Celebrating generations

FIRST-GRADER MAURA LANGLAND FLASHES A BIG SMILE to her grandmother, Jenay Weekly, of Topeka, as the two prepare to leave school together after a Grandparents Day celebration on Friday at Langston Hughes School, 1101 George Williams Way. Grandparents and special guests from near and far were treated to tours of the school from their special students along with activities, performances and snacks.

Grandparents go back to school

By Alex Garrison acgarrison@ljworld.com

Who bakes us cookies just because? Who listens to our stories? Who snuggles us while we read?

Grandparents do, and that’s why we love them.

That’s at least according to the first-graders in Kristina Meyer-Szelewycz’s class at Langston Hughes School. They celebrated Grandparents Day on Friday with a special “fun cheer” about their favorite things their grandparents and older friends and neighbors do for them.

The class prepared for the day with stories and songs about grandparents. It’s a schoolwide tradition, and the national grandparents day is Sunday. MeyerSzelewycz said that, in other classes, relatives had flown in from out of state just for the occasion.

grade,” Dave said. “That was a long time ago.”

Their granddaughter, Kayden Pursley, was the designated helper for the day. After the song, a rendition of the ABCs in sign language, an audience participation number — the funky chicken — and lots and lots of giggles, Kayden said she was just happy to see her grandparents in school.

First-grader January Jackson said her grandma was fun because “we play the ‘claw’ game she made up and she tickles me.”

But January made no bones about what made the FIRST-GRADER AVA GRAY and her grandmother, Martha Gray, of annual Langston Hughes Topeka, work on an activity together as part of the Grandparents special event so very speDay celebration Friday at Langston Hughes School. cial.

LIBRARY EXPANSION

Property owners want answers on extra tax for more parking

By Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

City officials are going to have to provide some extra information before downtown property owners will consent to an extra tax to fund more parking near the expanding Lawrence Public Library.

“There is no question that we need more parking in downtown,” said Mike Riling, a downtown attorney and member of the Downtown Lawrence Inc. board. “But the question is how much will this plan help to improve parking in downtown?”

In early July, City Hall officials proposed creating a special benefit district that would charge a new assessment to downtown property owners CITY to fund a $1.2 million project COMMISSION to add another level of parking to a garage planned to be built next to the Lawrence Public Library at Seventh and Vermont streets.

Under the plan, the extra level of parking would add 72 additional spaces to the garage — which is scheduled to have about 250 spaces if the city does not proceed with the extra level of parking.

But to pay for the project, downtown property owners would have an extra assessment added to their property tax bills for the next 10 years.

As currently proposed, property owners along much of Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire and parts of Kentucky Please see PARKING, page 2A

TOPEKA — Federal officials who threatened to sue Kansas over what they say is rampant sexual abuse of inmates at the state women’s prison didn’t consider aggressive steps taken to address the problem, Gov. Sam Brownback said Friday.

Brownback said he wants to meet personally with U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder about the letter sent Thursday by the head of the Justice Department’s Division of Civil Rights. The letter said sexual misconduct by staff and inmates at the Topeka Correctional Facility violated inmates’ civil rights and warned a lawsuit was possible if the division didn’t feel Brownback the state was doing enough to correct the problems by late October.

State Department of Corrections officials backed the governor up, saying incidents at the prison have been rare since the beginning of 2011. They said there’s been only one confirmed case of inmate-on-inmate sexual abuse, no confirmed incidents involving staff misconduct against inmates and no reports of inmates becoming pregnant while in the prison.

Brownback’s office also released a February 2012 letter from the Justice Department’s Federal Bureau of Prisons, which said it

Incubator leader leaving

Inmate indicted for failing to register A Douglas County Jail inmate was indicted Thursday in U.S. District Court for failing to register as a sex offender.

The indictment alleges that James C. Benimon II failed to register as a sex offender after being released from a Kansas prison in June 2011. Benimon had served nearly 10 years in prison for a Wyandotte County conviction for aggravated indecent solicitation of a child under the age of 14. Jim Cross, a spokesman for the U.S. District Attorney’s Office in the District of Kansas, said Benimon failed to register as a sex offender when he moved to North Dakota following his release.

Benimon was arrested in Douglas County in August on two drug crime charges.

Benimon faces up to 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine if convicted of the failing to register offense.

Hiring new dean is top priority for KU medical school

By Dolph C. Simons Jr.

Kansas University School of Medicine faculty members and students had hoped the current school year would start with a new dean. Even if he or she wasn’t able to move into the dean’s office by the start of classes, it would have been nice for the name of the new dean to be known.

This past April, former dean and executive vice chancellor, Barbara Atkinson, announced her intention to resign from her dual posts on July 1. Prior to this announcement, she had reluctantly agreed to ask for an evaluation of her leadership by medical school faculty members, and the responses were reported to be “shockingly bad.” Morale at the school was not good, and it was hoped a new dean would bring enthusiasm, leadership, vision, excitement and energy to the school.

Unfortunately, there is no new dean.

After Atkinson’s sudden departure from the school, before her previously announced date to step aside, a committee was formed to seek and select prospective candidates for the deanship.

The search was conducted during May, June and July, and a large group of possible deans was reduced to five. Eventually, the committee selected a single individual they believed was the best of the group.

The name of this individual, a highly respected member of the medical school staff, was forwarded to KU Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little, who rejected it, saying she wanted two or three candidates to choose from, not a single nominee.

This shocked, angered, puzzled and disappointed many at the medical school. Also, it was embarrassing to the well-known and admired faculty member who had been selected and recommended by the search committee.

Now, the committee has the task of initiating another search exercise and then forwarding those names to the chancellor. This is expected to delay the hiring of a new dean for the medical school for another three to six months unless the original choice is approved by the chancellor.

COMMENTARY Will those on the search committee go back and review the names and qualifications of those they previously had passed over and/or rejected, or will they build an entirely new list of candidates?

Is there any guarantee the name of the previously selected individual will be on the new list sent to the chancellor? What are the chances the individual the chancellor turned down will look more favorably on job

offers he receives from other medical facilities?

The manner in which various KU search committees have performed their tasks in recent years has left many on the campus, as well as fans and alumni throughout the country, puzzled and disappointed.

In some cases, it seems search committees have ended their assignments by forwarding the names of those they select as being the “best of the lot” without a truly outstanding individual among the finalists.

Wouldn’t it be better to start a new search rather than end up with a “second best” or “best we could cone up with” selection?

Hopefully, those on the medical school dean’s search group did a thorough and broad review of possible candidates setting high standards and requirements. Medical school faculty members have made it clear they are hungry for visionary leadership.

It’s hoped the chancellor’s re-

jection of the recommendation is not a signal she doesn’t think the individual chosen by the search team is not qualified, but rather that she thinks it more politically correct to have it appear she will make her selection from among two or three individuals, each supposedly having many strengths, but eventually select the search team’s top choice.

Medical school personnel and faculty and researchers on the KU campus did an excellent job in securing the National Cancer Center designation. It was a great effort!

However, as one senior medical school leader said, “We were operating with poor leadership under Barbara and now we are ‘toast’ until we find two more names to pass along to the chancellor and until she names a new dean. We cannot afford to stand still or merely drift. We need superior leadership to ignite the enthusiasm and excellence present at this school.”

TWO PEOPLE WERE EXTRICATED FROM TWO VEHICLES after a head-on collision in the 900 block of Maine Street around 2:15 p.m. Friday. Lawrence Police Sgt. Trent McKinley said that, according to witnesses, a white sport-utility vehicle, heading south, ran a red light at Ninth Street, then collided with a four-door maroon car about midway down the 900 block of Maine Street. McKinley said he thought the SUV was traveling at a high speed. The driver of the SUV was extricated, as was the driver of the car. Another person, who was a passenger in the car, was also injured. McKinley said none of the injuries was life-threatening. According to Lawrence Police Sgt. Craig Shanks the investigation into the accident is ongoing. See the video at LJWorld.com.

TOPEKA — State officials on Friday backed off any examination of the requirements for home schooling.

“I don’t see us pursuing that next year,” said state Rep. Steve Huebert, R-Valley Center, who is chairman of the HouseSenate Legislative Educational Planning Committee.

Huebert noted that several members of the State Board of Education last month said they had heard of children being kept home to baby-sit younger siblings while their parents claimed the children were being home-schooled.

But Huebert said current state law is adequate to investigate such allegations without having to consider changing any

laws dealing with home schooling.

During the August meeting of the Education Board, Chairman David Dennis, R-Wichita, said he would like to discuss whether the board should propose legislation to increase state reporting requirements for homeschoolers. The board agreed to discuss the issue further this month.

But officials said Friday that discussion won’t occur. Education Board Member Sue Storm, D-Kansas City, who attended the Legislative Educational Planning Committee meeting, said board members were “hammered” by homeschooling proponents.

Kansas doesn’t specifically authorize home schooling, but it does recognize what are called “nonaccredited private schools.” Nonaccredited schools are not required

The Lawrence school board may change a district boundary on Monday after months of consideration.

The change would affect the Deerfield School neighborhoods north of Peterson Road and east of Kasold Drive, including the area east of Iowa Street and north of Interstate 70 extending to the Kansas River. Parents brought the issue to the board in May, but rules dictated that action couldn’t be taken then.

If the proposal passes Monday, the attendance boundaries for Liberty Memorial Central and West middle schools will change start-

McClorey said. “We’re really starting to build some momentum in the technology sector of the economy, and I’m confident that will continue.”

McClorey has helped raise more than $180 million in capital for area startup firms since joining the Lawrence Regional Technology Center — the predecessor of the BTBC — in 2002.

“I’m sad we’re losing Matt, but very pleased we’re keeping him in the community,” said Douglas County Commissioner Jim Flory, who also serves on the local bioscience authority board.

McClorey was instrumental in raising money and guiding the operations of the Bioscience & Technology Business Center, which provides laboratory and office space to start up firms in a new 21,000-square-foot building across the street from

after living about a year in isolation as he recovered from the transplant and regained an immune system.

“It was my coming-out party,” he said. “It felt good to raise money for the cancer center, and it felt really good to be with my family and poised to sort of begin a second life.”

Mark has returned to work as publisher of the Lebanon News and he has self-published his first novel, “Pliney Fiske,” a Civil War mystery. More importantly, he said, he has been spending time with his family — wife Brenda and their two children, ages 23 and 17.

He’s also grown closer to his brother, Michael, and thinks it’s wonderful that he’s walking Sunday.

“I’m proud of him, and wish I could be there with him,” he said. “I sort of owe this second life to Michael for donating cells and to Dana Farber for the treatment I received.”

to employ teachers who are certified by the state, but their courses must be taught by competent instructors, and classes must be held for about the same number of days as public schools.

The only requirement to have a nonaccredited private school is to register the name and address of the school and custodian of school records with the State Board of Education.

State Sen. Jean Schodorf, R-Wichita, said no one wants to limit home schooling but that maybe there could be a more open dialogue between state education officials and home-schoolers.

“I want all kids in Kansas to get a quality education,” she said.

Boundary change to be discussed

brother was treated.

Travis has participated in the Jimmy Fund Walk for the past two years, but he was unable to make it this year so he contacted the organizers and asked if he could have a walk in Kansas. So far, he has raised $2,160.

At 7 a.m. Sunday, he will start his trek at Payless Shoesource, where he works in Topeka, and will follow Highway 40 west to Lawrence, where he will wend his way through the Kansas University campus and north along Massachusetts Street, ending at Starbucks, where he frequently stops for coffee.

“I will be thinking of my brother and celebrating,” Travis said. “It will be a celebration of strength.”

His older brother, Mark Travis, 55, of Grantham, N.H., was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, or ALL, in April 2010.

Mark said the illness “came out of nowhere.”

He was walking on the beach and his knee started

hurting, so he took pain medication and went to bed. The next morning, he passed out while taking a shower. He went to the doctor because he thought he had a bad reaction to the medicine. The doctor ordered a blood test and it showed Mark was anemic.

After a few more tests, he was diagnosed with ALL, a fast-growing cancer of the white blood cells.

“In a matter of days, I went from thinking I was a middle-aged guy who twisted my knee to realizing sort of my life was on the line,” he said.

He needed a stem cell transplant, and Michael, one of his three siblings, was a perfect match. He had intense chemotherapy treatments that wiped out his immune system while his brother had injections of drugs to stimulate cell growth. On Sept. 17, 2010, he began receiving his brother’s life-saving cells intravenously and a nurse sang “Happy Birthday” to him.

“I marvel at the attitude he had. He was a fighter,” Michael said.

Last year, Mark walked five miles with Michael and other family members in the Jimmy Fund Walk

ing in the 2013 school year.

The change would mean that all Deerfield students would move up to West rather than some to West and some to Liberty Memorial Central. That rule was put into place because of overcrowding at West, but the construction of SouthSCHOOLS west Middle School alleviated that problem, opening up a change back to a Deerfield-to-West plan. The neighborhood is closer to West than to Liberty Memorial Central.

The board will also vote on whether to accept a plan from Gould Evans Associates for pre-election plan-

ning on its proposed bond issue. The plan breaks up the hours consultants will spend putting together materials in support of the bond, which the district hopes to use to renovate elementary schools and improve technology.

Gould Evans says the pre-election plans come to a total of $120,180 in costs for hours spent researching needs, interviewing stakeholders and putting together an architectural proposal.

The district plans to have the bond issue on an April ballot. It hired Gould Evans last month.

The school board meets at 7 p.m. Monday at the district office, 110 McDonald Drive.

KU’s pharmacy school.

The center, along with three satellite locations, has attracted nearly 20 new technology and bioscience business, and was completely full after 16 months — nearly four times faster than leaders had projected.

The center has attracted several drug-development startup companies but also has attracted large companies, including Garmin, ADM and insurance giant Assurant Employee Benefits, which are seeking to tap talent and research at KU. McClorey has been leading an effort to garner approximately $10 million in funding for a 31,000square-foot expansion of the West Campus center.

Both Flory and Dever said they did not think McClorey’s departure would slow those efforts. LaVerne Epp, executive chair of the Bioscience & Technology Business Center, remains on the job and has been actively involved in the expansion plans.

“I don’t think this will delay us,” Epp said. “Many of those plans are well on

their way to being in place.”

Both the city of Lawrence and Douglas County have committed $1 million to help finance the expansion of the center at 2029 Becker Drive. McClorey had been in discussions with various KU entities, private investors and other parties to secure the remaining funding.

Epp said he hopes to have the capital plan for the expansion finalized in the next two weeks to 30 days.

McClorey is expected to remain with the center for several weeks to help facilitate a smooth transition, Epp said.

The Lawrence-Douglas County Bioscience Authority is expected to meet Monday to discuss plans for a search to replace McClorey.

“I think the loss of Matt will have less of a severe impact now that we have this center up and running,” Dever said. “With what we have built here, this job is really a great opportunity.”

Some potential vehicle thieves were thwarted in an early-morning theft attempt Friday.

According to Lawrence Police Sgt. Trent McKinley, a woman who lives in the 1300 block of West 24th Street woke Friday morning to see three men attempting to steal her 1997 Chevy pickup.

The problem? The truck’s battery was dead, and was set to be replaced Friday, McKinley said.

After being unable to start the truck, the suspects fled. The suspects, however, did cause about $800 worth of damage to

knowledge of what actually has been taking place, and that’s deeply concerning to me.”

Federal response The Justice Department stood by the conclusions in Thursday’s letter. Spokeswoman Nanda Chitre said in an email that its conclusions were based not only on the visit to the prison but interviews with inmates and prison officials and an “extensive” review of documents.

“Many of the reforms cited by the Governor, including the removal of the prior warden and the installation of cameras, were already in place at the time of our tour,” Chitre said.

Along with the other improvements, Cooper said the prison is addressing the division’s concern about most of the 249 staff members at the women’s prison being men. She said the overall percentage of male staff is now a little lower than the 68 percent cited in the letter, and the prison is actively recruiting women, who now make up 47 percent of entry-level officers.

“There’s been a tremendous amount of progress, just in 18 months,” Roberts said.

But Keen Umbehr, a Topeka-area attorney who has represented the prison’s inmates in criminal cases and inves-

tigates their complaints, expressed doubt that the problems had been adequately addressed. He said inmates fear retaliation and that former inmates who are on probation are afraid to speak out for fear of being returned to prison.

“The governor is going to try to soft-shoe this and whitewash this,” Umbehr said.

Background The prison housed 719 offenders as of Friday, including the four federal prisoners. Cooper led an hour-long tour for reporters.

Brownback’s office has said problems at the prison were allowed to “fester” during the administration of Democratic Gov. Kathleen Sebelius, who left office in April 2009 to become U.S. Health and Human Services secretary. Potential problems — including sexual abuse of inmates by staff — were highlighted by the Topeka Capital-Journal in a series of stories starting in October 2009.

A National Institute of Corrections report in January 2010 recommended more than two dozen changes, and then-Democratic Gov. Mark Parkinson’s administration reassigned the prison’s warden.

The Justice Department launched its investigation in April 2011.

the evidence was insufficient to support his conviction.

For example, the victim testified that her lip was cut and her wrists and thighs bruised when McCormick grabbed and held her. But McCormick argued that the victim’s injuries were “trivial” and not serious enough to constitute “bodily harm,” according to the appellate opinion.

But the appeals opinion said, “As recognized by the district court, however, the Kansas Supreme

Court has found that while ‘trivial’ injuries are insufficient to constitute bodily harm, there is no requirement that injuries be ‘substantial.’”

Before his conviction, McCormick had sued the Lawrence Police Department numerous times, alleging it had violated his rights, and he videotaped officers during traffic stops.

McCormick’s earliest possible release date is in 2019, according to the Kansas Department of Corrections’ database.

Weak jobs report delivers blow to Obama

By Tom Raum Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The disappointing August jobs report raises yet another campaign obstacle for President Barack Obama and makes his hopes of holding onto his own job even more challenging — especially in closely contested battleground states with painfully high levels of unemployment.

Coming less than 12 hours after the president accepted his party’s nomination for a second term, the lackluster report could wipe out or diminish any traditional bounce in the polls he might have gotten from the festive, wellchoreographed three-day Democratic National Convention.

“The broad message here is flat, flat, flat,” said economist Heidi Shierholz with the labor-affiliated Economic Policy Center.

A disappointing report for one month might be dismissed in normal times as an aberration, she said, “but a stagnant report when the unemployment rate is over 8 percent represents a continuation of the crisis,” meaning that getting back to pre-recession employment levels will take many more months, even years.

The bleak news played right into the hands of Republicans, who claim that Obama’s policies inhibit job production and have made the economic picture worse. “Did you see the jobs report this morning by the way?” Republican rival Mitt Romney asked report-

PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA SPEAKS AT A CAMPAIGN EVENT Friday at Strawbery Banke Museum in Portsmouth, N.H. Coming less than 12 hours after the president accepted his party’s nomination for a second term, a lackluster report could wipe out or diminish any bounce in the polls he might have gotten from the Democratic National Convention. ers in Sioux City, Iowa.

“Almost 400,000 people dropped out of the work force altogether. It is simply unimaginable.”

The overall unemployment rate declined from 8.3 percent to 8.1 percent last month, which should be good news, but the “improvement” came only because more people gave up looking for work.

Just 96,000 new jobs were created in August, sharply down from the revised July number of 141,000 and below the threshold of 100,000 to 150,000 new jobs needed each month just to keep pace with working-age population growth.

That’s not good news for

an incumbent president up for re-election in just 60 days. It was another sharp reminder that the economy isn’t Obama’s friend.

Even though the president likes to talk about recent private-sector job growth — for 30 consecutive months now, as he noted Friday in a campaign stop in New Hampshire — there are still 261,000 fewer people employed today than when he was sworn in.

The jobless rate then was 7.9 percent. It hasn’t been below 8 percent since.

Job production clearly is “not good enough” and the economy needs to churn out jobs faster, the president said, calling the road to recovery “a long,

tough journey.”

Friday’s jobs report complicates the electoral math for Obama and increases the political pressure on his campaign in battleground states with unemployment rates even higher than the national average. Nevada, for instance, has a 12 percent jobless rate, North Carolina has 9.6 percent, Michigan 9 percent, Florida 8.8 percent and Colorado 8.3 percent. Those state figures are all for July, the most recent month available.

So far, Obama has generally held the edge in polls in many of these states.

Both Obama and Romney campaigned Friday in battleground states with

better-then-average jobs numbers. Unemployment in New Hampshire in July was 5.4 percent and in Iowa, 5.3 percent. Other battleground states in this category are Virginia, at 5.9 percent; Ohio at 7.2 percent, Wisconsin at 7.3 percent and Pennsylvania at 7.9 percent.

Expect both campaigns to redouble their efforts and spending in the higher unemployment states.

Jared Bernstein, a former economics aide in the Obama White House assigned to Vice President Joe Biden, suggested the administration needs to do more to emphasize how its auto-industry bailout has helped bring back jobs in the automobile and related industries. Biden himself made this a major point in his convention speech Thursday night.

Obama aides suggested that the jobs report reminds people of what they already knew — that the economy is healing, but slowly.

The weak August employment report “just goes to show that nobody in the administration really appreciated early on the depth of the hole we fell into in 2008,” including Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner and former White House economic adviser Lawrence Summers, said Ross Baker, a political science professor at Rutgers University.

“It took five years to get out of the Great Depression,” said Baker. He said people shouldn’t be surprised “if this recovery is half as long.”

Voter drives adopt new methods TALLAHASSEE, FLA. — Some organizations are turning to sophisticated data mining, direct mail, the Internet and other strategies to register voters typically underrepresented on the rolls, including young people and ethnic minorities. Others are simply targeting those who favor their political goals, such as conservative Christians.

The shift away from more traditional voter registration drives — like volunteers with clipboards in front of a supermarket — is driven as much by restrictive state laws as it is better technology. Several states including Florida have recently passed legislation setting tight deadlines for groups to turn in voter applications, so groups like the NAACP were looking for ways to get the applications directly into the hands of voters.

And they also have to rely on voters to turn in the applications themselves.

“This is a new effort since the 2000 election,” said University of Florida political scientist Daniel Smith. “Technology has made it more cost-effective. ... When you have upwards of 40 percent of eligible populations not registered, there is a market for this kind of work.”

Florida is a particularly important area for the groups, as it is the largest swing state in the presidential election. Other battleground states on the center’s list include Colorado, North Carolina, Ohio and Virginia.

The increased focus on direct mail and data mining comes as the campaigns themselves increasingly use online data to raise money and persuade voters.

5 dead as bombs strike Syrian capital BEIRUT (AP) — Two booby-trapped vehicles exploded within hours of each other Friday in Syria’s once-impregnable capital of Damascus, killing at least five police officers as rebels increasingly target President Bashar Assad’s seat of power.

With the civil war intensifying, the head of the Red Cross warned after meeting with Assad that the situation in the country was “rapidly deteriorating.”

Elsewhere in Damascus, shells struck a Palestinian refugee camp, killing 10 people, state media said.

The uprising began in March 2011, when protests calling for political change were met by a violent government crackdown by government troops. Many in the opposition took up arms, and activists say more than 23,000 people have been killed. The government says more than 4,000 security officers are among the dead.

Damascus was relatively quiet until July, when rebels launched a bold attack, capturing several neighborhoods and setting off a bomb that killed four high-ranking security officials, including the defense minister and Assad’s brother-in-law.

Since then, the regime has succeeded in largely quelling a rebel offensive in the capital, but has struggled to contain an opposition push into the northern city of Aleppo, the country’s commercial hub.

Friday’s first blast in Damascus killed five officers when a motorcycle packed with explosives blew up across the street from a mosque in the Rukneddine neighborhood, state TV said. An Associated Press reporter at the scene said the bomb damaged a nearby medical clinic, staining its walls and the pavement with blood.

There were no casualties in the second blast, a car bomb that went off about two hours later in the upscale Mazze neighborhood near the Ministry of Information and the Ministry of Justice, which are about 330 feet apart.

Friday is the weekend in Syria and institutions are usually closed.

Quakes kill at least 64 in S.W. China BEIJING — Twin earthquakes and a spate of aftershocks struck southwestern China on Friday, toppling thousands of houses and sending boulders cascading across roads. At least 64 people were killed and hundreds injured in the remote mountainous area, and more than 100,000 residents were evacuated.

Damage was preventing rescuers from reaching outlying towns, and communications were disrupted after the midday quakes hit along the borders of Guizhou and Yunnan provinces, a rural region where some of China’s poorest people live.

The first 5.6-magnitude quake struck just before 11:30 a.m. and was followed by an equally strong quake shortly after noon, joined by dozens of aftershocks.

Though of moderate strength, the quakes were shallow, which often causes more damage.

Hardest hit was Yiliang County, where all but one of the deaths occurred, according to the Yunnan provincial government’s official website. Another 715 people in the area were injured. Yiliang’s high population density, shoddy building construction and propensity for landslides were blamed for the relatively high death toll.

U.S. declares Haqqani network a terrorist body

By Bradley Klapper and Matthew Lee Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The Obama administration declared Friday that the Pakistan-based Haqqani network of militants is a terrorist body despite misgivings about how the largely symbolic act could further stall planned Afghan peace talks or put yet another chill on the United States’ already fragile counterterrorism alliance with Islamabad.

Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton’s decision, signed Friday ahead of a Sunday deadline set by Congress, bans Americans from doing business with members of the group and blocks any assets it holds in the United States. The order, which will go into effect within 10 days, completes an odyssey of sorts for the Haqqanis from the days they partnered with the CIA during the Cold War and were hailed as freedom fighters.

C l i n ton, whose advisers were of two minds a b o u t whether the designation was Clinton the right path, said in a statement Friday that the U.S. will “also continue our robust campaign of diplomatic, military and intelligence pressure on the network, demonstrating the United States’ resolve to degrade the organization’s ability to execute violent attacks.”

Enraged by a string of high-profile attacks on U.S. and NATO troops, Congress insisted Clinton deliver a report on whether the Haqqanis should be designated a terrorist organization and all of its members subjected to U.S. financial sanctions.

BRITAIN’S PRINCE HARRY IS SHOWN the Apache flightline Friday by a member of his squadron (name not provided) at Camp Bastion in Afghanistan, from which he will be operating during his tour of duty as a copilot gunner. The prince has returned to Afghanistan to fly attack helicopters in the fight against the Taliban. troops in Afghanistan, mainly based in Helmand province, and has suffered 425 deaths since the start of operations there in 2001.

“Prince Harry, like any soldier, considers it a great honor to represent his country in her majesty’s armed forces wherever it chooses to deploy him,” St James’s Palace said in a statement.

Harry did not speak as he arrived in Helmand, and was not expected to comment publicly on his work for several weeks.

The prince’s previous posting as a battlefield

air traffic controller in Afghanistan in late 2007 and early 2008 lasted only 10 weeks. It was cut short after his deployment was made public.

Britain’s defense ministry had asked the news media not to report information surrounding the prince’s deployment, saying the publicity could put him and his colleagues in greater danger, but an Australian magazine not aware of the agreement broke the news. It was picked up by both the Drudge Report website and a German publication.

Stocks rise slightly after weak jobs report NEW YORK — The stock market followed one of its most exciting days of the year with a rather dull one Friday. Indexes barely rose following a weak jobs report, which increased hopes that the Federal Reserve would act next week to support the economy.

Haqqani network is responsible for several attacks in Kabul, including last September’s rocketpropelled grenade assault on the U.S. Embassy and NATO headquarters.

American officials estimate its force at 2,000 to 4,000 fighters and say it maintains close relationships with al-Qaida.

U.S. defense officials said the administration doesn’t believe the Haqqanis have designs to attack the United States. But they said the group shelters al-Qaida and other militant groups, allowing them to plan and train for possible operaRob Griffith/AP Photo tions targeting the U.S. The U.S. already has A TASMANIAN DEVIL CUB tries to bite his way out of a sanctioned many Haqqani small bag Friday during an event marking the National leaders and is pursuing its Endangered Species Day in Sydney, Australia. members militarily. But it resisted the terrorist designation because of worries that it could jeopardize reconciliation efforts between the U.S. government and insurgents in Afghanistan, and ruffle feathers with Pakistan, the Haqqanis’ longtime benefactor.

Prince Harry begins Afghanistan tour to fly Apache helicopters third in line to the British throne, began a four-month combat tour Friday in Afghanistan as a gunner on an Apache attack helicopter, fresh from a vacation that included strip billiards in a Las Vegas hotel.

It was the second tour in Afghanistan for Harry, 27, who will start flying missions within 10 days in the country’s restive Helmand province, the British military said. In 200708, he served in Helmand as an air traffic controller.

Looking relaxed if slightly tired, Harry gave a thumbs-up Friday after a long journey on a troop carrier flight from England to Britain’s Camp Bastion, a sprawling desert base near the southern Afghan town of Lashkar Gah. Capt. Harry Wales, as he is known in the military, wore his combat uniform and joined his 100-strong unit — the 662 Squadron, 3 Regiment Army Air Corps.

As part of the Apache’s two-man crew, Harry will be both a co-pilot and the gunner responsible for firing the Apache’s wing-mounted aerial rockets, Hellfire laserguided missiles and 30mm machine gun.

First lady’s speech ‘brilliantly cynical’ WASHINGTON — Given the state of the economy, by any historical standard, Barack Obama should be 15 points behind Mitt Romney.

Why is he tied? The empathy gap.

On “caring about average people,” Obama wins by 22 points. Maintaining that gap was a principal goal of the Democratic convention. It’s the party’s only hope of winning in November.

George H.W. Bush, Romneylike in aloofness, was once famously handed a staff cue card that read: “Message: I care.” That was supposed to be speech guidance. Bush read the card. Out loud.

Not surprisingly, he lost to Bill Clinton, a man who lives to care, who feels your pain better than you do — or at least makes you think so. In politics, that’s a trivial distinction.

On Wednesday night, Clinton vouched for Obama as a man “who’s cool on the outside but who burns for America on the inside.” Nice phrase, but not terribly persuasive. The real job of Clintonizing Obama was left to Mrs. Obama. As she told it in the convention’s most brilliantly cynical speech, her husband is not just profoundly compassionate but near-Gandhiesque in feelings.

Others spoke about what Obama had done. Michelle’s job was to provide the why: because he cares. Her talk was a syllogism: Barack loves his wife, he loves his children, he loves his family — therefore, he loves you.

Charles Krauthammer letters@charleskrauthammer.com

“

Others spoke about what Obama had done.

Michelle’s job was to provide the why: because he cares.”

I have no doubt about the first three propositions, but the fourth is a complete non sequitur. We were assured, nonetheless, that the president is a saintly man, dispensing succor — health care (with free contraceptives), auto bailouts, fairness lawsuits — to his people. The flood of tears in the hall testified to the power of this spousal paean. Its brilliance lay in Michelle’s success in draining from Obama any hint of ideological or personal motivation.

The problem with swallowing the “he cares, therefore he does” line is that it so plainly contradicts what we’ve seen over the last four years. Barack Obama is a deeply committed social-democrat who laid out an unashamedly left-lib-

eral agenda at the very beginning of his presidency and then proceeded to try to enact it.

Obama passed Obamacare, regulated Wall Street, subsidized Solyndra because that fits an ambitious left-wing agenda developed in his youth, now made possible by his power: redistributionist, governmentcentered, disdainful of success, suspicious of private enterprise, committed to his own vision of social justice.

Also missing from her speech was any hint of his outsized selfregard and personal ambition. Is he pursuing re-election because he cares? Or because it’s the ultimate vindication of the selfcreated man who came from nowhere to seize the prize? And whom defeat would turn into a historical parenthesis?

In 2008, Obama tellingly said that Ronald Reagan was historically consequential in a way that Bill Clinton was not. Obama clearly sees himself as the anti-Reagan, the man who reverses the 30-year conservative trajectory that Reagan launched (hence his consequentiality), and returns America to the 50year liberal ascendancy that FDR began and Reagan terminated.

This makes you world-historical. This is what drives the man who kept inserting the phrase “New Foundation” in the major speeches he gave in the early months of his presidency. The slogan was meant to make him

Area legislators

the rightful heir to the authors of the “New Deal” and “New Frontier.”

The phrase never took. But the ambition was unmistakable.

All this does not make Obama either bad or unique among presidents. But it does give lie to the lachrymose portrayal of him as the good family man writ large, presiding kindly over his flock.

His pledge in 2008 of “fundamentally transforming the United States of America” speaks to the largeness of both his ideology and his self-regard. That’s the far more plausible explanation of his drive to win, characterized by a ruthless single-mindedness that undid the Clintons in 2008 (and at times unhinged Bill) and that has so relentlessly demonized Romney in 2012.

The millions of dollars devoted to that demonization account for some of that 22-point “empathy gap.” Michelle’s soap-opera depiction of her husband as a man so infused with goodness that it spills over onto his grateful subjects was meant to maintain the other part of that gap.

I didn’t buy a word of it, but as a speech, Michelle’s was very effective. After all, what else do you say when you’re running for reelection in a land — as described so chillingly the next night by Elizabeth Warren — wracked with misery and despair?

Science should be part of presidential debate YOUR TURN

By Leonard Krishtalka

This fall, President Obama and former Gov. Mitt Romney will have a series of debates covering domestic and foreign affairs. The first debate should be about Science, with a capital S. Why? Because Science affects every aspect of society, underpinning smart policy governing energy, food production, human health, national security, economic growth, environmental fitness, natural resources and the quality of life.

How well versed or advised are our candidates in the science of climate? Water? Biofuels? Biomedicine? Is the science they cite credible or quack? Face it: Political expediency never lets the scientific facts get in the way, opting for soothing delusions over tough, responsible policy implications.

Let’s begin with two questions.

1. Climate Change. As The Economist magazine declared recently, we have entered the Anthropocene Era, in which humans are the greatest agents of change on a planetary scale. Global warming, much of it human-induced, is playing with the life-support systems of the planet. If unchecked, potentially we face: devastation of our oceans, protein resources, fresh water and agro-production; virulent diseases run amok; disruption of ecosystems that clean

our air, water and soil; extinction of half or more of Earth’s plants and animals; and sea-level rise and inundation of coastal cities.

Yet, during the Republican primaries, all but one of the candidates proudly ridiculed climate change and the science behind it.

Recently, Richard Muller and his Berkeley Group, formerly one of the fiercest crit- Krishtalka ics of climate change, announced his epiphany in the New York Times (“The Conversion of a Climate Change Skeptic,” July 28, 2012) after reanalyzing all the data and blessing the results of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change: Earth’s land temperature has increased 2.5 degrees Fahrenheit during the past 250 years, with a 1.5-degree rise in just the past 50 years. “Moreover, it appears likely that essentially all of this increase results from the human emission of greenhouse gases.”

Question for Gov. Romney: You have pledged to exempt carbon dioxide, the major green-

2. Science and Public Literacy.

Thomas Jefferson wrote: “Whenever the people are well-informed, they can be trusted with their own government.” But what if the people that form the government are not well-informed? This spring, a study by North Carolina’s Coastal Resources Commission predicted a 39-inch sea level rise by 2100.

To placate coastal real-estate developers, the GOP-led legislature passed a bill on July 3 that outlawed consideration of a sea-level rise above 8 inches. As comedian Stephen Colbert put it in his June 4 show, “If your science gives you a result that you do not like, pass a law saying that the result is illegal.”

The motto in Congress is: If you don’t like the cure, deny the disease. In a March interview with Rachel Maddow about climate change, Sen. James Inhofe, R-Okla., said, “I thought it must be true until I found out what it cost.” Other disease deniers include most Republicans on the House Committee on Science, Space and Technology, including its chair, Rep.

HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

FSHS’ Hughes one fiery ‘Bird OVERLAND PARK — I thought it only happened in cartoons. Roadrunner would trick Wile E. Coyote into falling off a cliff and poor Wile E. would get scrunched up like an accordion. In the next scene, Wile E. Coyote would be good as new. Then he’d get flattened on the pavement by a semi. Sure enough, the next scene he’d sport not even a bruise.

It doesn’t just happen in cartoons. In happens in high school football, too.

If you don’t believe that, then you never have seen Tye Hughes, No. 14 for Free State High, play.

One minute he’s on his back, the wind knocked out of him and into the next county. The next minute he’s intercepting a pass and running it back 19 yards.

One minute he’s limping off the field, his cramped-up calves burning as hot as his passion to play the game of football, and the next minute he’s back in there running around looking for someone a whole lot bigger to hit.

A senior, Hughes, all 5-foot-11 and 160 pounds of him, starts at receiver and outside linebacker, returns punts and returns kicks. For the first time in his career, he had the chance to field a punt on the last play of the first half Friday. The play was designed to suck the defense in the other direction, it worked beautifully, and Hughes didn’t stop running until he was in the end zone.

The 62-yard return stood as the biggest play in Free State’s 28-14 victory against a Shawnee Mission West football team that played extremely physical football through the whistle and then some. It sent Free State into the locker room leading 21-7.

Hughes, one of those receivers who has a knack for getting the first down, caught four passes for 53 yards. Watching Hughes play football, it’s natural to picture him wrestling and running track, but he doesn’t.

It’s all football all the time.

“I’m more of a keep-going, keep-playing (athlete),” he said. “In track, you’re in three events and you’re there for like five hours. I don’t have the patience to do that. I used to wrestle, but not anymore.

I’ve been working out a lot, focusing on football.”

Hughes said he improved his speed and agility working during the summer with Keith Loneker, his teammate’s father and a former Kansas University and NFL offensive lineman.

“He’s a great guy to be around and really knows what he’s doing and how to teach you to get better,” Hughes said.

Hughes delivered his share of hits Friday, but none as devastating as the licking he took going over the middle trying to catch a pass. He stayed down for a brief eternity.

“I couldn’t breathe for like 10 seconds,” he said. “I was fine. I just had to get my breath back.”

He got it back and used it to run around hitting people again.

If only Hughes, one fiery ’Bird, weighed about 100 more pounds, stood about a half-a-foot taller and had a long, black pony tail and massive ego, he could replace Steven Seagal for the next Hard to Kill flick.

Big 12 agrees to $2.6B TV deal

LM Otero/AP File Photo

THE BIG 12 CONFERENCE, LED BY COMMISIONER BOB BOWLSBY, SEEN HERE IN A MAY 4 FILE PHOTO, HAS AGREED to a 13-year television contract with ESPN and Fox Sports. The agreement, announced Friday, is reportedly worth $2.6 billion to televise football and men’s basketball through 2024-25.

FORT WORTH, TEXAS (AP) — The Big 12 announced a new 13-year deal with ESPN and Fox Sports on Friday that is reportedly worth $2.6 billion and should provide longterm stability for a conference that once seemed on the brink of collapse.

The deal to televise football and men’s basketball through 2024-25 includes a so-called “grant of rights” by each of the league’s 10 schools. That allows the Big 12 to retain the media rights and accompanying revenue of any school that leaves the conference. Few would be expected to ever take such an expensive step.

I think this demonstrates that ... we’re going to be partners for a long, long time.”

— Big 12 commissioner Bob Bowlsby sioner Bob Bowlsby said. “I think many were concerned that we were going to come off the rails again at some point in time. I think this demonstrates that that’s not going to happen, that we’re going to be partners for a long, long time.”

Terms weren’t released, but ESPN cited anonymous sources in reporting the contract was worth an average of about $20 million per school each year.

The deal will include games on ABC and all of the ESPN platforms, including

the year-old Longhorn Network. Fox Sports is also part of the agreement, providing for games on the Fox network and its cable platforms.

Every Big 12 football game will be televised, beginning with this season. That includes TCU playing at Texas on Thanksgiving night on ESPN, and future televised games on that holiday evening and the day after.

ESPN and Fox already had agreements with the league for football, but the new deal expands opportunities for both networks. After previously airing games on ABC, ESPN will now be able to broadcast Big 12 games on its cable networks. Fox, which had cable rights, will have over-the-air broadcasts beginning with a national game Please see BIG 12, page 3B

Panel vacates bounty suspensions NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Jonathan Vilma, Scott Fujita and Will Smith are back in the NFL. For now.

The suspensions of those players, plus unsigned free agent Anthony Hargrove, for their roles in New Orleans’ payfor-pain bounty scandal were lifted Friday by a three-member appeals panel.

The league reinstated the players a few minutes later.

The Saints’ Smith and Fujita, now with the Cleveland Browns, probably will play in Sunday’s season openers. Vilma

can at least rejoin teammates and coaches in New Orleans — and get paid — even if the linebacker is not yet ready to play because of knee problems.

And Hargrove can start talking to NFL teams about giving him another shot, after he was cut by the Green Bay Packers.

Still, there’s no telling how long the reprieve will last.

Coming just two days before the first full slate of NFL games this season, the ruling is a setback for Commissioner Roger Goodell and the league. But while the decision allows the

By Ron Morris The State (Columbia, S.C.)

One week into the season and college football already has its first controversy. Believe it or not, this one has nothing to do with the BCS. This one has to do with helmets, or lack thereof.

Brain buckets keep popping off the heads of college players at an alarming rate. This season, though, officials are doing something about those who lose their lids. A new safety rule calls for a player who loses his helmet to go to the penalty box, aka sideline, for the next play.

Fair enough. Sounds like a well-intended rule that will further prevent players from sustaining unnecessary injuries. One or two plays on the sideline might be enough to convince a player to don a tight-fitting helmet and buckle it properly on every single play.

Not according to sports talk radio and Internet message boards. Fans in those arenas already have demonized the rule, pointing to just how unfair it is to a player whose helmet is dislodged from his body.

My, oh my, they say, the loss of one play could be crucial to a team’s success in any given game.

Enough. Let the rule play out.

Let the instances of “helmetlessness� (new word for the college football’s vernacular, right next to “trickeration�) slowly decrease over the season before whining about the unfairness of it all.

Let’s go back to how this all came about.

As long as helmets have been a mandatory piece of equipment — 1939 through 2009 — players have absorbed hits of all kind without losing their helmets. Then, over the past two seasons, helmets began popping off heads in college football like PEZ tablets flipping out of the dispenser.

You began to wonder if a sneeze would suddenly dislodge a player’s helmet. The NCAA tracked the numbers and found that during the 2011 season there were more than two cases of helmets being dislodged per game.

We know this had nothing to do with a manufacturer’s error.

In fact, helmet technology continues to advance to the point where manufacturers believe if a helmet is worn properly it should rarely — if ever — get dislodged from a player’s head.

There certainly is no evidence to back my claim, but my guess is that losing one’s helmet became the cool thing to do in college football, like no longer wearing knee pads or hip pads. The thinking went like this: Your helmet falls off and a stadium full of fans and TV audience gets to see your pretty face.

So, players began over the past couple of seasons to wear their helmets looser on their heads, and failed to always properly secure all four chinstrap snaps now attached to helmets.

The ruling does not affect New Orleans coach Sean Payton, who is suspended for the season, interim coach Joe Vitt (six games) or general manager Mickey Loomis (eight games).

While the panel did not address the merits of the NFL’s bounty investigation, it found that Goodell overstepped his authority in hearing the players’ appeals of their punishments for participating in the Saints bounty program, which paid cash bonuses for hits that injured opponents.

NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said Goodell would “make an expedited determination of the discipline imposed� for violating the league’s bounty rule. “Until that determination is made, the four players are reinstated and eligible to play starting this weekend,� Aiello said.

Azarenka, Williams to meet in U.S. Open final NEW YORK — Normally so good, so gritty, in the crucible of the third set, Maria Sharapova finally met her match against Victoria Azarenka.

Coming all the way back from a set and a break down, the top-seeded Azarenka prevailed in a stirring third, beating four-time Grand Slam champion Sharapova, 3-6, 6-2, 6-4, on Friday to reach her first U.S. Open final.

Entering Friday, Sharapova was 12-0 in threesetters this year, and had won 78 consecutive matches in which she took the opening set, a streak dating to 2010. But Azarenka broke in the last game to push her own 2012 record to 12-0 in matches that went the distance.

Today, Australian Open champion Azarenka will play in her second major final of the season — and career — against 14-time Grand Slam champion Serena Williams. Seeking a fourth title at Flushing Meadows, the fourthseeded Williams wasted little time or energy while overwhelming 10th-seeded Sara Errani of Italy, 6-1, 6-2. Williams, trying to become the first 30-year-old woman to win the U.S. Open since Martina Navratilova in 1987, compiled a 38-6 edge in winners in her 64-minute semifinal against Errani.

KANSAS VOLLEYBALL

Defense was on display as Kansas University’s volleyball team defeated Arizona State, 20-25, 2519, 26-24, 25-23, in the Jayhawk Invitational on Friday night at Horejsi Center.

Earlier Friday, KU defeated College of Charleston, 25-15, 25-18, 25-22.

Kansas (8-1) tied a season-high with 16 blocks against ASU and was led by senior middle blocker Tayler Tolefree, who tied a Horejsi Center record with four solo blocks.

Tolefree also added six block assists. Redshirt junior middle blocker Caroline Jarmoc and sophomore outside hitter Chelsea Albers also stepped up for six blocks apiece as the Jayhawks’ nearly doubled up the Sun Devils in blocks, 16-8 1/2.

Junior libero Brianne Riley also impressed defensively with 23 digs on the night, while fellow junior Erin McNorton notched her first career double-double with 49 assists and 11 digs.

ASU (6-2) was led by freshman outside hitter Macey Gardner and se-

“It’s helpful,” KU coach Ray Bechard said against his team’s success against the Pac-12 foe. “Anytime you have big-time conferences going against each other, it’s big for us. The Pac-12 is a big volleyball

opening-set win. Gardner led the way for the Sun Devils with seven kills.

For KU, Jarmoc and sophomore outside hitter Sara McClinton led the team with four kills each.

The second set was filled with runs by both teams. Early in the set, Arizona State went on a 5-1 run to grab the early 9-6 lead. KU responded with a 7-3 run to take a 13-12 lead.

The Sun Devils then answered by going on a 4-1 run to take a 17-14 advantage. The Jayhawks battled back, winning eleven of the final 13 points of the set, en route to the 25-19 win. McClinton and Tolefree paced the offense with four kills each.

Behind 11 kills and five blocks from Jarmoc, KU defeated College of Charleston.

Kansas outblocked the Cougars 10-2 and outhit them .316 to .150 in the three-set sweep. KU’s 10 blocks, three solos and 14 block assists marked the fourth time this season the Jayhawks have recorded 10 total blocks — and the third time in four outings.

The Jayhawks will entertain Wyoming at 6:30 tonight.

Three minutes into the second half, Kastor sank her second goal for a 3-0 lead on a night when KU outshot MSU, 17-5 overall and 8-1 on goal.

The Bears’ lone goal came less than a minute later, early in the second half, on a 25-yard lob shot over KU goalie Kat Liebetrau.

The Jayhawks’ freshman forward, Williams, capped the scoring with a penalty kick in the 64th minute, her Big 12-leading sixth goal of the season. Williams has at least one goal in KU’s last three games.

The Jayhawks (5-11) will match up with North Carolina State at noon on Sunday at the Jayhawk Soccer Complex.

Fox Sports will have over-the-air access to at least six Big 12 games each season.

ESPN said it will televise up to 19 conferencecontrolled football games through 2015, then that number would increase to 23 starting in 2016. ESPN will remain the primary rights holder of Big 12 men’s basketball, including the conference tournament, and broadcast up to 105 games per season.

The Big 12 said the new 13-year deal with ESPN replaces a previous eightyear agreement that was scheduled to run through 2015-16. That runs concurrently with the 13year agreement between the conference and Fox reached last spring that was changed to reflect the expansion of rights and platforms.

“Today’s announcement, coupled with the hiring of Bob Bowlsby as our league’s new commissioner, is a great example of how well the Big 12 is positioned for the future,” said Texas athletic director DeLoss Dodds, chairman of the Big 12 ADs. “This contract ensures the Big 12 Conference will continue to be one of the premier conferences in the country.”

The new TV deals were already in the works when Bowlsby, the former Stanford athletic director, was named commissioner in May. And they come after two summers of uncertainty, when it appeared that the Big 12 might not survive the flurry of conference changes.

West Virginia and TCU begin Big 12 play this season, offsetting the departures of Texas A&M and Missouri to the Southeastern Conference. Nebraska previously went to the Big Ten and Colorado to the Pac-12.

— Texas athletic director DeLoss Dodds While the Big 12 lost four schools to three other conferences, the BCS league now seems as solid as ever.

Bowlsby believes the Big 12 is now going to be the envy of some leagues because of the expectation that “our distributable revenue will be every bit consistent with the highest in the country.” Plus, the overall structure of the league that provides for a round-robin schedule in football and all basketball teams playing home-andhome each season.

For now, there are no plans for expansion for a league that just last fall was looking for replacements.

“We have no active agenda for expansion of the conference at this point in time,” Bowlsby said. “That doesn’t mean that we are oblivious to what might be other opportunities going forward, but I really believe that a period of calm would be advantageous to us and college athletics in general. ... We have a lot going for us and we ought to be slow to share that unless somebody brings extraordinary cachet.”

Without being specific, Bowlsby said there are provisions in the new deal and an ongoing dialogue for “active issues, changing circumstances” and potential changes should there ever be league expansion and changes such as the re-establishment of a Big 12 conference championship game in football if more teams are added.

Bowlsby said the schools unanimously adopted the “grant of rights” and were also unanimous in its approval of the television contract in an early-morning conference call Friday.

FREE STATE’S JOE DINEEN (12) AVOIDS SHAWNEE MISSION WEST DEFENDERS as he finds some running room on a kick return during the Firebirds’ game, Friday in Overland Park.

Cody Stanclift, Fred Wyatt and Riley Buller were banged up and had trouble moving, the Firebirds didn’t allow senior Vikings running back Brett Sterback to bust enough long runs to change the game, despite his 152-yard rushing night and a TD. So while Free State’s offense imposed its will, racking up 401 yards, thanks in part to an 80yard, two-touchdown performance from senior

running back TJ Cobbs, the defense sat back, did its job and made plays.

Senior linebacker Corban Schmidt said the defense wanted to prove it could beat a good team.

“Everyone seems to think that Free State is really offense-oriented, but we love defense,” Schmidt said. “We love to hit. We love to knock people off, and every chance we can get, we love to do some more of it.”

The game very well could have been closer had the Firebirds not made the most of the Vikings’ decision to punt on the final play of the first half. Hughes took a low, lining kick, faked a handoff to Joe Dineen (also back to field the punt) and took off down the left sideline for a 62-yard touchdown return with no time remaining in the second quarter.

rolling right to scramble away from pressure before throwing a deep ball across the field to Will Thompson for a 27-yard score on the Lions’ first possession.

Strauss scored the next TD himself, running by a Northwest blitz and scrambling 55 yards down the right sideline for the touchdown.

The key block came from Jenkins, who knocked a Northwest defender on his back in the open field.

“I didn’t even see the block, honestly. I just pointed, trying to get him to go block someone,” Strauss said. “I heard it (though). It sounded like it was a pretty big hit.”

Jenkins seemed to get energized after that, carrying the ball for the next three LHS touchdowns.

His first score — a 26yard run around the left side — was helped by an outside block from senior wideout Drake Hofer.

Jenkins added a 15-

FSHS but on a cool, precipitation-free Friday against Shawnee Mission West (11), FSHS coach Bob Lisher and his staff knew they could let McFarland loose, and he connected on nine of his 21 passes for 161 yards and a TD in the win.

Tye Hughes (four catches, 53 yards) and Chris Heller (three catches, 28 yards) emerged as targets for the FSHS signal-caller, too, but McFarland couldn’t get over the opening drive.

“We threw it where they weren’t,” he said. “Keith and Zach Bickling made two great grabs the first two plays and that’s when we got the momentum.”

It certainly didn’t hurt that McFarland went on to rush for 133 yards and pick off two passes from SMW quarterback AJ Verdini.

Said Lisher of the game’s star: “He had a heck of a night.”

So, too, did the Free State defense.

ran with his pads down,” Wedd said. “It’s hard to tackle him when he starts playing with his knees high and his shoulder pads and his helmet ... there’s nothing soft there.”

The Lions (1-1) led, 367, at halftime.

Hofer tacked on the final score, catching an 11yard strike from Strauss with 1:29 left in the third quarter.

esty even had McFarland, who was watching Dineen, fooled.

“That’s what really put us ahead,” he said of the improbable score that gave FSHS a 21-7 halftime advantage.

When Free State had the ball in the second half, either McFarland, Cobbs or Demarko Bobo ate up chunks of yardage and clock with the ground game, which made Schmidt and the rest of the defense happy.

“Our running backs, they just go,” he said, crediting the O-line for its constant push.

Even after Sterback’s third-quarter TD cut Free State’s lead to 21-14, the Firebirds moved the ball, turned it over on downs, then got it right back with an interception and 19-yard return by Hughes. Seven plays later, Cobbs rushed for the game’s final score.

As happy as Lisher felt about the win, FSHS did commit eight penalties for 65 yards.

“We made enough mistakes,” the coach said, “that obviously we can’t make next week against Olathe South.”

subbed out many of its first-team players.

LHS’s strong rushing effort came even with a reshuffled offensive line, as starting right tackle Chris Gillespie sat out with a concussion.

That moved senior Art Hall to right tackle, where he picked up his first varsity start.

“I think we were just all ready to come in here and do what we had to do to get back on the radar,” Hall said.

Wedd said he was pleased with what he saw from Hall and also was happy with the improvement in junior linemen Alex Jones and Kyle Wittman from Game One to Game Two. Strauss finished 11for-15 passing for 169 yards and two touchdowns while adding 10 rushes for 89 yards and a score. He also contributed an interception at safety.

Thompson went over 100 receiving yards for the second straight game, catching five passes for 105 yards with a TD. Northwest (1-1) mustered just 217 yards of offense on 51 plays.

Coach: It’s all about heart

TALE OF THE TAPE

When Kansas has the ball Kansas rush offense vs. Rice rush defense A veteran offensive line, two 100-yard rushers in Week 1 and three guys with a blend of power and speed who can hurt defenses in a number of ways. The Jayhawks certainly possess the right recipe for a strong rushing attack, and, considering the Owls surrendered 343 yards rushing and three touchdown runs of 70 yards or longer in last week’s loss to UCLA, things certainly appear to be set up for a big day for KU’s running backs.

Sophomore speed back Tony Pierson (20 carries, 124 yards, 2 TDs vs. South Dakota State) will provide the biggest challenge for the Rice defense, but junior Taylor Cox (16-121-1) also looked comfortable in the opener and seems to be a solid complement to Pierson’s big-play potential.

Last week, UCLA’s Johnathan Franklin, 5-foot-11, 195 pounds, torched the Owls for 214 yards on 15 carries to pace the Bruins’ 9.3 yards-per-carry average. Edge: Kansas.

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

The instructions were clear and the tone plenty serious.

Last winter, not long after being hired by head coach Charlie Weis, Kansas University strength-and-conditioning director Scott Holsopple received a phone call from one of his new players who was running late.

“Hey, coach, I ran into traffic here. There’s a basketball game going on. I don’t know if I can get to training table,” said Holsopple, recalling the opening lines of the phone call.

“Where you at?” Holsopple asked.

“Oh, I’m about a mile away,” the player said.

What came next was the kind of answer the Weis regime was built upon — a nononsense, save-the-excuses, roll-up-your-sleeves-andget-to-work response that, at first, was as foreign to the Kansas players as Mandarin Chinese.

“Park and run,” Holsopple told him. “That’s why I train you. Go run.”

That phone call, for that player, was the introduction to Toughness 101, a new class taught by Holsopple and graded by Weis that, in a matter of months, would become a staple of the newlook KU football program.

“It’s really a reflection of his personality,” said tight ends coach Jeff Blasko of Weis. “He’s as tough of a human being as you’ll run into.”

In the months that followed, the Jayhawks learned the ins and outs of toughness, that invisible ingredient that all good football teams have and most bad ones lack. Weis said he was pleased with how tough his guys played after last week’s 31-17 season-opening victory against South Dakota State, but the examples he used to prove it were more mental than physical.

“It has nothing to do with how big you are, how strong you are, how fast you run,” Holsopple said. “It has to do with your heart. Do you have

Kansas pass offense vs. Rice pass defense The KU passing game was less than sharp during its opening victory against South Dakota State, and the issues started with quarterback Dayne Crist’s inaccuracy and were compounded by an apparent lack of chemistry between Crist and his new receivers. Both the receiving corps and Crist insist that the struggle was due mostly to the nerves and rust associated with most season openers, and both groups believe things will be much improved against Rice. It wasn’t all bad for the KU air attack, as Crist was sharp when he needed to be, completing three straight passes to kickstart KU’s final scoring drive after the Jackrabbits had cut the lead to 24-17. And both Daymond Patterson (4 Nick Krug/Journal-World Photo catches for 44 yards) and Kale Pick (5-81) proSTRENGTH-AND-CONDITIONING COACH SCOTT HOLSOPPLE CALLS OUT STRETCHES as the vided reliable targets.

Special teams Both teams delivered memorable special teams performances in their season openers, with the Jayhawks blocking two punts and Rice linebacker Cameron Nwosu setting an NCAA record for blocked extra points in a single game.

Nwosu’s three blocked PATs came in the first half and put him just two shy of tying the NCAA single-season record. In addition to Nwosu’s big day, Owls’ kicker Chris Boswell drilled a 53-yard field goal in Rice’s loss to UCLA. Like KU kicker Ron Doherty, who missed a field goal from 35 yards last week, Boswell also missed a 43-yarder.

The kick return game was pretty much non-existent for both squads in Week 1, and Doherty’s 46yard punting average, on six kicks, was slightly better than Rice punter Taylor Cook’s 40-yard average on seven kicks. Edge: Push.

Cain tags two, powers Royals past Sox CHICAGO (AP) — Lorenzo Cain hit two home runs, including a tiebreaking, two-run shot in the ninth inning, as the Kansas City Royals beat the Chicago White Sox, 7-5, on Friday night.

Salvador Perez also hit a two-run homer for the Royals, who won their sixth straight against the White Sox. Chicago hit three home runs: Alexei Ramirez hit a two-run shot, and Dewayne Wise and A.J. Pierzynski hit solo shots homers.

Kelvin Herrera (2-2) pitched out of a basesloaded jam in the eighth inning for the Royals.

Johnny Giavotella led off the ninth with a single

off Addison Reed (3-2).

Cain followed with a deep home run to left center, giving the Royals a 7-5 lead. His seventh home run of the season gave him his first career two-homer game.

Greg Holland pitched the ninth for his 12th save in 14 chances.

The White Sox left the bases loaded in the first and eighth innings. Herrera got Jose Lopez to pop out in the eighth.

With Adam Dunn and Kevin Youkilis missing from the top of the order, the White Sox jumped on starter Luis Mendoza early. Alejandro De Aza led off the first with a single and moved to second on Lopez’s groundout. Af-

ter Wise walked, Paul Konerko drove in De Aza with a single.

Billy Butler led off the second with a bloop single and Perez extended his hitting streak to 12 games with a two-run home run to left. It was his ninth of the season.

Trailing 2-1, Wise led off the third with a triple, but failed to score. Konerko flied out to shallow right field then Rios followed with another pop fly to shallow right. Giavotella, playing second base, made the catch on Rios’ ball with his back to the plate and Wise tried to tagged from third, but Giavotella made a good throw to the plate to easily get Wise.

Pierzynski tagged Men-

doza with a leadoff home run in the fourth to tie the game at 2. It was his 25th of the season.

With two outs in the fifth, Cain teed off on a slider from starter Francisco Liriano to give the Royals a 3-2 lead.

Wise came back with a solo shot in the fifth to tie the game 3-3. It was his seventh of the season.

White Sox manager Robin Ventura pulled Liriano after he issued consecutive walks in the sixth. Jeff Francoeur greeted reliever Nate Jones with an RBI double down the right-field line to put the Royals ahead.

Eric Homer gave Kansas City a 5-3 lead with a sacrifice fly.

Liriano has walked 15 batters in his last 14 innings. It was his third straight start that he couldn’t record an out after the fifth inning.

Notes: Dunn (strained right oblique) was out after missing two games due to the same injury. Ventura said he hopes Dunn can return today or Sunday. ..

Youkilis left the team to be with his wife, who is expecting to give birth to their first child. Ventura said he hopes Youkilis returns this weekend. ...

RHP Gavin Floyd (right elbow flexor strain) threw sliders, changeups and fastballs in a 55-pitch bullpen session Thursday. He plans on throwing curveballs in another session.

AP Photo/ Carlton Winemakers Studio

THIS PHOTO PROVIDED BY Carlton Winemakers Studio in Carlton, Ore., shows some of the wines produced at the studio, where eight small winemakers share equipment and expertise. Oregon is home to 500 wineries and a growing wine tourism industry, and the state is developing a reputation for pinot noir.

Oregon wine country: Go for the pinot noir

By Joseph B. Frazier Associated Press

CARLTON, ORE. — Driving southwest from Portland an hour or so through the suburbs, you hit the heart of Oregon’s wine country rather suddenly. Here the mountainous Coast Range slopes to the Willamette Valley floor, which is smothered with vineyards that produce some of the best pinot noir on earth.

Almost too quickly, you’re far from Portland and into lush, green farmland where white-onblue signs point up quiet, twisty roads toward small, family-run wineries.

Oregon is home to some 500 wineries. After California, which produces 90 percent of U.S. wine, it is one of the top three wineproducing states, along with Washington and New York.

But wine tourism here is a little different than in some other regions. Oregon’s winemakers are shooting for the high end of the market, targeting customers willing to pay $35 or more a bottle, though some varieties, especially whites, sell for less. Many vintners produce 1,500 or fewer cases a year and sell it all through their tasting rooms or wine clubs. You have to go there to find it, and visitors are doing just that.

“We’re not interested in taking over,” said Carrie Kalscheuer, direct sales manager at Rex Hill winery near Newberg. “We’re interested in making a good pinot noir and being known for that.” It is a sentiment echoed by others in the area.

For decades vintners believed northern Oregon was too cold to grow good wine grapes. They were wrong. Once growers began to realize the weather wasn’t the problem they had feared, they realized that the climate plus the soil varieties produced by the state’s varied geologic past melded beautifully to grow the thin-skinned, low-yielding and sometimes cranky pinot noir grape. Wine characteristics, growers say, can vary substantially from area to area in the valley, depending on the soil, even though the grape is the same.

The wines from the pinot noir grapes, the grape of the famed Burgundy district of France, are so good that they have at times bested their French forebears in international competitions. These wines also show up at formal White House dinners and on the Wine Spectator’s Top 100 list, where seven landed in 2006.

Oregon wineries got about 1.5 million visits last year, roughly half by outof-staters. Linea Gagliano,

who specializes in wine tourism for Travel Oregon, says that because the wineries tend to be small and family-owned, “it’s not Napa Valley-busy, it’s a more intimate experience.

The emphasis is on quality, not so much on quantity.”

One of the best, and busiest, times to visit is during the crush, when the grapes are harvested and pressed for the year’s vintage. The crush normally extends well into October. Just remember that while there will be well-informed employees on hand, the winemakers themselves, otherwise often available, may be tied up with production.

Picnic facilities at the wineries are common and a few larger operations have high-end restaurants. Luxury restaurants and tourist lodgings are expanding to accommodate the soaring interest in wine tourism here, and include the Allison Inn, named by Travel + Leisure magazine as the top resort spa in the continental U.S. for 2012.

“People who are going to spend $50 on a bottle of wine want fine dining and accommodations,” said Ellen Brittan, whose family owns Brittan Vineyards in McMinnville. “The highend wineries and accommodations complement each other. They could not survive on their own.”

A wide range of inns, B&Bs and simpler accommodations are available in the heart of the region and in nearby Portland, Salem and Corvallis, an hour or so away for day-trippers headed to the vineyards.

Note that on the narrow highways through wine country, traffic can be dense at times.

But the days of free romps through tasting rooms generally are over, and visitors here, as in California, often pay a tasting fee or maybe $5 or $10 for samples of three or four different wines. The fee often is waived for a minimum purchase. Some tasting rooms even in outof-the-way establishments may get a few hundred visitors in a week, and winemakers say they can’t afford to pass out large quantities of free samples from vineyards with tiny production capacities.

In 2011, some 20,500 acres in Oregon, about 32 square miles, were covered in wine grapes, well over half of it in pinot noir, followed, not closely, by pinot gris, chardonnay and more than 60 other varietals. The Willamette Valley is the state’s biggest wine region, but vineyards and wine tourism are also expanding in southern Oregon and in the Columbia River Gorge.

5 free things to do in Burlington, Vt., area

By Lisa Rathke Associated Press

BURLINGTON, VT. — Mountain and lake views along with fall foliage can be had for free in Vermont’s largest city of Burlington, which feels more like a big town than a city. The college town, home to the University of Vermont and a number of other schools, sits on the shores of Lake Champlain, a 120-mile lake between Vermont and upstate New York, with spectacular views of the Adirondack Mountains. The city offers a waterfront bike and walking path and parks as well as a downtown pedestrian mall, easy access to mountain hikes and foliage viewing, all at no cost.

Bike path Burlington has a 7.5mile recreational path that runs along Lake Champlain from Oakledge Park in the southern end of the city to the Winooski River, at the northern point. The path runs through three waterfront parks, past city neighborhoods, and offers bikers, walkers and runners spectacular views of the lake and Adirondack Mountains across the water in New York.

Dear Annie: I had to respond to the letter from “Seeing Red About Blue,” whose son is in a wheelchair. She often finds the striped area next to the handicapped parking spot occupied, blocking safe passage back into her van. I have a motorcycle. I used to park in those blue-striped areas because they were a perfect fit for my bike. I had a feeling they might not be OK to park in, but I had no idea what they were for and didn’t see any harm in leaving my bike there.

One day a woman approached me and actually explained that parking my motorcycle in the striped spot made it difficult for someone in a wheelchair to safely access their car, because I was blocking the route.

Annie, I should have known better. I didn’t realize I was causing undue hardship, and I immediately apologized

Annie’s Mailbox

Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell anniesmailbox@comcast.net

and moved my bike into another spot. I will never again park in those striped areas. I appreciated being put in my place. — Found a New Spot To Park Dear Found: Thank you for taking responsibility for doing the wrong thing and then correcting it. We hope other readers will make the same effort. Read on for more: From Chicago: I appreciated all the information in that letter. I never knew what those striped areas in parking

A killer role for nice guy Lifetime movies have become a place where nice guys get creepy.

Rob Lowe abandoned his pretty boy image to star in “Drew Peterson: Untouchable” as a thuggish cop and suspected — now convicted — killer. Tonight Tom Cavanagh (“Ed”) departs from his gee-shucks persona for the lead role in the TV shocker “Killer Among Us” (7 p.m. Saturday).

At first, he’s Nick Carleton, the nice, married dad of three. But things change dramatically after his wife is murdered, executionstyle, outside the family pet store.

As we know from “Law & Order” investigations, suspicion immediately falls upon the husband.

But months go by without leads.

Meanwhile, things get weird on the domestic front. Nick seems a little too rushed to move on, discarding all of his late wife’s clothes and personal effects. He lavishes expensive gifts on the children, as if to buy their love. Or is it their silence?

In one of many creepy touches, he begins to treat his oldest daughter, high school senior Alex (Tess Atkins), as a kind of surrogate mother/domestic. Only Nick doesn’t know that Alex is also in contact with the impossibly handsome detective Joseph Moran (Boris Kodjoe, “Soul Food”), who harbors doubts about Nick. ‘‘Killer” probably won’t spark a new career for Cavanagh as a scary guy. The rather uneven effort manages to place the spunky, 17-going-on-35 Alex in any number of perilous and uncomfortable situations: replacing her mother with haste while simultaneously spying on her dad and skipping class to have furtive meetings with an older, unmarried cop. “Killer” may begin with a violent murder, but it’s more of a slow, uncomfortable slog toward the inevitable than a heart-pounding thriller.

A new special, “9/11 Emergency Room” (7 p.m. Saturday, TLC) recalls a tragic day.

Saturday’s other highlights

NASCAR action (6:30 p.m., ABC), live from Richmond, Va.

U.S. Open Tennis (7 p.m., CBS) features the Women’s Final.

UCLA hosts Nebraska in college football (6:30 p.m., Fox).

“My Cat From Hell” (7 p.m., Animal Planet) offers clips from submitted Internet videos of felines at their worst.

A single mother (Candace Cameron Bure) adopts a dog, only to learn that a hunky athlete could be the animal’s real owner in the 2012 romance “Puppy Love” (8 p.m., Hallmark).

A vacation ends in tragedy on “48 Hours Mystery” (9 p.m., CBS).

A love triangle involving a funeral director ends badly on “Deadly Affairs” (9 p.m., ID), hosted by Susan Lucci.

Jimmy Fallon hosts “Saturday Night Live” (10:30 p.m., NBC), featuring musical guest Michael Buble.

lots were for. I honestly thought they were for emergency vehicles. I never thought they were there to help with ramps, walkers, wheelchairs, etc. I am very glad that your writer explained the purpose. Education is power. Thank you. I am now enlightened.

Los Angeles: I believe there is an easy solution for drivers who park in the striped lane between handicapped parking spots, preventing a side exit for handicapped passengers. These lanes should also have a posted sign that says, “No Parking, Handicapped Access Lane,” complete with corresponding fines. Usually, those signs are only placed in front of the actual parking spot and not the striped area next to it.

Michigan: I, too, have a side-loading wheelchair van and have also been “parked in” by people choosing to use

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Saturday, Sept. 8: This year you often act on one idea while espousing a different one. You also tend to say one thing but do another. If you are single, you could meet someone through one of your commitments. If you are attached, working together on a project or for a common cause strengthens the bond between you.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) Could you be overly optimistic? Positive thinking helps manifest your ideas, but it all depends on how you take disappointment. Tonight: Go to your favorite haunt.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) You might expect more from an emotional investment than is logical. A touch of realism might make you uncomfortable, but on some level, it will serve to protect you. Tonight: Your treat.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) You have a way about you right now that makes you difficult to resist. Your spontaneity opens up new paths and possibilities. Tonight: All smiles.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) You could need some time away from others. You might want to think through a decision without hearing everyone’s opinions.

Tonight: Shhh ... you do not need to reveal everything.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) You don’t need to be rigid, but it would be wise to keep your eye on the big picture. You might feel as if there are too many decisions or possibilities. Tonight: Zero in on what you want.

YAWNSVILLE By Adam Sewell

the striped area. I’ve also seen small cars with handicapped placards parked in van-designated areas. And it’s exceptionally common for people to leave their shopping carts in those striped areas. My husband purchased a small orange cone and printed RAMP on it in large black letters. He attached a 6-foot rope to it and tied the other end to the front passenger seat of the van. When we park, we pull the cone out and place it in the adjoining space. And do call the police next time there is a car parked in the striped area. When I did this, they didn’t tow the car, but they did write a ticket. If we make this an issue, the police will enforce the ACROSS law.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You could be more in sync with someone you’ve put on a pedestal than you might realize.

You never looked at the similarities between you before now. Tonight: Leader of the gang.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Share some of your drifting thoughts with the person they involve. Good feelings will emerge as a result. Tonight: Let the good times rock and roll.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Everyone needs to get away with a favorite person every so often. You might be surprised by what this person shares. Tonight: Out late.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) A close loved one simply does not make sense to you. Eventually, you’ll understand where this person is coming from. Tonight: Follow someone’s lead.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Stay nice and calm when dealing with someone’s requests and desires. You might opt to get a project done or curl up with a favorite book. Tonight: Put your feet up and relax.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) It makes no difference what you do — you have fun nearly anywhere, with anyone. You’re simply in the mood to live it up. Tonight: Leader of the gang.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Visit with relatives rather than run out the door to meet someone. You often do not make enough time for certain members of your immediate family. Tonight: Go for spontaneous.
