A WORKER SMOOTHS OUT NEW PAVEMENT Thursday for the path between Burcham and Constant parks, near the Kansas River.

Last month, city commissioners approved a request from the Lawrence Parks and Recreation Department for an additional $78,650 to lay concrete over the entire trail. It was originally proposed that the path be two-thirds asphalt and one-third concrete, but after a wet summer, the department decided asphalt wouldn’t hold up. The new concrete path will connect to the paved Outside for a Better Inside Trail in Sandra J. Shaw Community Health Park, making it possible to walk along the Kansas River on a paved surface from Lawrence Memorial Hospital to City Hall.

Frank Boswell, partowner of Lawrence’s now-closed Club Magic nightclub, 804 W. 24th St., was federally indicted on human sex trafficking charges Wednesday, U.S. Attorney Barry Grissom said COURTS Friday.

Boswell, 41, of Topeka, is accused of forcing women and a 17-year-old girl to perform sexual acts on clients in Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, Iowa, Arkansas, Tennessee and Texas for financial gain. Boswell allegedly recruited women “who needed money and

Boswell is charged with conspiracy to commit sex trafficking; conspiracy to operate an interstate prostitution business; sex trafficking of a minor; transporting a person from Kansas to Nebraska for prostitution; enticing a person to travel from Kansas to Nebraska for prostitution; transporting a minor from Kansas to Missouri for prostitution; and three counts of using a phone in furtherance of an interstate prostitution business.

LAWRENCE

ArtWalk returns this weekend

T

he Lawrence ArtWalk, the longstanding tradition in the Lawrence arts community that was at risk of disappearing last year, is now back on its feet, thanks to one veteran participant.

The 20th annual event, which takes guests inside the workspaces of Douglas County artists, will take place from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. today and from noon to 6 p.m. Sunday.

Ceramicist and new ArtWalk director Anne Egitto is optimistic about this year’s tour, which features more than 30 locally, regionally and internationally recognized visual artists.

When former ArtWalk director John Wysocki moved back to his native London last year, Egitto and other area artists organized the DIY ArtWalk in his place.

“I think overall people just had less traffic in their studios because less people knew about the event,” Egitto says of the 2014 tour. “We had organized it sort of last-minute, so it wasn’t as well-publicized and it wasn’t the event that it has been in the past.”

This year marks a return to form for ArtWalk, says Egitto, who launched a retooling of the ArtWalk website as well as increased social media presence.

Approximately onethird of the artists on this year’s roster are new to the tour, which will include everything from painting, drawing and printmaking to photography, ceramics and blown glass.

Several artists are hosting additional receptions and demonstrations.

Unless other significant changes are proposed later, this will be the only instance the project will come before city commissioners, said Amy Miller, the city’s assistant director of planning.

“There will have to be a final development plan, but if the commission approves the preliminary plan and the final is the same or not substantially different, it can be approved administratively,” Miller said.

The plan was proposed by a local group led by Lawrence businessman Thomas Fritzel, who has reached a deal to purchase the golf course and country club contingent on winning approval to construct additional residences and amenities surrounding the course.

Miller said the City Commission will be asked to consider Tuesday three items related to the project: rezoning approximately 51 acres from single-dwelling residential to multi-dwelling residential; approving a special-use permit to allow for the construction of the recreation area; and approving the plan itself.

The Lawrence-Douglas County Planning Commission previously has recommended all three items for approval.

The latest proposal leaves about 20 acres of the Alvamar area unplanned. With the zoning designation of multidwelling residential, that space could allow for up to 1,198 more units in the future, according to a city staff report prepared for the project.

Any future development plans for those sites would be required to go through a public process and City Com-

mission approval.

An earlier proposal included turning about 17 acres south of the new clubhouse into an assisted- and independentliving area comprising 124 units. That development was removed from the application and is not being considered by the commission Tuesday.

The most recent development plans have elicited letters of support and opposition from residents who live near the golf courses.

Some residents raised concerns about increased traffic on Bob Billings Parkway, with people coming in and out of the new nine-building apartment complex. Two residents wrote letters to the city, noting they were already concerned about traffic with the construction of a new interchange at Kansas Highway 10 and Bob Billings.

The plans include the construction of a new public street coming south off Bob Billings, west of Crossgate Drive.

It would be the northern entrance to the country club and a route for residents of the new apartment buildings.

According to a city report, planning staff recommended that street be constructed before any other development begins. An expected timeline for the project has not yet been set.

Other concerns from residents centered on the increased residential density.

The nine proposed apartment buildings would house 292 units with a total of 422 bedrooms and 544 parking spaces. It breaks down to slightly more than 18 dwellings per acre.

The maximum number of units allowed for that type of zoning district is 384, or 24 per acre.

The new development will be significantly more dense than the surrounding area. Quail’s Nest at

year’s ArtWalk postcard. Chosen by her ArtWalk peers for the honor, Flanders paints “en plein air” (a French expression that means “in the open air”) and is informed by nature and the technical aspects of oil painting.

“Jane is just a wonderful artist,” Egitto says of her pal, who takes up quite a bit of wall space at Egitto’s home. “I always joke that it’s the Jane Flanders gallery at my house.” Guide maps for ArtWalk can be picked up at various locations around town, including the Lawrence Arts Center, Z’s Divine Espresso 23rd Street location and Free State Brewing Co. For more information, including a full roster of participating artists and an online guide map, visit lawrenceartwalk.org.

— This is an excerpt from Joanna Hlavacek’s “Out & About” column, which appears on LJWorld.com.

Alvamar, a neighborhood south of the existing clubhouse, has a density of four dwellings per acre.

Woodfield Meadows, off Crossgate Drive just north of where the apartments would be located, is five dwellings per acre, and development near Crossgate Drive and Greenbrier Drive is four per acre, according to city figures.

According to a city report, there will be two smaller apartment buildings — each two-story comprising eight units — located at the north end of the complex “as a transition between the existing development to the north and the larger multi-story buildings to the south.”

The city also received several letters of support from area residents, saying it would be an opportunity to help the area thrive.

“If this plan does not materialize, I believe the whole Alvamar group of golf, dining, swimming and tennis facilities will be in serious risk of going downhill for lack of monetary support, leading to a future for the whole area much less desirable than this plan,” wrote resident Dave Rueschhoff.

Another area resident, Joy Carmona, said she and her husband chose to build a home in Lawrence after moving from St. Paul, Minn., partly because of the golf course.

She noted the project could bring more people, and tax dollars, to the city.

A representative of the development group did not return a call seeking comment on this story.

Assault CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

“The hurdles of Title IX litigation are ridiculously high.”

In recent years, KU’s annual Law Review Symposium has focused on topics including human migration, drought and the state of arbitration law. This year’s theme was a closer-to-home subject for many at KU and other universities: Sexual Assault on Campus.

Yung was joined by law and legal studies professors from six other universities nationwide who delivered talks on the subject — and sparked lively academic discourse — at the KU School of Law. Chrissy Heikkila, executive director of the Sexual Trauma and Abuse Care Center (formerly GaDuGi), also presented.

Title IX is the federal law prohibiting genderbased discrimination in education. The law defines sexual assault as a type of sexual harassment and sexual harassment as a type of sexual discrimination.

Yung specializes in criminal law and sex crimes and was a member of the KU Sexual Assault Task Force, which met throughout last year.

In his presentation, “The Title IX Mistake,” Yung cited concerns with using Title IX to investigate and adjudicate complaints of campus sexual assault.

For one, Title IX views sexual assault through the lens of civil rights when it’s really a safety issue, he said. While typi-

cal sexual discrimination cases make sense to view as civil rights issues, the act of rape doesn’t.

Yung also said he’s worried Title IX may not technically apply to victims of same-sex sexual assault, because it could be hard to show they were targeted specifically because of their gender.

Title IX creates a “compliance culture” at universities, and that’s not necessarily the most understandable or helpful for students, Yung said.

He said the emphasis becomes on investigations rather than advocacy.

Instead of Title IX, Congress should turn to a uniform student safety code for universities, Yung said.

Even though the criminal justice system may take a long time, such a code would be sufficient to kick a perpetrator off campus — or otherwise discipline them — if a preponderance of evidence showed they are a safety threat. Yung said that would apply to everything from murder to robbery to rape.

Such a code might help “unpack” longstanding cultural and gender baggage associated with rape so the focus could be on safety, he said.

Symposium attendees rebutted, questioning whether most campus rapists are really serial rapists, whether such a system would result in unfair discipline or whether there would be racial and economic disparities in those affected.

For now, Title IX is the “best vehicle that’s currently available” for universities to deal with sexual assault, Yung said, but he believes the system could be better.

Topeka — A special legislative committee charged with studying ways to finance public schools in Kansas held its first meeting Friday, but it did not even begin discussion of a new funding formula.

Instead, the Special Committee on K-12 Student Success sifted through a mountain of data about how schools are currently spending their funds and how they account for the difference between “classroom” and “non- LEGISLATURE classroom” expenditures.

Rep. Ron Highland, R-Wamego, who chairs the joint committee, called it a productive hearing.

“We know now all the different subsections of where all the money is going, that most of us weren’t aware of.

So now we have those details,” said Highland, who also chairs the regular House Education Committee. “And we also know that they’re following a federal recommendation or guideline as to what funds they put in and call ‘classroom’ or ‘instructional’ spending.”

KU pharmacy programs set standard of excellence

By Dolph C. Simons Jr.

Earlier this week, more than 200 graduates of Kansas University’s School of Pharmacy gathered at the school’s worldclass building to show their respect, admiration and appreciation for the work and career of Ron Borchardt.

Borchardt compiled a truly distinguished career at KU as a teacher, researcher, scientist and mentor, as well as being a tremendously popular and active representative of KU’s overall work in chemistry and pharmaceutical teaching and research.

As the attendees from around the world gathered at the pharmacy building, there were smiles, hugs and warm greetings. Many had not seen each other for many years, and it was obvious this was a very special occasion.

The several-day meeting was organized to honor Borchardt but it also offered evi-

dence of the very special pride these men and women have in being part of a unique and distinguished fraternity: the KU pharmacy school faculty and graduates.

The school is recognized as one of the nation’s best and it has been able to sustain this level of excellence over a number of years. Unlike other schools under the university umbrella, which have had periods of excellence but fade a bit when distinguished faculty members retire or move to other schools or business, the KU pharmaceutical program remains at the top of its field year after year.

It’s not by accident. Those in leadership positions at the school place a high priority on scouting, interviewing and hiring new faculty and they exercise the same care and attention in accepting post-graduate students.

There are many similarities between those in pharmaceutical chemistry at KU and mem-

bers of the U.S. Marine Corps.

The Marines emphasize “only the best,” and that same philosophy is applied by those responsible for recruiting faculty and students, undergraduate and graduate, for pharmaceutical programs at KU. A great deal is expected of the faculty and students. It’s hard, challenging work, but the rewards are great.

COMMENTARY It is interesting that, in many cases, graduate students serve as filters in the selection of new students. They are asked for their opinions of those seeking admission to the graduate program.

Those in other schools at KU, as well as those engaged in the selection of top administration positions, should consider following the example of pharmacy people in seeking the very best individuals, not

the easiest, least costly, most convenient or most politically correct candidates.

Imagine the excellence, respect and national attention KU would enjoy if the entire university worked as hard as the pharmaceutical chemistry program to recruit and hire outstanding faculty and attract top graduate students.

KU is fortunate to have a number of Foundation Distinguished Professors, men and women of national and international prominence in their respective fields of teaching and research.

However, the university doesn’t seem to capitalize on the talents and respect these world-class professors enjoy to help build the reputation, excellence, spirit, pride and enthusiasm in individual schools, departments and the entire university.

The KU pharmacy program is special, and it is not just a “once in a while” situation.

Faculty, such as the late Takeru Higuchi, Christian Schoneich, Kenneth Audus, Val Stella,

The esprit de corps of the School of Pharmacy is well known throughout the pharmacy world. The excellence of leadership and the accomplishments of those who have passed through the school are recognized in academics, the retail pharmacy business and in the pharmaceutical industry.

Although the KU School of Pharmacy is recognized and appreciated as the best, it is unfortunate the public does not have a better understanding of the pharmaceutical industry, which, with the combined research efforts of those at schools such as KU, has saved the lives of millions and millions of individuals.

With cuttings, propagating trees and shrubs is simple E

ver wish you could have another shrub just like the perfectly shaped one already in your yard? Or maybe a sprout from a sentimental tree? Hardwood cuttings taken in late fall or winter are the ticket.

Hardwood cuttings are a moderately easy way to propagate trees, shrubs and some vines that grow in regions with a dormant season.

Propagation is the process of making more plants. Seeds are probably the most common way plants propagate, but many plant species also propagate through cuttings, layering, grafting, budding and other asexual techniques. The advantage of asexual propagation is knowing the new plant will look

Jennifer Smith and perform exactly like the parent.

Seeds, on the other hand, are the result of sexual propagation, so the plant that grows from them has somewhat unpredictable traits of both parents.

Cuttings in this context are pieces of shoots or branches cut from a parent (desirable) plant. They are classified as softwood, semihardwood and hardwood

“

cuttings.

Softwood is new growth typically found in mid to late spring. Semihardwood is softwood that has begun to harden and mature and is usually found in late summer to early fall.

Hardwood refers to softwood that has fully matured to withstand the dormant period. Hardwood stems are pliable but should be hard and dormant before cut for propagation.

To take hardwood cuttings, just cut a few hardened shoots from the plant you wish to propagate. Four to 12 inches is a good length.

Remove leaves or needles on the bottom few inches. Dip the cut end in rooting hormone, and stick the cut end into a container filled with wet sand.

Use deep, small diameter containers for individual cuttings, larger containers for multiple

cuttings, or a specially prepared section of the garden or landscape for a large number of cuttings.

Place containers with cuttings in a partly shaded area if possible (full sun is OK if necessary).

Soak the sand again after sticking the cuttings to make sure it is packed tight against the cuttings. Then, just keep the cuttings and sand moist through the remainder of fall and winter, watering when needed on days when the temperature is above freezing.

Cuttings will begin to grow roots in spring and early summer. Transplant them into larger containers if necessary.

Keep them watered through the season and expect a few to fail.

Deer Trial continued for man accused of attempting to solicit girl downtown

By Caitlin Doornbos Twitter: @CaitlinDoornbos

The trial for a Lawrence man accused of attempting to solicit sex from a 10-year-old girl in a downtown Lawrence restaurant was continued Friday after a new attorney was assigned to his case.

Jonathan Stephen Nelson, 42, is a registered sex offender charged with one count of aggravated indecent solicita-

tion of a child.

Nelson was arrested May 10 after he allegedly asked the girl at Fuzzy’s Taco Shop, 1115 Massachusetts St., to follow him into the men’s rest- Nelson room.

Nelson was convicted in 2010 of felony sexual exploitation of a child — a case that involved a 5-year-old girl in Olathe in 2007.

Nelson was originally scheduled to stand trial Nov. 9, but his attorney recently withdrew from his case. On Friday, attorney Joshua Seiden was assigned to Nelson’s case, and asked Chief Douglas County District Judge Robert Fairchild for more time to prepare for trial.

When the girl was released from The Villages’ custody about a month later, she obtained her debit card, only to find that her bank account had been emptied and nearly $500 was missing.

When Douglas County Sheriff’s Office deputies investigated the girl’s complaint, they found Guerrero on video at various stores around Lawrence using the girl’s debit card during the time the girl was in The Villages’ custody.

Once questioned, Guerrero said she had been using the girl’s debit card, but only with the girl’s permission.

Guerrero claimed that the girl “would ask (her) to make several purchases and cash withdrawals for her,” according to the affidavit. She also said the girl was with her when she made purchases and withdrawals, though surveillance video proved otherwise.

In Guerrero’s theft case, the arrest affida-

The affidavit also notes that Guerrero is currently on parole out of Texas for felony theft of between $20,000 and $100,000.

The Villages Executive Director Sylvia Crawford said Friday that Guerrero was terminated “on the day the first criminal charge was filed against (her).”

If convicted, Nelson faces up to 136 months, or about 11 years, in prison.

His sentence could also be doubled because of his previous sex-crime conviction.

BRIEFLY Trump files for Kan. GOP caucus

Topeka — Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump will be on the ballot for the Kansas GOP caucus in March.

The real estate magnate has paid the $15,000 filing fee to be on the party’s caucus March 5.

Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush and Ohio Gov. John Kasich are already on the ballot.

Trump has led the GOP presidential race in most national polls for several weeks.

His closest challenger is Ben Carson, who was visit– Public safety reporter Caitlin ing Topeka and Overland Doornbos can be reached at 813-7146 Park on Friday. Carson has or cvdoornbos@ljworld.com. not yet filed for the caucus.

Douglas County District Judge Peggy Kittel on Friday sentenced Clayborn to 61 months in prison. Upon release, he will have to register as a violent offender for 15 years and serve three years on probation.

In addition to his prison sentence, Clayborn was ordered to pay more than $2,500 in restitution.

Clayborn, who has been jailed since January, has 266 days of timeserved jail credit.

of year in terms of deer activity, Kaufman said. More specifically, mid-November is when the mating season, called rut, peaks.

“Plus the deer are most active at dusk and dawn,” Kaufman said. “Which is about when rush hours are at this time of year.”

Year-round, about 15 percent of car crashes involve deer, said Ann Williamson, spokeswoman for the Kansas Department of Transportation.

In 2014 Douglas County saw 198 accidents, 11 of which involved injuries, Williamson said.

Over the past few years the number of crashes involving deer has remained mostly constant, Williamson said. But by taking a few extra precautions, Kansas drivers might be able to lower those numbers in the years to come.

When driving it is important to remain vigilant at all times, Kaufman said, but to keep in mind that deer are most active at dawn and dusk.

“Watch the sides of the roads, especially in areas where deer might be hanging around. Grassy areas, pastures, wooded areas, waterways,” he said.

“When it’s dark and you’re able to, turn on your brights so you can see farther in the distance.”

Deer often travel in groups, so where one can be found, others are likely

Those plaintiffs won a huge victory in 2005, in the case Montoy vs.

Kansas, which resulted in a Supreme Court order for the Legislature to add more than $300 million a year in base funding.

Those plaintiffs also won a favorable verdict from a district court earlier this year in the latest lawsuit, Gannon vs. Kansas. An appeal of that decision is now pending before the Supreme Court.

In an effort to fend off further litigation, lawmakers this year repealed the formula and replaced it with a system of “block grants” that effectively

the groundwork for writing a new school finance formula to replace the old formula lawmakers repealed during the 2015 session.

That formula, adopted in 1992, sent state money to schools based on the number of students in the districts and the number of students with special needs, such as those from low-income households or non-English speaking families.

But Republican lawmakers in particular grew increasingly frustrated with that formula because of its complexity and because it frequently resulted in the state owing more money to school districts than lawmakers had appropriated the previous year.

They also grew frustrated because the key element of the formula, known as “base state aid per pupil,” has been the target of costly litigation.

But many districts, including Lawrence, saw significant funding cuts under the block grant system because lawmakers also changed the method of distributing so-called “equalization aid” that subsidizes certain parts of the budgets for districts with less property wealth than others.

Critics of the block grant system also argue it does not take into account changes in student enrollment. As a result, districts like Lawrence that had significant growth in the past year are receiving substantially less money per-pupil than before, while districts with declining enrollment are getting more

— Ron Kaufman, Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism spokesman to be in the area. Kaufman added. It’s wise to reduce speed when driving near areas where deer are more likely to be. Deer crossing signs are sometimes posted in these areas.

If you follow these tips, but still find yourself with a deer in your headlights, don’t panic, Kaufman said.

There are a few steps you can take to stay safe.

“If you have a choice, it’s generally safer to hit the deer than to try and avoid it,” he said.

“They’re a soft target, as opposed to something hard like a tree trunk or a sign post, which you might hit if you swerve.”

Don’t honk your horn or flash your lights, Kaufman said. The lights and noises can cause the deer to freeze in the roadway. It’s better to keep driving forward and to slow down quickly, without slamming on the brakes.

“A quick, controlled stop,” he said. “And hopefully you’ve been driving cautiously enough that a deer won’t pop up in front of you and surprise you.”

As always, seat belts should be worn by everybody inside the car, Kaufman said.

Highland said GOP leaders in the Legislature hope to be able to pass a new funding formula in the 2016 session. But Senate Democratic Leader Anthony Hensley, of Topeka, who was in the Legislature when the last formula was adopted in 1992, said he thinks that’s unlikely.

“The experience we had in 1992 was that it took us a couple of interims, an entire legislative session and then some to be able to put together a school finance formula,” he said. “I’m not sure we’ve got the time or the political will to put together a new school finance formula.”

Library has help for struggling students

I

f end-of-quarter grade reports and parentteacher conferences this week have highlighted subjects where your student is struggling, the Lawrence Public Library has a couple of free, ongoing programs that can help.

Tail Wagging Readers For younger students, the Tail Wagging Readers program lets kids practice reading aloud to a dog from Loving Paws Animal Therapy.

Students can bring their own book from home or use one from the library, and read and interact with a trained therapy dog, said Karen Allen, youth services coordinator for the library.

“It’s a confidence booster for kids who are struggling to read or just learning to read,” she said.

Tail Wagging Readers is the second and fourth Saturday of every month in the children’s department of the library, 707 Vermont St. Allen said that students who participate in the program four times get a coupon for frozen yogurt at TCBY,

or senior high school students typically enrolled in honors or gifted programs or recommended by a teacher — and can help with various subjects, Allen said.

“It’s pretty wide ranging: writing, crafting essays, math and some sciences,” she said.

The fact that the tutoring is peer-to-peer and drop-in can make it a more comfortable experience for teens seeking help, Allen said.

KC group: Raise age limits for tobacco Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — Leaders of a campaign to raise the age at which people can legally buy cigarettes from 18 to 21 in every municipality in the Kansas City metropolitan region say it would reduce teenage smoking and make it harder for students to take tobacco into schools.

The effort announced Thursday, called Tobacco 21/KC, is part of a national trend that began in the early 2000s. If the campaign is successful, Kansas City would become the second-largest metro area in the country to increase the minimum age, behind only New York City, The Kansas City Star reported.

In December, Columbia became the first city in Missouri to raise the age. No cities in Kansas have done so.

Raising the age would

reduce access to tobacco among teenagers, which is when most smokers become addicted, said Jessica Hembree of the Health Care Foundation of Greater Kansas City. High school seniors who are 18 are the “pipeline” for tobacco into schools, she said.

Changing the age would simply require rewriting municipal ordinances, which should be as easy as “literally one stroke of the pen,” said Greater Kansas City Chamber of Commerce President Jim Heeter. “I don’t see a downside. The evidence is so overwhelming to public health.”

The Tobacco 21/KC campaign is already supported by more than 100 area businesses, hospitals and clinics, as well as community, religious and health organizations.

State weighs tougher penalties for water misuse

ANNIVERSARIES

Topeka (ap) — Kansas officials are considering tougher penalties for people who chronically exceed water supply consumption limits or don’t report how much water is pumped from wells.

Susan Metzger, assistant secretary of the state Department of Agriculture, talked about changing penalties Thursday before an interim legislative committee of House and Senate members.

She said the $250 fine for not reporting water use wasn’t much of a deterrent.

Some people, Metzger said, don’t report usage to hide excessive consumption and consider the fine a cost of doing business.

Talk of harsher penalties comes as western Kansas continues to deplete the underground Ogallala Aquifer, the Topeka Capital-Journal reports. The agriculture department says irriga-

adopt-a-pet 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 fees are waived for another dog. Cats might be a pets of the week! “no” also.

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.

HOpE

If you read the paper or watch the local news, you know all about our sweet Hope. If you don’t, then this is a brief introduction. She is a brindle Pit Bull Terrier mix who was found outside of town. We thought she had been hit by a car, but soon found out she had been shot. After months of rehabilitation, she is ready to move on to the next phase of her young life.

lIzard

Good things do come in small packages and Lizard is living proof of that. She is a 2 year old Domestic Short Hair with gray tabby markings.

She is a petite 6 lb lady, but there is a lot of personality and love in that little body. She is the perfect size for an apartment or town home, but she won’t say no to a bigger abode either. All cats need to go home in a carrier with a collar.

JIMMY

fees are waived for pets of the week!

Does this look like a face you could love for the rest of his life? Jimmy sure hopes so. He is an affable all black Labrador Retriever with 6 years of experience at being a pretty awesome guy. His “no cats” note is because he likes to chase them, so with some time and work, he could learn to be more cat friendly. Other than that, what you see is what you get. A good dog.

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.

pIkE

Pike wants to know why all the other kittens seem to be going home and he isn’t. What’s not to like?

He’s a sweet 4 month old Domestic Short Hair and has lots of fun and love all rolled into one furry package of kitten goodness. Don’t let this little guy wait any longer. Bring, or purchase from us, a carrier and collar to make him your very own. He’ll be watching for you.

EcHO

Echo is one of many kittens who are ready to go to their new homes.

He is a sweet Domestic Short Hair and has several siblings here with him.

This year “kitten season” is lasting longer than usual.

We have many little ones still in foster care and many here at the shelter. The kittens are typically easy to introduce to their new environment, but will need some patience while they learn the rules of the home.

Can’t adopt? then please donate!

tion accounts for 85 percent of water consumed in Kansas on average.

An effort led by Gov. Sam Brownback seeks to come up with a 50-year comprehensive plan to better manage the Ogallala and above-ground reservoirs. The annual water usage reports help track water usage and are used in developing state policy, Metzger said.

For overdrawing water for a year, violators get a written notice, Metzger said.

“It’s a slap on the wrist,” she said. “A letter in the mail.”

A second violation could mean a $1,000 fine and reducing pumping in amount that’s double how much water was overdrawn. Third violations get a $1,000-per-day fine and suspension for pumping water for a year, and a fourth infraction gets a 10-year suspension of water access.

Yeti is looking for that certain someone. He is a handsome 4 year old Domestic Long Hair with black tiger markings. He is willing to accept you as you are. Are you willing to take him as he is? That’s what soul mates do. Right? He would like to be the only cat in the home and he may need some extra TLC for his possible skin allergies. Not a lot to ask for such a good guy.

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.

Alfred has finished his heart worm treatment and is ready for some new adventures. He is a 5 year old tri colored Beagle and is about as sweet as they come. He will come with some follow up instructions and we will send you with all the paper work you need for your vet visit. He does great with children and other dogs, so come give this little guy a chance to be a part of your life.

lulu

Lulu is a 6 year old Maltese mix and has a single goal. To find a lap to sit on and get lots of pets. Her coat is wiry and if you look at her just right, she looks like a miniature sheep.

She bonds quickly and would do best in a home without small children and other animals. Do you have a lap and lots of time to spoil this little lady? She would love to meet you.

JOlEnE

Jolene is a beautiful 10 month old all black Labrador Retriever mix.

True to her breed, she is a happy and goofy girl. Given her age, she would do well with some training and socialization.

With a little work at the beginning, you will both reap the benefits. She has plenty of enthusiasm to keep your kids happy and might enjoy a canine companion.

Bring everyone out to meet this sweet girl.

a nursing home and he thought it was fine for him, too.

Once there, Carl was constantly reminded to stay in bed and not walk on his own due to the risk of falling. I spoke to the night nurse and explained that Carl would still try to get up to use the bathroom, and I wanted her to check on him. She said Carl was wearing an adult diaper, so it wasn’t a problem.

She didn’t bat an eye.

Lifetime has moms’ worst nightmare After a spate of cheesy “unauthorized” takes on old TV shows, Lifetime returns to its “woman in peril” wheelhouse. Its latest offering, “16 and Missing” (7 p.m. Saturday) actually falls into the subcategory of “every mother’s worst nightmare.” But let’s not get technical.

Then again, Julia (Ashley Scott) is not your average mother. She’s an ex-FBI agent. That makes her peculiarly qualified to lock and load when she discovers that her surly teen daughter, Abbey (Lizze Broadway), has up and left and crossed state lines to meet a stranger she met online. Gavin (Mark Hapka), or whatever he calls himself, may not be the police officer he claimed to be.

Shocking! But things get a tad twisted when we discover that his sad, sick agenda may be motivated by a secret from Julia’s past.

The impressively produced historical fantasy “Da Vinci’s Demons” (7 p.m. Saturday, Starz) returns for its third and final season. For the uninitiated, “Demons” imagines the artist as a kind of renaissance James Bond, saving the Medici family and other patrons from dark cabals.

A little of this goes a long way. It borrows from the spirit of Dan Brown’s many books (”The Da Vinci Code,” etc.) that turn art and history lessons into page-turning thrillers. It also reflects our contemporary desire to reduce even the richest historical characters to comic book level.

The new series “Esquire’s Car of the Year” (8 p.m. Saturday, Esquire) offers 30-minute love letters/product placements to enviable vehicles in various categories.

Tonight’s other highlights

The star of “Everybody Loves Raymond” and “The Middle” shares entertaining ideas on “Patricia Heaton Parties” (11 a.m., Food).

College football action includes Utah at USC (6:30 p.m., Fox) and Ohio State at Rutgers (7 p.m., ABC).

“Hell House” (8 p.m., ID) explores the ghastly, ghostly tales surrounding a mansion built by a Gatsby-era tycoon.

An ancient curse catches up to three sisters awaiting Halloween in the 2015 shocker “The Hollow” (9 p.m., Syfy).

The “Knightmare” returns to 17th-century London on “Doctor Who” (8 p.m., BBC America).

Walter dismisses a hothead only to feel the heat on “Blunt Talk” (8 p.m., Starz).

Reggie expresses second thoughts about Jupiter on “Survivor’s Remorse” (8:30 p.m., Starz).

nore the call of nature seems so harsh to me. I hate this. Is there anything I can do? — My Brother’s Keeper Dear Keeper: We understand your concern and grief. But nursing homes have staff that must deal with multiple residents, many of whom have the same issues as Carl. Although the night nurse’s attitude was not very compassionate, it is simply not possible for her to get to each room in time to escort every resident to the bathroom. Accidents are going to happen.

Your choices now are: accept the diapers, hire a full-time aide to sit in Carl’s room and assist him, or bring him back to your home with hospice care. These are not easy decisions. We are so sorry.

Dear Annie: This is for “W.,” the woman

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Saturday, Oct. 24: This year you might wonder which way you should proceed.

Be aware that you will go exactly where you want to be. If you are single, you will meet someone of interest through a friend. If you are attached, the two of you act like new lovers more often than not.

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 can sit on your feelings for only so long. Stop and think about the true cause of this anger. Tonight: Not to be found.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) You’ll want to focus on a long-term goal. Be careful with a new friend. Tonight: Throw a party.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) You might want to spend time with an older relative.

Someone you care about might be overly assertive. Tonight: In the limelight.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) Plan a mini-getaway. A change of scenery helps you gain perspective. Tonight: With friends.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) You could be exhausted by everything you feel you must get done right now. Be careful about spending. Tonight: Be a friend.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Make a point of getting past a problem quickly. Don’t

who said her neighbor complains about perfectly reasonable sounds coming from her condo.

Please tell her that she can buy soundproofing drywall and have a handyman install it right over her existing drywall. Crown molding can be removed and put back up over the new drywall. It’s really easy.

I’ve done this and can tell her that she could scream and her neighbor will hear nothing. — M. Dear M.: Thanks for the suggestion, although it seems like a lot of bother for a neighbor who seems to be exceptionally (or irrationally) sensitive to sound. But the writer may find it worthwhile not to be subjected to complaints.

fight the inevitable. Tonight: Relish the moment.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) One-on-one relating takes you down a path that could please you. Take a walk if need be.

Tonight: Keep a secret.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You could be in a situation that you would prefer not to be involved with. Tonight: Wild thing.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You have a way about you that poses a threat to an older person or relative. Tonight: Stay close to home.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You have all these ideas of what you think you should or might want to do. If you’re tired, slow down. Tonight: Meet a friend.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You could be more in tune with a situation that surrounds your finances than you realize. Tonight: Know the costs of a decision.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Though you might have thought you wanted to visit a certain individual, after you hear all of his or her complaining and draining comments, you are likely to change your mind. Tonight: On top of your game.

Dear Annie: I’m the baby of seven. Two siblings died several years ago, and last May, my eldest sister died. In July, I found out that my older brother is losing his battle with pulmonary fibrosis. Two days later, my other brother, “Carl,” was diagnosed with eye cancer that has metastasized. He is not expected to live through the year.

I am devastated, as is my other sister. I’m writing to help my dying brother not lose his dignity. Carl moved to be closer to my family.

He decided against additional treatment and accepted hospice care.

He was still able to get to the bathroom.

Carl became alarmingly weak. I wanted him to stay with me, but he said he didn’t want to burden me any longer.

He said his friend was in

Russia strategy in Mideast is painfully clear Washington — Guess who just popped up in the Kremlin?

Bashar al-Assad, Syrian dictator and destroyer, now Vladimir Putin’s newest pet. After four years holed up in Damascus, Assad was summoned to Russia to bend a knee to Putin, show the world that today Middle East questions get settled not in Washington but in Moscow, and officially bless the Russian-led four-nation takeover of Syria now underway.

Does the bewildered Obama administration finally understand what Russia is up to?

President Obama says Russia is doomed to fail in the Syrian quagmire. But Russia is not trying to reconquer the country for Assad. It’s consolidating a rump Syrian state on the roughly 20 percent of the country he now controls, the Alawite areas stretching north and west from Damascus through Latakia and encompassing the Russian naval base at Tartus.

It’s a partition. It will leave the Islamic State in control in the interior north and east.

Why is this doomed to failure?

Putin’s larger strategy is also obvious. He is not reconstructing the old Soviet empire.

That’s too large a task. But he is rebuilding and reasserting Russia’s ability to project power beyond its borders. Annexing Crimea restores to the motherland full control of the warm water Black Sea port that Russia has coveted since Peter the Great. Shoring up a rump Alawite state secures Russia’s naval and air bases in the east-

“

ern Mediterranean. Add to that Russia’s launching advanced cruise missiles from warships in the Caspian Sea to strike Syrian rebels 900 miles away and you have the most impressive display of Russian military reach since the Cold War. For Obama, of course, these things don’t matter. “In today’s world,” he told the U.N. last month, “the measure of strength is no longer defined by the control of territory.” That he clearly believes this fantasy was demonstrated by his total abandonment of Iraq, forfeiting U.S. bases from which we could have projected power in the region (most notably preventing, through control of Iraqi

airspace, the Iranian rearming and reinforcement of Assad’s weakening regime).

While Obama counts on the arc of the moral universe bending toward justice, Putin acts.

As soon as the ink was dry on the Iran nuclear deal, Iran’s Qasem Soleimani flew to Moscow (a sanctions violation that we blithely ignored) to plan the multinational Syria campaign he is now directing. His Shiite expeditionary force comprises Iranian Revolutionary Guards, Iraqi Shiite militias and Lebanese Hezbollah fighting under the cover of Russian airpower.

They are pounding nonIslamic State rebels, many equipped, trained and allegedly supported by the U.S. and Obama’s vaunted 60-nation coalition. What a comfort to be pulverized by 60 to 90 Russian airstrikes each day but to know that Belgium is with you.

The immediate Russian objective is to retake Aleppo, the eastern part of which is the rebels’ last remaining urban stronghold.

Russia is not fighting the Islamic State. On the contrary. Its attacks on the anti-government, anti-Islamic State rebels have allowed the Islamic State to expand, capturing rebel-held villages north of Aleppo, even as the Shiite expeditionary force approaches from the south.

Apart from the wreckage to Obama’s dreams of a “reset” with Russia, think of how these advances mock Obama’s dreams for Iran, namely that

the nuclear deal would moderate Iranian behavior.

What has happened since the signing of the deal in July? Iran convicts an American journalist of espionage, contemptuously refusing to offer even the most minimal humanitarian gesture.

Iran brazenly tests a nuclearcapable ballistic missile that our own U.N. ambassador said violates Security Council resolutions. And now Iran’s most notorious Revolutionary Guard commander takes control of a pan-Shiite army trying to decimate our remaining allies in the Syrian civil war.

Obama’s response to all this?

Nothing. He has washed his hands of the region, still the center of world oil production and trade, and still the world’s most volatile region, seething with virulent jihadism ready for export. When you call something a quagmire you have told the world that you’re out and staying out. Russia and Iran will have their way.

“60 Minutes” asked Obama: Are you concerned about yielding leadership to Russia?

Obama responded dismissively: Propping up a weak ally is not leadership. I’m leading the world on climate change.

Upon hearing that, anyone in any conflict anywhere who has put his trust in the United States should start packing his bags for Germany.

PUBLIC FORUM

No contract

indeed, everyone having “enough” includes non-extravagant essentials such as a living wage, access to affordable health care, equal education opportunities and enough of a safety net to avoid becoming impoverished.

Yes, it’s true that different skills and abilities should and will result in varying degrees of income inequality. But let’s not delude ourselves into advocating for policies that reduce or eliminate taxes, social program spending, promote regulation-free capitalism and disdain caring for the health of our planet while believing they are in any meaningful way “moral” positions. Exacerbating income inequality by impoverishing some at the expense of others is not an acceptable outcome of freedom.

Mike Lawrence, Lawrence

To the editor: Thank you, Mr. Getz, for reminding me to dig out my contract with the Journal-World (Public Forum, Oct. 17). I’ve had my wife help me look for that contract; she always knows where I put things. No luck so far. I didn’t realize that I had agreed to read every word printed in the JournalWorld, especially the “jury-rigged jeremiads” or the “blatant or thinly veiled subtext of homophobia” found in so many discussions in the Public Forum.

My wife of 45 years has threaten to divorce me if I develop just one more phobia. I was concerned that I may have developed the most dreaded “hell-in-a-handbasket phobia” per your letter. I said “Dear, is this the final phobia that you said that I had better not acquire?” She said, “No, dear, you already have it.” Boy was I To the editor: relieved.

Justice: No IRS probe charges

Tax-exempt requests faced poor handling but nothing criminal Kevin Johnson and Gregory Korte USA TODAY

Justice Department officials announced Friday that they would not seek criminal charges in a long-running inquiry into whether the IRS and former official Lois Lerner targeted conservative groups, including the Tea Party, for increased scrutiny in applications for tax-exempt status.

“Our investigation uncovered substantial evidence of mismanagement, poor judgment and institutional inertia leading to the belief by many tax-exempt applicants that the IRS targeted them based on their political viewpoints,” Assistant Attorney General Peter Kadzik said in a letter to Congress. “But poor management is not a crime. We found no evidence that any IRS official acted based on discriminatory, corrupt or other inappropriate motives.”

Lerner was the central figure in the IRS decision to hold up applications seeking tax-exempt status. The “targeting” began in 2010 during the emergence of the Tea Party movement. A 2011 list of groups held up for review obtained by USA TODAY showed that 80% were conservative, although liberal groups had similar problems. Lerner was held in contempt of Congress for refusing to testify about her role.

“Something has happened that is flattening the curve (the number of travelers).”

MONTERREY, MEXICO Tens of thousands of people were being evacuated Friday from Mexico’s Pacific coast as the strongest hurricane ever recorded in the Western Hemisphere bore down on the popular tourist area packing sustained winds of 190 mph, down from 200 mph earlier in the day.

The U.S. National Hurricane Center predicted the Category 5 Hurricane Patricia would make a “potentially catastrophic landfall” in southwestern Mexico later in the day.

The center described the storm as the most powerful ever recorded in the eastern Pacific or Atlantic basins. It warned of powerful winds and torrential rain that could bring life-threatening flash flooding and dangerous, destructive storm surge.

“If there were a category six for hurricanes, this would be a category six,” Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto said Friday. “It’s a hurricane that hasn’t been seen before, not just in Mexico, not just in the United States. It has

some difficult days ahead, but urged them to follow the instructions of their local authorities to survive the oncoming storm.

“Patricia is one of the strongest tropical cyclones globally ever observed based on lowest central pressure and maximum surface (and flight level) wind speed since the dawn of aviation-based reconnaissance in the 1940s,” said WeatherBell meteorologist Ryan Maue.

Patricia’s winds intensified a whopping 109 mph during Thursday, rising from a tropical storm to a Category 4 hurricane by that evening. It was the fastest intensification ever recorded in the eastern Pacific Ocean, according to meteorologist Phil Klotzbach of Colorado State University.

Roberto Ramirez, director of Mexico’s National Water Commission, said Hurricane Patricia is powerful enough to lift up automobiles and destroy homes not sturdily built with cement and steel. The storm will also be able to drag people caught outside when it strikes. Those on the coast will be in the most danger, especially people living in the state of Jalisco, which has a population of more than 7.3 million, he said.

Campaign struggles force Jeb Bush to cut pay, staff Ex-Florida governor continues to lose ground, shifts emphasis to Iowa David Jackson USA TODAY

His presidential campaign under fire from donors, Jeb Bush is cutting his payroll while focusing more on the early contests in the 2016 race.

“We are moving our resources into the states to ensure that voters in primary and caucus states are introduced to his record and vision for the future,”

Bush spokeswoman Allie Brandenburger said.

The emphasis will now be on Iowa, which opens the nominating process with caucuses on Feb. 1, as well as the three other states that pick convention delegates that month: New Hampshire, South Carolina and Nevada.

Bush has said his campaign is making an especially intense effort in New Hampshire, site of the race’s first primary on Feb. 9.

“We are making changes today to ensure Jeb is best positioned to win the nomination and general election,” Brandenburger said in a statement. “Jeb

Once considered a front-runner for GOP nomination, Bush — the son and brother of previous presidents — now finds himself in the middle of a crowded pack in many Republican polls.

The well-funded Bush campaign

has taken flak from some of its donors over its performance to date.

The ex-Florida governor has lost ground to Donald Trump, Ben Carson and other “outsider” candidates. A number of Republican voters have questioned whether a “third Bush” can win the presidency.

HURRICANE PATRICIA

RESIDENTS, TOURISTS SEEK Patricia No. 1 on list of world’s SAFETY, EMPTY STORES strongest storms v CONTINUED FROM 1B

Doyle Rice l USA TODAY

Hurricane Patricia is the world’s strongest hurricane or typhoon since at least 1970, when accurate satellite measurements of wind speeds began, according to data gathered by meteorologist and hurricane expert Phil Klotzbach of Colorado State University.

Another expert, WeatherBell meteorologist Ryan Maue, said that storms prior to the satellite era can’t be accurately ranked because of the poor quality of the historical records.

Hurricanes and typhoons are the same kind of storms, known collectively as tropical cyclones. Hurricanes form in the Atlantic and eastern Pacific, while typhoons form in the western Pacific Ocean.

World’s top 5 strongest hurricanes and typhoons since 1970, based on sustained wind speeds:

1

HURRICANE PATRICIA EASTERN PACIFIC, 2015

Patricia reached a top wind speed of 201 mph on Oct. 23 as the storm took aim at Mexico’s western coast. Catastrophic damage is expected.

2

TYPHOON HAIYAN WESTERN PACIFIC, 2013

Deadly and destructive Haiyan had winds of 195 mph as it slammed into the Philippines in November 2013. It was the deadliest typhoon in recorded Philippine history, leaving more than 7,300 people dead or missing, primarily from its massive 15- to 19-foot storm surge that demolished and swept away everything in its path.

3

HURRICANE ALLEN ATLANTIC, 1980

With winds of 190 mph, Allen remains the strongest storm ever (as measured by wind speed) in the Atlantic basin. Although it weakened to a Category 3 as it made landfall in Texas, the storm killed more than 260 people in the Caribbean, U.S., and Mexico.

HURRICANE WILMA ATLANTIC, 2005

Tip’s maximum wind speed was 189 mph on Oct. 12, 1979. The typhoon has the world record for lowest barometric pressure (25.69 inches) ever recorded in a tropical cyclone. (In addition to wind speeds, a storm’s intensity can also be measured by barometric pressure. The lower the number, the more powerful it is.) It’s also the largest tropical cyclone on record (based on its diameter of 1,350 miles). After weakening to a Category 1 typhoon, the storm hit Japan, killing dozens of people in the resulting floods.

The most recent major hurricane (Category 3 and higher) to strike the U.S., Wilma’s wind speeds topped out at 184 mph in the Caribbean Sea on Oct. 19, 2005.

With a barometric pressure of 26.05 inches, Wilma is the most intense storm on record in the Western Hemisphere. Wilma killed 87 people in the Caribbean, Mexico, and U.S.

will be destroyed, with total roof failure and wall collapse, according to the hurricane center. Fallen trees and power poles will isolate residential areas. Power outages will last for weeks to possibly months, and most of the area will be uninhabitable for that same period of time.

At 5 p.m. ET, Hurricane Patricia was 60 miles west of Manzanillo, Mexico, moving to the north-northeast at 14 mph, the hurricane center said. The storm is expected to remain an extremely dangerous Category 5 hurricane through landfall, the agency said.

A total of 50,000 people were expected to be evacuated ahead of the storm, according to civil protection agencies in the three Mexican states of Colima, Jalisco, and Nayarit, Vallarta Daily reported. Those regions house the port city of Manzanillo and the town of Puerto Vallarta, a resort town with a large expatriate community from the U.S. and Canada.

According to the 2010 census, there are more than 650,000 inhabitants in Colima state, more than 161,000 in Manzanillo and more than 255,000 in the Puerto Vallarta municipality.

President Enrique Peña Nieto canceled public events Friday to put attention on hurricane preparedness. “It will be the strongest hurricane that has impacted the Pacific in the last 50 years,” he said.

Mexican officials declared a state of emergency in dozens of coastal towns, including Manzanillo and Puerto Vallarta, and ordered schools closed Friday, The Associated Press reported. The city of Puerto Vallarta established 18 shelter locations to house evacuees, and some businesses began boarding and taping up windows late Thursday.

Residents of Boca de Pascuales, Colima State, Mexico, prepared Thursday to be evacuated before the arrival of Patricia. thousands of tourists throughout the year, but airlines suspended service with the storm approaching. The Jalisco state government scrambled a fleet of 30 buses to take tourists from the coast to Guadalajara, a five-hour ride inland.

Tapia said his office is coordinating with the national military, including air, sea and land units, to clear traffic from all routes leading to the waterfront region to help evacuation efforts and allow emergency traffic to enter it.

He said foreigners trying to locate their loved ones should work through their consulates in Mexico.

The U.S. Embassy issued a statement calling on Americans to monitor emergency advisories and stay away from the beaches.

“As Hurricane Patricia moves inland, it will continue to produce heavy rainfall, wind and dangerous conditions,” the statement said. “Persons located inland in the path of Hurricane Patricia should take appropriate measures to ensure their safety, particularly those located in areas prone to flooding or mudslides.”

Patricia was expected to make landfall near an area of beach towns known as the Costa Alegre between Manzanillo and Puerto Vallarta, where locals says there’s been an eerie calm.

“It’s a beautiful morning in my neighborhood,” said Jane Gorby, a California native who has lived for 15 years in the town of La Manzanilla. She said the severity of the pending storm snuck up on residents and left them scrambling for a potentially unprecedented event.

“People were complacent, but there’s never been a storm like this before,” Gorby said.

Gorby, like most residents, planned to ride out the storm in La Manzanilla, last hit hard by Hurricane Jova in 2011. “I have tequila. I have cat food. I have things to calm my nerves,” she said. “I don’t know how you prepare for something like this.”

As the day progressed, however, stories of panic-buying emerged in coastal regions with store shelves left bare.

Training of Iraqi troops revamped for ISIL threat Jim Michaels USA TODAY

The U.S.-led coalition is revamping its training of Iraq’s security forces in an effort to speed up offensives in Ramadi and other cities, where Iraqi soldiers have been slowed by sophisticated defenses built by Islamic State militants.

“The training that was necessary for the fight yesterday is not applicable to the fight today,” said Col. Brian Payne, a coalition staff officer.

The training modifications are a recognition that offensives in Ramadi and elsewhere have moved slower than anticipated.

Iraqi forces in Ramadi, a key Sunni city in western Iraq, have encountered belts of defenses with improvised explosives, berms and other obstacles. Iraqi forces have battled for several months in Ramadi but remain on the outskirts of the city center.

The coalition trained and equipped Iraqi forces to stop and neutralize each bomb individually before moving forward, in keeping with tactics used to combat guerrilla forces who plant random improvised explosives on BAGHDAD

roads.

Those tactics have not proved very effective against the elaborate defenses built by the Islamic State. The counterinsurgency tactics are “not conducive to rapid movement and assault,” Payne said.

The new training and weapons will be designed to get Iraq’s army to use explosives and artillery to blow a path through minefields, so mechanized forces can move quickly toward the enemy. That is more in line with conventional American armor tactics that emphasize speed and surprise.

Defense Secretary Ashton Carter praised him Friday as a “pioneer of the Sunni Awakening.”

The U.S.-led coalition plans to equip Iraqi forces with “line charges,” explosive ropes attached to rockets that can fire the line charges several hundred feet.

The explosion clears a path wide enough for vehicles.

Officers hope the new tactics will generate momentum. “We’ve got to get ourselves prepared for the next thing going forward,” Payne said.

Iraq’s military will face an even bigger challenge when it tries to

“The training that was necessary for the fight yesterday is not applicable to the fight today.”

Col. Brian Payne, a U.S.-led coalition staff officer

The change in training is driven by Army Lt. Gen. Sean MacFarland, an armor officer who recently assumed command of the coalition task force here, said Col. Steve Warren, a military spokesman. In 2006 and 2007, MacFarland’s brigade helped foster a successful tribal revolt, called the Awakening, that drove insurgents out of Ramadi.

recapture Mosul, Iraq’s secondlargest city, which fell to militants more than a year ago. Iraq’s government has said Ramadi needs to be taken back before the armed forces can turn to Mosul.

Unlike insurgents encountered in Iraq after the U.S.-led invasion in 2003, Islamic State militants attempt to hold and govern towns and cities they have captured.

Chafee withdraws, leaving three in Democratic presidential race Field continues to clear for Clinton, leaving Sanders, O’Malley as only rivals David Jackson USA TODAY

Long-shot candidate Lincoln Chafee said Friday he is dropping out of the Democratic presidential race, further clearing the field for front-runner Hillary Clinton.

“After much thought I have decided to end my campaign for president,” Chafee told the Democratic National Committee’s annual Women’s Leadership Forum.

Chafee’s announcement, coming just days after Jim Webb also withdrew, leaves Clinton with only two opponents for the Democratic nomination: Bernie Sanders and Martin O’Malley. In addition, Vice President Biden announced Wednesday he would not enter the race.

A former governor and senator from Rhode Island, Chafee had David Jackson and Jennifer Jacobs USA TODAY

The Ben Carson campaign, seeking to capitalize on polls showing him ahead in Iowa, is planning to begin two new television ads in four early Republican contest states.

“Washington is broken,” Carson says in one ad. “Together, we can drain the swamp.”

Both spots push Carson’s antipolitician message; in the second ad, the retired neurosurgeon says he wants a government that “doesn’t think that it is the ruler of the people.”

According to NBC News, the $500,000 ad buy will air in Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina and Nevada, and the ads will feature Carson’s history as a doctor and status as an outsider in the 2016 race.

The ads come after two new polls show Carson surging past Donald Trump in Iowa, whose caucuses open the presidential nominating process on Feb. 1.

The new Des Moines Register/ Bloomberg Politics poll shows Carson, a retired neurosurgeon, is the favorite choice for 28% — 9 percentage points ahead of Trump’s 19%.

Even Carson’s most controversial comments — about Muslims, Hitler and slavery — are attractive to likely Republican caucusgoers. The poll shows just two perceived weaknesses: his lack of foreign policy experience and his research using fetal tissue during his medical career.

Carson’s support has jumped 10 percentage points since the last Iowa Poll in August, and Trump’s has fallen 4 points. This shift to a new pack leader is a thunderclap in the Republican presidential race.

“Donald Trump’s got a real problem,” GOP strategist Alex Castellanos said. “Ben Carson is now the favorite to win Iowa.”

Chafee, who had made his congressional vote against the Iraq invasion a key part of his campaign, said he wanted to give the speech to the women’s forum to advocate for peace — an effort in which women leaders are key.

“Studies show that women tend to lead differently than men, in that women are more likely to be collaborative and team oriented,” Chafee said. “It is undeniable the benefits women provide to the pursuit of peace.”

Chafee also told the story about the ancient Greek play Lysistrata, a comedy in which women agree to withhold sexual favors until the men give up war.

“From what I’ve heard none of the Republicans running for president want to understand anything about the Middle East and North Africa,” Chafee said.

Chafee also told the crowd that the Republican agenda “sets back women’s rights.”

Chafee raised just $408,000 through Sept. 30, and nearly 90% came from the candidate himself.

By comparison, Clinton has raised more than $77 million.

After Chafee’s speech, DNC chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz praised Chafee’s career and antiwar record, calling him “a public servant of conscience.”

CARSON OVERTAKES TRUMP IN IOWA POLL Retired neurosurgeon pounces with 2 new TV ads In one new ad, Ben Carson says he wants a government that “doesn’t think that it is the ruler of the people.”

The House on Friday passed a budget bill that would dismantle key parts of Obamacare and strip federal funds from Planned Parenthood for a year.

House members voted 240-189 to pass the bill, which would repeal the Affordable Care Act’s requirement for all Americans to obtain health insurance and for employers to offer it to their workers. It also would end a tax on medical devices.

The budget reconciliation bill faces an uncertain fate in the Senate, even though it requires only a simple majority of 51 senators to pass it.

The federal health insurance exchange that serves consumers in 38 states will open for browsing Sunday. The site will be faster and easier to use, and it will allow consumers to calculate their out-of-pocket costs, Department of Health and Human Services officials said Friday.

A key feature of HealthCare .gov won’t be ready, however.

Consumers who want to search which doctors and prescription drugs that different plans cover won’t have that new tool available yet. Officials wouldn’t commit to whether it would be available before the third open enrollment for the Affordable Care Act exchanges starts Nov. 1.

Open enrollment will run from Nov. 1 to Jan. 31. Those who don’t have health insurance in 2016 will face a penalty of $695 per person on their taxes for the year.

Many consumers have purchased plans based on their low premiums only to find their doctors or drugs weren’t covered and that high deductibles and costsharing made them far from ideal choices. About 10 million people have bought and paid for plans on the federal and state exchanges for 2015.

The agency only has about half of the data it needs from insurers for the doctor and drug look-up feature to be fully functional.

Overall, HealthCare.gov will be about 40% faster than last year, CMS says, but that may be small solace to those who struggled through the launch in 2013.

The new calculator tool will let people estimate total out-ofpocket costs for each plan based on low, medium and high usage of health care services.

AT LEAST 43 KILLED IN BUS-TRUCK COLLISION

Migrants walk toward a refugee center after crossing the Croatian-Slovenian border on Friday. More than 12,600 migrants arrived in Slovenia over a 24-hour period, police said.

At least 43 people, including a child, were killed in a collision between a bus and truck in southwestern France on Friday, French President Francois Hollande said.

It was the deadliest road accident of its kind in the country in over 30 years. Hollande called it a “terrible tragedy.”

Prime Minister Manuel Valls and Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve traveled to the crash site east of Bordeaux. “People were killed in atrocious conditions in this bus in flames after this very violent frontal collision,” Valls said, speaking to reporters at the crash site.

Most of the passengers were “elderly people who were going on an excursion for one day. They should have returned home tonight,” he said.

The petition for review filed in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia used 10 of its 13 pages just for the signatures of the 24 state attorneys general backing the lawsuit. Its single argument: “The final rule is in excess of the agency’s statutory authority, goes beyond the bounds set by the United States Constitution, and otherwise is arbitrary, capricious, an abuse of discretion and not in accordance with law.”

Leading the challenge is West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey, who represents the nation’s second-largest coal producing state. He called the regulations a “blatant and unprecedented attack on coal.”

Tech earnings, China move spark Wall St. rally; Nasdaq up 2.3% Adam Shell USA TODAY

Wall Street ended the week on a bullish note as stocks surged Friday after strong earnings results from the key tech sector and an interest rate cut by China to stimulate flagging growth in the world’s second-biggest economy.

News that China’s central bank was cutting its benchmark lending rate by a quarter of a percentage point gave stock markets around the globe a boost as Wall Street built on Thursday’s big rally, when the Dow Jones industrial average jumped more than 320 points and other major U.S. stock indexes rose 1.7%. The Dow rose Friday about 158 points, or 0.9%.

The Standard & Poor’s 500 stock index jumped 1.1% to 2075, leaping back into positive territory for the year after dropping more than 12% this summer in the

market’s first official correction in four years.

The Nasdaq composite index finished up 2.3% to 5032, getting a big lift from better-than-expected earnings from a trio of bluechip tech stocks after Thursday night’s closing bell.

Andrew Adams of moneymanagement firm Raymond James describes the rally as a “stampede.”

China’s latest move to spur economic activity and keep growth near or at its 7% annual target this year followed hints

Thursday from the European Central Bank that it, too, is considering providing more stimulus to the eurozone economy later this year.

At home, the Federal Reserve looks like it has shelved plans to hike short-term interest rates this year.

Tech stocks jumped following earnings beats from Microsoft, Amazon.com and Google parent Alphabet.

Shares of Microsoft surged 10%, Alphabet shot up 5.6% and Amazon rose 6.2%.

AMERICAN AIRLINES’ REVENUE FALLS, PROFIT RISES American Airlines’ third quarter net profit nearly doubled from a year ago to $1.7 billion, largely due to lower fuel costs. But total revenue fell 3.9% to $10.7 billion as its largest business — flying passengers on mainline flights — reported a 5.4% decline in revenue. Its cargo business also reported a 16% revenue fall. The earnings report comes a week after American combined its reservation system with the former US Airways. They completed their merger in December 2013.

$10B IN ONE DAY

Bezos leads way as big earnings reports lead to big bucks Matt Krantz @mattkrantz USA TODAY

I

nvestors just got a big reminder of the awesome profit potential of tech companies, when five tech titans scored a total of $10 billion in one day Friday.

Five of the best known executives in tech — Jeffrey Bezos of Amazon, Larry Page and Sergey Brin of Alphabet, Bill Gates of Microsoft and Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook — together hauled in more than $10 billion in gains

Friday from their stocks following astounding earnings reports.

That’s a big slice of the $90 billion in total market value creation minted Friday for all investors who own these shares.

The biggest winner is Jeffrey Bezos, the visionary CEO who morphed Amazon from an online bookseller into a global provider of products that range from cloud services to consumer goods.

Bezos hauled in $2.9 billion himself thanks to the stock’s 6.2% jump to close at $599.03. Amazon shares soared after the company delivered an adjusted quarterly profit of 17 cents a share, thrilling investors who were braced for a loss of 13 cents a share.

Not far behind is Larry Page, CEO of Alphabet, which is the parent company of Google.

5.6% Friday to $719.33 after topping analysts’ forecasts for the third quarter by 2% when it reported results Thursday night.

Adjusted profit came in at $7.35 a share, which was up 16% from the same period a year ago.

That massive pop in the stock went straight to Page’s pocketbook, adding $2.5 billion. Sergey Brin, Alphabet’s other top shareholder and co-founder, scored $2.4 billion as well.

Bill Gates’ Microsoft is back, too. Gates, who has gradually sold shares over the years to fund his global philanthropic goals, still owns 223.4 million shares of Microsoft.

That’s enough for him to generate a $1.1 billion gain, thanks to Microsoft’s massive 10% stock gain to $52.87.

Microsoft’s shares jumped by a

larger percentage than any of the other big tech stocks following a resoundingly strong profit report from the company.

The report highlighted success in the cloud, as well as with its Office 365 and Windows 10 operating system. Microsoft reported an adjusted quarterly profit of 67 cents a share, beating expectations by 14%.

Investors are so giddy about tech that they’re pouring into shares of companies that haven’t even reported yet.

Facebook shares Friday rose 2.5% to $102.19 — breaking the $100 a share barrier for the first time.

That’s enough to add $1.1 billion to CEO Zuckerberg’s wallet — even though the social networking company doesn’t report profits until Nov. 4.

Analysts like Microsoft’s future in the clouds Q: Is it too late to buy Microsoft?

Matt Krantz

mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: Tech investors are fixated on Apple, Alphabet, Amazon and Netflix. But Microsoft has quietly turned into a champion tech stock catching many investors off guard. Analysts see more upside.

Microsoft has quietly built a powerhouse cloud business that is driving growth and profitability. Microsoft’s prowess on the cloud finally became clear to investors following the company’s third-quarter profit report. The company late Thursday reported an adjusted quarterly profit that beat expectations by nearly 14%. The stock soared to catch up, jumping $4.84, or 10%, to $52.87. Microsoft shares are now up 16% this year, turning it into a surprising winner. That rally has lifted the stock’s valuation to 35 times trailing diluted earnings over the past year, well above the market’s 20 P-E but more in line with other more cloud-centric computer companies.

Currently, analysts rate the stock “outperform” and think it could be worth $53.19 in 18 months. Analysts will likely be boosting their profit targets given the size of Microsoft’s beat. Unexpected strength from the company’s Windows 10 devices and higher profits from Bing could be wild cards. New Constructs says the stock is trading well below the present value of future cash flow.

Dorsey to give one-third of his Twitter stock to employees CEO reinvests ‘directly in our people,’ made similar move at Square Jessica Guynn @jguynn USA TODAY

SAN FRANCISCO Twitter’s new chief executive Jack Dorsey says he’s giving about a third of his Twitter stock — or 1% of the company — back to the company for an equity pool for employees.

Dorsey said in a tweet that he wanted to “reinvest directly in

our people.”

The 38-year-old tech billionaire made a similar move in December 2013 when he gave 10% of his shares back to Square, the digital payments company he cofounded and that he also leads as CEO. Last week, when Square filed paperwork with the Securities and Exchange Commission for an initial public offering, Dorsey said he would donate 40 million Square shares to charity.

“As for me, I’d rather have a smaller part of something big than a bigger part of something small,” Dorsey tweeted Thursday night. He used that same line in

the paperwork Square filed with the SEC. “I’m confident we can make Twitter big,” Dorsey said.

Twitter spokesman Jim Prosser declined to comment.

Dorsey’s magnanimity — worth close to $200 million — will likely be a morale booster for Twitter employees, who could be eligible for additional equity grants. New hires may also receive larger stock grants, which could help Twitter compete for top talent. Dorsey has about 22 million shares of Twitter.

With Twitter facing sluggish user growth and growing ques-

tions from Wall Street, Dorsey is looking for ways to accelerate the pace of innovation and motivate employees.

Dorsey has kept up a steady release of new Twitter features such as Moments, which strings together the best tweets from live events. Last week, he oversaw the first mass layoff in Twitter’s nineyear history. This week at Twitter’s second annual mobile conference, Dorsey apologized to software developers and pledged to reboot the increasingly important relationship. And next week, Twitter is scheduled to report third-quarter earnings.

Final ‘Paranormal Activity’ finally reveals its demon Bryan Alexander @BryAlexand USA TODAY

Hollywood can be murder.

Even on the demon from the Paranormal Activity franchise.

Through four Paranormal chapters (plus one offshoot movie), starting with 2009’s original hit, the hell-raising spirit known only as Toby literally has been invisible. He has left footprints, loves slamming doors and brutally broke a guy’s back in Paranormal Activity 3.

But there hasn’t been a moment of screen time for the über-baddie.

That changes with Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension, in which Paranormal filmmakers unveil the force behind the mayhem as they wrap up the franchise.

“It’s a big deal,” producer Jason Blum says. “It’s Toby in the flesh, or maybe not so much flesh.”

The reveal has been kept under wraps, though hinted at in trailers for The Ghost Dimension, which follows a new family in the

saga that has killed off or possessed its past characters. This time, a family moves into a house where they find a working 1980sera video camera and tapes.

The tapes are filled with footage of two young girls, possessed sisters Katie and Kristi from Paranormal Activity 3, being mentally prepared to meet Toby.

Meanwhile, the old camera serves as a lens to Toby’s spiritual world.

Views through that camera, onscreen in 3-D for the first time in the franchise, show the evolving Toby in hardly recognizable forms at first. Director Gregory

Plotkin worked with designers at the visual effects company Industrial Light & Magic to develop the computer-generated creature who grows more prominent in the film.

“We have talked about an end game for years. It’s like, who is this guy Toby and what does he want?” Plotkin says. “We knew we’d have to pay it off in the end.”

The found-footage franchise’s tale started when original writer and director Oren Peli showed his $15,000 film at the 2007 Screamfest Horror Film Festival and received rave reviews.

Blum joined Paranormal as producer and helped secure distribution with Paramount. Formidable low-budget Paranormal installments have been the feared monster of the Halloween film season since, hauling in $811 million worldwide. But box office has waned with the past two chapters, and fans have grown impatient for answers to mysteries such as Toby, what the witch coven is seeking and the fate of past possessed children.

The Paranormal faithful are eager for satisfying answers, Nerdist reviewer Scott Weinberg says. “All good things must come to an end,” he says. “But fans deserve real closure. And revealing the head villain is very appealing.”

Plotkin says the message has been received, and he promises to tie up the story strands while showcasing Toby in the final film.

“I definitely have sensed some impatience. We all did,” Plotkin says. “But I don’t think this franchise would have been as fun if the fans got too much, too early.

“I hope and expect people’s mouths to be open as they finally get these answers.”

TELEVISION

Viewer buzz on ‘Muppets,’ ‘Queens’ doesn’t bode well Gary Levin

@GaryMLevin USA TODAY

Maybe viewers just didn’t like Kermit and Miss Piggy’s breakup.

For the fourth week in a row, ABC’s The Muppets has topped the list of most talked-about new TV series. But the buzz has turned sharply negative, according to the most recent in a fourweek survey by Keller Fay Group, a research firm that queries viewers about conversations they’ve had both on- and offline.

“The Muppets started with a healthy (positive) sentiment, but last week it took more than a turn — it plummeted,” Keller Fay’s Matt Phillips says.

Talk about another ABC series, Sunday soap Blood & Oil, also soured last week to below-average levels, a harbinger of declining interest. And though it’s not in the top 10, CW’s Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, which premiered last week, had viewer “sentiment” that was well below average.

Buzz about Scream Queens, Fox’s horror comedy and the second-most-talked-about new series, has been loud but often negative for weeks, a finding borne out by consistently low rat-

ings. (The show averaged 2.6 million viewers this week.) But in a first, more women than men frowned upon it, with 44% of women reporting mixed or negative chatter compared with just 36% of men. That finding is unexpected because women make up the show’s target audience.

On the positive front, talk about NBC’s Blindspot is 73% positive, an overwhelmingly high number that parallels its standing as fall’s top-rated new series.

ABC’s Quantico and CBS’ Code Black and Limitless were next, marking their network’s most positively viewed series.

The online survey polled separate samples of nearly 1,450 Americans ages 13 to 69 each week to measure which new shows they’re talking about, and how. While social-media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter mark one barometer of buzz, Keller Fay says the majority of such conversations take place face to face, by email, telephone or other outlets.

Three fall series have yet to premiere, including CBS’ Supergirl, due Monday. But by the season’s fourth week, viewers largely “have settled into what they’re watching and what they’re talking about,” Phillips says.

World Series next stop for Royals

Jae C. Hong/AP Photo

THE KANSAS CITY ROYALS CELEBRATE after defeating Toronto, 4-3, in Game 6 of the ALCS on Friday night at Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri.

Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — The Royals earned another champagne shower at Kauffman Stadium.

Lorenzo Cain sprinted home from first base on Eric Hosmer’s single in the eighth inning, Wade Davis weathered a 45-minute rain delay and a white-knuckle ninth, and Kansas City beat the Toronto Blue Jays, 4-3, Friday night to earn its second straight trip to the World Series.

Davis retired Blue Jays star Josh Donaldson on a grounder with runners on

second and third to end Game 6 of the AL Championship Series.

The Royals open the World Series on Tuesday night at home against the New York Mets. A year ago, they lost in Game 7 to San Francisco.

“We came in with one goal, and that was to get back to the World Series.

It can’t be any better than this,” Cain said.

Jose Bautista’s second homer of the game, a two-run shot in the top of the eighth, lifted Toronto into a 3-3 tie.

But any momentum Toronto might have had was washed away when a line of rain swept through town, sending players and fans scurrying for cover.

After the delay, Cain promptly worked a leadoff walk from closer Roberto Osuna, and Hosmer followed with a clean single that Bautista fielded down the right-field line.

Rather than hit the cutoff man, though, Bautista threw to second to keep Hosmer Please see ROYALS, page 3C

LAWRENCE HIGH 31, OLATHE NORTH 28

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Hollins has heart of a lion Green is the last color anyone expects to ever see a Lawrence High student wear. It belongs to crosstown rival Free State.

Then you hear the explanation, and it makes perfect sense. Kelly Green is the color worn to bring awareness to liver cancer, a disease that claimed the life of a mom who meant a great deal to not only her son but his teammates and coaches as well.

In a game with a fantastic finish, Lawrence High remained undefeated with a 31-28 victory vs. previously unbeaten Olathe North sealed with four seconds left.

The Lions did suffer a big loss in the spring when Schnette Hollins died 26 Fridays ago from liver cancer.

Schnette, survived by husband Ivan and their three children, lit up the Journal-World newsroom with her smile and spirit on a daily basis and had the same impact at her son Ivan Jr.’s LHS football games.

Friday’s game not only had an amazing finish — ONorth rallying from a 24-7 deficit with five minutes left to take a 28-24 lead, only to lose when Alan Clothier and Luke Padia hooked up on a TD pass with four seconds left — it had a very cool start. All the seniors went onto the field and stopped at the hash marks, the point at which the officials allow just the three or four captains to advance to midfield.

For this game, just one person advanced.

“Two,” LHS coach Dirk Wedd corrected. “Just Ivan and his mom. She was there with him tonight.

“She was a huge part of our football team,” Wedd said. “She was a great mom.

Did everything. If it meant fixing Friday breakfasts, she was there. If it was Thursday dinners, she was there.”

Her son honored her by putting his stamp all over the victory.

Hollins not only scored on a 20-yard touchdown reception, he played a part in slowing down the Eagles’ superstar receiver Isaiah Simmons, until Simmons dominated the final five minutes of the game with three touchdown receptions. Simmons, who stands 6-foot-4 and weighs 210

LAWRENCE HIGH SENIORS LUKE PADIA (18) AND ALAN CLOTHIER celebrate on the sideline after the pair hooked up for a 26-yard touchdown pass with four seconds left in the Lions’ 31-28 victory over Olathe North on Friday night at LHS.

Late touchdown keeps Lions unbeaten

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

Lawrence High football players were speechless on Friday night. Coaches raised their eyebrows in disbelief with incredulous looks.

After watching Olathe North score three unanswered touchdowns in less

than five minutes, the Lions had one play left to keep their undefeated season alive.

On fourth down with 12 seconds left, LHS senior quarterback Alan Clothier tossed a 26-yard fade pass down the left sideline, and senior receiver Luke Padia caught the ball in the back of the end zone for the game-

winning touchdown in a 3128 thriller at LHS on Senior Night.

Padia was a step behind his defender in one-on-one coverage and caught the gamewinner over his left shoulder, immediately raising his arms once he secured the catch and placed his feet inbounds.

He was mobbed by his team-

mates on the field and sidelines. The student section rushed the field after the final horn.

FREE STATE’S LOGAN MCKINNEY pulls in a pass

Please see KEEGAN, page 11C against Manhattan on Friday night at Free State.

After watching Manhattan High junior quarterback Ian Trapp run away from Free State’s defense for long touchdowns twice in the third quarter, turning a FSHS shutout into a tie game, the Firebirds reminded themselves of Friday night’s stakes.

A home win against the Indians meant a spot in the Class 6A playoffs. Correspondingly, the Free State defense got back to bottling up MHS runners and

applying pressure in the backfield, and the Firebirds’ offense made critical plays late in a 31-14 victory.

“We didn’t want to be one of the few Free State teams that don’t make the playoffs,” happy senior outside linebacker Drew Tochtrop said after FSHS won its fifth straight game, “so I think that’s what motivated us the most.”

Trapp took off for touchdown runs of 38 and 62 yards exactly six minutes apart in the third quarter, forcing the Firebirds (5-3 overall, 2-0 district) to re-

evaluate their level of focus.

“We were just out of position on those two,” Tochtrop said. “It was the same play, both touchdowns.”

In a tie game to start the fourth quarter, and facing a precarious second-and-14 from their own 35-yard line, the Firebirds began to swing momentum back toward their sideline with a 30-yard rush from senior quarterback Bryce Torneden. Two plays later, senior running back Sam Skwarlo ran left, Please see FIREBIRDS, page 11C

Independence, Ohio (ap) — LeBron James is no longer a lock to play in Tuesday’s season opener because of ongoing back issues, but the Cavaliers still believe he’ll be ready to play when the season begins.

It’s becoming more apparent, however, that James has reached the point in his career where his back will always be a concern.

James did not practice again Friday and has not practiced since receiving an injection in his back last Tuesday, his second such anti-inflammatory injection in the past 10 months.

Coach David Blatt said earlier in the week James would “absolutely” be ready for the opener, but that seems to be softening — James said he hasn’t been cleared yet by the training staff to even practice. He said he’ll play Tuesday “if everything goes right.”

“We feel like we’re progressing really well and if we can continue to do that,” he said, “then I’m optimistic that I’ll be able to go.”

It wasn’t long ago the Cavs said James could’ve potentially played in one of the final two preseason games, yet four days from the opener he still hasn’t been cleared.

“I don’t think that there’s any reason that he won’t play on Tuesday. We have no reason to believe that, but we also are of the mindset that it wouldn’t be the end of the world if he didn’t play on Tuesday,” general manager David Griffin said Friday.

“We just want him to get better every day and he has been and he’s been progressing and feeling like we’d like him to feel.”

In order to be cleared, Griffin said James needs to “do more things from a strength standpoint and from an overall preventative maintenance standpoint.” Just prior to that, however, Griffin said he was pleased with James’ overall strength.

Arizona prep Lightfoot to reveal pick

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Blue-chip basketball prospect Mitch Lightfoot, who was born in Kansas City and remained a Kansas University fan after moving to Arizona at the age of 5, today is expected to orally commit to either KU or the University of Arizona.

Various recruiting experts believe the 6-foot-9, 210-pound senior forward from Gilbert (Arizona) Christian High, will ultimately announce for KU at a 3 p.m. Central time ceremony at the Arizona Preps Showcase in Glendale.

“Tomorrow is the day ladies and gentlemen,” Lightfoot wrote Friday on Twitter. Ranked 117th nationally by Rivals.com, he also has St. John’s, Utah and Stanford on his list of finalists.

Lightfoot — he averaged 17.9 points, 9.7 rebounds and 3.9 blocks for state-champ Gilbert last season — is known for his physicality and allout hustle on the court.

Sporting News described him as somebody with “an insane motor.”

“It’s my job to bring energy from the beginning,” Lightfoot told Sporting News. “That’s one of the

biggest things. I always try to play with character and play in a way people would remember me by.”

At last summer’s Under Armour All-America camp, ESPN’s Fran Fraschilla told Sporting News: “He’s athletic. He’s got good basketball skills, a great work ethic, a great personality and he’s definitely a guy who has opened some eyes. All the basketball stuff is great, but his personality is just the icing on the cake for a guy like him. He’s been one of the more popular kids at the camp because he always has a smile on his face. You can laugh

and joke with him, but he’s been in all the extra skill sessions trying to get better,” Fraschilla added.

ESPN’s Jeff Goodman last summer compared Lightfoot to former Wisconsin standout Sam Dekker.

“If Mitch were to have a Sam Dekker college career, I think he would be very happy with that,” Fraschilla told Sporting News. “Sam is a little bigger, Mitch might be a little more explosive, but I think being compared to Dekker is just a testament to what people think about Mitch. I told him to continue to work on

his ball handling and his ability to play away from the basket so he doesn’t get locked into one spot.

I think at the college level he’s going to be a small forward; his athleticism is off the charts.”

KU, which has three scholarships to give in recruiting, more if any nonseniors turn pro, has welcomed Jarrett Allen, a 6-9 senior from St. Stephens Episcopal School in Austin, Texas, to campus this weekend on an official recruiting visit. The No. 20-ranked Allen, who has visited Notre Dame and also is slated to visit Kentucky, is also considering

Houston, Indiana, Kansas State, North Carolina and Texas. l

Jackson to play: Josh Jackson, a 6-7 senior guard from Prolific Prep in Napa, California, who is ranked No. 1 in the Class of 2016, will play for Prolific Prep in a game against Sunrise Christian on Jan. 23 at Haskell University. The news was announced on the website thegrindsession.com. KU will meet Texas that day at 1 p.m. in Allen Fieldhouse. No time has been announced for the game at Haskell. Rivals.com believes it will be 7 p.m.

Kansas kickers seeking revival

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

After starting the season 4-for-4 on field-goal tries, the Kansas University field-goal kickers have missed their last four attempts, including three misses last Saturday in a 10-point loss to T e x a s Tech.

Despite the recent struggles, Matthew Wyman, Wyman who now also is listUP NEXT ed as KU’s top puntWho: Kansas er, seems (0-6 overall, to have 0-3 Big 12) vs. the exOklahoma perience State (6-0, and poise 3-0) to power through When: 2:30 it and p.m. today said all he Where: needed to Stillwater, do was go Oklahoma back to TV: FS1 the fun(WOW! damentals channels and get 150, 227) another l GameDay chance.

It’s unon page 5C k n o w n whether the same can be said for sophomore Nick Bartolotta — KU’s short-fieldgoal kicker — who not only missed a field goal attempt last week but also an extra point.

“We’re not going to go grow another kicker or go find one. It’s not going to happen,” KU coach David Beaty said earlier this week as he began preparations for today’s 2:30 p.m. kickoff at No. 14 Oklahoma State. “We’ve got the two guys here we need, and our team believes in those guys, and those guys are going to come back and be productive for us. They’ve done it before. It’s just a matter of getting focused, concentrating and utilizing your technique.”

Added Wyman, who said misses by one guy often can lead to the struggles of another: “To be a good kicker, those (misses) have got to not be contagious. You’ve gotta be mentally strong

and forget about it and bounce back.”

The Jayhawks (0-6 overall, 0-3 Big 12) are the only conference team that has yet to make a field goal in Big 12 play and one of just three conference teams to have missed an extra point.

The Jayhawks are 4-of-6 on PATs in Big 12 play, while today’s opponent is 9-of-11. Texas Tech is the only other Big 12 team to miss a point-after try so far this season, and Charlie Riedel/AP Photo that came in its victory over Kansas when Dan- KANSAS CITY’S BEN ZOBRIST IS GREETED BY TEAMMATES after hitting a home run against Toronto in Game 6 of the ALCS iel Wise blocked the PAT at Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri. The Royals won, 4-3. that followed Tech’s second touchdown.

Mazyck back on top After playing in all 12 games and making nine starts as a junior, offensive tackle Larry Mazyck has started just two of KU’s first six games this season.

The reason for his absence is the strong play of freshman walk-on Larry Hughes, who started in Mazyck’s place at right tackle during the other four games.

This week, after returning to the starting lineup a week ago, against Texas Tech, Mazyck is back on top of the depth chart at the position and, according to Beaty, the reason is simple.

“Guys, we’re not down on Larry,” Beaty said.

“We don’t dislike him. He just was getting beat out in practice. And this week Larry Hughes got beat out by Larry Mazyck.

(Mazyck) got tired of it, and he found a way to get back on the field, which is creating that competition that we need. And it’s starting to take over.”

Series history KU and Oklahoma State have played 65 times since 1923, with the Cowboys owning a 33-293 all-time advantage.

OSU has won five consecutive games in the series and KU’s lone victory in the last 11 matchups came in 2007, when the Jayhawks prevailed, 43-28, at Boone Pickens Stadium in Stillwater.

OSU and KU are tied, 14-14-2, all-time in games played at Oklahoma State’s home field.

to a single. That gave the speedy Cain, running full speed the entire way and being waved home by third base coach Mike Jirschele, enough time to beat the relay throw from second base with a textbook slide that ignited a sellout crowd.

“I was hustling all the way,” Cain said. “I don’t know what happened I just kept going.”

Then it was up to Davis, who got the Royals out of a jam in the eighth, to finish it off.

Davis gave up a single to Russell Martin and walked Kevin Pillar before striking out pinchhitter Dioner Navarro.

After stolen bases put runners on second and third, Davis struck out Ben Revere, then got Donaldson on a bouncer to third.

Kansas City shortstop Alcides Escobar was voted the ALCS MVP after going 11-for-23 (.478).

And for the fifth time in two years, the Royals clinched a postseason series at home.

“They made a run at it,” Toronto manager John Gibbons said. “I really couldn’t be more proud of our guys. They laid it out every day, they’re great competitors and a fun bunch, fun to be around every day.”

Ben Zobrist and Mike Moustakas homered, and Alex Rios also drove in a run for Kansas City, which ended an embarrassing 29-year postseason drought just last season.

The Royals eventually swept their way to the World Series, where they succumbed to the Giants in Game 7 with the tying run standing 90 feet away.

Kansas City will try to do one win better against the Mets. The Royals last won the crown in 1985.

For the Blue Jays, it was a frustrating ending to a late-season surge that ended their own postseason drought dating to 1993. They had rallied

KANSAS CITY’S MIKE MOUSTAKAS celebrates his solo home run against Toronto. from a 2-0 series deficit against Texas in the divisional round, then staved off elimination against the Royals in Game 5 in Toronto.

They simply couldn’t win their sixth straight elimination game.

The Royals wasted no time taking the lead off David Price, the Blue Jays ace who has been so good during the regular season but remains winless in eight career postseason starts.

Zobrist pounced on the tall left-hander in the first inning, pulling a 1-1 pitch from his old Tampa Bay teammate down the leftfield line. Zobrist’s second homer of the series gave Kansas City the lead and sent a capacity crowd of 40,494 into a towelwaving frenzy.

They hardly stopped by the time Moustakas came to bat in the second.

After scrawling the initials of his late mother, Connie, into the dirt

with the end of his bat, Moustakas sent a 1-2 pitch from Price screaming over the fence in right. The ball was caught by a fan, 19-yearold Caleb Humphreys of nearby Blue Springs, Missouri, and the umpires briefly reviewed whether fan interference should be called on the play.

The review lasted 1 minute, 47 seconds, before crew chief John Hirschbeck announced that the replays were inconclusive. The home run stood, and Kansas City had a 2-0 lead.

Rios added an RBI single in the seventh, but only after two marvelous plays by Toronto limited the damage. Revere made a leaping grab at the fence to rob Salvador Perez of a two-run shot to left, and second baseman Ryan Goins made a sliding grab to rob Alex Gordon of a single.

The defensive plays

proved critical when Ryan Madson came on to pitch the eighth.

Madson allowed a leadoff single to Revere, and then struck out Donaldson, before peering in at Bautista in the box.

The home run hitter who irked Kansas City fans all series followed his solo shot in the first inning with a tying, tworun homer to left that silenced the crowd — other than the smattering of boos directed at Madson on the mound.

The home run squandered a strong start by Yordano Ventura, who allowed only Bautista’s first homer of the series and three other harmless hits in 51⁄3 innings. But it didn’t seem to dent the confidence of the Royals, who have grown accustomed to tense postseason games.

There’s a reason they were defending American League champions, after all.

No. 2 UT derails KU volleyball run J-W Staff Reports

Austin, Texas — No. 2-ranked Texas put an abrupt end to the best start in Kansas University volleyball history.

After opening the season on a 19-match winning streak, the No. 7-ranked Jayhawks fell to the Longhorns, 25-16, 25-19, 25-14, on Friday at Gregory Gymnasium.

“If this motivates the team to create more opportunities to improve in practice, then it would be a learning opportu-

nity,” Kansas coach Ray Bechard said. “Simply to come in and experience this and not change the way we are going about our business wouldn’t be productive, so we are hoping that’s the case.”

It was the first top-10 pairing between two Big 12 teams since 2010.

Kansas (19-1 overall, 7-1 Big 12) recorded a season-low .155 hitting percentage. Texas (18-1, 8-0) attacked at a .336 rate — the first time an KU opponent hit over .250 this season.

“

If this motivates the team to create more opportunities to improve in practice, then it would be a learning opportunity.”

— KU coach Ray Bechard Sophomore right-side hitter Kelsie Payne led the Jayhawks with 10 kills on a .391 hitting percentage. UT outside hitters

Paulina Prieto Cerame (16 kills) and Amy Neal (14) combined for 30 of the Longhorns’ 48-kill output.

Kansas led the Big 12 in aces per set entering the match, but that aggressive service game didn’t pay off in the first set.

The Jayhawks recorded five service errors on the way to a 25-16 first-set loss. Kansas cut its deficit to two points, 11-9, after a kill from sophomore Madison Rigdon, but another service error from KU opened the gates for

a 9-4 Texas run. The 25-16 decision marked the first time Kansas lost an opening set since August 29 at Arkansas.

To open the second set, Payne, an Austin native, lifted Kansas to an early five-point lead by accounting for all six points — five kills and a blockassist — during a 6-1 run to begin the set. Kansas maintained its lead with the help of five blocks in the second set alone. Rigdon tooled off a Texas block for one of her seven kills on the night to give

Kansas a five-point KU lead in the second set, 1712.

But Texas responded with a 13-2 run to close the set, 25-19, and head into intermission with a two-set advantage.

Kansas kept pace with Texas to a 10-10 tie to begin the third set before Texas clinched the match with a 25-14 victory in the final set.

Kansas will travel Wednesday night to Iowa State. Match time is 6 p.m., and it will be televised on ESPNU.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY FRESHMAN LIBBY WALKER CATCHES A BREATH during the 1,000-yard freestyle during a double-dual meet Friday at Robinson Natatorium. Walker won the event.

BRIEFLY Kansas swimming leads double dual Kansas University won five events and jumped to the lead after the first day Friday of a season-opening double-dual swimming and diving meet at Robinson Natatorium.

KU leads Missouri State, 150-32, and Denver, 93-91.

Junior Hannah Angell claimed two double-dual career bests in the 100yard backstroke (first place, 56.85 seconds) and her 50-yard backstroke leg in the 200 medley relay (which placed second).

“Hannah’s races today were big time,” KU coach Clark Campbell said. “We talked about stepping up this week and she embraced that challenge.”

In her collegiate debut, freshman Libby Walker chalked up the first individual victory of the evening in the 1,000-yard free in 10:14.09 and winning the race by nearly two seconds. Walker had another notable performance in the 200-yard butterfly (2:04.68), finishing third only behind teammate Chelsie Miller (2:01.96) and Denver’s Dora Kiss (2:04.06).

Miller turned in another first-place finish in the 200-yard individual medley, winning by less than half a second with a time of 2:05.44.

“Today was a mixed bag,” Campbell said. “We have some new bodies, and we made some mistakes, but they came back and performed really well.

We have to recover well and be ready to come in tomorrow so we can be in a position to be even more competitive. “ Graylyn Jones and Nadia Kechfe placed 1-2 for KU in diving.

The meet will conclude today.

Texas Tech clips KU soccer, 1-0 Lubbock, Texas — Reigning Big 12 Offensive Player of the Year Janine Beckie scored the only goal in the 56th minute, and Texas Tech goalkeeper Lauren Watson had eight saves as the No. 21-ranked Red Raiders edged Kansas University, 1-0, in Big 12 soccer on Friday at the John Walker Soccer Complex.

KU (8-7-1 overall, 3-3-0 Big 12) suffered its second straight shutout. Tech improved to 9-3-5 and 2-2-3.

“We had the better chances today, but the difference in the game was a quality finish by a quality player,” KU coach Mark Francis said. “Unfortunately, we weren’t able to capitalize on our chances like they did, but that’s the way it goes sometimes.

We need to regroup. Sunday is obviously a massive game for us. I’m confident though because if we play like we did today, we’ll have a good chance for sure.”

Kansas saw a glimmer of hope with three minutes remaining in regulation when senior Liana Salazar got a promising shot off from 16 yards out. Salazar’s try appeared to be headed for a goal but was tipped over the crossbar for Watson’s most impressive and important save of the match.

The Jayhawks outshot the Red Raiders 22-14 and were led by Salazar, who added five to the KU stat sheet. KU also amassed eight corners kicks in the match, its most in Big 12 play this season.

KU will play its final road match of the regular season on Sunday at Oklahoma State. Match time is 1 p.m.

Other KU scores: Ben Welle, tied for 11th, 69; Daniel Hudson and Chase Hanna, tied for 30th, 71; Jacques Wilson, tied for 52nd, 72; and Connor Peck, tied for 67th, 75.

Texas El Paso leads the team standings at 15-under 273. Kansas, New Mexico State and St. Mary’s are tied for second at 279.

“We had a perfect day for golf and played pretty average,” Kansas coach Jamie Bermel said. “We need to do a better job on the par-5s, as we only had a few birdies, and they are fairly easy holes.

We are not that far back and need a big round on Saturday.”

The tournament resumes today.

Lawrence gymnasts eye podium finish at state

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

For the past few weeks, Lawrence High gymnasts have spent extra time in practice, working to add new skills and more consistency to their routines in each event.

The Lions hope their extra work will earn them a spot on the medal podium at the state meet, which starts at 11 a.m. today at Newton.

At the Sunflower League meet on Oct. 10,

the Lions finished in fifth place, but were only 1.05 points from taking second place. Newton and Olathe East have consistently posted the top scores across the state this season, but the Lions hope they can finish third.

“It would be awesome,” LHS and Free State coach Brooke Kissinger said.

“Lawrence High didn’t make it to state as a team last year. Going from not making it to state at all to potentially being on the podium is pretty exciting.”

Free State didn’t qualify as a team this season, but senior Callie Hicks qualified individually on the beam, bars and vault, and junior Landon Prideaux will compete on the beam. Hicks tied for third on the vault and took fourth on the bars at state last year.

At the league meet, LHS senior Ashley Ammann posted top-10 scores in the floor exercise (8.85) and balance beam (8.325), while freshman Eden Kingery shined

on the vault (8.7) and floor (8.575).

Since the beginning of the season, Kingery has worked on adding a new skill on the bars and a new series on the beam, which she’ll unleash at state.

Ammann — the lone LHS senior — hopes to end her high school career on a high note and earn her first state medal in the floor exercise.

“It’s fun,” Ammann said. “We have a lot of new people on the team,

but we’re doing well, which is always exciting.”

The Lions hope to receive key performances from junior Jordyn Leon, sophomore Eliana Seidner and freshman Klara Hinson. Leon took 19th at state in the bars last season and had a team-best score (7.7) at the league meet.

“My hope is the consistency will be there (today), because they’ve started to show a lot more consistency this last week or two,” Kissinger said.

“I’m hoping that carries over. If we can stay on all of the events without falling, then we have a good shot.”

The Lions opened the season by winning the Shawnee Mission West quadrangular in early September, their first meet victory in four years.

Now they want to end the season in the same fashion.

“I’m excited,” Kingery said. “I think we’ll do well.”

Keep Ogbah in check

Oklahoma State defensive end Emmanuel Ogbah leads the Big 12 (and ranks fifth in the nation) in sacks per game, and his nine quarterback hurries already are an OSU season record. In short, the man is a beast, and unless the Jayhawks can find a way to slow him down and keep him away from true freshman quarterback Ryan Willis, it’s going to be a long day for the Jayhawks. Left tackle Jordan ShelleySmith may be up for the challenge of the one-on-one battle, but he’s almost certainly going to get — and need — help throughout the game. Ogbah is strong and fast and has a variety of moves that help him wreak havoc on opposing QBs.

Okla. St. red-zone offense vs. Kansas red-zone defense

PR Tre’ Parmalee 5-10, 171, Sr. Marnez Ogletree 5-10, 190, Jr.

Through six games, the Oklahoma State offense ranks third in the nation in red zone efficiency, scoring on a whopping 96.6 percent (28 of 29) of its trips inside the 20. Eleven of those scores were field goals, but getting any kind of points at that clip is impressive. KU coach David Beaty said the key to OSU’s red-zone success is the decisive nature and efficiency of quarterback Mason Rudolph, who ranks in the top 25 nationally in six passing categories. On the flip side, Kansas ranks 28th in red-zone defense. After failing to stop its first two opponents (South Dakota State and Memphis) in 11 red-zone trips during the first two weeks of the season, the Jayhawks have limited two of their last four opponents to a success rate of less than 50 percent inside the 20.

Remain strong against the run

1

Your defense held Texas Tech’s offense to just three points in the second half of last week’s loss.

How good is the KU defense feeling right now?

I think our confidence is really high right now, going into Oklahoma State. On film we saw some stuff we could still correct, and it would make us that much better. So I think once we get those problems taken care of, things will get even better and we’ll be even more confident.

of know what’s taken away, and they can help in other areas. The intensity just ramps up, and everyone really bears down and plays more physical down in the red zone.

4

What would you do with a $1 million check from proud and loaded Oklahoma State supporter T. Boone Pickens?

I don’t know. I’d probably go buy a yacht or something and put it out on Clinton Lake. And I’d probably name it something bad against the Cowboys or maybe just Jayhawk.

2

KU coach David Beaty said senior defensive end Ben Goodman stood up in a team meeting prior to last week’s game and basically said enough was enough. Is it really that simple to just decide that and then go out and play better?

To a point, yeah, it is. We don’t want to be the laughingstock of college football. You get sick of it. We come out here and work hard, just like everyone else, and when you don’t see the product on the field that you’re hoping for, after a while it just gets tiring, and you want to do whatever you can to help your team. Against Texas Tech, I think all of us came together and did that.

KU’s red-zone defense has been pretty good this year, ranking 28th nationally and holding the Red Raiders to three empty trips a week ago. What gives?

When you’re down there, you have an extra defender. It shortens the field. They can’t throw vertical routes, so the corners and DBs kind

You’re now halfway through the season, and you’re going to be a fairly heavy underdog the rest of the way. With six games left, how much emphasis do you guys put on the importance of finding a way to get that one win?

You realize it’s a process, and you want to keep getting better.

You’re not going to go from zero wins to running the table, and we understand that. But we need to get a win and these last six games are so important. We feel like we can go out and win all of ’em. We just gotta play great.

— Matt Tait

Jayhawk pulse For the past five seasons, KU fans everywhere have talked about what a difference a quality quarterback would make.

True freshman QB Ryan Willis appears to be proving them right. Although Willis has only done it for two games and still has a long way to go before he’s considered legit, his play thus far has energized the fan base and the KU offense. His confidence and act-like-you-belong demeanor are contagious, and his ability to lead the team has inspired players on both sides of the ball and given the entire roster a lift.

CHIEFS WIDE RECEIVER JEREMY MACLIN (19) LEAVES THE FIELD WITH AN INJURY during K.C.’s game against the Vikings, Sunday in Minneapolis. On Friday, the team said Maclin has passed the league’s concussion protocol and should be available for Sunday’s game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Maclin clears protocol, should face Steelers Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — Chiefs wide receiver Jeremy Maclin has passed the league’s concussion protocol and should be available for Sunday’s game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Maclin was hurt in last week’s loss in Minnesota.

He did not work out early in the week while undergoing tests, but returned to practice Friday on a limited basis.

“Jeremy practiced, he’s passed everything, we just have to see tomorrow how he feels,” coach Andy Reid said. “But he did, he went through practice today and did a nice job with it.”

The Chiefs (1-5) have lost five straight, including both their games at Arrowhead Stadium.

Maclin is their leading

receiver with 39 catches for 531 yards and a touchdown. Albert Wilson has the next-most receptions among wide receivers with eight, and rookie Chris Conley has been the next-most productive with 91 yards receiving.

The Chiefs’ secondleading receiver is tight end Travis Kelce. Their third-leading receiver is running back Jamaal Charles, now out for the season with a torn ACL in his right knee.

“It’s a big task for (Wilson and Conley),” offensive coordinator Doug Pederson said. “You’ve got to rely on, I think, not only those guys but Travis Kelce and your running game. There are other pieces of the puzzle you can lean on and

you’re just hoping Jeremy can play.”

Defensive tackle Mike DeVito has not passed the league’s concussion protocol after getting hurt in Minnesota and has been ruled out against the Steelers. Inside linebacker Ramik Wilson is doubtful after missing practice all week with knee and ankle injuries.

Chiefs linebacker Tamba Hali is also expected to play Sunday. He practiced for the first time this week on Thursday because of swelling in his knee, but did not participate Friday.

“The swelling stayed out of it pretty good. We just didn’t want it to increase here today,” Reid said. “He should be good as we go forward.”

Baylor primed for another offensive show against ISU

By Jimmy Burch Fort Worth Star-Telegram

Waco, Texas — As the numbers climb and the records fall for the Baylor offense, quarterback Seth Russell seeks refuge in the words of naysayers.

When those are unavailable, he invents them.

“We have to act like they’re talking bad about us so that when we go out there, we’re not feeling all happy about ourselves,” said Russell, who directs an offense that has tied an NCAA record by scoring 60 or more points in five consecutive games.

“When people start talking good about us, we can’t let that get to us. We still have something to prove to ourselves each and every day.”

That psychological ploy is working for the second-ranked Bears (6-0, 3-0 in Big 12), who head into Saturday’s game against Iowa State (2-4, 1-2) with a chance to stand alone in NCAA annals if they continue their point-per-minute pace. By topping the 60-point mark against the Cyclones in McLane Stadium (11 a.m., ESPN), the Bears would make it six games in a row with 60 or more points, one more than Oklahoma posted in 2008 to set an NCAA record.

The mark is one of many standards within reach of a Bears’ offense that leads the nation in scoring (63.8 average) and total yards (719.7 per game) while maintaining a unique balance. Baylor is the only FBS school that has a player ranked among the nation’s top-

10 in rushing yards (RB Shock Linwood, 133.8 average, eighth) and receiving yards (WR Corey Coleman, 146.2 average, second).

Coleman also leads the nation in touchdown receptions (16) and scoring (16 points per game) while Russell is the FBS pace-setter in passing efficiency (210 rating) and TD passes (27). The Bears’ skill-position players, who are supported by a veteran offensive line, create a dilemma for opposing defensive coordinators.

“You can go right down the list with all of their people,” Iowa State coach Paul Rhoads said.

“I walk into the defensive staff room and they say, ‘If we try to do this, it’s a TD.’ They’ve been doing it all season.”

At their pace, the Bears would score 766 points during the 12-game regular season. The FBS single-season record is 723, set by Florida State in 2013 while playing 14 games. The highest season total for all NCAA classifications belongs to Pittsburg (Kan.) State, a Division II school that scored 837 points while playing 15 games in 2004.

At this juncture, scoring records do not register with Baylor coach Art Briles. But Briles noted that Baylor’s numbers have been accumulated during a stretch when the Bears’ up-tempo offense has been held to less than 80 snaps in contests against SMU (69), Rice (78) and Texas Tech (76).

“We really haven’t run that many plays this year, not like we’d like

to,” Briles said. “We’d like to be 90 to 94 every game. But it’s not about the number of plays.

It’s about the number of points.”

Thus far, those have come at a prolific rate even on days when Baylor has applied its own stop sign. The Bears’ offensive starters removed their shoulder pads at halftime and did not participate in the second half of a 66-7 victory at Kansas on Oct. 11.

Such practices have made Russell wonder what kind of potential exists for this offense if allowed to operate in fullthrottle mode for four quarters. But he acknowledged that opportunity will not surface as long as Baylor continues winning in blowout fashion on a weekly basis.

“Nothing’s ever good enough, it seems, (to outsiders) with this offense.

If we get a 30-point win, people are upset because it wasn’t a 40-point win or a 50-point win,” Russell said. “That’s the way it is with our offense.

We’re always trying to be better in some aspect.

“I think our goal is to put at least 100 points on somebody. It would be pretty nice to have. But we have to set realistic Big 12 Big 12 Overall goals. As long as we get W L W L 4 0 7 0 the ‘W,’ it doesn’t matter TCU Baylor 0 6 0 if it’s a one-point win or a Oklahoma State 3 3 0 6 0 50-point win.”

AGENT SPOTLIGHT

communication. I believe it is important to treat everyone with respect - respect their time, investment, and point of view. Sounds simple, however, in this day and age, sometimes it gets lost.

Jennifer L. Myers Realtor®

785-393-4579 jennifermyers@stephensre.com

Client first - I understand the constraints of busy schedules with work, family and life. I think hiring an agent should be compared to hiring an “event manager” to help with your transaction.

There are a lot of details and hurdles through the process; it’s important to understand your client’s point view and be an advocate for their interests.

Where did you grow up?

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

West side of town. I love all the building and development happening in the neighborhood and being so close to Rock Chalk Park.

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

Being active. I have two boys that keep me on my toes with all of their practices, games, cub scouts and such. I enjoy all KU sporting events and am a big fan of the Dallas Cowboys.

How long have you worked in Real Estate?

Just over a year…but have been involved in real estate for the last 15 years buying / building and selling many properties with my husband.

What did you do before that?

I was a rowing coach at the University of Kansas.

What is your specialty?

I specialize in residential real estate and have participated in a lot of new construction. Our family owns a construction company. We have built / remodeled and sold many properties throughout Lawrence. Every project provides another valuable experience in real estate.

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

Challenging: The most challenging part of real estate is understanding that buying/selling one’s home is a very emotional and stressful experience. The financial and emotional investment to the home is incredibly high.

My job is to help lessen the anxiety during the process, create a base of knowledge and

cooperation, navigate the transaction, and provide professional and seamless support for my clients. Money and big decisions stress people out! My job is to reduce the drama and anxiety.

Gratifying: Assisting couples and families to find the right fit for a new home or helping individuals sell their existing home in order to move on to something else.

FREE STATE HIGH DEFENDERS DARIAN LEWIS (32) AND PAUL BITTINGER (7) PURSUE Manhattan quarterback Ian Trapp in the Firebirds’ 31-14 victory on Friday at FSHS.

saw a massive opening on the right side of the field, and bent his rush back the opposite direction for a 35-yard touchdown run, putting Manhattan (4-4, 0-2) back in a deficit less than a minute into the final quarter.

Manhattan’s next drive wouldn’t go nearly as well as its previous two.

Junior FSHS linebacker Jay Dineen met Indians senior running back Jamel Richardson in the backfield for a five-yard loss to open the series.

On third down, Trapp fumbled the ball on a carry and Free State senior Darian Lewis recovered it near midfield.

Those were the kind of plays Free State coach Bob Lisher expected from his defense, as opposed to what went down in the third quarter.

“It kind of turned into the Twilight Zone for a little bit. We just weren’t in the right dimension,” Lisher said. “We went back to what we did earlier (in the season), just getting out of position, not making the right reads. When we finally got our discipline back, they didn’t move the ball on us.”

The Firebirds capitalized on the late turnover, too, as Torneden’s powerful legs picked up consecutive first-down runs to get his team down near the goal line. On thirdand-goal at the MHS six-yard line, Torneden rolled right, then threw a low pass near the front pylon, to keep the ball out of reach for the Indians’

defenders crowded into the short side of the field.

Before the pass could get to the turf, junior running back Zion Bowlin swooped in to grab it and carry it across the goal line.

Free State shut out Manhattan in the first, second and fourth quarters, and made two crucial goal-to-go stops on defense in the first half.

FSHS plays host to undefeated Topeka on Friday. The winner will earn the district championship.

shoulder and it’s going to be money right there,” Padia said. “That’s how it played out. Perfect throw and perfect catch.”

The game-winning play rewrote the definition for “crazy.” Entering Friday, Padia had one catch for three yards. He jumped over a defender in the first quarter for a catch on a jump-ball and ran 58 yards for a touchdown — his first varsity touchdown.

The 6-foot-2 Padia, who starts in the outfield for the baseball team, was also playing in front of his father for the first time in his high school career.

“It’s just awesome to do it in front of him and ecstatic he got to see it,” Padia said of his dad.

The Eagles (7-1, 1-1 in districts) nearly shocked the Lions with huge plays by 6-foot-4, 210-pound receiver Isaiah Simmons.

He caught three touchdown passes in the fourth quarter, helping Olathe North turn a 24-7 deficit with just more than five minutes remaining into a 28-24 lead.

Simmons, who was held without a catch in the first half, caught a 60yard strike from quarterback Matt Wright with 2:20 left. Then, after the Lions couldn’t convert a first down to run out the clock, Simmons found space in the middle of

pounds, finished with five catches for 120 yards.

Hollins is a 5-7, 160-pound senior, who had help all night from an outside linebacker in doubling Simmons.

“He’s a real tough receiver,” Hollins said of Simmons, whose brother Victor played for Kansas University. “You just try to play big, jump, do whatever you can.”

Clothier expressed gratitude for the job Hollins did Friday.

“He’s just a playmaker,” Clothier said. “You put him out there against a 6-4 Simmons he’s not

LAWRENCE HIGH SENIOR RECEIVER LUKE PADIA TAKES THE BALL AWAY from Olathe North senior defensive back Jake Campbell (11) for a 58-yard touchdown during the Lions’ 31-28 victory on Friday at LHS. the end zone for a 35yard touchdown with 1:02 remaining. LHS defensive backs dropped their heads to the field after the go-ahead score.

“We haven’t been behind that much this year,” Clothier said. “Our hearts just dropped. We didn’t know what to do.”

With 62 seconds to drive 65 yards down the field, Clothier found senior receiver J’Mony Bryant for a 36-yard connection on a 3rd-and-15 pass.

Three plays later, the Lions (8-0, 2-0) called their “Four Verticals” play and Clothier tried to throw a fade pass to Padia, but the pass slipped a little and flung out of bounds.

On the next snap, the Lions called the same play and Clothier made sure he found his receiver.

“I knew we had one shot. It was a little shaky but I just tried to give him as best of a ball as I could and he caught it,” said Clothier, who tossed for 138 yards and ran for another 58 yards, including a one-yard touchdown on a QB sneak. “It was just right in the perfect spot.”

In the first half, the Lions took advantage of a couple of Olathe North turnovers. Senior running back JD Woods, who was held to 92 yards on 23 carries, tossed a 20-yard halfback pass to Ivan Hollins for a touchdown.

When the Eagles avoided fumbles, they moved the ball down the field until the Lions would strike with tackles in the backfield.

In the locker room following their comeback victory, the Lions sang

going to back down. His size doesn’t matter. He’s got the heart of a lion.

He’s going to make plays.

“He’s a heck of a football player. He works his tail off every day. What he’s gone through, it’s crazy how much of a man he is. He’s so mature. I respect him so much. He’s like a brother to me.”

Clothier said the players all knew how proud Hollins’ mom would have been on Senior Night, so they made it about her.

“She was a fantastic lady,” Clothier said. “A lot of people looked up to her. I looked up to her. She was like another mom to me. She always had a positive attitude and you see it in Ivan, too. He always has a positive attitude, no matter what. He kept

his head up through the whole thing.”

And he kept his head on the football launched to him by J.D. Woods on a tailback option.

If you had just looked up from your popcorn in time to see Hollins catch a pass in the back of the end zone, you would have thought it was a beauty.

In many ways it qualified as just that. It landed, eventually, right into the receiver’s hands, sending the referee’s arms up to signal six points.

That’s all that matters, so it was swan-beautiful, like a Jim Furyk drive that rolls down the middle of the fairway, rendering meaningless the path his swing took to get the club square at impact.

the hook of “Celebration”

by Kool & The Gang.

“It was unbelievable,” Padia said. “Senior Night.

Backs against the wall with a minute and two seconds left. Our senior quarterback eases us down the field. Steps up and makes plays and puts the ball right where I needed it to be.”

Woods’ pass started as an ugly duckling, a wounded ugly duckling.

The ball looked a bit like a punt, wobbling end over end until it landed right on target.

Woods to Wedd: “That was a great pass, coach.”

Wedd to Woods: “Duck season opens Saturday, not Friday.”

Hollins broke the tie: “I knew he would lead me perfectly. It’s just a matter of how much trust you have in your teammates and I have a whole lot of trust in J.D. It was a great pass.”

For a pass play that looked so bleak at the start to finish so splendidly and for a game that turned so sour for the Lions so suddenly to end so sweetly gave the night a divineintervention feel to it.
