‘From watermark to watermark, it’s public property’

KU professor leading huge climate study U.S.-Mongolia project will cover 18 rivers on two continents

By Sara Shepherd Twitter: @saramarieshep

Leading the broadest-ever study of river macrosystems is bound to take one to some remote territory.

The next few summers will find Kansas University professor James Thorp and teams of researchers in areas of Mongolia up to eight hours away This is the from the nearest city.

They’ll be sleeping in largest-scale yurts, trolling vast rivers study that’s in jonboats and plucking specimens from giant ever been Mongolian trout and oth- done.” er fish and water insects.

They’ll do similar work — James Thorp, on U.S. rivers — cover- Kansas University ing 18 rivers in all, nine in professor each country.

Thorp is lead investigator on the study, enabled by a recently announced $4.2 million National Science Foundation grant. He said KU is getting about half of the hefty grant total, and the rest will be divided among eight other universities he’s teaming with, including one in Mongolia.

“We want to do this to help both countries predict changes and maybe control their environment better than we do now,” Thorp said. “We want to understand how to manage rivers.”

The study’s ultimate goal is two-fold, said Thorp, a professor of ecology and evolutionary biology and a senior scientist with KU-based Kansas Biological Survey.

Lawmakers revive police body camera requirement talks Topeka (ap) — Kansas lawmakers will again take up the question of whether to require all law enforcement officers to wear body cameras after a similar proposal failed to gain traction last session.

Rep. John Rubin, a Shawnee Republican, will hold a legislative hearing next week on the issue. He supports police body cameras but acknowledged several things must be resolved, such as whether to require all levels of law enforcement to use them, how to pay for the cameras and outlining rules for storing and accessing recordings, the Kansas City Star reported.

Proposals to require body cameras for law enforcement became widespread after the August 2014 fatal shooting of 18-year-old Michael Brown by a police officer in Ferguson, Mo. The officer was not wearing a camera.

Party CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

lifelong fan of the Royals, Chiefs and Kansas University Jayhawks was anything but speechless after the New York Mets’ final batter struck out in the bottom of the 12th inning of Game 5 of the 2015 World Series.

“Nobody expected us to do this. Even when the season started, we were picked third,” Lassley said.

Shortly after the Royals’ victory, a sea of fans — numbering well into the hundreds — poured out of the bars and onto Massachusetts Street for a spontaneous block party/victory celebration.

“We’re a team, and that’s why we won,” Lassley said. “It’s just so unbelievable to see a great group of guys win a Series not only for themselves, but for Kansas City and for the metro area, and for everyone

“I see this as a win-win for everybody,” said Rubin, who thinks cameras help the public and reduce misconduct allegations against police.

Sen. David Haley, a Democrat from Kansas City, Kan., believes officers should wear cameras and always have them on while interacting with the public. He said the videos should be kept for 90 days and that privacy issues could be resolved.

In Missouri last session, some lawmakers fought such proposals and even introduced bills to prohibit the state from requiring officers wear cameras.

Missouri Rep. Galen Higdon, a St. Joseph Republican, said cities, counties and their law enforcement departments should make decisions about body cameras. Serious privacy issues, particularly for officers, haven’t been resolved, she said. who’s been a Royals fan their entire lives. We’ve waited for this for 30 years.”

Karl Kollmeier was passing through Kansas on his way from California back home to Venice, Fla. He had stopped in to Free State Brewing Co., where a crowd of about 50 Royals fans was allowed to stay half an hour past closing time.

“I didn’t know it was gonna happen, but it’s wonderful,” Kollmeier said. “It was a great game, and it’s wonderful to be here in Kansas, and in Lawrence. I love it.”

For Lassley — who may or may not go viral in a YouTube video shot when he leapt onto the stairs inside the bar, leading the crowd in victory cheering — the threedecade wait was well worth it.

“You have to have patience and let the championship team build,” he said.

“We’re the ones out on the water, watching,” Buehler said. “It’s my job to be the river’s voice.

Every time something happens there needs to be someone saying, ‘Hey, what about the river?’

The river has to have a voice and the communities need to be held accountable.”

The Kansas River, also known as the Kaw, is a public waterway, Bueler said, which means it belongs to everyone.

“A lot of people don’t know that,” she said.

“From watermark to watermark, it’s public property. The sandbars are public property — you can use the driftwood for a bonfire. You can fish or camp off the sandbars. You don’t need a reservation, you don’t need a permit, you can just go out and enjoy the sandbars.”

Raised along the river’s banks near De Soto, Buehler was able to camp, boat and fish along the river throughout her childhood. It was then she first developed such a strong fondness for the body of water.

“I used to go and sit on the De Soto River Bridge when it was easier to do that,” she said. “I’d go up and sit on the bridge and watch the sun set right on the Kansas River. It’s one of the most gorgeous sunsets you’ve ever seen.”

But although Buehler grew up with the river in her back yard, it was more difficult for the general public to access the river back then, she said.

“If you owned property of course you had access; that’s how I got on it,” she said. “We used the river a lot, but we had access. Anyone who didn’t couldn’t always get to the river.”

Now, however, the Friends of the Kaw have worked to install nearly 20 public boat ramps up and down the length of the 173-mile-long river, Buehler said. Two more are scheduled for construction in the near future.

“It’s really meant to be a water trail,” she said.

“You can start in Junction City (where the river begins) and go all the way down, and there will be a boat ramp every 10 miles.”

In 2012, largely because of the advocacy of the Friends of the Kaw, the Kansas River was officially designated a National River Water Trail.

The organization also plans group floats, Buehler said, each with a different mission.

With the floats, Buehler will take groups of people, familiar faces and strangers alike, up and down the waterway, she said. There, they can help clean litter and debris, keep an eye on the river, and learn about the ecology.

Laura Calwell, who held the Kansas Riverkeeper position for 12 years before Buehler took over, said the group has also worked for years to move sand dredging operations out of the river beds and into pit mines to help conserve the river’s sandbars.

Calwell has since taken over as the group’s education director. She

travels to area schools and teaches children about river conservation, water testing and more.

Although Friends of the Kaw have accomplished so much over the years, Calwell said she anticipates the river will face ongoing pollution problems, particularly when it comes to agriculture.

However, it’s a challenge Buehler seems up for, Calwell added.

“I’m really impressed — she’s got great communication skills, she’s very personable, and she’s very passionate about the river,” Calwell said. “I think she’s going to do a fabulous job.”

This fall, Buehler worked with the cities of Eudora and De Soto to organize the first Great Kaw Adventure, said Sara Ritter, executive director of De Soto’s Chamber of Commerce.

Also a De Soto native, Ritter had heard about Buehler’s advocacy efforts, but this was the first time the pair had been able to work together.

“I’ve known of her for quite some time,” Ritter said. “So it was like working with a friend. She was very supportive of the Great Kaw Adventure and obviously has a great passion for the river.”

The event consisted of 15 two-person teams dashing between the two towns. At different points, the teams would canoe, cycle and run, facing challenges along the way, Ritter explained.

The race was meant as an opportunity to teach participants and observers about the river, encouraging them to use it and instructing them in how to care for it, Buehler said.

The groups hope to make the Great Kaw Adventure an annual event, Ritter said. And part of that effort will include Buehler’s expertise.

“She has a lot of knowledge about the river. We leaned on her quite a bit,” Ritter said.

Educational experiences such as classroom visits or the Great Kaw Adventure are of the utmost importance, Buehler said. Because the Kansas River draws its water from such a large portion of the country, the more people who understand the issues, the better.

“The river has a 53,000-square-mile watershed, which includes parts of Nebraska and Colorado,” Buehler explained.

“We get water into the Kansas River from a very, very big area. And we need to be aware of what we can do as consumers and individuals about the water quality. We need to be concerned about the things that we put on the ground or down the drain.”

These days, Buehler and her husband live on a small farm south of Eudora. The two raise chickens and grow enough crops for themselves and those close to them. Although the couple doesn’t own land on the river, Buehler says she tries to get onto the water at least once a week. It’s where she feels at home, and it’s a place worth fighting for, she added.

“The only thing that matters in the end is that the Kansas River is healthy, has a good water quality,” she said, “and that we can all use it.”

‘Everybody gave the same effort’

By Rochelle Valverde Twitter: @RochelleVerde

T

he tents and yellow plastic barriers had been packed away, but the timer suspended over the finish line at the Kansas Half Marathon on Sunday was still counting the minutes. A group of fewer than a dozen people, looking west down Seventh Street, began cheering as Jim Moody approached, and as the red digits rolled toward 4:05, Moody gave the finish line a stomp as he crossed it.

Moody, of Eudora, had completed his first half marathon, and as he caught his breath, he was handed a prize for being

one of its final finishers.

Though the winner of first place had crossed the line almost three hours earlier, the presenters of the event said they wanted to recognize more than just the fastest runners.

“We have people running today for closer to four hours, and that shows a level of endurance, both physical and mental, that deserves to be celebrated,” said J. Jenkins, co-owner of Ad Astra Running, which presented the race.

After Moody received congratulations from a group of friends gathered at the finish line, his first reaction was forthright.

“It hurts,” he said, then added, “I made it.”

More than 1,500 runners participated in Sunday’s Kansas Half Marathon, which is the first in the three-part Harvest Half Series. Proceeds from the Lawrence race benefited Health Care Access, 330 Maine St., a clinic for low-income individuals without health insurance.

Ad Astra Running, 16 E. Eighth St., a locally owned store that opened four weeks ago, awarded gift certificates to seven runners throughout the pack wearing Ad Astra Tshirts, from the first to the final finisher in intervals of approximately 250.

Jenkins said the awards were in line with the idea of the store, to serve runners of all levels, ranging

from beginners to those who have been running for decades.

“There are a lot more people that are toward the middle or back of the pack,” Jenkins said. “We wanted to award the effort and courage they’re displaying to attempt a half marathon.”

The top finisher overall was Jared Fox, of Lawrence, with a time of 1:17. Moody was the last runner to win a gift certificate and said he thought the staggered awards were a great way to support the running community.

“Everybody gave the same effort,” he said, “from people who finished first to people who finished last.”

Plans filed for river trail cafe in North Lawrence

I

’m guessing you are much like me in that when you are biking on the Kansas River levee trail, you sure wish you had some biscuits and gravy. Not only are they good, healthy fuel for the body, I’ve also found that well-made gravy that wicks off my Spandex really lubes the bike chain. Well, I don’t know if biscuits and gravy are on the menu, but it appears plans are in the works for a new North Lawrence cafe along the levee trail.

Plans have been filed with the LawrenceDouglas County Planning Department to remodel a small building at 239 Elm St. into a cafe that will serve the North Lawrence community and particularly users of the nearby river levee trail.

Stain concrete for a polished, sophisticated look

C

oncrete stains can provide a rich and unique color to an otherwise plain surface, but staining concrete with traditional methods can be a daunting task. Using natural products such as iron sulfate or copper sulfate to stain concrete is an easy, economical and environmentally friendly way to give old concrete a new look.

Step 1: Use a mild detergent and a scrub brush to clean the concrete thoroughly.

Every imperfection will show through the stain. It is imperative that the surface is as clean as possible to start with.

Step 2: After the first cleaning, use a putty knife or scraper to remove dried paint, dirt and other debris. Use a citrusbased degreaser to remove oils and greasy residue.

Step 3: Fill any cracks or divots with a concrete patching product. Let the product cure completely before staining.

Step 4: Clean the surface one more time. Rinse with clear water and sweep the area with a stiff broom.

Step 5: Use duct tape and plastic to protect surrounding surfaces from the stain.

Step 6: For a light orange or terra cotta color, mix 1/4 cup iron sulfate with 2/3 cup warm water. Iron sulfate is also known as ferrous sulfate or copperas and can be found in most hardware stores or garden centers alongside the fertilizers. For a darker stain, add a couple of tablespoons

Step 7: For a bluish green stain, mix 1/4 cup copper sulfate with 1 cup warm water. Cooper sulfate is sold as root killer in the plumbing aisle of most hardware stores.

Step 8: Wear protective clothing and avoid inhaling any fumes.

Step 9: Apply the stain solution with a brush, sponge, mop or garden sprayer. Work in small sections at a time, mixing more stain as needed.

Step 10: Allow the solution to dry. Wipe up excess stain and residue with a sponge or mop.

Step 11: For a deep, darker color, apply a second coat. With a third coat, very little stain will absorb. The extra moisture may cause efflorescence (white salt deposits) on the concrete surface. If this happens, scrub the surface with a stiff brush and rinse with clear water.

Step 12: Rinse the surface thoroughly with clean water.

Once the surface is dry, apply a concrete sealer. The sealer will protect the concrete and darken the stain, giving it a rich, finished look.

don’t call for that area to be industrial.

But the parking issue will be one that will require the city to think a bit differently. The development group acknowledges that the site probably can’t meet the parking requirements for a restaurant use. But the group also notes that there is a city-owned parking lot just down the street from the property.

It is that lot right at the corner of North Second and Elm streets. In its application, the development group said it likely will file for a city variance that would allow the project to proceed without the required number of parking spaces.

The group would propose that motorists visiting the cafe could park in the city lot. Plus, the cafe expects a large number of its customers to be people who have traveled to the area either on foot or via bike. In addition, a photo of the site

makes it look like there is a little bit of parking available on-site.

Infill development in the city can get tricky, but the alternative is development on the outskirts of the city that creates concern about sprawl. This little project could be a nice test to see how willing the current City Commission is to modify regulations to accommodate infill development.

Davis is no stranger to dealing with infill development, especially in North Lawrence. He was the developer behind the renovation of the minidowntown area that exists in North Lawrence.

I’m talking about the area at the intersection of North Seventh and Locust streets. It houses some antique shops and other such retailers. It has been generally wellreceived by the North Lawrence residents and has become a nice draw for specialty shoppers.

part of the group seeking to redevelop the area around Johnny’s Tavern in North Lawrence. As we’ve previously reported, the group has received approval from the City Commission to make that area more of a retail/entertainment area that better ties into the adjacent Kansas River with a boardwalk and other such features.

Werner is also involved with that project. The approvals came some time ago, but the project hasn’t progressed. My understanding, however, is the idea is still alive, but finding retailers and working with the various federal agencies that regulate the area near the levee makes it a slow-moving process. I’ll ask about its progress, though, when I hear back from the group.

Climate CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

One: Study Mongolian rivers to predict the effects of future climate change on U.S. rivers.

Two: Study U.S. rivers to predict the effects of future development on Mongolia’s rivers.

The temperatures in Mongolia are changing three times as quickly as the northern temperate zone, which includes the United States, Thorp said. Researchers hope to study water and organisms in Mongolian rivers to reveal what changes may be in store for other parts of the world as the climate warms.

In the United States, rivers are full of dams, non-native fauna and invasive species, Thorp said. By studying species here, researchers hope to shed light on what changes future development could spark in Mongolia.

Mongolia’s rivers, by comparison, are virtually untouched. There, Thorp said, only a few rivers even have bridges over them and there are no dams — though the country is planning to build a large one on its Selenge River.

“These are all native fauna in Mongolia,” he said. “Whereas in the U.S. we’ve introduced a lot of species ... also, we have a lot of dams.”

Unprecedented scope What makes this project pioneering is its breadth, Thorp said.

Many have studied smaller sections of or certain populations in rivers, while this project tackles entire river systems — part of the National Science Foundation’s MacroSystems Biology program.

“This is the largestscale study that’s ever been done,” he said.

“Large-scale research has been undertaken by a minority of scientists working on lakes, oceans, terrestrial

another 1,200 in its virtual school — curriculum adoptions for the elementary level range from $500,000 to $750,000, and between $50,000 to $100,000 for the middle and high school levels, said Angelique Nedved, assistant superintendent of teaching and learning. For instance, the district’s new elementary reading curriculum for this school year cost about $750,000, she said.

The district’s plan to create a pilot course with only open resources is part of a new U.S. Department of Education campaign, #GoOpen, to encourage states, school districts and educators to use openly licensed educational materials. The Lawrence school district is one of 10 districts nationwide that have taken up the #GoOpen challenge to replace at least one textbook with open resources within the next year.

“The idea would be that instead of purchasing curriculum and resources, they would gather curriculum and resources from many open, free sources and put

habitats and streams, but all of us together represent a minority of the scientists in our fields.”

The grant is for five years, and Thorp said he expects participating researchers — who will include KU graduate students — to publish throughout. He said he hoped to have the majority of papers published within a year after the initial grant period, or six years.

KU’s Dan Reuman, associate professor of ecology and evolutionary biology, is a coprincipal investigator on the project. Others come from Kansas State University, Ball State, Drexel, Rutgers, South Dakota School of Mines and Technology, University of Nevada Reno, Wayne State College and National University of Mongolia.

U.S. rivers to be studied include the Platte, Niobrara, Humboldt, Bear and Snake, according to a news release on the project from KU. In Mongolia, researchers will look at rivers within similar “ecoregions,” such as grasslands or mountain steppes.

Fin clips and food webs Field research will focus on three areas, Thorp said.

One is the overall “metabolism” of rivers, which will involve testing water for oxygen and using acoustic Doppler to measure flow and discharge.

Another — Thorp’s area of expertise — is food webs. This involves deciphering what different species eat and how complex their webs are.

Testing tissue specimens — the plan is to harvest fin clips from fish, as opposed to live animals — using a new technique called “amino acid stable isotope analysis” can reveal what organisms have ingested, Thorp said.

The third area is biodiversity traits, such as organisms’ lifestyles, travel patterns and

“Weaving all the information together will require the intellectual abilities of most of the scientists and graduate students involved in the project,” Thorp said. “Different people will have different focal areas.

that together into a course shell,” Doll explained.

Nedved said the district already has about 20 courses — referred to as course shells or course masters — that use openly licensed resources to some degree.

The courses have been in place for about two years and use a combination of licensed and open resources.

The #GoOpen pilot course will rely entirely on open resources, and will likely be at the middle or high school level, she said.

Doll traveled by invitation to Washington, D.C., on Thursday to participate in an Open Education Symposium hosted by the USDE and the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy. Educators at the symposium were joined by representatives from education technology companies and nonprofit organizations that have committed to working alongside the 10 districts, according to a U.S. Department of Education news release. The companies and organizations will create new tools to help educators find, adapt, create and share resources.

The symposium included state and district superintendents and other

educators from across the country, and Doll presented about the district’s experience so far in implementing open sources.

“It’s easy to say we should just pull different resources instead of buying them,” Doll said. “But you have to vet them to make sure that they’re good, and then you have to keep it updated.”

Because of the time and expertise needed to create an open resource curriculum, Nedved said the decision as to which course to pilot will be one made in conjunction with both administrators and teachers.

The teacher of the pilot course will receive a supplemental contract for the time and effort to put the curriculum together, she said.

U.S. Education Secretary Arne Duncan announced at the symposium that as part of the #GoOpen campaign, the USDE is proposing a new regulation that would require all copyrightable intellectual property created with USDE grant funds to have an open license.

“That is big,” Doll said.

“That’s going to open up a lot more resources for schools and universities to use.”

ia-Alcala said. The altar includes the favorite foods and drinks, pictures and mementos of the deceased, as well as religious objects, flowers and the brightly decorated ceramic or sugar skulls the holiday is often known for in the United States.

“There is just a huge amount of effort and intention, that it’s almost like prayer,” she said.

Valdivia-Alcala said the idea of the two worlds being briefly united — even for Mexican-Americans who have been living in the United States for generations — is in contrast with

Western notions of death or the afterlife as something to be feared.

“Look what we’ve done with death,” she said.

“We’ve separated it so much from life.”

Attendees at the event could decorate a paper tracing of a skull, and various artwork or figurines were on display. The exhibition put together by the Lawrence Art Guild included about a dozen works in different mediums that represent the holiday. The art can be viewed until Saturday at Head Rush Salon, 1401 Massachusetts St.

just such an (expletive),” said state Sen. Jim Denning, an Overland Park Republican who serves on the Senate’s budget committee.

“We’re not going to go through it again.”

Instead, Brownback and his aides are likely to consider targeted spending cuts and other budget adjustments, such as shuffling money among various government accounts, state budget director Shawn Sullivan said.

Top legislators oppose reducing aid to public schools, but Sullivan said, “I’m not going to officially take it off the table at this point.”

Kansas has struggled to keep its budget balanced after Republican legislators slashed personal income taxes in 2012 and 2013 at Brownback’s urging in an effort to stimulate the economy.

They managed this year to preserve most of the past income tax cuts but did it by giving Kansas one of the nation’s highest state sales tax rates and boosting taxes on cigarettes by 50 cents a pack.

Today, state officials are to learn whether October’s tax collections met expectations after falling short in recent months. At the end of the week, economists, legislative researchers, Sullivan and others from Brownback’s administration are scheduled

to issue new revenue projections meant to guide budget decisions.

Kansas’ current fiscal forecast projects state tax collections of $6.2 billion for this fiscal year and $6.4 billion for the fiscal year that begins in July 2016. The state’s total annual budget is $15.3 billion. After recent tax collections fell $67 million, or 4.7 percent, short, Kansas is expecting to have little in the way of a cushion of cash reserves at the end of June 2016.

The administration will work immediately on budget-balancing measures, Sullivan said, acknowledging there will be pressure to re-examine the state’s operations and ask, “Can we do it better?”

“From that aspect, I don’t know that it’s a bad thing,” Sullivan said.

Both Denning and House Appropriations Committee Chairman Ron Ryckman Jr. expect forecasters to cut revenue predictions — and leave the state with a projected deficit in its current budget that could exceed $100 million.

Kansas isn’t alone in facing budget issues: The national economy grew only 1.5 percent from July to September, according to the federal government.

The U.S. has seen a “tepid” recovery since the end of the Great Recession in 2009 and there’s no expectation of a change, said Arturo Pérez, a fiscal analyst with the Na-

tional Conference of State Legislatures.

Low inflation has made both wages and prices — and the taxes tied to them — grow slowly, according to Don Boyd, fiscal studies director for the Rockefeller Institute of Government in Albany, N.Y. Plus, the stock market has remained “flat” over time, which is likely to lessen a state’s taxes on capital gains.

“A lot of states are finding that the economy’s a little bit weaker than they forecast,” Boyd said.

Kansas Revenue Secretary Nick Jordan struck an optimistic note, pointing to the state’s unemployment rate, only 4.4 percent in September, and the fact that individual income tax collections are running slightly ahead of last year’s.

But Kansas saw no net collections from taxes on oil and natural gas production in July, August and September, and sales tax collections during the same period were 3.2 percent below expectations.

“People are still a little nervous about the economy,” Jordan said.

Siblings’ behavior obnoxious, but make peace Dear Annie: For my mother’s 80th birthday, my three siblings and I planned a catered dinner to celebrate. We agreed to split the cost four ways and updated each other frequently on the details. Mom chose the menu. Everything seemed to be going well.

When we received the quote for the meal, I discovered that two of my siblings had made changes to the menu, including the amount of beef ordered and the type of chicken served.

Also, the two of them decided the cost should be per person instead of an even split. This change seemed to be directed at me since I have the largest family.

That was a month ago and I am still a little irritated. The extra money doesn’t bother me. What does is the hijacking of the party

When siblings are paying for a joint celebration, all of the costs and details should be discussed and agreed to by everyone unless someone opts out. Perhaps your siblings thought you would balk at the idea of a per-person distribution, but if you have a much larger family, it

‘Ski’ appalls like a guinea pig massage Bravo finds a new venue for horrible people. You don’t normally associate snowy mountaintops with exposed buttocks, plunging necklines and tattoosaturated epidermis, but the makers of “Apres Ski” (9 p.m., TV-14) managed to find them.

Set in a posh resort in British Columbia catering to those with more money than brains, “Ski” follows the excesses of a clientele who brazenly lust after a staff that goes to extremes to entertain folks at this snowy retreat with a Las Vegas vibe.

Just when you think you’ve seen every kind of demanding behavior, a guest requests a full body massage — for a pet guinea pig.

All I can say about these Marie Antoinette wannabes is, “Apres Ski: Le Deluge!” The avalanche can’t come soon enough.

She’s back! Barbara Walters, the journalist whose career arc traces television news’ collapse from respectability (interviewing world leaders) to tabloid trash (hiring Jenny McCarthy for “The View”) returns to prime time. Perhaps she’s found her niche with “Barbara Walters Presents American Scandals” (9 p.m., ID, TV-14).

First up: A return to the JonBenet Ramsey case.

Filmmaker David Holbrooke honors his father, Richard Holbrooke, with “The Diplomat” (7 p.m., HBO), a profile of a man whose career spanned 50 years of foreign policy making, from the earliest days of America’s role in Vietnam through the Balkan crises of the 1990s and 21st-century conflicts in Pakistan and Afghanistan. He is most acclaimed for brokering peace in the former Yugoslavia.

He died of heart failure in 2010.

David Holbrooke has access to a wealth of footage of his famous father as well as interviews with Bill and Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, Madeleine Albright, Henry Kissinger, Al Gore, Diane Sawyer and Samantha Power. His decision to include segments about researching his father’s files as well as behind-the-scenes moments during the film’s production adds more length than insight. At 104 minutes, “The Diplomat” turns a celebration of an important man’s life into bit of an endurance test.

Kara battles both selfesteem issues and a Kryptonian renegade on “Supergirl” (7 p.m., CBS, TV-PG).

Knockout rounds continue on “The Voice” (7 p.m., NBC, TV-PG).

K-10 plans State highway officials have listened to community concerns and made a key adjustment in plans to rebuild a section of Kansas Highway 10.

T

he Kansas Department of Transportation has listened to local feedback and made one important positive change to the plans to expand the western leg of the South Lawrence Trafficway, also designated as Kansas Highway 10.

However, it will be interesting to see how many times those plans change between now and 2020, which KDOT says is the earliest that actual work on the project could begin.

Last week, KDOT outlined revised plans for expanding the two-lane bypass to a four-lane road. The major change was the inclusion of an interchange at Clinton Parkway. KDOT engineers earlier had recommended that interchange be eliminated and replaced with access roads diverting traffic to the new interchange under construction at Bob Billings Parkway. Members of the public, as well as the Lawrence City Commission and Douglas County Commission, expressed strong opposition to that plan, which would have dumped more traffic onto Bob Billings and made access to Clinton Lake less convenient.

As envisioned before, the current Wakarusa Drive interchange would be moved south and east, with new roads providing access to the Youth Sports Complex. The current access from Kasold Drive would be eliminated.

KDOT engineers said plans for those interchanges are pretty firm, but they are less certain about a proposal to eliminate access to North 1800 Road (the Farmers Turnpike) from the northwest end of the trafficway. KDOT sees some advantages to that plan, which would include construction of a new Kansas Turnpike interchange to provide more direct access to Lecompton, but more study may be warranted. At least at this point, it seems like an expensive solution to a relatively minor problem.

Probably the most disappointing aspect of this conversation is the realization that there will be a gap of at least several years between the opening of the new four-lane eastern leg of the SLT in late 2016 and the widening of the western leg, sometime after 2020. No money has been dedicated for the western leg, and, with the continuing diversion of state highway funds to cover other budget shortfalls, the prospects for future funding are in question.

Hopefully, the designs that KDOT engineers are preparing now still will be applicable by the time construction begins.

Washington — “That’s awkward.”

This surely was the response of many viewers watching the chaotic, illmoderated GOP debate Wednesday night. But maybe its weirdness became the debate’s selling point.

Advertising experts say that awkwardness is a peculiar attribute of the national mood these days. Many television commercials end with a deliberately awkward moment, where the characters make non sequiturs, or say things that make others uncomfortable, or otherwise look like miscast nerds.

The point is: Awkward sells. It takes the edge off. It’s fashionably geeky. It’s antielitist. It’s memorable in its otherness. And it’s inclusive: For, really, what’s more down to earth and American than feeling awkward?

It wasn’t the candidates’ fault that the debate seemed so uncomfortable. That was more CNBC’s problem.

And it didn’t seem to hurt the politicians in terms of likability. The public, alas, probably perceived the bad guys as the journalists asking hard questions.

Amid all the interruptions and snapbacks, the politicians seemed normal, in an advertising sort of way: Chris Christie does a superb male version of Josephine the Plumber, especially when he

“

The obvious, overwhelming fact about this campaign is that the candidates who have done best are the ones who don’t look or talk like politicians.” looks right at you and tells you how great he is. Donald Trump was born to sell anything. Carly Fiorina could replace Flo, the Progressive insurance girl — the smartest person in the room, but slightly annoying, too. How could you not feel sorry for them, all together onstage?

What do the advertising gurus tell us? “Just about everyone in the culture today is feeling out of sorts, clueless, uncomfortable. So a play on awkwardness has more universality,” says Randall Rothenberg, a former New York Times advertising columnist who’s president of the Interactive Advertising Bureau.

“Wear your awkwardness

on your sleeve” is the rule for marketers, especially those hoping to sell to the millennial generation, says Simon Dumenco, a media columnist for Advertising Age. He notes that the hot network shows these days celebrate a kind of nerdy uneasiness, as in “The Big Bang Theory,” or “New Girl.”

Advertisers pick up this social bedrock of discomfort and mistrust. Explains a recent post from The Futures Company, an affiliate of the advertising marketing giant WPP: “’Awkward’ is a funny thing. While it can be painful to watch, sometimes it has a way of reconnecting us with the real world — not just one of cliches, stereotypes, and formalities. Awkwardness is intriguing because not all of us are socially appropriate, which can remind us of what being human really means.”

Lindsey Kirchoff, writing for the blog “How to Market to Me,” takes it a step further: “If you’re trying to tap into the millennial market, awkward is the new cool.” What’s slick is untrustworthy. That’s one reason that, according to an online marketing newsletter called clickz.com, “84 percent of millennials don’t like traditional advertising.” Convincing messages connect with consumers’ anxiety and mistrust.

Which brings us back to those GOP candidates on-

stage in Boulder. The obvious, overwhelming fact about this campaign is that the candidates who have done best are the ones who don’t look or talk like politicians. Trump and Ben Carson are topping the charts because they lack conventional campaign resumes, not in spite of that.

The anti-candidates are the ones a dispirited electorate seems to trust.

The same logic explains the poor showing of the conventional candidates, especially Jeb Bush. He appears so perfect for the part — a creature of GOP central casting — that modern political consumers seem to tune him out. Sometimes he looks like a guy pitching wealthmanagement services during an ad break at “The Masters” golf tournament.

Maybe Bush’s best hope is that he, too, has an inner awkwardness that surfaces in unscripted encounters.

Does Trump sometimes seem a bit awkward, as he barks his sound bites, oblivious to what he’s supposed to say? Is Carson a bit eccentric, with his gentle speech and doe-eyed look? That’s the point.

I hope this “awkward” moment will pass before the primaries start. But it does connect with something powerful in the national mood.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Nov. 2, 1915: “The city of Lawrence was confronted today by a years demand for restitution of ago property destroyed by a IN 1915 mob. A bill for $21 was filed with the city commissioners at their regular weekly meeting by W. E. Beattie, who had an outhouse burned

by University students while a football rally was in progress one night last week.

The bill was not paid this morning. The commissioners decided that a conference should be held with Chancellor Strong and the student council of the University…”

Iran anti-Semitism may defy deterrence Washington — Yale historian Timothy Snyder is indebted to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who recently made Snyder’s new book even more newsworthy than his extraordinary scholarship deserves to be. And Netanyahu is indebted to Snyder, whose theory of Hitler’s anti-Semitism is germane to two questions: Is the Iranian regime’s antiSemitism rooted, as Hitler’s was, in a theory of history that demands genocide? If so, when Iran becomes a nuclear power, can it be deterred from its announced determination to destroy Israel?

Netanyahu recently asserted, again, that a Palestinian cleric was important in Hitler’s decision to murder European Jews. Netanyahu said that on Nov. 28, 1941, when Hitler supposedly preferred to expel Europe’s Jews rather than exterminate them, Haj Amin al-Husseini, Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, met with Hitler and urged him to “burn them.”

Certainly the Mufti favored genocide; he certainly was not important in initiating it. Mass murder — the Holocaust — accompanied the German army, especially after the September 1939 outbreak of war, and especially after the June 1941 invasion of the Soviet Union. Granted, it was not until the January 1942 Wannsee Conference that the “final solution” became explicit. But by the time Hitler met the Mufti, approximately 700,000 Soviet Jews had been shot. Snyder, not Netanyahu,

“

The idea of anti-Semitism is uniquely durable and remarkably multiform. It can express a mentality that is disconnected, as in Hitler’s case, from calculations of national interest.”

should be heeded concerning the Holocaust’s genesis.

Attempts to explain Hitler’s obsession with Jews began with the idea that he was unfathomable, a lunatic “Teppichfresser” (carpet chewer).

In 1996, however, Daniel Goldhagen’s book “Hitler’s Willing Executioners: Ordinary Germans and the Holocaust” argued that the explanation for the genocide was acculturation — centuries of German conditioning by the single idea of “eliminationist anti-Semitism.” This cognitive determinism reduced Hitler to a mere catalyst who unleashed a sick society’s cultural latency.

This drew a rejoinder from Christopher Browning, author of “Ordinary Men”

(1992), a study of middle-aged German conscripts who became consenting participants in mass-murder police battalions in Poland. Browning noted that protracted socialization — centuries of conditioning — could not explain the Khmer Rouge’s murder of millions of Cambodians, or the Chinese’ slaughter of millions of Chinese during Mao’s Cultural Revolution.

What happened in those places proved the power of an idea — Marxism understood as a mandate to extirpate “false consciousness” — to legitimize, even mandate, mass murder. In “Black Earth: The Holocaust as History and Warning,” published in September, Snyder argues that the Holocaust’s origins have been hidden in plain sight, in ideas Hitler articulated in “Mein Kampf” and speeches.

Snyder presents a Hitler more troubling than a madman, a Hitler implementing the logic of a coherent worldview. His life was a singleminded response to an idea so radical that it rejected not only the entire tradition of political philosophy but the possibility of philosophy, which Hitler supplanted by zoology.

“In Hitler’s world,” Snyder writes, “the law of the jungle was the only law.”

The immutable structure of life casts the various human races as separate species. Only races are real and they are locked in mutual and unassuageable enmity, in Hitler’s mindset, because life is constant struggle over

scarcities — of land, food and other necessities.

One group, however, poisoned the planet with another idea. To Hitler, says Snyder, “It was the Jew who told humans that they were above other animals, and had the capacity to decide their future for themselves.” To Hitler, “Ethics as such was the error; the only morality was fidelity to race.” Hitler, who did not become a German citizen until 11 months before becoming Germany’s chancellor, was not a nationalist but a racialist who said “the highest goal of human beings” is not “the preservation of any given state or government, but the preservation of their kind.”

Now, assume, reasonably, that Iran’s pursuit of a potentially genocidal weapon will not be seriously impeded by parchment barriers such as the recent nuclear agreement.

And assume, prudently, that the Iranian regime means what it says about Jews and their “Zionist entity.”

Then apply Snyder’s warning: Ideas have consequences.

The idea of anti-Semitism is uniquely durable and remarkably multiform. It can express a mentality that is disconnected, as in Hitler’s case, from calculations of national interest.

Hence an anti-Semitic regime can be impervious to the logic of deterrence. Much, including Israel’s calculation of what military measures are necessary for its safety, depends on the nature of Iran’s anti-Semitism.

A Russian airliner that crashed in the Sinai Peninsula, killing all 224 people aboard, broke apart at high altitude and scattered mangled bodies and plane parts over a wide swath of Egyptian desert, Russia’s air transport chief said Sunday.

Alexander Neradko said it was too soon to determine what caused Saturday’s horrific crash of the Metrojet charter flight. The tragedy rocked the Russian nation, which marked a day of mourning Sunday with vigils, memorials and sorrow.

Neradko said the debris field of more than 6 square miles indicated “the plane broke down in midair at high altitude,” according to Russia’s Rossiya-24 TV. The Airbus A321’s data and cockpit voice recorders were recovered. Russian Transport Minister Maxim Sokolov said it was not immediately clear when or where the boxes would be studied.

The plane was en route from the Red Sea resort of Sharm ElSheikh in Egypt to St. Petersburg, Russia, when it disappeared from radar screens 23 minutes into the flight.

The Sinai in recent years has been the setting for sometimes brutal battles between Islamic insurgents and Egyptian troops.

Russian officials dismissed a claim of responsibility by an Egyptian militant group affiliated with the Islamic State in retalia-

Egyptian security adviser

Sayed Ghoniem told Daily News Egypt that the insurgents in the Sinai don’t have the radar tracking technology and anti-aircraft missile capabilities required to take down a plane at 30,000 feet.

Another Egyptian aviation official, Ayman al-Muqadem, said the pilot reported technical difficulties and sought to land at the nearest airport minutes before the crash, the Associated Press reported.

Most of the victims were Russian tourists. Sharm El-Sheikh is a popular tourism destination, known for its beaches and scuba diving. The youngest victim was 10-month-old Darina Gromova, according to a manifest released by the Russian Association of Tour Operators. v STORY CONTINUES ON 2B

Turkish voters handed a solid victory Sunday to President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s ruling party, with preliminary results showing his long-ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) clinching a majority in parliament.

With nearly all the votes counted, results from the staterun Anadolu news agency showed the AKP securing just under 50% of the national vote and projected to take at least 316 seats in the 550-seat parliament, surpassing the 276 needed to form a single-party administration.

Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu declared victory in a speech in his hometown of Konya, amid supporters chanting slogans.

“This victory is not ours (AKP), but that of our nation and our citizens,” Davutoglu said.

Sunday’s vote represents a significant shift from the June election, in which the AKP lost its governing majority for the first time in 13 years and could not form a coalition.

The party’s gamble to hold another election five months later appears to have paid off.

The election unfolded without major incidents, but the vote came amid mounting violence and deepening polarization as Turkey wages a war against Islamic State and Kurdish militants.

“It has become apparent in this election how important stability is to our nation and all of us should respect the attitude of the national will,” Erdogan said.

The head of Turkey’s election board, Sadi Guven, said the official results will be released in 11 or 12 days.

Sunday’s outcome marks a significant political victory for Erdogan, 61, who has been president since 2003 and has long sought to expand the powers of the presidency, a largely ceremonial office.

Fred Thompson left legacy from politics to Hollywood Former Tennessee senator dies at 73 Dave Boucher and Joey Garrison

The (Nashville) Tennessean

Fred Thompson, a former U.S. senator for Tennessee, GOP presidential candidate, Watergate attorney and Law and Order star, died Sunday.

Thompson, 73, died from after a recurrence of lymphoma, according to a statement issued by his family.

“It is with a heavy heart and a NASHVILLE

deep sense of grief that we share the passing of our brother, husband, father, and grandfather who died peacefully in Nashville surrounded by his family,” the statement reads.

As an attorney, his work helped lead to the resignation of President Richard Nixon. As a politician, he served the state of Tennessee for eight years as a conservative Republican in the U.S. Senate and briefly as a possible GOP presidential nominee. As an actor, he starred in some of the most prominent films and television series of his time.

er-than-life persona played a role in several key moments that shaped the U.S. and Tennessee political landscape.

“Very few people can light up the room the way Fred Thomp-

son did,” Sen. Lamar Alexander said in a statement Sunday. “He used his magic as a lawyer, actor, Watergate counsel, and United States senator to become one of our country’s most principled and effective public servants. He was my friend for nearly fifty years. I will miss him greatly.”

In 1994, Thompson earned a seat in the U.S. Senate, in the race to serve out the remainder of then-Vice President Al Gore’s term. He defeated current U.S. Rep. Jim Cooper, D-Nashville, by a wide margin. Thompson won re-election in 1996 by an equally wide margin but chose not to run in 2002.

He returned to acting, assuming his well-known role on Law and Order in 2002. But he started to again move away from acting and back toward politics in the run-up to the 2008 presidential election. Eventually announcing as a candidate, Thompson underwhelmed. He never placed higher than third in any of the early primary states, and dropped out of the race in late January 2008.

In his book Teaching the Pig to Dance: A Memoir of Growing Up and Second Chances, Thompson described his failed candidacy as the first time in his life he “couldn’t accomplish something I had set out to do.”

VOICES

Rabin a man who put peace within reach Michele Chabin @MicheleChabin1 Special for USA TODAY

JERUSALEM Twenty years after Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin was assassinated, it is still difficult to express the extent of the shock Israelis felt that November night.

The first shock was the assassination itself, the first of its kind in Israel’s history. That the murder was committed by an ultra-nationalist Orthodox Jew intent on derailing the Oslo Peace Accords seemed beyond comprehension. The trauma was all the more acute because the spirit at the rally had been so joyous, so uplifting.

Earlier that evening, Nov. 4, 1995, hundreds of thousands of us converged on downtown Tel Aviv. The large plaza, later renamed Rabin Square, wasn’t big enough to accommodate the crowd, which overflowed onto the side streets. I went to the rally because I sensed it would be a historic event and because I needed reassurance that peace was possible.

Two years after Rabin and Palestine Liberation Organization Chairman Yasser Arafat signed the 1993 Oslo Peace Accords, Palestinian terrorists were still blowing up buses.

Meanwhile Israel’s right wing was holding angry demonstrations that demonized Rabin, carrying posters showing him dressed in a Nazi uniform.

Armed with my press pass, I made my way up to the huge plaza that served as the stage that night. I managed to grab a spot a few yards from Rabin and the other dignitaries. In public,

EUROPEAN PRESSPHOTO AGENCY

An Israeli soldier lights a memorial candle at Yitzhak Rabin’s grave at Mount Herzl Military Cemetery on Thursday.

Rabin’s demeanor was always serious, even taciturn. Tonight, I noticed, he was relaxed and smiling. He seemed truly happy.

Looking out at the crowd it was easy to see why. Before us was a sea of humanity. It seemed as if everyone in the crowd — teenagers, their parents and grandparents — was waving Israeli flags or posters proclaiming “Peace.”

The event was a totally Tel Aviv experience. Fun and boisterous. It gave me hope.

“Allow me to say I am moved,” Rabin said. He went on to say that “peace entails difficulties, even pain. Israel knows no path devoid of pain. But the path of peace is preferable to the path of war. ... It is for the sake of our children and grandchildren that I want this government to exert every effort, exhaust every opportunity to promote and to reach a comprehensive peace.”

Eager to catch a bus to Jeru-

salem, I left the square. And a half-hour later I would learn the news that someone had shot the prime minister of Israel.

I attended Rabin’s funeral and marveled at the sheer number of heads of state who had flown in to do the same. I bit back tears when Rabin’s teenage granddaughter, Noa, tearfully said in her eulogy: “You were the column of fire that went ahead of the camp, alone, and we are so cold and sad.”

Rabin was just a man, flesh and blood, but the void he left behind has never been filled by any other leader, and the peace process has lost its way. The Israelis who trusted him did so because he had fought in every Israeli war but opted to pursue peace. Would he have succeeded? Perhaps not. We’ll never know.

Chabin, a Jerusalem-based journalist, has written about the Mideast for USA TODAY for two decades.

Bodies retrieved from crash site v CONTINUED FROM 1B

A picture of Darina gazing at a tarmac from inside the terminal in St. Petersburg days before the crash has become a symbol of the tragedy to Russians, according to RT news. Her parents, Aleksei, 27, and Tatiana, 26, also died in the crash.

At Pulkovo Airport in St. Petersburg, an impromptu memorial to the victims quickly grew.

Scores of flower arrangements, candles and stuffed animals — more than a dozen children were among the victims — adorn a section of the busy terminal.

The Egyptian Forensic Medicine Authority said most of the bodies had been recovered by midday Sunday. Some bodies were being flown back to Russia later Sunday.

The Vatican issued a statement Sunday saying Pope Francis was praying “for all who have died and for all who mourn their loss.”

British Prime Minister David Cameron called Russian President Vladimir Putin to express condolences on behalf of the British people.

Russia’s air-safety agency ordered Metrojet to suspend all

flights until at least Monday, but the company said it would continue operating its six remaining A321s if they passed inspections, the AP reported.

The German transportation ministry issued a “comprehensive warning” for airlines not to fly over parts of the Sinai Peninsula.

Lufthansa, Emirates and Air France were among airlines announcing they would stop flying over the area until the cause of the crash was determined.

A team of about 100 Russian investigators and support staff are working with Egyptian officials, Russia’s Emergencies Ministry said. The plane was designed in France and built in Germany, and both nations said they will be involved to help determine the cause of the catastrophe.

Flight Radar 24, a flight-tracking service, said the plane was descending at 6,000 feet per minute when it went off radar. The crash is believed to be the deadliest in the history of Russian aviation, surpassing a 1985 disaster in Uzbekistan in which 200 people died, the Russian-run news agency RIA says.

American businesses flood Cuban trade fair Alan Gomez @alangomez USA TODAY

HAVANA It was an unusual sight in this communist island that for decades was barred from importing most U.S. goods: an American-owned, American-made tractor, ready for sale.

The farm tractor was built by Alabama-based Cleber LLC, and its owners plan to display the red model at Cuba’s International Trade Fair starting Monday on the outskirts of Havana.

The annual fair will be the first one since the United States and Cuba announced in December they would re-establish diplomatic relations after a 50-year freeze, a change that opened trade opportunities and kick-started a rush of American companies hoping to get access to the longisolated island.

The tractor, which the owners call the “Oggún” in homage to the Afro-Cuban Santeria spirit of metal work, also provides a valuable lesson to companies hoping to be the first in their fields to get into Cuba.

Rather than simply offer to sell the American-made tractors to Cubans, Cleber proposes to shift construction from Paint Rock, Ala., to the island, using Cuban workers and Cuban materials, within five years.

“From the get-go, the Cubans have said they want investment in Cuba, they don’t want exports to Cuba,” said Saul Berenthal, 71, who co-founded Cleber just weeks after December’s announcement. “That gives us an advantage.”

This week’s trade fair will feature dozens of American companies exploring trade opportunities, from giants such as Cargill and Caterpillar to smaller enterprises such as Cleber and the Oregon-based Ninkasi Brewery Co. looking to sell its beer to the island.

The U.S. maintains an economic embargo on Cuba, a wide-ranging set of restrictions that only Congress can change. But since opening up relations with Cuba, President Obama has used his executive authority to expand the few trade openings the embargo allows.

Companies large and small ready to cash in after countries renewed ties

CLEBER LLC

The Treasury and Commerce departments have published regulations expanding the ability of U.S. businesses to sell food and medicine to Cuba, as well as equipment to improve the agricultural, medical, construction and telecommunications industries on the island.

That has led to so much interest that the U.S. Chamber of Commerce will host the first board meeting of its U.S.-Cuba Business Council near the trade fair this week.

Jodi Bond, the chamber’s vice president of the Americas, already made several trips to Cuba and held meetings with President Raúl Castro and his staff. She said the island still has a long way to catch up to the regulatory changes approved by the Obama administration.

She said the island’s banking system is not yet ready for full American investment, its dualcurrency system needs to end, and its foreign investment laws need work.

As American businesses wait for those changes, she said companies need to learn how to approach the Cuban government if they hope to sign any deals. Just

as Cleber is focusing on providing jobs to Cubans, Bond said it’s important for U.S. businesses to offer things like training for Cuba’s emerging entrepreneurial class.

She said 98% of the population is educated, but few have received formal business training.

“And who does the best entrepreneurial work in the world?

U.S. businesses,” Bond said. “So we have significant expertise in how entrepreneurs can grow a business and grow the island to a place of prosperity.”

Part of the promise of this week’s trade show is to teach American business owners how to work with Cuba, starting with something as simple as getting there.

Alex Procopio, a San Diegobased businessman who has sold food products to Cuba for more than a decade, said he had lined up eight U.S. companies to travel with him to the trade fair. After they struggled to book flights through a complicated charter process and reserve hotel rooms in a country that doesn’t accept U.S.-issued credit cards, he said seven companies dropped out.

“Cuba is still the forbidden fruit, it’s still that hard-to-get-to

Cuban officials unload a tractor from Alabamabased Cleber LLC at the Port of Mariel on Oct. 23. The tractor will go on display at the trade fair, which starts Monday.

island,” Procopio said. “That’s part of its charm.”

Scott Gilbert said the fair is also an opportunity for U.S. companies to meet Cuban government officials.

Gilbert is the attorney who helped broker the release of contractor Alan Gross, who was freed after five years in a Cuban prison as part of last year’s deal to begin normalizing relations with Cuba.

Gilbert is now advising companies about dealing with the Cubans.

“Americans who are used to coming into a country and moving things very quickly, they are being fairly assertive and aggressive and finding that doesn’t work well,” he said. “You’ve got to understand their situation, understand the dynamic and try to work within it to do the best that you can.”

Part of that learning process is finding out what the Cubans want.

Jim Moran, a former Democratic congressman from Virginia who now works at a D.C. law firm, recently visited Cuba with a group of former members of Congress. He said he felt a “tangible sense of expectations and aspirations” from people in Havana, but he learned how cautious government officials remain.

Since Castro took over as leader from his brother, Fidel, the island has allowed Cubans to own and sell their homes and cars for the first time, approved the sale of computers and cellphones to citizens and created a class of nearly 500,000 private entrepreneurs who are figuring out how to run their own businesses.

Despite those changes, Moran said Americans should not expect to walk into a free-wheeling capitalist culture.

“They don’t want to just be a satellite economy of the United States,” he said. “They’re very much aware of the inequalities here, how a small fraction of our population owns most of our wealth and earns most of our income. They’re frustrated with communism ... but they want everybody to count, and they don’t want the marginalization of large portions of their society.

“They’re looking for something in between,” Moran said.

Ryan vowing to go ‘on offense’ Immigration unlikely on speaker’s agenda David Jackson USA TODAY

New House Speaker Paul Ryan figures his honeymoon is already over.

It lasted “about 35 minutes,” he said on Fox News Sunday in one of a string of interviews he gave following his election to succeed John Boehner as House speaker on Thursday.

In the interviews Sunday, Ryan pledged to go back to “regular order” in the House — a reference to allowing committees more power in crafting legislation — and to focus on reducing federal spending and the debt.

The Wisconsin Republican GETTY IMAGES wants to create Paul Ryan wants a system in “regular order.” which all House GOP members — including conservative members of the “Freedom Caucus” — will get a chance to express their views on the floor.

“I think the legislative process has been too tightly controlled,” Ryan said on CNN’s State of the Union.

One thing not to expect, Ryan said: a comprehensive immigration plan, unless it is one that involves better law enforcement against illegal border crossings.

Citing President Obama’s executive action deferring deportation for many immigrants, Ryan told CBS’ Face the Nation that “it would be a ridiculous notion to try and work on an issue like this with a president we simply cannot trust on this issue.”

In his Fox News interview, Ryan also shot down Democratic calls for legislation guaranteeing paid family leave, saying that “I don’t think people asked me to be speaker so I can take more money from hard-working taxpayers, so I can create some new federal entitlement.”

The Republicans must push their own ideas on how to fix the economy, Ryan said, telling NBC’s Meet The Press that “I think we really have to be on offense and offer the country alternatives.”

Some conservatives still question his views, citing his support for free trade legislation and past backing of some form of legal status for immigrants who are in the country illegally.

OBAMA PUSHES FOR ‘SECOND CHANCES’

Will announce new measures to help offenders Gregory Korte USA TODAY

WASHINGTON Stephanie Luna pleaded guilty in June to conspiracy to traffic in methamphetamine — a charge that could have netted her up to 20 years in prison.

Instead, she’s getting drug treatment at a New Jersey halfway house, where President Obama will visit Monday in an effort to highlight efforts to reintegrate offenders back into the community rather than impose long, expensive prison sentences.

“Every year, we spend $80 billion in taxpayer dollars to keep people incarcerated,” Obama said in his weekly radio address Saturday. “Many are non-violent offenders serving unnecessarily long sentences. I believe we can disrupt the pipeline from underfunded schools to overcrowded jails. ... And I believe we can help those who have served their time

and earned a second chance get the support they need to become productive members of society.”

Obama will use his visit to Integrity House, a halfway house and drug-treatment center in Newark, to renew his call for Congress to pass a bipartisan bill reducing mandatory minimum sentences. But he’ll also announce a number of executive actions to help give more offenders a second chance.

Those include new measures making it easier for convicted criminals to work for the federal government, clarifying federal

policy on eligibility for subsidized housing for people with arrest records, and establishing a National Clean Slate Clearinghouse to help expunge old criminal records.

Many of those policies come out of Obama’s My Brother’s Keeper Task Force, which is tackling problems unique to minority young men. But they also reflect a renewed emphasis on criminal justice issues during what Obama has described as the “fourth quarter” of his presidency.

In the past few weeks and months, Obama has visited a federal prison in Oklahoma, highlighted the heroin epidemic in Charleston, W.Va., and addressed a police chief’s conference in Chicago.

Monday, he brings his campaign for a criminal justice overhaul to Integrity House, which began in 1968 as a residential drug-treatment facility and now gets 85% of its referrals through the courts.

Luna, 37, said she’s been sober for one year and two days and is working on a program that would allow her to reinstate her nursing license.

President Obama tours the El Reno Federal Correctional Institution in El Reno, Okla., on July 16. He was the first sitting president to visit a federal prison.

“I believe we can disrupt the pipeline from underfunded schools to overcrowded jails.”

Techie tykes: Kids going mobile at much earlier age At 4, many multitask, new survey shows Greg Toppo USA TODAY

Search on YouTube for the word “lullabye” and you’ll get about 236,000 results. A new study suggests why: About one in four parents are using a mobile device to put their young children to sleep.

The study, in Monday’s journal Pediatrics, finds “almost universal exposure” and use of mobile de-

The study in Pediatrics involved a survey of 289 parents of 350 children in an urban, low-income, minority community. It finds that smartphone ownership is high: 77% of parents surveyed said they had a smartphone.

What’s more surprising: Nearly 97% of parents said their children used mobile devices of some sort.

At age 4, the survey found, three-fourths of the kids owned their own mobile device, and about half multitasked, using more than one device at once.

Among other findings: u 20% of 1-year-olds own a tablet computer.

u 28% of 2-year-olds can navigate a mobile device with no help. u 28% of parents said they use a mobile device to put their children to sleep.

One of the more amazing findings, said Matilde Irigoyen, chair of the Department of Pediatric and Adolescent Medicine at Einstein Medical Center in Philadelphia and one of the lead researchers on the study, was how quickly children as young as 3 reach independent use of such devices. She was also very surprised to see such high numbers of kids owning their own mobile device. “That we didn’t expect.”

vices among young children. If upheld by further research, the findings could upend our understanding not only of how very young children consume media but of whether the “digital divide” between low-income and middle-class families exists anymore.

The findings are a bit higher than recent results from Common Sense Media, which found that in families with children ages 8 and younger, ownership of tablet devices such as iPads was 40% in 2013. It found that 75% of children had access to some type of “smart” mobile device at home.

French train hero Spencer Stone was promoted to staff sergeant at a ceremony at Travis Air Force Base in Sacramento.

After Stone and two friends received international acclaim for thwarting a terrorist attack on a Paris bound train in August, Air Force Chief of Staff Mark Welsh ordered that Stone be promoted to staff sergeant.

The Friday promotion, which took him from airman first class to staff sergeant, went into effect Sunday.

During the three-minute ceremony, Stone was first promoted to senior airman and, a minute later, promoted to staff sergeant.

“It is an honor to be promoted to staff sergeant,” Stone said in a statement provided by the Air Force. “And I am extremely thankful for the opportunity to lead my fellow Airmen.”

Stone, 23, is recovering from multiple stab wounds stemming from a recent late-night brawl in Sacramento.

Study finds it’s better to wait: ‘Employers don’t like blemishes’ Paul Davidson USA TODAY

After the recession, millions of unemployed workers faced a wrenching dilemma: hold out for a job as good as the one they left, or take a lower-level position, often outside their field.

A new study concludes it’s better to wait, at least for mid-level workers. It found employers seeking office workers were more likely to call unemployed applicants with relevant experience than those with similar backgrounds who recently took a lower-level position.

“We do seem to find that employers don’t like blemishes,” such as low-level jobs, on résu-

més, says Till von Wachter, the study’s co-author and a labor economics professor at UCLA. Von Wachter says the findings may also apply to workers at higher levels, whose resumes employers often read more carefully, though that’s not clear.

The study, by von Wachter and economists Henry Farber of Princeton and Dan Silverman of Arizona State University, will be published Monday by the National Bureau of Economic Research.

During and after the 2007-09 downturn, many of the 8.7 million laid-off Americans accepted offers in their field but several levels below their previous rank.

Many of the long-term unemployed took whatever jobs they could find, including low-level posts outside their industries.

In 2013 and 2014, the study authors sent out nearly 8,000 fake résumés from female applicants for about 2,400 openings for jobs

PALO ALTO, CALIF. Meg Whitman knows a thing or two about Herculean tasks.

After all, she did raise eBay from humble beginnings to help create an e-commerce powerhouse whose market capitalization is now $34 billion. She took on political legend Jerry Brown in an unsuccessful bid to become governor of California in 2010.

And she ditched a successful career in venture capital to attempt to return an American business icon, Hewlett-Packard, to glory.

She apparently saved the most difficult challenge for last: Split HP into two Fortune 50 companies, each $50 billion behemoths that separately serve the PC and enterprise markets while competing with the likes of IBM, Oracle, Dell-EMC and other tech giants.

On Sunday, it becomes official with the formation of Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE), which will concentrate on selling hardware like servers to businesses in need of building their data centers, and HP Inc., which will sell PCs and printers to businesses and consumers.

“The split will be good,” says Paul Teich, principal analyst at high-tech research and advisory firm Tirias Research. “It will allow them to focus on product development, infrastructure software and help redefine (PCs and printers). They can legitimize 3-D printing, for example.”

USA TODAY gained behindthe-scenes access to Whitman, who will run HPE, and other HP executives in the weeks leading up to the tech pioneer’s historic split. Last week, this reporter sat in on an executive briefing at HP headquarters here, where Whitman, Chief Technology Officer Martin Fink, Chief Information Officer Scott Spradley and others met with start-ups and Hewlett Packard Ventures.

As arduous struggles go, the split is a multibillion-dollar doozy. HP is leaking tens of thousands of jobs, locked in a decades-long pitched battle with other behemoths and straining to regain its cultural identity.

Some analysts have expressed skepticism about the split, announced a year ago. In a note, Bernstein Research warned of spinoff-related costs and weakened “synergies” between the two new companies.

Whitman, former vice president of strategic planning at Disney, who attained celeb status as eBay’s hard-charging CEO from 1998 to 2008, acknowledges the challenge of reversing a horrific stretch of big deals gone sour (such as HP’s troubled $10.3 billion acquisition of enterprise software company Autonomy in 2011) and a revolving door of CEOs before her (Carly Fiorina, Leo Apotheker, Mark Hurd).

“There were quite different strategies from the CEOs before me,” she says. “It’s like ice skating, where you’re in the middle of a group of people and being whipped around.”

How ambitious is this split?

Few in tech history have been at-

such as administrative or executive assistants and office associates in eight cities, including Chicago, Dallas and Sacramento.

The fictitious candidates all were unemployed college graduates with relevant experience, but some had recently taken a lowlevel job at a chain restaurant, big-box retail store or grocery store.

Nearly 10% of the jobless applicants were called by the employers, compared with 8.5% of those who had taken a stopgap job. The study concluded that “taking a low-level interim job significantly reduces the likelihood of receiving a call back.”

Von Wachter says employers who rejected those applicants may have viewed the interim job as a negative signal or done a cursory, possibly even automated, screening of their résumés.

Some staffing experts still say having a job, any job, beats the al-

ternative. “I think the employer ... says they’re continuing to work and continuing to develop their skills,” says John Reed, an executive at staffing firm Robert Half.

Paul Wolfe, head of human resources for Indeed, the online job posting board, says he looks only at whether applicants for jobs at his firm have relevant experience.

But he concedes that when the company combs through many résumés in search of a candidate with very specific experience, those with a current lower-level job “could get filtered out.”

Anne Colucci, 52, of White Plains, N.Y., a former chief financial officer for a credit union, recently took a job as an internal auditor at a bigger credit union at a third of the pay, partly to avoid gaps in her résumé. But she says it caused another credit union to rule her out for a CEO job.

HP shares, meanwhile, have declined 24% over the past year, closing at $26.96 on Friday. Under the split, investors will be given a stake in both HP Inc. (ticker symbol: HPQ) and Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE).

“We’re turning around an icon ... that lost its way,” Whitman, 59, says. “We’re trying to set the company up for the next chapter by laying the pipes and remodeling the house.”

Home improvement analogies aside, the market has changed, and HP needs to change with it, Whitman says. It also needs to regain the HP Way, principles that defined the 76-year-old company as a beacon of innovation, community service and progressive workplace.

“I’m more convinced than a year ago, when I decided to split the company,” Whitman says.

HP’s official reason to split is to streamline its business and create two smaller, simpler companies.

Like fellow tech giant IBM, HP has seen its sales sputter as the market for PCs decrease while new rivals such as Amazon dominate emerging enterprise technologies like cloud computing.

“There will be wide-reaching ramifications across the tech space for years to come from this transaction,” says Daniel Ives, an analyst at FBR Capital Markets & Co.

TRAVEL

AIRPORTS GO MOBILE TO BOOST OPERATIONS Charisse Jones USA TODAY

At Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport, there’s an app for, well, just about everything.

To ease passengers on their way, and resolve problems that pop up more quickly, the world’s fourth-busiest airport has introduced more than 40 mobile applications during the past two years. That means airport employees can find out that a parking garage is full, and then redirect passengers, simply by checking their mobile devices.

And fliers can find the nearest gourmet cafe — and whether they have enough time to eat there — by downloading an app.

“We’re bigger than the island of Manhattan, from tip to tail, so the way we can be efficient is with mobility,’’ says Stephen Shaffer, DFW’s chief information officer.

“The vision and mission is ‘let’s enable the employees to do their job anytime, anywhere.’’

A survey released last week by SITA, an air transport communications and IT solutions company, found that globally, 91% of airports are planning to offer a mobile app to help passengers navigate their terminals, while 83% said they would use such a platform to push out real-time notifications regarding local traffic and wait times in line.

But when it comes to mobile apps in the U.S. air travel space, it’s airlines who have taken the lead.

“There is no doubt the airlines have quickly figured out their passengers were moving to smartphones, to pads, and the app was a way to give passengers that opportunity to book tickets, file complaints (and) get updates,’’ says Blaise Waguespack, who teaches airport marketing at the Daytona Beach, Fla., campus of Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University.

Still, Waguespack says that many of the nation’s biggest airports want to get on board. “It is a discussion that is ongoing,’’ he says. An airport app could steer fliers to shops, services and eateries, for instance. And apps can be particularly useful to airport workers.

“You think about the size of a

Passengers use self-serve kiosks at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport while overhead electronic signs help ease traffic flow and congestion.

A touchscreen directory at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport helps passengers find their way.

DFW, and others of that size, like an LAX (or) Orlando” airport, Waguespack says. “As you’re trying to help employees keep the physical plant up and (deal with) safety and risk issues, (apps) would be a great help.’’

The massive roll-out of apps at DFW has resulted in more than 43,000 previously manual functions now being performed electronically, Shaffer says.

An asset management mobile

app, for instance, allows a worker who finds a broken light on a taxiway to open a repair ticket on their mobile device, and pinpoint the spot for the technician dispatched to fix it.

Similarly, an employee who finds a problem during an airfield inspection can input their report in the app, instead of having to take notes and then head back to their desktop computer.

Another app, one of DFW’s

first, helps passengers find their way around the airport. The next version, going live around Thanksgiving, will give even more specific information, such as “there’s a TGIFriday’s on the other side ... and you’ve got enough time to sit down for a meal,’’ Shaffer says.

The app already provides flight information and push notifications about available parking spots.

San Francisco International Airport is making similar moves.

In July 2014, it began piloting a navigation app to help the visually impaired in one of its terminals. Hundreds of Bluetooth beacons correlate to points of interest, from stores to restrooms, says airport spokesman Doug Yakel.

The app will audibly direct the visually impaired passenger, telling them the distance to their destination, he says. The goal is to eventually have such an app available to all passengers, throughout the airport.

“We want to use what’s available to really make the travel process easier and more pleasant for our guests,” Yakel says.

Q: When an airplane lands in fog on instruments, does the pilot have to be able to see the runway?

— Submitted by reader Carole Hayter, Monterey, Calif.

A: It depends on the type of airplane. There are some airplanes that are certified to land when the pilot cannot see the runway until a couple of seconds before touchdown. These highly automated airplanes use redundant computers to fly the approach, flare the airplane, land and track the center line.

The lowest visibility in which I landed was Seattle in thick fog — we did not see the runway until we were already flaring for touchdown. We had trained for this condition many times.

Q: Is visibility or dense fog a big problem for flights taking off ?

— Krishna, San Francisco A: All airports have visibility requirements for takeoff. The required visibility depends on the type of runway lighting and obstacles. The normal minimum visibility for takeoff at a major airport is 600 feet visibility on the runway. With very specialized equipment and training it can be reduced a bit below that, but it is rare.

Q: We were recently stuck at the airport in San Diego due to fog. Planes were unable to land and diverted to Ontario to refuel and wait for conditions to clear. Why can planes take off in the fog but are unable to land?

— Cymberle, San Antonio A: The visibility requirement for takeoff is less than for landing.

In San Diego, the pilots must see the runway prior to landing.

Some airports have very low visibility requirements for landing, but San Diego requires approximately one mile of visibility.

Some unfair travel charges make skies unfriendly ‘Single supplements’, airline and resort fees are viewed as bogus

HOW TO AVOID SOME TRAVEL FEES

Christopher Elliott Special for USA TODAY

Just a few weeks before Dennis Main’s European riverboat cruise, a disc in his spine ruptured, confining him to a wheelchair. “My surgeon warned me that any ON TRAVEL long travel or excesEVERY sive activity would MONDAY be dangerous,” he says.

Main’s options were bad and worse: He could pay another $6,000 to reschedule his trip later, or he could send his wife to Europe solo.

But oddly, that would cost more, too. “They want to charge her a $3,000 single supplement,” says Main, who works for the state of California.

A single supplement is one of the most universally hated fees in travel, but it’s just one of several customer-unfriendly policies the industry has embraced in order to squeeze more money from travelers. Single supplements are premiums of up to 100% of the cost of a cruise or tour charged to a solo tourist.

Main’s cruise line said it could have helped him if he had purchased travel insurance, but he says that felt like extortion.

“Time and again I heard, ‘We can’t — it’s our policy,’ ” he says.

Fortunately, his wife had charged part of the vacation on her credit card, which covered a portion of

Single supplements are premiums of as much as 100% of the cost of a cruise or tour charged to a solo tourist. his cancellation fee. He also received a partial refund from the cruise line.

“Single supplements are one of the last bastions of discrimination,” says Diane Lee, a frequent traveler and author from Adelaide, Australia. “It’s also a stupid and short-sighted business practice, considering how many solo travelers there are now.”

Travel companies say single supplements are necessary because their prices are based on double occupancy. When people like Main’s wife or Lee have a cabin to themselves, the cruise line is forfeiting revenue for other activities like restaurants or bars.

The fee is bogus, as far as this consumer advocate is concerned.

In Main’s case, at least, if the cruise line had resold his cabin, it should have offered him a full refund instead of pocketing the money.

But it’s not the only unfair fee.

Another is the “fuel surcharge” added to the price of airline tickets. It’s an annoyance not just

to air travelers, but also for tour operators like smarTours. “The widespread manipulation of the fuel surcharge by airlines is unfair and harmful to travelers,” says Greg Geronemus, smarTours’ co-CEO. For years, as oil prices surged, airlines insisted that fuel surcharges were beyond their control and an accurate reflection of the rising commodity cost. “Now that oil has dropped by more than 50% over the last 15 months, we have not seen anything close to a proportional drop in fuel surcharges,” Geronemus says. “In fact, many airlines have not decreased their fuel surcharges whatsoever.”

Travelers believe airlines are keeping the difference between the actual fuel costs and the artificially high surcharge. What’s the solution? If airlines simply reported their actual fuel costs for each flight, as opposed to adding an arbitrary fuel surcharge, that would be a good start, Geronemus says. But how about airlines

uSingle supplement: Some cruise lines, such as Norwegian and P&O, offer single cabins. And some tour operators (like Gate 1 and Classic Journeys) charge modest single supplements. If you’re thinking of traveling alone, ask before you make your reservation. uResort fees: Don’t stay at a hotel with resort fees. It’s the only way to send a message that you don’t tolerate these misrepresentations. If you see a mandatory resort fee when you’re making a reservation, close out your session immediately and book another property. uFuel surcharges: Fortunately, these fees must be included in the price of your ticket. But if you see an airline with high fuel surcharges in a time of lower oil prices, you may want to seek one that doesn’t. uNon-refundable tickets: Southwest Airlines has some of the most passenger-friendly fares and fees when it comes to changes. It doesn’t charge any change fees, and its flexible fares are often priced reasonably (though not always).

just fold the cost of fuel into the fare? Isn’t fuel part of the cost of running an airline?

While we’re on the subject of airlines, let’s talk about the elephant in the room: non-refundable airline tickets. And yes, they

are usually totally non-refundable, even if you get sick, have jury duty or a close relative dies.

Airlines claim they offer “options” for travelers who want refundable tickets. Just buy a flexible ticket, which costs three to four times more than a non-refundable one.

That’s not only impractical, but it also insults our intelligence.

Here’s what makes sense to air travelers: Flexible, refundable tickets priced at a modest and reasonable premium. Oh, and while you’re at it, why not refund tickets when you resell the seat?

Enough with the double-dipping, airlines.

Which brings us to perhaps the most unfair fee of all: the mandatory hotel resort fee. You pull up a rate online for a bargain hotel in Las Vegas, only to find that you have to pay an extra $20 a night as a “resort” fee. It’s even worse than the airline fuel surcharge because, for the moment, it doesn’t have to be revealed until just before you’re ready to book a hotel. “It’s a lack of transparency,” says Linda Kundell, a publicspeaking coach from New York who has represented many travel companies as a publicist.

The solution is super easy. The government should require hotels to quote a full rate up front.

But the Federal Trade Commission, which is tasked with enforcing how hotels advertise their prices, has been reluctant to require such disclosure, saying it would exceed its mandate. Most travelers would disagree, but then again, most travelers are not staff attorneys who work for the federal government.

Joy, Sadness, Fear, Anger and Disgust weren’t the only emotions seeking starring roles in Pixar’s Inside Out. During the lengthy filmmaking process for the animated journey into the mind of Riley, an 11-yearold girl, many more emotions fought for roles. Irritation, Pride, Envy, Greed, Gloom, Despair, Depression and even Love were incorporated but didn’t make the final cut.

“When the film is done, you look at the characters and go, ‘Of course, these are the emotions,’ ” says director Pete Docter of Inside Out, which has made more than $355 million at the box office since June. “But we tried a lot of things before we got to where we ended on the screen.”

Many of the missing emotions are being revealed in a special Inside Out Blu-ray/DVD edition (available Tuesday at Target).

When filmmakers started intensive research in late 2009 to create the characters, they discovered a wide disparity in the scientific community about how many emotions exist, Docter says.

“We thought that this is science; there is going to be one correct answer to the number of emotions,” Docter says. “But some (scientists) said 17, another said four. A couple of scientists said zero, that emotions are sort of an illusion. There was no real unity. That was good because we were able to decide for ourselves.”

The list ran as high as 26 before the whittling began. Schadenfreude (the enjoyment that comes from seeing others’ troubles) was a contender, along with Ennui (the feeling of listlessness or dissatisfaction). Pride and Hope stayed the longest before getting the ax.

Ultimately, the list was streamlined for story simplicity and because key character traits were already embodied in the final five.

At one point, Docter had names for the emotions — for example, Anger was Ira and

“Saying, ‘Hey, Anger, come here!’ just seemed really weird to me at first. My thought was to be clever about it,” Docter says. “We tried that for a while, but I was wrong. We backed off it.”

“When we heard the cast all recorded, it was like, ‘This works,’ ” says producer Jonas Rivera. “It just felt right to us.”

It’s a rite of fall TV: the culling of the herd.

In a lackluster season with few new hits, network TV series are learning their fates. Firstyear shows usually receive 13episode commitments; in success, they are given “back-nine” orders in October or November to continue production for a full season of 22.

Some freshmen series have done well enough during the opening weeks of the new season to earn such extensions: CBS’ Life in Pieces and Limitless, NBC’s Blindspot, ABC’s Quantico and Fox’s Rosewood. Fox comedies Grandfathered and The Grinder and ABC’s Dr. Ken also won full seasons (despite low ratings) thanks to combinations of tough time periods, network ownership or faith in the shows’ creative prospects. ABC’s The Muppets will get three more episodes for a total of 16.

The new batch shows evidence

CBS’ Limitless, starring Jennifer Carpenter and Jake McDorman, hasn’t reached its limit yet: It’s been extended.

of continued ratings erosion plaguing broadcasters, even when seven-day DVR viewing is factored in. Until last week, fall’s top-rated newcomer was Blindspot with 12.5 million viewers, compared with last fall’s standout, CBS’ Scorpion, which was averaging 15.2 million at this time last fall. Just two others are managing 10 million or more. And every network has shed viewers this season.

But in a sign of the more patient times, none of the 21 new series on the five broadcast net-

works has been canceled. But it’s clear which of them won’t last much longer, in less abrupt exits: ABC’s Blood & Oil and Fox’s Minority Report had their initial 13episode commitments cut to 10, and NBC’s The Player’s went from 13 to nine; all three series will be gone by December. NBC comedy Truth Be Told also was cut to 10 episodes, but it’s unlikely all of them will air. And don’t look for Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, CW’s lowest-rated series, to continue past its first 13.

Fox’s Scream Queens, along with NBC’s Heroes Reborn and variety series Best Time Ever With Neil Patrick Harris, were dubbed “limited” series designed to last only through fall. .

That leaves a handful of series waiting for word on their futures: CBS’ Supergirl premiered well last week, though it’s too soon to measure its longevity, while ABC’s Wicked City was DOA against the World Series. CBS medical series Code Black is struggling, though NBC’s own try at the genre, spinoff Chicago Med, won’t even premiere until Nov. 17.

Yet the networks already have begun scheduling midseason replacements: Jennifer Lopez cop drama Shades of Blue will sub for The Player on Thursdays starting in January.

WORLD SERIES

CROWNING GLORY!

David J. Phillip/AP Photo

KANSAS CITY CATCHER DREW BUTERA, LEFT, AND CLOSER WADE DAVIS CELEBRATE the Royals’ 7-2, World Series-clinching victory over the New York Mets on Sunday in New York.

Royals close out first Series title since 1985 New York (ap) — Crown ‘em, Kansas City!

One agonizing step from ecstasy last season, this time the Royals reign after their latest incredible comeback and a go-ahead hit from maybe the most unlikely player in uniform.

Christian Colon singled

home the tiebreaking run in the 12th inning and those bound-and-determined Royals rallied one more time to beat the New York Mets 7-2 in 12 innings early Monday for their first World Series championship since 1985 and second overall.

Down two runs in the ninth,

Kansas City fought back in Game 5 against two of the top arms on the pitching-rich Mets: Matt Harvey and Jeurys Familia. And the Royals did it not with home run power but instead a daring dash from Eric Hosmer, a three-run double by Lorenzo Cain, a couple of crucial stolen bases.

Consistent contact, keep the line moving.

And that’s how Series MVP Salvador Perez and the Royals became the first team since the 2002 Angels to come from behind in all four World Series wins, according to STATS. That’s how they washed away the

bitter taste of last year’s Game 7 loss at home to San Francisco, an October heartbreak that drove them to their singular focus all season.

Never waver.

Win it all this time.

Youngsters propel Kansas women

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

When new Kansas University women’s basketball coach Brandon Schneider started two freshmen and relied on two more college rookies off the bench Sunday afternoon in his team’s exhibition opener, he understood his debut wouldn’t go flawlessly.

But the positives far out-

weighed the negatives in an 80-54 victory over Pittsburg State at Allen Fieldhouse, as first-year players contributed in major ways, and a pair of veterans carried the scoring load.

Sophomore point guard Lauren Aldridge nailed four of eight three-pointers on her way to a game-high 21 points, while junior post player Caelynn ManningAllen went for a double-

double, with 12 points and 11 rebounds.

The freshmen Jayhawks didn’t wait long to prove they could make an impact, too. After KU fell behind early, 6-2, in the first quarter, three newcomers provided baskets in a 1:15 stretch that put Kansas ahead for good.

Reserve freshman forward Tyler Johnson converted a layup, and first-year starting guards Asia Robertson and

Kylee Kopatich nailed backto-back three-pointers.

Kopatich, a 5-foot-10 scoring guard from Olathe South, played a team-leading 34 minutes, hit both of her three-pointers and scored eight points. Robertson, a 5-7 freshman point guard from San Francisco, scored seven, while adding five rebounds and five

Top four in AP football poll unchanged

By Eric Olson AP College Football Writer

Ohio State, Baylor, Clemson and LSU remain the top four teams in the Associated Press Top 25 as the College Football Playoff selection committee prepares its first rankings.

There was little change in the poll released Sunday with

five of top 10 teams having an open date.

The first selection committee top 25 will be released Tuesday night. The pairings for the four-team College Football Playoff will be revealed Dec. 6.

It’s anyone’s guess how the playoff committee will line up the teams, and with many of the biggest games of the season yet to be played, there are

Martinsville, Va. — Jeff Gordon earned an automatic berth in NASCAR’s championship race — where he’ll try to win a fifth title in his final season — with a victory Sunday at Martinsville Speedway.

He has Matt Kenseth to thank for his spot in the final four of the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship.

Kenseth intentionally wrecked Joey Logano — payback from an incident three races ago — to take the race leader out with 47 laps remaining. Logano had the dominant car, and Kenseth, who was in an earlier wreck with Brad Keselowski, came back on the track 10 laps down and drove Logano into the wall.

Logano had led 207 of the 500 laps and was furious. His father, Tom, had to be pushed into the team hauler by the crew chief as the crowd cheered wildly in support of Kenseth.

Hawaii fires Chow Honolulu — Norm Chow was fired as Hawaii’s football coach Sunday, a day after the Rainbow Warriors dropped to 2-7 with a 58-7 home loss to Air Force.

Athletic director David Matlin said Chris Naeole will finish the season as interim head coach.

The 69-year-old Chow was 10-36 overall and 4-25 in the Mountain West Conference in four seasons at Hawaii. The Rainbow Warriors are 0-5 this season in the Mountain West.

Hawks 94, Hornets 92 Charlotte, N.C. — Kent Bazemore scored 20 points, Al Horford added 16 points and 12 rebounds and Atlanta held on to beat Charlotte for the second time in three days on Sunday.

The Hornets had a chance to tie the game at the buzzer, but Kemba Walker’s 17-footer from the left wing hit the back rim and bounced out. Walker also missed a 3-pointer in the final seconds of Charlotte’s 97-94 loss to Atlanta on Friday night.

Gritty Perez named Series MVP

KANSAS CITY CATCHER SALVADOR PEREZ — THE WORLD SERIES MVP — TALKS to pitcher Edinson Volquez during the sixth inning of Game 5 of World Series on Sunday in New York.

New York (ap) — Salvador Perez took foul balls off his mask, collarbone and fingers, and the Kansas City catcher kept on bouncing back, like some indestructible test dummy.

No bruise was too painful.

No ache was too much to overcome.

Not only did he anchor the pitching staff, he hit .364 (8-for-22) and was voted the Most Valuable Player in the Royals’ fivegame World Series win over the New York Mets that culminated in a 7-2, 12-inning victory early Monday morning.

“Now I don’t feel pain.

I don’t feel nothing,” he said.

Last year against San Francisco, Perez hit a foul pop to Pablo Sandoval for the Series’ final out, with the potential tying run at third.

This year, his grounder drove in the tying run as Kansas City rallied for two runs in the ninth inning.

Then he singled leading off the 12th, setting up

KANSAS CITY’S LORENZO CAIN IS SAFE AFTER STEALING SECOND BASE in the first inning. pinch-runner Jarrod Dyson to score the go-ahead run on pinch-hitter Christian Colon’s single.

Perez set a major league record for most innings caught over a two-year span since 1914 with 2,724, according to STATS, topping the 2,704 for the Chicago Cubs’ Randy Hundley in 196768. In addition, Perez has caught 38 spring training innings over the past two

years plus 36 innings during the major league AllStars’ 2014 postseason tour of Japan.

“He’s a horse,” Mets manager Terry Collins said Sunday. “Put up the offensive numbers, when you’re catching 150 a year, that’s impressive. I mean, I know he’s a big, strong guy, but that big body gets beat up. He’s had some foul tips already in the first part of this Series

that you wonder if he’s coming back out and yet he does. He’s a horse.”

He took a foul tip off the mask in Game 4 of the AL Division Series, and in Game 4 of the World Series he was staggered by a tip off his collarbone.

The only reason he wasn’t on the field for Wade Davis’ final pitch was Kansas City’s need to pinch run for him when he singled to start the title-winning rally.

Harvey, Mets waste another late lead New York (ap) — Matt Harvey demanded the ball in the ninth inning of the Mets’ biggest game in years, the biggest start of his career.

He got it. And once again in the World Series, Harvey did not get the result he hoped for.

This time the Dark Knight had plenty of help in wasting a lead, and New York’s season came to a sudden end early Monday with a 7-2, 12-inning loss to the Kansas City Royals in Game 5 of the best-of-seven series.

Daniel Murphy made another key error. Jeurys Familia blew his third save chance, and the New York bats were silent as their surprising late-season run to their first postseason since 2006 was quashed by the crisper Royals.

With fans chanting his name even before he took the mound for the first pitch, the 26-yearold Harvey looked as if he was determined to set aside all the controversy that seemed to follow him this season, his first after having Tommy John surgery in late 2013.

No more September talk about innings limits that rankled the Mets’ front office and fans, his social life or Instagram account.

Harvey was determined to carry his teammates back to Kansas City for Game 6 after failing to hold a two-run lead in the sixth in the Series opener.

He gave up just four singles in the first eight innings, and used all his pitches to strike out the Royals’ stingy lineup nine times, including the side in the fourth and three more in the fifth — around a walk.

After striking out Mike Moustakas with a 98 mph fastball to end the fourth, he pumped his fist and gave a couple of euphoric shouts as he stomped off the mound.

Following Alex Rios’ groundout to end the seventh, Harvey threw his hands in the air and implored his teammates, “Let’s Go!”

KANSAS CITY’S ERIC HOSMER IS CONGRATULATED after scoring during the ninth inning of Game 5 of the World Series. The Royals beat the Mets, 7-2, to win the Series, 4 games to 1, on Sunday in New York.

Royals CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1C

Now, this group of homegrown favorites that turned around a floundering franchise, Mike Moustakas and Alex Gordon and Hosmer, can take their place in Royals history alongside George Brett, Willie Wilson, Bret Saberhagen and those champs from 30 years ago.

With no margin for error, Harvey put the Mets’ last hope in his hands and hung on as long as he could. After eight scoreless innings, he pushed to pitch the ninth and finally faltered.

New York slugger Yoenis Cespedes exited with knee pain but Curtis Granderson hit a leadoff homer, his third long ball of the Series, and the Mets managed a 2-0 lead against heavy-hearted Royals starter Edinson Volquez, pitching one day after returning from his father’s funeral.

But for these resilient Royals, no deficit is too large, no time in the game too late.

Perez looped a leadoff single in the 12th off losing pitcher Addison Reed, and pinch-runner Jarrod Dyson stole second. One out later, Colon stepped in as a pinch-hitter for

KANSAS CITY’S CHRISTIAN COLON HITS THE GAME-WINNING RBI SINGLE in the 12th inning of the Royals’ World Seriesclinching, 7-2 victory over the Mets on Sunday in New York. his first plate appearance since the regular-season finale Oct. 4.

Hardly rusty, he lined a 1-2 pitch into left-center and pounded his chest at first base. Alcides Escobar added an RBI double, and Cain’s bases-loaded double off Bartolo Colon broke it open.

All that was left was for Wade Davis to close it out. He threw a called third strike past Wilmer Flores to end it and tossed his glove high in the air as

the Royals rushed toward the mound to celebrate.

Hundreds of Royals fans dressed in blue descended toward the Kansas City dugout to cheer their champs. Perez received his MVP award after the catcher hit .364.

Later, the Mets came back onto the field to salute a smaller pocket of fans who stuck around for one last chant of “Let’s go, Mets!”

Fired up all night, Harvey was at 102 pitches fol-

lowing a 1-2-3 eighth and stalked briskly back to the dugout with one purpose in mind. There, cameras caught him telling manager Terry Collins — in no uncertain terms — he was going back out for the ninth.

Collins relented, and a huge roar went up as Harvey bounded off the bench and sprinted to the mound, looking for his second complete game in the majors. But he walked Cain on a full-count slider, and Hosmer hit an RBI double.

Harvey was pulled for closer Familia, and Hosmer advanced on Moustakas’ groundout to the right side.

So up stepped Perez with the potential tying run 90 feet away, same as last year when he fouled out against Giants ace Madison Bumgarner to end the World Series.

This time, Perez got jammed and hit a slow grounder to third baseman David Wright, who froze Hosmer with a glance and threw across the diamond for the second out.

Hosmer, however, bolted for the plate when Wright released the ball. First baseman Lucas Duda fired wide of catcher Travis d’Arnaud — a good throw probably would have been in time — and Hosmer made a headfirst dive home with the tying run.

NFL ROUNDUP

Chiefs run wild, defeat Lions 45-10 The Associated Press

Chiefs 45, Lions 10 London — When Alex Smith had no options left, he ran. And he ran far.

The Kansas City quarterback carried the ball five times and gained 78 yards, including a careerhigh 49-yard scramble in the second quarter that set up his 12-yard touchdown run.

With a comfortable lead in hand, Smith settled into his usual role, throwing for 145 yards and a pair of touchdowns to lead the Chiefs to a 45-10 victory over the Detroit Lions at Wembley Stadium in the last of three regular-season NFL games in London.

“We got a lot of guys with a lot of different strengths,” Smith said.

“We can present a lot to a defense. It’s hard for them to defend.”

De’Anthony Thomas, Charcandrick West and Spencer Ware also rushed for touchdowns — the first time the Chiefs had four different players rush for scores in the same game since 1960.

Thomas ended up with 100 total yards, while West ran for 97. Travis Kelce and Jeremy Maclin caught the two TD passes in the second half.

“Alex was putting the ball on the money today and Charcandrick was running north,” said Kelce, who had six receptions for 49 yards.

The Chiefs (3-5) were at Wembley for the first time, while the Lions (17) played in London for the second straight season.

The Lions were playing for the first time since offensive coordinator Jim Bob Cooter took over for the fired Joe Lombardi.

And although the offense got moving on the opening possession, it stalled horribly after that.

Matthew Stafford threw for 217 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions. Also, Calvin Johnson had 85 receiving yards, while Joique Bell ran for 56. But after the Lions took a 3-0 lead on 35-yard field goal from Matt Prater, Detroit was hapless with the ball.

“Not a good outing, obviously. An understatement,” Lions coach Jim Caldwell said. “We ran the ball decently early on, but we reached the point where we wouldn’t be able to regain lost ground quickly enough to keep running.”

The Kansas City pass rush posed huge problems for the Lions, and Stafford’s two interceptions resulted in 10 points going the other way. He was sacked six times, including on fourth-andeight near midfield early in the fourth quarter while trailing 31-3.

KU puts out positive vibe If Pittsburg State’s Shelby Lopez were any more alone, she would have been on an island.

She had plenty of time to measure her three-point shot and make it.

Bam, just like that, firstyear Kansas University women’s basketball coach Brandon Schneider called a 30-second timeout and let his players have it. Never mind that the bucket cut KU’s lead to 22 points with 1:42 left in the fourth quarter. The coach had to let them know that sort of inattentive, lackadaisical play doesn’t cut it.

For all but a few minutes of an 80-54 exhibition game victory Sunday in Allen Fieldhouse, the Jayhawks played inspired basketball and had brought out the same from an entertained crowd.

Where had all the long faces gone? The yawns?

What happened to the zombies yearning to watch something more interesting, like maybe C-SPAN? No need to send out a search party for joy. It was written all over the players.

KU-PSU exhibition Wednesday

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Kansas University’s exhibition basketball opener against Pittsburg State will be held at 7 p.m. Wednesday, as originally planned, in Allen Fieldhouse.

The Kansas City Royals’ Game Five victory over the New York Mets on Sunday night wrapped up the World Series title, means there’s no potential Game Seven conflict Wednesday.

KU on Friday announced plans to push its exhibition game to Thursday if the World Series returned to KC this week.

It’s probably good news for the Jayhawks, considering coach Bill Self said over the weekend his squad appeared stale at practice and looked like a team that definitely wanted a change of pace, as in a game. l

Allen visits Houston: Jarrett Allen, a 6-foot9 senior forward from St. Stephens Episcopal School in Austin, Texas, who is ranked No. 20 in the recruiting Class of 2016 by Rivals.com, made an official visit to University of Houston last weekend.

He has also made trips to Notre Dame and KU and will visit Kentucky in two weeks. Also on his list: Indiana, Kansas State, North Carolina and Texas.

“It was good, I had a lot of fun and learned a lot about the school (Houston),” Allen told Zagsblog.com. “I really liked the feel of the school community-wise, the coaching staff, and the new facilities that they are building.”

Of his visit to KU, Allen told Zagsblog: “Kansas was also a very good visit. I’m considering (KU) J-W Staff Reports just as much as the other Wichita — Veritas schools.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY FRESHMEN KYLEE KOPATICH (33) AND TYLER JOHNSON (55) force Pittsburg State sophomore Mikaela Burgess to lose the ball during the Jayhawks’ 80-54 exhibition victory on Sunday in Allen Fieldhouse.

“

Until someone disproves this statement, I think we’re the youngest team in the country.”

— KU coach Brandon Schneider

“Until someone disproves this statement, I think we’re the youngest team in the country,” he said.

To further his point, Schneider pointed to how KU also relied on Aldridge, sophomores Chayla Cheadle (nine points, six rebounds) and sophomore post player Lorraine Enabulele (two points, two boards).

“Sophomores aren’t old,” he added. “I think there’s gonna be some times where we make some mistakes that, quite frankly, are from a lack of experience. But hopefully we’re intelligent enough to learn from those, whether it be in-game or in film session the next day.”

The Jayhawks return to Allen Fieldhouse next Sunday for their final exhibition, against Schneider’s former program, Emporia State.

KU women assists. Johnson, a 6-2 post player from Leavenworth, shot 3-for-3, for six points.

A pace-changing, driving 5-8 point guard from Federal Way, Washington, Jayde Christopher came off the bench to score three points and dish four assists in 14 minutes.

Schneider said Christopher, who showed off her ability to create layups for teammates, isn’t yet able to run all the plays the Jayhawks use when Aldridge is on the floor.

Still, he likes how dynamic the youngster is with the ball.

“A lot of it with Jayde is just so get it in the lane — as fast as you can,” Schneider said. “Because she has a lot of confidence in that.”

Kopatich said all of KU’s first-year players believe in themselves — and one another — because they’ve quickly built trust in Schneider, as have the returning Jayhawks, who previously played for Bonnie Henrickson.

“If you think about it, a lot of us, we really all are freshmen,” Kopatich said.

“With the new coaching staff coming in, we’re all adjusting. … Everything is new.”

Aldridge agreed to some extent and said the true first-year players had some promising moments in the preseason tune-up.

“They’ve been proving themselves, very much so, in practice,” Aldridge said. “I think it’s really cool, because each of them brings something different to the team that makes us better.”

Schneider knows he’ll need inexperienced players to find ways to chip in all season long.
