Black Hills: Gas bills likely down this winter

ormer U.S. President Bill Clinton is the winner of the 2015 Dole Leadership Prize, bestowed annually by the Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics at Kansas University.

Clinton is scheduled to come to campus to accept the award at 1 p.m. Nov. 23 at the Lied Center. The day’s program also will be broadcast live online at doleinstitute. org.

Dole Institute director Bill Lacy said several of Clinton’s traits made him a worthy recipient of the prize.

“President Clinton’s presidency included strong leadership and bipartisanship,” Lacy said.

“Much of his work as president — including his balancing of the budget and efforts to reach across the aisle — mirrors the mission of the Dole Institute and the values of Senator Dole.”

The gas is also cheaper.

The New York Mercantile Exchange forecasts natural gas prices to be about 11 percent lower than last winter. Pope presented data showing commodity prices in the midcontinent region were about $3.74 per Dth (dekatherm) last winter, and they’re forecasted to be $2.86 per Dth this winter.

Gas

National storage levels by Sept. 4 of this year were 17 percent above last year and 4 percent above the five-year average, according to data presented Wednesday.

Black Hills Energy uses winter weather forecasts from resources such as the Farmer’s Almanac, AccuWeather and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration in deciding the supply of natural gas it purchases to get through the winter season.

The Farmer’s Almanac predicts the central U.S. will see “near-normal winter temperatures,” while AccuWeather forecasts occasional mild days for the area.

“Again, we always provide the disclaimer that long-range forecasts are not

Estimated prices for consumers were not discussed.

“Forecasted prices for the 2015-2016 winter season are significantly lower than last year,” Pope said. “So, that’s encouraging for customers.”

Pope said a downward trend in natural gas prices is the result of steady production levels and demand.

Last year, Black Hills Energy leaders told city officials there would be a slight increase in natural gas prices as natural gas supplies nationwide were still trying to catch up from heavy usage in the cold 2013 winter season.

They do have to wear purple, though, which has to be factored into this equation somewhere.

KU fared well, however, in the overall ranking that SmartAsset puts together on universities in the state.

It finished second in the “Best Value” category of all schools ranked in the state.

Kansas State finished first.

Pittsburg State, Emporia State and Wichita State rounded out the top five.

Baker finished seventh.

It is always interesting to look at how KU stacks up against other colleges, because I can assure you prospective students are looking at such issues. It also is important, though, to keep the numbers in perspective. For example, average starting salaries aren’t necessarily a reflection of what the market thinks of the quality of the degrees being awarded

by KU. Instead, it may be more of a reflection of the degree mix of a university.

A university that awards a lot more English degrees probably will have a lower starting salary than a university that awards a lot of engineering degrees.

It doesn’t have anything to do with the quality of degree. Instead, it’s just a supply and demand thing.

America needs lots of engineers, but a quick look at Twitter confirms we have abandoned English as

KU Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little said in the news release that hearing directly from the former president would be “a special experience for our students and a special moment for our university.”

The Nov. 23 event is free and open to the public, though a limited number of tickets are available.

Tickets will be available beginning 11 a.m.

Nov. 9 through the Lied Center box office, 1600 Stewart Drive. Individuals must claim their tickets in person at the box office, and tickets are limited to two per person. They are reserved seating.

For KU students, a total of 500 tickets will be reserved through the Student Union Activities office and will be available at 9 a.m.

Nov. 9.

Students must present a valid KU ID and claim their tickets in person at reliable — they’re based on the best valuable information at the time of the forecast,” Pope said. “A caveat is, we can never predict that there’s going to be a cold spike, which obviously happens, and usage goes up. Prices and volatility are subject to that.”

Black Hills Energy representatives also told city officials about the company’s recent acquisition of SourceGas, which brings in about 425,000 customers in five states.

Quonset hut Chuck Hoag, Lawrence operation manager with Black Hills Energy, gave a brief update on the company’s old Quonset hut in East Lawrence.

The Journal-World reported in April that the

a language.

But the numbers for KU are a little surprising, given that KU has the only medical school in the state.

Plus, we have engineering, law, pharmacy and several other high-paying degrees at the university. (To be fair, I can’t tell from the study whether the average starting salary is for all degrees or only undergraduate degrees.) We do have a very large liberal arts school, but so do some of the others that are ahead of KU on the list.

The study looks at a host of other statistics. It ranks tuition numbers, student living costs, the average amount of scholarships and grants and other statistics. The figures come from a 2013 report from the National Center for Educational Statistics, and a 2014 report from Payscale, a private company that says it tracks about 54 million individual salaries across the country. I also did a little digging in SmartAsset’s study to see how KU stacked up with the other schools in the Big 12 that were ranked. The value rating is a subjective measure that SmartAsset puts together to measure the overall financial picture of the school. A score of 100 is best. Here’s a look at those numbers: l University of Texas: $50,400 salary; $9,790 tuition; $15,602 student living costs; value rating 80.6 l Texas Tech: $49,000 salary; $7,517 tuition; $14,505 student living costs; value rating 71.65

l Iowa State: $47,800 salary; $7,726 tuition; $11,194 student living costs; value rating 84.84 l University of Oklahoma: $47,700 salary; $8,706 tuition, $14,584 student living costs; value rating 71.09 l Kansas State University: $45,200 salary; $8,047 tuition; $12,100 student living costs; value rating 70.63 l Oklahoma State: $44,400 salary; $7,442 tuition; $14,160 student living costs; value rating 66.08 l West Virginia: $43,800 salary; $6,090 tuition; $10,230 student living costs; value rating 77.46 l Kansas University: $42,100 salary; $9,678 tuition; $12,584 student living costs; value rating 64.02 When you compile the list that way, it doesn’t look too good for KU. The university has the lowest salary of the Big 12 schools that were ranked (I couldn’t find Baylor or TCU in the study), and it has the second-highest tuition of any of the schools ranked in the conference.

You’ll have to make what you will of the study’s “value ranking” — it clearly is subjective — but KU finished last in that category in terms of Big 12 schools.

But remember, it finished second in Kansas.

SmartAsset apparently doesn’t think Kansas’ higher education strategy is that smart.

the Kansas Union Welcome Center, on level four of the Kansas Union, 1301 Jayhawk Blvd. Student tickets are limited to one per person.

Former U.S. Sen. Bob Dole of Kansas, for whom the award is named, said in KU’s news release he was proud Clinton would be honored.

“I speak with the president now and then, and we have become friends over the years,” Dole said. “I know the event will attract many students and people from across the Midwest. If I could be there, we could have a lively debate.”

Dole was on hand to personally introduce Clinton when the former president spoke at KU in 2004. Clinton came to KU to deliver the inaugural speech in the Dole Lecture Series to about 12,000 people in Allen Fieldhouse.

Clinton, the 42nd U.S. president, led the country from 1993 to 2001.

After leaving the White House, Clinton established the Clinton Foundation, which works to improve global health, increase

opportunity for girls and women, reduce childhood obesity and preventable diseases, create economic opportunity and growth and help communities address the effects of climate change, according to its website.

Clinton also has served as the top United Nations envoy for the Indian Ocean tsunami recovery effort and as the U.N. Special Envoy to Haiti.

Clinton’s wife, Hillary Clinton, is the Democratic front-runner in the campaign to become the next president of the United States.

The Dole Leadership Prize is awarded to honor an individual or group whose public service leadership inspires others.

Previous winners have included Nelson Mandela, the Wounded Warrior Project, former Ukrainian president Viktor Yushchenko and former President George H.W. Bush.

city’s Historic Resources Commission voted against a plan that would allow Black Hills Energy to demolish the building.

Hoag said the building is currently being used for storage and as a compressed natural gas fueling station.

Black Hills Energy decided it would not appeal the commission’s vote, he said.

“At one point we were going to appeal that, and we just thought through the process and thought at this point in time it was best just to hang onto it and utilize it as we had been,” Hoag said.

There’s been interest from Lawrence residents about using the hut. Hoag said Black Hills Energy is “always open to what people have to say about other uses for the property.”

County ‘steps up’ for inmate mental health

By Conrad Swanson Twitter: @Conrad_Swanson

Douglas County commissioners on Wednesday reaffirmed their commitment toward reducing the number of seriously mentally ill people in jail.

The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office asked commissioners during their weekly meeting to join the national Stepping Up Initiative, which aims to seek treatment alternatives to jail for those classified as seriously mentally ill.

Sheriff’s office details case manager plan

“

(It’s) a lot easier to commit to such a big and important program when you know the people behind it are doing great work.”

— County Commissioner Nancy Thellman The proclamation request came in conjunction with the county’s ongoing work for a potential jail expansion and mental health crisis intervention center projects, said Mike Brouwer,

re-entry director for the sheriff’s office.

“I’m so grateful for all the work you’ve done,” County Commissioner Nancy Thellman said to Douglas County Sheriff Ken McGovern. “You

have our commitment, and, boy, it’s a lot easier to commit to such a big and important program when you know the people behind it are doing great work.”

After the commissioners’ proclamation, McGovern spoke to them about a nearly $200,000 grant the sheriff’s office was awarded by the Bureau of Justice Assistance in September.

Topeka — Federal health care officials say consumers who buy their health insurance on the new exchange markets may be able to find significant savings while keeping the same level of coverage next year, if they shop carefully.

“We know that the relatively high rate of switchers in the marketplace are telling us that consumers are using the marketplace to actively shop, and that they are finding significant savings when they do,” said Stephene Moore, regional director for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, the agency that operates the health insurance exchange market in Kansas.

Under the Affordable Care Act, commonly known as Obamacare, most individuals are required to carry health insurance. Those who don’t will face a tax penalty the following year.

People in Kansas who don’t receive insurance through their employer, or who can’t afford their employer-based coverage, can buy insurance through HHS’s web-based exchange market, Healthcare.gov.

here’s drunk, and then there’s druuuunk.

Obviously, one should be neither behind the wheel. But alas, Lawrence saw 24 total DUI arrests last weekend.

And that’s not even an inordinately large number for an average Friday through Sunday in town.

But one of the 24 arrests stood out from the rest, causing much ado for Lawrence police.

At 2:31 a.m. on Friday, an officer on patrol noticed a car stopped with its headlights on and engine running in the 1400 block of Crestline Drive, Lawrence Police Department spokesman Sgt. Trent McKinley said.

DUI checklane planned for Halloween night with his foot on the brake at the top of a hill facing south toward Bob Billings Parkway.

The officer then called for backup before trying to wake the driver.

Assisting officers placed patrol vehicles against the front and rear bumpers of the suspect’s car in case the man “suddenly awoke hit the acceleraCaitlin Doornbos and tor,” which McKinley said police “know from Intrigued, the officer got experience does occur.” out of the police car to Once the vehicles see what was going on. were in place, the ofThe officer apficers knocked on the proached the car and man’s car windows in found a male driver an attempt to wake passed out at the wheel him.

work and they found the doors were locked, officers broke the man’s passenger window.

Police then got into the car and put it in park.

The driver then woke up, reeking of alcohol.

McKinley said he also had “other signs of impairment,” so officers conducted a field sobriety test, after which he was arrested.

Investigating officers found that the man’s car also had “what appeared to be fresh damage to it” besides the broken window, McKinley said.

gins Sunday.

Moore spoke during a telephone news conference Wednesday to release a new report that showed people who shopped carefully in 2014 were able to find significant savings, even while keeping their same level of coverage.

And an HHS spokesman in Washington said officials believe that will be the case again this year.

“If all the consumers switch from their current plan to the lowestcost plan in the same metal level, the same level of coverage, consumers could save an average of $610 annually, before tax credits,” HHS spokesman Kevin Griffis said.

Kansas kids lag in math, national test scores say Associated Press

Topeka — Kansas schoolchildren are faring worse on a test known as the nation’s report card.

The state’s performance dip follows a national trend of falling scores on the National Assessment of Educational Progress. The scores were released Wednesday. They show that the math scores of Kansas fourth- and eighth-graders slipped over the past two years, which is similar to what

happened with students nationally. Reading scores dropped slightly for Kansas fourth-graders, while nationally they were flat. Among eighthgraders, reading scores held steady in Kansas and were lower nationally.

Kansas Education Commissioner Randy Watson said in a statement that the reason for the decrease isn’t clear.

But he added that state officials would “take it seriously.”

Gov. Sam Brownback says the scores “reflect the need for real education reform.”

And if you’re trying to do the right thing by walking, McKinley still has some safety tips for you: 1) If in costume, wear a bright or reflective item to help drivers see you.

Kansas University’s new engineering building — Learned Engineering Expansion Project Phase 2, or LEEP2 for short — will be dedicated Friday afternoon. Thanks no doubt will include the donors who have spaces in the building named for them.

Primary funding for the building came from legislative appropriations through the state’s University Engineering Initiative Act, but various spaces and enhancements were enabled by donors. KU shared the names of those spaces Wednesday, and Rosita Elizalde-McCoy, senior vice president of communications and marketing for KU Endowment, shared the dollar amounts of their donations: l McClendon Atrium: Enabled by a gift from Brian and Beth Ellyn McClendon.

Intrusive roomates must find someplace else Dear Annie: An acquaintance recently lost his job, and we invited him and his wife to move into our home on a temporary basis.

We all agreed they would live with us until one of them found another professional position.

It’s been only three months, but it’s already uncomfortable. “Sue” and “Bob” do small household chores and pay a minimal amount in rent, but that doesn’t counteract the interruption they have added to our daily lives. They have taken over the fridge, the cabinets, the laundry room, the living space and the kitchen. We have no private time anymore and cannot trust them to lock doors or turn off the dryer or coffeemaker when

they leave the house.

They parade around the house semi-nude, make a lot of noise when we’re sleeping and talk while we are reading or watching TV. We have discussed these issues and others as they have come up, but it hasn’t helped.

We’ve asked them to keep out of our bedrooms and home office, but the other day I found both of them coming out of the of-

‘Bones’ meets ‘Sleepy Hollow’ Halloween hoopla and network ballyhoo collide with a Fox crossover episode blending the mortuary humor of “Bones” (7 p.m., TV-14) with the outlandish supernatural malarkey of “Sleepy Hollow” (8 p.m., TV-14).

The integration of the two stories begins when FBI agent Abbie Mills (Nicole Beharie) and Ichabod Crane (Tom Mison) visit the Jeffersonian in search of a headless body that appears to be centuries old and linked to a very recent murder.

Because this is crossover a holiday one-off, Booth and Brennan (David Boreanaz and Emily Deschanel) spend a lot of time playing trick-or-treat pranks amid the cadavers.

Help yourself. l Elsewhere, ABC repeats “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown” (7 p.m., TV-G) for the second time in two weeks. This Halloween special held its own last Tuesday, attracting nearly as many viewers in the 18-to-49 age bracket as “NCIS.” That’s rather remarkable, given that it was first broadcast in 1966. Next year it will be older than any member of that coveted demographic. But that hardly seems to matter. l Anther suitably ghoulish Halloween treat includes a new installment of “Monsters Inside Me” (8 p.m., Animal Planet, TV-14), the nonfiction series that takes an up-close-andpersonal glance at infections and even infestations occurring within a patient’s body. First up: an affliction that makes a 4-year-old feel like he’s drowning in his own mucus! l “Evil Twins” (9 p.m., ID, TV-14) ends its short, six-episode season with a tale of Ohio twins with deep, dark secrets who also happen to be rival pediatricians. l “Jimmy Kimmel Live” (10:35 p.m., ABC) continues its Halloween tradition of having the host, band and much of the crew dress up in costume. This year’s theme is “Star Wars,” all the better to welcome tonight’s first guest, Harrison Ford. Katie Lowes (“Scandal”) also appears.

Tonight’s other highlights

l The New England Patri-

ots host the Miami Dolphins on “Thursday Night Football” (7:25 p.m., CBS, NFL). l A price on Liz’s head inspires a scrum of would-be abductors on “The Blacklist” (8 p.m., NBC, TV-14). l Fitz and Olivia hatch a solution to their woes on “Scandal” (8 p.m., ABC, TV-14). l Contestants return home to work on their collections and await Tim Gunn’s advice on part one of the season finale of “Project Runway” (8 p.m., Lifetime, TV-PG). l A canine combat veteran gets his own memorial on “Mysteries at the Monument” (8 p.m., Travel, TV-PG). l Alex must stop a serial killer before Halloween arrives on “The Player” (9 p.m., NBC).

We do not want to put locks all over. We want to trust them, but it seems unlikely.

They have made comments about our bills, which indicates they have looked at our private mail.

They are supposedly applying for jobs, but so far haven’t found anything that pays what they feel they deserve. We worry we’ll be stuck with them forever. They have severance pay, unemployment and money from family members. They spend it on manicures, personal trainers and new electronics.

Here’s the kicker: They are actively seeking a divorce.

How do we tell them they have overstayed their welcome?

Indirect route Planning for a new city transit hub has run into a number of detours. It’s time to settle on a plan and get this project back on track.

I

n summer of 2013, the city decided to move the transit hub for its T bus system to the 700 block of Vermont Street on a temporary basis.

The hub needed to be relocated from Ninth and New Hampshire streets to accommodate major construction projects there. At the time, the city already was looking for a more permanent location for a transit hub but indicated it could take a year or more to make that move.

More than two years later, buses still are converging in the 700 block of Vermont and the city still seems a long way from settling on a plan for a permanent transit hub.

In June 2014, Lawrence city commissioners expressed support for plans to move the transit hub out of downtown and closer to the Kansas University campus. The location under study at that time was near 21st and Iowa streets. Transit officials worked on that plan for about a year and brought back a firmer proposal for a 21st and Iowa transit hub, which was rejected by a new set of commissioners in June 2015. In rejecting the plan, several commissioners said they wanted to look at a more central location, maybe in the area of Ninth and Iowa streets. The hub, they said, needed to be more of a “destination” where shopping and other services were available. That didn’t seem to make a lot of sense because most people at a bus hub are there to transfer to another bus to reach their final destinations, not to shop or grab a cup of coffee.

Nonetheless, city transit officials were sent back to the drawing board. This week, they floated the idea of collaborating with KU to build a bus hub in an existing campus parking lot east of Allen Fieldhouse. This seems like a reasonable idea that would benefit the many KU students who ride local buses. The location is close to the central city and probably could be designed to accommodate the large number of buses without hindering traffic or negatively affecting the nearby neighborhood. Transit officials called the KU parking lot location an “intriguing” possibility but emphasized that the plan was very preliminary.

Meanwhile, the “temporary” bus hub in downtown Lawrence is heading into its third year of operation.

It’s time for the city to get moving on a new permanent location for the hub.

The KU parking lot location seems to have possibilities, but if it doesn’t suit city commissioners, they should say so now and give transit officials specific instructions on how and where to proceed. This decision has lingered long enough.

Political reality of fantasy sports Washington — Americans have been betting on sports since the first time a Puritan pilgrim boasted that his horse was the fastest in Massachusetts Bay Colony and another said, “Wanna bet?” But fish gotta swim, birds gotta fly and government gotta fret about gambling on fantasy sports. Torrential television advertising by DraftKings and FanDuel is creating millions of customers for these sports fantasy businesses, thereby creating government anxiety lest Americans make unregulated choices inimical to their material and moral well-being.

In today’s decidedly unpuritanical America, betting on sports is illegal, except where it isn’t (Nevada, Oregon, Montana, Delaware).

Besides, much more money is wagered illegally on sports than in legal casinos. Someday the number of Americans who bet on the Super Bowl will be approximately equal to the number of Americans.

In 2006, a year after an estimated 15 million Americans wagered $6 billion online, Congress, evidently convinced that Prohibition was a resounding success at ridding the nation of Demon Rum, launched Prohibition 2.0. Congress enacted a prohibition of Internet gambling, making it illegal for banks or credit card companies to process payments to online gambling operations. Mother-hen government said such gambling was already illegal under the Wire Act, passed in 1961, before there was an

“

Not for the first time, the law is a lagging indicator of where society is going without asking the government’s byyour-leave.”

Internet. But this law, which has predictably failed to stop Internet gambling, exempted fantasy sports, which were not then considered a serious commercial opportunity.

When government action restricts Americans’ choices, ostensibly for their own good, the paternalism usually has a pecuniary motive. America’s principal promoters of gambling are the 48 states with some form of legalized betting, including 44 that have gambling-addiction problems: They are addicted to revenues from their lotteries and resent fantasy sports games poaching “their” gamblers.

Players in fantasy sports assemble make-believe teams from actual athletes — most commonly, NFL athletes — and the teams succeed or fail based on the players’ achievements on a given day. This is

obviously gambling: Players risk money wagering on variables — individual athletes’ performances — beyond the players’ control. It is, however, gambling leavened by skill: Players can improve their odds by acquiring advantageous information — by studying athletes’ performances more assiduously than those they are playing against.

One supposed problem is this: In fantasy sports, as in real sports and the rest of life, some people excel, usually because they work harder than others. Justin Van Zuiden, writing in Sports Illustrated, says that “so far this year I’ve made more money — the low six figures as of last weekend — from fantasy sports than from my CPA job.” He is good with numbers. Life is unfair.

DraftKings’ advertisements promise “a new fantasy millionaire every week” and the company says it will disburse $1 billion in winnings this year. FanDuel says its patrons win $75 million a week and might receive $2 billion this year. The stakes increase with the entry fee, which can be as low as free and more than $5,000. Major League Baseball, the National Football League, the National Basketball Association, NBC Sports, Fox Networks Group and other entities see not only investment opportunities but ways to deepen fans’ interests in professional sports.

Not for the first time, the law is a lagging indicator of

where society is going without asking the government’s by-your-leave. What technology — the Internet — makes possible (a multitude of fantasy games and instantaneous payouts), enough determined people will do until the laws proscribing it become too embarrassing to enforce.

The fantasy sports industry already has a trade association. The industry will need it. When politicians say the industry is unregulated, they mean it is not supervised by them. It is, however, sternly regulated by market forces, as the fierce DraftKings/FanDuel competition indicates. Another indication is the speed with which both reacted to a recent mini-not-really scandal: When a DraftKings employee won $350,000 playing on FanDuel, both businesses instantly moved to prevent the equivalent of “insider trading” — players utilizing special access to pertinent information.

According to ESPN The Magazine, “The FBI estimates that $2.6 billion was wagered illegally in 2013 on March Madness (the NCAA basketball tournament) alone; pro gamblers would bet it’s 10 times that.” The law will accommodate all sorts of sports gambling not when government becomes a friend of liberty by allowing victimless pleasures, but when government recognizes in fantasy sports something it loves more than liberty: something to regulate and tax.

To the editor: The Oct. 25 editorial contained 10 versions of the derisive word “liar,” which were all directed to describe former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. We all know that repetitive denigration of any opponent is the pattern which the Republican National Committee and Fox News uses to brainwash their followers, while playing loose with the actual evidence gathered over a period of time.

I watched that 11-hour public grilling of Secretary Clinton by Rep. Gowdy’s committee and felt that it revealed a complicated fact-gathering process by the CIA, the State Department and military intelligence as they were all faced with an unexpected attack on a U.S. facility in Benghazi. Who knew what when? Who reported what when?

What needed to be corroborated prior to any public releases?

The State Department was aware that this anti-Muslim video had been motivational in creating anger in the Mideast for months, and it naturally became the first “cause” that was suspected in the Benghazi attack. Does speculating about suspicions with incomplete information now qualify as “lying?”

Countless hearings since then have found no culpability on Secretary Clinton’s part and certainly no malicious intent in the process of reporting the attack. The Gowdy hearings appear to have been politically motivated and have cost the taxpayers millions of dollars. It may be time for some hearings and editorials about the lies Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld told which led our nation into that unnecessary war on Iraq, precipitating this current crisis in the Mideast.

Audrey Mortensen, Lawrence

To the editor: It is good news that housing development in Lawrence is at an all-time record pace this year. But it is shameful that somewhere between 20 percent and 25 percent of Lawrencians are living in poverty, and too poor to benefit from it.

So where are our priorities? I found it understandable that a recent poll by the city showed the condition of our streets as our No. 1 concern. I believe that if we saw the condition of our neighbors in need on a daily basis, our conscience would call to more meaningful and urgent priorities.

The 2013 City of Lawrence Consolidated Plan estimates that 9,900 rental households are housing cost burdened, with 6,200 paying more than 50 percent of their monthly income for rent with 730 who are elderly. The city plan estimates that more than $90 million in subsidy would be required to address all of the various housing needs here.

Our city and county commissioners have verbally acknowledged the need. County commissioners recently approved our Housing Authority’s request for $50,000 for transitional housing assistance. While this is a good step forward, as a community we are actually two steps back because the federally funded transitional housing programs in Lawrence have been cut every year, from $300,000 in 2011 to $174,000 this year.

While our neighbors need rent support immediately, that won’t solve our problem. We need to create sustainable transitional, permanent and supportive housing stock. To enable this, a wellrun, well-funded affordable housing trust fund is essential to our community.

Steve Ozark, Lawrence

To the editor: The big election is Monday, Nov. 2.

No, it’s not for president, governor or even City Commission. This election is for the board of the East Lawrence Neighborhood Association (ELNA), and it’s as important as any for the people who live there.

East Lawrence, home to our city’s original town site and mainstay of a diverse working-class community, is beloved and unique. It is also vulnerable to the dreams and desires of those who see it as a blank canvas, i.e., an “up and coming” neighborhood. Engaging with the kinds of development pressures that can spur the displacement of residents due to economic and cultural shifts requires experienced and sensitive neighborhood leadership — that’s ELNA. By cultivating the civic spirit of residents and supporting the economic infrastructure and dynamic culture that make this wonderful place liveable for people of modest incomes, ELNA has for decades helped to sustain a healthy, colorful and thriving neighborhood. They continue that work today.

I give thanks to my peers on the current board (and our phenomenal coordinator) who exemplify the civic values that Lawrence prides itself on and who work to embody the Gwendolyn Brooks quote, that until recently, stood upon a mural in our neighborhood: “ We are each other’s harvest; We are each other’s business; We are each other’s magnitude and bond.”

If you’re an East Lawrence resident, please vote.

Dave Loewenstein, Lawrence

come down for the construction of a wide recreational path.

“We’d have to do work so it doesn’t feel like it landed from outer space onto the street,” Shelton said of the path. “I have truly mixed feelings about it.”

The other approach, he said, would allow the design team to keep much of the original plan, which includes green space in the public right-of-way to be used for social gathering.

“It’s a similar strategy,” Shelton said. “We could still pull off really interesting and subtle landscaping and still create the right kinds of places to meet and talk with one another. A lot of that

could roll over into this.”

The committee did not take formal action Wednesday.

Shelton will present drawings for both options during the committee’s next meeting, on Dec. 16, and members will either take a vote or just provide feedback.

The committee decided not to hold a meeting in November because of a delay in getting feedback from the Lawrence City Commission. The commission talked about the project earlier this month, after the appointment of new commissioner Lisa Larsen.

Shelton said next week he would provide an updated timeline of the project’s design process.

Ninth said Amyx, who serves on the committee. “I don’t think it’s a battle we need to do; I don’t think it’s smart. We do have businesses along Ninth Street that rely on trucks.

I think moving it would be wrong.”

Streets designated as truck delivery routes are required to have driving lanes at least 12 feet wide, Shelton said.

The current project design calls for two 10-foot driving lanes and two 4-foot bicycle lanes.

Shelton presented two ideas for reconfiguring the street: adding a landscaped buffer between bike lanes and larger driving lanes, with sidewalks on both sides, or having larger driving lanes and introducing a 10-foot “recreational path” on one side of the street.

Members of the 15-person committee cited positives about each option.

Emily Peterson, coowner of Merchants Pub & Plate, said the recreational path would be “a natural extension” of the Burroughs Creek Trail, which runs along a former railroad route from 23rd to 11th streets.

“I think if it’s done well it will make it feel integrated and organic,” Peterson said. “It would open up so much incredible activity.”

Shelton said he wasn’t leaning toward one option over the other, but the recreational path was “really a different approach” than the project’s current concept plan.

He also said some existing trees would have to

Tone gets tougher in third GOP debate

Two battles playing out on stage: Bush vs. Rubio, Trump vs. Carson Susan Page @SusanPage USA TODAY

Meanwhile, Ohio Gov. John Kasich led the charge against the field’s new front-runner, Ben Carson, saying his economic proposals were “a fantasy” and warning, “We’re on the verge of picking someone who perhaps cannot do this job.”

U.S. may boost role in Iraq, Syria Advisers may move closer to ground fight Jim Michaels USA TODAY

The Pentagon is considering plans that would place U.S. advisers closer to ground combat in Iraq and Syria in a move that could amount to a major escalation in its war against the Islamic State, a senior defense official told USA TODAY.

“It looks like they are proceeding or moving in that direction, where Secretary Carter and the president are prepared to take more risks in ensuring that we can actively ... degrade ISIS,” McRaven said.

In a first, Iran to join talks on ending Syria’s civil war Nuclear deal opened door to its inclusion Oren Dorell USA TODAY

Iran for the first time will join international talks about Syria’s civil war this week in Vienna, displaying the Islamic Republic’s newfound stature since agreeing to a nuclear deal with world powers.

Russia invited Iran to join the talks, and Iran accepted Wednesday, bringing Syria’s two closest allies to the table in support of

embattled President Bashar Assad, whose country is in the fifth year of a civil war that has killed more than 250,000 people and displaced half of its population.

The talks Thursday and Friday will involve about 12 countries, including the U.S., Turkey and Saudi Arabia, which back Syria’s opposition. President Obama has said Syria’s conflict cannot be resolved if Assad stays in power.

Secretary of State John Kerry said Wednesday that nations participating in the talks agree on the need for a political “transition away from Assad (that) preserves a united and secular Syria.”

Iran is a key ally to Assad, providing financial aid and forces it calls “advisers.” Russia in September launched airstrikes in Syria, saying it would target the Islamic State and other terror groups. But the U.S. say the airstrikes are aimed at Assad’s foes.

If the U.S. and Tehran meet face to face, it will be their first formal negotiations since reaching a nuclear accord in July.

Saudi Arabia and Qatar, plus other Sunni monarchies in the Persian Gulf, are the main suppliers of advanced weaponry to Syria’s opposition forces.

House GOP nominates Ryan for speaker 43 backers of rival likely to support him in full House vote Erin Kelly USA TODAY

Paul Ryan’s election as House speaker was all but assured Wednesday as the GOP conference voted in a closed-door meeting to nominate the 45-yearold Wisconsin Republican as their top leader.

The nine-term congressman still must be elected Thursday in a public vote by the full House.

But he cleared the biggest hurdle Wednesday when the fractious, 247-member Republican conference largely united behind him. If he is elected, Ryan will be one of the youngest speakers in history.

WASHINGTON

ANDREW HARRER, BLOOMBERG

“This begins a new day,” Paul Ryan said on Wednesday.

“This begins a new day in the House of Representatives,” Ryan said after the vote. “(Speaker) John Boehner served with humility and distinction, and we owe him a debt

of gratitude. But tomorrow we are turning the page. ... Our party has lost its vision and we’re going to replace it with a vision.”

Ryan said the country is “on the wrong track.”

“We think the country’s heading in the wrong direction, and we have an obligation here in the people’s House to do the people’s business and to give this country a better way forward,” Ryan said.

“We are going to respect the people by representing the people.”

The only other candidate besides Ryan running for speaker Wednesday was Rep. Daniel Webster, R-Fla. Webster received 43 votes while Ryan received 200, members of the GOP caucus said.

Ryan will need 218 votes to be elected speaker Thursday if all House members are present.

Most of Webster’s supporters are expected to vote for Ryan.

Ryan initially said he had no interest in the job when House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, announced last month that he planned to retire from Congress on Oct. 30. Boehner decided to leave in part because the rebellious Freedom Caucus, a group of about 40 conservatives, threatened to force a no-confidence vote on his speakership. Freedom Caucus members criticized Boehner for being too willing to compromise with Democrats to avoid a government shutdown.

House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., appeared at first to be the front-runner to succeed Boehner, but he abruptly withdrew his bid for speaker when it became clear that the Freedom Caucus would not support him and he could not win a majority of House members. Republicans then turned to Ryan,

Hampshire primary voters in a field that is likely to be smaller than the 10 candidates on stage for the main debate, not to mention four others in the undercard debate that preceded it.

The exception to the sharp elbows of the evening: Retired pediatric neurosurgeon Ben Carson, who announced in his first answer that he would abide by Ronald Reagan’s “11th Commandment,” not to speak ill of another Republican. That may have made others more reluctant to attack him, he wasn’t the central figure that Trump had been as the front-runner in the first two debates.

But Carson seemed uncertain in defending his proposal to replace the tax code with a flat tax, responding to a question about whether it would leave the government trillions of dollars short of what it now spends. The debate focused on the details of economic issues, not the social issues on which he talks more comfortably

on the stump.

“I didn’t say that the rate would be 10%; I used the tithing analogy,” he said. “The rate is going to be much closer to 15% ... and you also have to get rid of all the deductions and also the loopholes. ... It works out very well.”

At that, Kasich, a former chairman of the House Budget Committee, exploded in apparent exasperation.

“This is the fantasy that I talked about at the beginning,” he said. “You can’t do it with empty promises. These plans would give us trillions and trillions in debt.”

The question ahead is whether Carson’s low-key presentation, in stark contrast to Trump’s selfconfident bluster, will convince Republican primary voters that he would make a credible nominee and a competent president.

The Republican establishment only in recent weeks seriously had wrestled with the notion that a real-estate mogul and realityTV star could end up as the party’s nominee. Now Carson, gaining in polls, would be an even

who was seen as the one candidate popular enough to unite the divided GOP caucus.

Ryan said he would run only if he had the support of the three major Republican factions in the House: the Freedom Caucus, the conservative Republican Study Committee, and the moderate Tuesday Group. Ryan won support from all three factions last week.

Ryan was the 2012 Republican nominee for vice president and serves as the chairman of the powerful House Ways and Means Committee, a position he will have to give up to become speaker. Before that, Ryan served as chairman of the House Budget Committee, where he became known for his efforts to cut the deficit, slash government spending and overhaul costly entitlement programs.

Donald Trump campaigns at Trump National Doral in Florida last Friday. He has questioned rival Carson’s dealmaking skills. more unlikely prospect. A medical doctor, he would have the least extensive involvement in public affairs of a major-party nominee in modern times.

Asked about his strategy for Wednesday night’s forum, Carson told USA TODAY’s Capital Download this month that he had no plans to change his style. “The pundits after both of the first debates said, ‘Carson didn’t do that well,’ but my numbers went up, so I’m not really worried about the pundits,” he said.

“You’ll notice that I don’t criti-

cize anybody,” he said. “I remember we used to love doing that in the third grade, out on the playground — talk about this person’s clothes and his mama. The things that we have to deal with are so much more important than that.”

For several other candidates, the debate posed a nearly existential challenge.

Bush, viewed as the top contender before the race began, on Wednesday night had lost his position at the center of the stage, where positions were determined by standing in national polls. He

was forced to counter the perception that his heart isn’t really in it. “I’ve got a lot of really cool things I could do other than sit around being miserable,” he told a South Carolina audience last week.

But when he launched his attack on Rubio, the Florida senator was ready to respond in kind.

Later, Rubio had to respond to questions about controversies involving his personal finances. He dismissed them as Democratic attacks and said he wouldn’t spend his limited time to respond. “I’m not worried about my finances,” he said. “I’m worried about the finances of everyday Americans.”

Meanwhile, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz objected to questions being posed as media bias designed to encourage combat.

Ohio Gov. John Kasich launched the third Republican presidential debate Wednesday night by going after his fellow presidential contenders for scaring senELECTIONS iors over Medicare and Medicaid, threatening to deport 11 million immigrants, and putting forth tax plans that “don’t add up.”

“We are on the verge perhaps of picking someone who cannot do this job,” Kasich said in the first question of the debate, suggesting that the rest of the Republican field was too extreme.

“This stuff is fantasy. ... Folks, we’ve got to wake up.”

But the chief target of Kasich’s attacks — real estate mogul Donald Trump, who has led in many of the polls — shot back by questioning Kasich’s stewardship of Ohio’s economy and his work as a banker for Lehman Brothers dur-

Low-rung GOP presidential candidates, from left, Bobby Jindal, Rick Santorum, George Pataki and Lindsey Graham served as the warm-up act for the main event in Boulder, Colo. ing the financial crisis.

“He was so nice. He was such a nice guy,” Trump said. “And then his poll numbers tanked. That’s why he’s on the end (of the stage).

And then he got nasty.”

That set the tone for what was perhaps the feistiest Republican debate so far. Senators Marco Rubio of Florida and Ted Cruz of Texas even brought the CNBC

moderators into their fray, suggesting that Republicans were getting tougher questions than Democrats did during their debate.

“The questions that have been asked so far in this debate show why the American people don’t trust the media,” Cruz said, accusing CNBC of trying to turn the debate into a “cage match.”

One of those questions came from CNBC reporter John Harwood, who asked Trump about his plans to shrink the deficit by cutting taxes and make Mexico pay for a wall on the U.S. border.

“Is this a comic book version of a presidential campaign?” he asked.

“That’s not very nice the way you say that,” Trump responded.

non-military programs. It would also extend the nation’s borrowing limit through March 2017, when a new Congress and new president are in place.

The deal cleared the House 266-167, with Democrats providing the bulk of yes votes. Republicans were divided on the bill, with 79 voting yes; 168, no. No Democrats voted against the bill.

“We pushed through the gridlock to provide more economic certainty,” said House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif. She called the vote a “major victory ... for bipartisanship (and) for working families in our country.”

House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, and others hailed the measure, saying it was a fiscally responsible proposal that would restore order to Washington’s budget process and allow Congress to provide fresh investments in military and domestic programs alike.

Rep. Harold Rogers, R-Ky., chairman of the House Appropriations Committee, said the deal would “advance this nation toward our goals of fiscal stability, strong national security and entitlement reform,” and it will “roll back harmful, meat-ax approach” cuts to federal programs.

Most Republicans voted against the bill, which critics derided as an eleventh-hour agreement that handed President Obama and congressional Democrats a big spending victory.

“Another last-minute, backroom spending deal by the White House and congressional leaders that busts the budget caps and allows unlimited debt for the next 18 months,” said Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio. “No wonder so many Americans distrust Congress.”

Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., said the bill was paid for with a series of budget gimmicks that would come back to haunt lawmakers.

“Mexico is going to pay for the wall. ... A politician cannot get them to pay. I can.”

Rubio defended himself from a Fort Lauderdale Sun Sentinel editorial demanding he resign because of the votes he missed in the Senate while running for president. He said Democratic senators who ran for president — Bob Graham, John Kerry and Barack Obama — also missed votes and didn’t get similar treatment.

But Rubio’s onetime mentor, former Florida governor Jeb Bush, piled on. “When you signed up for this, it was a six-year term.

You should finish what you started,” he said. “The Senate, what is it, like a French work week, where you have to show up three days?”

The debate was sponsored by the CNBC financial news network and took place at the University of Colorado-Boulder. As with the two previous Republican debates, the Colorado event featured a preliminary session with the lower-polling candidates.

South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham dominated the “undercard” debate with a string of Trumplike one-liners.

“Somebody said, or maybe I saw it on the bill of a cap, ‘Let’s make America great again,’ ” Graham said, referring to Trump’s campaign slogan. “America is great. I intend to make America strong again.”

Divided House passes a 2-year budget deal Deirdre Shesgreen USATODAY

The House on Wednesday approved a two-year budget deal to extend the debt limit, boost spending and provide a respite from the fiscal brinkmanship that has gripped Washington in recent years.

The agreement, passed after an hour-long debate and a last-minute scramble for votes, would increase federal spending by about $80 billion over the next two years, with the new money evenly divided between military and WASHINGTON

“We’re robbing from the future to pay for today,” Issa said.

Boehner quietly negotiated the agreement with the White House and other congressional leaders, unveiling it Monday night as he prepared to resign his speakership and leave Congress. The Senate is likely to take up the measure soon, although a final vote may not come until Monday.

Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., who is running for president, said he will filibuster the measure. “I will do everything I can do to stop it,” Paul told reporters in Colorado.

‘DISTURBING’ TEST OF COPS PATROLLING HALLWAYS

Ex-speaker could stay mum on hush money Aamer Madhani USA TODAY

Des Moines school resource officer Deb Van Velzen counsels students at Lincoln High.

1 in 4 schools have at least part-time security, which riles civil rights groups Greg Toppo USA TODAY

A viral video of a South Carolina school resource officer slamming a student to the floor of a classroom is focusing attention on the increasing presence of police officers in schools. But cops in classrooms have long been a source of tension.

Richland County, S.C., Sheriff Leon Lott said an investigation found that the force Senior Deputy Ben AP Fields used to Lott: “Not arrest a student acceptable.” who was disrupting a class Monday at Spring Valley High School on Monday was “not based on training or acceptable.”

Fields was terminated from his job Wednesday, Lott said.

Communities nationwide have spent the past several years increasing the presence of police on school campuses, even as crime rates have dropped precipitously in the USA’s schools.

The National Center for Edu-

cation Statistics reported this year that the number of crimes against students has plummeted more than 80% since 1992, with the rate of victimization for students in the USA’s middle schools and high schools dropping from about 182 incidents per 1,000 students to 30 in 2013.

Yet in its most recent report on school safety nationwide, the Justice Department in 2014 said 43% of public schools reported the presence of one or more security guards, security personnel, school resource officers (SROs) or sworn law enforcement officers during the 2009-10 school year.

Civil rights groups have long said that cops in schools actually make safety worse for many children, increasing the likelihood that students will end up severely disciplined for minor infractions.

In early 2013, shortly after the Sandy Hook Elementary School shootings in Newtown, Conn., and amid calls for more armed police in schools, Advancement Project, a Washington, D.C.-based civil rights group, proposed that schools use the money they would spend on more police to develop long-term safety plans and invest in conflict resolution, as well as better access to mental health services for students.

“This thing went from a school discipline issue to a criminal matter in two minutes.”

Curt Lavarello, expert on school law enforcement

As part of its proposal, the group tracked school referrals to Florida’s juvenile justice system in 2010-11 and found that of 16,400 referrals, 69% were for misdemeanors.

On Tuesday, Advancement Project co-director Judith Browne Dianis said the video from South Carolina “underscores the problem with police in

schools.” Instead of de-escalating the situation, she said, the officer “dehumanized and criminalized a black teenage girl.”

Curt Lavarello, a school law enforcement expert, said that if administered properly, an SRO program “can have incredible value to schools.” Its most important effect is to help young people develop a trusting relationship with law enforcement. That pays dividends if they’re bullied or are crime victims, he said.

But the video that surfaced on Monday was “disturbing,” Lavarello said. “This thing went from a school discipline issue to a criminal matter in two minutes,” he said. Lavarello, who founded the National Association of School Resource Officers in 1991, said a well-trained SRO would have tried to “verbally de-escalate” the situation.

Civil rights groups say more police officers in schools often mean more suspensions, which disproportionately affect minority students. A study issued in February by the Civil Rights Project at UCLA found that since 1972, suspension rates for white students have risen 2 percentage points, from 3% to 5%. Meanwhile, suspension rates for African-American students nearly tripled, rising from 6% to 16%.

Military blimp goes AWOL for a joy ride Tom Vanden Brook USA TODAY

The Pentagon got

its blimp back.

It went AWOL from Aberdeen Proving Grounds in Maryland on Corrections & Clarifications USA TODAY is committed to accuracy. To reach us, contact Standards Editor Brent Jones at 800-8727073 or e-mail accuracy@usatoday.com.

Please indicate whether you’re responding to content online or in the newspaper.

Surveillance craft draws oversized attention Wednesday, snapping a more than 1-inch-thick cable and hitting the skies on a joy ride over eastern Pennsylvania.

It’s hard to hide when you’re a blimp. At nearly the size of a football field, this one attracted plenty of attention, tweets and two fighter jets. Sen. John McCain, RAriz., former Navy pilot and chairman of the Armed Services Committee, tweeted some advice during the chase: “Note to @usairforce: Follow that blimp!”

In the end, all they could do

was wait for the blimp to run out of steam. It did, about 4 p.m., near Moreland Township. While on the lam, dragging its cable, it blacked out power for thousands.

Surrounded by local law enforcement, the blimp awaited a team to haul it back. “Mostly deflated,” the military pronounced.

When on duty, the blimp serves as a key component of domestic air defense. It is part of a $2.7 billion surveillance system designed to detect cruise missiles, rockets, drones and other weap-

ons that could be used to attack key targets in the United States.

Breakaway blimp sounds better than its official name: the Joint Land Attack Cruise Missile Defense Elevated Netted Sensor System. “So everyone just calls it JLENS (pronounced jay-lens),” Raytheon, the contractor that built it, says on its website.

How the blimp slipped away is unclear. Its cable is made to withstand winds of 100 mph, and winds Wednesday at Aberdeen were about 12 mph with gusts to 23 mph. Defense Secretary Ashton Carter told reporters not to worry. He vowed to refloat it.

CHICAGO Former U.S. House speaker Dennis Hastert pleaded guilty Wednesday to making dozens of illegally structured bank withdrawals as part of an effort to pay hush money to someone from his past for decades-old misconduct.

Hastert pleaded guilty to one count in the indictment, which carries a maximum sentence of five years.

Under the plea deal, federal prosecutor Steven Block recommended that Hastert, the longestserving Republican speaker in history, be sentenced to zero to six months in federal prison.

A judge will rule on the terms of the sentence and could reject the prosecutor’s recommendation. Sentencing is set for Feb. 29.

But with the guilty plea, Hastert, 73, may be able to keep secret further embarrassing details about why he agreed to pay $3.5 million to an unidentified individual from Yorkville, Ill., the town Hastert had noEPA where he comment as he worked as a high left U.S. court school teacher Wednesday. and wrestling coach before entering politics.

Hastert, who was once the third-highest-ranking elected official in America, was surrounded by his attorneys and federal marshals who escorted him out of the downtown courthouse to a waiting car after the hearing. He did not comment to reporters.

The indictment, unsealed nearly five months ago, referred to the alleged wrongdoing by Hastert as “prior misconduct” against someone identified as “Individual A.” But federal law enforcement officials told USA TODAY Hastert made illegally structured withdrawals in an effort to conceal sexual misconduct he committed against a male student.

Hastert circumvented the federal requirement that requires banks to report withdrawals of more than $10,000. He was accused of withdrawing a total of $952,000 in increments under that threshold that were paid to the individual.

Block, the lead prosecutor, said Hastert made a total of 106 illegally structured withdrawals between July 2012 and December 2014.

“I didn’t want them to know how I was spending the money,” Hastert said in court. He did not reveal any details in his court statement about where he spent the money.

Take a second look at that wild salmon entree you paid a premium for in a restaurant. It’s likely mislabeled.

Oceana, an advocacy organization that’s previously found fraud in retail marketing of other fish, shrimp and crab cakes, released findings Wednesday that diners were misled in restaurants when ordering salmon 67% of the time.

The most common mislabeling was labeling farmed salmon as pricier, more sustainable wild salmon.

Oceana also tested salmon in grocery stores, finding it was dramatically less likely to be mislabeled — about 20% — and that large grocery stores were significantly more reliable with salmon sourcing than small markets.

COST TO VW: ‘ENORMOUS BUT MANAGEABLE’ Volkswagen executives on Wednesday signaled that the cost of the automaker’s emissions scandal will mushroom but indicated the company can absorb the blow. New Volkswagen CEO Matthias Mueller acknowledged the $7.3 billion in provisions Volkswagen set aside in the third quarter will cover only fixes. It does not include the cost of penalties and potential customer compensation. That means the bill for the scandal could escalate to more than $25 billion. The company declined to offer a specific estimate. It will be “enormous but manageable,” the company’s new financial chief, Frank Witter, told news reporters.

mall stocks have delivered under-sized gains in the big rally after the stock market’s first correction in four years, a sign investors are moving away from less-speculative stocks and reducing risk.

Once bull market leaders, small-company stocks — which are deemed as more speculative, high-flying investments — have turned to laggards.

The performance math since the market bottom tells a story of investors’ diminishing infatuation with small company stocks and a renewed preference for more stable, safer and solid bluechip stocks. The Russell 2000, an index of small-company stocks, has rallied just 8.8% since its correction low Sept. 29. In contrast, the 30 big blue-chip companies in the Dow Jones Industrial Average are up 13.5% since its late-August low and the large-company Standard & Poor’s stock index has jumped 11.9%.

“The larger the stock, in terms of market (value), the better the returns have been (recently),” noted Paul Nolte, a money manager at Kingsview.

Small caps lost their leadership status in July.

With market volatility on the rise, an interest rate hike from the Federal Reserve on the horizon and some signs of a weakening economy, investors no longer are swinging for the fences.

“I’m not surprised to see small cap underperforming in recent weeks,” says Michael Farr, CEO of

The Federal Reserve held off on raising interest rates Wednesday but signaled a hike could come as early as December despite recent speculation that a slowing economy will prompt the central bank to wait until next year.

With job gains weakening markedly the past two months and the government BLOOMBERG expected to report Janet third-quarter eco- Yellen nomic growth of less than 2% at an annual rate Thursday, the Fed’s decision to keep its benchmark rate near zero was widely expected.

The central bank hasn’t lifted the rate in nearly a decade, and it has been near zero since the 2008 financial crisis.

But in a statement after a twoday meeting, the Fed said, “In determining whether it will be appropriate to raise the target rate at its next meeting,” the Fed will assess progress toward its goals of maximum employment and 2% WASHINGTON

After lagging in market rebound, small caps are losing favor to more stable blue-chip stocks

RICHARD DREW, AP

Traders such as Mark Puetzer are finding investors trending back to the safety of the Dow and S&P 500.

“Markets are nervous. So the larger companies become the havens.”

David Kotok, chief investment officer at Cumberland Advisors

money-management firm Farr, Miller & Washington. “Smaller companies are generally deemed to be more speculative investments compared to large caps. As volatility has increased, some investors may have sought the relative safety of large caps with their strong balance sheets and cash stockpiles.”

Unlike big companies that can fund themselves from within,

smaller companies are more dependent on external sources, which is becoming more difficult as credit markets tighten ahead of coming rate hikes, experts say.

“Markets are nervous,” says David Kotok, chief investment officer at Cumberland Advisors. “So the larger companies become the havens.”

The market advance has become more narrow, too, with fewer stocks powering the advance as worries have increased, prompting investors to seek out bigger, better-known stocks that have proved they can boost sales and profit in a slower-growth economic environment. Dominating the performance charts recently, for example, are the so-called “TFANG” shares, an acronym that stands for technology, Facebook, Amazon.con, Netflix and Google parent Alphabet.

Tried-and-true stocks are in vogue. Small upstarts are out of favor. And that new trend could have legs.

“Leadership off the lows has been all about large caps vs. small caps and we continue to anticipate this has longer-term implications,” Jason Trennert, founder of Strategas Research Partners told clents in a research note, adding that market leadership has come from the top ranks, or the stocks with the biggest market values in the S&P 500.

“If you haven’t owned the right ones or the big ones, returns remain more difficult to find,” Trennert added.

So-called “safe” sectors in the S&P 500, such as utilities and consumer staples, have emerged amid an investor shift to higher levels of risk-aversion.

Here we go again: Fed hints at possible rate hike in December Paul Davidson

Stocks trip but regain footing; Dow rises nearly 200 points Adam Shell @adamshell USA TODAY

Wall Street at first reacted negatively when the Fed left rates unchanged and signaled a December rate hike was still possible, but then it rebounded with the Dow ending up nearly 200 points.

The Dow Jones industrial average, which had been up about 100 points just before the Federal Reserve announcement at 2 p.m. ET, tumbled and briefly turned negative. But it rebounded to finish up 198 points, or 1.1%. The Standard & Poor’s 500 rose 1.2%, and the Nasdaq composite gained 1.3%.

The Fed’s statement sent a annual inflation. That marks the central bank’s first reference to bumping up rates at a specific meeting. Fed policymakers will gather Dec. 15-16.

In recent weeks, financial markets and many economists have sharply reduced the odds of such a move. But tellingly, the Fed on

clear message to Wall Street that it keeps a December rate hike on the table, says Russ Koesterich, BlackRock’s global chief investment strategist.

“The Fed is telling the market that the December meeting is very much live,” Koesterich says. But he doesn’t think a rate hike of a quarter of a percentage point, with rates near 0%, will kill the bull market in stocks. Bear markets normally are caused by an aggressive Fed, which he does not see, or a recession, which he says is not the “most likely outcome” at the moment.

The odds of a rate hike are rising in futures markets. Before the Fed statement, the odds of a December rate hike were about one in three, but now are up closer to 50-50.

Wednesday suggested recent headwinds have eased. It dropped an assertion from its previous statement that global and market developments “may restrain economic activity somewhat” and further suppress inflation.

Instead, it simply cited global and financial developments. Chi-

na’s slowing economy has performed modestly better than expected and stocks have rallied.

The Fed said the economy “is expanding at a moderate pace,” echoing its fairly upbeat September outlook. Policymakers noted “the pace of job gains slowed” recently but added that the unemployment rate “held steady” and household spending and business investment “have been increasing at solid rates.” And it added that labor market slack — such as part-time workers who prefer full-time jobs — “has diminished since early this year.”

The Fed reiterated that the risks to its outlook are “nearly balanced” and that it will boost rates when it “has seen some further improvement in the labor market” and is “reasonably confident” inflation will drift back to its 2% goal over the mediumterm.

The generally positive appraisal appeared to distinctly leave the door open to a December move.

“The Fed sent its clearest signal yet that, pending decent data, it has the December meeting in its sights for the first rate hike,” economist Michael Feroli of JPMorgan Chase wrote to clients.

Some policymakers, such as Richmond Fed chief Jeffrey Lacker, believe the Fed already should have hoisted rates. He dissented again Wednesday.

AMERICA’S MARKETS What to watch Adam Shell @adamshell USA TODAY

The Federal Reserve’s statement Wednesday hinted strongly that an interest rate hike may still be on the table for December.

And stocks rallied on the news.

Maybe a rate hike is not the end of the world for stocks. Maybe the Fed finally moving off 0% rates could signal that the U.S. economy can finally stand on its own two feet without the benefit of Fed steroid-like stimulus. Maybe the Fed’s slightly more upbeat assessment of the economy is good news, and good news is again good news for the stock market. And maybe, just maybe, Wall Street is starting to warm up to the idea that now’s the time to start normalizing rates.

The stock market’s bullish re-

Twitter stock risky until it figures itself out Q: Can I make money on Twitter?

Matt Krantz

mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY

A: Twitter is struggling to find its reason to be. Investors will need to be patient in the meantime.

Shares of Twitter have been a point of pain for investors this year, with shares dropping 14%. Twitter’s latest quarter didn’t do much to inspire confidence in the company, which allows users to send short messages to each other. Results during the third quarter actually came in double what Wall Street analysts expected. But the problem is the company’s future. Analysts now expect the company to earn just 12 cents a share in the fourth quarter, which is 36% lower than what was called for six months ago. Twitter is struggling to show mainstream online users why it’s worth the trouble.

Wall Street analysts continue to think Twitter has a future; it’s just going to take longer to become clear. Shares are rated “outperform,” and analysts think the stock could be worth $34.31 a share in 18 months. If correct, that would be nearly 12% upside from the stock’s current price of around $31 a share.

But Twitter remains a highly risky stock that’s only for investors able to lose money. New Constructs, which compares the stock price to the present value of expected cash flows, rates the stock “dangerous.” It’s a speculative bet for investors willing to take a big chance.

Icahn buys large stake in AIG, calls for break into three parts Kaja Whitehouse USA TODAY

Billionaire investor Carl Icahn is advocating insurance giant AIG be broken into three parts, a call that already is getting support from another large shareholder.

In a letter to AIG CEO Peter Hancock on Wednesday, Icahn blasted AIG as “too big to succeed,” a riff on the popular “too big to fail” phrase that emerged from the financial crisis.

In the letter, he demanded Hancock rectify the situation by pursuing “tax free separations of

HEIDI GUTMAN, CNBC

Carl Icahn wouldn’t disclose his stake in AIG except to say in a tweet that it is “large.”

both its life and mortgage insurance subsidiaries to create three independent public companies.”

The third company would be AIG’s core property and casualty

business. Icahn also called for AIG to “embark on a much needed cost control program.”

Icahn — known for making waves at companies he invests in — told Hancock he is not alone in his belief AIG needs to downsize and quoted fellow billionaire hedge fund manager John Paulson making the same request.

An AIG breakup “is frankly overdue,” Paulson is quoted as saying in Icahn’s letter. “By separating into three independent companies, reducing unnecessary corporate overhead, operating at average industry returns, and buying back stock, AIG can trade

at over $100 per share — 66% above its current $60 price,” the head of Paulson & Co. said.

Shares of AIG rose 4.9% Wednesday to $63.89 following the news.

“AIG maintains an open dialogue with all our shareholders and welcomes their feedback and ideas,” Hancock said in a statement on AIG’s website.

Hancock says he and his management team have been working on simplifying the company and that they hope to “continue and accelerate those efforts.” Hancock said he expects to provide an update on their progress at the company’s “regularly scheduled

earnings call on Tuesday.”

But Icahn’s letter suggests the company has been too slow, despite shareholders’ request for more dramatic change.

“We believe there is no more need for procrastination, the time to act is now,” Icahn told Hancock. “I cannot fathom how you could ignore repeated requests from shareholders to execute a plan that would release billions of dollars of capital, free the company from onerous excess regulation, and leave shareholders owning stock in three separate, market leading insurance franchises.”

It was vocally challenging,” says Chenoweth, who jumpstarted her career with a Tony Award in 1999 as Sally in Broadway’s ‘You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown.’ Voicing Fifi was a show of respect to the late Peanuts creator Charles M.

‘ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE’

Comedy portrays them as ‘cool’, but movie team is prepared for a backlash

Bryan Alexander @BryAlexand USA TODAY

Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse features young men doing their honorable best to stop a full-on zombie onslaught.

But be prepared. When the raunchy R-rated comedy opens in theaters Friday, it will show uniformed Scouts gleefully hitting a strip club, killing zombies with zeal and even burning their own troop leader (OK, he turned zombie and had that coming).

Some will call this awesome entertainment. The Boy Scouts of America? Not so much.

The 105-year-old national organization, whose media representatives declined to discuss the movie’s mischief, directed USA TODAY to a post at ScoutingWire.org. “Moviegoers might assume the characters are actual Boy Scouts,” the post reads. “To be clear, they are not.”

The BSA accepts screen imitations but saves a special place of scorn for Zombie Apocalypse, which does not reflect “how Scouts should live out the Scout Oath and Scout Law.” “The film is a form of speech that is protected by the First Amendment,” the post reads.

“That freedom, while not absolute, applies to even works of

dubious artistic value.”

“We wanted our film to be entertaining in a wild and outrageous way,” says producer Todd Garner. “Because of that, we chose to work independently from the Boy Scouts of America.”

Director Christopher Landon incorporated the fictitious American Scouts Society and designed uniforms that felt “relatable and sort of iconic.”

The scout characters provide instant emotional resonance as good kids (played by Tye Sheridan, Logan Miller and Joey Morgan) dealing with growing pains in a society that doesn’t always respect outward wholesomeness.

But, most important, the young scouts are prepared to step into action.

“If there’s a takeaway from this, it’s that our scouts are clever, smart and nimble,” Landon says.

“These guys are cool and they save the world.”

Jackson Meyer, 23, an Eagle Scout from Corvallis, Ore., sought and received BSA permission to wear his uniform on NBC’s American Ninja Warrior competition.

Meyer says he’s curious enough to check out the movie.

“It’s rated R, for sexual encounters, nudity and violence.

Those are not facets of the Boy Scout life,” Meyer says. “I’m not stoked about it. But I’m probably going to see it. I want to see how they represent Scouts in this odd and weird way with a very interesting storyline of a zombie apocalypse.”

Denise (Sarah Dumont) Ben (Sheridan) and Carter (Logan Miller) face off against the undead.

After digging up a headless corpse, the Bones team needs some help getting to the marrow of the matter. Enter Sleepy Hollow’s crime-solving sleuths, who step out of their supernatural realm for a two-hour crossover episode Thursday (Fox, 8 p.m.

ET/PT). Bones star David Boreanaz and Sleepy’s Tom Mison tell USA TODAY’s Patrick Ryan what to expect in the creepy crossover: Q: What did you make of the crossover when you first heard about it?

Boreanaz: I didn’t even think of it as a possibility. My first reaction was, “Well, there’s the supernatural world of what they’re doing and the only real resemblance is that they’re both trying to solve things.”

Mison: I thought it was a terrible idea. They’re two very different worlds: the Sleepy Hollow world of the supernatural and the pragmatic, logical world of Bones.

But I knew David was very, very excited about working with me, so I said, “Yes, this is a great idea.”

When we got on set, it suddenly made perfect sense.

Boreanaz: Not to mention, Crane wears this badass long coat that I’d like to steal from him. I want to wear it on Bones.

if I’ve mentioned that.

Boreanaz: We got a speech before you guys came over to be really nice to you. All joking aside, it was fun. It was fun sharing stories between takes about what you do in Atlanta and obviously Tom’s life — he just had a new baby. At one point, he wanted to stop production for tea, which, on our set, is always happening. We all got along great.

TINA ROWDEN, FOX

Tom Mison and Nicole Beharie of Sleepy Hollow appear with Emily Deschanel and David Boreanaz from Bones.

Q: When Crane arrives at the Bones Jeffersonian lab, no one knows what to make of him. What was most fun about that?

Mison: It’s nice to have a change of scenery — it’s like walking into Crane’s dream. In fact, there’s a line about the Jeffersonian Institute, how it’s exactly what Thomas Jefferson wanted.

And Jefferson, of course, was Crane’s idol. So to see it brought

to life, he was overwhelmed and loved every second of it.

Q: How was the atmosphere on set?

Mison: Very frosty. Both teams were on either side of the set just eyeing each other up. It’s like school discos, with the girls on one side and the boys on the other. I had met David before. We had met at a few Fox things and I knew he was very excited about working with me — I don’t know

Q: How do you celebrate Halloween? Do you pull pranks on each other like Brennan and Booth do?

Boreanaz: There weren’t really many pranks. I thought about bringing out the fart machine, but maybe next time. I don’t know how they’d respond to it. I mean, Tom’s got a great sense of humor, coming from across the pond.

They have a different way of looking at things.

Mison: We don’t really get into Halloween in quite the same way (in England). I’m looking forward to a big Atlantan Halloween.

Boreanaz: What’re you going to dress up as?

Mison: I’m going to dress up as you. I stole clothes from your trailer, I’m so sorry.

Boreanaz: FedEx me those boots and that coat, and we’ll be good to go.

Two to go WORLD SERIES

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

KU golfer ‘Mook’ making the most of talent For most, golf amounts to a cruel tease. Regression follows improvement, over and over. The average golfer essentially runs in place thinking half the time that a great distance has been covered, convinced the horrors of the game have vanished from the rear-view mirror.

In so many ways, Yupaporn Kawinpakorn is not like most “Mook” golfers, even beyond her obvious superior physical talent, contained in a 5-foot-2inch frame.

Known by everyNahm one by her nickname “Mook,” a senior on the Kansas University women’s golf team, she has a legitimate shot to contend for a national title.

“Everybody in Thailand has a nickname,” Mook said. “Our names are so long.”

So are her tee shots. In fact, she estimated, that at an average of 240 yards, they’re 30 yards longer than three years ago.

As a freshman in 2012-13, Mook, a native of Samutprakan, Thailand, set a school record with a 75.42 stroke average, rewrote the record (74.46) as a sophomore and did so again as a junior (73.35). In five events this season, her average is 71.21.

Josh Nahm, chief instructor at Firekeeper, former head of famed Hank Haney’s junior program and a Lawrence resident, has guided her through each phase of improvement.

Mook repeatedly references him when asked about her ascent toward the top of college golf.

As a freshman, Nahm gave Kawinpakorn the road map to straighter drives and she worked until she had that down. Then Nahm, with the help of launch monitors and searches for the just-right equipment to suit her game, taught her how to add distance to her drives and iron shots.

Again, she made it happen. The next challenge, turning good swings into lower scores by managing the round well, kept her improvement rolling.

The shots went straighter and longer, the decisions became wiser, and the scores became lower and lower. Still, one statistic screamed that the toughest step remained unscaled.

The yards no longer were a problem. It was the toughest six inches in sports she needed to free, that vast, vague, vital expanse of gray matter that extends from the left ear to the right.

Entering the season,

Cueto’s two-hitter puts Royals up 2-0

KANSAS CITY PITCHER JOHNNY CUETO, RIGHT, celebrates with Alcides Escobar at the end of the seventh inning during Game 2 of the World Series on Wednesday night.

Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — Following the final out, after Johnny Cueto completed his two-hitter, several hundred fans remained in Kauffman Stadium, wanting one more look at the Kansas City Royals.

The next time they see Eric Hosmer and his teammates may be in a parade.

After smothering the Mets, 7-1, on Wednesday night with Cueto and their pesky offense, the Royals have a 2-0 World Series lead and can capture their first title since 1985 when play resumes at New York’s Citi Field this weekend.

Hosmer thought about Kansas City’s seven-game loss to the Giants in 2014.

“There’s still a lot of work yet to do,” he said. “Last year we took a 2-1 lead in San Francisco and were feeling pretty good about ourselves.”

Kansas City wore down Jacob deGrom with persistence and prowess, then pounced.

Hosmer hit a tiebreaking, two-run single with two outs in a four-run fifth inning that included 14 foul balls.

Nineteen hours after Hosmer’s sacrifice fly won a 14-inning thriller, Cueto varied his delivery with occasional quick pitches and kept the Mets off balance. An excited crowd stood on its feet for long stretches to cheer on the rainy night. Some fans wore wigs resembling Cueto’s long, dark dreadlocks — including the Royals’ mascot, Sluggerrr.

The teams take Thursday off then New York’s Citi Field hosts its first Series game Friday, when rookie Noah Syndergaard starts for the Mets and Yordano Ventura for the Royals.

With OU next, Jayhawks’ linemen to get no rest

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

A week ago, in a 58-10 loss at Oklahoma State, the Big 12’s top-ranked pass rush ate up the Kansas University offense for a pair of sacks and eight tackles for loss.

So what does KU get for surviving that onslaught? A Please see KEEGAN, page 4C date with the conference’s

second most ferocious pass rush Saturday at Memorial Stadium, where the winless Jayhawks will play host to 14th-ranked Oklahoma at 2:30 p.m.

OU’s 25 sacks in seven games this season place them two behind the Cowboys, who lead the Big 12 and rank third in the nation. Both teams are aver-

aging just under four sacks per game, and the Sooners, who hit Texas Tech for four sacks in a 63-27 victory last week, could have the luxury of facing a KU team playing without its top tackle.

KU coach David Beaty said earlier this week that left tackle Jordan ShelleySmith was dealing with a

concussion that knocked him out of last week’s loss. Even though he was in uniform at Wednesday’s practice, it sounds like a longshot that Shelley-Smith will be able to play.

That leaves the Jayhawks facing the real possibility of Please see FOOTBALL, page 3C Shelley-Smith

KANSAS BASKETBALL

Texas big man plans to reveal choice

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Blue-chip big man Schnider Herard, a 6-foot-10, 255-pound senior center from Prestonwood Christian Academy in Plano, Texas, will announce his college choice next Wednesday, the day of Kansas University’s first exhibition game against Pittsburg State.

Herard — he has a final four of Kansas University, Mississippi State, Purdue and Texas Tech — has not yet revealed a time for his announcement, which will likely take place at a school assembly.

Herard as a junior earned first-team all-

state honors in helping Prestonwood Christian to its fourth consecutive state championship.

He scored 23 points and grabbed six rebounds in Prestonwood’s title win over Trinity ChristianAddison.

A native of Haiti who has been in the U.S. three years, Herard once had Texas, Oklahoma and Oklahoma State on his list of schools. He’s ranked No. 34 in the Class of 2016

by Rivals.com.

“Schnider had, I think, 34 scholarship offers and narrowing that down from 10 to five, he was looking for where he might play right away and which programs are going to use their big guys,”

Derrick Shelby, Herard’s guardian, told goldandblack.com.

“The most important thing in his decision is going to be the ability to play right away,” Shelby added. “That’s No. 1. So many kids go to these schools and sit there for a year or two. He’d like to be able to play right away. There’s no question about that. That’s the No. 1 criteria.” l Giles sets date, too: Harry Giles, a 6-10 senior center from Oak Hill Academy in Mouth of Wilson, Virginia, will announce his college choice on Nov. 14 at the Phenom Hoop Classic in Lewisville, N.C., his mom told

Phenom Hoop Report.

Giles, who is ranked No. 2 nationally, has a final list of KU, Duke, Wake Forest and Kentucky.

“I think consensus everybody thinks he’s going to Duke and because of the attraction of staying close to home and because Jayson Tatum (Duke commit) is a friend of his,” Oak Hill coach Steve Smith told Zagsblog.com recently. Giles hails from Winston-Salem, North Carolina.

“They (Blue Devils) have the last visit (this weekend) and that was done purposefully and that was a good move on their part I think because when the smoke clears and his head’s

spinning a little bit now he goes to Duke for the final visit, so it’s going to be interesting,” Smith added. l Morris starts: Former KU forward Marcus Morris, who has earned a starting spot with the Detroit Pistons after mostly coming off the bench with the Phoenix Suns, had a strong season-opener on Tuesday. He scored 18 points and grabbed 10 boards in a 106-94 win at Atlanta.

The 6-foot-9 Morris, who hit six of 19 shots, told the Detroit News he likes playing for coach Stan Van Gundy. “(Van Gundy) does a great job of giving me

the ball in the spots I like it,” Morris said. “He did a great job of continuing to come to me, miss or make. My confidence is very high right now. The more I play, the more comfortable I’m going to get.”

Morris, who followed that performance with 14 points and six rebounds in a 92-87 home win over Utah on Wednesday, added: “We had a hard training camp and we didn’t put as much work in as we did to come out and lay eggs. We’ve been working really hard and it showed that we’re for real and serious and we’re going to keep trying to grind out games and try to win games.”

Kansas volleyball Royals earns 20th victory

J-W Staff Reports

Ames, Iowa — Kansas University sophomore Kelsie Payne slugged a career-high 26 kills with four blocks as Kansas University’s volleyball team bounced back from its first loss of the season with a 3-1 victory over Iowa State on Wednesday night in Hilton Coliseum.

Payne committed just three errors in (20-1, 8-1) KU’s 20-25, 28-26, 2515, 25-20 victory, which came on the heels of Saturday’s 3-0 loss at Texas.

The Jayhawks actually moved back into a firstplace tie with Texas, following the Longhorns’

starting two freshmen (Larry Hughes and Clyde McCaulley) at the tackle positions against an Oklahoma front that features three seniors and three juniors on its two-deep depth chart at the four defensive line positions.

Add to that the fact that true freshman quarterback Ryan Willis will be making just the fourth college start of his career, and it’s fair to say the Sooners (6-1 overall, 3-1 Big 12) will have a significant experience advantage when Kansas drops back to pass.

“I know when you’ve got a young quarterback, I’m going to come after him and see if I can get some hits on him,” Beaty admitted. “So they’re going to do that.”

Missed tackles an issue Beaty said earlier this week that the Kansas defense missed 23 tackles and gave up 212 yards to the Cowboys as a result.

That number was a season-high, and, although Beaty and defensive coordinator Clint Bowen both credited the Oklahoma State offense for some of the missed tackles but said breakdowns by the Jayhawks led to a lot of them.

“On 53 percent of our chances, we made the tackle. That means we missed half of the tackles in that game,” Bowen said. “I don’t want to take anything away from Oklahoma State, but (OSU running back Chris) Carson and those guys aren’t that good. Nobody’s that good.”

While a lack of fundamentals and proper technique was a big reason for the breakdown, Bowen said one other element accounted for most of the problem.

stunning 3-0 setback at TCU on Wednesday.

TCU is now 6-3.

Madison Rigdon totaled 11 kills, while Tayler Soucie and Janae Hall had seven apiece. Soucie had eight blocks and Hall four rejections.

Ainise Havili had 46 assists and 20 digs. Tiana Dockery had 13 digs and four kills, while Cassie Wait contributed 12 digs.

Jess Schaben had 15 kills, Morgan Kurht 14 and Ciara Capezio 13 for (13-7, 6-3) Iowa State, which was trying to catch second-place KU in the Big 12 standings.

KU will next meet Baylor at 11:30 a.m., Saturday, in Horejsi Center.

“A lot of times it’s a slow reaction that puts you in a bigger space to make a harder tackle. A lot of it is that; we’re just not getting the point of attack quick enough and we’re putting ourselves in position to have to make extremely tough tackles.... Our read-andreact phase, we’re not there yet.”

Wyman improving For the second week in a row, junior Matthew Wyman handled the Jayhawks’ punting. And for the second week in a row, Wyman’s average climbed above 40 yards.

In to replace the struggling Eric Kahn midway through the Texas Tech game, Wyman finished that day with three punts for a 42.3-yard average.

Last week, he hit eight punts for an average of 43.1 yards.

“I’m very impressed,” Beaty said of his new punter. “He doesn’t have a whole lot of technique, but, man, he can hit it.

I said before, he’s got a powerful, powerful leg.

He’s got some talent that you don’t see in a lot of kids. He’s really doing a lot of that off just throwing that ball out there and kicking it. He’s starting to work on technique to get better.

Injury update In addition to the likely absence of their left tackle, the Jayhawks will be without safety Greg Allen (groin) and linebacker Schyler Miles (knee) this week against the Sooners.

Allen is expected to miss most, if not all, of the rest of the season, and Miles, who did not play at OSU, is dealing with nagging knee issues that have plagued him throughout his career.

Junior quarterback Montell Cozart also remains out, though he was throwing lightly on the sideline at Wednesday’s practice.

Forty-one of the 51 teams to take 2-0 leads in best-of-seven World Series have gone on to win the title, including nine straight since Atlanta stumbled against the New York Yankees in 1996.

Kansas City had the best contact hitters in the major leagues this season, missing on just 19.7 percent of swings, according to STATS. The Dodgers and Cubs swung and missed 58 times in deGrom’s first three postseason outings, but he got just three swings and misses against the Royals — his career low.

“We don’t swing and miss,” Royals manager Ned Yost said. “We find ways to just keep putting the ball in play until you find holes.”

Of deGrom’s 94 pitches, 23 were fouled off by the Royals.

“I told Jake not everything has to be a strike,” Mets manager Terry Collins said. “You’ve got to move it around. You’ve got to change speeds, give them something to look at. If you continue to pound the strike zone, they’re going to put it in play, and that’s what they did.”

Cueto has struggled on the road, where opposing fans taunt him by repeating his name in a sing-song voice. But since the Royals acquired the free-agent-to-be from Cincinnati in July, he’s been Johnny on the spot at Kauffman Stadium.

He pitched two-hit ball over eight innings to win Game 5 of the Division Series against Houston, and Kansas City lined up its Series rotation to have Cueto starting Games 2 and 6 at home.

Cueto struck out four and walked three in the low-hit Series complete game by an AL pitcher since Boston’s Jim Lonborg threw a one-hitter against St. Louis in 1967.

ROYALS PITCHER JOHNNY CUETO delivers against the New York Mets during Game 2 of the World Series on Wednesday night at Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri. Cueto pitched a two-hitter in the Royas’ 7-1 victory.

Both New York hits were soft singles by Lucas Duda, an infield roller to third that took advantage of the shift in the second inning and an opposite-field RBI single to left in the fourth. Cueto let loose some emotion at the end of the eighth inning, when Alcides Escobar made a nifty play to retire Juan Lagares for the final out. As Escobar sprinted past him, Cueto exchanged a flamboyant high five with the shortstop.

After Yoenis Cespedes flied to center for the final out, Cueto pointed to the sky and was congratulated by catcher Salvador Perez. Cueto pitched the first Series complete game by an AL pitcher since Minnesota’s Jack Morris won Game 7 against Atlanta in 1991.

“That’s what they brought me here for, was to help win a World Series,” Cueto said.

Volquez heads home for father’s funeral Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic (ap) —

Royals pitcher Edinson Volquez said Wednesday that he didn’t know whether he would be ready to play in the World Series once he returns to the U.S. following his father’s funeral in the Dominican Republic.

Volquez said he was in a lot of pain as his eyes welled with tears while he attended his father’s memorial service a day before the funeral.

“Losing a loved one is hard,” he said. “My father was everything to me, and he supported me in everything throughout my career. We won the game, but I would have

changed that if it meant he could still be alive.”

His father, 63-year-old Daniel Volquez, died of heart failure just before the right-hander started Game 1 of the World Series against the New York Mets on Tuesday night.

Volquez said he learned about his father’s death when he stepped off the mound after allowing three runs over six innings.

“My wife was waiting for me with the general manager and they told me what had happened after I finished working,” he said. “I want to thank my teammates for all their support, to (Johnny) Cueto and Yordano

(Ventura), who were the first ones to call me.”

Volquez said he would return to the U.S. on Friday or Saturday. “But I don’t know if I’ll be ready for that appearance,” he said.

The Royals were hopeful that Volquez would rejoin them when they head to New York later in the week.

“Last thing Eddie told the guys last night when he left is, ‘I’ll see you in New York,’” Kansas City manager Ned Yost said before Game 2 Wednesday night.

“I expect Eddie to be there and ready to go for Game 5,” he said.

The Royals and Mets

have a day off today.

Game 3 is set for Friday night at Citi Field.

It was the elder Volquez who introduced his son to the game, buying his son his first glove — a Pedro Martinez model.

“I can definitely understand what he’s going through right now,” said Royals third baseman Mike Moustakas, whose mother, Connie, died of cancer in August. “When someone loses a family member, that takes priority over everything that happens. Baseball is baseball, but family, things that happen like that — that’s something that is more important than baseball.”

“He told me just stay aggressive because I’m a very aggressive player.

I go, ‘Boom! Boom! right to the pin. Just go for it.’

Those were her only top-five finishes. She’s closing like a shark in bloody waters.

Nahm has a built-in advantage, a spy almost, in taking Mook’s mental temperature. Josh’s wife, Katy Nahm, is KU head coach Erin O’Neil’s assistant, and is with Mook daily.

Katy was a sounding board for Mook in the middle of her best round, a 63 in the Schooner Fall Classic

“I got it going that day,” Mook said. “I was so in the zone. After I finished my nine holes, I saw coach Katy and we walked on down to 10. I said, ‘Coach, I think I just shot 6-under the front nine.’ She was like, ‘I know.’ When I started three, four under, the words of Josh came into my mind: ‘Hey, don’t get nervous. This is the score you’re supposed to shoot every time. It’s very normal. Just think like that every time.”

After the 63, Mook asked Josh Nahm, ‘Do you like how I shoot

BAKER UNIVERSITY FOOTBALL

Wildcats work through tough times

By Chris Duderstadt cduderstadt@ljworld.com

Baldwin City — For the third straight season, Baker University’s football team finds itself in the top 10 of the NAIA coaches’ poll with a 7-1 record with three weeks remaining in the regular season.

The No. 3-ranked Wildcats have built their foundation on the defensive side of the ball — limiting opponents to 15.9 points per game — while also scoring early and often behind junior quarterback Nick Marra.

“We’ve been a big-time first-half team,” head coach Mike Grossner said. “To me, that tells you that our preparation has been really good, Khadijah Lane/The Baker Orange and our coaching from a BAKER UNIVERSITY LINEBACKER KHARON BROWN, RIGHT, who played at Lawrence High, makes a tackle against Avila on game-plan situation has Oct. 17 in Kansas City, Missouri. been really good.”

One critical piece to the in a loss to C-SC, and C-SC, 58-0, and the score Lawrence after the school by Blakesley, who played

offense that allows Marra to throw the ball all over the lot is sophomore Cornell Brown. Brown is listed as a wide receiver on Baker’s roster, but is also frequently used out of the backfield after playing running back at Baldwin High. The versatile offensive and special teams weapon has accounted for 681 total yards and six touchdowns. The 5-9, 180-pound sophomore has emerged after former FSHS quarterback and BU running back Camren Torneden took Brown under his wing last season.

“I learned a lot from him (Torneden) last year.

I knew Cam growing up,” Brown said. “One of his cousins was my best friend, so I’ve looked up to him for a while since he was playing at Free State. When I got to come here and watch him play his senior year and watch him play a lot, it helps.”

One other influence on Brown early in his college career has been fellow Baldwin High product Jesse Austin, who starts at left guard for BU. Austin, left tackle Greg Snell from Eudora and right guard Kyle Wittman from LHS have paved the way for Brown and company in the backfield, and helped keep Marra upright.

“Nick’s attitude and his play style make it even more fun to block for him,” Austin said of blocking for Marra. “Getting to pass (protect) as much as we have has been awesome.”

Unfinished business If there is a player who knows the ins and outs of the Baker football program better than anyone, it’s Austin. The 6-5, 315-pound lineman grew up attending Baker games every Saturday, and described the team as “a lot more family-oriented this year.”

Austin and his teammates still have a bad taste in their mouths from missing the playoffs last season, but he believes the team is better for it now after learning valuable lessons about football and life in 2014.

The Wildcats still have the end of the 2014 season in mind, but their focus is geared forward. Baker controls its own destiny in the south division of the Heart of America Athletic Conference with three regular-season games remaining against Central Methodist, Evangel and Missouri Valley and Central Methodist, and looks to return to the postseason for the third time in four years.

“It’s just nothing more than a game of king of the hill, and your goal is to move up on the hill,” Thoren said. “There is no doubt I know what’s in the back of their mind, and what’s in their eyes is a national title.”
