While visiting the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum, William Bill Stahl was thanked for his service in the U.S. military. Shortly after the woman there spoke, he leaned toward his daughter Marsha Mechtley. Do you think I should tell her what a poor shot I was, Stahl said with smile. Bill was one of several veterans who recently travelled to Washington D.C. for the Kansas Honor Flight program. The trip allows the vets to see memorials built in their honor. It was great, Bill said during an interview earlier this week. We had a real good time. Bill was nominated for the trip by Junction City Commissioner Jim Sands. As a teenager, Bill fought for his country and for the freedom of others. But on a cold wintery day in Europe his freedom was snatched from him. Born in 1925, Bill was raised in Junction City by his father Edward Stahl, a Union Pacific railroader and his mother, Reta. He

But Bill and his comrade-in-arms were ready. They knew what they were fighting for. We were very patriotic ..., Bill said. He received military training at Fort Carson in Colorado and became a machine gun operator for the 106th Division, carrying ammunition. In World War II, Bill went behind enemy lines

to scout or spy. It was dangerous and Bill was by himself. During that time, Bill had no idea he would be in the middle of The Battle of the Bulge, one of the costliest battles for the armed forces. It started Dec. 16, 1944, when the German army attacked for Adolf Hitlers last bid to reverse the victory of D-Day and Americas allied forces invading northern France. The Germans were trying to take St. Vith, Belgium, and its networks of roads. Bill and his comrades were surrounded. But they kept fighting. Please see Honor, 10A

Before the community forum kicks off at noon Aug. 29, the chamber will host a free session at 10:30 a.m. specifically with governing bodies in mind. The meeting, which will be held in the lower level lobby of the C.L. Hoover Opera House, will focus on ways to effectively operate a governing body or board of directors. Kansas State University Geary County Extension Agent Chuck Otte will facilitate the session. Chamber Activities Director Nikki Davies said many people already have shown interest. Weve actually had a lot of feedback from folks that are just interested in what they (the facilitators) have to say, she said. Though the session is focused on board governance, the event is open to the public.

A recent discharge of water from the citys southwest water treatment plant into the Smoky Hill River has caused some concerns for health officials. On Friday morning, the Kansas Department of Health and Environment reported via Twitter the city issued a public health advisory for the Smoky Hill and Kansas rivers due to elevated levels of bacteria. The advisory states that people, livestock and other animals should limit contact with the Smoky Hill River downstream of Junction City and the Kansas River until further notice. The advisory extends through the portion of the Smoky Hill River that combines to form the Kansas River and the Kansas River

to the Missouri line. Junction City Public Works Director Greg McCaffery told The Daily Union Friday afternoon the discharge into the Smoky River on Thursday morning was partially-treated water. McCaffery said the wastewater went through the primary and secondary treatments, but was not treated in the final chlorination stage, which kills the rest of the bacteria in the water. A pump malfunction in that part of the treatment plant resulted in the water being discharged without the remaining bacteria being removed. McCaffery said the bacteria numbers are elevated and the health departments are very precautious when it comes to situations such as these.

Combat brigade soldiers making a difference in Africa


Commander talks about mission
B y L isa S eiser

m.editor@thedailyunion.net
Col. Jeffrey Broadwater is apologetic for rattling the windows every time his 2nd Armored Brigade Combat Team heads out to train in the open spaces at Fort Riley. But it is necessary. That is what we have to do to prepare for this global availability that we must be ready in the case the brigade is deployed for that, Broadwater told those in attendance at Thursdays Military Affairs Council breakfast. Recent noise at Fort Riley as well as the window rattling and explosions in winter also were courtesy of Broadwaters soldiers. In the coming months, they will be out again firing the tanks and working the fighting vehicles. However, Broadwater wasnt there to talk about those booms and blasts in preparation for deployment to fighting zones. Instead, Broadwater focused his discussion on his brigades mission in Africa. United States Africa Command, in concert with interagency and international partners, builds defense capabilities, responds to crisis, and deters and defeats transnational threats in order to advance U.S. national interests and promote regional security, stability, and prosperity.

Harley is a five-month-old Shepherd mix. He is very friendly and loves to play.

IZZIE
Izzie is a one- to two-year-old female Terrier mix. She has lots of energy and needs children to play with.

ATHENA
Athena is a two- to three-yearold Brindle and Terrier mix. She is very timid, but is very sweet.

Broadwater talked about the brigade being regionally alligned, which he said is the first in the Army and means they have two missions ones like AFRICOM, but also to be ready for any war fighting deployment. We have to be ready to execute any mission, he said. Focusing on the AFRICOM mission, Broadwater said recently there was an operation in which 37 percent of his brigade was on the continent of Africa, a total of 1,500. He said that is the largest number that have been there from Fort Riley, but it is scaleable and different then when an entire brigade is typically deployed for war fighting. During this operation, which also included the Navy, Air Force and Marines, Fort Rileys contingency commanded some operations. However, Broadwater was quick to point out the South African Army took the lead in many facets. He said all that is done by the US military and other countries on the continent must be in line with what the host nation desires. Significant preparations come into play before soldiers head to the continent of Africa. The training is called Dagger University. Thats where the soldiers receive information on the countries they are

JCMC building inspection reveals mold problems


city.beat@thedailyunion.net
A mold remediation companys findings published in a recent report after inspecting the Junction City Municipal Court building arent pretty. A report from American Metropolitan Environmental states the companys inspection revealed both active water intrusion though the roofing system and visible fungal growth identified on various building materials within the offices and rooms along the east side of the building. Municipal Court has been housed at 701 N. Jefferson St., the old Junction City Area Chamber of Commerce Offices, since Aug. 2. The current, 70-year-old facility, located at 225 W. Seventh was closed following the discovery of a serious mold problem. The fungal growth, suspected to be some type of mold, could pose a health risk to courthouse employees and visitors. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), molds are very common in buildings and homes, growing where there is moisture. Mold exposure does not always cause health problems, though some people are more sensitive to molds. Symptoms of mold exposure can include skin irritation, nasal stuffiness, eye irritation and wheezing. Severe reactions among people exposed to large amounts of mold may include fever and shortness of breath. Individuals with weakened immune systems and chronic lung diseases are at an increased risk for fungal infections. The greenish-black Stachybotrys chartarum, or black mold, is less common though not rare, according to the CDC. Black mold grows where constant moisture is present. For the most part, the CDC advises black mold be treated and removed like any other mold, noting its not necessarily more dangerous. Though the report doesnt state what type of mold was found, it doesnt mince words in describing its findings. Upon entering the waiting room from the front of the building, the report notes a strong, pungent, musty odor indicating the pre-existing fungal growth. The report also states theres visible water damage in the waiting room and other parts of the building, including the judges offices, the main level hallway, restrooms, the court room, break room, public defenders office, holding cell area and basement basically the majority of the courthouse.

Signs, signs

c.jordan@thedailyunion.net
Every day thousands of travelers passing through the Flint Hills are exposed to many signs on Interstate 70. The National Water Trails System for the Kansas River is one of them. Rick Dykstra, assistant director of the Geary County Convention & Visitors Bureau, said those images are being stored in the minds of motorists on a conscious or subconscious level. Each day when we dont have a sign signifying were the home of the Kansas River, we lose associations, Dykstra said. The issue of signs and the linkage of Junction City was presented to CVB committee members during a Tuesday meeting. It appears that sometimes Junction City has to step out and let it be known that we want signs, too, Dykstra said. Kansas River signs, which include National Water Trail logos, are attached to Wamego and Manhattan, but Dykstra believes Junction City also should have one. The river begins at the intersection of the Republican and Smoky Hill rivers, just east of Junction City. It flows 173 miles eastward and joins the Missouri River and Kaw Point in Kansas City. CVB Executive Director Connie Hall said the signs for the Kansas River are being put up gradually. She currently is a member of the Kansas River Development Committee. Signage for the Freedoms Frontier National Heritage Area is another issue. The National Park Service affiliate preserves, interprets and promotes stories of the Missouri Kansas Border War and the conflicts over slavery. Geary County is one of 41 in the organizations coverage area of Missouri and Kansas. Their website, www. f re e d o m s f ro n t i e r. o r g , includes a map with a Junction City marker. It leads to information about the Geary County Historical Society & Museum. Dykstra said the historic organization is working on something which may take another six years to put up a sign with a logo. To remedy the issue, Tom Weigand, Chief Executive Officer of the Junction City Area Chamber of Commerce, said the organization must involve local state representatives and the Kansas Department of Transportation. The placement of the limestone, Welcome To The Flint Hills sign also was discussed by Dykstra during the meeting. He believes the current sign near Fort Riley should be placed closer to the beginning of the Flint Hills, near the border of Dickinson and Saline counties.

Traci Scotts plans for welcoming people into her recently-purchased house changed following last weeks storms. I should be planning a house warming party, she said at Tuesdays City Commission meeting. Instead, Im going to have my guests help me bail out water in the basement. Thanks to the Aug. 15 storms that pounded Junction City with three to four inches of rain more in other parts of town Scotts basement is flooded. Shes not alone. I dont know what is going on, but it sounds like there may be other people that may be dealing with something like this, Scott said. Im just coming to you as a concerned resident to say maybe, hopefully, me speaking out today will pique other peoples interest and they may come and tell you whats going on in their homes. Interim City Manager Cheryl Beatty acknowledged the recent rain has caused headaches for some homeowners in the city. Theres a lot of people having water issues in their basements right now for various reasons, she told the commission. Vice Mayor Pat Landes

Future of building in limbo


Like the smell of mold in areas of the Municipal Court building, how much the facilitys remediation will cost still is up in the air. No cost estimate is given in the report, but the city already is expecting to pay a boat load to either remediate the facility or remodel its temporary Jefferson Street location. In the recently-approved 2014 budget, the city allotted $1.1 million in capital improvement, which Beatty said likely will go toward the municipal court project, which ever one the commission decides. However, before the commission considers what step to take next, the city will review an architects cost estimate for both projects. Those estimates are expected to be finalized soon, according to city staff.

said hes had to face similar issues himself and can relate to the people dealing with flooded basements and water damage. Ive had that happen twice at my house, he said. Unfortunately, sometimes those things happen. But, as Beatty said, many times there isnt much the city can do for those folks. By the time it gets to my knowledge, theyre really upset because the citys not going to pay for it, she said. What it boils down to is unless the city caused the backup, the city does not pay for repairs. In Scotts case, Junction City Public Works Director Ray Ibarra came to her house to inspect the problem. He told me it appeared to be my sewage pipe, Scott said. He said youre going to have to have a plumber open it up, clean it out. There may be a blockage in there. Scott told the commission shes OK with having to pay for that work, but hopes other people at least approach the city to see if anything can be done in their cases. If it turns out that theres something thats wrong (with city equipment), I hope that somebody will take care of it, she said.

Mike Harris still is moving forward in an effort to make a $7 million expansion at his Acorns Resort a reality. During a Geary County Convention & Visitors Bureau Committee meeting this week, assistant director Rick Dykstra and Harris presented an update on the project, which would add a hotel, an indoor and outdoor restaurant and other amenities. Harris has obtained legal counsel, after Geary County officials made suggestions for him to do so. The business owner currently is seeking a 10-year property tax abatement. Its still not moving quite as quickly as I anticipated or hoped for, he said. But Im still trying to move forward, it just takes a little time to figure some things out. The request also includes a letter of support for a grant to establish a sewer system, request to the Kansas Department of Transportation for additional highway signage and supporting a change in legislation regarding resorts in state parks to include resorts on Federal lands.

Other concerns involved not having a neighborhood revitalization plan or a tax increment financing (TIF) district for the county and the land, which is associated with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). The update to the CVB committee also included a presentation about the Clinton Lake project near Lawrence, which is receiving strong support from state officials and the Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism (KDWPT). One bid from Lodgewell, LLC of Overland Park was submitted for that project so far. The deadline for submission was July 26. The business is led by developer Dave Mashburn and Dave Owen, a former state senator and lieutenant governor for Kansas. His wife, Laura Owen, was the first woman appointed to the Secretary of Commerce (KDOC) for the State of Kansas. According to information presented by Dykstra, Mashburn received rights to development 14 years ago, to develop a lake and selected Clinton. The project died in 2001, after the city of Lawrence rejected to subsidize water and sewer line cost.

Mexico officials ID bodies as 5 of missing 12


TLALMANALCO, Mexico Mexican authorities said Friday they have identified five bodies pulled from a mass grave as some of the 12 people kidnapped three months ago from a Mexico City bar. Assistant attorney general Renato Sales told reporters that 13 badly decomposed bodies have been pulled from a mass grave covered with cement, lime and asbestos discovered Thursday on a rural ranch east of Mexico City. Officials said the remains are at federal labs, where experts are using DNA tests, and they expect to have all of them identified soon. The young bar-goers vanished from the Heaven club at midday May 26, just a block from the leafy Paseo de Reforma, the capitals equivalent of the ChampsElysees. The bizarre disappearance resonated across the city of 9 million people because many had come to believe it was an oasis from the rampant drug violence that had led to discovery of mass graves elsewhere in the country. Authorities set up a perimeter more than a mile from the excavation site on a hilly ranch known as La Negra, where federal police and attorney generals trucks and large white vans were seen working the operation. The private property next to Rancho La Mesa Ecological Park is walled and surrounded by oak and pine trees. The federal Attorney Generals Office said agents had received information about possible illegal weapons on the property and obtained a search warrant. When they started looking around, they discovered the grave. They found a home that looked like a safe house, Murillo Karam told reporters Thursday. We were operating under the belief it was a weapons case. Prosecutors have said the abductions from the Heaven bar were linked to a dispute between street gangs that control local drug sales in the capitals nightclubs and bars. They say the gangs are based in Mexico Citys dangerous Tepito neighborhood, where most of the missing lived. The families insist the missing young people were not involved in drug trafficking. Surveillance cameras showed several cars pulling up to the bar at midday and taking the victims away. A witness who escaped told authorities that a bar manager had ordered the music turned off, told patrons that authorities were about to raid the establishment and ordered those inside to

Those detained in the Heaven case include club owner Ernesto Espinosa Lobo, known as The Wolf, who has been charged with kidnapping, as well as another bar owner, a driver and a security guard. A fifth person, Jose de Jesus Carmona, 32, is under arrest pending charges and another is a fugitive. In another element of the case that is reminiscent of cartel warfare, one of the owners of the Heaven bar, Dax Rodriguez Ledezma, fled authorities only to turn up dead, his body dumped and burned in a rural area with that of his girlfriend and another friend. Friday. He says the performers are now due to arrive on Saturday, and the show should begin on Sunday. The four-day Haiti on Ice show aims to bring together several international figure skaters, including Russian-born figure skater Elena Glebova and the French pair skater Yannick Bonheur. But the performances have been postponed more than a dozen times since they were first planned for November. Young Haitians began using the ice rink this week to learn how to skate. The delays have been blamed on problems including melting ice and a hurricane that brushed Haiti. The zoo has been on round-the-clock panda watch since Aug. 7, when Mei Xiang began showing behavioral changes consistent with a pregnancy or pseudopregnancy. A Chinese panda expert performed artificial inseminations on Mei Xiang on March 30 after she failed to breed naturally with male panda Tian Tian (tee-YEN tee-YEN). Mei Xiang had previously given birth to two cubs. Tai Shan was born in 2005 and a week-old cub died last September.

Louisiana Sen. David Vitter, the top Republican on the Senate Environment Committee, called the accusations appalling. This fraud was occurring for many years at the EPAs critical Air office, and during a period of time that Gina McCarthy was the administrator of the Air office, Vitter said in a statement. Its clear that further investigations are necessary. A spokesman for U.S. Attorney Ronald Machen declined to comment. A lawyer for Beale could not be reached Friday.

Mannings gender transition sets up legal showdown


Bradley Manning is the first transgender military inmate to ask for hormone treatments, officials say, a request that could lead to a legal showdown over how and if the soldier convicted in the WikiLeaks case will be allowed to live as a female behind bars. Current Pentagon policy dictates that transgender soldiers are not allowed to serve, and Manning wont be discharged until being released from prison and all appeals are exhausted. Furthermore, the military does not allow soldiers to undergo hormone treatments while in the all-male prison at Fort Leavenworth, Kan. though this is the first time officials have heard of a request for such treatment, said Maria Tolleson, a spokeswoman with the Army Medical Command in Arlington, Va. Were just now dealing with the issue, she said, adding it would be premature to say there has been any movement toward offering the care to all transgender inmates as a result of Mannings case. Manning also wont be allowed to dress as a

trade pact in the drive to complete negotiations by years end. The Trans-Pacific Partnership, or TPP, is the key plank of a U.S. effort to boost exports to the fastgrowing economies of the Asia-Pacific. U.S. Trade Representative Mike Froman spoke to reporters by phone Friday after TPP trade ministers met in Brunei. Froman said the aim remains to complete negotiations by the end of 2013. But he added: We are not rushing into an agreement to meet any particular deadline. The negotiations began more than 2 1/2 years ago and are said to be in their final stages. But much remains to be settled among the 12 participating nations, which account for 40 percent of world trade.

Ex-EPA official charged with stealing nearly $900K


WASHINGTON A former high-ranking official with the Environmental Protection Agency was charged Friday with stealing nearly $900,000 from the agency over 13 years. John C. Beale, a former deputy assistant administrator in the Office of Air and Radiation, is accused of stealing a total of $886,186 between 2000 and April of this year. A document filed by the Justice Department says Beale stole the money by collecting bonuses and extra salary. Beale, 64, of Arlington, Va., faces a maximum of 10 years in prison and financial penalties if convicted. He worked at the EPA for at least two decades under several presidents. He was a top deputy to EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy, who headed the Air and

WASHINGTON A giant panda at the Smithsonians National Zoo in Washington has given birth to her third cub, a female. The zoo said Mei Xiang (may-SHONG) gave birth at 5:32 p.m. Friday, two hours after her water broke. Zoo officials said panda team heard the cub vocalize and said Mei Xiang picked the cub up immediately and began cradling and caring for it. WE HAVE A CUB!!

woman, as wigs and bras are not allowed. The soldiers gender dysphoria the sense of being a woman in a mans body coupled with the military convictions could leave him to face an isolated future, shunned by fellow inmates and transgender veterans on the outside who believe the leaks put Mannings comrades in danger. It is not known whether Manning could be transferred to a female prison, though defense attorney David Coombs has said that was not the motive behind the Army privates statement Thursday asking to be referred to by feminine pronouns, signed Chelsea E. Manning. On NBCs Today show on Thursday, Coombs vowed to do everything in my power to make sure that they are forced to ensure Manning is provided with the hormone treatment, suggesting a lawsuit could be in the offing if the military doesnt comply. The American Civil Liberties Union, the Human Rights Campaign, along with other advocates, also say Manning should get the treatment. Coombs didnt respond to telephone and email messages Friday from The Associated Press. Its not clear whether Manning directly requested the therapy, which typically involves high doses of estrogen to promote breast development and other female characteristics, at Fort Leavenworth after arriving Thursday. Fort Leavenworth spokeswoman Kimberly Lewis said Mannings prison processing would include meeting with medical and mental health staff and determining where the inmate will be assigned in the population. Manning was diagnosed with gender identity disorder by an Army clinical psychologist while serving in Iraq in 2010, and by a Navy psychiatrist who examined Manning last year, according to their court-martial testimony.

John Montgomery and E.M. Gilbert Junction City Union July 28, 1888

From the editors desk

bout eight months ago, more than 40 Junction City and Geary County stakeholders and leaders headed to Overland Park for a Regional Retreat to in part talk about branding the community, how JC fits within the Flint Hills region and how to better communicate and work with surrounding municipalities. That branding of Junction City piece, which involves deciding who we are as a city, was one of the main topics discussed during the community session that focused on Junction City only. Although there were no specific answers from that morning session, there were some ideas and the intent to continue the discussion upon arrival back in Junction City. This upcoming Thursday, that branding discussion finalL isa ly will be back on the table S eiser with community members, stakeholders and others for an afternoon summer Community Forum held at the C.L. Hoover Opera House. That will be part of group and roundtable discussions, which will start with a discussion about why it is important to brand a community. The agenda also includes discussion on the importance of community image, which fits into those branding talks. During the January retreat, some of the words used to describe Junction City and Geary County included friendly, culturallydiverse, historic, growing, hidden gem, accessible, safe, neat, traffic friendly, small-town feel, affordable, changing, welcoming, alive, military-oriented and all-American. Attendees at that event agreed the area must be better at building an image and using those descriptive words is a start. From there, a brand and image must be created. The important aspect to note is the process finally is moving forward and it must. I am eager to hear the discussion and see the results from these talks at Thursdays forum. A facilitator from New Boston Creative Group will lead the discussion. It always is a good idea to bring in an outsider with no emotional stake in the community to guide these talks and keep them on track. The key will be to not lose any momentum gained from Thursday and continue on a path to decide how to truly brand and market Junction City for growth potential. In a January column, I suggested that meeting in Overland Park put the branding car in drive, but the brakes were still on. Its time to let off the brakes Thursday and start rolling forward. The future is now and Junction City leaders must take advantage of the opportunities by pressing down the accelerator on Thursday.

Its time to move on branding

The old days O


ne of the highlights of my summer experience was the 50th reunion of my graduating class from St. Brigid elementary school on Long Island. Back in 1963, 60 children sat in a small classroom hoping for big things in the future. We had spent eight years together, but now high school beckoned, and all of our lives would change dramatically. Back then, America was a far different place than it is today. John F. Kennedy was president but had fewer than six months to live. The Beatles were just emerging. Alfred Hitchcocks The Birds was scaring everybody in the movie theaters. The Andy Griffith Show dominated on TV. There was no war, but civil unrest in the South was intense. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was making great strides in securing human rights for black Americans. Twenty-two of my classmates made the reunion, and it was good to see all of them. Their lives have unfolded in mostly conventional ways. Most remain in the middle class and still believe in the fundamental goodness of their country and religion, although some are no longer practicing Catholics. The reunion deal is the same all over. Folks who dont succeed in life often dont show up. The happy people usually come armed with pictures of their

Bill Oreilly
Commentary children and grandchildren. My reunion was very family focused. Many of my classmates have led interesting lives, but unfortunately, I was the center of much attention. My visibility on television engendered much discussion, and I was happy to answer their questions. Since I was always a loudmouth, my classmates delighted in reminding me that I havent changed a bit and pointed out that only in America could I be well paid for doing something that got me a slap from Sister Thomas way back when. The thing that is so different today is that children have little time to be innocent. We only had each other at St. Brigid. There were no cell phones, computers or video games. There was no Facebook. In fact, outside intrusions were rare. We played games like dodgeball and keep away. We attended square dances and Christmas concerts. It was all so basic, so simple. And there was a

magic to it. Today, children are thrust into an adult world at warp speed. I remember a kid named Billy McDermott explaining to me and the other 8th-graders that his older brother knew some girls who were easy. Easy? We were all confused. And so was Billy as he struggled to define the term. Today, many 8th-graders are thinking about tattoos and drugs. We all know how graphic the Internet is, and believe me, kids know how to access this stuff. So I ask you: Wasnt it better to be a kid in 1963? By the way, the answer is yes. I feel sorry for the urchins these days. Responsible parents can mitigate some of the cultural damage but not all. We are living in fast times, in an era of selfishness and narcissism in which lowbrow entertainment envelops children like the chilly fog of San Francisco. Good memories are forever. I had them back in 1963.

Young Americans have challenges race not one of them A


fter half a century, the March on Washington has moved into the historical record as a courageous but hardly radical event. It is widely remembered for Martin Luther Kings brilliant extemporaneous riffs on I Have a Dream. But even a peaceful assembly by Negroes, as black Americans were then known, was a dangerous idea in a volatile era. President John F. Kennedy was deadset against it, and protest planners were careful about choosing their allies for fear of informants to the Kennedy administration and his Federal Bureau of Investigation. Civil rights leaders formally demoted their best strategist, Bayard Rustin though he continued to do most of the work because he was openly gay and a one-time Communist, either of which would have been ammunition for those who wanted to derail the civil rights movement. The march succeeded, though, perhaps beyond its organizers wildest dreams. A solemn demonstration of the power of black Americans simple plea for full citizenship, it proved to be one of the pivotal episodes of the civil rights movement. Its success in setting the stage for the Voting Rights Act shaped politics for the next 50 years, helping to propel President Barack Obama into office. In the current political climate, its easy enough to minimize the remarkable progress toward full equality that the nation has made since 1963. Its true that racism lives on, re-energized by pandering politicians and media demagogues. The criminal justice system is replete with discriminatory practices. Pernicious stereotypes still shadow the lives of black Americans. Most damning, black workers have

Commentary come no closer to closing the economic gap than they had in 1963. The Washington Post recently cited figures from the Economic Policy Institute showing that the unemployment rate was 5 percent for whites and 10.9 percent for blacks 50 years ago. The yawning gap remains today, with unemployment at 6.6 percent for whites and 12.6 percent for blacks, according to the Post. Furthermore, over the past 30 years, the average white family has gone from having five times as much wealth as the average black family to 6 1/2 times, the Post said. Still, its disrespectful to those hardy and brave souls who stood on the Mall 50 years ago to suggest that little has changed. The nation has undergone a remarkable transformation in five decades, as the two elections of a black president attest. Black men and women now hold positions of influence and authority throughout academia, business and the professions. They lead the U.S. armed forces. They are cultural icons, some so popular they are known simply by their first names. The everyday interactions of Americans from different racial and ethnic groups have changed, as well. Interracial marriage is broadly accepted, and biracial children are a growing part of

the population. Schools may not be as well-integrated as King had dreamed, but they are much more diverse than they were 50 years ago. So are churches and civic clubs. Even the angry backlash by tea partiers and other sectors of the far right is a sign of changing times. Much of the hysteria that is lathered up by right-wing talk show hosts such as Rush Limbaugh is a last surge of protest by an aging demographic: older whites who resent or fear the changes fostered by the civil rights movement. The country is growing browner, and by mid-century, whites will no longer constitute a majority of the population. As a voting bloc and cultural influence, their power is waning. And they know it. The good news is that younger whites are much more likely to embrace diversity, to accept cultural change, and to support the nations civic creed of full equality for all, regardless of race, religion or sexual orientation. Polling data show they diverge from the views of their parents and grandparents on many social issues. Of course, younger Americans will have their struggles, too their bitter disagreements and their political challenges. And they will have to tackle the economic injustices around which King planned his last crusade. But they seem less likely to forge a future cleaved by color, and thats worth celebrating.

Missouri lawsuit accuses KCP&L of negligence


Associated Press
ST. JOSEPH, Mo. A northwest Missouri man has filed a lawsuit accusing Kansas City Power & Light of negligence in its oversight of the solar-panel rebate program. The lawsuit was filed in Buchanan County Circuit Court this month by St. Joseph resident Richard Sharp, listing KCP&L, St. Joseph-based U.S. Solar and its owner Trevor Dryden as defendants, The St. Joseph News-Press reported. The lawsuit seeks damages for breach of contract, negligence and other alleged violations. KCP&L spokesman Chuck Caisley said utility officials vigorously deny the allegations. This was a transaction between two private parties, Caisley said. This is a resident who chose U.S. Solar and is now unhappy with what happened between them and U.S. Solar. It has very little to do with KCP&L. A message left at a home listing under Drydens name was not immediately returned, and calls to U.S. Solar seeking comment were not answered Friday. The utility has offered residential and commercial customers in Missouri a $2.00 per watt rebate for using solar technology for their homes and businesses, according to its website. In the 62-page complaint that was filed Aug. 15, Sharp says he took part in KCP&Ls

Solar Electric rebate program and chose U.S. Solar to install the systems. The complaint accuses U.S. Solar of installing inoperable systems that could not be connected to KCP&Ls electric system. Sharp also accuses KCP&L of breach of contract for failing to properly verify that the solar systems were operational.

Short essay: killed at seven

The Daily Union. Saturday, Aug. 24, 2013

Dennis the Menace

Marmaduke

Dear Annie: You frequently print the essay Dead at Seventeen by John Berrio, about the dangers of reckless driving by teenagers. Ive written a version of it that addresses the growing danger posed by older drivers who should no longer be driving. For political reasons, I suspect the chance of any meaningful legislation being passed is slim. The only hope is for people to read this and realize that, yes, unfortunately, it applies to them. An unsafe driver is a danger to everyone on the road, the sidewalk or in a restaurant. A few years ago, a senior driver plowed into a crowd at a farmers market, killing 10 and injuring 70. When I took Drivers Ed as a teenager, they gave us a copy of Dead at Seventeen at the end of the course. Perhaps the AARP could hand out this essay at their Driver Safety courses or adult children can give this to their parents. Paul O. Ketro, M.D., Massachusetts General Hospital, Instructor in Medicine, Harvard Medical School, Boston Killed at Seven I am in agony. He is a statistic. He is one of many, many others whose bodies are as badly mangled as his their category is called Killed by Senior Drivers. The day I killed him was an ordinary day. How I wish that I had taken the bus. But I was too good for the bus. I remember how I ignored my adult children, who begged me not to drive anymore. I said, All of my friends drive. I want my independence. I want to be my own boss. I dont remember how the accident happened. The last thing I recall was that a younger adult passed me he seemed to be going so fast. I guess I was just kidding myself by thinking that if I only drove slowly and on familiar streets, I could still drive safely. Later on, I found out that a child had run out ahead of my car chasing a ball. I didnt really see him. My vision isnt that great anymore but I can renew my drivers license by mail, so my vision doesnt get checked very often. I felt a bump on the car, and I heard a scream. Then the

boy hit my windshield, and I finally noticed him. Glass flew everywhere. Suddenly it was very quiet. The boy was lying on the road, his body mangled. Pieces of jagged glass were sticking out all over. Then there were sirens. The ambulance arrived, and they pulled a sheet over the boys head. Hey! Dont pull that sheet over his head! Hes only 7! He has a ball game this afternoon. He was supposed to have a wonderful life ahead of him. He hasnt lived yet. He cant be dead. His mother was there. She was heartbroken. His father came out, too theyre my neighbors. He suddenly looked very old. I told the police officer that the gas pedal had gotten stuck because thats what older drivers often say when they hit someone. Its a small town, and everyone is in a daze. People see me and look away. No one can believe it. I cant believe it, either. Ive read about older drivers who plow into crowds, but I never thought it would be me. Please, somebody wake him up! I cant bear to see his mom and dad in such pain. Please dont bury him! Hes not dead! He has a lot of living to do! He wants to laugh and run again. Please dont put him in the ground. I promise if you give me just one more chance, God, I wont drive again. All I want is one more chance. Please, God, he was only 7.

Coffee, wine and sushi! New pregnancy book says OK


B y L eanne I talie

Associated Press
NEW YORK Emily Oster isnt a baby doctor. Shes an economist and a mom who wanted to know more about all those rules handed down to women after the pregnancy stick goes pink. Only two cups of coffee a day! No alcohol. Beware deli meats. Being pregnant, she said, felt a lot like being a child, so she decided to take a deep dive into research covering everything from wine and weight gain to prenatal testing and epidurals. What she found was some of the mainstays of pregnancy advice are based on inconclusive or downright faulty science. To this data-cruncher, an associate professor in the University of Chicagos business school, those magical nine months became a question of correlation and causation. Some of her conclusions? Weight gain during pregnancy is less important than a womans starting weight and not gaining enough may be more harmful. Light drinking is fine (up to two glasses of wine a week in the first trimester and up to a glass a day in the second and third trimesters). And much of the evidence supports having three to four cups of coffee daily, which made Oster very, very happy. Theres more, of course, and not all of it runs counter to standard medical advice. And she happily reports in Expecting Better, her book corralling all the research for other women to share, that her 2-year-old daughter, Penelope, is healthy and happy. The book, from Penguin Press, is out this week. A conversation with Oster: AP: Have you written the

Freakonomics of pregnancy? Oster: I think its right that it feels a little bit like Freakonomics because Steve (Levitt) and I are both economists, but the goal here was really to write down an approach that was right for me. The approach being thinking carefully through all of these decisions, getting the best data that you can and then structuring the decision in a way that takes into account your personal preferences, tolerance for risk and all the kinds of things that we should be thinking about every day. AP: Do you anticipate blowback from women and doctors because youre an economist and not a medical professional who helps manage pregnancies? Oster: For sure but I certainly do not envision women reading this book and saying, Oh, like, I can deliver my own baby now, right? I think that theres a real sense in which pregnancy should be something that you do with your doctor, but I think that for a lot of women the time you have with your doctors is limited and it can be difficult to get all of the answers to your questions. AP: Are most pregnant women ill-informed? Are doctors and other pregnancy professionals lax in keeping up to date on research that might lead to more specific recommendations? Oster: I think we see sometimes where practice lags behind recommendations. Not all practitioners, obviously. As an example, in the case of prenatal testing, even though more recent recommendations dont favor the 35-year-old cutoff as much, thats still a highly practiced thing, so I think theres a sense in which there is some slow creep of knowledge.

I actually think pregnant women are really wellinformed but I think that theres a tremendous amount of confusing and conflicting information out there. You could read every pregnancy book and every pregnancy website and come away thinking on some topics I have no idea what the real facts are. AP: Isnt that what the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists is for? They have committees to vet research and keep up to date. Oster: Yeah, it is, and actually in a lot of cases I found that women would do quite well to read the ACOG opinions. There were a few cases where I thought perhaps they were overly cautious but actually theres a lot of settings in which I think that would be a great place to start. There are certainly times in which practice hasnt really caught up to those opinions. A lot of the choices that women need to make in pregnancy, its sort of not possible for ACOG to tell them the right answer. For example, if you think about prenatal testing youre thinking about a case in which youre trading off more information about the baby for some small risk of miscarriage.

After a while, there was no food or ammunition. When he heard the last clip click from his M-1, he became confused. He remembers looking down a hill and shrapnel-injured hands as he hid behind a tree. Bill was captured Dec. 19. It was very humiliating, Bill said about surrendering. On that day Bill became a prisoner of war. With family members, he reflected on some of the horrors he faced for about four months. In the prison camp, the enemy broke his nose with the butt of a gun. He was ridiculed and shamed for having a German last name. Needles were stuck in his arm and he had no idea what was going into his body. Along with other men, Bill was put on a boxcar. On Christmas Eve, it was strafed by ally forces. Bill recalls a soldier killed in the car next to him and others were wounded. They were locked in the car for two or three more days. After being freed and returning to America, he went on with life.

importance, even though he doesnt feel like that, Marsha said. Family members often have to drag the stories out of him. Marsha recalled attending a veterans meeting with her father. When they began to talk about it, you can see the 18 and 19-yearold boys talking, she said. Some of their stories started to get to me. Going to the landlocked European country of Luxembourg was probably the best gift shes ever received. Inside a famous chapel where Gen. George Patton gave his famous prayer, a medal of honor was pinned on Bill. Just seeing the Luxemburg people it almost makes you realize that were not very grateful for what these guys do every day, she said. Bill was also awarded the Purple Heart, ETO Ribbon, and three Battle Stars, American Defense Service Ribbon and Good Conduct Medal. Marsha said he continued to keep his sense of humor throughout the years. He never let horror define him, Marsha said. Thats something we can all take a lesson from. expected to be discussed next month by the City Commission.

Marsha Stahl Mechtley spends time with her father Bill Stahl, a World War II veteran.
He attended Washburn University and studied law. While attending the school, he worked as a painter and a taxi driver. He also was the leader of a five-piece band. Bill soon returned to Junction City and was an attorney for 60 years. He became active with several organizations.

(Planning and Zoning Director) David Yearout has been working very hard on it with us. The next discussions topic will be how to develop a brand that everyone, including local government officials and the public, can buy into. Chamber Economic Development Specialist Susan Jagerson said a brand, like a good image, is beneficial to the community. A brand positions your community in the mind of your target audience and gives a consistent message from everyone, she said. The goal of the branding session, Davies

said, is to open the doors to begin a campaign and develop a strategy. The community branding discussion also will lead into the annual regional chamber retreat, which is expected to be held in January in Overland Park. In the past, government and chamber officials from Junction City, Manhattan and Wamego have attended the regional event. Davies said one of the topics expected to be discussed at that retreat is how to develop a regional brand, which fits well with the local forums goal. This is a good time for us to have that discussion before we go to the regional retreat, she said. Other topics expected to be discussed at next weeks forum include a Fort Riley update from Brig. Gen. Sean Swindell, a review of last years forum and a review of the previous regional chamber retreat.

The JCFD was assisted by the Fort Riley and Geary County fire departments, the Junction City Police Department and Junction City Public Works. The cause of the fire remained unknown as of Friday morning. Investigators from the State Fire Marshals Office in Topeka were called in to determine the cause. Fire Marshalls Office Investigator Lamar Shoemaker said its common for the office to get

Rays obtain OF DeJesus from Nationals


The Tampa Bay Rays have acquired outfielder David DeJesus from Washington just four days after the Nationals picked him up from the Chicago Cubs. Washington will receive a player or cash considerations in the deal announced on Friday. DeJesus is expected to join the Rays before they host the New York Yankees on Friday night. He was acquired by the Nationals on Monday and played in three road games with Washington this week. In 87 games overall this season, DeJesus is batting .247 with six home runs and 27 RBIs.

KSU stadium expansion finishes ahead of opener


B y DAVE SKRETTA

Associated Press
The last limestone brick is in place. The final yard of concrete poured. The whirlwind work on a $75 million renovation to Bill Snyder Family Stadium is complete. All thats left is for fans to starting spinning the turnstiles. Project supervisor AECOM announced Thursday that the renovation of the west side of the 45-year-old stadium in Manhattan, Kan., finished on schedule. Construction had to be squeezed into eight months in order to be ready for the Wildcats opener Aug. 30 against North Dakota State. The renovation resulted in new premium seating, improved media and broadcast facilities, the addition of the K-State Athletics Hall of Honor and other amenities. It also doubled the amount of field lighting to meet NCAA national standards for high-definition TV broadcasts. We want the game-day experience at K-State to be special, associate athletics director Scott Garrett said. Our goal is for fans to walk away from our stadium regardless of whether the team won or lost and which team they are supporting and feel that their return on investment was well beyond the price of their ticket and that it was a very special experience. The massive stadium project, which was announced in January 2012 and funded entirely through private donations, is designed to go a long way toward improving the fan experience. Where once a double-wide trailer served as the press box, and later a simple structure to house the media and fans, there is now a 250,000 square-foot facility. It includes new suites and loge seating, retail locations and expansive concession and restroom facilities that also can be utilized by fans sitting in the preexisting bowl portion of the stadium. To see the facilities and whats happened here, its truly remarkable, Big 12 Commissioner Bob Bowlsby said after a recent tour of the construction. I think a lot of people have had their hands on it, but I dont think anybody has done as much as Coach Snyder. Indeed, the stadium had undergone a dramatic transformation since Snyder arrived on campus prior to the 1989 season. There were high school stadiums that were nicer than KSU Stadium, as it was known back then, and the digs made it difficult for the program to attract recruits. That should no longer be such a big problem. The vibrancy, the robustness that you have here, its a prosperous feeling, Bowlsby said, a feeling that comes with winning. The imposing structure clad in limestone stretches from one end zone to the other, opposite the upper level added to the east side of the stadium after the 1998 season. It gives off the feeling that the stadium is much larger, even though the listed capacity remains 50,000. Weve sold a record number of season tickets, said Kansas State athletic direcPlease see KSU

ESPN drops out of PBS project on NFL head injuries


ESPN says its ending its collaboration with public TV in an investigation of the NFL and players head injuries. ESPN said Friday its decision was based on a lack of editorial control over League of Denial: The NFLs Concussion Crisis, airing in October on PBS Frontline public affairs series. At ESPNs request, its logo was being removed from websites related to the project and from the film itself. In an online statement, the producers of Frontline said they regretted ESPNs exit. The producers said the two-part League of Denial will air as scheduled on Oct. 8 and 15. Meanwhile, both ESPN and the NFL on Friday denied a New York Times report that quotes unidentified sources saying the NFL had pressured ESPN to drop out of the project.

Royals comeback falls short

Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. Jayson Werth hit a two-run homer, Bryce Harper drove in three runs and the Washington Nationals rallied from a six-run hole before holding off the Kansas City Royals for an 11-10 victory Friday night. Harper also made a terrific catch in the ninth for Washington, which scored seven times in the fourth inning of its fourth consecutive win. Ian Desmond had a pair of hits during the outburst. Denard Span, Ryan Zimmerman, Tyler Moore and Anthony Rendon also had RBIs as the Nationals piled up 11 runs for the second time in three games they beat the Cubs 11-6 on Tuesday night. Just like in that one, Tyler Roark (4-0) came in to spell some sloppy starting pitching for the Nationals. He earned the win by allowing one hit and one walk in 4 2-3 innings. Please see Royals, 3B

Steelers acquire RB Felix Jones from Eagles


The Pittsburgh Steelers have bolstered their injury-plagued backfield, acquiring running back Felix Jones from Philadelphia for linebacker Adrian Robinson. The deal, announced Friday, requires both players to pass a physical. The 26-year-old Jones gives the Steelers needed depth at running back. Rookie LeVeon Bell is out with a sprained right foot and is out indefinitely. Isaac Redman is dealing with a nerve injury and return specialist LaRod Stephens-Howling sat out last Mondays preseason game against Washington with a sprained knee. Jones was the 22nd overall pick in the 2008 NFL Draft by the Dallas Cowboys but never stayed healthy enough to become the teams feature back. He has rushed for 2,728 yards and 11 touchdowns in 64 games. Robinson made the Steelers as a undrafted rookie free agent last season, appearing in 12 games.

Breaking down Kansas States schedule


E than P adway

sports.beat@thedailyunion.net
In 2013, Kansas State will be fortunate enough to host eight games this season and only hit the road four times. Add in the fact that one of the road games is just a short trip down I-70 to Lawrence only makes things even rosier as the team tries to defend its conference title. Here is a look at the schedule and which games should and shouldnt pose threats to the Wildcats.

The Daily Union wants your sports news from Geary, Riley, Dickinson, Morris, Clay and Wabaunsee counties. E-mail: sports.beat@thedailyunion.net

We want your news

The non-cons
North Dakota State 8/30, Louisiana-Lafayette 9/7, UMass 9/14
Kansas State opens with North Dakota State, the defending Football Championship Series (formerly D-1AA) champs. But the Bison are better known in Kansas for knocking off the other division one team in the state in a 2010 visit to Lawrence. While the game will be tougher than the typical FCS-cupcake game, and the last two seasons the Wildcats have gotten off to slow

starts against their FCS opponents sneaking past Eastern Kentucky 10-7 in the 2011 and only leading Missouri State 16-9 entering the fourth quarter last year, an upset is highly unlikely. Snyder is a much better coach than Turner Gill and despite much turnover on the roster for the defending Big 12 champions, this is still a significantly more talented squad. Any hopes the Bison have of repeating the success of their previous trip to the Sunflower State will be dashed, the only question is how long they will stick around. Louisiana-Laffayette will bring a high-octane offense to Manhattan in the second week of the season. The Ragin Cajuns will not be a pushover by any means and will provide a good barometer to see how the Wildcats revamped defense will fare against the tough offenses it will face on a weekly basis in Big 12 play. This will most likely be the toughest of Kansas States non-conference opponents. The final tune-up game for Big 12 play comes against UMass, a program in its second year at the top level of college football. The Minutemen slugged their way to a 1-11

record last season, with the lone victory coming against Akron. If the Cats cant take care of business against UMass, it will raise serious red flags around the program.

The Contenders
at Texas 9/21, at Oklahoma State 10/5, Baylor 10/14
The back-to-back road games for the Wildcats to open Big 12 play could trouble the team and put the first blemish on the record. On the positive side, Kansas State will have a bye week in between so it can put even more focus towards Oklahoma State. Texas, the Wildcats first opponent on the road, once again enters the season as a ranked opponent despite some struggles in recent years. Its been 10 years since the Wildcats last lost to the Longhorns, but that streak could be in jeopardy. Texas hasnt been the same powerhouse since the 2010 BCS National Championship game but since then have fallen short of preseason expectations every year. Even so, Texas, like always, is loaded with talent and it will take Snyders best game plan to leave Austin with a W. Please see K-State

Wild card race looking extra crowded this season


B y RICK FREEMAN

Associated Press
NEW YORK Joe Maddon manages one of the best teams in baseball. And the Tampa Bay Rays could wind up going home after one game this postseason. Then again, winning just one game shouldnt be too hard for the teams that survive the crowded wild card race. Its getting there thats going to be difficult in the second year of baseballs new playoff format. Right now, you look at the American League East, and Boston and Tampa arent taking any days off because who wants to win 98 or 99 games and be in a one-game playoff ? said former Red Sox manager Terry Francona, who now has the Cleveland Indians in the thick of the wild-card race. They wanted to stress the importance of the season, which makes sense. The Rays are only a game behind Boston for the AL East lead, and if the season ended before Fridays games, they would make it as one of the wild cards and play Oakland in a one-game, winner-take-all matchup. With a little more than five weeks left in the regular season, though, the AL wild card race is jammed. The NL is slightly less crowded. Lurking right behind Tampa Bay is Cleveland, 2 1/2 games back before Fridays games. Baltimore was 3 games out of the playoffs and the Yankees were 3 1/2 games behind. Even the Royals might have an outside chance to get in. Kansas City is seven games behind Oakland for the second wild card spot and falling fast, having lost five straight and eight of 10. Now with the extra wild card, everyone has to be on their toes, Clevelands Jason Giambi said. GMs have to be into it because they may have to make a trade that can get you over the top, and a lot of teams that would be sellers become buyers. Thats five, maybe six, teams scratching and clawing to get the chance to play one extra game. And after all that,

one team will be ending its season only a day or two later than hopeless cases such as the Miami Marlins or Houston Astros. Is it fair? Of course not, Orioles manager Buck Showalter said. But Id rather play in a one-game playoff than not be involved in one at all. Showalter would know. His team beat Texas last season to face the Yankees in the AL Division Series. He also managed in the first wild card round, with the 1995 Yankees. They got to play a full series, though, and nearly upset the Mariners in a first round that went the full five games. Since then, wild-card teams have outperformed expectations by winning more than half of their series. Last year, St. Louis beat Atlanta (with some help from a dubious call) in the one-game wild card, then eliminated Washington before losing in the NLCS. In fact, the World Series has been won by a wild card five times, most recently by the 2011 Cardinals. Four of the last 10 World Series champs have been wild card winners. Three more made it to the World Series and lost. Whichever AL teams make the wild card will have spent plenty of time fighting to qualify at the end of the season. In the NL, it might work out easier. The Braves are running away and hiding in the East, and the Dodgers began Friday with a 9 1/2-game lead on Arizona. The Diamondbacks were 7 games out of the second wildcard spot, so that race could come down to the Pirates, Cardinals and Reds jockeying for the division title and to dodge the one-game playoff. Two years ago, the stakes might have been a bit higher. With three teams that close, one would win the division, one would be the wild card and the third would get nothing. That could be everything to teams like the Pirates, whose last postseason appearance came before there was a wild card, in 1992. The Royals, clinging to contention, have been waiting even longer. If they make it, it will almost certainly be as the second wild-card team. Its the first time I can say weve had a shot, Billy

Chicago White Sox second baseman Gordon Beckham throws to first for the double play hit into by Kansas City Royals Billy Butler after forcing Eric Hosmer out at second Tuesday in Kansas City, Mo.
Butler said. They would take it without reservation. As would any of the dozen or so teams that can reasonably be considering postseason play at this point. Now its all about bridging September to get to October. If you get to the dance you have a chance, Reds manager Dusty Baker said. You just dont know.

SPORTS Royals
Continued from Page 1B
Bruce Chen (5-2) was tagged for the second straight time for Kansas City. He allowed seven runs and six hits with five walks in 3 2-3 innings in his shortest outing of the year. The Royals trailed 11-8 heading to the ninth, but Alex Gordon walked and Eric Hosmer doubled before Billy Butlers RBI single. Justin Maxwell added a two-run single to make it 11-10, but closer Rafael Soriano induced a pair of fly balls to end the game. The first flyout came on a dramatic sliding catch by Harper in right on a blooper by Emilio Bonifacio. The second came on the first pitch to Alcides Escobar, giving Soriano is 33rd save. Hosmer and Maxwell each homered and drove in three runs for the Royals, who have lost six straight. Salvador Perez drove in a pair of runs, and Gordon added three hits. Royals manager Ned Yost convened a closed-door meeting before the game in the hopes of igniting an offense that scored five runs in a three-game sweep against the lastplace White Sox. It looks as if the message worked. Gordon hit a leadoff double in the first and Hosmer followed with a drive to left, quickly staking Kansas City to a 2-0 lead. Maxwell added a solo shot later in the inning. The Royals kept battering Gio Gonzalez in the second. Jamey Carroll got his first hit in 17 at-bats since arriving in a trade from Minnesota.

tor John Currie, who has spearheaded the project. Weather-pending, well have the most fans ever to come to the stadium this season, about 400,000, which would set the all-time attendance record. The opener against North Dakota State is sold out, including the standing-room only tickets, which should make for a festive atmosphere when the renovation is dedicated. The project is the centerpiece of a master plan that was launched in August 2011. The next phase, which is already under development, will include a new strength and conditioning center, recruiting lounge and other aesthetic improvements. The stadium renovation is the largest construction project undertaken in the universitys history, said Jon Niemuth, sports design director for AECOM, the architect of record for the project. We knew it would require innovative and careful planning to deliver the new stadium to K-State fans with no interruption to the football schedule. They managed to do it with a week to spare.

The ball gets past Kansas City Royals catcher Salvador Perez as Washington Nationals Wilson Ramos scores during the seventh inning of a baseball game at Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City, Mo., Friday.
Gordon hit an RBI double, Hosmer drove in a run with a single, and Butlers run-scoring base hit made it 6-0. Then the Nationals started their comeback. Denard Spans triple in the third scored their first run. In a preview of the trouble to come, Chen loaded the bases before escaping the inning on Werths fly ball to center. Chens nightmare finally came to pass in the fourth inning, when the veteran left-hander served up three singles to the first four batters he faced. Rendons sacrifice fly scored the first of what would turn into seven runs for Washington in the inning. Spans two-out walk loaded the bases, and Zimmerman walked to score a run. Harpers double off the wall in center cleared the bases and tied it at 6, forcing Yost to trundle to the mound for a pitching change. Werth greeted Louis Coleman with his two-run homer. The Royals cut the lead to 8-7 in the bottom half on Perezs base hit, but the Nationals piled on three more runs in the seventh inning. The first came on Moores RBI single, and the final two runs scored when second baseman Chris Getz threw the ball away trying to make a play at home a fitting way to cap what turned out to be a circus-like night for the Kansas City defense.

Diamondbacks fall 4-3 to Phillies


B y AARON BRACY

Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA The Diamondbacks caught a break. They just couldnt do enough with it to slow their sinking playoff chances. Arizona scored all three of its runs in the fourth inning when Philadelphia left fielder Domonic Brown lost a routine fly ball in the lights as twilight fell, but the Diamondbacks

wouldnt score again in a 4-3 loss to the Philadelphia Phillies on Friday night. Chase Utley walked with the bases loaded in the bottom of the ninth inning, lifting the Phillies to their fifth win in six games. Four of those victories have come in their last atbat, including the last three. Anytime you have walk-off (wins), it creates excitement and right now its carrying over to the next day, Phillies interim manager Ryne SandBoth the Mountaineers and Red Raiders are making the transition to new quarterbacks and the Red Raiders are in the first year with new coach Kliff Kingsbury. Iowa State has proven to be capable of knocking off top teams at Jack Trice stadium, but have yet to get a signature road victory which will be necessary if Paul Rhoads wants to take his team to the next level. A win over K-State could provide that for his team and the Wildcats clearly have more to lose in the matchup. If the Wildcats struggle or drop one of these games, it will be an indicator of how far from 2012 the team has fallen.

berg said. Matt Davidson had two hits and an RBI for the Diamondbacks, who have dropped four of five, damaging their fleeting playoff hopes. Coming into the day, Arizona was 9 1/2 games behind the Dodgers in the NL West and seven back of the Reds for the second NL wild-card spot. They just got it done in the ninth, Arizona manager Kirk Gibson said. We got a big break on the ball lost in the lights, but we couldnt tack on. yet to take a snap in competition, the redshirt freshman steps into a solid situation and the Sooners should continue to be the model of consistency theyve been under Bob Stoops. The Wildcats will have home field advantage in both these games and will need to take advantage of it to contend for the title.

K-State Schedule
Continued from Page 1B
Oklahoma State is a trendy pick to win the Big 12 and will enter the game with a polar opposite game plan from the Wildcats. If the Cowboys can force a fastpaced shootout, theyll have the advantage, but if the Wildcats can control the clock, they can leave Stillwater victorious. This two-game stretch will be crucial if K-State is able to defend its Big 12 crown. Baylor presents the Wildcats with a chance to avenge its loss last season which ultimately kept them from the national title game. The Bears feature one of the most exciting players in the conference in Lache Seastrunk and are a darkhorse for the Big 12 title.

The contest formerly known as a rivalry


at Kansas 11/30
The Sunflower Showdown has been extremely one-sided in favor of the Wildcats since Snyders return to the sidelines. Depending on how the season unfolds for the Jayhawks, Kansas coach Charlie Weis could be feeling a lot of heat if his team is still failing to pick up wins especially in conference play. Despite the game being played in Lawrence, if the Jayhawks dont have a drastic turn-around, the atmosphere could be much more neutral than any other of the road games.

Proving ground
TCU 11/16, Oklahoma 11/23
The toughest two-game home stretch will be when TCU and Oklahoma visit in consecutive weeks in mid-November. Winning these two and losing one or both could be the difference between an upper-echelon bowl game or being a team that is barely bowl eligible. The Horned Frogs are trying to prove they belong in the Big 12 by competing for the conference title in just its second season as a member. Gary Patterson said hes not going to announce a starting QB until the first game, but the Frogs do have talent at the position and whoever is taking snaps will be experienced. Oklahoma recently named Trevor Knight the starting QB. While he has

Staying afloat
West Virginia 10/26, Iowa State 11/2, at Texas Tech 11/8
If the Wildcats struggle in their previous three contests, the tilts with West Virginia, Iowa State and Texas Tech should present an opportunity for Kansas State to raise its head back above water and get within striking distance (or even qualify for) a bowl game.

KCI ROADRUNNER
Looking for me?

The Wildcats have a very favorable schedule, which in a worst case scenario should lead the team to its fourth consecutive bowl game. With the Big 12 as wide open as it is this year, it might only take an upset or two for Kansas State to find itself in the thick of the title race. But a more realistic finish would be somewhere in the upper-middle of the conference.

SPORTS Full pads


Continued from Page 1B
Instead of working through drills in 20-minute sets, he doubled the number of periods but cut the time down to 10-minutes for each set. I wish we had 50 20-pound vests we could practice the first three days in, but we just dont have them, Zimmerman said. Its just the extra equipment. You have the helmets on the first three days, you get acclimated to that, then you add the shoulder pads and youre puttting pants on instead of shorts. Everythings more restricted and its mid-August and very humid. After being limited to the base defense the first day of practice, the Blue Jays defense has now caught up to the offense. Players now have the ability to adjust out of the base to whatever the opponent throws at them. It was really tough tonight for the offense to move the ball and I think kids got really frustrated, Zimmerman said. But theyre very prideful kids and theyre going to work hard. The Blue Jays take their next step toward becoming gameready with a Saturday morning practice, where the squad will play more game situations. It also will be the first time the plays are live all the way to the ground. Zimmerman said hes looking for execution on the offensive side and making sure the defense knows how to line up properly depending on what look the offense shows. Its all going to be situational, Zimmerman said. Were not going to be moving the ball down the field, were going to be working on third downs and down and distance situations. Junction City wont have officials on the field, nor will there be game-style drives down the field. That wont happen until Thursday nights Blue/White scrimmage. But the addition of pads makes it easier for the coaching staff to evaluate the players. Zimmerman said its the kids who remain mentally tough, despite the fatigue brought on, that win the reps. Its the kids that are out there on the first rep, every specialty, those are the ones that get your attention, Zimmerman said.

Davis 2 HRs send Brewers over Reds


B y JOE KAY

Associated Press
CINCINNATI The Reds bullpen finally had a bad day. Khris Davis hit a pair of tworun homers in consecutive at-bats for the first multihomer game of his career, powering the Milwaukee Brewers to a 6-4 victory over Cincinnati on Friday night. The Reds lost for only the fifth time in their last 17 games, a surge that has tightened the NL Central race. They came in a season-high 18 games over .500. Davis connected in the sixth off Homer Bailey and again in the eighth off Alfredo Simon (5-4), who had a rough inning. He also gave up Gennetts solo homer, which was upheld on review. Gennett also singled and doubled and scored twice. The bullpen has pitched a lot of innings lately, which could have been a factor. Simon had been consistent lately, allowing only two runs in his last nine appearances. That was uncharacteristic of Simon, manager Dusty Baker said. I think you saw some signs of fatigue, and that Davis is the best young player Ive seen come into the league this year. Scooter Gennett also homered for Milwaukee, which won at Great American Ball Park for only the second time in seven games this season.

Rob Wooten (2-0) hit a batter during his one inning in relief. Zack Cozart singled home a run in the eighth off Brandon Kintzler. Jim Henderson gave up a hit in the ninth while getting his 20th save in 23 chances, leaving him with 14 straight scoreless appearances. The Brewers played their first game since Ryan Braun acknowledged in a statement that he used performance-enhancing drugs while recovering from an injury in 2011, when he won the National League MVP award. Players called it a good first step for Braun, who is serving a 65-game suspension from Major League Baseball. Davis rejoined the Brewers when Braun was suspended, his third stint of the season. Hes hit all eight of his homers in the 23 games since, including the tworun shot that put Milwaukee ahead 3-2 in the sixth. His next homer snapped a 3-all tie. The rookie is batting .386 since Braun started his suspension. I dont see any flaws in him right now, manager Ron Roenicke said. Hes really doing a good job. Bailey repeatedly went deep in the count to batters and retired the side in order only once during his six innings. Baker considered letting him go another inning, but was concerned about his pitch count over his last two starts.

Junction Citys own currency


B y S arah M. M oppin

Special to the Daily Union

oney, money, money makes the world go round. Everyone has heard the phrase. But what a lot of people dont know is that it wasnt until the 1930s that the government was the exclusive printer of US paper currency. In 1863 they developed a national currency with a standard design. Banks used the design to print and issue the money with the name and location of the bank printed on it. In the years before that money was sometimes only reliable or usable if it was made of precious metal. There have been many different types of paper currency over the years, some were legitimate and some werent. Some companies like railroads would issue their own money which was only good locally. There have been bills that were only worth 25 due to a lack of precious

metals during the Civil War. These bills were issued instead of coins and were called postage notes or postage currency because their design was based on the postage stamps. There have been Silver Certificates and Gold Certificates as well. Gold Certificates were gold in color and began circulating in 1865. Silver Certificates were the same as Gold Certificates but were supported by the large silver deposits mined beginning in the 1870s. Both of these certificates were redeemable for the amount of the certificate in that precious metal. In the 1930s the redemption of certificates for gold was outlawed for citizens and the US stopped redeeming paper currency for gold altogether in 1971. Silver Certificates havent been redeemable for silver since 1968. Since the exchange of paper money for precious metal ended our money only has value because we accept that those colored pieces of

paper are worth what is printed on them. The US government has always had an interest in regulating currency but became heavily invested in regulating paper currency during the chaos of the Civil War. After 1863 most private banks issued their own money but when it was spent or exchanged there was an exchange rate much like when US dollars are exchanged for foreign money today. According to the US Bureau of Engraving and Printing, National Bank Notes were issued between 1863 and 1938. Their design was the same regardless of place of issue, differing only in the name, location, and charter number of the bank. The bank note in the picture was issued by Central National Bank with their name and location but notice the rest of the design is similar to five dollar bills prior to the year 2000. Central National Bank was not the only bank in

Junction City to issue National Bank Notes. First National Bank also issued currency bearing their name. To see an example of this visit the Museums banking exhibit. The amount of money issued by private banks was not chump change. Don McWilliams stated in his

journals that Central National Bank Charter No. 4284 issued national currency totaling $980,400. A complete list of these bills can be found in the Central National Bank Centennial Book. After the US government began printing and issuing their own money, reports in

1935 stated that Central National Bank had $10,200 in large bills and $14,800 in small bills outstanding. There is possibly still some in circulation today. So when youre out shopping be sure to check your change because you may just have a valuable piece of Junction Citys history in your hands.

Tour Saint-Jacques gives new view of Paris skyline


Associated Press
PARIS Its a view of Paris that only a handful of people have seen in 500 years. The Tour Saint-Jacques, a Gothic bell tower in central Paris, opened to the public last month for the first time since it was built in the early 16th century. Only a limited number of lucky Parisians and tourists will get the chance to admire the vast panorama of the French capitals skyline from the 177-foot towers roof: Its open for guided tours only three days a week until Sept. 15. The City of Paris completed a $11 million, threeyear renovation of the dilapidated limestone tower in 2009. It has remained closed until now as city architects debated how best to make the cramped, dizzying space safe for visitors. The tower once was part of a 13th-century church, Saint-Jacques-de-laBoucherie, which was torn down during the French Revolution. The tower was kept not only because of its architectural significance as one of the citys best examples of the flamboyant Gothic style, but also because its great height made it the perfect spot to station observers who kept an eye out for fires, explained Laurence Fouqueray, a top architect in Paris cultural and historic buildings office. Today picnickers lounge in the small square that surrounds the tower, on the rue de Rivoli, just steps from the Hotel de Ville and across the Seine from Notre Dame cathedral. Guided tours are held Friday through Sunday, every hour between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. Visits are limited to 17 people at a time, and children under 10 are not allowed. Visitors must arrive by 9 a.m. on the day they want to see the tower and reserve a place for one of the eight daily tours, which cost 6 euros a person. Theyve been selling out since the tower opened on July 5, Fouqueray says. Turning the tower into a year-round tourist attraction would require additional renovations, such as building higher safety railings at the top, which would detract from the towers unique atmosphere. It wouldnt have the same feeling, Fouqueray says. Opening the tower to only small groups for a few months of the year gets around this problem, but it has yet to be decided whether the experience will be renewed in future years. The climb to the towers roof is a strenuous hike up 300 steps in a dark, narrow spiraling staircase that can leave a visitor sweaty and dizzy. But the view from up top is worth the effort. Virtually every Paris monument can be spied in a stunning 360-degree panorama that takes in the Arc de Triomphe, Sacre Coeur, the Eiffel Tower and the Opera de Paris. The gray roofs of Paris stretch to the horizon, and boats slowly navigating the Seine look like toys. Its a sparrows-eye view from up here, Fouqueray says, pointing out the other 16th-century monuments nearby like the Saint Merri, Saint Eustache and Saint Germain lAuxerrois churches. The project was led by Jean-Francois Lagneau, a top architect of historic monuments in Paris. Around 30 people worked on the restoration, including stone cutters, sculptors, carpenters and glass makers. On the towers roof are numerous gargoyles and five large statues: Saint Jacques, the tallest, looks out over Paris to the northwest, while at the other corners are a lion, a bull and an eagle, symbols of the gospels. After the French Revolution, the towers bells were melted down for their metal. They havent been replaced. The tower has been the site of a number of unusual occupations over the centuries: Renaissance mathematician and physicist Blaise Pascal used the tower for scientific experiments in the 17th century, an ammunition manufacturer set up inside in the early 19th century, and a national weather station occupied the towers heights from the late 19th century until early this century making it off-limits to the public. Fouqueray says one of the biggest difficulties restorers faced was evicting the hundreds of pigeons, and their waste, that had taken up residence in the towers lofty heights. I needed a mask the first time I came in here, she says. Fouqueray has been a city architect for over 25 years. She also worked on

the recently finished renovations of the Saint Paul church in the Marais. But she calls the Saint-Jacques tower the greatest restoration in my memory. Each stone is a decision in a renovation like this,

Rapper 2 Chainz Balancing family with tennis makes Federer shine arrested in Oklahoma City
B y John C arucci B y K risti E aton

Associated Press
NEW YORK Since Roger Federer and his wife, Mirka, had their twin daughters four years ago, the girls have become fixtures on the tennis circuit, traveling with Federer from tournament to tournament. But their immersion in the tennis world hasnt made Myla Rose and Charlene Riva eager to pick up tennis rackets. Federer says they havent shown any interest in following in the footsteps of their famous dad (or mom, who was also a professional tennis player). Theyre not crazy about it. Either you like doing that or you dont. And theyre in that part which they dont, Federer said in a recent interview. Theyd rather draw, listen to music, and dance, swim and do those kinds of things, which Im really quite happy about. As long as theyre active and they do sports, which I think is good for them, then Im all for it. Im not pushing them in any way. But if they do it, Im happy to help them out. Federer would be the ideal helper if that happens. He is the all-time Grand Slam champion with 17 titles under his belt. Still, he hasnt won a major title since Wimbledon in 2012, and at the U.S. Open, scheduled to start in the New York borough of Queens on Monday, hes seeded seventh the first time hes been outside the top three at a Grand Slam tournament since 2003. His goal, though, hasnt changed: Win the U.S. Open. Its fun chasing something you want to win again like I did in 2008, Federer said. With his girls with him, though, hes not as singularly focused as he used to be. Tennis still remains a big priority in my life, like it used to, its just that Ive

OKLAHOMA CITY Rapper 2 Chainz was one of 11 people arrested after refusing to get off a tour bus for almost nine hours following a traffic stop in Oklahoma City early Thursday morning, police said. 2 Chainz, whose real name is Tauheed Epps, and the others were arrested on a charge of obstructing a police officer and booked into the Oklahoma County Jail on Thursday morning, Sgt. Jennifer Wardlow said. But by Thursday afternoon, all 11 had paid the $2,000 bail and were released from custody, Oklahoma County Sheriffs spokesman Mark Myers said. The 35-year-old rapper performed with Lil Wayne and T.I. in Oklahoma City on Wednesday night. Police stopped 2 Chainzs tour bus around midnight near Interstate 40 because of an illegal taillight and noticed drug use,

adjusted to a new situation, he said. Federers face shows the contentment of family life just the mention of his wife and children and his face beams with joy.I didnt have kids to have a reality check. I had kids because I love my wife and we wanted to start a family, Federer said. Its been challenging, but you learn more about yourself. Federer says that throughout his career, he has always tried to balance his time with things other than tennis. But instead of an active nightlife, the activities have gotten more family oriented.

though Wardlow wouldnt go into specifics. The driver was arrested, but as he got off the bus, the interior door shut and locked and obviously our officers could not get in there, she said. The remaining people on the bus refused to leave the vehicle, so officers towed it to a nearby police training facility about four miles away, Wardlow said. Investigators obtained a warrant and all 11 people came off the bus around 9 a.m., Wardlow said. They were then arrested on the charge and booked into jail. Wardlow also said investigators found narcotics on the bus, but dont know to whom those belonged. She said more charges could be filed later. The Atlanta-based rapper, initially known as Tity Boi, was a member of the rap duo Playaz Circle before going solo. His 2012 debut album, Based on a T.R.U. Story, topped the Billboard charts. His new album, B.O.A.T.S. II: Me Time, is set to be released next month.

ts Storytime! Signup has begun for the fall Storytime programs at Dorothy Bramlage Public Library. The first sessions of the season will take place Sept. 10, 11, and 12. Storytime programs are designed to foster the love of books and reading, and encourage children on the path to becoming great readers. Stories (told through picture books, flannel boards, puppets or other mediums), songs, fingerplays, games, activities and crafts are centered around a weekly theme. Our storytimes also reenforce the six pre-reading skills important for helping children learn to read and write. Those returning to the Storytime program may notice some changes in this session, beginning with the addition of a time for babies. Classes are geared for different stages of developmental maturity based on age. Children should be the appropriate age before attending their first session. Wiggles and Giggles Baby Time is designed as a time for parents and their children, 0 to 18 months, to interact one-on-one while listening to stories, and participating in songs, games, and activities. Each week parents will also be given take-home information concerning everything

Baby Time with Miss Pam will be held on Thursdays at 10 a.m. Toddler Time is for children 18 to 36 months. This interactive storytime is for children accompanied by parent or caregiver. Children will be exposed to short picture books along with songs, fingerplays, games, and interactive activities with their adult. Toddler Time with Miss Pam takes place on Wednesdays at 10 a.m. Preschool Storytime is intended for children 36 months to 5 years without accompanying adults. This independent class will expose children to longer picture books with songs, flannel stories, activities, games and more to help prepare them school.

with Miss Janene, and Thursdays at 11 a.m. with Miss Diedre and Miss Janene. Evening Storytime is open to a wider range of ages to allow children with multiple children to be able to attend together. Designed as an alternative to Preschool storytime, this session is designed for ages 3-8 with or without accompanying parents or caregivers. Evening Storytime with Miss Diedre and Miss Sarah takes place on Tuesdays at 6 p.m. Pre-registration is required only for Baby Time. For other sessions, adults accompanying children will be asked to complete an information form only. For all sessions, the storytellers request that only children in the appropriate age group attend. Siblings and other children may stay in the YP Department with a caregiver. Each child is asked to attend only one storytime per week. DBPL asks parents to keep these points in mind as they prepare to bring their children to storytime: We completely understand that for some children this will be their first group experience in the library, and that it may take a few visits for them to feel comfortable. If children are upset or not in the mood to attend storytime, it is okay to skip a day or leave the room, as it can be a distraction for everyone. Children

who become upset during storytime may be asked to step out of the room (with an adult) to regroup before returning. Adults are asked to remain in the library while they let children attend Preschool Storytime alone. If the child is new to the library or not used to being alone, their adult may escort them until he/she feels comfortable. This not only gives the child a chance to practice their independence, but gives he/she the opportunity to proudly share what they have learned and/or made with their adult! Bring books home too: An important part of the storytime experience for children is checking out books to read or share at home. Children age four and older may have their own library card.

Grains of truth behind conspiracy fears


B y H ector Tobar

Los Angeles Times


Americans have always feared secret cabals. In three successive decades in the mid-20th century, a Brown Scare swept through this country, followed by a Red Scare, and finally a Lavender Scare, Jesse Walker tells us in his bold and thoughtprovoking new book, The United States of Paranoia: A Conspiracy Theory. Americans heard so many stories that described Nazis, communists and homosexuals nefariously trying to take over our government, our minds and our bodies, they began to see them everywhere. In an earlier era, they feared murderous slaves and libidinous Native American kidnappers. And more recently: UFOs and satanic nursery schools. This is a book about Americas demons, Walker writes. Many of those demons are imaginary, but all of them have truths to tell us. A conspiracy story that catches on becomes a form of folklore. It says something true about the anxieties and experiences of the people who believe and repeat it ... Walker wrote Rebels on the Air: An Alternative History of Radio in America and is an editor at Reason magazine. He doesnt debunk conspiracy theories per se in this book. He doesnt weigh in on the Kennedy assassination, for example, and he

takes it for granted that you believe President Obamas birth certificate is genuine: Birthers make only the briefest of cameos in his book. Giving the reader an exhaustive history of all conspiracy theories is not Walkers mission. Instead, The United States of Paranoia is an oddly entertaining exploration of the roots of paranoid thinking across several centuries of American history. Not only do Americans believe conspiracy theories, they also believe their fellow citizens are more susceptible to conspiracies and manipulation by elites than they really are, Walker writes. Take, for example, the myth surrounding Orson Welles 1938 radio broadcast of The War of the Worlds. In the years after Welles broadcast, a few writers spread the idea that it had induced a mass panic. The truth was more mundane but also more interesting, Walker points out. In fact, only a few people truly believed aliens had invaded the East Coast. A famous Life magazine cover photo of a farmer with a pitchfork ready to fight the aliens was staged. Walker argues that the story of the purported panic fed the notion that Americans could easily be manipulated, that they were a many-headed robot easily controlled by skillful artists using the mass media. Americans fear mobs: They are the dark force lurking inside Enemy Below conspiracy theories, one of several categories of

primal myths Walker explores. Over time, blacks, immigrant laborers and Jewish radicals have all been the protagonists in imagined Enemy Below conspiracy theories. A mythical group of black intellectuals called The Organization was said to be behind the 1965 Watts riots, Walker writes. In his influential 1964 essay The Paranoid Style in American Politics, historian Richard Hofstadter contended that it was social outsiders or marginal movements that most often embraced this kind of conspiratorial thinking. Walker quickly demolishes that argument. It wasnt true in the 18th century, when Federalist leaders and their Jeffersonian rivals both spread conspiracy theories, he says. And it certainly isnt true in the modern age, when the mainstream media and political leaders in both parties have spread paranoid narratives. The book argues convincingly that the mainstream media, following the lead of groups like the Southern Poverty Law Center, exaggerated the threat of right-wing militias after the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995 even though neither bomber Timothy McVeigh nor his accomplice, Terry Nichols, was ever a member of a militia. Of course, with the radical right also embracing conspiracy theories of its own Enemy Above myths about the One-World Government and the like it became easier to portray them as dangerous wackos plotting a coup detat.

All those images of militia men began to seep into Americas collective subconscious. Something similar happened after the 9/11 attacks, when Americans were semiotically aroused, Walker writes, quoting a phrase coined by historian Richard Landes. To be semiotically aroused is to fall under the influence of signs and symbols. A few weeks after the 9/11 attacks, the constant broadcast of images of Islamic extremists caused such a spell to overcome several otherwise rational people in Tyler, Texas, according to Walker. An object made with wires and duct tape was found in a mailbox. Believing it was a weapon of mass destruction, the authorities called in the bomb squad. An entire neighborhood was evacuated. The object turned out to be an 8-year-old boys homemade flashlight, built for his science class. The most prevalent form of paranoia after 9/11 was the mindset that allowed officials to mistake a harmless school project for a jihad, writes Walker. Its all too rare to come upon a writer willing to attack the sacred cows of the right and left with equal amounts of intelligence and flair. Walker is, thankfully, that kind of writer and a tireless and thorough researcher to boot. He also states an obvious fact many skeptics are unwilling to accept: Behind just about every conspiracy theory there is also, more often than not, a grain of truth.

Voices of faith: Those who pray without answers


Persist in prayer
true relationship requires twoway communication and the freedom to choose. It means we speak and we listen. The time we spend in prayer helps us to grow closer and become more intimately connected to God. In this relationship, God has the full benefit of knowing what is best for us and how our requests might play out if we were to receive all that we ask for. He weeps when the choices of humanity lead to pain and suffering and sometimes, albeit rarely, God grants a miracle. Yet knowing all this, that we might not pray for the right things, at the right times, or for the right reasons, Jesus teaches his disciples to persist in prayer. (Romans 12:12) But I dont think that Jesus point was to wear down God to the point of capitulation. I believe that what happens when we persist in prayer is that our relationship with God grows and our hearts become aligned with his heart. God begins to move from the periphery of our experience, from the big vending machine who supplies our needs, closer and closer to the center. We begin to see how our requests affect others and whether they align with Gods purposes. God is calling you to be in communion with him, to be his partner in prayer. So I say, Keep praying! Greater Corinthian Church of the Christ One of the most difficult spiritual exercises is prayer and praying. The most essential reason for the difficulty is that the human spirit is prone to doubt and lack of trust in God. When there is faith, commitment, then God gives a power to help us pray; he is the third person of the divine godhead. Scripture lauds his help, consider: (Romans 8:26-28). For we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us ... This text gives us cause to know that not only does God answer prayer, but also that he provides for us the Holy Spirit, also called the comforter, who helps us in our praying.

5C

Voices of Faith: What do you say to those who say they pray and prey but never get any answer? The Rev. Penny Ellwood, Blue Springs, Mo., United Methodist Church of the Resurrection My short answer is, keep praying. Unfortunately, the short answer isnt particularly motivating nor helpful without a longer conversation. Sometimes we treat God like a big vending machine in the sky. We plunk our perfunctory prayers into the slot and push a B4 or a C7 and wait, not very patiently, for God to drop our desire into the tray. But this isnt the kind of relationship God wants with us. A

The Rev. Raymond Davis Jr., founder and pastor emeritus,

God answers, one way or another

We pray about something and some things. Prayer and praying directs us to Scripture answers. God answers prayer, in some instances, by directing us to Scripture. Any person who is deep into Scripture, he or she will know when God is directing them to Scripture for the answer. God weighs every prayer circumstance we place before him. Sometimes Gods answer is wait (Psalm 27:14). Sometimes his answer is Be still (Psalm 46:10). Whatever the prayer circumstance, God will answer, one way or the other. The negro praise hymn says: He may not come when you want him, but hes right on time.

Mormon missionary county hits 75,000


The Associated Press
SALT LAKE CITY The number of Mormon missionaries surpassed 75,000 worldwide in August, driven by the churchs decision to lower the minimum age for ambassadors of the Utah-based faith. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints reported the number of proselytizing missionaries has increased by 28 percent from about 58,000 a year ago. The church expects the number to swell to 85,000 by years end. Last October, the church announced men could begin serving at 18, instead of 19, and women at 19, instead of 21. Church leaders and outside scholars expect the decision will lead to many more women serving missions. Rather than having to leave at age 21 when many women are about to start careers or perhaps are contemplating marriage and starting families Mormon women can now serve missions shortly after high school. Young Mormon men are expected, but not required to serve missions. Historically, women have faced far less pressure to serve. Men serve two years while women go for 18 months. Church scholars say the unprecedented number of missionaries gives Mormons an opportunity to bring in a higher number of converts, and perhaps more importantly, do a better job of keeping current members active. The church reported having 14.4 million members worldwide as of January 2012. Missionaries convert about five people per mission, according to Matt Martinich, a member of the LDS church who analyzes membership and missionary numbers with the nonprofit Cumorah Foundation.

Nigeria:Young and Angry, Borno state to train youths to stop radicalization


Associated Press
MAIDUGURI, Nigeria Using every resource from psychologists to agriculture experts and security forces, the Nigerian state at the heart of an Islamic uprising hopes to reach a reservoir of angry and rootless young men easily recruited by Islamic extremists and transform them into productive members of society. We are trying to look inward at what is the immediate cause and who are these people in the Islamic sect, Boko Haram, that has morphed into a terrorist network, Zanna Mustapha, deputy governor of Borno state, told The Associated Press. Mustapha heads a highranking committee that is seeking to stem the root causes of extremism in Borno, one of three northeastern states under a 3-month-old state of emergency. One way to prevent further radicalization of the population is by transforming the lives of thousands of unemployed, restive young people disenchanted with life, the committee concluded. A hungry man is an angry man, Mustapha said. The angriness of youth in society has made it easy for whoever wants to recruit them especially Boko Haram the extremist group whose name means Western education is forbidden and which is blamed for the deaths of more than 1,700 people since 2010, according to a count by AP. Mustapha said Boko Haram members are living inside society. Ordinary residents of a typically poor neighborhood a warren of mud brick buildings without running water or electricity told a reporter that more than half the people living there before the military crackdown that began May 14 were members of Boko Haram. In some areas of Maiduguri, the birthplace of the extremist movement, up to 60 percent of residents belonged to Boko Haram, said an unemployed 40-year-old carpenter in the Moduganari neighborhood, where the stench of open drains filled with excrement and other filth is pervasive. He refused to give his name because he said he could be killed. He said the Islamic extremists have split families: In his neighborhood, he said every second family has a son or sons who have joined the extremists. Conversely, he added, the extremists have killed at least one member of virtually every family in the neighborhood. A major problem Mustapha identified is the practice among poor Muslim families of sending children as young as six to go to Islamic schools where they live with a Muslim cleric where they learn nothing but how to recite the Quran. They grow up with no skills and once they reach their teens are abandoned to fend for themselves on the streets, he said. Some have been here for 20 years and dont remember where they are from or who their family is, Mustapha said. Using psychologists, agriculturists, technicians, civil society leaders, security and other forces he hopes to transform these youths ... to talk to them to change (their) minds. Mustapha said they plan to train some 15,000 young people by the end of the year an ambitious program in Nigeria where much state money is diverted to the pockets of politicians and contractors and many grandiose schemes have come to nothing. Opposition politician Babagana Musa cast doubt on Mustaphas plan. He accused Mustaphas All Nigeria Peoples Party, or ANPP, of failing to bring projects to fruition which has contributed to Boko Harams growth. The incompetence of the present government in Borno state leads to so many hardships; so many pledges made by the present ANPP are not fulfilled; and due to lapses of the ANPP government, they cannot show a single project that they have executed in the past two years. But Mustaphas plan was praised as a very good initiative by Michael Femi Sodipo of the Peace Initiative Network based in the northern city of Kano. Anything that will engage the youth and take them out of their volatile and restive state is positive, said Sodipo. He praised a similar plan in Kano, where he said the state government has taken hundreds of youths off the street and employed them as security guards. Throughout the Nigeria, there are millions of marginalized young people. Official statistics say 63 percent of Nigerias 160 million people are under 25 and about 37 percent of young people are unemployed. The poverty and unemployment much worse in Nigerias Muslimdominated north than in the oil-producing and mainly Christian south. Some estimate that more than 50 percent of those aged 18 to 30 are unemployed in the north. Christopher Benjamin, a 28-year-old Christian, said nearly half his friends are unemployed and the rest, like him, do menial work despite professional qualifications. Benjamin helps support his five siblings as a hotel room cleaner on a salary of 16,000 naira ($100) a month that is barely enough to feed himself. He said his girlfriend is getting angry because he cannot afford to marry. My friends are selling onions and kola nuts on the roadside. The lucky ones are taxi drivers and bricklayers, says Benjamin, who earned a diploma in marketing in 2002 but has never got a job in that field. It is the unemployed young that deputy governor Mustapha hopes to reach with the training program. Mustapha said he plans this month to start training 800 young people to create community watchdog groups as paid civilian security guards. Others among the young and unemployed can be trained to be part of the agricultural revolution a federal government project to make this mass food importer return to self-sufficiency, he said, adding, We want to convert them to become very usable to society, the community and the state.

Boards are the life blood of organizations, they should be?


Chuck Otte
Field & Garden the country seem to be struggling with maintaining members. Theres so many groups, organizations and causes to belong to its easy to be overwhelmed. Or you get involved in so many that you dont spend very much time in any of them. Then the people who feel most responsible agree to serve on the board of directors and before they know it they are overwhelmed. After they become overwhelmed the common next step is to resign from the board and it becomes a vicious cycle. Entities are so desperate to fill vacancies on their board that they start begging people to serve. Theyll say things like, Oh, we just meet once a month for an hour or so. Or, theres not really much to it, show up and vote on a few things once a month. But sadly, this approach isnt fair to the potential board member or to the organization. New board members all of a sudden are being asked to make some tough financial decisions for the organization or they are being asked to do evaluations of paid staff and they were never given the tools to know how to do this properly. By virtue of my job and position, I serve on a lot of boards, often in an exofficio capacity. But I also have served on boards of organizations that I belong to. Ive seen the good, the bad, and the ugly of boards from both sides of the table. Ive also had the pleasure of helping boards learn how to be more effective in what they do. To this end, I am teaming up with the Junction City Chamber of Commerce to teach a session on Board Governance. This is going to be a 90 minute crash course on how to maximize your effectiveness on a board. During the session I will help you learn how to determine your responsibilities. Ill talk about the importance of separating yourself and your daily business from the role you serve on the board, which is sometimes a bit tricky. Well briefly discuss liability issues. Well also discuss some of the dreaded mechanics of how to help make sure that your board has a quality meeting including how to plan out the meeting and set up a proper agenda before the meeting so everyone knows what to expect at your next meeting. The session will be this coming Thursday, Aug. 29 from 10:30 until noon. We will be meeting at the Opera House and the cost is free. But I will guarantee that even though it doesnt cost anything, you will still learn a lot from it. The only catch is that you need to call the Chamber of Commerce Office at 762-2632 ahead of time, at least the day before, to register. This session is open to anyone who is serving or may be thinking about serving on a board of directors, an advisory board, a not for profit board, regional board, elected body, just about any kind of board where you have a meeting with an agenda. Please take a couple hours out of your day to learn how to be a better board member and a more involved citizen

m a big believer and promoter of civic involvement. This doesnt mean that I expect everyone to run for political office. But there are lots of opportunities for many of us to serve on the various boards and committees of organizations, groups, or entities that we all belong to. It never ceases to amaze me, or perhaps disappoint me, that it seems like the same people serve on all the various boards around town. I know its the same people because I keep seeing them at board meetings. Someone once said that the world is run by those who show up. Organizations all over

Ready or not, here comes ACA


Deb Andres
Living Resourcefully Whether its sneers or cheers, it seems that when the Affordable Care Act (aka PPACA, ACA, health reform law) enters a conversation there seems to be a reaction from the group. Regardless of where you stand on the legislation that has been commonly coined as ObamaCare, it is important that you understand what the law does and how that will impact you as a citizen. The Affordable Care Act passed in March of 2010 and was upheld by the United State Supreme Court in July, 2012. Its impact is far reaching and you may already, without realizing it, be utilizing the provisions of the law. For example, many Americans can now obtain various preventative care services with no co-pay or deductible. Some of these services include: blood pressure and cholesterol screenings, vaccinations, mammograms and other cancer screenings, depression screening, and birth control. Another feature of the bill that has already been activated affects a parents ability to insure their child. It is no longer legal to deny insurance coverage to children because of preexisting conditions like diabetes or asthma (as of January 1, 2014 this rule applies to all people.) Parents can insure their child on their own policy up to the age of 26, as well. Families and individuals who have private insurance, insurance through their employer, through public programs, as well as those who currently have no insurance will be affected in a variety of ways. Those who have insurance through the private market or through their employer will be able to remain in those plans or can utilize the Health Insurance Marketplace to compare their options beginning October 1. (I will have more information about the Marketplace in my next article.) For those who are insured through public programs, children and adults will have continued service through their current KanCare policies. Families and individuals who currently have no insurance will be eligible for financial assistance to help pay for insurance through the Marketplace. They will be able to access the online Marketplace beginning Oct. 1 to determine their eligibility, com-

pare plans, and enroll in an insurance policy. The insurance coverage would be effective Jan. 1, 2014. Undocumented residents are not eligible to access the Marketplace for coverage and will likely remain uninsured. Some of these individuals and families may be able to obtain insurance through their employers or purchase insurance in the private market, outside of the Marketplace. To assist families and individuals in the process of exploring and selecting insurance, Kansas residents will have the opportunities to work with professionals who will be trained in ACA and the Marketplace system. These individuals, called Navigators, will meet with families and residents to determine what their specific health care needs are and assist residents in navigating the process of enrolling in insurance. It is important to note the Affordable Care act requires that everyone who can afford health insurance must buy it, or may have to pay a tax fine. During this first year of implementation, enrollment will remain open from Oct. 1 through March 31, 2014. However, in subsequent years the enrollment timeframe will go from Oct. 1 through Dec. 31. According to the Journal of Extension, research shows most Americans dont understand the law, and they arent comfortable making health insurance purchase decisions. K-State Research and Extension is gearing up with information and education to meet the need of our community members to know more about ACA and how it impacts them. This will allow individuals and families to make more informed decisions about their health insurance options and the coverage they have available to them. K-State Research and Extension is posting ACA news and developments on www.ksre.ksu.edu/issueinhealthreform/. Because this topic has been so sensitive to many individuals, it is important to seek out unbiased sources of information so that you get the factual information without being influenced by any one side of the debate that continues to surround the Affordable Care Act. To help you with the informationgathering process, this article serves as the first in a series on ACA that I will be offering over the next few weeks. If you want to know more now, here are a couple of valuable, unbiased websites: http://consumersunion. org/research-policies and h t t p : / / w w w . ksinsurance.org/ consumers/healthreform/ aca.htm
