HEATHER BRANDENBURG, A KANSAS UNIVERSITY STUDENT FROM WISCONSIN, works out recently at Ambler Student Recreation Fitness Center, 1740 Watkins Center Drive. Brandenburg suffers from a bilateral hip dysplasia and rheumatoid arthritis. She was told by doctors she would never run again but has made a bold recovery and will be running in November’s Kansas Half Marathon, which is a fundraiser for Health Care Access.

Woman told she would never run again trains to conquer half marathon

By Giles Bruce Twitter: @GilesBruce

Just a few months ago, Heather Brandenburg was told she’d likely never be able to run again.

But the 21-year-old Kansas University student didn’t let that stop her. She pushed through the pain

and is now training to participate in the Kansas Half Marathon, which takes place in Lawrence this November.

“I finally took control of my own life,” the Minocqua, Wis., native said during a recent interview at Ambler Student Recreation Fitness Center, where she

Kansas University officials are hoping to tap into a rich vein of federal research funding: the U.S. Department of Defense.

“There’s a desire on our part, as is true with other universities, to find out more about what the Department of Defense is hoping to fund, and then trying to match up what they are hoping to fund with the research strengths of KU,” said Kevin Boatright, a spokesman for the KU Office of Research.

KU has received national security clearances allowing it to pursue classified contracts with all federal agencies in the U.S. government.

The so-called Facility Security Clearance opens the door to additional funding sources, such as DeKANSAS UNIVERSITY partment of Defense agencies, which will spend nearly $63 billion this year for research and development.

In the fiscal year that ended June 30, 2013, KU received nearly $6.5 million in research funding from Defense Department agencies. That represents about 2.5 percent of KU’s total research haul.

But Boatright said that total from defense could increase substantially in future years given the breadth of what DOD researches.

Already, KU researchers are working on more than 60 projects for Defense agencies that cover a wide range of interests, including advanced computing, biomedicine, ecological assessments, aerospace, archaeology, psychology, meteorology, biomaterials, linguistics and radar.

To get the word out about the wide variety of research opportunities available through the DOD, the KU Office of Research is holding a workshop from 1 to 2:30 p.m. Oct. 7.

SUNDAY CROSSWORD SOLUTION FOR SEPT. 28

L awrence J ournal -W orld

Anti-pipeline concert draws thousands in Nebraska Lincoln, Neb. (ap) — Roughly 8,000 people filled a northeast Nebraska farm Saturday to hear Willie Nelson and Neil Young perform at a concert organized by opponents of the proposed Keystone XL pipeline.

The Lincoln Journal Star reported politicians and activists spoke to the crowd on Art and Helen Tanderup’s farm about the pipeline project between performances.

Young said before the concert that he thinks it’s important for America to use more renewable energy, and he supports people who are trying to offer solutions.

“Stand up and be creative and have ingenuity and come up with solutions so we’re not just complaining about problems, we’re solving them,” Young said.

“That is what America needs to do.”

The proposed TransCanada Keystone XL pipeline needs presidential approval to proceed because it crosses the U.S.-Canada border. But that decision remains on hold while Nebraska’s Supreme Court considers whether the 2012

law used to approve the Keystone XL’s path across the state is valid.

Pipeline critics worry it could contribute to pollution and contaminate groundwater if there is a leak.

TransCanada says the pipeline, which it first proposed in 2008, would have advanced safety features to prevent and detect leaks. Supporters say the project would create construction jobs and bolster a friendly source of oil.

Further delays in the pipeline project will add to the volume of crude oil on railroads across the United States and Canada, said TransCanada spokesman Mark Cooper.

“Delaying the Keystone XL means encouraging the loss of good jobs for Nebraskans and more than $20 million a year in annual property taxes to counties for schools, roads and other infrastructure once the Keystone XL is at full capacity,” Cooper said.

The Keystone XL pipeline is designed to carry oil from Canada across Montana, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas. TransCanada also

has proposed connecting it to the Bakken oil field in Montana and North Dakota.

The southern leg of the pipeline between Oklahoma and Texas is already operational.

Organizers of the concert from Bold Nebraska and the Cowboy and Indian Alliance promise to keep up the pressure in the hope of persuading President Barack Obama to reject it.

“We are not just going to protest and leave,” said Oglala Lakota President Bryan Brewer.

“We’re going to stop it.”

After Young and Nelson performed for about an hour each, members of the audience marched into one of the Tanderups’ fields to form a human chain across the pipeline’s proposed path.

Sales of the $50 tickets for the concert generated about $385,000, but it cost roughly $100,000 to hold. Organizers didn’t have available Saturday an exact total of the proceeds — which will be split between Bold Nebraska, the Indigenous Environmental Network and the Cowboy and Indian Alliance.

she figured any joint pain she had was being caused by that condition.

But while playing soccer during her junior year of high school, the pain in her hips got so bad she cried after every practice.

She was diagnosed with bilateral hip dysplasia, a condition that causes both hip sockets to form improperly.

Brandenburg underwent surgery on her right hip, but that only made the problem worse. Eight months into her recovery, she couldn’t touch her toes or move her leg forward or backward. She eventually found another doctor, who, through two subsequent procedures, corrected the mistakes made in the first surgery and allowed her to have full range of motion in her right leg.

During a checkup in May, her surgeon told her that though she was recovering well, she likely would never be able to run again or work out for more than two days in a row.

“I’m 21 years old. I don’t want to spend the rest of my life being careful and not doing the things I want to do,” she recalls telling

— Heather Brandenburg, 21-year-old KU student participating in the Kansas Half Marathon & 5K

IF YOU GO The Kansas Half Marathon & 5K takes place Sunday, Nov. 2, from 7:30 to 11:30 a.m. at Watson Park, 727 Kentucky St. The 5K begins at 7:30 a.m., with the half marathon shortly after.

The event is a fundraiser for Health Care Access, a clinic that serves uninsured residents of Douglas County. To register or for more information, visit KansasHalfMarathon.com. herself. “In high school, I used to run to relieve stress. In the last three years since I haven’t been able to run, I’ve resorted to driving and wasting a lot of gas to relieve stress.”

So she focused on rebuilding her strength. She participated in a 60-day workout challenge over the summer and started running again in July. After making it up to eight consecutive miles, she decided to sign up for the

Kansas Half Marathon, a fundraiser for Lawrence safety-net clinic Health Care Access.

Her mom, Ellen Kramer, has been one of her biggest supporters, posting on Facebook: “My daughter ... was told she would live in constant pain and never be able to run again, a passion she was heartbroken at losing. She’s showing them all up by running her 1st half marathon in November! Go, baby girl! Love you so much!”

Brandenburg now runs about three days a week to prepare for the race. Her right hip has been free of pain; any discomfort she has experienced has been on the left side. She plans to break the news about the half marathon to her doctor — eventually.

“Since I was 11, when I was diagnosed with arthritis, every time I had pain I said, ‘OK, I’m going to stop.’ It was a reason to quit,” she said.

“Now, I think I’ll probably run my body into the ground before I give up again.”

2nd District debate covers range of issues

LHS honors notable alumni

By Peter Hancock Twitter: @pqhancock_ljw

Republican U.S. Rep. Lynn Jenkins portrayed herself Sunday as a bipartisan leader in Congress who can work across party lines.

Meanwhile, her Democratic challenger, Margie Wakefield, accused Jenkins of being a source of the partisan gridlock in Washington.

But perhaps the biggest surprise in the 2nd District congressional debate at Eudora Middle School was Libertarian candidate Christopher Clemmons, who drew applause from both Democrats and Republicans with a stinging attack against the high cost of higher education and student loans.

For nearly an hour, the three candidates answered questions on topics ranging from the Affordable Care Act, agriculture and the war on terror, as well as their basic philosophies on government. “Washington is gridlocked because people are refusing to sit down and have conversations,� Jenkins said in her opening remarks. “I have always remained open to the best ideas of others, regardless of their political party. Due to that approach, most of the legislation I have introduced this Congress has garnered bipartisan support.�

Later in the debate, though, Wakefield claimed that in Jenkins’ six years in Congress, she had only gotten eight bills out of committee and five bills passed by the House, none of which ever became law. “Certainly there’s a lot of blame to go around in Washington,� Wakefield said. “But she’s a leader of the gridlock and the obstruction in Congress, and she’s not taking one ounce of responsibility for it.�

When asked about agriculture policy, Jenkins touted her background growing up on a farm, milking goats and farrowing hogs. She also noted that she’s been endorsed by the Kansas Farm Bureau. “You don’t learn agriculture by a briefer or listening to the Democrats’ complaints,� Jenkins said. “How you learn agriculture is you live it, you breath it, and then you go out and fight for it.�

Wakefield shot back: “I don’t need to know how to slop pigs today in order to be able to advocate. That’s what we need in Washington.�

Wakefield criticized Jenkins for voting against the 2014 Farm Bill, saying that bill was important for farmers so they could make planting decisions for the future. Jenkins said she believed the bill was flawed because it didn’t address such issues as country-of-origin labeling or issues.

Both Jenkins and Wakefield said they support current military operations targeting the Islamic State terrorist group in Iraq and Syria. Jenkins, however, accused President Barack Obama of not having a comprehensive strategy to win the conflict, while Wakefield criticized Congress for being on vacation for re-election campaigns instead of working on the issue in Washington.

Clemmons said he believes the operations are unconstitutional.

The debate in the Eudora Middle School auditorium drew about 300 people, the vast majority of whom appeared to be Wakefield supporters. But it was Clemmons who drew the biggest applause from both Republicans and Democrats when he used his closing remarks to talk about an issue that hadn’t come up in the debate, the high cost of higher education. “I just paid $25,000 for my master’s,� said Clemmons, a science teacher in Kansas City. “That’s something I probably will never pay off in my lifetime on a teacher’s salary. And that is how hundreds and thousands of citizens in this country are going to live the rest of their lives, as wage slaves trying to pay off the debt that they took on to try to make a better future for themselves.�

Photo app wins first Lawrence Startup Weekend

By Cassidy Ritter Twitter: @LJWorld

A global movement helping entrepreneurs launch new businesses has gotten off to a good start in Lawrence.

The first Lawrence Startup Weekend concluded Sunday at the Lawrence Public Library, 707 Vermont St., two days after 15 participants pitched their ideas to kick off the event Friday. They then voted on the top ideas and formed five teams to create business models over the next 54 hours. “We saw a real need in the community to bring people interested in startups together and start building a community around this type of work,� said Beth McKeon, owner and publisher of Lawrence Kids Calendar, who co-founded the local Startup Weekend with Joe Jarvis.

Startup Weekend is a global movement helping entrepreneurs launch new businesses. In 2014, more than 1,800 Startup events have taken place in 120 countries around the world. “This event is critical to both entrepreneurs and our community,� said Brady Pollington, vice president of Economic Development Corporation of Lawrence & Douglas County. “It sends a signal to

“

This event is critical to both entrepreneurs and our community. It sends a signal to innovators and entrepreneurs that they have a real opportunity here in Lawrence.

This event, which we hope will be an annual event, could lead to the next great employer for our community.�

— Brady Pollington, vice president of Economic Development Corporation of Lawrence & Douglas County innovators and entrepreneurs that they have a real opportunity here in Lawrence.

This event, which we hope will be an annual event, could lead to the next great employer for our community.�

Saturday, each team met with a mentor to develop a business plan, design a prototype and build a marketing plan.

For Sunday’s finale, the teams had five minutes apiece to present their ideas to judges Michele Weigand, founder of Lawrence’s Focused Perspective; Suman

Saripalli, founder of KalScott Engineering; and Will Katz, regional director of Kansas University’s Small Business Development Center. Proposals ranged from apps to art.

In the end, judges chose PhotoNote, an app that allows photos to become individual notes on a calendar, as the overall event winner. The team — made up of six KU students: Megan Murphy, Nick Brade, Zak Wohlschlegel, Dalton Jones, Rhys Raglow and Anthony West; and one KU alumnus, Clay Westerlund — will receive free legal, accounting and printing services, as well as office space. “(The prizes) are designed to help the winning team move forward and give them a leg up as they start to look at the next step,� McKeon explained.

Murphy, a sophomore from Overland Park, said the task initially seemed impossible to complete in 54 hours, but ultimately the contest taught her that “it’s possible to turn an idea into something real.�

With monthly meetings and learning opportunities planned going forward, McKeon hopes Startup Weekend will become a recurring event in Lawrence. For more information, visit startuplawrence.org.

Discovery Furniture relocates, Burger King to reopen on 6th Lawrence is losing in the furniture battle, and I’m not just talking about my effort to get a recliner with a built-in beer cooler, bun warmers and a secret Doritos compartment in my living room.

No, the city’s largest furniture store has plans to close in early 2015.

The owners of Discovery Furniture have confirmed they’re closing their store at 2525 Iowa St. in January. Upon closing, they’ll open a mega furniture store in Olathe to complement the mega store they already operate in Topeka.

In case you haven’t caught on, mega is the trend in the furniture retail business, and Discovery’s store in the old Food-4-Less building on south Iowa Street just wasn’t mega enough.

“Our new location will be four or five times larger than what we have in Lawrence,” said Jeff Winter, an owner of the Discovery store.

The new store — called the Furniture Mall of Kansas, which is also the name of its store in Topeka — will be in the former Benchmark Home Furnishings building across the street from the Bass Pro Shop.

Discovery has operated its Lawrence store since 2010, and it was a big deal when it came to town. Lawrence’s furniture market began declining in the late 1990s, and then pretty much was decimated after Nebraska Furniture Mart opened its mega store near Kansas Speedway in Wyandotte County in 2003.

Winter said it was a tough decision to leave Lawrence because the store was doing fine from a sales standpoint. But he said the company determined it made greater strategic sense to operate large locations in both Topeka and the Kansas City markets, with

the hope that Lawrence shoppers will find it convenient to shop at one of those two locations.

Discovery has about 20 employees, and Winter said the company is offering incentives for those employees to make the move over to the new Olathe store.

If there is a positive in this news, it is that interest in the Discovery location at 25th and Iowa is high. In fact, a development group already has purchased the property from the Winter family. A group that includes Lawrence businesswoman Susan Hatfield finalized a deal in recent days to purchase the entire shopping center, which also includes the adjacent Office Depot and Tuesday Morning spaces. In addition to Hatfield, Christian Ablah, a noted commercial real estate broker who has been involved in bringing Dick’s Sporting Goods, Best Buy and Home Depot, to Lawrence also is part of the group.

Ablah told me the group doesn’t yet have a tenant for the approximately 45,000 square feet of space that Discovery occupied in the center. But Ablah said the development group was eager to purchase the property because south Iowa Street seems to be the destination of choice for many midsize to large national retailers. lll

After a fire in August 2013, the Burger King has been working to get its doors reopened to the public. accoutrements required for a proper trip to Burger King. The Burger King on Sixth Street is going to reopen. Really.

There have been a few false starts and false hopes when it comes to the reopening of the Burger King at 1107 W. Sixth St., which has been closed since August 2013 because of a fire on the roof. Burger King officials previously had told me they expected the store to open sometime in April.

But that date came and went, and I began to feel a tad silly arriving at the empty restaurant each morning in my crushed velvet bathrobe and scepter. And my son certainly was getting tired of wearing the jester’s outfit.

But Burger King officials now tell me they have everything they need to begin the project, and hiring for the store has begun. I’m more confident than I have been that the store is indeed on the path to reopening because City Hall officials have confirmed they’ve issued the project a building permit. Also, work

ExCEL Award winners announced Staff Reports

Two Kansas University seniors received the 24th annual Excellence in Community, Education and Leadership Awards during halftime of the KUTexas homecoming football game Saturday at Memorial Stadium.

The 2014 ExCEL award winners are Ellie Eastes of Pratt and Graham Naasz of Overland Park.

Eastes, who is majoring in applied behavioral science with a minor in sociology, is the daughter of William and Dee Dee Eastes of Pratt. She was an orientation coordinator and assistant for the Office of First-Year Experience and vice president of Best Buddies, a group dedicated to working with people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

She also has participated in Mortar Board, the University Honors Program and Omega Phi Alpha, the campus service sorority. She served as a site leader for Alternative Breaks.

Naasz, a biology major, is the son of Steven and Donna George Naasz of Overland Park. He is a member of the Student Endowment board and Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity.

He was selected to attend the LeaderShape campus conference, and he created an Easter egg hunt to benefit Douglas County Special Olympics.

The ExCEL Award provides an annual $500 award to two students. The winners will plan the Blueprints Leadership Conference next spring in conjunction with KU’s Student Involvement and Leadership Center.

The winners were selected from among

10 finalists on the basis of leadership, effective communication skills, involvement at KU and in the Lawrence community, academic scholarship and ability to work with a variety of students and organizations. The selection committee included representatives from Student Union Activities, the Board of Class Officers, the Student Involvement and Leadership Center and the homecoming steering committee.

The award was established in 1991 to recognize one male and one female student for achievement and to add student interest to annual homecoming festivities. To be eligible, applicants must be fulltime undergraduate students with an overall grade-point average of 3.0 or higher. Each finalist completed an application and participated in an interview.

crews appear to be at the site.

“We have the building permit, and we’re ready to start throwing hammers and stuff,” said Lance Zach, regional manager for Burger King.

Zach said he hopes to have the store reopened by the end of October.

I’m not sure I would write that date in stone just yet because there is a significant amount of remodeling that will be done at the site. Zach said the store will end up looking a lot more like the modern Burger King that is near Sixth and Wakarusa.

The inside also will have a more modern look, with a lot more emphasis on areas for people to use their wireless devices while they dine. lll

City officials also have confirmed they’ve issued a building permit for the Menards home improvement center near 31st and Iowa streets. I don’t have word from Menards officials about when the store may open, but they previously have said con-

struction should take nine to 10 months. Depending on how much the winter slows them down, I would say it is a good bet that the store will be open by the time the 2015 holiday shopping season rolls around.

It will be interesting to watch the project come out of the ground.

It also will be interesting to watch whether Menards’ neighbor, Home Depot, makes any effort to expand its store. As construction begins at Menards, it will become obvious how much bigger Menards will be than the Home Depot store.

According to documents filed at City Hall, Menards will have about 250,000 square feet of space under the roof. Home Depot has about 94,000 square feet. In addition, Menards will have an outdoor lumber yard that is about 150,000 square feet. If you remember, Home Depot wanted a larger store, but was unable to win approval from the City Commission in the early 2000s for the project.

Sensora Spa has opened at 930 Iowa St. in the Hillcrest Professional Building that includes a host of medical offices.

“We looked at a ton of places on the west side of town and elsewhere, but a lot of places were just too loud for a spa,” said Lara ThompsonCountess, an owner and esthetician at the spa.

Thompson-Countess said finding the right environment for the business was important. Sensora touts itself as one of the few locations in the area that is entirely a spa rather than a combination spa/hair stylist location.

“You won’t hear hairdryers here or smell the chemicals from nail treatments,” ThompsonCountess said. “People can feel instantly relaxed once they walk in the door. We want people to walk in here and leave the outside behind.”

The business employs six therapists, including three massage therapists and three estheticians, professionals who specialize in skin treatments and other such beauty techniques.

And boy, are there a lot of techniques. The spa offers six forms of massage, including the traditional Swedish massage, hot stone massage, and something called Hawaiian Lomi Lomi Massage.

The business also offers a host of hair-removal treatments, facials, body scrubs, customized lip treatments, and herbology treatments, where a therapist rubs citrus oil on your body and wraps you in a blanket of Chinese herbs.

Iowa Senate race closer than expected

EDITORIALS

Hot topic A new state school efficiency commission is looking at a variety of topics, but it looks like school consolidation won’t be one of them.

A

t least during election season, some topics are simply too hot for a state task force charged with identifying efficiency measures for Kansas public schools.

The K-12 Student Performance and Efficiency Commission was created by the Kansas Legislature at the end of the 2014 session as part of legislation that responded to the Kansas Supreme Court’s order to increase aid to poorer school districts in the state. Before the commission’s first meeting earlier this month, its chairman, Wichita businessman Sam Williams, sent some suggested draft proposals to the group. His proposals included reducing the number of work-related issues over which teachers can negotiate, possibly limiting school bond issues and considering incentives for school districts to merge or cooperate.

However, the item in Williams’ proposals that got the most attention was the idea of realigning “district geographical boundaries in order to facilitate administrative efficiencies.”

It’s no surprise that the idea of having the state adjust school district boundaries was quickly set aside by commission members.

Before the efficiency commission even had its first meeting, a group of Kansas Republicans called for John Vratil to be removed from the body because of statements he made about forced consolidation of schools in a 2011 newspaper interview. Any talk of school district consolidation is guaranteed to raise controversy in rural towns that are desperate to hang onto their schools — and for good reason. Losing schools has been a virtual death knell for many small Kansas towns.

Commission members talked about various budgeting procedures for school districts, discussed whether using the number of students who receive free or reduced-price lunches is the best way to allocate funds to poorer districts and looked at a proposal to change the traditional teacher salary schedule.

The group, which is scheduled to meet again on Oct. 23, also agreed to consider incentives for districts to combine or cooperate, but that other “c” word — consolidation — apparently won’t be on the agenda.

Whether or not a discussion of public school efficiencies in Kansas should include the possibility of school consolidation, it won’t happen in this commission — at least not before the November elections.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Sept. 29, 1914: “The city commissioners this morning in their regular meetyears ing instructed Commissioner ago Cleland to buy about 20 cord of IN 1914 rock to be used at the city jail as a good hard subject for the prisoners to work on. Some of the rocked streets of Lawrence are in need of repair and it was thought that this would be one of the best methods to get the necessary rock in shape to repair these streets.”

Urbandale, Iowa — The Machine Shed restaurant, where the waitresses wear bib overalls and suggest a cinnamon roll the size of a loaf of bread as a breakfast appetizer, sells a root beer called Dang!, bandages made to look like bacon strips and signs that proclaim “I love you more than bacon.” For Joni Ernst, however, the apposite sign reads “No one ever injured their eyesight by looking on the bright side.”

She, nourished by a cinnamon roll, is preparing for a bus tour taking her Senate candidacy to all of Iowa’s 99 counties, and she seems to love campaigning even more than bacon, not that any proper Iowa farm girl — her description of herself — would publicly rank bacon second to anything. Ernst, a 44-year-old state senator, or Bruce Braley, a 56-year-old four-term Democratic congressman, will replace Sen. Tom Harkin, who is retiring after five terms.

Of the five Senate contests in purple states — Iowa, Virginia, North Carolina, New Hampshire, Colorado — this is currently the closest: The Real Clear Politics average of polls shows a tie (Ernst ahead by 0.2 percentage points).

Which should make Republicans anxious as they try to take control of the Senate and as they contemplate the 2016 presidential landscape.

Although Iowa has voted Democratic in six of the last seven presidential elections, the Ernst-Braley contest

“

Braley, a past president of an Iowa trial lawyers association, is as awkward as Ernst is ebullient when campaigning.” should not be this close.

Only 38 percent of Iowans approve of Barack Obama’s performance. Braley, a past president of an Iowa trial lawyers association, is as awkward as Ernst is ebullient when campaigning.

And the Democratic Party’s single idea — the trope that Republicans live to wage a “war on women” — leaves Ernst bemused: “I am a woman and I have been to war and this is not war.” A 5-foot-2 grandmother, she is a National Guard lieutenant colonel who served in Iraq.

Although outspent by her chief opponent 10-to-1 in the first quarter of this year, she won a five-candidate primary with 54 percent of the vote, propelled by an ad in which she said that having grown up castrating pigs, she would

be able to cut Washington spending. She does, however, genuflect at the altar of Iowa’s established religion, the Church of Ethanol, a federally mandated Iowa sacrament made from corn.

The Ernst of the primary season talked about the Harley in her driveway, the pistol in her purse, and the possibility of impeaching the president. Today her less exotic persona talks about the feeble economy, the perils of Obamacare, and Braley’s record, including his pride in having given in the House the culminating argument for Obamacare, which he still thinks is splendid.

Then there is his interesting path to his current position on the Keystone XL pipeline, which he favored before he opposed it. In 2012 he voted for construction, and for removing the requirement that the president approve construction. He now opposes Keystone, which makes his position conveniently congruent with that of Tom Steyer, the billionaire who is dispersing millions of dollars to support candidates who share his opposition to Keystone. Steyer’s NextGen Climate super PAC has spent $2.6 million attacking Ernst.

Politics is an inherently transactional business, but Braley’s fretting about money in politics — he is operatically indignant about the Koch brothers — is notably selective.

So far, Ernst’s campaign and independent groups advocat-

ing on her behalf have spent about $2 million less on ads than Braley’s campaign and supporting groups have spent.

Gov. Terry Branstad, a Republican who served four terms 1983-1999, is now in his fifth and has a doubledigit lead in his quest for a sixth, and is already the longest-serving governor since colonial times. His coattails should help Ernst in the voting, which began last Thursday. Ernst is also warmly supported by Iowa’s six-term Sen. Charles Grassley, who would be chairman of the Judiciary Committee in a Republicancontrolled Senate. Braley, speaking at a fundraiser to other trial lawyers in Texas, and evidently forgetting that nowadays cellphones are also video cameras, was recorded lamenting that Republican control could put Judiciary’s gavel in the hands of “a farmer from Iowa who never went to law school.” And Braley, this year’s leader in unfortunate ad libs, probably should not have shared with voters the misery he experienced last autumn when, because of the government shutdown, there were no fresh towels in the House gym.

Iowa is one of two states — hello, Mississippi — that have never elected a woman to a federal office or governorship. In other circumstances, might Braley consider this, too, evidence of a war on women?

Neglected needs

Baseball still America’s pastime

By Gene A. Budig

Major League Baseball posted its 11th consecutive year of record industry revenues with an all-time high exceeding $8 billion in 2013.

And now some within the game believe that MLB will reach $10 billion in 2014.

Truly amazing for a sport that some regard as archaic and no longer America’s pastime.

In truth, MLB’s attendance this year will surpass the combined totals of the National Hockey League, the National Basketball League and the National Football League. And that has been true for a number of years.

In the 2013 season, the regular season attendance was 74,028,227, and the postseason attendance was 1,681,954.

Some foresee close to 78 million in 2014. And when you include record attendance figures from Minor League Baseball for 2014, more than 42 million fans, the total for the professional game easily surpasses 120 million fans.

Minor Leagues teams do draw ever-increasing numbers of youngsters, parents and senior citizens. They are hot tickets in the communities where the game must be grown and at a reasonable cost. They fuel widespread interest.

Baseball at the major and minor league levels must be vigilant and face the competition head on. These leagues

have clear advantages of numbers and of history. To its credit, MLB has provided competitive balance, with nine of the last World Series champions coming from different clubs.

But Major League Baseball must deliver when it comes to adding greater on- Budig field diversity, acknowledging that only 8 percent of African-Americans now play the game at the highest level. It must be remembered that it was Jackie Robinson who broke the color barrier and set the standard for organized sports.

There is an On-Field Diversity Task Force in Major League Baseball at work, but it is time for fresh ideas, specific plans, and tangible results. It will be costly to owners, but unavoidable if the game is to continue to thrive.

MLB has made worthy gains with strong support of the Reviving Baseball in Inner Cities program and the MLB Urban Youth Activities, but there is a shortage of active scouts and experienced coaches in the dense African-American population centers. Talented African-American athletes have chosen to pursue other sports over baseball because, in part, there are

significantly more college scholarships in sports like football and basketball.

Two hundred twenty-four players on 2014 Opening Day rosters were born outside the U.S. They represented l6 countries: the Dominican Republic, Venezuela, Cuba, Puerto Rico, Canada, Japan, Mexico, Curacao, Columbia, Panama, Nicaragua, Australia, South Korea, Taiwan, Aruba and Brazil.

There is reason for growing but guarded optimism.

Another explosive challenge for baseball in 2015 is the pace, length of game. It is too long today, and fans are growing restless and angry that their complaints have not been acted upon in a timely manner. More and more paying customers are leaving early at major and minor league parks, costing needed profits.

Television and cable networks contend that something must be done and soon. MLB has a variety of experts at work, and there is a sense of urgency.

The game has much to offer fans of all ages but it cannot be taken for granted.

After all, it is still America’s pastime, and its legacy needs to be protected for the generations.

— Gene Budig is past president of Major League Baseball’s American League and former chancellor/president of three major state universities, including Kansas University.

To the editor: In March 2011, the Lawrence Police Department provided the city a “top down review” of priorities, goals, and objectives — it’s available on the department’s website, so see for yourself. The general sense I got when I read it is how behind our department was on having its needs met, from personnel to equipment to radio and computer systems to, of course, facility needs.

Keep in mind that the city has been aware of the need for a police facility since 1993. By 1999 the cost for a new facility was estimated at $10 million. Instead of investing in a new facility, the city spent $2.25 million on an existing office building.

With an inadequate renovation budget and no additional funds allocated since then, the current situation was foreseeably inevitable.

Due to the “patchwork” of poor and dysfunctional facilities, outdated computer systems, lack of modern equipment and additional personnel needs, some of the statistics should not be surprising. What is surprising is that we let it get to this point.

Perhaps we took our fine officers for granted. They are always there for us and without complaint; that’s called honorable service. As a community, when we don’t hear or see a problem, we assume there isn’t one.

This discussion has been going on for almost four years now. There have been numerous commission meetings and study sessions in regard to police needs.

It’s much past time that we addressed the critical facility needs of our department.

— Cecily Liu, protester avoid causing trouble.

After spending hours holding protesters at bay, police lobbed canisters of tear gas into the crowd on Sunday evening. The searing fumes sent demonstrators fleeing, though many came right back to continue their protest.

The government said 26 people were taken to hospitals; some were carried away on stretchers.

Some protesters pulled back, fearing police might move more aggressively to end the protests, which began with sit-ins over a week earlier by students calling for Beijing to grant genuine democrat-

ic reforms to the former British colony.

“It was very cruel for the police to use such harsh violence on protesters who had been completely peaceful,” said demonstrator Cecily Lui, a 30-year-old clerk.

Hong Kong’s residents have long felt their city stood apart from mainland China thanks to its guaranteed civil liberties and separate legal and financial systems. Recent moves

by Beijing to tighten its grip on the territory have brought on the most vehement protests since China took control of Hong Kong from the British in 1997.

Mount Ontake erupted shortly before noon at perhaps the worst possible time, with at least 250 people taking advantage of a beautiful fall Saturday to go for a hike. Hundreds were initially trapped on the slopes, though most made their way down by Saturday night.

Gunmen wound 15 at Miami nightclub Miami — A party at a Miami nightclub turned chaotic after gunmen opened fire, wounding at least 15 people.

Witnesses said they heard dozens of rounds rip through a storefront Miami nightclub called The Spot, wedged between a furniture store and a smoke shop.

Some victims made it to the hospital themselves, others needed help from fellow partygoers. Still others were taken to a hospital by Miami paramedics.

One person, a 15-year-old boy, remained in critical but stable condition Sunday night. Most of the other wounds are not life-threatening and some of the injured have been released.

Police say they aren’t sure of the caliber of the weapon, the number of shooters or exactly what triggered the violence. One officer said he suspected the shooting was part of an ongoing feud.

Hong Kong (ap) — Hong Kong police blasted pro-democracy protesters with tear gas and used vans with flashing lights in renewed efforts overnight to force demonstrators from streets near the government headquarters, as the city’s top leader this morning urged them to go home.

Hong Kong’s top leader, Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying, reassured the public that rumors the Chinese army might intervene were untrue.

“I hope the public will keep calm. Don’t be misled by the rumors,” said the Beijing-backed Leung, who is deeply unpopular.

As sit-ins spread to other areas of Hong Kong in the strongest challenge yet to Beijing’s decision to limit democratic reforms for the semi-autonomous city, Leung urged everyone to go home and

KU FOOTBALL

Now what?

CHARLIE WEIS WALKS OFF THE FIELD AS THE JAYHAWKS WARM UP prior to kickoff against Texas on Saturday at Memorial Stadium. A day after KU’s 23-0 loss to the Longhorns, Weis was let go as the Jayhawks’ head coach.

Weis dismissed as Kansas coach

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

When he hired him in December of 2011, Kansas University athletic director Sheahon Zenger called newly named Kansas University football coach Charlie Weis “the right coach at the right time to help Kansas raise the bar and compete in the Big 12.”

Sunday morning, Zenger admitted he was wrong.

The Journal-World was the first to report that Weis was dismissed as KU’s head coach just after 7 a.m. Sunday, 28 games into his tenure.

The four-time Super Bowl-winning assistant

Bowen brings needed passion

coach became the second KU coach in the past four years to be fired before reaching the end of his original contract, which he signed in 2011 for five seasons at $2.5 million per year.

As outlined in the agreement, Weis will receive full compensation, which likely will be paid out over the length of the contract.

After limping to a 6-22 record that at times rivaled the futility of the failed twoyear Turner Gill era he was asked to move the program away from, Weis was done in by his inability to establish consistent progress, CLINT BOWEN, THE JAYHAWKS’ DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR, WILL SERVE as interim head Please see WEIS, page 3B coach for the final eight games this season.

Trying to win football games in the Big 12 with neither a quarterback ready for the task nor an offensive line equipped to protect him equates to bringing an official Red Ryder, carbine action, 200-shot range-model rifle to a dusty Dodge City duel in Wild, Wild West times.

Yet, having a poor shot is better than no shot at all, and Clint Bowen has a shot at winning his dream job, minus the interim tag. His eightgame job interview begins Saturday in Morgantown, West Virginia, where as is almost always the case in Big 12 play, KU will come in as a double-digit underdog.

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Bowen earned this opportunity by doing more than playing for KU, graduating from the school and working as an assistant at it for four head coaches (Glen Mason, Terry Allen, Mark Mangino and Charlie Weis).

Royals win finale, prepare for playoffs(!)

Chicago (ap) — Moments after Detroit secured the AL Central title, Kansas City manager Ned Yost started pulling some of his regulars from the lineup.

It was finally time to start preparing for the playoffs.

Kansas City’s chance for

a division crown was erased

by Detroit’s victory on Sunday, and the Royals went on to a 6-4 comeback victory over Chicago in the final game for retiring White Sox captain Paul Konerko.

Coming into the final day of the regular season,

Kansas City was hoping for a one-game playoff today in Detroit for the division crown. But the Tigers clinched with a 3-0 victory over the Twins, sending the Royals to the wild-card game on Tuesday night against Oakland in their

first postseason appearance since winning Game 7 of the 1985 World Series.

“There’s been teams that have won the World Series from the wild-card game, and they know that,” Yost said. “So they’re excited to start the process.

CB Shepherd: Uncertainty unsettling

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

Anyone who thinks that the uncertainty surrounding former Kansas University football coach Charlie Weis’ future with the program had no impact on the players during the past couple of weeks would be wise to pay attention to the recent actions of senior cornerback JaCorey Shepherd.

On Sept. 19, shortly after the Jayhawks’ final walk-through one day before they took on Central Michigan at home,

the normally soft-spoken Shepherd asked a KU staff member for permission to call a players-only meeting that he hoped would tighten up the team’s focus.

“It was just me basically saying we’ve gotta play for ourselves,” Shepherd told the Journal-World on Saturday night, shortly after KU’s 23-0 loss to Texas and less than 24 hours before Weis was relieved of his post as the Jayhawks’ head coach. “We can’t worry about what’s going on on the outside, and we can’t let that dic-

tate our play. You can’t let what’s going on with the head-coach situation affect you, especially when you’re out there playing.”

Shepherd said he was the only one to talk at the short meeting and added that his Shepherd t e a m mates seemed to respond well to the message, which included a clear indication by Shepherd of what his final 10 games

Weis

as a Jayhawk would be about.

“Me, personally, I’m playing for y’all, my brothers,” he told them.

“I’m playing for my family, and I’m playing for this university.”

Shepherd said different groups of players within the KU locker room handled the ongoing speculation about Weis’ future in different ways. Some were supportive of Weis. Others had mixed feelings.

And still more operated in the manner that they did not have to like their head coach, but they

were going to respect him. Regardless of which players felt which way, Shepherd said the meeting was important to remind everyone why they were at Kansas.

“We’re playing a game, and we all have dreams of playing on the next level or are playing football for an education,” he said.

“So why should it matter what’s going on with the head coach?”

Backed by some of the most emotion they’ve shown so far this season, the Jayhawks defeated Central Michigan, 2410, on the strength of a

strong fourth quarter, their best since the opening quarter of the season opener. Shepherd said the outcome brought him and his teammates a lot of pride but added that it remained tough for some to focus.

“It’s hard, man,” he said. “It’s hard.”

Asked how he thought his teammates would respond to a change in leadership during the season, Shepherd sounded upbeat.

“Hopefully we’ll respond in a positive way,” he said. “That’s really all we can do.”

THAT’S NOT ALL

BRIEFLY Kansas soccer blanks TCU Fort Worth, Texas — Kansas University scored twice in the first 14 minutes, then held on for a 2-0 Big 12 soccer victory over Texas Christian on Sunday.

Senior Jamie Fletcher collected her second goal of the year in the eighth minute, and freshman Kayla Morrison netted her first career goal off a corner kick in the 13th minute.

“I thought the kids executed the game plan really well today but you have to give TCU credit.

They didn’t quit the whole game,” KU coach Mark Francis said. “Any time you win on the road, you have to be happy and today we’re fortunate to get our second win this weekend and head home next week with some momentum.”

KU outshot TCU, 15-11, and put seven shots on goal. Kaitlyn Stroud

earned the shutout in goal, the 12th of her career.

Kansas (11-1) will host Oklahoma State at its onagain, off-again new home, Rock Chalk Park, at 7 p.m.

Friday.

BASKETBALL NOTEBOOK

For Graham, Boot Camp brutal

“The Program wasn’t

tiring, but the things they had us doing were difficult and mentally tough,” point guard Graham said of carrying logs, sandbags and teammates during drills and also performing drills in Robinson Pool.

“They definitely challenged me as a point guard — me and Frank (Mason), definitely. They kind of picked on us a little bit.

We don’t talk as loud or be as vocal as we should be as point Graham guard.

They brought it out of us.”

Graham on Friday was deemed the unofficial Program MVP. A Marine presented him a T-shirt with The Program logo on it — a Spartan shield with the Greek letter lambda in-

side. Lambda was used as a shield pattern by the Spartan Army.

“Anybody could have gotten it. We all did it,” Graham said. “It was who he (Marine) felt stood out as being a leader, being vocal.”

T-Rob ready: Former KU forward Thomas Robinson of the Portland Trail Blazers is ready for today’s start of training camp. Robinson suffered a torn ligament in his right thumb on July 15 in the Las Vegas Summer League.

“Training camp is not even a question. I’m fine.

This (protective shield) will probably be off within the next week, so I’ll be fine before training camp,” Robinson told nba.com on Sept. 12. “I’m doing everything. I can do

anything now. I’ve been back for like two weeks now doing everything here, so it’s cool now. Just ready to play, that’s all.” l

Embiid recovering: Former KU center Joel Embiid still has his surgically repaired foot in a boot as the Philadelphia 76ers gear for opening of training camp today. Embiid, who needed summertime surgery to repair a fracture, was selected No. 3 in the 2014 NBA Draft.

“Everything is progressing fantastically,” Philly coach Brett Brown told csnphilly.com. “The bone is healing. Like with Nerlens (Noel, top 2013 draft pick who sat out last season), we are identifying chefs to help him eat. Identifying dietary concerns and making sure whatever is going into him is educated. He is fine. But I have to help him with diet, weight lifting, and hydration.”

Royals

Patriots, Chiefs battle of trenches

BOX SCORE

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

Kansas City (89-73) will send James Shields to the mound against Oakland left-hander Jon Lester when it hosts the first game of the 2014 playoffs. The Royals went 5-2 against the Athletics this year, but both of their losses came against Lester.

“I’m glad we can kind of put the regular season behind us, start this new journey right now,” first baseman Eric Hosmer said. “It’s going to be a fun experience.”

Konerko started at first base and played five innings on the final day of his 18-year big league career. The slugger, who paid tribute to his wife and three children by writing their names in the infield dirt behind the bag, went 0 for 3 with two strikeouts.

Konerko went out to first before Kansas City batted in the sixth inning, and then was replaced by Andy Wilkins. Konerko waved his hat toward the visiting dugout, where the Royals were standing and applauding along the top step, and then waved to the standing crowd of 32,266, once again hearing chants of “Paulie!

Paulie!”

The 38-year-old disappeared into the dugout for a brief moment and then popped back out for a curtain call. He waved to the crowd again and acknowledged the sustained cheers with a bow before retreating back into the dugout, where he received more hugs and congratulations from his teammates.

Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — It doesn’t seem to matter much to Chiefs coach Andy Reid whether it’s Jamaal Charles or Knile Davis in the backfield. Or Cyrus Gray, for that matter.

After building a reputation as a guru of the West Coast offense, and with a particular affinity for chucking the ball all over the field, Reid seems to have harkened back to yesteryear in building everything around the run.

The Chiefs piled up nearly 200 yards on the ground in last week’s win in Mi- MNF ami, even Who: Pat h o u g h triots at Charles — Chiefs their most electrifying When: 7 playmaker tonight — was out Where: due to an Kansas City, ankle in- Mo. jury.

TV: ESPN T h a t (WOW! chs. sets up an 33, 233) intriguing battle in the trenches tonight, when the Chiefs (1-2) get a visit from the New England Patriots (2-1) and one of the NFL’s vastly improved run defenses.

Two weeks ago, the Patriots held the Adrian Peterson-less Vikings to just 54 yards rushing. In last week’s victory over Oakland, Darren McFadden and Co. managed 67 yards on the ground.

All told, they’re allowing just over 100 yards

rushing per game. That’s quite an improvement on last season, when the Patriots were among the worst in the NFL at stopping the run. And considering the Patriots also have the NFL’s best pass defense, it makes for a stout unit as a whole.

“They’re extremely physical up front. Extremely physical,” Chiefs quarterback Alex Smith said.

“They’re a talented group, and physical up front, and they throw a lot at you scheme-wise, a lot of fronts, a lot of different defenses.”

The Chiefs figure to present plenty of problems in their own right. For one thing, the Patriots may not be certain who will be carrying the ball until shortly before kickoff.

Charles was practicing this week, just as he did last week, and Reid sounded hopeful that he would be available.

If not, the quick, elusive playmaker will again be spelled by Davis, a bruising power-runner who had a career-best 132 yards rushing last week against the Dolphins.

“They’re different skill sets, but they do the same things with them,” Patriots coach Bill Belichick said, “so the same plays look different, depending on who is carrying the ball.”

The Chiefs could also use Gray, another running back from their deep stable, though Joe McKnight is no longer in the picture. He ruptured his Achilles tendon in practice last week.

BRIEFLY Europe caps Ryder rout

Mickelson rips Watson

Gleneagles, Scotland — Europe added

Gleneagles, Scotland — U.S. captain Tom Watson suffered a pair of defeats Sunday in the Ryder Cup — first from the Europeans, and then from Phil Mickelson.

In a subtle dig at Watson’s leadership style, Mickelson said the Americans have strayed from the formula that Paul Azinger brought to the 2008 team at Valhalla, the only time since 1999 the Americans have won the Ryder Cup. “We all do the best that we can and we’re all trying our hardest,” Mickelson said. “And I’m just looking back at what gave us the most success. Because we use that same process in the Presidents Cup and we do really well. Unfortunately, we have strayed from a winning formula in 2008 for the last three Ryder Cups, and we need to consider maybe getting back to that formula that helped us play our best.”

another chapter of Ryder Cup dominance on Sunday behind Rory McIlroy, two big rallies and a rookie who hit the shot of his life to give this week a finish it deserved.

Jamie Donaldson, unaware he already had done enough to retain the Ryder Cup, hit a 9-iron that settled three feet from the cup on the 15th hole.

Keegan Bradley walked onto the green, saw Donaldson’s ball next to the hole, removed his cap and conceded the birdie.

And the celebration was on.

Europe won the Ryder Cup for the third straight time and the eighth time in the last 10 tries.

“It came down to me to close it out, but it’s all about the team,” Donaldson said. “Everyone played their heart out to retain the Ryder Cup. And that’s what it’s all about.”

McIlroy, Graeme McDowell and Justin Rose made sure the Americans would not get their redemption from the meltdown at Medinah two years ago as the first team to blow a four-point lead at home.

McIlroy was 6-under par on his first six holes and trounced Rickie Fowler to set the tone. The Americans put plenty of red on the board early, just not for long. McDowell was 3-down after five holes and Rose was four behind after six holes. McDowell rallied to beat Jordan Spieth, while Rose earned a halve against Hunter Mahan.

Gordon wins at Dover Dover, Del. — Jeff Gordon won the third race in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship for an automatic spot in the 12-driver field that advanced to the next round.

Gordon was in control in the closing laps Sunday at Dover International Speedway and joined Brad Keselowski and Joey Logano as the drivers who were guaranteed a berth in the next round with victories.

Kurt Busch, AJ Allmendinger, Greg Biffle and Aric Almirola were eliminated from contention.

L awrence J ournal -W orld

Give husband time to adjust to multiple moves Dear Annie: I recently married a man who has never been married before, although he lived with a woman for 15 years. They never had children, and “Vic” cheated on her for years. He paid for everything, and she had a free ride. He essentially paid her off to leave.

I have three grown children from a previous marriage. After our wedding two months ago, we planned on moving into my house until I can sell it. Vic’s house is in a scary neighborhood. It has a defect and won’t sell for what he owes the bank. I arranged for reliable renters, but four days before they were to move in, Vic backed out of the deal. He said he needed more time and didn’t want to resent me for making him move and then move again once my house sells.

Annie’s Mailbox

Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell

anniesmailbox@comcast.net

Vic promised to move out of his place on August 1, but didn’t, so I’ve been living there in order to be with him.

We both agreed to get a new place when my house sells, and he promised this arrangement would be temporary. I really hate his rundown neighborhood, and worse, his ex lives two blocks away.

Vic treats me well, but I worry that he’ll never move out of his place. I am fantasiz-

‘Big Bang Theory’ one for the ages Hey, we were wrong. For years, the prevailing wisdom held that no network show — never mind a mere sitcom — would ever have the kind of audience that “Friends” and “Seinfeld” used to reach some two decades back. There were simply too many new channels, new choices and distractions, from Netflix to social media.

Last week “The Big Bang Theory” (7 p.m., CBS) moved to a new night and was watched by more than 18 million people, an astounding number in today’s media environment, and impressive by any standards, in any era. In fact, two episodes of “Bang” reached that total. ‘‘Bang” is also an old-fashioned three-camera sitcom, the kind that were supposed to wither away after the advent of “The Office” and “Modern Family.” How old-fashioned? I’ve often thought that the inclusion of characters named Sheldon (Jim Parsons) and Leonard (Johnny Galecki) is a tip of the hat to Sheldon Leonard, the producer of such classics as “Make Room for Daddy,” ‘‘The Andy Griffith Show” and “The Dick Van Dyke Show.” He also played Nick in “It’s a Wonderful Life.” But I digress.

Some have argued that “Bang” appeals to the underserved audience of people who like its silly celebration of the brainy and scientific and its arcane references that delight the informed, send others to their old textbooks and sail over the heads of still more.

Besides being cerebral, its cast is less than physically imposing. And that may be part of the appeal.

Tonight’s other highlights

Christy’s spending irks Bonnie on “Mom” (7:30 p.m., CBS).

Callen and Sam are trapped in a terrorist’s submarine on “NCIS: Los Angeles” (9 p.m., CBS).
