Regents reverse stance on remedial classes ——

Measure to end state funding now seen as positive

LAWRENCE-DOUGLAS COUNTY FIRE MEDICAL QUARTERBACK PAT KARLIN, above at center, escapes the grasp of Law Enforcement team members Scott Jennings, left, and Jason Felbush during the annual flag football charity game for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Douglas County on Sunday at Free State High School. AT LEFT, Felbush looks for running room after getting the ball. AT RIGHT, Richie Whitis, of the Law Enforcement team, and his 2-year-old daughter, Eliza, watch from the sidelines.

The Law Enforcement team was made up of members from the Lawrence Police Department, Douglas County Sheriff’s Office and KU Public Safety Office. This was the third year for the charity showdown, and the third time that Fire Medical personnel won. Sunday’s score was 49-18.

TOPEKA — Higher education officials were less than thrilled during the last legislative session when House Speaker Mike O’Neal, RHutchinson, pushed for legislation to prohibit the use of tax dollars for remedial courses at state universities.

But last week, Kansas Board of ReOF gents President BOARD REGENTS and Chief Executive Officer Andy Tompkins said the law has become a positive.

“We’ve taken this very seriously,” Tompkins said. He said he believes the law has made university CEOs more focused on the experience of freshmen students.

“It gets everybody’s attention,” he said.

When O’Neal proposed the measure, the Board of Regents was officially neutral on the bill. But some higher education supporters were unhappy with the Please see REMEDIAL, page 2A

The school refers to them as “international” rather than “exchange” or “English as a second language” (though they’re that, too) because Seabury’s approach is a little different from that of most public schools. The school hopes to keep these nine students until they graduate. Rather than a relatively short-term engagement with local host families, Seabury’s international students often stay with extended biological family in the U.S. in lieu of attending secondary school in their home countries.

in the U.S. Gregarious, inquisitive and confident, Chan wants to go to Kansas University and study education.

Ibrahim Iskanadrani is a sophomore from Saudi Arabia also in Bryan’s Friday afternoon ESL class.

He lives with his older brother and sister in Lawrence, whom he came to visit in 2010. He said his father told him then that it was best for him to stay and learn English well before college, unlike his siblings, who struggled with it more at a later age.

He likes American school, he said, because teachers are more patient — they “always explain wisely” — and there are more extracurricular activities.

Han “Gray” G, another Seabury ESL student from China (“G” is the closest transliteration of her first name), says that American school is also easier.

proposal, saying that some students are high achievers but may need help in one subject.

Most remedial courses at college are math.

As originally proposed, the bill also would have reduced the number of freshmen or transfer students allowed through the “exception window,” meaning they don’t meet minimum admission standards.

less stressful than back home, so she feels it’s easier to really learn.

But learning a new language — while simultaneously learning other subjects in a new language — isn’t so easy. Gray and Chan emphatically agree that the best subjects at Seabury are math and art. “Is that because the language barrier isn’t so hard?” Bryan asks.

Gray and Chan pause to wonder, with Ha “Ellie” Cho, who is from South Korea, also thinking it over. Yeah, they agree, probably.

Gray also agrees it can be hard not to want to speak in her native language with those around who know it, like Chan.

And Ellie has her extended family in Lawrence to speak Korean with.

Ibrahim has another take, though; he says he gains English through TV shows, movies and just the strong desire to make American friends. Ellie says Seabury has become a family for her and that support has really helped her grow.

“It’s hard in the beginning,” Chan adds. “But you just practice to get more comfortable.”

Tompkins said he thought universities would have policies in place even earlier than the bill requires.

Remedial courses will still be offered, but state funds won’t be able to be used to pay for them, he said. He said the courses will probably be funded through tuition.

Great pumpkins face off at Kansas State Fair HUTCHINSON (AP) — The two heavyweights stepped up to the scale.

In one corner, coming in at an astonishing 643.2 pounds, the defending champion and six-time title-holder.

In the other corner, weighing only 376 pounds, the rookie challenger in his first-ever bout.

You can imagine how this fight ended.

Growing giant pumpkins can be a brutal contest.

On Thursday night, inside the Pride of Kansas building on the Kansas State Fairgrounds in Hutchinson, the weigh-in for this year’s giant pumpkin competition took place.

For the second year in a row, drought conditions across the state made growing the behemoth gourds a difficult task. Only two pumpkins were entered. Last year, only one survived the brutal summer heat to make it to the state fair, and that pumpkin weighed only 366.5 pounds.

Of course, that one pumpkin was grown by 64-year-old Doug Heathman of Liberal. He is the undisputed grand master of growing giant pumpkins in Kansas, having won the state fair title six of the last seven years.

Despite his success, the

ultimate title still eludes Heathman. The state record for a pumpkin is 976.2 pounds, grown by Brian Stanley in 2007, which also is the only year since 2005 that Heathman hasn’t won the contest. He finished second that year.

But this year Heathman faced a surprising challenger: 12-year-old Ryan Grabman of Wichita. This is his third year of growing giant pumpkins, but the first year he’s been successful enough to enter one in the state fair.

Grabman says he was inspired to try it, in part, by seeing giant pumpkins at the state fair when he was “5 or 6 years old.”

“It was 4, 5, maybe 600 pounds, I can’t remember,” Grabman said. “I just kind of thought that’d be cool, so I tried it.”

Heathman won both of those years, growing a 618-pounder in 2005 and a 680-pounder in 2006.

“I think that’s a good deal,” Heathman said of the inspiration offered to Grabman. “I wish more people would do it.”

Though Grabman came up short in his quest to grow the largest pumpkin in the state this year, he vowed there would be a rematch.

“I’ll do it again.” Grabman said. “Next year.”

PADDLERS TAKE STOP ON A SANDBAR along the Kansas River near De Soto in this Aug. 23 photo. The environmental advocacy group called Friends of the Kaw has been working with communities over the past decade to add boat-launch areas and to take groups out on the river to see the wildlife that calls it home.

Kansas’ prairie river lures outdoor adventurers

By Heather Hollingsworth Associated Press

DE SOTO — A bald eagle swoops over the Kansas River. Its fledglings have already hatched, but its large nest is hard to miss, nestled in a tree along the water.

Until recently, few visitors were able to paddle the river — also known as the Kaw — to see the eagles and herons that fish here and perch in the cottonwoods, sycamores and willows along its banks.

But an environmental advocacy group called Friends of the Kaw has been working with communities over the past decade to add boatlaunch areas and take groups out on the river to see the wildlife that calls it home.

In part because of this work, the river was designated in July as the newest addition to the National Water Trails system. The designation encourages state, local and federal governments to work together to increase water recreation, promote tourism and help local economies.

“The Kansas River I think is fairly unique,” said Laura Calwell, a spokeswoman for Friends of the Kaw. “It’s a big, wide, prairie-based river and because of all the sandbars, it’s like having an ocean beach in the middle of Kansas. And many of the rivers that I’ve paddled on in the United States, while they are beautiful, they don’t have any sandbars.

I’m like, ‘Oh, I miss my sandbars on the Kansas River.’”

Up on those driftwoodstrewn sandbars, paddlers look for frogs and the tracks of raccoons and deer that drink from the waters. The sandbars are public property, so paddlers are free to picnic and camp there, often with nobody else around.

“Right now as it stands on the Kansas River, if you are on a float trip you are probably not going to see another group,” Calwell.

“You might, but probably not. You really have the whole river and the sandbars to yourself.”

The river is appropriate for novice canoers and kayakers when the water level is low, as it is now with this year’s drought.

Many sections are no more than knee-deep, which may surprise newcomers because the river is as wide as two football fields in some spots. But it’s so shallow paddlers occasionally have to push their boats over sandbars.

And because the state is so flat, the river doesn’t move fast, with water dropping only about 2 feet in elevation per mile. That makes it safe and easy for family outings, though Calwell recommends passengers be at least 5 years old and paddlers at least 14, accompanied by an adult.

The river gets the most recreational use from spring through mid-October, though canoers and kayakers continue to paddle on warm days in late October and November.

Contact the group’s Laura Calwell, known as the Kansas River Keeper, for help at 785-312-7200 or email her at riverkeeper(at) kansasriver.org.

Opening up The Kansas River is named after the Kanza or Kaw Indians who once lived along its banks. The waterway begins where the Smoky Hill and Republican rivers join at Junction City near the Fort Riley Army base. It then flows about 170 miles eastward taking paddlers through the scenic Flint Hills, two college towns and the state’s capital before it dumps into the Missouri River at Kaw Point in Kansas City, Kan. It was at the confluence of the Kansas and Missouri rivers that the Lewis and Clark expedition camped more than 200 years ago as they journeyed westward to explore the Louisiana Purchase. But prior to a decade ago, the Kansas River had only three public boat-launch areas, with another four or five on tributaries, Calwell said.

With 11 public access areas added since then, the Friends of the Kaw is coming close to its goal of a public boat launch every 10 miles. Eventually the group hopes to add more at five-mile intervals. Fivemile stretches are popular among novice paddlers because they take about two hours to complete, not including breaks, compared to three to four hours for 10-mile stretches.

Calwell’s group is one of at least two that takes people out on the river, and several businesses rent canoes or kayaks for between $20 and $70 a day.

Ryan O’Neill, a 21-yearold junior in animal science at Kansas State University, began renting out

his seven kayaks just this year after hearing from people wanting to explore the river.

“The scenery, there is something about it,” O’Neill, who calls his business Mudkat Kayaking, mused. “Especially in the Flint Hills part. It’s rolling hills, and as far as the river itself, it’s really sandy and nice. It’s not necessarily moving fast, so you can get out of your boat and look around and get into the water.”

Trip planning When planning a trip, keep in mind that some stretches of the river are more pristine than others. While debris like old tires and sand and gravel dredging operations mar some areas, other spans of the river are unsullied.

Calwell recommends monitoring wind speeds and the flow of water before departing, and watching out for dams. One low-water dam near a water treatment plant in Topeka has been particularly treacherous, killing a kayaker in July 2011 and two canoers in August 2007. Topeka already has added warning signs and a paved pathway where paddlers can portage their vessels to get around it. In mid-August, $50,000 was approved to study ways to make the dam safer, city spokesman David Bevens said. River enthusiasts eventually would like to see the dam transformed into a whitewater run.

“We recognize that the river is becoming more popular as a recreation outlet, and we are working with the public to make it as safe as possible around our water intake area and low-water dam,” Bevens said.

Another project in the downstream town of Lawrence, home to Kansas University, has paddlers excited. As part of a hydroelectric plant that’s under construction, Bowersock Mills & Power Co. plans to add a portage area by spring 2014 where people can pull out their canoes or kayaks and carry them around a downtown-area dam. The area already is popular among kayakers who like to play in the waves below the power house of the company’s existing hydroelectric plant.

“The Kansas River is the great recreational resource for our corner of the state,” said Bowersock owner/operator Sarah Hill Nelson, who herself has kayaked, canoed and camped on the river. “And I think it has been ignored or underemphasized for a long time.”

Leroy Mize is a retired builder who in recent years has turned to art.

One day a couple of years ago, Mize was vacationing in Wichita when he spotted a grasshopper constructed out of a pipe wrench and some horseshoe nails for sale at a gasoline station. The grasshopper had eyebrows, antenna and wings — all made from tools. Mize surveyed the creation and thought, “I could do that, only better.”

Insect art CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

When Mize got home, he drafted a blueprint for the prototype. Within days, he was firing up the blowtorch.

Mize is 71, with salt and pepper hair, gold rimmed glasses and a mustache. In the 1970s and 1980s, Mize and his father built nearly every house on his block in Oskaloosa. Retired now, Mize can’t keep his hands still. Most days, he is in his garage tinkering.

Hunkered over a work table, he spends his days welding, hammering and drilling.

Thousands of dollars’ worth of tools spill from Mize’s home garage. He ran a body shop for 35 years, and during his career, he accumulated the machinery and the tools he now uses to make grasshoppers.

“You’ve got to have a torch, and you’ve got to have grinders and air compressors,” Mize said.

“You couldn’t build this in your garage if you didn’t have the shop tools to do it with.”

Mize constructs each grasshopper leg from brass, grinding it down and polishing it so it looks as shiny as a mint coin.

He gives the grasshoppers feet, grinding and polishing them so they won’t scratch the surfaces they rest on.

The grasshoppers have themes or evoke brand names: There’s a red, white and blue one; a hot pink one. One emulates John Deere trac-

tors. Another mimics Harley-Davidson motorcycles.

When Charlie Summerville, also a builder, saw Mize’s grasshoppers on display at a parts shop in Oskaloosa, he bought one immediately.

“I kind of fell in love with it,” he said.

The art resonated so deeply with Summerville that he offered Mize a freelance project. Summerville, who is pondering retirement, had a 48inch pipe wrench that he had somehow acquired but didn’t want to sell. He didn’t have use for it. Until he spotted Mize’s sculptures.

Summerville wondered if Mize could make a giant grasshopper and still have it look polished and professional.

Mize took on the project. While most of his grasshoppers take three days, this one took two weeks. Mize plunked $525 into the 4-foot grasshopper, which was laden with brass nuts, $5 a piece.

When he was done, Summerville was pleased. He has hauled it to Topeka and Atchison just to show it off.

“It’s mind boggling to people when they see something like that,” Summerville said. “We’ve had a lot of people show up and look, and they’re amazed by that thing. It’s a great conversation piece.”

LEROY MIZE, OF OSKALOOSA, LOOKS OVER his collection of grasshoppers he’s made from old pipe wrenches, one of which is a 4-foot-long grasshopper that requires two people to move. BELOW, one of the first grasshoppers Mize made is pictured.

Artful tendencies Mize has always had an affinity for art. As a boy, he struggled academically and would doodle and draw in class to entertain himself. Mize has dyslexia, and at the time, no one knew what to do with him. Teachers would assume he wasn’t interested in learning, when the truth was he couldn’t keep up. Once, when Mize was about 15, his grandfather offered to buy him a Corvette if only he could read a book aloud within a year. The year came and went, and Mize couldn’t do it.

“I can probably do 20,000 things that other guys can’t, but I’m not good at reading or math,” Mize said. “It just didn’t make sense to me.”

What made sense was building. Mize’s home, which he built himself years ago, is furnished with objects he has made: rocking horses, oak dressers, a replica of the Tin Man from the “Wizard of Oz.” Often he sees something someone else has created and then tries his own hand at it, striving to improve the original.

“I have never been the type of person who could invent anything from space, but I was always so good with my hands.

I could do anything anybody else did and improve on it,” Mize said.

And in the case of the 4-foot grasshopper, Mize might have made the only one.

“I’ve got something most people don’t have, and you can’t just go out there and buy it,” Summerville said.

in July. Once admitted, McCulley informed the school that “she could not perform some of the technical standards required of students without reasonable accommodation.”

McCulley met with school officials to discuss some of the tasks she would be required to perform in medical school, such as during clinical rotations. McCulley’s physician sent a letter to school officials stating that McCulley might have difficulty with some of the tasks required, such as conducting home visits to residences without wheelchair accessibility or being able “to use enough physical force for chest compressions.”

In July, Steven Stites, chairman of the department of internal medicine, sent McCulley a letter “concluding that she could not meet the essential requirements of the School of Medicine’s education program with or without reasonable ac-

commodation,” according to the lawsuit.

The lawsuit claims that school officials never discussed with McCulley potential accommodations that might have enabled her to meet school requirements.

The lawsuit seeks $100,000 in damages. McCulley is represented by

the Topeka law firm of Sloan, Eisenbarth, Glassman, McEntire & Jarboe.

No court dates have been scheduled yet in the case.

A spokeswoman for KU Medical Center declined comment.

SOUND OFF

Q:

I’m a neighbor near Southwest Middle School, and several nights a week and on Saturdays, we have football players’ parents parking on our street, on Inverness, blocking our view so we can’t see when we need to cross the street safely. Whom do we talk to? It’s a risk for us in the neighborhood and also others who are trying to drive in that neighborhood.

A:

Megan Gilliland, the city’s communications manager, provided this information: Parking is permitted on Inverness because the road width is sufficient to allow cars on each side.

The Standard Traffic Ordinance considers it unlawful to park within 20 feet of a crosswalk or 30 feet of a stop sign. If drivers are parked illegally, the motorist could be ticketed. However, if the motorists are not parked illegally, the issue could be handled by contacting the Traffic Safety Commission — at traffic@lawrenceks.org — for review to see if no parking areas are warranted.

The Kansas City Star reported that Eugene A. Hilliard was unresponsive when a deputy found him Saturday morning at the Clay County Detention Center. Sheriff Bob Boydston said the 46-yearold Ottawa, Kan., man was pronounced dead at the scene.

Hilliard is suspected of breaking a portion of his eyeglasses. The initial report is that he created a sharp edge by rubbing the glasses on the concrete wall or floor.

Hilliard had been in the detention center since Tuesday. He was moved to a segregated cell after other inmates learned he was being held on firstdegree statutory sodomy charges.

Boydston said Hilliard showed no signs of depression.

Big Well museum a big hit

Bucklin, who has visited the Big Well four times, bringing visiting children and grandchildren.

Stout admires the museum’s architecture and likes the center’s display of scenes of Greensburg.

“I grew up south of Mullinville,” Stout said, and she remembered walking down “the scary stairs” at the old site.

Claudine Cassidy, Pratt, said the new museum has “very nice steps,” but her family was “very, very disappointed” with the Big Well.

“It just isn’t like it used to be,” Cassidy said.

Cassidy said the steps went down only 50 feet, and she regarded the adult admission price of $8 as “kind of high.”

The old steps went down about 80 feet, Barnes said, and the old admission charge was $2.

There are three reasons, Barnes said, why visitors go down just 50 feet: Budgetary constraints; insurance; and the fire code.

Fire code limits the travel distance to an exit, Barnes said. There’s only

one way up and down from the well, she said, so a second exit was not an option.

The Big Well previously was “grandfathered in” under the old fire code, but the new construction met compliance with current codes, she explained.

The old Big Well drew about 40,000 visitors yearly.

A lot of people want to compare the new museum to the old one, Barnes said, but the old site was “just the well and gift shop,” she said.

Some visitors say, “‘It’s nothing like I remembered it,’ but in a good way,” she said.

“We have so much more of story to tell,” she said, and the tornado is part of that story at the center.

Visitors include those who remember the old site; those who have heard about the Greensburg tornado; and still others who “happen upon us and have no idea we had a tornado here,” Barnes said.

When they learn about the twister, Barnes said, they say, “‘Oh yes, you’re that town.’”

BRIEFLY Iraq VP convicted; attacks kill 92

Mark Lennihan/AP File Photo

ANTHONY ST. JEANOS, LEFT, USES A NET TO SKIM DEBRIS FROM THE WATER during a test of the waterfalls at the National Sept. 11 Memorial at the World Trade Center site in New York in this May 13, 2011, photo. The foundation that runs the memorial estimates that once the roughly $700 million project is complete, the memorial and museum will together cost $60 million a year to operate.

World Trade Center memorial magnificent, but at a steep price

By David B. Caruso and David Porter Associated Press

NEW YORK — With its huge reflecting pools, ringed by waterfalls and skyscrapers, and a cavernous underground museum still under construction, the National Sept. 11 Memorial and Museum at the World Trade Center is an awesome spectacle that moved and inspired some 4.5 million visitors in its first year.

But all that eye-welling magnificence comes with a jaw-dropping price tag.

The foundation that runs the memorial estimates that once the roughly $700 million project is complete, the memorial and museum will together cost $60 million a year to operate.

The anticipated cost has bothered some critics and raised concerns even among the memorial’s allies that the budget may be unsustainable without a hefty government subsidy.

By comparison, the National Park Service budgeted $8.4 million this year to operate and

maintain Gettysburg National Military Park and $3.6 million for the monument that includes the USS Arizona Memorial at Pearl Harbor. Running Arlington National Cemetery, which has more than 14,000 graves and receives 4 million visitors a year, costs $45 million annually.

Officials at the 9/11 memorial say they face unique challenges that make comparisons to other national memorials difficult.

The foundation plans to spend at least a fifth of its operating budget, or about $12 million per year, on private security because of terrorism fears. Visitors to the memorial plaza pass through airport-like security, and armed guards patrol the grounds.

“The fact of the matter is that this was a place that was attacked twice,” said Joseph Daniels, the foundation’s president and chief executive.

Just operating the two massive fountains that mark the spots where the twin towers once stood will cost another $4.5 million to $5 million annually, said the

foundation’s spokesman, Michael Frazier.

Foundation officials didn’t respond to requests for information about other costs at the site, including the anticipated expense of running the museum, which is still unfinished and might not be anytime soon.

The museum was supposed to open this month, but construction all but ceased a year ago because of a funding squabble between the foundation and the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which owns the land the memorial sits on.

Daniels said it will take at least a year for the museum to open once construction resumes, meaning the site may not be fully complete until at least 2014.

The failure to open the museum on time has thrown off the foundation’s financial planning.

Officials had expected to use the museum, being built mostly with money from various government agencies, plus private donations, as its main source of revenue.

BAGHDAD — Iraq’s fugitive Sunni vice president was sentenced Sunday to death by hanging on charges he masterminded death squads against rivals in a terror trial that has fueled sectarian tensions in the country.

Underscoring the instability, insurgents unleashed an onslaught of bombings and shootings across Iraq, killing at least 92 people in one of the deadliest days this year.

It’s unlikely that the attacks in 13 cities were all timed to co- al-Hashemi incide with the afternoon verdict that capped a monthslong case against Vice President Tariq al-Hashemi, a longtime foe of Shiite Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki. Still, taken together, the violence and verdict could energize Sunni insurgents bent on returning Iraq to the brink of civil war by targeting Shiites and undermining the government.

Private school vaccine opt-outs rise SACRAMENTO, CALIF. — Parents who send their children to private schools in California are much more likely to opt out of immuniza-

tions than their public school counterparts, an Associated Press analysis has found, HEALTH and not even the recent re-emergence of whooping cough has halted the downward trajectory of vaccinations among these students.

The state surveys all schools with at least 10 kindergartners to determine how many have all the recommended immunizations. The AP analyzed that data and found the percentage of children in private schools who forego some or all vaccinations is more than two times greater than in public schools.

More troubling to public health officials is that the rate of children entering private schools without all of their shots jumped by 10 percent last year, while the opt-out figures held steady in public schools for the first time since 2004.

Medical tech spread hepatitis in 2008 PORTSMOUTH, N.H. — A New Hampshire attorney says a client contracted hepatitis C from a traveling hospital worker two years earlier than has been previously alleged he began spreading the disease.

Portsmouth attorney Michael Rainboth represents five patients who were al-

legedly infected by medical technician David Kwiatkowski, who’s been charged with tampering with needles and infecting at least 31 people.

Rainboth told the Portsmouth Herald that his newest client, a 65-year-old Vietnam veteran, was infected in 2008 at the Baltimore VA Medical Center and that the hospital is taking responsibility. Prosecutors have said the earliest evidence that Kwiatkowski tested positive for hepatitis C was in 2010.

Car bomb kills 17 in Syria strike AMMAN, JORDAN — A car bomb ripped through Syria’s largest city of Aleppo on Sunday, killing at least 17 people and wounding 40 in one of the main battlegrounds of the country’s civil war, state-run media said.

Al-Qaida-style bombings have become increasingly common in Syria, and Western officials say there is little doubt that Islamist extremists have made inroads in the country as instability has spread. But the main fighting force looking to oust President Bashar Assad is the Free Syrian Army, a group made up largely of defected Syrian soldiers.

Sunday’s blast came hours after a Jordanian militant leader linked to al-Qaida warned his extremist group will launch “deadly attacks” to help the rebels topple Assad.

Chicago teachers going on strike after talks fail CHICAGO (AP) — The Chicago Teachers Union said its members will go on strike today for the first time in 25 years.

The union says contract talks with the district failed late Sunday night over issues including benefits and job security.

“We will be on the (picket) line,” Chicago Teachers Union President Karen Lewis said Sunday night, calling it a difficult decision and one the union hoped could be avoided.

More than 26,000 teachers and support staff are expected to hit the picket lines this morning, while the school district and parents make plans for keeping students safe and occupied during the day.

School board President David Vitale announced a short time earlier that talks had broken off de-

spite the school board offering what he called a fair and responsible contract that would cover four years and cost the city $400 million.

Lewis said she believed talks would resume today, but a time had not been set for the sides to meet. She added that progress had been made but not enough to avert a strike.

The strike was announced after months of tense, and at times heated, talks between the city and the union representing 25,500 public school teachers.

The district, the third largest in the United States, had been offering a raise of 2 percent a year for four years. The union called that offer unacceptable — particularly after Mayor Rahm Emanuel last year canceled a previously negotiated 4 percent pay raise, citing bud-

get problems.

The union countered by asking for a 30 percent pay raise over two years, followed by a request for a 25 percent increase over two years. Just weeks ago, Lewis told delegates the union had adjusted its demand and was asking for a 19 percent pay raise in the contract’s first year.

The union also has raised concerns about raises based on teacher experience and education. It said the district agreed to retain contract language allowing raises based on experience, called step increases, but would not actually pay the money now.

Teachers also have been concerned about new teacher evaluations, health benefits and regaining lost jobs. An additional issue was how a longer school day for students is being implemented.

FDA warns Iowa egg firm about bacteria

The politics of believing in America

By Ben Feller Associated Press

WASHINGTON — After all this time running to lead America, Barack Obama and Mitt Romney are still trying to show they really believe in America.

Both men have made the election not just about the economy or even the American Dream, but about America itself. They see a nation pessimistic about itself and nervous about its future, hardly American traits.

They see political opportunity if they can come across as the one who gets what it means to be American, the guy who restores the glory.

What’s more, for reasons quietly tied to religion or race or family roots, Romney and Obama can never do enough to shore up their own American bona fides in voters’ minds.

This despite the fact that one of them will be the president next year, and one already is the president.

In the midst of their patriotic push, Obama and Romney have never overtly accused the other of being un-American.

But they spend no small amount of time raising doubts about the other’s belief in America’s promise, its workers, its resilience and its basic compact with its people.

PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA, LEFT, AND REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE MITT ROMNEY have made the election not just about the economy or even the American Dream, but about America itself. They see a nation pessimistic about itself and nervous about its future, and political opportunity as the one who gets what it means be American and restore the glory. Obama is pictured at a campaign event at the University of Iowa in Iowa City, and Romney is pictured at Lakeland Linder Regional Airport in Lakeland, Fla. Both talk about the goodness of Americans and the exceptional nature of America itself.

They rarely concede that the other candidate shares that view.

Obama and Romney, a former Massachusetts governor, have vastly different visions on how to create jobs and opportunity, and that contrast in governing philosophy is a defining choice for voters in November.

They often make it sound personal, too.

“I think this election will decide the soul of America,” Romney said while campaigning for the Republican nomination in April. “And I have a very different view of the soul of America.”

When Romney stood up at the GOP convention to accept the nomination, the theme of the night was on the giant screen behind him: “We Believe In America.” The sentiment is on the side of his campaign plane, too.

The suggestion is that the other party, led by Obama, does not believe in America, and that it’s chiefly Obama. He flies on an airplane, Air Force One, with “United States of America” on its side.

The “believe” part is implied.

In Obama’s acceptance speech at the Democratic convention, he framed the election as a choice of two visions. His was the one that would “restore the values” of America. The

other vision he offered was of a Romney presidency that dismisses the role of citizenship; the one in which, for example, it would be OK for children to breathe toxic pollution in the name of corporate progress, he said.

“You know what? That’s not who we are,” Obama said. “That’s not what this country is about.”

There is something to this nagging sense that America has lost its way.

Associated Press polling has not found a majority saying the nation is moving in the right direction since 2003. The richest nation on earth is divided over whether today’s children will have a better standard of living than their parents do.

Congress returns for pre-election session

By Andrew Taylor Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Fresh off a five-week vacation, lawmakers return to Washington today for a truncated pre-election session in which Congress will do what it often does best: punt problems to the future.

They face a slew of deadlines and the prospect of a debilitating “fiscal cliff” in January, yet are expected to take a pass on the big issues of taxes and spending cuts. Their focus seems to be on the bare minimum, preventing a government shutdown when the budget year ends Sept. 30.

Democrats controlling the Senate and their House GOP rivals also will also try to set up votes intended to score political points or paint the other side with an unflattering brush two months before the election.

Their efforts are sure to be overshadowed by the presidential campaign.

Topping the agenda of substantive business is a six-month temporary spending bill to finance the

More challenging is what to do with one of the most significant pieces of leftover business, a five-year farm bill. It would overhaul crop safety-net programs while funding the food stamp program. government’s day-to-day operations. The annual appropriations process on Capitol Hill collapsed about midway through the campaign season. The stopgap measure would give the next Congress time to fashion a full-year plan. There would be no more sure way of driving Congress’ approval ratings even lower than for lawmakers to stumble into a government shutdown right before the Nov. 6 vote.

House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., hope to present the measure this week, with a House vote as early as Thursday. The

measure also will ensure a steady flow of money into disaster aid accounts.

More challenging is what to do with one of the most significant pieces of leftover business, a fiveyear farm bill. It would overhaul crop safety-net programs while funding the food stamp program that now provides assistance to more than 46 million people.

The current farm act expires at the end of September. House Republican leaders are wary of bringing the bill to the floor. It now appears that Congress will at most opt for a temporary extension of the old bill, including drought aid for livestock producers whose assistance programs expired last year.

But it’s not certain lawmakers will do even that.

Without a formal extension, food stamp and other nutrition programs would continue to function beyond Sept. 30. Most farmers would not be affected because the current farm bill covers 2012 crops re-

Romney, Obama aim at swing voters on health care

By Jim Kuhnhenn and Thomas Beaumont Associated Press

BOSTON — With swing voters in his sights, Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney is tacking toward the center on health care and defense spending now that he’s put his final partisan hurdle behind him and the sprint to Nov. 6 is under way.

Romney said in an interview that aired Sunday that he would retain some popular parts of the 2010 health care law he has pledged to repeal, saying the features he would keep are common-sense measures in what he calls an otherwise costly, inefficient plan.

The former Massachusetts governor also faulted congressional Republicans for going along with the White House on a budget deal that has set up automatic spending cuts that include huge reductions in defense spending — a deal his running mate, Rep. Paul Ryan, helped steer.

Meanwhile, President

Barack Obama focused Floridians’ attention on the Republican ticket’s stand on Medicare, an issue that’s been more favorable to Democrats.

Romney’s campaign dismissed the idea that the comments were a lurch toward the middle now that the Republican convention, the last partisan event of the campaign, has passed, even as Romney was visiting the most competitive states on the election map.

“I’m not getting rid of all of health care reform. Of course, there are a number of things that I like in health care reform that I’m going to put in place,” Romney told NBC’s “Meet the Press” in an interview taped Friday and Saturday. He cited coverage for people with medical conditions and new insurance marketplaces.

Romney’s aides said that was consistent with his previous position that those who haven’t had a gap in coverage shouldn’t be denied coverage.

But the comments brought renewed attention to the similarities between Obama’s plan and the one Romney championed when he was Massachusetts governor, which included protections for health conditions and an individual mandate that the Republican has since railed against.

The GOP nominee, who attended church in Boston before debate practice sessions Sunday, didn’t offer specifics for how he’d deal with the affordability of insurance but suggested competition would help bring down costs. For seniors, Romney has called for restructuring Medicare by giving retirees a government payment that they would use to choose between traditional Medicare and private insurance.

Romney aides dismissed the idea that the candidate’s comments about the defense cuts or health care were an effort to appear less partisan with the race for undecided voters now under way.

The food and farm legislation has bedeviled House leaders because many GOP conservatives want deeper cuts to food stamps than Democrats, whose votes are needed to pass the measure, are willing to go for.

IOWA CITY, IOWA — A company that promised to clean up Iowa’s egg industry after a nationwide salmonella outbreak in 2010 said Friday that a recent government safety inspection discovered the bacteria in two of its barns and that it took steps to protect consumers.

Centrum Valley Farms said in a statement issued to The Associated Press that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration found the strain of bacteria known as salmonella heidelberg in two of six poultry houses that were tested at its production facility in

Clarion, Iowa, during a routine inspection in May. The company said that the presence of the bacteria in the barns did not mean any eggs were tainted, but that it nonetheless diverted an unspecified number from the market “in the interest of egg safety.”

The company said the eggs were withheld until they tested negative for the bacteria four times and were eventually approved for sale by the FDA. The plant is under strict oversight because it was one of several in northern Iowa implicated in the 2010 outbreak.

Teacher honor Everyone remembers their kindergarten teacher, and so will the students in Lauren Mitchell’s Kennedy School class.

I

t sounds like Lauren Mitchell deserves more than a $250 check.

Hopefully, she also gets some hugs and a lot of “thank yous” from her students and their parents.

Lauren is in her second year as a kindergarten teacher at Kennedy School. Last week, she was honored as the winner of the Lawrence school district’s Horizon Award, which is given to young teachers who show extraordinary promise. In nominating Mitchell, Kennedy Principal Cris Anderson said, “She inspires her fellow colleagues and goes the extra mile in sharing new and innovative teaching strategies.” School Superintendent Rick Doll described her as a “natural” teacher.

Even if you’re a “natural,” teaching is a hard job that takes a lot of thought and preparation. Too many young teachers are frustrated by a lack of support, recognition and monetary reward for the important job they do.

We offer our congratulations to Lauren and our best wishes for a long and satisfying teaching career. The monetary awards may not match the importance of the job you do, but everyone remembers their kindergarten teacher. You do make a difference.

Cost control The county’s move to control towing rates is a real service for local motorists.

T

hanks to the Douglas County Commission for moving forward on a plan to control the prices charged by towing companies who transport vehicles from an accident scene.

Last week, commissioners agreed in principle to a resolution that would place a ceiling on how much companies on its towing list can charge for basic towing services. The action was prompted by reports of unreasonably high towing bills received by local residents. When towing is required, the county’s policy has been to ask motorists if they have a preference about which company does the job. If not, emergency dispatch would simply call the next company on the county’s rotating list of about 10 area companies regardless of the charge. Earlier this year, the JournalWorld talked to a county resident who had paid $1,110 to have a minivan towed about six miles after an accident.

Under the county’s new plan, that tow would cost as little as $200. The resolution outlines maximum charges for basic towing as well as per-mile charges and vehicle storage. The proposal was formulated by an advisory panel, headed by Commissioner Jim Flory, that looked at similar policies in other Kansas cities and sought input from towing companies.

The plan is fair to companies and protects motorists who already are dealing with the stress of a traffic accident. It may not be the most important action the commission takes this year, but it is a positive step for county residents.

I’ve been trying to focus on what the political conventions reveal about future U.S. foreign policy. But I can’t keep my mind off Syria.

The reason? It’s not just because of the horrific carnage in that country (as juxtaposed to the endless hoopla in Tampa and Charlotte). It’s not just because I’m reading “Woman in the Crossfire,” the heartbreaking diary of Samar Yazbek, a Syrian who risked her life to document the regime’s brutal attacks on peaceful demonstrators.

The real reason I’m more attuned to news from Syria? The fighting there reveals more than convention speeches do about the enormous global changes that will confront the next president. And neither candidate has an adequate response.

Candidate positions vary Mitt Romney seems blind to the complexities of this new world, which makes it scary to imagine him in the White House. President Obama recognizes that we live in a new era in which America will often face challenges with no good solutions. Yet when confronted by bad and worse options — as in Syria — Obama sometimes seems unwilling to decide.

For many months, as Syrian civilians died, the Obama administration tried to promote a peaceful transition from the regime of Bashar al-Assad to an elected Syrian government. It supported former United Nations negotiator Kofi Annan, and urged Moscow to pressure its close ally Assad to step down. These efforts failed.

The White House rightly resisted calls by leading Republicans, such as Sen. John McCain, and some liberals to back a no-fly zone over a swath of Syrian territory

Mitt Romney seems blind to the complexities of this new world, which makes it scary to imagine him in the White House. President Obama recognizes that we live in a new era in which America will often face challenges with no good solutions.” along the border with Turkey. This would require a large-scale NATO air assault on Syrian air defenses, along with troops to defend the safe havens. It would not guarantee Assad’s fall.

Recently, Obama authorized nonlethal U.S. aid to the Syrian rebels. However, he has left it to the Gulf states to funnel money and weapons to rebel groups, though these funds go mainly to Islamists.

The administration has refused to pay for, or send, U.S. arms to the insurgents — including the antiaircraft weapons that could speed the end of the Assad regime.

This is a mistake.

Understandably, Obama was reluctant to get involved directly in another Mideast conflict, especially one as complex as that in Syria.

The disorganized opposition has been unable, despite intense U.S., Turkish, and Arab

League efforts, to produce an alternative political leadership that could replace Assad.

Without a clear political alternative, at least half the Syrian population — including Assad’s Alawite (Shiite) minority sect, many Christians and moderate Sunnis — fear the fall of Assad will lead to a regime headed by radical Sunni jihadis.

The White House worries that Assad’s defeat will precipitate a Shiite-Sunni bloodbath which could reverberate throughout the region. It also fears that any weapons it sends might fall into the hands of Arab jihadis who are now flocking to Syria.

Events may outrun fears However, events are outrunning Obama’s justifiable fears. The sectarian bloodbath has started, sending tens of thousands of refugees fleeing across the borders to Turkey, Jordan and Lebanon.

Those countries are looking to Washington for help.

What would the Romney team have done differently?

Romney’s advisers chastise Obama for wasting time seeking negotiations and “placating” Russia. Yet Obama was correct to pursue negotiations, given the awful choices Syria presented. Without a negotiated transition at some point, Assad’s fall will produce chaos rather than any semblance of democracy.

Moreover, even as the Syrian conflict rages, Romney is encouraging an Israeli attack on Iran if Tehran refuses to halt its suspect nuclear energy program. Some of the candidate’s advisers would even like Washington to do the bombing. Such an attack most probably would not halt Iran’s nuclear program, but it would undercut all efforts to oust Assad.

Obama’s hesitation to arm

the rebels (which Romney advocates) is also wrongheaded.

By outsourcing this task to the Saudis and the Qataris, the White House has guaranteed that weapons are more likely to go to religious extremists.

Surely by now the administration can identify more moderate fighting groups to whom to deliver weapons.

The longer the war continues, the more likely that extremists will shape the outcome. The United States, having failed to help the rebels directly, will have little or no influence on the outcome.

Iran future tied to Assad Ironically, the most effective way of curbing Iran without a bomb attack on Tehran would be to expedite the fall of Assad, Tehran’s only Arab ally. Iran sends weapons and trainers via Syria to the radical Shiite group Hezbollah in Lebanon, which threatens Israel with its missiles. Were the Iran-Syrian alliance to be cut, Tehran’s position in the region would be greatly weakened and Israel would get a reprieve.

So rather than rooting for an attack on Tehran, candidate Romney should focus on the best way to help Syrian rebels.

As for Obama, the only way to force Moscow to drop Assad is to give the rebels the antiaircraft missiles it needs to undermine him. Only then will Russia’s Vladimir Putin pull the plug.

Neither Romney’s bombast nor Obama’s hesitation can resolve the dangerous Syrian crisis. There may be no good alternatives in Syria, and no good endings. But the time has come to choose between bad and worse.

The facility was fully staffed with lifeguards as well as onsite supervisory personnel. It seems reasonable to think that the same staff could have been available two days later to work the Labor Day weekend.

Was the pool area staffed with lifeguards and personnel for the “Pooch Plunge”? How much in pool admission fees did we lose to surrounding area pools by not being open?

Several days before the start of Labor Day weekend, I attended a private swimming

In this time of idolatry, perverted sex, premeditated murder, greed, character assassination, killing of the unborn, political hatred, fiscal irresponsibility, etc. (see II Timothy 3:1-5 for an expanded list); Ephesians. 5:1516 says, “Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, making the best

use of the time, because the days are evil.” How do we walk wisely? We do it by following God’s righteous standards and trusting Him even in the worst of situations.

Why is this such a good choice? Because only He can fulfill the truth of Romans 8:28-29: “And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn among many brothers.” Why do we want to conform to the image of Jesus? Because it pleases God the father and is a witness of His love to others. That is how we deal with the evil of this age.

Can we do it in our own strength? No, as Jesus said in John 15:5: “I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.” Let’s be fruitful so that others may see our good works and glorify our Father in heaven (Matthew 5:16).

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Sept. 10, 1912: YEARS “Workmen digging AGO sewer ditches IN 1912 in Central Park this morning unearthed the human bones of a man believed by some of the old settlers to be those of one of Quantrell’s guerrilla band who was killed here in Lawrence at the time of that horrible event in Kansas history -- Quantrell’s raid on Lawrence. After almost fifty years of quiet in this secluded spot these bones were brought to the surface this morning. What a contrast and how singular that this relic of almost ancient times should be discovered in connection with the building of the biggest public improvement that has been made in Lawrence. When these bones were laid in that grave Lawrence was a heap of smoldering embers. What had been a prosperous little village had been wiped out. From this wreckage grew the present city of Lawrence.”

KANSAS ATHLETICS

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Don’t give up just yet A Kansas University victory, even an unimpressive one, against Rice would have guaranteed a sellout for Saturday’s 11 a.m. kickoff against TCU in Memorial Stadium.

Instead, Kansas reacted to late-game pressure about as well as Linda Blair’s stomach did to pea soup in “The Exorcist.”

Now the thinking is, it’s impossible to compete against TCU, so why bother going to the game?

Well, for one thing, nothing’s impossible. Kevin Costner can’t act even a little and has been paid tens of millions of dollars to act. William Shatner once thought he could do justice to Elton John’s “Rocket Man,” and millions have watched it on YouTube.

You too?

Just two years ago, Kansas defeated Georgia Tech one week after losing to North Dakota State. A year ago, in the midst of a 2-10 season loaded with lopsided losses, the Jayhawks took a three-touchdown lead into the fourth quarter against Baylor and Heisman Trophy winner Robert Griffin III. That would be the same RG3 who in his NFL debut Sunday averaged 12.3 yards per pass play, threw for 320 yards and two touchdowns and led his Washington Redskins to victory against Drew Brees and the New Orleans Saints.

It’s highly unlikely Kansas will upset TCU, but it’s not impossible. It’s too early to blow off the football team with 10 games remaining on the schedule.

Is it really such an ordeal to show up for a tailgate, eat great food, consume your favorite spirits, share the company of friends and exchange opinions on which players will get better through the course of the season, which will look worse against better competition and which just plain don’t have it?

Is it really a chore to sit outside for three hours with friends, watching Tony Pierson slither through small openings up the middle over and over and then bust a big one running outside? Pierson’s averaging 122 rushing yards a game, and Taylor Cox averages 100 rushing yards. It will be interesting to see which running back’s talents translate to better competition, when blowing open holes won’t come as easily for the offensive line.

Is the view of the hill really such a bad backdrop for three hours in the sun on a day in which the extended forecast calls for a high of 81 degrees and a zero-percent chance of rain (although rain’s not impossible; nothing is).

This team has problems — an inefficient passing game, a stagnant pass rush, a less-than-rugged run defense, a roster that’s a healthy snapper, plus one strong foot and 15 yards shy of a legitimate kicking game — but fan apathy this early in the season isn’t going to make things better.

Kansas has lost its last 11 against FBS foes and its last 12 Big 12 games. Those futility streaks likely will grow Saturday, but that doesn’t mean the number of witnesses has to shrink.

The winner is …

DIAMOND DIXON CONDUCTS AN INTERVIEW ON THE RED CARPET prior to entering the Lied Center on Sunday for the Rock Chalk Choice Awards. Dixon, a Kansas University track standout, and men’s basketball All-American Thomas Robinson were named athletes of the year during the ceremony.

Dixon, Robinson take top honors

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Thomas Robinson, the No. 5 overall pick in the 2012 NBA Draft, and Diamond Dixon, U.S. Olympic gold-medal winner in the 4x400 relay last month in London, claimed Kansas University men’s and women’s 2011-12 athletes of the year during Sunday’s Rock Chalk Choice Awards at Lied Center.

“I am excited. I was excited when I found out about this.

Tyshawn (Taylor) told me we were nominated. I was in town, and it’s another good reason to be here,” said the 6-foot-10, 240-pound Sacramento Kings rookie.

“I am still overwhelmed by it and everything that happened with it, how far we went,” Robinson added of his junior year in which he earned

first-team All-America honors after helping KU advance all the way to the NCAA title game. “My teammates are amazing. I miss those guys every day. I’m happy with last year and how it went and glad to be back (for several days).”

Robinson, who defeated Taylor and Robinson track sprinter Michael Stigler, was joined at the hourlong show — which had an Academy Awards-type format to it — by basketball teammates Christian Garrett, Elijah Johnson, Jordan Juenemann, Ben McLemore and Jeff Withey and assistant coach Kurtis Townsend. They

all accepted the “Rock Chalk Moment of the Year” award.

KU’s home overtime victory over Missouri beat out baseball’s home victory over Kansas State, women’s basketball’s win over Delaware to reach the NCAA Tournament Sweet 16 and tracksters Dixon and Andrea Geubelle winning NCAA Indoor track titles.

Robinson has been working out the last several days in Lawrence in preparation for the start of Kings training camp.

“Ground zero again,” he said of how he’s approaching being a rookie. “I’m starting back from ground zero, and we’ll see where we’re at the end of the year.”

Meanwhile, Diamond Dixon begins her junior year at KU coming off her gold-medal-winning effort in London.

“The year was great. I have a lot more work to do,” Dixon said.

She beat out athlete-of-theyear candidates Geubelle, Paris Daniels (track), Maggie Hull (softball) and Ingrid Vidal (soccer).

“I won (NCAA) Indoors last year (in 400) and didn’t do so well at nationals outdoors,” Dixon said. “It gives me a lot of strength to do better this year. This year is going to be a great year for us. We’ve got a lot of new and good people, and we’re ready to rock it.”

Of the Olympics, she noted: “It was nothing but an amazing experience. It basically set me up for what I need to do this year and the rest of my track career. It was awesome, hanging out with the Jamaican Please see AWARDS, page 3B

KU football plans to bounce back “

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

When a team comes up short in 27 of its last 33 games, losses have a way of becoming a little too familiar.

And while that may have been true for the bulk of Kansas University’s football roster during the past couple of seasons, the Jayhawks insist they’re a different team under first-year coach Charlie Weis, and that’s why they

don’t expect to let Saturday’s 25-24 home loss to Rice send them into a downward spiral.

“Nobody likes losing,” senior cornerback Greg Brown said. “We’ve been on the losing side quite often. But I feel like we have a positive mindset about this season. I can see it in everybody’s eyes.”

The way Weis painted it after Saturday’s game, the Jayhawks (1-1) have two options. They can work hard to bounce back and get better, or they can feel sorry

for themselves and get worse. KU’s leaders are betting on the former, and next week’s opponent — nationally ranked perennial powerhouse TCU at Memorial Stadium — demands it.

“We don’t have time to sit around and mope,” said quarterback Dayne Crist, who had a second straight sub-par outing against Rice.

“We’ve gotta move forward and get ready for TCU. That’s the most important thing right now.”

We don’t have time to sit around and mope.

We’ve gotta move forward and get ready for TCU.”

Las Vegas oddsmakers have pegged TCU as a 26.5-point favorite over the Jayhawks. Add to that the fact that the Horned Frogs figure to be fired up for their first ever Big 12 Conference game and are coming off a 56-0 romp over Grambling State in their season opener, and it’s obvious that, if they hope to compete, the Jayhawks will have to be much — Kansas senior sharper in Week 3. quarterback Dayne Crist Please see FOOTBALL, page 3B

Shorthanded Chiefs come up short, 40-24

REF MIKE SHEPHERD, LEFT, RUNS PAST Kansas City quarterback Matt Cassel following an interception in the second half of the Chiefs’ 40-24 loss to the Falcons on Sunday in Kansas City, Mo.

KANSAS CITY, MO. (AP) — The Chiefs were without their best pass rusher, their top coverage cornerback, a stalwart on the defensive line and a reliable safety who hardly ever misses a game.

Tough way to face the potent Atlanta Falcons in the season opener.

The rag-tag Kansas City defense couldn’t slow down Matt Ryan and Co. on Sunday, and the Chiefs offense couldn’t keep up. The result was a 40-24 defeat that was only close for a half.

“It’s only one game in a long season,” said Chiefs

quarterback Matt Cassel, who threw for 258 yards and contributed two touchdowns, but also committed three turnovers that led to points.

“We obviously have to make a lot of corrections and get better as a football team.

We’ve got to play collectively,” Cassel said. “We’ve got a lot of resilient guys in there.

We’re going to get back to work and get this thing fixed.”

The team doctors may be more valuable than the coaching staff in that respect.

Starting safety Kendrick Lewis (right shoulder), cor-

nerback Brandon Flowers (right heel) and defensive tackle Anthony Toribio (right ankle) were inactive due to injuries, while Pro Bowl pass rusher Tamba Hali was suspended for violating the league’s substanceabuse policy.

Little wonder Ryan threw for 299 yards and accounted for four touchdowns, or that Julio Jones caught six passes for 108 yards and two scores. Tony Gonzalez even added a TD catch in his return to Kansas City, just to Please see CHIEFS, page 3B

Serena rallies to win latest Slam NEW YORK (AP) — Finally tested, even trailing, at the U.S. Open, Serena Williams turned things around just in time.

Two points from defeat, Williams suddenly regained her composure and her strokes, coming back to win the last four games and beat Victoria Azarenka 6-2, 2-6, 7-5 on Sunday night for her fourth championship at Flushing Meadows and 15th Grand Slam title overall. “I honestly can’t believe I won. I really was preparing my runner-up speech, because I thought, ‘Man, she’s playing so great,’� Williams said during the trophy presentation after the 2-hour, 18-minute match, adding: “I’m really shocked.�

Might be the only one.

After all, what really was stunning was that the topranked Azarenka made things as interesting as they were, given that she came into the day 1-9 against Williams.

Add in that Williams hadn’t dropped a set in the tournament, losing only 19 games through six matches before Sunday. All part of a tremendous run she is putting together in reaction to her loss at the French Open in late May, the American’s only firstround exit in 49 career major tournaments. Since then, she is 26-1, winning Wimbledon and the London Olympics.

SERENA WILLIAMS REACTS AFTER BEATING VICTORIA AZARENKA, of Belarus, in the championship match at the 2012 U.S. Open on Sunday in New York.

There hadn’t been a threeset women’s final in New York since 1995, and Williams came through with a late charge to become the first woman to win Wimbledon and the U.S. Open in the same season since a decade ago, when — yes, that’s right — she did it. “She never gives up,� said Azarenka, who managed only 13 winners, 31 fewer than Williams. “She’s definitely the toughest player, mentally, there is and she’s got the power.�

While Azarenka, a 23-yearold from Belarus, doesn’t have

the name recognition or bona fides of Williams, she did win the Australian Open in January, and was 32-2 (a .941 winning percentage) on hard courts in 2012. She also hadn’t dropped a three-setter all season until Sunday, going 12-0 in matches that went the distance, including victories over defending U.S. Open champion Sam Stosur in the quarterfinals and 2006 champion Maria Sharapova in the semifinals.

Arkansas falls out of Top 25 after upset

By Ralph D. Russo Associated Press Football Writer

Arkansas took the plunge. The Razorbacks went from eighth in the AP college football poll to unranked after a 34-31 overtime loss to Louisiana-Monroe on Saturday night in Little Rock.

To make matters worse for the Razorbacks, star quarterback Tyler Wilson was knocked out of the game because of a possible concussion. And, oh by the way, Arkansas hosts Alabama Saturday.

The Crimson Tide held firm to the top spot in the rankings, followed by Southern California, LSU and Oregon. The top 10 was virtually unchanged, except for Arkansas.

The Razorbacks’ dive was the second-largest of any team to fall out of the Top 25, trailing only Michigan’s fall from preseason No. 5 after its historic loss to Appalachian State in the opening week of the 2007 season.

Moving up Collin Klein and Kansas State are demanding to be taken seriously — again.

The Wildcats were surprising upstarts last season, winning 10 games and getting to the Cotton Bowl after being picked to finish in the bottom half of the Big 12.

Kansas State won eight games by seven points or less. Luck or skill?

The Wildcats are making a case for the latter. Klein accounted for four touchdowns in a 52-13 victory over Miami in Manhattan. The rout moved them up six spots in the AP Top 25 to No. 15.

Moving down All the teams that moved down, also moved out. Joining Arkansas, were Wisconsin, Nebraska and Oklahoma State.

All three lost on the road, though none in a more startling fashion than the Badgers.

Wisconsin fell 10-7 at Oregon State, managing only 207 yards of offense.

Moving in No. 22 UCLA and No. 23 Tennessee are back in the rankings for the first time in four years.

McIlroy takes BMW title for back-to-back victories CARMEL, IND. — Rory McIlroy beat the strongest leaderboard in golf this year Sunday in the BMW Championship and joined some elite company.

McIlroy made back-to-back birdies around the turn to emerge from a four-way tie and seize control at Crooked Stick.

He closed with a 5-under 67, making his only bogey on the final hole when it no longer mattered, for a two-shot victory over Phil Mickelson and Lee Westwood.

Everyone knew Boy Wonder was a special player when he won the U.S. Open last summer McIlroy with a record score. The last month has established him as the dominant player in golf, with three wins in four tournaments loaded with the best players — the PGA Championship and two FedEx Cup playoff events.

McIlroy became the first player since Tiger Woods in 2009 to win in consecutive weeks on the PGA Tour, and with his sixth career win, joined Woods and Jack Nicklaus as the only players to win at least six times at age 23.

Woods was never seriously in the mix. Five shots behind with seven holes to play, he made three late birdies to tie for fourth with Robert Garrigus (69).

After they each parred the par-4 18th hole eight times in a playoff Sunday, darkness forced the suspension of play for the day. They will resume play this morning on the par-4 16th hole.

Creamer took a one-stroke lead into the final hole of regulation, but three-putted — missing a five-footer for par — for a bogey to fall into the playoff.

TULSA, OKLA. — Tulane football player Devon Walker’s fractured spine was stabilized in a three-hour surgery Sunday, though it’s too soon to tell whether he will be paralyzed from the injury he suffered while making a tackle, the team’s doctor said.

Dr. Greg Stewart, Tulane University’s director of sports medicine, said Walker was in stable condition and was expected to stay in the intensive care until of St. Francis Hospital in Tulsa for the next few days.

Walker was injured just before halftime in Saturday’s game against Tulsa when he and a teammate tackled a receiver, apparently smashing their helmets together.

NHL inches closer to lockout NEW YORK — After the first face-to-face meeting in a week between the NHL and the players’ association, the sides spent a relatively quiet weekend apart as the clock ticks down toward another potential lockout.

With less than a week remaining before the collective bargaining agreement between the league and the players runs out, no new negotiations took place after an informal return to the table Friday.

There was hope that negotiations would resume Saturday or Sunday, but the communication between the sides was limited to phone and email instead.

The current CBA expires Saturday, and Bettman has said the league will lock out the players if a deal isn’t reached by then. The preseason schedule is set to begin on Sept. 19, and the regular season is supposed to start on Oct. 11.

Kansas soccer edges ’Pack J-W Staff Reports

Junior forward Caroline Kastor picked up her second-consecutive twogoal match to help Kansas University to a 3-2 victory over North Carolina State on Sunday afternoon at the Jayhawk Soccer Complex.

The victory extended KU’s current unbeaten streak to six games and lifted Kansas to 6-1-1 on the season. The loss snapped N.C. State’s fivegame winning streak and dropped the Wolfpack to 5-3.

Kastor found the net twice in the second period on nearly identical goals just over one minute apart.

With the score tied at 1 in the 57th minute, a streaking Kastor found herself on the end of a Jamie Fletcher through

ball. Kastor flashed past the N.C. State defense and knocked in her sixth goal of the season past to push the Jayhawks ahead, 2-1.

With NCSU defense regrouping only a minute later, Kastor again shot down the right side and was found, this time by senior midfielder Whitney Berry on a long pass downfield. Kastor dribbled around a defender and Wolfpack goalkeeper Victoria Hopkins to chip in her second goal of the day and seventh of the season.

Kastor has now scored two goals in back-to-back games for the first time in her KU career.

In the first half, Berry started the scoring in the 26th minute with her third goal of the season.

KU will host Denver at 5 p.m. Friday.

SUMMARY

rub a little dirt in the Chiefs’ wounds.

“Simple and plain: They made plays, and we didn’t,” Chiefs cornerback Stanford Routt said.

Jamaal Charles had 87 yards rushing, and Tony Moeaki had three catches for 37 yards, both providing a bright spot for Kansas City. The pair of them, along with safety Eric Berry, played their first regular-season games since tearing their left ACLs last season.

They were a big reason why the Chiefs matched Atlanta most of the first half, trailing just 20-17 at the break. But a missed field goal by Ryan Succop early in the third quarter proved to be the turning point, and Atlanta scored 20 unanswered points to put the game away.

“We came out very quickly and strongly on offense,” Falcons coach Mike Smith said.

Straight talk... for 52 Years

KIEF’S

Weis expects his team to answer the bell.

“All those factors will help get their attention in a hurry,” Weis said. “My job will be to get everybody out of the tank. Hey, it’s easy to walk around after you’ve won a game.

Everyone’s telling you how great you are, congratulations. When you lose, it’s not so easy. It’s much more difficult.”

Sunday night, Weis said he saw several positive signs of progress during that afternoon’s practice.

“When you practice, that’s usually what does it,” Weis said of moving past a loss. “They were flying around really good. It was very competitive, and I think that’s the easiest way to get ’em going again.”

Following Saturday’s loss, Weis held the same demeanor he had throughout most of the preseason — calm, realistic, honest.

Heck, he even cracked a couple of jokes during the postgame news conference. The reason? Weis understood he was walking into a tough situation when he took the job at Kansas. He might not have expected to lose Saturday, but he knew there would be growing pains.

Weis said the blame for the loss trickled down throughout the entire team.

But it started with him.

“If you’re in my seat, you better sit there and be accountable yourself,” Weis said. “The bottom line is, everyone better accept their accountability, otherwise you’re never gonna make strides.

You’re always just gonna be just OK at best.”

Lyndon man ultra winner

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

From the looks of Darin Schneidewind, he’d had an extensive, rough Saturday night.

The 43-year-old Lyndon man sat at a Clinton Lake Park table shortly after sunrise Sunday, spent and disheveled. When he moved, he did so with the limberness of a man twice his age.

Too many beers the night before? No, that would have been the old Darin, who drank and ate whatever he pleased and couldn’t run to cross the street.

The new Darin, achy and bleary-eyed, was a few hours and a far-toobrief nap removed from winning the Hawk Hundred — a 100-mile trail race — in 20 hours, 20 minutes and 30 seconds.

Schneidewind hasn’t always spent his weekends racing from 6 a.m. one day to 2 a.m. the next.

His path to ultra running began with what he called a midlife crisis at 38.

Schneidewind weighed 235 pounds and began

DARIN SCHNEIDEWIND RESTS INSIDE A SHELTER at Clinton Lake Park after winning the Hawk Hundred trail race early Sunday morning. running to lessen the load he carried with him everywhere he went.

After deeming himself fit enough to run a marathon, he decided, “That wasn’t hard.”

A month later he signed up for his first 50-kilometer race, in which he finished third. About a yearand-a-half after making a health-conscious lifestyle change that included a drastically more healthy diet, Schneidewind had fallen in love with trail

running and competed in his first 100-miler.

Now more than three years into a steady schedule of ultra races, the 155-pound Schneidewind’s Hawk Hundred victory marked his second 100-mile title.

“I just kind of got addicted,” he said. “It’s basically what I do for a hobby now.”

He also has won a 40-miler and a 100K race at Clinton Lake, which he considers his home course.

HOOPS NOTEBOOK

Ottawa prep picks Duke

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Semi Ojeleye, a 6-foot-6 senior forward from Ottawa High, orally committed to play basketball at Duke during Sunday’s in-home visit with Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski.

Ojeleye, who is ranked No. 30 in the Class of 2013

by Rivals.com, also had Indiana, Stanford and Oregon on his list. Kansas University did not have Ojeleye on its recruiting list.

KU coach Bill Self had a pair of in-home visits scheduled Sunday. He visited with 6-foot Wichita North commit Conner Frankamp in the morning and was slated to visit with Chris Jones, a 5-11 point guard from Northwest Florida State College, in the evening.

Injury updates Weis received some good news regarding his team’s injury report Sunday. Only linebacker Prinz Kande appears to be in jeopardy of missing this week’s game against TCU. While a couple of other Jayhawks nursed minor injuries during Saturday’s loss, Kande was one of three players who had to be helped off the field, joining senior safety Lubbock Smith and senior wide receiver Kale Pick.

“Pick actually was way better than we thought he would be,” Weis said.

“The guy that’s most like" ly out is Kande. I think all KU is now recruiting those other guys have a Joel Embid, a 7-foot senior chance to play.” from Montverde (Fla.) Crist coming along?

not spoken to embattled Texas Tech coach Billy Gillispie for about a month. Gillispie is under fire at Texas Tech for allegedly practicing more hours than the NCAA allows and mistreatment of injured players.

“I do know that Billy is tough. I know that he only knows one way to do it, and that’s to be tougher, harder and more prepared than his opponent, period,” Self told ESPN. com. “To be honest with you, it’s a pretty successful method that a lot of coaches use. Billy’s different. He has his own motivating tactics.

“With Billy, you’re talking about a guy that’s gone from six wins to 24 wins (at UTEP). You’ve got a guy that has gone from zero conference wins (at Texas A&M) to the Sweet 16 in a short amount of time,” Self added. “He does have some experience doing it his way and doing it big. His way works.”

Self added ...

“Mistreatment of players should never occur, but there are also two sides to every story. That

certainly appears to be the case here, because after hearing from his enemies early, now we’ve heard from guys who say, ‘Oh, man, he was so hard on me, but I’m a better man for it.’

Including players in his current program. As far as making guys practice and play when they’re hurt, it’s unfathomable to me that the guy that I know would put anyone out there in harm’s way intentionally. I have a hard time believing he would do that.”

Of the practice-time issue, Self said: “When did it happen? Did it happen over Thanksgiving break?

Or did it happen when class was in session? If it happened over a break, then there’s absolutely no issue, because it’s totally legal. I do know that my players here think we practice a lot longer than we actually do. All players do. You could have a practice plan out there that says ‘96 minutes,’ and the players think, ‘Oh God, we’re going two-anda-half hours today.’ Sometimes you stay on schedule, sometimes you don’t.

But in their minds, everyone practices too long.”

Daiber won the Best Jayhawk in a Supporting Role award presented to an athlete “who demonstrates extraordinary sportsmanship, support and loyalty to teammates and Kansas athletics.” ! Football player Anthony Davis won the Crimson Climb Award, presented to an athlete “who has served as an inspiration by overcoming challenges and exceeding academic expectations.” ! Trackster Geubelle won the True Blue Award, presented to an athlete who “demonstrates an ability to excel in academics and athletics while advancing Kansas athletics on campus and in the com-

munity through participation in various student organizations and community service projects.” ! KU volleyball claimed back-to-back honors by posting the highest team GPA and also won the CHAMPS competition based on participation in personal development, community outreach, team GPA, Jayhawks Supporting Jayhawks, Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) and Jayrock.

The awards show, hosted by sports broadcaster Gary Bender, started with a special opening number highlighting the athletic accomplishments of the previous year.

Replacement refs draw criticism in openers GLENDALE, ARIZ. (AP) — Replacement officials in Sunday’s game between Arizona and Seattle made a mistake by awarding the Seahawks an extra timeout in the closing seconds.

Seahawks coach Pete Carroll called timeout with 30 seconds left, but the officials had announced two plays earlier Seattle used its last one when receiver Doug Baldwin was injured.

After huddling, then meeting with two different people from the sideline, the officials determined the previous stoppage had been on an incomplete pass, so the Seahawks were not charged with a timeout.

Under NFL rules, teams are required to use a timeout for an injured player in the final two minutes, whether the clock is running or not.

The mistake didn’t end up having an impact on

the game; Seattle failed to score on four plays inside Arizona’s 6-yard line as the Cardinals held on for a 20-16 win.

The NFL is using replacement officials while the regular officials are locked out.

In Green Bay, the replacement officials called a total of 18 penalties, some of them questionable and drawing animated complaints from both sidelines.

And in Cleveland, the Eagles converted a fourthand-1 on the winning drive after QB Michael Vick scrambled for 9 yards and fumbled on third down.

He recovered, but Browns coach Pat Shurmur threw his red challenge flag and asked the replacement officials to review the play.

However, referee Ken Roan discussed the play with the booth and announced it was “not challengeable.”

Dear Annie: Today, people throughout the world will observe World Suicide Prevention Day, an annual event co-sponsored by the International Association for Suicide Prevention (IASP) and the World Health Organization (WHO).

Suicide is one of the leading causes of death in the world. Approximately 1 million people worldwide die by suicide each year. This corresponds to one every 40 seconds.

The number of lives lost each year through suicide exceeds the number of deaths due to homicide and war combined. These figures do not include suicide attempts, which may be up to 20 times the number of deaths.

The economic costs associated with self-inflicted death or injuries are estimated to be in the billions of dollars a year.

The psychological and social impact of suicide on the family and com-

Annie’s Mailbox

Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell anniesmailbox@comcast.net

munity is staggering.

There is good news, though.

Organizations across the globe such as ours are making advances in suicide prevention research, understanding and outreach. Despite the complexity of this phenomenon, suicide can be prevented. There are many crisis centers throughout the world that offer support by phone, email, forums and chat.

Suicide prevention organizations, locally and across the world, are joining IASP in encouraging people to “light a

Seedy side of London exposed Encore imports the 2011 U.K. costume drama miniseries “The Crimson Petal and the White” (7p.m., concludes Tuesday).

“Downton Abbey,” it is not. Set in Victorian-era London, “Petal” explores the low places frequented by high society.

Married to the mad and fragile Agnes (Amanda Hale), perfume heir and failed writer William Rackham (Chris O’Dowd) takes up with the brilliant and self-taught prostitute Sugar (Romola Garai), a novelist in her own right.

Sugar composes violent fictions about every man who has ever entered her bedchamber.

She encourages William to channel his artistic temperament as a businessman, and soon he is successful and wealthy enough to set up Sugar as his exclusive assignation. But Sugar’s subsequent encounters with William’s unfortunate wife and all-but-ignored daughter have powerful implications for all concerned.

Viewers should be warned that the first five to 10 minutes of “Petal” seem more visually dazzling than coherent. One British critic likened them to a “bad laudanum dream.” Beautifully shot and artfully set-designed, “Petal” offers compelling viewing once it gets its bearings. Look for Gillian Anderson as Mrs. Castaway, Sugar’s madam, and Richard E. Grant as Agnes’ less-than-compassionate physician.

TV’s revolving door ushers out summer shows and welcomes the new. I wouldn’t be entirely honest if I claimed to know what constitutes winning on “Bachelor Pad” (7 p.m., ABC), but somebody’s going to do it on the twohour season-ender tonight. The spatulas also come to a rest on both “Hell’s Kitchen” (7 p.m., Fox) and “MasterChef” (8 p.m., Fox).

Meanwhile, “The Voice” (7 p.m., NBC) returns with blind auditions and lots of chair-swiveling. CBS offers viewers a half-hour peek on its “CBS Fall Preview” (7:30 p.m.), and NBC showcases two new sitcoms, “The New Normal” (9 p.m.) and “Go On” (9:30 p.m.), before they debut in their regular spots Tuesday night.

Tonight’s other highlights

Regina’s quickie ceremony causes chaos on “Switched at Birth” (7 p.m., ABC Family).

Parish’s agenda is exposed on “Alphas” (7 p.m., Syfy).

DNA links Rusty to the system on “Major Crimes” (8 p.m., TNT).

A woman racks up debt to buy clothes she can’t even store on the season premiere of “Hoarders” (8 p.m., A&E).

BIRTHDAYS World Golf Hall of Famer Arnold Palmer is 83. Singer Jose Feliciano is 67. Political commentator Bill O’Reilly is 63. Rock musician Joe Perry (Aerosmith) is 62.

Actress Amy Irving is 59. Movie director Chris Columbus is 54.

Actor Colin Firth is 52. Retired MLB All-Star pitcher Randy Johnson is 49. Actor Ryan Phillippe is 38.

candle near a window at 8 p.m.” on World Suicide Prevention Day — Monday, Sept. 10 — to show support for suicide prevention, to remember a lost loved one and for the survivors of suicide.

Please ask your readers for their kind support in lighting a candle and, if they are in distress, to call a helpline or crisis center. This information can be found on our website at www. iasp.info. Thank you. — Lanny Berman, Ph.D., ABPP, President, International Association for Suicide Prevention Dear Dr. Berman: We appreciate the opportunity to tell our readers about World Suicide Prevention Day. We hope they will light a candle near a window (although please not near flammable drapes or blinds) and remember those who have died. We also hope those in need will check your website.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Monday, Sept. 10: This year success seems to follow you. You finally achieve what you have wanted to for a long time. If you are single, you could see a change in the choices you make. If you are attached, the two of you express a love of entertaining.

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) You are an old hand at dealing with tension and/or power plays. An opportunity to show your expertise will arise. Tonight: Head home.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) Stay centered, even when dealing with difficult demands, and you’ll see certain situations in a new light. Communication stays active. Tonight: Meet friends for some munchies.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) Pull back, and make yourself aware of new possibilities. The unexpected occurs with a friend. Tonight: Treat yourself.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) You have an edge, no matter what you decide to deal with. Be direct with someone you have put on a pedestal. Tonight: Be yourself.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Know what is going on behind the scenes. Pressure builds as you run into a complication. Tonight: Vanish while you can.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Your sense of direction comes through, whether you are arguing or simply debating a key issue surrounding a project. Your words

jacquelinebigar.com

have power right now. Tonight: Hang out.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You might want to rethink a personal matter in order to avoid a collision. A partner, friend or associate could be explosive if challenged. Tonight: What you want.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You could be taken aback by someone’s resourcefulness. You need to think through a decision with more care. Tonight: Tap into your imagination.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Deal with someone directly. How you feel and where you go depends on the quality of your interaction with this person.

Tonight: Chat over dinner.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Emotions build, especially as you might find yourself unexpectedly in an either-or situation. Verbalize more of your thinking before you decide whether to keep others in your camp. Tonight: Walk in someone else’s shoes before you make a decision.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Focus on routine or daily issues, and you’ll come out way ahead. Do not question a decision so much. Sometimes your knee-jerk reaction takes you down the right path. Tonight: Relax; take a walk.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Your creativity remains high. A partner keeps feeding you new information, which creates fertile territory for new ideas. Tonight: Treat both yourself and a friend.

Dear Annie: I have been invited to the wedding of my co-worker’s daughter, whom I have never met. My co-worker has made it quite clear that he is expecting us to attend. At his first daughter’s wedding, he invited 20 co-workers and only one showed up.

He was very upset.

Am I obligated to attend? — RSVP Dear RSVP: You are not obligated to attend, although you might want to weigh that choice against Monday’s reaction at the office. While we don’t care for co-workers who pressure others to attend their personal events, consider whether he wants your presence or your presents.

Sites poke fun at Pinterest-inspired craft fails

BY HOLLY RAMER, ASSOCIATED PRESS

C

ONCORD, N.H. — For the aspiring cooks and crafters who frequent Pinterest.com, “pinning” something is one thing. “Nailing” it is another.

By letting users create “virtual pinboards,” Pinterest has become a popular way to keep track of home decor ideas, recipes and craft projects spread across the Internet. But those who go beyond collecting pretty pictures and actually attempt to recreate the crafts often discover it’s harder than it looks.

Such failures are featured to humorous effect on at least two sites, including Pintester.com and CraftFail.com. As the name implies, the former chronicle’s one woman’s dogged attempts to replicate recipes, fashion, beauty products and craft ideas she spots on Pinterest. The latter, which was launched before Pinterest existed, accepts submissions from anyone who has tried, and failed, at crafting of any kind.

Heather Mann of Salem, Ore., started CraftFail as a place to post her own failed projects away from her craft blog, Dollarstorecrafts.com. From her early posts about handmade soap that resembled Spam (”when you want to wash your hands with what appears to be potted meat”), the site has attracted hundreds of entries from fellow crafters willing to poke fun at themselves. Pinterest is now often the inspiration, or culprit, she said.

“With the popularity of Pinterest, a lot of new, inexperienced people are trying crafting. They see something on Pinterest that they like and they want to recreate it, and when they do, it doesn’t turn out the way they wanted it to,” she said.

Mann can tell a project is popular on Pinterest by how many failed versions of it arrive in her inbox. When a project that called for baking cupcakes in ice cream cones reached its peak, she was getting a submission every other week.

In May, she posted a round-up of “those pesky ice cream cone cupcakes of doom,” contrasting Betty Crocker’s perfectly formed, impeccably frosted cones with a collection of images showing cake

batter oozing out of the cones.

As on Pintester.com, the not-so-perfect pictures are often labeled with the tagline “NAILED IT.” But unlike Mann, Pintester’s Sonja Foust is decidedly un-crafty. Some readers have complained she’d have more success if she used the correct ingredients or materials.

“But this is how I really do it, even if I wasn’t publishing it on a blog,” she said.

“It’s not that I’m doing it just for the cheap laughs, I’m just really bad at this stuff.”

Even when she follows the instructions, failure is common. Take the “Strawberries and Cream Mug Cake.” The original version from babble.com’s The Family Kitchen blog shows a single serving of cake tucked into a dainty white mug, topped with a swirl of whipped cream and a scattering of strawberries. Foust’s blog shows a lumpy, spongy mess she pried out of the mug with a spoon.

“I was pretty surprised and sort of torn between being disappointed that it didn’t turn out and delighted that it was going to make a good blog post,” said Foust, who

lives in Durham, N.C., and writes romance novels in addition to her blog.

Despite her admitted lack of skills, Foust said she frequently attempted to make recipes and crafts she saw on Pinterest even before she had her blog.

“I have this disease where I look at something and think, ‘Oh, that looks really easy, I can do that!’” she joked.

Andrea Green knows the feeling. In fact, she said the words “I can do that!” out loud the first time she saw, on Pinterest, the custom mixed-media pieces made by artist Eleanor Mathis, who creates 3-D maps of states and other locations using wood, nails and string.

“All it is is nails and thread and a board.

How hard could it be?” said Green, of Lebanon, N.H. But in trying to make a modified version featuring her home state, she ran into some trouble early on when the board she purchased cracked in half before she even picked up her hammer. Undeterred, she started over and ended up pleased with the final result.

OFFBEAT OCCUPATIONS: Not the average 9-to-5

Ancient art of blacksmithing still in demand

BY ADAM STRUNK

H

Richard Gwin/Journal-World Photo

WALT HULL, who lives in Pleasant Grove south of Lawrence, has been a blacksmith for more than 15 years and creates fences, gates, tables and more from iron.

ammers clang and sparks fly.

Heat and smoke billow from the furnaces, making the summer weather outside of Walt Hull Iron Work, 802 E. 1250 Road, Lawrence, feel almost refreshing.

Not everyone would want to spend eight hours a day in such a place. Not everyone is a blacksmith like Walt Hull.

Hull makes his living with sweat, soot and steel. If it can be forged, he can make it: tools, benches, railings, sculptures.

“The first time I hit hot iron and saw it do something real, it was just like I took a new drug,” Hull said. “I knew I was going to do it again.”

Blacksmithing is an ancient profession, reaching back before the Romans and Greeks. But while the heydays of swords and horses are long past, Hull said the profession is far from dying.

“There’s probably more blacksmiths in the U.S. (now) than there were 50 years ago,” he said.

The profession has just taken on a more modern and decorative flair.

“Railings are our meat and potatoes,” Hull said. He added that his work is easily spotted outside Lawrence businesses: “It if looks old and it’s not, then I probably did it.”

Hull’s work is by turns tradesman, salesman, artist and architect. To make a railing, for instance, he must first measure and sketch the job.

“You try to sell what you want to make,” he said. “If not, make what he wants to buy.”

He then takes these sketches and begins work. Hull must understand how the metal bends, expands and stretches during the shaping process and the 2,200 degree heat that comes with it. A wrong measurement and the railing will not fit together properly.

Then there is the actual shaping of the metal to consider.

Hull makes his work look easy. He pulls a red hot piece of iron from the furnace and, with a few deft hammer strokes, it takes whatever shape he desires.

However, blacksmithing is a difficult art, something that becomes apparent watching Hull teach it to nine students from the Kansas University School of Urban Planning and Design.

With heating after reheating, the students hammered on their iron, struggling to achieve in 50 strokes what Hull did in 10. But the students lack Hull’s 20-plus years of experience.

Hull wasn’t always a blacksmith. He graduated from KU with degrees in English and linguistics. He then took a job at a steel company to get by.

Later, he wanted to shape metal on his own. Hull read books, made friends, went to gatherings and slowly but surely he learned the trade.

In 1982, he began blacksmithing in the shop he built next to his home. In 1994, he started doing it full time.

The walls of the shop are filled with tools, most of which Hull manufactured himself. He also built his own custom coal furnace, which he uses alongside his more modern gas furnaces. It gets hot in there, especially in the long denim clothes and leather apron Hull wears.

“I drink a lot of water,” he said, noting how important it is to stay hydrated.

The other important aspect about Hull’s job is efficiency. For Hull, each movement is tailored to require the least amount of effort.

“If you are doing this for eight hours, it makes sense to do this as lazily as you possibly can.”

And while the work is hard, hot and smoky, Hull wouldn’t have it any other way.

“It’s a hard way to do some things, but it’s the only way to do some things if you like the look,” he said.

“The first time I hit hot iron and saw it do something real, it was just like I took a new drug. I knew I was going to do it again.”

CABBAGE CONCOCTIONS Delicious/

DELICIOUS: Megan Stuke puts cabbage front and center at lunch or dinner in bierocks.

NUTRITIOUS

SARAH HENNING & MEGAN STUKE

C

abbage can take either center plate or a supporting role at dinner with this month’s recipes.

Delicious I think Sarah was a little surprised when I mentioned I’d like to have cabbage be our ingredient of choice this month.

Really? Cabbage? She’s a good sport and game for anything, so she played along.

I admit my motive was ulterior. We had a brief cool snap for a few days, and some rain, and it made me crave fall food. I had visions of chili, of chicken and noodles, and of bierocks.

Bierocks are an old German staple that, while fairly ubiquitous in the Midwest, are something of a mystery to many of my friends not from ‘round these parts.

Basically, they are a homemade hot pocket. And I love them. Dipped in a little good mustard, there’s not much I wouldn’t do to get my hands on one.

I suggested cabbage to Sarah for this month’s column so I’d have an excuse to devote a little time to crafting these homemade “Runzas” for my family and me to enjoy.

Bierocks are great because they make for an excellent sit-down dinner, but they can also be hand food — ideal for my husband, who packs his lunch but doesn’t have anywhere to sit and eat since he’s on the road all day. He can’t whip out a fork or spoon and doesn’t have access to a microwave, so a bierock is an excellent substitution for his usual midday turkey sandwich. It’s a perfect lunch for my meat-and-potatoes man.

You have to have some prep time set aside for these treats, but they’re not very

difficult. It’s just a matter of allowing time for dough to rise.

Start with the bread: 2 1/2 teaspoons yeast (roughly one packet) 1/2 cup warm water 2 tablespoons sugar 1/2 cup milk 2 tablespoons vegetable oil 1/4 tsp salt 2 eggs 4 cups flour Begin by “proofing” your yeast. Basically, you are making sure your yeast is good and active before you continue.

Combine the warm water and the yeast and walk away for five minutes. When you come back, the yeast should be bubbling a little.

Next, add the sugar and whisk together. Then add the rest of the ingredients.

I use my KitchenAid mixer with the dough hook, and the combining/kneading is short work.

If you don’t have one, just combine with your hands until the dough comes together, and then fold and knead a few times. It doesn’t take much kneading at all.

Set the dough aside in a fairly warm place and cover with a towel. Let it rise for an hour.

In the meantime, start your filling: 2 lbs hamburger 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon seasoning salt 1 teaspoon pepper 2 cups thinly sliced cabbage 1/2 c diced onion shredded cheddar, optional 1 egg, optional Brown the hamburger with the onion and drain off the grease, reserving 1 tablespoon.

Add the reserved grease and the cabbage to the skillet with the seasoning, and stir until the cabbage wilts a little bit.

When your dough has risen, punch it down, wait five minutes, and then halve it and roll it out.

Cut it into squares. Each half makes nine or 10 squares, depending how you cut it.

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

You will want a cup of water nearby with which to wet the edges of each square. I do it with my fingers, but you can use a pastry brush if you are fancy.

Just dampen all the way around a square, add a heaping spoonful of meat mixture, then pull up the opposite corners and seal the edges.

(Traditional bierocks do not have cheese, but I happen to like cheese, so I say, “Why not?” I usually sprinkle a little shredded cheddar atop my meat mixture before I seal it up.)

I like to do an egg wash on the tops of my bierocks, just for color, but it’s not necessary. If you want to do so, just beat an egg with a tablespoon of water in a small bowl. Again, I do this with my fingers but you could use a pastry brush.

Spread egg wash over the tops of the bierocks.

Bake them for 20 minutes or until the tops are lightly golden brown.

I serve them with mustard. You can make a “fancy” mustard dipping sauce if you are so inclined: 1/4 cup mustard 1 tablespoon mayonnaise 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder 1/4 teaspoon sugar salt and pepper I think this is a yummy addition to the bierock, but truly, a dollop of plain French’s is pretty hard to beat.

NUTRITIOUS As I kid, I actually loved cabbage.

I know this isn’t normal, because the smell, the taste, the just plain “cabbagyness” of it encourages many children to pinch their noses and run from the dinner table in a forfeiture of dessert.

But, honestly, when you learn about how I ate it, it’s not really a surprise that I loved it: boiled to utter blandness and smothered in butter. Though, it was the late ‘80s, so it was probably margarine, not butter, but you get the idea.

Cabbage was just a vehicle for butter.

Like bread. Smelly, smelly bread.

The fact is, I probably didn’t actually eat cabbage in any form other than a butter vehicle or coleslaw until I was 28 or so.

Of course, I’d had red cabbage as some sort of sad, shredded salad ingredient, but I didn’t really go out of my way to eat cabbage until I started getting a CSA share. That’s when I realized that cabbage could be more than just some stinky afterthought.

This dish is beautiful, healthy and so delicious you might forget about the rest of your dinner if you make it a side. Even my cabbage-hating husband gobbled it down. My son wasn’t a fan, declaring “I hate that smell, Mommy!” — but at least he agreed it’s pretty.

RED CABBAGE AND MUSTARD SAUTÉ WITH TART APPLES AND CHERRIES 7 cups shredded red cabbage (about

{5

1/2 one large head) 1 1/2 cups dried cherries (tart but sweetened) 2 medium Granny Smith apples 1 halved, thinly sliced sweet yellow onion 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil 2 tablespoons mirin (or other cooking wine) 2 tablespoons mustard seeds 2 tablespoons maple syrup 2 tablespoons apple cider (or apple juice) 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar In a sauce pan, sauté onion in the olive oil over medium heat until soft — about 5 minutes. Stir in cabbage, cherries and mirin. Keep stirring until the cabbage starts to soften, about another 3 to 5 minutes.

Remove the pan from the heat. Set aside.

In an unoiled skillet, toast the mustard seeds over low heat. Once they become fragrant (it should take a minute or two), add in the maple syrup, apple cider and apple cider vinegar. Remove the pan from the heat. Set aside. (The sauce will not be thick.)

While both pans are off the heat, core and thinly slice both apples (don’t peel).

When finished, add the apples to the pan containing the cabbage and put it back on the medium heat.

Pour the skillet sauce onto the cabbage and stir while it warms through.

Once warm, salt to taste and serve warm. Serves 6 to 8.

Have 10th-grade son retested for ADD

Double TAKE

Dear Dr. Wes and Katie: My relationship with my 10th-grade son has deteriorated. We can’t communicate, and he will not listen or obey. I don’t know if my pushy behavior is turning him off, but I can’t let up on my expectations.

He starts out motivated with wonderful words of what he is going to do. Then he fizzles out. Back in seventh grade in private school, the principal advanced him to eighth grade as long as he maintained a 75 average or better.

He did not turn in any assignments. He didn’t forget his homework; he just didn’t complete it because he said he was bored with the subject. So he was demoted.

The school psychologist tested him and said he does not have ADHD. How can I make sure this school year that all assignments are turned in while trying to allow him to be a 10th-grader?

DR. WES CRENSHAW AND KATIE GUYOT years in which proper treatment made a huge difference in the symptoms you describe. Please don’t hesitate to seek professional help for this young man.

As for school, create a reasonable system of rewards and consequences. Pay him for grades, or even for good effort. I don’t care what anyone says about “bribes,” incentives often get performance from recalcitrant students.

Next, set up an evening study time that is set in stone. The recommendation is 100 minutes per evening for a sophomore, with a couple of breaks if he has ADD. If he doesn’t bring home schoolwork, provide enrichment exercises for the allotted time.

Shut down all communication and gaming systems until he’s done the 100 minutes, but don’t make him go a minute longer.

Dr. Wes: Until I saw your son has been tested for Attention Deficit Disorder, that answer seemed obvious. Every symptom you name, plus others I had to edit out to fit the available space, scream ADD. It’s possible he’s depressed, but I’d want you to have a more thorough evaluation by a private psychologist before jumping to that conclusion. In that process, get a do-over of the ADD testing, preferably with someone who has expertise in treatment, not just testing.

People love to debate ADD, ignoring the body of science dating back 50 years saying it’s real, it’s serious and it impairs school and work performance.

Some people say it’s “overdiagnosed,” but the research says there are actually a lot of people going untreated, while others are treated who should not be. So in reality, ADD is often misdiagnosed or missed completely.

I’ve seen hundreds of cases over 20

Katie: I’m no expert on ADD, but I agree you should get your son re-evaluated for this or another condition. Depending on the diagnosis, treatment may help him bear the long days spent sitting at desks, both in school and at home.

As the current verdict stands, though, parental influence could be the best instrument you have in your toolbox.

I’d suggest the gentler side of that toolbox — the screwdriver, perhaps, not the hammer or the crowbar. We teenagers don’t tend to take criticism well, and it’s easy to confuse parental concern with personal attacks when we believe we’re being pried apart.

You can expect your son to fulfill his potential, but right now, your expectations are hitting a wall in his mind, and drilling harder isn’t going to tear it down.

Instead, try taking a step back and going at it from a direction that is more manageable for him. Perhaps long-term goals, such as getting a certain grade in a class, seem daunting, pointless or unrealistic to your son. So start small by focusing on each assignment individually.

He’ll need a structured, procrastinationfree environment at home during his study time. To fight boredom, don’t let that space seem like a jail cell. Call me a nerd, but providing stress balls to squeeze and snacks to munch on could help him focus.

You should present everything you do as a reward system instead of a prison sentence. You might say, “If you finish this essay, you can have an hour of free time,” not, “If you don’t finish this essay, there will be no video games tonight.”

When he turns in his assignments, make sure he knows you’re proud of him. He may not seem appreciative, and he might even roll his eyes, but secretly, teens thrive on positive reinforcement. Parents provide the unconditional support teenagers can fall back on in times of uncertainty.

PROTECT COMPUTER FILES Decide how to back up photos, presentations before it’s too late

BY ERIN HEGER ONLINE: See a video explaining what makes hard drives fail at LJWorld.com

W

hen Michael Readinger’s daughter’s laptop died, he thought she had lost everything — years worth of pictures, memories, and schoolwork erased.

“It’s like losing stuff in a fire or something,” Readinger said. “It’s just gone.”

His wife insisted on holding onto the computer, confident that someday someone would be able to recover what was lost. A couple years later, Readinger came across an advertisement for Dr. Dave Computer Repair Services, and a repairman was able to retrieve the files. The Readingers are thankful to have the photos back but now take precautions to prevent future catastrophes.

“We learned a huge lesson,” Readinger said. “We now use an external hard drive to back stuff up so we don’t lose everything.”

Like most people in today’s digital age, Readinger has put a lot of his life on his computer. From photos and documents to music and home videos, a personal computer is a lot more than a piece of technology. It’s a valuable storage facility.

“Living in the digital age, for most peo-

AN EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE is a cost-effective way to back up important computer files in case of hardware failure, theft, damage or accidental deletion.

THE INSIDE of a typical computer hard drive is shown.

“You have to expect that your computer is going to fail at some point. A good rule of thumb is to replace your computer every 3-5 years,” said David Greenbaum, owner of Dr. Dave Computer Repair Services.

ple all their important information is on a computer or some sort of electronic device,” said Nicholas Christensen, a counter intelligence agent for the Geek Squad at Best Buy. “You don’t realize how much you have to lose until it’s gone.”

For families, as was the case with the Readingers, some of the most valuable files on a computer are ones that can’t be replicated, such as photos and home videos.

“One aspect of my job that I really hate is giving people bad news and tell-

ing them they lost everything,” said David Greenbaum, owner of Dr. Dave Computer Repair Services. “They are usually the most upset about losing pictures.”

Photos aren’t the only valuable files on computers, however. For students, some of the most important information on a computer includes assignments, papers and research.

The Geek Squad in Lawrence sees a lot of hard drive issues and requests for data retrievals around the start of semesters and during finals.

“Around finals time we usually have a few people come in who don’t have a project or a paper backed up and then they’re computer goes out on them,” Christensen said. “People don’t normally think about backing them up until they’re gone.”

Files can vanish for a number of reasons including hard drive crashes, accidental deletion, theft or damage to the computer. While some data recovery experts are able retrieve files when a hard drive crashes, beta recovery can cost several thousand dollars.

“We always recommend backing everything up in advance and to keep an ongoing backup,” Christensen said.

At Best Buy, if the Geek Squad is not able to recover data at the store, they can send a computer off to a large repair center to do more in-depth recovery. The cost varies depending on the services required.

External hard drives are one way to backup computer files. They range in cost from $75 to $150, but compared to the $3,000 to $5,000 one might pay for recovery, an external hard drive is a cost effective method, Greenbaum said.

Another option when the hard drive

Help kids protect their electronic devices STATEPOINT

T

he technology used at school and at home by young people may be more expensive and sophisticated than in the past, but kids are still kids. Parents need to take steps to ensure their children make the most of their devices and protect their gear.

Here are some things to consider before letting kids take their technology out of the house:

Don’t opt for the most soupedup devices until you can trust your kids. Buy basic models first or buy used ones until your kids prove themselves responsible.

Consider extended warranties for valuable tech items.

Protective cases should be used whenever devices aren’t in use, especially when traveling to school and on family vacations. Save money and crashes is to buy a new computer and transfer the information. At Best Buy, the customer can do this at a discounted rate of about $100 to $150, Christensen said.

Online backup services, such as Carbonite, Mozy, CrashPlan, and Backblaze, are another way to backup computer files. Most of these services are about $50 per computer a year, with no limitations on how many files can be backed up.

Christensen said he would recommend using an external hard drive in addition to online backup services just to make sure the information is backed up in two places.

“Being prepared is the best of-

simplify with a universal case that allows for storage of cables and other accessories. For example, the iEssentials Universal Tablet Case Series works with the Apple iPad, Android based tablets, and all e-readers, including Kindle and Nook. This way, your child can use the case with any device — even those you haven’t yet bought!

Instill habits in your children like never leaving devices in the car, especially during extreme weather.

Teach children to lock devices in a safe place during the school day, and never to leave open drinks near tablets and e-readers.

Get extra cables and chargers.

Kids are prone to losing wires and accessories. To save money and time, choose a compact universal charger that works with all devices.

For example, the DigiPower CrossBrand Tablet Charger works on all fense,” he said. “We recommend getting an external hard drive and keeping everything backed up in at least two locations.”

Despite simple and cost effective backup solutions, some computer users need to be persuaded when it comes to taking the time and effort to back up files, Greenbaum said.

Some people perceive their chances of theft or damage to the computer to be pretty low.

That may be true, but even if nothing happens to the computer externally, all hard drives will eventually fail. Laptops in particular tend to see more hard drive issues because they are mobile, Christensen said.

USB-powered tablets from Apple, Samsung, HTC and BlackBerry.

Such chargers are ideal for use onthe-go so that active but potentially forgetful kids don’t end up with a low-battery dilemma.

Impress upon your children the value of their gadgets with simple math. If they receive an allowance, calculate how long it would take them to save up enough to replace the device themselves. Or calculate the number of chocolate bars a gadget is equal to in cost.

By putting it into terms they understand, they’ll be more likely to protect their technology.

Appeal to children’s sense of individuality to entice them to always use protective cases on pricey devices. Let your kid guard that gadget with a stylish case with a snazzy design of his or her choosing.

“A 3-year-old computer is like a car with 100,000 miles on it,” Greenbaum said. “You have to expect that your computer is going to fail at some point.

A good rule of thumb is to replace your computer every 3-5 years.”

Despite any inconveniences associated with backing up files, Readinger is adamant about backing up photos, documents, and other information, such as taxes. He backs up his files at least every two months.

“Computers age so quickly, so it’s important to keep that process up,” Readinger said. “If you get into the habit of doing it and you keep it up, someday it is going to make the difference for you.”

No time to work out? Try 4-minute Tabata

S

eptember should be a perfect month to amp up your fitness routine.

It’s a new season, it’s a new month, and for many of us, it’s the perfect time to start owning up to the resolutions that we have been secretly harboring: “When it gets cool, I’ll start running again,” “When the kids are in school, I’ll head back to the gym,” “I’ll start working out when the new month begins so I have a clean slate.” And so on and so forth.

Admit it. You’ve said these things, or at least things that are remotely close to this.

But I’ll be the first one to admit that the weather certainly isn’t cooperating with my new fall plan, and the gym seems to take an awful lot of time out of my day.

There’s the changing of clothes, and the drive and the inevitable chatting that occurs. And that’s all before the actual workout commences!

It’s no wonder that the most common excuse for not working out is the very simple and true, “I don’t have time.” And while that may very much be true, we all know that there is at least a small block of time where one can most certainly fit in some time to focus on exercise, health and wellness.

You can do an intense and challeng-

As I See

FIT JENNIFER OSBORN

ing workout in 4 minutes if you commit to giving it you’re all. Are you a doubting Thomas? Well, doubt no more. Get off the couch and welcome to the world of Tabata.

I’ve participated in and instructed interval classes and am a big fan of HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) for that cardio kick that is necessary for weight loss and cardiovascular health.

After all, almost every personal trainer and certified group fitness instructor will tell you that it’s necessary to engage in some steady-state cardio if you want to uncover that six pack that you just know is there.

But there’s that time issue arising again.

I am not trivializing this at all. I started a new job recently, am taking two graduate classes, training clients, teaching two fitness classes, writing this column and lest I forget the two elementary-aged children that simply need their mama …

Yes, I get that you are busy. And so with no further ado, here’s your workout salvation. You can thank me later.

Tabata in a nutshell: Choose two exercises — one cardio in nature and one involving strength training.

The best way to make this work is to install a free Tabata timer app on your phone. Then, for 20 seconds (20 SECONDS!) you will hit that cardio (think jumping jacks, high knees or burpees).

The timer will ring, and you will have 10 seconds to grab your weights or band and transition to the next 20 seconds of strength training (think squats with an overhead press, lunges with bicep curls, or front and side raises).

The timer will ring, and you will transition back to the cardio move.

You will do this for — are you ready for this? — 4 minutes. That’s it. That’s all.

A Tabata workout is a set of eight intervals, each lasting 20 seconds with a 10 second rest before repeating. The goal is to perform each interval at a high intensity level. Sounds easy, right? 20 seconds on, 10 seconds off, performed continuously eight times in a row.

From start to finish, you’re done in 4 minutes. Yes, you read that correctly.

Four minutes. We can do that. We can make that time. It’s easy.

I only left out the one very essential tip that will make this pay off for you in the manner that it should, and if you do this it will pay off in a big way: You MUST give those 4 minutes your best and your hardest. You MUST put everything that you have — all of your stress, all of your anger, all of your drive — into that 4 minutes.

YOU CAN DO THIS! Let me know how it goes. I’ll be pulling for you, all of the way.

Food co-ops bracing for arrival of giant rivals

BY JOHN MILLER, ASSOCIATED PRESS

B

OISE, IDAHO — The Boise Co-op eliminated thousands of slowselling items, sweeping away the claustrophobic effect that accompanied too many offerings. The Wheatsvile Food Co-op in Texas is opening its second store after 40 years.

And in California, the Davis Food Co-op turned to a designer to revamp its look.

It’s no coincidence food cooperatives across the U.S. are making big changes.

Many are preparing for the arrival of a Whole Foods or Trader Joe’s, two organicand specialty-food industry giants that are opening new stores nationwide.

Some co-ops are even dispatching camera-toting, intelligence-gathering crews to poach ideas from the big guys.

With demand for organic, natural and specialty food continuing to outpace other

segments in the grocery industry, co-ops say they must improve their stores, identify trends and appeal to a changing audience as the competition moves in.

Whole Foods Market Inc. aims to triple stores to 1,000, including in Boise and Davis, Calif.; German-owned Trader Joe’s is expanding, too, with a 19-city “comingsoon” list.

“Co-ops had it easy for years” when customers had few other places to go, said Robynn Shrader, head of the 125-member, 164-store National Cooperative Grocer’s Association. “It’s more complicated being a retailer today.”

The modern co-op movement dates back to the 1970s, when customer-owned food stores — including in Boise, Davis, Calif., and Austin, Texas — were organized to provide an alternative to national grocery chains.

Despite typically higher prices, shoppers often feel as if they’re buying more than groceries, that they are supporting a lifestyle.

They emphasize community roots and, though they’ve evolved from when nearly everything came in big bulk bins, they still stock an average of 20 percent local products, compared to 6 percent at conventional stores, according to a study released in August by Shrader’s group. About 80 percent of co-ops’ produce is organic, compared with 12 percent for conventional grocers.

Over the years, demand for natural, organic foods has only grown. The Organic Trade Association reports 2011 sales rose 9 percent to $31.4 billion.

Brent Hueth, director of the Center for Cooperatives at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, said he’d expected an increasingly crowded landscape of organic purveyors, including from conventional stores, to be tougher on co-ops.

That hasn’t materialized. “Demand is growing faster than supply,” Hueth said.

“It’s not saturated yet.”

Even so, some co-ops have been hurt.

In West Des Moines, Iowa, for instance, the Tall Grass Grocery Co-op closed in August, a year after opening and a month after Whole Foods’ arrival.

At the 40-year-old Davis Food Co-Op in Davis, sales slipped 7 percent after Trader Joe’s October 2010 opening, forcing wage freezes and retirement-plan cuts, manager Eric Stromberg said.

Though revenue has recovered, Whole Foods opens in October in this university town near Sacramento, so additional measures are planned to navigate another dip.

“Honestly, the emotion I felt was anger,” he said. “I worked really hard to give our employees good benefits. And I hate to see that nibbled away.”

But Joe Rogoff, Whole Foods’ Seattlebased manager for Northwest stores, insisted the Austin-based retailer isn’t trying to muscle out smaller rivals. Rather, he hoped it turns on a whole new audience to natural, organic food.

Growing up with Yom Kippur Y

om Kippur is the Jewish day of atonement, a day marked by fasting and long hours in the synagogue, the most solemn day of the liturgical calendar. Starting when I was about 8, it became my favorite Jewish holiday.

Which is, when you think about it, weird. No food, no gifts, no storytelling, no dreidels, no menorahs, no dancing with the Torah … no fun! What’s there for a kid to like about a day with no fun?

Everybody who talks about Yom Kippur talks about the fast (roughly 26 hours without food or liquid). Which is why I’m going to talk about something else, the relief of a day without fun, the relief of a day in which, in the strongest terms, we are reminded of two truths: Everybody does things they shouldn’t do, and everybody dies.

Jewish services can be long and repetitive, none more so than on Yom Kippur.

Among its many prayers, three are particularly striking: the short confessional

Everyday

LIFE JUDITH ROITMAN

(Ashamnu), the long confessional (Al Chet) and the recitation of all the ways we can die (B’Rosh Hashanah) with its reminder that we don’t get to choose. All of

which are repeated several times, while, during the confessionals, we strike our hearts in repentance.

Does that sound gloomy? It’s not. It’s a relief. And I think that’s what I responded to as a child.

Think of how much energy each of us spends trying to pretend that the lousy thing we did was really OK, and that the lousy thing our friend did had nothing to do with us. It’s such a relief to say, “For the sin which we have sinned before You through [insert description here — there are 44 of them, over half of which are about speech] … forgive us, pardon us, grant us atonement.”

You can’t wiggle out of these opportunities to sin. They are completely ordinary: foolish speech, scorning, arrogance ….

Life is a minefield, and nobody can avoid stepping on at least some mines.

Furthermore, the pronoun is plural.

Maybe I didn’t do a particular thing, but for sure somebody I know did. We are re-

sponsible for each other. We can’t stand by and say “not my business.”

And then there’s the list of ways to die: fire, water, sword, beasts, famine, thirst …

(Leonard Cohen’s song “Who By Fire” has its source here). You can avoid thinking about death, but sooner or later death will find you. Why pretend otherwise?

It’s a great relief to spend an entire day focused on inevitable stuff that you usually pretend isn’t there.

At the end of Yom Kippur, the imagery focuses on the closing of the gates of judgment as night falls. God is writing our fates, and soon they will be sealed.

Since night falls at different times in different places, I don’t take this literally.

But the urgency of the moment greatly impressed me when I was young. It still does. Why not take this urgency into the rest of our lives?

— Ashley Snyder, Lawrence White House/Black Market manager

New store generating buzz downtown Women seeking professional work wear excited for White House/Black Market

E

arlier this summer, all of my lady friends in their 30s and 40s started overwhelming my Facebook news feed about a new clothing store coming to downtown.

Posts expressing unbridled joy at the prospect of the store White House/Black Market opening in the space formerly occupied by House Parts, 714 Mass., flooded my news stream.

Beyond social media, multiple women have brought the store opening up in conversation. Before the store opened, a group of ladies approached me at church and asked if I knew where it would be located. Then, as I sat outside a coffee shop on Mass. Street a couple days after it opened, multiple pairs of women walked by, talking about the store.

Besides the reopening of Dillons on Mass. Street, I had never encountered such enthusiasm for a new business.

And to be honest, I have never been in a White House/Black Market before. In fact,

I barely knew what it sold.

So I did some research. As it turns out, White House/Black Market sells business casual clothing catered to women in their 30s and 40s, but they have clothes fit for women in their 20s all the way up to women in their 80s.

And, not surprisingly, most of their clothes fit into one of two color categories: white or black.

The store is the lovechild of two stores, appropriately and separately named The White House and Black Market. The White House sold white clothing; Black Market focused on black. The merging of the two isn’t as serendipitous as it seems, though. The same people owned the two stores.

White House/Black Market also has regional store locations in Leawood, Overland Park and Kansas City, Mo. Lawrence’s store manager, Ashley Snyder, believes an opening in Lawrence was an appropriate next step.

“There are not a lot of options for career women in Lawrence. There are very few options for work wear. Also, there aren’t a lot of competitors in Lawrence as far as quality of clothing goes,” Snyder said.

While I usually write about local shops in Lawrence, this store warranted an exception simply because of the excitement about it from local ladies.

When I asked these women why they were so excited about this store coming to town, they answered identically — to Snyder and to each other: “There just aren’t many stores for women in their 30s.”

I guess this should tell other brands something important: Build a store for women traversing the murky waters of youth and adulthood, and they’ll love you forever.

I wandered into White House/Black Market a couple days after it opened and fell a little bit in love. It could have been the free cupcake, the “$20 off an $80 purchase” coupon, or the sweet sales associ-

ates that did it for me, but I honestly think it was the clothes. It’s nice to see a store that consistently and uniquely creates well-made, age-appropriate clothes.

However, expect to pay some ageappropriate (read: adult) prices for the clothes sold here. Both the skirt and the dress that caught my eye cost around $120. According to Snyder, the prices are well justified.

“Our level of service is fantastic. We have personal stylists who help women find clothes that will make them feel beautiful. We give such good service and quality because we focus on women and their experience in our store. Our actual motto is, ‘Feel beautiful,’” Snyder said.

White House/Black Market is open from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Saturday and from noon to 6 p.m. Sunday.

Runner’s knee

Introducing the NEW

HYDRATING BARE MINERALS

River City Jules

Ready SPF 20 Foundation Now available at Eccentricity!

I

have never considered myself a runner.

Most likely this is because I do not run.

I have always been secretly jealous of them, though: ponytails swaying in rhythm behind them, iPods shuffling Journey, Queen and “Eye of the Tiger.”

So smitten with the idea of running have I been that I bought a pair of running shoes, three running skirts and four tank tops with built-in jog bras. A still shot taken of me at just the right angle might even fool nonrunners into thinking I am one.

But the truth is I just dress the part so I can run errands in comfortable shoes.

“Oh, I’m such a mess,” I tell people, “I’m on my way to work out.”

No one has to know “work out” is a euphemism for vacuum and read magazines.

This past spring, though, I decided the running skirt might fit better if I started using it for actual running. I had read (in a magazine) that a one-mile sprint a few times weekly would provide a significant cardiac health and metabolism boost that sitting would not.

So I laced up the shoes and faithfully, at least eight times over two months, jogged a 1.1-mile loop around our block. My ponytail swayed in rhythm while I gasped for air and cursed to the beat of “Survivor” as I worked my way to a 9-minute mile and a stabbing pain under my left kneecap.

I gave myself the summer off to heal, but the damage had been done. And the first week of school, I made an appointment with a sports medicine physician because that is who we athletes see when we are injured.

I detailed my workout regimen to the doctor as he rotated my legs around my hip socket and bent my legs like a frog, asking me over and over again if anything

hurt. It reminded me of the game our son likes to play with his sisters, both trying to create pain, but only one of the two with the medical degree to justify it.

Finally he succeeded in recreating the sensation of a knife entering and exiting under the patella. A brief, but sick and twisted, smile flickered across his face as he watched me jump from the table to the ceiling in pain.

“You have runner’s knee,” he remarked triumphantly.

“Does this mean I am a runner?” I asked.

“It means that running has worn down the protective coating around the joint and caused you pain,” he clarified.

“So, would you agree then,” I began, drawing correlations based on the human biology degree I earned so very long ago, “that my sedentary lifestyle prolonged the life of my knee, allowing it to remain intact for 40 years?”

My doctor and I have differing theories about the contribution my sedentary lifestyle made to my joint health, but we are in agreement that I most definitely have a running injury, which, in my opinion, is just as much proof as a medal that I, now, am a runner.

Over time the seal between the pipe and the roof begins to fail and this creates a potential for serious water damage.

Install a vent pipe flashing

M

ost homes have several vent pipes protruding from various spots along the roofline. Some of these are bathroom or sewer vents, while others are for hot water heaters, furnaces or other home appliances.

Regardless of their purpose, over time the seal between the pipe and the roof begins to fail and this creates a potential for serious water damage. Installing a premade roof flashing can prevent or end this type of damage.

Step 1: Roof flashings are sized according to the inside diameter of the vent pipe.

Measure the pipe opening to determine the correct size.

Also note the pitch of the roof where the flashing is to be installed. The pitch of any roof is the number of inches it drops vertically for every 12 inches it extends horizontally. To determine the pitch of a roof, mark a spot 12 inches from the end of a level. Set the bottom corner of the level on the roof and extend the level out over the roof, allowing the center gauge to read perfectly level.

Use a measuring stick to measure the distance from the 12-inch mark on the level to the roof directly below it. The number of inches the roof drops is the numeric roof pitch.

Step 2: Choose a flashing style both for

aesthetics and durability. Galvanized or aluminum flashings with rubberized collars are durable and easy to install but may not be aesthetically pleasing on a black shingled roof. Polypropylene flashings are aesthetically pleasing on dark roofs, but may be considered an eyesore on light-colored roofs. Check the pipe size, roof pitch and temperature rating before making any purchase.

Step 3: Remove as much of the old flashing material as necessary to allow for an unobstructed seal on the new roof flashing.

Step 4: Apply several beads of silicone caulk to the underside of the new roof flashing.

Step 5: Slide the flashing collar over the vent pipe with the larger side of the flashing base on the upside of the roof. Visually align the flashing to correspond with the roof pitch.

Step 6: Slide the flashing down toward the roof and tuck the upper edge of the flashing beneath the shingles located on the upper side of the vent pipe.

Step 7: Firmly press the flashing into place, allowing the downside edge to rest on top of the shingles. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Linda Cottin can be reached at go@ljworld.com.

Lady Gaga’s meat dress in DC museum

BY BRETT ZONGKER, ASSOCIATED PRESS

W

ASHINGTON — Lady Gaga’s famous meat dress has made its way to the nation’s capital, along with Loretta Lynn’s song about “The Pill” and other relics from music history.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland is opening a national tour for an exhibit about pioneering women in rock ‘n’ roll, tracing the evolution of women artists and their impact on music. It opened Friday at the National Museum of Women in the Arts.

Curator Meredith Rutledge-Borger told The Associated Press the exhibit, “Women Who Rock: Vision, Passion, Power” is inherently political, in part, as it highlights many “first ladies of rock” who have spoken loud and clear on women’s rights, gay rights and other issues through their music.

“This really is the center of our political life,” Rutledge-Borger said during the Washington opening. “Bringing this exhibit here kind of redefines what’s

important in our history and political life … at a time when there’s talk of women being under attack in politics.”

More than 250 artifacts represent 70 women who were “engines of change and creativity,” she said, each helping to redefine who could make rock ‘n’ roll. It features items from Cher, the B-52s, Donna Summer, Stevie Nicks, Cyndi Lauper and Madonna’s provocative outfit from her “Blonde Ambition” tour. Other items date back to jazz singer Billie Holiday, first blues recording artists Bessie Smith and Ma Rainey and country music trailblazer Mother Maybelle Carter.

Lynn’s country song, “The Pill,” was considered so controversial in 1975 that her record label delayed its release for three years. Lynn later recounted that doctors told her the tune was pivotal in rural acceptance of birth control.

“We really wanted to make sure this wasn’t just a fashion show,” Rutledge-Borger said. “We wanted to showcase these artists as musicians.”

For the National Museum of Women in the Arts, it’s the first exhibit to feature women performing artists, said chief curator Kathryn Wat. Gaga’s dress from the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards — now dried, preserved and painted to restore its original raw meat color — is being shown in its political context.

When Gaga wore the dress, she was accompanied by U.S. soldiers impacted by the “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy to protest the ban on gays serving openly in the military. She explained that if people don’t stand up for their rights, “pretty soon we’re going to have as much rights as the meat on our own bones. And I am not a piece of meat.”

Beyond the dress’s shock value, Gaga’s push for inclusion of gays or anyone else who is different helped cement her place as a pioneer, said Rutledge-Borger.

“If you dig a little deeper, there’s this important message of inclusion and family,” she said. “That to me is really why she’s so powerful.”
