QUOTABLE

We’ve got to have a very brutally honest review from stem to stern of what we did and what we didn’t do, and what worked and what failed.” — Former Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour, who ran the GOP in the 1990s. Almost everyone asked about the Republicans’ Nov. 6 election drubbing seems to agree that a wholesale update is necessary for the party. Page 10D

MARK MCMEANS, 51, OF MEEKER, OKLA., WAS A SEVENTH-GRADER at Arrowhead Junior High School in Kansas City, Kan., when he became a victim of sexual abuse by vice principal James Jackson. “Didn’t say a word, too scared, too embarrassed,” McMeans said. “In those days, you know, we were raised to respect your elders.” AT TOP: Jackson pictured in a yearbook photo in 1974.

As a teacher and later a vice principal in the Kansas City, Kan., school district in the 1960s and 1970s, James Douglas Jackson, now 72, interacted with hundreds of kids on a daily basis; thousands over the years. His Kansas City home was a stone’s throw from Kennedy Elementary School, and a block

In the 1990s, Jackson and his wife opened a scuba supply store in Lawrence, later adding a pool where Jackson offered scuba lessons to kids. Nearly every step of the way, Jackson was accused of sexually assaulting boys. But little

was done to prevent him from abusing in the future. Last month, the Boy Scouts of America released thousands of its internal “perversion files” on offenders such as Jackson, drawing back the curtain on cases of sexual abuse involving the Scouting group in Kansas and

Fed up with the Obama administration, and what she saw as liberal media bias, Jana Rea jumped into Douglas County Republican Party politics during the recently completed election cycle. She and a like-minded group of people, calling themselves “The C r e w , ” went doorto-door working for Republican candidates. Rea said the group Rea didn’t think the leadership of the GOP in Douglas County was doing enough. “A number of us were concerned that even though Douglas County has a third registered Republican, we haven’t felt like the conservative voice has been detectable,” Rea said. “We got tired of it.” Now “The Crew” has taken over running the ship. During a party organizational meeting right after the Nov. 6 general election, Rea defeated incumbent county GOP chairman Richard Todd, and Win Campbell was elected vice chair over an incumbent. The new leadership team has a more conservative bend. Clay Barker, Kansas Republican Party executive director, was asked to attend the meeting. He said a splinter group formed, recruited precinct leaders and went to the meeting to vote their leaders in. “Groups have been doing that for 120 years,” he said.

Disease blamed for rise in number of dead deer By Ian Cummings icummings@ljworld.com

Hunters in Douglas and Franklin counties may find the local deer herds a little thinner this season. Dozens of the animals have been found dead near lakes and ponds this summer and fall, victims of a seasonal virus that hit the area harder with the help of this summer’s drought. Shane Hesting, wildlife and disease coordinator for the Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism, said the overall effect on Kansas deer was negligible, with 400 reported deaths out of a total population exceed-

ing half a million. But, he said, the disease occurs in bunches, with some areas seeing more infection than others. This year, Douglas and Franklin counties saw more than most, with at least 30 reported cases between them. The culprit was epizootic hemorrhagic disease, one of a family of viruses that includes bluetongue virus that kills deer across the U.S. every year. The virus infects deer through biting midges, or tiny flies, that breed in mud flats. Hesting said the death toll Richard Gwin/Journal-World Photo was higher this year beA LARGE BUCK STANDS IN A FIELD OF GRASS north of Lawrence on Thursday.

DR. RICHARD K. MOORE, PH.D. Memorial services for Dr. Richard K. Moore, Ph.D. will be held at 11:00 a.m., Wednesday, November 21, 2012, at First Presbyterian Church, 215 Clinton Pkwy, followed by a reception. Burial will follow at Pioneer Cemetery. Professor Moore died on November 13, 2012. Dr. Moore, one of the most noted scientists in his field, was born in St. Louis, Missouri, on November 13, 1923, to Louis D. and Nina M. Moore. He lived in the family home in Kirkwood, through university graduation. His avid interest in ham radio led him to study Electrical Engineering at Washington University where he received his B.S. in 1943. He worked for RCA in Camden, NJ as a radar engineer, where he met and married Wilma Schallau, also an engineer, in 1944. He joined the Navy in 1944 and served as an electronics and radar officer on the USS Rehoboth in the Pacific. In 1946, on separation from the Navy, he attended graduate school at Washington University, St Louis. His master’s thesis, in which he invented the VLF antenna for submarines, was judged to be of doctoral quality, and he moved to Cornell to complete that work, while also researching tropospheric and ionospheric propagation. Upon receiving his PhD from Cornell in 1951, he moved his young family to Albuquerque, New Mexico, and worked at Sandia Corp. while lecturing at UNM. In 1955, he became Chairman of the Electrical Engineering Department at UNM, remaining until 1962. Offered the Black and Veatch distinguished professorship at KU, he moved to Lawrence. With his research interests in microwave remote sensing, he started the interdisciplinary Remote Sensing Laboratory where he worked until his retirement in 1994, doing seminal work in both theory and experiment for radar returns. He continued to run sponsored projects until 2004, and contributed to the Center for Remote Sensing of Ice Sheets until his death. His research interests included microwave remote sensing of atmosphere, ocean, land, ice and planetary surfaces; radar systems, and radio wave propagation. Professor Moore’s accomplishments include the 1995 Australia Prize (for Science, Australia’s equivalent of the Nobel Prize); Remote Sensing Award, Italian Center, 1995; Fellow of the AAAS; Life Fellow of IEEE, Member of the National Academy of Engineering; Irving Youngberg Award in the Applied Sciences, KU, 1989; Louise E. Byrd Graduate Educator Award, KU, 1984; Centennial Medal, IEEE 1984; Distinguished Achievement Award, IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Society, 1982; Outstanding Technical Achievement Award, IEEE Council on Oceanic

Engineering, 1978; Alumni Achievement Award, Washington University, 1978. He and his brother were the only brothers ever in the National Academies. He authored or coauthored 10 books and over 300 journal articles and conference publications. His professional memberships and activities not mentioned above included the AAUP, American Society of Engineering Education, Geoscience and Remote Sensing Society, Antennas and Propagation Society, Aerospace & Electronic Systems Society, Education Society, American Geophysical Union, International Union of Radio Science (URSI), Chairman, International Commission F. Dr. Moore, in addition to serving his country in the Navy, performed classified research and served on classified government committees in the areas of defense and national intelligence throughout his career, including the CIA’s MEDEA committee and the NRC Advisory Committee on Undersea Warfare. He was active in the community, regularly attending meetings of the Kiwanis Club, the Endacott Society (KU retirees association), and the Military Officers Association of America. His interest in Amateur Radio continued (W0GYS, now SK). He was an avid traveler, visiting every continent, either for science or personal interest. He was active in First Presbyterian Church, and gave generously to many charities. He is survived by his sons: John Moore and wife Anne (Scottsdale, AZ), and Daniel Moore and wife Mieko (Las Vegas, NV), and his long time companion Barbara McCorkle. He leaves two grandchildren, Elizabeth Reye (Hillsboro, OR) and Alexander Moore (Iwata, Japan), and great grandchildren Colin and Brigit Reye (Hillsboro, OR). His love, his decency, his support and advice was so very important to us, and we sorely miss him. He was a true gentleman, beloved not only by his family but his many friends and colleagues. Memorials can be made to First Presbyterian Church of Lawrence or to the University of Kansas Endowment Association in care of the RumseyYost Funeral Home, 601 Indiana, Lawrence, KS 66044.

more mud, breeding more flies and exposing more deer. There should be no new cases, he said, because the midges and the disease were neutralized with the first freezing temperatures of the year. The hemorrhagic diseases afflicting deer cannot be transmitted to humans, and even an infected deer would technically be safe to eat, Hesting said. But the viruses can cause deer to develop bacterial infections. Hesting said a deer with any kind of bacterial infection would be unfit for human consumption. He said there might be some truth to popular belief that deer infected with these viruses tend to die near water sources because the disease makes them increasingly thirsty. Another possible reason, he said, could be that the virus causes fever, and the animal seeks comfort in cool water. Or the deer could be seeking safety from predators by wading in a lake or hiding in a stream bed. Deer hunter Darrel Norris, of Douglas County, said he thinks there might be even more cases that go unreported. He found one dead deer floating on Lone Star Lake several weeks ago, and stumbled on five others this year near his home south of the lake. Norris said he knows these diseases will kill a few deer each season, but it’s never been this bad in the 30 years he’s lived near the lake and he can see the effect when he goes hunting. “I’ve never seen this before,� Norris said. “There aren’t as many out there.� But they are still out there in numbers. Norris said he still sees healthy deer in his area and even killed a buck with his bow and arrow this season. Archery season for deer in Kansas continues until Dec. 31, and the regular shooting season lasts from Nov. 28 to Dec. 9. — Reporter Ian Cummings can be reached at 832-7144.

Lammers was charged Friday with first-degree assault, making a terroristic threat and armed criminal action. He is jailed in Polk County on $500,000 bond. Those charges focus on the alleged Walmart plot. Polk County prosecutor Ken Ashlock said Friday that his office would file a motion asking for a mental exam of Lammers.

Survivors of suicide discuss prevention, how to cope By Ian Cummings icummings@ljworld.com

to Lawrence from Beijing, China, in 2003, became a citizen last year and voted for the first time this November.

Wang said she applied to Habitat because she

Every year on the Saturday before Thanksgiving, people in Lawrence join thousands across the world in gathering to talk about their friends and family members who died by suicide. They call it International Survivors of Suicide Day, and more join their ranks each year. Twenty-five Lawrence residents met Saturday at First United Methodist Church to share their stories of loss and help spread the word about the realities of suicide and mental illness. A panel of survivors, including City Commissioner Hugh Carter, who lost son Rees to suicide, led a discussion on how to cope with the unique grief that follows these deaths. Marcia Epstein, director of Headquarters Counseling Center, organized the event and said Douglas County’s suicide rate was high for Kansas, which itself reports more suicides than the national av- Epstein erage. The county saw its suicide rate double in 2010 and counted at least 29 deaths between 2010 and 2011. At least one person commits suicide in Kansas every day. The survivors are often left with upsetting questions that can’t easily be answered. To help the bereaved cope with those and other difficulties, Headquarters hosts a support group that meets every other Tuesday. For many, these groups are the only places to share a common experience in a society where suicide is still widely misunderstood and difficult to discuss. Shelly Hampton moved to Lawrence to find support after her 15-year-old son, Blake, suddenly killed himself in 2001. Hampton said he was a happy, healthy teenager who drank

Family ready to ‘feel stable’ in new home By Ian Cummings @ljworld.com

Xueying Wang waited a long time to drive the ceremonial first nail in the construction of her new home in North Lawrence. The last of Habitat for Humanity of Lawrence’s most recent group of new homeowners to start building, she has been waiting since 2008. She was so enthusiastic Saturday about kicking off construction

on her new home in the 200 block of Comfort Lane in North Lawrence, she kept whacking away at several nails in succession before letting her son, Jake, try one. Dozens of volunteers were with her Saturday morning to celebrate and get to work raising the house’s walls. “Habitat for Humanity gave my family a chance,� Wang said. “I’m so excited; we’ll feel stable.� Wang, along with Jake,

20, her daughter, Serenity, 6, and her mother, 70, are Habitat’s 81st partner family in Lawrence. After about 12 weeks, if construction follows the normal schedule, the Wang family will move in among neighbors who had that same experience. All of the houses on North Comfort Lane are Habitat homes. But Wang has traveled farther than most to reach Comfort Lane. She came

How communities and parents overlook pedophiles By Shaun Hittle sdhittle@ljworld.com

The release of the Boy Scout “perversion files” highlighted the behavior of compulsive pedophiles who meshed into society, all the while committing some of the most horrifying crimes against children. The shocking behavior leaves communities wondering how they didn’t notice sex offenders who abused dozens, and sometimes hundreds, of children spanning decades. That’s because such offenders can be difficult to identify, said

Shaunna Millar, a social work professor at Wichita State University. “What a sex offender looks like or how you identify them within this broader scope of society is a myth,” she said. The 15 Kansas men identified in the Boy Scout perversion files represented a variety of careers and family lives. Some had multiple children and college degrees, with jobs as social workers or insurance representatives. Others were single men working in manual labor or skilled trade jobs.

“

People who commit sex offenses come from all walks of life and don’t fit any particular profile.” — Shaunna Millar, a social work professor at Wichita State University “People who commit sex offenses come from all walks of life and don’t fit any particular profile,” Millar said. Pedophiles build their lives around offending, and over time they be-

unteering as a Boy Scout troop leader, all gave him easy access to children. Some offenders then spend years building trust in a community, using their social positions to solidify their good intentions. “We don’t see it because we don’t expect that people are going to mistreat children,” Millar said. Stopping such abuse starts with helping parents and others responsible for protecting children understand the behavior and motivations of pedophiles, said Carla van Dam, a psychologist and author of

ABOUT THE ‘PERVERSION FILES’ About the Boy Scouts of America “perversion files”: ! Released in October, the files were the Boy Scouts’ confidential files kept on staff and volunteers accused of sexual abuse. Known internally as the “perversion files,” the 14,500 pages of documents include thousands of cases — 15 of them from Kansas — of Scouting officials accused of abuse between 1959 and 1985. ! Victim names have been redacted from the files. ! The files were released by a Portland law firm that used the files as part of a civil suit against the Scouts, alleging that the Scouts covered up cases of sexual abuse for decades. For a searchable database of the Boy Scout abuse files, visit kellyclarkattorney.com/ files/.

across the country. Jackson’s case illustrates how society simply shuffled him along in spite of allegations of abuse, free to move onto the next set of victims.

‘Swept under the rug’ As Mark McMeans, now 51, went about his daily school schedule as a seventh-grader at Arrowhead Junior High in 1975, Jackson, the school’s vice principal, knew exactly where to find the 13-yearold at any point in day. Sometimes, Jackson would corner McMeans in the locker room after the rest of the kids filed out for gym class. Other times, he’d simply pull McMeans out of class and take him to his windowless office, McMeans recalled recently in an interview at his home in Meeker, Okla. It started with Jackson rubbing his hand on the boy’s leg, then up to the groin. The behavior quickly escalated to full-scale sexual abuse, McMeans said. At first, McMeans said nothing about the vice principal’s abuse. “Didn’t say a word — too scared, too embarrassed,” McMeans said. “In those days, you know, we were raised to respect your elders.” But his school days grew more anxiety-ridden, as McMeans never knew when the tall, lanky, “goofy” vice principal would come calling. “I couldn’t concentrate in school,” McMeans said. “Go to school, couldn’t do anything. I felt like I had butterflies in my stomach all the time.” McMeans told his mom one day after school about the vice principal “messing with him” dozens of times during the school year. “What a sinking feeling that was,” said Linda McMeans, now 71. She sent an urgent message to Mark’s father, Roy, who was a truck driver at the time. Roy hustled home. The next day, they took their concerns to the school’s principal. “He wouldn’t acknowledge that it even happened,” Roy said now. “He was sitting there protecting him.” Roy and Linda fled the school in anger. A lawyer told them they wouldn’t have a chance in a lawsuit, and they didn’t report the case to police. Jackson remained at the school for another year. In 1976, his teaching license expired, according to state records. Officials at in the Kansas City Public School District did not return Journal-World calls seeking comment. Jackson, who graduated from Kansas University in 1963 with a science degree, started out as a biology teacher at Wyandotte High in 1966. He earned a master’s degree from KU in 1972, and moved up to the vice principal position at Arrowhead the year before allegedly abusing McMeans. There were rumors at the time about Jackson abusing other kids, all three of the McMeans say. Linda made calls to other parents, trying to build support for the removal of Jackson. “No one wanted to stand with us,” she said.

come skilled at concealing their crimes. It often starts with a pedophile choosing a line of work involving children or engaging in activities involving the kids they’re attracted to. “People who are going to sexually abuse children are going to put themselves in the proximity of children, first and foremost,” Millar said. James Jackson, a convicted Lawrence sex offender identified in the Boy Scout files, was the perfect example. His jobs as a teacher and scuba instructor, as well as his vol-

MARK MCMEANS, 51, OF MEEKER, OKLA., was a seventh-grader at Arrowhead Junior High in Kansas City, Kan., when he became a victim of sexual abuse by vice principal James Jackson. The only tangible step Linda and Roy remember after they contacted school officials was the addition of a window in Jackson’s office. State laws now in place — but not in 1975 — would have required schools to report the allegations to police. Mark was transferred to a private school and tried to move on. “I can remember thinking, ‘You got to be kidding me. Nothing’s being done,’” he said. “It was all just swept under the rug.” Back then, Roy and Linda didn’t think of getting Mark counseling, though things headed downhill for him after the abuse. “He really lost his way,” Linda said. Mark was kicked out of the private school, and he started abusing alcohol. “I did that to make myself feel normal, to fit in,” Mark said of his lifelong battle with alcohol. Over the years, Linda said she’s apologized to Mark for not doing more back then. None of the family members knew what happened to Jackson after he left the school district, but Linda wasn’t surprised Jackson had been accused of molesting other kids. “This man has gotten by all this time,” Linda said.

The ‘perversion files’ Jackson was one of 15 Kansas men identified in confidential Boy Scout sexual abuse files released by an Oregon court order in October. Known internally by the Boy Scouts as the “perversion files,” they contain allegations of sexual abuse committed by hundreds of Scouting staff and volunteers between 1959 and 1985. Some of the Kansas files contain vague accusations of abuse, while others include detailed letters from parents and victims. Correspondence from Scouting officials provides insight into how such cases were handled over the years. Individual files were kept on accused volunteers after letters were sent back and forth between Scouting officials. All of the men in the Kansas files were kicked out of the Scouts, prohibited from ever volunteering with the organization in the future.

Scouts’ response ! In their own review of the files that were released, the Scouts found that law enforcement had been involved in about two-thirds of the cases. The Scouts are reviewing the remainder of the case files to find cases where they may need to alert authorities. ! The Scouts have apologized for not following up on the cases. A spokesman for

But police were rarely involved. Only a few of the Kansas men were convicted of sexually abusing boys during Scouting activities and went to prison for their deeds. Among them: ! John R.

the Scouts said the files were considered internal, confidential documents, and that’s why they weren’t always shared with authorities. ! In 2010, the Scouts instituted mandatory reporting guidelines for scouting volunteers and staff, requiring them to report suspected cases of abuse. A critic’s reaction ! David Clohessy, director of the Survivor’s Network for those Abused by Priests, or SNAP, has been one of many vocal critics of how the Scouts have handled abuse over the years, highlighted by the October release of the files. “They’ve had these files for 100 years,” Clohessy said, noting that the files were released by court order and not voluntarily by the Scouts. “For decades they’ve known that abuse was illegal and these allegations should be reported to police and prosecutors. ... They did the bare minimum.” Though the cases reflect abuse from decades ago, Clohessy said the files might contain information that could alert communities of offenders who are still alive and possibly still offending. — The Associated Press contributed to this report.

had been “running with the wrong crowd,” and she enrolled in scuba lessons with him as a positive family activity. Wagner dropped out of the class, but her son remained and befriended another boy in the class. When Jackson asked her son to go on a scuba trip to Stockton, Wagner had reservations. In a theme repeated by others interviewed for this story, Wagner said there just seemed to be something “off” about Jackson. She called her brother and asked him to check whether Jackson was a registered sex offender. But Jackson’s record was squeaky clean. Wagner’s son went on the trip and later began spending more time at Jackson’s house. On April 1, 2001, Wagner’s son told her that Jackson would get him drunk, then sexually assault him and another boy at Jackson’s home. “I was just in shock. I was almost catatonic,” Wagner said. “I went upstairs, and I cried. And I prayed. And I cried.” Jackson was arrested but quickly released on bail. Soon after, the court system that had charged Jackson unwittingly introduced him to another victim, Walt OhnesorgeFick of Lawrence, then 15. Ohnesorge-Fick, who lived a block from Jackson at the time, had a youthful rebellious streak. In a juvenile court case, Ohnesorge-Fick was convicted of breaking into cars in his neighborhood. One of the cars belonged to Jackson. As part of the now-defunct Douglas County Victim Offender Reconciliation Program, the victims of Ohnesorge-Fick’s crimes were offered the chance to meet with the teenager. Jackson — arrested just months before on numerous charges of sodomy and sexual abuse of children — jumped at the chance. During the meeting, Jackson offered to help the boy rebuild his life.

the book “The Socially Skilled Child Molester.” Children need positive role models and can benefit from interactions with coaches, teachers or neighbors. But when an adult goes overboard with attention, gifts or time, it should throw up a red flag to parents, van Dam said. “If somebody is too good to be true ... there’s a catch,” she said. “Bottom line: If someone is too helpful, too interested in their kids and disappears when they no longer have access to their kids ... they’re not in it for the right reasons.” “He said, ‘Oh, you really seem like you’re trying to turn your life around; let me give you free scuba lessons,’” Ohnesorge-Fick recalled. One day, after a scuba lesson, Jackson assaulted Ohnesorge-Fick in the shower. Jackson then started buying Ohnesorge-Fick expensive gifts and supplying him with cigarettes and alcohol. “He was trying to build a sexual relationship with me,” Ohnesorge-Fick said. Ohnesorge-Fick told his mother, and they, like Wagner and her son before them, pursued criminal charges. Jackson pleaded no contest to one charge of indecent liberties with a child in Ohnesorge-Fick’s case. Jackson also pleaded no contest in 2001 to three sex offenses involving Wagner’s son and another Lawrence boy. While going through the court process, Wagner said, she wanted others in Jackson’s neighborhood to know about the abuse. She even went door-to-door, talking with parents. “I remember practically getting doors shut in my face,” Wagner said. “They didn’t believe me.”

‘Like catch and release’ After decades of allegations, the criminal justice system had finally caught up with Jackson. He entered a Kansas prison in 2001 following the convictions in the Wagner and Ohnesorge-Fick cases. He spent a little more than 10 years behind bars and was paroled this past April. Required to register as a sex offender for life, Jackson’s mug shot and home address in Lawrence are now available to anyone with an Internet connection. Those affected by Jackson’s abuse have somewhat differing views on justice and accountability. Mark McMeans said he’d let go of his hatred for Jackson years ago, choosing not to “give the man a second thought.” Karen Wagner takes solace in standing up to Jackson. She helped gain some measure of justice for her son and for an unknown number of other boys who may have suffered at Jackson’s hands through the years. “I put him in prison,” she said. “I’m proud of that.” Walt Ohnesorge-Fick, meanwhile, places the blame not on Jackson, but on the systems — the schools, the Boy Scouts, even the courts — that allowed Jackson to roam free and prey on additional boys. “It’s like catch and release,” he said. “Over and over.” At his home recently, Jackson, stooped considerably from the 6 foot 4 inches he once stood, politely declined an interview request. “I’m not proud of my past,” he said. “With the Lord’s forgiveness, hopefully I can continue to live in this community.” Jackson said he’d seen the recent articles about his case. When informed there would be a longer, more in-depth story on him, detailing the decades of sexual abuse allegations, Jackson said, “I hope it doesn’t kill me.” — Reporter Shaun Hittle can be reached at 832-7173.

15 Kansas men named in Scouts’ ‘perversion files’ By Shaun Hittle sdhittle@ljworld.com

Fifteen Kansas men were named in the Boy Scout “perversion files,� released by an Oregon court order in October during a sexual abuse lawsuit against the Scouts. The Lawrence Journal-World tracked down the men accused in the files, trying to determine if they offended again. Some ended up in prison with significant criminal records, while others were never arrested in the state. Here’s a recap of the Kansas men named in the files who ended up in prison for sex crimes:

In 1994, Ashworth was convicted in Sedgwick County of kidnapping, rape, sexually battery and aggravated incest. Ashworth’s earliest date of parole is March 2014.

Ken Tinkham ! Time in Scouts: Unclear ! City/troop: Leavenworth, Troop 167 ! Removed: 1986 !

However, istered sex offender living that request was denied. in Lawrence.

11 government sites down for maintenance TOPEKA — Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback’s office says his office’s website will be one of 11 state government sites that will be offline for maintenance most of today. The governor’s office says the outages will start at 5:30 a.m. today but should end by early Monday. Other affected websites include those for the Department of Administration and its offices of the

Repealer, Administrative Hearings, Native American Affairs and Information Technology Services. Also on the list are websites for the commissions on Veterans Affairs, African American Affairs and Hispanic and Latino Affairs Commission. The sites for the Citizens Regulatory Review Board and the State Board of Technical Professions also will be affected.

John Richard Capra ! Time in Scouts: 1970 to 1984 ! City/troop: Salina, Troop 212; Kansas City, Mo., Troop 116 ! Removed: 1984 ! In the files: Removed from Scouts after a 1985 conviction in Johnson County of molesting two boys during scouting activities. He was sentenced to four years in prison in the case, but the judge allowed him to serve the time on probation. Has not been convicted of any other sex offenses in Kansas. File includes a 1984 letter from an alleged victim’s parent that alleges abuse on multiple occasions. ! Where he is now: Lives in Kansas but has not been convicted of any other sex crimes in the state. William Henry “Bud� Goatley ! Time in Scouts: 1967 to 1968 ! City/troop: Arkansas City, Troop 327 ! Removed: 1968 ! In the files: Court records show Goatley was arrested and charged with soliciting a minor in Cowley County in 1986 for “immoral conduct in connection with two boys in his Scout Troop.�

! Where he is now: Goatley was convicted in Cowley County on at least three sexGoatley ual offense against children between 1993 and 2001. He was in and out of prison between 1995 and 2004, and died in prison in January 2004, according to state records.

Other allegations The Journal-World chose not to name the 10 other men in the files after being unable to confirm that they had been convicted of a sex crime. The files contained allegations against Kansas men between 1961 and 1985 in numerous cities. The degree and scope of alleged abuse — and the responses by Scouting officials — varied widely. In one of the more detailed and larger-scale abuse allegations, two Scouting volunteers in Newton were accused in 1961 of hosting parties at which they systematically sexually abused multiple boys. Scouting officials contacted police, and the Harvey County Attorney at the time, Richard Hrdlicka,

launched an investigation. Though the two men admitted to the abuse, Hrdlicka decided not to pursue charges, writing that prosecuting the case would harm the reputation of the Scouts, a local YMCA and several churches. He wrote that he thought the price to the community would be “too great.� Hrdlicka, who served as Harvey County attorney from 1960 to 1964, said he did not remember the case. “I have absolutely no recollection, and I do not intend to do a whole bunch of work on something that I wrote 50 years ago — so just leave it at that,� said Hrdlicka, who now lives in Santa Fe, N.M. Another case involved a Boy Scout employee who lived in Manhattan, and allegedly abused several boys during a Scouting trip to Texas. The files show that Scouting officials spent considerable time investigating the case and interviewing witnesses. The man resigned from his posi-

tion and was promptly removed from the Scouts, but police were not contacted. Several of the other men were removed from the Scouts after officials located sexual assault arrests or convictions unrelated to a volunteer’s Scouting activities. But because some of the arrests occurred decades ago, the Journal-World was unable to confirm much of the criminal case information. In at least two instances, the men who had been removed following sexual abuse allegations had attempted to reapply to the Scouts years later, but were denied admittance. It appears some of the men named in the files have since died, while others were found living in various Kansas cities, having never been arrested for or convicted of sexual assault.

Israel blasts Gaza Strip, shoots down rocket By Ian Deitch and Ibrahim Barzak Associated Press

GAZA CITY, GAZA STRIP — Israel destroyed the headquarters of Hamas’ prime minister and blasted a sprawling network of smuggling tunnels in the southern Gaza Strip on Saturday, broadening a blistering four-day-old offensive against the Islamic militant group even as diplomatic efforts to broker a cease-fire appeared to be gaining steam. Hamas officials said a building used by Hamas for broadcasts was bombed and three people were injured. The injured were from Al Quds TV, a Lebanon-based television channel. The building is also used by foreign news outlets including Germany’s ARD, Kuwait TV and

BRIEFLY Body found near burned Gulf oil rig NEW ORLEANS — Divers hired by the owner of an oil platform in the Gulf of Mexico that caught fire recovered a body near the site Saturday evening, according to the U.S. Coast Guard and the rig’s owner. Coast Guard spokesman Carlos Vega said late Saturday that the unidentified person was found by divers hired by Houston-based Black Elk Energy who were inspecting the platform. Vega said the Coast Guard was turning over the remains to local authorities. John Hoffman, the president and CEO of Black Elk Energy, said in an email late Saturday that the body is that of one of two crew members missing since an explosion and fire on the oil platform Friday morning. Hoffman said the body was found by a contracted dive vessel at 5:25 p.m. “Divers will continue to search for the second missing worker,� Hoffman wrote. “Our thoughts and prayers are with the families.� The news came shortly after the Coast Guard suspended a 32-hour-long search that covered 1,400 square miles near the oil platform, southeast of Grand Isle, La.

He said he was working with Turkey, Arab countries, the U.S., Russia and western European countries to halt the fighting.

Dems hold strong in Douglas County By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

As Kansas goes, Douglas County generally goes the other way. At least that’s how it was in the recent general election. Statewide voters preferred Republican Mitt Romney over Democratic President Barack Obama, 60 percent to 38 percent; in Douglas County that was reversed with Obama getting 61 percent and Romney, 37 percent. In the 2nd U.S. House District race, Democrat Tobias Schlingensiepen out-polled Republican Lynn Jenkins, 56 percent to 40 percent, while Jenkins flipped those results districtwide to win a third term at 57 percent to 39 percent. State Sen. Tom Holland, D-Baldwin City, amassed a large advantage in Douglas County over Re-

Democrats toughen stance GOP on trimming benefits

By Andrew Taylor Associated Press

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama’s re-election has stiffened Democrats’ spine against cutting popular benefit programs such as Medicare and Social Security. Their new resolve could become as big a hurdle to a deal that would skirt crippling tax increases and spending cuts in January as Republicans’ resistance to raising tax rates on the wealthy. Just last year, Obama and top Democrats were willing during budget negotiations with Republicans to take politically risky steps such as reducing the annual inflation adjustment to Social Security and raising the eligibility age for Medicare. Now, with new leverage from Obama’s big election victory and a playing field for negotiations that is more favorable in other ways, too, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and other Democrats are taking a harder line. “I’ve made it very clear.

PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA, accompanied by House Speaker John Boehner of Ohio, speaks to reporters in the Roosevelt Room of the White House in Washington on Friday. Obama’s re-election has stiffened Democrats’ spine against cutting popular benefit programs like Medicare and Social Security. other federal programs. A less generous inflation measure that takes into account consumers finding alternatives when prices go up could reduce deficits by more than $200 billion over the next decade. It’s a no-brainer for many budget wonks because it means gradual, less noticeable curbs to the growth of benefits. It also means about $70 billion more tax revenues over 10 years because automatic rises in tax brackets to account for inflation would be smaller. That new inflation index, known as chained Consumer Price Index, is a magic elixir for budget writers. But it’s anathema to many liberals, who say that moving to the new cost-of-living measure could cut average retiree benefits by about $600 a year a decade after taking effect and mean a cut of about $1,000 a year after 20 years. “Think about it this way.

In all, 48 Palestinians, including 15 civilians, have been killed and more than 400 civilians wounded, according to medical officials.

Unlike nearly all of Kansas, Republicans in Douglas County find themselves in the minority. Democrats and unaffiliated voters each have about 35 percent of the registered voters, while Republican have a little less than 30 percent. Todd said that makes recruiting candidates and successfully electing them in Douglas County different. “I’m a big-tent guy,� Todd said. “Republicans are Republicans are Republicans to me.� The most prominent Republican elected official from Lawrence is Sandy Praeger, a two-term Kansas insurance commissioner who also served in the Legislature. “Sandy Praeger and I would be at odds,� Rea said.

Marci Francisco, D-Lawrence, and state Rep. Barbara Ballard, D-Lawrence, easily defeated their Republican opponents, and in the race to represent House District 10, which through redistricting is now entirely in Douglas County, Democrat John Wilson easily won. In a show of Republican strength in the western part of Douglas County, political newcomer Casey Moore won the 11 precincts there, 52 percent to 48 percent, in the state Senate District 19 race against state Sen. Anthony Hensley, D-Topeka. Hensley, however, swamped Moore in Shawnee County to win re-election 58 percent to 42 percent. Rea praised Gov. Sam Brownback for blocking Praeger’s efforts to have Kansas work with the federal government to establish a health insurance exchange under the federal Affordable Care Act. “I think she (Praeger) is on the wrong side of the issue,� Rea said.

Legislative courage Crossing party lines shouldn’t be the same as crossing enemy lines.

A

t the end of a television interview shortly after her re-election on Nov. 6, U.S. Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., had some words of wisdom for her colleagues in Congress: “Courage in the next few years is not going to be just standing by yourself giving some speech on the left or the right. Courage is going to be whether you’re willing to stand next to someone you don’t always agree with for the betterment of this country.” That was the message she had heard across Minnesota, Klobuchar said, and a dominant message throughout the country in the recent election. It should go without saying that the top priority for any elected official is to do what is best for his or her city, state or nation. That sentiment was clear among a genThere currently eration of federal lawmakers are 17 women such as Howard in the U.S. SenGeorge ate, which was a Baker, McGovern, Bob record number.

Kassebaum, she might be pleased at the number of women she would find in the U.S. Senate next year if she came back for a visit. There currently are 17 women in the U.S. Senate, which was a record number. When the Senate convenes again in January, it will set another record with 20 women on its roster, a fifth of that body. That number also had caught Klobuchar’s attention. She noted in her interview that the women in the Senate meet monthly for dinner and already are “a cordial bunch across party lines.” She also speculated that in an extremely polarized election season some voters may have “wanted to see more problem-solvers” and “women tend to be problemsolvers.” Women obviously are not the only people who can solve problems, and the federal government certainly needs all of the problem-solvers and bridgebuilders it can muster in the months and years ahead. Sen. Klobuchar’s definition of legislative courage is something every man and woman in government should take to heart. The true mark of courage in Congress today is putting the interests of the county ahead of partisanship.

WASHINGTON — There can be unseemly exposure of the mind as well as of the body, as the progressive mind is exposed in the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, a creature of the labyrinthine Dodd-Frank legislation. Judicial dismantling of the CFPB would affirm the rule of law and Congress’ constitutional role. The CFPB’s director, Richard Cordray, was installed by one of Barack Obama’s spurious recess appointments made when the Senate was not in recess. Vitiating the Senate’s power to advise and consent to presidential appointments is congruent with the CFPB’s general lawlessness. The CFPB nullifies Congress’ power to use the power of the purse to control bureaucracies because its funding — “determined by the director” — comes not from congressional appropriations but from the Federal Reserve. Untethered from all three branches of government, unlike anything created since 1789, the CFPB is uniquely sovereign: The president appoints the director for a five-year term — he can stay indefinitely, if no successor is confirmed — and the director can be removed, but not for policy reasons. One CFPB request for $94 million in Federal Reserve funds was made on a single sheet of paper. Its 2012 budget estimated $130 million for — this is the full explanation — “other services.” So it has been hiring promiscuously and paying its hires lavishly: As of three months ago, ap-

proximately 60 percent of its then 958 employees were making more than $100,000 a year. Five percent were making $200,000 or more. (A Cabinet secretary makes $199,700.) The CFPB’s mission is to prevent practices it is empowered to “declare” are “unfair, deceptive, or abusive.” Law is supposed to give people due notice of what is proscribed or prescribed, and developed law does so concerning “unfair” and “deceptive” practices. Not so, “abusive.” The term, Cordray concedes, is “a little bit of a puzzle.” An “abusive” practice may not be unfair or deceptive yet nonetheless may be illegal. It is illegal, the law says, if it “interferes with” a consumer’s ability to “understand” a financial product, or takes “unreasonable” advantage of a consumer’s lack of understanding, or

exploits “the inability of the consumer to protect” his or her interests regarding a financial product. This fog of indeterminate liabilities is causing some banks to exit the consumer mortgage business. C. Boyden Gray and Adam J. White, lawyers representing a community bank challenging the constitutionality of the CFPB’s “formation and operation,” note in The Weekly Standard: “By writing new law through caseby-case enforcement, and by asserting ‘exception authority’ to effectively rewrite statutes, the CFPB is substantially increasing bankers’ compliance costs. The absence of clear, simple, up-front rules will force banks to hire ever more lawyers and regulatory compliance officers to keep up with changing laws — an outcome that inherently favors big banks over smaller ones.” This exacerbates the favoritism inherent in the substantial implicit subsidy Dodd-Frank confers on some banks by designating “systemically important financial institutions” that are “too big to fail.” Even worse, say Gray and White (in their complaint for the community bank), Dodd-Frank “delegates effectively unbounded power to the CFPB, and couples that power with provisions insulating CFPB against meaningful checks” by the other branches of government. This nullifies the checks and balances of the system of separation of powers. Courts are too reluctant to restrict Congress’ power to delegate quasi-legislative powers, but

the CFPB is an especially gross violation of the Constitution’s Article I, Section 1: “All legislative powers herein granted shall be vested” in Congress. By creating a CFPB that floats above the Constitution’s tripartite design of government, Congress did not merely degrade itself, it injured all Americans. Like the Independent Payment Advisory Board, Obamacare’s health care rationing panel, the CFPB embodies progressivism’s authoritarianism — removing much policymaking from elected representatives and entrusting it to unaccountable “experts” exercising an unfettered discretion incompatible with the rule of law. Similarly, when Obama allows states to waive work requirements that the 1996 welfare reform law explicitly made non-waivable, he evades the Constitution’s provision conferring a conditional presidential veto power — ignoring the law becomes preferable to a veto Congress can override. And the waivers make a mockery of the Constitution enjoining the president to “take care that the laws be faithfully executed.” Philander Knox should be the Obama administration’s patron saint. When Theodore Roosevelt asked Attorney General Knox to concoct a defense for American behavior in acquiring the Panama Canal Zone, Knox replied: “Oh, Mr. President, do not let so great an achievement suffer from any taint of legality.” — George Will is a columnist for the Washington Post Writers Group.

America, you are an idiot. You are a moocher, a zombie, soulless, mouth-breathing, ignorant, greedy, selfindulgent, envious, shallow and lazy. The foregoing is a summation of “analysis” from conservative pundits and media figures — Cal Thomas, Ted Nugent, Bill O’Reilly and etcetera — seeking to explain Mitt Romney’s emphatic defeat. They seem to have settled on a strategy of blaming the voters for not being smart enough or good enough to vote as they should have. Because America wasn’t smart enough or good enough, say these conservatives, it shredded the constitution, bear hugged chaos, French kissed socialism, and died. In other words, the apocalypse is coming. Granted, such thinking does not represent the totality of conservative response to the election. The reliably sensible columnist Kathleen Parker offered a, well . . . reliably sensible take on what’s wrong with the Republican Party. Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal spoke thoughtfully to Politico about how conservatism must change to meet the challenges of the future. Unfortunately, for every Parker or Jindal, there is a Donald Trump urging revolution or a petition drive advocating secession from the Union. And just when you think you’ve heard it all, just

Sometimes, they behave as if it were morally permissible — indeed, morally required — to say whatever asinine, indefensible, coarse or outrageous thing comes to mind in the name of defeating or diminishing the dreaded left.”

when you think you could not possibly be more astonished at how panic-stricken and estranged from reality much of the political right now is, there comes word of Henry Hamilton’s suicide. He was the 64-year-old owner of a tanning salon in Key West, Fla. As recently reported in The Miami Herald, he was found dead two days after the election with empty prescription bottles next to him, one for a drug to treat anxiety, another for a drug to treat schizophrenia. Hamil-

ton, according to his partner, Michael Cossey, was stressed about his business and had said that if President Obama were re-elected, “I’m not going to be around.” Police found his will, upon which was scrawled “F- - - - Obama.” Sometimes, they act — the Hannitys, the O’Reillys, the Trumps, the Limbaughs, the whole conservative political infotainment complex — as if this were all a game, as if their nonstop litany of half truths, untruths and fear mongering, their echo chamber of studied outrage, practiced panic, intellectual incoherence and unadulterated equine feculence, had no human consequences. Sometimes, they behave as if it were morally permissible — indeed, morally required — to say whatever asinine, indefensible, coarse or outrageous thing comes to mind in the name of defeating or diminishing the dreaded left. And never mind that vulnerable people might hear this and shape their beliefs accordingly. Did the conservative political infotainment complex kill Henry Hamilton? No. But were they the water in which he swam, a Greek chorus echoing and magnifying the outsized panic that troubled his unwell mind? It seems quite likely. One hopes, without any real expectation, that Hamilton’s death will give pause to the flame throwers on the right. One hopes, without

any real expectation, that somebody will feel a twinge of conscience. Or shame. But that will not happen. Because, what you see here is not the behavior of calculating showmen who don’t believe half the garbage they say. If it were, we might have hope. But these, I have come to believe, are not showmen. They are zealots. They do believe half the garbage they say, and they have microphones to say it with. That is infinitely more frightening. So one can only hope, with slightly more expectation, that the GOP will finally disenthrall itself from this ongoing affront to decency and intelligence and thereby render it moot. Until it does, we can only absorb the impact of these regularly scheduled meltdowns. And pity the likes of Henry Hamilton. For him, the apocalypse already came. — Leonard Pitts Jr. is a columnist for the Miami Herald.

New director of Salina’s zoo looks to future SALINA (AP) — Rolling Hills Wildlife Adventure has come a long way from its beginnings as a barn where schoolchildren came to learn about draft horses, so it seems appropriate that its new executive director came a long way to lead what is now a vast wildlife museum and sprawling zoo with more than 100 species from around the world. Bob Jenkins was hired following a nationwide search by the board of directors of the private, nonprofit organization founded by the late Salina businessman and philanthropist Charlie Walker dedicated to the conservation and propagation of rare and endangered species. “Rolling Hills is a real gem — it really is,” Jenkins told The Salina Journal in an interview two weeks into the job he began Oct. 29. “You can see the love and the effort that Charlie Walker and the staff put into it. It shows.” Jenkins, 62, has the

background to know a gem when he sees one. His resume includes the directorship of the Steinhart Aquarium in San Francisco, several positions at the National Aquarium in Baltimore and jobs at Marineland of Florida and Sea World in San Diego and Ohio. Most recently, he was laid off from the San Francisco Zoo about 18 months ago because of economic cutbacks. He had worked at the zoo for seven years, first as director of animal care and conservation, then as vice president for government and external affairs, and finally as vice president for institutional advancement. Now, the board at Rolling Hills has charged him with developing a master plan to grow the facility and draw more visitors from nearby Interstate 70 and beyond to the 100-acre zoo and the 64,000-squarefoot wildlife museum. Jenkins said the zoo al-

ready owns enough land to double in physical size and could add more exhibits and animals without destroying what he calls its unique atmosphere. “It cannot be overstated what a great place this is,” he told Salina radio station KSAL-AM. “The taxidermy in the museum is some of the best I have ever seen, and with the combination of the zoo, and the care that goes into the animals and the exhibits — it’s something I would like to share with everyone in the country.” The taxidermy is housed in the wildlife museum, built in 2003 to display animals from around the world in seven large dioramas featuring such diverse settings as rain forests, North American vistas and the plains of Africa. Jenkins said he will rely heavily on advice from Kathy Tolbert, who has been affiliated with Rolling Hills since before the zoo opened to the public in 1999.

A BARGE POWERS ITS WAY UP THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER Friday in St. Louis. A top Corps of Engineers official has ordered the release of water from an upper Mississippi River reservoir in an effort to avoid closure of the river at St. Louis to barge traffic because of low water levels caused by drought.

Low Mississippi River water levels may halt barges By Jim Salter and Jim Suhr Associated Press

ST. LOUIS — The gentle whir of passing barges is as much a part of life in St. Louis as the Gateway Arch and the Cardinals, a constant, almost soothing backdrop to a community intricately intertwined with the Mississippi River. But next month, those barges packing such necessities as coal, farm products and petroleum could instead be parked along the river’s banks. The stubborn drought that has gripped the Midwest for much of the year has left the Mighty Mississippi critically low — and it will get even lower if the Army Corps of Engineers presses ahead with plans to reduce the flow from a Missouri River dam. Mississippi River interests fear the reduced flow will force a halt to barge traffic at the river’s midpoint. They warn the economic fallout will be enormous, potentially forcing job cuts, raising fuel costs and pinching the nation’s food supply. “This could be a major, major impact at crisis level,” said Debra Colbert, senior vice president of the Waterways Council, a public policy organization representing ports and shipping companies. “It is an economic crisis that is going to ripple across the nation at a time when we’re trying to focus on recovery.” At issue is a plan by the corps to significantly reduce the amount of water released from the Gavins Point Dam near Yankton, S.D., a move to conserve water in the upper Missouri River basin also stung by the drought. The outflow, currently at 36,500 cubic feet per second, is expected to be cut to 12,000 cubic feet per second over several days, starting Friday. The Missouri flows gently into the Mississippi around a bend just north of St. Louis. From there,

about 60 percent of the Mississippi River water typically comes from the Missouri. This year, because of the drought, the Mississippi is even more reliant on Missouri River water — 78 percent of the Mississippi River at St. Louis is water that originated from the Missouri. The Mississippi is so low there now that if it drops another 5 feet, barge traffic may shut down from St. Louis to the confluence of the Ohio River at Cairo, Ill., perhaps as soon as early December. Barges already are required to carry lighter loads. Major Gen. John Peabody, commander of the Mississippi Valley Division of the corps, said the reduced Missouri River flow will remove 2-3 feet of depth of the Mississippi at St. Louis. To help offset Peabody that, he has authorized an emergency release of water from an upper Mississippi River reservoir in Minnesota. But that will add just 3-6 inches of depth at St. Louis. Corps officials responsible for the Missouri River say they have no choice but to reduce the flow. A congressionally authorized document known as the Missouri River Master Manual, completed about a decade ago, requires the corps to protect interests of the Missouri River. What happens on the Mississippi as a result is incidental. “We don’t believe we have the authority to operate for the Mississippi River,” said Jody Farhat, chief of the Water Management Division for the corps’ Northwest Division. Farhat said the drought is taking a toll on the upper Missouri River basin. Recreation is being hurt because the water is so shallow, she said. Indian

artifacts normally under water are being exposed, making them prone to looters. And if the drought persists into next year as expected, hydropower could be affected. As a result, she said, water behind the reservoirs must be conserved rather than released. Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon, Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn and U.S. Sen. Roy Blunt of Missouri have all expressed concerns about the plan to cut the flow. An editorial Friday in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch urged Congress to come up with a management plan for the entire ecosystem, not just the Missouri River. “Until Congress gives a higher priority to the nation’s great rivers, and acts as a referee among competing interests, all of us will pay,” the editorial read. The stakes are especially high in St. Louis. The region is home to several barge companies, two of the nation’s largest coal companies and countless other businesses that use the Mississippi to move their products both for domestic and international use. Knight Hawk Coal Co. of the St. Louis-area town of Percy, Ill., uses the river to ship 80 percent of the 4.5 million tons of the black ore it bores out of southern Illinois mines each year. Closure of the river could force the company to consider something it’s never done — part with some of its 400 employees. “If they were to close the river for any significant period, I think we would have to be in a position where we’d have to look at layoffs,” said Andrew Carter, a company vice president. “... Level heads need to prevail, and this river needs to stay open.” Commerce on the river always has been subject to nature’s whims — ice and floods, in addition to drought, can stop river traffic.

New uniforms, same result for KU By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

A couple of backup quarterbacks played big roles in Iowa State’s 51-23 beatdown of the Kansas University football team Saturday night at Memorial Stadium in front of an inspired crowd of 41,608. Unfortunately for the home team, it looked as if ISU third-stringer Sam Richardson would be the clearcut starter if he played for the Jayhawks, who saw head

coach Charlie Weis juggle starter Michael Cummings and former starter Dayne Crist in and out of the huddle all night. Richardson, who had not thrown a pass all season, took over for Cyclones’ starter Steele Jantz on ISU’s second possession of the night and completed 23 of 27 passes for 250 yards and four touchdowns. Just in case it was unclear whether he was the best quarterback

Self: Jayhawks in need of senior ‘assassins’ By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Bill Self says he’s looking for one or two of his Kansas University basketball players to adopt a take-charge, take-no-prisoners mentality. “We had two guys last year that were assassins,” Self said Saturday, referring to current NBA players Thomas Robinson and Tyshawn Taylor. “We haven’t developed those guys yet. We don’t have an assassin as a senior. Now you are banking

on freshmen to become your guys? That’s not right. “Those seniors have to step up and become those players everybody draws confidence from, because one thing about Tyshawn, it was, ‘Hey, put it on me.’ Or Thomas? ‘Hey, put it on me.’ We don’t have anybody like that yet.” Self, whose Jayhawks (2-1) will meet Washington State (2-1) at 9 p.m. Monday in the CBE Classic in Kansas City’s Sprint Center, is still assessing personnel at this early juncture.

“

Those seniors have to step up and become those players everybody draws confidence from … ” — Kansas men’s basketball coach Bill Self “Right now, I am set on four starters,” Self said of seniors Jeff Withey, Travis Releford and Elijah Johnson and freshman Ben McLemore. Perry Ellis and Jamari Tray-

lor have started at the other slot. “I am not even close to being set on the fifth. I don’t know who is better off the bench and who is better starting,” Self added. “We haven’t given Kevin Young a chance to start yet because of his hand (which forced him to miss two exhibitions and the opener). Jamari has played better off the bench than starting. I don’t know what the answer is. We need energy and points off the bench. Our bench for the most part has played OK,” he added, noting he’d like to

develop a scorer at the power-forward spot. “Jamari against Michigan State played great. He had six points and four rebounds in 25 minutes. In the past, when guys in that position played great, they got 20 and 10. That’s not a knock on him. That’s not who he is yet. We somehow have to get production out of that spot.” Self said one bench player needs to step it up — sophomore backup point guard Naadir Tharpe.

McIlroy to cut back on schedule HONG KONG (AP) — Rory McIlroy has vowed to cut back his competitive schedule next year after the disappointment of missing the cut in his defense of the Hong Kong Open. The world’s top-ranked golfer four-putted the final green Friday to finish three shots off. It marks the second time this year the 23-year old has had to sit out the weekend rounds in the defense of a tournament af-

ter also missing the cut in June’s U.S. Open at San Francisco. Before leaving Hong Kong for Dubai and the season-ending World Tour Championship, McIlroy said he learned a further lesson and will spend the coming weeks working out where he’ll compete in 2013. “Of course, you’re going to miss cuts in your career, but it’s not nice and it’s a tough pill to swallow when you’re the de-

fending champion in a tournament,� the Northern Irishman said. “While there’s a part of me that perhaps wished my year had ended as soon as I wrapped up the Race to Dubai, I now look back over the last couple of years wondering why did I stretch myself so much,� he added. “I’ve probably played an extra couple of tournaments too much and I have learned from

the last few years, so that’s why I’m cutting back my schedule even further from next year.� Counting next week’s European Tour closing event, McIlroy will have played in 24 tournaments this season as well as the Ryder Cup and teeing up in two exhibition tournaments — the Turkish Airlines World Golf Final and the recent showdown against Tiger Woods in the ‘Duel at Lake Jinsha’.

Steve Hatchell serves as the caretaker of college football’s past. Hatchell is the president and CEO of the Irving-based National Football Foundation, which operates the College Football Hall of Fame. When the doors of the hall, in South Bend, Ind., open each morning, the Earl Campbells and Roger Staubachs are never forgotten. Hatchell served as a commissioner of three NCAA conferences and also ran the Orange Bowl for a stretch before assuming his federation throne. So he has witnessed the explosive growth of college football the last four decades. But Hatchell is even more keen on his sport’s present and future than its past. “The college game has never been better on every metric — people who watch, people who attend, schools adding the sport,� Hatchell said. “The graduation rates are up. There’s an awful lot of talk about concussions. But by the NCAA’s study, the incidence of concussion in the college game has been the same as it’s been for the last eight years. “I don’t think college football has ever been stronger.� The other obvious metric is pro football — and the college game compares favorably. There were 14 games in the NFL last weekend for an instadium attendance of 838,939. There also were 14 teams in the AP Top 25 at home last weekend. They drew 1,013,824. The NFL drew a record 20.9 million fans to its stadiums last season. College football drew a record 49.7 million — a growth of more than 12.2 million fans since 1998. All 14 NFL games will be televised this weekend, including three prime-time network broadcasts. There were to be television cameras at 107 college games this weekend, including four in prime time. The edges the NFL has over the college game are the Super Bowl, fantasy football and a carefully crafted 12-month calendar. The Super Bowl is annually the nation’s No. 1 sporting event. College football can close the gap a bit in 2014 when it finally stages a national championship game. That game figures to command almost $200 million in broadcast rights annually from the networks. Still, the Super Bowl has a 46-year head start on the party. When you go to a Texas A&M game, you’re going to see Johnny Manziel. You’re going to see Collin Klein on the field for Kansas State and Manti Te’o on the field for Notre Dame. There’s a sense of urgency to win every game in the NCAA that doesn’t always exist in the NFL in August and December. You can question the talent level in college but never the effort. The arrow is pointing up for college football. The gap is narrowing between the football played on Saturdays and Sunday.

HOMESTEAD, FLA. — Ricky Stenhouse Jr. left little doubt that he’s ready for a promotion. Stenhouse became the sixth driver to win consecutive championships in NASCAR’s Nationwide Series. He finished sixth Saturday in the season finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway, edging Elliott Sadler for the title. “A lot of people put a lot of effort into this and I’m just the lucky guy who gets to drive it,� said Stenhouse, who finished the season with six wins. About the only drama in the race was whether Stenhouse would play it safe. He did, but not without a few close calls. His Roush Fenway Racing team even had to remind him several times over the final 10 laps to avoid potential pitfalls. Stenhouse eventually obliged. “We’re a group of racers and that’s what racers do — they race hard,� Stenhouse said. Regan Smith won the 300-mile race, giving team owner Dale Earnhardt Jr. a victory. “These guys worked hard all year long, and we’re going to do the same next year and contend for a championship,� Smith said. “That’s our plan. Hopefully, tonight was part of a statement right there.� Kyle Busch was second, followed by Brendan Gaughan, Sam Hornish Jr. and Austin Dillon. Danica Patrick was 19th in her final Nationwide race before moving to the Sprint Cup Series full time. After recording eight Nationwide victories last season, Busch went winless in the second-tier series in 2012. He had 18 wins across NASCAR’s top three series in 2011, but has just one this year. Busch dominated the race early, but couldn’t get past Smith in the closing laps. Smith did some smoky burnouts, then headed to Victory Lane. But Stenhouse had dibs on the bigger celebration. Stenhouse became the first since Martin Truex Jr. in 2005 to win back-to-back titles in the developmental series. Sam Ard (1983-84), Larry Pearson (1986-87), Randy LaJoie (199697) and Dale Earnhardt Jr. (1998-99) also accomplished the feat.

PRO HOCKEY

NHL labor talks to resume NEW YORK — So much for a two-week break. Just over a week since the last set of failed negotiations, the NHL and the locked-out players’ association will return to the bargaining table Monday. Conversations that restarted Friday between NHL deputy commissioner Bill Daly and NHLPA special counsel Steve Fehr produced enough positive movement Saturday to set up another face-to-face meeting that the sides hope will lead to an agreement to save the hockey season.

BOXING

Broner takes lightweight title ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. — Adrien Broner stopped Antonio DeMarco in the eighth round to take the WBC lightweight championship Saturday night at Boardwalk Hall. Broner (25-0, 21 KOs) dominated from the outset, punishing DeMarco (28-3-1, 21 KOs) until DeMarco’s corner threw in the towel. Referee Benji Esteves stopped the fight at 1:49 of the round. In the co-feature Detroit heavyweight Johanthon Banks (29-1-1, 19 KOs) stopped Seth Mitchell (25-1-1, 19 KOs) in the second round. Banks dropped the former Michigan State linebacker three times in the second, prompting referee Eddie Cotton to stop the fight at 2:38.

KU women seek support By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

Heading into the third game of the season, Kansas University women’s basketball coach Bonnie Henrickson knows exactly which Jayhawks she can count on to make plays and score. Widely recognized as two of the most talented players in the nation, senior point guard Angel Goodrich and senior forward Carolyn Davis — both Wooden and Naismith award candidates — have carried Kansas and will continue to do so. The only problem, Henrickson said, is KU needs some of its leaders’ teammates to complement them better. “I think we’ve got some (players) who think, ‘I’m supposed to make a play every time I touch it,’ which turns into bad possessions for us,” the coach said. “We’ve got to figure that out and calm down a little bit.” Though Kansas is off to a 2-0 start, Henrickson said both she and the players are frustrated because they feel like they should be playing at a higher level entering today’s game against Wake Forest — 2 p.m. tipoff at Allen Fieldhouse. Only five players scored for KU (No. 25 in the USA Today coaches poll) in its 68-58 defeat of Southeast Missouri State on Wednesday. Henrickson said the Jayhawks must find a way to play with more composure and maturity. At times, she pointed out, they fail to do simple things such as reversing the ball in the half court. While Davis, Goodrich, sophomore guard Natalie Knight and substitute junior forward Tania Jackson combined to score 66 of the Jayhawks’ points against SEMO, starting senior guard Monica Engelman went 1-for-8 from the floor with two points. Henrickson, though pleased with Engelman’s career-high 11 rebounds, said KU needs Engelman to be more productive and confident and find other ways to contribute if her shot isn’t falling.

FORT WORTH, TEXAS — Nine Kansas University players recorded a kill, and KU swept Texas Christian University (2518, 25-14, 25-17) Saturday for its 23rd victory of the year. It’s the most season victories for KU in the Big 12 era. No. 22-ranked Kansas improved to 23-6 overall, 11-4 Big 12 in sold-out University Recreation Center. TCU fell to 14-13, 3-11. Junior Caroline Jarmoc led the Jayhawks with 11 kills, two blocks and a .429 attack. Making her first start in the month of November, freshman outside hitter Tiana Dockery racked up 10 kills for her sixth double-digit kill performance of the season. Junior setter Erin McNorton tied her career highs in kills (4) and aces (2) and dished 34 assists. Fellow juniors Brianne Riley and Jaime Mathieu led the back with 14 and 13 digs, respectively. Kansas will host Saint Louis at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday at Allen Fieldhouse. Kansas Athletics announced Saturday that match had been moved from KU’s usual home since 1999, Horejsi Center. Kansas had played its home matches 1975-’98 in Allen.

KU volleyball claims 23rd win J-W Staff Reports

PROBABLE STARTERS

“You can see it all over Monica’s face,” the coach said. “She misses a shot, her shoulders drop, her head, chin drop. You’ve gotta play.” The Demon Deacons (2-0) were picked to finish ninth in the preseason ACC coaches poll, but Henrickson said their size and athleticism make them a challenging opponent. A new staff, led by first-year head coach Jen Hoover, is in place at Wake Forest, but three starters return from last season, when Kansas escaped Winston-Salem, N.C., with a 74-73 nonconference victory. “We’ve got our hands full, and we’ve gotta be a lot better in a hurry,” Henrickson said. Davis, who tore her left anterior cruciate ligament late last season, has been limited to 19.5 minutes in each of KU’s first two games, but is averaging 18.5 points on 69.6-percent shooting. Goodrich is averaging 12 points, 5.5 assists and 3.5 steals. Junior Wake Forest guard Chelsea Douglas leads the team with 18.5 points a game. The Jayhawks have won 45 consecutive nonconference regular-season home games, dating to a Dec. 31, 2006, loss to Xavier at Allen Fieldhouse.

“In the event that Kansas is selected to play and to host in the NCAA Tournament, we would host the matches in Allen Fieldhouse,” said Jim Marchiony, Kansas associate athletics director of public affairs. The Horejsi Family Athletics Center holds 1,300 fans, and the NCAA requires a capacity of 2,000 seats. KU volleyball’s previous home, Allen Fieldhouse, holds 16,300. “We haven’t played a match in Allen Fieldhouse for quite some time,” Marchiony said. “We would like to regain familiarity with the facility in the event we are selected to play and selected to host.” It has been more than a decade since the Jayhawks hosted a match in AFH. The 1998 season marked the first for Kansas head coach Ray Bechard, who is happy to hear of his team’s return to its original home. “There has been a couple of times (since moving to the HFAC) that we’ve played in there before Late Night in the Phog and it was a great experience for our girls back then,” Bechard said. “Now, even with these new set of circumstances, it’s still a great experience for our team to play in historic Allen Fieldhouse, not only in a regular-season match but possibly during a postseason, as well.”

“His man scored nine straight points on him the other day,” Self said of Chattanooga’s Farad Cobb, who scored 18 the first half. “He (Tharpe) has to run the team, be poised and guard and take care of the ball. The responsibility is easy compared to somebody who has to make shots in order to play well. I just think his effort defensively is at the point where it has to improve, or we’re going to seriously have to go in a different direction. We need him. But if you are not making shots and you are not guarding, that’s a bad combination.” Tharpe said he needed to “put more pressure on

Baker football falls in playoffs J-W Staff Reports

FORT WAYNE, IND. — Baker University’s football season ended with a 22-17 loss to St. Francis in the first round of the NAIA Football Championship Series on Saturday. On their final drive, the 11th-ranked Wildcats drove to the USF 48, but the possession ended with an interception, and the No. 6 Cougars held on for their 17th straight home victory in the playoffs. Baker (8-3) held USF (92) to just 3.1 yards per carry for 41 carries (126 yards). Dillon Baxter led Baker with 102 yards on 22 carries, and Sam Vossen completed 17 of 29 passes for 203 yards. Scott Schrag led the Wildcats with 16 tackles, and Ryder Werts had 15 with a sack and 21⁄2 tackles for loss.

Clyde Lovellette says he is humbled and honored by today’s induction into the National Collegiate Basketball Hall of Fame. “I think it’s great. It’s always great to get recognized as old as I am,” joked the 83-year-old former Kansas University center, who is a member of the 10-person Class of 2012. Others to be inducted in a 7:30 p.m. ceremony at The Midland in Kansas City, Mo.: Patrick Ewing (Georgetown), Phil Ford (North Carolina), Joe B. Hall (Kentucky), Dave Robbins (Virginia Union), Kenny Sailors (Wyoming), Earl Monroe (Winston Salem State), Willis Reed (Grambling), Jim Host (founded Host Communications) and Joe Dean (Louisiana State University). “At the University of Kansas, I had a lot of great honors,” the 6-foot-10, three-time All-American told the Journal-World in a phone interview. He currently lives in North Manchester, Ind. “There’s the 1952 (national title) team, the Olympic gold medal (’52 in Helsinki), the (Naismith Memorial) Hall of Fame in Springfield, Mass., and now this one in Kansas City. I always said the gold medal was the greatest one because it was for the United States, Kansas, Kansas University and myself and the team. The Hall of Fame is such an honor. I credit all the guys I played with at the University of Kansas. Without them, I wouldn’t be where I am today.” Lovellette’s KU teammate, Bill Lienhard, is to introduce Lovellette at the ceremony.

“Clyde was really dominant in his day,” Lienhard said. “If he had the ball around the basket, he got it in there. He was not only a good scorer, but a good shooter. “You couldn’t dunk in 1952. He had to shoot to get everything in the basket for 28 points a game. Everybody likes Clyde,” Lienhard added of the three-time NBA champion (twice with Boston, once with Minneapolis). “Clyde is a real gentleman, bornagain Christian and great guy.” He also was a “tough guy,” Lienhard added. “If anybody guarded him too close ... he had a sweeping hook shot,” Lienhard said. “That left elbow would go out when he went in (toward goal). More than one center got an elbow in his jaw on the turn. He was a good scorer, rebounder and very tough.” Lovellette was the first player to win championships in the NCAA, AAU, NBA and Olympics. He led the Big Seven Conference in scoring in each of his three seasons. He was the country’s top scorer in 1952 at 28.6 points per game and was named the Most Outstanding Player of the 1952 NCAA Tournament. He ranks as the No. 4 scorer in KU history with 1,979 career points (24.7 ppg) and No. 11 alltime leading rebounder with 813 (10.2 rpg). He had a 12-year NBA career with stops at Minneapolis, Cincinnati, St. Louis and Boston. Since retiring from hoops after the 1964 season, he worked in the area of law enforcement and juvenile counseling in his native state of Indiana. He was elected to the KU Athletics Hall of Fame in May, 1988.

point guard at Washington State. He has averaged 7.7 points with 10 assists against nine turnovers while logging an average of 31.3 minutes a game. He has made eight of 18 shots (44.4 percent) and four of eight threes. “Royce is their point guard. It’ll be fun seeing him again,” center Jeff Withey said of his former teammate who sat out last season at WSU in accordance with NCAA transfer rules. !

Still out: There’s no change in the status of freshmen big men Landen Lucas and Zach Peters. Lucas is being red-shirted barring any injury to a KU big man, while Peters is expected to red-shirt because of his ongoing rotator-cuff problems. Peters has yet to practice this season.

KANSAS STATE QUARTERBACK COLLIN KLEIN (7) LIES ON THE TURF after he was sacked by Baylor defensive end Chris McAllister, not shown, with Nick Johnson (76) and Gary Mason Jr. (10) looking on during the third quarter on Saturday in Waco Texas. No. 2 K-State lost, 52-24.

Bears crush KSU’s title hopes WACO, TEXAS (AP) — Collin Klein and secondranked Kansas State can still get to a BCS game. Getting to the BCS championship game is all but lost. Glasco Martin ran for three touchdowns, Lache Seastrunk had 185 yards rushing with an 80-yard score, and Baylor again upset the BCS picture with a late-season victory, beating the Wildcats, 5224, Saturday night. A week after the Wildcats (10-1, 7-1 Big 12) took over the No. 1 spot in the BCS standings following defending national champion Alabama’s loss, it now looks like it’s going to somebody else’s turn at the top. Also, K-State quarterback Klein may be a Heisman Trophy front-runner no more after throwing

completed 20 of 32 passes for 238 yards, and ran nine times for 47 yards. Both of his passing touchdowns came in the first half when the Bears (5-5, 2-5) jumped to a 28-7 lead. It was on the same weekend last November, on another Saturday night in Waco, when Griffin and Baylor upset then fifthranked Oklahoma after two teams ahead of the Sooners had already lost that day. Kansas State has plenty of time for this loss to simmer. The Wildcats have Thanksgiving week off before playing their regular-season finale Dec. 1 at home against No. 18 Texas. If the Wildcats beat Texas, they will be guaranteed at least a share of the Big 12 title and get the league’s automatic BCS spot.

No. 13 Oklahoma 50, West Virginia 49 MORGANTOWN, W.VA. — Landry Jones threw six touchdown passes, including a five-yarder to Kenny Stills with 24 seconds left, to lift Oklahoma to a wild win over West Virginia on Saturday night. Jones finished with 554 passing yards to break his own school record. He needed a terrific game to offset the performances of West Virginia’s tandem of Tavon Austin and Stedman Bailey. The Sooners (8-2, 6-1 Big 12) couldn’t hang onto a 31-17 halftime lead. West Virginia went ahead 49-44 with 2:53 left on Bailey’s 40yard TD catch, but Jones led Oklahoma 54 yards for the go-ahead score.

No. 14 Stanford 17, No. 1 Oregon 14, OT EUGENE, ORE. — Jordan Williamson hit a 37-yard field goal in overtime, and Stanford upset Oregon, denying the Ducks a chance to clinch the Pac12 North and derailing their straight shot at the BCS championship game. If Stanford and Oregon finish with wins in their final games next weekend, both will finish with one conference loss, which means Stanford will win the head-to-head match-up and go to the Pac-12 championship game for a chance to play in the Rose Bowl.

No. 3 Notre Dame 38, Wake Forest 0 SOUTH BEND, IND. — Notre Dame got one firstplace vote in the coaches’ poll last Sunday — head coach Brian Kelly’s. He won’t be the only one voting the Fighting Irish No. 1 this week. Oregon and Kansas State, the two teams ahead of the Irish in the AP and BCS rankings, each lost. Now Notre Dame will control its own fate as it tries to capture its first national title in 24 years. Earlier in the day, Everett Golson threw three touchdown passes and Cierre Wood scored on a 68-yard run as the Irish beat Wake Forest 38-0 to finish the season undefeated at home for the first time since 1998. The Fighting Irish improved to 11-0 for the first time since 1989 and need to beat Southern California to finish a regular season undefeated for the first time since 1988, the last time they won a national championship.

No. 6 Ohio State 21, Wisconsin 14, OT MADISON, WIS. — Carlos Hyde scored on a two-yard run in overtime, and the Buckeyes stayed perfect. The Buckeyes (11-0, 7-0) clinched the Leaders Division title outright with the win.

2-MINUTE DRILL Iowa State 51 Kansas 23 BRIEFLY Each team lost its first possession by fumble, and each scored on its next two scores, but Kansas’ two touchdowns trumped the Cyclones’ TD and a field goal. … Kansas, however, punted away three of its next four possessions and lost another fumble, while ISU, after another punt, scored touchdowns on four straight drives to take control. … After halftime, it was more of the same. Kansas’ six secondhalf possessions ended by punt, interception, touchdown, downs, fumble and end of time, while ISU sandwiched a pair of punts around two insurance field goals and another TD. IOWA STATE LEADERS Rushing: Jeff Woody 9-89, James White 6-57. Passing: Sam B. Richardson 23-for-27 for 250 yards, 4 TDs. Receiving: Josh Lenz 6-78, Chris Young 4-31, Aaron Horne 2-40. KANSAS LEADERS Rushing: James Sims 20-81, Tony Pierson 7-73. Passing: Dayne Crist 9-for-20 for 156 yards, 1 TD, 1 INT; Michael Cummings 2-for-5 for 33 yards.

Cyclone QB overcomes nerves By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Iowa State backup quarterback Sam Richardson — who carried the ball twice and didn’t throw a pass in mop-up duty against Western Illinois the third week of the 2012 season — on Saturday was awarded appearance No. 2 at Kansas’ Memorial Stadium. “Pretty nervous,” the 6-foot-2, 204-pound red-shirt freshman from Winter Park, Fla., said of his state of mind as he took over for injured starter Steele Jantz, with the Cyclones trailing 7-3 late in the first quarter. “You’ve got to put it in the back of your head. Guys are counting on you, guys I’m counting on as well. You’ve got to be the guy to do your job and be accountable.”

Richardson accounted for four touchdown passes and also ran for a score in the Cyclones’ 51-23 rout of the Jayhawks. “I see it as getting in there and doing what I had to do,” said Richardson, who completed 23 of 27 passes for 250 yards and rushed for 43 yards off 11 carries. His TD passes went to four receivers. “If there’s touchdowns or not, a win’s a win. It’s a great feeling.” ISU coach Paul Rhoads, who said he did not know if Jantz was hurt (a couple of Cyclones said he was “dinged up”), indicated he was impressed with the work of Richardson. “Very impressive,” said Rhoads, whose team improved to 6-5 and became bowl-eligible. “It was the

first collegiate pass he threw tonight, but had great composure. Sometimes with a quarterback, when you want leadership, aggressiveness, decisiveness, confidence, you can be fooled by the composure, that you are not getting the leadership, the execution you desire. Sam took the field very composed, very poised, and delivered physically.” He entered ahead of sophomore Jared Barnett, who was listed as No. 2 on the depth chart. “I really like how he threw the ball in warm-ups,” Rhoads said. “He was really crisp and throwing great spirals.” Richardson — a text message from his parents greeted him on his phone in the winner’s locker room —

grinned when asked what he’d do to celebrate the victory. “Take a four-hour bus ride back home. After that, just hanging with the guys, nothing too special,” he said. Rhoads did not indicate who would start at QB in next week’s regular-season finale against West Virginia in Ames, Iowa. “We are 6-5 and bowl-eligible. I’m not going to worry about that tonight,” Rhoads said. Rhoads cracked a joke when asked about beating a KU team fired up on Senior Night. He was reminded KU coach Charlie Weis offered to pay for students’ tickets for the game. “I wish I had the kind of money I could do that,” he said with a smile.

KANSAS SAFETY BRADLEY MCDOUGALD (24) REACTS to seeing himself on a pregame highlight reel as he watches with the other seniors. The Jayhawks wore their usual blue uniforms for pregame activities, then changed to black for kickoff. “We got out of rhythm, and they got right into rhythm,” KU senior receiver Kale Pick said. “I never thought we were out of it until late in the fourth, but once I kind of realized it, it was just kind of a hopeless feeling, kind of like you’re in quicksand and you can’t get out of it. It was a bad feeling, and it was just tough that it had to end like that.” Senior safety Bradley McDougald agreed: “It was a 20-yard gain here, a 15-yard gain there, and then they came back and got a thirdand-short, and it just seems like things weren’t working for us.” While Iowa State’s offense was clicking, the ISU defense might have been playing even better. After the Pierson run, KU gained just 19 yards on its next four possessions. Two of those four drives ended with dropped passes on third down and another stalled because of a KU fumble. “When you’re playing the game we’re playing, at this state, you just can’t let that happen,” Weis said. The KU offense showed signs of life on the final drive of the first half when former starter Dayne Crist took over at quarterback and marched the Jayhawks to three points just before the half. Crist, who had been in on a few plays earlier in the game, zipped passes all over the

field with the confidence and competence of the player many believed he was before the season began. Crist finished 9-of-20 passing for 156 yards and a touchdown. Although using Crist to throw the ball down the field was Weis’ plan heading into the week, he did not anticipate needing to use him that much. “I thought the game would be in the 20s,” said Weis, adding that KU’s 25 pass attempts were about 10 more than he would have liked. “If we’re throwing it that much, that’s not a good thing.” Cummings started the second half, but the Jayhawks’ opening drive stalled. Crist was back out there for the next possession, but any dreams of the former Notre Dame QB’s capping his KU career with a comeback for the ages disappeared with an incomplete pass on third and five and an interception on fourth and five, with 5:40 to play in the third quarter. “We were living very dangerously already at halftime,” Weis said, “because it was gonna take a perfect half for us to have a chance.” The second half was far from perfect, and instead of partying on the field after their first conference victory in three seasons, Weis and the Jayhawks once again sang the alma mater to a mostly empty student section.

First Quarter 10:18 — Edwin Arceo 47 field goal. After the Cyclones’ opening drive of the game stalled inside the KU 10 yard line when quarterback Steele Jantz fumbled, the Cyclones forced a fumble on KU’s first possession and were able to salvage three points out of the opening turnover exchange. (ISU 3, KU 0). 4:37 — Taylor Cox 2 run. Nick Prolago kick. The Jayhawks ran 10 times but for just 25 yards. The two biggest plays on the drive came through the air, though, as Michael Cummings hit Taylor Cox for a long gain and then James Sims on the next play. It was initially ruled that Sims had scored, but review overturned the call. (KU 7, ISU 3). :36 — Jeff Woody 11 run. Arceo kick. After an illegal-block penalty on the kickoff backed the Cyclones up at the KU 11, backup quarterback Sam Richardson marched the Cyclones 89 yards in 10 plays. (ISU 10, KU 7). Second Quarter 14:50 — Tony Pierson 55 run. Prolago kick. Pierson’s 202-yard game against Texas Tech last week was a career high. The sophomore picked up more than a quarter of that total on a touchdown run that started as a Wildcat snap to Sims, featured a potential reverse pitch to Dayne Crist, who was lined up at wide receiver, and plenty of Pierson speed. (KU 14, ISU 10). 11:23 — Albert Gary 11 pass from Sam Richardson. Arceo kick. After the first two plays went nowhere, Woody converted a third-down run, and Richardson found Gary in the corner of the end zone on a play in which the Jayhawks lined up offsides. (ISU 17, KU 14). 8:41 — Aaron Horne 30 pass from Richardson. Arceo kick. Iowa State forced another KU fumble and, this time, scored seven instead of three points on the drive that followed. Big play was a third-down pass from Richardson that appeared to be short of the first down but was spotted well ahead of the mark. KU coach Charlie Weis challenged the spot, but the call stood. (ISU 24, KU 14). 3:33 — Richardson 1 run. Arceo kick. After another drop by KU wide receiver Chris Omigie gave the Cyclones the ball back, Woody struck again, ripping off a 43-yard run that set up the touchdown. (ISU 31, KU 14). 1:01 — Ernst Brun 20 pass from Richardson. Arceo kick. Iowa State matched its season-high point total on a six-play, 51-yard drive that took 1:50 and featured very little resistance from the KU defense. (ISU 38, KU 14). 0:00 — Nick Prolago 25 field goal. Crist started this drive and marched the Jayhawks 72 yards in eight plays and 1:01. (ISU 38, KU 17). Third Quarter 1:35 — Arceo 51 field goal. The scoring drive covered 44 yards and took 10 plays and 4:05. (ISU 41, KU 17). Fourth Quarter 14:19 — Tony Pierson 37 pass from Dayne Crist. Two-point conversion failed. With Weis continuing to play both quarterbacks, Crist led a six-play, 72-yard drive that took 2:10 and featured a perfect touch pass to Pierson streaking down the left side of the field. (ISU 41, KU 23). 12:12 — Josh Lenz 14 pass from Richardson. Arceo kick. Iowa State continued to air it out, this time scoring in just 2:01 on a drive that covered 64 yards in six plays. (ISU 48, KU 23). 8:19 — Arceo 47 field goal. Iowa State’s kicker added to a career night with another long-distance bomb. (ISU 51, KU 23).

a 37-yard TD from senior quarterback Dayne Crist. But it was the tackle Pierson made to save two points that made teammates and coaches most proud of the team’s fastest player. Pierson had just found an opening in the middle of the defense and caught one of many accurate Crist deliveries and took it into the end zone to cut Iowa State’s lead to 41-23 with 14:19 left in the fourth quarter. On the two-point conversion attempt, Cummings threw a pass intercepted a few yards in front of the end zone by Cyclones cornerback Jacques Washington, who had nothing in front of him but a grassy path to the end zone for two points. “They’re about ready to score two, and it just tells you a lot about Tony,” Kansas coach Charlie Weis said. “Most people wouldn’t be hustling the way he was hustling. Remember, he was all the way in the end zone, and he has to catch that guy all the way down at the other end of the field. That’s a heck of a hustle play right there. I didn’t congratulate him on his touchdown. I congratulated him on that play because that says a lot about Tony.” Crist, whose night was sabotaged by a pair of third-down drops from junior receiver Chris Omigie, reiterated what he had said about Pierson in the past. “Nothing Tony Pierson does surprises me,” Crist said. “Nothing. He’s an exceptional athlete, and he’s got such

KANSAS RECEIVER D.J. BESHEARS IS TAKEN DOWN by a handful of Iowa State defenders in the fourth quarter. God-given ability. And he doesn’t rest on that. He’s constantly working on getting better, and he’s got a great football IQ. That just shows the heart he has more than anything because we all know about his physical tools.” James Sims is the team’s best all-around running back and is complemented beautifully by the big-play Pierson, who popped runs of 69 and 49 yards a week earlier against Texas Tech en route to a 202-yard rushing day. On a team that has not had a touchdown reception from a wide receiver 11 games into the season, Pierson easily is the most dangerous deep threat. “Just the heart and the mental fortitude he showed on a play that really could have gone either way just speaks volume about Tony and the

type of guy he is,” Crist said of Pierson’s tackle. “We need more guys like Tony Pierson.” Bingo. More guys who can outrun Big 12 players. More guys who are tough enough to take verbal challenges in practice and realize they are delivered to make them better. More electric playmakers on both sides of the ball. He represents hope. What, Weis was asked, gives him hope? Fair question, given he’s coaching a 1-10 team in a league that doesn’t look as if it gets weaker anytime soon. “I think we have as good, if not the best running backs in the Big 12,” Weis said. “It’s a good place to start. It’s James. It’s Tony. It’s Taylor (Cox). It’s Brandon (Bourbon). And they’re all back. Think about that for a second. At times we were inef-

ficient in the pass game, and we had to morph into this run-first team. You’re developing your current guys and bringing in new players, and you’re going to add a complementary passing game to that running game, and now you’ve got something going. Now you’ve got a lot more ways of winning.” Other than Pierson and tight end Jimmay Mundine, a skilled pass-catcher determined to become a better blocker, quarterback-in-waiting Jake Heaps doesn’t figure to have many open targets from which to choose. That’s why the Sunday of Thanksgiving weekend, the first day recruiting visits are allowed, two of the Weis’ four scheduled appointments are with wide receivers. He needs to land them. Pierson can do it all, but he can’t do everything.

Kansas University football coach Charlie Weis got everything he wanted out of Saturday’s Senior Night match-up with Iowa State except for the victory. “I’m sorry I’m talking to you today,” Weis said after his team’s 51-23 loss on Saturday night. “Because my intent, if we won the game, was to excuse myself from the press conference and let you talk to all those happy campers, the seniors. But it didn’t turn out that way.” Although the Jayhawks were drubbed from the midway point of the second quarter on, everything else that accompanied the final home game in the careers of 23 KU seniors seemed to match the buildup that Weis put into it throughout the week. The student section, though far from full, had its largest turnout in weeks, perhaps a sign that at least a handful of KU students took Weis up on his offer to pay for their tickets. During the game’s opening coin toss, the rest of the senior class lined up at the feet of the giant Jayhawk at midfield and, in that way, were a part of the final opening-ceremony moment at Memorial Stadium. During the pregame introductions, a highlight video featuring the seniors played on the video board. At game’s end, a similar video rolled next to a neon note that simply read, “Thank You Seniors.” “It says a lot,” said senior Toben Opurum when asked what Weis’ emphasis on his class meant to him. “He put so much effort into making this a special night for the seniors and these are guys he hasn’t even known for a year.” Although nothing about this final home game played out the way these guys envisioned, many of them were unable to hide the flood of positive feelings that came with their final home game. “These are definitely times that have been the most fun years of my life,” senior safety Bradley McDougald said, “and also, at times, have been the most challenging.”

Back in black Saturday’s game is believed to have been the first time in the history of KU football that the Jayhawks suited up in black uniforms. And the whole thing was a huge surprise.

After warming up in their regular blue home jerseys, the KU players returned to the locker room to see black tops, black pants and white helmets with a Jayhawk on the side waiting for them at their lockers. “I was shocked,” Opurum said. “But it was a pleasant surprise. I never thought we’d be able to wear all black at KU because Missouri’s worn it for so long. But they looked good, and it was a surprise for everyone. Guys were really excited about it.” Senior receiver Kale Pick said the moment the alternate uniforms were revealed came as a complete surprise to everyone and might have been just as enjoyable for Weis. “Everybody was jumping up and down ready to go at it,” Pick recalled. “And it was kind of funny how coach Weis just kind of sat down in a chair and sat back and watched it all. Like kids in a candy store.”

Iron man Tanner KU senior Tanner Hawkinson, a senior offensive lineman from McPherson, set a KU record with his 47th consecutive start, passing Hessley Hempstead, who started 46 straight games during his career. It was believed that Hawkinson set the mark a few weeks back, but there was an error in the postgame notes following KU’s loss to Texas. This and that... The Jayhawks won Saturday’s opening coin toss for the third straight week. They deferred their choice to the second half, and Iowa State elected to receive the opening kickoff. ... Iowa State snapped James Sims’ school-record streak of six straight 100yard games, as the junior tailback finished with just 81 yards on 20 carries, his lowest output of the season. Sims’ fumble in the second quarter was his first in 246 attempts, dating back to Nov. 5, 2011. ... Sophomore Ben Heeney led the Jayhawks with 13 tackles. It marked the fifth time this season that Heeney had recorded double-digit tackles. ... With 60 yards against the Cyclones, senior D.J. Beshears passed the 2,000yard mark for career kickreturn yardage. Beshears’ total of 2,059 ranks second all-time behind Marcus Herford’s total of 2,075.

Chiefs could get a rough welcome By Dave Skretta Associated Press Sports Writer

KANSAS CITY, MO. — The Cincinnati Bengals firmly believe they’re still on the road to respectability, just as the Kansas City Chiefs are wondering if they’ll ever hit rock bottom. One thing is certain: There could be a lot of people wearing black inside Arrowhead Stadium when the teams meet today. The Bengals, coming off a confidence-boosting win over the Giants last weekend, visit a disheveled Chiefs team that’s floundered to six straight losses. Kansas City still has only led in regulation once this season, and its only win came after a franchise-record comeback. “They’re going to come in here and feel like they have a good chance to

win another game,” Chiefs coach Romeo Crennel said, “but if we work on our attitude, our effort and the things we did Monday night, clean up one or two things, I think we’re going to play good. That’s the focus.” Been the focus all season, too. It hasn’t mattered. Kansas City’s latest letdown came last Monday night, when it rallied in the final minutes to force overtime at Pittsburgh. Matt Cassel promptly threw an interception after the Chiefs won the coin toss, once again snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. The Chiefs (1-8) were expected to contend for the AFC West this season. Instead, they’ve committed a leagueleading 30 turnovers, suffered season-ending injuries to three starters,

had both of their quarterbacks go down with concussions, and shown a startling lack of professionalism. That became evident Monday night, when the Chiefs were flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct after a group dance celebration following a touchdown that ultimately never happened. Little wonder there’s such unrest in Kansas City. Long one of the NFL’s most passionate fan bases, Chiefs supporters have turned increasingly hostile in recent weeks. Twice fans have paid for banners to be flown behind airplanes asking for general manager Scott Pioli to be fired — they haven’t gotten their wish yet — and today, they’re expected to come dressed in black to mourn another lost season.

They should blend in well with all the Bengals fans dressed in black and orange. “We’re frustrated. Everybody is frustrated. None of us envisioned this, or none of us want to be 1-8, and the fans are frustrated as well,” said Cassel, who lost his job to Brady Quinn, only to get it right back when Quinn sustained his second concussion three weeks ago. Quinn still had not been cleared early in the week, meaning Cassel will start today. “At the same time, we have a job to do,” Cassel continued, “and we’re going to go out there and do our job to the best of our ability. “Hopefully, that results in a win and we can change the atmosphere and the environment around here.”

Goodell says game will get safer BOSTON (AP) — Professional football can evolve into a safer game without sacrificing the physical play — or, some would say, violence — that has made it so popular, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said in a speech on player safety at the Harvard School of Public Health this week. “Football has always evolved, and it always will,” he said. “Make no mistake: Change does not inhibit the game; it improves it.” In a long-planned appearance that came four days after three starting NFL quarterbacks were

knocked out with concussions, Goodell said that the league has already improved the way it handles hits to the head. San Francisco’s Alex Smith, Chicago’s Jay Cutler and Philadelphia’s Michael Vick were all diagnosed with concussions in last Sunday’s games. Goodell said that all three were taken out “as soon as they showed symptoms,” a claim that was challenged by a member of the audience during the period for questions who noted that Smith and Cutler kept playing for a short time after being injured. “It was identified and

they were taken out of the game,” the commissioner said. “Even a few years ago, I’m not sure you would have seen that.” Listing some of the safety measures that have been incorporated into the sport both before and since he became commissioner, Goodell mentioned the elimination of the flying wedge that was first employed by Harvard in the 1800s and the change in kickoffs last season that he credited for a 40 percent reduction in concussions on returns. Goodell said the league is looking into better

helmets and sponsoring scientific research that could make the game still safer. “Not long ago, the game allowed the head slap, tackling by the face mask, horse-collar tackles, dangerous blocks, and hits to the head of defenseless receivers and quarterbacks. All of that has changed,” he said. “My commitment has been and will continue to be to change the culture of football to better protect players without changing the essence of what makes the game so popular. It has been done. “And it will be done.”

OHIO STATE’S DESHAUN THOMAS, LEFT, and Rhode Island’s Nikola Malesevic fight for the loose ball during the second half of a game in the Hall of Fame Tip-Off tournament, Saturday in Uncasville, Conn. Thomas scored a game-high 25 points and had 10 rebounds in his team’s 69-58 victory.

Ohio State outlasts feisty Rhode Island The Associated Press

No. 4 Ohio State 69, Rhode Island 58 UNCASVILLE, CONN. — Ohio State finally got a test away from Columbus and managed to get a win in a hostile environment. Deshaun Thomas scored 25 points and grabbed 10 rebounds and the Buckeyes beat Rhode Island in the Hall of Fame Tip-Off tournament in Connecticut on Saturday. Lenzelle Smith Jr. added 15 points, Aaron Craft had 13 points and four assists for Ohio State (2-0), which struggled with the Rams (0-3) well into the second half. Xavier Munford had 16 points to lead Rhode Island, which had four players in double figures and trailed by just four at halftime. “We’re going to know a lot more about our basketball team at 6:30 than we did coming into this tournament,” Ohio State coach Thad Matta said. “I think this will be good for our team in terms of growth.” This was Ohio State’s first game away from home, and its first on a neutral court. The Buckeyes had been scheduled to play on Nov. 9 in the Carrier Classic on the USS Yorktown in South Carolina, but that game had to be cancelled because of condensation on the court. So the Buckeyes had played just once, a 22-point home win in the opening game of this tournament last Sunday over Albany. The Rams were down just six in this one when Craft hit a 3-point shot that bounced around the rim and in with 6:45 left and then stole the ball on the other end of the court. That led to a technical foul on Rhode Island coach Dan Hurley. Thomas hit both free throws and the five-point swing gave Ohio State a 55-44 edge, its first double-digit lead of the game, and the Buckeyes held on from there. “It was exciting to play with a lot of spirit and a lot of fight against a top-5, national-caliber program that has a great chance to play in the Final Four,” said Hurley. “Based on where we are as a program, I couldn’t be happier with the way we fought, the way we competed.” Rhode Island, which came into the game off losses to Norfolk State and Virginia Tech, is rebuilding after a 7-24 season. Hurley is expecting some growing pains in his first season with the Rams, who have just eight eligible scholarship players. Three others are transfers sitting out this season. Rhode Island hit eight

of its 17 shots from 3-point range to stay in the game, but was outrebounded by 10. The Rams took an early lead and were up 19-13 after back-to-back 3-pointers by Nikola Malesevic and Andre Malone more than 10 minutes into the game. Malesevic had seven points when he picked up his second and third fouls in a 12-second span in the first half and his team up 22-17. Ohio State closed the half on a 7-0 run and led 30-26 at the break. Craft had 10 of his 13 points in the first half. Malesevic picked up his fourth foul with 16:40 left and Ohio State quickly went up 38-31. But Rhode Island fought back, and came within two at 38-36 on ally-oop dunk from Mike Powell to Munford. Thomas showed his range for the Buckeyes, hitting three of his six shots from behind the arc. “We’re just going to mark it down as a win,” Thomas said. “We know we’re a team that can get better each and every day.” Ohio State plays today against the winner of the game between Seton Hall and Washington. Rhode Island will play against the loser of that game. This is the same tournament that Kentucky won last season in an early test for its young team, which eventually won the national title. With the loss, Rhode Island falls to 12-89 alltime against ranked opponents, and has lost 20 straight games against ranked teams, since beating No. 25 Utah in December 1998. OHIO ST.

No. 1 Baylor 82, UT Martin 67 HONOLULU — Brittney Griner set an NCAA women’s record with her eighth career dunk to help Baylor bounce back from its first loss in more than a season with a victory over UT Martin on Saturday night. Griner scored 16 of her 18 points in the first half and rested most of the second half once the Lady Bears (3-1) established firm control. That took longer than expected for the defending national champions as the unranked Skyhawks (1-3) hung around early, using 3-pointers to try to compete against an opponent that overmatched them from the start. Baylor played without AllAmerican point guard Odyssey Sims, who strained her hamstring early in a 71-69 loss Friday to No. 4 Stanford. Griner passed Tennessee’s Candace Parker with her record-breaking jam less than seven minutes into the game. She broke away from a double-team, dribbled once and dunked with her right hand, getting the loudest cheer of the night from the mostly empty gym. Griner, who is one of only seven women to dunk in NCAA history, dunked four times as a freshman, once as a sophomore and twice in last season’s NCAA tournament. Heather Butler scored 28 points and Jasmine Newsome scored 24 for UT Martin in defeat. Baylor was looking to get back on track after Stanford ended its 42game winning streak at the start of the Rainbow Wahine tournament in Honolulu. Baylor coach Kim Mulkey admitted after that game that her team was out of sync in the Aloha State during a trip that’s included snorkeling, surf and an unusual schedule. Saturday night’s game was far different for the team that saw its streak end when a last-second shot from Griner bounced off the rim. Four players scored in double digits for Baylor,

Jasmine Newsome at 5-foot-7 didn’t even jump for the opening tip against the 6-foot-8 Griner. In addition to her record dunk, Griner also passed 2,500 career points in the game.

No. 14 West Virginia 75, S. Carolina Upstate 45 MORGANTOWN, W.VA. — Bria Holmes scored 14 points off the bench to lead a balanced offensive as West Virginia

defeated South Carolina Upstate. Jennie Simms also had 11 off the bench for West Virginia, while starter Averee Fields pitched in 10. Tyra Smith scored 10 points in the losing effort for SC Upstate. After falling behind by double digits in the first half, SC Upstate managed to score the first basket of the half to cut West Virginia’s lead to nine, but the Mountaineers responded with a 22-4 run over the next 12 1/2 minutes, which included a stretch of 14 unanswered points, to push the lead to 30 with 7:25 left.

Celtics 107, Raptors 89 BOSTON — Rajon Rondo tied his season high with 20 assists, and Jason Terry scored 20 points to help Boston beat Toronto on Saturday. Rondo appeared at full strength after sitting out a loss at Brooklyn on Thursday night because of a sprained right ankle. He had seven assists in the first quarter and 11 at halftime, extending his streak of consecutive games with double-digit assists to 33. Rondo left the game shortly after reaching 20 assists, four short of his career high, early in the fourth quarter. He also had 20 assists against Philadelphia on Nov. 9. Rondo’s streak is the third-longest in NBA history and puts him within four games of tying John Stockton. Magic Johnson holds the record at 46 consecutive games with 10 or more assists. Paul Pierce added 19 points and six rebounds, and Kevin Garnett had 15 points for Boston (6-4). Rookie Jared Sullinger had his first double-double with 12 points and 11 rebounds. Andrea Bargnani and John Lucas led Toronto (2-7) with 15 points apiece, and DeMar DeRozan, Jose Calderon, Terrence Ross and Linas Kleiza had 10 each. Chris Wilcox had an alley-oop dunk on Rondo’s 19th assist. After trailing by as much as 17 in the first quarter, Toronto regrouped in the second and chipped into the lead with a 13-4 run. Lucas’ three-pointer with 2:35 left pulled the Raptors to 42-39, but Pierce had a three-point play and the Celtics led 47-42 at halftime.

Jazz 83, Wizards 76 WASHINGTON — Al Jefferson scored 21 points, Gordon Haywood added 15 in his first game as a reserve this season, and Utah kept Washington winless. The Jazz committed 19 turnovers but pulled away in the fourth quarter while closing a four-game road trip with a sloppy performance — and got away with it because they were playing the Wizards. Washington became only the second team in NBA history to start 0-8 in back-to-back seasons. The game was tied at 65 early in the fourth when the Wizards went cold, scoring only 13 points in the final period. The Jazz held Washington scoreless for more than four minutes while building their first double-digit lead of the game.

SCENE STEALERS

‘Lincoln,’ sex surrogates and the search for a legend W hen I first heard seven years ago about Steven Spielberg’s desire to make a movie biopic of Abraham Lincoln starring Liam Neeson as our venerated 16th president, I cringed. Not only did it sound like obvious Oscar bait, but Spielberg can be the kind of filmmaker who pulls at the heartstrings in the most obvious and insulting way. Last year’s “War Horse� was a perfect example of that.

The sensitive, threedimensional portrayal of Abraham Lincoln by Daniel Day-Lewis is a major reason the movie is so fascinating. He may have been 6-foot-4, but if anything, this Lincoln is quiet and reserved. Even his big speeches — as stirring as they can be — seem like they are coming from a real place and don’t carry the booming voice of puffed-up “authority� that you hear from most politicians and pundits today. Spielberg’s more overt sentimentality is kept in check, yet he’s still able to be inspiring. The movie focuses specifically on the last four months of Lincoln’s life, giving us a richer portrait of the president’s skills as a politician as he maneuvers for enough votes in the House to adopt the eric@scene-stealers.com 13th Amendment and end slavery. A more allencompassing biopic of His heavy-handed hishis life would have moved torical drama “Amistad� too fast and felt like a from 1997 also features highlight reel.

DANIEL DAY-LEWIS portrays Abraham Lincoln in the Steven Spielberg film “Lincoln,� out now. intense pressure. The end solution? Real and meaningful change.

‘Sessions’ fast but poignant At the heart of “The Sessions,� which opened this weekend at Liberty Hall, is another wellspoken man. The movie, which mixes broad comedy, frank sexuality and faith, is based on the true story of Mark O’Brien, played by John Hawkes. O’Brien was paralyzed from the waist down from polio, and lived most of his life on his back in an iron lung. But he was also a gifted poet and journalist, so even his everyday conversation is full of pithy humor and insight. While doing an article on sex and the disabled, Mark decides to explore sex for himself for the first time at 38 and hires a sex surrogate (Helen Hunt). What develops between them is — no surprise — more meaningful, as much as she would like to keep it strictly clinical. Mark also develops a bond with his

priest (William H. Macy), whose beliefs about sex before marriage are challenged. Writer/director Ben Lewin has made a remarkably upbeat and affecting film, but if there’s one major criticism I’d levy against it, it’s that “The Sessions� moves too fast. There are glimpses of Hunt’s family life, but nothing of Macy’s character outside Mark, and after a while, anything not directly related to the central sex story is whittled away. Lewin cuts so quickly between some scenes (usually for a punch line) that they rarely have time to register. Must-see: Watch the 1996 Oscar-winning 35-minute short documentary “Breathing Lessons: The Life and Work of Mark O’Brien� in its entirety.

‘60 Minutes’ spoils ‘Sugar Man’ If you watched CBS’ Oct. 7 “60 Minutes� profile of the remarkable new documentary “Searching for Sugar Man,� you probably won’t enjoy the movie as much as if you hadn’t. (Hell, you probably shouldn’t watch the trailer.) For just over a quarter of an hour, “60 Minutes� used as much footage from the film as possible, lazily mixing in a couple of their own shots, and telling the story in the same ingenious way that director Malik Bendjelloul tells it in “Searching for Sugar Man.� In other words, it’s a spoiler-heavy CliffsNotes version of the film. Without going into it too much, “Searching for Sugar Man,� also open-

ing at Liberty Hall this weekend, is an extremely well-shot and put-together movie, especially for its shoestring budget. It tells the parallel story of Rodriguez, an obscure early-’70s Detroit musician who reportedly committed suicide on stage

and the rise of his unexpected popularity in the country of South Africa. His lyrics gave the country hope in the middle of apartheid, and the film effortlessly links together the concepts of hope and art with a humbling unpretentiousness.

KANSAS CITY CONNECTION

Winter wardrobe workshops and other ways to spend the holidays M

ost of the time, I am conspicuously underdressed. I show up for everything — fancy dinners, cocktail parties, my own wedding shower — in dark jeans, a T-shirt and flats. I just like to be comfortable, I guess. I get away with it because I always wear red lipstick. At least that’s what I tell myself. The holidays, however, are an exception. That’s when I like to bust out my vintage off-white Neiman Marcus sweater with opalescent sequins. But every year it loses a few more of the shiny bits, and it’s getting a little snaggly. Lucky for me, the Honeytree Gallery (504 E. 18th St., Kansas City, Mo.) is hosting a Refresh Your Wardrobe Winter Workshop this afternoon from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. Taught by Honeytree Gallery owner and textile artist Kate E. Burke with Jessica Rogers of CartWheel (a retail store on wheels), the workshop is open to anyone who needs to mend a garment, fix a zipper, and to those who want to transform a plain T-shirt or dress into something Christmascocktail-party worthy.

FIREWORKS SHOOT UP INTO THE AIR over the Country Club Plaza during the 78th annual plaza lighting ceremony Nov. 22, 2007, in Kansas City, Mo. This year the lighting ceremony will be flipped at 6:50 p.m. Nov. 22 at a new location at Nichols Road and Pennsylvania Street.

shocked into the holiday spirit, head to the Country Club Plaza (Nichols Road and Pennsylvania, Kansas City, Mo.) on Thanksgiving night for the 83rd Annual KCP&L Plaza Lighting Ceremony. The switch will be flipped at 6:50 p.m. by Sporting Kansas City players Matt Besler, Kei Kamara and Jimmy Nielsen. (If you want to catch a glimpse, that will happen from the ceremony stage on Nichols Road and Pennsylvania — a new location this year.) Hot chocolate and peppermint schnapps really take it up a notch, but that’s technically illegal, so I’m not suggesting you take it with you (in anything other than a Thermos).

Visit countryclubplaza.com for a complete schedule of lighting ceremony events and information on parking. My final piece of holiday advice: Don’t leave your house on New Year’s Eve. Be safe. Stay home, enjoy a bottle of moderately priced bubbly and some good food, then cuddle up with someone you love (pets included). — By day, Kansas City native Emily Farris is a cookbook publicist.

To many a Lawrencian past and present, an order of Bonez is a doughy, cheesy, buttery wreath of happiness. To elaborate, that wreath would be a huge breadstick filled with mozzarella, provolone and cheddar cheeses, twisted into a circle, brushed with garlic butter, sprinkled with herbs and baked to a golden brown. It’s hot, gooey, crispy, savory and dip-able. And undoubtedly not very healthy ... but that’s not the point of this feature, now is it? Where to get it: Pyramid Pizza, 1029 Massachusetts St. What you’ll pay: $5.99 plus tax Try it with: Marinara sauce and/or ranch dressing and/or honey — Pyramid’s best-known dipping sauce for polishing off their signature braided pizza crusts.

Evans, born in Kansas City in 1944, attended KU in the late ’60s and majored in painting and commercial art. She later settled in Salina. Her show “Heartland: The Photographs of Terry Evans� takes viewers on a visual tour of diverse subjects and projects, many from Kansas. The show, and a book from the show, spans a career starting in 1971, with explorations of prairie landscapes, both distant aerials and closeup examinations of native flora, to the present where she is photographing the North Dakota oil boom and its effect on environment and communities.

WASHINGTON — Stephen Colbert is taking his place among the presidents at the Madame Tussauds wax museum in Washington and will be featured in a new media gallery. Colbert visited the museum Friday to unveil a wax figure created to represent him. The museum says Colbert donated his own clothes to dress the figure in a suit, tie, cuff links and lapel pin. Colbert wore an identical outfit. The new figure will be the centerpiece of a new media gallery with a replica of “The Colbert Report� set where guests can sit next to Colbert’s figure behind his fake news desk. Designers from Madame Tussauds went to Colbert’s New York studio in June to take more than 250 measurements and photographs of the Comedy Central star to create the wax figure.

DEC. 7-15: ‘A KANSAS NUTCRACKER’ Once again, the Lawrence Arts Center will showcase its early Kansas version of a classic Christmastime ballet. “A Kansas Nutcracker” opens Dec. 7 at the Arts Center, 940 New Hampshire St. Set in 1861, Kansas’ first year of statehood, “A Kansas Nutcracker” will feature more than 130 dancers and actors — both students and professionals — and the 13-piece Free State Liberation Orchestra. The Arts Center promises a show that infuses Clara’s surreal ballet dreams with Kansas’ abolition, suffrage and temperance politics, oversized personalities, unpredictable weather, Plains landscape and the Civil War. The political intensity of the time paved the way for Quantrill’s Raid two years later. Performances are planned

BOOKS Wolfe takes on Miami ? WHAT ARE YOU

READING By Adam Strunk

Latest novel touches on potentially explosive urban themes

By Connie Ogle The Miami Herald

Angus House, cook, Lawrence “‘Ring of Bone’ (by Lou Welch). It’s a collection and scattering of short stories and poetry. He’s a brilliant writer, but no one has really heard of him.”

Kara Bogner, backpacking guide, Denver “I just finished ‘The Help’ (by Kathryn Stockett). I loved it. I liked the characters. It had good descriptions and good points of view.”

Genelle Hughes, hair stylist, Kansas City, Kan., “‘Rich Dad, Poor Dad’ (by Robert Kiyosaki). It’s about a man with a rich dad and a poor dad. He learns the tricks of the trade for being wealthy”

MIAMI — Here are the things you might not know about Tom Wolfe: He prefers the tango to salsa dancing. He fondly remembers the flamingos at Hialeah Park. He has sipped Cuban coffee at Versailles. And he’s not crazy about hip-hop but likes country music, if only for the song titles. And yes. He wore one of his famous white suits — with black and white checked socks, no less — when he kicked off the 29th Miami Book Fair International on Sunday. Wolfe, 81, was in Miami to talk about his new novel “Back to Blood” (Little, Brown, $30), set in an ethnically embattled, riotous Miami he researched from the strip clubs of Sunny Isles Beach to the pastelito shops of Hialeah. “I knew so little but had a lot of fun,” he told the full house of his time here, which is documented in the film “Tom Wolfe Gets Back to Blood.” In conversation with former Mayor Manny Diaz — who will speak about his own book, “Miami Transformed: Rebuilding America One Neighborhood, One City at a Time,” Wolfe was

more stooped than you might remember, but happy to ramble on amiably after Diaz’s questions. “Back to Blood,” he said, started out as a desire to write about immigration, but every time he’d tell someone about his new subject, “they’d say, ‘Oh, that’s really interesting,’ and then they’d go to sleep standing up like a horse,” he said. But he kept working the idea, finally focusing on Cuban-American immigrants and the way they have shaped the city. The novel touches on potentially explosive themes, but that’s necessary in fiction, Wolfe believes. A former journalist who pioneered the New Journalism with works like “The Right Stuff” and “The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test,” he strives to make his fiction deeply grounded in fact. “So few writers want to touch the subject of race and ethnicity. It makes people nervous,” Wolfe said. “But that’s what America is all about. It’s the great meeting place of people from all over the world.” Wolfe talked about his friendship with former Police Chief John Timoney, art (“artists are the best real estate de-

Sometimes the best way to tell a big story is to focus on one compelling part of a tale and use that information to paint the larger, truer picture. Celebrity biographer William J. Mann (Katherine Hepburn, Elizabeth Taylor) follows that old journalism rule to paint the Barbra Streisand portrait and, in his masterful “Hello, Gorgeous: Becoming Barbra Streisand,” he captures one of the most Jeremy Dean, fully realized pictures of student, the multi-hyphenate suLawrence perstar to date. “I read Stephen King’s Mann opts to tell the ‘The Gunslinger.’ I thought story by pinpointing a the writing style was a bit small segment of her life: bland.” the period from 1960, when the Brooklyn-born “street urchin” first landed in Manhattan bent on becoming a great actress, to 1964, when she conquered Broadway in her Tony-nominated turn in “Funny Girl.” But these four formative years, Mann insists, formed the basis of the woman Streisand, now 70, would embody ever afJennifer Dubois, ter. She sought greatness, cleans houses, not mere fame, Mann obLawrence serves. And Streisand’s “I read a diabetic cook not done. She’s on an book. I read just a little arena tour, and she opens bit, but it has tips on how a movie with Seth Rogan to keep your blood sugar in December. Last month low.” she extended her Top 10

streak of albums to 32. Only the Rolling Stones and Frank Sinatra have had more. Mann, who claims to have been a casual fan before he embarked on writing this lengthy bio, had a daunting task. Many books have been written about Streisand but few, if any, put readers as close to the subject as Mann does. The author uses meticulous research, intelligent analysis and a gift for depicting time and place. Most previous bios focused on tabloid stories: clashes with directors and co-stars, romances with famous men, a chronological laundry list of hits and misses. But “Hello, Gorgeous” delves deeper into theater, nightclubs and television in the early 1960s. Mann sets the stage to help readers understand the drive that pushed Streisand to escape a dreary existence in Brooklyn — from a mother who could not support her ambitions and a miserable stepfather — to scaling mountainous odds against her plans. History would suggest everyone was immediately awed by Streisand’s

AUTHOR TOM WOLFE, who wrote “The Bonfire of the Vanities” and “The Right Stuff,” returns with “Back to Blood,” his first novel in eight years. velopers”) and even had a chuckle at a question from an audience member about an essay he wrote calling John Updike, Norman Mailer and John Irving “My Three Stooges.” But he told the audience that even with all his research, he couldn’t hope to sum up Miami. “There’s no blanket statement I could make,”

he admitted. “There’s such variety.” Even if he did capture the pulse of the city, Wolfe has no plans to put another chronicler of Miami out of business. “Carl Hiaasen is in a league by himself,” he said. “I think I’ve read every word he’s ever written. I wouldn’t even think of topping him.”

oversized talents; actually, few wanted to give her a shot. She was no one’s first choice to play Fanny Brice in “Funny Girl” and had to fight for the part. The imperious president of Columbia Records, now Streisand’s home for 50 years, turned her down more than once. Even when Streisand caught a break, Mann details, she still had to convince naysayers. When Streisand, 18, landed a gig at Bon Soir, a prestigious Manhattan nightclub, her mother traveled from Brooklyn to catch opening night. During a break, Streisand, clad in a chic white-lace Victorian jacket, asked her mother for her opinion. ‘“What did you think, Mama?’ Barbra asked. ‘“You were good,’ Diana told her.” Streisand froze. Her mother paid her a compliment? She appeared on the verge of tears, Mann reveals. But Mama couldn’t resist getting in a dig. And then another. ‘“Now, look, your clothes. You should let the world see you sing in your nightgown?” ‘“But you thought I was

good?’ Barbra asked. ‘“Yes. I thought you were good. Sometimes the voice was a little thin,’ Diana added. ‘Maybe you should see a vocal coach.’” Streisand’s peculiarities were such that sharpeyed producers realized the only way “Funny Girl” was going to work was if writers worked more of Streisand’s persona into the musical rather than relying on Brice’s less interesting story. The song “If a Girl Isn’t Pretty” features a group of cackling hens who derisively sing of Brice’s unconventional look. Nonplussed, Streisand responds I’m the Greatest Star with gale-force conviction, willing it into being. By 1964 her fourth collection of show tunes and standards, “People,” dethroned the Beatles at the top of the Billboard album chart. Mann’s conversational style makes “Hello Gorgeous” a brisk, compulsive read, and he leads readers to empathize with and grasp how the singing actress accomplished the impossible. Throughout this marvelous book, we witness this kooky, original, charming, infuriating, sensuous, insecure and confident mass of contradictions coalesces into one of the greatest talents of the 20th century.

Louise Erdrich, Katherine Boo win National Book Awards

By Carolyn Kellogg

Los Angeles Times

Novelist Louise Erdrich and journalist Katherine Boo took the top prizes at the National Book Awards in New York on Wednesday night. Although set half a world apart, both women’s books express what Boo described as “small stories in so-called hidden places.” Erdrich won the fiction award for “The Round House,” set

among the Turtle Mountain Chippewa. The author of more than a dozen novels, Erdrich spoke in Ojibwe and English in her speech, citing “the grace and endurance of Native women.” Boo won the nonfiction award for “Behind the Beautiful Forevers: Life, Death, and Hope in a Mumbai Undercity,” a book that chronicled three years in the life of an impoverished family in the Annawadi slum. The author thanked her husband, who per-

Vargas Llosa has tried ‘50 Shades’ fiction By Claudia Torrens Associated Press

NEW YORK — Mario Vargas Llosa may be a Nobel laureate, but he says he has tried to write erotic novels “without the same success” as EL James, who wrote the best-selling “Fifty Shades of Grey” trilogy. The Peruvian writer, who spoke at the Americas Society, said he was surprised to see “Fifty Shades” books at the window displays of bookstores in Ireland, where he presented his latest novel, “The Dream of Celt,” in June. James’ erotic novels are currently best-sellers in Argentina, Mexico, Spain, Chile and Colombia, among other Spanishspeaking countries. “I have not read it,” Vargas Llosa said with a smile, answering a question about the trilogy on Monday night. “I hope it’s fun.” When asked if he would ever write an erotic novel, Vargas Llosa replied: “I have tried to do it but without the same success.” “When a novel is focused only on the sexual experience, it can be monotonous, repetitive, it can become a tedious experience,” Vargas Llosa said. “However the sexual component can’t be excluded from a great novel, as well as eroticism. It is very difficult to exclude sex because sex is a very important part of human life.”

“STAR WARS” ACTION FIGURES were named to the National Toy Hall of Fame’s class of 2012 on Thursday, along with dominoes. ucts to movies and television series and they note the toys’ appeal extends to adults who continue to collect them. “They are a force to be reckoned with,” said Patricia Hogan, curator at The Strong museum, which houses the Toy Hall of Fame. More than 20 lines of “Star Wars” figures have launched, propelling the

film series’ merchandise sales to $20 billion over the past 35 years. The action figures were first made by Kenner, which was bought by Tonka and later Hasbro. Dominoes originated in China in the 1300s and appeared later in Europe in a slightly different form. A standard set of 28 tiles represents all possible results when rolling a pair of six-sided dice, with the addition of two blank sides. The toys beat out plastic green army men, the board game Clue, the Fisher-Price Corn Popper, Lite-Brite, the Magic 8 Ball, the pogo stick, sidewalk chalk, the electronic game Simon, the tea set and Twister. To date, 49 toys have made the cut. They range from classics, like PlayDoh and Slinky, to the less obvious, like the stick and cardboard box.

‘Star Wars’ figures, dominoes added to Toy Hall of Fame ROCHESTER, N.Y. (AP) — Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia outmuscled little green army men for a spot in the National Toy Hall of Fame. “Star Wars” action figures join centuries-old dominoes in the class of 2012, which was announced by the Rochester hall Thursday. A national selection committee chose them from among 12 finalists, plucking the most ancient and most modern toys from the list. “Star Wars” action figures went on the market in 1978, following the 1977 release of the 20th Century Fox movie. The 3 3/4-inch figures of Han Solo, Chewbacca, R2-D2 and company were sold until 1985 and again from the mid-1990s to today. Museum officials say their phenomenal popularity inspired other toy makers to tie their prod-

Cooking With Kids: Healthy Skills and Habits for Life

WHAT’S NEWS ON

WELLCOMMONS?

Eudora girl flourishing despite accident

If the idea of cooking with children — young children — gives you the chills, you’re not alone. It’s a common feeling among anyone who has spent time cleaning up after a two-year-old eats lunch.

FACES,

Alexis Foster, 8, of Eudora, participates in a variety of sports despite suffering a severed foot in a mowing accident when she was 2. She also has taken home more than two dozen pageant trophies. Participating in pageants has helped give her confidence, and she believes there’s nothing that she can’t do.

Husband’s personality dramatically changed Dear Annie: Not too long ago, my life was perfect: great marriage, good kids, well established in our community and a fantastic sex life. Three years ago my husband retired after a 30-year career in law enforcement. Now our life is hell. Four months before his retirement, my husband became stressed, and his entire personality changed. He has periods of obnoxious highs, but most days are violent lows. He sleeps 12 hours a day, has gained more than 50 pounds and complains constantly of health issues (although numerous doctor visits show nothing). He slams doors, throws things, is verbally abusive and makes threats of physical violence. Everything he says is negative, and he spends a great deal of time making his family feel horrible and unworthy. He is paranoid and control-

I love my husband deeply, but cannot stand the monster he’s become. How do I get this man help when he clearly does not want it? It’s taking a terrible toll. — Want My Husband Back

Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell

Dear Want: Your husband may be bipolar, his retirement may have triggered severe depression, or his anxiety may have pushed him over the edge. But he needs professional assistance. His behavior sounds increasingly abusive, which could be dangerous to those around him. Since he seems willing to see a physician, please notify the doctor in advance of your husband’s behavioral issues. Also contact NAMI (nami.org) and the Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance (dbsalliance.org). We also strongly recommend the National Domestic Violence Hotline (thehotline. org).

ling. I quit my job in my mid-20s to be an at-home mom. He threatens to cut me off financially and reminds me that it’s his car, his home, his money. Prior to his retirement, we were happy, talked about everything and couldn’t keep our hands off of each other. Now, we never talk, and sex happens twice a year. Everyone in the family has suggested he get help, but he says it’s all our fault. People avoid us, we have no friends, and our kids steer clear. It breaks my heart.

Ken Burns presents ‘Dust Bowl’ Imagine a scenario where greed contributes to environmental damage, leading to a natural disaster of unimagined fury — a decade-long nightmare that some people interpret as stirrings of the biblical apocalypse. This may sound like contemporary misgivings about global warming, but it’s the story of “The Dust Bowl” (7 p.m. Sunday, PBS, check local listings), a new documentary from Ken Burns airing over two nights. ‘‘Bowl” includes interviews with survivors of the calamity, which saw the topsoil of America’s heartland literally blow away after unprecedented plowing was followed by a record drought and heat waves. It’s filled with littleseen film footage of devastation and Burns’ patented pan-and-scan use of startling still photography.

Carrie Fisher stars in the 2012 holiday bauble “It’s Christmas, Carol!” (7 p.m. Sunday, Hallmark). She’s the ghost who tries to teach Carol, a Scrooge-like publisher (Emmanuelle Vaugier), the error of her ways. Carol resists her lesson with cranky reluctance right up until the bitter end. Faithful to the plotting of Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol,” the movie departs a bit from the Hallmark formula of sending overscheduled urbanites to the country to get their groove back in the arms of a cowboy type. That doesn’t necessarily make it better. Lifestyle expert Carson Kressley stars as an elfin editor. He has many talents. Acting is not one of them.

Sunday’s other highlights

Scheduled on “60 Minutes” (6 p.m., CBS): the end of a drug cartel; money, power and college football; new notions about morals learned in infancy.

The Pittsburgh Steelers host the Baltimore Ravens on “Sunday Night Football” (7 p.m., NBC).

Justin Bieber and Kelly Clarkson are among the talents on hand for the 40th Anniversary American Music Awards (7 p.m., ABC).

“Superstorm 2012: Hell and High Water” (8 p.m., History) looks at Hurricane Sandy and its aftermath.

Michonne makes a choice regarding Woodbury on “The Walking Dead” (8 p.m., AMC).

Margaret considers her options on “Boardwalk Empire” (8 p.m., HBO).

“Breaking Amish” (9 p.m., TLC) presents a cast reunion.

Terry faces a threatening situation on “Treme” (9 p.m., HBO).

LOSING MONEY By Potter Stern

11/18

Dear Annie: My best friend doesn’t have a car. I give her rides to work, to the supermarket and out to eat. She knows my schedule, and sometimes I have to lie to her because all this chauffeuring becomes too much for me. When I’m not able to give her a ride, she calls me a liar and won’t speak to me for days. I’ve known her for 10 years. I love her and don’t want to lose her friendship. What can I do? — Male Best Friend in N.J. Dear N.J.: This “friend” is taking advantage of you. If you’ve had enough, tell her, “I can’t afford to keep giving you rides unless you chip in for gas.” If driving her is inconvenient, you can nicely tell her that. It might help if you both try to remember that you are doing her a favor, not the other way around. You should not respond to her manipulative anger. jacquelinebigar.com

BRIEFLY Strange watch alerts officials at airport

OAKLAND, CALIF. — A Southern California man was arrested at Oakland International Airport after security officers found him wearing an unusual watch they said could be used to make a timing device for a bomb, authorities said Friday. Geoffrey McGann, 49, of Rancho Palos Verdes was taken into custody Thursday night after he tried to pass through airport security with an ornate watch that had switches, wires and fuses, according to Sgt. J.D. Nelson, a spokesman for the Alameda County Sheriff’s Department. A bomb squad arrived within five minutes and Rajesh Kumar Singh/AP Photo determined there were no INDIAN CHILDREN PLAY ON THE BANKS OF THE GANGES RIVER in Allahabad, India, on explosive materials in the Saturday. watch, Nelson said. The checkpoint was closed while officers secured the area.

Groups protest gay marriage in France

PARIS — Groups opposed to President Francois Hollande’s plans to legalize gay marriage and gay adoptions took to the streets Saturday across France. Hollande said he would enact his “marriage for everyone” plan within a year of coming to power in May, but vocal opposition from religious leaders, some politicians and Hollande parts of rural France has divided the country. Saturday’s protest, called the “March for Everyone,” included pro-family and Catholic groups. Several thousand people marched in Paris, carrying signs with slogans such as “One child (equals) one father + one mother.” Their final destination was the Invalides monument, the final resting place of Napoleon Bonaparte, the French leader who invented the country’s prized civil code, which is still in force today. It states that marriage is a union between a man and a woman, a point the gay marriage bill seeks to overturn. Another reform would be to replace the entries in a child’s registry book from “father” and “mother” to “parent 1” and “parent 2.”

Vets crossed train track after signals MIDLAND, TEXAS — A parade float that collided with a freight train, killing four military veterans, had crossed onto railroad tracks even though warning signals were going off, investigators said Saturday. The U.S. National Transportation Safety Board said the warning bells and signals at the West Texas track were activated 20 seconds before the accident. The second float didn’t go onto the track until several seconds later, just after the guardrail began lowering. Four veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan were killed Thursday when the train slammed into the parade float in Midland. Sixteen people were injured. Nine seconds before the crash, the train sounded its horn, a blaring that lasted four seconds, according to NTSB member Mark Rosekind. The guardrail hit the truck, and then the engineer pulled the emergency brake, trying to bring the train to screeching halt. “Once the crossing becomes active, people should stop,” lead investigator Robert Accetta with the NTSB said. People on the first float and dozens of others who had come out to greet the veterans shrieked and watched in shock, as some aboard the truck tried to jump off, witnesses said. The veterans military instincts kicked in as they treated the wounded.

were clearly wrong on a whole — To hear range of fronts.”

WASHINGTON some Republicans tell it, the Grand Old Party needs to get with the times. Some of the early prescriptions offered by officials and operatives to rebuild after devastating elections: retool the party message to appeal to Latinos, women and workingclass people; upgrade antiquated get-out-the-vote systems with the latest technology. Teach candidates how to handle the new media landscape. From longtime GOP luminaries to the party’s rising stars, almost everyone asked about the Republicans’ Nov. 6 election drubbing seems to agree that a wholesale update is necessary for a party that appears to be running years behind Democrats in adapting to rapidly changing campaigns and an evolving electorate. Interviews with more than a dozen Republicans at all levels of the party indicated that post-election soul-searching must quickly turn into a period of action. “We’ve got to have a very brutally honest review from stem to stern of what we did and what we didn’t do, and what worked and what failed,” said former Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour, who ran the party in the 1990s. The party “has to modernize in a whole wide range of ways,” added former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, who ran against White House nominee Mitt Romney in the 2012

— Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich presidential primary. “We were clearly wrong on a whole range of fronts.” To determine what went wrong, the Republican National Committee is examining every detail of the 2012 elections, with the goal of rebuilding the party for the future — much as the Democratic Party did in the 1980s after suffering a series of stinging losses at all levels of government. Now, as was the case back then, the stakes are enormous for the party that failed to win the White House and has lost the popular vote for several national elections in a row. They’re perhaps even higher for Republicans grappling for ways to court a rapidly changing electorate whose voting groups don’t naturally gravitate toward the GOP. The dangers of failing to act could be severe: permanent minority status. So it’s little surprise that after the election, some Republicans were quick to sound stark warnings. The scale of the losses largely shocked a party whose top-shelf operatives went into Election Day believing Republicans had at least a decent chance of capturing the White House and gaining ground in Congress, where Republicans controlled the House and had a sizable minority in the Senate.

Instead, Romney lost all but one of the nine contested states, North Carolina, to President Barack Obama and was trounced in the electoral vote. Republicans also lost ground to Democrats in both houses of Congress, though Republicans retained their House majority. How to move forward dominated the discussions at last week’s Republican Governors Association meeting in Las Vegas, where some of the party’s leading voices castigated Romney’s assessment — made in what was supposed to be a private telephone call to donors — that Obama won re-election because of the “gifts” the president had provided to blacks, Hispanics and young voters. These governors faulted Romney. Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal attributed Romney’s loss to a lack of “a specific vision that connected with the American people.” Across the board, Republicans say that arguably the most urgent task facing the party is changing its attitude about immigration as it looks to woo Hispanics. This rapidly growing group voted overwhelmingly for Obama, by margins of 7-to-1 over Romney, who had shifted to the right on the issue during the GOP primary.

Pakistan struggles in race to develop armed drones By Sebastian Abbot Associated Press

KARACHI, PAKISTAN — Pakistan is secretly racing to develop its own armed drones, frustrated with U.S. refusals to provide the aircraft, but is struggling in its initial tests with a lack of precision munitions and advanced targeting technology. One of Islamabad’s closest allies and Washington’s biggest rivals, China, has offered to help by selling Pakistan armed drones it developed. But industry experts say there is still uncertainty about the capabilities of the Chinese aircraft. The development of unmanned combat aircraft is especially sensitive in Pakistan because of the widespread unpopularity of the hundreds of U.S. drone strikes against Taliban and al-Qaida militants in the country’s rugged tribal region bordering Afghanistan. The Pakistani government denounces the CIA strikes as a violation of the country’s sovereignty, though senior civilian and military leaders are known to have supported at least some of the attacks in the past. Pakistani officials also call the strikes unproductive, saying they kill many civilians and fuel anger that helps militants recruit additional fighters — allegations denied by the U.S. Pakistan has demanded the U.S. provide it with armed drones, claiming it could more effectively carry out attacks against militants. Washington has refused because of the sensitive nature of the

technology and doubts that Pakistan would reliably target U.S. enemies. The U.S. has held talks with Pakistan about providing unarmed surveillance drones, but Islamabad already has several types of these aircraft in operation, and the discussions have gone nowhere. Inaugurating a defense exhibition in the southern city of Karachi last week, Pakistani Prime Minister Raja Pervaiz Ashraf indicated Islamabad would look for help from Beijing in response to U.S. intransigence. “Pakistan can also benefit from China in defense collaboration, offsetting the undeclared technological apartheid,” said Ashraf. Pakistan has also been working to develop armed drones on its own, said Pakistani military officials and civilians involved in the domestic drone industry, all of whom spoke on condition of anonymity because of the classified nature of the work. Pakistan first began weapons tests seven or eight months ago with the Falco, an Italian drone used by the Pakistani air force for surveillance that has been modified to carry rockets, said a civilian with knowledge of the secret program. The military is also conducting similar tests with the country’s newest drone, the Shahpur, he said. An unarmed version of the Shahpur was unveiled for the first time at the Karachi exhibition. The weapons tests have been limited to a handful of aircraft, and no strikes have been carried out in combat, said the civilian.

NEW YORK — They fell by the thousands, like soldiers in some vast battle of giants, dropping to the earth in submission to a greater force. The winds of Superstorm Sandy took out more trees in the neighborhoods, parks and forests of New York and New Jersey than any previous storm on record, experts say. Nearly 10,000 were lost in New York City alone, and “thousands upon thousands” went down on Long Island, a state parks spokesman said. New Jersey utilities reported more than 113,000 destroyed or damaged trees. “These are perfectly healthy trees, some more than 120 years old, that have survived hurricanes, ice storms, nor’easters, anything Mother Nature could throw their way,” said Todd Forrest, a vice president at the New York Botanical Garden. “Sandy was just too much.” As oaks, spruces and sycamores buckled, many became Sandy’s agents, contributing to the destruction

They caused several deaths, including those of two boys playing in a suburban family room. They left hundreds of thousands of people without power for more than a week. And as homeowners and public officials deal with the cleanup, some tree care experts say the shocking force of the storm weeks ago might mean they should reassess where and how to replant. “When trees go down that have lived a long life and been so beneficial, it’s terrible when they cause injury to people and property,” said Nina Bassuk,

program leader at the Urban Horticulture Institute at Cornell University. “We have to replant better and do it smarter.” For example, she said, a soil substitute can help trees extend their roots beneath pavement so maybe they can keep their balance in high winds. Frank Juliano, executive director of the Reeves-Reed Arboretum in Summit, N.J., which lost uncounted trees on its perimeter, said those might not be replaced. But Bram Gunther, chief of forestry, horticulture and natural resources for the New York City Department of Parks & Recreation, said, “Some trees may have been planted where they shouldn’t have been and you have other infrastructure conflicts. You don’t stop planting trees.” Gunther said last week that the city had counted 9,662 downed trees on its streets and in its parks after Sandy and the nor’easter that followed. That’s more than the combined total from tornadoes in 2010 and last year’s Hurricane Irene and October snowstorm.

ASSIUT, EGYPT — A speeding train that crashed into a bus carrying Egyptian children to their kindergarten on Saturday killed 51 and prompted a wave of anger against a government under mounting pressure to rectify the former regime’s legacy of neglect. The crash, which killed children between 4 and 6 years old and three adults, led to local protests and accusations from outraged Egyptians that President Mohammed Morsi is failing to deliver on the demands of last year’s uprising for basic rights, dignity and social justice. The accident left behind a mangled shell of a bus twisted underneath the blood-splattered train outside the city of Assiut, some 200 miles south of Cairo. A witness said the train pushed the bus along the tracks for nearly a half-mile. More than a dozen injured children were being treated

in two different facilities, many with severed limbs and in critical condition. Several hours after the accident, Morsi appeared on state television, promising an investigation and financial compensation for victims’ families. His transport minister and the head of Egypt’s railways resigned. “Those responsible for this accident will be held accountable,” Morsi said. The response, his critics say, comes too little too late. For months, transport workers have been complaining about poor management and poor working conditions. Saturday’s accident falls exactly one week after two trains collided south of Cairo, killing four people. While many train accidents in Egypt are blamed on an outdated system that relies heavily on switch operators instead of automated signaling, the high death toll and fact that nearly all those killed were young children will likely give ammunition to Morsi’s critics who say he has done little to improve life for ordinary Egyptians.
