Kansas University alumni Kent and Missy McCarthy donated the lead gift to construct McCarthy Hall, which is named after Kent’s late mother and proud Kansan, Marie S. McCarthy.

Marie McCarthy was born in 1929 and attended KU on a math scholarship, a rarity for women in her day. She graduated in 1951.

“Mom was a Kansas girl who grew up during the dust bowl era,” Kent said in a Kansas University Endowment report. “KU and the basketball team were a big part of her life, and we wanted to honor her.”

I would need it in order to endure the long City Commission meeting that would CITY surely result from the COMMISSION proposal.

But perhaps the world has changed, because city commissioners at their meeting on Tuesday will begin the process of removing two prime parking spots near Massachusetts Street, and they’re scheduled to do so with a simple vote on their consent agenda.

Overland Park — Uber is not just giving people rides, it’s changing the face of transportation — and the world, company executive and Kansas University alumnus Brian McClendon told a crowd Friday in Overland Park.

McClendon was the special guest speaker at “KU Elevate: Innovation in Action,” a TED-style McClendon event KU hosted at its Edwards Campus. He joined four current KU professors in presenting talks on their innovative research and ideas.

McClendon, a 1986 KU electrical engineering graduate, is vice president of advanced technologies at Uber and a former vice president at Google, where he co-founded Google Earth and other technologies reliant on a web-based maps computer language he invented.

Uber

though Kansas City poses a special challenge: more roads per capita than any of Uber’s other markets.

Uber is pursuing all kinds of ways to improve efficiency and customer experience, McClendon said.

One tackles the problem of the “last 100 yards,” which often pose the biggest challenge to ETAs because even sometimes with a specific address drivers and riders can’t find each other. Using machine learning, Uber now has launched “hotspots” to help identify and map precise locations that are popular pickup spots.

Uber also is trying UberPool in San Francisco, enabling drivers to pick up multiple riders who may be strangers but need transportation along the same routes, enabling them to share a car and cut their costs.

Big picture-wise, Uber being successful stands to make a big difference in the world, McClendon said.

The faster, cheaper and more available Uber can be, the more people may choose to use it instead of owning a car. The fewer

Google does” and calling Uber’s potential “exciting.”

“We’re trying to make transportation as reliable as running water — everywhere, for everyone,” he said Friday.

One of Uber’s keys to succeeding at that goal is and will be efficiency, he said, and at the crux of that is ETAs. That’s the estimated time of arrival an Uber customer will see when they request a ride.

If they get on their phone, request a ride and see that the closest Uber driver seems to be a long time out, they’re more likely to jump in their own car and drive, McClendon said. Conversely, “if that number’s low, it becomes magic.”

Incidentally, McClendon said right now in the Kansas City area the average Uber ETA is 5 minutes, while the average is 3.4 minutes in New York City. They’re working on it,

Wichita — A Wichita mathematician seeking to audit voting machine tapes after finding statistical anomalies in election counts is getting legal and other support in pursuing her lawsuit.

Wichita State University statistician Beth Clarkson had been pursuing the case herself, but now has a Wichita lawyer representing her.

Other people have set up a nonprofit foundation for donations.

A Sedgwick County judge is expected to set filing deadlines and a trial date at a Monday hearing.

Clarkson has analyzed election returns in Kansas and elsewhere over several elections that indicate “a statistically significant” pattern where the percentage of Republican votes increase the larger the size of the precinct. The pattern could indicate election fraud.

Her attorney, Randy Rathbun, says Clarkson convinced him that she is right and somebody needed to help her.

Real election proposal underlies Kobach-Clinton spat Politics

Peter Hancock phancock@ljworld.com

D

emocratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and Kansas’ Republican Secretary of State Kris Kobach got into a shouting-matchby-press-release this week over Kansas’ restrictive voting laws, and in particular the requirement Kobach championed for people to show proof of U.S. citizenship in order to vote.

Clinton’s campaign started it off Thursday — and didn’t make any friends among the Kansas press corps along the way — by sending an email statement to news desks all over the state slamming Kobach for having supported those laws.

And just to show how serious of an issue it is (as if to suggest we didn’t

already know), she hyperlinked to a New York Times story reporting what every major Kansas media outlet has been reporting for months, if not years: that the proof of citizenship law has a disproportionate impact on young voters.

Also in a move that could be taken as a sign of disrespect, they didn’t even give us a statement

Pooch smooch

from Clinton herself. It was from a senior policy adviser, Maya Harris.

“Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach’s fullcourt press to implement harsh voting restrictions and disenfranchisement efforts continue to deny Kansans their basic freedoms by making it more difficult for them to be active participants in our democracy,” Harris said.

If you know anything about Kobach, you know that’s just red meat for him.

“With mounting pressure from Democratic primary challenger Bernie Sanders, the Hillary Clinton presidential campaign has resorted to attacking Kansas election laws,” Kobach said.

ardens are usually as tired as their caretakers by midOctober, but tomatoes, peppers, basil and the like will often hold on until the bitter frosty end. Unfortunately those late green tomatoes are past the point of ripening on the vine outdoors. Gardeners wishing to make the most of their end-ofseason tomatoes and other produce should harvest now.

Green tomatoes are damaged by the cold when temperatures reach 50 degrees Fahrenheit. They are still usable at this point, but decay more quickly.

Lower temperatures mean even more damage. Pick green and any partially ripened fruit and bring it inside to use.

Leave a short piece of stem attached to green or ripening to-

Green tomatoes have a sour flavor that is quite different from their ripe counterparts, but there are lots of ways to use them.

GOP, Democratic debates reveal deep differences

By Dolph C. Simons Jr.

Now that the first Democratic presidential debate is over, the public has been given a clear view of the deep differences between the Democratic and Republican parties and how they intend to win the 2016 presidential election.

Tuesday evening, the five Democratic candidates made it clear they favored greater government involvement and spending billions of additional dollars to cure the nation’s ills.

GOP candidates, in both of their televised debates, focused on the dangers of greater government involvement in the lives of Americans and the danger of an ever-growing national debt.

There was one other glaring difference. The five Democratic hopefuls — Jim Webb, Bernie Sanders, Hillary Clinton, Martin O’Malley and Lincoln Chafee — appeared to have been given a message prior to the debate: It was all right to find fault with one another, but take it easy on Clinton.

Little, if anything, was said

about Clinton’s relationship and involvement with Obama during almost seven years in the White House, the nation’s image and stature abroad, terrorism, the growing national debt, an FBI investigation and other issues on the public’s mind.

Some suggest the other four debaters knew it would be dangerous to come down too hard on Clinton in the debate for fear they would pay serious political consequences if Clinton should win the presidential election.

Although there were few references to the Obama years in the Democratic debate, there were frequent references to George W. Bush’s years in the White House.

One glaring difference between the Democratic and GOP debates is that it was open season for attacks on fellow debaters in the two Republican debates while there was a much more cautious script for the Democratic debate.

This difference probably will extend to the upcoming election campaign. Democrats can

have strong differences, but when it gets close to the time to vote, they band together to form a united and well-organized team. On the other hand, Republicans can’t seem to join hands but remain divided and, in many cases, have the approach that “if I can’t have my way, I’ll sit out and not participate or support my opponent.”

chances to win the presidential race were looking good due to current polls showing a majority of citizens do not favor Obama’s leadership and believe Clinton has lied on numerous matters and is not trustworthy, her performance Tuesday should have made them realize the 2016 election will not be a cakewalk.

Clinton will be a tough, mean when necessary, challenger.

Who will end up being her opponent? And who knows what will be happening throughout the world during the next 12 months — the level of terrorism, the actions of Russian or Chinese leaders and the American economy — all of which could have a major impact on the election.

Politically, the next 12 months are going to be rough and ever-changing. Democrats, in one way or another, will be offering and proposing greater government hand-outs to capture votes, dividing the country between “haves” and “havenots” and injecting racial matters into the election.

Republicans will try to show the dangers of greater and greater government control of

COMMENTARY Democrats seem willing to sacrifice themselves for the good of the party while Republicans find it almost impossible to forget their differences and present a united front to the public.

Clinton was the clear winner in Tuesday’s debate. Her experience, her debate skills and the homework she had done to be prepared were obvious.

Likewise, her onstage challengers were weak compared to the battle among many strong Republican candidates in their two debates.

If Republicans thought their

all facets of Americans’ lives, the nation’s strong drift toward socialism, the loss of stature and respect for the U.S. in other parts of the world and the unmet promises of Obama. Does the country want a continuation of the Obama blueprint through a Clinton presidency? l l l

A big question is whether the debates — Democratic or GOP — will change the minds of voters. Do the majority of those who intend to vote already know for whom they will vote?

In the minds of Democrats, does it make any difference who the Republican candidate is, or will they simply vote for Clinton? Will Republicans vote for any GOP nominee just to vote against Clinton? How many voters will sit out the election because they don’t like their party’s candidate?

There are a lot of questions with so much riding on the outcome of the election. Will voter turnout be the deciding factor regardless of the candidates, or will the candidates determine the turnout?

To ripen green tomatoes, sort and select only the most mature of the green fruit. Look for green tomatoes that are lighter than others or almost white.

Mature green tomatoes are more likely to fully ripen and develop good flavor than the greenest fruit.

Wash and air dry fruit, then place them in open cardboard boxes at temperatures between 55 and 70 degrees F. They will ripen on their own from this point, although some fruit may spoil before fully ripening and should be discarded.

Instead of cardboard boxes, some gardeners recommend using paper or plastic bags, wrapping fruit in newspaper or wax paper, or hanging the entire plant upside down in a garage or shed. These methods are fine if preferred — just remember to check the ripening fruit regularly to get rid of any that spoil. (Rotten tomatoes are messy.) Light is unnecessary for ripening.

Ripening of green tomatoes takes two to four weeks. To speed the process, green fruit can also be placed in a container with a ripe tomato, apple or banana. Ripe fruit releases ethylene gas, a naturally occurring compound that speeds ripening in green

Dear Annie: I was so moved by the letter from “Smarter Now,” and your response that the car shouldn’t move until everyone is buckled up.

On July 26, my 18-year-old son was involved in a fatal car accident that took the life of the young offender who crossed over double yellow lines and hit my son’s car head-on, injuring his passenger and severely debilitating my son. The injury will leave him with a permanently disabled leg, but there was no spine or brain injury.

My son was one of those new drivers who would not insert his key into the ignition until passengers had their seat belts buckled. Everyone made fun of him for it, but they eventually buckled up if they wanted to reach

their destination. I am sending you a photo of the wrecked car so you can see that seat belts save lives.

Once my son is healed and able to walk again, he and his passenger will do PSAs to inspire young drivers to use seat belts and drive responsibly.

— Pennsylvania Dear Pennsylvania: Your son’s car was so severely mangled that it’s hard to imagine anyone walking away

Schumer is live at the Apollo The comedian of the year gets her own special Saturday night on “Amy Schumer: Live at the Apollo” (9 p.m., HBO).

Chris Rock directs this hour of stand-up, recorded before a live audience back in May. Schumer is on a roll, having won an Emmy and a Peabody Award for her Comedy Central series “Inside Amy Schumer” and recently starring in “Trainwreck,” the big-screen comedy she also wrote. Like Sarah Silverman, Schumer arrived as a female comic not afraid to out-raunch her male counterparts. But she has since transcended mere shock value.

Can you be nostalgic for a period piece based on nostalgia itself? Can you do the “Time Warp” again? BBC America presents “The Rocky Horror Show” (11 p.m.), a two-hour performance of the original London stage show that first appeared in 1973. Listen for the voices of Stephen Fry and Anthony Head (”Buffy the Vampire Slayer”) as narrators, along with Richard O’Brien, who created this mad pop culture pastiche all those years ago.

Tonight’s other highlights

College football action includes USC at Notre Dame (6:30 p.m., NBC) and Penn State at Ohio State (7 p.m., ABC).

A coed rues her decision to remain on campus over Thanksgiving break in the 2014 thriller “Kristy” (7 p.m., Lifetime).

Curious college students open a mysterious portal and don’t like what they see in the 2015 shocker “They Found Hell” (8 p.m., Syfy).

Escape from Viking captivity on “Doctor Who” (8 p.m., BBC America).

Walter commemorates his brief war experience on “Blunt Talk” (8 p.m., Starz).

Missy mentors Jupiter on “Survivor’s Remorse” (8:30 p.m., Starz).

Uhtred and Brida escape Aelfric on “The Last Kingdom” (9 p.m., BBC America).

Tracy Morgan hosts “Saturday Night Live” (10:30 p.m., NBC), with musical guest Demi Lovato.

Hell to pay in Dubai on “NCIS” (7 p.m., CBS).

A double surprise on “Grandfathered” (7 p.m., Fox).

from it. We are glad he will recover and we appreciate the strong warning to buckle up.

Dear Annie: This is in response to “Foolish Daughter in the Midwest,” who was angry when she found out that her parents were leaving all of their land overseas to her brothers, who never provide any help with their care.

I, too, spent large amounts of my time and money helping my mother care for my father, who had severe dementia. My brother and sister refused to do a thing, nor did they visit my father in the nursing home.

When my father died, I learned that my parents will be giving the bulk of their estate to those same uncaring siblings.

My mother will soon need care. I have made

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Saturday, Oct. 17: This year you might be testing your limits. You will be prone to taking risks. Be careful, as you might regret this behavior. If you are single, you meet people with ease and enjoy many different personality types. If you are attached, the two of you notice a new intensity and a need to share even more.

The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) You might have a secret admirer. Look around. Tonight: Opt for different.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) Reach out to a dear friend whom you care a lot about.

Tonight: Dinner for two.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) If you rein in your need to be the alpha dog, friends will make plans that include you. You could have a ball. Tonight: Keep on going.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) Know that an unexpected offer or situation might force you in a new direction. Tonight: As you like it.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) You could be off having a great time, enjoying a special person in your life. Tonight: Very playful.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You put your best foot forward, no matter what you do

the painful decision that I will not be responsible for her, primarily because I cannot afford the financial burden. “Foolish” should accept that she cannot change her dysfunctional family. But she can set healthy limits on how much to help.

Her parents’ finances and assets should be used to cover their care. — Wiser Now Dear Wiser: While parents do not owe their children an inheritance, they sometimes don’t realize that favoring one child over another in the will, regardless of the reason, can cause hurt feelings that last the rest of their lives.

or whom you are with. You have a great deal of sensitivity and energy. Tonight: Invite friends over.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Pick up the phone and catch up on news with a friend.

Tonight: Hang out with a favorite person.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Understand that extremes won’t help you with your finances or with an emotional situation. Tonight: Make it your treat.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You could feel tense, as you know you must make an important appearance with a parent or boss. Make plans that keep you close to home. Tonight: Be gracious.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Be willing to reach out to someone at a distance. Tonight: Relax in a very different environment.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You’ll have a choice to make between hanging out with friends and getting together with a special person in your life. Don’t overthink this decision. Tonight: Choose a favorite stressbuster.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) You might confuse a friend or partner without intending to. Tonight: A force to be dealt with.

Game over; Clinton is the nominee Washington — I repeat: Unless she’s indicted, Hillary Clinton will win the Democratic nomination. I wrote that six weeks ago, amid fevered dreams of a Clinton collapse and a Joe Biden rescue. That those were a mirage is all the more obvious after Tuesday’s debate. The reason, then as now, is simple: Clinton has no competition.

She’s up against three ciphers and one endearing, gesticulating, slightly unmoored old man.

If Joe Biden was ever thinking of getting into the race, he’d be crazy to do so now. It’s over.

Indeed, even before the debate, Clinton’s numbers had stabilized. It began with Kevin McCarthy’s gaffe of the decade.

That gave her a perpetual getout-of-jail-free card that she adroitly deploys whenever the email issue arises. Her technique is flawless: a few meaningless phrases about having made a mistake, taking responsibility and being transparent, blah blah, followed by (I paraphrase) “but look at the larger picture, even Kevin McCarthy admits it’s a partisan witch hunt.” QED. At the debate, Bernie Sanders sealed the deal with a thunderous “the American people are sick and tired of hearing about your damn emails.” That rendered the issue officially off-limits to all Democrats. File closed.

End of story. Of course, it will be featured in the general election, but we’re talking here about her getting the nomination.

Charles Krauthammer letters@charleskrauthammer.com

“

She’s up against three ciphers and one endearing, gesticulating, slightly unmoored old man. If Joe Biden was ever thinking of getting into the race, he’d be crazy to do so now.”

In gratuitously granting her absolution, Sanders garnered points for high-mindedness. But he’d already cornered the highmindedness market. Sanders was right to call this move dumb politics. His declaration simply and definitively conceded the race to Clinton. Leo Durocher said nice guys finish last. Sanders will finish second, which in this case is the same thing.

Clinton won the debate because it didn’t change the dynamic. It froze the race and she’s far in the lead. It doesn’t matter that her lead has shrunk from 50 points to 20. Twenty points is a landslide.

She remains a lousy candidate but she is an excellent de-

bater — smart, quick, strategic and extremely practiced. Eight years ago, she debated Barack Obama 25 times. Tuesday night, she successfully bobbed and weaved and pivoted. She was at her most impressive, however, when she whacked Sanders upside the head — twice — right out of the box. He didn’t know what hit him.

At the very start, she attacked from the left on gun control, from the right on capitalism. She simply said the magic words — small business, too?

— and he beat an unsteady retreat. In general, Sanders was wild and wavy and loud and not very nimble. After all, how much practice do you get when for 35 years you’ve been campaigning as a social democrat in Vermont, America’s Denmark?

Sanders is good on an empty podium taking on invisible billionaires. Put him up against a Clinton and he’s lost.

He did make history of a sort, however. Every debate has its moment — the sound bite that lives forever (or until the next debate, whichever comes first).

His “damn emails” thunderbolt is the first such immortal line to be delivered by one candidate that seals victory for another.

The other three candidates hardly registered.

Lincoln Chafee, currently polling at 0.3 points (minus-10 Celsius), played Ross Perot’s 1992 running mate, Adm. James Stockdale, who opened his vice presidential debate with: “Who am I? Why am I here?”

— Charles Krauthammer is a columnist for Washington Post Writers Group.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Oct. 17, 1915: “Foreshadowing an unprecedented increase in the price of years drugs which already had quaago drupled since the beginning of IN 1915 the war in Europe, a druggist jobbing salesman in Lawrence received a wire from his house today notifying him to stop quotations entirely on glycerine and quinine. Not only is an increase in price imminent, but the question will shortly be one of getting a supply of the drugs at all, in the opinion of this salesman.... The inquiries indicate that the visible supply of these chemicals is becoming exhausted, and that it will shortly be necessary to gather up all that can be procured and use them only for the most necessary purposes. This indicates also that the price at which they will be sold will be almost prohibitive and will be much higher than were ever heard of before.”

Democratic National Committee Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz came out a winner. She insisted, despite the squawking of Martin O’Malley and others, on no more than six debates. Who needs the other five? Tuesday night settled the issue. When there’s a knockout in the first round, you stop the fight.

This is not to say that by objective standards — i.e., against minimally competent competition — Clinton did so brilliantly. After all, to prepare the ground and pre-empt any attack from the left, she preceded the debate with a supremely cynical abandonment of both the Keystone XL pipeline and the Trans-Pacific Partnership, which as secretary of state she’d pronounced “the gold standard” of trade deals.

It did smooth her debate night. But by so transparently compounding her inauthenticity problem, the flip-flops will cost her in the general election.

But that’s for later. Right now, game over. Amid the playacting between today and Clinton’s coronation next summer, we can joyfully savor the most delightful moment of the debate, when we were reminded

by Anderson Cooper that Sanders had honeymooned in the Soviet Union.

Voting issue To the editor: I look forward to Secretary of State Kobach’s explanation of how requiring proof of citizenship for voter registration will prevent people from double voting.

Parking hammer To the editor: The disaster that is the Here @ Kansas development near Memorial Stadium deepens (Journal-World, Oct. 15). “At this point,” the acting city manager doesn’t “know that we have received a definite answer” from the developer “to understand the status of things.”At this point. Ah, the camel’s nose.

To further reassure us, she said that any modification to the parking plan would have to receive City Commission approv-

al. And for even further reassurance, Chad Lawhorn writes, “the city ultimately holds the hammer on this project. … (The development) can’t be used until the city issues an occupancy permit.” Vastly reassuring — until one recollects how many times, while holding the hammer, the city has swung it. None?

My suggestion is that they swing it promptly, letting the developer know immediately that, without onsite parking to the number earlier agreed on, there will be no occupancy permit, thus giving the developer the chance before more construction takes place, to change design plans if necessary to provide onsite parking. Oh, sure, it might be nice to rescind the tax rebate, but therein lies another Jarndyce v. Jarndyce. Probably best to let that City Commission mistake stand but not commit another by fudging the parking.

To the editor: I would like to see the Journal-World impose a temporary moratorium on “religious witness” in its letters to the editor section.

If these missives were few and far between, the discriminate reader might consign them to the category of contrary opinion that enriches a diverse community such as ours.

Unfortunately, though, they abound, particularly on the part of one writer whose jury-rigged jeremiads appear with the frequency of a regular column.

And too often they reveal a blatant or thinly veiled subtext of homophobia, which attributes our supposed condemnation as nation and community to the presence of certain citizens among us. Now, many of us think that this country is indeed going to hell in a handbasket, but because of issues that can

loops to all parking meter poles would be more expensive than the proposed $9,000 plan, I don’t know.

I have heard from some bikers that would be upset if the city did anything to make it illegal to park their bikes at the parking meter poles. It makes for convenient parking.

If you believe that the parking meter poles are legitimate bike parking spaces — and I realize perhaps some folks don’t — then it is hard to argue there is a shortage of parking spaces for bicyclists on Massachusetts Street, at least not a parking shortage comparable to what vehicles face.

I’ve seen many occasions when every vehicle space on Massachusetts Street has been occupied. I’ve never seen every parking meter pole on Mass. Street occupied by a bike.

But as I mentioned earlier, staff members also have noted this plan is at least partially about increasing the visibility of bicycling in Lawrence. In the memo, the staff notes that replacing some vehicle parking spaces with bike corrals will help “advertise bike friendliness and bring legitimacy and visibility to bicycling for transportation.”

Let me be clear: I’m not saying that is inappropriate. It may be a really good goal, and it may be a really good use of public policy to promote that goal.

But, it seems to me that if that is what we are doing here, then people need to understand that is what we are doing. I suspect there are some people who don’t want to reduce downtown parking spaces unless there is an actual shortage of bicycle parking spaces.

LAS VEGAS Lamar Odom was awake and responsive to communicative attempts from his estranged wife Khloe Kardashian at a Las Vegas hospital Friday morning, according to Odom’s college basketball coach Jim Harrick.

In a telephone conversation with USA TODAY USA TODAY SPORTS Sports, Harrick Lamar Odom said Kardashian, who married the former NBA player in 2009, had texted details of a strong improvement in Odom’s condition.

“She reached down and said ‘you know I love you,’ and he kind of nodded,” Harrick said.

ncidents Thursday and Friday heightened tensions between Israel and the Palestinians.

Late Thursday, Palestinians set fire to Joseph’s Tomb, a religious site in the West Bank revered by some Jews as the tomb of biblical patriarch Joseph. Friday, a Palestinian impersonating a journalist stabbed an Israeli solider.

The attacks came as the militant group Hamas called for a “day of rage” against Israel.

Eight Israelis have been killed in Palestinian attacks over the last month, the majority of them a result of stabbings. Over the same period, 31 Palestinians were killed by Israeli fire, including 14 labeled by Israel as attackers. The rest were killed in clashes with Israeli troops.

Friday, hundreds of Palestinians from Gaza clashed with Israeli troops.

Poll: Debate boosts Clinton in N.H. Regains lead over fellow presidential candidate Sanders Susan Page USA TODAY

WASHINGTON After a commanding performance in the first Democratic debate, Hillary Clinton has regained a narrow lead over Bernie Sanders in the crucial state of New Hampshire, a new Suffolk University Poll of likely Democratic voters finds.

In the survey, taken in conjunction with The Boston Globe, Clinton is at 37% and Sanders at 35%. That’s within the poll’s 4.4 percentage point margin of error.

The poll of 500 Democrats,

taken Wednesday and Thursday, is the first public poll released in the aftermath of Tuesday’s debate.

Even what is essentially a tie reflects an improvement for the former secretary of State in the Granite State, which holds the first presidential primary in February. In the four most recent previous statewide polls, averaged by RealClearPolitics, the Vermont senator had led Clinton, 39% to 30%.

In the new survey, Vice President Biden, who hasn’t decided whether to run, was at 11%. Former Virginia senator Jim Webb was at 3%, and former governors Martin O’Malley of Maryland and Lincoln Chafee of Rhode Island were each at 1%.

Among the 283 Democrats who watched the debate, 54%

chose Clinton as the winner, while 24% said Sanders.

New Hampshire Democrats also see Clinton as having the best chance of winning the general election in November 2016.

A 52% majority chose her, compared with 16% who cited Sanders and 14% Biden.

Even so, questions of trust

continue to dog Clinton. Asked which of the potential candidates they trusted the most, 33% chose Sanders, 23% Biden and 22% Clinton.

But by nearly 2-1, 62%-36%, poll respondents said the controversy over Clinton’s emails at the State Department didn’t bother them.

And Clinton’s position in support of gun control measures was more in step with voters than Sanders, who has voted against some proposals: 41% say Clinton more closely reflects their position on guns; 24% Sanders.

The poll also found that New Hampshire Democrats are also inclined to say Biden shouldn’t run. Fifty percent said he shouldn’t, while 36% said he should.

Court rules Google’s massive book-scanning project legal Authors say snippets violate copyrights Elizabeth Weise @eweise USA TODAY

SAN FRANCISCO It’s legal under copyright law for Google to scan millions of books and make snippets of them searchable online, a U.S. appeals court ruled Friday.

The ruling is part of a decadelong, bitter battle between authors and publishers on one side and researchers and Google on the other.

Google, whose parent company is known as Alphabet, began its book-scanning project in 2004.

The scanned volumes are searchable online but only in snippets.

Google’s argument has been that those snippets are legal under the “fair use” provisions of U.S. copyright law, which allows limited use of copyrighted material without the permission of the rights’ holders. It’s the same legal use that allows reviewers to quote from books without paying for the privilege.

The Authors Guild and several individual writers sued Google in 2005.

The plaintiffs argued that Goo-

gle’s scans illegally deprived them of revenue from their writings.

Google responded to author complaints by saying the ability

to search books would not harm authors but help them by aiding readers in finding and choosing to buy volumes they might not have otherwise.

Friday, the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New York unanimously agreed with Google.

“Google’s division of the page into tiny snippets is designed to show the searcher just enough context surrounding the searched term to help her evaluate whether the book falls within the scope of her interest (without revealing so much as to threaten the author’s copyright interests),” Circuit Judge Pierre Leval wrote in the ruling.

In a statement, Google said it was pleased the court has confirmed its digitization project is fair use, acting much like a card catalog for the digital age.

Authors Guild Executive Director Mary Rasenberger said she was disappointed the court was “unable to see the damaging effect that uses such as Google’s will have on authors’ potential income.”

She made it clear the Authors Guild planned to appeal the decision.

“We trust that the Supreme Court will see fit to correct the 2nd Circuit’s reduction of fair use,” she said.

Researchers suspect entirely new species among Late Triassic-era creatures that lived where once was a shallow lake

A giant pterosaur catches a sphenosuchian in this artist’s conception. The creatures lived near an oasis in what is now Utah.

‘CANDY SHOP’ OF WEIRD ANIMAL FOSSILS FOUND

Traci Watson

Special for USA TODAY

Scientists found an unprecedented cache of fossils of weird animals that thrived at a desert oasis about 200 million years ago, providing a snapshot of a place and time that have long been a mystery.

The fossils include the bones of a fanged flying predator and creatures that looked like tiny crocodiles with a Chihuahua’s legs.

Small reptiles whose “hands” resemble a mole’s lived alongside dinosaurs that scampered on their hind legs.

Researchers suspect many of the fossils represent entirely new species. “Probably almost everything we’re finding (at the site) is previously unknown to science,” says Dan Chure of Dinosaur Na-

tional Monument, one of the site’s co-discoverers. “It’s just an amazing paleontological candy shop.”

The fossils are “a spectacular find,” says University of Utah paleontologist Randall Irmis, who isn’t involved in the project. “We so rarely get sites that preserve such a variety of different animals from the beginning of the age of dinosaurs.”

The animals at the site should help illuminate the period just before the mass extinction that allowed the dinosaurs to take over the Earth, Irmis says. The fossils also illuminate exactly what was living in the vast sand box that filled what is now the Western USA, where fossils from the Late Triassic are scarce.

When a pair of scientists set out to search for fossils in the ancient desert known as “The Sandpit,” their expectations were low.

“Everything ... has been one amazing discovery after another.”

Dan Chure, Dinosaur National Monument

“We were hopeful we could find one locality with, maybe, one specimen in it,” says George Engelmann of the University of Nebraska-Omaha, who along with Chure discovered the site.

In 2008, after two years of searching, the researchers stepped on land in northern Utah that was thickly littered with old bones, and “everything since then has been one amazing discovery after another,” Chure says.

The site holds more than 11,000 fossils in an area as big as a goodsized living room, says Brigham Young University’s Brooks Britt, who is analyzing fossils from the site. Eons ago, the site was a shallow lake, probably fringed with plants such as ferns until a cataclysmic drought. The result was a Late Triassic time capsule that preserves not only the usual big guys but also the small fry that seldom survive in the fossil record.

There are drepanosaurs, an extremely rare reptile with “hands” like a mole’s — animals never suspected of living in deserts. There are creatures like long-legged crocodiles. There are two kinds of lizard-like sphenodonts.

Soaring above them all was a pterosaur, which is not a dinosaur but a flying reptile usually found in ancient seas.

FDA long has warned about hidden ingredients v CONTINUED FROM 1B

hidden pharmaceuticals, despite labels claiming they only contain herbs and other natural ingredients, experts and regulators have warned for years.

Odom took cocaine and as many as 10 sexual–performance supplement pills leading up to his hospitalization in Las Vegas, according to a 911 call released by the Nye County Sheriff’s Department.

The product he took was “Reload 72-hour strong sexual performance enhancer for men,” two employees of the Love Ranch said on the 911 call.

In 2013, the FDA issued a public warning that consumers should not purchase or use a supplement called Reload because tests found it contains sildenafil, the active ingredient in the prescription erectile dysfunction drug Viagra.

The undeclared ingredient may dangerously interact with other drugs, especially nitrates often taken by men with diabetes, high blood pressure or heart disease, the FDA warned. It’s unclear from the FDA notice what company made the product.

USA TODAY’s “Supplement Shell Game” investigation in 2013 found it difficult or impossible to determine who the people or companies are behind many drug-spiked supplements. When companies could be identified, USA TODAY found many are run by people with criminal backgrounds and regulatory run-ins.

The FDA said in a statement Thursday that the regulation of dietary supplements is “extremely challenging” and that the industry is huge and growing — currently about $35 billion in sales, up from about $5.8 billion in 1995. Under the existing law, the FDA said it has “limited authority and faces significant hurdles and resource limitations” in regulating supplements.

A satellite image taken early Friday shows Typhoon Koppu as it spins near the Philippines.

While Atlantic has been mild, Pacific storm season has been wild Doyle Rice USA TODAY

Typhoon Koppu’s predicted hit on the Philippines this weekend adds to what has been a record season for storms in the Pacific Ocean.

Koppu, which could strengthen to a Category 4 typhoon, is the 46th named tropical cyclone that’s formed in the Pacific this year, according to meteorologist and hurricane expert Phil Klotzbach of Colorado State University. Tropical cyclones are called hurricanes east of the International Date Line and typhoons to the west of the Date Line.

Typically at this point in the year, 36 named storms have formed in the Pacific.

The best way of measuring a season’s ferocity, Klotzbach said, is by “Accumulated Cyclonic Energy” (ACE), a measurement that takes into account the number, strength and duration of all the storms put together.

“ACE is not only a measure of tropical cyclone activity, but a measure of the damage potential of an individual cyclone or a season,” according to the Weather Underground.

The ACE this year in the Pacif-

ic is 615, which is the highest for this period since accurate records began to be kept in 1971, Klotzbach said.

El Niño, a natural warming of tropical Pacific waters, has provided fuel for the storms, which usually need warm water of at least 80 degrees to form. Ocean temperatures near Hawaii are at record highs, Klotzbach said.

Also, El Niño reduces the winds that tend to tear hurricanes and typhoons apart.

The all-time highest Pacific ACE was 760, which occurred in 1992.

Pacific ACE is usually much higher than Atlantic ACE, since far more powerful storms usually form in the massive Pacific Ocean. The highest ACE in the Atlantic of 250 was in 2005, a season that included ferocious Hurricane Katrina, which itself had an ACE of 20.

Other than Joaquin, the Atlantic hurricane season has been mostly a dud, as predicted and as is typical during El Niño. Only three hurricanes have formed, according to the National Hurricane Center. ACE in the Atlantic this season is a paltry 55.

Some computer models hint that a tropical storm could form in the Gulf of Mexico next week.

GENEVA When the Swiss go to the polls Sunday to elect a new parliament, it will be a familiar trudge. That’s because citizens regularly are asked to approve a wide array of legislation, ranging from housing for sex workers in Zurich to approval of assisted suicide in nursing homes.

The active role the Swiss play in enacting laws may seem strange in the United States and other nations where elected officials make decisions on behalf of their constituents. But not in Switzerland, where a centuriesold tradition of direct democracy gives people — rather than lawmakers — the power to shape local and national policies.

That power of the people explains why the 246 members of parliament, who will be elected to four-year terms, aren’t career politicians. The public has the final word to change laws or create new ones through frequent referendums.

Also, any national, state or municipal law can be vetoed, because the public has the right to put every piece of legislation to a referendum. All it takes is a petition with 50,000 legitimate signatures presented to the federal administration office.

And the Swiss can create their own laws through citizen-driven initiatives. To get an initiative on a ballot, a petition with 100,000 signatures is required.

“The threat of an initiative or a referendum creates a high degree of consensus.”

Adrian Ritz, Center of Competence for Public Management at the University of Bern

“Switzerland’s political system is exceptional when compared to other democracies,” said Adrian Ritz of the Center of Competence for Public Management at the University of Bern.

No measure can become a law here until citizens approve it.

On average, the Swiss vote four times a year on several issues at a time. One such issue was the government’s 2008 proposal to renew Switzerland’s publicly funded heroin distribution program. It was overwhelmingly approved, because voters saw it as an effective way to keep addicts

Among the successful initiatives launched in recent years was approving the deportation of immigrants who commit violent crimes in Switzerland.

One of the wackiest citizen initiatives was a 2010 push by animal rights activists that would require the government to appoint lawyers to represent animals in court. The voters rejected that proposal since Switzerland already has strict laws protecting pets and farm animals.

While some issues are trivial, the system limits polarization.

“The threat of an initiative or a

referendum creates a high degree of consensus,” Ritz said.

Swiss people power can also make waves beyond the country’s borders. Last year, voters defied government recommendations and approved curbing immigration from European Union countries to protect Switzerland’s workforce. The vote nullified a treaty between Switzerland and the 28-nation EU that allowed citizens of EU countries to live and work in the Alpine nation.

The Swiss government is still trying to deal with the fallout.

That’s why the grass-roots system has some critics. Edward Girardet, managing editor of the local English language newspaper LeNews, argued that direct democracy is “not the way to run a country responsibly.”

Ritz added that putting so many laws to a vote means “the political decision-making process is comparably slow.”

Some legislators are calling for more restrictive guidelines. One lawmaker suggested that in addition to the 50,000 signatures required for a referendum, 50 members of parliament must also approve the proposed initiative.

This measure, too, would first have to be put to a vote. And the Swiss are unlikely to adopt a law that curbs their own power, Ritz predicted.

Obama’s options in debt limit breach are few Whether he taxes, borrows or refuses to spend, he could be violating law Gregory Korte USA TODAY

In the event of a debt limit breach, President Obama would be forced to do one of three things, each one of them illegal and perhaps even unconstitutional, legal scholars say.

He could borrow money unilaterally, in defiance of the $18.1 trillion debt limit set by Congress. He could raise revenue by instituting new taxes, which would encroach on the taxing power of Congress and deprive people of property without due process. Or he could cut spending, which would renege on entitlement programs and violate the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Act of 1974, which requires the president to spend the money that Congress approves.

If Congress fails to raise the debt ceiling before the Treasury runs out of borrowed money in early November, the White House may have to decide which of those three options is the least unconstitutional. So which would President Obama choose? The White House won’t say.

“This is a thought-provoking WASHINGTON

exercise and probably makes for a good op-ed that I think I would read. But at this point, I wouldn’t speculate on what is a hypothetical situation, primarily because the expectation that we have is that Congress will do the right thing, and they will increase the debt limit,” White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest told USA TODAY on Thursday. “The scenario you just laid out is one that should be avoided at all costs.”

That scenario is approaching.

Treasury Secretary Jack Lew told Congress on Thursday the projected date of default is now Nov. 3, two days earlier than expected.

And that deadline looms under markedly different political conditions than the last two debt limit crises, with the Republican House leadership in question and no accompanying spending bill to tack a debt limit increase on to.

Congress has appropriated enough money to run the government through Dec. 12 — but only if there’s money to spend.

Since the 2011 debt crisis, the White House has maintained there are no plans to invoke what legal scholars call the “14th Amendment solution.” Section four of that amendment was in-

BRENDAN SMIALOWSKI, AFP/GETTY IMAGES

President Obama “is going to be between a rock and a hard place,” analysts say.

“ ... At this point, I wouldn’t speculate on what is a hypothetical situation.”

White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest

tended to assure debt issued by the Union during the Civil War would be honored.

“The validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law, including debts incurred for payment of pensions and bounties for services in suppressing insurrection or rebellion, shall not be questioned.”

The 14th Amendment solution is “off the table” and “not a viable option,” Earnest reiterated.

The Treasury Department says it’s also unable to prioritize payments and so would have to stop spending entirely once it ran out of cash. But it’s also illegal for the president not to spend money appropriated by Congress. The 1974 Impoundment Act was a response to President Nixon’s refusal to spend $12 billion in spending he viewed as wasteful.

“There’s no option. The president is going to be between a rock and a hard place if the debt limit isn’t increased,” said Neil Buchanan, a George Washington University law professor who first put forward his “trilemma” argument in 2012 with Cornell University’s Michael Dorf. “He has nothing but unconstitutional choices. Once you’re there, you have to make a choice. Not making a choice is a choice.”

And the least unconstitutional of those choices, Buchanan argues, is to borrow just enough money to pay current obligations already mandated by Congress.

Conservative lawyers reject that analysis, saying it’s the spending obligations that have to give.

“For the government to spend money, two things have to happen. There has to be an appropriation, and there has to be money in the treasury to draw from,” said David Rivkin Jr., a partner at the law firm of Baker & Hostetler.

If the government runs out of borrowing authority, there’s no money to spend. “The government makes all sorts of promises.

Many, particularly entitlement benefits, are not binding unless there’s money to honor them.”

Earnest said he’s not aware of any legal analysis by the White House Counsel’s office about what options the president has in the event of default. But Rivkin, a former White House lawyer in the first Bush administration, suspects there have been talks.

“My sense is they’ve looked at it and informally concluded there is no constitutional way for the president to borrow money or increase taxes on his own authority.

But they did not want to take any options off the table,” he said.

Meet Jeb Bush’s top fundraisers Republican claims he’s most transparent; watchdogs disagree Fredreka Schouten and Christopher A Schnaars USA TODAY

WASHINGTON Republican Jeb Bush drew on 341 fundraisers to collect at least $6 million for his White House bid, according to a list his campaign released Thursday afternoon.

That’s roughly a quarter of the money he has raised to date.

Bush’s roster of “volunteer fundraisers” reads like a who’s who of Republican politics in recent years and ranges from Republican strategist and CNN commentator Ana Navarro and Chicago investor Muneer Satter to Indianapolis attorney Bob Grand and Jets’ owner Woody Johnson, who serves as Bush’s national finance chairman. Eric Cantor, the former House majority leader, also makes the list.

The list includes at least 64 people who raised money for the campaign of his brother, former president George W. Bush, a USA TODAY analysis shows. The former Florida governor found many fundraisers close to home.

Seventy-six, or more than 20% of them, live in the Sunshine State.

They include former Florida House speaker Will Weatherford and Adam Putnam, the state’s top agriculture official and a likely 2018 candidate for Florida governor.

Bush’s move makes him the first Republican presidential contender to release the names of his bundlers, which his aides tout as a sign that he is the most transparent candidate in the 2016 contest.

DANIEL ACKER, BLOOMBERG

Jeb Bush, center, greets attendees during the Scott County Republican party Ronald Reagan Dinner in Davenport, Iowa, on Oct. 6.

Earlier this year, Bush released 33 years of tax returns, and on Thursday his campaign publicly shared his 2014 returns, along with a statement about his health. (For the record, Bush takes a cholesterol-lowering drug and Vitamin D supplements each day but is healthy, particularly after his recent weight loss, his doctor reports.)

Campaign-finance watchdogs, however, say Bush’s decision to release the names of donors who collected at least $17,600 without

detailing how much each actually raised doesn’t give the public a window into the identities of his biggest fundraisers. The list includes their home city and state, but no details about their employment.

“Without knowing the amounts — even ranges — these bundlers raised for Bush, we can’t really know who’s most valued,” said Sheila Krumholz, executive director of the Center for Responsive Politics, a non-partisan group that tracks political money.

“Real transparency means we know who’s giving how much to whom — whether it’s millions going to a candidate’s dark money groups or checks being gathered by their bundlers.”

Democratic presidential frontrunner Hillary Clinton is identifying donors who collect at least $100,000 for her campaign. Former president George W. Bush, Jeb Bush’s older brother who pioneered the use of bundlers, highlighted two groups of donors in his public disclosures — those

who had collected at least $100,000 and those who had raised $200,000 or more.

Candidates for federal office cannot collect more than $2,700 from an individual donor for the primary elections. As a result, White House contenders are relying on supporters to help collect money from their friends, relatives and associates to remain competitive in a presidential battle that likely will top $2 billion.

These bundlers win coveted access to White House candidates during the campaign and often are rewarded for their efforts with plum posts, such as European and Caribbean ambassadorships, if their candidate prevails.

Later this month, for instance, Bush fundraisers who collect at least $50,000 can mingle with Bush and two former presidents, his father and brother, at an event in Houston.

Presidential contenders are not required to release the names of their top fundraisers, except for those who are registered as federal lobbyists and raise at least $17,600. That’s the same threshold Bush is using to determine which supporters’ identities to disclose.

With a baseline number that’s so low, the actual amount raised

by Bush’s bundlers likely far exceeds $6 million. In all, Bush has collected more than $24.8 million since joining the race in midJune, much of it at high-dollar fundraising events.

Bush’s disclosure came as he and other candidates had to file reports Thursday with the Federal Election Commission that detail their fundraising and spending between July 1 and Sept. 30.

IN BRIEF OBAMA: U.S. PLEDGES TO DEFEND SOUTH KOREA

President Obama reaffirmed American support of South Korea on Friday, telling President Park Geun-hye that the U.S. commitment to her nation’s security “will never waver” in the face of threats by nuclear-armed North Korea.

“Our alliance remains a linchpin of peace and security not just on the Korean peninsula, but across the region,” Obama said during a news conference after meeting with Park at the White House.

As for North Korea, Obama said: “Pyongyang’s nuclear and missile programs have achieved nothing except to deepen North Korea’s isolation.”

Workers walk past fallen scaffloding after it collapsed at a downtown Houston construction site Friday. Emergency crews rescued six construction workers trapped under the wreckage.

Friday.

A worker on a private ranch about 50 miles east of Austin was using a tractor to pull a weed shredder at around noon Tuesday when he noticed a line of fire trailing him, Bastrop County Judge Paul Pape said. The fire quickly spread among the dry

weeds. Within 20 minutes, it was raging out of control, he said. The exact cause was still under investigation.

The Hidden Pines Fire, as it is being called, has since consumed 4,582 acres, destroyed 40 homes and buildings and was about onefourth contained, Pape said.

Emergency teams rescued 14 people from a section of Interstate 5 north of Los Angeles late Thursday after flash floods unleashed mudslides that stranded hundreds of vehicles and forced many drivers to scramble to the roof tops of their cars.

One rain gauge in the Leona Valley reported 3.38 inches of rain in one hour (of which 1.81 inches was in 30 minutes), which the National Weather Service in Los Angeles described as a “1,000-year rainfall event.”

A “1,000-year” event means that there’s a 1-in-1,000 (or 0.1% chance) of it happening in any given year in a given location, the weather service said.

This is at least the seventh “1,000-year rain event” in the U.S. since 2010, according to a USA TODAY analysis.

Sales of the Viper have been disappointing since the company revived the iconic sports car in 2012. A letter included in the tentative fouryear contract reached last week between the automaker and the UAW says production of the current Viper will end in 2017. “No future product has yet been identified beyond the product life cycle,” Glenn Shagena, FCA U.S. head of employee relations for North America, says in the letter, dated Oct. 7.

KIA RECALLS 377,000 SORENTO SUVS Kia is recalling 377,000 of its Sorento crossover SUVs because the transmission can shift out of “park” on its own. The recall applies to 2011 to 2013 Sorentos, according to documents filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The filing says if excessive force is applied to the gear shift lever, the brake-shift interlock mechanism might chip or crack. If that happens, the transmission can shift out of the park position on its own without the brakes being applied.

ABSURD EXCUSES FOR CALLING IN SICK TO WORK Kevin McCoy USA TODAY

If you called in sick to work during the last year even though you felt fine, you’re not alone.

Thirty-eight percent of U.S. employees did it — using such lame excuses as being stuck under a bed — according to an annual survey by CareerBuilder, the largest online job site in the U.S. The findings mark a jump from the 28% who admitted playing hooky in last year’s survey.

Many had tried arguably accurate explanations. For instance, 27% reported they had a doctor’s appointment, the survey found.

But an equivalent percentage claimed they just didn’t feel like working, 26% said they needed to relax and 21% said they needed to catch up on sleep.

The most popular months to call in sick continued to be December (20%), January (15%) and February (14%), findings on par with last year’s survey results, CareerBuilder reported.

Fewer than 1 in 10 employees fessed up to calling in sick during the year-end holidays. But the 68% of those who did said they feigned illness to spend time with family and friends, while 21% said they wanted to do gift shopping.

Employers are getting wise to questionable excuses — and taking action — the survey found.

Although most employers said they trust their workers, 67% said they checked to see if the employee was telling the truth by asking to see a doctor’s note.

Thirty-three percent of all employers said they caught a worker lying about being sick by examining her or his social media accounts. Twenty-six percent of that group said they fired the offender, the survey found.

However, some employees told surveyors they reported for job duty, even when they feel ill.

MEMORABLE SICKNESS CLAIMS The top 10 most memorable claims reported by the employers surveyed: 1. Employee said his grandmother poisoned him with ham.

2. Worker claimed to be stuck under the bed.

3. Employee said he broke an arm while trying to grab a falling sandwich.

4. Worker claimed the universe was telling him to take a day off.

5. Employee said his wife learned he was cheating — so he had to recover his belongings from a dumpster.

6. Worker said she poked herself in the eye while combing her hair.

7. Employee said his wife put all his underwear in the washer.

8. Worker said the meal he prepared for work potluck turned out badly.

9. Employee said she was going to the beach because a doctor said she needed more vitamin D. 10. Worker said her cat was stuck inside the dashboard of her car.

Source: Harris Poll/CareerBuilder survey

Fifty-four percent of workers surveyed said they had gone to work despite sickness because they felt their assignments wouldn’t get done. And 48%, up from 38% last year, said they reported for work because they couldn’t afford to miss a day’s pay.

REASONS FOR CALLING IN SICK — EVEN WHEN YOU’RE WELL Why employees called in sick to work when they were not feeling ill:

Had doctor’s appointment 27% Just didn’t feel like working 27% Needed to relax 26% Needed to sleep 21% Weather was bad 12% CHECKING ON EMPLOYEES One in three employers have checked to see if an employee was telling the truth after calling in sick. How they did it:

Asked for doctor’s note 67%

Called employee at home 49%

Checked employee’s social media 32%

VW owners can check database on emissions Nathan Bomey @NathanBomey USA TODAY

U.S. owners of Volkswagen cars can now determine whether their vehicle is fitted with the manipulative software that has spawned the automaker’s emissions crisis.

Volkswagen said Friday that owners can input their Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) into an online database to ascertain the status of their vehicles.

The move comes as Volkswagen is expected to order an official recall for the nearly 500,000 U.S. diesel cars involved in the scandal.

DAVID MCNEW, GETTY IMAGES

Volkswagen emissions repairs could take years to complete.

The 2-liter, 4-cylinder diesel cars affected by the crisis include models ranging from 2009 to 2015.

To find the VIN, customers can reference their owner’s manual.

The database is available at VWdieselinfo.com.

Although a recall is expected, repairs could take years. Older models will be particularly difficult to fix because they will require hardware and software changes.

Volkswagen has yet to propose an official fix to U.S. regulators.

The software causes vehicles to emit nitrogen oxide — which can exacerbate respiratory conditions such as asthma — at rates of up to 40 times U.S. standards. But in regulatory tests, the software makes the vehicles appear compliant.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has said it expects to punish Volkswagen, which is also facing a criminal investigation and many other probes.

Friday, Volkswagen also said that it was hiring a Daimler executive to lead a new post devoted to integrity and legal affairs.

Christine Hohmann-Dennhardt will become a board member for integrity and legal affairs as of Jan. 1.

She has been in an identical role at Daimler, which agreed to terminate her contract early at Volkswagen’s request. She held several positions in Germany’s judicial system before taking the Daimler job.

Chip maker’s ability to rally appears bleak Q: Can AMD survive?

Matt Krantz

mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: The reasons for Advanced Micro Devices to exist continue to dwindle — along with its financial resources. The stock might look cheap, but that’s for a good reason.

Shares of computer chip maker AMD have been decimated. Following another disappointing quarterly loss reported Oct. 15, the stock dropped Friday and is now down 25% over the past 12 months.

AMD shares now trade for about $2 apiece, and the company is clinging to a market value of less than $2 billion. The company is getting clobbered by Intel for chips for desktop systems and by a variety of players in mobile.

The fundamentals are ugly. The company has posted adjusted losses in each of the past three quarters and is expected to lose money for at least the next five quarters, S&P Capital IQ says. This is eating away at the company’s financial firepower. The company gets low scores for its ability to service debt as well as on cash flow, S&P Capital IQ says.

S&P’s Ratings Services grades AMD’s debt at B- with a negative outlook, putting it just clearly in the speculative area, even among junk bonds. AMD does have $755 million in cash and cash equivalents. But that would only last fewer than three years based on the company’s free cash flow.

Investors can do better.

The real problem is technically how DAN PELED, EPA drunk to get with the amount of time I’m on camera.

IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY WHO’S CELEBRATING TODAY?

FIRST PUBLISHED: 1992 WHY THE HOLDUP? R.L.

Stine’s goofy, gory series of more than 60 kids’ horror novels has taken two decades to creep to the big screen. Various screenwriters have come and gone through the years, with Tim Burton at one point attached to produce in the late ’90s.

“They spent all this time trying to figure out which book to dramatize. ‘Which book should we use?’ ‘Which monster should we base the movie on?’ ” Stine told Entertainment Weekly. “And then somebody had this idea ... to put all the monsters in from the early Goosebumps books and to put me in the movie.” That’s the approach Jack the Giant Slayer screenwriter Darren Lemke has taken with Sony’s family adventure, which stars Jack Black as the spooky Stine.

R.L. Stine’s Goosebumps, starring Jack Black, had a few of its own bumps along the way.

Studios weren’t sure Carol, with Rooney Mara and Cate Blanchett, was worth its salt.

Lots of women signed on to play The Danish Girl before Eddie Redmayne got the job.

Production of In the Heart of the Sea, starring Chris Hemsworth, hit some rough waters.

It took Leonardo DiCaprio to breathe new life into Christmas release The Revenant.

CAROL (in select theaters Nov. 20) FIRST PUBLISHED: 1952 WHY THE HOLDUP? Patricia Highsmith’s lesbian romance was a best seller when it published under original title The Price of Salt in the early ’50s, and was later reprinted as Carol.

Highsmith’s friend, playwright Phyllis Nagy, adapted the screenplay more than a decade ago, but the project couldn’t muster interest from studios or filmmakers. “Think about the climate 15 years ago for female-driven films that weren’t comedies,” Nagy told Deadline. “If the film was a buddy comedy, we’d have a much easier time.” Carol picked up steam when it landed at the U.K.’s Number 9 Films and Blanchett signed on four years ago to star and executive produce.

In 2013, the period drama lured director Todd Haynes, who cast Rooney Mara as the twentysomething shop girl who engages Blanchett’s conflicted housewife.

THE DANISH GIRL (in select theaters Nov. 27) FIRST PUBLISHED: 2000 WHY THE HOLDUP? Well before Caitlyn Jenner and Laverne Cox ushered transgender issues into the mainstream, A-listers were being courted to star in this David Ebershoff adaptation, about the first person known to undergo genderreassignment surgery. Nicole Kidman was long attached to star as trans woman Lili Elbe, while actresses Charlize Theron, Gwyneth Paltrow, Marion Cotillard and Rachel Weisz all were set to play her wife, artist Gerda Wegener, but dropped out.

Swedish filmmakers Tomas Alfredson and Lasse Hallström were slated to helm Girl before The King’s Speech director Tom Hooper signed on early last year.

Oscar best-actor winner Eddie Redmayne and Swedish “It” girl Alicia Vikander star as Lili and Gerda, respectively, and both are considered major awards players.

IN THE HEART OF THE SEA (in theaters Dec. 11) FIRST PUBLISHED: 2000 WHY THE HOLDUP? When Nathaniel Philbrick’s historical whaling novel published 15 years ago, the Weinstein Company already was in talks with Barry Levinson (Sleepers) to direct. The project stalled but found its sea legs again in 2012 when Thor’s Chris Hemsworth signed on to star as a sailor whose ship is wrecked after clashing with a sperm whale. (A true story that inspired Herman Melville’s Moby-Dick.) Benedict Cumberbatch, Henry Cavill and Tom Hiddleston all were considered for the film, according to Variety, and Ron Howard came aboard as director in 2013. Initially set for release in March, Heart pushed back to December, which Howard justified to The Hollywood Reporter, saying, “I do feel like it’s more of that fourth quarter, early winter kind of feel in terms of the tone of the movie.”

THE REVENANT (in select theaters Dec. 25) FIRST PUBLISHED: 2002 WHY THE HOLDUP? Leonardo DiCaprio’s grim, gritty turn as a 19th-century fur trapper is arguably this awards season’s biggest question mark, much as Michael Punke’s book was when it was snapped up for a film adaptation. Bought by Warner Bros. in 2001 as an unpublished manuscript, the revenge tale was going to be directed by Oldboy’s Chan-wook Park and star Samuel L. Jackson; and later, Christian Bale, with filmmaker John Hillcoat (The Road), as ScreenRant.com reported in 2010. Birdman’s Oscar-winning director Alejandro González Iñárritu swooped in the next year and DiCaprio officially committed to the project last year — enduring a taxing shoot in remote locations of Canada. A crew member summed up the experience as “a living hell” to The Hollywood Reporter.

Choices improve with age for discarded viewers Old may not be in, but at least it’s no longer completely out.

For years, as advertisers have shifted their focus to young audiences, advertiserNEWS supported media & VIEWS have followed suit — ROBERT pushing older audiBIANCO ences aside in the process. Nor is it just older viewers who have suffered: TV’s perhaps misplaced certainty that young people only want to watch other young people has relegated most actors over 60 to supporting roles.

But along with its other benefits, the explosive growth in TV choices is giving new hope to aging viewers, as TV services begin to see some profit possibility in serving a neglected audience. It’s a small movement at the moment, and it doesn’t encompass the big broadcast networks. But if you’re past a certain age, any

movement at all is welcome.

PBS has long served as an oldfolks home, but it’s not the only place to turn. Older viewers searching for some sign of change could find one at Starz with Blunt Talk, a comedy built around 75year-old Patrick Stewart. An even clearer sign was Netflix’s pickup of a new season for Longmire, a series dumped by A&E because its audience was considered too old.

Not its star, though: Robert Taylor is a relative child at 52.

Sunday, the scene shifts to Jesse Stone: Lost in Paradise (9 ET/ PT), starring 70-year-old Tom Selleck — whose starring role in CBS’ Blue Bloods makes him a broadcast rarity. But you won’t find Jesse on CBS, which did eight Jesse movies and then bailed because, well, you know. Instead, Selleck has moved the franchise to Hallmark.

Though that’s progress, it’s not

CHRIS REARDON, CROWN MEDIA

At age 70, Tom Selleck’s starring turn in Blue Bloods is a rarity on broadcast TV. He next tackles a new Jesse Stone movie on Hallmark.

enough — not when you consider the talent going to waste just in this new TV season alone. It’s impossible to watch Life in Pieces and not conclude that the pieces could be reduced to two: Dianne Wiest and James Brolin. Limitless actors Ron Rifkin and Blair Brown deserve the kind of limitless air time this show will never provide.

And just when you think things may be improving, word comes that CBS is considering a series built around a “young” Miss Marple — and never mind that the experience and invisibility that come with age are what made this beloved Agatha Christie character make sense as a detective. On the other hand, CBS apparently also is considering an “older” version of Nancy Drew — who, by my math, should be around 100 now.

Don’t panic, CBS. We’ll settle for 70.

KANSAS CITY’S ALCIDES ESCOBAR CELEBRATES after scoring in a 5-0 victory over Toronto in the ALCS opener Friday at Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri.

Raiders showing respect for KU

By Matt Tait

Kansas City, Mo. — Edinson Volquez planned to pitch the Toronto Blue Jays inside in Game 1 of their American League Championship Series, just as he did during their contentious series earlier this season.

Then, after chatting with Kansas City Royals catcher Salvador Perez, he changed his mind.

“We know they got a lot of pull hitters over there, and power hitters, and he told me, ‘How you feel pitching down and away?’

And I said, ‘I feel sexy tonight,’” Volquez recalled.

“And he was like, ‘All right, we’re changing the plan right now. We’re pitching those guys away.’”

They never touched him all night.

Volquez combined with three relievers on a threehitter, Perez hit a soaring home run off Toronto starter Marco Estrada, and Kansas City rolled to a 5-0 victory Friday to open the best-of-seven series.

“Tonight was the Volquez show. He was tremendous,” Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said. “He shut down a

good-hitting team, I know that. His ball was ducking and darting everywhere.”

Volquez (1-1) ramped up his fastball to 97 mph to slice through a potent Blue Jays offense, never allowing a runner past second base over six innings. His only trouble occurred when he walked the first two batters in the sixth, but he wiggled out of it without any damage.

The Royals’ bullpen finished off the club’s eighth consecutive ALCS victory.

“There was a lot of energy,” said Volquez, who had Please see ROYALS, page 6C

“I think we’re talking about starting the second half of our season the right way,” Kingsbury said. “And that’s been our focus. You look to last year, when TCU went on the road to Kansas, and Kansas almost got them there. So it’s great to point out that it is a good football team that’s well-coached, and they had a tough run, but they’re getting better.

They have young players.

So we just need to continue to get better ourselves.”

While Tech’s offense, which threw up a schoolrecord 776 yards last week against Iowa State, is rolling, it’s the defense that has Kingsbury hammering home the importance of being focused from start to finish.

Tech enters today giving up an average of 40 points per game. And even though KU (0-5) is averaging just 19 per contest, TTU defensive coordinator David Gibbs said true freshman QB Ryan Willis has what it takes to put up points in a hurry. “(Their) freshman quarterback looked pretty good to me,” Gibbs said. “Did not look intimidated by Baylor, so we’ve got our hands full again. ...

FREE STATE’S SAM SKWARLO, CENTER, SLIPS PAST WASHBURN RURAL’S BRAEDEN INGOLD during the Firebirds’ 35-7 victory Friday night in Topeka.

Skwarlo’s scoring spree sparks Firebirds

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

Topeka — When Free State High senior running back Sam Skwarlo found open space against Washburn Rural on Friday, he couldn’t be stopped.

Skwarlo rushed for 256 yards and five touchdowns to lead the Firebirds to a 35-7 victory at Bowen-Glaze Stadium in their first district game.

It was one of the most dominant performances in school history. Skwarlo finished two yards short of tying the single-game school record set by Camren Torneden in 2008, and it was the first 200yard game since Kyle McFarland ran for 202 yards in 2011.

On the fourth play from scrimmage, the 6-foot, 210-pound Skwarlo took an option pitch and raced 58 yards to the end zone.

“He’s got speed, plus the

fact he’s pretty intimidating to tackle,” FSHS coach Bob Lisher said. “He’s a pretty strong kid. Once you hit him once, sometimes you don’t want to hit him again.”

After Skwarlo was stopped on a fourth-and-short at midfield in the first quarter, he took his first handoff of the second quarter up the middle and bounced to the left sideline for a 56-yard touchdown.

Later in the second quarter, Skwarlo added a 54-yard

touchdown run on another option pitch and finished a nine-play drive before halftime with a two-yard touchdown plunge. Free State coaches noticed a tendency

by Washburn Rural to blitz on the weak side of the field, so Skwarlo took advantage on quick option-pitches to the outside, running untouched to the end zone.

Olathe — The sun set, the bleachers at College Boulevard Activity Center emptied, and Free State High’s doubles team of Rachel Walters and Andrea Chen kept on fighting to extend their stay at the Class 6A state tournament Friday night.

Hours after their first match began, the Firebirds and their opponents, Blue

Valley’s Lizzy Meizenbach and Mallory Novicoff, were the only competitors still playing at the 12-court complex as the first day wrapped, and Walters and Chen attempted to join teammates Caitlin and Ali Dodd in today’s medal matches.

But a slow start to their fourth state match proved costly in a 9-3, season-ending setback for Free State’s No. 2 doubles team.

Chen, a junior, said she

and senior Walters joked about winning the whole shebang, but really their goal was to get to Day 2.

“We just made some mistakes that we shouldn’t have in the beginning,” Chen said of their final loss, which made them 2-2 at state, “and it’s really hard to get out of that, mentally.”

Diallo named to Abdul-Jabbar watch list

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Kansas University freshman Cheick Diallo has been named to the 20-member watch list for the 2016 Kareem Abdul-Jabbar Center of the Year Award, the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame announced Friday.

Diallo, a 6-foot-9, 220-pounder from Mali, enters college as the No. 5-rated player in the recruiting Class of 2015 by Rivals.com.

He averaged 17.6 points, 10.5 rebounds and 2.5 blocks per game during his senior season at Our Savior New American High of Centereach, New York, and was named MVP of the McDonald’s

All-America game and Jordan Brand Classic.

Other players up for the award are Kaleb Tarczewski, Arizona; Mamadou Ndiaye, UC Irvine; Josh Scott, Colorado; Egidijus Mockevicius, Evansville; Przemek Karnowski, Gonzaga; Thomas Bryant, Indiana; Jameel McKay, Iowa State; Skal Labissiere, Kentucky; Diamond Stone, Maryland; Stephen Zimmerman, UNLV; Kennedy Meeks, North Carolina; Zach Auguste, Notre Dame; AJ Hammons, Purdue; Jakob Poeltl, Utah; Damian Jones, Vanderbilt; Daniel Ochefu, Villanova; Josh Hawkinson, Washington State; Joel Bolomboy, Weber State; and Devin Williams, West Virginia.

Sports Illustrated has Gilbert last year. He has

sources that say “some people in Philadelphia’s front office wonder whether a second surgery (on same foot this past summer) would have been necessary if Embiid had worn a boot as much as he was told to.�

Also, despite the Sixers front office not wanting Embiid to travel to Las Vegas to watch the Sixers play in the NBA summer league, S.I. reports, “Embiid was determined to go to Vegas to party for the balance of the 10 days of summer league. While Embiid was in Vegas, he was mandated to wear the walking boot in advance of the second surgery, but Embiid not only refused to wear the boot, but he carried himself as if nothing was wrong with the foot,

shooting jumpers and even occasionally dunking. These actions have given rise to the theory that Embiid actually rebroke his foot, rather than the initial injury not healing properly. It also led to Embiid having the surgery a month later than the club originally had hoped.�

S.I. also has sources saying, “Embiid’s conditioning and dietary habits are a constant source of strife for the Sixers front office.� And, the magazine website, SI.com, says he was sent home from a road trip last year for reportedly physically threatening a member of the training staff.

Walters said the Firebirds, who had led that match 6-3, got through some stressful moments in that one. “We just had to keep our energy up,� she said, “and once we got going, we had to keep fighting.�

Sisters and Free State doubles partners Caitlin and Ali Dodd survived the first day, with a bye, a victory and a loss. They’ll be right back at it today, beginning at 9 a.m.

Friday marked the end of the line for Betsy Smoot and Natalie Cote, of Lawrence High, who won their first match before finishing 1-2.

It looked as if the Lions were in for a swift exit on the consolation side of the bracket, down 4-0, to Lindsey Wagaman and Olivia Taylor, of Washburn Rural. But Smoot and Cote came storming back before a 9-7 loss ended their season. “We pushed back,� said Cote, a junior, “which is all you can really ask for.�

you,� said Likens of Texas Tech. “Baylor was a little different. Baylor just lines up and says, ‘This is what I’m doing, come get me.’�

Likens said Tech’s smorgasbord of styles defensively made for a much more extensive week of preparation for Willis and him in the film room and on the practice field. “Oh yeah,� Likens said. “It’s not easy at all. They vary their fronts, guys standing up, in a three-

Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — In the days after Adrian Peterson tore the ligaments in his left knee in a game against Washington, Chiefs running back Jamaal Charles reached out to him with encouragement.

Charles was already going through rehab for the same injury sustained earlier that season.

Now, four years later, Peterson is returning the favor.

The Vikings running back said this week he will invite Charles to work out with him in the offseason — both are native Texans who return home during the summer. The idea is that he could help push Charles through rehab after his second torn ACL sustained last Sunday. “I hate for him to go down like that, my guy go down,� said Peterson, whose Vikings host the Chiefs on Sunday. “He’s been through it before with his left knee and now he knows what to expect doing his rehab.

That’s one positive.�

Charles tore the ACL in his right knee early in the 2011 season, while Peterson was hurt in December. Both of them were back on the field by the start of the next season.

Still, there are no guarantees with such a devastating injury, particularly to a running back whose speed is his biggest asset.

While Charles was able to overcome his first torn ligament, the surgery and rehab required four years later may not leave him the same player as before. “I would caution you in trying to compare the last injury to this one, and who’s made it back and how fast they made it

back,� Chiefs trainer Rick Burkholder said.

The Chiefs already have spoken with noted orthopedist Dr. James Andrews, who performed the surgery on Charles four years ago. Andrews likely will handle this procedure as well. “It looks like he’s leaning that way, going down there to have it done,� Burkholder said. “(Charles) has already been through some rehab sessions here to get ready.�

Charles was hurt early in the third quarter of Sunday’s loss to Chicago, when he made a jump cut and his right knee buckled. He immediately reached for his right knee, and never put weight on it as he was helped off the field. The Chiefs confirmed the torn ACL after an MRI on Monday.

The injury not only deprives the Chiefs (1-4) of their biggest playmaker, but also the most consistent performer on an inconsistent offense.

Charles averages more than five yards per carry, and his ability to loosen up defenses is helpful to quarterback Alex Smith, who has yet to prove that he can carry the Chiefs on the strength of his right arm.

The Chiefs worked out several running backs, including former Texans rusher Ben Tate, but decided to elevate Spencer Ware from the practice squad. The former LSU standout will be part of a running back-by-committee approach with Knile Davis and Charcandrick West. “They all need to work together and do their thing,�

Chiefs coach Andy Reid said.

point stance, sometimes the same guy. And they’ll give you more secondary looks than what Baylor did.�

Series history Texas Tech is 15-1 all-time against the Jayhawks, including 6-0 in games played in Lawrence.

Kansas’ lone victory in the series came in 2001, when the Jayhawks outlasted the Red Raiders, 34-31 in overtime in Lubbock, Texas.

Tech favored Another week brings another huge point spread for a Kansas football game, as the Red Raiders enter today’s game favored by 32.5 points.

The line opened at Texas Tech -27 and, like last week when Baylor opened at -38 and settled at -46 by kickoff, the spread quickly shot up with most of the action coming in on Tech to cover the four-touchdown total.

Linebackers have to show up

With the loss of defensive tackle Jacky Dezir Kansas offensive coordinator Rob Likens to injury, the Jayhawks are down to three interior said the Texas Tech defense likes to move defensive linemen who have played significant around to disguise coverages and blitzes and snaps.

Unlike a week ago against particularly difficult against one of the nation’s Baylor, which pretty much lined up in the same fastest-moving, most high-powered offenses. defense and basically said, ‘Here we are, come The Red Raiders average 80 plays per game and and get us,’ the Red Raiders’ look will be more will snap the ball quickly.

— Matt Tait

Grant, a 5-foot-7, 168-pound senior from Mesquite, Texas, is the definition of a multi-use weapon. Through six games this season, the Red Raiders wideout has scored a touchdown in four ways. He enters today’s game with 648 receiving yards and four touchdown grabs on 44 receptions and 1,049 all-purpose yards, which ranks sixth in the country. In addition to his four TDs through the air, Grant also has thrown for a touchdown, run for a touchdown and scored a TD on a kickoff return, where he averages 26.3 yards per return and ranks fifth in the nation. No matter where he is on the field, when Grant touches the ball, the Red Raiders average 16.9 yards per play, so it’ll be up to the Kansas defense and special teams, at all levels, to use a gang mentality to try to bottle up Tech’s dynamic play-maker.

TEXAS TECH RED RAIDERS (4-2, 1-2)

Y Ian Sadler 5-10, 198, Soph.

Brad Pearson 6-2, 211, Sr.

The Jayhawks are averaging just over 3 yards per play on first down, and Likens believes that number has to improve drastically in order to help KU finish more drives. In addition to its troubles on first down, Kansas has struggled on third-and-short as well, another area that makes finishing drives difficult.

Likens said he was generally pleased with his team’s play on third-and-long and on second down. But the Jayhawks have not scored more than 14 points in the past three weeks. If they hope to climb above that number today, against a Texas Tech defense that surrenders 40 points per game to opponents, they’re going to have to find ways to jumpstart drives and convert short third and fourth downs.

5 QUESTIONS WITH OL JORDAN SHELLEY-SMITH

1

Coach Beaty had no problem saying that Texas Tech head coach Kliff Kingsbury is a “good-looking dude.” What do you think of Kingsbury’s Hollywood image?

I’ve got no say on it. I met him at Big 12 media days. He’s a great guy and a great coach, and I’ve heard a lot of good things about him in the world of football, and I’ve got the utmost respect for him.

2

Speaking of Hollywood, what’s the best football movie of all-time?

Oh, “Friday Night Lights,” no question about it. No question. It’s Texas high school football, baby! You can’t beat it.

3

What does the KU offense need to do to start finishing more drives and scoring more points?

Establish the run game. You know, the run game sets up everything. We’ve taken it upon ourselves as an offensive line that we need to do better in that regard, and we’ve really challenged each other to get back to doing what we do best. We want nothing more than our running backs to have 100yard games.

4

With true freshman Ryan Willis starting the first game of his career last week — and making start No. 2 today — did the O-line put more of an emphasis on protecting him?

All of the time as an offensive line, you want the guy behind you to be safe. For me, as well as a bunch of other linemen on this team, every time that guy gets hit, it hits you hard, and you think, “That’s my dude.

I can’t let that happen. That’s on me.”

You immediately re-evaluate what you did. No matter what age or who it is back there, you want to protect

him and make sure he doesn’t take any unnecessary hits.

5

As an offensive lineman, what’s the worst thing that can happen out there?

A hold, a false start, giving up a sack, something along those lines?

Jayhawk pulse Another week brings another high-powered Big 12 offense to face the winless Jayhawks, but you would never know that these guys are struggling this season from watching them at practice.

Credit KU coach David Beaty and his staff for keeping their spirits up and emphasizing that it’s not about the result on the scoreboard this season, rather the improvement they make from rep to rep, day to day and week to week. Finding an argument for a KU victory the rest of the way is tough to do, but it becomes even tougher when considering the number of significant injuries that have plagued this team already.

Tale of the Tape TTU . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Kansas

KU run game vs. TTU run D

For me, personally, as the left tackle, it’s your quarterback getting hurt.

That’s by far the worst. You have nightmares about it, and you don’t ever want that to happen no matter what level you’re talking about.

An active home with plenty of room would be ideal. A big couch for lounging (for her) would be a plus. She needs to be the pet in house. Come fees are waived for meet her today.

pets of the week!

bearcat

Not all cats are lap cats.

Bearcat is a friendly guy, but prefers to have his paws on solid ground.

Unless of course he is the one doing the climbing. He is 2 years old and is a Domestic Short Hair with orange tabby markings. He has an independent attitude, so you won’t have to worry about him being too clingy. He might enjoy being on his own while you are away for the day.

tamba

Even at 11 months, Tamba has learned the best way to be a great ambassador for his breed is by example. He is a polite little Pit Bull Terrier mix and has big hopes of helping people see that he is like many other dogs looking for a home. He wants to learn and be able to be his best, but his new family needs to help make that happen. Come meet this impressive little man today.

SamueL

Samuel likes his naps, but he also likes some snuggles and playtime.

He is a 3 year old Domestic Short Hair with orange and white tiger markings. He came in as a stray, so he would probably enjoy some house time to relax and be comfy. Something tells me this young man would be appreciative of a sunny window to nap in and maybe a big chair to watch some football. Come meet him today.

Gomer

Gomer is a sweet 2 year old Pit Bull mix who has personality plus. As with many of the dogs he has a lengthy story, but the bottom line is, he needs a forever home. He loves to play tug. You name the toy and he will figure out a way to play with it. Imagine waking up every morning to this happy face. It doesn’t get much better than that. See you soon.

FiLa

Fila reminds me a little of Marilyn Monroe.

Not only because she is beautiful and has a cute little birthmark, but also because of her personality. She can be soft and sweet when she wants, but can also be a strong and independent lady. She is a 1 year old Domestic Short Hair with a mostly white coat and grey tiger markings. She is one of many wonderful cats available here at the shelter.

aStra

Astra came to Lawrence with the idea of making lots of new friends. (she’s very good at it) She is a good hearted 1 year old Hound mix with a black and tan coat.

roxy

Roxy has a long history of being a good dog. She is a 6 year old German Shorthaired Pointer. Her desire to please is one of the things that make her who she is. She knows many commands and enjoys being with her people, but does okay on her own. Not all dogs are meant to be in families with children. Roxy prefers adult companionship and she should do well with another dog. Cats might be a “no” also.

Subaru

Subaru is an adorable all black 8 month old Labrador Retriever mix.

It’s the mix part that gets confusing. He has a wiry coat, so your guess is probably as good as ours.

He will need some puppy training and still needs to work on his leash skills, but you won’t find a more agreeable fellow. The sooner you come meet him, the sooner you can get started on being best friends. See you soon.

remuS

Remus is only 1 year old and is a handsome little Chihuahua mix. He has made huge strides since coming here. Needless to say, the shelter can be an overwhelming experience for some of the animals.

He is doing his best to fit in and seems to be eager to be in the company of people. Children would likely be too much for him, but a loving lap might be just the right fit, especially if you have hot dogs.

No. 3-ranked WVU rips KU soccer, 6-0 J-W Staff Reports

Morgantown, W. Va. — No. 3-ranked West Virginia scored two goals in the first 20 minutes and cruised to a 6-0 Big 12 soccer rout of Kansas University on Friday at Dick Dlesk Stadium.

WVU (13-1-1, 4-0-1) extended its unbeaten

streak to 13 games. Kansas (8-6-1, 3-2-0) suffered its worst league loss since a 6-0 loss to Missouri on Oct. 31, 2008.

“West Virginia is a very good team, but to be honest, I thought we made it very easy on them tonight,” KU coach Mark Francis said. “We created some chances tonight,

but we have to be better.

We need to move past this one, though. We still have a lot to play for. We have three big games left, so we need to regroup.”

West Virginia scored the only goal it would need less than four minutes into the match when a shot from senior forward Kailey Utley was deflected to

the back of the KU net by a Jayhawk defender. The Utley goal brought the Kansas opponent scoreless streak to an end at 307 minutes, the 10th-longest streak in program history.

The Mountaineers built upon their lead less than 15 minutes later. Junior Ashley Lawrence beat the Kansas defense

to a long through ball to the center of the Jayhawk penalty area. Lawrence used a light toe poke to redirect it passed KU goalkeeper Maddie Dobyns for West Virginia’s second goal of the night. The score marked just the fourth time Kansas has allowed multiple goals this season.

The Jayhawks were outshot in the match 2310 and managed to get just three shots on goal, their lowest total of the season.

Freshman Parker Roberts led KU with three shots on the night.

Kansas will play Friday at Texas Tech and Sunday at Oklahoma State.

through and made some big blocks,” Skwarlo said.

“Like coach always says, ‘You have to get downhill and good things will happen.’”

When Skwarlo wasn’t running for long touchdowns, he was driving his shoulders into tacklers and picking up several yards on each play.

Skwarlo, who missed all but one game last year with a Lisfranc injury in his foot, had 231 of his 256 yards in the first half.

“A lot of well-set edges by our tackles,” FSHS senior center Garrett Swisher said. “Good movement upfield by our guards.

Had a couple spots there where we didn’t keep our feet, didn’t make the right blocks. But a lot of it comes from our backfield, Sam and Bryce (Torneden) going 100 percent every play.”

Free State’s defense was just as dominant as Skwarlo’s running abilities in the first half. The Firebirds allowed only 38 yards in the first two quarters, forcing six straight three-and-out punts.

On the defensive line, seniors Jalen Galloway and Darian Lewis

the end of the third quarter, and it set up Skwarlo for a 10-yard touchdown run, giving the Firebirds a 35-0 lead.

But the Firebirds (3-3) were disappointed when they failed to secure their first shutout since 2012 by allowing a touchdown in the fourth quarter. After the Junior Blues (5-2) ran down the field with long runs by running backs Ben Harrison and Khalfani Scroggins, quarterback Mitchell Schurig found receiver Jovon Hall with a 20-yard fade pass in the end zone.

“We were playing good defense,” Lisher said.

“They hadn’t done anything against us all night.

Then in the fourth quarter we got a little bit tired, we got a little complacent and let them punch it in on us. That’s not something that we can allow to happen, especially in district play when the state puts the 21-point rule in there. We have to guard that.”

The late touchdown left the Firebirds with a sour taste, but they couldn’t complain about their four-game win streak.

“Coach (Spencer) Bonner actually told us, ‘Winning is contagious,’ and that’s definitely been the case for us,” Swisher said. “Hopefully it continues.”

Eudora 46, Ottawa 8 Eudora — Austin Downing ran for three touchdowns and caught one TD pass in Eudora’s victory over Ottawa on Friday night in high school football.

Downing, who gained 123 yards on 14 carries, ran for scores of 57, three and five yards and caught a 17-yard TD pass from Grant Elston.

Elson also scored on a one-yard run, Lee Andrews scored on a 10-yard run, and Austin Ormsby scored on a 25-yard fumble return.

Eudora (4-3) will play Friday at De Soto.

Volquez was right in the thick of things.

The veteran starter kept pitching the Blue Jays inside, finally hitting Josh Donaldson with a fastball. Tensions escalated as the game went on, with Toronto reliever Aaron Sanchez returning the favor by hitting Escobar to trigger the first of two benches-clearing scuffles.

Afterward, Volquez said Donaldson was “crying like a baby” over his inside approach.

AGENT SPOTLIGHT

What are the top 3 things that separate you from your competition?

REALTOR© CRS, ABR, GRI, e-Pro

The beauty about this industry is that all agents work a little differently. I would say my top 3 strengths are communication, organization/ focus, and that I am service-oriented.

785-766-4666 Sarah@SarahDreiling.com

What is one tip you have for someone looking to buy or sell a home?

Sarah Dreiling

My answer isn’t novel, but I believe engaging the services of a full-time, professional Realtor® is the best way to position yourself for success in any market.

W

here did you grow up?

I am a native Lawrencian, so I was born and raised right here!

What area do you live in now? What do you like most about it?

I live near Free State High School in a small subdivision that really functions like its own little community. We know each other’s names, kids and even pets.

What do you enjoy doing when you’re not working?

I’m an alumna of KU, so anything related to KU athletics, rock climbing, riding motorcycles, hiking, fire pitting and tailgating at Royals games.

How long have you worked in Real Estate?

Eight wonderful years.

What did you do before that?

I was a student at the University of Kansas and earned a double major in Political Science and Communication Studies.

What is your specialty?

Exceptional client service.

What do you see in the future for real estate sales/prices?

What designations do you have and what does that mean for the people you work with?

There are so many types of real estate from condos to single family homes, new construction to properties built in the early 1900’s, residences close to the university and those scattered around the outskirts of Lawrence. The question about prices is really too general to be answered in a sentence or two.

I have earned my CRS, ABR, GRI, and e-Pro certifications. This industry is ever-changing and I believe my willingness to continue to learn and educate myself is an asset.

What is the most challenging/gratifying aspect of what you do?

The hours can be inconvenient for keeping up a social life and I often need to cancel plans at the last minute. However, being able to truly be of service to people, while they make what is usually the largest financial investment of their lives, is extremely rewarding.

What is the most unusual thing you’ve encountered while working in Real Estate?

Why should someone choose you as their real estate agent?

To quote some of my past clients, “I honestly do not know if we have ever dealt with someone as knowledgeable, efficient, professional and friendly as Miss Dreiling.”

Cheryl & Duane Cox

The most unusual things I have encountered in my business are not really fit for print!

What is the most unique property you’ve listed or sold?

I assisted a Buyer with purchasing a pretty unique home on the golf course a couple of years ago.

He has since completely gutted it and turned it into an amazing showpiece. I’ll be anxious to help him resell it down the road because it is a one-ofa-kind space!

Superstitions hard to shed for Cubs fans Chicago (ap) — Billy Siegel doesn’t want to hear any talk about a billy goat curse or a Steve Bartman hex afflicting his beloved Chicago Cubs. He dismisses as rubbish any suggestion that a little black cat had anything to do with the team’s heartbreaking collapse down the stretch in 1969, too.

But when Kyle Schwarber hit a home run the other night at Wrigley Field that helped vanquish the hated St. Louis Cardinals, Siegel found it impossible not to see divine providence at work.

After all, the ball landed on a videoboard advertising a beer synonymous with St. Louis — and it didn’t come down.

“Look at that ball that hit the Budweiser sign,” said the 67-year-old Sie-

gel, a season ticket holder since 1970. “Oh my god, that was a sign.”

The Cubs will meet the Mets at 7:07 tonight in New York in Game 1 of the National League Championship Series.

Cubs fans can insist all they want that they are done with talk of curses and just plain bad luck, from goats to cats to Bartman. But this is not an easy habit to break for the devoted faithful of a team that has not won a World Series since 1908.

Heartbreak and superstition are as much a part of Cubs lore as Wrigley Field itself.

As the Cubs take on the New York Mets in the hopes of getting to the World Series for the first time since 1945, fans swear that this team is dif-

ferent from all the teams that have tried and failed before. This team will win — and they will, fans will tell you — because of the way they play and not because a curse was lifted or just ran out of steam.

“I am so sick of billy goats, sick of Bartman, it’s all a bunch of baloney,” said Jim Kelly, a 62-yearold substitute teacher.

For some, it’s just different rooting for a team that is so young the players have no connection to past failures.

These fans seem willing to thumb their noses at those who worry about, say, jinxing the team by celebrating before a victory is secure.

“I was in Pittsburgh (for the wild card victory against the Pirates) and I got criticized be-

cause I was on Twitter saying there are 6 outs to go, 5 outs to go,” said Al Yellon, who runs a Cubs fan site, bleedcubbieblue. com. “But I was saying, no, we’re not going to be slaves to history.”

Still, to be safe ...

“I have a Jake Arrieta game-worn jersey that seems to be lucky,” Yellon said. “I wear that jersey every time he pitches.”

Years of watching a team snatch defeat from the jaws of victory have made it impossible for some other fans to shake the idea that if something bad can happen to the Cubs, it will.

“There’s no real curse,” said Steve Rhodes, a longtime fan who runs beachwoodreporter.com.

“At the same time, (stuff)

happens to this team that doesn’t happen to anyone else.”

While Rhodes wonders if Schwarber’s next home run might be blown back into play by “a gust of wind,” these Cubs have already exorcised the demons that are the Cardinals, at least for one year.

Fans wonder if they can now exact revenge on the Mets, the team that overtook the Cubs in 1969 not long after a black cat strolled by Cubs third baseman Ron Santo at Shea Stadium.

“I think it would be fitting to go through the Mets after what happened in ’69,” said Jeff Santo, a son of the late Cubs great.

For their part, the Cubs are staying far away from all this talk. They have

not, for example, invited Bartman back to Wrigley as a guest of honor — a gesture some fans have suggested would be appropriate for someone vilified after he deflected a foul ball just before the Cubs collapsed in the 2003 playoffs.

It is pretty much the same story with the goat.

Seventy years after the owner of the Billy Goat Tavern put a curse on the Cubs when they wouldn’t let his pet goat attend the World Series, the tavern owners have asked the Cubs to let a goat back into Wrigley for a postseason game. On its blog, the Billy Goat reminds the team that the last time it refused to sell a ticket to a goat was in 2003 and everyone knows what happened then.
