Brown recluse spiders are the stuff of legends.

The mysterious spiders are, as their name suggests, reclusive. But when disturbed, the brown recluse can inflict a dangerous and gruesome bite.

On Sept. 4, a Harding County man died from “complications of a spider bite,” according to his obituary. The exact species of the spider isn’t known, but few spiders could cause such an outcome aside from the brown recluse.

“It could have been a brown recluse,” said Billy Fuller, an entomologist with South Dakota State University in Brookings. “That is one of the most lethal ones.”

The brown recluse’s venom is toxic to human tissue. A bite usually causes tissue death, or necrosis, at the site of the bite. The venom can also trigger an immune response in the body, which can result in kidney damage, destruction of red blood cells and even death.

Brown recluse spiders are not aggressive and prefer to stay away from humans, but their ability to inflict damage has built them an infamous reputation. 

Although it seems as if everyone has a brown recluse story, odds are most of the spiders starring in such tales are not the brown recluse, Fuller said. Brown recluses are brown, like so many other spiders, including the common wolf spider. The mix-up is common and understandable, he said.

Brian Patrick, an arachnologist with Dakota Wesleyan University in Mitchell, said people also confuse the brown recluse with either a wolf spider or a yellow sac spider. “There are no documented cases of a brown recluse in South Dakota,” he said. 

The best way to tell a brown recluse from a regular and harmless spider is through the eyes and markings. The brown recluse has a violin-shaped marking on its back - thus the nickname fiddle-back. The brown recluse also has three pairs of eyes, an unusual trait for a spider. Admittedly, both of those physical characteristics require a closer look with a magnifying glass, a task most people will likely avoid.

Luckily for South Dakotans, the odds of seeing a brown recluse are low. The spider is not native to the state, Patrick said. Brown recluse spiders live naturally in southern states, such as Oklahoma, Kansas, Arkansas and Missouri. However, they occasionally hitch rides in boxes, packaging, food and hay, showing up unexpectedly in other states. As society becomes more and more mobile, such transplants could become more common, Fuller said.  

“They do exist in our state very, very rarely,

WICHITA, Kan. The Kansas Food Bank has announced a new statewide program to feed poor, elderly state residents with help from Kansas political icon Bob Dole.

Dole, a former U.S. Senate majority leader and 1996 Republican presidential nominee, grew up in poverty. He provided a 0,000 matching fund pledge to help distribute boxes of food across Kansas to alleviate “food insecurity” among the elderly, The Wichita Eagle reported.

The goal is to distribute “Bob Boxes” throughout the state at least once a month, within five years. The Food Bank estimates that will cost 4500.6 million, and President Brian Walker said he hopes Dole’s pledge will entice other donors.

Walker said 6.5 percent of Kansas residents over age 50 do not always know where they will get their next meal. Kansas’ poverty rate is 12.4 percent, with nearly 8 percent of the senior population living below the poverty level.

“All too often a senior will not ask for help, and when they finally do, they are embarrassed because they are asking for assistance,” Walker said.

The plan is to provide boxes containing several complete meals, starting with 24 counties in the northwest corner of Kansas by the end of this year. Within five years, the Food Bank hopes to send boxes monthly throughout the state, Walker said.

The boxes will be sent to VFWs, health departments and other locations. Deliveries will take place once a month, but seniors in need will be able to get more than one box.

In prepared remarks for the announcement, Dole wrote that older adults are a proud group.

The weapons were in place for USC. The Trojans seemed poised to get payback for three losses in a row, and four in the past five years, to their Stanford tormentors.

Heisman Trophy favorite Matt Barkley was ready to unleash dynamic wide receivers Robert Woods and Marqise Lee on the Cardinal’s reconfigured secondary. USC looked like fireworks ready to explode. But the flame never was lit. Against the No. 2 team in the country, against the odds, the 21st-ranked nerds did it again.

Quarterback Josh Nunes had a rough go of it for much of the night, but when it mattered most, he came up big. He threw a strike to tight end Zach Ertz for a 37-yard touchdown early in the fourth quarter, and the aroused Cardinal defense held USC without a point in the second half and won 21-14 Saturday night.

“We knew we were going to do it,” defensive coordinator Derek Mason said. “This was for all the naysayers who said Stanford kids couldn’t tackle, that they couldn’t do it. They played the game of a lifetime.”

Barkley, who entered the game with a nation’s-best 10 touchdown passes, threw none all night. He was harassed by Stanford’s pass rushers, who sacked him four times and forced him to hurry many other passes.

He completed fewer than half his passes (20-for-41 for 254 yards) and, like Nunes, he threw two interceptions.

“Regardless of what happened tonight, he’s still the best quarterback in the nation,” Shaw said. “If you give him too much time, he’ll kill you. Those receivers are phenomenal. We had to mix” coverages up.

After sacks by Trent Murphy and Chase Thomas on USC’s final possession, Barkley’s final, desperate pass attempt fell incomplete on fourth-and-39 from the Trojans’ 25. After the Cardinal ran out the clock, much of the sellout crowd of 50,360 rushed the field. It was the Pac-12 opener for both schools, and now Stanford (3-0 overall) has its first big trophy of the season. USC fell to 2-1.

Stepfan Taylor scored the Cardinal’s first two touchdowns on a 59-yard run and a 23-yard screen pass from Nunes. He will leave Stanford having never lost to USC. It’s the first time Stanford has beaten USC four straight times in a series that dates to 1905.

“It’s a great feeling,” Taylor said. “We knew it was going to be a fight.”

Taylor compiled 213 yards of all-purpose yardage, rushing for 153 on 27 carries and catching five passes for another 60.

“The guy never gets tired,” Shaw said. “He drags people. He breaks tackles. I was called the king of hyperbole in an out-of-town newspaper for praising him too much, but that’s why. … When we need him, we’re going to put a saddle on him and ride him.”

USC tailback Silas Redd scored two touchdowns on 1-yard plunges in the first half, after which the Trojans led 14-7. But in the end, Stanford stuffed the USC ground game, holding it to 26 yards.

Linebacker Shayne Skov, who gave an inspiring speech to the team before the game, said the defense is “a talented bunch. When you have a group of guys like that, 22 guys who played, they play lights out, they trust one another and they play together like that, it’s something special.”

Lee had 100 yards on eight catches with a long of 23 yards. Woods caught just four passes for 38 yards, his longest 24 yards. The secondary did a superb job of containing them. “We came in without any doubt,” cornerback Terrence Brown said.

While Nunes was just 15-for-32 for 215 yards, he kept the decisive drive alive with his feet, scrambling 12 yards on a critical 3rd-and-10 play.

“I can’t say enough about Josh Nunes,” Shaw said. “He did not play a perfect game. He’s got to play so much better; he wants to play so much better. But, you know what, he made some unbelievable runs.”

An Irish tabloid newspaper broke ranks with its British and Irish rivals to publish topless pictures of the wife of Prince William on Saturday, angering its British co-owners and risking legal action from the royal family.



The royal couple have already begun action against the French magazine Closer for publishing a dozen shots of Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge the former Kate Middleton taken as she slipped off her bikini top while sunbathing at a secluded French country house.


The Irish Daily Star published a two-page spread of 10 photographs of the duchess from Closer magazine under the headline “Angry Kate to sue mag over snaps”. A teaser headline on the front page promised “the magazine shots everyone wants to see”.


A spokeswoman for Prince William condemned the publications, saying: “There can be no motivation for this action other than greed.”


An Italian gossip magazine said it would follow suit with a by publishing a 26-page reportage on the duchess on Monday that would include the pictures.


“I did this as a service to our readers, I’m a little taken aback by the reaction in the UK,” Irish Daily Star editor Mike O’Kane told the BBC.


“It only seems to be an issue in the UK because she is your future queen. But from our point of view in Ireland, Kate Middleton is just another of the fantastic line of celebrities.”








Prince William, Kate ‘hugely saddened’ by publication of topless photos


The British media group Northern and Shell, which owns 50 percent of the Irish Star, said it had no editorial control over the paper and accused it of a “grotesque” invasion of privacy.


The group, which publishes the Daily Express and Daily Star in Britain, said it was consulting lawyers over what it considered a “serious breach of contract”.


Considering response
The Irish media group Independent News and Media, which owns the other 50 percent, declined immediate comment.

The office of Prince William, second in line to the British throne, said in a statement that it would not comment on possible legal action other than saying “all proportionate responses” would be kept under review.


“Any such publication would serve no purpose other than to cause further, entirely unjustifiable upset to the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, who were enjoying time alone together in the privacy of a relative’s home,” it said.


Kate, William file lawsuit after French magazine publishes topless photo


The pictures have reignited a debate over privacy and freedom of the press, especially in Britain, where media could face new regulations after a series of publishing scandals.


All British papers have refrained from publishing the photographs, including the Sun, the only British title to run pictures of William’s brother Harry naked in a Las Vegas hotel last month.


Italy’s Chi magazine said its special edition on Monday would include some unpublished shots of the royal couple.


“The fact that we are dealing with the future British monarchs makes it certainly more interesting and in line with a modern conception of the monarchy,” Chi Editor in Chief Alfonso Signorini said.


Both Chi and Closer are controlled by the Italian publisher Mondadori, part of the media empire of former prime minister Silvio Berlusconi and chaired by his daughter Marina.




Diana friend: ‘History repeating itself’ with Kate


Closer’s pictures, already circulating widely on the Internet, were also picked up by several foreign publications.


The Greek newspaper Eleftheros Typos had two photographs of the duchess, one showing her topless, on its front page.


“Her picture will be probably available online until the end of the earth. But it’s not the end of the world,” commentator Maria Laura Rodota wrote in Italy’s biggest daily, Corriere della Sera.

WICHITA, Kan. A federal appeals court has overturned the prison sentences of two Texas brothers who ran a hunting camp in Kansas where hunters paid thousands of dollars to illegally shoot deer, sending the case back to district court where the men will be resentenced.

The 10th Circuit Court of Appeals said in its decision Thursday that the district court made a mistake in sentencing James and Marlin Butler by basing the value of the wildlife on the full price of a guided hunt rather than the actual value of the animals.

The Butlers, of Martinsville, Texas, ran Camp Lone Star near Coldwater, Kan. James Butler owned the camp and was sentenced last year to 41 months in prison and ordered to pay a ,000 fine and ,000 in restitution to the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks. Marlin Butler, who worked as a guide, was sentenced to 27 months in prison and ordered to pay a ,000 fine and ,000 in restitution.

The federal investigation into Camp Lone Star is believed to be one of the largest criminal prosecutions involving the illegal taking of deer. The Butler brothers were convicted under the Lacey Act, a federal law that prohibits interstate transport of any wildlife taken in violation of state regulations. Search warrants were executed in Louisiana, Kansas and Texas.

The brothers pleaded guilty to felony charges of conspiracy to violate the Lacey Act and violation of the Lacey Act. James Butler also pleaded guilty to obstruction of justice.

The appeals court took issue with U.S. District Court Judge Wesley Brown’s valuation of the animals involved. Brown valued them at 0,000, a figure that resulted in an eight-level enhancement to the guideline range sentence.

Brown also imposed special conditions of supervision on the brothers, which upon release from prison would have prohibited them from hunting, fishing, trapping or accompanying anyone engaging in those activities.

The appeals court said the district court must ascertain the actual retail market value of the deer in calculating a new sentence. However, James Butler still will be required to pay ,000 to Kansas, the appeals court said.

The court also upheld a sentencing enhancement on James Butler for being the organizer of a criminal activity, but it struck down the occupational restriction prohibiting him from hunting and similar activities.

The appeals court noted that since James Butler worked as the business manager for a commercial deer operation owned by another party in Texas, the district court should have engaged in “necessary fact-finding” before imposing the special conditions.

Once the Butlers were convicted, prosecutors began filing mostly misdemeanor charges against some of the out-of-state hunters accused of illegally killing deer during the guided hunts at the camp. At least 25 people have now been sentenced in connection to activities at the hunting camp.

Prosecutors said the Butler brothers charged out-of-state hunters ,500 per hunt with archery equipment and ,000 per hunt with a firearm for guided hunts at Camp Lone Star and some 50,000 nearby acres leased for hunting activities in Kansas.

The government alleged that during the guided hunts, the Butlers and others encouraged hunters to take deer illegally by hunting without a valid license. The brothers also are accused of letting hunters illegally spotlight deer during night hunts and use illegal equipment, such as firearms during archery season.

As N.H.L. Nears Lockout, Doan Re-Signs With Coyotes

With N.H.L. teams on track to begin a lockout at midnight Saturday, the league engaged in a bevy of activity almost everywhere except the bargaining table.

The highly regarded free-agent forward Shane Doan re-signed with the Phoenix Coyotes, and the N.H.L. Players’ Association appealed to the labor relations boards in Quebec and Alberta to block the lockout in those Canadian provinces.

Still, nothing seemed likely to derail the lockout. On Friday the league and the union had contact on certain procedural matters, but there were no new negotiations.

On Thursday, the N.H.L. Board of Governors gave Commissioner Gary Bettman a unanimous vote of support to shut down the league when the collective bargaining agreement expires on Saturday.

“The league is not in a position, not willing to move forward with another season under the status quo,” Bettman told reporters after the board meeting at a Midtown Manhattan hotel.

A lockout would be the third Bettman has called since becoming commissioner in 1993. The last one, in 2004-5, cost the entire season and resulted in a 24 percent pay cut for the players.

A few blocks away, almost 300 N.H.L. players gathered for a meeting and a show of solidarity with Donald Fehr, the union’s executive director.

“If indeed they lock out,” Fehr said, “is that reasonably calculated to make a deal more likely or less likely? I think you can figure out the answer.”

Bettman and the owners are demanding that players accept 47 percent of league revenue, a reduction from the 57 percent they earn under the expiring agreement. That would amount to a 17 percent pay cut for the players. Fehr and the players have offered to reduce their share of league revenue to between 54 percent and 52 percent.

After listening to arguments from both sides during the day, the Quebec Labor Relations Board ruled Friday night against a motion brought by the union and 16 Montreal Canadiens players to block the lockout in the province.

While rejecting the players’ motion for an injunction, the board ruled that more hearings were needed before making a final determination. Until then, Canadiens players would be locked out, as players would in the rest of the league.

Players from the Edmonton Oilers and the Calgary Flames also challenged the lockout in a motion before the Alberta Labor Relations Board. Those hearings are scheduled for next Friday.

Doan’s decision to stay with the Coyotes represented confidence in the debt-strapped club, and a bitter disappointment for the Rangers, the Vancouver Canucks and three other teams that made formal contract offers to Doan, a 16-year veteran with 318 career goals.

Doan, 35, was with the original Winnipeg Jets when they moved to Arizona in 1996 and has played with the Coyotes ever since, becoming team captain in the 2003-4 season. He stayed with the club through many problems on and off the ice, but reluctantly became a free agent on July 1 when it was unclear whether the Coyotes would find a buyer after three seasons as a ward of the N.H.L.

He put off a decision several times until Friday, when he re-signed with the Coyotes after agreeing to a four-year deal worth .2 million.

Doan had said that he would sign with the Coyotes if the team’s prospective new owner, Greg Jamison, could complete a sale agreement with the city of Glendale. That was unclear on Friday as discussions continued on the city’s proposal to cut million from a 20-year, 0 million arena management fee it previously agreed to pay Jamison.

Other N.H.L. teams scrambled to sign players on the next-to-last day before all business would be suspended indefinitely.

The Dallas Stars re-signed the veteran goalie Kari Lehtonen to a five-year, .5 million extension. That makes Lehtonen, a 28-year-old with two games of playoff experience, the league’s sixth-highest-paid goalie, at almost million a season.

The Canucks re-signed forward Alex Burrows, 31, to a four-year contract worth million.

The Washington Capitals re-signed defenseman John Carlson, a 22-year-old former first-round pick, to a six-year, .8 million deal.

The Detroit Red Wings signed the free-agent defenseman Carlo Colaiacovo, 29, to a two-year, million deal and gave forward Justin Abdelkader, 25, a four-year, .2 million contract.

A version of this article appeared in print on September 15, 2012, on page D6 of the New York edition with the headline: As N.H.L. Nears Lockout, Doan Re-Signs With Coyotes.

Running back Matt Forte left the Chicago Bears’ game against the Green Bay Packers On Thursday with an ankle injury.

Forte went to the locker room in the middle of the third quarter on Thursday night and did not return. He appeared to twist his right ankle while being tackled by the Packers’ Charles Woodson.

Before leaving Chicago’s 23-10 loss, Forte provided the bulk of what little offense the Bears could manage. He had seven carries for 31 yards and caught four passes for 49 yards.

NFL Network’s Alex Flanagan reported that Cutler underwent an X-ray, though the results were not available.

Forte, you’ll recall, missed the final five games of last season because of a knee injury.

The only good news for Chicago is that it has an adequate backup in Michael Bush, who was signed as a free agent this offseason. Bush finished Thursday night’s game with 14 carries for 54 yards.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, who one day will head the Church of England, visited a Malaysian mosque for the first time on Friday, and the stylish Duchess Kate managed to look good with her shoes off and her head draped for modesty in a billowy scarf.

Meanwhile, behind the scenes, the young royals were grappling with the news that a French magazine is threatening to publish, possibly today, topless photos of the duchess taken with a long lens while they vacationed at a villa in Provence last weekend. It was another unwelcome reminder of the scrutiny they live under, and of the recent embarrassing pictures of Prince Harry naked in a Las Vegas hotel room.

But the couple pressed on with day four of their Diamond Jubilee tour, their second day in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, including the visit to the Asskyakrin Mosque, an important center of Islamic worship in a largely Muslim country.

The mosque visit had not been discussed publicly prior to the start of their tour, and since they left the UK a wave of anti-USA protests has spread in Muslim countries of the Middle East, including an attack that left the US ambassador to Libya dead this week.

Will and Kate and their Malaysian hosts were all smiles for the visit. She wore a knee-length white dress with long billowy sleeves and buttoned up to the neck, by Beulah London, according to HRHDuchessKate blog. Upon arrival, she took off her LK Bennett nude pumps (revealing again that she wears nude tights despite the tropical heat) and wrapped a white sheer scarf around her head and crossed around her throat.

Prince William, in a suit and tie, also took off his shoes for the visit. He even managed to look happy and relaxed despite the news about the photos. Ever since he witnessed his mother, the late Princess Diana, hounded by photographers, William has been wary of the media and worried about protecting his wife from the invasive attentions of the paparazzi.

Already, palace officials in London are telling British media that the photos, if genuine, are a throwback to the bad old days of Diana and the paps. But it’s not clear what else they can do besides fume.

Will and Kate are keeping calm and carrying on with their 10-day tour; they have a busy day today, including a traditional English tea party, and they head to Borneo and the rainforest on Saturday.

Wichita, Kansas — “It will never happen. There’s no way they will do that. I mean, come on. I suppose that would get Kansas a lot of attention, but…”

That’s the response of Tom Sawyer, a long-time Kansas Democrat lawmaker.

Sawyer responded to the possibility President Barack Obama could be left off the ballot in Kansas for the November election.

On Thursday the Kansas State Objections Board heard arguments to kick President Obama off the ballot. The State Objections Board does have the power to drop President Obama from the ballot in Kansas.

“I just talked to the State Objections Board myself today,” explains Sawyer. “It was over the issue of me living in the district where I’m running for office… that is exactly what the State Objections Board is for. Not for kicking off the ballot the sitting President of the United States.”

Sawyer was challenged by a political opponent on his residency in his district. Sawyer won, and will stay on the ballot. But will the President of the United States stay on the ballot?

“Well, they certainly had the power today to make that decision,” said Sawyer.

The State of Kansas objections board did not take action. Instead, the board members said they will wait for more information from the states of Hawaii and Arizona on the President and the birth status of both his mother and father.

That State Objections Board is made up of three of the top guns in Kansas politics. Secretary of State Kris Kobach, Attorney General Derek Schmidt and Lieutenant Governor Jeff Colyer. All three are Republican.

“Make no mistake, Kansas is a largely Republican state,” says Wichita State University Poly-Sci professor Jeff Jarman. “The Republican candidate, Mitt Romney, will get the electoral votes from Kansas. But there is still a very active Democratic base in the state.”

Jarman says he wonders what the motivation would be for the State Objections Board to even consider the issue.

“First of all, they kicked out another case just like this back in April,” says Jarman. “The board said no. Also, the United States Supreme Court has refused to wade into these waters. So this would be a highly unusual move if a major party candidate were not allowed on the ballot in November. It’s just not happened before.”

The State Objections Board in Kansas says it will make a decision on Monday.

NBC was keeping up with the Kardashians on Tuesday. How about you?

At 8:46 a.m. Tuesday, the time when the first hijacked plane struck the World Trade Center 11 years ago, Savannah Guthrie, cohost of NBC’s “Today,” was chatting with Kim Kardashian’s mother, Kris Jenner, about her breast implants. Jenner also discussed working out with a personal trainer and welcoming hip-hop star Kanye West into the family.

COLUMBUS, Ohio — Spurred on by a roaring crowd decked out in red, white and blue, the United States used all of that emotion as fuel to pull off a significant World Cup qualifying victory.

The U.S. rebounded from a loss at Jamaica four nights earlier and moved back into a tie for its group lead by beating the Reggae Boyz 1-0 Tuesday night as Herculez Gomez curled in a free kick in the 55th minute.

It was a night when the only respite from the din from a capacity crowd of 23,881 was the moment of silence before the game in remembrance of the 11th anniversary of Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.

“That was an awesome homecoming,” Gomez said afterward, almost drowned out as fans left Crew Stadium chanting and cheering. “You couldn’t ask for more. The crowd was great, and the guys fed off of it.”

The U.S., which made five changes to its starting lineup from Friday’s 2-1 loss in Kingston, is tied with Guatemala (2-1-1) at seven points in Group A of the North and Central American and Caribbean semifinals. Jamaica (2-1-1) also has seven points but trails on goal difference.

The top two nations advance to next year’s six-team regional finals, which will produce three qualifiers for the 2014 tournament in Brazil.

Seeking its seventh straight World Cup appearance, the U.S. plays at virtually eliminated Antigua and Barbuda on Oct. 12, then completes the semis four days later against Guatemala at Kansas City, Kan.

I feel comfortable on the ball, on a free kick, striking the
ball. Thankfully coach had confidence in me. So did
my teammates. I struck it and it went in.


American forward Herculez Gomez

Coach Jurgen Klinsmann celebrated the win — then moved onto the next hurdle.

“We know it’s not done yet,” he said. “We know it’s down to the wire. That’s what World Cup qualifiers are about.”

After hitting the frame three times in a dominant first half as goalkeeper Dwayne Miller made several sparkling saves, the U.S. went ahead following a foul by Rodolph Austin on Clint Dempsey. Gomez’s drive from 28 yards went over the defensive wall and to the left of a diving Miller, who was only able to lightly brush the ball with his fingertips.

“That was my distance,” Gomez said with a grin.

The instant the ball found the net, Gomez knew the gravity what it meant to his team’s qualifying chances.

“It was important for us to regroup after what happened in Jamaica,” Gomez said. “We knew it wasn’t our best performance, and we had to step forward and apply today. With the help of the crowd, we pushed deep and persevered. It wasn’t always pretty, but I think we did it very well.”

The rowdy, partisan crowd — exactly what U.S. team officials were expecting — chanted “U-S-A! U-S-A!” all night, but particularly while the American players came to the stands to thank them after the victory.

The American players said they were thinking about the anniversary. Fans received small American flags to commemorate the anniversary and there was a moment of silence before kickoff.

Klinsmann spoke after the game of having New York City firefighters talk to the team on Monday night. He said one related calmly of what it was like that day at the World Trade Center.

“Everyone was aware,” Klinsmann said of his players. “We all knew this was a very special day. The players were outstanding in how they handled it.”

The 30-year-old Gomez, born to Mexican-American parents, grew up in Las Vegas and was a member of the U.S. team at the 2010 World Cup. It was his fifth international goal and second in qualifying this year.

It was a key moment for a U.S. team missing injured midfielders Landon Donovan and Michael Bradley. Failing to win would have put enormous pressure on the Americans to win their final two qualifiers this year.

“I feel comfortable on the ball, on a free kick, striking the ball,” Gomez said. “Thankfully coach had confidence in me. So did my teammates. I struck it and it went in. I’m fortunate and happy.”

While the U.S. dominated the first half with 79 percent possession, the Americans became disorganized in the final minutes when goalkeeper Tim Howard needed to push away Austin’s shot.

Howard knew that the game would eventually tilt in his team’s favor. The U.S. improved to 5-0-2 in World Cup qualifying and 6-0-3 overall at Crew Stadium.

“This is probably one of the best homefield advantages we have,” he said. “We should play here more often.”

Jamaica coach Theodore Whitmore wasn’t surprised that the Americans reacted to the patriotic, cheering crowd.

“It was a different U.S. team,” he said. “They came out early and they were pressing us. We didn’t get any time to play until the second half.”

Friday’s loss at “The Office” had been the first for the Americans in 19 meetings between the nations. Klinsmann responded with large-scale changes.

Captain Carlos Bocanegra returned and took over in central defense from Clarence Goodson, suspended because of yellow-card accumulation. Steve Cherundolo, recovered from a strained right calf, replaced Michael Parkhurst at right back.

Klinsmann changed most of his midfield, keeping only Jermaine Jones and starting Danny Williams, Graham Zusi and Jose Torres in place of Kyle Beckerman and Maurice Edu. Dempsey moved from midfield to forward and started alongside Gomez, with Jozy Altidore going to the bench.

Zusi, playing his first competitive match for the national team, was the lone U.S. starter from Major League Soccer. He glanced a shot off the top of the crossbar from 18 yards in the sixth minute. Then in the 19th, Cherundolo’s shot bounced off the near post after Miller got a hand on the ball.

Williams, playing his best half for the national team, curled a 25-yard shot off a post in the 26th minute — resulting in loud, prolonged groans from fans who stood and cheered for most of the game.

The U.S. outshot Jamaica 10-3, including 8-0 in the first half — quite a turnaround from Friday when the Americans were outshot 9-7 in a match played on a field criticized by the U.S. players.

“We moved the ball around, played with great emotion, and we’re happy to get the points,” Dempsey said.

NOTES: Guatemala won 1-0 at Antigua on a 26th-minute goal by Carlos Ruiz. … Mexico (4-0) became the first nation to advance to next year’s six-team CONCACAF finals, winning 1-0 at home against Costa Rica in Group B on a 61st-minute goal by Javier Hernandez.

Wichita, Kansas — The Kansas Policy Institute (KPI) is asking the Sedgwick County district attorney’s office to investigate USD 259. The KPI filed an open records complaint against the school district.

“This is becoming an epidemic of local governments,” says Dave Trabert with KPI. “I should point out state government is great and has been regardless the administration. But local governments are a different issue.”

Trabert says his group has asked twice to see student achievement numbers.

“And twice they said no,” says Trabert.

The numbers were brought up in open court. There is a lawsuit, Gannon V. State of Kansas, that just wrapped in court last month. The lawsuit is going after more school funding from the State of Kansas.

But some school board members with USD 259 in Wichita say, the numbers brought up in court are preliminary numbers. That’s the reason they are not handing them over to KPI.

“We have worked very hard over the years to be very forthright and we’ve tried to disclose the information when we have it,” says Lynn Rogers.

Rogers is a board member for USD 259.

“And that’s what we’re planning to do with this,” says Rogers. “But this latest data set IS preliminary.”

Trabert says that’s not good enough.

“Kansas Open Records Act… Kansans are entitled by law to have access to information that is public and falls under KORA,” says Trabert. “People are entitled to know how their money is being spent or what the government entity is doing. What are the outcomes? They’re entitled to see that information.  And it you don’t take it to the next step and try to have the law enforced, then it only becomes worse for the next person who comes in.”

A spokeswoman for the Sedgwick County District Attorney’s office says an investigation is not out of the question with this response:

“If it appears there is a possible violation, after initial review, the matter will be investigated further.”

Trabert says school districts in Dodge City, Hutchinson and Kansas City have already given the preliminary data to the KPI.

But Trabert says his group wants transparency across the board. The KPI plans on being at the Sedgwick County Commission meeting Wednesday. KPI wants the county commission to force the Greater Wichita Economic Development Coalition to turn over data it deems is public, under KORA.

“We are going to continue to pursue open records violations until we get the laws established or changes,” explains Trabert, “whatever has to be, so that there is real transparency and that the taxpayers have no issue getting the information they are entitled to.”

Rogers says the school numbers will be released, publicly, in about two weeks.

“We have not even seen the exact numbers yet,” explains Rogers. “We only have preliminary numbers at this point.”

(For U.S. Open news, see TENN .)

Sept. 11 (Bloomberg) — After ending a 76-year British men’s tennis drought with a victory that took almost five hours, Andy Murray struggled to turn a grimace into a smile as he accepted the U.S. Open winner’s trophy.

Murray, who ended his personal streak of futility as well, beat defending champion Novak Djokovic 7-6 (12-10), 7-5, 2-6, 3- 6, 6-2 in a four-hour, 54-minute match that tied the record for the longest final at the National Tennis Center in New York.

It was the first win for a British man at a major tennis tournament since Fred Perry won the U.S. National Championship – the predecessor to the U.S. Open — in 1936 for the last of his 10 major titles.

“When I was serving for the match, there’s a sense of how big a moment that is in British tennis history,” Murray told reporters. “I hope it inspires some kids to play tennis and also takes away the notion that British tennis players choke.”

Murray’s breakthrough in his 28th Grand Slam event came after four runner-up finishes. He lost the final of the 2011 Australian Open to Djokovic and was beaten by Roger Federer of Switzerland in three others: at the 2008 U.S. Open, in Australia in 2010 and this year at Wimbledon.

Since professionals began playing majors in 1968, the only other man who lost his first four Grand Slam finals is Ivan Lendl, who is now Murray’s coach. Lendl went on to win eight.

Murray, 25, the No. 3 seed, was watched from the stands by fellow Scots — including actor Sean Connery and Manchester United soccer manager Alex Ferguson — and his victory was lauded by the London-based Press Association as among “Great British Sporting Moments.”

Murray’s Paycheck

Murray earned 4500.9 million for the win in Arthur Ashe Stadium, bringing his career prize money to more than million. Djokovic earned 0,000 and a 0,000 bonus for having won the U.S. Open Series of tournaments leading up to the Grand Slam event.

Djokovic, 25, was the 2-5 favorite at the Las Vegas Hotel’s Super Book, translating to a 71 percent probability of a sixth major title for the Serbian. A successful 0 bet on underdog Murray yielded a 0 profit.

The match was delayed a day because of rain, making it the fifth straight U.S. Open men’s final pushed to a Monday by bad weather after 21 years of on-time finishes. Though it was dry last night, a swirling wind bothered both players.

“It was incredibly tricky conditions and, after the third and fourth sets, it was mentally tough for me,” Murray said while accepting the winner’s trophy. “I don’t know how I managed to come through in the end.”

Final Point

After a Djokovic forehand sailed just long to give Murray the title, the Scot slowly lifted his hands to his face and then squatted on the court. Exhausted and exhilarated, he fought back grimaces while accepting the champion’s trophy.

Murray, who said he cried on the court after the win, was asked during a post-match news conference why he still wasn’t smiling.

“I don’t know if it’s disbelief or whatever,” he said. “I’m very, very happy on the inside. I’m sorry if I’m not showing it as you would like.”

The only other U.S. Open final to last as long was in 1988, when Mats Wilander of Sweden defeated Lendl, also in four hours and 54 minutes.

Five-Set Win

If the second-seeded Djokovic had won the fifth set, he would have become the first person to come back from a two-set deficit to capture the U.S. Open title in 63 years. Pancho Gonzales defeated Ted Schroeder 16-18, 2-6, 6-1, 6-2, 6-4 in an all-American final in 1949.

“It wasn’t to be,” Djokovic said during the trophy presentation. “I gave it all, and it was another tremendous match to be a part of. Up until the last moment, it was definitely enjoyable.”

The win broke a stranglehold on major titles by Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Djokovic, who combined to win 29 of the previous 30. Juan Martin Del Potro’s 2009 U.S. Open victory was the lone exception.

It also made 2012 the first year since 2003 in which all four men’s Grand Slam titles have been won by different players — Djokovic won the Australian Open in January, Nadal took the French Open title in June and Federer captured the Wimbledon crown in July.

Swirling Wind

There were four service breaks in the first eight games of the opening set as the players tried to adjust to the swirling 16 mile-per-hour (26 kilometer-per-hour) wind. Playing tentatively instead of going for winners, the two men exchanged 54 strokes on one point in the sixth game of the 87-minute set. The tiebreaker lasted 24 minutes.

After Murray won the first-set tiebreaker on his sixth set point, he took a 4-0 lead in the second set by breaking Djokovic’s serve twice. Djokovic stormed back to win five of the next six games, only to have Murray break his serve again in the 12th game to win the set.

Djokovic won the third and fourth sets. Murray then opened the fifth set with a service break and led the rest of the way.

With the win, Murray, who took the gold medal at the London Games in August, became the first man to win both a gold medal and the U.S. Open title since tennis returned to the Olympics in 1988.

“He deserved to win this Grand Slam more than anybody,” Djokovic told reporters. “He has proven today that he’s a champ and he deserves to be where he is, no question about it.”

Last week, Olympic swimming champion Ryan Lochte publicly professed his crush on “Gossip Girl” star Blake Lively. He was hoping that something would come of his public proclamation of affection for the actress, but alas, he was too late. Blake married her boyfriend of a year, Ryan Reynolds, in a quiet ceremony on Sunday.

Upon hearing that Blake had tied the knot in a super secret ceremony in South Carolina, Ryan had nothing but good words for his crush. He said in a new interview, “I just heard about [the wedding]. I didn’t even know she had a boyfriend until someone told me after I said I had a crush on her.”

Aww…poor Ryan. Now that he has done his guest appearance on “90210″, it was said that Ryan was considering a stint as the next “Bachelor” in order to find love. Now that Blake is married, he will definitely have to look elsewhere as she has found her own Ryan to go through life with. He said, “That’s great for them. I just want to congratulate them and wish them the best.”

As far as his next crush? He revealed, “I met Paris Hilton last week. I got to hang out with her. She’s a really sweet girl. Very attractive, I must say.”

Do you think Ryan and Paris would make a cute couple? Sound off with your thoughts in the comments section below.

Forget about all those other secret celeb weddings, this one takes the (probably five-tiered, very elegant and tasty) cake!

Ryan Reynolds, 35, and Blake Lively, 25, got married at Boone Hall Plantation in Mt. Pleasant, S.C., just outside of Charleston tonight, E! News has confirmed.

A source tells E! News that the guests included close friends only, but also some Hollywood types, including Blake’s manager.

How I Met Your Mother’s Cobie Smulders just got married, too!

The newlywed’s reception took place underneath a large white tent with music from Lively’s friend Florence Welch (yes, she of Florence + the Machine) along with a deejay. According to People, the actress’s mother and sister were spotted grabbing lunch in town earlier this weekend with Bette Midler-who also sang at the ceremony.

News of the top secret ceremony was first tipped by local radio station 95.1 FM, which tweeted, “Hold up, there’s another story that it’s Ryan Reynolds and he married Blake Lively at the Cotton Docks today!”

The station’s Kelly Gukanovich tells E! News, “A few days ago, I heard Ryan was back in town. Then today, lots of signs went up at Boone Hall Plantation stating that it was holding a private event, so no one could get into the area. I also started hearing rumors that a celebrity wedding was taking place.

“I am being told there were around 60 people at the event and that a local restaurant may have catered it. Ryan has always loved it here and when he got together with Blake, he started to bring her here, too.”

The stars’ reps were not immediately available for comment.

However, a source close to LIvely says her inner circle was shocked that she and Reynolds tied the knot so fast, having only “gotten over” her split with Leonardo DiCaprio just a year ago.

Wedding rumors about the duo went wild back in July, but that turned out to be a bit premature.

Bridesmaids star Chris O’Dowd also tied the knot recently

The Green Lantern costars’ relationship first went public less than a year ago when they were spotted together at multiple locations. Once word was out that they were an item, the two became inseparable, and they even started nesting together.

This is the second trip down the aisle for Reynolds, who married Scarlett Johansson in 2008 and the couple divorced two years later, citing irreconcilable differences. Lively’s previously dated DiCaprio and her Gossip Girl costar Penn Badgley.

Congratulations to the newlyweds!

DENVER
(AP)


After 611 days away, Peyton Manning couldn’t wait to get back on the field. Ben Roethlisberger seemed determined to keep him on the sideline Sunday night.

Manning overcame Pittsburgh’s 10-minute advantage in time of possession and led a hurry-up offense that helped the Broncos beat the Steelers 31-19 in his Denver debut.

“It’s just one game. I try to keep it in perspective,” Manning said. “I know how hard I’ve worked to get to this point. I know how much help that I’ve gotten along the way, from a lot of people. I’m very grateful for that. It’s special. I will definitely say it’s special.”

The four-time MVP coming off four neck surgeries completed 19 of 26 passes for 253 yards and two touchdowns. He was sacked twice and bounced up both times without trouble.

Manning got a big assist from another big-time free agent, cornerback Tracy Porter, whose 43-yard interception return of Roethlisberger’s pass with 2 minutes left sealed the victory.

Manning, jettisoned by the Indianapolis Colts in March after missing all of last season with a nerve injury that weakened his throwing arm, took just two snaps in the third quarter. But one was a 71-yard touchdown throw to Demaryius Thomas, Manning’s first as a Bronco and the 400th of his career.

He reached the milestone in his 208th career game. Dan Marino did it in his 227th game and Brett Favre in his 228th.

“I love those guys,” Manning said. “Brett and Dan are two of my favorite quarterbacks of all time. I don’t feel like I belong in their category. But to be sort of mentioned among them is a true honor.”

Manning, who hadn’t played in a game that counted since Jan. 8, 2011, spent much of his night on the sideline as Roethlisberger led a clock-chewing offense that had Denver’s defenders gassed and Manning antsy.

At one point, Roethlisberger had taken 30 snaps to Manning’s one a kneel-down during two monstrous drives that spanned halftime.

“Roethlisberger was awesome on third down,” Manning said of Pittsburgh’s 11-of-19 conversion rate. “Wasn’t much fun sitting on the bench there all night. Great job by our defense in the end, getting that turnover.”

Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said playing keep-away from Manning was the game plan.

“That was our intention,” he said. “We need to possess the ball, we needed to get stops and time of possession is just that, though you look at the scoreboard, they got it done, we didn’t. The plan didn’t come to fruition.”

That’s because whenever he was between the lines, Manning was masterful.

After going to the no-huddle midway through the first half, he led Denver on three straight 80-yard touchdown drives, picking apart Pittsburgh’s defense with precision.

“It helped a lot,” Manning said of the hurry-up. “We’re going to use the no-huddle as a change-up. Once we did it, it went so well, the coaches kind of said stay with it. I was kind of afraid that might happen.”

So were the Steelers.

The Broncos’ last drive stalled at the Steelers 8 and they settled for Matt Prater’s short field goal and a 25-19 lead with 3 minutes left.

More than enough time for Roethlisberger to beat them.

Porter stepped in front of Emmanuel Sanders, though, and returned an interception 43 yards for the score a minute later, and Roethlisberger was sacked three times on his last possession after going down just twice all night.

“That was a great feeling,” Manning said. “I hated having to settle for a field goal down there. … I wanted to get a touchdown, make it a two-score game. You don’t like giving the ball to Ben on a two-minute drive. Our defense had been bending all game but never quite breaking. That was a huge play by Porter. Von was bringing the pass rush at the end there, that was fun to see.”

Manning’s 71-yard TD to Thomas gave Denver a 14-13 lead, but the drive took all of 36 seconds, and the Steelers had possession for the rest of the third quarter, running 27 plays against a gassed Denver defense.

Roethlisberger found Mike Wallace for a 3-yard TD strike early in the fourth quarter but his 2-point conversion attempt was knocked down by Justin Bannan, leaving the Steelers with a 19-14 lead.

Manning drove the Broncos 80 yards, hitting tight end Jacob Tamme for the score from a yard out, then hit running back Willis McGahee for the 2-point conversion and a 22-19 lead.

Thomas’ long TD was reminiscent of his 80-yard touchdown on a crossing pattern on the first play of overtime that beat the Steelers 29-23 in the AFC wild-card game eight months ago when Denver was Tim Tebow’s turf.

That changed when Manning was released by the Colts on March 7 after 14 seasons and chose Denver as his destination for his comeback two weeks later after a frenzied free agency tour. The Broncos sent Tebow to Broadway 24 hours later.

Manning looked as good as ever Sunday night.

“What can you say?” Steelers safety Troy Polamalu said. “I mean, he’s Peyton Manning. He’s the same Manning. Everything anybody has ever said about him is probably the same thing I would say tonight.”

Notes: Denver DT Ty Warren, playing in his first game since 2009, sprained an elbow in the first half and didn’t return. … Also hurt in the first half were Steelers O-linemen Marcus Gilbert (knee) and Ramon Foster (eye). … Steelers star LB James Harrison (knee) sat out, as did S Ryan Clark, who has sickle cell trait that makes playing at altitude dangerous.

MANHATTAN When Kansas State’s 52-13 victory over Miami was complete Saturday afternoon, Bill Snyder walked past a student section chanting his name. The coach stopped, blew a kiss in their direction and walked away without displaying any major emotion.

The No. 21 Wildcats followed the same way.

This wasn’t the euphoric reaction the Wildcats had when won at Miami a year ago – for good reason. K-State players expected to beat Miami though maybe not by an enormous margin.

“Last year was definitely intense,” said senior linebacker Arthur Brown, a Miami transfer who led K-State on Saturday with 10 tackles. “It was great to be a part of and great to watch, but this year tops it. Just being able to be out there and see our offense and defense really play together, we know that is going to carry on throughout the season.”

If it does, K-State might win a few more games comfortably. But nothing will put opponents on notice the way this victory did.

It was arguably K-State’s most convincing performance against a well-known opponent since defeating Texas A&M 62-14 in 2009.

“This was nice,” said receiver Curry Sexton, who caught a 27-yard touchdown pass in the second quarter. “Coming off last week, where we struggled for the first few quarters and really struggled in the red zone, it was nice to punch a few in there. Anytime you go out and put 52 points up on a team like Miami, that’s huge.”

K-State got the blowout going right away with an impressive 65-yard touchdown drive that lasted nearly seven minutes and ended with senior quarterback Collin Klein diving into the end zone.

Klein hit Tramaine Thompson for a lengthy pass up the left side, John Hubert had nice runs and Klein rumbled downfield on a scramble that featured three broken tackles.

The physical play seemed to put Klein at ease, and was a sign of things to come. He completed 9 of 11 passes for 210 yards and a touchdown, and ran for 71 yards and three touchdowns.

“We were just trying like heck to score,” Klein said. “If the ball is in my hands, I’m going to do everything I can to get in the end zone just like anyone else. We’re just scratching and clawing and trying to get better. We made some improvements.”

The early score was the nicest. K-State scored 35 points in the fourth quarter to blow past Missouri State last week, and finished strong to win several close games a year ago. But building early leads has never been its forte.

Snyder grew so frustrated with the problem that he sarcastically told his players to try and start slow.

“We finally did it,” Klein said. “We converted touchdowns on the first couple drives and then came out in the third quarter and on the first drive cashed one in. It’s very important for momentum and gives support to our defense.”

As it turned out, K-State didn’t need much of that. It held Miami to 262 yards and shut down its running game. Five Miami ballcarriers combined for 40 rushing yards, and when quarterback Stephen Morris dropped back to pass he was often hurried by K-State’s pass rush. Though the Hurricanes managed 222 passing yards, Morris was sacked five times and Miami had three turnovers.

Brown had two tackles for loss and a fumble recovery while making it difficult for Miami to accomplish anything in the middle of the field. Defensive end Adam Davis forced two fumbles and made two sacks.

That was a welcome change from last week, when K-State’s defensive line rarely hurried Missouri State’s quarterback.

“We played great,” safety Jarard Milo said. “Week, 1 a lot of people didn’t give us much credit. They said they got a lot of passing yards against us. Second week, we wanted to come out and make a statement. That’s pretty much what we did.”

Added Snyder: “I was very pleased with the progress we made.”

The Wildcats led 14-0 before the end of the first quarter, 24-6 at halftime and 38-6 when Klein left the game in the fourth quarter.

Miami fought back from a 14-0 deficit to beat Boston College on the road last week, but couldn’t mount the same comeback against the Wildcats.

“K-State is a good team up front and all the way around,” Miami offensive lineman Jonathan Feliciano said. “They did not do anything that really surprised us, they just executed what they wanted to do.”

Like Klein, running back John Hubert also watched the end of the game after rushing for 106 yards and a touchdown, his second straight 100-yard game.

But the absence of K-State’s top two playmakers didn’t prevent it from adding to its lead. Backup quarterback Daniel Sams scored a touchdown with a 15-yard run on his first play and added another rushing touchdown on his next drive.

Before you knew it, third-string quarterback Sam Johnson was in the game.

“We had (498) yards of total offense,” receiver Chris Harper said. “I do not remember us ever doing that while I have been here.”

The only negative moment of the day came late in the first half, when the Wildcats faced a third-and-goal from the 1. Snyder called a timeout to call a trick play, and it went horribly wrong. Klein faked a jump pass and flipped the ball behind him toward Harper, who was running from left to right. The ball went 19 yards in the wrong direction before K-State recovered. Kicker Anthony Cantele missed a 38-yard attempt.

The mishap helped Miami close to within 24-6 on a field goal on the final play of the half.

“We got too fancy,” Snyder said. “That was our fault, not the players.… It wasn’t supposed to look that way.”

It didn’t matter.

K-State didn’t allow a touchdown until the final moments, and will now try to duplicate that success when it faces North Texas and then No. 5 Oklahoma. That game has always looked like a biggie, but it might take on added importance after this decisive victory.

“We made a statement,” linebacker Tre Walker said. “But I think it’s up to us to not get confused by our statement and to not get sidetracked. Miami is a good football team. We have to take that and take the momentum from today and push it toward Monday.”
