KU Med official decries Medicare cuts
KU Med president Irene Cumming warns planned Medicare cuts threaten both patient care and medical education. At a forum for Rep. Dennis Moore, she cited 5.4 percent physician reimbursement cuts starting Oct. 1 and a 15 percent, 1.1 million reduction in funds for teaching hospitals. Rural areas and emergency services would feel the impact as more doctors may stop accepting Medicare patients.

Statue of Bamberg Rider bust gifted to Hitler to be auctioned
Topeka auction houses sell a Bamberg Rider bust once given to Adolf Hitler on his 46th birthday. Pauline Beatty inherited the piece after her husband Marion Beatty, a U S Army lieutenant colonel, retrieved it from Berlin debris in 1945. The bust, carved in the 1200s in Bamberg, Germany, was later dated to the mid to late 1800s and linked to Hitler as a warrior.
