ● What company is offering the trial and what is their address? ● Is there a shipping and handling fee?

‘Free’ grants Offers made in advertisements or in phone calls from those claiming to represent a government agency, can claim your application for a grant is guaranteed to be accepted. It could be for education costs, home repairs, home business expenses or unpaid bill assistance.

The FTC says that “money for nothing” grant offers are almost always scams. If it’s a phone call, they’ll congratulate you and then request checking account information so they can “deposit your money into your account,” or charge you a one-time “processing fee.” You will get no money and they will take yours.

Remember to never give out bank account information to someone you don’t know. Never pay money for a “free” grant. Be aware that they can make up names that sound like official government agencies,

and they can trick caller ID systems.

‘Free’ iPads, gift cards These scams continue despite the fact that the FTC has sued companies for them. You will be charged fees and incur other obligations like applying for credit cards.

The scammers are also after your private information so they can sell it to third parties. Those parties then send pre-recorded messages to you for whatever purposes they desire. Also, who really knows where your information can go and how it can be used?

‘Free’ credit reports The real goal of most companies that advertise free credit reports is to sign you up for “credit monitoring” and other services, putting from $15 to $30 monthly charges on your credit card.

If you don’t cancel within a trial period, the charges can go on and on.

Go to AnnualCreditReport.com to get a free credit report once a year. It’s the only federally authorized site for the reports. Don’t find yourself at one of the frequently hyped sites that try to sign you up for monthly fees.

Break free of the tangle of “free” offers that really aren’t. Call the Better Business Bureau with questions at (800) 856-2417 or visit our website at ww.kansasplains.bbb.org.

For more details, contact BBB representative Denise Groene at the phone number or website listed above.

Berkshire Hathaway’s profit jumps THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OMAHA, Neb. – Berkshire Hathaway Inc.’s second-quarter profit jumped 46 percent as Warren Buffett’s company reported big paper gains on the value of its investments and derivative contracts.

On Friday, Berkshire reported net income of $4.54 billion, or $2,763 per Class A share. That’s up from $3.1 billion, or $1,882 per Class A share, last year.

The biggest factor behind the big swing in earnings was the estimated value of Berkshire’s investments and derivatives. This year, those were worth $622 million.

Last year, Berkshire recorded a $612 million paper loss on those.

Berkshire’s revenue grew

16 percent to $44.69 billion as its more than 80 subsidiaries generally performed well.

The three analysts surveyed by FactSet expected Berkshire to report earnings per Class A share of $2,163.63.

Several years ago, Berkshire sold derivative contracts that are tied to either the value of several global stock indexes or credit defaults. Berkshire must estimate the value of those contracts every time it reports earnings even though the contracts won’t mature for at least several more years.

So the true value of the derivatives won’t be known until later, but they can create big swings in Berkshire’s net income from quarter to quarter.

Without Berkshire’s investments and derivatives,

the company reported operating earnings of $3.92 billion, or $2,384 per Class A share. That’s up from $3.72 billion a year ago, or $2,252 per Class A share.

Berkshire’s BNSF railroad performed well in the quarter and contributed $884 million to the conglomerate’s profits, up from $802 million a year ago.

BNSF said volume was up 3 percent this year and rates improved 2 percent as the railroad hauled more coal, crude oil and intermodal containers of products. Berkshire said higher natural gas prices and low utility stockpiles drove coal demand higher.

Edward Jones analyst Tom Lewandowski said Berkshire’s 2010 acquisition of BNSF looks better and better as time passes. “The ability to deliver

consistent results that grow steadily is attractive,” said Lewandowski, who recommends buying Berkshire stock.

Berkshire’s insurance businesses, which include reinsurance giant General Re and car insurer Geico, contributed $530 million to Berkshire’s net income in the quarter. That was down from $619 million last year mostly because Berkshire recorded $189 million in pretax losses related to flooding in Europe.

Several of Berkshire’s businesses are tied to the housing market, including Acme Brick, Shaw carpet and the HomeServices of America network of real estate brokers.

All of those companies posted stronger profits as the housing market continued to recover.

Mental Health First Aid program recognized

BY THE NEWS STAFF

The National Council for Behavioral Health recently announced the addition of Mental Health First Aid to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration’s National Registry of Evidence-based Programs and Practices (NREPP) by the federal government.

Horizons Mental Health Center, a member of the Hutchinson Regional Healthcare System, is the only local agency that offers this program to Reno Coun-

ty, as well as in Barber, Harper, Kingman and Pratt counties upon request.

The NREPP is a searchable database of mental health and substance abuse interventions where the public can find programs and practices that may best meet their needs and learn how to implement them in their communities.

The Mental Health First Aid program is an in-person, interactive training designed for anyone to learn about mental illnesses and addictions, including risk

factors and warning signs.

Similar to CPR training, participants learn a five-step action plan to help people who are developing a mental health problem or are in crisis. It is a low-cost, high-impact program that emphasizes the concept of neighbors helping neighbors.

The program was adapted from the original program created in Australia in 2001.

The program is now used in more than 20 countries and every state in the U.S. “Horizons implemented the Mental Health First Aid

BUSINESS AGRICULTURE BRIEFS

U.S. wheat remains a hot world commodity MANHATTAN – The U.S. grain marketing system is unmatched and transparent but complex. That’s why U.S. Wheat Associates (USW) has 17 offices worldwide to pave the way for U.S. export growth.

Recently, representatives from USW’s offices worldwide gathered for a world staff conference. This meeting allowed participants to share experiences and review the market situation for U.S. wheat. Here are a few notes of interest from some of the offices: Lagos, Nigeria: Nigeria is the leading customer of U.S. hard red winter wheat.

In the 2012/13 marketing year, Nigerian millers purchased 93 million bushels of hard red winter wheat, reaching a 73 percent market share. The U.S. does face several new challenges in the Nigerian market. Violence in the region has caused Nigeria to close its borders into Niger and Chad, two countries to which Nigeria would typically export flour.

Also, in an effort to support local cassava farmers, the Nigerian government has imposed a 15 percent levy on wheat imports and requires millers to blend 10 percent cassava flour with wheat flour.

Philippines: The U.S. has an 80 percent share of the Philippines’ wheat market, which leads USW to focus significant energy on increasing consumption. USW, together with local miller associations, started the “Celebrate Bread!” campaign. The campaign educates consumers about the nutritional benefits of bread and baked goods through events like World Bread Day. Demand for wheat foods in this large region continues to grow and USW is working with flour millers to help them meet that demand using U.S. wheat.

Santiago, Chile: Colombia is the largest South American customer, with

imports of around 22 million bushels annually. The U.S.Colombia free-trade agreement was implemented on May 15, 2012, permanently eliminating import duties on wheat, allowing U.S. market share to increase to 44 percent. As of July 18, current year wheat sales are up 38 percent over this time last year.

Mexico City: USW is helping commercial milling, baking and food companies in Guatemala reduce costs and improve quality using U.S. wheat. As a result, Guatemala has all but stopped importing Canadian wheat and now imports five classes of U.S. wheat, including 6.3 million bushels of hard red winter wheat already this marketing year.

Garden City, Manhattan are ag conference sites MANHATTAN – Kansas State University will host the 2013 Agricultural Lenders Conference at two sites this fall: The Oct. 8 conference will be in Garden City, with the Oct. 9 event in Manhattan.

“Because of the constantly changing factors in agriculture, including farm legislation and supply-and-demand issues in the U.S. and overseas, this program is designed to address the specific informational needs of the Kansas financial community,” said Rich Llewelyn, KState agricultural economist and conference coordinator.

The conference begins with registration at 8:15 a.m. at both sites and the program starts at 9 a.m.

Presentation topics by KState Research and Extension specialists in agricultural economics include: ● Grain Market Prospects for 2013-2014 (Dan O’Brien); ● Kansas Land Values and Cash Rents (Mykel Taylor and Kevin Dhuyvetter); ● Macroeconomic Outlook for 2014 (Brian Briggeman); ● Machinery Costs (Kevin Dhuyvetter); ● Kansas Farm Management Association Update;

US rig count up six to 1,782 THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

HOUSTON – Oilfield services company Baker Hughes Inc. says the number of rigs actively exploring for oil and natural gas in the U.S. increased by six this week to 1,782.

The Houston-based company said in its weekly report Friday that 1,388 rigs were exploring for oil and 388 for gas. Six were listed as miscellaneous.

Stomach bug tied to salad at restaurants THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON – The Food and Drug Administration says an outbreak of stomach illnesses in Iowa and Nebraska is linked to salad mix served at Olive Garden and Red Lobster restaurants in those states and supplied by a Mexican farm.

The outbreak of cyclospora infections has sickened more than 400 people in 16 states.

A year ago there were 1,924 active rigs.

Of the major oil- and gasproducing states, West Virginia gained 11 rigs, Alaska and Louisiana each gained five, Texas gained three and Ohio gained one.

Oklahoma lost eight rigs, New Mexico lost three, Colorado, Kansas and Pennsylvania each lost two and North Dakota, Utah and Wyoming each lost one.

Arkansas and California were unchanged.

● Crop Insurance & the Farm Bill (Art Barnaby); and ● Beef Cattle Market Outlook for 2013-2014 (Glynn Tonsor).

The Oct. 8 conference in Garden City will be at the KState Southwest Research-Extension Center at 4500 E. Mary St. The Oct. 9 conference in Manhattan will be at the International Grains Program Conference Center at 1980 Kimball Ave. The cost to attend at either location is $85 if paid by Oct. 4 and $95 after that date and at the door. The fee includes conference materials, morning and break refreshments and lunch.

More details about the conference, including online registration, are available at www.agmanager.info/events /ag_lenders/2013/. More details are also available by contacting Llewelyn at (785) 532-1504 or rvl@ksu.edu.

Also, stockmanship principles and low-stress cattle-handling methods will be studied.

All participants will earn BQA certification, which is valid for three years.

Each workshop is free of charge and includes a meal.

Pre-registration one week or more prior to the event is requested by calling the Beef Cattle Institute at (785) 5324844 or emailing kjoliver@ vet.ksu.edu.

Walk-in attendees are welcome but aren’t guaranteed a meal.

Growing ●From Page C1 without having to repaint,” said Fell Jr., known as Little Frank, though he has several inches in height on his father. “You gain access to the dent and then work it out using specialized hand tools. We like to say you massage the dent out. You may have to work the dent with 100 different pushes before you get it back to where it needs to be.”

The process takes patience and sometimes persistence, Fell said.

Fell taught himself the process, renting a video and then working in his garage on a dented vehicle hood on his days off from welding or in the evenings for several months. “I saw the local need for someone to service local body shops and commercial locations,” Fell said.

His service area ran from Salina to Harper to Russell, and he continues to provide contract service for a couple

I Do Over ●From Page C1 flower girl baskets and ringbearer pillows to lights, candles and vases.”

Everything, that is, but wedding attire.

She buys her merchandise both new and “gently used.”

“Some things I’ve handcrafted myself, some I’ve purchased from a bride who just had a wedding, some are new,” she said. “Weddings are terribly expensive and all that stuff is used such a short time, sometimes just a few hours.”

While she sells the merchandise, rather than renting it, King said she also may buy some back. “Like any bride, they can bring them back to me and I may purchase them back,” King said.

If a bride has an idea for something she can’t find, King is willing to help her design it. “If she’s looking for a green table runner, for example, and can’t find it, I’ll help her locate the pieces and put it together,” she said.

Her hours the first weekend of each month are Friday, 1 to 5 p.m., Saturday 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Sunday 1 to 5 p.m. To schedule an appointment, call (620) 200-6667, or visit her Facebook page at www.facebook.com/ IDoOverWeddings.

of local body shops, Fell said.

He started in his dad’s shop, but eventually grew enough to need his own space, and in 2006 moved into the former Harley shop in South Hutchinson.

In 2007, Fell Sr. closed Frank’s Truck Service and semi-retired. He then started selling trailers as FTS Trailer Sales through his son’s location.

“He sells all the smaller trailers, like gooseneck, ATV and equipment trailers,” Fell said. “He also has some enclosed trailers.

There are just a varied number of sizes and types, Maxey Welding and H&H Cargo. It started as a retirement deal, but it’s grown every year so that now it’s a full-time job.”

Both businesses now operate 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday.

He’s received a lot of businesses due to the recent hailstorm, Fell said, but he noted a lot of the damage is beyond paintless repair because of the severity of dents, based on the size of

the hail.

If the dent cracks the paint, or if it’s in certain places on the vehicle’s body where the repairman can’t push it out without cracking the paint, a body shop should do the repair, Fell said.

“It’s great having a relationship with body shops, so if I can’t repair it, they (customers) can go through the body shop,” Fell said. “I do what I do, and then it goes to the body shop for the best repair.”

“The general public doesn’t have much knowledge

how it’s done and they can be misled pretty easily,” Fell said. “You need someone with integrity who’s going to repair the car to standards before the hail. With a typical hailstorm it’s not that big of a deal, but with the amount of damage (with the recent storm) it’s a matter of integrity to be honest whether a vehicle should or shouldn’t be repaired. A lot of times, the insurance companies don’t see all the damage. We don’t mind working with the insurance company to rectify that.”

OPINION

The Hutchinson News

Editorial Board JOHN D. MONTGOMERY / Editor-Publisher MARY RINTOUL / Managing Editor JASON PROBST / News Editor PAT SANGIMINO / Sports Editor

EDITORIAL

Lucy at it again Nerhan remains spoiler in building development owntown Wiley Building owner George Nerhan is like Lucy D setting the football for Charlie Brown to kick, always without fail pulling the ball away from poor Charlie Brown at the last moment, causing him to whiff and fall to the ground.

Yes, Nerhan remains the owner of the iconic downtown building.

The Arizona man who bought the building in 1995 for $40,000 in a Resolution Trust Corp. auction failed to show last week for a closing on the sale of the property to a Wichita developer who plans to turn it into apartments and retail space.

Manske & Associates in January managed to obtain an option to buy the property pending the awarding of tax credits necessary to make the project feasible. The tax credits have been assigned to the project, but when Manske went to exercise the option to purchase the building for $950,000, Nerhan apparently balked.

In a lawsuit filed recently, Manske is seeking court enforcement of the contract with Nerhan.

Nerhan claims that Manske didn’t exercise the option by the July 1

deadline despite notice being given in advance of that date by letter, phone call and email, all detailed in the lawsuit. Nerhan, however, scheduled a closing time July 25 and even made an appearance at the title company the day before.

Alas, like Lucy’s football, he was a no-show at the critical moment.

Hutchinson can’t wash its hands of Nerhan fast enough.

That the Wiley Building ended up in his hands for a song was a shame from the beginning.

Nerhan has done nothing with the property other than let it deteriorate, drive off the few remaining tenants and try to avoid paying his property taxes. Originally asking $3 million for the building, Nerhan has disappointed previous potential buyers. That Manske got an option to buy seemed a miracle.

It isn’t as if Nerhan didn’t do well at Hutchinson’s expense, considering what he paid for the building, which is appraised by Reno County at just $275,000. You’d think he could collect his winnings and go away.

Manske would appear to have a strong case. Now it is up to the court to render a swift judgment in the developer’s favor and enforce the contract in short order so that the project can get underway without jeopardizing the tax credits.

Lindsey Bauman/The Hutchinson News

Principals of the Wiley Plaza Development group are suing owner George Nerhan to force him to comply with a deal to sell the building.

Shallow selections Pro-jobs’ list goes against support by local chambers the minds of the folks at the IanynKansas Chamber of Commerce, legislator who doesn’t toe the chamber’s line is akin to a jobkiller who is standing in the way of progress.

The Kansas chamber recently sent out its list of pro-job legislators – comprised of only those legislators who voted with the chamber’s position at least 80 percent of the time on “key issues” during the legislative session.

Before the annual lawmaking session begins, the chamber publishes its legislative agenda, which includes its key issues. As an added measure, according to some lawmakers, the organization also sends out reminders ahead of upcoming key votes throughout the session – as a way to put them on notice that the chamber is keeping a close eye on their behavior and prepared to punish anyone who steps out of line.

The rub, however, is that local chambers of commerce largely have found those lawmakers, unworthy of the Kansas chamber’s endorsement, to be enthusiastic supporters of local economic development efforts. In fact those organizations have found their

lawmakers easy to work with and eager participants in bringing jobs and investments to their communities.

The Kansas Chamber of Commerce is the single best example of lobbying run amuck. Instead of an organization hoping to bend a lawmaker’s ear and provide useful information about policy decisions, the chamber holds the power, influence and money effectively to blackmail legislators who don’t march in lockstep with the chamber’s positions.

Today’s Kansas chamber is less about business development and more about making an investment – using its influence, money and near-constant lobbying – that will pay a dividend by turning elected leaders into good followers.

The chamber’s list of pro-job legislators is a meaningless list that does little more than punish those lawmakers who dare hold to independent thought – proven by its omission of Rep. Don Hineman, R-Dighton, who voted with the Chamber 75 percent of the time.

Voters who really want to know about their legislator’s pro-job credentials will be better served contacting their local chambers rather than accepting a list manufactured by an organization that seems determined to run the state by proxy.

COLUMNISTS

Still dreaming about bitter.com Facebook has become the thorn in my side, the bone in my craw, the bane of my existence. Get the picture? If not, check Facebook because users post everything there.

Nothing is sacred or secret any longer. If it happened, it’s on Facebook, the gossip rag of the 21st century.

Thus, social media for some has inflamed anti-social tendencies.

Count me as a member of the rebellion.

I find myself boycotting personal Facebook pages and Twitter accounts for the most part because of the stupidity of some posts. These social media outlets have become way too personal, especially when you discover a posting about yourself on someone else’s FB page. If I wanted all my Facebook friends to partake of such info, I would post it myself. So my radio silence on my own Facebook page ought to be a clue.

And I don’t need to know, nor do I want to, that Aunt Philomena had her tongue removed because she talked too much. Nor do I need to see a picture of said tongue on Facebook.

That, of course, is an exaggeration, but people do post some dumb comments and photos on Facebook.

And this is no exaggeration: I don’t need the tit for tat, gloves off holy war of words waged between two women who both were married to the same guy at some point.

It is jaw-dropping material, and they ought to duke it out in private, sparing the rest of us.

I think Facebook and Twitter are great tools for newspapers, their readers and other businesses. I follow responsible news organizations and national journalists on both. But truth be known, the 2012 political season cinched my decision to participate and view social media posts as little as possible. People got nasty

Basically speaking

Mary Rintoul about their politics, which forced me to ignore the diatribes. I headed to the social media sidelines and stayed there ever since. It was evident people didn’t want to engage in civil discussion but instead wanted to sling their left and right mud balls.

Though I chiefly am critical of personal Twitter and Facebook pages, some businesses have made their own social media messes. I recently was told about a Facebook page well known for buying, selling and trading items.

The content has morphed into a site where users are seeking out babysitters for the evening. Really? You’re going to trust your children’s care to someone you found just minutes ago on Facebook?

That’s a recipe for disaster on many fronts.

Alleged adults are responsible for destroying the original intent of Facebook. Years ago they suddenly discovered Facebook, a concept invented to connect high

school and college kids with their peers. It all went to hell in a hand basket when adults decided to get in the game. The kids acted more responsibly than their parents and relatives, and there is talk – and some evidence – that the younger crowd is turning to other social media outlets and dismantling their Facebook accounts. Who can blame them?

Well, I have another option to consider. A co-worker vowed a couple years ago to create the perfect antidote for Twitter called bitter.com. It was at a time when everyone was going gaga over Facebook and Twitter and acting like they were tripping on mushrooms – not that I would know about such trips.

Bitter.com would allow disillusioned Twitter users an outlet for writing – in 140 characters or less – what one was really feeling. For example, those “life is a bowl of cherries” Twitterites would get a dose of this if they went to bitter.com: “Someone needs to shut that woman’s pie hole.” It’s a way of saying what you really feel without offending the person who’s working your last nerve.

Bitter.com likely would not be the most politically correct form of communication, but neither are Facebook and Twitter these days.

And though not politically incorrect, I am tired of people who daily post a picture of what they concocted for supper. Please stop.

Some of your creations look horribly inedible. You’re simply setting yourselves up for a bitter.com barrage.

Alas. my co-worker has yet to make good on his threat to establish bitter .com. But a girl can dream, especially if it keeps her from thinking about Aunt Philomena’s tongue.

Fox ‘News’ sinks to a new low with interview No it was not the most excruciating thing ever seen on television.

We’ve seen worse.

We’ve seen Roseanne singing the national anthem, Magic Johnson hosting a talk show and Paris Hilton existing. But if it’s not No. 1 on that list of god-awful TV, author Reza Aslan’s recent interview with Lauren Green of Fox “News” is surely in the top 10.

Google it if you haven’t seen it.

Or just ask some woman to rake her fingernails down a chalkboard for 10 minutes. Same difference.

Over and over again, speaking in the honeyed, patient tone you’d use to instruct a slow child, Aslan answers the question that has been put to him by reciting his bona fides. He is a historian. He is an expert on the New Testament.

He is fluent in biblical Greek. He holds four degrees. He has spent 20 years researching the origins of Christianity. The study of religion is his job.

And over and over again, doing her best imitation of Mike Wallace pinning miscreants to the wall (if Mike Wallace had shilled for a company of right-wing propagandists playacting at journalism) Green keeps bringing him back to what she regards as the central issue: “You’re a Muslim,” she informs him, “so why did you write a book about the founder of Christianity?”

The book in question is “Zealot: The Life and Times of Jesus of Nazareth,” a search for the historicity of the itinerant rabbi who founded the biggest religion on Earth. On that basis, you’d expect it to be controversial. Green, however, seems less vexed by the book’s content than by its author’s faith.

“Why would you be interested in the founder of Christianity?” she asks.

Leonard Pitts And, “You’re not just writing about a religion from a point of view of an observer.”

And, “You’ve been on several programs and never disclosed that you’re a Muslim.” To which Aslan replies that his religion is dis-

closed on the second page of the book and in every media interview he’s ever done.

It goes on like that for 10 cringeinducing minutes. At some point, you find yourself drifting in a stupor of disbelief, amusing yourself by imagining how Green might have interviewed other authors in history: “John Steinbeck, you’re from California. Why did you write

about people from Oklahoma?”

“Tom Wolfe, you’re no astronaut. Why did you write about astronauts?”

“Alexis de Tocqueville, you’re a Frenchman. Why did you write about the United States?”

That’s the subtext of Green’s interview, after all, the idea that one must belong to a given tribe before one may write about that tribe.

But of course, that’s not quite what she’s saying, is it? No, that stricture only applies if one is a Muslim.

For all their professed abhorrence of so-called “identity politics,” it is for many conservatives an article of faith that if one’s identity includes Islam, that fact trumps everything else: character, upbringing, beliefs, politics, or fluency in biblical Greek. Think Glenn Beck asking a Muslim congressman to prove he is not in league with America’s enemies.

Think Michele Bachmann accusing an aide to the secretary of state of terrorist ties.

You are your tribe. More to the point, you are the worst iteration of your tribe, the scapegoat for all our fears of your tribe.

So Fox’s mugging of Aslan was an embarrassment, but hardly a surprise. The nation seems to have grown uncomfortably comfortable with the sort of “thinking” from which it proceeded.

The encounter drove Aslan’s book to the top of the Amazon best sellers list, which is good news for him. But the better news is that he lives in a country where the right to follow any line of scholarship he wants is carved in stone, regardless of how he conceives God. There is a word for that: Freedom.

Lauren Green should look it up.

OPINION ON THE RIGHT

Cal Thomas

Charles Krauthammer

How fractured is the GOP?

Meaningless concessions

WASHINGTON – A combination of early presidential maneuvering and internal policy debate is feeding yet another iteration of that media perennial: the great Republican crackup. This time it’s tea party insurgents versus getalong establishment fogies fighting principally over two things: (a) national security and (b) Obamacare. (a) National security Gov. Chris Christie recently challenged Sen. Rand Paul over his opposition to the National Security Agency metadata program. Paul has also tangled with Sen. John McCain and other internationalists over drone warfare, democracy promotion and, more generally, intervention abroad.

So what else is new? The return of the most venerable strain of conservative foreign policy – isolationism – was utterly predictable. GOP isolationists dominated until Pearl Harbor and then acquiesced to an activist internationalism during the Cold War because of a fierce detestation of communism.

With communism gone, the conservative coalition should have fractured long ago. This was delayed by 9/11 and the rise of radical Islam. But now, 12 years into that era – after Afghanistan and Iraq, after drone wars and the NSA revelations – the natural tension between isolationist and internationalist tendencies has resurfaced.

In fact, both parties are internally split on domestic surveillance, as reflected in the very close recent House vote on curbing the NSA. This is not civil war. It’s a healthy debate that helps recalibrate the delicate line between safety and security as conditions (threat level and surveillance technology, for example) change.

The more fundamental GOP divide is over foreign aid and other manifestations of our role as the world’s leading power. The Paulites, pining for the splendid isolation of the 19th century, want to leave the world alone on the assumption that it will then leave us alone.

Which rests on the further assumption that international stability – open sea lanes, free commerce, relative tranquility – come naturally, like the air we breathe.

If only that were true. Unfortunately, stability is not a matter of grace. It comes about only by Great Power exertion.

In the 19th century, that meant the British navy, behind whose protection America thrived. Today, alas, Britannia rules no waves. World order is maintained by American power and American will. Take that away and you don’t get tranquility. You get chaos.

That’s the Christie/McCain position.

They figure that America doesn’t need two parties of retreat. Paul’s views, more measured and moderate than his fringy father’s, are still in the minority among conservatives, but gathering strength.

Which is why Christie’s stroke – defending and thus seizing the party’s more traditional internationalist consensus – was a signal moment in the run-up to the 2016 campaign. The battle lines are drawn. (b) Obamacare The other battle is about defunding Obamacare. Led by Sens. Mike Lee and Ted Cruz, the GOP insurgents are threatening to shut down the government on Oct. 1 if the stopgap funding bill contains money for Obamacare.

This is nuts. The president will never sign a bill defunding the singular achievement of his presidency. Especially when he has control of the Senate. Especially when, though a narrow majority (51 percent) of Americans disapprove of Obamacare, only 36 percent favor repeal.

President Obama so knows he’ll win any shutdown showdown that he’s practically goading the Republicans into trying.

Never make a threat on which you are not prepared to deliver. Every fiscal showdown has redounded against the Republicans. The first, in 1995, effectively marked the end of the Gingrich revolution. The latest, last December, led to a last-minute Republican cave that humiliated the GOP and did nothing to stop the tax hike it so strongly opposed.

Those who fancy themselves tea party patriots fighting a sold-out cocktailswilling establishment are demanding yet another cliff dive as a show of principle and manliness.

But there’s no principle at stake here. This is about tactics. If I thought this would work, I would support it.

But I don’t fancy suicide. It has a tendency to be fatal.

As for manliness, the real question here is sanity. Nothing could better revive the fortunes of a failing, flailing, fading Democratic administration than a government shutdown where the president is portrayed as standing up to the GOP on honoring our debts and paying our soldiers in the field.

How many times must we learn the lesson? You can’t govern from one house of Congress. You need to win back the Senate and then the presidency. Shutting down the government is the worst possible way to get there. Indeed, it’s Obama’s fondest hope for a Democratic revival.

Egypt is in turmoil again.

Syria is embroiled in civil war.

Iran continues building a nuclear device. Militants in Iraq have killed more than 4,000 people so far this year, more than 800 of them in July alone, according to the aptly named Iraq Body Count (www.iraqbodycount.org).

And what is Secretary of State John Kerry’s focus? It is the never-ending Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Again facing U.S. pressure, Israel has agreed to renewed peace talks. It rejected demands from the Palestinian side for withdrawal from “occupied” lands and the freezing of new “settlements” as preconditions, but Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu did agree to release 104 Palestinian prisoners, most of them convicted of murdering Israeli civilians in terrorist acts, “in stages” and “in accordance with the circumstances of their progress” in the peace negotiations.

Let me assume the role of an Old Testament prophet and declare: There will be no progress, because the Palestinian side will accept nothing less than the complete annihilation of Israel and the removal of every Jew from what they regard as their land.

Let’s put it in a way most people would understand. If you find a serial killer has broken into your home, would you negotiate with him, or would you defend yourself with your registered gun?

In announcing Israel’s participation in negotiations, Netanyahu issued “an open letter to Israeli citizens.” In it, he called those he would release from prison “depraved people.”

They are not likely to become less depraved after their release. Like most terrorists, there is a high probability they will rejoin the battle to obliterate Israel.

The prime minister also said: “In the next nine months, we will consider whether there is a Palestinian element opposite us that, like us, truly wants to end the conflict between us.” Save your breath. There isn’t, because the Palestinian definition of ending the conflict is simple: They win.

As for the promise that prisoners will be released should negotiations progress, let’s see how that has worked in the past.

Middle East expert Daniel Pipes has listed some of them: In 1985, Israel exchanged 1,150 prisoners for three captured Israelis. In 2000, Israel exchanged 450 Arab prisoners for three Israeli bodies and one live hostage. In 2008, five Arab prisoners, including, writes Pipes, “the psychopath Samir al-Kuntar” and 199 Arab bodies were swapped for two Israeli bodies. And in 2011, 1,027 Palestinian prisoners were given up for one man, Gilad Schalit.

In none of these exchanges was the so-called “peace process” advanced. The Palestinians, seemingly, get what they want by not conceding anything. Nor are they forced to live up to their promises and agreements. Israel does all the conceding and gets nothing in return, except more terror and new threats of war.

In 2010, a poll sponsored by The Israeli Project, a JewishAmerican organization, found most Palestinians refuse to accept the idea of Israel as a Jewish state and that while some accept the concept of two states, they regard it as a first step toward one state ruled by Palestinians.

In the face of so much evidence that the Israeli-Palestinian conflict will not be ended by more Israeli concessions and prisoner releases, why is Secretary of State Kerry continuing to pursue what hasn’t worked and can’t work, given the ideological and religious motivations of the Palestinian side?

Maybe it’s because this administration has no foreign policy and pressuring Israel is as close as it can get to one.

Meanwhile, the rest of the Middle East burns.

Last hurrah of the interventionists?

In what a Washington Post columnist describes as a rout of Rand Paul isolationism, the Senate just voted overwhelmingly to send another $1.5 billion in foreign aid to Egypt.

The House voted 400-20 to impose new sanctions on Iran’s oil exports, two days before Iran’s new president, elected on a pledge to re-engage the West on the nuclear issue, takes his oath.

Do these triumphs of AIPAC and the War Party, of neocons and liberal internationalists, tell us where we are going? Or are they the last hurrahs of the interventionists, as America’s long retreat proceeds apace.

If we take what Richard Nixon called “the long view,” the trend line seems unmistakable.

Under President Obama, America has pulled all U.S. forces out of Iraq and has scheduled a full withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2014.

Despite his “red line” in Syria having allegedly been crossed, and the cawing of Hill hawks like Sens. Lindsey Graham and John McCain, Obama seems the very portrait of a reluctant warrior in Syria.

A large majority of Americans, too, want no part of that civil war.

On Iran, the Pentagon seems to concur with Obama, in opposition to a new Mideast war. And as Congress votes new sanctions on Iran and new billions for an Egyptian army that just arrested its elected government, Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel is laying out scenarios for reducing the size, reach and power of the U.S. military.

“Without the controlling principle that the nation must maintain its objectives and its power in equilibrium, its purposes within its means, and its means equal to its purposes, its commitments related to its resources, and its resources adequate to its commitments, it is impossible to think at all about foreign affairs.” So wrote Walter Lippmann in 1943.

Pat Buchanan That is our situation today.

During World War II, we were united in defeating Germany and Japan. After the war, we became united on a new foreign policy – containment of communism and a Soviet Empire that had spread from the Elbe River to the Bering Sea. Through great sacrifices we ensured that our resources were adequate to our commitments.

Vietnam shattered the Cold War consensus.

Yet enough of it survived for Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush to lead the nation and the West to victory.

Bush I then set out to build his “New World Order.” He invaded Panama, drove Iraq out of Kuwait and put U.S. troops into Somalia. The country sent him packing.

After 9/11, Bush II invaded Afghanistan and Iraq and undertook to nation-build in both.

The country removed his party from power in both houses of Congress in 2006 and from the presidency in 2008.

George W. was going to “end tyranny in our world.” Enough said.

Obama began the long retreat of American power that proceeds today despite a bellicosity on Capitol Hill redolent of the Cold War. Today, as government at all levels consumes nearly 40 percent of gross domestic product, as the deficit is growing three times as fast as the GDP, as China continues to grow at four times the U.S. rate, we need to ask ourselves: What should we fight for?

Whom shall we defend? What can we afford in the way of national defense? What must we af-

ford?

Consider America’s alliances, almost all of which date to a Cold War no American under 25 can even remember.

NATO was formed in 1949 to protect Western Europe from a Soviet Bloc and a Soviet Union that disappeared a generation ago.

U.S. treaties with Japan and the Philippines date to the 1950s, when Chairman Mao was exporting communist revolution.

Should these treaties now require us to go to war with China to defend disputed islets and rocks in the East and South China Sea? Our treaty with South Korea dates to a war against the North that ended in a truce 60 years ago. South Korea today has twice the population of the North and 40 times the GDP. Must we still deploy a U.S. army on the Korean DMZ? In 1977 we undertook to give $5 billion in annual foreign aid to Israel and Egypt. After 35 years, how long should the United States, whose middle class has not seen a rise in real income since 1977, borrow from China to pay Egyptians and Israelis $5 billion a year not to fight each other?

Through a mindless adherence to policies that date to a long-dead past, America is forfeiting her future.

Through our abandonment of economic patriotism and embrace of globalism, we have run up $10 trillion in trade deficits since Reagan. We have fought two trillion-dollar wars in 12 years.

Every year we go into world financial markets to borrow tens of billions for the International Monetary Fund, World Bank and foreign aid to send to regimes that routinely vote against the U.S. in the United Nations.

Is Rand Paul really the one living in yesterday?

Rosita Gomez places a piece of hot steel into a bender during a hot forming process while working with Daran O’Malley, right, at the north plant of Haven Steel.

Haven ●From Page C1 Some of the characteristics the process may address include UV protection, fade resistance, paint adhesion and resistance to salt spray, Oxley said.

Conco Construction of Wichita is the general contractor for the buildings.

Different vendors will provide components for the paint line, including the paint booth, shot blast cleaning equipment, and curing equipment.

The goal is to get the building completed and powder coat equipment installed by the end of the year. “We plan to do our start-up and certification and testing for quality in the first quarter of 2014,” he said.

The company will eventually eliminate the old paint line and convert that space to other uses, though they’ve made no decisions on how to use the space, Oxley said. “It’s not a very large space,” he said.

The rest of the added space will allow Haven Steel to expand assembly processes it now offers.

“We’re hoping with the expansion to have enough space to have added inventory capacity, to inventory components that complement what we manufacture, so we can assemble what we make with other components and send products pre-assembled to our customers.”

The second project, which will follow completion of the first, will expand the plant’s second, smaller building, which houses its maintenance and tool and die departments. “In tool and die, we just have some space constraints,” Oxley said. “We’ve been adding additional equipment and just packing it into the same space. This time we’ll be adding some stuff, but mostly giving them room to breathe.”

Oxley declined to say how much the expansion will cost, but Marlon Cohn, company owner and president stated in a news re-

“In tool and die, we just have some space constraints.

We’ve been adding additional equipment and just packing it into the same space. This time we’ll be adding some stuff, but mostly giving them room to breathe.”

Tom Oxley, Haven Steel general manager lease “This is the largest capital endeavor in the history of the company.”

The plant, which employs about 140 people, will add at least eight new jobs with the expansion, officials previously said.

Haven Steel Products has been in the same location since its founding in 1969 in a 7,000-square-foot plant. The most recent expansion required the company acquire 3 acres next to its previous 6½-acre campus.

The company fabricates and heat-treats components primarily for the agricultural industry (tillage components), the construction industry (landscaping and mowing components) and the trailer industry (leaf springs), according to its website. Parts it makes range from less than 1 pound in weight to parts exceeding 85 pounds.

“For tillage, we make literally hundreds of different components,” Oxley said.

“Another part of our production is rotary cutter blades. We make over 900 different configurations of rotary cutter blades.”

Today its products are as diversified as patio furniture chair legs, railroad wear plates, seat springs, playground equipment components, loading dock bumpers, trash recycling chopper knives, grounds keeping aerator knives and trailer hitch weight equalizing springs.

The area where Haven Steel will be expanding is shown.

14 North has a stage overlooking the dining area for live musical performances.

14 North ●From Page C1 The restaurant’s chef is Tod Barlow.

“We’ll have some seafood on the menu and also seafood specials throughout the month,” Lizalde said.

“We’ll also have a 99-cent kid’s meal. We’re going to be family-friendly.”

Plans are to be open for lunch and dinner seven days a week, he said.

The 199-seat restaurant and full-service bar now boasts 15 flat-screen TVs, “so there’s never a bad seat,” Lizalde said. “We’ll have every NFL game on.”

The business retained the stage for live musical performers developed by the building’s previous owner, and 14 North will bring in artists on Saturday evenings once or twice a month, Lizalde said.

“We have a lot of entertainment lined up,” he said.

“It’s all from out of state.

We’ll have a country band in August, a Neil Diamond tribute band in September, dueling pianos and a funk band that, a month before they appear here in October, will be touring in Japan.

We’re really excited about our entertainment lineup.”

On nights with live entertainment, there will be a cover charge of $5 to $10, though the Neil Diamond tribute will be $12.

“We’re trying to keep it $10 and below because we want everyone to have the opportunity to come in and have a good time in Hutch.”

The facility required little remodeling to prepare it for a new restaurant, Lizalde said, although he did add a mural on an open wall.

“It was created by Chris Weitrick,” he said. “He did a good interpretation of what I wanted, to include music and sports and a good time.”

Lizalde said he wasn’t “100 percent sure” on employment levels for the new venue.

With a background in finance, Lizalde bought the entire building about a year ago, he said. He renamed it the 4M Building, after the names of himself, his wife and two children.

“I got tired of seeing it just sit there,” Lizalde said of the restaurant space. “I

I gave a lot of opportunities for people to try to do it, but nothing stuck, so I decided to take it on myself. … I know that Hutchinson needs a place that can have some live entertainment and it also needs a place where you can get a good quality steak.”

The restaurant will open

11 a.m. every day. Closing hours will vary, depending on when football games are scheduled and what time they end.

“Sunday and Monday, we’ll close after football is over,” Lizalde said. “Tuesday and Wednesday, we’ll close at 10 p.m. Thursday will be variable closing because of Thursday night football. On Friday and Sat-

urdays, we’ll close at 2 a.m.”

Besides the restaurant, the building houses the offices of Team Employment, I Do Over Weddings and a store under development that hasn’t been revealed.

“A man is getting ready to open a store, but he’s not ready to announce it,” Lizalde said. “The space is fully rented out.”

Playing ‘Rocky’ role

BY PAT SANGIMINO The Hutchinson News psangimino@hutchnews.com

WICHITA – It was fitting – and completely unintentional (or was it?) – that the theme from “Rocky” reverberated through the sound system at Lawrence-Dumont Stadium on Saturday as the Hutchinson Monarchs went through their pregame warm-ups.

Their 2-1 NBC World Series victory over the San Luis Obispo Blues – and the way it unfolded – a couple of hours later was every bit as unexpected as anything Hollywood could ever create.

This was a game in which the Monarchs figured to be overmatched.

In actuality, were it not for a couple of base-running gaffes by the Monarchs, the score might not have been close.

Deron McCue has been saying it all year. He likes these Monarchs.

He likes the way they play. He loves their scrappiness.

“We can play in this tournament,” he said. “I’ve been telling everyone I think we’re the best team in Kansas. We belong here.”

Maybe it’s time to start believing him.

NEW YORK – The Kansas City Royals are getting a healthy dose of National League baseball on their first trip to Citi Field.

While some of them are familiar with that style of play, they are a bit out of practice with it.

Royals manager Ned Yost found the perfect time to use pinch-hitter Jason Maxwell, and he responded with the tiebreaking homer in the 12th inning to lift Kansas City to a 4-3 victory over the New York Mets on Saturday.

Kansas City squandered a two-run lead in the eighth inning, but got back to a winning way just one day after its nine-game winning streak was broken.

“I got ready like three different times,” the newly acquired Maxwell said of his fifth major league pinchhomer and first of any kind

My first home run was a pinchhit grand slam, and I hit three pinch-hit home runs last year.”

Maxwell homered deep into the left-field seats leading off the 12th for the Royals, who improved to 8-2 in extra innings after losing in the 11th on Friday.

Maxwell hit a 3-2 pitch from David Aardsma, who had fallen behind 3-0. The New York bullpen had been perfect after starter Jeremy Hefner left after six innings, but Aardsma couldn’t retire the first batter he faced.

Adjusting to August without coaching Ordinarily, this is the time of year Mike Self might be tending to the equipment – getting ready for the start of another football season.

This week, he was busy, all right – buying a piano.

Call it a fatherly obligation.

There’s suddenly time for such chores, much to the joy of an aspiring young musician in the house. There’s suddenly far more to life than football.

The turn of the calendar to August sets in motion that countdown to the first practice and sends the clock spiraling toward that first game.

Get ready. That insatiable hunger for high school football – really, football of any kind – will soon take over our consciousness.

CANTON, Ohio – Forcefully and emotionally, Cris Carter summed up the 50th induction ceremony for the Pro Football Hall of Fame on Saturday night.

The seventh and final inductee from the Class of 2013, Carter honored dozens of people in his life who were “going into the Hall of Fame with me tonight,” as he followed Jonathan Ogden, Dave Robinson, Larry Allen, Bill Parcells, Curley Culp and Warren Sapp in being inducted.

More than 120 hall members, a record,

returned for the 50th anniversary celebration of the shrine.

“I appreciate the process you have to go through to get to be a Hall of Famer,” said Carter, who had perhaps the best hands of any receiver the NFL has seen.

“To be able to join these men on this stage in football heaven is the greatest day of my life.”

Carter needed six tries to make the hall even though he retired as the No. 2 career receiver behind Jerry Rice. He choked back tears as he made his speech after being presented by his son, Duron, and he spoke of his problems with alcohol while playing three years for the Eagles before being released.

Running back will try to fill big shoes again ■ Blue Dragon has done

it before, including those of players headed for NFL.

BY BRAD HALLIER The Hutchinson News bhallier@hutchnews.com

Orange Mooney knows the kind of lineage he’s following this season for the Hutchinson Community College football team.

A Phoenix native who graduated from Olathe North, Mooney is in line to be one of another in a lineof outstanding Blue Dragon instate running backs.

There was Deveon Dinwiddie (Hutchinson) in 2011, Derek Campbell (Manhattan) from 2010-11 and record-setting Terrell Lane (Norton) the last two seasons.

The Blue Dragons opened the 2013 season with a Saturday morning practice at Gowans Stadium, and while

there are plenty of good running backs available, Mooney is the only returning running back from a Hutch team that finished 9-3 last season.

“T-Lane was such a good running back, so there are some big shoes to fill,” Mooney said. “He set the standard for what comes next. My goal coming into camp is to do better than he and the other backs before have done.”

Mooney has been in this kind of situation before. At Olathe North, running backs are often compared to Darren Sproles, who now plays for the New Orleans Saints, and Maurice Mack.

“Olathe North has some big-name running backs, too,” Mooney said. “Those were some big shoes to fill also, with Maurice Mack and Darren Sproles, so this is what I’m used to.”

Buhler senior makes cut in Florida tournament

BY THE NEWS STAFF

Buhler senior Taryn Torgerson made the cut at the Optimist International junior championship tournament in Florida.

Torgerson shot a 76 on Saturday to ensure she would be in TORGERSON Sunday’s final round in West Palm Beach. The top 40 players in the national field make the cut. She had a 79 in her first

Monarchs ● From Page D1 It’s not always aesthetically pleasing, but most times it is effective – against just about any opponent.

“The Yankees have the best players every year, but they don’t win every game,” Acevedo said.

In other words, that’s why they play the games.

Jake Jewell faced just two jams in the contest. He wiggled out of a third-inning base-loaded predicament unscathed and nearly got a double-play grounder to escape the fifth inning unmarked.

Of the 15 outs he recorded, 11 were on infield grounders. That’s his forte.

Just one out came on a fly ball and it was a harmless popout to end the fifth inning.

And as good as he and Acevedo were, they entered the game relegated to second chair because Blues pitcher Corey Ray is a big, hard-throwing right-hander from Texas A&M. Ray allowed just five hits in seven innings. He retired the first nine he faced, including five by strikeout, but

round and an 81 in Friday’s second round.

“I have played pretty well this week,” she said by phone. “I felt like everything came together for the first time in a while.”

After placing at the Big I in Topeka last month, Torgerson struggled in Dubuque, Iowa, the following week – something that prompted her to get back onto the driving range and putting green for the next couple of weeks.

“It was just getting back to basics and working on my game,” she said.

Her three-day total of 236 places her tied for 36th place. Coralia Arias leads the tournament with a three-day total of 216. She has a four-stroke lead over two other golfers.

The goal for Sunday is to put together another solid round and climb the leader board as much as possible.

“Winning is far fetched at this point,” she said. “Want to come in and play as good as I can, get some experience and have fun. I am doing all of that. Making it into the top 20 would be an accomplishment.”

the Monarchs figured some things out the second time at the plate.

Zenon Kolakowski led off the fourth inning with an infield base hit up the middle.

Zack Kolakowski followed with a hit-and-run single to right, moving his older brother to third base.

Quentin Crandall then singled past the bag at third base to plate Zenon with the game’s first run.

Hutch seemed poised to put up a crooked number in the inning. But an infield popup and a Schultz doubleplay grounder allowed Ray to get out of the inning without any further damage.

San Luis Obispo tied the game in the fifth against Jewell. An infield single by Andrew Lee on a high chopper behind the mound put him on first. He moved to second on a wild pitch and got to third on a grounder to the right side.

After a walk to leadoff hitter Will Maddox put runners on first and third, Zack Dominguez hit a grounder up the middle with Maddox stealing. Shortstop Zackary Leighton fielded the ball near the base and barely beat Maddox to second, but his throw was off line after a hard slide by the base run-

ner, which allowed Lee to score the Blues’ lone run.

Hutch got two runners on to start the fifth, but Josh Kunzmann, who led off with a base hit to right, was picked off second base. That proved to be big when Sam Crabtree followed with a single to right, which would have easily scored Kunzmann.

Crandall began the gamewinning rally in the sixth by getting plunked with one out. He stole second base. After Brendan Miller walked, Schultz grounded one into the hole between short and third.

The catcher hustled down the line and barely beat the throw from second base to first to avoid the double play, which allowed Crandall to score.

Acevedo struck out five in four innings of work. His lone faux pas was a one-out walk in the ninth inning that allowed the potential tying run on base. However, Schultz took care of that, too, by gunning down Cody Jones at second base on a steal attempt.

Mooney ● From Page D1 Mooney, who stands 5-foot10 and weighs about 200 pounds, was Lane’s backup last season. While Lane rushed for a school-record 1,630 yards, including a single-game mark of 308 yards at Garden City, Mooney put up respectable numbers – 444 yards and two touchdowns while averaging 5.6 yards a carry. He also caught eight passes for 78 yards.

Mooney missed three games with a split eyelid, but he said he’s suffered no longterm effects from the gruesome injury.

“He’s very capable,” HCC coach Rion Rhoades said. “I think we’ve known he’s a good player. Last year, we worked hard to get him some touches, but with the people we had, there were not enough footballs to go around.”

Mooney won’t be the only option at running back this year. Rhoades said Wichita Southeast product Bradan Smith has looked sharp, as

Mooney said he wasn’t just trying to get a starting spot in the next three weeks.

Mooney said with the amount of talent he sees, making sure the talent meshes before the season opener Aug. 24 at Coffeyville was as important as becoming the

starting running back.

“We have to get everyone on the same page,” Mooney said. “We had a good team last year, but we weren’t always together. We have to make sure this team is more family-oriented and not a bunch of individuals. That’s what we’re working on coming into camp.”

Greats ● From Page D1 He hooked on immediately with the Vikings and hooked onto nearly everything throw his way: Carter finished his 16-season career with 1,101 catches for 13,899 yards and 130 touchdowns.

Parcells also seemingly spoke for everyone in the Hall of Fame, and all the people gathered Saturday night.

“There’s a kinship created that lasts for the rest of your life,” he said about his experience as one of the NFL’s most successful coaches.

Parcells had several of his proteges in the crowd at Fawcett Stadium. The only coach to take four franchises to the playoffs, Parcells won Super Bowls with the New York Giants in the 1986 and 1990 seasons. The master of the team turnaround with the Giants, Patriots, Jets and Cowboys, Parcells was called “the definitive winner” by former player George Martin, who presented him for induction.

Parcells’ career record was 183-138-1 and he won Coach of the Year honors in 1986 and 1994. He asked to have his bust placed somewhere near Lawrence Taylor in the

SPORTS hall “so I can keep an eye on that sucker.”

As relaxed as if he had no one to block, Ogden became the first Baltimore Raven enshrined in the hall. Ogden was the leadoff inductee in his seven-member class, just as he was the first player drafted by the Ravens after the franchise moved from Cleveland in 1996 and was renamed. The man who made that selection, fellow Hall of Famer Ozzie Newsome, now Baltimore’s general manager, presented the massive offensive tackle.

A former college shot putter at UCLA, at 6-foot-9, 345 pounds, Ogden was an imposing presence at tackle for a dozen seasons in Baltimore, winning the 2000 NFL championship. Six months after the Ravens won their second Super Bowl, Ogden gave a smooth, humor-laden speech, always in control – just like he was when neutralizing even the best opponents.

Ogden, who was given a 2013 Super Bowl ring by the team, made the hall in his first year of eligibility. He was a six-time All-Pro, made the Pro Bowl 11 times and was the main blocker when Jamal Lewis rushed for 2,066 yards in 2003.

is hard to walk away from.

“You put the time in. It’s a labor of love. You kind of lose yourself in it …”

And then it is gone.

He’s not the only person ever to experience this. The day of the career coach – someone who comes in right out of college and spends the next 40 or 50 years building something special – might be a bygone era.

The politics of the job and the pressure to assuage the masses while winning games – don’t forget that component – has driven many talented young coaches to the bleachers.

You get the feeling Self could have coached as long as he wished. The community is loyal to its coaches and the administration is as supportive as they come. But few things always operate on our desired schedule.

The athletic director posi-

Allen, who sniffled his way through his speech, was just as dominating a blocker as Ogden.

One of the key blockers for Dallas as Emmitt Smith became the NFL’s career rushing leader, Allen made six All-Pro squads and 11 Pro Bowls in his 14 seasons, the final two with San Francisco.

He won the Super Bowl in the 1995 season and was voted into the Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility, Presented by Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, who drafted Allen out of smallcollege Sonoma State in 1994, Allen punctuated his discourse with the requisite “How about them Cowboys?” as he joined the likes of Smith, Troy Aikman, Michael Irvin and Deion Sanders in the hall.

Sapp became only the second Tampa Bay Buccaneer to be enshrined, 18 years after Lee Roy Selmon made it. He was elected in his first year of eligibility following 13 seasons in which he went from instant starter after being selected 12th overall in the 1995 draft to Defensive Player of the Year in 1999. That season, he had 12 1/2 sacks as the Bucs won their first division title in 18 years. For his career, Sapp had 96 1/2 sacks,

tion opened up last spring, and after thinking painstakingly about it, Self opted to take the plunge.

Marty Nienstedt knows what Self is feeling these days. He knows the aches and pangs of a coming season he won’t be directly involved with and the out-of-control discomfort that comes with learning the new responsibilities and duties of his new job.

Nienstedt made the same move at Haven a few years back and then took it a step farther two years ago when he became the school’s principal.

There’s a learning curve that comes with each new job. Sports success is often measured by the speed of the game. When things begin to slow down for an athlete – when he or she gets acclimated to the pace – is usually followed by success.

extremely high for a defensive tackle.

Presented Saturday night by his 15-year-old daughter, Mercedes, Sapp made the NFL’s All-Decade squads for the 1990s and the 2000s.

Robinson became the 12th inductee from the vintage Packers coached by Vince Lombardi to be enshrined.

Robinson was a prototype outside linebacker who could rush the quarterback, cover tight ends or running backs on pass plays, and stop the run. He made the NFL’s AllDecade team of the 1960s and won three NFL titles, including the first two Super Bowls.

Culp was one of the most dominant defensive tackles for much of his 14 pro seasons, including the 1969 season when he helped Kansas City win the NFL title.

A five-time Pro Bowler, Culp also played for Houston and Detroit, retiring in 1981, then waiting more than three decades to be enshrined Saturday as a senior nominee.

“It gives me joy and inspiration that will last the rest of my life,” Culp said. “I am just overwhelmed by the struggles, joys and tears of those who made it here. I’m happy to join them in the Hall of Fame.

“Things haven’t slowed down for him in his new job,” Nienstedt said. “He’s still learning everything he has to do.”

Meanwhile, the things that he had somewhat mastered – the on-the-field coaching of young men – have been passed off to new coach Scott L’Ecuyer, who inherits a team that learned how to win last season.

The Wildcats won five games last year. That’s hohum around here, where the bar has been raised by a Hutchinson High program that has seven state crowns in the last nine years.

But success is relative. Five wins last year represented just one fewer than the entire program had put together since 2004 – in 63 games.

“It was a goal to leave it better than the way I found it,” Self said. “The players, especially last year’s crop of

seniors, did a tremendous job of laying the foundation that has been built. They’ve changed the expectations around here.”

That’s where this story gets bittersweet.

Self did the heavy lifting.

He has helped to lay the foundation. And now someone else is taking the reins.

Nienstedt compared it to a child moving out of the house. You’ve put in all that time to teach right from wrong and now that young adult is ready for life.

“They are going to make their own decisions now,” he said. “They are grown up and ready for it. That’s what it’s like with coaching. Mike did some great things, but the baby is now grown up.”

Any parent can relate to this analogy. There’s pride that comes with a child becoming an independent contributing member of society,

but there’s also sorrow – the revelation that you’re no longer as necessary as you once were.

“I’ll still be there,” Self said. “It’ll be hard sometimes, but I will keep myself busy doing other things.”

Eventually, those feelings subside – with parents and coaches. It might not be nearly as much fun watching from the bleachers.

Self still has a stake in all of this, but he won’t be nearly as immersed as he once was. The wins won’t be nearly as sweet, but the losses won’t be nearly as difficult to stomach. And that does bring with it a pretty nifty silver lining.

“There aren’t nearly as many sleepless nights,” Nienstedt said.

People gather in the Predator exhibit at the Outdoor Retailer Summer Market on Wednesday in Salt Lake City. The world’s largest trade show for outdoor gear was back in Salt Lake City for a four-day run. More than 1,300 manufacturers and suppliers packed every square inch of the floor of the Salt Palace convention hall, plus three outdoor tents.

Annual Utah outdoor show features lighter gear

People walk pass the Sierra Design Backcountry Bed, Mobile Mummy and Backcountry Quilt display at the Outdoor Retailer Summer Market on Wednesday in Salt Lake City.

Organizers expected more than 25,000 people to attend, mostly retailers, who are placing orders for inventory.

Associated Press

SALT LAKE CITY – It’s a showcase of technology for everything from socks that can take a beating to water bottles equipped with battery-powered ultraviolet purifiers.

At the world’s largest trade show for outdoor gear, one trend this year is lighter or more powerful equipment. The makers of a pint-sized hydrogen battery say it can give a cellphone five complete charges before it needs a recharge itself. Others are showcasing solar cells that roll up for easy packing.

Also on display was a $2,000 kayak from Wenonah Canoe that weighs only 32 pounds. “The hard part about making it light is making it strong,” said Michael Looman of the Winona, Minn.based company.

The Outdoor Retailer Summer Market opened for a four-day run Wednesday. More than 1,300 manufacturers and suppliers are packing the floor of a Salt Lake City convention hall, plus three outdoor canopy tents. The summer and winter trade shows have been a mainstay in Utah since 1996, drawing consistently larger crowds, although attendance leveled off this year.

More than 25,000 people are expected at the trade show this week, many of them retailers, who are placing bulk orders for specialty outdoor shops around the world. Exhibitors were unpacking crates Tuesday, displaying a merchandise bazaar that would make a consumer drool – except the public isn’t allowed inside.

“This show has morphed into a mecca for the outdoor actionsports world,” says Peter Kray,

publisher of the Gear Institute of Santa Fe, N.M., a network of outdoor gear testers and experts who try out and promote the best gear.

A number of magazines and websites, including gearjunkie.com, also rate the gear and fashions to come out of the Salt Lake show before the new products hit the mainstream.

Kray’s picks include Smith Chroma Pop lenses – “awesome color” – and an improvement on Easton tent poles that nearly doubles their strength and flexibility in heavy winds.

Kray also is celebrating a hydration bladder not for water, but whisky or tequila – “perfect,” he says.

Even socks have come a long way, with more than 100 companies in a foot race to stich the finest wool blends. A pair can cost $25, but makers say they last practically a lifetime. Cabot Hosiery Mills Inc. says its Darn Tough Vermont socks can withstand 30,000 machine rubs before wearing thin.

The trade show brought out a dozen sock makers. At an exhibit for SmartWool, product manager Robert Thomas showed off his most expensive socks, $27 a pair.

“These will outlast your hiking shoes,” he said.

The jam-packed expo underscores a thriving corner of the economy. Outdoor-gear sales have grown at 5 percent or more annually through recent years of recession, analysts said.

“The industry is doing well.

Patagonia has weathered the storm,” said Tania Bjornlie, a trade-show manager for the Ventura, Calif.-based industry giant long known for its sleek outdoor clothing.

Patagonia is showing off a new line of day packs. “Everything at the show is getting more technical, lighter, faster,” Bjornlie said.

Utah has become a cottage industry for innovators and established brands including Petzl, best known for its headlamps and climbing gear. Petzl says business is growing steadily: It’s opening a new factory in a Salt Lake City

suburb.

Outdoor sports “is a passion for a lot of people,” said John Evans, a Petzl marketing director. “Even if the economy is not running at full steam, people still pursue their passions.”

A hydrogen battery pack the size of a deck of cards can be found at an exhibit for Brunton, a subsidiary of Stockholm-based Fenix Outdoor AB., which specializes in navigation, optics and now, “portable power.”

At $150, Brunton’s hydrogen battery pack can be recharged at retail shops for $8 a pop. Brunton says the battery takes hydrogen out of water and mixes ambient oxygen when it’s time to charge a cellphone or other electronic device.

“It’s the lightest, toughest, most portable hydrogen reactor,” said Walter Kaihatu, vice president for sales and marketing at Boulder, Colo.-based Brunton. “It has really high capacity. It can charge a cellphone five times from dead, and works in a range of temperatures.”

WICHITA – Attendance is expected to double when the Midwest Hunt Fest returns to Century II, 225 W. Douglas Ave., for its second year to showcase the sport of hunting and fishing Friday through Sunday.

The expo is expected to have more than 100 exhibitors, with hundreds of hunting, fishing and outdoor related products on display and for sale. The event also features informative seminars by industry experts, appearances from hunting celebrities, hands-on activities, plus attendees will have chances to take home giveaways and door prizes valued over $20,000.

This year’s event is designed as a great outing for the entire family with new, added family-friendly attractions. One new feature this year includes an interactive laser hunt simulator, courtesy of Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism.

Top celebrities scheduled to appear at Midwest Hunt Fest 2013 are Chipper Jones, Atlanta Braves All-Star third baseman; Jeff Danker and Matt Duff, of the Sportsman Channel’s Major League Bowhunter; world-champion turkey caller Michael Waddell; Edwin Waddell and Travis “T-Bone” Turner, of Outdoor Channel’s Bone Collector; Tom and Jacque McMillan, Meet the McMillans; Buddy Groom, Daniel McVay and Brandon Adams, Buck Ventures; Nate Hosie, HeadHunters; Chuck Devereaux, Mudcats; and Bo and Twolla Newsom, OkieWild Television.

“This year’s event does truly reach out to all family members, in addition to sportsmen, with fun-filled attractions for the kids and vendors that specifically cater to ladies,” said event organizer Jennifer Nielsen. “Attendees are sure to enjoy a show chalked full of surprises and exhibits ranging from mounted exotic and domestic animals to a 40-foot long, 5,000-gallon aquarium. There are 3D shoot contests and we are also proud to host the only sanctioned turkey calling contest in Kansas.”

Show dates and hours are: noon to 9 p.m. Friday; 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Saturday; and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday.

Friday is “Kid’s Night” and the first 100 children 12 and younger will receive a free quail call.

Children 7 and younger are free with a paid adult admission. Youth 8 to 12 cost $5; adult are $10; military and senior admission is $9.

The Midwest Hunt Fest 2013 is sponsored by Rusty Eck Ford, McMillan Outfitting, Buck Nuggets High Protein Deer Feed and Attractants and Whitetail Properties.

Yellowstone’s Steamboat geyser sees rare eruption

Nebraska squirrel hunting season opens

BY MATTHEW BROWN

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Associated Press

BILLINGS, Mont. – Old Faithful it’s not.

Yellowstone National Park’s Steamboat geyser – the world’s tallest – has erupted for the first time in more than eight years.

The nine-minute blast sent steaming hot water an estimated 200 to 300 feet in the air, park geologist Hank Heasler said Thursday.

Unlike the park’s popular and famous Old Faithful geyser, which spews water like clockwork every hour-and-a-half, no one knows when Steamboat will erupt next.

In the past, it’s gone as long as 50 years without a major event. In 1964, it erupted a record 29 times. The last blast came in 2005.

Steamboat is one of more than 500 geysers at Yellowstone, which boasts the largest collection of hydrothermal features in the world.

The geyser is in a popular viewing area known as the Norris Geyser

Basin, and its eruption at about 7:30 p.m. Wednesday drew dozens of excited onlookers, said Robb Long, a freelance photographer from Sioux Falls, S.D., who was visiting the park with his fiancee and her family.

“It was an amazing experience.

This thing sounded like a locomotive,” Long said. “Everybody was frantic, taking pictures. People were running down there trying to get to it before it went away, and park rangers were running around trying to gather up people so they didn’t get too close.”

Yellowstone’s geysers are fueled by cold water that feeds into a natural underground plumbing network, where heat from the park’s volcano forces chemical-laden water to the surface and causes the periodic eruptions, Heasler said.

Early accounts of Steamboat’s eruptions came from first-hand observations, with the first recorded in 1878. Since 2005, the park has used electronic monitors to more closely track the geyser.

Steamboat Geyser, in Yellowstone National Park’s Norris Geyser Basin in Wyoming, erupts on Wednesday.

Steamboat Geyser — the world’s tallest — has erupted for the first time in more than eight years.

Park geologist Hank Heasler says Wednesday night’s nine-minute blast sent steaming hot water an estimated 200 to 300 feet in the air.

LINCOLN, Neb. – Today’s squirrel hunters become tomorrow’s eight-point buck hunters.

Nebraska’s squirrel hunting season began Thursday.

Game officials view the season as a chance to introduce novice hunters to the sport.

Mike Streeter is hunter education coordinator with the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission. He says taking a new hunter along on a squirrel hunt in the woods can serve as an introduction to an activity that can be enjoyed for a lifetime.

Streeter has several suggestions for a safe hunt, including using insect repellent with DEET, drinking plenty of water and calling out and identifying yourself if you see another hunter stalking the woods.

1963 – New York’s Mickey Mantle, batting for the first time in two months after breaking his left foot, hit a pinch home run

as the Yankees beat the Baltimore Orioles 11-10 for a split of a doubleheader.

1989 – Dave Stieb of the Toronto Blue Jays, who lost consecutive no-hit bids with two outs in the ninth inning last September, came within one out of a perfect game before settling for a twohit 2-1 victory over the New York Yankees.

Roberto Kelly’s double spoiled Stieb’s bid.

2006 – Chase Utley went 0-for-5 in Philadelphia’s 5-3 victory over the New York Mets, ending a 35-game hitting streak that tied him for the

10th longest in major league history and the fourth longest in National League history.

2010 – Alex Rodriguez hit his 600th home run and became the youngest player to attain the milestone.

NATIONAL LEAGUE

Uggla’s RBI grounder lifts Braves past Phils THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PHILADELPHIA – Dan Uggla had a tiebreaking RBI grounder in the 12th, the Atlanta bullpen pitched 5 2-3 scoreless innings and the Braves beat the slumping Philadelphia Phillies 5-4 on Saturday night for their ninth straight win.

Luis Avilan (4-0) pitched a scoreless 11th inning to earn the win and Craig Kimbrel got the last three outs for his 33rd save as the Braves won for the 11th time in 13 games.

Phillies left-hander Jake Diekman (0-2) pitched a perfect 11th but ran into trouble in the 12th. Justin Upton walked leading off and went to second on Freddie Freeman’s groundout.

Walks to Evan Gattis and Paul Janish loaded the bases.

After right-hander Justin De Fratus came on, Uggla hit a bounding ball to short that looked like it could be a double play, but Uggla was safe when Chase Utley’s relay pulled an extended Kevin Frandsen off the bag at first.

Pirates 5, Rockies 2 – Francisco Liriano continued his recent dominance with seven strong innings, and Jose Tabata homered and drove in two runs to lead Pittsburgh over Colorado.

Liriano (12-4) allowed only two hits to offset his five walks and had six strikeouts. The left-hander improved to 7-1 with a 1.65 ERA in his last eight starts for the NL Central leaders.

Tabata hit his first home run since May 11 – a span of 112 plate appearances – and also tripled while going 3 for 4.

Gaby Sanchez had two hits and two RBIs for Pittsburgh, while Jordy Mercer and Andrew McCutchen added two hits each.

Jorge De La Rosa (10-6) pitched fourplus innings and gave up three runs

on six hits while striking out three and walking two.

Reds 8, Cardinals 3 – Devin Mesoraco drove in three runs with a pair of homers, and Cincinnati finally broke out against a St. Louis team that has held them down all season.

The Reds won for only the fourth time in 11 games between the NL Central rivals. Cincinnati had scored fewer than four runs in each of their last nine games head-to-head.

Left-handed Tony Cingrani (5-1) and four relievers contained an offense that had scored 26 runs in the last two games, allowing four hits.

Jake Westbrook (7-6) gave up five runs – all with two outs – in five innings. Jack Hannahan singled with the bases loaded in the first inning.

Mesoraco’s homer in the fourth made it 4-1.

Nationals 3, Brewers 0 – Dan Haren pitched seven strong innings and Adam LaRoche and Wilson Ramos hit home runs to lead Washington over Milwaukee.

Heron gave up just four hits, with six strikeouts and two walks.

It was the second straight strong outing for Haren (6-11) as he allowed one run and three hits in seven innings of a 4-1 win over the New York Mets on July 27. Prior to that, Heron had not won a game in more than two months as the Nationals had lost his previous 11 starts. Haren went 0-8 with a 6.18 ERA in that stretch.

Tyler Clippard pitched a scoreless eighth inning. Rafael Soriano pitched the ninth inning to earn his 28th save in 32 chances.

Donovan Hand (0-3), making his sixth start of the season, gave up three runs on five hits for the Brewers.

Other scores: Dodgers 3, Cubs 0; Indians 4, Marlins 3; Yankees 3, Padres 0.

AMERICAN LEAGUE

Scherzer a sure thing as he picks up win No. 16 THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DETROIT – Max Scherzer took a shutout into the eighth inning before being pulled, and the Detroit righthander became baseball’s first 16game winner when the Tigers held on for a 3-0 victory over the punchless Chicago White Sox on Saturday night.

The White Sox have lost nine straight. The Tigers have won 11 of 12, despite playing most of that stretch without slugger Miguel Cabrera.

Cabrera has been bothered by hip and abdominal problems and sat out Saturday.

Scherzer (16-1) allowed three hits in 7 2-3 innings. Jose Veras got the third out of the eighth, and Joaquin Benoit finished for his 12th save in 12 chances.

John Danks (2-9) allowed six hits in seven innings, including solo homers

by Torii Hunter, Jhonny Peralta and Jose Iglesias.

Athletics 4, Rangers 2 – Yoenis Cespedes hit a two-run home run to help Oakland end Texas’ five-game winning streak.

Matt Garza (7-2) lost for the first time since June 11 and the Rangers lost ground on the AL West Division leading A’s for the first time in nearly a week, falling 3 1-2 games back.

Jed Lowrie and Eric Sogard also drove in runs for the A’s, who ended a three-game losing streak. Brandon Moss and Coco Crisp each added two hits.

Jarrod Parker (7-6) gave up two runs on six hits over six innings. He walked two and struck out six. He ended a streak of six straight no decisions and is 5-0 over his last 12 starts.

Garza gave up four runs on eight hits over eight innings. He walked one

and struck out five.

Mariners 8, Orioles 4 – Michael Saunders homered twice and drove in five runs, Erasmo Ramirez retired 18 of the first 20 batters he faced and Seattle beat Baltimore to end a fourgame losing streak.

Saunders hit a three-run drive in the fifth and added a clinching tworun shot in the ninth. It was his fifth career two-homer game, the second this season.

Justin Smoak homered and went 3 for 3 with two walks for the Mariners, who had lost 10 of their previous 12 games against Baltimore. Brad Miller had three hits and Kendrys Morales singled twice in his fifth straight multihit game.

Ramirez (3-0) gave up four runs and four hits in six-plus innings to win his third straight start. The right-hander struck out six and walked none.

Red Sox 5, Diamondbacks 2 – Jake Peavy allowed four hits in sevenplus innings, winning his first start since coming to Boston at the trade deadline.

Peavy (8-5) struck out seven and walked two, giving up Paul Goldschmidt’s homer in the fourth and leaving with a 3-1 lead after a leadoff single in the eighth. He walked slowly from the mound as the crowd rose to a standing ovation, tipping his cap to the fans while crossing the first-base line on his way to the dugout.

Shane Victorino and Jarrod Saltalamacchia homered for Boston. Koji Uehara pitched the ninth for his 10th save.

Patrick Corbin (12-3) allowed three runs on eight hits in six-plus innings for his second consecutive loss.

Other scores: Rays 2, Giants 1, 10 innings; Twins 6, Astros 4.

SPORTS

Relaxed Reid making a mark on the Chiefs

BY DAVE SKRETTA AP Sports Writer

ST. JOSEPH, Mo. – Andy Reid seemingly scoffs at the notion that he feels rejuvenated these days. What is that supposed to mean, anyway? He was only out of work for about 10 minutes.

Hardly enough time to get rejuvenated.

Yet here he is, in the midst of his first training camp with a different franchise in 15 years, barking commands at the Kansas City Chiefs as they huff and puff on the steamy practice fields of Missouri Western State University, looking more like the eager young coach he was during his early years in Philadelphia and less like the weary man he became in his final days there.

Reid may be unwilling to wax poetic about fresh starts and clean slates and all those other clichés, preferring instead to speak in platitudes about his new job in Kansas City. But those who surround him see a profound change in their longtime friend.

“I see Andy, the coach I used to know,” said John Dorsey, who has known Reid for nearly two decades, since they were young upand-comers with the Green Bay Packers.

Dorsey now works alongside Reid as the Chiefs’ new general manager.

“I sincerely mean this: He’s having more fun,” Dorsey said. “He’s over here doing receivers, he’s over here with tight ends, he’s working with the tackles, he’s jumping the quarterback, but that’s good. He sees everything. That’s coaching, and that’s a good thing.”

Without intending to do so, Dorsey may have put his finger on the biggest reason why things suddenly soured for Reid after more than a decade of success in Philadelphia.

He got away from simply coaching.

While he always had front-office officials to help him out, Reid was given the gargantuan task of not only coaching the Eagles but also building them. He was an ad-hoc general manager, putting in long hours on the practice field only to return to his office and start running tape of college prospects, free agents and whoever else made it through the gates of his inner sanctum.

Little surprise that he grew weary the last couple of years. The same coach who once strung together five straight seasons of at least 11 wins with the Eagles could only muster a 412 finish last year, everything finally collapsing in a disorganized mess.

Like a marriage that’s lasted too long, the Eagles and Reid agreed to part ways.

Within a matter of hours, or maybe even minutes, Chiefs owner Clark Hunt had reached Reid by telephone. If he was interested in getting right back into coaching, one of the

Orlin Wagner/Associated Press

Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid, back, watches as players run a drill July 26 during the team’s training camp in St. Joseph, Mo. league’s storied franchises had an opening. The only caveat, Hunt wanted to make sure Reid still had the passion to succeed after onfield disappointments and heartbreaking personal strife – his oldest son, Garrett, died a year ago Monday after a long battle with drug addiction.

“We went into the interview with that as one of the big questions, whether he still had the same energy,” Hunt said. “He came into the interview with more intensity than I anticipated.”

That hasn’t changed since the moment Reid was hired.

Reid offered his suggestions as Dorsey reworked the roster, and when the offseason program rolled around, the old offensive line coach seemed to be everywhere at once.

One minute he’d be in the ear of Alex Smith, the quarterback on whose right arm so much of the Chiefs’ season rests. The next minute, Reid would be shouting at rookie linebacker Nico Johnson or wide receiver Jon Baldwin or anybody else who happened to be a bit out of position.

“I think the thing that has just jumped out at me is not just Coach Reid, but the entire staff, just a passion for the game, a passion for coaching and teaching,” Smith said. “It starts with him, for sure. He’s really setting the tempo.”

There is very little of the Chiefs that resemble what they put on the field last season. The personnel, and for the most part, the coaching staff, are different. But the biggest change may be in the feeling that surrounds the team. Things are run more professionally, jerseys always tucked in and the lowliest members of the staff wearing team-issued apparel.

Much of that has been dictated by Reid, whose attention to detail is uncanny.

“I’ve said this many times and I really believe it, there’s a reason you win,” said Reid’s close friend Dick Vermeil, the former Eagles and Chiefs coach. “Andy knows all the reasons.”

Good thing for the Chiefs.

They haven’t won much lately.

The franchise has had just one winning season since 2006, and hasn’t won a playoff game in two decades. Last season, the

team not only went 2-14 but weathered fan discontent unlike anything the Chiefs have known. The team suffered through a murdersuicide that involved teammate Jovan Belcher shooting his girlfriend and taking his own life in the training facility parking lot.

As much as Reid needed a reboot, so did the Chiefs.

It’s not as if everything that Reid has done since arriving in Kansas City has been flawless, of course.

When it came to light that his favorite barbecue joint was the upscale Fiorella’s Jack Stack Barbecue, some fans began howling. In the self-proclaimed BBQ-capital of the world, they asked incredulously, how could he settle on just one?

It was a minor transgression in the grand scheme of things. Reid has taken over the reins of a franchise that’s barely experienced stability in the last decade, where coaches such as Vermeil and Marty Schottenheimer are revered simply because they took the Chiefs to the playoffs. So if Reid can somehow usher them to the Super Bowl, well, far more serious missteps would be forgiven.

Expectations are so high that even before Reid was introduced as Romeo Crennel’s replacement, news helicopters were tracking the movement of his black SUV as he headed for a tour of Arrowhead Stadium. He was engulfed by fans when he was spotted on the famed Country Club Plaza during the offseason. And now that he’s in training camp, just as many people are pining for his autograph as they are for Pro Bowl players Jamaal Charles and Dwayne Bowe.

It might be overwhelming if Reid wasn’t having so much fun, laughing with fellow coaches and players after practice. It might be overwhelming if he was just starting out in the business, a wide-eyed assistant coach at BYU or Northern Arizona with his entire career ahead of him.

Indeed, it might be overwhelming if he wasn’t so relaxed these days.

“Look,” Reid said, “I love every day that I have an opportunity to coach in the National Football League.

There’s 32 of us in the whole world, man. It’s an honor and a privilege.

“Do I feel rejuvenated? I feel very fortunate to be able to do this.”
