‘THE FIRST WEEK OF COLLEGE HAS BEEN AN EYE-OPENER’

Dear Mom & Dad

Supreme Court’s decision could have big impact on election

We asked several Kansas University freshmen to write “letters home” telling their families what they’ve learned in their first weeks on campus.

Here’s what they said:

Dear Mom and Dad, The first week of college has been an extreme eye-opener to what being an adult is like. I no longer had anyone to hold my hand as I made my way to my first day of class. I no longer had the friends who promised in middle school we would definitely be together our first year of college. But most imI hope my portantly, I no loncats are doing ger needed those well. Don’t let things.

Although makDad give them ing new friends away, Mom.” is something I’ve never personally been good at, KU made it so simple.

Living in the dorms my first year was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Everyone on the fourth floor of Hashinger opened their arms to the awkward, shy girl (me) who doesn’t even know exactly where she is going in life, but maybe loves writing a little too much.

Also, I don’t know if I told you, but I already switched my major two weeks in. I have a feeling I’ll be doing a lot of that, so I’m sorry in advance.

I hope my cats are doing well. Don’t let Dad give them away, Mom. I miss you and will see you both soon!

Love, Brooklyn

The race for the U.S. Senate continued to heat up this past week as the Kansas Supreme Court prepared to decide which candidates will appear on the ballot.

The court’s decision could have a big impact on who eventually wins the race and, as a result, which party controls the Senate next year.

On Tuesday, the court Kobach will hear arguments in the case of Taylor v. Kobach, the lawsuit brought by Democratic candidate Chad Taylor seeking to force Secretary of State Kris Kobach to remove Taylor’s name from the ballot.

Many believe that if Taylor is successful, it Taylor could benefit independent Greg Orman in his bid to unseat Roberts,

This is at the core of the secretary of state’s responsibilities. The Kansas statutes detail numerous points in the elections process where the secretary of state has to exercise discretionary judgment and say, ‘Yes, this is good enough,’ or ‘No, it’s not.’”

EDITORS Julie Wright, managing editor 832-6361, jwright@ljworld.com Tom Keegan, sports editor 832-7147, tkeegan@ljworld.com Ann Gardner, editorial page editor 832-7153, agardner@ljworld.com

— Kris Kobach, Kansas secretary of state OTHER CONTACTS to get off the ballot. He couldn’t avoid coming on stage.

“This is at the core of the secretary of state’s responsibilities,” Kobach said. “The Kansas statutes detail numerous points in the elections process where the secretary of state has to exercise discretionary judgment and say, ‘Yes, this is good enough,’ or ‘No, it’s not.’”

Taylor filed a petition asking the Kansas Supreme Court to order Kobach to take Taylor’s name off the Nov. 4 ballot. The justices plan to hear the case Tuesday and are expected to rule by the end of the week — when the state must start sending ballots to overseas military personnel.

Kobach’s decision to keep Taylor’s name on the ballot is reminding voters of how much he’s pulled the secretary of state’s office from the state’s political background.

When he won the office in 2010, he already had a national reputation as a law professor for helping officials in other states draft laws for cracking down on illegal

immigration, particularly get-tough policies in Alabama and Arizona. In Kansas, he’s jumped into debates over gun rights, the federal health care overhaul and even resistance to potential federal restrictions on farming, ranching and energy production to protect the lesser prairie chicken. In filing for re-election, he described himself as “a guardian of state sovereignty.”

Critics have accused him of not being focused on the secretary of state’s duties and of spending too much time outside the office. Former state Sen. Jean Schodorf, his Democratic challenger in his reelection race, accused him last week of “dereliction of duty” because he wasn’t physically present when Taylor delivered his formal letter of withdrawal and interacted with Kobach’s staff.

“We are all tired of the embarrassment that comes from Kris Kobach, who chooses to engage in his personal agenda outside of the office rather than serve the needs of the state,” Schodorf said in a statement. “Where was Kris Kobach?”

“

Politically, whether Roberts faces one candidate or two, it’s just different strategies.”

— Clay Barker, executive director of the Kansas Republican Party Kansas needs new leadership, and we’re going to be following this very closely,” Perkey said.

Taylor is being represented by Topeka attorney Pedro Irigonegaray, who has brought in help from a prominent national Democratic lawyer, Marc E. Elias, a Washington attorney who has previously represented the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee.

Polls conducted before Taylor withdrew from the race showed him running a close second behind Roberts, with Orman not far behind in third, and Libertarian candidate Randall Batson polling in the single digits. Shortly after Taylor’s attempt to withdraw, a SurveyUSA poll showed a virtual tie between Roberts and Orman, with Taylor still getting 10 percent of the vote.

At issue in the court battle is a 1997 law that spells out the procedure for taking a nominee’s name off the ballot. That law allows for a withdrawal under only two circumstances: death, or a candidate’s incapacity to fulfill the duties of the office if elected.

In the latter circumstance, it says the candidate must “declare” that he or she would be incapable of holding the job, but it does not say the candidate must state what that incapacity is. Nor does it specify what qualifies as an incapacity.

Nonetheless, Kobach has refused to accept Taylor’s

WHO’S REALLY IN CHARGE HERE?

Years ago, all funeral homes were owned by local families.

They served friends and neighbors, not just customers. Not so true anymore! Today, many funeral homes are more like puppets on a string – a large out-of-town corporation names the tune, they simply dance to it.

withdrawal, saying he failed to make such a declaration in the letter he filed with the Secretary of State’s office.

Taylor argues that he met the requirement of the law by filing a written, notarized letter saying he was withdrawing “pursuant to” that statute. He further argues that if the statute prevents any person from refusing to accept a nomination, then that would violate the Kansas Constitution’s guarantee of a right to free speech.

Taylor has not said publicly why he withdrew from the race, but he had come under pressure from some Democrats to pull out in order to give the better-financed Orman campaign a smoother path to unseating Roberts.

The court will hear arguments starting at 9 a.m.

Tuesday. Both sides will be allowed 20 minutes for oral arguments.

Retired Douglas County District Judge Michael Malone will sit with the court to hear the case, as well as several other cases over the next few months. He will temporarily fill the seat recently vacated when former Justice Nancy Moritz was named to the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.

Caleb Stegall, whom Gov. Sam Brownback appointed to fill Moritz’s seat, will be sworn in as the newest justice Dec. 5.

The court is expected to rule quickly on the case because the deadline for finalizing ballots is Friday.

Green groups, ECM team up for climate events

A first in faith

By Caitlin Doornbos Twitter: @CaitlinDoornbos

A coalition of Lawrence environmental, art and church groups hopes to start a conversation about climate change this weekend with a series of events focused on environmentalism.

The events will kick off Friday with a “pray-in and teach-in” regarding climate change. The coalition invites the public to stop by Plymouth Congregational Church, 925 Vermont St., between 9 a.m. and 1 p.m.

The Rev. Thad Holcombe, of Ecumenical Campus Ministries, said in a news release that “climate change” refers to the process of global warming.

On Saturday, the coalition will host a party from noon to 3 p.m. on the west side of South Park. Attendees can create artwork and signs to be used in a march around the park at John Young/Journal-World Photos

the daughter’s lives from kindergarten through their graduation from Eudora High School.

“Even up until he died he claimed them as his children, and then their kids as his grandchildren,” Fisher said. “He treasured them.”

On Aug. 31, two people discovered Kemberling lying face down in the water of a small creek south of the Kansas River in Burcham Park. Lawrence police finally identified Kemberling’s body on Wednesday, after 10 days of reviewing medical records.

Lawrence Police spokesman Trent McKinley said last week that his identification was delayed due to the condition of Kemberling’s body, “which had likely been there for some time.”

When the news broke, so did Fisher’s heart. The way he was discovered said so little about the

man with whom she’d raised a family, Fisher said.

“It sounded like he was a homeless man and had no people to care about him,” Fisher said. “That was not the case.”

In 1981, Fisher was introduced to Kemberling when she was just 22, and she was immediately drawn to the 25-year-old roofer, whom she described as “outgoing, compassionate and polite.”

“We fell in love immediately,” Fisher said.

Though the two were only legally married for 18 months, Fisher said they were together on and off for 19 years. Kemberling had a problem with alcohol, Fisher said, which took a toll on their relationship.

“He drank all his life from the time he was a young teenager,” Fisher said. “But then he would sober up and you’d see his true person.”

He’d battled the addiction for years, both Woodson and Fisher said.

He turned to alcohol during the good times, and the bad, Fisher said.

But during the many

happy times, Woodson said, he brought loved ones bliss.

Woodson remembers when Kansas University won the 1988 NCAA basketball championship and Kemberling brought her to Kemper Arena.

Though they didn’t have the money for tickets to the game, he took her to watch the open practice before the game began, Woodson said.

“These past few days have been difficult with all the memories flooding back,” Woodson said.

Fisher misses Kemberling’s singing voice the most. He’d made tapes of himself singing love songs to her, which she plans to play at his funeral service. His deep, thundering voice soothed her when the two would break up, then reconcile over and over during

their 19-year romance.

“He lived with my little brother when we weren’t together,” Fisher said.

“I’d hear him sing and my heart would melt.”

Woodson said Kemberling’s alcoholism only grew when he hurt his back during a roofing job and he turned to drinking to numb the pain. Eventually, Fisher and Kemberling parted for good when his alcohol problem proved too much to handle, Fisher said. Kemberling remarried, and Fisher moved to Lansing.

“The last time we separated and didn’t get back together was because I finally realized he was on a path I could not follow,” Fisher said. “I think that might be called self-preservation on my part.”

Fisher last saw Kemberling in Lawrence about 6 months ago, when he

Wichita — Small communities across Kansas are sparking a revival in movie theaters as a way to bring locals together and make movies more accessible in rural areas.

The Wichita Eagle reports Marci Penner, director of the Kansas Sampler Foundation, estimates there are more than 30 theaters open in small

and St. Francis, bucking a trend that started decades ago as multiplex theaters opened in larger cities.

The president of the Larned State Theater’s board of directors says civic leaders started discussing ways to reopen the theater after it closed in the mid-90s partly to keep local youth from having to drive to other cities to see a show.

was walking to his mobile home with fists full of bagged groceries and Fisher stopped to give him a ride. But he wasn’t entirely coherent, Fisher said.

“I told him, ‘See ya later, I love you,” Fisher said. “But I’m not sure he really knew who I was.”

How he ended up near the banks of the Kansas River remains a mystery, but foul play is not suspected. Earlier this week, Fisher and her youngest daughter, Nicole, brought

flowers and notes to Kemberling to the bridge overlooking the area where he was found to say goodbye.

Fisher said if there’s one thing to take from the life and death of her former lover, it’s to enjoy living, but act responsibly.

“He did have a very full life, but the damage that alcohol can cause is very real,” Fisher said.

“Hearts are broken. Lives are lost.”

my feet get when they hit the ground. I’m not used to waiting for an elevator so I can leave my living space.

Maybe I do miss you?

But Lawrence is home. I know you’ve seen what I’ve written with the University Daily Kansan, and it’s probably my favorite part about being in Lawrence thus far.

I’m getting to do what I love every day, and I get the privilege of seeing my name in print and distributed to thousands of students and faculty almost every day.

LAWRENCE

.

That’s exciting.

Classes are a breeze, save for calculus, which is already giving me some trouble. It just means I have to buckle down and study harder. Meanwhile, I’ve also already started to develop a love for my other major, computer studies. I didn’t come to Lawrence thinking I would enjoy coding so much.

There are so many opportunities here, and though I’ve jumped on my opportunity with the Kansan, there are so many others that I haven’t.

It’ll probably change as I get more accustomed to this new place I call home.

I’ll be back soon, Christian

Angelica “Angie” Baldelomar Pinto

“

In spite of that, I had the chance to go out and visit some places like the sunflower field. I also had American barbecue; it is a delicious dish!”

Dear Mom and Dad, Things here in Kansas — and in the United States in general — are extremely different from Bolivia. First off, the university campus is so huge. The first week, I even got lost, but now I know the campus quite well. International orientation was tons of fun. I met a lot of people from around the world.

Classes began three weeks ago and I was nervous the first day, but everything went fine. I really like the courses I am taking. They are challenging, but interesting. I have a

fair amount of homework every day, which keeps me busy. In spite of that, I had the chance to go out and visit some places like the sunflower field. I also had American barbecue; it is a delicious dish!

I am really enjoying my time here. Sometimes, I feel overwhelmed because everything is different. I guess it will take me a bit more time to completely get used to this place. Anyway, I am enjoying it day by day, taking the most out of it. I definitely do not regret coming here. I am a proud Jayhawk now.

I miss all of you back home so much. I will try to write more frequently.

Lots of love, Angie

Join us for

Mackenzie “Mack” Williams Dear family back home, Wow, I made it to college. Better yet, I made it through my first three weeks of college. I know you’ve always had a lot of faith in me, but sometimes I felt this time would never come. The hardest part has been adjusting from going to a high school with well under 700 students to a college with over 30,000.

That’s a big change for someone who has known Dear Mom and Dad, College is absolutely incredible. Actually, incredible doesn’t even give college or the thrill of finally being on your own any valued justice. It’s not even the thrill of being independent, but it’s the thrill of jumping into your final years of development before life and life’s challenges and limitations take place. College is a world full of millions of opportunities to truly find yourself, flourish and make a difference. I have this new confidence that the longer I’m here at KU, I can conquer the universe.

I feel so free, like limitations don’t even exist. Don’t worry, Dad, I haven’t met a boy who has swept me off my feet yet. And Mom, you were so right about packing extra pants and sweaters, because it’s already getting chilly down here.

My roommate is such a dream; going potluck did

every thing about everyone and their grandfather since kindergarten. The big moment where I realized, “Hey I’m a big girl now, in college,” was when I did seven hours of homework in a row. Yes, seven whole hours.

I love my dorm and my roommate a lot. We put in months of effort to make our room just like home, with recliners, Netflix and lots of coffee.

One weird thing: I love my classes — most of them at least. The bad thing about a 900 person class is the constant, and I mean constant, sniffling and coughing. It’s driving me nutso.

I can also feel those “KU calves” everyone talks about. I am walking about 3.26 miles every day, and yes, I believe that this will prevent me from gaining the freshman 15. I have explored what people call “frat parties” and let me tell you: too many people. The first home football game was awesome.

There is a lot of spirit and a lot of drunk people. I have become friends with new people and talked to random students during passing, so that’s a big accomplishment already.

Mom and Dad, this isn’t what you probably want to hear, but what I miss most about home is my cat. I miss my cuddle buddy;

“

The big moment where I realized, ‘Hey I’m a big girl now, in college,’ was when I did seven hours of homework in a row.

Yes, seven whole hours.” now I just have to cuddle with myself and there’s nothing enjoyable about that. Don’t get me wrong, I miss you guys too. I promise to make you all proud and someday graduate as a Jayhawk, though in how many years, I am leaving unspecified.

I can already tell this is going to be the experience of a lifetime (in a good way) and I can’t wait to see what Lawrence brings to my life.

Love, Mack

“

My roommate is such a dream; going potluck did me well.

I don’t take the bus ever because it’s always so crowded.”

Emily Marie Horton me well. I don’t take the bus ever because it’s always so crowded, so I walk everywhere. I think my legs are getting their own individual six packs, so you should be proud.

I miss our daily life talks and hugs in the kitchen, Mom. And Dad, I miss sitting down and

watching our show together every Tuesday and Thursday. It’s different not really considering home my “home,” because it’s not anymore. It’s just a temporary home. Back in Tulsa. I’m so happy I get to call University of Kansas my home now. Thank

you for the opportunity you have given me to come here.

Give the dogs a big hug for me. I’m excited to see you guys in a couple of months! I promise that I am taking good care of myself; not just with food, but with making wise decisions. You have raised me well and built a desire within me to dream and go as far as I can with my goals. Nothing can stop me. I feel so lucky to have parents like you guys. I love you.

Your daughter, Emily

Baldwin CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

Keeping an eye out for salvageable items in today’s throwaway society helps keep him in business. It something he’s done since growing up in Meriden, the son of a “fix-everything type of guy,” Hibberts said.

“People ask me where I learned to do this,” he said. “I’ve never not done it. I figure if it’s already broke, I can probably fix it. If I can’t, it’s not going to get any more broken.”

He got into the small-engine repair business as a stayat-home father to his two children while his wife went to pharmacy school and then started working as a pharmacist, Hibberts said.

He opened his shop in Baldwin City about 11 months ago.

The core of the business is lawnmowers, and eight mowers either sit outside his shop on a trailer for delivery after repairs or are lined up on the grass waiting for buyers. Hibberts also works on chainsaws, snow blowers and rototillers. The front room of his shop is also filled with all manner of odds and ends that he’s been traded to offset repair bills, from Hot Wheel toy sets to motorcycle helmets.

Hibberts says his business model to buy or trade for anything but guns or “things that need to be fed.”

Elvyn Jones/Journal-World Photo

He won’t budge on the first rule, but he admits there’s a little wiggle room on the second because “it’s hard to turn down a good lizard,” such as the spiny-headed lizard, now kept in an aquarium in his office, that once provided the payment for an $80 lawnmower repair.

In the shop and his office are three mopeds from the ’60s and ’70s.

They are part of his collection of nine Hibberts said.

“Lawnmowers pay the rent, and for my voracious addiction to collecting mopeds,” Hibberts said. “Everybody who knows me knows I’m always looking for old mopeds.”

Mopeds, even the better models like the two-speed Czech-made Puch he uses to buzz around Baldwin City, were bikes made for a couple of years’ use

until they broke down, Hibbert said.

“The joke among moped collections is you found it because someone forgot to throw it

away,” he said. “Part of the appeal is they are so simple to work on. I love the thrill of finding a rusty hunk of metal in the woods and fixing it up.”

He also collects old Maytag washing machines’ gasoline engines and hit-and-miss engines that proSTEVE v i d e d HIBBERTS f a r m SAYS HIS ers with SMALL ENGINE p o w e r before REPAIR SHOP r u r a l is a cover for electrifihis addiction cation. for collecting “They and repairing all have stories,” mopeds.

Hibberts said “How were they used? What have they seen? When you get them up and running, it’s like giving them a whole new life.”

He gets the same thrill tearing into lawnmower engines, but realizes what may be fun for him might not make sense for an owner looking to get an older model repaired.

| 7A

“What I really am is a mower psychotherapist,” he said. “When people bring in an old mower, we see if I can get it fixed by only spending so much money. If not, I tell them it’s been a good mower, but maybe it’s time to let it go and let’s look at getting them something else.”

Although he may not always be right, he’ll always be truthful, Hibberts said. He reveals his honesty with the confession he’s not the best small-engine repair option in Baldwin City.

That would be lifelong resident and longtime fire chief Archie Carlson, Hibberts said.

“He’s what I aspire to be,” he said. “I have the utmost respect for him.

He’s just like I am — we just like to fix them.”

“I really love heights – the higher, the better!”

Years ago, I went skydiving over southeast Kansas. It was truly breathtaking. Soaring high in the sky and zooming back to the beautiful prairies down below…I loved every minute of it.

speak, but I could tell in his eyes he was looking for help. I started praying for him.”

It was a routine day for Barron-Jaramillo. She had attended church services with her family and then gathered at her parents’ home in Oakland for lunch.

Shortly after 4 p.m., Barron-Jaramillo got behind the wheel of her truck with her son Dominic Jaramillo and his girlfriend, Miranda Garcia.

“We were on our way home,” she said.

They were eastbound on Southeast Sixth Street when they noticed a police car stopped in the road facing west.

“He (Dominic Jaramillo) said, ‘Oh my gosh, someone is lying in the street,’” Barron-Jaramillo said. “I put it in park.”

Barron-Jaramillo ran across the street to Harwood. She saw two women — one was on her phone, while the other was recording the scene with her phone.

“I saw someone down, and I had to help him — to do something,” Barron-Jaramillo said.

She had taken CPR classes and immediately rendered aid.

“This is not a mannequin,” she said. “This is the real thing. Blood was running down his arm.”

Barron-Jaramillo yelled for her son to call 911. Another man came out of nowhere and offered his help. He took over CPR as Barron-Jaramillo moved to cradle Harwood’s head in her hands.

“It was my motherly instinct,” she said. “I lost focus of my surroundings.

He was a person in need — desperate need.”

Barron-Jaramillo saw a radio on Harwood’s uni-

“I screamed, ‘Officer down, officer down, Sixth and Deer Creek. Officer down. Please help us.

Please help us,’” BarronJaramillo said.

Barron-Jaramillo talked to Harwood as the man kept performing CPR. She talked about her faith. She told him God was going to see them through. She whispered for him to hang on.

Harwood looked up at her “with these big blue eyes,” she said. He didn’t talk and gasped for breath.

“It felt like forever” until emergency services showed up, Barron-Jaramillo said. In reality, she realized later, it didn’t take that long.

“I looked up and there were police everywhere,” she said.

Emergency personnel removed Harwood’s shirt and were trying to remove his bulletproof vest, which appeared to have bullet holes in it. BarronJaramillo was still at Harwood’s head and was able to pull off the vest. She noticed a gunshot wound near his side in the stomach area.

An officer pulled her up and away from the corporal and thanked her for her help. She looked down and saw blood covering her hands from the back of Harwood’s head.

Her pants also were covered in blood.

Her son led her to the truck, and they went to Barron-Jaramillo’s home.

“I was still trying to comprehend everything that had happened,” she said.

Barron-Jaramillo washed the blood from her hands and arms. She changed her pants and placed a phone call to one of her cousins who works at the police department.

“I needed to know for my own peace of mind that he was going to be OK,” Barron-Jaramillo said. “God put me there for a reason. I know my God will never give me more than I can handle.

He put me there to help that officer.”

Barron-Jaramillo called her mother, who offered comfort as Barron-Jaramillo relayed through tears what had happened.

“People say she took a big risk,” said Juanita Barron, Barron-Jaramillo’s

mother. “I’m proud of her.

I’m glad she was out there to help.”

Barron-Jaramillo didn’t consider the risk, she said, and doesn’t regret helping. Family members and friends sent her messages through Facebook, thanking her for what she did.

“People I didn’t even know,” she said. “I didn’t know how to respond. I don’t look at myself as being heroic. It was just human nature to help someone.”

Barron and her daughter prayed. And Barron-Jaramillo waited on a call that would tell her Harwood would survive.

That call never came.

Later that night, BarronJaramillo, as well as her son and his girlfriend, were asked to give statements at the police department. As she spoke to two officers, she asked how Harwood was doing. With tears in their eyes, they told her he had died.

“I lost it at that point,” Barron-Jaramillo said.

“Guilt just poured into me.

I thought: ‘What did I not do right? What could I have done differently?’ I wanted people to stop thanking me. This man died.”

Wichita (ap) — While Democratic gubernatorial candidate Paul Davis’ appointee to a school efficiency task force has been called on to resign over comments he made about school consolidation, there has been no similar outcry over comments made by a Republican appointee.

Republican Gov. Sam Brownback began attacking Davis on the consolidation issue this month based on remarks that Davis’ appointee, John Vratil, made in a 2011 article in The Topeka Capital-Journal about rural Kansas population decline. Vratil, a Republican who is a former vice president of the Kansas Senate, predicted that “rural school districts will be starved out of existence.”

The Brownback campaign has sent out mailers warning Kansans of the “Davis-Vratil Education Agenda: CONSOLIDATION.” Davis has said he opposes forcing small districts to combine to concentrate resources, and his spokesman, Chris Pumpelly, said in an email that Republicans are engaged in “political posturing.”

Senate Majority Leader Terry Bruce, R-Hutchinson, sent out a statement demanding the removal of Vratil, who insists his comments were misconstrued.

Vratil told the CapitalJournal this week that he intended to highlight economic and demographic forces working against retention of nearly 300 public school districts scattered across Kansas. Vratil said there was nothing in the 2011 story to support the contention he sought forced consolidation of

districts.

Vratil also said he is not Davis’ “top education adviser” as Brownback said earlier this month at the Kansas State Fair. Vratil said that assertion was “absolutely false” and that he had never talked to Davis about being his adviser “on anything.”

Nevertheless, Bruce was joined by 12 other Republican senators in urging Vratil’s removal. Meanwhile, a coalition of 11 House Republicans from rural districts issued a statement voicing concern about Vratil on Friday.

But there has been no similar outcry over Republican House Speaker Ray Merrick’s appointment of Dave Trabert to the efficiency task force, The Wichita Eagle reports. Trabert, president of the Kansas Policy Institute, a conservative think tank, wrote in a 2010 report for the policy institute that, “Consolidation of extremely small districts is not a popular topic for discussion, but one that should occur.”

In a phone call, Trabert said that he is not advocating that consolidation needs to happen, but that he thinks it should be an option.

“There’s a handful of districts in Kansas where there’s only six or seven kids per grade level in an entire district,” Trabert said. He pointed to the districts in Gove County where several districts have a total of about 100 students among all grades.

“Those kids cannot have the same education opportunities as kids in a different-sized district.”

U.S. to name allies in Islamic State fight this week Washington (ap) — The White House said Sunday it will find countries willing to send combat troops to fight Islamic extremists in Syria and Iraq, but it’s too early to identify them.

White House chief of staff Denis McDonough signaled that the State Department in coming days will name allies that will pledge ground troops to fight the Islamic State group, something the United States does not plan to do. Meantime, McDonough said, U.S. personnel will train and equip Iraqi forces and moderate Syrian rebels to combat the extremist group, also known as ISIS and ISIL. President Barack Obama announced Wednesday that the United States will ramp up air strikes and try to build an international coalition to degrade and eventually destroy the group.

The Islamic State group released a video late Saturday showing a militant beheading a British aid worker. It was similar to recent beheadings of two American journalists.

Facing strong public opposition to sending U.S. troops back into the Middle East, Obama said he doesn’t plan to do so.

Terrorists making millions Washington (ap) — Islamic State militants, who once relied on wealthy Persian Gulf donors for money, have become a self-sustaining financial juggernaut, earning more than $3 million a day from oil smuggling, human trafficking, theft and extortion, according to U.S. intelligence officials and private experts.

The extremist group’s resources exceed that “of any other terrorist group in history,” said a U.S. intelligence official.

The Islamic State group has taken over large sections of Syria and Iraq, and controls as many as 11 oil fields in both countries, analysts say.

But he said ground troops of some form are essential, a point McDonough was asked about on several talk shows Sunday.

McDonough repeatedly declined to name any nations willing to provide ground forces,

and he was cautious in suggesting what might develop.

On NBC’s “Meet the Press,” McDonough said Secretary of State John Kerry “over the coming days” will discuss whether any allied nation has pledged ground troops.

“And what he has said is that others have suggested that they’re willing to do that,” McDonough said.

Pressed again on possible pledges of combat troops, McDonough seemed slightly less hesitant. “You will hear from Secretary Kerry that countries are saying that they’re ready to do that,” he said.

Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbot said Sunday his nation is preparing to contribute 600 troops and up to 10 military aircraft to the campaign against the Islamic State group extremists.

For the last week, Kerry has traveled across the Mideast, to Turkey and finally Paris, to pin down nations on what kind of support they will give to a global coalition. But Kerry has refused to detail what countries have committed. He said some nations are still deciding whether their contributions will target foreign fighters or financiers helping the mili-

tant group, send more humanitarian aid to Syrian and Iraqi refugees, mount a propaganda campaign to decry the extremists’ brand of radical Islam or join a military mission.

Kerry cited reports

that France is prepared to use air power against the Islamic militants. On Monday, Paris will host international talks seeking a strategy against the militants in Iraq, where they have overrun vast swaths

of territory in the country’s north and west. But the militant group’s safe haven is in Syria, among numerous Sunni rebel factions that have fought for more than three years to unseat President Bashar Assad.

Big changes are coming to The Merc Fresh juice, fine coffee, surrounded by local produce: It sounds just like my daily breakfast because I’m almost certain mini-powdered doughnuts, Cap’n Crunch and Nutter Butters are all grown locally. Well, regardless, get ready for an upgrade in the world of coffee and juice establishments, as The Merc has plans for a new shop as part of a major renovation project.

The Merc is in the beginning stages of an approximately $500,000 renovation at its grocery at Ninth and Iowa streets. A new coffee and juice shop will be one of the more visible changes shoppers will notice. General Manager Rita York Hennecke says The Merc will be expanding the coffee and smoothie program and will be adding organic juices to the menu. Currently, the store’s espresso bar is kind of tucked away in a corner of the building.

Hennecke said the location will change to a spot that is much more visible to shoppers.

“You won’t have to be in the know anymore to get your coffee,” she said.

Hennecke said the new coffee/juice bar also will have an expanded seating area, will offer an expanded line of baked goods from The Merc’s instore bakery, and will put a greater emphasis on a quick-service menu.

“We want people to be able to stop by on their way to work and get a cup of coffee,” she said.

Other improvements in the renovation project include a new express check-out lane and a relocation and upgrade to the store’s customer service desk.

The desk will be more visible and will be a great place to tout The Merc’s cooperative ownership structure, Hennecke said. The Merc has about 7,000 co-op members who are owners of the store, although you do not have to be an owner of the store to shop there.

Some renovations to the office area and receiving area also are on tap for phase one of the renovation. Work is expected to begin Sept. 29 and last through Nov. 11. The store will remain open throughout the renovation.

The store also is planning a phase two renovation that would begin one early 2015, pending approval of the co-op’s board of directors. That will include a new ceiling and new energy efficient lighting system for the grocery.

Hennecke said the renovations are a sign that The Merc recognizes it needs to continue investing in itself in order to thrive in what is becoming a much more competitive grocery market. Sprouts, a farmers market-style grocer, is under construction near Wakarusa and Overland drives in West Lawrence, and Natural Grocers on 23rd Street has come to the Lawrence market since The Merc’s last major renovation in 2007.

Plus, traditional grocery stores are expanding their health, organic and locally grown departments, which has long been the calling card of The Merc.

“We are preparing for increased competition,” Hennecke said.

Town Talk

Chad Lawhorn clawhorn@ljworld.com

“We understand we have to step up our game in so many ways.

We have started to do that with our pricing strategy, our sampling program, and now this renovation. We want to be strong. We don’t just want to survive competition.”

The timing of the renovation also is good in another way: The Merc is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year, which is amazing.

But not as amazing as the fact that apparently Nutter Butters aren’t grown anywhere. How can that be? They look like a giant peanut. lll

Let us count what Lawrence legitimately may be able to claim it is the capital of: l Crazed Basketball Fans Who Spend 30 Hours a Week on Face Painting and Basketball Recruiting Notebooks l Football Fans Who Find It too Much Work to Watch Their Football Team l People Who Honk for “Hemp” (Undoubtedly, it is the hemp they really are interested in.)

So, perhaps it shouldn’t be too much of a surprise that Lawrence might be able to lay claim to another title: Capital of the Part-Time Worker.

A new national study suggests part-time workers may be more prevalent in the Lawrence economy than in any other metro area in the country. The respected publication Governing has analyzed a set of federal statistics about the average number of hours private sector employees work in a week. It found in July that Lawrence employees worked just 25.6 hours per week, on average. The article found that was the lowest weekly average of any metro area in the country. It certainly is low. The national average was 34.5 hours per week. University communities often come in less than the national average (especially during the summer) because they have a large number of students who work part time, and those workers bring the overall average down. But a quick look at the numbers would suggest that is down, and then you make your way through the empty kegs, the lawn chairs, the copies of Leisurely Living magazine, the intricate origami projects and then you find Lawrence. In other words, Lawrence was a lot lower than many university communities.

Here’s a look at some other university communities: l Ames, Iowa: 36.1 hours l Bloomington, Ind.: 32.5 hours l Champaign-Urbana, Ill.: 32.5 hours l College Station, Texas: 36 hours l Columbia, Mo.: 35 hours l Fort Collins, Colo.: 33.3 hours l Iowa City, Iowa: 35.9 hours l Lubbock, Texas: 35.6 hours l Manhattan: 33 hours l Morgantown, W.Va.

38.3 hours There were three university communities I particularly wanted to check in on. If you remember, I reported on another study earlier this month that found Lawrence was one of the smartest metro areas in the country, measured by average degree level held by its residents. Only Provo, Utah, Ithaca, N.Y. and Boulder, Colo., were found to be smarter than us. But Provo works 34.1 hours, Ithaca, 35.1 hours and Boulder, 34.4 hours.

Who is smarter now, brainiacs? We’re making origami Yodas over here, while you’re staring at some database or something.

I also wanted to check out how other communities around us fared. Here are those numbers: l Kansas City: 34.8 hours l Topeka: 32.7 hours l Wichita: 36.6 hours l Joplin, Mo.: 38.3 hours l St. Joseph, Mo.: 33.2 hours So, it doesn’t appear that our region is much different than the national scene, except for Lawrence. It is almost like people are driving to work and saying, “Hey, that’s hemp. Let’s skip work and honk for awhile.”

Obviously, I’m just having a little fun here. I don’t know exactly what these numbers mean.

But as the article in Governing pointed out, the numbers are kind of important. Businesses of-

ten look at the average number of hours their employees are working when determining whether to add employees. Generally, commu- Davison nities with high average work weeks are more likely to be adding jobs than those with low average work weeks.

But who knows if that is really true. I think the best we can do is ask the origami Yoda for his opinion.

Rural boost A new effort of the Kansas Sampler Foundation is striving to connect rural communities to donors and volunteers who want to support their towns.

D

uring a campaign season, it’s common for Kansas candidates to express concern and support for rural communities across the state.

While politicians are pondering this topic and debating what to do to help struggling rural communities, the Kansas Sampler Foundation is rolling up its sleeves and getting to work.

The Inman-based foundation, which is dedicated to preserving and sustaining rural culture in Kansas is involved in many community-building activities around the state. Now it is preparing to kick off a groundbreaking crowd-funding website designed to connect rural communities with needs to donors and volunteers who can help meet those needs.

The website, called Kanstarter, is being developed by Reflective Group in Baldwin City, and organizers hope it will be online by mid-October. On the site, people will be able to read about projects, watch videos and then decide whether they would like to support those projects either with donations or volunteer efforts. Four community projects already have been selected for inclusion on the site: an updated miniature golf course in Burdett, the purchase of land to build a grocery store in Plains, construction of an amphitheater to replace the Wilson Opera House and construction of a recreational trail in Yates Center.

Kanstarter is getting a financial kickstart in the form of $200,000 in community service tax credits from the Kansas Department of Commerce. Those tax credits will be used as an incentive to Kanstarter donors, who can recoup part of their donation when they file their income tax returns.

Marci Penner, the director as well as the heart and soul of the Kansas Sampler Foundation, sees Kanstarter as a new way to let the world know what rural communities need. Of the 626 incorporated towns in Kansas, three-fourths have populations under 1,500, Penner says in a video at kanstarter.com. In communities that small, she says, it’s up to volunteers to figure out how to keep a town going, and Kanstarter can help them connect to resources that can help.

“It’s like a dating service.… It’s match. com for communities and people who care about communities,” said Penner.

The idea of online crowd-funding is to bring in small amounts from a large number of people. Donations of all sizes no doubt will be welcome as Kanstarter gets off the ground next month. It’s a great way for Kansans to provide some concrete support for some concrete ideas to improve the vitality and quality of life in some innovative Kansas communities.

Islamic State threat too big to ignore Now that President Barack Obama has finally laid out a strategy to “degrade and destroy” the Islamic State, there are only two (very big) questions that matter: Is this strategy really necessary?

And can it succeed?

My answer to the first question is a firm “yes,” but to the second a very shaky “maybe.”

Yet I believe Obama has no option but to try.

Until the Islamic State in Syria beheaded two American journalists, the president himself didn’t believe the threat merited a comprehensive strategy. In January, he famously dismissed the Islamic State as the JV team of terrorism. Even after Islamic State fighters swept through Western Iraq, he downplayed the near-term threat.

Spring revolts revealed that the post-World War I order had become so rotted it was poised to collapse.

But Arab states lacked the capacity to build new political systems. Syria and Iraq have splintered; Egypt is an economic basket case held together by a repressive military; Libya no lontrubin@phillynews.com ger exists as a state; and Arab monarchs in Jordan Yet suddenly, Obama has and the Gulf are struggling recognized that the Islamic to maintain their hold.

coherent challenge to the Islamic State. Nor is the United Nations — paralyzed

by Russian and Chinese vetoes — in any position to step in.

Without U.S. leadership, training, and support, Mideast rulers won’t prevent the Islamic State from growing to the point where it threatens the entire region. It is vital to disrupt the group now.

Which brings us to the huge second question: Will Obama’s strategy work?

The most glaring gap in his plans is the prospect of finding the ground troops that can fight the Islamic State in Iraq or Syria, assisted by U.S. air strikes. No question, it would have been far easier to crush the jihadis in Syria two years ago by helping moderate rebels.

But by now most of those groups have been crushed between the Assad regime and the Islamic State.

Obama’s belated and still vague plans for the Defense Department to train a new “moderate” rebel force are too little, too late.

There are better prospects in Iraq, where the administration can count on Kurdish forces, to whom it should be rushing support directly. Less certain is whether the new Iraqi prime minister, Haider al-Abadi, can reverse the sectarian Shiite ways of his predecessor, Nouri al-Maliki, which alienated many Sunnis to the point where they helped the Islamic State take over western Iraq.

Al-Maliki reneged on

promises that were made to Sunni tribes when they fought al-Qaida with U.S. help in the past decade. Persuading them to take up the fight again will not be easy; it will require tough, skilled, and top-level U.S. diplomacy of a sort that has been sorely lacking over the past three years — when it probably could have prevented the Islamic State’s rise.

At this point, it’s possible there won’t be sufficient ground troops available in Iraq, let alone Syria, to roll the Islamic State back from its territorial gains in the near term. All the more reason for the United States to use airpower to prevent Islamic State expansion in Iraq and disrupt its command structures in Syria.

Despite the risks, and the long-term nature of the task, doing less is riskier still.

Until the Middle East emerges from its current disrepair, until Iraqis and Syrians can resolve their sectarian disputes or divide into separate states, the terrain will be fertile for the rise of the Islamic State and other radical movements. In the meantime, the United States cannot afford to stand by while the Islamic State trains militants from all over the world and develops a global network that threatens our homeland.

This is why Obama had to shift gears and finally turn his attention to the Middle East.

Scottish independence vote is epic Washington — Tucking into a dish of Scottish haggis is not a task for the fainthearted. There are various haggis recipes, but basically it is sheep’s pluck — the heart, lungs and liver — cooked together, then mixed with suet and oatmeal and boiled in a sheep’s stomach, then served, sometimes drenched with Scotch.

People who pour whisky on oatmeal are not shrinking violets. Remember this on Thursday when Scotland votes on independence from the United Kingdom.

There are economic reasons for and (mostly) against Scotland disassociating from the queen’s realm.

This issue, however, touches chords of memory more interesting than money.

In “The Long Shadow: The Legacies of the Great War in the Twentieth Century,” Cambridge University historian David Reynolds notes that World War I, a breaker of empires and maker of nations, quickened interest in nationalism and the nature of nationhood, especially the distinction between a civic nation and an ethnic nation: The former is “a community of laws, institutions, and citizenship,” whereas an ethnic nation is “a community of shared descent, rooted in language, ethnicity, and culture.”

France embodied civic nationalism, forged by its rev-

olution; Germany, “steeped in Romantic conceptions of the Volk,” exemplified ethnic nationalism.

The United States is a civic nation because it is a creedal nation — founded, as Jefferson said, on “truths” deemed “self-evident,” and dedicated, as Lincoln said, to a “proposition” (that all are created equal). Scotland is largely an ethnic nation, and whether Scots opt for or against independence, the continued vitality of their national sentiments testifies to the ability of differences to resist homogenization by the commercial and cultural forces of modernity.

Even after its parliament was dissolved in 1707, Reynolds writes, Scotland retained its separate educational and legal systems and an established Presbyterian church. Reynolds says that “to subsume conflicting ethnicities” and foster national unity among Britain’s components — the English (three-quarters of the U.K.’s 1910 population), Welsh, Irish and Scots — an ideol-

ogy of “Britishness” was cultivated by means such as the cult of Lord Nelson, and adoption of “God Save the King” as the national anthem.

But by the end of the 19th century, Reynolds says, there was a “backlash against Britishness.” In Scotland, the poet Robert Burns and the medieval warrior William Wallace became cult figures, and in May 1913 a Scottish home rule bill was introduced in the House of Commons. Then the war came.

And what Reynolds calls “the crisis of Britishness” receded. Scotland boomed (its coal, steel and shipbuilding) and bled: It had, Reynolds says, the U.K.’s “highest rate of army volunteering” — one in six British soldiers was a Scot — and “the highest death rate among those who enlisted.” The war that followed the war to end war kept Scottish nationalism tamped down. “Only from the late 1960s,” writes Reynolds, “when Germany was no longer a threat, did the English Other become a bogey again and Scottish and Welsh nationalism start to revive as serious political movements.”

The 19th was a century of national consolidations — in the United States, Italy, Germany and Belgium, which was invented from various odds and ends. The 20th century, however, brought the

breakup of empires — the British, Austro-Hungarian, Ottoman, Russian and then Soviet empires. The disintegrative impulse continues in, among other places, Spain, where Catalonians are asserting their particularities as Basques have long done.

Were Scotland now to become a sovereign nation, as it was until 1603, it would have a GDP ranking 16th among what would then be the 29 nations of the European Union (just behind Ireland and ahead of the Czech Republic) and would be the 20th-most populous. And the United Kingdom would have to redesign its flag, the Union Jack.

It is a composite of three crosses of the nations united under one sovereign — Scotland, Ireland (since 1921, Northern Ireland) and the united kingdoms of England and Wales. The cross of St. George, England’s patron saint, is a red cross on a white ground. The cross of St. Patrick, Ireland’s patron saint, is a diagonal red cross on a white ground. The cross of St. Andrew, Scotland’s patron saint, is a diagonal white cross on a blue ground.

Scotland’s Royal Arms banner, emblazoned with a lion rampant, flies over Balmoral Castle when the queen is not there. Which means it could be used even more after Thursday.

“

St. Louis (ap) — When he took over as police chief last year in the St. Louis suburb of Maryland Heights, it didn’t take Bill Carson long to see he had a serious diversity problem. Of the department’s 79 sworn officers, just one was black and one Hispanic.

Carson quickly issued a plan that included advertising in the local black newspaper, outreach to groups like the NAACP and participation in job fairs at area colleges with large minority student bodies.

Of 81 applicants in his first hiring round, only four were black or Hispanic — and the only one qualified chose to stay with the department where he was already working.

“I think the community feels better about their police department if the police department maybe reflects the makeup of the community,” says Carson, whose city is 10 percent black and 8 percent Hispanic. “But that’s easier said than done.”

The Aug. 9 shooting of unarmed Michael Brown Jr., 18, by a white officer in nearby Ferguson has focused attention on the lack of diversity in many police departments across the country. One often-cited

The community feels better about their police department if the police department maybe reflects the makeup of the community.”

— Bill Carson, suburban St. Louis police chief statistic: Ferguson is about two-thirds black, but only three of its 53 officers are African-American.

But authorities say the reasons behind such numbers are many and often nuanced — and, as Carson learned, the remedies are not always quick or selfevident.

Experts say many departments limit their searches too close to home, often don’t recruit in the right places and set criteria that can disproportionately exclude groups they hope to attract. And across the U.S., police are not just struggling to attract blacks and Hispanics, but members of immigrant groups where distrust and fear of authority run deep.

“If you were taught from the time that you could speak, from the time that you could understand speech, that police are to

be feared and that they’re part of an occupying force that is there to circumvent the democratic processes and to strip you of your rights, then it’s very difficult for that department to come into your neighborhood and tell you that they respect you and that you should join their team,” says Phillip Atiba Goff, co-founder and president of The Center for Policing Equity at the University of California, Los Angeles.

Ferguson Chief Tom Jackson says a few black officers left in recent years for higher-paying jobs, and that the city has tried to recruit more.

UCLA’s Goff says having a police force that mirrors the population is no “panacea.” Others agree.

Part of the problem is policing “has never been made attractive for people of color,” says Malik Aziz, chairman and executive director of the National Black Police Association.

In Ferguson, Chief Jackson met recently with Cedric Alexander, president of the National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives.

“He’s receptive and he wants to do what’s good and better for that department,” says Alexander, public safety director in DeKalb County, Ga.

BRIEFLY Crashed Navy pilot identified

The cause of the collision was under investigation.

Lemoore Calif. — A Navy fighter pilot presumed dead after two jets crashed in the far western Pacific Ocean has been identified.

The Navy said Sunday that the pilot was Lt. Nathan Poloski, a 26-year-old native of Lake Arrowhead.

He was the subject of a 36-hour search in the waters off the U.S. territory of Wake Island after two F/A-18C Hornets collided in midair Friday. The other pilot safely ejected, was rescued from the ocean by helicopter and was treated and released from medical facilities aboard the aircraft carrier Carl Vinson.

The pilots and their squadron were from Carrier Air Wing 17 based at Naval Air Station Lemoore in California’s San Joaquin Valley.

Poloski was a 2009 graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy.

Make or break?

Boot Camp ‘torture’ awaits

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Nick Krug/Journal-World Photo

KANSAS UNIVERSITY COACH CHARLIE WEIS WATCHES OVER WARM-UPS prior to the Jayhawks’ season opener against Southeast Missouri State in this photo from Sept. 6 at Memorial Stadium.

CMU game could seal Weis’ fate It’s beginning to feel as if Kansas University football coach Charlie Weis’ make-orbreak season has been downsized to a make-or-break game, at 2:30 p.m. Saturday against Central Michigan at Memorial Stadium.

The start to this season, Weis’ third of a five-year, $12.5 million contract — a bill absorbed mostly by the generosity of deep pockets belonging to some who might feel slighted that Weis never let them close enough for a view into his extremely tight circle — has been so flat as to move up the calendar on decision day regarding the coach’s job security.

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Athletic director Sheahon Zenger has an old-school approach to much of his job, and that includes having a distaste for firing coaches in mid-season and handing the reins to an interim head coach. Normally, such a move is too desperate and disruptive. But if Kansas

doesn’t defeat Central Michigan on Saturday, the question becomes one of which is less disruptive, moving an interim head coach into the swanky office or leaving in his chair the coach not reaching his athletes. It’s tough to make a case for the latter.

Weis didn’t need to inspire his players to victory against a rock-solid Duke squad loaded with experience and discipline, but it’s not too much to ask the coach to instill enough life into his players to have them run onto the field for the start of the second half. Instead, the Jayhawks

walked, showing all the urgency of that guy strolling through the church parking lot, dreading listening to the long-winded preacher.

Once the game resumed, the Jayhawks ran, although not very fast, and too often in futile pursuit of a Blue Devil.

Duke 41, Kansas 3 was preceded by Weis painting an optimistic picture that included him talking about the game being a favorable matchup for KU, which has won precisely 20 percent of its games since Mark Mangino was shoved out the door Please see KEEGAN, page 3B

Jayhawks aim to move past loss

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

It was billed throughout the offseason as a game that could make a huge impact on the psyche of Kansas University’s football players.

The hope now has to be that it doesn’t.

If what went down Saturday in Durham, North Carolina, sticks with them, the impact could be catastrophic and could send the Jayhawks

(1-1) spiraling toward another forgettable football season.

There have been plenty of losses during the past few seasons, but few had the same feel as the 41-3 drubbing the Jayhawks suffered at the hands of Duke on Saturday at Wallace Wade Stadium.

Even the coaches and players admit that this one could take a little longer than normal to get over. Not just because they were outscored by 38 points and managed just a

field goal on offense. And not just because many of these Jayhawks thought the matchup with Duke played right into their hands. But because very little went right on either side of the line of scrimmage, and many of the things that were believed to be fixed — or at least improved — again looked like serious problems.

“You say you’ll be better in 24 hours,” KU coach Charlie Weis said after the loss, the eighth of 34 points or more in

26 tries on his watch. “But it’ll probably take until after you get on the field on Tuesday and you’re moving forward with another gameplan, because that was embarrassing.”

Many of the Jayhawks appear already to have put the loss behind them.

“We just have to work hard and keep moving forward,” senior wide receiver Nick Harwell said. “No team Please see JAYHAWKS, page 3B

Keith Langford, who has a degree in journalism from Kansas University, crafted one creative sentence when asked to describe Bill Self’s basketball Boot Camp.

“It’s almost like being in a torture device from Jigsaw from one of the ‘Saw’ movies,” Langford said in an email to the Journal-World from Kazan, Russia, where he plays for BC Unics.

“I haven’t had to give birth, so there’s that,” 6-foot4 shooting guard Langford added jokingly, comparing Boot Camp with other physical tests he has endured in his life. “Seriously, it’s right up there.”

Langford, 30, who played at KU from 2002-05, participated in Self’s first two Boot Camps at KU after experiencing conditioning Roy Williams-style his first two seasons as a collegian.

Boot Camp, which for KU’s current players starts at 6 a.m. today in Allen Fieldhouse and runs for two weeks, consists of an hour’s worth of sprints, backboard touches, defensive drills and slides — all without use of a basketball.

“The thing I remember most is not knowing what you are about to go through,” Langford said of his first Boot Camp. “My first two years with Roy there was a timed schedule and you knew exactly what you were up against (in participating in a 12-minute run the first day of school and every ensuing day until passing a certain standard) and when you had to be ready for it.

“It would be tough physically, but mentally you could keep a cushion. With Boot Camp, anything goes,” Langford added.

Perhaps the toughest thing about Self’s Boot Camp is the time of day.

College students, the saying goes, are sometimes more comfortable going to sleep around 5 a.m. than awakening at that time.

“After getting up at 5 a.m. for two weeks straight, I had and have a different appreciation for the early-risers of the world,” Langford said. “Those wake-ups were painful. There are a couple other memories that stick out, but those are for us guys when we hang out and meet back up in Lawrence during the summers.”

KU’s current players acknowledge that the 5 a.m. wake-up call is daunting.

“Maybe a little bit,” junior Please see BOOT CAMP, page 3B

Chiefs’ late rally falls short ————

Ailing K.C. has chance to tie, but stumbles at Denver, 24-17

Joe Mahoney/AP Photo

QUARTERBACK ALEX SMITH (11) AND HIS CHIEFS TEAMMATES WALK OFF THE FIELD late in their 24-17 loss to the Broncos on Sunday in Denver.

Denver (ap) — The injury-plagued Kansas City Chiefs did everything they were supposed to do against Peyton Manning and his Broncos.

Well, except that one thing — score.

The Chiefs lost two more key starters and were still only two yards away from tying the game late in the fourth quarter.

Alex Smith’s pass with 15 seconds remaining was deflected at the line of scrim-

mage as the Denver Broncos held on for a 24-17 victory on Sunday.

“We’re not, by any means, in the business of moral victories, we don’t even think that way, but there was great effort there,” Chiefs coach Andy Reid said. “That can take you a long way. A game like this, we can learn from this.”

For a second straight week, the Chiefs were hit hard by injuries; they lost All-Pro running back Ja-

maal Charles on the opening drive and safety Eric Berry in the second quarter to sprained ankles. Both will have X-rays today.

Still, thanks to an offense that held the ball for more than 36 minutes, which kept Manning on the bench, they were on Denver’s doorstep with a chance to tie late in the game, despite being 121⁄2-point underdogs.

“We faced a great team, Please see CHIEFS, page 3B

The Associated Press

The Southeastern Conference’s dominant status had taken a hit since Nick Saban wrapped his hands around the football national championship trophy in 2013, following Alabama’s second straight title.

The conference had its run of seven straight national championships end when Florida State beat Auburn in January, and some thought that the Pac-12 had become the better top-tobottom league.

Well, look at those good ol’ boys now.

While the Pac-12 has become a jumbled mess outside of No. 2 Oregon, the SEC again appears to be the class of college football.

With South Carolina’s backon-the-map, 38-35 win over then-No. 6 Georgia on Saturday, the Gamecocks vaulted 10 spots in the Associated Press college football poll to No. 14. That gives the SEC seven teams in the top 15, the first time that’s happened since the AP poll started in 1936.

“We proved a point tonight,” South Carolina linebacker Skai Moore said.

He was talking about the Gamecocks, who were crushed

by Texas A&M just two weeks ago.

He could have been talking about the SEC, too.

Alabama, which crushed Southern Miss, remained at No. 3 in the poll behind topranked Florida State and Oregon. Auburn stayed at No. 5 behind Oklahoma after a bye and Texas A&M slid up to No. 6 with a rollover of Rice and Georgia’s loss.

LSU moved up two spots to No. 8 after cruising over Louisiana-Monroe and Mississippi climbed four spots to No. 10 after routing Louisiana, the first trip to the top-10 for the Rebels since being ranked fourth on Sept. 20, 2009.

Mississippi’s move up allowed the SEC to have five top10 teams for the second straight week despite Georgia dropping seven spots to No. 13. With Missouri coming in at No. 18, the SEC has eight teams ranked for the third straight week.

Yes, we know, it’s only three weeks into the season.

There’s still plenty of games to be played, plenty of chances for teams to slip back — or, perhaps, move up even more.

Pac-12 chaos Oregon has proven to be the class of the Pac-12 so far, looking like a legitimate playoff contender.

The rest of the conference has been scrambled.

UCLA is 3-0 and the next highest-ranked team from the Pac-12 at No. 13, but hasn’t exactly looked dominating.

Arizona State looked like it could repeat as Pac-12 South champs and moved up at spot to No. 15 after beating Colorado on Saturday, but quarterback Taylor Kelly spent the second half on crutches and linebacker Viliami Moeakiola, a defensive captain, injured his right arm.

Stanford, the two-time Pac12 champion, looks solid at No. 15, but did lose to Southern California, which plummeted eight spots in the poll to No. 17 after an inexplicable loss to Boston College.

Go ahead and try to figure this conference out.

Irish rising Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly doesn’t like some of the things his team is doing, particularly when it had a hard time pulling away from Purdue this weekend.

Despite the flaws, the Irish are 3-0 and back in a familiar place: the top-10.

KANSAS PLAYERS CELEBRATE JUNIOR FORWARD ASHLEY WILLIAMS’ GOAL during a 1-0 victory over UMKC on Sunday at the Jayhawk Soccer Complex.

Kansas soccer tops Roos, moves to 8-0 top-right corner of the Kangaroo penalty box.

Williams gained possession and dribbled to her left toward the top of the box. She left-footed a shot from 18 yards out that went just under the crossbar.

It was her third goal this season, second in two games and 13th of her career.

The Jayhawks outshot the visitors 27-3, including 14-0 in the opening half. The Jayhawks also put 12 of those shots on goal, their most in a game since 13 against Purdue on Sept. 1, 2013.

The Jayhawks’ 27 shots were also the most by a KU team since they tallied 29 shots against Arkansas at the beginning of the 2011 season.

Six Kansas players had

three shots or more, including junior Liana Salazar, who tallied a careerhigh six shots on the day.

Goalkeeper Kaitlyn Stroud helped the Jayhawks to their thirdstraight shutout and also notched a pair of saves.

Stroud has now amassed 229 saves during her KU career, which moved her up to third on Kansas’ alltime saves chart.

Kansas has kept its opponents scoreless for almost 280 minutes and has still yet to trail in a game this season, boasting 732 minutes of play without falling behind.

The Jayhawks will hit the road to face Marquette on Friday in Milwaukee. Match time is 7 p.m. at Valley Fields.

coordinator’s job is to put the pieces in the right places to leave the defense in unfavorable matchups. A college head coach’s job is to evaluate the right athletes to recruit and then develop them with college-style practices. On game day, the head coach’s most important job is to let intellect take a back seat to inspiration and put the players in the right emotional state to play out of their minds.

Thus far, Weis, a celebrated NFL offensive coordinator, has not shown strength in any of the areas necessary to squeeze victories out of an underdog football program.

If my hunch is right about the importance of Saturday’s game, and if enough boosters make it known they’re ready to pay what it takes, the players still can save their coach. We’ll see how hard they’re willing to play for their coach on the ropes. We’ll see how badly they want to win one for Charlie.

Kansas University soccer peppered UMKC with 22 shots before KU junior Ashley Williams lifted the 23rd past goalkeeper Nina Tzianos in the 82nd minute to give KU a 1-0 victory Sunday at the Jayhawk Soccer Complex and extend the Jayhawks’ record-setting start to the season.

Kansas moved to 8-0 and set the school record for longest unbeaten streak. UMKC fell to 3-32.

likes to lose like that, but we just gotta pick it up this week and move forward.”

Added senior cornerback Dexter McDonald: “All we can do is move forward and focus on next week’s game.”

That match-up is with Central Michigan, a team that popped Purdue a couple of weeks ago but was rocked, 40-3, by Syracuse around the same time the Jayhawks were helping Duke set school records.

Weis said after Saturday’s setback that the name, mascot, uniform and roster of KU’s opponent this weekend would rank second in importance to the Jayhawks

looking internally to fix the problems that led to them being outscored 6913 after starting the season off with a high-flying 24-0 first quarter against Southeast Missouri State in the Sept. 6 season opener.

“I’m obviously concerned with the passing game,” he said. “I’m obviously concerned with scoring more points. I’m obviously concerned with giving up big runs for touchdowns. I’m obviously concerned if we’re hitting on zone pressures and people are not getting to the right gap. But all those things are just elements.”

They’re elements of a big picture that started with promise and now looks and feels eerily similar to what so many players on this roster have been through several times before.

“It’s not OK to lose

KU favored The Jayhawks were tapped favorites for this week’s meeting with Central Michigan by Las Vegas oddsmakers.

forward Hunter Mickelson said, asked if he is dreading the opening of Boot Camp.

“Just because of the mental aspect of it, getting ready for it in your own head. After you get done with the first day, waking up at 5:30, 5 o’clock to get here at 6, I think after we get that done, we’ll be fine. After the first day, it’ll be fine.

We’ll just have to grind and get through it.”

Junior Perry Ellis said the most challenging part of Boot Camp is, “just being tired. You have to make sure you go to class right after, even though you are so tired. I would say it’s the hardest thing we do. It’s pretty intense.”

Former KU guard Tyrel Reed, who was cited as a Boot Camp star by Self during his four-year career, agreed.

“The most difficult part for me was the long days it caused,” Reed said. “Being up at 5:15, then working out for an hour or so, then doing player individuals, weights, pick-up, and then studies at night. Next thing you know, you’re going to bed to get up and do it again tomorrow. I always tried to tell myself that I could run forever, and it was just getting the right mind-set before going into the gym each morning.”

Now in his 12th year at Kansas, Self has held Boot Camp at all his stops, including Oral Roberts, Tulsa and Illinois.

Self’s goals for Boot Camp 2014?

“Same as always, get our guys in the best condition as possible,” Self said.

“Get them to be a little more responsible, tougher and rely on each other, become a closer team.

“You accomplish some toughness things together, some things we draw from every year in February, March. It gives us an air of toughness we can get through things, and it’s a great method of teaching defensive slides and things like that.”

KU’s newcomers hear horror stories about Boot Camp from former players who visit Lawrence during the summer.

Ellis, for one, has decided to not scare the freshmen.

“I mean, you don’t want to go tell them like that. We just want to tell ’em it’s tough, but we all did it,” Ellis said. “We’ve all done it before. You can do it, too.”

Of the attitude of the freshmen, Self said: “If they look at it as punishment, it’ll be hard for them. If they look at it as an opportunity to get in great shape and a team-bonding experience, they’ll end up being very proud of themselves after they complete it.”

Players do have a chance to catch their collective breaths Saturday and Sunday before gathering again for the final week.

“When you initially hear that it’s only two weeks and not on the weekend, we may have all gotten a false sense of security,” Langford said. “With Roy, conditioning and preparation was just ongoing through out the preseason. It sometime felt like it wouldn’t end. Little did we know ... ” Players will tell you the best thing about Boot Camp is when it does end — for good.

“It’s one of the best college days I’ve had, honestly, knowing I’d never have to do that again,” said New York Knicks center Cole Aldrich, whose last Boot Camp came his junior year in the 2009-10 preseason. “I walked out of that locker room, and I’m seeing these guys are passed out, dead tired, it’s 7 o’clock in the morning. They’re laying around, and I’m up, shirt off, running around the locker room saying, ‘I don’t have to do this (bleep) any more.’ I was so happy ... so happy.”

KANSAS CITY THIRD BASEMAN MIKE MOUSTAKAS GETS HUNG UP in a dugout suite as he chases a foul ball hit by Boston’s David Ortiz during the third inning of the Royals’ 8-4 loss to the Red Sox on Sunday in Kansas City, Missouri.

Nava slam sinks Royals Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — The Kansas City Royals have not been to the playoffs in 29 years and are skidding towards a 30th straight season.

Daniel Nava hit a grand slam, Xander Bogaerts added a three-run shot and the Boston Red Sox rallied past the Royals 8-4 on Sunday.

Kansas City blew a four-run lead and dropped three of four to the last-place Red Sox. The Royals fell 1 1/2 games behind Detroit, which beat Cleveland, in the AL Central. Kansas City is in the thick of the wild-card race. Red Sox manager John Farrell said there is no sympathy for the Royals’ late-season slump.

“It’s been a long time — everyone in the game knows it’s been a long time since they’ve been in the postseason,” Farrell said.

“They’ve got a good team.

But our season is not over.

We’re going to play to our capabilities and with the competitiveness that we expect out of our guys.”

Royals manager Ned Yost was asked if his club could afford to lose three of four to a last-place club that is 18-games below .500?

“No, no, no,” Yost succinctly answered and promptly ended his postgame media conference.

The Red Sox chased Jason Vargas (11-9) with one out in the sixth after Mookie Betts and Bogaerts singled. Reliever Aaron Crow walked Yoenis Cespedes to load the

stood in there,” said Knile Davis, who filled in for Charles and had two TDs. “We could’ve won it, should’ve won it.”

In this loss, Kansas City (0-2) may have just provided the rest of the league with a blueprint for the Broncos (2-0) — keep the ball out of Manning’s hands.

Although, that sort of goes without saying. But the Chiefs dominated time of possession (holding the ball for nearly 13 more minutes) and didn’t let No. 18 settle into his customary rhythm in the second half. Manning threw for just 51 yards after halftime.

The only trouble was Kansas City kept sputtering inside the red zone, going 1 for 3 in the second half.

The Chiefs’ final drive almost ended early — twice.

But Aqib Talib’s interception for a score was negated by Quanterus Smith jumping offsides.

Later, Nate Irving’s fumble recovery following DeMarcus Ware’s sack of Smith was ruled an incomplete pass after a review.

RG3-less Washington rips Jags STANDINGS

The Associated Press

Washington 41, Jaguars 10 Landover, Md. — Robert Griffin III dislocated his left ankle, and DeSean Jackson sprained his left shoulder in the first quarter, then Kirk Cousins stepped in. He completed 22 of 33 passes for 250 yards and a pair of touchdowns in Washington’s romp past Jacksonville.

Griffin was carted to the locker room with his leg in a splint and could be out for two months.

He will undergo X-rays to determine if the ankle is broken.

Cousins subbed for Griffin and completed his first 12 passes. Ryan Kerrigan had four of Washington’s 10 sacks, and Washington’s defense didn’t allow Jacksonville (0-2) past midfield until the final two minutes of the first half.

Chargers 30, Seahawks 21 San Diego — Antonio Gates had three touchdown catches, and the Chargers controlled the tempo to keep Seattle’s offense off the field.

Gates’ 21-yard catch late in the third quarter was epic, as the star tight end split two defenders and extended for Philip Rivers’ pass, reaching out with his left hand to gather it in. Flat on his back, he held up the ball to show the officials he made the catch that gave San Diego a 27-14.

Rivers was 28-of-37 for 284 yards.

WASHINGTON QUARTERBACK KIRK COUSINS RUNS OFF THE FIELD after a 41-10 victory over Jacksonville on Sunday in Landover, Maryland.

Browns 26, Saints 24 Cleveland — Billy Cundiff kicked a 29-yard field goal with three seconds left. Cundiff’s kick helped the Browns (1-1) snap a nine-game losing streak in home openers and gave rookie coach Mike Pettine his first NFL win.

Brian Hoyer drove the Browns 85 yards in 14 plays in the final 2:46 to set up Cundiff’s winner.

Hoyer completed several big passes, none more crucial than his 28-yarder to Andrew Hawkins with 13 seconds to go.

and grandchildren.

I am also aware that Howard has a drug addiction, and I hate it with a passion. We drink together, and it’s all a fun thing, but then he gets forgetful and confuses me with some of the other women he’s been with. I trust him, but I don’t know how to do things by degrees. All of my heart belongs to him.

Am I being selfish, or is this man so comfortable where he is that I come in second? —

Cast most exciting part of ‘Dancing’ Even if you don’t watch “Dancing With the Stars” (7 p.m., ABC), you can’t ignore the show’s casting. Like every season that preceded it, the 19th incarnation of “Dancing” presents a peculiar cross section of pop culture, ranging from ingenues to participants well into their dotage.

To put that in perspective, actor and comedian Tommy Chong, 76, has an AARP card that’s older than 18-year-old YouTube personality Bethany Mota! At 72, punk clothing designer Betsey Johnson is the second-oldest “star.”

Every season brings a middleaged talking head media-type not known for physical grace.

Remember Tucker Carlson and Kenny Mayne? This season, that slot has been filled by PBS host Tavis Smiley.

The emotional heart of “Dancing” belongs to the slightly over-the-hill star who the show’s not-exactly-youthful audience will champion.

This year, that Kirstie Alley/ John O’Hurley slot belongs to “Back to the Future” actress Lea Thompson. ‘‘Dancing” loves to include a figure from the so-called conservative side of the pop/political divide. Who can forget Bristol Palin and Tom Delay?

This season that peg belongs to Sadie Robertson, the granddaughter of “Duck Dynasty” controversialist Phil Robertson.

Other talent includes Alfonso Ribeiro (”Fresh Prince of BelAir”), Jonathan Bennett (”Mean Girls”) and Antonio Sabato Jr. (”General Hospital”).

There are no NFL stars this season, but sports are well represented by Olympian Lolo Jones, NASCAR driver Michael Waltrip and martial artist Randy Couture.

“Dancing With the Stars” is like many mediocre big-budget movies. Once you know the cast, actually watching it can be an anticlimactic.

Tonight’s other highlights O “American Ninja Warrior: USA vs. the World” (7 p.m., NBC) offers three hours of competition.

O Season five concludes with a winner on “MasterChef” (7 p.m., Fox).

O Pressing matters on “Under the Dome” (9 p.m., CBS).

BIRTHDAYS Actor Tommy Lee Jones is 68. Movie director Oliver Stone is 68. Football Hall-of-Famer Dan Marino is 53. Actor Tom Hardy is 37. Britain’s Prince Harry is 30. TV personality Heidi Montag is 28.

Need Your Opinion Dear Need: We were ready to overlook the fact that Howard still lives with his parents and doesn’t pay rent, but then we got to “drug addiction.” And he gets drunk and yells at you, not to mention he’s away from home for months at a time.

Please don’t go from the frying pan into the fire. Howard has been generous, but that doesn’t make him such a great catch. Please take some time to be on your own and learn to navigate life without a man’s help.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Monday, Sept. 15: This year you often send out mixed messages. Be aware of this tendency, as it could make others crazy. Listen carefully if someone gives you feedback. If you are single, get to know someone very well before making any commitments. If you are attached, your relationship benefits from weekend dates and vacations away.

Dear Annie: I met the man of my dreams at the workplace. At the time, I was in an abusive marriage and had given up all hope, and then I met “Howard.”

Here’s the problem: Howard is 45, still lives in his parents’ basement and works from home.

He doesn’t pay rent or utilities, although when he gets a paycheck, he gives his mother some money. On the other hand, my daughter and I have our own place. We make ends meet. Howard bought me a laptop for my birthday and a bedroom set for my apartment, has fixed my car and recently put new tires on it.

He has done so much for me, and I am grateful. But because he still lives with his parents, it limits what we can do.

He says he is obligated to his mother, daughter
